Chapter 7

"Prepare the horse!" Murong yelled sharply, and his servants hurriedly led the horse to the gate of the mansion.Xiangxiang chased him out, but Murong Li had already galloped away.Xiangxiang supported the stone lion at the gate of the mansion, and the girl Bizhu hurried forward to support her: "Ma'am, it's all right, Ma'am, don't worry."

Xiangxiang let her help her back to the mansion. After all, she is a concubine of the palace, so how decent is it to stand in public at the gate of the mansion like this?However, she refused to go back to Xijiange, so she just waited by the side room.

When Murong Li rushed to Taiwei's mansion, Mrs. Zhou was coaxing Xuanxuan in her arms.The nurse and mother were not around, the child was crying hard, and the nurse in the mansion also coaxed him for a while, Mrs. Zhou was afraid that something might happen, so she came here in person.

Murong Li stepped forward, seeing that the child had already changed his diaper, he reached out to take it and held it in his hand.He was even worse at holding the child, and the child cried even harder and his voice became hoarse.Only then did Murong Li regret not bringing Xiangxiang along.

At this time, he couldn't care less, he carried the child out of Zhou Mansion, and hurried back to King Xun Mansion.

Xiangxiang heard the cry of the child from a long distance away, and ran out of the house without thinking about anything else.Murong Li dismounted and handed the child to her casually.Xiangxiang took the child, turned around and entered the palace without looking at him again.

He doesn't love her, and he doesn't love the child.That's right, she should have given up on that vain fantasy long ago.She is just a concubine, as long as she lives peacefully.Love, what a luxury that is.For a nobleman like him, the only thing he cares about is that little bit of white moonlight.Who is she, background, talent, what does she have?It's just a servant who stayed by his side to serve him when he met in the chaos.

The child cried so much that the nanny came to feed him, but vomited out after a while.Xiangxiang hugged her and walked around Xijianchi to coax her, and finally fell asleep.However, as soon as I stopped, I woke up, woke up and continued to cry.Xiangxiang had no choice but to walk around the lake all the time, with the cool night breeze blowing slowly, she hummed softly a ditty in the Lingzhi area.

Murong Li stood at the gate of the courtyard, watched for a while, but didn't go in.

As the night gradually darkened, the nurse finally came and took the child.Bizhu hesitated and said: "Ma'am, the prince has already rested in Tingfengyuan."

Xiangxiang nodded, didn't ask any questions, and ordered someone to fetch water to take a bath and freshen up.

In the middle of the night, Xiao Xuanxuan had a fever, and the nurse ordered someone to call for a doctor, and at the same time sent someone to report it.Xiangxiang put on her clothes and got up, and the maids were also busy getting medicine. The medicine halls were closed at night, but if the palace wanted medicine, of course it could be ordered anywhere.

Guan Jue went to the pharmacy on the opposite street, and soon the boss delivered the medicine himself.After the medicine was ready, Xiao Xuanxuan refused to drink it.Xiangxiang dipped a little with a small silver spoon, and gently wiped it on her lips, letting the medicine soak in little by little.Xuanxuan just cried, tossing and tossing for most of the night, exhausted, but finally calmed down.Anyway, Murong Li didn't come over, so Xiangxiang let the child sleep with her, fanning herself all night, and the sky was getting brighter.

When Murong Li woke up, he habitually stretched out his hand, but there was no one beside the bed, and then he remembered that he was listening to Fengyuan.The furnishings here have not changed in nine years.As soon as he got up, the servants outside came in to help him change his clothes.Murong Li took a mouthful of strong tea and asked, "How is the Princess?"

The servant bowed and said respectfully, "I had a high fever last night. I have seen a doctor and taken medicine."

Murong Li was slightly taken aback, why did he get sick so easily?
He got up and went to Xijiange, Xiangxiang had also gotten up and was holding Xiao Xuanxuan to feed her medicine.It's still going in very slowly.When Murong Li came in, everyone quickly knelt down and saluted.He waved his hand as a gesture.Walking to Xiangxiang, I wanted to hug the child, but Xiangxiang didn't let go.

He was slightly taken aback, and it would be shameless to rob a woman of a child, so he just patted the infant and asked, "What does the doctor say?"

Xiangxiang said in a low voice, "The fever is gone, and I don't vomit milk anymore."

Murong Li nodded, stopped talking, turned his head and left.

In the early court, King Yan really asked about the generals stationed at Yuhou Pass, and Murong Li, Murong Qian and Zhou Yi agreed and proposed candidates.After the court was over, Murong Bo took a few steps, followed behind Murong Li, and asked in a low voice: "Father doesn't want to send you to fight in Xijing?"

Murong Li was silent, and asked for a long time: "Who is most useful to you?"

