Uneasy
Chapter 33, Training
, Why is a girl masked and sneaking in the dark. Seeing that his actions were discovered, An Lu stood up straight and said generously.
"Isn't everyone in my line of work like this? You are a brave little maid, and you didn't escape." The woman said with interest.
"Fleeing wool, you think I'm deaf? Everyone knows that you have accomplices in the fights and killings outside." An Lu said angrily.
"Hey, there are other people out there who want to kill you. Don't blame the old lady for this." Unexpectedly, the woman became angry and expressed her anger at An Lu's slander.
"Why is the Empress so hated?" An Lu pressed softly.
"Why, you also want to murder Ben Gong?" Bu Qinyan's cool voice came. Although she had stood up, her limbs still had no strength.
"Your Majesty, don't slander me!" An Lu became angry when he heard this.
"When death is approaching, you two, uh, the three girls are still moaning!" A rough voice came, and another strong man walked outside the tent, he was the boss of the group outside.Halfway through the speech, seeing the uninvited guest in the camp, the words of the strong man froze for a moment.
"Tsk, another business grabber!" The woman was a little angry.
"I'm here to take the queen's life today, you and you..." He pointed at An Lu and the woman with a big knife, and continued:
"You can get out, I can still let you live."
"Heh." The woman chuckled, two daggers appeared in her hands, and waved in front of the big man:
"Don't make a mistake, there is a first come first, first come first, and the empress is the one I met first."
"These things still come first and then come first? Naturally, whoever gets the head counts." The big man understood the woman's intention as soon as he heard it, and said disdainfully.
"Then each depends on his ability." After the woman finished speaking, she rushed to Bu Qinyan first.
An Lu's long sword was out of its sheath long ago, and it stood in front of Bu Qinyan, blocking the woman's dagger.However, when the long sword and dagger collided, the weakness of the arm was revealed.
"Damn it!" Seeing that the woman had seized the opportunity, the strong man immediately stepped forward with a knife.
"You gang up on bullying my maid, and I only have one life, how do you want to divide it?" Bu Qinyan sat on the edge of the bed and remained motionless, ignoring the shadow of swords and swords.
"That's right!" The strong man suddenly realized, and suddenly swung his knife to attack the woman.
"Fuck you stupid bastard, the queen is still fine now, what are you thinking so much about!" The woman was exhausted.
"You're stupid, this maid is as good as a three-legged cat, I can kill her in a matter of minutes after I clean you up." The strong man was not stupid, and immediately retorted.
Although he was right, An Lu should be happy in the current situation, but he was offended!
However, in the face of life and death, face aside, An Lu immediately chimed in and said:
"That's right, brother, you are very brave. A small person like me is no match for you. You can kill this big sister first, and then kill me. It's easy!"
Seeing An Lu's "flexible and stretchable" temperament, Bu Qinyan couldn't help laughing, and pressed her lips tightly to prevent the laughter from overflowing.
The woman was already pissed off by the strong man, but when she heard that An Lu was still playing tricks, she turned to An Lu mercilessly with the dagger in her hand.An Lu hurriedly parried, but her kung fu was poor, and the medicine was still there, so her arm was still scratched.
"Brother, you see that I can be injured casually, so you don't have to worry about me, and driving the opponent away is the right way!" An Lu raised his injured arm in front of the strong man.
Bu Qinyan: "..."
woman:"…"
Strong man: "..."
Although, what she said is very reasonable, what should I do?
"Why don't we join forces to kill this maid, and then fight to the death?" The woman was about to be laughed out of anger.
"I think she's right." The strong man said, then turned to An Lu and said:
"You take good care of your empress, don't let her succeed."
An Lu:? ? ?Good man, is there any?
The strong man is not stupid, he has his own thinking.The woman in front of him is the one with the strongest combat power now, if he kills her, then killing the queen will be a sure thing.He was a little worried that he would be plotted against when he confronted the woman alone, but now that An Lu is watching, the chance of this is much less, because...
"Hey, brother, be careful, she's going to sneak attack!"
"No, big sister, you don't talk about martial arts, if you can't beat me, you will use medicine; if you can't beat big brother, you will use hidden weapons!"
"By the way, what's your name, Miss?"
The woman's head was buzzing from the noise of An Lu's voice, let alone plotting, it was not easy to concentrate on fighting the enemy.
"Shut up!" the woman yelled.
"If you say shut up, I'll shut up. Wouldn't it be embarrassing for me?" An Lu stiffened her neck and said. In fact, her palms were sweating, and she looked at the queen behind her from time to time, praying in her heart that she would quickly recover her fighting power.
"An Lu, be careful!"
"Hiss!" An Lu gritted his teeth, and a dagger was thrust into her arm shining brightly. The woman had a headache just now from her noise, so she was distracted and threw a dagger to kill An Lu.
Hearing the Queen's reminder, An Lu subconsciously turned sideways to dodge, but she couldn't dodge at all according to her current mobility, so she took a hard hit.
"The empress is too busy to take care of herself, and she is meddling in her own business!" The woman was dissatisfied, but it was a pity that she was pestered by a strong man, so she couldn't be distracted at all.The distraction just now almost hurt her.
"Oh." Buqinyan sneered, and took out a sword from under the pillow. She thought it was impossible for her to relax her vigilance in such an environment as hunting.
"What about you?" The woman was surprised.
"Your medicine is really good, but it's a pity that you talk too much nonsense, and the properties of this medicine have been broken down."
After Buqinyan joined the battlefield, the two instantly unified their target and joined forces to attack Buqinyan.An Lu was a little panicked, but she knew that her three-legged kung fu would not be able to help her.In a hurry, she fumbled around and touched the spice in her arms.
Although Buqinyan's strength was reduced by the medicine, it should not be underestimated. The strong man and the woman were all focused on fighting with Buqinyan, and they didn't notice the sneaky An Lu for a while.
"Hold your breath and close your eyes!" An Lu said quickly, out of trust in An Lu, Bu Qinyan quickly followed suit.
"Damn!" The strong man and the woman cursed at the same time.
"what!"
"Walk."
In the confusion, Bu Qinyan cut open the tent with a sword and led An Lu out.Although she had detoxified part of the medicine, she could feel that she was powerless during the fight.Just now An Lu spilled the spices, which caught the two of them off guard, and Bu Qinyan seized the opportunity to leave.
"Your Majesty, Yingshan and the others?" An Lu meant to wait for a while longer for Yingshan and the others to arrive.
"They ate too much, and they won't be able to recover in a while. When they come, the grass on the grave will be two feet high." Bu Qinyan said unhappily, and kept running with An Lu, at least to escape the pursuit of the two.
"I'm sorry." An Lu felt a little guilty, and she understood when they took traditional Chinese medicine.
"I can't blame you for this." Bu Qinyan said, could it be that An's venison was roasted so well that they couldn't help but eat more?
"I'm dragging my mother down again."
Bu Qinyan frowned. If An Lu hadn't been delaying the time just now, she would be in dire straits now.
"No."
...
The strong man and the woman immediately chased after getting out of the predicament of being choked by spices and being fascinated. Just after being hit, the two waved their weapons subconsciously. Now, the strong man's weapon was stained with blood.
The woman pulled out the dagger that An Lu had stabbed into her thigh indiscriminately, and gritted her teeth.
"They say that if you kill that girl first, you won't be plotted against now." The woman complained.
"Oh, if it wasn't for that girl, I would have been plotted against by you." Although the strong man was angry, he still mocked.
"Unreasonable!"
"Fuck it, hurry up and chase it." The strong man said as he took the lead to go to the two figures in front of him.
42. The Darkness Before Dawn
The Great Prince’s Camp…
"Your Highness, the situation with the empress is different." The guard who was ordered to observe the situation in Buqinyan's camp came in and reported.
"My hall knows, maybe it's the queen mother who is hunting, so let's not intervene." Guo Hao's eyes flashed with success. The group of men in black was his gift to the queen mother, and he was so excited that he couldn't sleep all night.
