Live to die! As soon as Jun Lingyun said these words, several people stood ready and prepared to fight to the death. Only Bai Xiao looked at him and hesitated to speak.
Jun Lingyun glanced at Bai Xiao:
"explain."
Bai Xiao pursed his lips and said expectantly:
"Brother Imperial, I wonder if you brought anything to eat when you came down?"
Qing Feng and Chu Wenzhong looked at each other. Could it be that Bai Xiao and Su He didn't have the life-saving medicine given by the Queen?
Yes, that medicine was specially prepared by the Queen for the Emperor's trip.
In this way, Bai Xiao and Su He have been hungry for three or four days, which is really pitiful.
When Bai Xiao saw Qing Feng and Chu Wenzhong, he looked at them sympathetically and couldn't help but ignite hope.
It seems that Brother Huang and the others really brought food. He was so hungry that stars appeared in his eyes.
Qing Feng took out two pills and handed them to Bai Xiao and Su He, whose eyes were shining.
"Brother Bai Xiao, please eat quickly."
Bai Xiao looked at the small pill in his hand and felt like crying.
What do you mean, Your Majesty and the others have been taking pills to satisfy their hunger these past few days? Can pills be taken casually?
If they had known better, they would have taken the pills on them.
Bai Xiao closed his eyes and swallowed the pill in his hand.
He was so hungry that he couldn't care much anymore. If he didn't eat something, he would feel like he was going to faint from hunger.
Su He was also helpless, since he couldn't kill anyone, he could just eat.
"I'm opening the door."
Qingfeng reminded him and opened the door on the left.
Several people waited vigilantly for a moment, but found nothing? It's just that this passage was a little narrower than others.
Qing Feng and Chu Wenzhong each rolled their eyes, not daring to look back at Jun Lingyun's reaction.
Well, who says the emperor will never make mistakes? The emperor is also a human being.
Qing Feng and Chu Wenzhong had already entered the passage first, and others followed one after another. They walked cautiously halfway.
"Boom"
There was a sudden sound, and several people were startled and paused for a moment.
"run!"
Jun Lingyun shouted loudly, and several people started flying forward quickly with their Qinggong skills, their hearts already in their throats.
Just because the walls of their passage are slowly closing.
If you don't want to be pinched into a meat pie, you have to run out of this narrow and long passage before the wall closes.
The moment Jun Lingyun stepped out of the passage, he could already feel the wall rubbing against his body.
He turned around and grabbed Bai Xiao behind him.
At this moment, random arrows were suddenly fired from the side.
"emperor!"
Qing Feng and Chu Wenzhong rushed forward too fast. By the time they discovered it, the arrow was already in front of Jun Lingyun, and it was too late to respond.
The cold light of the arrow was already reflected in Jun Lingyun's eyes, but he did not let go of Bai Xiao's hand and pulled hard.
Bai Xiao and Su He were thrown out by Jun Lingyun's force, barely able to stabilize their bodies and in shock.
A little later and their bodies would be gone.
But they saw that Jun Lingyun, who had not left the entrance of the passage in order to save them, was caught in the crossfire of arrows. He turned over and jumped several times before leaving the range of the arrow rain.
Jun Lingyun was covering his chest, where he had clearly been hit by an arrow!
"Brother Royal!"
Bai Xiao's eyes were about to burst and he rushed to Jun Lingyun's side.
"Brother, please hold on, I will definitely take you out. You still want to rule the world, and you still want to be in love with the Queen for the rest of your life, so nothing can happen to you."
Qingfeng hurriedly came behind Jun Lingyun and supported his body.
Su He was also a little nervous. After all, Jun Lingyun had just saved him. People's hearts are made of flesh.
Chu Wenzhong hurriedly took out the hemostatic medicine.
"Your Majesty, in this quiet place, we can only briefly treat the wound first. Please be patient and I will give you medicine."
Seeing this, Bai Xiao stretched out his hand to tear off Jun Lingyun's clothes.
"Crack!"
But he was slapped away ruthlessly and forcefully by Jun Lingyun.
Under the gaze of several people, Jun Lingyun held the handle of the arrow and with a little force, he pulled out the arrow and threw it to the ground with a "clang".
He had just endured the pain of the impact when he realized that the people traveling with him were all looking at him in grief.
"I'm wearing soft gold silk armor, it's okay!"
Gold-threaded soft armor? It’s a royal treasure of Yunxiao Kingdom!
"Hahahaha, I just said that the emperor is blessed with great fortune, how could he be hit by an arrow!"
Chu Wenzhong laughed heartily, and a feeling of escaping from death filled the hearts of several people.
Fortunately, their Qinggong skills are excellent. If it were anyone else, how could they still survive?
Unexpectedly, the Northern Barbarian Palace was really a dragon's pond and a tiger's den. It's no wonder that the Northern Barbarian Kingdom did not subjugate despite continuous wars for several generations.
As long as the royal family still exists, it can always be brought back to life. But it will cause other countries to suffer a big loss.
On the ground, General Chu was already furious, but he still had to appease the leaders of the four major tribes.
"Don't be anxious, leaders. We have to catch the Northern Barbarian Emperor first, so that we can all feel at ease, right?"
Chief Guna asked tentatively:
"General Chu, Emperor Yunxiao and the second prince, something happened, right? Why haven't you shown up in the past few days?"
General Chu's face darkened and he snorted coldly.
"The Northern Barbarian Emperor is as cunning as a mouse and has countless caves. The Emperor and the Northern King can only lead people to arrest him personally."
As cunning as a mouse, with countless caves?
This is the first time for several leaders to hear someone describe the king of a country like this.
Why is Chief Wengniu:
"General Chu, it's not that we intentionally stir up trouble. It's just not an option to let the army wait like this. We need a lot of food and grass every day."
General Chu thought for a moment and waved his hand.
"Loose silver! In the name of the Emperor and the Northern King, I will reward the three armies!"
With money in hand, who would be anxious for just a moment? It’s not too late to be happy.
Leader Mulun asked in confusion:
"Then, where does the money come from?"
"Combine the money in the palace treasury with the money in the Imperial Preceptor's Mansion."
General Chu thought that as long as the emperor and the others could come out of the secret passage, they could find a solution if the money was gone. If people's hearts were in chaos, it would be difficult to deal with it.
"Think of ways to distribute the money more slowly. For example, every soldier who receives money must record demographic information for subsequent management.
Leaders, I believe you have more tricks than me, a general."
Several leaders looked at each other. They knew how to delay. But they didn't know how long they would delay.
General Chu naturally knew their concerns and assured:
"The leaders can rest assured that once the Northern Barbarian Emperor and the Imperial Preceptor are captured, the tribes will be properly settled.
Now that you have made your choice, the more determined you should be at this time. The Emperor and King Bei will definitely remember your merits."
The leaders understood what General Chu meant, and it was easier to add icing on the cake than to offer help in the nick of time.
If you want to follow the new master, it is natural to provide help in times of need, and it will also gain the new master's gratitude.
"Don't worry, General Chu. We will definitely appease the morale of the army and wait for the return of Emperor Yunxiao and the second prince."
General Chu stood up, clasped his fists, sent away the four tribal leaders, and let out a long breath.
It was really exhausting for him, a military general, to do the circuitous and mediating business of a civil servant.
After General Chu dealt with the northern barbarian tribe leaders, he hurried back to the palace.
The emperor and Chu Wenzhong have not come out of the secret passage yet!
