On the early morning of the second day, the secret guards sent the seal over. Yun Shang tried it on the paper and nodded, "Ordinary officials and people should not be able to tell whether it is real or not."
Yun Shang took the seal and went straight to the camp. After the seal was stamped on the secret decree and notice, she was about to go back.
Everything went smoothly along the way. More than 20 days later, Yun Shang finally arrived at the nearest city to Jin City.
"Master, the sun is scorching today. There is a forest halfway up the mountain. Let's have a rest in the forest." Qian Zhuo rode behind Yun Shang and asked loudly.
Yun Shang looked up at the dense forest on the hillside and nodded, "Okay. Let the horse have a rest and eat grass."
Soon they arrived at the dense forest and stopped.
Qian Zhuo took the water bag and handed it to Yun Shang, "It's just April. The sun is so hot. I'm afraid it will be a hot summer this year."
Yun Shang nodded slightly, "It doesn't matter. I just hope that there will be no drought. If there is a drought, the people will suffer again."
Yun Shang leaned against the big stone behind her and looked up at the sunlight that was pouring down from the cracks of the forest. She smiled slightly and said, "We'll be back in two days."
Qian Zhuo certainly knew what Yun Shang was thinking about. She smiled and said, "Yes, your majesty hasn't left the crown prince for such a long time, right? The crown prince must miss you. "
Yun Shang smiled, "He is so young. As long as someone treats him well and plays with him, he will completely forget me in a few days."
"How can you..."
Before Qian Zhuo finished her words, Yun Shang suddenly heard a loud noise, and even the ground beneath her feet trembled.
Yun Shang and the others all stood up.
"Your majesty..."
"It seems to be..."
Yun Shang pursed her lips and asked, "The sound of something exploding."
Then, there were several more loud sounds, and the ground was also shaking.
Everyone's face became more and more serious. "Your majesty, I'm afraid something is wrong. We have to abandon the horse and hurry up with Qinggong."
While the secret guards were talking, they quickly grabbed Yun Shang]'s arm, as if they were about to take her away directly.
Yun Shang bit her lips and said, "It's too late."
Yun Shang had heard the sound of stones rolling down. Judging from the sound just now, the whole mountain must have been buried with explosives. No matter how fast, it was impossible to escape.
It was her carelessness. When she helped Zhao Yingjie to deal with the State of Yelang with a fake secret order in the camp in Ganying City, some people might have already guessed it. In addition, she left Jin City two months ago. With the connection of these two things, it was easy to guess that she was the one who appeared in the camp.
There was more than one way to go back to Jin City from Ganying City, but this was the best and shortest way. She didn't want to take a detour because everything had been peaceful in the past more than 20 days, and she was too anxious to go back to the palace.
But she didn't expect that someone would set such a trap for her.
And... It seemed to be a perfect way...
Unless she had the ability to fly into the sky or hide underground, there was no way she could escape it.
