Chapter 150

Chu Zongge rode a horse and led a team of soldiers into the mountains. In the morning, the forest was always filled with mist, and there was another comfortable moisture in the air. Let dew drip from one's hair.

Chu Zongge turned and asked, "are you sure it's this place?"

Xie Yingmei quickly nodded and replied, "they are behind the mountain."

"HMM." Chu Zongge turned to Xue ronghua again. "Do you think she won't lie to you?"

"The Begonia birthmark is definitely unique to general Xie's daughter. I've seen her once," Xue ronghua said firmly in his eyes. "If I could see general Xie..."

"Do you know where we are stationed?" Chu Zongge pulled the reins leisurely. "It was the place where Mu's army of Qi fought with Liu's army of Chu."

Xue ronghua was stunned. "The Mu family army was framed and killed."

"So is Liu Jiajun." Chu Zongge's eyes darkened, "so when you see general Xie later, you will also meet Liu Jiajun's people."

"I made some speculation according to Xie Yingmei's words. When Liu Jiajun and Mu Jiajun fought, both sides were framed to become the substitute for the death of the country. They killed the rest of the lucky survivors. They naturally formed an alliance and became the bandits who lived by robbing money in the mountains."

Chu Zongge looked at her approvingly, "Xie Yingmei can enter the state of Qin and meet princess Poyang. It shows that Mrs. Heyi also knows that there are still people living in the Liu family army, and she has also met Prince Chen and Mrs. Heyi. That means that Prince Chen is far away from Kyoto and has become a bridge for Mrs. Liu family army and Mrs. Heyi to send messages."

Xue ronghua bowed his head in shame. "I never thought anyone would survive."

"Liu Jiajun and Mu Jiajun are the strongest troops of the two countries. As long as they are not killed, they can naturally survive."

"Since he is Mrs. Heyi's friend, Xiang He is reliable," Xue ronghua glanced at Xiang He. "Does she know these things?"

Chu Zongge smiled gently, "she's afraid she knows better than us."

The procession marched further into the mountains for a long time. But still can't find the bandit nest mentioned by Xie Yingmei. Xue ronghua knew from the bottom of his heart that the bandits should have long been aware of their invasion, and had already hid and started to deal with them.

Xiang He looked up and looked around the high mountains. He saw the leaves trembling gently in the mist and nodded slightly to Chu Zongge.

This group of bandits originally wanted to siege them from the mountains. Chu Zongge hid the smile on her lips and said to Xie Yingmei, "this is your people. Say hello to them."

Xie Yingmei shook her head like a rattle and said, "you fight."

Chu Zongge thought that the strange woman should have some hidden diseases. She spoke vaguely. "Xianghe, you should be ready. They are friends of Mrs. Heyi. They will react at the sight of your face."

Xiang he cleared his throat and shouted, "Princess Poyang, send Miss GUI back to the house."

The air stagnated for a second, the leaves on the high mountains trembled, and two or three people dressed as bandits jumped out of the grass in front.

The bandit in the head held a machete and said vigilantly, "are you princess Poyang?"

Xiang He said positively, "you can ask Miss GUI. She has seen me before."

The bandit glanced at Xie Yingmei and whispered, "Miss, general Xie has been looking for you for a long time."

Xie Yingmei was embarrassed to stand in a stalemate with the Bandit on her horse. Seeing her reluctant appearance, the bandit hurriedly advised, "Miss, go back quickly. The general is waiting for you."

Seeing the opportunity, Xiang he interrupted, "why don't I go with you."

Xie Yingmei said gratefully, "OK, I'll go in with the princess."

The bandit hesitated and said, "princess, don't go in... Your golden body..."

There was an irresistible fierce look between Xiang He's eyebrows and eyes. He said with a smile, "I know. As the emperor's concubine, Mrs. Heyi also keeps in touch with you from time to time. I can't even see the friends of the mother concubine. Maybe there are relatives of the mother concubine."

The bandit made up his mind and said sadly, "all your relatives in Liu Jiajun have died. Now there are only mu Jiajun."

The face of Xiang he was stiff and bit his pale lips.

Xue ronghua's scalp was numb when he heard this "Mu Jiajun", and the past flooded into his mind, "even if the people of Liu Jiajun are gone, the king Duan and Princess Poyang are still there. They miss their mother Princess very much when they grow up. Don't adults even allow this kind of love?"

Before the bandit spoke, a low voice came from behind, "princess, do you remember me?"

Xue ronghua looked back, his heart surging and Peng worshipped. This is general Xie. She restrained her calmness and nodded to Xiang He.

"Are you general Xie?" Xiang he thought carefully.

The old bearded as like as two peas, who were old but still full of gas, came to them with a smile. "The princess is exactly the same as the empress."

Xiang He raised his lips and smiled, "the world says I'm like a mother's concubine."

"No matter what, it's a bit of Xirong's temperament," general Xie touched his beard. "Maybe he's been in Xirong for a long time."

General Xie felt a burning look on him. He turned and saw a handsome and tall man standing on the horse, followed by a heroic woman in armor.

The woman's posture of standing on a horse is somewhat like that of her predecessors. General Xie narrowed his eyes and bowed to the man, "Duan Wang."

