Mo Shizi looked at the remnant soldiers everywhere, frowning, turned around and wanted to go back, but was stopped by two lieutenants.
"Your Majesty, this is the emperor's order for you to lead troops to the West Sea. If you leave,
, even if Gu Shengling is in vain."
Hearing this, Mo Shizi's face was gloomy, he pursed his lips and said nothing. He took a deep breath and had no choice but to go back, but he did not forget to turn around and give a few instructions to the guards,
The deputy general listened and probably went to report to the emperor.
The deputy general smiled coldly and did not stop him.
It's useless to ask the emperor about this matter.
Sure enough, after waiting for several days, there was no news, and Mo Shizi was guarded very tightly and could not leave even an inch.
"Who allowed you to follow me like this?" Mo Shizi asked angrily.
The two lieutenants seemed not to hear, until one of them was annoyed by the question, and then they answered patiently: "Your Majesty should have a clear mind about this matter, so why bother to expose it?"
Mo Shizi was suddenly startled: "Is it the emperor?"
"Young Master Mo has traveled thousands of miles from the capital to come here. Do you need me to tell you what you have in mind?"
"That is, you treat other people as fools. If the emperor had not thought of Mo Shizi's past achievements, just breaking into the military camp without permission would be enough to execute you."
Hearing this, Mo Shizi felt a breath stuck in his heart and almost couldn't swallow it, he gritted his teeth tightly.
It was actually the emperor's order.
…
Emperor Mingwen's every move and move by Mo Shizi was in the eyes of Emperor Mingwen, including what he said every day, who he met, and what he had eaten. Without exception, he asked very clearly.
Emperor Mingwen waved his hand and said he knew it, and dismissed it. Eunuch Mo on the side curled his lips: "No wonder even the little prince of Beibei doesn't like Prince Mo. Prince Mo is really...too eager for quick success."
When Beibei was mentioned, he just happened to lift the curtain and come in. He had a small round hat on his head. He had a cute tiger-like head and a pair of big round eyes, "Uncle Huang!"
Seeing Beibei, Emperor Mingwen's face turned pretty, and he waved to him.
Beibei pouted: "Uncle Huang, my mother has known about my eldest brother's existence ever since. She prepares gifts for me when she has time. She has already sewn more than a dozen sets of clothes overnight. I'm really worried that my eyes will be damaged by exhaustion."
He is not jealous when he makes clothes for his eldest brother, he just feels sorry for his mother.
Emperor Mingwen frowned: "Your mother lights up lamps and makes clothes every day?"
"Almost, my mother's skills are getting better and better. No, the embroidery on my clothes was sewed by my mother casually." Beibei pointed to a small daisy on the cuff, which was an elegant yellow color.
It is indeed vivid.
"When the emperor sees your mother, he will persuade her privately." After Emperor Mingwen finished speaking, he tested Beibei's homework as usual.
Bei Bei still answered fluently.
The two chatted for a while. The little guy Beibei felt very self-conscious and would arrange reasonable time for himself every day. No, it was time to practice calligraphy. He bowed down to Emperor Mingwen respectfully and excused himself.
"Uncle Huang, I'm leaving now."
After watching Beibei leave, Emperor Mingwen suddenly had a bold idea in his mind and took a look at the sand map.
In the past two days, Emperor Mingwen became very busy, often without touching the ground. Chu Yunning came several times, and several lieutenants were reporting things in the camp.
In desperation, Chu Yunning had to wait for a while, sometimes for half an hour or more than an hour.
Chu Yunning touched the tip of her nose. Are you so busy?
When she met Eunuch Mo, Chu Yunning couldn't help but ask: "Is the emperor so busy recently? Is there any news?"
Eunuch Mo turned his head and looked inside, then shook his head. He had seen the emperor's infatuation the whole time.
"Chu Shanggong, I don't know much about this matter. Maybe I am busy."
After saying a few words in a vague manner without saying anything, Chu Yunning sighed and turned back to the tent, holding an embroidery stretcher in his hands and starting to do needlework.
evening
It was just getting dark when Bixiu suddenly said to Chu Yunning, "Chu Shang Palace, the emperor just sent Eunuch Mo to deliver a message, asking you to come over immediately."
Chu Yunning raised her eyes, put down the work in her hands, stepped forward, and entered the tent. She saw Emperor Mingwen wearing black coarse cloth clothes and carrying a bag on his back. He threw one to her and pointed at it.
The cyan men's clothing next to it.
"What is this?" Chu Yunning was confused and looked at him in confusion.
Emperor Mingwen said: "I have arranged everything in the military camp. The generals have experienced hundreds of battles and are calm. Nothing will happen for the time being. I plan to go to the Jokhang Temple with you."
