This ice is not as thick as the ice on the Ice Field. It can be passed from above.
Gu Jiao frowned. "Then we can only go by land … But can we make it in time? Whatever, we have to go whether we can make it in time or not! "
She paused and said, "Ask someone from the Shadow Division to come here!"
"Yes!"
Wenren Chong answered.
Most of the members of the Shadow Division went to the Jin Kingdom with Liaochen, so there were not many people left in the camp. The Shadow Guard called by Wenren Chong was Cen Yang. He was specially arranged by Liaochen in the camp so that Gu Jiao could contact him.
Cen Yang bowed to Gu Jiao. "Young Commander."
Everyone in the camp called her Young Commander. At first, she didn't understand and thought it was a problem with the accent. Later, when she found out, it was too late to change it.
So she just let them be.
Gu Jiao asked, "The Shadow Division has been in the Zhao Kingdom. Are there any hidden sentries along the way?"
"Yes, there are people from the Shadow Division near every post station. Young Commander, do you want to find out something?"
"I want to send something to the capital of the Zhao Kingdom as soon as possible!"
"The capital of the Zhao Kingdom?" Cen Yang came to the table and looked at the map on the table. He pointed and said, "The fastest way is to go by water from the port of the Tong Continent. Unfortunately, the bay of the Tong Continent froze last night … We can only go by Yunzhou. The bay of Yunzhou hasn't frozen yet, but judging by the weather, it will freeze soon."
Gu Jiao murmured, "You mean we have to get on the ship before the bay of Yunzhou freezes?"
Cen Yang nodded. "Yes. The water near the port is shallow and slow, so it's easy to freeze. It's not so fast in the center of the river."
Gu Jiao said seriously, "I know. I'll go to Yunzhou now!"
It was 300 miles from here to Yunzhou. In such bad weather, it would be more difficult to travel.
She had to choose the most suitable horse.
The Black Wind King seemed to have sensed something and came to the entrance of the tent without hesitation.
However, she could not ride the Black Wind King anymore. Ever since the Black Wind King came to the border, it had been through many battles, big and Little Shi. Especially in the battle to take down the South Gate of Pu City, it was severely injured.
After that, it did not immediately rest. Instead, it fought alongside her for a long time.
She could not risk it again.
Gu Jiao went to the stable.
The Black Wind Cavalry was the earliest and most elite force in the Xuanyuan Army. However, before the reinforcements arrived, this force had fought too many battles and was covered in wounds.
A warhorse in its prime needed rest.
But the moment Gu Jiao walked in, all the warhorses immediately went into battle mode.
They could still fight!
Gu Jiao clenched her fists.
"Young Commander …" Wenren Chong brought over a ten year old warhorse. "Let's choose this one. It only fought in a battle and suffered some minor injuries. But, it has already recovered."
Gu Jiao asked, "Are there any horses that have not been injured?"
Wenren Chong said, "Yes, they have all gone to the front line. Otherwise, there are the young Black Wind Cavalry who are transporting the provisions."
At this moment, a three year old Black Wind Cavalry galloped over. It jumped in front of Gu Jiao a few times, as if it was showing off its strength to Gu Jiao.
Gu Jiao recognized it.
It was the Black Wind Cavalry that fell into the waterfall when crossing the mountain range. The Black Wind King saved it in time, but the provisions on its back were gone.
It was depressed until Gu Jiao put the herbs she picked on its back.
"It seems to have grown a lot in just two months." Gu Jiao checked its body and found that it was very strong. Although it was only three years old, its muscles were full of explosive strength.
"Little Black Wind Cavalry, it's up to you whether we can send the antidote to the ship before the ice freezes."
…
The three hundred miles to Yunzhou, the Black Wind Cavalry ran as fast as it could.
The winter was very cold. It was snowing everywhere. The road was dangerous and difficult. The Black Wind Cavalry almost split several times. Its hair was standing on end!
But it was not afraid. It did not flinch. It did not even slow down.
Facing the whistling cold wind, it galloped on the endless official road as if it was about to fly.
In terms of quality, it was not the best. The best quality horses that Gu Jiao had seen so far were the Black Wind King and Little Shiyi.
