27. Chapter 27 The prince returns to the city and meets again
Chapter 27
There was a sudden noise in the grass behind him, and the horse thief was startled. He turned around with his knife in hand and cautiously stepped forward to check.
As I got closer, I felt the silence was frightening.
Suddenly, a wild cat meowed, which made him feel relieved and cursed himself secretly. Could it be that he was frightened by a child?
At this time, the subordinate who had climbed up to the top of the tree had already slid down. When his head emerged, he shouted, "Boss, there is no one up there!" As soon as he finished speaking, his face suddenly looked like he had seen a ghost, and he looked straight at the leader.
Behind you!
The horse thief leader's heart sank. Just as he was about to pull out his legs, he felt a sharp pain in the back of his heart. Then the blade inserted into his body was twisted, and the severe pain was felt instantly, and the world felt like it was spinning!
Even until his death, he did not see the child's face. Before his eyes fell into darkness, the horse thief suddenly felt regretful. If he had not attacked Qingbei City, if he had not kidnapped the child's mother, if he had not followed him into the woods...
It’s just that there are no ifs in the world, only cause and effect.
Because he attacked Qingbei City, because he kidnapped Su Yin's mother, and because he pursued Su Yin into the jungle with great ferocity, he died.
You reap what you sow, but many people don't understand this until they die.
Several horse thieves nearby heard the sound and came back, surrounding Su Yin who had not yet left.
Su Yin was holding the knife, his face was pale and tight, and there was a throbbing pain in his heart. Damn, the heart palpitations had to come at this time!
…
Qingbei City.
The army of King Dingbei had originally left for five days, but the journey was delayed because Prime Minister Su Shizong was not suitable for traveling for a long time. Two days ago, he did not want to run into the defenders who were evacuating Qingbei City.
After learning about the current situation in Qingbei City, King Dingbei made a decisive decision and brought his army back to the city. He arrived tonight.
When the Northern King's army was waiting to enter the city, they saw chaos in the city. Robbers and bandits were robbing homes and houses. On the streets, horse thieves rode tall horses and killed people.
The prince was furious, and the six black cavalry guards accompanying him swarmed up. They led the soldiers to defeat the horse thieves and fled the city. They captured the two men and put them in the government prison.
Ignoring the advice of Prime Minister Su Shizong, Dingbei Wang Yuanyi insisted on distributing the military rations stored on the return trip to the people, and ordered his soldiers to distribute the food that the horse thieves failed to take away to the people in batches.
Two days later, the city gradually settled down.
The midday sun was extremely dazzling, and the dry and hot air in the north of Saibei made me feel uncomfortable all over.
Dingbei Wang Yuanyi stood alone on the city wall, looking into the distance, wondering what he was thinking.
At this moment, his eyes narrowed slightly.
I saw a thin figure staggering out of the woods in the distance. It seemed to be holding a big knife in its hand, and it was limping towards the city gate.
This man was none other than Su Yin, who had been unconscious in the forest for a whole day after killing the horse thief.
At this moment, her face was pale, her lips were pale, her whole body seemed to be dehydrated and she had no strength at all. The hand holding the big knife was shaking a little, and she stumbled with every step she took.
Such a dragging body! Su Yin didn't forget to take a sip on the ground. The hot sun stung her and made her feel dizzy.
At this time, the city gate opened in the distance, and a column of black cavalry rushed over quickly.
Su Yin felt that he was dazzled, his feet were unsteady, the world in front of his eyes suddenly spun, and he leaned back.
Suddenly, he fell into someone's arms. He looked up and saw Zhao Hu, a strong man with a beard!
The guy suddenly yelled in a rough voice, "Your Majesty! It's a girl!"
Su Yin's heart trembled.
At this moment, she has disheveled hair, a thin figure, a delicate appearance, and a pale complexion. She does not look like a boy at first glance.
The dazzling sunlight suddenly came and went, and Su Yin finally saw a man in black and gold armor leaping off his horse and walking towards her step by step.