Jokhang Temple?
Chu Yunning was suddenly stunned. Ever since she knew that Chu'er was in the Jokhang Temple, her mind was now filled with Chu'er's figure.
I was thinking about his every move and even dreamed of talking to Chu Er.
Emperor Mingwen frowned: "What, are you stupid?"
"I..." Chu Yunning was a little excited, and Emperor Mingwen said again: "This time we will leave incognito and quietly. I have already said hello to Beibei. Don't worry, I will keep most of the secret guards around me.
Leave it all to Beibei, and Beibei's diet is also strictly controlled, and no one will take advantage of it."
Chu Yunning sniffed when she heard this. He had actually arranged everything, so that she had no worries at all.
"Then I would like to thank you, Your Majesty."
"You don't need to call the emperor when you go out, just call me Jingheng."
Jingheng, Xiao Jingheng, no one had called this name for many years, and he almost couldn't remember his own name.
"Then I'm offended." Chu Yunning boldly called out Brother Jingheng.
Emperor Mingwen cleared his throat and coughed twice: "You change your clothes first, I will wait for you outside, and we will set off immediately."
"good!"
Under the moonlight, two horses galloped past, heading towards the outside of the pass. One was black and the other was green. They traveled day and night under the stars and the moon.
Emperor Mingwen understood Chu Yunning's desire to see Chu'er, and also understood that being a mother was not easy for her, so he kept comforting her emotions along the way.
"Brother Jingheng, I'm not as fragile as you think, and it's not like I can't be seen anymore."
Chu Yunning found that Emperor Mingwen was more nervous than himself.
The two of them almost always traveled during the day and found a rest station at night. They took shortcuts and dressed less conspicuously. In order to avoid being noticed, the two of them did not show any wealth at all when they appeared, and their faces were specially disguised.
After a while and a little black soil, he looked like an ordinary person.
So the journey went smoothly, and horses were changed every time we arrived at a station, so that we could continue on our way.
When they arrived in Qianzhou, the sky was beautiful and it started pouring rain. The two of them were wet almost all the way into the inn, their clothes were soaked through, and the early spring rain was cool.
Emperor Mingwen immediately asked the waiter to prepare the room and provide clean hot water.
"I'm really sorry. There's only one vacant room left now. Do you think?" The waiter said with a smile: "It's been raining heavily for three days, and more and more people are stranded. It's still hard to find this room.
of."
Listening to the waiter's words, Chu Yunning's mouth twitched. If she hadn't understood Emperor Mingwen's character, she would have thought she had read too many romance novels by Mr. Ba. It was raining heavily, and there was only one room left.
"Xiao Er..."
"Just give it to us." When Chu Yunning saw the person coming behind him, he asked the waiter for the room without hesitation.
The waiter nodded immediately, bowed his waist and pointed to the direction of the two of them.
Behind him was a young and beautiful young lady, wearing a brocade dress, holding a sword in her hand, and carrying a luggage on her shoulder. She stood in front of the counter and asked for a room. She frowned when she learned that the last room was booked. Followed directly.
"Brothers, can you give me this room? I can pay ten times the price."
The woman walked around, and as soon as she raised her eyes, she was immediately attracted by Emperor Mingwen's face, her eyes showing joy; "This brother must not be from Qianzhou, I haven't seen him before.
My face is very raw.”
Emperor Mingwen glanced at the woman lightly and didn't want to talk to her, but there were several people downstairs watching the fun.
"Brother, where are you from? Although you are dressed simply, you have an extraordinary temperament. This is your brother, right? The two of you just came to Qianzhou, so you are not afraid of being stared at?" Lu Qianqian took a photo. He patted his chest; "But don't be afraid, I can protect you."
After saying this, the waiter couldn't help but laugh.
Lu Qianqian glared at the waiter angrily, and the waiter stupefied and suppressed his laughter.
Emperor Mingwen walked down the steps and turned to block Chu Yunning. He said with a serious face, "Miss, my wife and unborn child are still waiting for me to rush back. We can't give up this room."
"Are you married?" Lu Qianqian frowned.
Emperor Mingwen's face was not red and his heart was not beating: "The eldest son is already in school."
Chu Yunning behind him looked at Lu Qianqian's troubled face, and then looked at the handsome man Ming Wendi who had been washed away by the rain. No wonder Lu Qianqian was tempted.
It's hard for a young girl who is just starting to fall in love and suddenly meets an amazing man not to be tempted, right?
"Miss Lu, why don't you go back to the Lu family? The Lu family has a great business, why do you need to live in a small shop?" the waiter advised.
