Playful Queen

Chapter 180

"Young Master, you will arrive at the Misty Forest after passing the small town ahead, and you will soon reach Yancheng."

"Yeah." The man hummed lightly to indicate that he knew, and then the thick voice sounded again: "Which girl was the one who greeted you just now?"

"Yes, young master, she is also going to Yancheng."

After hearing this, the man stopped making a sound, and only coughed a few times, and then he was blown away by the wind and disappeared...

"My lord, we will be able to arrive at Yancheng tomorrow morning." The coachman said to Mengli who was in the carriage, flicking his whip.

Mengli opened the curtain of the car, looked at the long official road, with a faint smile on her face, and finally it was almost there, "Thank you so much for this journey, brother, when I get to Yancheng, I will definitely give you twice as much." wages."

"Where is this? I have been driving for so many years, and this is the first time I have met such a talkative guest as the young master. He can take care of my food and drink along the way. I should thank you, young master." The coachman said with a smile, thinking But I feel lucky for this errand. I used to bring my own food and drink when I drove the car. How could anyone invite a guest, but this young man is different. There is a war, you should be careful when you go, son."

The car entered the foggy forest, where the trees are lush, and there is a bottomless torrent not far away, Meng Li saw that the driver was also a little tired, so she said: "Brother, let's go to the river to rest for a while before we go on our way." .”

The coachman responded and parked the carriage under a tree. Meng Li got out of the carriage and walked to the river. It was only possible to detour to Yancheng from the upper reaches.

Mengli looked at the sky, the sky was getting dark gradually, and she was about to go back to the carriage to set off, when she heard the rapid sound of horseshoes from the depths of the forest, thinking it was those people offering rewards to hunt her down again, so she immediately went to find her. Leaning on a big tree with a little tiptoe, he jumped into the dense branches and leaves, looked down and waited for them to pass by. Who knew that after waiting for a while, these people stopped here without showing any sign of leaving.

There are about a hundred people and horses below. Looking at their well-trained movements, you can tell that it is not an ordinary cavalry team. Everyone is wearing black brocade clothes, riding tall black horses, and their expressions are sturdy, just like big men on the prairie. , strong physique.

Suddenly, a man galloped up, and there were hundreds of horses behind him. Although they were dressed like ordinary people, they knew it was not easy at first glance. The leading man quickly jumped off the horse, knelt down on one knee, and reported: "My lord, people have almost entered the forest, and they add up to no more than 20 people."

"Is there anyone who protects you?" The man in navy blue brocade sitting high on the black horse pondered for a moment. Based on his knowledge of Lurong Zhanle, besides leading the Twelve Rocky Army, he might also be there Guards were dispatched elsewhere.

"My lord, there is no one else but them. The subordinates also searched around, but found nothing."

Hearing what his subordinates said, the man in the navy blue brocade robe laughed arrogantly, "Haha, it seems that he is dead this time! He can't go back safely!"

"Continue to investigate and find out about them, all of you are ready for me!"

"Yes!"

Meng Li listened to their conversation, it seems that this is to intercept the murder halfway, and from what they described, it seems that they are going to kill the old man and the others, although they don't know what is wrong with them, they send killers one after another. Put them to death.

This matter has nothing to do with her, it's better for her not to get involved, but...

Mengli hesitated for a moment. She said that she would repay them if she had the opportunity in the future, so how could she pretend not to see this matter?However, she alone has no ability to solve it.

After thinking about it, he finally made a decision, and while they were changing places, he jumped off the tree and quickly returned to the place where the groom was waiting for him.

"My lord, you're back. It's getting dark, so let's hurry up." The groom immediately jumped down and said when he saw Meng Li.

She took out the burden from the carriage, took out a certain amount of white silver and threw it to the groom, "I'll give you the silver first, please wait here for another hour, if I haven't come back, you can go back to the ancient camp city."

"Sir, you are..."

"Drive the carriage to a more secluded place over there." After Mengli ordered, she carried the burden on her back and ran towards the direction she came from.

It was dusk, and there were people hiding everywhere in the woods. I saw a group of people standing on a road in the woods. There were two people in the lead. One looked strong and resolute, and the other looked more like a scholar. , sitting high on the horse, as if waiting for someone.

"The Rocky Army is not an ordinary army. Can we arrange it like this..."

"As long as the patient is killed here, when the old master passes away, the little prince will be able to ascend to the throne safely, and the world of our Wanyan family will be in the future." Wanyan Zhuohong's face was gloomy. , when?
"Report! People have entered the forest." A crisp voice sounded, and it didn't take long before four carriages were slowly approaching them.

law……

There was a long howl, and two teams of people stood facing each other. Under the night, the huge woods became silent at this moment. Mengli stood on a tree not far away, watching this very different scene, frowned. He frowned, and although he chose a place where he couldn't hear what they were saying, he still decided to check the situation first.

"Wanyan Zhuohong, what do you mean?!" The old gentleman stood in the front of the Twelve Rocky Army in a black robe, with a deep expression on his face, but without a trace of fear.

The middle-aged man who was called Wanyan Zhuohong smiled big, held the rein with one hand, and curled up his mouth.

"Mr. Nake, isn't this very clear? Today I will avenge His Highness!"

It seems that Wanyan Zhuohong is still brooding over the events of that year, and it happened that His Highness the Fourth Highness left Xili this time to assassinate him. Thinking of this, Mr. Nake's expression became more and more serious.

"You are still obsessed with your obsession. If His Highness Hong Lie hadn't asked His Highness Fourth Highness to let your Wanyan family go, you would have been so rebellious!"

"Immortal treason? Isn't it treason if the Fourth Highness kills his elder brother?"

"In the Battle of Bianzhou, His Royal Highness led the soldiers to fight against the Jin army for two full years. If His Royal Highness hadn't refused to release military rations and reinforcements for personal reasons, Xili's army would not have suffered countless casualties!" Mr. Nake said with a solemn expression. The more intense the anger surfaced, the two years of continuous fighting failed, and he actually said here that His Highness the Fourth Highness is treasonous. If he doesn't kill His Highness, how can he explain to those thousands of soldiers, how to explain to the common people of Xili!
