Chapter 428 Slow March
Zeng Xueer was unwilling and felt very regretful.
"He is not my father, and I am not his daughter!"
It would be great if she wasn't his daughter.
"Your father is shrewd and cunning, and he deserves to die, but what did my father do wrong?"
"Your father framed your brother, and he is not a good person either!"
……
Zhao Chongxiu closed the case today, and his mood was not as good as he had imagined.
After entering the palace, he immediately ordered that the queen be given a piece of white silk.
When the palace servants went to the cold palace, they discovered that the little prince was also there.
"Don't come over here, don't even think about hurting my mother!" Zhao Yuanche was eager to protect his mother and didn't allow those people to get any closer, so the situation came to a stalemate.
Zhao Chongxiu had already made up his mind to kill, and there was no way he could take it back.
Not only because of Zeng Guangren, but also because of the Queen's evil intention to kill his two princes.
He wanted to end it himself, but he didn't want Che'er to witness this scene, lest he feel resentful and become a bad person in the future, so he fell into misery.
……
On Jiang Yue's side, the snail's pace of march is still going on.
Before this, she had already sent Song Jie to return quickly and report to His Majesty about the princess's fraud.
The envoys following behind him were extremely impatient.
He said unhappily:
"General, what do you mean? The weather is getting colder and colder. If we keep going like this, it will take seven days for you to lead the way. I'm afraid we won't get there before the New Year."
Yes, we walked like this for half a day and only covered a few miles.
However, Jiang Yue remained indifferent and led the way very slowly.
As it was getting close to noon, they passed by a jungle.
There is no village or shop around here.
Jiang Yue glanced over,
"Rest for a while and have your meal."
Jiang Yue led his troops to stop.
The envoys stopped and began to eat the dry food they had on the spot.
"Soldiers, you have been traveling for a long time. Let's have a good meal at noon today. Just hunt whatever you want to eat!" Jiang Yue said this, but in fact, she had secretly instructed them not to stray too far away from the team for fear of accidents.
"General!" Inside the carriage, the fake princess was also in a state of panic.
She screamed and was forced out of the carriage and walked towards Jiang Yue.
"General, you are probably too young to understand the daily routine of marching. How can you be a general if you walk so slowly? This princess is going to your Lindu Imperial City to marry the prince of the current dynasty. I am ordering you to hurry up!"
"Prince's Consort?" Jiang Yue looked back.
Are you?
"The road is rough, and your health is of utmost importance, Princess."
The woman saw that Jiang Yue was always neither cold nor indifferent, showing her general temperament. She and the team behind her became her puppets, and her chest was heaving with anger.
She felt that Jiang Yue was just pretending to be cold and indifferent.
"You are just a small general, how dare you be so rude to this princess!"
Beside him, the envoy also approached and said:
"General, if you continue to march like this, we in Xining will doubt whether you in Donglin are truly on good terms with Xining."
Jiang Yue thought of what Zhao Chongzheng had said.
At the beginning, Zhao Chongzheng was still thinking about waiting for Princess Xining to come. He was afraid that he was still in prison, so there was no reason for him to agree to His Majesty's forced marriage.
Now it seems that the Fourth Prince was overthinking.
She looked at the woman.
"Princess, do you know which prince you are going to marry?"
The woman shook her head.
"I don't know."
"It's the Fourth Prince." Jiang Yue's cold expression relaxed a little.
"Our Fourth Prince has someone in his heart. I'm afraid that if the princess goes away, she can only be a concubine."
"Become a concubine?" The woman said disdainfully, "Trying to sow discord shows that you have ulterior motives!"
She thought that since Jiang Yue was not the Fourth Prince's person, she had some connection with the person the Fourth Prince liked.
Come to meet her, intending to embarrass her on purpose.
The woman didn't seem to care at all about the fact that the Fourth Prince had someone he loved.
Jiang Yue: "I thought the princess would be so angry that she would not marry."
"So what if I'm angry? I have no say in my marriage. I don't expect you, a general, to gossip about me behind my back."
The woman didn't have a very good impression of Jiang Yue.
She is lazy, undisciplined, and a gossip. I'm afraid she is not that great.
Jiang Yue exchanged a few words with the woman, nodded slightly to the envoy beside him, and went to the bushes to look for the Xuanwu Army.
In the bushes, the Xuanwu Army had no intention of hunting at all.
They were very clear about Singh's appearance, so they had already concluded that the princess was lying.
Wu Fei sighed, "Oh, how should I deal with them? It's like a hot potato."
Can't lose it, can't keep it, and can't leave it.
Lin Guo said: "It is not advisable to ask for reinforcements, and it is not a solution to keep going."
Wu Ding: "Perhaps, General, you can gain the princess's trust. If you can be alone with her, you can take the opportunity to kidnap her."
Jiang Yue: "If she is a fake princess, how can she gain trust?"
It's not that she hadn't thought about splitting up their team, but the team had always been very united and regarded the Xuanwu Army as thorns in their eyes.
Lin Guo thought of Mu Heng: "I don't know what's happening in Lindu City now."
Jiang Yue also wanted to know what the situation was like in Lindu City. "Song Jie has already returned to the capital. I believe he will soon report the matter of the fake princess to Your Majesty."
In the current situation, all the Xuanwu soldiers didn't know what to do. They had no idea, and their backbone was Jiang Yue.
That night, they approached a county town.
The princess spoke.
"I'm staying here tonight. The carriage is shaking and I'm dizzy. I'd better find an inn to rest first."
The envoy shook his head, glanced at Jiang Yue, and continued:
"No, Princess. The closer we get to Lindu, the more we must not relax. If someone wants to kill you and try to stop the alliance between Xining and Donglin, and kidnaps you in the middle of the night, what should we, the ministers, the wedding party behind us, and the young general do?"
"We can't be separated under any circumstances."
"Tonight, we will still choose to camp in the suburbs. When we arrive at Lindu City, you can get some good sleep."
"Okay." Although the woman tried her best to have a good sleep, she also knew what was more important.
At this moment, he sat quietly in the carriage again.
Jiang Yue listened quietly without expressing her opinion.
Originally, these people were filled with anger because she had deliberately slowed down their pace, so how could they listen to her about whether to stay in the inn or not?
On the contrary, if she said she would not stay in the inn, it would go against her previous behavior and might arouse suspicion.
However, if this woman dared to stay in the inn, she would rob people in the middle of the night.
