    The prince was traveling at night under the stars. When he was more than two hundred miles away from the battlefield, he unexpectedly saw a familiar face coming towards him, but he passed by him again.

    "Xue Yao?" The prince pulled the reins and turned around in surprise. He saw a figure that looked exactly like Xue Yao, like a fallen leaf about to wither, jolting and swaying on the horse.

    "Xue Yao!" The prince shouted towards the back.

    Instead of reining in the horse, the figure behind him raised his body in fear, accelerated the horse and galloped away, trying to escape from his sight.

    "Stop!" The prince was eager to understand the situation on the front line and did not hesitate to turn around and pursue him.

    His riding skills were better than Xue Yao's, and he kept pace with him without any effort. He turned his head and shouted: "Xue Yao! I order you to rein in your horse immediately!"

    Xue Yao, who had been on the road for a day and a night without drinking water, was already in a trance. He only felt someone calling his name again, asking him to stop.

    Xue Yao thought that a pursuer was catching up with him, so he was so frightened that he beat his horse wildly, trying to escape, and returned to the capital to find the second prince to mobilize troops.

    The prince frowned and shouted urgently: "Did you hear me?"

    After he shouted these words, he saw Xue Yao shaking his head and almost unconscious. He was about to fall off the horse. If he fell, he would either die or be disabled.

    "Xue Yao!" In desperation, the prince propped up his horse, jumped up, and landed behind Xue Yao. He used his arms to wrap around his almost fallen body, reined in the horse, and then whistled to stop it.  own horse.

    "What's the matter with you?" The prince grabbed Xue Yao by the waist and dragged him off the horse.

    Xue Yao looked like he was crazy, struggling desperately, and drew his sword to slash, but the prince pressed his wrist to the ground: "Xue Yao! Can't you recognize the orphan?!"

    Xue Yao was pinned to the ground unable to move, only his chest rose and fell violently.

    Such a close look allowed his blurred eyes to clearly see the outline of the prince.

    The prince noticed that the cruel and crazy expression on Xue Yao's face suddenly turned extremely sad. Xue Yao just stared at him with a grin on his face, choking hoarsely in his throat.

    "Okay, it's okay." The prince let go of his wrist and helped him up: "Where are you going? Why do you look so ugly?"

    "Your Highness the Crown Princewhere have you been? Why are you coming back now? Why are you coming back now!"

    The prince took the horse and led Xue Yao down the official road first, asking Xue Yao to drink some water and then explain the situation.

    Knowing that the father's life is in danger, the fifth brother has become a hostage, the life or death of the seventh brother is uncertain, and the prince is frozen into a clay sculpture.

    Xue Yao knew that he needed some time to accept such a big change, but time was tight, so he reminded him in a low voice: "Your Highness, you can't just go back like this. Now the three armies are under the control of the third prince. You'd better call in other troops."  .¡±

    The prince did not speak. He closed his eyes for a long time and said in a low voice: "It is hard to escape the blame for Gu Wan's death."

    "Your Highness, it was an accident that the emperor fell into the trap. Whether you stay or not will not change the result. The problem now is the ambition of the third prince. If you die, the fifth prince and the seventh prince will really be hopeless!" Xue Yao said  After that, he coughed for a while. He quickly drank a sip of water to suppress the cough and continued: "We have to go back to mobilize troops. You can't just rush to the front line alone!"

    The prince opened his eyes and said in a low voice: "You don't have to rush. Let's go down the official road and find a tavern to have a good rest. We will be alone on the front line."

    "Your Highness! How can you deal with three armies by yourself!" Xue Yao's face was full of horror.

    The prince raised his hand to tell him not to worry, "My father temporarily changed the position of crown prince, but he did not depose Gu. The second brother has urgently notified the governor of Huguang to bring troops to help. The frontline forbidden troops are under Gu's order. The only person the third child can rely on is his uncle Tong Ningzhao.  There are seven governors rushing to help outside, and there are forbidden troops inside to cooperate with each other. The governor of the northwest has taken the courage of a leopard and dare not continue to help the tyrants."

    The seventh prince signed a contract with five businessmen.

    The merchants sent him back to Beijing and asked his family to give him 2,500 taels of silver as labor expenses.

    "Two thousand five hundred taels of silver is not a lot in the eyes of the Seventh Prince. The royal father's gift to his mother and concubine is more than this price.

