Qinghan...

Light cold!

I was still chanting this name in my heart. I didn't feel what was happening around me at all. I didn't even feel that the fighting men fell at my feet, and the blood spurted out all over me. I just followed them absentmindedly.

Walking towards the mouth of the valley.

The brocade bag, Fu Badai, Qinghan... it seems like my whole body has been emptied out.

I don’t know how long it took, but Sun Jingfei finally opened a bloody path in front. The garrison at Taniguchi had already noticed what was going on inside. When they saw him, they immediately rushed towards us: "Master Sun!"

"Protect the Emperor!"

When they heard Sun Jingfei's words, they were shocked to find that the emperor and empress were among the crowd. They hurriedly knelt down to salute, but Pei Yuanhao had already said in a deep voice: "No need to be polite, hurry up and leave!"

Although we have arrived at the entrance of the valley, after all, there are still people outside the valley, Shen Gongye. Although it is not as life-and-death as before, the outcome is still uncertain, and there is really no time to pay attention to those complicated etiquette. Imperial Guards

When the people heard this, they stood up hurriedly and came over to protect us: "Your Majesty, I will wait for you to escort the Emperor out of the valley!"

With them by your side, everything goes much smoother.

At this time, in the valley behind him, the tung oil had been almost burned. The flames rushed to the top of the mountain, turning everything along the way into ashes. It had also reached the end, and only the billowing smoke was still billowing, filling the entire place.

over the valley

, almost covering the sky and the earth. The wind carried the stench of burning corpses. Some officials around saw the mountains of corpses that had just been burned to black, and they looked so miserable that some couldn't help but vomited.

Get up.

"Let's go!"

Sun Jingfei gave the order and escorted a group of us outside.

The Imperial Guards at the entrance of the valley were already well equipped at this time, with their swords unsheathed and looking around vigilantly. The barracks had been pulled up long before the fire ignited. There was no longer any obstacle to the open entrance of the valley. Sun Jingfei

He chopped down one of the imperial soldiers who was chasing him with his sword, and then led these people outside.

As soon as I left the valley, I found that the thick smoke in the valley had also overflowed, filling the surrounding large areas of land, making it almost impossible to see further away.

I could only hear people screaming and wailing in the valley, and they kept running down to hide.

Sun Jingfei looked up and said, "Those are Chen Fu's people."

Pei Yuanhao also looked up, but said nothing. He just looked into the distance. The front was already filled with thick smoke and he couldn't see anything clearly, but he didn't know what he was looking at.

Sun Jingfei said: "We have to take advantage of the chaos to leave here. If their troops gather together, it will be difficult."

He said this with some hesitation, but the actual situation is very clear to everyone. The fire just disrupted Shen Gongye and Chen Fu's plans, but in terms of military strength, the Imperial Guard is still

Being in a weak position, we must break through the barrier in front now and rush back to the capital immediately in order to stabilize the situation.

Pei Yuanhao nodded, and someone immediately brought a few horses next to him.

"Your Majesty, please mount your horse."

Pei Yuanhao was still holding the body of the Queen Mother in his arms. Although it had been a mess just now, he did not let go at all; but the situation was urgent at this time, so he gritted his teeth and handed the body of the Queen Mother to a few soldiers of the Imperial Guard.

He said in a deep voice: "We must protect the Queen Mother!"

"The last general's decree!"

"When I return to Beijing, I will be buried with great splendor! You will also be greatly rewarded."

"Yes!"

Those people carefully took the Queen Mother's body. Pei Yuanhao took another look, then turned around and got on the horse.

Chang Qing was also helped onto the horse. As soon as she sat firmly, she immediately reached out and took Xiao Nianshen, hugging him tightly in her arms, with one hand around him and the other holding the reins.

The child said softly on top of his head: "Don't be afraid, the queen will take you back."

"..." Nianshen seemed to have a little vitality at this time, huddled in Chang Qing's arms, and nodded tremblingly.

When I saw this scene, and then recalled the way the Queen Mother was lying in my arms, vomiting blood and twitching just now, I felt my eyes were hot, and I lowered my head subconsciously, and then I heard the sound of horse hooves in front of me slowly coming this way.

.

When I looked up, I saw Pei Yuanhao's horse.

He shook the reins and rode the horse slowly over. The surrounding ministers and soldiers were stunned. Before they could react, Sun Jingfei had already stepped forward and said: "Your Majesty, we——"

Before he finished speaking, he saw Pei Yuanhao leaning down on the horse and stretching out his hand.

The hand was still injured, stained with blood, and had the smell of fireworks, but without a trace of hesitation or trembling, it reached out to someone firmly.

Nangong Lizhu.

She seemed to be stunned for a moment, and raised her head in confusion.

