Chapter 22

A gust of cold wind blew, and I couldn't help shivering.The fire gradually faded in the distance, and there was a sound of horseshoes galloping.

Chunyu Qiong reined in the reins, saw Zhang Rang's corpse by the light of the fire, and before dismounting in time, shouted, "Second Young Master, that is Zhang Rang's corpse." I nodded sadly, and sighed; "The emperor and King Chen Liu Are you okay?" Chun Yuqiong's horse circled around Zhang Rang's body, and said nervously; "Great changes have taken place in the palace, the general He Jin was killed by the ten servants, and your father led the troops to fight fiercely with the eunuchs. Duan Gui and Zhang Rang hijacked His Majesty and King Chen Liu and fled to Beimang Mountain overnight. Fortunately, the second son arrived in time, otherwise His Majesty will be in trouble, and the Han Dynasty will be in turmoil again." I sighed heavily, coldly Said; "What should happen will happen sooner or later, it seems that we can't change anything."

Chunyuqiong obviously couldn't understand what I said, she was startled, and said, "This is not a place to stay for a long time, it's important for us to protect His Majesty and return to Luoyang."

I nodded, thinking; I'm afraid it won't be easy.

The five hundred sergeants were all infantry, and there were only three horses in the army.Naturally, the emperor could not share a ride with others.The king is pampered and can't walk. In terms of official rank, Chunyu Qiong is the most respected here, and he has the highest martial arts, and he is responsible for escorting. Of course, he also has to ride a horse.Then I just have to walk.

The mountain road is rugged and difficult, with thorns and weeds all over the road.Although most of the sergeants had already lit the torches, the faint light of the fire was still too pale and insignificant against the boundless darkness.It takes almost half a stick of incense to walk ten steps.With such a speed, wouldn't it be strange not to be caught by Dong Zhuo?

I said to Chunyuqiong: "This is not the way, we must send someone to Luoyang for help, please send reinforcements quickly to pick him up." Before Chunyuqiong agreed, King Chen Liu nodded first; "Mr. You go for a walk and ask your lord to send troops to rescue you." I thought to myself; "No, I can't go, and it's too dark, I feel hairy." Hesitated for a while, and said respectfully; "Your Majesty, it's not that I'm shunning you. Rather, I really can't bear to leave His Majesty and the King alone at another critical moment. And to be honest, I don't know the way back. This--it might be a mistake. Your Majesty might as well send a veteran who is familiar with the terrain It’s better to go back.”

Emperor Liu Bian glanced at me, lowered his head and sighed, drooped his head and said nothing, looking like he was dying.

Having said so much, I just don't want to leave.

I have my plan, my father's reinforcements can't arrive in time, once I meet Dong Zhuo, I will fight him with the [-] elite soldiers in my hand, and I will persist until the reinforcements arrive.

King Chen Liu sighed; "Young Master Yuan is still thoughtful, it is indeed inappropriate to send you back, General Chunyu, please find a veteran who is familiar with the terrain to go back, meet Captain Yuan, and ask him to send troops to rescue him. "

Chunyu Qiong smiled wryly, and said in embarrassment; "Even if you are familiar with the terrain, you have to walk back to Luoyang. When you get there, it might be daylight, and it doesn't matter if General Yuan picks you up or not."

This is indeed a tricky problem, and I can't do anything about it.Just as he was hesitating, King Chen Liu suddenly dismounted from his horse and said in a deep voice, "Your Majesty can't stand this night. Moreover, in today's troubled times, the people are treacherous and bandits are rampant. If you can't make the Holy Majesty stay here for a while, let the soldiers ride on the horse." My horse, go ask for help."

Chunyuqiong hurriedly said, "How is this possible? Your Majesty has a body of gold and jade, so how can he endure the pain of running around. I'd better let someone ride my horse." I hurriedly stopped him and said, "No, uncle has a great responsibility, and he can't live without a horse. , if there are thieves coming, you can deal with it calmly." Chunyu Qiong thought about it, the most important thing at present is to protect the silent emperor, and the lives of other people, including King Chen Liu, seem insignificant.So don't insist anymore.

An old soldier galloped away on King Chen Liu's war horse.In an instant, the sound of horseshoes ceased.My heart widened a little, and I thought, if I can get the emperor under control before the thief Dong enters the city, then the emperor will issue an order to retreat.He Jin is dead, Luoyang is the world of the old man.

