Chapter 485: The Secret Passage in the Beauty Pine Forest

Liang Chongyue recounted her plan to her uncle and placed the place she had just written in front of him.

In one afternoon, Liang Chongyue had written down the army's subsequent attack routes and the dangers to watch out for.

As for more details, she had limited energy after all, and it was impossible for her to be absolutely perfect, but she believed that her eldest uncle and second uncle would be the backbone of the army, and even if she left, the army would be able to break through the northern imperial city.

Liang Chongyue took out everything she could think of and placed them in front of her uncle, including more than a dozen bottles of life-saving medicine. She also made written notes on how to use them.

Xiang Huayan looked at Chongyue busying herself with a grim expression. Hua Ting would go up to lend a hand from time to time. It was obvious that Hua Ting had been convinced by her.

"Chongyue, there are capable people in the army. You don't necessarily have to go. You are the commander-in-chief of the army. If you are not here, where will the morale of the army be?"

Xiang Huayan was not unaware of the seriousness of the matter, but he would rather lead his troops to the Beimang Mountain, which was covered with ice and snow all year round, overnight than watch Chongyue take the risk.

Liang Chongyue anticipated his uncle's reaction and took out a white jade porcelain bottle from his bosom and placed it in front of his uncle.

"This thing can cure all kinds of poisons in the world. My uncle has also eaten it."

Following Chongyue's words, Xiang Huayan's gaze fell on the familiar white jade porcelain bottle, and he understood the deep meaning of Chongyue's words.

"The new King of the North is an expert in poison. Even if you have it, what good does it do? The Northern Imperial City must be surrounded like an iron barrel right now. How did you evade the hundreds of thousands of troops and enter the Northern Imperial City? And then secretly eliminate him?"

Xiang Huayan became more and more excited as he spoke, but he didn't dare to think deeply about how many obstacles and dangers Chongyue would encounter on the way out today. If something happened to Chongyue, how would he have the face to go back to see Yue'er.

Liang Chongyue saw that his uncle was very stubborn. This was a man who had selflessly dedicated himself to Daxia. At this time, only the safety of the soldiers and the future of the people could make him change his mind.

Liang Chongyue poured tea for his uncle and handed it to him. He looked into his uncle's eyes and said slowly:

"Whether this succeeds or not, I will try. Success depends on man, and if you give your all, you will have no regrets. If it succeeds, the soldiers won't be so cautious even when drinking water. Sooner or later, the northern border will belong to Daxia, and so will the Tianqian River."

Liang Chongyue's eyes were determined. She glanced at Hua Yan's preparations. Knowing that no matter what she said, she would not be able to persuade her, she simply remained silent.

Liang Chongyue took out the marshal token that her scumbag father had given her before the expedition and handed it to her uncle:

"The army cannot be without a leader for a day. I'd like to trouble my uncle to temporarily take charge of the army. The Northern Expedition cannot stop."

After saying that, Liang Chongyue described the uses of the things she had just taken out to her two uncles one by one.

While Liang Chongyue was talking non-stop, Xiang Huayan and Xiang Huating looked at each other, both of them with worry and reluctance in their eyes, but since they were here, it was not the time to let their emotions get the better of them.

Liang Chongyue entrusted the million-strong army to his uncle, packed up his things, and left Huangdu with Jing Suiyang at dawn the next day. He rode his horse and followed the route given by the system to climb Beimang Mountain.

Beimang Mountain is rolling and the road is basically invisible. It is covered with ice and snow all year round. Even the people in the northern border rarely go up the mountain. Fortunately, there are systematic detection instruments. Liang Chongyue followed the instructions given by the system and saw the terrain under the snow in advance. He walked on the mountain with Jing Suiyang for more than 20 days without any danger before going down the mountain.

"Your Highness, we are not far from the Northern Border Imperial City after we descend the mountain. I have walked this road before when I was on a mission. I will lead the way for the rest of the journey."

On the mountain, Jing Sui Yang always wanted to walk ahead of Her Royal Highness the Princess to explore the way for her, but Her Royal Highness refused. When they came down the mountain and reached the place he had been to before, which required bypassing three capital cities, Jing Sui Yang said he didn't want Her Royal Highness to take the risk of exploring the way again.

At least there was shelter on the mountain and the wind wasn't too strong. But after going down the mountain, the surroundings were extremely empty and the wind was so strong that Liang Chongyue couldn't even open his eyes.

By the time Liang Chongyue had adapted, Jing Suiyang had already walked in front of her, and the warhorse she was riding was already following the path that Jing Suiyang's warhorse had taken.

Fortunately, all the capitals in the northern border are now under defense, and there are basically no people outside the capital. Liang Chongyue shortened the original route and arrived in Qingzhou, the closest to the northern imperial city, three days earlier than planned.

"Host, the garrison inside Qingzhou is larger than the garrison in the capital you've bypassed all along the way. You can't just go around it."

The system brought up the panel and looked down from a bird's-eye view. The densely packed ant-sized defenders were patrolling inside and outside the city of Gyeongju. After passing Gyeongju, they arrived at the imperial city that was surrounded like a Pansi Cave.

The horse had stopped. Although Jing Suiyang could not see as far as His Highness, he could still see the soldiers patrolling back and forth on the city wall. Qingzhou was the last obstacle for them to sneak into the capital. After passing here, they would reach the imperial city in the north.

"Your Highness, shall we take a detour like before?"

Jing Sui Yang's gaze towards His Highness finally fell on the little snake lying on His Highness's shoulder. In such a cold day, the snake did not hibernate. When it made eye contact with him, it began to bare its teeth, like a dog, but not even as cute as a puppy.

I don’t know where Your Highness got it from, it doesn’t look good at all.

Liang Chongyue was studying the map on the system panel. She could get around here but couldn't get into the Spider Cave. Fortunately, she asked a few more questions before cutting Yan Yang's tongue, and they came in handy now.

"Don't go here. Follow me on the rest of the way."

Liang Chongyue lightly pulled the reins and controlled the warhorse to adjust its direction. Before Yan Yang lost his voice, he told her that there was a secret passage in the woods outside Qingzhou City, which could lead directly to the Northern Border Palace. It was dug out in the past for the Northern Border royal family to escape, and later when he found out about it, he used it to enter and exit the imperial city at will.

There is a large forest outside Qingzhou City. When you enter the forest, all you see is white. It seems that it will take some effort to find the mark Yan Yang mentioned before.

"Puppy, locate the beauty pine forest in this woods."

The system didn't understand why the host was looking for the beautiful pine forest at this time, but it didn't ask anything and just did as it was told.

Soon a small location appeared on the panel, and Liang Chongyue rode his horse and took Jing Suiyang towards the location given by the system.

There are huge footprints left by wild beasts on the snow. It hasn't snowed in the north recently, so these footprints don't look like they were made in the past two days.

When they arrived at the beauty pine forest, Liang Chongyue looked at the extremely thick beauty pines in front of him. At first glance, he couldn't tell which one was the largest one.

"Let's split up and look for the largest beauty pine tree in this forest. We'll meet back here in an hour."

Yan Yang said that the entrance to the secret passage was inside the largest beauty pine in the forest. Liang Chongyue guessed that the person who designed the secret passage for the northern royal family hollowed out the middle of the largest beauty pine and designed the secret passage inside it in order to ensure the safety of the royal family.
