Chapter 96 Dream Broken Wild Shedhouse

"You mean, that young descendant is Ning Tanger. Is there anything strange about her leaving the Wei Palace?" Zhuo Ruitong narrowed his eyes, and his eyes became cold and unusual.

"Ning Tanger only traveled. If she is ready to travel far away, she will naturally choose to dress up as a man and change her career to make it easier to walk. Doesn't Mrs. Ying often like Yicheng man from time to time? As for the little girl, I can't guess who it will be, but the missing person in the Wei Palace, except for Ning Tanger, there is only fear," Nie Kong said slowly. "The girl Wei'er came to Wei County from the capital with the Lord. The Lord should know her better than his subordinates, right?"

"No, it's not right!" Zhuo Ruitong shook his head and said, "Before Wei'er came to Weijun, she was not from my palace. At that time, including Wei'er, the former emperor sent a total of ten palace people to serve her mother's concubine. After coming to Wei'er, Wei'er had also been by her mother's side. It was not until Ning Tang'er came that I took Wei'er and Crisp'er from her mother's side to serve. Could it be Wei'er? Is there really a problem?"

"I can't say it well either!" Nie Kong thought for a moment and said, "There are many doubts in this. Ning Tanger feels that the Wei Palace can't stay and chooses to leave secretly. No matter how good she has a good relationship with Wei'er and other maidservants, she is afraid that she dares to take away the people of Wei Wang's Palace blatantly, unless she wants to go with her, but Ning Tang'er doesn't say, How does Wei Er know when she will leave? Even if you know that, Wei'er should also follow Ning Tanger. Why did he hire a carriage outside Aojun City to wait for Ning Tang'er? And these two people went on their way. Why did they go to the palace? There was only one Ning Tanger. Where did they go?

"Yes, I was also puzzled at first, thinking that Wei'er ran away with Ning Tang'er, or Ning Tang'er didn't need to be afraid halfway and let her go back to her hometown? But after what you said, it seems that Wei'er took the initiative to follow Ning Tanger. How could she change her mind halfway? What's more, Ning Tanger's martial arts skills are not low. How could she be dragged into the carriage by a little girl?

Nie Kong nodded, "So the Ning Tanger in the palace can't move any more. I'm worried that there are other people playing tricks with us!"

"I already know!" Zhuo Ruitong said the same way, "I have ordered Zhou Yanting to send a letter as soon as possible, so that all the eyeliners in the capital will enter a dormant state."

Nie Kong smiled and said, "Then let's discuss the route of sending troops now. As for whether the Lord's brother can get out of trouble, it depends on his creation."

The night was frosty, about ten miles away from the blue jade grave. In a narrow cave on the mountain wall, Zhuo Yuancan probed his head at the mouth of the cave. The cold wind made him cold and his face was pale. His lips were also cracked because of dryness and lack of water. The hole was also formed by perennial wind erosion, so there was no grass in the cave. The four walls are bare.

At this moment, hunger, coldness and thirst have invaded Zhuo Yuancan. He looked at the dark distance outside the cave and a few scattered stars in the sky. He couldn't figure out why his brother Wang raided him and Qi Kang's carriage. Did his third brother become another person after only a few years?

Qi Kang, who was sleeping, hugged his arms tightly and sneezed twice in the cold wind rushing into the cave. He woke up. Zhuo Yuancan saw this and said quickly, "Sir, it's very cold, isn't it? Let's bear with it. It's better if we go to find a village and ask for something to eat tomorrow morning."

Qi Kang blew his nose and thought that he was old, and a handful of old bones could not stand several toss. He hoped that Zhuo Yuancan said, "Your Majesty, why don't you sleep for a while? The wind at the entrance of the cave is too cold. You can't stand sitting there all the time. You'd better come in to refresh yourself. Although it's also blowing in, it's always better than the entrance of the cave."

"I can't sleep." Zhuo Yuancan turned around and continued to look at the night outside the cave and said, "We are suffering from the enemy. Old General Lan blocks the thief for us. I don't know what's going on. I'm afraid that once I fall asleep, I will never wake up again."

"Alas!" Qi Kang sighed, "I have few enemies. I'm afraid that General Lan is more or less lucky. Your Majesty, I advise you to think more about how to take care of yourself. What should we do in the future?"

