Chapter 109:
A Horse Stumbles The guards who went to Yanzhou to report the news to the prince rode two horses, and they arrived at Yanzhou City at noon the next day.
After finding Commander Yun, the exhausted guards rolled to the ground when they got off the horse.
With cracked lips, they said hoarsely and anxiously: "Commander Yun, take me to see the prince!"
Yun Yi was shocked! What happened in the capital? He
hurriedly pulled up his arm, ignored the crowd, and used his lightness skills to fly into the temporary marshal's tent.
After Qin Wang Zhao Defang heard the report from the guards who rushed from the palace in the capital, a cold light shot out from his handsome eyes!
[Zhao Yuanfen! Since you are determined to die, I will grant your wish after I return to the capital! 】
His eyes swept over Yun Yi beside him, "Yun Yi, take Siyu back to the capital immediately and make sure to protect the princess's safety.
If the princess wants to act rashly, you must stop her!
Tell the princess that after I deal with the anti-epidemic issues in Yanzhou, I will return to the capital to seek justice for the Luo family!"
The prince was going to risk his life for his beloved, and Zhao Yuanfen's head would not stay on his neck for long. Yun Yi took the order and left!
Siyu was sweating all over, and a strand of messy hair was stained on her flushed face by sweat.
She was busy treating patients every day and forgot about fatigue. Only when she lay in bed for two hours at night would she feel sore all over and exhausted. As soon as her head touched the pillow, she would fall into a deep sleep. She would wake up immediately at the first rooster crow of the next day and then devote herself to the work of diagnosing and saving lives.
: "Miss Siyu, the prince orders you to return to the capital with me as soon as possible!"
Siyu, who was squatting on the ground feeding medicine to the patient, held the medicine bowl in her hand, raised her head and wiped the sweat on her face with her sleeve, "The epidemic here has not been completely eliminated. Why does the prince want me to go back to the capital with you?"
"Something happened in the Luo Mansion. Luo Ning and several guards were injured by Prince Ji. The prince was worried that the princess would act rashly in anger, so he sent us back to protect and persuade the princess."
Siyu threw the medicine bowl away immediately after hearing it!
: "Hurry! Brother Yun, let's ride back to the capital as fast as we can!"
Yun Yi and Siyu rode two war horses, and after leaving Yanzhou City in a hurry, they spurred their horses and galloped towards the direction of the capital!
After the horse galloped for more than 200 miles, it was already dark. The outlines of the villages they passed by could not be seen clearly under the dim lights. The gloomy sky covered the night with a huge black cloth. Siyu, who was not good at riding, suddenly lost her footing and fell off the galloping horse!
"Ah!..."
Yun Yi heard Siyu's scream and looked to the side. He quickly jumped off the horse's back and grabbed Siyu who was about to fall to the ground, hugging the girl's soft and delicate body.
He touched the ground with his toes and flew back to his horse. The warhorse had slowed down in time.
Siyu, whose head almost hit the ground, turned pale with fear. She tightly hugged Yun Yi's neck with both hands, and her heart almost flew out of her throat.
"Miss Siyu, are you hurt?" Yun Yi asked with concern while reining in his warhorse.
Siyu, who was so scared that her soul was out of her body, felt the hot air from Yun Yi's mouth spraying on her pink neck when he spoke.
A masculine breath made her face blush, and her heart was beating like a deer!
Siyu hurriedly let go of her arms that were tightly hugging Yun Yi's neck, "Brother Yun, I'm fine!
You...you let me go."
Yun Yi also blushed, jumped off his horse, and quickly put Miss Siyu, who was in his arms, on the ground.
Both of them blushed with shame, but fortunately, the night covered no one's sight. Yun Yi hesitantly apologized, "Sorry! Miss Siyu, I...I didn't mean to offend you, I was in a hurry..."
Siyu's heart was still beating wildly, she lowered her pink neck and looked at her toes, interrupting Yun Yi's apology, "Brother Yun, Siyu doesn't blame you.
If it weren't for your quick reaction and agility, Siyu's neck would have been broken.
Brother Yun, thank you for saving Siyu. A life!
Siyu has no way to repay you, in the future... in the future, if Brother Yun is injured or critically ill, Siyu will definitely save your life to repay the favor. "
Yun Yi couldn't help laughing in his heart, "Siyu, you still want me to be a little bit better! I don't want to be injured or critically ill."
Siyu also realized the inappropriateness of what she said just now. Even if she was thinking about how to repay the life-saving grace, how could she want others to be injured or critically ill!
She covered her face with embarrassment and laughed!
"Brother Yun, the young lady always says that I am bold and broad-minded, simple-minded and speak without thinking. What Siyu said just now is really inappropriate, you must not take it to heart."
Yun Yi also smiled, "Miss Siyu has a pure and kind nature, so she is simple-minded. I won't take it to heart."
Siyu then put down her hands that were covering her face and looked back. The outline of the horse she was riding could no longer be seen, and she could only hear it neighing in a low voice.
: "Brother Yun, my horse may be injured. What should I do?"
Yun Yi walked back to the horse lying on the ground, squatted down and took a careful look, and said with regret, "The horse's front hoof may have stepped on a pit on the ground and broken. What a pity for this good horse!"
Siyu followed, squatted down and stroked the horse's head, tears of heartache.
: "Brother Yun, don't throw it away. I will help it fix its broken leg."
Yun Yi looked up and looked around. There was a little light in the distance in the darkness. There should be a village there.
: "Miss Siyu, wait here for a while. I'll go over there to find a few people to help take care of the horses."
