The guard lowered his head with some guilty conscience, and said back: "The subordinates did not dare to disobey your majesty's will, and they brought back the Concubine De concubine yesterday afternoon, your majesty can rest assured."

As he spoke, he briefly talked about the encounter with Mu Lan in the woods, including the fact that Mu Lan brought back the antidote to detoxify him, but did not mention anything about Mu Lan's poisoning and injury.It is only said that Mulan offered to detoxify Yanfeng, so she set off first and went back to Xichu by chasing Yanfeng's boat overnight in a light boat.And they have successfully crossed the infinite border at this moment, and they will enter the border of Western Chu in one or two hours.

Dong Ling still trusted the loyalty of the guards around him. Before he passed out, he strictly ordered them to bring Mulan back before they could leave, so he didn't doubt the guard's reply at this moment.However, he heard that Mu Lan came back by herself and brought back the antidote, which was far beyond his expectation.

After being shocked, he also vaguely felt a little puzzled, and said: "Concubine De is already weak, how can you let her go? Could it be that you can't send other people?"

The guard lowered his head, and responded slowly: "I dare not have Concubine Lauder, but Concubine De insisted on this, and said that she had tasted the antidote herself, so she could make it earlier than the imperial doctor." The antidote is coming, this is the most beneficial for Yanfeng's injury, so the subordinates did not dare to stop..."[

With Mu Lan's temper, if she insisted on doing this, no one would be able to stop her.Thinking of this, Dong Lingjue felt that the deep warmth that had just grown in his heart was poured over his head by a bucket of cold water.She thought that she was so sympathetic to him in so desperately trying to get the antidote for him regardless of the danger, but unexpectedly, she was still unwilling to face him?

But after thinking about it, this woman was originally a strong-tempered person with superficial expressions, but when the real life and death were at stake, she still cared about him.At this moment, avoiding it is probably because you can't save face, right?We are about to arrive at Xichu now, as long as we hurry up, we will be able to see her within a day.

Seeing that Dong Lingjue remained silent, his brows sometimes furrowed slightly and sometimes widened, the guard's heart was suspended in the air, and he added: "Don't worry, Your Majesty, my subordinates have assigned two alert brothers to accompany Concubine De to protect her." Your Majesty, as soon as you enter the gate, there will be our people to meet you, and your Majesty must already be in the city at this moment."

Dong Lingjue nodded his head, he let go of this matter, and thought about whether the battle at Beiguan would be successful or not, so he stopped thinking about Mulan and ordered: "Submit the battle report of Beiguan immediately. .Also, according to my order, once people from poor countries enter Beiyu City, they will act immediately."

"Yes, this subordinate will do it now." The guard responded, heaving a sigh of relief inwardly. It seems that the emperor still puts state affairs first, so they might be able to use this to delay for some time.I only hope that the antidote left by Empress Defei can save her life, otherwise, he really doesn't know how this matter will end.

The battle at Beiguan was far more intense than expected. The poor country has an absolute advantage in terms of terrain, coupled with elite soldiers and horses. Therefore, even if they were facing a formidable enemy like Western Chu, the two sides could not fight for a while. The battle was evenly matched, and the outcome was hard to tell.

There were very few people in Western Chu who knew about Dongling Jue's sneaking into Youqiong. However, even so, when Tuoba Lingyun released rumors that Dongling had been trapped in Youqiong, even though he still couldn't shake the morale of the soldiers, The few soldiers who led the army inevitably had their own ideas in their hearts.The family relationship behind these people was originally intricate. If Dong Ling was there, they would not dare to have second thoughts, but if Dong Ling was really sneaking into the poor by taking advantage of their illness, these people would inevitably think further.

For a while, when discussing the strategic offensive, the opinions of several parties were at loggerheads, and it seemed that civil strife was about to start, and because of this, they lost the opportunity to fight. Tuoba Lingyun took the opportunity to make a surprise attack, lost thousands of troops, and retreated to a distance of a few kilometers from Beiguan. Ten miles away.

When he heard the news, Dong Lingjue couldn't care less about rushing back to the pass, and as soon as he landed, he led his fast horse to the north pass.

Tuoba Lingyun was victorious in the first battle, so he didn't want to miss the opportunity, so he immediately sent troops to pursue him.When Dong Lingjue arrived, the two armies had already been fighting in the field for a long time, when the soldiers saw him, their hearts were lifted and they became more and more courageous as they fought.

Tuoba Lingyun thought with all his heart that this battle would greatly defeat Xichu's spirit, but he didn't expect that his tens of thousands of elite soldiers returned home with nearly [-]% loss.What shocked him even more was that the general who led the army claimed that it was Dong Lingjue who was in charge in person, which led to a surge in the morale of the opponent and turned defeat into victory.

If Dong Lingjue was alive, it meant that Mu Lan had... Tuoba Lingyun couldn't help but clenched his fists, he couldn't believe that woman would make such a decision.Junyan turned cold, and immediately stood up against the table, saying: "Since he is still alive, then I will go and meet him in person!"

Before the people left, a horse came to report, saying: "Report to the crown prince, Beiyu City... There was an avalanche outside Beiyu City, and we lost contact with the people in the city!"

"What?" Tuoba Lingyun's expression changed, there were many snow peaks around Beiyu City, and the mountains were steep and steep. Although the top of the mountains was snowing heavily all the year round, avalanches were not often heard.How could it happen that the avalanche happened just a few days after they took over, and even cut off their connection with the city.Thinking of Dong Lingjue giving up the city so readily, it must be Xi Chu's conspiracy.

"Dongling Jue!" Tuoba Lingyun gritted out a few words coldly between his teeth, with murderous intent in his eyes, and immediately passed on the order to send five thousand troops to investigate and support Beiyu City, and rectified the remaining Yu Jingrui personally led the troops to the outside of Beiguan City.

However, what surprised him was that when he led his troops to the camp of the Western Chu army, he saw corpses strewn all over the field, and the defeated Western Chu army had left their camp without a trace.

There are dozens of miles to go, which is considered to be the boundary of Western Chu. Tuoba Lingyun had just suffered such a big loss, and Beiyu City was plotted again, how could he stop there, and ordered to continue the pursuit regardless of the advice of the generals around him.

Finally, when chasing to a dangerous valley, he saw Dong Lingjue's figure in the distance.

That was indeed Dongling Jue, the familiar green ink dress fluttered in the mountain wind, and the auspicious dragon pattern embroidered with gold thread was particularly eye-catching and dazzling in the sun.At this moment, he was sitting on the horse back intact, standing quietly in the valley, as if waiting for their arrival. [

Looking around, beside him, and others.However, as the mountain wind blows, the shadows of the trees in the valleys on both sides are whirling, and the branches and leaves are rustling. It seems that there are thousands of troops in ambush, ready to rush out at any time.Looking at Dong Lingjue's leisurely and determined demeanor, it made people believe that the valley in front of him must be full of danger.

He really didn't die!The moment he saw Dongling Jue with his own eyes, Tuoba Lingyun felt a sharp pain in his heart.Being able to recover so quickly, it seems that Mu Lan really gave him the antidote!

Facing the tens of thousands of elite soldiers from poor countries in front of him, Dong Lingjue's face was still calm and calm, and he didn't even move.As expected, Tuoba Lingyun didn't dare to lead people to rush over directly, but stopped far away.Immediately afterwards, Tuoba Lingyun stepped forward single-handedly, shortening the distance between the two to a few feet.

"Prince Tuoba, I have been waiting for you here for a long time." Dong Lingjue greeted him with a smile on his face, as if in front of him was his old friend, not an enemy.