Zhuo Yuancan didn't say anything for a long time. Qi Kang thought that Zhuo Yuancan couldn't make up his mind, so he continued to persuade him, "Why don't we find a more remote place to settle down first and wait to avoid this chaos? You don't have to worry about burning firewood. Your Majesty, you save your life first, so that you can plan for the future!"

"Do I have any other plans?" Zhuo Yuancan smiled bitterly. At this time, his body was cold, and maybe his heart was a hundred times colder than his body.

"Mr. Qi, I have thought about it!" Without waiting for Qi Kang to say anything else, Zhuo Yuancan continued, "When we find the village tomorrow and ask our location and direction, you can leave me and go back to your hometown to retire. Don't suffer with me. What they are looking for is just me. The old gentleman doesn't have to suffer with me at all!"

Qi Kang was stunned, "Your Majesty, what are you talking about? Is Qi Kang the kind of person who abandons his master and asks for his own thoroughness? From the moment I left the house, I didn't plan to go back. Don't worry, the emperor, even if I lose this old bone, I am willing."

"Don't call me emperor again!" Zhuo Yuancan sighed, "I'm not an emperor anymore. In fact, it's okay. In the past, in the palace, I always felt that I was too tired and aggrieved. Suddenly, I have nothing left. Isn't this just a lot of care? Why do I have to care about the emperor's business, thousands of miles of rivers and mountains? Everything has nothing to do with me anymore!"

Qi Kang looked at Zhuo Yuancan's back. No matter how talented he was, he was able to speak well. In the face of losing all the emperors in panic like a homeless dog, he really didn't know how to comfort the other party. Yuan Can is not bad. The blows and changes he has suffered may not be able to experience it. Up to now, Yuan Can's resilience and calmness are enough to make him proud of him.

Qi Kang propped up his body a little, and his whole body felt like a broken frame. His old cold legs for many years also showed signs of attack. His joints were stiff and the soreness in his bones made him extremely uncomfortable. He couldn't sleep. He couldn't sleep. The long night was long. Qi Kang thought about his former former officials and thought about who could be trusted. If it doesn't work, it's okay to let the emperor go and turn to it for the time being.

But Zhuo Yuancan is different from what he thought. If a person has no concern except himself, he will live no matter how he lives, or it can be said that there is not much difference between living and dying. The obsession that Zhuo Yuancan can't let go is why the third brother, like Lou Xun, must kill him?

If it is for the throne, he is not the emperor now. For the throne, the third brother can rise up early in the morning to fight against the court like Yuanle, which he can still understand, but the third brother did not. The third brother even sent a letter to the court, indicating that Wei Jun was not rebellious. Why did Wei Jun, who was not disgusted, suddenly turn his face after Lou Xun forced the palace?

Unless the third brother and Lou Xun had already... Thinking of this, Zhuo Yuancan couldn't help but be excited. It's too terrible. Is the world really like what the mother once said? No one in the world can be trusted. For the sake of power and money, anyone can be a friend, and anyone can be an enemy.

Now when I think about it, I suddenly feel that although my mother is ruthless and unscrupulous, she seems to be prespectful. In the face of the cruelty of the world, the mother is far more thorough than him. Under the illusion of all the warmth, she is full of people's desire to devour the sun.

Zhuo Yuancan and Qi Kang finally recovered and continued to drive the carriage. Lan Yu followed them nearby to escort them, but they didn't run far, and they were attacked again.

This time, the first person smiled ferociously and looked at the carriage. Wei Wang asked him to get out of the car and talk about it. Zhuo Yuancan believed it. Despite the opposition of Qi Kang and Lan Yu, he got out of the carriage, but he did not see his third brother. He understood that he was fooled and asked the other party what he wanted to do. The man smiled and said, "I want to see the third brother, right? The third brother asked me to bring a word. The fourth brother, please go to the underworld and wait for him slowly. When he becomes the emperor and sits on the throne of the dragon, he will definitely build a temple for the fourth brother and worship it all day long!"

Zhuo Yuancan didn't believe it, but the other party said to the third brother and the fourth brother. Only their brothers would be familiar with each other's name. Zhuo Yuancan's heart was cold at that time. Just after a big war, he had no strength to fight against these people. If he died, he would die, but he was already a useless person. Why did the third brother still Can't you take his breath? With his false identity as a former emperor, is it a stepping stone to prevent the third brother from ascending to the throne?

