Chapter 196: Trust a Woman's Sixth Sense
"Princess, I don't quite understand what you mean. Are you saying that the spice is taken from a deer?"
Huo Xiao was puzzled.
"It's a deer, but it's not a deer. Not every deer has it. Come with me."
Su Yunyao raised the whip and galloped towards the depths of the forest.
The two searched in the woods for an hour.
"Princess……"
Huo Xiao's eyes trembled, because they had already left the territory of Da Xia.
This forest is the territory of Eastern Liao.
As a general of Daxia, he cannot appear in the territory of Dongliao at will.
Huo Xiao moved his lips and was about to remind her to go back.
Su Yunyao suddenly made a gesture to silence him.
She jumped and sat on Lightning's back. She took out a bow and arrow from Huo Xiao's back and picked up the bow hanging diagonally on the horse's back.
Draw the bow and shoot the arrow in one go.
It's just a matter of breathing.
The musk deer, which had just emerged from the jungle, was shot in the leg.
Huo Xiao finally reacted, his eyes widened with shock, and he jumped off his horse.
The two men walked to the side of the injured musk deer, one in front and one behind.
Su Yunyao inserted a drugged needle into Lin Musk's body and took a hairpin from her head.
She had asked Xu Mubai to custom-make that hairpin at Jinjinglou.
There is a spoon on one end of the hairpin.
She quickly found the location of the sachet.
She spread her handkerchief on the ground and quickly took out the musk.
Huo Xiao was completely shocked when he saw this.
He moved his lips, but didn't know where to start.
"Although musk is expensive, it's not completely unattainable. It's just..."
Before Su Yunyao could finish her words, a rustling sound suddenly came from the woods.
Huo Xiao looked around vigilantly. The woods here were dense, and if there was someone hiding in it, it would be difficult to be discovered.
"Princess, we are already outside Daxia's territory. Let's go back first."
When I heard that rustling sound.
Su Yunyao thought it was Xuanqing who followed her.
But Xuan Qing didn't seem to be such a careless person. He had been with her for so long and had never had such a big flaw.
Could it be that they were being followed?
For safety, Huo Xiao took Su Yunyao's hand and rode directly on Lightning's back.
The two men rode their horses and galloped towards the camp.
Dudu was stunned for a moment, then quickly followed.
Just arrived at the place where the military camp is stationed.
Before Su Yunyao dismounted, she heard the two soldiers guarding the door whispering about something.
"Have you noticed that since our eldest princess came, the ninth princess of Dong Liao has stopped pestering our General Huo?"
"Don't be so arbitrary. Our eldest princess has only been here for a short time. Maybe the ninth princess will be here soon."
"I've only heard that the eldest princess is the most beautiful woman in Daxia. Seeing is believing. I used to wonder how General Huo could remain unmoved by the pursuit of a woman as beautiful as the Ninth Princess. It turns out that our eldest princess is even more beautiful."
"I heard from those who used to follow General Huo that the princess wasn't just beautiful. Back when she was in Xijing, she was able to repel a 100,000-man army simply by flipping through a picture book on the city wall."
"Hasn't it been rumored in Shengjing City that this princess is uneducated and unskillful, with only a pretty face but no real knowledge?"
"Bullshit, those are just rumors. I heard that it was the eldest princess's idea to capture the Xijing Imperial City..."
Before the two of them could finish their words, someone suddenly patted their shoulders from behind.
The two people who were chatting happily suddenly fell silent.
The two of them turned their heads almost at the same time, saw who was coming, their legs went weak, and they both knelt on the ground.
"Princess...Princess, General Huo."
Su Yunyao clenched her hands into small fists and punched Huo Xiao's chest in dissatisfaction.
"What are you doing? You're scaring them."
After saying that, she bent down again and helped the two of them up from the ground.
"Okay, get up."
There was a hint of sharpness in Huo Xiao's eyes.
After all, his soldiers were gossipy and talked about the princess behind her back, and he was caught by the princess, which made him feel a little embarrassed.
The two men stood up from the ground tremblingly, with a dense layer of cold sweat oozing from their foreheads.
It was the first time for the eldest princess and the others to see him and they didn’t understand him.
But General Huo didn't look good at the moment.
It seemed that if the eldest princess had not been there, they would have been beaten with fifty military sticks.
"Thank you very much, Princess."
The two of them were so scared that their faces turned pale and the corners of their mouths trembled.
Su Yunyao smiled and nodded, then walked towards the tiger tent.
Huo Xiao glared at the two of them, squeezing out four words from between his teeth, "This won't happen again."
The voice in the woods just now made Huo Xiao very uneasy.
He didn't know which of those people had been hiding in the woods or who had followed them into the woods.
The eldest princess kept it secret from him before she came to Dongling Pass.
But as soon as he arrived, he met the ninth princess of Dong Liao.
I'm afraid that what happened to her in the military camp at this time has already spread throughout Dong Liao.
I'm afraid that the fake third prince who went to Shengjing City to marry will receive the news soon.
This person has been on the move for several days.
He must send the princess to a safe place before the fake Third Prince arrives in Shengjing City.
"Princess."
Huo Xiao struggled for a while before he spoke.
"Princess, please return to Shengjing City. I will send more people to escort you back. I'm afraid you will have to endure some hardships on the way back. You must enter the palace before the Dong Liao marriage team arrives in Shengjing City."
Su Yunyao also realized at this time that her decision this time seemed a bit hasty.
She originally came here to give Huo Xiao a surprise.
But I didn't expect that this surprise would actually turn into a shock.
No matter how naughty she is, she will never act capriciously in such matters.
"good."
Su Yunyao nodded seriously.
"Let Pearl and Agate come in now and pack up, and we'll set off at daybreak tomorrow."
The expression on Huo Xiao's face seemed to become more serious.
"Princess, let's go now."
He didn't dare wait until daybreak.
If the person who made a noise in the woods today really had bad intentions.
I am afraid that by tomorrow morning, the road from Dongliao to Shengjing City will be full of ambushes.
They probably couldn't imagine that Su Yunyao, a princess, would walk at night.
Just leave Dongling Pass.
There should be no danger anymore.
I wonder if she had never seen Huo Xiao look so serious before.
Su Yunyao's heart began to pound unconsciously.
She even had a strong premonition that something was really going to happen.
She believes in women's sixth sense.
"Okay, let's go now."
Huo Xiao let out a long sigh after hearing this.
She had just arrived here and didn't bring much with her.
It only took Pearl and Agate half an hour to pack up everything and leave.
Huo Xiao held her in his arms.
God knows how reluctant he was at this moment, "The princess said that she would punish me when I, Desheng, return to Shengjing City!"
