Chapter 711 The Emperor was too impulsive this time!
Hearing his almost arrogant words, Monk was not angry at all, but the corner of his mouth, which was naturally slightly upturned, curled up even more.
Then he said, “That’s good.”
“…”
"Then let's set off."
So everyone put out the bonfire on the grass, jumped on their horses, and started galloping forward.
Although it is said that they will die if they try to climb the mountain, this time, they only took half a day to reach the foot of the mountain. From a distance, they could see two groups of people waiting at the foot of the mountain.
Needless to say, it was naturally the people who came to pick them up that they had notified each other before.
The previous time, also near the Great Wall moat, the two sides were on the verge of a fight, but this time, the number of troops on both sides was several times greater than before, but fortunately, no fight broke out.
Just standing in line on both sides.
Soon, they rode over on horseback.
Nan Yan saw the flag of Yan State at a glance, and the person leading the troops was none other than General Xu Shifeng.
Because there were clouds and fog on the mountains, the weather here was much darker than before on the grassland, and Xu Shifeng's face was also a little gloomy.
As soon as their horses stopped, Xu Shifeng immediately stepped forward and saluted the emperor and the imperial concubine.
Then, he stood up and said, "Your Majesty is too impulsive this time!"
“…”
Nan Yan turned her head and glanced at Zhu Feng.
She couldn't help but think of the time at the border of Yue State, when Zhu Feng single-handedly attacked the Yue State camp and rescued her. Ye Zheng had the same attitude, but because he had a deeper relationship with Zhu Feng, his tone was much harsher than Xu Shifeng's.
As for Xu Shifeng, whether as a subject or as a relative, he could not remain calm as usual when he saw Zhu Feng taking such a risk.
Zhu Feng didn't say anything.
Indeed, as an emperor, what he did was too much.
Seeing that he didn't say anything, Xu Shifeng took another step forward and said in a deep voice: "Even if the emperor wants to come to rescue the imperial concubine, he should at least tell her and bring all the troops with him before taking action."
“…”
"How could you transfer Ye Zheng to Henan without consulting me at all?"
“…”
"What if the Emperor—"
"Alright," Zhu Feng frowned and said, "I'm back, aren't I?"
“…”
Xu Shifeng looked at him again.
Obviously, he was still indignant and wanted to say something else, but he was facing the emperor after all, so he could only take a step back: "Yes."
Zhu Feng then looked at him again and said, "Thank you for your hard work."
Xu Shifeng said nothing, turned around and looked at Nan Yan, then said: "Your Highness, are you all right?"
Nan Yan nodded: "I'm fine, thank you for your concern, General."
Xu Shifeng said, "I have always felt guilty for not being able to rescue the Imperial Concubine. This time, seeing that the Imperial Concubine is safe and sound, I am relieved."
Nan Yan nodded.
She could feel that Xu Shifeng was still a little unhappy, but she didn't know whether this unhappiness was directed at the emperor's "willfulness" or at herself for making the emperor "willful", so she didn't know how to say it.
He turned his head and looked at Monk and the others.
There are also quite a few people on that side.
However, one thing that surprised Nan Yan was that the person standing under the flag of the Neng Kingdom was actually Mandu!
Why is he here?
Moreover, when Nan Yan looked at him, Mandu was also looking at her.
When their eyes met, Nan Yan felt that his gaze seemed particularly deep, as if he wanted to see through her.
By the way, Mandu was once the candidate for Princess Tana’s consort.
Moreover, after the princess disappeared, he has never married and has been alone until today.
He obviously still has feelings for Princess Tana, so he probably cares more about the princess's offspring than anyone else.
No wonder he came.
Nan Yan looked at him with a complicated expression and nodded at him.
Mandu did not respond, but slowly turned his head, as if he said something to Monk and Arslan.
Nan Yan glanced at the crowd again.
It was a bit surprising that King Beili did not show up.
Judging from what happened in the palace of the Kingdom of Neng before, he should also be very concerned about his bloodline, or in other words, concerned about the clues of the jade seal.
But he didn't show up for this matter.
Could it be that Arslan, Mandu and others were doing this without telling him?
In case after confirming his blood relationship, he would immediately take action and set his sights on the jade seal?
Nan Yan thought to herself and looked over there again.
Soon, the troops on both sides were almost reorganized.
Monk came over.
The soldiers around were not on the verge of a fight, but they were still very vigilant. Looking at the Emperor of Dan, after several days' long journey, he did not look embarrassed at all. Even though there was some mud on the corners of his clothes and his hair was not smooth, the smiling corners of his mouth still made him exude a gentle aura.
This kind of man is often very fascinating.
He walked up to Nan Yan and said gently, "If you are ready, then we will be ready to set off."
Nan Yan looked back at Zhu Feng, then nodded slightly.
She asked again, "Where are we going?"
"Go up the mountain."
"Up the mountain?"
Nan Yan frowned, and Monk raised his hand, pointing to the mountaintop ahead: "We are going there."
The mountain was very high and very big. Although he pointed to the top of the mountain, no one could see it with their eyes. They could only vaguely know that it was that place.
"good."
"Go up the mountain."
So, the two groups of people began to walk up the mountain.
The mountains here are different from the mountains they had seen on the islands on Xingluo Lake before. The mountains in Peking stretch for dozens of miles as far as the eye can see, like giant beasts crawling on the vast grassland.
Although they had a large number of people, they were like a group of ants when they walked up the mountain.
As we climbed up, we had wild grass growing wildly under our feet, forming a thick blanket on the ground. We would slip whenever we stepped on it, so we could only hold hands and support each other as we slowly climbed up.
After walking for a while, they saw a section of the Great Wall.
It is the old Great Wall that is already in ruins.
The bricks and stones have turned completely white and are riddled with holes from wind and rain. Even their original appearance can no longer be seen. All that can be seen is a pile of broken bricks and tiles buried in the weeds, completely devoid of their former grandeur and magnificence.
Yet amidst the ruins, there was a sense of sadness.
Nan Yan looked at it and couldn't help sighing in her heart.
However, she could immediately feel that Zhu Feng's hand, which was holding hers, tightened slightly.
When I turned around, I saw that his eyes had become very serious.
However, it's not just about looking at the ruins.
Nan Yan followed his gaze and looked down, only to see a huge shadow on the other side of the mountain, far away in the distance.
That is a valley.
