But looking at Wei Tunan who was following Zhang Qingjiu step by step, Huo Wu endured it again and again. Finally, she couldn't bear it anymore. She stepped forward and lowered her voice, "Crown Princess, who is he?"
In fact, he saw him at the first glance.
At first, he thought this was someone who was escorting the Crown Princess back, but his actions and eyes, which clearly protected her carefully, clearly meant that was not the case.
Moreover, this man seemed to be only in his early twenties. In terms of appearance and demeanor, I am afraid that there are not many people in the capital who can compare with him. Not to mention, when he saw this man for the first time, he felt inexplicable.
I feel that there are many things hidden in his eyes, he must be a person who has experienced great storms.
He didn't know what their crown princess had done in the past eight months, but it was definitely not what he thought.
"Him?" Zhang Qingjiu glanced back, his eyes flashed, and he was about to speak, but was stopped by Wei Tunan.
"My name is Chuchen." Wei Tunan nodded towards Huo Wu.
Hearing these two words, Zhang Qingjiu was stunned for a moment, but he soon understood.
No one knows better than him what the word Wei Tunan means to the soldiers of Da Hui.
Just ask, if a person who has been dead in their hearts for nineteen years suddenly appears again, and his appearance is exactly the same as nineteen years ago, what kind of sensation will there be?
"I call him Honghong, he is a friend of mine." Zhang Qingjiu also smiled faintly, helping Wei Tunan hide his identity again.
After all, even if she says that this is her uncle, someone has to believe it now!
Honghong? Chuchen? Huowu went through it in his mind, but he didn't expect that there was such a young master in any house in Shangjing City. In the end, he had no choice but to nod his head, "Thank you, Mr. Chuchen, for escorting my princess back."
Huo Wu bit the word "Crown Princess" very hard.
Wei Tunan was stunned for a moment, with a strange look in his eyes. He glanced at Zhang Qingjiu, who was next to him and didn't know anything about it. He raised the corners of his lips and clasped his fists at Huo Wu: "General Huo Wu is joking. This is what I should do."
Isn't it just the right thing for an uncle to accompany his niece home?
Huo Wu choked at these words and had no choice but to kick his horse to make the march go faster.
After all, he had to invite His Highness to come back quickly, otherwise he was afraid that the corner of the Prince's Mansion would be in danger.
The army moved towards Longxiang Mountain quickly. Wei Tunan narrowed his eyes, turned to look at Zhang Qingjiu, sighed, and said in a somewhat helpless tone, "Are you so anxious? You can't wait even a quarter of an hour?"
Zhang Qingjiu lowered her eyes and touched her still flat belly with her fingers. She knew why Wei Tunan asked this, and she also knew that it was best not to go while she was pregnant with the child.
But, she really couldn't wait.
She just wanted to see her dog man as soon as possible and know that he was safe and sound. She could put down everything else first.
Zhang Qingjiu didn't say anything, but Wei Tunan understood what she meant, "That's all, go ahead if you want to."
If you protect yourself more, you should be fine.
Not far away, Huo Wu's instructions suddenly came, "All officers and soldiers listen to the order and prepare to enter the Dragon Elephant!"
Zhang Qingjiu's eyes flashed, and he suddenly raised his head. In front of him were mountains and valleys, blocking out the sky and the sun.
On the other side, deep inside Longxiang Mountain.
At the end of the lush woods, there is a cliff covered with grass. The open space that should be full of life is now filled with the strong smell of blood.
After kicking away a corpse blocking his side, Murong Chunlai looked at the man in front of him who was pressing forward step by step. Even in such a tragic environment, he still maintained a noble demeanor, with a trace of madness flashing in his eyes.
envy.
For eight months, he thought countless times that he could kill him while he was sick, but he didn't expect that this person could actually turn the situation around every time.
This person, no matter from every aspect, was really his lifelong rival, Murong Chunlai.
But since Chu Lan came in person today, it proved that his guess was not wrong, and the news he released also worked!
Swiping the knife in his hand into the void, Murong Chunlai suddenly stood still, suddenly changing his embarrassing and slumping posture, "Chu Lan, you are deliberately planning to lead the army on an expedition, but in fact you just want to know her whereabouts, right?"
Chu Lan paused for a moment, tightened the sword in his hand a little, and his deep eyes were like autumn shadows on a cold pond.
Murong Chunlai took another step back and said, "Do you think that if the officers and soldiers of Dahui knew that their beloved Crown Prince was just a lustful and foolish man, would they still follow him as loyally as before?"
Chu Lan took a sip and stepped forward again.
Seeing the abyss behind him, Murong Chunlai's eyes turned cold and a strange smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, "Chu Lan! If I die, you will never see her again in this life!"
Finally, the figure that was pressing closer and closer stopped, "Where is she?"
"Hahahaha!" After hearing this, Murong Chunlai couldn't help but burst out laughing, "Sure enough, Chu Lan, you are really here for her! What a great prince of Dahui who serves the country and the people, you all listen.
Here we are, do you want to follow such a master?!"
There is only a small group of men behind Chu Lan, no more than a hundred, but each of them can fight one against a hundred. He is the well-deserved ace in the Dahui army and Chu Lan's confidant.
It was them who slaughtered Murong Chunlai's thousand elites and forced him here!
Murong Chunlai looked at the silent soldiers and raised the corners of his mouth again. He would not die today because he wanted Chu Lan to die in despair!
Letting him bear the eternal infamy and alienation from his family is just his first step!
So what if he was in jail? He could still turn defeat into victory! She told herself that she would risk death and survive.
By killing Chu Lan, he could go find her with peace of mind.
But now, it's not enough.
Murong Chunlai took a deep breath: "Chu Lan, you can choose to kill me to prove that you did not start this war for her, but in this case, you will never know where she is in this life."
Chu Lan pursed her lips and asked again: "Where is she?"
"Come here and I'll tell you." The curve of the corners of Murong Chunlai's lips became more and more strange, and his body moved to the side.
Chu Lan took a step forward.
"Your Highness! No!" At this moment, the soldiers behind Chu Lan exclaimed, "Be careful of fraud!"
Chu Lan didn't look back, she just followed Murong Chunlai's footsteps and took a step forward again.
Behind him, all the soldiers knelt down with a "pop" sound, "Your Highness! The lives of the subordinates and others were saved by His Highness the Crown Prince. His Highness the Crown Prince requested that the subordinates and others will not hesitate to die, but please Your Highness, safety is the first priority!"
Hearing these words, Murong Chunlai was startled for a moment, and earth-shaking hatred suddenly emerged in his eyes. Why should he? Why should these people still follow him so wholeheartedly after he made it so clear?
He is not willing to give in!
Seeing Chu Lan take another step forward, Murong Chunlai showed a sneer on his lips, tightened the scimitar in his hand, and rushed forward.
Chu Lan was about to avoid it, but the scimitar suddenly emitted a strange light, and then it slashed towards Chu Lan in a strange arc, as if it had eyes.
"This knife..." Chu Lan's pupils shrank suddenly, and he heard a "puff" sound, and the blade cut through Chu Lan's clothes.
Suddenly, a heartbreaking shout came from not far away.