Chu Zongge came down from his horse and saluted him: "I didn't expect that the mother imperial concubine and her family and friends were here. If I hadn't met your daughter, I wouldn't know."

General Xie said with a smile, "you also know that these family and friends can't see the light. Naturally, your mother and concubine can't talk to you."

Chu Zongge came to Xie Yingmei's seat, stretched out his hand to her and said softly, "Miss Xie, get off your horse."

Xie Yingmei stared at the handsome man and was stunned.

General Xie coughed softly behind him, "Yingmei, come down quickly."

Xie Yingmei shrunk back and looked at Chu Zongge with praying eyes, "I don't want to go back."

Xue ronghua's throat was dry and uncomfortable. She opened the kettle, swallowed her saliva, held up a smile and said to general Xie, "Miss Xie has always resisted coming back to you. Is she afraid of anything?"

General Xie pursed his lips and asked, "are you?"

Xue ronghua said with a smile, "I'm the princess of Duan Wang and the female official of the princess."

"It's Princess Duan," general Xie nodded slightly. "You should also know the war between Qi and Qin. Ying Mei was lucky to be saved from the battlefield. She woke up like this."

"Oh," Xue ronghua lowered her eyelids. When she learned the news of the annihilation of Mu's army, she broke her intestines and indulged in the grief of bereavement all day. "No wonder Miss Xie always said it was terrible."

"What a tragic thing it is for loyal soldiers to be abandoned by the state," said general Xie with a sad smile. "Yingmei still lives on the day when we were killed by people sent by the state of Qi."

Chu Zongge looked at Xue ronghua's complex and dignified expression, and knew that he and she had already been ravaged by a rainstorm and wind. Familiar relatives are in front of us. The words we want to tell are still on our lips, but we can't say anything. It's a white struggle.

"Miss Xie," Chu Zongge smiled at her and reached out to grab the reins of the horse, "don't you like the princess very much? What are you afraid of with the princess around you?"

The mist in the forest has dispersed, and the warm sunshine has spilled down and accumulated in his Obsidian eyes. Xie Yingmei is stunned. The tension in her heart has not faded, but her hand has been put in his palm.

Chu Zongge carefully helped her off her horse and sent her to general Xie. "General, please be convenient. Can you let the princess accompany Miss Xie in?"

General Xie gave Xiang He a complicated look in his eyes. "Princess, does she know that her father is Prince Chen?"

Chu Zongge sighed, "she's not very clear. I hope general Xie won't tell her so that she won't be too sad."

General Xie knew it clearly in his heart and nodded: "please."

Xue ronghua saw that general Xie's tight face was a little relaxed and hurried down from his horse.

General Xie was stunned and asked, "does the princess want to go in with the princess?"

Xue ronghua explained with a faint smile: "I am the female official accompanying the princess. I must always follow the princess."

"Yes," Xiang he stretched out his hand and dragged her to his side. "She served me when she grew up. She will go to the state of Qi together in the future. She won't talk about things here."

The so-called bandit's nest was originally a thatched house built in the deep forest and kept a group of chirping chickens, ducks and geese. A large vegetable field was cultivated in front of the house, which was full of fresh and green vegetables, melons and fruits.

Unexpectedly, general Xie, who once lived in a big house surrounded by slaves, lived such an idyllic life in the deep mountains and forests. Xue ronghua clenched his hands again. Meng Qianzhong's vicious plot did not know how many people were harmed.

"Princess, come in and have tea," general Xie took off his headscarf and put down his gray hair. "Yingmei, go in quickly."

Xie Yingmei was closely following the princess and did not dare to move half a minute.

General Xie was afraid that he was used to her ignorant appearance. He didn't care about her. He just asked Xiang He and Xue ronghua to sit down and have tea.

Xiang he glanced at the tea cup. He didn't know what tea was in it. He thought it was very rough. It should be planted in his own home. "I heard Miss Xie say that you had seen me in the state of Qi?"

"Yes," general Xie nodded. "At that time, Ying Mei was just six or seven years old. She always had nightmares at night. When Mrs. Heyi knew it, she asked me to take her into the palace to find the imperial doctor. The imperial doctor prescribed some medicine to calm her nerves and nourish her Qi. She had been a little for several years, but as soon as she left with Mrs. Yi, she began to get sick after taking medicine."

"Miss Xie's illness always stays on the day when Liu Jiajun and Mu Jiajun fight," Xue ronghua frowned. "General Xie can go to the state of Qi to see a doctor."

General Xie smiled bitterly, "I don't know how many years I haven't stepped into the gate of the state of Qi. I don't dare to go back. I'm afraid to see my former acquaintances, which has hurt him and me."

Xue ronghua comforted: "how many years have passed since this happened, and they won't notice it."

"But the emperor is still the emperor," general Xie took a deep breath. "He will not allow the traitor to live in this world."

"You are not a traitor. You were framed by Meng Qianzhong. He just saw your great achievements, so he fabricated charges and hurt the killer when you fought with blood." Xue ronghua's words killed her heart word by word, and the needle saw blood. She said these in one breath, like pouring out her humiliation she endured in the past and her guilt for not helping Liu Jiajun at this moment.

General Xie saw that her face was red and said inexplicably, "how do you, a female official, know this?"