"But, there seems to be the sound of swords colliding." The man hesitated.
"That's it... let's wait for some time." Guo Hao was very dissatisfied with the guard's lack of wink, and glared at the guard.
"Yes." The guard didn't dare to say any more and left the tent.
At the same time, a person in the first prince's camp rushed out of the tent and headed for the military camp outside the forest.
"General, there are guards running out of the forest outside the camp asking to see you."
"Do you know whose guard it is?" Buwei frowned, worried about his daughter's safety.
"It's a man, but he said he has news about the empress." The soldier who reported the message obviously knew what Bu Wei was worried about.
"Pass it in first." Buwei felt relieved, and then raised it again.
"General, the empress is under attack." Unexpectedly, that was the first sentence the guard came in.
"What!" Bu Wei jumped up.
This is the guard who escaped from Guo Hao's camp to deliver the letter. He was a pawn placed beside Guo Hao very early on. It is not easy to climb to the current position.However, the situation was urgent, and he didn't care about arousing suspicion, so he risked his life to deliver the letter.It's a pity that he probably won't be able to return to the First Prince's side again.
Therefore, the guard told Bu Wei what he heard from outside the first prince's tent, and finally said:
"I'm afraid this has something to do with His Highness."
Buwei calmed down a bit, thinking that his daughter's guards were not vegetarians, so he settled down.Before he could feel relieved, the soldiers directly led a woman in, drenched in blood.
"General, please lead your troops to support the master."
Buwei and his men knew very well what the female guards represented, so the soldiers brought them in without notifying them.
"Quick, what happened?"
Seeing another person in the camp, the woman adjusted what she originally wanted to say, saying:
"The empress and us were first plotted against. Then we were attacked by a group of men in black. We were caught by the men in black. By the time we arrived at the empress's tent, the empress had already left and was heading west. I was sent here Send a message to the general." The woman finished speaking in one breath, as if she couldn't take it anymore and passed out.
"Immediately, order soldiers!" After hearing this, Bu Wei ordered the girl to be settled, and ordered hundreds of soldiers without having time to ask the emperor for instructions.
This is the highest number of people that a general can mobilize without edicts. If he is not afraid of Buwei today, he can mobilize at least 5000 people.
"General, where are you going to chase?" The lieutenant was a little embarrassed. He was also in the camp just now, and the two guards said one thing and the other said something.
"Go to the queen's camp first." Buwei hesitated for a while, and decided to see if his daughter had returned.
...
As Liu Sanniang and Cheng Ming's footsteps approached, Bu Qinyan made a decisive decision and turned directly into the forest.Although the hunting ground had been stepped on many roads, some places were still undamaged, so Bu Qinyan took An Lu to the depths of the forest.With agility, they did not cut off the branches blocking the way, but passed through the gap between them.
However, Cheng Ming's skills were not so agile, so he simply swung his knife to cut off the branches, but this also slowed down his speed.Although Liu Sanniang was able to pass quickly, she was grabbed by Cheng Ming's big hand and brought back.Joke, otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to catch the queen.Although neither side can get it, it can't let others take advantage of it.
Although Liu Sanniang wanted to get rid of Cheng Ming's control, she was plotted against by An Lu before, and her agility was also compromised, so she was suppressed by Cheng Ming.
"You let me go!"
"Heh, if you want to leave, help me chop up the rubbish. At worst, none of us can get it."
"Everyone is running far away now!" Liu Sanniang looked at the two figures that were drifting away, angrily.
Under the cover of the night, even though the two of them were not walking fast, they were quickly engulfed by the darkness.In addition, they didn't destroy the road, so trying to find those two people in the intricate forest was like looking for a needle in a haystack.
"You're still making noise, so why don't you help cut off these branches." Cheng Ming is now smashing his cans, in short, if he can't get others, he can't even think about getting them.
"With your stature, it's impossible to catch up with them." Liu Sanniang rolled her eyes.
"Then what do you think we should do?" Cheng Ming stopped his movements, and while the two were talking, Bu Qinyan had long since disappeared.
"Our presence here is equivalent to showing the way for the guards outside." Liu Sanniang said.
"Now we leave first and take them in the opposite direction."
"It's just a delay."
"Be optimistic, who knows if there are any beasts to help us complete the task during this time?"
"Absolutely!"
The two quickly exited the trail and headed in the opposite direction, but deliberately slowed down.After the footsteps of chasing came from behind, the two escaped with all their might.
"Wait." After chasing for a certain distance, Ying Priest called to stop Ying Shan who was still chasing further.
"Huh?" Although Yingshan was anxious, she knew that Yingsi would not ask her to stop for no reason.
"There are only the footsteps of those two thieves, but no empress's." Ying Si said.
"Are you still in the mood to watch the footsteps?" Although Yingshan said so, she still knelt down and looked carefully.
"An Lu's martial arts are too weak, if the empress wants to take her with her, then her footsteps will not be as clean as they are now." Ying Si said.
"Since they want to lead us away, it means that the empress is in another direction."
"Then let them go like this?" Yingshan said unwillingly.
"The most urgent thing now is to find your mother. Have you reported to Old General Bu?" Ying Si asked suddenly.
"I forgot!" Yingshan slapped her forehead, all her mind was on thinking about who poisoned and detoxified.When he was barely able to move, he immediately led people to join Shadow Priest, and then the two groups worked together to deal with the men in black.When they finally arrived at the master's tent, they only saw the tent with air leaks.
After that, I just focus on chasing people, how can I still have time to report?
"Then go quickly." Ying Si was powerless.
But Liu Sanniang realized that no one was chasing after her, and knew that their plan had been discovered.She rolled her eyes and immediately returned to Buqinyan's camp. She bet that Buqinyan's guards were only focused on chasing people and did not ask for help.
Sure enough, she intercepted the guard who was leaving in a hurry, Liu Sanniang killed him halfway, and put on the guard's clothes by herself.She originally wanted not to report the letter directly, but on second thought, she might as well guide the reinforcements to other places.It's a pity that she didn't expect someone to report earlier than her.
And Cheng Ming parted ways with Liu Sanniang when he found out that the two behind him were not chasing after him, and returned to report to his master.
...
An Lu was almost dragged away by Bu Qinyan, and the two of them got rid of the pursuers and walked in for a while, but Bu Qinyan didn't dare to go back the same way to bet that the two would leave instead of just waiting.
Bu Qinyan found a big tree and walked over with An Lu, leaning against the tree.
"Ma'am, are you hungry?" An Lu asked suddenly, when she just threw away the spices, she found the remaining dry food in her bosom.
"You brought food?" Bu Qinyan was a little surprised. The incident happened suddenly just now, and she had time to take the long sword to defend herself.
"Hmm." An Lu reached into his pocket with one hand, and took out a small cloth bag.
"Maybe it's all broken." An Lu felt a little regretful.
"It's good to have something to eat." Bu Qinyan said indifferently, and suddenly seemed to think of something, and glanced at An Lu's arm.Although she couldn't see at night, her eyesight was better than that of ordinary people, and she could vaguely see An Lu's arm.There is no outline of a dagger in this hand.
As expected, those dry rations had become fragmented during the fighting and fleeing, and the dry rations that were not much in the first place seemed to be even less.
Bu Qinyan wrapped the dry food in the bag with her clothes, and turned the bag over under An Lu's puzzled eyes.
"Bandage it first."
"Uh." Now you can't see your fingers, and you can take out the dry food only by feeling. If you ask her to bandage it, won't it be embarrassing for her?
"Hold out your hand." Bu Qinyan said.
"Your Majesty, can you see clearly?" An Lu asked in surprise.
"I can see a little bit, you put my hand near your injured shoulder." Buqinyan said, extending a hand to An Lu.
An Lu held the Queen's hand, and moved towards his injured arm little by little, and every time he moved the other hand, there was a burst of pain.Although she successfully attacked Liu Sanniang before, Cheng Ming cut her other arm in the chaos.