Murong Bo was taken aback, and Murong Li said in a bad tone, "Don't make me ask a second time!" Mother-in-law, you woman!

Murong Bo said: "Old Five, I don't need to sacrifice you in exchange for anything, we are brothers!"

Murong Li said: "Do you want me to ask my concubine mother?" King Yan intended to cut his military power. Although Murong Qian, who was close to the crown prince, was also weakened, but the crown prince controlled the left and right battalions of the forbidden army. Wei is the queen's cousin, and Captain Shesheng is the queen's younger brother.Almost the entire Jinyang city is in the hands of the prince and queen.

Murong Bo was silent for a long time, and finally said: "The Xue family." The Xue family has been in charge for three dynasties, the disciples and old officials are all over Dayan, although the sharpness is not obvious, the roots are deep.

Murong Li returned to the palace and said directly to Guan Jue, "Go to Xue Shaocheng's mansion and see which of his daughters are not married at the right age."

"Ah?" Although Guan Jue knew his heart best, she was at a loss—what do you mean?
Murong Li left a sentence: "This king wants to marry a princess."

Guan Jue was stunned for a moment, then knelt down for a long time: "Congratulations, my lord, the villain will go down and get ready."

On Murong Li's face, there was no sign that anyone should congratulate him at all, he just said: "Go quickly."

Guan Jue went to Xue's mansion and found that Xue Shaocheng's daughters were old enough to be Murong Li's mother.Guan Juepu sweated, and finally asked his eldest granddaughter, but she happened to be sixteen years old and was still waiting in her boudoir.

When I came back and told Murong Li, Murong Li didn't even ask the girl's name, but just said: "Report to Zongzheng, what needs to be prepared, you can figure it out."

Guan Jue saluted: "Yes."

That day, Xiangxiang took Xiao Xuanxuan to bask in the sun in the mansion, and saw Guan Jue hanging red silk and red lanterns.She asked Bizhu beside her: "Is there any happy event in the mansion?" The prince's birthday?
Bizhu hesitated, and stopped talking.Xiangxiang was a little curious, and for a long time, Bizhu said softly, "My lord... is going to marry his concubine. I heard that she is the eldest granddaughter of Lord Xue Shaocheng, Marquis of Wending."

Xiangxiang was stunned, and smiled for a long time: "Oh. I haven't heard anyone mention it before." Bizhu glanced at her, but didn't speak, who would say this in front of her.

Xiangxiang noticed that look, with a little sympathy, but more helplessness.She lowered her head and went to tease Xuanxuan. On such a hot day, only under the rockery, the trickling water brought down a lot of heat.In fact, why is there any need to tell her, she doesn't need to know everything about this palace.She just needs to serve Murong Li well until...until Murong Li no longer wants her to serve her.The word status has nothing to do with her, perhaps, it has nothing to do with their mother and daughter.

At night, Murong Li was still resting in Xijiange.

Xiangxiang took a small flower hoe, carefully dug out a small jar of plum wine, and made a pot for Murong Li. After Murong Li tasted it, he felt that it was not tasty enough, of course it was not.She doesn't burn knives.After tasting it again, I felt that it was similar to sweet soup. In a blink of an eye, I poured it into a pot, as if I didn't drink it.He said, "One more pot."

Xiangxiang took out a few plates of dried fruit for him to drink, and the dried fruit was very fragrant.Murong Li didn't think it was cheap to drink some wine while eating dried fruit, in fact, no matter whether it was tasted or not, the taste was really good.Elegance is suffering, who is more comfortable wearing a court dress or a cotton bathrobe?The days of picking your teeth with your left hand and picking your feet with your right hand are hard to survive in this life, why don't you drink some wine and eat some fried dried fruit?
Xiangxiang sat at the table, embroidering Xuanxuan's little clothes stitch by stitch. The child grew up fast, and the clothes changed quickly.Although it is still summer, autumn and winter clothes need to be prepared early.

Murong looked at her sharply, only felt that this woman was really quiet, by her side, suitable for thinking about things.But Murong Li didn't have much to think about.Whoever is in the way, kick it away, if you can't kick it, flatten it, step on it.What's on your mind?It is his elder brother who needs to use his brain!
Murong Bo is indeed using his brain, now that the crown prince is getting more and more wings, according to the queen's behavior, once the crown prince ascends the throne, he and Murong Li will never get along well.

The king's father's reaction was a bit strange. He suddenly proposed to change the frontier generals. Han Xu, Zhou Zhuo, and Yan Qing were all Murong Li's confidantes. What does it mean to change them back?Is it to... let the crown prince ascend the throne smoothly and carry out the transition of imperial power?Father Wang is a very loving father, he will never abandon himself and his fifth brother for the sake of the prince.What was the reason that made him make such a hasty decision?Did he do this on purpose to remove roadblocks for the prince, or did something happen...a warning to himself and the fifth younger brother?
Murong Bo was so preoccupied that he didn't sleep all night.

