Chapter 136 These doctors and commanders never imagined that it was just an ordinary escort mission, but when they climbed up the cliff and stood in groups of three facing each other, they found that the enemy had been waiting for a long time.

Those people even wore the same clothes as them, spoke the same words as them, and had faces they knew. They were indeed their comrades in the army.

But if you think about it carefully, you will suddenly find that those people have a common characteristic: they were all single-handedly promoted into the Langzhong Lingjun by the dead Wei Xiangguo.

Because he was just an ordinary soldier, he was able to survive the great purge that year.

"Webster's Party——"

The shouting stopped abruptly, and before the warning message could be sent, he was knocked down by a crossbow arrow fired by the opponent.

It turns out that the most terrifying enemy is never a country thousands of miles away, but a partner who has been with him in life and death.

The rebels quickly cleared the scene.

Lift the corpse aside and clean the blood. If there is blood seeping into the ground, cover it with thick soil to cover up the smell.

As a doctor, they knew how powerful Zong Jun's nose was.

If you want to succeed, you can only be cautious and flawless.

Finally, everything quieted down.

The rebels leaned over the cliff and waited patiently.

The convoy stopped at the foot of a winding mountain road. Going up further, we had to walk.

Princess Chu's motorcade is in front, and Jiang He's motorcade is the princess of Chu State stood at the highest point, waiting for Jiang He to pass.

They didn't say much along the way, and Jiang He didn't have a chance to mention Wei Nanxu's relics.

Seeing that the Princess of Chu was waiting for him, Jiang He picked up her skirt and approached her, slowly moving forward.

Zong Jun quickly took a step forward and followed Jiang He.

They passed through the Chu State's motorcade, and the carriage used to carry goods was parked at the end of the He noticed that the vehicle's originally tightly sealed gauze curtain now revealed several holes.

Was it scratched by the thorns on both sides of the mountain road? I hope the pearls inside don't fall out.

While she paused slightly, she suddenly felt as if many pairs of eyes were looking towards her, a little nervously.

Are the Chu people hiding something shameful? She speculated in her heart, but her expression was still smiling, and she walked towards the princess of Chu.

"Princess Anguo, be careful."

Although the princess of Chu has a hoarse voice, she is very considerate and gentle.

The thick power fence obscured her face, Jiang He thought, she must have a beautiful face.

Moving forward along the path, Jiang He began to mention Wei Nanxu to the Princess of Chu.

"Relics?" Princess Chu nodded and said, "I did send someone to sort out her relics. Wei's family has no parents. If Princess An wants to check, she can go to the Chu Embassy."

It was so easy.

Jiang He opened his mouth to thank him.

"It's just..." Princess Chu suddenly stopped, the white gauze fence fluttering in the wind, and said softly, "If you see something not good, please forgive Princess An and don't vent your anger on my great Chu."

Wei Nanxu believed that there were no flaws in his behavior, but it was indeed the case.

After listening to her words, Jiang He felt that she was a person who knew etiquette and valued promises, and nodded with a smile.

Wei Nanxu, who was in the white gauze, also laughed.

Today is your death day, princess. You made a mistake in trying to inspect the Chu embassy.

Wei Nanxu stopped again and looked up at the cliff several feet high and the narrow path more than ten feet away inside the cliff.

Arrived.

Because of the arrival of the two princesses, Jiuwei Mountain has been cleared and no ordinary people are walking around.

Looking from here, we can see that the narrow mountain road is sandwiched by rock walls on both sides. The walls stand thousands of feet high, the wind howls, and it is dangerous and dangerous.

The guards who were exploring the path had already walked to the opposite side. They stretched out their arms in a safe gesture.

"Please." Princess Chu took a step back and said.

"As my host, I would like to ask Princess Chu to go first." Jiang He also stepped aside.

The princess of Chu State was no longer modest. She stepped on the smooth rocks and walked into the path.

"Guard Zong, please wait outside." Jiang He followed the Princess of Chu and said to Zong Jun.

"It's better to let the slave follow," Zongjun smiled naively, "The slave is holding the jar filled with water. Be sure to fill it with a full jar of spiritual water."

"In that case," the Princess of Chu laughed in front, "then the troublesome sect steward will also bring me a jar of spiritual water. I will take it back and distribute it to the empresses in the Chu Palace."

There is no woman in the world who is a wife or concubine who doesn’t want to get pregnant and have children as soon as possible.

Since the Princess of Chu said so, Jiang He could no longer ask Zongjun to leave.

She turned back and took a deep look at Zong Jun. Zong Jun pointed at the back of Princess Chu with an unchanging expression and motioned Jiang He to get closer to Princess Chu.

Jiang He understood immediately.

Speaking of which, she and the Princess of Chu had only known each other for half a day.

There are cliff paths on both sides. If you want to set up an ambush and kill people, it is very easy.