"Here." An Lu placed Bu Qinyan's hand on the place where the dagger had stabbed him. The dagger had almost penetrated his body, so the wound was still bleeding.
The moment Buqinyan touched it, An Lu snorted, and Buqinyan also touched his hands full of blood.
"Be patient." Bu Qinyan said, thinking about what to say to divert her attention.
"Where's the dagger on your shoulder?"
"Treat him in the same way as a man." An Lu said proudly.
"You are vindictive."
"I'm just a melon-eating crowd. She flew over with a dagger and wanted to kill me in a random manner. If it wasn't for the empress to remind me, I would be cold."
"It's your fault for talking too much." Although Bu Qinyan couldn't understand some words, she could roughly understand what An Lu meant.
"A gentleman uses his mouth but not his hands!" An Lu spoke eloquently. While chatting with the queen, she temporarily forgot the pain, and focused all her attention on her "great achievements".
"That's not how the phrase is used."
"It's about the same."
"Eat something first, you're bleeding too much." Bu Qinyan handed the dry food to An Lu, and An Lu subconsciously wanted to take it with her hands, but it's a pity that her hands are not so flexible now.
"Why don't you feed me?" An Lu tentatively asked.
"It's not that both of your hands are broken." Bu Qinyan gave her a supercilious look, but An Lu couldn't accept it at all.
"No, ma'am, I can't see anything now." An Lu concealed the injury, subconsciously not wanting to worry people.Although the queen is not necessarily worried.
"Open your mouth." Bu Qinyan said helplessly. Anyway, she was also injured because of herself.
Seeing the Queen's compromise, An Lu immediately became elated.
"Your Majesty is so kind!" An Lu mumbled while chewing dry food.
"Eat yours!" Bu Qinyan said helplessly.
At this moment, if the atmosphere between the two was seen by others, they would think it was a couple camping instead of a master and servant fleeing.
"Mother, I'm afraid." When the surroundings became quiet and the darkness dominated the mountains and forests, An Lu inevitably felt fear and subconsciously looked for a support.
"Come closer?" Buqinyan suggested, it's no wonder An Lu felt scared in such an environment where he couldn't see his fingers.
As if waiting for Bu Qinyan's words, An Lu leaned over the moment she finished speaking.Bu Qinyan hesitated for a while, then reached out to embrace An Lu.
"Ma'am, it's cold." With the loss of blood, An Lu's body temperature began to drop, and the situation was very pessimistic.
43. Get out of trouble
Bu Wei led a hundred people and quickly came to the camp where Bu Qinyan was stationed according to the guide of the guards. Not far from the camp, they found the guard who had been killed by Liu Sanniang.Bu Wei immediately ordered someone to go back and arrest Liu Sanniang, but unfortunately he had already escaped and killed the soldiers guarding the door.
"General." Seeing Buwei coming, Yingshan saluted immediately.
"Have you found the empress?" Buwei asked anxiously.
"...Never." Yingshan lowered her head a little ashamed, there were too few people, and they couldn't do what they wanted.
Bu Wei immediately ordered these hundreds of people to disperse to search for it. The so-called number of people is strong, and soon some soldiers found the branches cut off by Cheng Ming and the others.
"General, there are destroyed bushes here!"
A group of people walked along this road, but it was a pity that the cut marks disappeared after a while, and everyone stopped in place.The most worrying thing was that on those leaves, Shadow Priest found bloodstains, and he didn't know who it belonged to.Originally, they wanted to follow the bloodstains, but the light from the torches was not enough to support this idea.
But at this time, the situation of Bu Qinyan and An Lu who were hiding was not good.Although Bu Qinyan was not cut, she was responsible for opening the way when she was escaping, so there were many scratch marks on her body.And An Lu's situation was even worse. Not to mention the place where he was cut later, the wound that was originally stabbed by the dagger did not stop the bleeding because there was no medical treatment, and the oozing blood soon soaked the fast cloth.An Lu also fell into a semi-comatose state due to excessive blood loss. If it wasn't for Bu Qinyan calling in her ear, she was afraid that she would pass out, and it would be hard to say whether she would wake up.
"An Lu, I can't sleep!" Bu Qinyan was a little anxious. When she noticed that the smell of blood in her nostrils was getting stronger and stronger, she knew that something was wrong. She immediately tore off a piece of cloth from her body and bandaged An Lu again. to no avail.
In the darkness, the dots of light in the distance are easy to be noticed by interested people. When Bu Qinyan saw the fire, she knew that they were saved.But she didn't dare to move An Lu, for fear that her injury would worsen.
"Don't move, I'll go back." Buqinyan tried to make a sound to attract the attention of those who were looking for her, but the sound she made was too weak to reach their ears.
"En." An Lu replied in a daze, she wanted to sleep.
Bu Qinyan got up and went to the place where there was fire. Since someone has come to look for them, it proves that the thief has left.After the power of the medicine passed, Buqinyan's physical strength also fully recovered, so it was not difficult to join the people who were looking for her.
"Father." Seeing Bu Wei and his tall body, Bu Qinyan felt like weeping with joy.
"Yan'er." At this moment, Bu Wei didn't care about so many etiquettes of monarchs and ministers, strode forward and hugged his daughter tightly.
Under the firelight, she could see that her daughter's clothes were torn and there were a few bloodstains on her hands.
"Quick, let's go back." Buwei said anxiously.
"Wait, Dad. There's one more person." Bu Qinyan held back Bu Wei who was in a hurry to go back.
"You tell them where he is, and let them look for it. You follow daddy back." Buwei frowned. At this moment, he just wanted to pull his daughter back to find a military doctor to treat her well.
"We can't delay any longer, she is seriously injured." Bu Qinyan insisted.
"Let's go, let's go." Bu Wei compromised and let a few people follow Bu Qinyan back the same way to find An Lu who was unconscious.
Bu Qinyan asked a soldier to carry the unconscious An Lu back. When she pulled An Lu's other arm, she found that her sleeve was soaked in blood.The situation was more serious than she expected.
"Father, did you ask the military doctor to come with you?" Bu Qinyan said anxiously, biting her lip, feeling a little distressed when she saw An Lu's appearance, and a burst of anger rose from the bottom of her heart.
"Uh, Dad forgot." Buwei scratched his head, seeing his daughter's appearance, he guessed that An Lu was injured because of her daughter, so it was difficult to say such heartless words like just now.
"Yingshan, hurry up and carry An Lu back to the camp, and help her stop the bleeding first." Bu Qinyan was helpless, as his father was too unreliable.
"Yes." Yingshan originally wanted to carry An Lu on his back, but just as he put An Lu's hand on his shoulder, the unconscious person snorted.
Bu Qinyan squatted down and used a long sword to pry An Lu's sleeve away, and a deep wound appeared on An Lu's forearm.Coupled with the running all the way afterwards, the wound was torn open a little more.
"Master, this..."
"Send people back immediately."
In the end, Yingshan hugged him horizontally and returned to the camp like the wind.
At this moment, the eldest prince had just arrived late, and he was surprised to see the chaos in Buqinyan's camp.
"The eldest prince is really a busy man." Seeing Guo Hao, Bu Wei mocked without saving him any face.
"Old General Bu was joking. This hall thought that the queen mother was hunting, so I didn't arrive at the first time, so as not to be suspected of stealing credit." Guo Hao lowered his head, and the unwillingness flashed in his eyes. How could Bu Qinyan be so good? ?
"Then His Highness's insight is really excellent. I'm afraid that's how he was suppressed in the court." At this moment, Bu Qinyan was furious, and Bu Wei had just told her how the guard reported the letter.At this moment, when the enemies met, Bu Qinyan stabbed him as usual.
"Mother, forgive me." Guo Hao lowered his brows and looked pleasing to the eye, but his tone was vaguely regretful.
Now that you are convicted, just kneel down! "Bu Qinyan didn't mean to take it lightly, now that An Lu is hers anyway, how can she turn a blind eye when her own people are at a disadvantage.
"Mother?" Guo Hao was stunned.