Lu Qianqian pursed her lips in displeasure and waved the waiter away, looking arrogant, "I think these two brothers are gentlemen, so I will stay in this room today."
After saying that, he rushed in without caring about the people behind him. Emperor Mingwen frowned. He had never seen such an unreasonable girl.
Lu Qianqian blinked at the two of them and asked innocently: "Can I travel with you?"
Before Emperor Mingwen spoke, Chu Yunning smiled and nodded: "Miss Lu is willing to give up her identity, so of course we are willing. You go up first, we will arrive later."
After getting the answer he wanted, Lu Qianqian grinned: "Yes!"
After Lu Qianqian went upstairs, Chu Yunning turned her head and looked at the sky. It was still raining heavily outside, so she borrowed pen and ink to write a letter and gave the waiter five taels of silver.
Let him go to the Lu family.
Emperor Mingwen and Chu Yunning were sitting in the lobby eating hot meals. During this period, Emperor Mingwen also took clean clothes from the store: "Change into clothes first to avoid catching a cold."
"Um."
After changing her clothes, she ate and waited for the news. After a while, Lu Qianqian walked down and happened to bump into the Lu family.
"Dad?" Lu Qianqian's expression changed. How could her father find this place so quickly?
Boss Lu had a sullen face. How could he raise such a disobedient daughter? She only thinks about robbing the rich, giving to the poor, and doing chivalry all day long. She is not at all like the delicate daughter of a daughter.
"It's a mixed bag here, come back with me quickly."
Lu Qianqian pouted unhappily: "No, dad, I have found my sweetheart.
Yes, it’s this young master!”
Chu Yunning watched helplessly as Lu Qianqian pointed at Emperor Mingwen, a sip of hot tea almost stuck in her throat. Emperor Mingwen, who was unfazed by honor and disgrace opposite him, raised his eyes and handed her a clean handkerchief;
"What's the rush?"
After Chu Yun Ning calmed down, he coughed lightly, stood up and said to Boss Lu: "My brother already has a wife, and he will never divorce or reconcile with her. Today is just a one-time relationship. Thank you, Boss Lu.
Miss, I love you so much."
"I don't mind, I can be an equal wife." Lu Qianqian had never seen such a good-looking man in her whole life, and she was attracted unconsciously.
The two of them tried to keep a low profile along the way, but they didn't want to meet such a shameless person.
My daughter’s tutor was almost eaten by a dog!
Boss Lu looked towards Emperor Mingwen and was unconsciously attracted by his aura. Although the other man was dressed simply, the nobility exuding from his whole body seemed to be engraved in his bones, making people surrender unconsciously.
"This young master..."
"My brother has a bad temper and is not easy to approach. He is not as good as you think."
Chu Yunning rolled her eyes speechlessly, and finally understood what it means like like father, like daughter. Seeing the look in Boss Lu's eyes, she wished she could stick to Emperor Mingwen, whose eyes were brighter than the stars.
"How can you say that about your brother?" Lu Qianqian pouted and wanted to pack up the injustice.
"Bang!"
Emperor Mingwen slammed the table suddenly and glared at Lu Qianqian. His eyes were as sharp as a knife, which made her tremble all over. She kept taking two steps back and looked at him blankly, with big drops of tears in her eyes.
With.
"Oh, what's wrong with my dear daughter?" Boss Lu felt very distressed. He turned his head and glared at Emperor Mingwen: "It's your blessing that Qianqian likes you..."
Chu Yunning couldn't hold it in any longer. They really didn't want to cause trouble and attract attention.
"In this case, you give us one day to think about it." Chu Yunning lowered his voice.
At this time, Lu Qianqian didn't know what he said to Boss Lu. Boss Lu waved his hand domineeringly and asked people to guard the inn: "I will personally come to invite you two to the Lu family early tomorrow morning."
"Sure!" Chu Yunning nodded.
The two of them went upstairs together. Looking at Lu Qianqian's clothes lying on the floor, Chu Yunning let out a long sigh.
This time the two of them came out without anyone, not even the secret guards.
"What should we do now?" Chu Yunning asked.
Emperor Mingwen looked through the window at the stables downstairs. There was a carriage. He blew out the candles in the room and opened the window. He put his hands around Chu Yunning's slender waist, covered her head with clothes, and jumped up.
When he got to the carriage, he stuffed her into the carriage.
Chu Yunning only felt that the world was spinning for a while, and the rain came down without much exposure. Emperor Mingwen held the reins in his hand, shouted loudly in the rainy night, and galloped away with the carriage.
"The next stop is estimated to take two hours. Please take a good rest." Emperor Mingwen said through the curtain.
