Chapter 635
"The people of Dengzhou..." Xiao Huayong murmured in a low voice, and then smiled inexplicably.

Xiao Huayong really wanted to use the disaster in Dengzhou as a cover, so that people would die in the natural disaster and erase the traces cheaply, but he never thought of implicating the people of Dengzhou, everything was just taking advantage of the trend .

He didn't believe this point because Shen Xihe knew him well, but she still used the peace of the people in Dengzhou as an excuse, and she couldn't say a word. It's just that she was worried about him. Maybe it was a cover-up, or maybe it was something she had in her heart. No excuse for not realizing it.

In any case, his actions startled her, Xiao Huayong still planned to stop and postpone his actions.

Xiao Huayong agreed to stop, and Shen Xihe breathed a sigh of relief. For a moment, he thought of the inexplicable fragility he had never had before, and felt a little uncomfortable. For a moment, the husband and wife had different thoughts, all because of the heavy subject and silent.

The carriage was still moving forward steadily, and not long after entering the boundary of Dengzhou, the light rain swayed all over the sky, the thick clouds were tightly intertwined, and no light could penetrate, the muddy underground became more and more serious, and it was very difficult to travel.

"The carriage ahead is difficult to pass, can His Royal Highness ride a horse?" They stopped at the post station, and Xiao Changqing went to explore the way with his guards.

All the way is the official road, but the official road also winds in the mountains, because I know that Xiao Huayong is going to Dengzhou, this is also the people of Dengzhou who have suffered so much after the appearance of the strange stone. In anticipation of the hope, the government took the risk of rushing to repair the road, and many people even joined in on their own initiative, and a road leading directly to Wendeng County has been cleared in front of them.

But it has been raining continuously for several days, no one knows whether the cleared road is safe or not, Xiao Changqing, as the escort, naturally put Xiao Huayong's safety as the first priority.

"How far is it from here to the next station?" Xiao Huayong didn't speak, Shen Xihe asked first.

Xiao Changqing had already found out everything: "The next post station is a hundred miles away, but you can go around the mountain road and go to the village to rest, but the mountain road is slippery, so you need to be careful."

"My fifth brother, please prepare the horses." Xiao Huayong said softly.

Xiao Changqing simply responded and went to prepare.

"What do you mean by Xin Wang?" After Xiao Changqing left, Shen Xihe raised his eyes to look at Xiao Huayong.

Because she came with Xiao Huayong, Shen Xihe didn't bother to do anything, such as spying and inquiring information along the way, she believed that Xiao Huayong would not make any omissions, so there was no need to waste the people in her hands, and Not sure about Xiao Huayong's overall plan, and also worried that she would send someone rashly, showing traces would disrupt Xiao Huayong's deployment, so she was completely ignorant of everything around her.

Just now Xiao Changqing realized that there was something in his words. Although they had already entered Dengzhou, these places were indeed drizzled and the roads were soft and muddy, but in Xiao Changqing's heart, Xiao Huayong was pretending to be sick, and he would not really treat Xiao Huayong as a patient.His attitude just now shows what he knows, and he reminded Xiao Huayong tactfully.

"The meeting gift that Lao Ba gave us." Xiao Huayong's lips curved slightly, "It's just a small fight, don't take it to heart."

Xiao Huayong really knew, seeing that he was so confident, Shen Xihe didn't ask any more questions.

After Xiao Zhangqing got everything ready, Xiao Huayong and Shen Xihe both put on coir raincoats and bamboo hats, Xiao Huayong got on the horse, coughed a series of coughs, turned his head to look at Shen Xihe who was about to get on his own horse: "I feel tired suddenly, I'm afraid I won't be able to drive the horse for a long time, can you give me a ride?"

Shen Xihe:  …

Not only Shen Xi and Wuyu, but even Tianyuan and the others were startled by His Highness the Crown Prince's lies.

Xiao Changqing kept his eyes on his nose and his heart, his face expressionless.

Shen Xihe thought about the "meeting gift" waiting for a while, so he didn't say much, and resolutely gave up his horse, and walked to Xiao Huayong's side.

Xiao Huayong held the rein in one hand, and slowly stretched out the other hand.

Shen Xihe looked at the palm that was temporarily covered by the rain in just a moment, put one hand on it, the palm was cold, turned on the horse with his strength, sat in front of Xiao Huayong, surrounded by his thin and slender body in his arms inside.

He snatched the rein from his hand: "Hold on to me."

As soon as the long arms were locked, they circled her waist and hugged her tightly.

Shen Xihe looked down at the long and slender fingers intertwined on his waist, pursed his lips, waved his whip, and rushed out. Tianyuan Pearl and others hurriedly followed, Xiao Changqing also galloped with his guards, and passed the two People, walk ahead.

The drizzle fell on the branches and leaves, and the rustling sound among Dada's hoofbeats was like the hoarse sound of a snake in the dark night that disturbs one's dreams, and there was an uncomfortable chill.

Going forward in the face of wind and rain, occasionally galloping over the branches that stretched to both sides of the road, the wind slapped their faces cold and met the water, and many people soon fell into a mess. Shen Xihe controlled the horse very well, and the speed Not slow, but can often avoid these.

"Yoyo's riding skills are getting better and better." Xiao Huayong couldn't help but admire.

"Where did they set up an ambush?" Shen Xihe was concerned about this.

Xiao Huayong raised his eyes and looked at the relatively narrow bend in front of him. On one side of the bend was a high mountain and on the other side was a cliff. A glimmer of light flashed in his eyes: "One mile ahead."

Shen Xihe tightened his grip on the reins, just at this moment there was the sound of eagles circling, and when he raised his eyes, he saw three or five eagles spreading their wings. , she couldn't help shouting loudly to the guards ahead who were about to pass the curve: "The road ahead is narrow, be careful..."

Before Shen Xihe finished speaking, her pupils shrank. She caught a glimpse of a rock rolling down the slope of the curve, and immediately pulled the rein tightly. Suddenly, Shen Xihe and Xiao Huayong on horseback were almost overturned, and it took a while to stabilize the horse.

At this time, the rocks rolled down one by one, and with the rolling of the rocks, there was a lot of soil that slid down, and even washed away some trees, which looked like ordinary landslides.

Immediately afterwards, a large area of ​​the mountain slid down, as if a giant ax had invisibly cut off a corner of the hillside. Suddenly, this side of the hillside was peeled off from the mountain body and fell mercilessly. Shen Xihe was about to retreat.

Who knew that Xiao Huayong who was behind him took her hand that tightened the rein first, stretched out his hand to pat the horse, and rushed forward.

Under his control, the horse seems to have a tacit understanding with him. It jumps when it should jump, turns sharply when it should turn sharply, and is like a gust of wind when it should rush.

The falling mud and rocks were all avoided by him precisely, and occasionally mud and rocks splashed, and he raised his hand and used the cloak to block Shen Xihe.

Shen Xihe looked sideways at his cold pupils, which were as sharp as blades. By the time she regained consciousness, they had crossed the bend and avoided a thrilling "natural disaster".