However, this Black Wind Cavalry had an unyielding will and an unyielding fighting spirit.
Along the way, both of them fell. Without saying anything, the Black Wind Cavalry got up and continued!
It carried Gu Jiao and continued to gallop!
In the wind and snow, it was its king!
Even if the Black Wind King was not injured, it would still be a bit difficult to run for three hundred miles in the wind and snow.
The Black Wind Cavalry's physical strength was gradually exhausted.
Gu Jiao's hands were already frozen stiff. Her cheeks and lips were numb. She could not even speak clearly, "Little Black Wind Cavalry, hold on a little longer. We're almost at Yunzhou!"
The Black Wind Cavalry panted and gritted its teeth. It stood up and ran to the gate tower of Yunzhou like an arrow.
…
On the tenth day of the twelfth lunar month, it snowed all night in the capital of Zhao Country.
When Yu Jin got up before dawn, she almost could not open the door.
"Why is the snow so heavy? It's blocking the door … Someone! "She called.
A servant came over with a shovel. She shoveled the ice and snow in front of her door and opened the door for her, "I was just about to shovel the snow. I didn't expect you to get up so early."
Yu Jin did not mean to blame her. It was true that she got up early. She looked at the direction of the south and asked softly, "Is the young master up?"
The servant said, "I don't think so. I didn't hear anything."
Yu Jin nodded, "I know. Go do your thing."
"Okay." The servant went to sweep the snow in the yard. Her movements were very light and did not disturb anyone.
In the south room, Shangguan Qing woke up early. Last night, the mother and son talked until late into the night. After midnight, Princess Xinyang could not resist the sleepiness of pregnancy and fell asleep.
Shangguan Qing did not take the antidote from the State Preceptor Hall. Suffering from the poison in his body, he could not close his eyes for even a moment.
Of course, he did not want to close his eyes.
He quietly looked at Princess Xinyang beside him.
This was his mother, the woman who had brought him to this world after being pregnant for ten months and walking through the gates of hell.
She was very gentle.
Although she might be very strict, he did not have the chance to feel it, did he?
It was almost dawn. His increasingly uncomfortable body reminded him that he had to leave here as soon as possible.
"It's faster than I thought …"
On the way here, he thought there were three more days. At dinner, he faintly felt that there was only one day left.
But now …
He covered his heart.
It was going to explode. He could not breathe.
"Brother."
Xiao Heng's low voice came from outside the door.
Shangguan Qing wanted to answer him, but he was afraid to wake Princess Xinyang.
"I'm coming in," Xiao Heng said.
The door was pushed open and Xiao Heng walked in.
He saw Shangguan Qing sitting at the head of the bed in a cold sweat. His face was unbelievably pale, his lips were black, and his whole body was trembling.
Xiao Heng's eyes darkened. He strode forward and hugged Shangguan Qing, who was falling from the head of the bed.
Shangguan Qing lay in his arms and said weakly, "Take … me away …"
Xiao Heng held him and looked at Princess Xinyang, who was lying on the bed with her eyes open and biting her fingers to prevent herself from crying out loud. His throat moved with difficulty. "… Okay, I'll take you away."
Xiao Heng helped Shangguan Qing up and put his hand on his neck. He walked step by step toward the door.
The moment he crossed the threshold, Shangguan Qing's body went soft and he slid down.
Xiao Heng hurriedly hugged him. "Brother!"
"Qing 'er —"
All of Princess Xinyang's strength was shattered by this fall. She could no longer agree to his request. She didn't want him to die outside!
She didn't want him to become a cold corpse in a deserted place!
She rushed over and knelt on the ground to hug Shangguan Qing, who was lifeless like a puppet.
"Qing 'er … Don't go … Don't leave Mother … Don't … Don't …"
Hot tears splashed on his cheeks and fell into his eyes.
A tear slid down from his eye.
Mother, I'm sorry.
I can't be your son anymore.
I don't regret being born by you.
Thank you for bringing me into this world.
The human world is so good.
I like it very much.
Princess Xinyang hugged her son tightly. She felt that she was losing him. Her heart was broken, and her tears fell uncontrollably. "Qing 'er — Qing' er —"
Xiao Heng turned around. His eyes were red and swollen.
