Chapter 191

It must be known that they wanted to escape from his grasp and headed west all the way, and they were now close to the territory controlled by the Chu army.

This small village is located in a remote place, not an important town in the state capital, so there is no fighting for the time being, but several nearby towns have been occupied by the Chu army under King Xin.

Seeing that she didn't believe it, the dark guard hurriedly replied: "The emperor heard that Concubine Shu is pregnant, and he has already rushed over to welcome Concubine Shu back to the palace. It's just that there are too many political affairs and there is always no time, so I just ask you to guard carefully. The concubine is young, and is easily bewitched by those with ulterior motives. Most of them are unwilling to return to the palace. Therefore, after the important matters at hand are arranged, she will definitely come to greet her in person. The villain got the news. The emperor used the excuse of discussing important matters with Cheng Anhou. In Beijing, he already arrived at the Marquis of Cheng'an camp in the morning, if he left the camp in the evening and rushed all the way here, he would arrive by dawn at the latest!"

The people with ulterior motives are Heng Yi and Zhuo Rui.

Zhuo Rui was always loyal to him, and even secretly reported Ke Qianmei's situation, but a steel knife hung above their own heads.

After being apart for such a long time, maybe he didn't care much about Ke Qianmei's whereabouts, but their common child obviously rekindled some desire in him.

After all, Heng Yi died, Zhuo Rui died, and even she probably couldn't escape.

This hidden guard speaks clearly and clearly, obviously his position in the hidden guard is not low, and he is also extremely skilled.

Did she really want to see him?

In my memory, the air-dried head of my father hanging high, the cold blade of my mother piercing my stomach with a sword, the despairing and puzzled eyes of my sister after all the devastation, the blood and fire that overturned Jinzhou City like lava...

There is also Heng Yi who is dying in front of his eyes, and Zhuo Rui who is cold and stiff under his feet now...

After so much blood and life, she still wants to be with him, sinking into his gentle and beautiful smile day after day, fantasizing about the happy life he outlined for her, and then giving birth to their common flesh and blood?

She suddenly jumped up as if she saw a ghost, and hurried back to the house, but after a while, she ran out again, already with a burden in her hand.

While the dark guard was stunned, she had already run to Zhuo Rui's body, knelt down and kowtowed three times, and said, "Brother Zhuo, I can't accompany you anymore! The heroic spirit is not far away, please protect me to escape far away! "

After finishing speaking, she grabbed the burden and ran out quickly.

The secret guard hurriedly stopped him: "Concubine Shu, you can't leave! The emperor will be here soon, you... how can you let him down?"

But Qian Mei threw her bag at him and screamed, "Get out of the way, I don't want to see him!"

The hidden guard didn't dodge either, and let her hit her, but stood firmly in front of her and said, "Concubine Shu, please don't make things difficult for the villain!"

When he said this, there was a sudden movement on the edge of the grass, the corner of the wall, and the eaves, which were as silent as death.

The same inconspicuous dress appeared silently, blocking all her ways silently.

Unexpectedly, there were countless hidden guards watching her, and it was obvious that they wanted her to escape.

But Qianmei was a little desperate, and the air balls in her voice surged up one after another.

Seeing the intertwined figures, she dropped the burden at her feet, raised her sword and chopped it.

She was born in a wealthy family, and she was never in danger of starvation. Even if Jinzhou was besieged for eight months, her parents and uncles would save her a portion of rations and refused to let her go hungry.

But she left the palace empty-handed. Seeing Zhuo Rui's hard work in hunting and chopping firewood to keep herself warm, she also knew that without the protection of her family and relatives, a little woman like her who does not have anything to do with farming and does not know women can't even survive. It was easy, so when I thought of leaving, I first went to get the burden out.

In fact, there were only two coarse cotton-padded jackets and a few pieces of dry food in the package, but at this time she randomly opened it up, rummaged through it for a while, and found a moon-white purse.

Under the pale moonlight, her hands trembled a little, and the lovebirds embroidered on her purse trembled as if in the cold wind.

She said: "You don't have to stop me. If the emperor comes and asks about me, you can just give him this, and he will naturally understand."