I'm secretly smug.Suddenly put his hands on my shoulders and said: "The feeling of walking is really uncomfortable, my widow, I am a little tired." I sighed secretly in my heart, and said to myself; I am afraid that your fatigue has just begun.As for me, I have the heart to serve the country, but I am unable to support the sky?

I suddenly smiled, I may not be able to turn the tide, but with the future emperor behind my back, this great achievement cannot be let slip away.To flatter you, you have to know the timing.He hasn't become the emperor yet, so this is the right time to flatter him.

Before he becomes the emperor, you treat him better, and when he becomes the emperor, he will definitely repay you tenfold.If you wait until the person's status is ninety-five years old before you curry favor with him, it will be nothing compared to ascending to the sky.And he doesn't seem to appreciate it.

I wiped the sweat off my forehead, and said with pain in my heart; "Your Majesty is a body of gold and jade, how can you suffer this kind of pain, every time I think about it, I feel heartbroken." I squeezed out two tears and cried bitterly; "Your Majesty loses his mount, and the humble minister is willing to travel for the King, so the King can just use the humble minister as a horse to ride, and the humble minister will not hesitate to do anything."

Chen Liuwang was born in the same year as me, and he is also a teenager at heart, and I have already seen that he is a hot-blooded and temperamental person, so I deliberately said it very sensational.

Sure enough, the king couldn't hold back his tears, and said sadly; "The widow is just a vassal king, and Mr. Yuan can still do this, which shows that Mr. Zhai is kind-hearted and loyal to the country. The Yuan family is indeed loyal for generations. One day, the king Your success will definitely live up to your son." "Hey," I sighed; "Your Majesty, there is no need to do this, as long as you remember that our Yuan family is loyal, diligent for the country, loyal like a dog, simple and uncomplaining, without greed It is enough to be ready to die at any time to repay the country's kindness. In fact, these are also the foundation of being a minister. My father has always warned me like this. If the king asks me to do something in the future, the Yuan family will be the first in the world." I said this for future generations Make a foreshadowing.If I can't stop Dong Zhuo from entering Luoyang.Then in the next few decades, whoever can coerce the emperor to make the princes can win the world.

He didn't know whether he really listened to it or pretended to listen to it, he just nodded and said: "Yes, yes, yes."

Chen Liuwang may be really tired, before I finished speaking, he couldn't wait to lie on my back.In fact, I am also very tired.These years in Yuan's family also lived a pampered life.There are people walking on the mountain road on their backs.I have no choice but to fight for my loyalty.

I gritted my teeth and said, "Your Majesty, please rest assured. Even if I die, I will have to send you back to Luoyang to die." After all, King Chen Liu doesn't know much about the world. He didn't respond, and said, "I hope so." Regardless of his possibility of becoming emperor, he must have been thrown down.I am also mad.

I trekked hard with him on my back, and after walking for about an hour, I was really exhausted, so I wanted to find a place to rest first.Unexpectedly, the prince Chitose fell asleep on my back.Although I was angry, but after thinking about it, it was not easy for him.Maybe I haven't suffered this kind of suffering since I was born.

Don't say you have eaten it, you just heard it, and you may not believe it.

After walking for half an hour, Chun Yuqiong suddenly raised his hand to stop the queue, and said to me, "Second Young Master, there is a light in front, it seems that there are people living here." I was so happy that I almost threw King Chen Liu out, and gasped weakly; "It's good if it's true. Your Majesty and the King are probably hungry and need something to eat." Liu Bian, who had been sitting on the horse, dejected and silent, said suddenly; "Yes, I also feel abdominal muscles. , thirsty, and want some food."

My god, the emperor finally spoke, and I finally heard the dragon chant.To be honest, there is no difference between talking with ordinary people, but it is a little sour.Voice is also very dry.

Chunyu Qiong bowed immediately and said, "Your Majesty, please be patient for a while, calculate the distance, and we will arrive in half an hour." I almost jumped up, thinking, "Damn it, Your Majesty can be patient, but I can't I’m tired. I’m exhausted.” From this incident, we can learn a lesson: It’s not easy to be a loyal minister.
I gritted my teeth fiercely, and persisted for another half an hour, panting and crawling.The most exasperating gasp did not dare to be too loud, for fear of startling the king's king.

Turning around the low hill, you can see the shadows of houses in front of you in the distance.At the foot of the mountain, a manor.The imposing manner is extraordinary, it seems that it should be a wealthy family.The first thing that comes to my mind is horses.If King Chen Liu was allowed to ride like this again, maybe I would have died before Dong Zhuo saw it.That's a real pity.I have been praying silently in my heart that the family would have a horse.