Seeing that more than a dozen people from the other party slowly gathered around, the three of them stared nervously at each other's movements against the carriage. Lan Yu whispered, "Your Majesty, you and Mr. Qi quickly get on the old general's fast horse and rush out, and let the old man deal with them."

"Are you alone?" Zhuo Yuancan looked at Lan Yu worriedly, "They have more than ten people!"

"It's just about a dozen people!" Lan Yu was full of pride and disdain. "I think that there were more than hundreds of thousands of old people against the enemy on the battlefield. I'm afraid of what they will do. Your Majesty, just go at ease. When the old minister solves them, he will come to chase you. The goal of the carriage is too big. It's easier for you to ride the old minister's fast horse. By the way, don't go to Weijun. I heard it. Come on, Wei Wang is not a good guy either!"

So they exchanged positions. Lan Yu jumped into the carriage, tightened the reins with one hand, and rushed to the dozen snipers with a long sword in the other hand, while Zhuo Yuancan and Qi Kang rode on Lan Yu's horse tail. Lan Yu's carriage rushed straight and rushed through a gap in front of him. Zhuo Yuancan and Qi Kang rushed. Urging, the two of them escaped from the encirclement from the breakthrough. When the besiegers saw the situation, they turned around and wanted to chase Zhuo Yuancan, but they were stopped by Lan Yu and had to decide to get rid of Lan Yu first.

Zhuo Yuancan and Qi Kang fled far away. They saw the extremely fierce fight between Lan Yu and the dozen people from afar, but they could only watch Lan Yu attack left and right and fight to the death. Qi Kang trembled and said in a trembling voice, "Your Majesty, don't look at it. Run quickly. We don't get out of danger, and we are ashamed to be ashamed of the old general at all costs. The guardian of my life!"

In desperation, Zhuo Yuancan and Qi Kang had to urge the horse to run aimlessly. Unexpectedly, they left the road and soon lost their way in the wilderness. There was no food and no water, so they had to find a cave to temporarily stay overnight.

In fact, Qi Kang is right. Although Lan Yu is brave, she is old after all. She is alone to deal with more than a dozen killers. It is not bad luck and less strange. Zhuo Yuancan just holds a trace of hope and prays that Lan Yu can get out of danger smoothly.

After a difficult night, the two were almost frozen and barely walked out of the cave. Yuan Can really didn't know where to go to find the village. Looking at the blue jade horse, he couldn't find the forage everywhere. He was also hungry and tired. Not to mention carrying the two of them, I was afraid that it would be unbearable for one person to ride it, so he had to hold it and slowly continue to move forward. Go ahead. If they can't find a village or a household today, they will probably have to kill horses to drink blood, but Zhuo Yuancan still can't bear it. After all, this is the only memory left to them by General Lan.

Dragging their tired feet, Zhuo Yuancan and Qi Kang walked for another whole day. When it was dark in the evening, they saw a starlight in the distance. Zhuo Yuancan was overjoyed, but he saw that Qi Kang was about to collapse. He turned around and supported Qi Kang and said, "Sir, hold on a little longer, we are almost there!"

Qi Kang smiled bitterly, and a fierce cough made his blue veins soar. He slowly pushed away Zhuo Yuancan and said, "I can't stand it anymore. I really can't walk. Your Majesty, hurry up and get on the horse to find that family. It will be a drag for two people to move forward step by step. It's better for you to go first and then call someone to carry me up!"

Zhuo Yuancan saw that Qi Kang was really too hard, and it made sense, so he agreed, "Okay, I'll go to find someone first. This horse can't stand it like us. It probably can't carry me. Just leave it with you as a companion. When I call someone to pick you up, you must wait for me!"

Qi Kang waved his hand feebly and signaled Zhuo Yuancan to leave quickly, while he himself crooked and fell to the ground. It is estimated that he had a cold last night. Now not only his legs hurt, but his whole body is sore and weak.

Zhuo Yuancan walked towards the little starlight alone in the dark. In the wilderness of the suburbs, the lights seemed to be very close, but he walked much farther than expected. Zhuo Yuancan thought that Qi Kang was still waiting for him, and he was completely closer and closer to the starlight with a stream of thought.