The next day, King Yan did not come to court.

When Murong Li returned to the palace from the palace, he found many strange faces around the palace, he glanced at them, and these people immediately set up stalls and yelled as if nothing had happened.

Murong Li got off his horse, walked up to a sneaky person, and kicked him!The man didn't react at all, and immediately flew far away like a kite, spraying a mouthful of blood on the ground.The rest of the people were startled and immediately surrounded him, but no one dared to make a move.They hesitated, but Murong Li didn't hesitate.He grabbed the person on the ground, threw it down, and raised his knee again.There was only a click, and the man spat out a mouthful of blood, tilted his head, and died on the spot.Then he didn't stop, and immediately grabbed another person, who was pretending to be a sesame soup seller, and had a knife for cutting sesame soup.Murong Li's past is in his hands!With one stab, he directly opened the man.

It's too late to say, but it's just a blink of an eye.The real people and street vendors around were all frightened.Blood dripped from the tip of Murong Li's knife, and he said in a deep voice, "All irrelevant ones get out!"

In an instant, the irrelevant people left cleanly.The knife in Murong Li's hand rose and fell several times, and three heads fell to the ground again!These people were originally sent by the prince to monitor the movements of the palace, and they were not mediocre at first, but who would have expected that he would kill them as soon as they said they wanted to, without even asking if they were indiscriminate, and did not recover for a while.With this daze, five people have already lost their lives!

It was only then that a few people wanted to fight, but in the end they were at a disadvantage. People like Murong Li can win overwhelmingly with just a slight advantage.Just as they were about to make a move, two more people had already fallen.The remaining five shouted angrily, and all rushed forward.Murong Li fought hard for a while, dragged him horizontally, and four of them had their throats cut on the spot.Another stared at his companion in a daze, spurting four spurts of blood, almost peed his pants, and ran away!The knife in Murong Li's hand flew out, hitting his back.

A battle, but two face to face.After he finished beating, the guards in the mansion rushed out, and when they saw no less than ten corpses on the ground, their hair stood on end.My Lord!This is not a time of war, this is a time of peace!Lord, you killed ten people in the street...

Zhao Wu, the head of the guard, was about to cry: "Wang, Wang, Wang Ye, what did they do?"

Murong Li felt that his shoulder was a little strange, and it was not light when he took that blow.He frowned, I don't care what happened to them?If you dare to poke your head at the gate of Laozi's mansion, you will be damned!Don't they have to slash Lao Tzu's neck to be considered a crime?Leng snorted: "Ask yourself!"

Zhao Wu really cried this time!If I want to ask, they must agree!Turning around again, Murong Li had already entered the mansion.

He doesn't care - I have to take care of everything, so what's the use of you.

Zhao Wu reported to the officer that a dozen gangsters had come to the house and wanted to rob their houses, but they were killed by my prince in one fell swoop!

Facing the case file and the corpse, the Jinyang thief Cao Junqin stared at him in silence—running to your house to rob your house?You are not guilty of saying this!No, we can't tell such nonsense.Will be scolded as a stupid official!After thinking about it, how about a suicide sentence?
The crown prince is still waiting for news in the palace, waiting left and right, but there has been no news from Prince Xun's mansion.The prince was still worried, and sent someone to ask again.

The house slave came back and brought him something new—ten people couldn't think about it, and committed suicide collectively in front of King Xun's mansion.

Prince: "..."

Xi Jiange, Xiang Xiang made dinner for Murong Li, was eating, suddenly someone came in.The person who came was dressed as a servant, but with a straight figure and gentle eyes, he was definitely not a servant of Prince Xun's mansion!
Xiangxiang stood up in shock, no strange male servant would ever come in Xijiange.Murong Li only glanced at it, and said, "Add some bowls and chopsticks."

Xiangxiang didn't know Murong Bo, so she let out an ah, and Bizhu had already brought up the bowls and chopsticks.Murong Bo sat down next to Murong Li, and seeing Xiangxiang's suspicious expression, he hurriedly said gently, "I am the eldest brother of the fifth brother, Murong Bo."

Xiangxiang just got up. Fortunately, she learned etiquette when she entered the palace last time, and now she knows how to salute: "Lord Kang."

Murong Bo nodded: "They're all from my own family, so don't be too polite."

Murong Li was not very polite, he sat and ate his meal without moving.Murong Bo had already gotten used to it, sitting beside him, he was a little dazed when he saw the dishes on the table.A sweet and sour carp, a spicy pork tenderloin, a box of mushrooms, and a stuffed tofu, all of which are farm dishes, he wanted to laugh a little, the fifth man...