The dark guard was stunned, and when she was about to pick it up, Qian Mei became excited again, threw her purse on the ground, stomped on it a few times, and then stabbed with the tip of her sword, but she didn't hit it several times in a row. Tears rolled down his eyes in a daze.

When the dark guard was hesitating whether to pick up the purse, Qian Mei pierced him with a sword, but forced him away, quickly dodged past him, and ran forward.

But there were so many hidden guards watching her, her skill was far less agile than before, and she was not using the long whip that she was good at, so she couldn't walk two steps before someone intercepted her.

Because they had to prepare to deal with a master like Zhuo Rui, these hidden guards were specially selected and had extraordinary skills. Although they dared not fight back for fear of accidentally hurting her, it was not difficult for several of them to work together to trap her firmly when they were dealing with it.

But Qianmei was already a little bit feverish, and after experiencing so many pains in a short period of time, she became more and more unable to support her. She only relied on the stubbornness she had raised since she was a child to hold on. Unable to get out, I feel even more desperate.After a short period of relief, the pain in the lower abdomen began to intensify with the fierce fighting.

The pain gradually became so severe that she couldn't grasp the long sword.

The dark guards realized something was wrong, greeted each other, and retreated one after another, giving up more than ten feet of space.

But Qian Mei still wanted to break out of the encirclement, when she moved her feet, a stream of heat suddenly gushed out from under her body, the long sword fell to the ground with a bang, and she fell straight down.

"Concubine Shu!"

The hidden guards screamed and were about to step forward to check, but heard the sound of sharp arrows piercing the air, and when they hurriedly responded, they saw a group of dozens of galloping horses galloping towards them. Behind a row of sharp arrows, people were already approaching. , Flying guns attacked the hidden guards who surrounded Ke Qianmei.

But Qian Mei was sweating profusely as she held her stomach in pain, the already gloomy scene in front of her eyes became even more blurred, and the close and distant fights in her ears sounded like hallucinations.

"Qianmei! Qianmei! How are you, Qianmei?"

Someone helped her up, and the plain white figure looked familiar.

Panting for breath, she tried to concentrate, and finally saw the man's face clearly.

"Brother Zhuang..."

She seemed to call out, but she didn't even hear the voice clearly.

Then, the surroundings suddenly became dark, and the moonless snowy desert was as cold as death...

---------------------------------------------

Just as the first ray of dawn broke through in the east, Tang Tianxiao had already arrived at the small mountain village.

The dark guard hula la knelt down and pleaded guilty to him.

In the middle of the night, Zhuang Bilan suddenly rushed over with a group of cavalry, and snatched Ke Qianmei, who was already powerless to fight, without saying a word.

Tang Tianxiao lost a lot of weight, and described it as haggard.He stood in front of the dilapidated house where Ke Qianmei lived for a long time before he said, "Zhuang Bilan led troops to station in Taiping Town, which is less than [-] miles away from here, right? Send an order to mobilize troops and take down Taiping Town first!"

The attendant takes the order, even if he goes to deliver the decree.

Seeing that Tang Tianxiao didn't blame him, the hidden guards breathed a sigh of relief and dispersed, leaving only the highest-ranking hidden guard to serve him.

Zhuo Rui's body hadn't been dealt with yet. At this time, someone came over and was about to carry him away. Tang Tianxiao approached him, looked at him silently for a moment, and asked the hidden guard beside him, "Did he resist?"

"No."

"Did he ever say anything?"

"He said that no one wants to let go, but in the end, everyone has to let go."

"I don't want to let go, I have to let go..."

Tang Tianxiao's lips were pale, and his phoenix eyes were as dark as the night, but he looked at the gradually brightening light in the east, and said, "Do I really have to let go?"

The dark guard dared not answer.

After a long time, Tang Tianxiao asked again: "Has he really done something beyond the rules to Concubine Shu?"

The dark guard hesitated for a moment, then replied in a low voice: "Concubine Shu seems to be feeling unwell. He stepped forward to share the quilt with Concubine Shu, behaved indecently, and once said that the two of them would live in seclusion together. Food and laundry..."

"One chops firewood and hunts, the other cooks and does laundry..."