The first time I slept on the hay, although the cushion was very thick, Zhuo Yuancan still felt that his waist and back were chrome-poked. Of course, it may not be because he slept on the ground. It was unprecedented for Zhuo Yuancan to go so far, and it was inevitable that he had backache. However, compared with last night, the hay and the fire pond in the house were already warm. A lot.

The owner of the shack is a single husband who is a lonely and indifferent personality. It is usually estimated that he makes a living by beating some hares. There is a lot of rabbit dry meat hanging in the house. It is only because now that it has entered autumn and winter and the grass everywhere has been barren, so he is alone in the house and goes out to pick up some dry firewood and dead grass every day to store it for the winter.

Zhuo Yuancan broke into the shack to explain his intention. The man with a messy grass-like beard was silent for a long time before he agreed to let Zhuo Yuancan and others stay overnight. At the same time, he pushed out the wheelbicle outside the house and gave Qi Kang and Lan Yu's horses according to the position Zhuo Yuancan said. I brought it back, but there was no extra bed in the small room, so I could only lay some hay in the corner to sleep.

After Fu Qi Kang lay down, the man made a fire in the room, set up a big pot, and cooked a few pieces of dried meat for Zhuo Yuancan and others, but there was no salt. However, when the fragrance of meat permeated the hut, Zhuo Yuancan felt that it was more mouth-watering than the delicacies in the palace. He was so hungry that he couldn't wait to swallow the pot in one breath. .

He even took a bowl of soup and meat. Zhuo Yuancan gave Qi Kang the tip, but Qi Kang seemed to be weak. He only ate a little, so he curled up on the hay shop and closed his eyes slightly. Zhuo Yuancan knew that these foods were not easy to get, but he did not avoid any suspicions. He took Qi Kang's bowl and fished some for himself. After eating it all, he felt My spirit is a little better.

The man waited for Zhuo Yuancan to open the pot until he was full and added some firewood. He fell asleep silently. Zhuo Yuancan himself roasted the fire by the fire pond for a while before he came to Qi Kang and lay down. Probably his body's consciousness recovered. Soon after sleeping, he felt soreness and couldn't sleep, and the Qi beside him. Kang, somehow, is always coughing and breathing heavily.

Zhuo Yuancan finally couldn't help turning over and sat up. He stretched out his hand to explore Qi Kang's forehead and found that Qi Kang's forehead was hot, and his heart was not good. When he touched his hands and feet again, he was also burning his hands. Zhuo Yuancan was so anxious that he didn't know what to do. He saw that the eunuch was sleeping soundly and snoring from time to time. He thought that it was enough to be a sojourner. It's disturbing, how can you have the nerve to wake someone up again and toss with yourself? Then he quietly left the grass shop and looked for it in the house. There was a water tank by the door. Zhuo Yuancan saw that the man cooked the meat for them with the water in the scooped water tank. He didn't know where the nearby water source was. He had to scoop up the little water left in the water tank. Then Zhuo Yuancan wet it with a sweat towel around his waist, twisted it, and then folded it neatly and turned back to put it on. On Qi Kang's forehead.

What else can be done for Qi Kang? Zhuo Yuancan was at a loss. Seeing that the man's residence was simple, it was estimated that there was no medicine to cure the disease. It was really a leak in the house and it rained overnight. If Qi Kang had anything good or bad, then he was really lonely.

Now I just hope to stay up until the next morning as soon as possible. When the nearest village and town of the man is clear, he will want to take Qi Kang to see a doctor. He can't let Qi Kang be so sick.

Zhuo Yuancan planned so. Sitting on the edge of the fire pond, he finally couldn't stand the fatigue and took a nap. Unconsciously, he even dreamed of a dream. In his dream, he released the Buddha back to his childhood. Together with the third brother and Huanying, he was still like that day, he was reading aloud in Qi Kang's house. The breeze was gentle, and the flowers falling outside the window floated in his beautiful youth.

His body was suddenly shaken violently. Zhuo Yuancan woke up. The fallen flowers in the dream were broken into tens of millions of pieces of broken Yinhong, and the scars were scratched on the tip of his heart. The doger did not speak, but curled up on the grass with his fingers.
