The emperor always wants to promise himself

Chapter 232 Birthday Matters
After going back, Xiao Yu showed the appearance of the stone to the Xuanyi guards, and told them to look for it like this tomorrow, and then asked everyone to rest after eating early.

The next morning we went into the mountain again. We searched more than half of it yesterday, but today we found a few such stones here and there. Outside.

There were big ones and small ones, the big ones were as big as two human heads, and the small ones were only half the size of a palm. When the Xuanyi guards saw them, they dug them out and took them out.

But when it got dark, they still couldn't find a specific place to store or mine this kind of stone.

It looks like they're hiding pretty deep.

"Master, what should we do now, go back? Or look for it again?"

Tsing Yi and Lan Yi were standing against the tree, Tsing Yi was fanning the wind with his hands, a layer of fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, Lan Yi's movements were not as exaggerated as his, but he was also holding the water bag and drinking one gulp after another, it was obvious that he was also tired It's not light.

Xiao Yu sat directly on the ground, and shook his head when he heard the words: "No, everyone, take a good rest, get up early after going to bed, and we will leave for Beijing."

"Huh? Then don't check here?"

Tsing Yi paused and looked at Xiao Yu in surprise.

Xiao Yu raised his eyebrows to look at him, picked up the water bag and gulped down a big gulp, some water flowed out, Xiao Yu wiped it off with the back of his hand nonchalantly, "It took so much effort to find such a little clue, you'd be a fool if you didn't check. "

"Then we-"

Lan Yi glanced at him, buckled the water bag and threw it into his arms, and said coldly, "You idiot."

Tsing Yi: "..."

"Hiss - do you want to fight? I'm talking to the master, what are you talking about?"

Lan Yi snorted softly, didn't bother to pay attention to him, and turned around to pull the fire. Seeing that the fire was small, he added some wooden branches to it.

Tsing Yi glanced at him blankly, "What's the matter with you?"

Xiao Yu smiled, "You, have you forgotten what date it is today?"

Tsing Yi counted on his fingers, "We came out three plus two plus one plus two. It's been eight days since we came out, um... it should be March 28."

"What happened to 28?"

"The fourth day of April is His Majesty's birthday. We have been delayed for eight days. If we don't go back, we really can't make it back. In case of rain or something along the way, the mountain road is difficult to walk and delay..." Xiao Yu chuckled , with a bit of indescribable pampering: "Not to mention whether those envoys will eat up your majesty, just because your majesty has not seen anyone, I am afraid that he will lose his temper for a while."

Tsing Yi: "Oh..."

Why does this sound so strange?

Although His Majesty is young, he is quite stable and sensible. He has been having a temper for a while... No way?

"Master, the soup is ready, let's eat."

Lan Yi lifted the lid of the pot to greet Xiao Yu, who stood up from the ground, patted the dirt on his body, and went to the river to wash his hands.

The guards in Xuanyi packed up and sat together to eat dry food. Xiao Yu ate two mouthfuls of hot meat pies and said to them, "Brothers have worked hard. When I return to the capital, I will be the master. Let the cook of Yunlai Pavilion give the brothers Let's cook some food and drink, and let everyone relax."

The Xuanyi guards became excited and said loudly: "Thank you, master!"

Xiao Yu nodded, ate the wild vegetable soup in one mouthful after eating the cake, looked at the stars for a while, and got in the car to rest when he felt sleepy.

……

When she woke up, the carriage was already on the road, swaying, she slowly opened her eyes, and after yawning, her tears were hazy, and it took a while to hold back the tears.

She opened the curtain of the car and took a look: "Is this going to Mucheng soon?"

The sky is still glowing with a light purple, and the sun has not fully risen.

Lan Yi came in from outside the carriage and smiled brightly at Xiao Yu: "Master is awake, we will be entering the city soon, and the girls we rescued before are still waiting in the city."

"Well, that's right, hire a few big carriages to take them away together."

"Yes, Lan Yi has already told them."

"Okay." Xiao Yu yawned uncontrollably again, Tsing Yi looked at her moist eyes, and couldn't help laughing: "Give—Master something to pad your belly."

He handed over the water bag and dry food, and Xiao Yu felt a little numb at a glance. She felt that eating was no longer a kind of enjoyment, but an obligation to maintain life.

She has been eating these dry and tasteless things for many days, and now she feels a little nauseous when she sees them. She sighed and picked up a piece of jerky and chewed it expressionlessly, and suddenly said with emotion: "The soldiers at the border are real. not easy."

Tsing Yi blinked blankly, wondering why Xiao Yu suddenly mentioned this, and then seeing her staring at the jerky bitterly, said with a smile: "Master, have you eaten enough of these things? To be honest, the subordinates actually Enough to eat, before this, the subordinates have not had the experience of traveling on the road for such a long time."

"We've only tasted it for a few days. How did those soldiers who marched and fought and often couldn't eat a hot meal get through it?"

Xiao Yu didn't know whether he was asking Tsing Yi or himself.

Tsing Yi touched her chin, "Well, it's really not easy."

Xiao Yu didn't intend to have a discussion with Tsing Yi on this issue. She felt full after eating two pieces of jerky and drinking some water. When the carriage slowed down, she lifted the curtain and saw that she had already entered the city. up.

The carriage stopped at the entrance of the inn, and Lan Yi went in and called the girls out, and asked someone to prepare the carriage, bought a lot of dry food and fruits, and set out on the road when they were ready.

Before getting into the carriage, the girls all looked at the carriage in front of them curiously. They only knew that the benefactor's master was sitting in it, but they didn't know whether it was a man or a woman or what it looked like. They didn't even know the identity of the carriage.

It's a big gamble to follow others like this.

Xiao Yu has no intention of getting off the carriage, and will meet sooner or later during the break.

So the group went on the road again without even saying hello to the magistrate. Anyway, if they come again, everyone in the yamen should be changed.

……

Jun Rong was looking forward to the stars and the moon in the palace. Although he received a message in the middle, he simply said that everything was fine, and he didn't say when he would arrive. He still couldn't let it go.

However, Xiao Yu didn't come back, but the envoys from Fengguo and Yunguo arrived first. They were so vast that there was no end in sight. According to what Xiao Yu said before, Jun Rong didn't let everyone enter the city, only the envoys were allowed to enter. Guards of honor and the like are left outside the city.

Then the prime minister and the Minister of Rites were sent to meet him, and he was fidgeting in the Mingguang Palace.

He is about to face the people of the other two countries alone. It would be false to say that he is not nervous, but he is too nervous!

Fengguo is okay, at least there is a proton here, so he won't be too arrogant, and Yunguo... has always been at odds with Dagan, ambitious, and always ready to move. Everyone in the royal family is not a fuel-efficient lamp. If you die, the princes below are already in full swing.