Bu Qinyan drifted away, leaving Bu Wei to give him a vicious look, and Guo Hao was so frightened that he dared not kneel down.
After Bu Qinyan trained Guo Hao, she came to the tent where An Lu was temporarily placed. At this moment, An Lu's two arms had been bandaged.
"How is her injury?" Bu Qinyan asked a guard she brought over, who was also bandaging An Lu.
"Although they are all skin traumas, if the wounds are delayed for too long, I am afraid that the evil wind will enter the body." The guard also knows some medical principles.
Bu Qinyan looked at the three pieces of cloth on the ground, the red on them was particularly dazzling.
"Father, does His Majesty know about this?" Bu Qinyan walked out of the tent and asked her father.
"I should know. I transferred hundreds of people without an order before." According to the emperor's suspicion of the Bu family, it is impossible to be unclear.
Bu Qinyan's face became even more gloomy. Could Guo Shaojun wish for her to die? He has not been seen until now.
...
"What? Buwei dispatched troops without authorization?" The emperor, who was immersed in the beauty village, suddenly sobered up, and his tone was not kind.
The heart of Concubine Zhang Gui who was sleeping on the side was pounding. She had also heard about her son's plan. Now hearing such a report was nothing more than her son's plan being exposed.
"The general said something happened to the empress, so he couldn't wait for the Holy Majesty's edict, so he dispatched troops without authorization."
Guo Shaojun's heart sank slightly. Now Buqinyan can't have an accident. He is very aware of the importance of the Bu family to the court. Even though he can't get used to it, he can't completely tear him apart. What's more, according to the current investigation, the Bu family will be the top priority in the future. heavy.
"Your Majesty, how could it be safe during the hunt? Yiqie seems to be an old general who is too sensitive."
Guo Shaojun glared at Concubine Zhang Gui. Although he was not sure whether the matter was related to her, it was absolutely impossible for Bu Qinyan to suffer from those prey in the forest who had no fighting power.And his two sons are undoubtedly the biggest suspects.
"Pass down my oral order to stop the autumn hunting immediately, and I will personally lead the troops to visit the queen."
"Your Majesty!" Concubine Zhang Gui was very puzzled by the emperor's actions, and did not understand why he wanted to visit the queen instead of taking the opportunity to punish Bu Wei.
"Shut up!" Guo Shaojun was also very impatient.
When the emperor came to Buqinyan's camp, he was relieved to find that Buqinyan was standing there in good order, and there seemed to be no wounds on his body.
"My minister, see the saint."
"I have personally met the Holy One."
"Pingshen, the queen is frightened. Seeing that the queen is fine, I am relieved." Guo Shaojun got down from his horse and helped the queen up.
"My lord, although the concubine is fine, it's just that the lives of the maids around me hang by a thread." Bu Qinyan didn't intend to let the emperor be confused.
"As long as my queen is fine, I won't pursue the matter of the old general sending troops without an order."
"Is the Holy Majesty going to make a mess?" Bu Qinyan looked directly at the emperor, without any intention of backing down.She is going to meet the emperor today. If the emperor still doesn't care, then their cooperation needs to be carefully considered.
"What does the queen mean? I have not pursued Buwei's crime of leaving his post without authorization." Guo Shaojun said displeasedly. He used his toes to figure out who was behind the incident. For the sake of a queen, he damaged his prince. is impossible.What's more, this queen is not close to him.
"Your Majesty, the number of soldiers I have dispatched is worth a hundred. I remember that this is within the scope of my authority." Seeing that his daughter was determined to seek justice, Bu Wei naturally would not tear down the situation.
"The queen said what she wants?" Guo Shaojun said coldly.
"Dozens of people can be hidden in this hunting ground, so what is the crime of His Royal Highness who is in charge of supervision?"
"Father, it's my son's negligence that caused the empress to be in crisis, and my son is willing to be punished." Guo Hao took the initiative, since the queen was not dead, he couldn't escape the guilt.
"However, Father. Those culprits have not been completely wiped out. I implore Father to give me a chance to make up for my mistakes."
"The ability of His Royal Highness, I dare not compliment you." Bu Qinyan sneered.
"Father, my son is willing to find out the truth for my brother." The second prince who heard the news came out and said, he glanced at his elder brother, and there was sarcasm in his eyes.
Bu Qinyan gave Guo Rui a meaningful look, those prey were brought from him.
"Rui'er has a heart, I'm sure." Guo Shaojun glanced at his son with satisfaction.
"As for Hao'er, just stay in the mansion and wait during this period."
"My son complies with the decree." The crime similar to murdering the empress was only house arrest in the end, so the First Prince would naturally not object.
The emperor's blatant partiality was seen by everyone, but no one dared to speak.
"As for the empress being frightened, as compensation, I..."
44. Fate hangs by a thread
A bunch of medicinal materials and jewels were rewarded, blocking the mouths of Buwei and Buqinyan.
"Since there was an accident in the autumn hunt, it will stop immediately. I will go back to the palace first. There are many injured people on the queen's side and it is inconvenient to hurry. I am allowed to postpone the departure back to the palace for a few days." Guo Shaojun finally said, without the slightest idea of staying with him.
Although the emperor made some concessions, Bu Qinyan was still dissatisfied with the result.She still wanted to say something, but woke up under Buwei's eyes, and silently accepted it.Seeing that she was interesting, Guo Shaojun left her an imperial doctor and some basic medicinal materials before taking everyone away.
And his attitude made everyone who had doubts about his actions calm down immediately. It seems that the emperor just didn't want to tear himself apart with the Bu family immediately, so he immediately went to visit and put on a show.Therefore, let those people feel relieved.
"Yan'er, you are too impulsive today." Before leaving, Bu Wei asked Bu Qinyan to talk alone.Today, Bu Qinyan's aggressiveness is not as usual, and such an act of angering the emperor will do harm to the Bu family.
"Father...baby..." Bu Qinyan was like waking up from a dream, and she was a little at a loss about her abnormality today. She knew that the emperor would not be fair, so why didn't she sell the emperor's favor?
"The emperor is a greedy wolf, and the child can't retreat again and again, so that sooner or later he will forget the threat behind him and turn to eradicate the Bu family." Bu Qinyan found a seemingly reasonable excuse for her strength.
"That shouldn't make the emperor lose face in public." Bu Wei disagreed, he could unconditionally support his daughter in front of the emperor, so that his daughter would not be completely dependent on the emperor.However, the daughter's actions today made the relationship between the royal family and the cloth family eased and stiffened again.As the current head of the Bu family, Bu Wei needs to be responsible for the Bu family.
"It's the boy who is impulsive." Bu Qinyan said.
"Recently Yan'er in the palace should be more careful, you have angered the Holy Majesty." Buwei finally said a word of concern.
Bu Qinyan's heart warmed, and she nodded in response.
After Bu Wei left, Bu Qinyan still stood there, unable to move for a long time.There are so many thoughts in my head that I can't always make sense of them, and each one is connected to a person named An Lu.
Regarding her inexplicable emotions, Bu Qinyan chose to put it down temporarily and began to review what happened before.
Obviously, there were two groups of people who came to assassinate, and she was the one who prescribed the medicine according to the woman's words.And the men in black later didn't know about it.The people in the court who are hostile to her are nothing more than members of the royal family, but it is impossible for the emperor to turn against her now, and the only ones left are the two princes.
It is reasonable to speculate that it was the second prince who administered the medicine, so only one person was sent to assassinate him.The second prince represents Concubine De, but if Concubine De wants the position of Empress, she must first get Concubine Zhang Gui.Then why are they so eager to assassinate themselves?Thinking about it, Bu Qinyan's thoughts diverged to the last Dragon Boat Festival.The people Zhao Fangyi confessed seemed to be only related to the minority ethnic groups in the southwest, but could it be that she had missed something?
"Shadow Priest."
"Master." Ying Si came out with a shawl when he realized that Bu Qinyan hadn't returned for a long time, and waited behind the queen.
