Chapter 301: Be careful on your way, see you later!
Li Changsheng played the role of a robber and robbed four high-quality war horses.
"Bai Xue, how is your leg injury? Can you ride a horse?"
Bai Xue looked at her injured calf and said, "It's much better now. I can ride a horse!"
Li Changsheng said, "That's good. Just follow the road ahead and keep going straight, and you'll be back in Luodu."
"Let's part ways now. Be careful on your journey and we'll meet again!"
Bai Xue also clasped her fists and bowed: "You too, be careful on your journey!"
After saying this, Bai Xue jumped on her horse and galloped away.
After running a dozen steps, she turned back and glanced at Li Changsheng.
Li Changsheng waved at her and gave her a confident look.
Tell her not to worry, that she can handle it.
"Hey, Yanqing, everyone has already left, why are you still looking?"
Seeing that Li Changsheng was staring at Bai Xue and watching her leave, Bai Li walked up to him and patted him on the shoulder.
Li Changsheng finally came to his senses and said with a smile, "Let's go too!"
Jiang Xiner asked: "Where are we going now?"
Li Changsheng hesitated for a moment and said, "Let's send Princess Baili back to Suanzao first!"
Although Jiang Xiner was somewhat reluctant, she was worried about Princess Baili going back alone in the current chaotic situation.
Afterwards, the three of them rode their horses towards the Suanzao camp.
When he was halfway there, he met Lu Wenqing.
Behind Lu Wenqing, there were still five scouts, all of whom were injured.
Two of them are seriously injured and dying, and their lives are in danger at any time.
It seems that the price of this ambush was very heavy, and only one in ten would survive.
Lu Wenqing was very surprised to see Jiang Xiner and Princess Baili together with Yan Qing.
"Princess, Miss Jiang, why are you here?"
Bai Li and Jiang Xiner looked at each other, and neither of them answered.
Instead, they all looked sideways at Li Changsheng.
Li Changsheng said, "They were both playful by nature and secretly went out hunting. They got lost while chasing a fawn."
"To make matters worse, they encountered the imperial court's lackeys on the way. I happened to run into them and was able to rescue them both."
After hearing Li Changsheng's explanation, Jiang Xiner and Bai Li were both slightly stunned.
Princess Baili spoke frankly and lowered her voice to ask, "We are not lost, but..."
Before he could finish his words, Li Changsheng quickly stopped him with his eyes and said in a low voice:
"Princess, the situation is unclear right now. If I tell you the truth, I'm afraid it will implicate the Crown Prince!"
Bai Li naturally knew that his half-brother Ying Jie had long been eyeing the position of Crown Prince.
Now she saw that Yan Qing was being used as a tool by her brother, the prince, to kill someone, and he almost died without a burial place.
Now he still considers her in everything, and as her sister, she can't help but feel touched.
At the same time, he also despised his brother Yingqi's despicable and insidious behavior.
Bai Li immediately clenched her fists and swore secretly in her heart.
After returning to the Suanzao Camp, I must find my brother in my own way to seek justice for Yan Qing.
At the very least, make him promise that he will never do such a despicable thing again, and never set his sights on Jiang Xiner again.
Lu Wenqing could only see Yan Qing whispering with Princess Baili.
But their voices were so soft that he couldn't hear the specific words.
I could only vaguely hear that this matter seemed to be related to Prince Yingqi.
Judging from the indignation shown by Princess Baili, it seemed that Prince Yingqi had done something to let Yan Qing down.
However, he was of low status and did not dare to say or ask about it.
Li Changsheng glanced at Lu Wenqing's expression out of the corner of his eye and smiled slightly.
Immediately, his eyes fell on the two seriously injured soldiers.
"These two brothers are seriously injured. They need to be treated quickly. Otherwise, they will die from this bumpy ride!"
Lu Wenqing sighed and said, "Well, who says it's not true? But there's a lack of doctors and medicine here, so there's no way to treat him!"
Li Changsheng said, "I've been around the world before, and I know a little bit about medicine. Let's find some herbs here first to clean the wounds of these two brothers and stop the bleeding!"
After saying that, he dismounted and found some hemostatic herbs in the nearby forests. He crushed them and applied them on the wound.
The two seriously injured soldiers were deeply moved when they saw that Yan Qing not only did not abandon them but also took the initiative to provide them with medical treatment.
Li Changsheng asked, "Are you the only ones who came back alive?"
After hearing this, everyone had a look of grief on their faces, as if they had lost their parents.
Lu Wenqing nodded: "Well, we were lucky enough to escape..."
At this point, an idea suddenly came to his mind.
The ambush they encountered this time was indeed a bit strange.
We had just arrived when the enemy surrounded us.
In addition, Yan Qing had already concluded that there was a spy among them.
Now I think about the conversation between Princess Baili and Yan Qing, and their indignation when they mentioned Prince Ying Qi.
The truth seems to be about to come out!
As for motivation, there is no need to look for it deliberately.
Far in the sky, close in front of you.
Jiang Xiner!
In order to get Jiang Xiner, the prince wanted to kill someone with a borrowed knife and get rid of his love rival Yan Qing without anyone knowing.
As for him and his brothers, they were just buried with him.
After getting this answer, Lu Wenqing suddenly felt his hands and feet go cold.
He has followed the prince for ten years and has always been loyal. Even if he has not made any contributions, he has worked hard.
But no one expected that the prince would disregard the overall situation for the sake of a woman, secretly communicate with the enemy, and kill people with a borrowed knife.
He was even treated as a pawn and ruthlessly abandoned.
Just thinking about it made him feel chilled to the bone.
Li Changsheng noticed all the changes in Lu Wenqing's expression.
And this is exactly the result he wanted.
If he told Lu Wenqing and the others the truth right from the start, he would point the finger directly at Prince Ying Qi.
They will definitely not believe it, and may even find various reasons to excuse it.
But if we let them use their own imagination to deduce the results based on the existing clues.
As long as the result is logically consistent and has no obvious loopholes, they will take it for granted and believe it without a doubt.
"Okay, without further ado, let's get out of here!"
Li Changsheng calmly patted the herbs in his hand and spoke.
Now he has become the backbone of the team.
Naturally, everyone will have no objection to this.
After walking for dozens of miles, they passed by the bank of the Bian River.
Li Changsheng suddenly pulled the reins and warned, "Someone is coming from the front!"
Upon hearing this, Lu Wenqing immediately dismounted.
He lay on the ground and listened carefully.
In an instant, his expression became very solemn.
"Oh no! It looks like there are hundreds of cavalrymen heading our way!"
When they heard that there were hundreds of cavalrymen, everyone looked pale.
Judging from their current condition, all of them are injured. If they meet him on the way, they will definitely be in great danger.
Li Changsheng made a prompt decision and ordered: "We have too many wounded here, and the enemy outnumbers us. We should not engage in battle!"
"How about this, hide first and wait and see what happens!"
