The normal journey from Hangu Pass to Xianyang by horseback is about twenty days.

Even if the cavalry marched quickly, it would take at least ten days.

However, Huo Guang and his hundred cavalrymen ran away more than two hundred war horses in less than seven days.

Traveling day and night is nothing more than this.

In the entire Qin Dynasty, he is the only one who can do this.

In front of Xianyang City, Huo Qubing ordered his soldiers, "You all should immediately go to the Imperial Guards camp outside the city to rest, and return to Hangu Pass soon!"

"promise!"

One hundred soldiers bowed in unison.

Huo Qubing did not allow them to enter the city because he did not want the people to think that something big had happened on the front line after seeing such a scene.

Although, something big did happen.

However, since the imperial court did not want them to know, they could not know.

After revealing his identity, Huo Qubing rushed to the palace.

At this time, Daji was still handling government affairs in the Xuanzheng Hall.

When he heard the news that Huo Qubing was going to see the emperor, he frowned slightly and thought to himself.

At this moment, the other party should be staying in Hangu Pass, why did they suddenly return to Xianyang?

Could something big have happened on the front line?

Thinking of this, she summoned the other party immediately without any hesitation.

After Huo Qubing arrived at the Xuanzheng Hall, he bowed deeply to Daji and said, "I pay my respects to the Empress!"

Hearing this, the latter said in a deep voice: "General, please stand up. Why did you suddenly appear here when you were not defending the enemy at Hangu Pass?"

On the way to the palace, many dignitaries noticed him.

Nowadays, many people are discussing why Huo Qubing suddenly turned back from Hangu Pass.

Of course, Prime Minister Cai Jing and Minister of War Cao Cao also knew about this matter.

However, they did not make any random guesses, but waited for news from the court.

If something happened on the front line, there is no reason to hide it from them and not tell them.

Huo Qubing turned his head and looked around, remaining silent.

Seeing this, Daji had no choice but to drive everyone out of the hall except Hu Ximei and Nie Yinniang, and then slowly said:

"These two are my trusted confidants. General, please speak directly if you have anything to say."

Huo Qubing nodded, thought for a moment, and finally said, "Your Majesty, His Majesty is seriously injured and dying!"

As soon as the words fell.

Daji, Nie Yinniang and Hu Ximei all opened their eyes wide, especially the former, whose eyes were filled with panic and worry.

After a pause, she frowned in disbelief and said, "Your Majesty is seriously injured? Why is he seriously injured?"

At this moment, her heartstrings were already tense and would break if she was not careful.

It felt like a huge rock was blocking my chest, and for a moment, it was difficult to breathe.

Huo Qubing told Daji the whole story.

Hearing this, the latter immediately became furious and said:

"Assholes! What on earth do you want to do? Your Majesty is the Emperor! The ruler of a nation! You actually let Your Majesty fight a decisive battle with a vanguard of the enemy army! What are you thinking?"

Huo Qubing didn't know how to explain, so he knelt on one knee and said, "Please forgive me, Your Majesty. Your Majesty is dying and needs immediate medical treatment, otherwise..."

Before she could finish her words, Daji felt dizzy because she couldn't accept the fact. If Hu Meiniang hadn't supported her in time, she would have fallen to the ground.

She knew that now was not the time to be sad.

Because from Huo Qubing's tone, it seemed that His Majesty could still be saved!

"How should we heal His Majesty?"

After calming herself down, Daji spoke.

Huo Qubing clasped his fists and said, "According to the military doctor, you need to scrape the bones to remove the poison and use Deer Live Grass to help. If Your Majesty can survive this disaster, your strength will be far greater than before."

Daji said without hesitation: "There is deer grass in the palace. Please bring it to His Majesty immediately for His Majesty to take."

Whenever possible, she would not stay in Xianyang, but would go to Hangu Pass to take care of Ying Yuan.

But she simply couldn't do that.

Once she leaves Xianyang City, everyone will know that something big has happened at Hangu Pass!

What could be worthy of the Queen's visit?

It must be something about the emperor!

Therefore, the more critical the moment, the longer she must stay in Xianyang City and the more she must remain calm.

Huo Qubing said bluntly: "In addition to the deer grass, we also need a miracle doctor. His name is Hua Tuo. It is said that only he can scrape the bone and cure the poison for Your Majesty."

He told the story of Zhu Danxi's acquaintance with Hua Tuo.

Without further ado, Daji invited Zhu Danxi and told him everything about Ying Yuan.

The latter said solemnly: "Please rest assured, Your Majesty, my dear friend is now in Henan Road. He only needs a letter from me to go to Hangu Pass.

To be on the safe side, I hope to go to Hangu Pass and personally take care of Your Majesty!"

Daji said, "These are extraordinary times. Thank you for your help, sir."

Zhu Danxi said, "Your Majesty, your words are too kind."

Then, Daji realized something. "General Huo, I wonder how many people know that you came to Xianyang? And how many soldiers did you bring with you?"

Huo Qubing said, "I only brought a hundred men with me, but I'm afraid the nobles in the city have already known that I'm returning to the capital."

Daji frowned deeply, "To be on the safe side, there's no need for the general to escort the deer grass. You and Mr. Zhu just need to pick up Hua Tuo and then go back to Hangu Pass together.

As for the deer grass, I will send someone else to escort it."

One hundred people...

Although the goal is not big.

But all the way back here from Hangu Pass, I'm afraid many people have already known about it.

Under such circumstances, it is inevitable that some people will commit rebellious acts.
