Chapter 228
So, the few of them stopped, found a relatively flat place, and sat on the ground.

As soon as she sat down, Yun Xi immediately yelled: "Su Ruoqi, where's the dry food we brought? Take it out quickly, I'm so hungry!"

Su Ruoqi smiled helplessly, took out the dry food, and divided the four among them. Yunxi gnawed on the big cake while holding the big cake. Seeing her eating like this, Su Ruoqi seemed to understand why Yunxi was in the tunnel just now. made fun of him.

After the four of them ate and drank enough, Su Ruoqi hugged Yunxi, Li Ran hugged Li Lin, and lay down to rest on the spot.

Su Ruoqi embraced Yunxi, looking at the sleeping person in his arms, he didn't feel sleepy at all.Thinking about all the things he made difficult for Yunxi in the past, now he is full of regret, such a good person, how could he have the heart to make things difficult for her back then?
After thinking about it, Yun Xi would have to endure a lot of hardships following her, maybe even his life would be in danger. If he could escape by luck this time, what would be waiting for them in the future in the frontier?

Now, he doesn't have a single soldier in his hands, and the entire Xia Kingdom belongs to the queen, how can he compete with his mother?How easy is it to overthrow her and regain the throne?
"Alas!" After thinking about it, Su Ruoqi unconsciously let out a deep sigh.But after thinking about it, I am not alone now, I have nothing!The person in his arms is his everything.Yun Xi, whom he loves the most, as long as she is always by his side, no matter how far and dangerous the road ahead is, he can go on without fear!

With her here, he already has the whole world.

Thinking of this, his eyes became firmer, and his hands holding Yunxi tightened unconsciously.

Actually, Yun Xi didn't fall asleep all this time, she just closed her eyes tightly, not wanting Su Ruoqi to feel her fear and uneasiness, she just didn't want Su Ruoqi to be more troubled.

Her heart was in turmoil like a bundle of hemp, yes, she was worried about Su Ruoqi, a worry she had never had before.She was afraid that pursuers would catch up, she was afraid that Su Ruoqi would be injured physically, and he was also afraid that his heart would be injured.

Being hunted down by his beloved biological mother, Su Ruoqi must be very lonely and sad now.The matter has reached the point where it is already irreparable, and the pain he endured in his heart should be no one can empathize with.

"Su Ruoqi, I will be by your side every day in the future, and accompany you to taste the ups and downs of life. You live, I live, and if you die, I will never live alone."

Thinking of this, Yun Xi gently stretched out her hands, wrapping them around Su Ruoqi's warm neck, and not long after, the two of them fell into a deep sleep together.

In the palace, the general who had just chased and killed Yun Xi and the others knelt down tremblingly and said to the Queen, "Your Majesty, I deserve death for my crimes! I have failed to complete the mission entrusted by Your Majesty, and I cannot escape the blame for my death. Please punish me, Your Majesty!"

After hearing what the general said, the empress had anticipated the development of the situation, and said through gritted teeth, "What happened? Tell me now!"

The general immediately kowtowed to confess his guilt, knelt on the ground, and said to the queen in a trembling voice: "Your Majesty, it is my responsibility. When I led my subordinates to their house, it was dark inside. We led our troops into the house. Everyone, big and small, I searched all over the corner, but... I didn't see Huang..."

When the empress heard the word "emperor", she immediately looked at the general keenly, and the look of unhappiness on her face intensified.

The general immediately realized that he had said something wrong, and immediately changed his words: "Oh, no, no, it's Su Ruoqi, I didn't notice Su Ruoqi and Yun Xi, they, they, might have fled ahead of time. "

"Fleeing?" The empress squinted, her eyes radiating an infinitely cold light.

"It's... Your Majesty. The minister... deserves death." The general hurriedly kowtowed and begged for mercy.

"Trash! They're all a bunch of trash!" The empress's whole body trembled, and finally she couldn't contain her anger, and roared uncontrollably.At this moment, her face was ashen, and there were balls of flames in her eyes, which were about to spew out, as if she wanted to destroy everything in the world.

Immediately, the court lady and eunuch knelt on the ground, and would only join the general, knelt on the ground and shouted loudly, "Your Majesty, calm down, Your Majesty, calm down!"

The queen yelled at the general: "Get out of here, and you," she pointed at a group of court ladies and eunuchs: "Get out of here, all of you! Get out of here, or I will destroy your nine clans."

The poor general and the maids and eunuchs in the room scrambled out of the palace, fearing that if he stayed for a second longer, he would lose his head.

After everyone retreated, at this moment, the empress felt mixed feelings and couldn't tell what she was feeling.

Even, she didn't know whether she should be happy or sad?Should I cry or should I laugh?The queen felt extremely contradictory.The corner of her mouth raised a slight arc, and she smiled helplessly and self-deprecatingly.

She had a splitting headache, sat limply on the dragon chair, closed her eyes slowly, and gently pinched her temples with her fingers.

The moment she heard that Su Ruoqi had escaped, she first felt a little lucky, glad that his son was not dead and was still living in this world, she and her relatives.

However, this little bit of emotion was immediately defeated by her reason, how could he still be alive?How can he still be alive?If he escapes, there is no guarantee that one day he will not make a comeback, after all, he is a legitimate emperor.

If one day, he summons troops back to rebel, what about her throne?
"No!" The queen stood up from the dragon chair and said to herself.For the sake of the throne and power, she has long become insensitive and inhumane.Those who achieve great things must not stick to small details.

At the last moment, at such a critical time, I must not be kind to a woman anymore, and I must not be soft-hearted anymore.Her hands have already been stained with blood, and this life cannot be redeemed, since it cannot be redeemed, then let's move forward without hesitation.

What about your own flesh and blood?Many years ago, she also killed her husband, so why not have another son now?

The Queen's eyes became darker and darker, and her facial features were twisted together, looking very scary.

After making up her mind, she immediately shouted: "Come on!"

So, the little eunuch guarding the palace gate immediately opened the door and entered the palace, knelt on the ground and waited for the queen's orders.

"You, immediately send someone to pass on my oral order and tell General Chen that I will now give him a chance to redeem his crimes! Let him continue to complete his unfinished business and find the person I want, no matter what price he pays , we must find them, and then..."

The queen paused, slowly closed her eyes, and said four words: "Shoot or kill!" There seemed to be a hint of helplessness in her tone.

The little eunuch kneeling under the Highness immediately said: "Yes, the slave will pass the decree immediately."

"Tell General Chen, now, let me set out to search outside the city." The queen added.