Picked up a chopstick of tofu, but only felt it was delicious and tender. Seeing the faint smile on his face, Xiangxiang just felt blush. Maybe making this for the prince is really...very shabby, right?

The dessert is an apple cup. Hollow out the big and round apples, soak the dried fruit and chop them up, steam the glutinous rice, put them in the apple cup, and steam them over water.Pour a little sweet and sour sauce before serving, put a bright red hawthorn on top, and the apple cup is carved with exquisite patterns, which is very ingenious.

Murong Bo almost laughed out loud, giving Lao Wu this kind of food... How is it different from the real version of the cow chewing peonies?He took one, took a bite with a small spoon, and thought it tasted really good.On a hot day, you can only eat something in front of these foods.Xiangxiang served him a bowl of soup, which was thick and whitish.Murong Bo took a few sips and found that it was actually rice soup.The soup drained out during cooking is served directly like this, without even a taste, just the strong aroma of the rice.

Murong Bo had a half-drink and was eating, Murong Li asked: "You dressed up like this just to come to my house for dinner?"

Murong Bo choked for a moment, and immediately blushed a little, and said: "Father, something happened, you should have noticed it, right?"

Murong Li stopped chopsticks slightly, but did not speak.Murong Bo said: "I don't think my father sent back Han Xu and Zhou Zhuo to reduce your military power. He gave us a signal and hoped that these three people would return to Jinyang to help you."

Murong Li's bushy brows furrowed slightly, and Murong Bo said: "Old Five, the life and death of the father is uncertain, and the crown prince may take action soon. I may need to go out of the city for a while."

Murong Li stared at him and asked, "What do you mean you need to go out of the city temporarily?"

Murong Bo looked slightly anxious: "Old Wu, although the crown prince suspects you, there is no evidence. Don't move, I will leave Jinyang. If something really happens to the father, the guards of Jinyang will be surrounded by the crown prince and the queen." In your hands. You..." You can rely on him, prosperity and wealth are always indispensable.

Murong Li's expression turned cold and he didn't speak.Murong Bo stretched out his hand and lightly pressed his shoulder: "Old Fifth, you have a wife and children now. I came here to worry about your impulsiveness."

Xiangxiang's face turned pale. Even if she didn't know the current situation, she knew what kind of juncture it was—they...would be in danger?
Murong Li sneered: "With you alone, can you escape from Jinyang City?"

Murong Bo stood up: "Old Fifth, I will do my best. You have to stay in Jinyang, Concubine Mu..." His eyes almost pleaded, "Please."

Murong Li said softly: "Your mansion has been monitored, right?"

Murong Bo smiled wryly: "Otherwise I don't need to come out in this outfit. But you don't have to worry, I have my own way to get out of the city."

Murong Li asked: "Where is sister-in-law? Where are nephews and nieces?"

Murong Bo said: "There are a few tenants outside the city, which are fairly trustworthy. I have made arrangements to give the children to them to take care of first."

Murong Li asked: "If I was in danger and came to you to say this, would you stand by and watch?"

Murong Bo remained silent, no, of course not.Since that year when he rescued Murong Li from the Cool Pool, he was his eldest brother.Even knowing that Concubine Shu treats him differently than Murong Bo.But Concubine Shu's Zhangwen Palace is also the only place in the entire Yanwang Palace that he can use the word "go back".

Murong Bo said: "The crown prince didn't attack you, it means that the father is still alive, but he may be seriously ill and unable to act. Otherwise he wouldn't be so bold." Even Prince Xun's mansion dared to send someone to monitor.

Murong Bo nodded, the two brothers looked at each other, Murong Li said: "Han Xu and the others are just outside Jinyang City, as long as they leave the city, there will be someone to meet them."

Murong Bo was taken aback: "They brought the troops back?"

Murong Li said: "It's not much, but it should be enough for us to escape to Pingdu Pass."

The corners of Murong Bo's mouth twitched slightly: "Old five... this escape is treason. If...if the father dies, you and I will have no room for maneuver except to rebel. The crown prince will not tolerate me, But you are different!"

Murong Li said: "He can't tolerate you, but he can't tolerate me." Murong Bo couldn't say any more, this is his brother.

Murong Li speeded up the planing, and said to Xiangxiang, "Clean up and bring the child with you."

Xiangxiang's forehead was covered with cold sweat, she agreed, and Murong Li said again: "Don't bring too many things."

The sky is getting dark, night and night.

Xiangxiang didn't bring much, just a burden.Murong Li asked Guan Jue to go out to prepare the carriage, and after the fourth watch, he led Xiangxiang out, and said to Guan Jue and Zhao Wu: "Distribute all the money in the account of the house to the servants, and send them all away before dawn. You two, find a place to hide yourself."

Guan Jue and Zhao Wu didn't ask any more questions, and immediately said, "Yes."

