Although the back mountain is not high, it is still a mountain. With Xue Yao's current physical fitness, he is completely unsuitable for physical work such as mountain climbing.

Jing Yi supported him and prepared to turn his head.

Xue Yao held on and said, "Jing'er, take me to see Hu Zi."

Jing Yi glanced at Xue Yao in surprise, "Hu Zi was injured more seriously than you, in two days you can walk around on your own, I will take you to see him."

Jing Yi is not good at lying, but he has told this lie so many times that even he himself is a little dubious, so he doesn't feel uncomfortable when he says it.It's just that under Xue Yao's direct gaze, he still turned his head to the side.

"Sorry, I didn't protect Huzi well."

This person is always so stupid, always taking some of his faults onto himself, Xue Yao hugged him into his arms,

"Jing'er, you know, no one has ever blamed you. We all know Hu Zi, if he is willing to sacrifice for someone or something, it must be because he thinks it is worth it, whether it is for you or for Me, do you understand? If you really want to ask who caused such a result, it is not so much you, but me. If this is the case, even if we both owe him, it will be okay for us to go together when the time comes. "

"I know you feel remorse in your heart, why not me these days, that's why I want to visit him, even if he dies, at least I need to know where he is buried, and I can visit him every day when I have time, at least it seems that I am It wouldn’t be too useless to be a big brother, I didn’t fight side by side with him, I didn’t protect him well, and I couldn’t see him for the last time, I’m not worthy to be his brother.”

As Xue Yao spoke, his mood became more and more depressed.

If it wasn't for acquiescing him to follow him to the palace, if it wasn't for his refusal to go back to the barracks, if it wasn't for him, Huzi might be happy where he is.Even if it's like the last life, if you divide your things early and live as a soldier in some military camp, you can at least survive.

Jing Yi had never seen Xue Yao cry before, so when the tears slid down the cheeks of the two of them to their necks, Jing Yi was a little panicked.

He had never seen Xue Yao so vulnerable, never before.

"Xi Nian, under the circumstances at that time, no one knew whether he could live until tomorrow, so I agreed with him to lure away a large number of pursuers. I always hoped that he would come back. I really always hoped that he would come back. Later, Uncle Fa died, the carriage lost control, I thought we would die too, I really didn't mean to let Huzi die."

Seeing Xue Yao crying, Jing Yi was flustered and couldn't wait to explain.

"Stupid or not, I never blamed you," Xue Yao calmed down a little, and then hugged her tightly again,

"Is the tiger buried here? I observed it for a long time before, only this place is condescending, and it is close to the barracks."

"Well, Little Six and the others said that the place Huzi most wants to stay in his life is the military camp. The view from the top of the back mountain is good, and he can always see the military camp."

Xue Yao looked up, but didn't speak.

Jing Yi thought he was going up the mountain now,

"You have only recovered for a short time today. If you climb the mountain, your body will not be able to bear it. If you really can't wait, I will let someone make a soft sedan chair and carry you up tomorrow."

Xue Yao shook his head, "No need, I want to go up in person. Do you know who killed the tiger?"

Jing Yi pondered for a while, "The situation at that time was all told by Wu Chongyang after the fact, and I don't really understand it."

"Then we'll go to him and ask him, since he's idle anyway."

The two went back to the camp supporting each other. When they heard that Wu Chongyang was in the Chinese army's tent, Xue Yao thought that after waking up, he didn't thank Marshal Wu seriously.The soldiers in front of the door saw His Highness the Sixth Highness coming, they didn't dare to neglect, they turned their heads and went to the tent to communicate, but after a while, Wu Chongyang came out to welcome the two into the tent.

There were a few military officers in the big tent who were discussing military affairs. When they saw them coming, they saluted and left.

Jing Yi smiled, "I don't seem to be here at the right time, did I interrupt your discussion?"

Wu Chongyang was pouring tea, he raised his head and smiled, "Well, we've already finished talking about it, it's all trivial matters, it's rare for His Highness to come over, how can it be considered an interruption."

Wu Quan also echoed the two sentences, and was very happy to see Xue Yao looking good,

"Brother Xue seems to be recovering well. I believe he will be alive again in a few days."

Xue Yao cupped his fists, "Thanks to the commander for taking me in, Xue is very grateful."

Wu Quan waved his hand, "It's such a trivial matter, don't worry about it, brother Xue, don't let it go, I said earlier, my Wu Quan camp will always open the door for you. But there is one thing, I would like to Discuss with the two of you, because brother Xue has not woken up before, I can't make His Highness worry anymore."

He is a military commander, and he always speaks directly. Although Xue Yao and the two of them didn't feel that there was something wrong, their hearts thumped.

Jing Yi straightened his expression, "I don't know what's going on, the commander-in-chief can tell you directly."

Wu Quan, "That day when you two first arrived in our camp, I wrote a note and sent it to the palace, but I never got a response. I couldn't help feeling a little uneasy, so I asked people to go and inquire about the news."

Xue Yao was still puzzled, "But what's the meaning of embarrassment?"

Wu Chongyang saw that he didn't ask the question, so he said, "In the Shenji Dynasty, the army has always been forbidden to interact with the prince, and the management of the army is also very strict, so since my father took over the military power, he has been stationed in Yingkou, and he must not Going out is also because it is forbidden by the court."

"Then this time?" Hearing what he said, Xue Yao became a little worried.

Jing Yi frowned and said nothing.

Wu Quan smiled, "You two don't have to worry. This time, Chongyang took the guards there. Strictly speaking, it didn't violate the military order, let alone saved His Highness the Sixth Highness. His Majesty Sixth Highness did not do anything good, so I wrote a memorial in advance to inform His Majesty. I believe that if he knows the ins and outs of the matter, he should not pursue it further. If he does not report it in a hurry, it will be the most troublesome thing if he is exposed in the future. .”

It was only then that Xue Yao understood that Wu Quan's move was safe.

Wu Quan continued, "It took nearly seven days for the paper to be handed over. According to the emperor's usual style, he never delays paperwork from the military department, so I feel a little uneasy."

Jing Yi was taken aback, "Could it be that the father had a headache again, so he was delayed."

Wu Quan nodded, "There is a possibility. I heard that the crown prince's situation after returning to the palace is not very good. Empress Xue is very angry, and there is news that the censor has been keeping a close eye on the Xue family recently."

Xue Yao listened for a long time, and finally found something wrong,

"Isn't there any mention of His Royal Highness's situation? The emperor shouldn't just ignore such a big matter as the prince's disappearance."