Tang Tianxiao's laughter trembled, "Could it be that as long as she leaves me, everyone will be happy?"

"That's not true. Concubine Shu said later..."

"say what?"

"It seems to be crying and saying... The emperor took her heart away, and she will never get it back..."

"Qian... Qianmei..."

Tang Tianxiao couldn't stand still, his slender body wrapped in a dark black war robe staggered a few steps forward, his eyelashes were already wet.

"emperor……"

The hidden guard wanted to step forward to support him, but Tang Tianxiao waved his hands, straightened his shoulders, walked out of the farmer's house step by step, and walked towards the road in front of the small village.

A follower led a horse and was waiting by the road.

This place is poor and remote, there is not even a clean place to sit, so I can't stay for a long time.What's more, judging from Tang Tianxiao's intentions, he would probably personally go to surround Taiping Town and take back Concubine Ke Shu, who is pregnant with a dragon heir.

Tang Tianxiao was about to get on his horse, when his black eyes swept back and touched something familiar.

He suddenly held his breath and walked over quickly.

That's right, it's a cute purse.

The moon-white brocade, exquisitely embroidered, has been trampled to such an extent that the pattern is almost invisible.

Next to the purse, there were still scattered cold steamed buns and two cotton jackets, which were also trampled on.

He clenched his purse tightly, then looked at the padded jacket with extremely rough fabric and workmanship, and asked, "She left it all? Is she wearing... such clothes?"

"Yes, these belong to Concubine Shu. She is wearing a Taoist robe, which is also... very simple."

The dark guard hesitated, and finally said, "Concubine Shu wanted to leave with all her heart. When we stopped, Concubine Shu wanted to let me hand over this purse to the emperor, but somehow she threw it away by herself, crying very hard, and then... The sword stabbed over... desperately rushed out..."

He paused, not daring to speak any more.

Tang Tianxiao didn't pay attention to his expression, but concentrated on looking at the two padded jackets carefully, touched the jagged stitches and said: "It's the first time I know she can sew clothes. This one belongs to her, and this one is Zhuo Rui's." Yes, she sewed them all by herself! She has been with me for so long, and she has never sewed even a veil for me!"

He threw it away angrily, but said: "Wrap it up and take it away!"

The entourage agreed, hurriedly picked up the fur skin, and packed away the two dirty cotton-padded jackets; while Tang Tianxiao squatted on the road, carefully dusting off the purse, it took a long time for it to be a little clean, and then put it in his arms.

When he was about to stand up, he saw a piece of soil with a strange color beside him, and suddenly felt palpitations and fear for no reason.

He licked it with his fingers, and when he smelled it in his nose, the faint smell of blood made the hairs on his body stand up instantly.

is blood!

That shape doesn't look like the blood dripping after being injured, but the blood that slowly oozes through something!

Zhuang Bilan led the cavalry, they came and went quickly, as if they came just to take Ke Qianmei away; the dark guards were caught off guard, and the disadvantage was that they couldn't mobilize their horses in time, so they couldn't track them down, and there was no one during the battle There were too many casualties, and there were only a few dark brown bloodstains on the road, which were obviously different from the bloodstains here.

He suddenly raised his head and asked sharply, "Did you fight her here?"

The secret guard was startled, and hurriedly said: "Concubine Shu wanted to leave all her heart, so I had no choice but to stop her and fought for a while..."

"Who hurt her?

The secret guard hurriedly said: "I didn't dare to hurt Concubine Shu...but Concubine Shu seemed to be a little unwell, and then... Zhuang Bilan arrived, we just stopped him...we didn't have time to check Concubine Shu's movements. The cavalry he brought There are many, and they are all masters, I can't stop them, I can only watch him take people away!"

He never dared to say that Ke Qianmei gave up her sword because she was completely unable to hold on after fighting.

It was Zhuang Bilan who took her away. If there was something, everything could have been blamed on Zhuang Bilan.

But Tang Tianxiao had sensed that something was wrong, and asked closely: "Can you tell that she is not feeling well? When Zhuang Bilan took her away, was she already powerless to resist? How could she...why be bleeding?"