Murong Li asked Xiangxiang to carry the child into the carriage, and drove the carriage by himself. Just as he was about to leave, Guan Jue and Zhao Wuju both knelt down: "Master, if you go back to Jinyang and lack a housekeeper and servants, please be sure..."

Murong Li took a look at the two of them, nodded slightly, drove his horse and cart, exited the alley behind the back gate of Prince Xun's Mansion, and left.

At that time, the surroundings were pitch black, Xiangxiang hugged Xiao Xuanxuan, and lifted the curtain to take a look, not without fear, as if she had returned to the time when she escaped from Tu Hebu and hid in the grass.The dark and completely unfamiliar environment is frightening.

Murong Li and Murong Bo met at the Sutra Chanting Building, took their wives and children out of Willow Lane, and went straight to Xihua Gate.It was still early in the morning, and the gate of Xihua Gate had not yet opened. When Murong Li and others approached the gate, the soldiers guarding the city shouted angrily, "Who is it?"

Murong Li said in a deep voice, "Open the door!"

Seeing him, the city guards were still startled and hesitant, when suddenly a torch was lit beside him, and a person in the firelight said, "It turned out to be Prince Xun. I hurried out of the city at night, is there an imperial order from His Majesty?"

Murong Li turned his head to look over, and saw a person slowly walking out from the dim torch.His eyes narrowed slightly: "Is it you?"

The crown prince's confidant, Yu Chichong, commander of the Right Battalion Army.

Yu Chichong saw that he was the one rushing through the pass, and also sent two rows of archers to stand in front of him.He is still not at ease. Facing such a violent and vicious guy, a sense of security is such a luxury: "Don't move, or I will think someone..." Before he finished speaking, he felt a black shadow in front of him, suddenly No longer caring about dragging the text, he hugged his head and screamed: "Let the arrow! Let the arrow!"

At this time, where is there still time to shoot arrows?All he felt was a sharp pain in his throat.Damn am I dead?I must be dead!

Murong Bo had already captured him in his hands, and said flatly: "Kaicheng."

The two brothers cooperated perfectly, Murong Li appeared and attracted all the attention.Murong Bo secretly attacked.The sergeants looked around, and finally a lieutenant stepped forward timidly and opened the city gate.

Yuchi rushed to see that the person who caught him was Murong Bo, he suddenly felt a little bit hopeful - Murong Bo could easily find a way out!His posture was also lowered, and his face was also gone: "Master Kang, Lord Kang, spare your life! The villain is just a cannibal, a matter of loyalty! The villain is wrong, if you spare the villain..."

Before finishing speaking, Murong Li drove the carriage out of the city.When the car passed by him, Murong Bo jumped on it.Yuchi Chong was about to let out a long breath, but Murong Li stabbed him smoothly.

Blood splashed all over Murong Bo, Murong Bo frowned slightly: "Old five!"

Murong Li also frowned: "My fault." Murong Bo sighed, and just about to speak, Murong Li said again: "I didn't expect blood to splash on you."

Murong Bo was furious: "I mean you can't kill like this! This is the imperial capital of our Dayan, not a battlefield!"

Murong Li concentrated on driving and didn't even bother to make a sound.

Xiangxiang hugged Xiao Xuanxuan, and Murong Bo's concubine Su Jing was beside her.She also had two boys with her, the older one was seven or eight years old, and the younger one was four years old.

The men are talking outside, and the women certainly cannot sleep.Seeing that she was the only one, Xiangxiang asked softly, "Prince Kang... only brought your wife and two young princes?"

Su Jing said: "The matter happened in a hurry, and I didn't care too much."

Murong Bo is the eldest son of King Yan, of course there is not only one princess in the mansion.But now...it's not the time to drag the family out for fun.Of course the main concubine should take it with her, the side concubine can't take it away, let alone a concubine?
Su Jing smiled gently: "It's safer for them to stay in the mansion. The important thing is that the children must be brought out."

Xiangxiang nodded and said nothing more.In fact, if it is really based on her status, she is not qualified to say anything to Concubine Kang, right?She hugged Xuanxuan tightly in her arms, the carriage bumped and swayed, but the child slept soundly.Xiangxiang thought, maybe it would be much better than her fleeing from Tu Hebu, after all, this time, she still has companions...and a husband.Without a wet nurse, she had to nurse the baby herself.

Su Jing didn't have much to say to her, the difference in status could be described as heaven and earth.If it wasn't for Murong Li, even if it were any prince, with her status, she might not even be able to see Su Jing.

Not long after the carriage left the city, Murong Li signaled Murong Bo to come and drive the carriage, and after the carriage passed, he carried Murong Bo's two children out of the carriage.Xiangxiang and Su Jing didn't know what was going on, so they also dismounted.

