Fei Wan and Xie Weizhou looked at each other, both of them were shocked.

If that army was the imperial court's reinforcements sent to block the attack, it would be fine. But if it was another army from the Queen Mother coming to join them...

With so many people, what will happen to the capital?

At the same time, both of them squeezed their horses' bellies, turned their horses' heads and galloped away.

It's not about running away.

Instead, he took a long detour to get closer to find out what was going on.

If you don't take a detour and rush forward directly, you will be discovered by the enemy scouts before you get close.

"Prince, go that way, I'll go that way. Let's move separately, so that if we encounter the enemy, we won't be wiped out in one fell swoop!"

Fei Wan suggested, pointing in two directions.

Xie Weizhou asked, "What if you run into that scoundrel again?"

"Then consider it my bad luck. The capital is more important, don't think too much!"

Xie Weizhou rode his horse at full speed, and turned around and stared at Fei Wan deeply when he heard the words.

The girl's long hair was as black as ink, and her loose robe fluttered along with her long black hair. Her eyes were firm and focused, and the unity of man and horse was like an arrow shot from a bow.

There are many young girls in the capital who can ride horses. Some girls from military families have learned archery and playing Cuju on horseback since childhood. Many of them are heroic and brave.

However, for the first time, Xie Weizhou sincerely felt that women riding horses was really beautiful!

It's not the kind of beauty that comes from a fancy dress, nor the kind of beauty that comes from being arrogant and domineering, but rather...

She seemed to be born with this power.

Galloping across the wilderness, like a hunting eagle, it pounces on its target sharply and ferociously.

Something touched my heart.

Without time to think about it, Xie Weizhou had already complied with Fei Wan's proposal.

"Alright, let's split up! You'll definitely be fine. I've already scared that guy out of his wits! Besides, he won't be able to use those sneaky flying knives and hiding tricks while we're galloping, so don't worry!"

Fei Wan turned around and smiled at him, "That's right! Let's go!"

After saying this, he turned the horse's head, slightly deviated in direction, and galloped away on its back.

The figure quickly disappeared in the mountains.

Xie Weizhou also turned around and sped up.

The sound of the wind passed by my ears.

He suddenly felt a little ashamed, thinking that his last words were really long-winded.

People always say that women are nagging, but compared with Concubine Zhao, he became the talkative and nagging one.

but……

Having said that, Zhao Fei looked quite suitable in his men's clothes, which made her look more heroic and graceful.

Just now, when we were sang the same tune with each other and used the good cop and bad cop roles to interrogate the flower thief, our cooperation was really tacit.

The two of them hadn't discussed it beforehand. As soon as she said she had to kill the man to prove her innocence after the confession, he knew she was doing it on purpose, trying to get him to confess more out of a sense of triumph. So he played along and argued with her.

If the last...

If nothing unexpected happens.

That person threw out smoke firecrackers for no reason.

He and Concubine Zhao really had a smooth collaboration.

Xie Weizhou rode his horse, savoring everything that had just happened, finding it quite amusing. The corners of his mouth curled up unconsciously, without him even noticing.

……

"Empress Dowager, I have brought you 20,000 troops from the Xishan Camp!"

In front of the car, a man in royal guard uniform knelt on one knee and reported to his superiors.

The car door was wide open, and the queen mother, who had changed into a bright yellow robe, sat in the car with a bodhisattva-like smile on her face, looking down like a bodhisattva.

Speak tenderly.

"I remember you. When Concubine Zhao fell from my carriage, you escorted her back to her own car. You really helped her. What's your name?"

"I am Captain Fang Wujiu of the Imperial Guard!" the guard lowered his head and shouted back, "I was ordered to protect Concubine Zhao. It was my duty at the time. Later, I learned that she was colluding with the traitorous Duke Zhenguo and Concubine Yue. I regret helping her. Please, Queen Dowager, punish me!"

