The First National Preceptor of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 154

After setting off, they traveled for two full days before finally arriving in the Western Regions.

The time it took to travel from the southwest to the Western Regions was not short.

When we arrived, it was already night.

At that moment, a group of people suddenly rushed out.

wrong......

The second prince's expression changed.

There are two groups of people!

A band of bandits and a group of soldiers from the Western Regions!

......

The next day, at noon.

During this time, Yan Ji would occasionally exchange a few lines of poetry with Xu Tian, ​​rediscovering the joy she used to experience when she frequented poetry gatherings.

And she smiled more and more often.

Even her longtime maids said, "She hasn't laughed in a long time. Since this guard came, the queen has been much happier."

This eye was not that of a maid from the Western Regions, but rather something she brought from the Tang Dynasty when she got married.

But this also made her miss the Tang Dynasty even more.

Upon hearing the maid's words, Xu Tian smiled faintly, feeling even more pity for Yan Ji.

In this day and age, no one can make their own decisions.

Just then, lunch was served. Yan Ji had never liked the food of the Western Regions, but there were no chefs from the Tang Dynasty in the Western Regions, so she could only force herself to eat it. Over the years, she had gotten used to it.

Looking at the food in front of her, the smile that had finally appeared on her face suddenly vanished.

He raised his hand, casually picked up a little food, and put it in his mouth, but then stopped eating.

Everyone could tell that Yan Ji didn't like the food from the Western Regions, but no one paid much attention to it.

Only Xu Tian and the maid felt pity.

The maid then left for a while. When she returned, she was carrying a food box. She placed the food box on the table and opened it. Inside were all Tang Dynasty dishes, which she had secretly learned in the Western Regions. Whenever Yan Ji was not in the mood to eat, the maid would go to the kitchen and personally cook a Tang Dynasty meal for Yan Ji, hoping that Yan Ji would eat more.

Yan Ji's face indeed showed a hint of a smile again. Considering that Xu Tian and the maids present were both from the Tang Dynasty, she dismissed the maids and guards from the Western Regions, leaving only the two of them to eat together.

In that instant, she felt as if she had returned to the Tang Dynasty.

After the meal, the maid spoke with a complicated expression: "Your Majesty, the Second Prince of the Tang Dynasty has been arrested and imprisoned. I just heard it in the kitchen."

She had originally planned to discuss this matter after the meal, hoping to encourage the Queen to eat more.

Upon hearing this, Yan Ji immediately asked with concern, "The Second Prince has been arrested?!"

The maid nodded.

Now, not only him, but even Xu Tian looked surprised, but he quickly calmed himself down and thought of a solution.

The news that it was the Second Prince confirmed that it was the King of the Western Regions.

But right now, the Second Prince should be rotating troops in the southwest region, so why is he here?

Xu Tian now only hopes that the news is false, but the Second Prince is his student and is very outstanding. No matter what, he has to investigate.

At this moment, Yan Ji's expression changed from worry to frustration.
