Zhurou

Chapter 134
That night, Zhao Mingzhi scrubbed with medicinal juice, soaked it with gauze and applied it on the black wart while sleeping, and when he woke up the next day, he half got up and felt that if there was something strange on his face, it was the gauze slipping from his face .

When she used her hands to do the massage, and looked down, the uneven scar had become sticky, sticking to the gauze, it was black, and it smelled bitter, which was really scary.

Seeing this, Zhao Mingzhi got up from the quilt, kicked off his shoes and got out of bed, turned his head and saw the clean water from last night standing in the corner, so he went to the edge of the wooden frame to scoop up water and wash his face.

Mu Xiang was sleeping on the couch outside, heard the commotion inside, hurried in immediately, saw Zhao Mingzhi standing in the corner, followed him a few steps, and asked, "What's the matter, Your Highness?"

As he said that, he took the cloth towel that was hanging on the side, and when the pot was wet, he handed it forward with one hand.

Zhao Mingzhi washed off the dirt on his face, and felt his cheeks were smooth to the touch. Although there was still a slight tingling sensation, the black warts stuck to the skin for a long time, and some redness and swelling are normal. He felt relieved, so he stood up straight and said: " Nothing serious, just something fell off my face."

As he spoke, he went to pick up the cloth towel in Mu Xiang's hand.

For some reason, she pulled one corner of the cloth towel, but did not pull it. Then she turned her head and saw the person beside her staring blankly at her face, with her right hand pinching the other corner of the cloth towel tightly. Won't let go.

After being pulled twice in a row, Mu Xiang let go of her hand as if waking up from a dream.

It was early morning at this time, and the doors and windows in the wing room were tightly closed, so there was little light through. She came back to her senses and hurriedly went forward to change the water with a basin, but she couldn't help looking at Zhao Mingzhi's face from the corner of her eye.

The scars on that face have faded away, and there is no trace of blemish. Although the complexion is yellowish brown, the light is dark, and it is not obvious. Because of this, the hair is all loose on the back, the black hair is like ink, and the eyes are like water.

This appearance was originally very beautiful, but it was not made of makeup, and it also contained the inner culture, it was like a quiet orchid, especially when she turned her head, half of her black hair fell from her shoulders, like flowing silk in a dark room, and The colorful and flourishing facial features are really vivid.

Mu Xiang suddenly recalled the scene of the night before.

I can't blame that surnamed Lu who keeps saying that he is afraid of the princess "giving up on himself", and that the princess is beautiful, which is known all over the world, so he thinks that the second master must have some intentions.

Although she still didn't agree with that statement at this time, she understood it a little bit.

Not long after today's son ascended the throne, Jingzhao Mansion lived in a corner again. There are actually different opinions about the new eldest sister of the emperor. Know what it looks like.

She originally thought it was bragging, somewhat exaggerated, but seeing such a face today, she didn't know what disguises she had made, even if her complexion was ugly, just relying on facial features and temperament, it was already unsettling.

Thinking about it again, when I was ugly in the past, I was able to make people feel good, and I was willing to do things for her and care for her even if I was an unknown person. From now on, I have such a face and such a temperament, and I call it "self-denial". It also became more appropriate.

Zhao Mingzhi didn't know what the people behind him thought.

After washing up and eating breakfast, she didn't want to sit any longer, and took a cloak and a hat to cover herself tightly, and then went to the official road two times under the escort of a group of bodyguards and a few guards left by Lu Xianzhang. From the side of the carriage, I looked out and stayed for a whole day to observe the situation of pedestrians from north to south.

Not only that day, but also the next morning. As for the third day, he still went to guard the official road every day.

Mu Xiang followed this road, seeing the refugees going all the way to the south, the situation along the way was unbearable, so she couldn't help persuading: "I don't know what Your Highness wants to know, why don't you explain it and send someone else to see it, it's better to live like this every day Run around by yourself..."

Zhao Mingzhi shook his head and said, "I can't sit still in the station, so it's better to come here and see clearly."

He said again: "Look at these two days, have you noticed any difference?"

Mu Xiang said: "It's all refugees fleeing, just like when I saw myself fleeing for my life in the past. Although I tried my best, I just couldn't do anything..."

As she spoke, her voice gradually became hoarse, her right hand was tightly grasping the wooden frame of the car window beside her, and her knuckles were reddened by the cold wind outside without realizing it.

But Zhao Mingzhi said: "I don't know if it's a coincidence or there are other reasons. I counted it myself, and I sent someone to make counts in other places. The number of refugees going south on the road yesterday was one-tenth less than the day before yesterday. Two, compared to yesterday, there are a lot fewer people today. In addition, there were only people going from north to south, except for officers and soldiers and a few merchants. Turning back..."

After she finished speaking, she stretched out her finger and pointed to the distance. Sure enough, there were seven or eight people walking towards here on the side of the road. Although the pace was not fast, it was clear that the direction was north.

As soon as Zhao Mingzhi said, Mu Xiang also got some clues, looked carefully for a quarter of an hour, and then questioned: "It seems that the refugees are walking slower than before, I don't know if it is or not..."

Although they are fleeing, there is no pursuer at the moment, everyone is just doing it to save their lives, whether they walk fast or slow, generally there is no fixed number, only these two days, especially the refugees going south today, no matter what The team, which group, even with the naked eye, can tell that the speed is slower than before.

The two were still talking, when they heard the sound of horseshoes coming from the path behind them, they looked back through the window, and a guard who was guarding the post station rushed over, pulled the reins and was about to dismount.

Zhao Mingzhi immediately opened the back of the car, motioned for the man not to salute, and asked, "What's the matter?"

The imperial guard said: "Later Lu Canzheng sent a letter, saying that the guard of honor would arrive today, but on the way, I met a general who wanted to come to say hello to His Highness, so I asked the next official to pass it on and ask His Highness to show you."

As he spoke, he took out a personal letter from his bosom.

Mu Xiang leaned forward to take it, and passed it to Zhao Mingzhi.

Zhao Mingzhi was a little confused, opened the letter and folded it to find out what happened.

It turns out that there may be many discrepancies in the present and previous lives, but Qian Weiwu didn't make much changes.

This person abandoned the city and fled, plundering and plundering along the way, but he died on the way just like before.

Once Qian Weiwu dies, none of his soldiers will be able to command the troops. The soldiers will be divided into many factions, or they will disperse on the spot, or they will go separately in groups.

When Lu Xianzhang saw Zhao Mingzhi, he hurriedly turned around to urge the princess to honor the honor guard, not wanting to meet some of the generals on the way.

The rest of the people didn't come to the stage, there were only a hundred or so soldiers, Lu Xianzhang didn't want to make trouble, so he went with him, but he didn't dare to ignore this person when he finally met.

The partial general's surname was Song, and his name was Song Jingren. He was one of the two generals that Pei Yong said that day that he could divide the money and have the military power.

Lu Xianzhang deliberately persuaded Song Jingren to stop the army where he was, and told him to obey Caizhou's assignment, but the other party listened to what he said, although he hesitated, he did not let go. He actually personally leads the troops to protect each other, and finally agrees to come to inquire on his own.