The Queen Mother smiled and said, "It's just a small matter. You are following the Emperor's orders. How can I blame you? However, since you are loyal to the Emperor, you should know what to do now."

Fang Wujiu said, "Last night, I was ordered by the Empress Dowager to deliver a message to the Xishan camp. Upon hearing the news, General Zhang, the commander of Xishan, convened his tent to discuss the matter with his generals and sent troops to the capital to investigate. This morning, General Zhang led his troops to reunite with the Empress Dowager, willing to obey her orders. On the way, he encountered the army from Yuanzhou coming to support the king. Together, our forces totaled 78,000 men."

"Tell General Zhang to disarm and come to see me with the generals from Yuanzhou."

"Yes, let's go now!"

Fang Wujiu bowed and left.

At this time, the two armies met, one mile apart from each other.

Fang Wujiu came first to explain the situation to the Queen Mother.

After getting permission, I went to pick someone up.

The horses were fast, and in the blink of an eye, they arrived with the two generals.

General Zhang of the Xishan Camp bowed prostrate before the Empress Dowager, "My entire family is in the city. From my seventy-year-old parents to my three-year-old children, all have been confiscated and imprisoned by the Duke of Zhenguo. I beg the Empress Dowager to lead me into the city to eliminate these traitors and seek justice for me!"

The Queen Mother smiled.

"Lord Zhang, is this why you've come to me?"

"Yes!"

"What if the Duke of Zhenguo didn't raid your house?"

"Perhaps I will hold my troops in place and wait for the Queen Mother and Your Majesty to make peace."

"Hahaha!"

The Queen Mother laughed heartily, as heroically as a man.

He praised, "I like intelligent people, and I also like straightforward people. Lord Zhang, as long as you are loyal to me, I will guarantee the safety of your family. When the enemy arrives at the city, please charge forward bravely without hesitation."

"The general will obey the order!"

The Queen Mother then looked at the Yuanzhou general beside her and said gently, "Lord Pu, you have come all the way here. Thank you for your hard work. When did you set out? Did you encounter any obstacles along the way?"

With a face full of flesh, he knelt on one knee facing the ferocious General Pu: "Long live the Queen Mother! I cooked before dark last night, assembled my army and set off, rushing here overnight. I only alerted one post station on the way, but I killed everyone inside, and the news never leaked out. Fortunately, I have fulfilled my mission and arrived on time! I will obey all your orders!"

On the side, the Imperial Guard Captain Fang Wujiu was surprised.

"You...you..."

General Pu and General Zhang suddenly changed their expressions and drew their swords to attack him.

He was subdued in the blink of an eye.

General Pu laughed heartily, "You only know this now? This general didn't come here to support the king because of the news. I had already raised an army long ago. This Zhang guy didn't follow you to support the king either. He was attacked by the Duke of Zhenguo, so he raised an army to seek revenge. Hahaha!"

Fang Wujiu angrily said, "You are eating the emperor's salary, yet you dare to plot rebellion!"

"A wise bird chooses its tree to roost in. We will follow a wise emperor only. If the emperor is a bastard, we will naturally seek a virtuous and reputable monarch. Prince Rui is gone, but that's okay. We still have the Queen Mother, who will support a virtuous new monarch." General Pu patted Fang Wujiu's face. "I think you are capable. Follow us, and you will be able to serve the emperor in the future!"

"Bah! Traitor! You will not die a good death!"

General Pu swung his sword and chopped: "Then die, I will use you as a sacrifice to the flag!"

"Wait a minute."

It was actually the Queen Mother who spoke out to stop him.

He ordered, "Let us spare his life for now. Once we reach the capital, if he refuses to repent, we can sacrifice him at the foot of the city walls."

"Let's set off."

"In a few minutes, I will be able to meet the Emperor."

One hundred thousand soldiers and horses gathered together in a crowd.

It rushed towards the capital city which was already vaguely visible, with the momentum of thunder.