Yujin stood outside the door. She covered her mouth tightly, but she couldn't hold back the tears in her eyes.
Why … Why was God so cruel?
The princess had only been reunited with the young master for a day, but she lost him again —
How many times did the princess have to go through the pain of losing her son?
Yujin cried sorrowfully.
The servants in the courtyard all turned their faces away to secretly wipe their tears.
There was nothing crueler in the world than this …
Clang!
The door of the courtyard was kicked open. Because the force was too great, the whole door fell on the bonsai planted by Princess Xinyang.
Just as the servants were about to shout, the travel-worn man walked in. "Your Highness Zhang (Zhangsun)! An (me) taunts (orders) Xiao (little) commander (s) yo (medicine) to deliver my life! "
All the servants were stunned. What … What was this?
The Shadow Division expert cleared his throat. "Wrong! I'm here to deliver you the medicine under the orders of Commander Xiao! I was anxious and spoke carelessly! "
"Give it to me quickly!" Xiao Heng understood. He couldn't wait for the other party to deliver the medicine and walked over himself.
The Shadow Division expert had seen his portrait and handed the medicine to him.
There were a total of two bottles of medicine and a note.
The note said, "Feed him the white fruit in the white jade bottle first. If he doesn't get better, feed him the brown pill in the jade bottle. The fruit is purple grass fruit, non-toxic. The brown pill comes from the roots of purple grass, highly toxic."
It was Gu Jiao's note.
Xiao Heng didn't have any doubts or hesitation. He rushed into the room, pried open his brother's mouth, and fed him the white fruit.
Xiao Heng looked serious. "He can't eat it!"
"Let me do it!"
The Shadow Division expert rushed over and slapped Shangguan Qing's chest. The fruit slid smoothly into his stomach.
Princess Xinyang looked at the Shadow Division expert in surprise and then turned to Xiao Heng. She asked in a daze, "What did you feed your brother?"
Xiao Heng replied, "Jiaojiao sent someone to deliver … medicine."
It couldn't be called an antidote because it might not work.
If it didn't work, then Shangguan Qing would still have to take the purple grass poison.
What nine deaths? It should be ten thousand deaths.
And who knew what side effects would happen to those who survived?
Shangguan Qing, you must get better.
When you're well, I'll call you brother as many times as I want.
The person in Princess Xinyang's arms didn't respond.
Xiao Heng picked up the jade bottle with trembling hands. Next, he could only try the purple grass poison …
"Hey, hey, hey! Knock (look)! "The Shadow Division expert pointed at Shangguan Qing's finger." He moved! He moved! "
Both mother and son looked at his fingertip.
Although it was very weak, he did move.
The Shadow Division expert stared at his face and said, "His glabella isn't as black as it used to be!"
Princess Xinyang looked at Xiao Heng with tears in her eyes. She sobbed and said, "I don't understand what he said …"
Xiao Heng smiled for the first time in a month, as if relieved of a burden. "He said that brother's glabella isn't black anymore … This is a sign that the poison in his body is gradually getting better … The purple grass fruit worked … He doesn't have to take the purple grass poison anymore …"
His emotions were tumbling in his chest. They were even more stormy than when Shangguan Qing was dying.
It was endless suppressed sadness, like an iceberg that couldn't be melted under the sun. At this moment, the iceberg cracked, and joy spurted out from the ground like lava.
His five viscera and six bowels were burning.
"It's really …"
He fell on the ground and raised his hand to wipe his red eyes, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.
The glabella stopped moving after it had faded to a certain extent.
"What's going on?" Princess Xinyang's eyes were red, like a frightened child. "And why hasn't Qing woken up yet …"
"Not so fast!" The Shadow Division expert said, "The poison is too deep. It needs to be removed slowly. Do you have many fruits?"
Xiao Heng looked at the big bottle full of fruits. "Yes!"
The Shadow Division expert said, "That's enough! If I feed him this every day, Zong will wake up! "
Xiao Heng carried Shangguan Qing back to the bed.
If he doesn't wake up, I'll need more Purple Grass Poison, he thought.
An hour later, Shangguan Qing's breathing was smoother than before. His face was still pale, but his brows, which had been tightly knitted because of the pain, had relaxed a lot.
