MTL - Rumor Has It That I’m Pregnant with His Highness’ Child-Chapter 600 sheep into tiger's mouth
Chapter 600 Goats in the Tiger's Mouth
When Luo Pingsha led the people from the Prince's Mansion into the camp, there was quite a commotion, and everyone in the camp was awakened.
The torches were lit one after another, but in a blink of an eye, the entire camp was illuminated like daylight.
Meng Xizhou was the first to walk out of the crowd.
He was very surprised: "Xiao Luo, you didn't stay in Yujing City well, why did you come here?"
Because of rushing on the road day and night for several consecutive days, Luo Pingsha looked dusty all over, not only him, but everyone else in the county palace was also very tired, and everyone's complexion was not very good.
Luo Ping said hoarsely.
"It's a long story. You want to help me settle down with Nanny Xiuyan and the others. What about His Royal Highness? I have something very important to report to him."
Meng Xizhou pointed to the tent behind him: "His Royal Highness is talking to people there, why don't you wait..."
Before he finished speaking, Luo Pingsha had already passed him and strode towards the tent.
Meng Xizhou looked at his back in a hurry, raised his hand and scratched the back of his head: "What the **** is going on? Why is Xiao Luo so anxious?"
Luo Pingsha couldn't even wait for the transmission, so he opened the curtain and rushed into the tent.
In the tent, two civil servants were chasing King Lang for questioning.
"It's so late, and there are deep mountains and old forests around, where can the inspector go? Could something happen to him? Why doesn't His Royal Highness want to send someone to find him? Don't you worry about the safety of the inspector at all?"
Xiao Juan has already changed the blood-stained clothes.
This time, he was wearing a loose black jacket, sitting on the edge of the slump and wiping his No Return Knife, as if he had never heard of the questioning of the two civil servants.
Hearing footsteps, his subordinates paused, looked up and followed the sound, and happened to see Luo Pingsha rushing in.
Xiao Juan's eyes immediately changed a lot.
"Why did you come here? Didn't the king let you stay in Yujing to protect you?"
Luo Pingsha glanced at the two civil servants, hesitant to speak.
Xiao Juan understood and let the two civil servants go out immediately.
The two civil servants were already very dissatisfied with Langjun Wang's indifferent attitude, and now seeing that he wanted to drive them away, they became even more angry.
"Lang Jun Wang, the inspector is still missing, are you really indifferent?!"
"If there is something wrong with the inspector, who will bear the responsibility? You?!"
Xiao Juan glanced at them coldly, and said in a cold voice, "Since you want to know the whereabouts of the inspector so much, I will tell you the truth. The inspector has been killed by me."
The two civil servants turned pale with shock: "What?! How dare you kill the imperial court officials indiscriminately? You don't want to die?!"
Xiao Juan: "The censors teamed up with the gangsters to falsely preach the imperial decree, intending to put the king to death. Shouldn't he be killed?"
The two civil servants refused to believe Xiao Juan's words.
"Why do you say that the inspector falsely preached the imperial decree? What evidence do you have?"
Xiao Juan narrowed his eyes slightly, and there was a bit of danger in his eyes: "You are so facing the supervisor, do you mean that you are with the supervisor?"
The two civil servants subconsciously blurted out: "Of course not!"
Xiao Juan: "Then shut up and get out!"
The two civil servants were still about to argue, but before they could say anything, the No Return Knife in Xiao Juan's hand had already swept across.
They only felt a chill on their heads, and subconsciously raised their hands to touch the top of their heads.
But I saw that the neat bun had been cut off, and the broken hair fell down one after another.
The two were startled and frightened, trembling all over, and couldn't even utter a complete sentence.
Xiao Juan: "One more word, the next time this king will chop off your heads will not be your hair, get out!"
The two civil servants were so frightened that their livers and gallbladders were torn apart, and they almost scrambled to escape from the camp.
Seeing that there were no outsiders around, Luo Pingsha spoke.
"The princess of the county has an accident!"
Xiao Juan's eyes immediately sank: "Speak carefully."
Luo Pingsha told the story of how the old emperor sent someone to take Yu Niaoli away in the middle of the night, and finally said.
"Although the subordinates don't know why the emperor wants to take the princess away, but judging by the situation, there must be no good things. The princess seems to know that her going is bad, so she specially asked the subordinates to bring the people from the prince's mansion to join him. Your Royal Highness."
Outsiders may not know the reason, but Xiao Juan knows very well that the old emperor must have realized that his secret was known, so he sent someone to kill him.
At this moment, you may have encountered an accident.
The more Xiao Juan thought about it, the more anxious he became.
He immediately ordered someone to call Meng Xizhou over and gave instructions.
"Next, you will lead the team and continue to **** the food and grass to Liaodong County."
Meng Xizhou hurriedly asked: "What about you? Where are you going?"
Xiao Juan said in a deep voice: "Niaoyou is in danger, I must go back to Yujing to save her."
Seeing Meng Xizhou's bewildered face, Luo Pingsha briefly explained what happened in the county palace.
Meng Xizhou was worried: "The emperor has already killed you. You have just settled those who tried to kill you. If you return to Yujing again, won't it be like a sheep going into a tiger's mouth?"
Luo Pingsha also said: "How about we go back with you?"
Xiao Juan's attitude is very resolving.
"No, you must send the grain and grass to Liaodong County as soon as possible, Tang Guixi and the others are still waiting for this batch of grain and grass to save their lives.
If you fail to deliver the food and grass in time, the 300,000 Eastern Expeditionary Army will be trapped to death.
There is no delay in this matter, you will leave tomorrow morning! "
Meng Xizhou and Luo Pingsha still hesitated.
They all understand the truth, but they are really worried about letting Prince Lang return to Yujing alone.
Xiao Juan emphasized his tone: "The only people I can trust now are you two. If you don't want to help me send food and grass to Liaodong County, I really don't know who to turn to?"
This was the first time that Duke Lang spoke to them in such an almost pleading tone.
Meng Xizhou and Luo Pingsha could no longer say no, so they had to answer with red eyes.
"The subordinate promises you."
Xiao Juan reminded: "When someone asks tomorrow, you will say that the king has something to leave for a while, and the route for escorting the food and grass has already been determined. You just need to continue on the way."
Meng Xizhou and Luo Pingsha Qiqi nodded in response: "Here."
Xiao Juan quickly packed up his luggage, strode out with the burden on his back.
Meng Xizhou and Luo Ping sent him away anxiously.
They all knew in their hearts that the road ahead was dangerous, and the king of Lang County had put himself in danger. After this farewell, they don't know if they will see each other again in the future?
Xiao Juan got on his horse and said to Meng Xizhou and Luo Pingsha.
"You all go back."
Meng Xizhou wiped away his tears: "His Royal Highness, you must rescue the princess safely."
Luo Pingsha: "After we deliver the grain and grass to Liaodong County, we will rush to make peace with you as soon as possible."
Xiao Juan nodded slightly: "Well, goodbye!"
When the sound fell to the ground, he raised his whip, and the dark cloud immediately raised its hooves and rushed out quickly.
