Zhan Zhao looked at me and did not say a word. He only passed the imperial edict to me and I opened it up.
I smiled faintly. "Let's go! I'll go with you."
Zhan Zhao shook his head and laughed, "The Emperor did not mention you, so it's fine if you stay."
I smiled sadly. "He is him and I am me. This is his territory after all, so I'll give him some face. However, he definitely can't interfere with my freedom. This is also my bottom line."
Zhan Zhao was helpless, and said: "Accompany me for a drink, when Master returns, I will leave."
I nodded and went back to my room to wait for him. A moment later, he brought out two small jars of Girl Red and said, "This was even given to me by Bai Yutang, I just couldn't bear to drink it."
So I drank the wine like it was his blood. As he drank it hurriedly, Zhan Zhao did not stop him, but only smiled at me while looking as warm as water. Gradually, I discovered that his face was getting more and more blurry. I sighed in my heart. Medicine, don't forget, I still have Treading on Snow, I will catch up to you eventually. "
Seeing me fall, Zhan Zhao picked me up and carried me onto the bed. He sighed and said, "I'm afraid that I won't be able to defend the Qing Province, I can't let you take the risk. Forgive me, but if you have the life to return, then I'll apologize to you."
He left, unable to hold his hand, just like that.
"Huala …" I shouted and jumped up. I saw Nuo Nuo standing in front of me with a copper bowl in her hand. My entire body was drenched in cold water and I sneezed twice.
Nuo Nuo said indifferently: "Quickly chase, he has already been gone for five days."
Five days? I gritted my teeth as I walked out, but Nuo Nuo smiled and said, "Is this how you wear it?"
I lowered my head. I was only wearing my clothes, and they were soaked. I quickly took off my clothes and put them on, covering my body with the black robe. Seeing the golden mask, I hesitated for a moment before I took it into my arms.
Arriving at the Flower Hall, he saw Bao Zheng and Gongsun Ce discussing a few things. Seeing that I was dressed in black, Bao Zheng smiled and said, "Go, I will tell the Emperor about it."
I nodded my head, and took out the silver notes that I had swindled from Li Jin and gave it to Gongsun Ce: "I need some steamed buns and scones, whatever food I can prepare before nightfall, I will take it with me. "Also, buy a hundred bags of rice."
Gongsun Ce did not ask why, holding the silver notes and walking out. I cleaned my pockets and ran the canteen straight down the well, filling it with water. He also brought a lot of medicinal herbs and medicine to treat injuries, hoping to be able to help him. This pocket is modified to hold more things.
Gongsun Ce was efficient when it came to doing things, he had already finished preparing before the sun set. When they saw me stuffing something that looked like a small mountain into my pocket, they were so shocked that their jaws almost dropped to the ground. I didn't have time to explain, after packing everything I took out the mini stable, but Treading Snow wasn't there, it must have been Zhan Zhao who took it away. Arriving at the horse stables, he saw that Treadcloud was leisurely munching on the fodder.
I angrily said, "What a great 'Treading on the Snow'! You actually let that smelly cat ride you!"
Heng Ai unwillingly surrounded me and I said smilingly: "Son, protect Package Master well and protect Kaifeng Mansion well. Otherwise, I'll come back and beat you sh * t. "Ye-zi."
Heng Ai dejectedly flew back to his side. I bid farewell to everyone on my horse. Bao Zheng's lips trembled but he did not say anything for a long while.
I replied smilingly, "Don't worry, he won't die because there are even more difficult tasks awaiting him."
Bao Zheng laughed, and said with a father-like tone: "Not only Zhan Zhao, but you, Long Fei, must also return safely. He used me, not the house, which made me feel even more affectionate.
I nodded and galloped off. Hopefully he will make it in time. Hopefully he can hold on until I get there.
Outside of Qingzhou, the only thing I could see were soldiers, countless soldiers and mountain generals. The small Qingzhou was like a small boat floating on the vast ocean, powerless and ready to sink to the bottom at any time.
Looking at this, I smiled. Her lips curled up slightly. It was a peaceful smile. Her tightly knitted eyebrows slowly relaxed. The hanging heart was finally relieved. Luckily, it was not too late. As long as the Qing Province was not captured, there was hope for me.
I wanted to rush in now, but I couldn't. I had to wait until the night before I could summon Treading In Snow to take me in.
It wasn't easy for me to wait until midnight before I whistled. After a while, I let out a hiss and stepped on the snow as it fell from the sky. It intimately rubbed against my chest.
I said smilingly, "Take me to find him."
Treading on the snow nodded, and we flew into the city in the night. Unexpectedly, Zhan Zhao did not sleep, and stood in the courtyard looking at the sky. It was funny when he saw me staring at him with wide cat eyes.
I jumped off the horse and looked at him. He was wearing a red armor, which reached to his knees, a black armor, and a pair of black battle boots. He did not have a helmet on his head, and his black hair was tied tightly around his head. Although he was not as handsome as his usual red official uniform and black gauze cap, he looked even more manly.
I smiled. "Why?" You don't recognize me anymore? "
Zhan Zhao released a relieved smile and said: "They really did catch up. Right now, you need to ride snow on your back and quickly return to the Kaifeng Mansion. "He's in danger!"
I shook my head, brushed the dust off my clothes, and put on my mask.
I sternly replied, "My name is Dragon King and I'm here to assist. Please do not decline my request, Lord Messenger. I am responsible for the country's rise and fall."
"But you …" Zhan Zhao knew that he had lost all his powers.
I sternly replied, "Lord Messenger, please do not refuse. Otherwise, I will use another method."
Zhan Zhao was helpless, he rubbed between his brows and said: "Forget it, you can still be at ease by being by my side."
I knew he had compromised, so I leaned against him and fell asleep. I had hardly rested all the way, and I was too tired. After a while, I was woken by the noise and went out, putting on my mask.
Huyan Ke, who had been bitterly guarding the border for twenty years, had died. After being poisoned by the enemy's poison arrows, a generation of heroes were just carelessly buried in a patch of barren land at the east of the city.
Zhan Zhao quietly stood in front of the grave, not saying a word, only holding onto the sword hilt tightly, his joints were white, it was as if he was carved with swords. His lips were tightly pursed.
Back in the city, at the south gate, it was already a mess. A few officers were shouting that they would surrender and survive.
Zhan Zhao's face became paler and paler, but he quietly stood in front of the soldiers, releasing a terrifying Qi, in the silence there were layers of killing intent. The hundreds of soldiers gradually quieted down, lowering their heads one by one.
"My lord, because of the death of General Huyan, the hearts of the people in the military were in turmoil. Some of the military officers were arguing about offering their lives for the city." A person with an appearance of a general reported.