If the Princess of Chu is a friend, she should follow and protect her; if she is an enemy, she should stay closer to make the other party avoid making rash moves.

At this time, the people on the cliff were also waiting quietly.

Miss Wei has told you not to be in a hurry.

She had to wait until she reached the cave where she could hide herself before she could take action.

Zongjun walked closely behind Jiang He, so close that he almost stepped on her skirt several times. He became a eunuch at the age of 12, and all he could rely on was his sense of smell, which he had trained for many years, and his sense of taste, which he could tell by just tasting something.

Apart from the scent of the two princesses, what else is in the air now?

What it was, with a little saltiness from the sea breeze, hit his nose.

It's the smell of sweat.

Men's sweat.

Zong Jun subconsciously glanced higher.

The cliff was guarded by the doctor's command. They were all rugged military officers. They were still wearing armor in the summer, and they must have been sweating under the scorching sun.

Therefore, it smells like sweat, which is normal.

The two princesses were talking to each other in front.

They lamented the steepness of the cliff and admired the small flowers blooming in the cracks in the rocks.

Zong Jun was just taking a deep breath.

The fragrance of flowers, the tenderness of grass, the soil being a little moist, and then——

Blood!

Zongjun was suddenly stunned.

There shouldn't be blood here.

unless……

He looked up at the cliff several feet high and saw scattered pieces of dust falling from the top.

"Your Highness!" Zongjun grabbed Jiang He's arm without caring about etiquette, "Run away!"

escape.

Almost the moment he said this word, hundreds of boulders fell from the sky, blocking the heavy sunlight.

Zongjun only had time to catch Jiang He, and he didn't care about the life or death of the Chu princess.

There was a princess of Chu blocking the way in front of them, so they had no choice but to run was a "rumbling" sound in my ears, which was the collision of rocks with the cliff.

Some stones were stuck between the cliffs, while more stones had fallen to the ground.

Compared with Jiang He's panic, Wei Nanxu just easily avoided a cave.

The cave was not big enough for her to take shelter.

When she first started planning the "Lingshui" in Mount Jiuwei, she had already found someone to dig the this time, she was hiding in the cave, listening to the rocks rolling down, watching Jiang He running away, and noticed a stone that was inevitable and hit Jiang He.

Die, die quickly.

Wei Nanxu thought to himself.

When you died, my little Qiang appeared to replace you. He returned to King Yong's Palace in panic and offered the antidote to Zhao Zheng.

only--

Wei Nanxu suddenly opened his mouth wide, and then clenched his fingers in extreme disappointment.

There was a cry of pain, and she saw the red color spreading not far away, and Jiang He's shocked and painful expression.

hateful.

At this life-or-death moment, Zongjun turned around and protected Jiang He.

A chamberlain, a eunuch, could actually do it for his master...

Damn!

As long as Jiang He is alive, Wei Nanxu needs to explain something and clear away the suspicion.

The sound of approaching guards could be heard from both sides of the mountain road, and even more people were rushing towards the cliff.

Wei Nanxu hesitated, gritted his teeth and stretched out one leg.

A stone hit her leg, knocking her to the ground.

Heart-wrenching pain resounded, Wei Nanxu trembled all over and cried loudly: "Help, help -"

The sound of rocks falling to the ground has stopped.

They only prepared so many stones.

In Wei Nanxu's sight, he only saw Jiang He hugging Zong Jun's body and dragging him out of the mountain road little by little.

The carriage was running like crazy towards the nearest town.

Jiang He sat next to the bloody Zongjun, and Cai Ling knelt beside her.

Cai Ling, who usually yelled when something happened, was silent now.

"It's the slave's fault." After a long time, Cai Ling said tremblingly, "The slave should follow, the slave should not be lazy and stay behind. The things in the carriage are valuable, and the slave is afraid of losing them. Master Jiang teaches the slave what to do. The most important thing is that I made a mistake."

"It's my fault." Jiang He looked at Zong Jun's nose that sank into his cheek. He forgot about his swollen arm and bleeding forehead, with a dull expression. "I don't know what's wrong with me these days. I'm so slow." Silly. The spiritual water is not important at all. When you see the dangerous terrain, you should return immediately. The Princess of Chu has already agreed, why should I go to get some spiritual water..."

At this moment, a hand held Jiang He's dress.

"Your Highness..." Blood and water mixed with broken teeth stirred up a vague sound in Zongjun's mouth, "This slave neglected his duties and caused Master Jiang to die tragically. Your Highness has never blamed this slave. After today, I can go to the underworld." , I apologize to your lord."

"Who wants you to apologize? Who wants you to apologize..." Tears welled up in Jiang He's eyes, "You live well, otherwise, you really deserve to die!"

She didn't want everyone to die and only herself to live alone in this world.
