Chapter 376 Leaving Beijing

The emperor refused to listen to anyone's advice and insisted on leaving Beijing.

And he was going to leave immediately.

There was not much time left for everyone to prepare.

While the emperor ordered people to go back to the palace to bring the director of the Imperial Hospital, Commander Pang quickly arranged the accompanying imperial guards. In addition to horses, dry food and water bags were also prepared.

The emperor's words just now were not discussed with him. Knowing that he could not dissuade him, King Dingyuan could only arrange guards for Ling Chu to accompany him.

Fortunately, he learned that the emperor was going to Xuanqing Temple, and King Dingyuan was a little relieved.

The princess hurried over after hearing the news, complained to the prince in a low voice, and hurriedly ordered people to prepare things for Ling Chu to go out.

Ling Chu had no objection to leaving Beijing.

She was thinking about going to Xuanqing Temple to take a look, and she didn't know whether Xuanyi Zhenren and her brothers had returned to the temple. Xuanyi Zhenren raised the original owner, and she inherited her body. If she could take this opportunity to repay her master, it would be great.

The emperor knew that Ning Chuchu was running out of time, and he wanted to rush to Xuanqing Temple immediately.

In order to save time, the emperor did not plan to take a carriage, but to ride a horse.

Ling Chu naturally could not take a carriage, and in order not to hold back, she did not even take her maid with her.

She hurriedly took off her grand dress for the coming of age ceremony, changed into a light set of clothes, took two sets of clothes prepared by the princess for her, as well as dry food, snacks and water bags, and immediately set off with the team.

Prince Dingyuan was left by the emperor to assist the prince in supervising the country, and could not accompany him, so he could only find Ning Chuyi.

"Sir Ning, I hope you can help take care of my daughter when you are away."

"Don't worry, your highness, the princess is still a member of my Jinyiwei, and I will do my best to protect her."

With Ning Chuyi's assurance, Prince Dingyuan was at least relieved.

The princess was worried.

The happiest person for the emperor to leave Beijing was the prince.

The prince didn't know why the emperor wanted to leave Beijing suddenly, and he didn't care.

He only knew that he had been looking forward to it for so many years, and finally he could sit on the throne.

Although he was only acting as regent, his father did not choose the second prince, which showed that in his father's mind, he, the prince, was the next emperor.

As soon as the emperor left Beijing, the prince couldn't wait to return to the palace to sit on the throne.

The emperor did not tell the queen about his departure from Beijing. When she received the news, she was so angry that she smashed a set of expensive tea cups, and then asked people to find out the reason why the emperor left Beijing.

...

Ling Chu rode on the horse's back, bumping all the way, and felt that his internal organs were displaced.

Not only was his stomach empty, but his throat was about to smoke.

The cold wind in December blew on his face, like a knife. Although he was wearing thick clothes, the skin on the inside of his legs was also rubbed painfully.

They had been traveling for three days in a row.

Since leaving Beijing, the emperor has been rushing as hard as he could. Except for stopping for a quarter of an hour to rest, eat some dry food, drink water and solve personal physiological problems, the rest of the time was on the road.

It was not until it was dark and the road could not be seen clearly that they would find a place to stop and rest.

The next day, they opened their eyes, ate a few mouthfuls of dry food to fill their stomachs, and started a new day of traveling.

Everyone was worried that the emperor was exhausted and advised him not to rush on the road so recklessly, but the emperor did not listen.

Except for Duke Ningguo, no one knew why the emperor was so anxious and insisted on rushing to Xuanqing Temple as soon as possible regardless of his dragon body.

Ling Chu sighed in her heart. If it were not for the fact that the princess asked the cook to make all kinds of delicious food for her every day some time ago, and the King of Dingyuan brought all kinds of supplements from the palace every few days to nourish her body.

In addition, when the third brother returned to Beijing to save her last time, he brought her the health-care medicine prepared by the second brother for her, she would have collapsed long ago.

Ling Chu suddenly felt a chill on her face.

She looked up and raindrops were floating in the sky.

After a quick guess, it was about the time of You. It gets dark early in winter, and with the rain, the sky was getting darker.

Ling Chu frowned, and suddenly felt a little uneasy.

She controlled the reins with her left hand, ready to use her right hand to calculate.

Because she was following the emperor, she would take time to calculate when she rested after leaving the capital to avoid accidents.

But.

I don’t know if it was because she calculated others but not herself, or for some other reason.

She calculated many times, but found that the hexagrams were different each time.

Not only was it unpredictable, but it was also like a fog.

She couldn’t calculate anything specific.

Just like today, she only calculated that it would rain.

But she didn’t calculate whether it would rain heavily or lightly, or when it would rain.

This was something that had never happened before.

However, although she didn’t calculate the details, she also told the emperor during the midday break that it would rain today.

But the emperor didn’t care about the rain.

Before he ascended the throne, the emperor had fought on the battlefield and had experienced wind and rain.

A little wind and rain could not stop his determination to hurry on.

Ling Chu was concentrating on calculating, trying to see if there was any danger ahead, and for a moment he did not have time to look at the road.

The horse under him had been driving for three consecutive days and was extremely tired. When passing a deep pit about one foot in size, it failed to avoid it in time.

The right front hoof stepped into it.

The horse neighed and fell forward.

It was running at full speed, and Ling Chu only used her left hand to pull the reins. She was caught off guard and was thrown out from the horse's back.

Ning Chuyi was in front of her on the right. Seeing that she did not catch up, she was worried and turned back to check.

Just then she saw Ling Chu being thrown away.

His face changed, and Ning Chuyi quickly jumped off the horse's back and grabbed her with his long arms.

Just managed to catch Ling Chu.

The accompanying guards were frightened and broke into a cold sweat.

Only then did they feel a sense of fear.

After three days of traveling out of the capital, they saw that Ling Chu had been following the team closely. The initial worry had long gone and they relaxed their vigilance.

But they forgot that the princess was just a girl, not a guard like them who lived on the edge of a knife.

Fortunately, Lord Ning saved her. If something happened, they would not be able to explain to the prince and princess.

Ling Chu was also really shocked just now. If it weren't for Lord Ning, even if she didn't die from the fall, she would probably be disabled.

After Ning Chuyi put her down, she immediately bowed and thanked him, "Thank you for saving me."

Ning Chuyi lowered his eyes to look at her and said in a light voice, "You're welcome. I promised the prince to protect you."

The emperor was in front of the team, and they didn't notice what was happening behind them. Seeing that the people ahead had gone far away, Ning Chuyi said, "Let's hurry on."

Ling Chu nodded, "Okay."

Turning around and trying to get on the horse, she found that the horse was already foaming at the mouth and lying motionless on the ground.

Ling Chu was a little worried. Her horse was dead. Others also rode one horse each, and there was no extra horse to replace her.

The accompanying guards were also in trouble. Although their mounts had good endurance and physical strength, they had been running for three consecutive days and were now at the end of their strength.

Ning Chuyi quickly scanned the circle and found that only his snow-walking condition was still good. Even the horses ridden by Wei Feng and Yin Sha were exhausted.

Pursing his lips and hesitating for a while, Ning Chuyi climbed on the horse.

A slender and powerful hand reached out to Ling Chu, "Get on."

Ling Chu raised her eyes, and in the night, Ning Chuyi was looking down at her.

The sound of horse hooves in front was fading away. It was dark and raining heavily. Ling Chu knew that she could not drag her feet any longer.