Murong Bo moved the car on two stone slabs by the side of the road, making the ruts so deep that no one could see how few people were there, and deliberately drove the car far away, leaving no trace of a long stop.

Murong Li carried the child into a small courtyard, but there were already three peasant women waiting inside.Murong Li signaled them to come and take the child away, Xiangxiang was startled, and whispered, "My lord..."

Murong sternly shouted: "Shut up!"

Xiangxiang bit her lip: "The child is so young, I can't..."

Murong Li directly snatched Xuanxuan from her hand and handed it to a peasant woman.The peasant woman hugged her carefully, and when she saw tears in her eyes, she hurriedly said softly: "Madam, don't worry, our three families have been taken care of by Prince Kang for generations, but the prince has entrusted him, and he will never dare to live up to it. The child will be fed to be white and fat with us." fat."

Xiangxiang wanted to take out the things she had packed for the child in the bundle, but Murong Li grabbed her with one arm, dragged her into the carriage, and continued on her way.

The starry night was galloping, until it was about to dawn, Murong Bo came over to replace Murong Li, and said: "Go in and have a rest."

Murong Li was not polite to him either, for such a journey, both of them had to maintain ample physical strength.He got into the carriage, Su Jing and Xiangxiang were not asleep, Murong Li sat down beside Xiangxiang, did not speak, closed his eyes and rested.

The carriage swayed, and he bumped into her slightly from time to time. Seeing a bloodstain on his shoulder, Xiangxiang immediately leaned over and gently unbuttoned his shirt.Murong Li glanced at her, raised his eyebrows slightly - what are you doing teasing me at this time?Didn't you see the emperor's wife by your side?
Xiangxiang stripped his shirt to his waist, and Su Jing also wondered why this woman stripped her fifth younger brother's clothes like this—uncle and sister-in-law Benche, it was already embarrassing enough, this, this is too... She blushed Turning her back, Xiangxiang raised her head slightly, and found that Murong Li's complexion... was also slightly red. It turned out that such a man would be a little shy in front of women... But she could see clearly when he took off his clothes The scars on Murong Li's body made him scream.Murong Li didn't think it was just a skin trauma, nothing much.

Su Jing worried: "Without medicine, what should I do?"

Murong Li frowned: "It's okay."

"I brought it." Xiangxiang opened the bag and took the ointment from it.She is a careful person, thinking that they are going to flee, and injury may be unavoidable, so she brought some wound medicine.At this time, he soaked the wine with a clean cotton gauze, and gently washed his wound.When Murong Li was suppressing bandits outside Lingzhi County last time, she went with her and also bandaged slightly injured soldiers.Now it's neat to do it.She half squatted on the ground, gently applied the medicine for him, her full breasts were dangling in front of Murong Li's eyes.She has a scent mixed with milk and flowers, which is extremely alluring.Murong Li felt that his throat was a bit dry, and a part of his robe was pulled out, which made him feel extremely embarrassed.

After Xiangxiang applied the medicine to his wound and put on his robe, the part became more obvious.She was just about to sit next to Murong Li, when Murong Li hooked his toes, Xiang Xiang screamed in surprise, she couldn't stand still, she threw herself forward and embraced him.Murong Li simply hugged her like this, leaned her against her neck, and fell asleep.

Su Jing blushed and her heart beat when she saw it. A well-behaved person like Murong Bo would never be so close to her in front of others.She couldn't make a sound, but Xiangxiang's face turned red.Taking advantage of the bumping of the carriage, Murong Li raised his waist slightly and rubbed against her gently.She sensed his bad intentions and wanted to get up, but Murong Li held her in his arms like iron clamps with his right hand.In front of Su Jing, he didn't want to mess around, so he could only live his addiction with desire and dissatisfaction.Then he got angry and wished he could throw Murong Bo out of the car.Why don't you take a rest, you might as well stay outside and drive the car!
Just like this, they rushed on the road one after another. When it was noon, Murong Bo stopped at a farmhouse.He had already planned his escape route, and he was prepared along the way.After entering, the farmer prepared hot water for them to take a bath without asking any questions.

After Xiangxiang took a bath and changed her clothes, she was still worried about the child, but there was no one to ask.The peasant woman is busy preparing lunch, although Murong Bo has already arranged the escape route, but the time of his arrival is still uncertain after all.

The peasant woman was cooking, Xiangxiang entered the kitchen and said softly, "Let me help you."

The peasant woman was astonished, and then she was flattered and said: "Your Majesty, you can't help it. You are a noble person, you can't enter such a place. I'll just come by myself, please wait a moment."

Xiangxiang thought it didn't matter, in fact, no matter before or after she married Murong Li, she never felt like a noble or servant.She stepped forward to get the vegetables, picked them quickly, and washed them.

Seeing her quick hands and feet, the peasant woman couldn't help but didn't stop her anymore, she just said: "Your Majesty must cook often in the palace."