"Re-investigate the officials of the minority ethnic groups in the southwest, and investigate with the prime minister." Bu Qinyan said
"Isn't everyone in my line of work like this? You are a brave little maid, and you didn't escape." The woman said with interest.
"Fleeing wool, you think I'm deaf? Everyone knows that you have accomplices in the fights and killings outside." An Lu said angrily.
"Hey, there are other people out there who want to kill you. Don't blame the old lady for this." Unexpectedly, the woman became angry and expressed her anger at An Lu's slander.
"Why is the Empress so hated?" An Lu pressed softly.
"Why, you also want to murder Ben Gong?" Bu Qinyan's cool voice came. Although she had stood up, her limbs still had no strength.
"Your Majesty, don't slander me!" An Lu became angry when he heard this.
"When death is approaching, you two, uh, the three girls are still moaning!" A rough voice came, and another strong man walked outside the tent, he was the boss of the group outside.Halfway through the speech, seeing the uninvited guest in the camp, the words of the strong man froze for a moment.
"Tsk, another business grabber!" The woman was a little angry.
"I'm here to take the queen's life today, you and you..." He pointed at An Lu and the woman with a big knife, and continued:
"You can get out, I can still let you live."
"Heh." The woman chuckled, two daggers appeared in her hands, and waved in front of the big man:
"Don't make a mistake, there is a first come first, first come first, and the empress is the one I met first."
"These things still come first and then come first? Naturally, whoever gets the head counts." The big man understood the woman's intention as soon as he heard it, and said disdainfully.
"Then each depends on his ability." After the woman finished speaking, she rushed to Bu Qinyan first.
An Lu's long sword was out of its sheath long ago, and it stood in front of Bu Qinyan, blocking the woman's dagger.However, when the long sword and dagger collided, the weakness of the arm was revealed.
"Damn it!" Seeing that the woman had seized the opportunity, the strong man immediately stepped forward with a knife.
"You gang up on bullying my maid, and I only have one life, how do you want to divide it?" Bu Qinyan sat on the edge of the bed and remained motionless, ignoring the shadow of swords and swords.
"That's right!" The strong man suddenly realized, and suddenly swung his knife to attack the woman.
"Fuck you stupid bastard, the queen is still fine now, what are you thinking so much about!" The woman was exhausted.
"You're stupid, this maid is as good as a three-legged cat, I can kill her in a matter of minutes after I clean you up." The strong man was not stupid, and immediately retorted.
Although he was right, An Lu should be happy in the current situation, but he was offended!
However, in the face of life and death, face aside, An Lu immediately chimed in and said:
"That's right, brother, you are very brave. A small person like me is no match for you. You can kill this big sister first, and then kill me. It's easy!"
Seeing An Lu's "flexible and stretchable" temperament, Bu Qinyan couldn't help laughing, and pressed her lips tightly to prevent the laughter from overflowing.
The woman was already pissed off by the strong man, but when she heard that An Lu was still playing tricks, she turned to An Lu mercilessly with the dagger in her hand.An Lu hurriedly parried, but her kung fu was poor, and the medicine was still there, so her arm was still scratched.
"Brother, you see that I can be injured casually, so you don't have to worry about me, and driving the opponent away is the right way!" An Lu raised his injured arm in front of the strong man.
Bu Qinyan: "..."
woman:"…"
Strong man: "..."
Although, what she said is very reasonable, what should I do?
"Why don't we join forces to kill this maid, and then fight to the death?" The woman was about to be laughed out of anger.
"I think she's right." The strong man said, then turned to An Lu and said:
"You take good care of your empress, don't let her succeed."
An Lu:? ? ?Good man, is there any?
The strong man is not stupid, he has his own thinking.The woman in front of him is the one with the strongest combat power now, if he kills her, then killing the queen will be a sure thing.He was a little worried that he would be plotted against when he confronted the woman alone, but now that An Lu is watching, the chance of this is much less, because...
"Hey, brother, be careful, she's going to sneak attack!"
"No, big sister, you don't talk about martial arts, if you can't beat me, you will use medicine; if you can't beat big brother, you will use hidden weapons!"
"By the way, what's your name, Miss?"
The woman's head was buzzing from the noise of An Lu's voice, let alone plotting, it was not easy to concentrate on fighting the enemy.
"Shut up!" the woman yelled.
"If you say shut up, I'll shut up. Wouldn't it be embarrassing for me?" An Lu stiffened her neck and said. In fact, her palms were sweating, and she looked at the queen behind her from time to time, praying in her heart that she would quickly recover her fighting power.
"An Lu, be careful!"
"Hiss!" An Lu gritted his teeth, and a dagger was thrust into her arm shining brightly. The woman had a headache just now from her noise, so she was distracted and threw a dagger to kill An Lu.
Hearing the Queen's reminder, An Lu subconsciously turned sideways to dodge, but she couldn't dodge at all according to her current mobility, so she took a hard hit.
"The empress is too busy to take care of herself, and she is meddling in her own business!" The woman was dissatisfied, but it was a pity that she was pestered by a strong man, so she couldn't be distracted at all.The distraction just now almost hurt her.
"Oh." Buqinyan sneered, and took out a sword from under the pillow. She thought it was impossible for her to relax her vigilance in such an environment as hunting.
"What about you?" The woman was surprised.
"Your medicine is really good, but it's a pity that you talk too much nonsense, and the properties of this medicine have been broken down."
After Buqinyan joined the battlefield, the two instantly unified their target and joined forces to attack Buqinyan.An Lu was a little panicked, but she knew that her three-legged kung fu would not be able to help her.In a hurry, she fumbled around and touched the spice in her arms.
Although Buqinyan's strength was reduced by the medicine, it should not be underestimated. The strong man and the woman were all focused on fighting with Buqinyan, and they didn't notice the sneaky An Lu for a while.
"Hold your breath and close your eyes!" An Lu said quickly, out of trust in An Lu, Bu Qinyan quickly followed suit.
"Damn!" The strong man and the woman cursed at the same time.
"what!"
"Walk."
In the confusion, Bu Qinyan cut open the tent with a sword and led An Lu out.Although she had detoxified part of the medicine, she could feel that she was powerless during the fight.Just now An Lu spilled the spices, which caught the two of them off guard, and Bu Qinyan seized the opportunity to leave.
"Your Majesty, Yingshan and the others?" An Lu meant to wait for a while longer for Yingshan and the others to arrive.
"They ate too much, and they won't be able to recover in a while. When they come, the grass on the grave will be two feet high." Bu Qinyan said unhappily, and kept running with An Lu, at least to escape the pursuit of the two.
"I'm sorry." An Lu felt a little guilty, and she understood when they took traditional Chinese medicine.
"I can't blame you for this." Bu Qinyan said, could it be that An's venison was roasted so well that they couldn't help but eat more?
"I'm dragging my mother down again."
Bu Qinyan frowned. If An Lu hadn't been delaying the time just now, she would be in dire straits now.
"No."
...
The strong man and the woman immediately chased after getting out of the predicament of being choked by spices and being fascinated. Just after being hit, the two waved their weapons subconsciously. Now, the strong man's weapon was stained with blood.
The woman pulled out the dagger that An Lu had stabbed into her thigh indiscriminately, and gritted her teeth.
"They say that if you kill that girl first, you won't be plotted against now." The woman complained.
"Oh, if it wasn't for that girl, I would have been plotted against by you." Although the strong man was angry, he still mocked.
"Unreasonable!"
"Fuck it, hurry up and chase it." The strong man said as he took the lead to go to the two figures in front of him.
42. The Darkness Before Dawn
The Great Prince’s Camp…
"Your Highness, the situation with the empress is different." The guard who was ordered to observe the situation in Buqinyan's camp came in and reported.
"My hall knows, maybe it's the queen mother who is hunting, so let's not intervene." Guo Hao's eyes flashed with success. The group of men in black was his gift to the queen mother, and he was so excited that he couldn't sleep all night.
"But, there seems to be the sound of swords colliding." The man hesitated.