    The merchants¡¯ ¡°help in times of need¡± for His Highness is worth a reward of 2,500 taels of silver.

    The most talkative among the five people was Goatee. He kept asking the seventh prince along the way: "Are you still hungry, young master? I also have cured meat here. How about I only charge you twenty taels of silver per pound? It's better than grass carp."  full!"

    The seventh prince was a little moved.

    The man who was about to beat the Seventh Prince just now had the most explosive temper. Everyone called him Liu Sanhu.

    He couldn't bear to see the leader and Goatee calling the boy "young master" and felt there was no need to be so polite to the troubled young master.

    &He turned around and stared at him with eyes that said, "I'm going to fart soon."

    The leader behind him hurriedly caught up to stop Liu Sanhu, and smiled at the child: "Why do you want to leave by yourself all of a sudden, little brother? We have agreed to escort you back to Beijing."

    "No need." Lu Qian raised his hand and showed the bacon and water bag: "I have them to escort you."

    Liu Sanhu was about to have an attack, but was stopped by the leader. The leader still looked kind and said: "This is a betrayal. Little brother, dry food and water are life-saving things in this desert. We are willing to sell them to you because of you."  You signed a contract with us, and now you¡¯re leaving after taking food and drink, so the contract doesn¡¯t count?¡±

    Lu Qian said expressionlessly: "I'll see you at the gate of the capital. You will be indispensable for your money."

    Goatee caught up and said anxiously: "You are talking nonsense! You just slapped your ass and left. The capital is so big, where can we find you? No! Give me back the bacon and water! I won't sell it anymore!"

    With a muffled "dong" sound, Lu Qian dropped the food in his hands at his feet, stared at the five people in front of him, and slowly untied the long knife at his waist.

    Liu Sanhu immediately sneered: "What? You kid, you still want to take action? Damn, a newborn calf is not afraid of tigers! If you don't eat a toast, you will have to drink a fine wine! If you don't fight today, you call me grandpa, and my surname is not Liu."

    "Stop!" The leader still didn't want to make a fuss, so he asked Liu Sanhu to pull away, and still gently stepped forward to negotiate with the boy: "Little brother, don't be angry, we really have good intentions, and to put it bluntly, if it weren't for us yesterday  I gave you a sip of water and a fish, but now you are dying of thirst and starvation in this desert! We met by chance and we saved your life. You owe us such a great favor, so you can't turn against us and become enemies, right?"

    Lu Qian did not answer, staring at the leader coldly.

    He is born with a lack of emotional logic, and all his actions are goal-oriented. However, the little companion who grew up with him has an emotion-oriented character.

    So over the years, Lu Qian has been consciously or unconsciously trying to memorize other people's emotional logic, so that his behavior can be praised by his companion, who will breastfeed him when he is happy.

    Lu Qian likes that feeling, but it doesn¡¯t mean that he can understand and execute certain things from an emotional level.

    In his world, there is no logic of human relationships. He found these five people yesterday. If they refused to trade fish and water with him at that time, he would snatch the fish and water instead of dying of thirst and starvation in the desert.

    What the leader said is an illogical assumption for him.

    The leader always felt that the child's behavior was different from ordinary people. At first he thought the child might be a bit silly, but at this moment he realized that the bacon and water the child bought were almost enough for him to get out of the desert.

    ¡°And this child¡¯s sense of direction is extremely accurate, unlike frontier merchants like them, who have gained experience after twenty or thirty years of experience.

    This child¡¯s sense of direction is more similar to the wolves in the desert, as if it comes from the instinct of hunting wild beasts.

    This layer of weirdness and unusualness made the leader secretly fearful of this child. He smiled and discussed: "Little brother, I can see that you are not a treacherous person. Since we have signed the contract, let's go together. Figure  Peace of mind.¡±

    Lu Qian stared at him silently for a moment, then suddenly hung the long knife back to his waist, bent down to pick up the meat and water, turned around and continued walking in the direction of his choice, leaving only one sentence to the leader -

    "Follow me, I don't have time to delay you."

    I didn't say that I was going to abuse. How did everyone sorrow all over yesterday, I just said that I let Qi Cub know that people are having evil!  Everyone still wants to restore some of Long Aotian's true colors with Erha Gong. You can't just be a fool for the rest of your life!  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