There were still some wounds on her face, stained with some blood, and traces of fireworks and ashes, but they could not conceal her overwhelming splendor, but her eyes, which had always been somewhat gloomy, suddenly flickered at this moment, as if there was water.

Light flows through.

Pei Yuanhao said in a deep voice: "Come up."

"..."

Nangong Lizhu seemed to be gritting her teeth hard, and faint signs of twitching could be seen on her face. She even clenched her fists tightly, and the immunity gold medal was almost deeply burned into her palm; although she was far away from her,

It wasn't close, but I could clearly see the unyielding resentment on her face, as well as the anger and unwillingness in her eyes.

But the people around me were also aware of the situation and didn’t open their mouths.

People's eyes are sharp, and they can naturally see clearly. Since Pei Yuanhao's coma was a scene from the beginning, then of course he was also conscious just now when Nangong Lizhu was caught by Shen Gongye and almost executed.

. However, Shen Gongyi had not revealed his true face at that time, so Pei Yuanhao had been waiting.

Even if she died in an instant, he did not appear.

I raised my head and looked at Chang Qing, who was not far in front of me. She naturally saw this scene, and her eyebrows were slightly furrowed. Although I could see a hint of worry flashing through her eyes, it only flashed past, and she lowered her head.

Go and carefully comfort Nianshen in your arms.

Nangong Lizhu still didn't move or speak. Pei Yuanhao still stretched out his hand to her: "Concubine Li, come up!"

The voice became darker again.

Nangong Lizhu bit her lower lip, as if she glanced at me and finally made up her mind, she reached out her hand.

Pei Yuanhao pulled her onto the horse's back with all his strength and held her tightly in his arms.

Around me, some people seemed to be relieved, but I could also feel some worried and heavy eyes. I didn't say anything. I only saw a huge black figure walking in front of me. When I looked closely, it was Sun Jingfei holding a man.

The horse came over and handed the reins to me: "Master Yue."

I was stunned for a moment. There were not many horses at present, especially the few commanders left to the Imperial Guard to break out of the encirclement. I immediately took the reins and looked at him gratefully: "Thank you, Lord Sun!"

"..." He lightly raised the corners of his lips and made a smile, but there was no smile in his eyes. At this time, it is indeed not the time for us to smile. People on both sides of the river valley are here.

Running down quickly, seeing the smoke in front of him was so thick that it blocked the sky and the sun, which made people feel an extra stone weighing on their hearts. He lowered his voice and said: "If there is no obstacle, everything will be fine; if it is true -"

At this point, he hesitated for a moment, looked at me and said, "Master, please take care of yourself."

I nodded hurriedly and he turned around and left.

After a while, those who could mount had already mounted their horses. All the people in the imperial guard were ready to go. Their swords were unsheathed and the cold light was ready to be fired. Sun Jing pulled out the sword from his waist with a loud sound, drew a cold light in the air, and said loudly

: "Up!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the horse under him neighed and rushed out like an arrow from the string. Immediately, the people behind him all galloped their horses and whipped their whips, and a group of people rushed forward quickly.

Someone once told me that grassland is the place closest to people's hearts.

Maybe it's because it's so vast and close to the sky, so all the sensations seem to be so close to people's hearts. When we rushed out of the valley mouth, the sky seemed to be able to sense this moment, and suddenly the wind and clouds rose suddenly.

Black clouds gathered from behind and soon merged with the billowing smoke.

The sky is the curtain, and the curtain opens to show all living beings!

The huge haze was rolling over our heads. As our cavalry galloped all the way south, the dark clouds were also rolling in.

Even so, we could not stop our footsteps. We could only hear the sound of horseshoes, shaking the ground, and the Imperial Guards behind us rushed after us and plunged into the thick smoke in front.
p>

For a moment, everything in front of me was dim.

I hadn't felt anything before, but now I felt a burning sensation in the back of my throat, and I couldn't help but cough. The people around me gradually became a little blurry, and I could only hear the people next to me racing and shouting.

The whip and the horse's hooves hit the ground, making an almost deafening sound.

My equestrian skills were not good, so I could barely sit still on the horse. When it jolted, my whole body was in disarray. I wrapped the reins tightly around my hands, and the thorns on the ropes pierced into my skin.

It brought a small burst of pain, I put it to my mouth and sucked it, and after a while, I followed them across the river valley.

There was still clouds and smoke ahead. I covered my mouth with one hand to suppress the tightness in my chest, and kept galloping forward. From time to time, I saw figures appearing next to me. They were the ones who had been implicated in the fire in the valley and fled to

On this side, you can faintly hear Chen Fu and others shouting sternly in the distance: "Stop them!"

"Gather up a team and stop them!"

"Don't let them get away!"

After all, those people were well-trained, and soon some people gathered and caught up with us. Sun Jingfei waved the scimitar in his hand, and heard the guards behind him immediately turned around and started fighting with those people.
To be continued...