This meant that his discomfort had been greatly alleviated.
Xiao Heng guessed that he was still unconscious, not because the poison in his body hadn't been removed, but because he had been tortured by the poison for too long and hadn't been able to sleep well.
Now that he wasn't feeling so bad anymore, he fell asleep peacefully.
Xiao Heng said to Princess Xinyang, who was sitting by the bed with difficulty, "Mother, don't worry. This fruit is very effective. Brother will definitely recover."
"Yes." Princess Xinyang nodded with tears in her eyes. She could feel that Qing 'er was returning to her side.
The joy of regaining what she had lost was indescribable. She had already lost Qing 'er once. If she lost him a second time, she knew that she wouldn't be able to live.
Her throat was hoarse from crying, and her eyes were swollen. She was in a terrible state.
It was inevitable that she would be rude to receive a guest like this.
She said to Xiao Heng, "Go thank that expert on behalf of Mother. Just now, Mother only cared about being sad and neglected his injuries. His face seems to have been disfigured. In a while, the imperial physician will come and take a look at him."
"Okay."
His mother was really meticulous.
She was so sad, but her observation skills weren't affected. She just couldn't react at that time. When she calmed down, she could sense that something was wrong.
This was a very rare and valuable ability.
The master of the Shadow Division was waiting in the corridor. He had to go back to report in a while and needed to know Shangguan Qing's specific condition.
Xiao Heng went out of the room and saluted him. "Thank you very much for today. I haven't asked your name yet."
The master of the Shadow Division scratched his head. "I'm sorry for breaking your door …"
Xiao Heng smiled. "It's okay. You're injured. Go to the Flower Hall first. The imperial physician will be here soon. "
Yujin had already gone to invite the imperial physician. First, to check on Shangguan Qing's recovery. Second, to check on the guest's injuries.
The master of the Shadow Division waved his hand. "I'm fine! My name is Gao Qiang, Gao Qiang as in martial arts! Your Highness, about the patient's condition … I have to report back! "
Gu Jiao didn't say who he was delivering the medicine to. The people of the Shadow Division were only responsible for carrying out the task and wouldn't ask about it.
He said seriously, "You called him brother. I didn't hear it!"
Xiao Heng smiled. It didn't matter if he heard it. After going through so many things, he suddenly felt that it didn't matter whether he hid the identity of the two brothers or not.
He said, "Why don't you wait for the imperial physician to come first? After hearing his specific diagnosis, you can go back to report."
Gao Qiang thought about it seriously and nodded. "Yes!"
Xiao Heng looked out of the courtyard and asked, "By the way, didn't my father come back with you?"
"You have a father?" Gao Qiang thought that the eldest grandson of the Yan Dynasty had a father? He hadn't heard of it for so many years!
He answered, "Not at all! I came here alone! Before me, there was also a person who brought you here! I didn't see you, Father! "
"Strange, the antidote is such an important thing. Why would he ask someone else to do it?" The more Xiao Heng thought about it, the stranger he felt.
It wasn't that the people of the Shadow Division were unreliable, but this didn't conform to his father's temperament.
Inside the room, Princess Xinyang was wiping the sweat on Shangguan Qing's forehead with a handkerchief. When she heard this, her movements paused.
Gao Qiang suddenly slapped himself on the forehead. "Ah! I remember! Thank you for reminding me! Otherwise, I would have forgotten! There was also a letter that came with you! "
He took out a letter from his bosom and handed it to Xiao Heng.
Xiao Heng originally thought that it was a letter from Gu Jiao, but when he opened it, he found that it was Long Yi's handwriting.
Long Yi used a charcoal pen to draw a glacier.
Under the glacier was a man whose hands were full of blood and whose bones were visible.
Xiao Heng's heart was suddenly grasped by a big hand.
"What happened?"
Princess Xinyang walked out.
Xiao Heng stealthily hid the drawing behind his back. Looking at his haggard mother who was about to give birth, he clenched his fists and endured. "… Nothing."
Princess Xinyang looked at Gao Qiang.
Gao Qiang didn't understand and honestly said, "Oh, it's the person who went to Origin Ice to look for you (medicine). He died and can't come back!"
Princess Xinyang's expression stiffened.
