"We didn't mean to hurt your people. We thought they were chasing us. The injured man has been returned to you. Now we just want to get out of here." The teenager said word by word. Although his pronunciation was not very accurate, at least he could express his meaning clearly.
Ye Zhen and Tang Zhen looked at each other. Tang Zhen asked, "Who did you return Shen Yi to?"
"That man should be the emperor of your Jin Kingdom. I heard them call him Your Majesty, but …" The teenager pursed his lips. "They met the people who came to kill us. I don't know how they are now."
"What?!" Ye Zhen exclaimed. There are still people in the mountains!
Jin Shanshan took a few steps forward and looked at the teenager. He asked tentatively in the language of Western Liang, "Are you the prince of Western Liang, Wanyan Xi?"
The teenager's face changed. He looked at Jin Shanshan warily and blurted out in the language of Western Liang, "Who are you?"
The black-clothed man protected the teenager behind him and looked at Jin Shanshan with sharp eyes.
Jin Shanshan whispered to Ye Zhen, "The teenager is the prince of Western Liang. I don't know why he is here."
Ye Zhen nodded gently. She could understand the language of Western Liang. When Jin Shanshan asked Wanyan Xi, she had already heard it. "Why is the prince of Western Liang in our Jin Kingdom? You just said that someone is chasing you. Who is it?"
Wanyan Xi probably didn't expect Ye Zhen to understand the language of Western Liang. He stared at her for a while before whispering, "It's the Witch King who wants to kill me."
Ye Zhen was even more shocked. She and Tang Zhen looked at each other. "Brother Tang, let's go into the mountains to find the emperor."
"You go back with us." Tang Zhen pointed to Wanyan Xi. "Otherwise, even if you get out of here, you won't go too far."
Wanyan Xi looked at Tang Zhen for a while and whispered in the ear of the black-clothed man. The two seemed to be discussing something. Finally, Wanyan Xi nodded. "Well, we will go with you to find people. However, after we find your emperor, you must ensure that we can leave here safely."
Ye Zhen nodded without hesitation. "Good."
"He …" Tang Zhen looked at the black-clothed man. He could see that this man must be the one who caught Shen Yi. Obviously, his martial arts must be good.
Wanyan Xi immediately said, "He is my warrior, Ah Duo. If it weren't for him, I would have been burned to death by the fire."
Tang Zhen looked at him and didn't ask any more questions.
Jianjia gave the horse to Wanyan Xi. She and Hong Ying shared the same horse.
The road up the mountain was farther than they had imagined. Ye Zhen kept thinking of the divination in the morning and was deeply afraid that Mo Rongzhan would encounter any danger in the mountains.
"You live in a cave?" Tang Zhen seemed to be very interested in why Wanyan Xi was still in the Jin Kingdom. He kept asking him questions along the way.
"If we don't find a cave to live in, we won't be able to survive in the mountains. We can only chase the wild boars out," Wanyan Xi replied in a low voice.
Ye Zhen glanced at him. "The big wild boar's cave was occupied by you!"
"Yes." Wanyan Xi nodded.
No wonder the wild boars in the mountains would come out. It turned out that their nests were gone.
Ye Zhen looked at the mountain road ahead. "Why are there people chasing you? How many people are there?"
"More than a dozen people, all assassins of Qian Luosha," Wanyan Xi said.
Qian Luosha again? Hearing this familiar name, Ye Zhen raised her eyebrows. She was also almost killed by Qian Luosha's people. "Is it related to the Witch King of Xiliang?"
Hearing the Witch King of Xiliang, Wanyan Xi looked back at Ah Duo. He tightened his lips and did not speak. His slightly immature eyes showed strong resentment and unwillingness.
"Here we are," he said, pointing to the cave halfway up the mountain. "We lived here before. I don't know where your emperor is."
Ye Zhen got off the horse's back and found that there was red blood on the grass next to her, and there were traces of fighting around, but she didn't see anyone.
"Where is he?" Tang Zhen looked coldly at Wanyan Xi.
"Do you think I deceived you?" Wanyan Xi asked. "I don't have to."
"Niang niang, His Majesty and the others should have left from this path." Jin Shanshan pointed to another path, on which there were messy horse footprints.
Ye Zhen said, "Let's go and see!"
As soon as she finished speaking, she heard Mo Rongzhan's voice. "Yao Yao!"
Ye Zhen looked back and saw Mo Rongzhan coming from the other side with bloodstains on his body.
"Your Majesty!" Ye Zhen cried out in surprise and ran quickly to him.
Mo Rongzhan dismounted and caught her. He hugged her tightly in his arms. "Why are you on the mountain? Didn't I tell you to wait here?"
Before Ye Zhen could answer, Shen Yi, who was behind Mo Rongzhan, found Wanyan Xi and the others and immediately drew his sword. "Your Majesty, they are here!"
"Catch them!" Mo Rongzhan ordered coldly.
Ah Duo immediately protected Wanyan Xi behind him and put on a posture of readiness to fight.
"What happened to them?" Ye Zhen asked hurriedly.
Shen Yi said, "Your Highness, they must be in cahoots with Qian Luosha's killers. They just escaped in the chaos, and now they dare to come back."
"We have nothing to do with those people. It's clear that you attacked first. If you hadn't attacked first, we wouldn't have caught you." Wanyan Xi said in stiff Central Plains Chinese.
"He is the prince of Western Liang." Ye Zhen whispered in Mo Rongzhan's ear. "Qian Luosha's killers are here to kill them."
Mo Rongzhan glanced down at Ye Zhen, then looked at Wanyan Xi faintly. "You are Wanyan Xi. Who is Xuan Yuan to you?"
Wanyan Xi was stunned. He probably didn't expect the Jin emperor to speak the language of Western Liang. "Do you know my uncle?"
"Does Xuan Yuan know that you came to the Jin Kingdom?" Mo Rongzhan asked coldly, still doubting Wanyan Xi's identity.
"If my uncle knew that I was here, he would definitely come to save me." Wanyan Xi said seriously.
"You are injured." Ye Zhen looked down and saw blood oozing from the wound on Mo Rongzhan's lower abdomen. Her heart suddenly tightened.
Mo Rongzhan smiled and said, "It's just a minor injury."
"A minor injury is still an injury!" Ye Zhen cried angrily. "If you have anything to say, go back and ask."
"Prince, then please come to my place as a guest." Mo Rongzhan looked at Wanyan Xi with a smile.
Wanyan Xi glanced at Ado. It was not safe for them to stay in the mountains. Even if they could leave, the Witch King of Western Liang would still find them. If they went to the Jin emperor's place, they might have a chance to find his uncle.
Listening to the Jin emperor's words just now, it seemed that he knew his uncle.
"Good." Wanyan Xi nodded. This was the best choice.
Mo Rongzhan suddenly felt dizzy. He put his arm around Ye Zhen's shoulder. "Yao Yao!"