"That's it... let's wait for some time." Guo Hao was very dissatisfied with the guard's lack of wink, and glared at the guard.
"Yes." The guard didn't dare to say any more and left the tent.
At the same time, a person in the first prince's camp rushed out of the tent and headed for the military camp outside the forest.
"General, there are guards running out of the forest outside the camp asking to see you."
"Do you know whose guard it is?" Buwei frowned, worried about his daughter's safety.
"It's a man, but he said he has news about the empress." The soldier who reported the message obviously knew what Bu Wei was worried about.
"Pass it in first." Buwei felt relieved, and then raised it again.
"General, the empress is under attack." Unexpectedly, that was the first sentence the guard came in.
"What!" Bu Wei jumped up.
This is the guard who escaped from Guo Hao's camp to deliver the letter. He was a pawn placed beside Guo Hao very early on. It is not easy to climb to the current position.However, the situation was urgent, and he didn't care about arousing suspicion, so he risked his life to deliver the letter.It's a pity that he probably won't be able to return to the First Prince's side again.
Therefore, the guard told Bu Wei what he heard from outside the first prince's tent, and finally said:
"I'm afraid this has something to do with His Highness."
Buwei calmed down a bit, thinking that his daughter's guards were not vegetarians, so he settled down.Before he could feel relieved, the soldiers directly led a woman in, drenched in blood.
"General, please lead your troops to support the master."
Buwei and his men knew very well what the female guards represented, so the soldiers brought them in without notifying them.
"Quick, what happened?"
Seeing another person in the camp, the woman adjusted what she originally wanted to say, saying:
"The empress and us were first plotted against. Then we were attacked by a group of men in black. We were caught by the men in black. By the time we arrived at the empress's tent, the empress had already left and was heading west. I was sent here Send a message to the general." The woman finished speaking in one breath, as if she couldn't take it anymore and passed out.
"Immediately, order soldiers!" After hearing this, Bu Wei ordered the girl to be settled, and ordered hundreds of soldiers without having time to ask the emperor for instructions.
This is the highest number of people that a general can mobilize without edicts. If he is not afraid of Buwei today, he can mobilize at least 5000 people.
"General, where are you going to chase?" The lieutenant was a little embarrassed. He was also in the camp just now, and the two guards said one thing and the other said something.
"Go to the queen's camp first." Buwei hesitated for a while, and decided to see if his daughter had returned.
...
As Liu Sanniang and Cheng Ming's footsteps approached, Bu Qinyan made a decisive decision and turned directly into the forest.Although the hunting ground had been stepped on many roads, some places were still undamaged, so Bu Qinyan took An Lu to the depths of the forest.With agility, they did not cut off the branches blocking the way, but passed through the gap between them.
However, Cheng Ming's skills were not so agile, so he simply swung his knife to cut off the branches, but this also slowed down his speed.Although Liu Sanniang was able to pass quickly, she was grabbed by Cheng Ming's big hand and brought back.Joke, otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to catch the queen.Although neither side can get it, it can't let others take advantage of it.
Although Liu Sanniang wanted to get rid of Cheng Ming's control, she was plotted against by An Lu before, and her agility was also compromised, so she was suppressed by Cheng Ming.
"You let me go!"
"Heh, if you want to leave, help me chop up the rubbish. At worst, none of us can get it."
"Everyone is running far away now!" Liu Sanniang looked at the two figures that were drifting away, angrily.
Under the cover of the night, even though the two of them were not walking fast, they were quickly engulfed by the darkness.In addition, they didn't destroy the road, so trying to find those two people in the intricate forest was like looking for a needle in a haystack.
"You're still making noise, so why don't you help cut off these branches." Cheng Ming is now smashing his cans, in short, if he can't get others, he can't even think about getting them.
"With your stature, it's impossible to catch up with them." Liu Sanniang rolled her eyes.
"Then what do you think we should do?" Cheng Ming stopped his movements, and while the two were talking, Bu Qinyan had long since disappeared.
"Our presence here is equivalent to showing the way for the guards outside." Liu Sanniang said.
"Now we leave first and take them in the opposite direction."
"It's just a delay."
"Be optimistic, who knows if there are any beasts to help us complete the task during this time?"
"Absolutely!"
The two quickly exited the trail and headed in the opposite direction, but deliberately slowed down.After the footsteps of chasing came from behind, the two escaped with all their might.
"Wait." After chasing for a certain distance, Ying Priest called to stop Ying Shan who was still chasing further.
"Huh?" Although Yingshan was anxious, she knew that Yingsi would not ask her to stop for no reason.
"There are only the footsteps of those two thieves, but no empress's." Ying Si said.
"Are you still in the mood to watch the footsteps?" Although Yingshan said so, she still knelt down and looked carefully.
"An Lu's martial arts are too weak, if the empress wants to take her with her, then her footsteps will not be as clean as they are now." Ying Si said.
"Since they want to lead us away, it means that the empress is in another direction."
"Then let them go like this?" Yingshan said unwillingly.
"The most urgent thing now is to find your mother. Have you reported to Old General Bu?" Ying Si asked suddenly.
"I forgot!" Yingshan slapped her forehead, all her mind was on thinking about who poisoned and detoxified.When he was barely able to move, he immediately led people to join Shadow Priest, and then the two groups worked together to deal with the men in black.When they finally arrived at the master's tent, they only saw the tent with air leaks.
After that, I just focus on chasing people, how can I still have time to report?
"Then go quickly." Ying Si was powerless.
But Liu Sanniang realized that no one was chasing after her, and knew that their plan had been discovered.She rolled her eyes and immediately returned to Buqinyan's camp. She bet that Buqinyan's guards were only focused on chasing people and did not ask for help.
Sure enough, she intercepted the guard who was leaving in a hurry, Liu Sanniang killed him halfway, and put on the guard's clothes by herself.She originally wanted not to report the letter directly, but on second thought, she might as well guide the reinforcements to other places.It's a pity that she didn't expect someone to report earlier than her.
And Cheng Ming parted ways with Liu Sanniang when he found out that the two behind him were not chasing after him, and returned to report to his master.
...
An Lu was almost dragged away by Bu Qinyan, and the two of them got rid of the pursuers and walked in for a while, but Bu Qinyan didn't dare to go back the same way to bet that the two would leave instead of just waiting.
Bu Qinyan found a big tree and walked over with An Lu, leaning against the tree.
"Ma'am, are you hungry?" An Lu asked suddenly, when she just threw away the spices, she found the remaining dry food in her bosom.
"You brought food?" Bu Qinyan was a little surprised. The incident happened suddenly just now, and she had time to take the long sword to defend herself.
"Hmm." An Lu reached into his pocket with one hand, and took out a small cloth bag.
"Maybe it's all broken." An Lu felt a little regretful.
"It's good to have something to eat." Bu Qinyan said indifferently, and suddenly seemed to think of something, and glanced at An Lu's arm.Although she couldn't see at night, her eyesight was better than that of ordinary people, and she could vaguely see An Lu's arm.There is no outline of a dagger in this hand.
As expected, those dry rations had become fragmented during the fighting and fleeing, and the dry rations that were not much in the first place seemed to be even less.
Bu Qinyan wrapped the dry food in the bag with her clothes, and turned the bag over under An Lu's puzzled eyes.
"Bandage it first."
"Uh." Now you can't see your fingers, and you can take out the dry food only by feeling. If you ask her to bandage it, won't it be embarrassing for her?
"Hold out your hand." Bu Qinyan said.
"Your Majesty, can you see clearly?" An Lu asked in surprise.
"I can see a little bit, you put my hand near your injured shoulder." Buqinyan said, extending a hand to An Lu.
An Lu held the Queen's hand, and moved towards his injured arm little by little, and every time he moved the other hand, there was a burst of pain.Although she successfully attacked Liu Sanniang before, Cheng Ming cut her other arm in the chaos.
"Here." An Lu placed Bu Qinyan's hand on the place where the dagger had stabbed him. The dagger had almost penetrated his body, so the wound was still bleeding.
