The Queen of Destiny: The King's Side

The sound of galloping horseshoes was approaching, and everyone's nerves were also tense. Xi Xian and Xuechun hid behind the dense grass, while Yuwen Haoxuan and the others adjusted the attack direction of the city-breaking crossbow to the direction of the sound of horseshoes.

A group of iron cavalry roared into everyone's sight, raising dust all over the sky, and when they came to the open space at the foot of the mountain, they saw a leader who looked around the carriage that had been shot into a hedgehog by arrows, and quickly ordered the troops to move away. Defensive formation.

Then he came to the foot of the mountain single-handedly, and shouted to the empty mountain, "I just saw the fire order soaring to the sky at the end, but the people on the mountain set it off?"

After walking a certain distance down the mountain, Liu Maolin replied, "It is indeed us who set off the fire, but you are the iron cavalry battalion in the Yangcheng garrison?"

The general was silent for a while, as if he had doubts about Liu Maolin's identity, "We are indeed an iron cavalry battalion. May I ask who is on the mountain? Why is there an emergency order?"

Liu Maolin didn't answer, but just threw a golden token in the past. The general who shouted changed his expression greatly after seeing it, and bent down and knelt on the ground, "The last general didn't know the emperor's presence, so please forgive me for the late rescue!"

"Are you the captain of the Iron Cavalry Battalion?" Liu Maolin stepped forward and asked.

Although he knew that there was an emperor among the people on the mountain, the generals kneeling on the ground were respectful and did not panic.

"No, the last general is Captain Xiao Kun from the Iron Cavalry Battalion, and the school captain is Wu Cheng, who named the last general to check on the emergency order. It is dangerous here, please move to Yangcheng as soon as possible."

Liu Maolin turned to look at Yuwen Haoxuan, Yuwen Haoxuan made a gesture to him that only they could understand, Liu Maolin comprehended and turned around and said to Xiao Kun, "I'm sorry for the trouble, Captain Xiao, take the token and invite Old General Wang to kiss you." Come."

Xiao Kun looked at him with a distressed face and said, "General Wang went to inspect the frontier army the day before yesterday, but he is not in Yangcheng now. If he goes to invite him now, he may not come over until dark."

"Then go and come back quickly, the emperor is waiting on the mountain." After Liu Maolin finished speaking, he turned and walked back to the mountain. Xiao Kun didn't dare to delay, and quickly sent people to rush to the place where the frontier army was stationed.

The sky gradually darkened, and Xi Xian, who had been hungry for a whole day, was a little exhausted, but there was no movement in the army at the foot of the mountain. The three of Yuwen Haoxuan took turns controlling the city-breaking crossbow. Shoot without hesitation.

"Are you hungry?" Yuwen Haoxuan came to her side, with concern in his eyes.

Xi Xian shook her head with a pale face, she didn't want to distract Yuwen Haoxuan at such a tense moment, but the rumbling of her stomach revealed her embarrassment.

Yuwen Haoxuan smiled and didn't say anything, just stuffed a few fruits into her hands, and then went to replace Xia Zizhao to control the city-breaking crossbow. Looking at his back, Xixian felt a warmth in her heart, and she couldn't bear to hold the fruits in her hands. eat up.

"Fruits are for eating, not for pinching." At some point when Xia Zizhao came to her side, there was a pile of fruits in the front of his gown.

Xixian smiled awkwardly, and asked Xuechun to take the fruit. Xia Zizhao looked at the few pieces she was still holding in her hand, a flash of complicated emotions flashed by, and he walked to the other side silently.

Just when everyone was thinking about it, there was a commotion down the mountain. Yuwen Haoxuan held the launching mechanism of the city-breaking crossbow, ready to launch an attack at any time. Others also held weapons in their hands and watched the movement down the mountain.

The turmoil at the foot of the mountain quickly calmed down. A group of people walked up the mountain road, and an old and resonant voice sounded from the head of the group, "Your Majesty! The old minister is too late to save you!"

"Old General Wang!" Liu Maolin shouted excitedly, and ran towards the group of people. When he got close, he knelt down with a "plop", "Xiao Linzi kowtowed to you!" After speaking, he kowtowed to the ground a few times a bang.

The old man at the head laughed and helped Liu Maolin up and said, "I haven't seen Xiao Linzi for a few years and he is strong again!"

Yuwen Haoxuan also followed Liu Maolin to meet him, the old man wanted to kneel when he saw him, Yuwen Haoxuan hurried forward to support the old man and said, "General Wang, don't be polite!"

"Why didn't the emperor send someone to notify the old man in advance when he was coming to Yangcheng? The old man should have prepared early. How could today's crisis happen?"

"If you had taken precautions, how could you have attracted them to attack?" Yuwen Haoxuan supported General Wang and led him to the crossbow that broke the city.

The moment he saw the emblem, General Wang glared angrily and slapped off the iron frame supporting the city-breaking crossbow, "Xiao Kun! Aren't these new batches of city-breaking crossbows sealed up in the cavalry battalion? here?"

Xiao Kun ran forward from the crowd, looked carefully at the city-breaking crossbow, and said, "This is indeed a city-breaking crossbow sealed up by the cavalry battalion, but these city-breaking crossbows have always been guarded by the military school lieutenant's cronies. I don't know why it's here."

General Wang suppressed his anger and asked, "Where is Wu Cheng now?"

"The person sent back by the last general said that Captain Wu is not in the camp, and I have sent people to look for it."

"If you want to see a person, if you want to see a dead body, you must bring him back!" 'Crack', another iron frame broke under the palm of General Wang.

"You don't need to get angry, the general." Yuwen Haoxuan waved his hand to push Xiao Kun back, "Wu Cheng is just a small character, and the people behind him are what we really have to deal with. I want to use this opportunity to clean up the secret work of the general!"

"The old minister obeys the order!" Sensing Yuwen Haoxuan's determination, General Wang's face turned pale with anger, and then he saw Xi Xian following behind Yuwen Haoxuan.

Xi Xian bowed slightly to him and stood aside, because of Wang Baoluo's relationship, she couldn't develop much affection for the General Wang in front of her.

Xu Shi felt her uneasiness, General Wang turned his gaze to Yuwen Haoxuan and said, "I don't know if the little girl is safe in the palace. The old minister has not returned to Beijing for many years, and I am very concerned about it."

Yuwen Haoxuan's expression froze, and then he smiled again and said, "Don't worry, General, Wang Zhaoyi is fine in the palace, and I will not treat her badly."

"My little girl has been pampered and spoiled since she was a child. I hope you will forgive me if I have done anything wrong." General Wang bowed deeply after speaking, and even though he was facing Yuwen Haoxuan, he gave Xi Xian a deep look.

Xi Xian lowered her head and pretended she didn't see it, but her heart was churning. The things in the palace can't be hidden from others. General Wang must also know that Wang Baoluo beat her up. You don't need to think about the actions just now. He is making amends for Wang Baoluo.

Poor parents in the world!Xi Xian thought in her heart, raised her head and smiled back at General Wang, General Wang smiled happily like a child who made a mistake and was forgiven.

Looking at the two people who looked at each other and smiled, Yuwen Haoxuan felt relieved, and hoped that Wang Baoluo in the deep palace would one day understand the good intentions of the old general.
