King Huaisi and the others set up camp in the open area here.

After waiting for nearly three days, they finally saw a group of people dressed in Western Regions appear in front of them.

The leader of the team had an angry look on his face, and said to King Huaisi impatiently: "This prince of Han. We have been waiting for you here for more than half a month.

Do you know that this is a matter of life and death for us?

Calculated, it will really snow in a few days and the mountains will be closed.

How do we get back to the tribe? If anything happens to our prince, we will not give up easily. "

King Huai Si looked calm, but the hands behind his back tightly grasped the wrist of the other hand. He twisted his fingers slightly with his other finger. But his expression was still full of happiness, and he said to this man from the Western Region: "This strong man said something serious.

We encountered some accidents on the way here, so we delayed our trip. Please forgive me. After opening the tomb and getting the treasure, I will compensate you accordingly. "

The man from the Western Region remembered what his prince said, sneered, and stopped talking. King Huaisi finally couldn't help but frowned and said to the man: "Soldier, your prince asked you to come here to lead the way, right? Have you already explored the tomb?"

“We don’t know whether there are tombs or not, but we found a strange place. If you are interested, you can come with us to see it.

Maybe it’s the tomb you’re talking about. "This time, the man from the Western Region did not mock or humiliate King Huaisi again. Instead, he answered King Huaisi's questions honestly.

King Huaisi's eyes lit up, and he no longer cared about the humiliation of this Western Region man, and said happily: "Then please lead the way quickly, let's move forward quickly."

The man from the Western Region looked at the horses and vehicles in the camp, shook his head, smacked his lips and said, "It is estimated that your carriages can only go halfway. People need to climb up the rest of the way, and the carriages have to be left behind." .”

King Huaisi waved his hand indifferently and said with a smile: "It doesn't matter. It doesn't matter where we go. Let's rush there as quickly as possible."

The man nodded and said nothing more. He led his team and walked back the way they had come.

The group of people walked for about more than a day. Finally coming to a cliff, the man raised his head and said, "Let's camp here tonight. We can reach the place in about half a day to a day. That strange place is on this cliff." above."

King Huaisi nodded happily. Sure enough, these barbarians from the Western Regions have figured out this mountain. Let them lead the way, it will be much faster indeed.

But if Leng Yuanting's people had been allowed to lead the way, they might have descended into the tomb by now. The time these days has been wasted again.

I don’t know if the people in the fiefdom can bear it. After being in the mountains for so many days, I lost contact with the outside world. At this moment, King Huaisi felt a little regretful.

So far, no one from Leng Yuanting has sent anyone to contact him. This shows that Leng Yuanting really doesn't care about Su Wanqiu's life or death. I'm afraid that Shao Zhikan's order was also perfunctory.

But it's a bit strange that he didn't even ask about Shao Zhiqi's affairs. Is it because Leng Yuanting didn't receive any news from Shao Zhikan, or is it because Shao Zhikan didn't know about Shao Zhiqi's escape?

So after everyone was settled, King Huaisi called Su Wanqiu out alone.

Looking at Su Wanqiu who looked calm and calm, King Huaisi smiled slightly and said, "You are indeed a special girl.

If a girl of your age had been taken away by a stranger after being out for ten days and a half, she would have been in a state of crying. You may even seek death and survival, but you are very calm. "

Su Wanqiu also smiled and said: "After all, I am just a weak woman. It is not easy to escape from your hands. Why should I torment myself here and waste my energy. Besides, you haven't been too harsh on me. Harsh, I eat and drink well, but I’m a little tired from riding in the car, so why bother myself? This is called a wise man who knows the current affairs."

King Huaisi nodded and stopped talking in circles, and went straight to the point and asked: "Do you think Shao Zhihan knows that Shao Zhiqi is in my hands now?"

Su Wanqiu nodded honestly and said: "With his information network ability, I'm afraid Shao Zhikan should have known about it on the day Shao Zhiqi left Beijing."

"In that case, why did Leng Yuanting not mention Shao Zhiqi at all?"

"Why did Leng Yuanting ask Shao Zhiqi? After all, Shao Zhiqi has nothing to do with him."

"But he is Shao Zhikan's biological brother after all."

Su Wanqiu looked at King Huaisi in surprise and said, "Don't you know, Your Majesty? The Protector's wife and the Protector's Mansion have broken up. Now I'm afraid even Shao Zhiqi has been abandoned by Protector's Kung Fu.

Moreover, Shao Zhikan and the emperor had a tacit agreement that the Red Shadow Guards would not care about the Duke's Palace. Something to do with the royal family. "

King Huaisi also showed a surprised expression and said incredulously: "What did you say? When did this happen? No wonder, no wonder Leng Yuanting ignored that kid."

"It was not long before you forced the palace, probably a few days later. Shao Zhikan was injured at that time, and the Protector's wife wanted to take the opportunity to poison Shao Zhihan to death.

However, Master Liwu, who was invited by the Protector, discovered something unusual.

Afterwards, the Lord Protector put the Lord Protector's wife under house arrest. Therefore, not only the matter of poisoning Shao Zhikan was found out. The truth behind the death of the eldest princess was also investigated.

It's hard to say whether the Protector's wife is dead or alive. You said that before I kidnapped her, the emperor had just issued an order to personally punish the protector's wife. "

When Su Wanqiu talked about what happened before, King Huaisi's expression was somewhat normal.

But when he heard that the investigation revealed the truth behind the death of the eldest princess, King Huaisi's expression felt unnatural for a moment. But he took control immediately.

But this moment was still captured by Su Wanqiu, who had been paying attention to the changes in his expression.

Su Wanqiu was secretly worried. Could it be that the death of the eldest princess was related to King Huai Si? Considering King Huaisi's age, it's really hard to say. However, she boldly guessed that it was more related to Concubine He.

It seemed that she had to find a way to help Shao Zhikan figure this out before escaping.

So just when she was about to take the opportunity to mention a few more things about the Protector's wife and the eldest princess, King Huaisi had already adjusted his mood instantly and said with an incredible look: "There is such a thing.

No wonder Shao Zhikan didn't let Leng Yuanting ask about Shao Zhiqi's matter. This is understandable.

As for the tacit agreement between him and his father, that's all on the surface. I don't believe they weren't secretly watching each other.

After all, the father is a person who doesn't even trust his own son. Just like you said, Leng Yuanting and Shao Zhihan were just used by their father to check and balance each other. "