Siyu nodded.
Yun Yi performed Qinggong and flew towards the village in the distance.
After a while, he returned with several young men, carrying lanterns and torches.
Siyu, who had been waiting anxiously on the dark road, immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
Yun Yi led the men to him, and under the light of the lantern, he pointed to the injured horse lying on the ground and said, "This horse has injured its front hoof. You five people are responsible for taking good care of it. When we are free, we will come back to get the horse."
Several young men happily agreed in unison.
A high price of one or two silver coins a day just to take good care of a horse, such a good job is better than pie in the sky!
Yun Yi commanded several people to move the horse to the side of the road.
In the light of the torch, Siyu helped the warhorse to connect the broken front hoof and tied it with a few short wooden sticks.
War horses are spiritual, and they can sense that their masters are treating their injuries and will not abandon them. The horse's head kept rubbing against Siyu affectionately.
Yun Yi took out a hundred taels of silver and paid them, and reminded them, "Build a thatched hut here, and the fodder should be of finer quality. I
'll pay you a hundred taels of silver first. When I come back to get the horse, if you take good care of it, there will be a reward."
This hundred taels of silver was enough for them to live on for a year. The leading man excitedly took the silver, "Don't worry, sir! We will take good care of this horse as if it were our own parents!"
Business was more important, so Siyu had to leave the injured warhorse behind and ride back to the capital overnight with Yun Yi on the same horse.
On the bumpy horseback, Yun Yi held Miss Siyu's soft and delicate body in his arms, and sniffed the virgin fragrance of the girl. The 23-year-old bachelor couldn't help but feel excited!
Siyu didn't care about being shy, and her back was pressed against Brother Yun's broad and strong chest. With the ups and downs of the horse's hooves, her heart was like a panicked little rabbit jumping around.
………………
Mo Yan walked into Ning Xinyuan in a hurry and said to Yingxue who was guarding outside the door, "Miss Yingxue, please tell the princess that Prince Zhao Yuanfen of Ji is out of the city today."
Yingxue agreed and went into the house to report to the princess.
After listening to Yingxue's report, Luo Li immediately ordered Mo Yan to go in and answer.
After entering the house, Mo Yan bowed and clasped his fists!
"Reporting to the princess, Prince Ji Zhao Yuanfen is leaving the city today and taking people to the south of the city for horse racing."
Luo Li immediately perked up!
Her eyebrows raised, and a cold and sharp light flashed in her eyes: "Prince Ji's death date has come, and this day next year will be his death anniversary!
Hong Gu, you and I will leave the city, and I will avenge Luo Ning and the others!"
Mo Yan was so scared that he quickly spoke out to stop him, "Princess, you must not!
If you want revenge, you have to wait for the prince to come back and make careful plans before taking action!"
Luo Li glared with her beautiful eyes!
"Mo Yan, are you going to stop me?"
Mo Yan's face flushed with anxiety, "Princess, if it's anything else, Mo Yan would never dare to stop me, but you must listen to my advice on this matter!
Prince Ji is a prince, and he has many guards with high martial arts skills around him. Even if the princess is lucky enough to succeed, it will be extremely difficult to escape.
Assassinating a prince is a crime punishable by the execution of all nine generations of the family! You have to think about your family in the Luo Mansion, and don't act impulsively!"
Luo Li's dark eyes turned a few times and his face sank!
She stretched out two slender white fingers, "Mo Yan, this princess gives you two choices.
One is to stay out of it and wait obediently in the Qin Palace. The life and death of this princess has nothing to do with you Qin Palace.
The other is for you to help me kill the dog Ji Wang and seek justice for your princess!
...Choose!"
Mo Yan thought about it for a moment in embarrassment, knowing that he couldn't hold it back. How could he let the princess take Hong Gu to die alone?
He gritted his teeth and made up his mind!
"Mo Yan, choose the second one. Princess, you wait in the Qin Palace, and I will take people to take the dog life of Ji Wang!"
Luo Li smiled cunningly and winked at Hong Gu. The coolies in the Qin Palace are easy to use!
When she turned around and looked at Mo Yan, her expression became serious: "I must avenge this grudge myself!
In order to avoid involving the Luo Mansion and the Prince of Qin's Mansion, we must find a scapegoat in advance.
Mo Yan, take your men to kidnap two of the Second Prince Zhao Yuanxi's guards... No!
Prince Ji and Prince Chen Zhao Yuanxi have always been in cahoots with each other, and they are close to each other. We can't use the Second Prince as a scapegoat."
Luo Li frowned as she calculated.
She looked up at Mo Yan and asked, "Mo Yan, with which prince did Prince Ji Zhao Yuanfen have conflicts in the past?"
"Last year, Prince Ji had a conflict with the third prince Prince Xiang Zhao Heng over the liquor business.
Prince Ji took advantage of the people he brought with him at the time, and Prince Xiang's people suffered losses.
The matter was finally brought to the attention of the emperor, who gave each of them fifty lashes of the board, scolded his two sons, and then suppressed the matter."
Luo Li narrowed her eyes, "Okay! Let Prince Xiang be the scapegoat!
Mo Yan, take a few shadow guards with high kung fu skills, find a way to kidnap two of Prince Xiang's guards, take them to the vicinity of the Cross Hill Tavern in the south of the city, and then do this and that..."
Mo Yan secretly admired him!
[If anyone says that our Princess Qin is a fool again, that person's head must have been kicked in by a donkey! ]
The princess had made up her mind, and Mo Yan had no choice but to obey her orders and leave.