Xiangxiang smiled: "I often helped my mother cook at her mother's house, and she is familiar with all the work."

Seeing her kindness, the peasant woman couldn't help but said a few more words: "Your Majesty knows what kind of food the princes like to eat? I don't know if these are suitable for your appetite."

Although they knew that Murong Bo and the others would flee from here, it was impossible to buy ingredients in a big way after all. If the prince pursued closely, these were places where it would be easy to show his feet.

Xiangxiang actually laughed—in fact, she doesn't know what Murong Li and the others like to eat.Murong Li's sense of taste is very broad, and he also eats delicacies from mountains and seas, but he can swallow grass when necessary.The two were busy cooking in the kitchen, Murong Li, Murong Bo and Princess Su Jing took a bath and took a rest.

Su Jing is really tired. The daughter of the family is pampered and pampered after marrying Lord Kang.Leaning on the low couch, my eyelids kept fighting.Fortunately, the farmhouse had prepared a clean room, so they hurriedly took her inside to rest.

Murong Li and Murong Bo sat at the table, while looking at the map, circled the current locations of Han Xu and Yan Qing with one hand.While talking, the meal is ready.

The first thing to come up is the watermelon tenderloin, which is pork tenderloin. After washing and cutting into pieces, it is marinated with watermelon juice.Mash the garlic into a puree, saute the garlic in hot oil, then pick out the tenderloin and drain.Remove the yolk from an egg, and coat the meat with egg white.Then put the meat into the pot, fry slowly on low heat until cooked, then take a few eggs, beat them well, and fry them into egg skins.Take the most tender light green skin between the watermelon skin and flesh, and marinate it thoroughly with salt.

When serving, cut the middle skin of the watermelon into tenderloin-sized pieces, put them on the bottom, put the meat in the middle, and cover with egg skins of the same size.Use a little watermelon juice to make it thick, heat it in a pot, and pour it on the surface.Xiangxiang knife skills are good, and she carved a fat doll out of watermelon meat for decoration.

Murong Bo took a look, then smiled: "Old Wu, you did not marry the wrong woman."

Murong Li snorted, Murong Bo got up and asked Su Jing to come over for dinner, Murong Li picked up a piece and put it in his mouth directly, it was really good.

When several people came to the table to eat, Su Jing was also taken aback, and praised: "Although this peasant woman lives in the mountains, she has extremely skillful hands."

Murong Bo smiled: "It's the woman of the fifth child."

Su Jing was startled, then covered her mouth and smiled: "Fifth Brother has a precise eye for seeing people."

Anyway, Murong Li was eating with his head down, ignoring these two people, and running for his life, did he really think he was going out to play?

The second dish is beef sesame cakes. The golden sesame cakes are covered with sesame seeds, and the inside is delicious minced beef, each of which is burnt brown and crispy.This is a good thing. They are fleeing. Of course, they need to eat more meat to ensure their physical strength.Beef sesame cakes not only taste good, but more importantly, you can take away what you can't finish.

The third dish is roasted chicken with potatoes, which is simple and heavy enough for men to like.Then a rice soup was also served, the peasant woman did not dare to serve the soup just like that, so Xiangxiang just took a basin, put the rice soup on it, and served it directly on the table.

Su Jing felt that this was too little attention to aesthetics.But this meal is really full. She has never tried this kind of satisfaction when her stomach is warm and full of food in the palace or even her mother's house.

When the rice soup came, Xiangxiang sat next to Murong Li, and just took two bites, Murong Li put down his chopsticks, then wiped his hands and face with a wet sweat towel, and said, "Let's go."

The farmer's host stepped forward to help them change the water and brought some wine.Murong Li had already boarded the carriage.Murong Bo said softly: "Old Five!" Your woman hasn't eaten a few mouthfuls yet!

Murong Li frowned, Xiangxiang had already come out, she didn't dare to keep him waiting for a long time.

After getting into the carriage, Su Jing also felt a little sorry, and handed the dry food to Xiangxiang: "Eat some more."

Xiangxiang nodded, took two pieces of sesame cakes, and swallowed them with water.

In the evening, it was almost time to get out of Gyeonggi.There is a checkpoint on Jinji Ancient Road, and there is no doubt that the prince's people are guarding it now.

Murong Li arranged for Han Xu to wait outside the checkpoint, and if he was discovered, he could respond.

When crossing the mountain ridge, Murong Li suddenly said: "There is an ambush."

Murong Bo hummed, at this time it was the time when the sun was setting in the western mountains, and the forest should be home to all kinds of birds, but the dense forest here is eerily quiet, not a single bird is roosting.The fallen leaves float under the forest, which seems to be deliberately covering up the traces.Murong Bo said: "The crown prince's main target is me, and we will divide into two groups. You take your woman and Jingjing away, and I will go on horseback. They will definitely send out their main force to chase me. On the other hand, it also disperses its forces."