The moment Buqinyan touched it, An Lu snorted, and Buqinyan also touched his hands full of blood.
"Be patient." Bu Qinyan said, thinking about what to say to divert her attention.
"Where's the dagger on your shoulder?"
"Treat him in the same way as a man." An Lu said proudly.
"You are vindictive."
"I'm just a melon-eating crowd. She flew over with a dagger and wanted to kill me in a random manner. If it wasn't for the empress to remind me, I would be cold."
"It's your fault for talking too much." Although Bu Qinyan couldn't understand some words, she could roughly understand what An Lu meant.
"A gentleman uses his mouth but not his hands!" An Lu spoke eloquently. While chatting with the queen, she temporarily forgot the pain, and focused all her attention on her "great achievements".
"That's not how the phrase is used."
"It's about the same."
"Eat something first, you're bleeding too much." Bu Qinyan handed the dry food to An Lu, and An Lu subconsciously wanted to take it with her hands, but it's a pity that her hands are not so flexible now.
"Why don't you feed me?" An Lu tentatively asked.
"It's not that both of your hands are broken." Bu Qinyan gave her a supercilious look, but An Lu couldn't accept it at all.
"No, ma'am, I can't see anything now." An Lu concealed the injury, subconsciously not wanting to worry people.Although the queen is not necessarily worried.
"Open your mouth." Bu Qinyan said helplessly. Anyway, she was also injured because of herself.
Seeing the Queen's compromise, An Lu immediately became elated.
"Your Majesty is so kind!" An Lu mumbled while chewing dry food.
"Eat yours!" Bu Qinyan said helplessly.
At this moment, if the atmosphere between the two was seen by others, they would think it was a couple camping instead of a master and servant fleeing.
"Mother, I'm afraid." When the surroundings became quiet and the darkness dominated the mountains and forests, An Lu inevitably felt fear and subconsciously looked for a support.
"Come closer?" Buqinyan suggested, it's no wonder An Lu felt scared in such an environment where he couldn't see his fingers.
As if waiting for Bu Qinyan's words, An Lu leaned over the moment she finished speaking.Bu Qinyan hesitated for a while, then reached out to embrace An Lu.
"Ma'am, it's cold." With the loss of blood, An Lu's body temperature began to drop, and the situation was very pessimistic.
43. Get out of trouble
Bu Wei led a hundred people and quickly came to the camp where Bu Qinyan was stationed according to the guide of the guards. Not far from the camp, they found the guard who had been killed by Liu Sanniang.Bu Wei immediately ordered someone to go back and arrest Liu Sanniang, but unfortunately he had already escaped and killed the soldiers guarding the door.
"General." Seeing Buwei coming, Yingshan saluted immediately.
"Have you found the empress?" Buwei asked anxiously.
"...Never." Yingshan lowered her head a little ashamed, there were too few people, and they couldn't do what they wanted.
Bu Wei immediately ordered these hundreds of people to disperse to search for it. The so-called number of people is strong, and soon some soldiers found the branches cut off by Cheng Ming and the others.
"General, there are destroyed bushes here!"
A group of people walked along this road, but it was a pity that the cut marks disappeared after a while, and everyone stopped in place.The most worrying thing was that on those leaves, Shadow Priest found bloodstains, and he didn't know who it belonged to.Originally, they wanted to follow the bloodstains, but the light from the torches was not enough to support this idea.
But at this time, the situation of Bu Qinyan and An Lu who were hiding was not good.Although Bu Qinyan was not cut, she was responsible for opening the way when she was escaping, so there were many scratch marks on her body.And An Lu's situation was even worse. Not to mention the place where he was cut later, the wound that was originally stabbed by the dagger did not stop the bleeding because there was no medical treatment, and the oozing blood soon soaked the fast cloth.An Lu also fell into a semi-comatose state due to excessive blood loss. If it wasn't for Bu Qinyan calling in her ear, she was afraid that she would pass out, and it would be hard to say whether she would wake up.
"An Lu, I can't sleep!" Bu Qinyan was a little anxious. When she noticed that the smell of blood in her nostrils was getting stronger and stronger, she knew that something was wrong. She immediately tore off a piece of cloth from her body and bandaged An Lu again. to no avail.
In the darkness, the dots of light in the distance are easy to be noticed by interested people. When Bu Qinyan saw the fire, she knew that they were saved.But she didn't dare to move An Lu, for fear that her injury would worsen.
"Don't move, I'll go back." Buqinyan tried to make a sound to attract the attention of those who were looking for her, but the sound she made was too weak to reach their ears.
"En." An Lu replied in a daze, she wanted to sleep.
Bu Qinyan got up and went to the place where there was fire. Since someone has come to look for them, it proves that the thief has left.After the power of the medicine passed, Buqinyan's physical strength also fully recovered, so it was not difficult to join the people who were looking for her.
"Father." Seeing Bu Wei and his tall body, Bu Qinyan felt like weeping with joy.
"Yan'er." At this moment, Bu Wei didn't care about so many etiquettes of monarchs and ministers, strode forward and hugged his daughter tightly.
Under the firelight, she could see that her daughter's clothes were torn and there were a few bloodstains on her hands.
"Quick, let's go back." Buwei said anxiously.
"Wait, Dad. There's one more person." Bu Qinyan held back Bu Wei who was in a hurry to go back.
"You tell them where he is, and let them look for it. You follow daddy back." Buwei frowned. At this moment, he just wanted to pull his daughter back to find a military doctor to treat her well.
"We can't delay any longer, she is seriously injured." Bu Qinyan insisted.
"Let's go, let's go." Bu Wei compromised and let a few people follow Bu Qinyan back the same way to find An Lu who was unconscious.
Bu Qinyan asked a soldier to carry the unconscious An Lu back. When she pulled An Lu's other arm, she found that her sleeve was soaked in blood.The situation was more serious than she expected.
"Father, did you ask the military doctor to come with you?" Bu Qinyan said anxiously, biting her lip, feeling a little distressed when she saw An Lu's appearance, and a burst of anger rose from the bottom of her heart.
"Uh, Dad forgot." Buwei scratched his head, seeing his daughter's appearance, he guessed that An Lu was injured because of her daughter, so it was difficult to say such heartless words like just now.
"Yingshan, hurry up and carry An Lu back to the camp, and help her stop the bleeding first." Bu Qinyan was helpless, as his father was too unreliable.
"Yes." Yingshan originally wanted to carry An Lu on his back, but just as he put An Lu's hand on his shoulder, the unconscious person snorted.
Bu Qinyan squatted down and used a long sword to pry An Lu's sleeve away, and a deep wound appeared on An Lu's forearm.Coupled with the running all the way afterwards, the wound was torn open a little more.
"Master, this..."
"Send people back immediately."
In the end, Yingshan hugged him horizontally and returned to the camp like the wind.
At this moment, the eldest prince had just arrived late, and he was surprised to see the chaos in Buqinyan's camp.
"The eldest prince is really a busy man." Seeing Guo Hao, Bu Wei mocked without saving him any face.
"Old General Bu was joking. This hall thought that the queen mother was hunting, so I didn't arrive at the first time, so as not to be suspected of stealing credit." Guo Hao lowered his head, and the unwillingness flashed in his eyes. How could Bu Qinyan be so good? ?
"Then His Highness's insight is really excellent. I'm afraid that's how he was suppressed in the court." At this moment, Bu Qinyan was furious, and Bu Wei had just told her how the guard reported the letter.At this moment, when the enemies met, Bu Qinyan stabbed him as usual.
"Mother, forgive me." Guo Hao lowered his brows and looked pleasing to the eye, but his tone was vaguely regretful.
Now that you are convicted, just kneel down! "Bu Qinyan didn't mean to take it lightly, now that An Lu is hers anyway, how can she turn a blind eye when her own people are at a disadvantage.
"Mother?" Guo Hao was stunned.
Bu Qinyan drifted away, leaving Bu Wei to give him a vicious look, and Guo Hao was so frightened that he dared not kneel down.
