Chapter 159 The third prince deliberately helped them?
In the middle of the night, the movement of Soushan finally disappeared.
Yu Yunxi, who had dozed off for a while, suddenly woke up.
She looked at the fire in front of her eyes, and then pulled her sanity back.
Fortunately, she is still in the cave.
She actually had a terrible dream just now.
In the dream, she and Jin'er were ambushed on the way back to the southwest, Jin'er was pierced by thousands of arrows, and she was also seriously injured.
Looking down at herself, she was covered in cold sweat and her palms were wet.
By the way, where is Song Cang?
Yu Yunxi frowned, she quickly stood up and searched around.
Song Cang strode in from the outside at this time, and he asked worriedly: "Master, are you okay?"
"I'm fine, I just had a little nightmare, where did you go just now?" Yu Yunxi shook her head and asked softly.
"There are many ferocious beasts in the mountains, and the humble official just guarded them outside." Song Cang replied quickly.
"By the way, Beizhi just went out to take a look. The people of Nanyue Kingdom seemed to be unable to find anyone, so they began to withdraw their troops." He continued.
"Okay, we should go back." Yu Yunxi nodded.
She didn't go back so late, Jin'er must be very worried.
Father and brother, if they send troops out to find her, it will be troublesome.
Patted the broken stone in the palm of his hand, Yu Yunxi walked out quickly.
"By the way, do you think the things in the dream will be real?"
Suddenly, something flashed in Yu Yunxi's mind, she paused, and couldn't help turning her head to ask Song Cang such a question.
That dream made her very confused.
If it was only herself, she wouldn't care about it.
But this dream involves Jin'er, who is the person she cares about most, and she cannot ignore it.
Hearing his words, Song Cang pondered for a while, and then said seriously: "In fact, sometimes, dreams may remind us of something."
Yeah?
Yu Yunxi was slightly taken aback, her eyelids twitching.
But she calmed down quickly.
"It's just a dream. Perhaps, dreams are the opposite."
she said softly.
"Did the princess dream about something bad?" Song Cang frowned and looked at her solemnly.
"It's nothing." Yu Yunxi shook her head lightly, then walked out quickly.
They all thought that the people in South Vietnam had no patience, and they all went back if they couldn't find anyone.
But when they went down the mountain, they saw a group of soldiers and horses.
Moreover, it was Nanxun who led the troops.
He actually led soldiers to search for people himself.
Yu Yunxi saw that familiar face from a distance. A scar spread from the corner of his eye to the tip of his nose.
She quickly pulled Song Cang back, and the two hid behind a tree, where the lush branches and leaves completely covered them.
But the footsteps over there were approaching step by step.
South training...
actually came this way.
"Regardless of whether the person discovered tonight is from the southwest, he must die!" Nan Xun ordered darkly.
"Your Highness, we have searched this mountain, but there is no trace. Could it be that person has escaped?" the guard said tremblingly.
"If you can't find anyone, then let me find him again. I don't believe it anymore. With such a small place, can this person escape with wings?"
Nan Xun continued to scold.
"Let me search this place again." Nan Xun continued to order.
Soon, those footsteps moved closer to Yu Yunxi and the others.
Song Cang looked sharp, and he pulled Yun Xi behind him.
If you are discovered, then break out of the encirclement.
"Prince, I just searched this place, but there is nothing."
Soon, a figure in a green shirt slowly walked over.
"Since the third prince has already searched here, I will take people to search elsewhere."
After Nan Xun finished speaking in a cold voice, he immediately led people around to search other places.
The third prince smoothed the folds of his cuffs, suddenly turned his head and glanced at Yu Yunxi's direction, and then slowly left.
Yu Yunxi and the two were behind the bushes. Through the gaps in the leaves, she could vaguely sense that the third prince's gaze was on this side, but she couldn't see his appearance clearly.
After withdrawing his eyes, the third prince turned and left directly.
"He seems to have discovered us." Yu Yunxi said in a deep voice.
"Yes." Song Cang replied.
Looking at the direction in which the third prince left, Yu Yunxi's expression was serious.
Why did the other party help them?
"Forget it, let's go back to the southwest first."
Yu Yunxi said in a low voice.
This place is too unsafe, we must evacuate as soon as possible.
The return road was smooth for them. It is estimated that those people from Nanyue Kingdom were concentrated in Soushan, so they had already evacuated all the people who were ambushing halfway.
When Yu Yunxi returned to the southwestern city gate, the gate unexpectedly opened automatically.
She fixed her eyes and saw that Brother Yi was standing at the door holding Jin'er.
One big one and one small one were looking at her seriously with straight faces.
Yu Yunxi's expression froze.
She knew that she couldn't hide her night visits to the enemy camp.
"Ahem, brother Yi, Jin'er, I'm back." She walked in and said awkwardly.
Song Cang remained silent, quietly following behind her.
The city gate behind him was slowly closed, the moonlight was blocked, and Shen Hezhi's expression was hazy in the darkness.
His behavior made Yu Yunxi even more nervous.
"You clearly promised us not to go to the enemy's camp. If Jin'er hadn't come to me, I wouldn't have known that you were so courageous to go to the camp of Nanyue Kingdom by yourself."
Shen Hezhi spoke seriously.
He usually protects Yu Yunxi the most, but what she did today was to disregard her own safety, how could he not be angry?
"Brother Yi, I didn't go alone. I even asked Uncle Shan for someone." Yu Yunxi struggled with his words helplessly.
Shen Hezhi: "..."
Seeing his face becoming more and more ugly, Yu Yunxi didn't dare to joke anymore, she quickly admitted her mistake: "Yixiong Jin'er, I was reckless, and I didn't tell you when I went to the South Vietnam camp. But I have returned safely now , I also found some things."
Hearing Yu Yunxi's words, Shen Hezhi's expression became serious.
Finally, he sighed softly: "Let's go back to the mansion first. This incident only alarmed Jin'er and me, and neither the father nor the concubine knew about it."
His last words made Yu Yunxi feel relieved.
She was afraid that her adoptive father and adoptive mother would worry about her.
"Let me hug Jin'er." Yu Yunxi walked over quickly.
Jin'er's body is a bit heavy, and her brother-in-law is not in good health, so she thinks it's better to let her hug him.
But at this moment, Song Cang, who was behind him, walked over quickly, and said softly: "County Lord, let's take a humble position to take care of the little grandson."
"he is?"
Shen Hezhi's sharp eyes swept across Shen Hezhi's body.
Yu Yunxi quickly explained: "He is the person I asked for from Uncle Shan. He accompanied me to the enemy camp tonight and helped me a lot."
After hearing Yu Yunxi's words, the vigilance in Shen Hezhi's eyes slowly dissipated.
"No need, it's fine for this son to hug me." Shen Hezhi said lightly.
No matter how sensible Yu Xiao Baozi is on weekdays, he is still a child.
At this time, he should have slept, but he was worried that his mother was holding him up all the time.
Now that seeing his mother is not in danger, he can rest assured...
He lay in Shen Hezhi's arms and fell asleep peacefully.
His little hand was still holding Shen Hezhi's collar, and he seemed to be very dependent on Shen Hezhi.
"Yes." Seeing this scene, Song Cang's eyes darkened severely, but he quickly lowered his head, and stepped back after saying so.