Murong Li had no objection: "Be careful."

Murong Bo smiled: "Don't worry, your elder brother is not that weak."

Of course Murong Li was still worried: "This is a good place to lay an ambush, did you make arrangements in advance?"

Murong Bo nodded: "There are two roads leading to Daji City. One is the main road, which is flat and easy to walk. The other is a small road, which is winding and rugged. The prince's people did not know that we would take this road in advance. Now they know that we will go all the way. Taking a carriage, I think it was setting up an ambush on the main road. I will go to the small road and lead them away, and you continue to drive forward."

The two brothers looked at each other for a long time, Murong nodded vigorously.Murong Bo turned his head and said to the car, Su Jing just said hello.Murong Bo got out of the carriage, untied one of the two horses that were pulling the carriage, got on the horse, and said to Murong Li: "Brother, go ahead! See you at Daji City!"

Murong Li waved his hand impatiently: "Get lost."

Murong Bo also laughed: "Your etiquette... how did the Taifu not die of anger back then..." While talking, he slapped his horse to the west.

The archers lying in ambush in the forest were stunned!The main target of Prince Murong Shen is Murong Bo, of course he cannot be let go!The people in the forest immediately chased him out.Murong Li drove along the original road.

Of course Murong Bo's riding skills are not outstanding, naturally these archers can't catch up.The leading general was not an idiot either, so after chasing for a while, he turned to say, "Li Lin, you immediately lead a team to chase the carriage!"

The speed of the carriage is much slower than that of the horse, not to mention that there is only one horse-drawn carriage now.The sound of horseshoes behind him gradually approached, Murong Li ordered people to run forward by themselves, holding an arrow and drawing a bow, and shot and killed the approaching soldiers on the spot.Li Lin hurriedly made people shoot, but Murong Li's carriage was inlaid with black iron plates on all sides, it was difficult to shoot through it for a while.

Xiangxiang and Su Jing were in the car, listening to the rain of arrows outside like locusts, and sometimes someone screamed that the arrow fell off the horse, and the two of them had already turned pale.Su Jing didn't care about her status at this time, and tightly held Xiangxiang's hand.

The carriage was driving too fast, and it was inevitable that it would become unstable, and the two of them bumped against the wall of the carriage from time to time.

Murong Li kept paying attention to the situation in the rear. He held a bow alone, but no pursuers could approach him. He shot and killed more than a dozen people in a row.

Murong Li beat the horse desperately, the horse was already running like flying.However, after a short time, the carriage bumped against a rock, the body of the carriage tilted, and the shaft of the carriage got stuck in the crevice of the rock, and there were cracks.No, if this continues, he will definitely be caught up.

It was only a small group of enemies chasing him, he might still have a way out alone, but if he wanted to protect two women... there was no time for hesitation, he had to make a choice immediately!
He turned around and got into the carriage, grabbed Su Jing with one hand, and then swung his knife to cut off the ropes that were harnessed to the horse. Before the carriage stopped, he had already carried Su Jing onto the horse.

Xiangxiang supported the carriage and got off with great difficulty.Murong Li turned his face away, didn't even look at her, and said like a stone: "If you don't want to die, run to the depths of the woods!"

Xiangxiang was stunned, took two steps forward, then understood, and stopped in a daze.Murong whipped the horse sharply, the horse rushed out like an arrow leaving the string, raising smoke and dust like mist.The setting sun was blood red like a brocade, and Xiangxiang stood in the middle of the mountain road in a hurry.

Su Jing was still in shock, she seemed to understand at this moment, she held onto his clothes tightly, and cried out, "Fifth brother!"

Murong Li didn't look back, and from the corner of his eyes, he saw her standing there in a daze for a moment, then picked up the hem of her skirt with both hands, and fled staggeringly to the dense forest.The pain is like a thorn, suddenly piercing the epidermis and deep into the flesh and blood when there is no defense.

Xiangxiang ran desperately into the dense forest, the grass blades were long and sharp, scratching scars on her delicate skin.But she didn't feel any pain, the sound of horseshoes approaching behind her, her mind went blank, she only knew to run forward.She thought that maybe she shouldn't be sad, who is more important between her and the princess, that is simply a matter of no choice.But while running, there were tears like pouring down. For a man of high position and authority, a concubine is just a pastime in his spare time and should not be wronged.

Once upon a time there was a sheep that ate grass desperately and grew up desperately.It gives birth to lambs, milks them, and shears their sheep.It doesn't think it's paying, it thinks it's growth, it's a kind of happiness.But if one day, it knows that a catty of mutton is only worth fourteen copper coins, no matter how strong a person is, you can't help but feel sad.
