Chapter 459: Emperor Wu Su is anxious, and the courtesy is reciprocated
Feng Xiang was just very angry, so he quickly covered Hu Lie's neck with his arms and tried to change the subject.
"General Wei, how did you find out that Yuwen Tiancheng had hidden weapons?"
They were not far away, but none of them noticed that Prince Xijin had this thing in his sleeve.
Wei Ting's expression was slightly stunned. He raised his head and glanced at the warm sun hanging in the blue sky.
Before he drew his sword, a strange flash suddenly appeared from Yuwen Tiancheng's sleeves, which looked like flickering sunlight and attracted his attention. Therefore, Wei Ting has been secretly on guard against the hidden weapons in Yuwen Tiancheng's sleeves.
Wei Ting smiled and sighed: "Looks like I have to check today's almanac when I get home."
After saying this, he went to report to the emperor who was supporting the rear.
Feng Xiang and Hu Lie turned their heads to look at Wei Ting's back. Although they didn't know what had happened, they could both sense that Beili's luck was invincible now, and no matter what they did, everything would go smoothly.
Xijin's army was suppressed, and Emperor Wu Su sent elite troops to pursue Yuwen Tiancheng.
However, this important task was not entrusted to others. In order to save as much time as possible, the emperor led the troops himself, and the finishing work was given to Wei Ting and Feng Xiang.
Wei Ting looked at the military horses that were galloping towards the northeast, raising a cloud of dust. The man in the front was wearing black armor and was galloping on his horse with a determined attitude.
Originally, Emperor Wu Su did not need to personally take charge of the pursuit of Yuwen Tiancheng; the generals of the Northern Li Army could do the job.
But the emperor personally took action, which firstly showed his importance and secondly showed that he did not want to waste time on this matter.
Emperor Wu Su became anxious.
When Wei Ting first heard about the seven-day agreement, he thought it was difficult to achieve. Now it seems that the emperor was not just talking casually.
He shook his head, his lips curved, as if laughing at the fact that the emperor would be so impatient one day.
Wei Ting stared at the bright sunlight, which made his eyes ache and a thin layer of tears appeared.
"Nothing can stop the emperor from marrying the queen, unless Yuwen Tiancheng has nine lives. General Wei should just let it go."
Feng Xiang rode past Wei Ting on his horse and suddenly said this.
Wei Ting exhaled a breath and poked the butt of a passing horse with his scabbard. Feng Xiang's shouting was muffled in the wind.

Xijin Palace.
Gao Zhaoyue and Yuwen Tianqing were locked in the same room. There were guards outside guarding them, and they couldn't even take a step out of the door.
Yuwen Tianqing's memory of his mother has become vague. Over the years, Gao Zhaoyue has been in contact with Yuwen Tiancheng since he faked his death, but he has never sent him any message.
Yuwen Tianqing sat aside, silent and only coughing occasionally. He also didn't know how to get along with his mother who had come back from the dead. There was a sense of strangeness between the two of them.
Gao Zhaoyue looked at his son, his eyes full of tenderness and guilt, but he didn't know where to start to break the silence.
Suddenly, there was a sound of something heavy falling outside the door, and then the door was pushed open violently, and a gust of cold wind mixed with dust from outside blew in.
Yuwen Tianqing sat up straight with vigilance, but all his weapons had been taken away, so he could only look at the uninvited guest who came in in vain.
Gao Zhaoyue stepped in front of him and said, "Don't be afraid, Tian Qing."
Yuwen Tianqing frowned and stared at her back.
The visitor was dressed in black, as light as a swallow. He closed the door swiftly and stood quietly by the door.
Under the mask, those eyes seemed to contain thousands of words and were filled with complex emotions.
A red spider crawled onto Gao Zhaoyue's fingernails and landed on the scarlet nails, hiding very discreetly. She asked, "Who are you?"
The man said, "I'm here to save you, hurry up and leave!"
It was the voice of a young girl, which gave Gao Zhaoyue a strange feeling.
She couldn't be sure whether this person was Yuwen Tiancheng's man, or a bait sent by him to deliberately lure her and Yuwen Tianqing apart so that he could attack him.
Gao Zhaoyue said calmly: "Where can we escape to? Xijin is already in Yuwen Tiancheng's pocket, and his people are everywhere."
The girl said anxiously, "Yuwen Tiancheng was injured by Beili's General Zhenbei. He is busy hiding now and has no time to take care of you. I have dealt with the guards outside. You can leave now!"
When Yuwen Tianqing heard that Yuwen Tiancheng was injured, he laughed coldly and said, "I thought His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had some clever tricks, but he turned out to be a desperate criminal."
Gao Zhaoyue said suspiciously, "We don't know each other. The girl is so kind that I have to be on guard."
The girl took off her mask and revealed her face.
Gao Zhaoyue was a little dazed. Yuwen Tianqing looked at her eyes and felt a strange yet familiar feeling in his heart.
He asked tentatively: "You...you are Tianxin?"
Yuwen Tianqing went to Beili and looked for her whereabouts. He knew that she was still alive.
Gao Zhaoyue's eyes instantly became moist and tears blurred her vision.
A cold voice interrupted: "My name is Lanling, not Tianxin. Maybe I had some relationship with you before, but now, I am just Lanling."
Yuwen Tianqing asked: "Since you said you were just Lanling, why did you come to save us?"
Lanling's answer was simple and direct.
"I also want to see what the person who gave birth to me looks like, so that I won't regret it later."
She looked at Gao Zhaoyue who was shaking with tears in front of her, frowned and said, "As for my family, I don't need them."
After saying that, Lan Ling glanced outside and urged, "You guys leave now."
Yuwen Tianqing also knew that now was not the time to reminisce or feel sentimental, and he had to leave here early.
Gao Zhaoyue stood there, covering her face with her hands.
Yuwen Tianqing had already followed Lanling to the door. He turned around and called out, "Mother!"
Gao Zhaoyue wiped the tears from her face, and when she raised her head again, the sadness in her eyes had been washed away, and she actually forced out a smile.
"Why should we leave? Kids, you don't think Yuwen Tiancheng can come back, do you?"
Yuwen Tianqing's face changed, he understood what she meant.
Gao Zhaoyue stretched out his hand towards him and said, "Tian Qing, this opportunity is in front of you. I can help you."
Lan Ling said helplessly: "Don't you want to live the life of an ordinary person? Do you have to get involved in the royal family's struggle?"
Yuwen Tianqing held Lanling's shoulders and said, "Tianxin, no matter whether you admit your identity or not, you will always be my sister in my heart."
"Whenever you feel tired, you can come back anytime. Wherever I am is always your home."
Lanling watched Yuwen Tianqing walk towards Gao Zhaoyue. The two stood together. She shook her head and disappeared out the door.
Yuwen Tianqing asked: "What do you want to do?"
Gao Zhaoyue raised his fingertips, looked at the poisonous insect crawling on his nails, and said, "The Beili army launched a surprise attack, so let's return the favor."
