Chapter 607 Meeting in Yuezhou
After several days of non-stop driving, we were getting closer and closer to Yuezhou. However, the further we went towards Yuezhou, the more chaotic the situation became. There were groups of people fleeing along the way, some fleeing towards Jinye, and others. Going to Chen State...
The towns and villages we passed along the way were all with abandoned fields and empty houses. They were even more dilapidated than what we saw when we went to Pingzhou two years ago.
Liang Huan watched silently, sighing in her heart.
Feng Ting reined in his horse and said, "Madam, if we go further we will reach Pingwu."
They had been on the road since before dawn, and it was already noon. Feng Ting saw that Liang Huan's face was full of exhaustion, so he suggested taking a rest before leaving.
The horse was tired and the man was tired, so Liang Huan responded.
Pingwu is very close to Yuezhou. Since King Pengcheng rebelled, Pingwu has been occupied by Qi rebels.
The area they are currently in can be described as a place where they don't care about anything.
How can it not wither and become barren?
They got off their horses and said they wanted to rest, but they just rested under the acacia tree on the roadside.
Liang Huan looked into the distance.
There were only four people in this group. In addition to her and Feng Ting, there were also two secret guards trained by Chun Yubei for her.
She received a letter from Chun Yubei just the day before yesterday, telling her that everything was fine with Gao Yang.
In this turbulent and chaotic period, it is not easy to live peacefully.
Liang Huan sighed secretly.
Feng Ting led the horse to find water.
After Liang Huan sat for a while, he saw a lot of light brown honey locusts falling on the ground. He thought that these things were useful, so he picked them up.
Two secret guards saw it and helped her pick it up together. After a while, they picked up a large bag.
Feng Ting came back from fetching water, took the water bag and handed it to Liang Huan. He caught a glimpse of the big bag of honey locust and said, "Madam, take a rest for a while, and I will come down to pick it up."
Feng Ting called her that from the beginning of their meeting.
Liang Huan took the water bag with mixed emotions: "No, I think it's a pity that no one wants them if they fall here. It's better to take them to the camp. We still have to hurry."
She asked the secret guards to tie the big bundle to the horse, and gave them water bags.
Although Feng Ting looked hesitant, he did not insist.
On the way, Liang Huan simply asked Feng Ting a few questions about Qiu Xi and the others, and felt relieved knowing that they were all staying in Yunchuan safely.
She was thinking about Yu Wenjue's injury and Chen Dechun's safety, so she didn't talk much along the way and just wanted to go as fast as possible.
Liang Huan was worried, and Feng Ting was worried even more.
Feng Ting glanced in the direction of Yuezhou. The closer he got to Yuezhou, the more he became worried.
Liang Huan knew what he was worried about. According to Feng Ting, they came to him this time without telling Yu Wenjue...
Liang Huan drank some water, looked at him and said, "Don't worry."
A trace of uneasiness and shame flashed across Feng Ting's face: "Madam..."
Liang Huruo sighed: "He is not a person who can't tell right from wrong. You were right to come to me in time. If you keep hiding it from me until something really happens, you shouldn't do it."
After speaking, she stopped talking and just drank water.
Feng Ting did not feel relieved because of Liang Huan's words, but instead felt more and more heavy.
Yu Wenjue's rule was extremely strict, and Liang Han knew it.
They were risking their lives by hiding this from Yu Wenjue.
In the past, Liang Huan was not sure whether they could save their lives, but now——
She put away the water bag and sighed: "Don't worry."
Unexpectedly, as soon as he finished speaking, Feng Tingtong made a sound and knelt down.
"Madam..."
His lips moved slightly, as if he was hesitating to speak.
Liang Huan was stunned for a moment, frowned and hurriedly helped the person: "What are you doing? It's not that serious. Get up quickly... I just said I wanted to find him."
Feng Ting stood up and lowered his head.
Liang Huan sighed silently and stopped trying to persuade him.
They didn't stay too long before they were on the road again.
In the evening, they bypassed Pingwu City and headed for Yuezhou.
Liang Huan kept driving his horse all the time, hoping that Chen Dechun, who fell into the hands of the Qi rebels, would not be poisoned. That night, they only rested in the wild for an hour.
After hurriedly and slowly, we finally reached the junction of Pingwu and Yuezhou at dawn.
Yuezhou is close to Youyan Mountain and the terrain is relatively complicated. In order to return to the city as quickly as possible, they gave up the flat but far official road and took a rugged shortcut instead.
Suddenly, the dense forest ahead shook, and there was a chaotic sound of horse hooves, mixed with noisy shouts, which made the birds in the forest flutter around.
Judging from the movement, there should be a lot of people.
For a moment it was difficult to distinguish between friend and foe, and the expressions of several people immediately changed.
Feng Ting lowered his voice: "Madam."
Liang Huan understood, and several people immediately hid nearby.
Fortunately, the group of people did not go towards them, but turned to the other side, obviously going to Pingwu.
Liang Huan slightly stuck her head out and looked out. At this glance, she froze and couldn't move any more. She stared blankly at the man riding the tall horse.
Wang Sudu is dead, why is he... still alive?
Liang Huan's hands and feet were cold, and he remained frozen in place until the group of people left.
"Madam?"
Seeing that the man's face was pale, as if he had lost his soul, Feng Ting called out softly.
Liang Huan came back to his senses, slowly lowered his head, and then stood up after a slight pause.
Feng Ting glanced at the group of people who were almost out of sight and said: "My subordinates look at them as if they are here to hunt."
Liang Huan didn't look over there, just nodded: "Let's go."
No matter what, you have to go to Pingwu City once!
Liang Huan got on his horse and said nothing.
Until the sun set in the west, we finally arrived at Yuezhou City.
Xu Shi had received the news a long time ago. As soon as he passed the city gate, someone was waiting for him.
He was a stranger, and Liang Huan didn't recognize him.
When he saw Feng Ting, he immediately came up to Liang Huan and bowed down. Without saying a word, he just led them all the way to the west.
It's not the governor's mansion, but a heavily guarded mansion. It's only two streets away, and there are soldiers guarding it and checking it at every level.
Liang Han lowered her eyes. The closer she got to the mansion, the faster her heart beat.
They stopped at the gate with the stone lions. Just looking at it, it occupied a large area. Although it was not gorgeous, it was very quiet and elegant.
As expected, seeing the few of them in coarse linen clothes and gray faces, the general in charge of the guard looked over suspiciously, looking up and down with a scrutinizing gaze.
Liang Huan met his gaze without hesitation. To save trouble, he did not put on any disguise on his face and only pretended to be a man. At first glance, he seemed to be acting suspiciously.
The general frowned and walked towards her.
"Are you a healer?"
Obviously don't believe it.
Before Liang Huan could speak, she saw the general's steps pause, and he suddenly raised his fist behind her and saluted.
"Your Majesty."
Liang Huan was a little confused. He was frozen and didn't dare to move. He watched the guards kneeling down in unison.
"...婠婠?"
The voice that suddenly sounded was hoarse and trembling with excitement.
With such a gentle sound, Liang Huan's heart felt sour, and his eyes immediately became misty.
She took a slow breath and turned her head to look over.
A few steps away, the person with red eyes stared at her in disbelief. He wanted to step forward, but did not dare to.
Liang Huan had a lump in his throat and couldn't ask anything he wanted to ask.
Feng Ting stepped forward and knelt down in front of her.
Just as he was about to admit his mistake, someone interrupted him.
"If you want to blame, blame me. It was me who gave them the idea. It has nothing to do with the Lord. He didn't know anything about it!"
Finally met~