After Bu Qinyan trained Guo Hao, she came to the tent where An Lu was temporarily placed. At this moment, An Lu's two arms had been bandaged.
"How is her injury?" Bu Qinyan asked a guard she brought over, who was also bandaging An Lu.
"Although they are all skin traumas, if the wounds are delayed for too long, I am afraid that the evil wind will enter the body." The guard also knows some medical principles.
Bu Qinyan looked at the three pieces of cloth on the ground, the red on them was particularly dazzling.
"Father, does His Majesty know about this?" Bu Qinyan walked out of the tent and asked her father.
"I should know. I transferred hundreds of people without an order before." According to the emperor's suspicion of the Bu family, it is impossible to be unclear.
Bu Qinyan's face became even more gloomy. Could Guo Shaojun wish for her to die? He has not been seen until now.
...
"What? Buwei dispatched troops without authorization?" The emperor, who was immersed in the beauty village, suddenly sobered up, and his tone was not kind.
The heart of Concubine Zhang Gui who was sleeping on the side was pounding. She had also heard about her son's plan. Now hearing such a report was nothing more than her son's plan being exposed.
"The general said something happened to the empress, so he couldn't wait for the Holy Majesty's edict, so he dispatched troops without authorization."
Guo Shaojun's heart sank slightly. Now Buqinyan can't have an accident. He is very aware of the importance of the Bu family to the court. Even though he can't get used to it, he can't completely tear him apart. What's more, according to the current investigation, the Bu family will be the top priority in the future. heavy.
"Your Majesty, how could it be safe during the hunt? Yiqie seems to be an old general who is too sensitive."
Guo Shaojun glared at Concubine Zhang Gui. Although he was not sure whether the matter was related to her, it was absolutely impossible for Bu Qinyan to suffer from those prey in the forest who had no fighting power.And his two sons are undoubtedly the biggest suspects.
"Pass down my oral order to stop the autumn hunting immediately, and I will personally lead the troops to visit the queen."
"Your Majesty!" Concubine Zhang Gui was very puzzled by the emperor's actions, and did not understand why he wanted to visit the queen instead of taking the opportunity to punish Bu Wei.
"Shut up!" Guo Shaojun was also very impatient.
When the emperor came to Buqinyan's camp, he was relieved to find that Buqinyan was standing there in good order, and there seemed to be no wounds on his body.
"My minister, see the saint."
"I have personally met the Holy One."
"Pingshen, the queen is frightened. Seeing that the queen is fine, I am relieved." Guo Shaojun got down from his horse and helped the queen up.
"My lord, although the concubine is fine, it's just that the lives of the maids around me hang by a thread." Bu Qinyan didn't intend to let the emperor be confused.
"As long as my queen is fine, I won't pursue the matter of the old general sending troops without an order."
"Is the Holy Majesty going to make a mess?" Bu Qinyan looked directly at the emperor, without any intention of backing down.She is going to meet the emperor today. If the emperor still doesn't care, then their cooperation needs to be carefully considered.
"What does the queen mean? I have not pursued Buwei's crime of leaving his post without authorization." Guo Shaojun said displeasedly. He used his toes to figure out who was behind the incident. For the sake of a queen, he damaged his prince. is impossible.What's more, this queen is not close to him.
"Your Majesty, the number of soldiers I have dispatched is worth a hundred. I remember that this is within the scope of my authority." Seeing that his daughter was determined to seek justice, Bu Wei naturally would not tear down the situation.
"The queen said what she wants?" Guo Shaojun said coldly.
"Dozens of people can be hidden in this hunting ground, so what is the crime of His Royal Highness who is in charge of supervision?"
"Father, it's my son's negligence that caused the empress to be in crisis, and my son is willing to be punished." Guo Hao took the initiative, since the queen was not dead, he couldn't escape the guilt.
"However, Father. Those culprits have not been completely wiped out. I implore Father to give me a chance to make up for my mistakes."
"The ability of His Royal Highness, I dare not compliment you." Bu Qinyan sneered.
"Father, my son is willing to find out the truth for my brother." The second prince who heard the news came out and said, he glanced at his elder brother, and there was sarcasm in his eyes.
Bu Qinyan gave Guo Rui a meaningful look, those prey were brought from him.
"Rui'er has a heart, I'm sure." Guo Shaojun glanced at his son with satisfaction.
"As for Hao'er, just stay in the mansion and wait during this period."
"My son complies with the decree." The crime similar to murdering the empress was only house arrest in the end, so the First Prince would naturally not object.
The emperor's blatant partiality was seen by everyone, but no one dared to speak.
"As for the empress being frightened, as compensation, I..."
44. Fate hangs by a thread
A bunch of medicinal materials and jewels were rewarded, blocking the mouths of Buwei and Buqinyan.
"Since there was an accident in the autumn hunt, it will stop immediately. I will go back to the palace first. There are many injured people on the queen's side and it is inconvenient to hurry. I am allowed to postpone the departure back to the palace for a few days." Guo Shaojun finally said, without the slightest idea of staying with him.
Although the emperor made some concessions, Bu Qinyan was still dissatisfied with the result.She still wanted to say something, but woke up under Buwei's eyes, and silently accepted it.Seeing that she was interesting, Guo Shaojun left her an imperial doctor and some basic medicinal materials before taking everyone away.
And his attitude made everyone who had doubts about his actions calm down immediately. It seems that the emperor just didn't want to tear himself apart with the Bu family immediately, so he immediately went to visit and put on a show.Therefore, let those people feel relieved.
"Yan'er, you are too impulsive today." Before leaving, Bu Wei asked Bu Qinyan to talk alone.Today, Bu Qinyan's aggressiveness is not as usual, and such an act of angering the emperor will do harm to the Bu family.
"Father...baby..." Bu Qinyan was like waking up from a dream, and she was a little at a loss about her abnormality today. She knew that the emperor would not be fair, so why didn't she sell the emperor's favor?
"The emperor is a greedy wolf, and the child can't retreat again and again, so that sooner or later he will forget the threat behind him and turn to eradicate the Bu family." Bu Qinyan found a seemingly reasonable excuse for her strength.
"That shouldn't make the emperor lose face in public." Bu Wei disagreed, he could unconditionally support his daughter in front of the emperor, so that his daughter would not be completely dependent on the emperor.However, the daughter's actions today made the relationship between the royal family and the cloth family eased and stiffened again.As the current head of the Bu family, Bu Wei needs to be responsible for the Bu family.
"It's the boy who is impulsive." Bu Qinyan said.
"Recently Yan'er in the palace should be more careful, you have angered the Holy Majesty." Buwei finally said a word of concern.
Bu Qinyan's heart warmed, and she nodded in response.
After Bu Wei left, Bu Qinyan still stood there, unable to move for a long time.There are so many thoughts in my head that I can't always make sense of them, and each one is connected to a person named An Lu.
Regarding her inexplicable emotions, Bu Qinyan chose to put it down temporarily and began to review what happened before.
Obviously, there were two groups of people who came to assassinate, and she was the one who prescribed the medicine according to the woman's words.And the men in black later didn't know about it.The people in the court who are hostile to her are nothing more than members of the royal family, but it is impossible for the emperor to turn against her now, and the only ones left are the two princes.
It is reasonable to speculate that it was the second prince who administered the medicine, so only one person was sent to assassinate him.The second prince represents Concubine De, but if Concubine De wants the position of Empress, she must first get Concubine Zhang Gui.Then why are they so eager to assassinate themselves?Thinking about it, Bu Qinyan's thoughts diverged to the last Dragon Boat Festival.The people Zhao Fangyi confessed seemed to be only related to the minority ethnic groups in the southwest, but could it be that she had missed something?
"Shadow Priest."
"Master." Ying Si came out with a shawl when he realized that Bu Qinyan hadn't returned for a long time, and waited behind the queen.
"Re-investigate the officials of the minority ethnic groups in the southwest, and investigate with the prime minister." Bu Qinyan said
