The Submissive Emperor - Chapter 62
“Leave two people looking for them around here, and the others will continue on their way tomorrow.” Xiao Chengjun did not ask Lou Jing’s opinion, and gave the order directly.
Yun Jiu raised his head in surprise, “Thank you for being lenient, but…” I should have followed up as a guard if I lost it. There is no reason for others to find it.
Lou Jing waved his hand, “Just do as your Royal Highness said.” Last night, it was really dangerous. He and Xiao Chengjun were connected to each other and almost died, but he felt that You Yunwei should not be so bad. This is the treasure left by his grandfather. , He is not willing to be compromised.
Yun Jiu couldn’t hide his joy, bowed and retired, and went out to discuss the manpower left with Yun Yi.
“This matter should not be the work of the assassins in Beijing.” Xiao Chengjun moved his hand to Lou Jing’s butterfly bone, where there was a large bruise, and the blue and purple marks tended to turn black. It looked very distressing. The movements on his hands are also lighter.
Lou Jing hugged his husband’s waist and squinted his eyes with enjoyment. This kind of injury is not a big deal to him, but the opportunity is rare. You have to eat enough tofu. “Which way did they go in Anshun?”
It stands to reason that Xiao Chengjun’s move to get rid of the golden cicada should have been concealed from the people who followed, so this time it was someone else who was attacking them.
“They walked east of Jiangzhou, from Xuanyang to Minzhou.” Xiao Chengjun frowned slightly.
Xunyang is to the west of Jiangzhou, not the nearest road to Minzhou, and Linjiang Hezui is not easy to bend. As the prince of the feudal clan, those who are big and small will definitely choose the smoothest road, so Anshun and the others went that way “according to common sense”. Xuanyang and Xunyang went three hundred miles away, and the assassins would never chase them.
There was no clue about crossing the river. The two of them stopped thinking about it for the time being. They hugged each other and rested on the bed for a day, and then left for Jiuchang County the next day.
The whole Jiangzhou is divided into four counties, south, north, and west. The west four counties are adjacent to the Bashu area, and the land is barren. The south four counties are adjacent to the Minzhou and Lingnan areas, and there are many mountains and mountains. Jiuchang county is the largest of the four south counties. The military barracks of Nansi County and Jiuchang County are also at the junction of Jiuchang and neighboring counties.
Although Lou Jing came out to find a husband, the emperor still had to do the errands given by the emperor. Therefore, the two of them had to go to Jiuchang Barracks to order a mao so that everyone knew that he, the Zhennan general, was here, so that they could follow Xiao Chengjun. Go to Minzhou to eat sea fish.
After crossing the river, there were not many refugees. Everyone walked smoothly. There were also tea sheds and food stalls on the official road.
“Does your arm hurt?” Xiao Chengjun reined his horse and asked You Yunwei to go to the tea shed to pour some tea.
“It doesn’t hurt.” Lou Jing was very comfortable leaning against His Royal Highness Min Wang. Because he couldn’t ride a horse because of his arm injury, they would ride a horse together. Fortunately, Lou Jing’s sweaty BMW and Xiao Chengjun’s green horses were both A good horse, the two camel are not tired.
“Master, this place is only twenty miles away from Jiuchang City.” Yunba asked the owner of the tea stall about the route, and said back.
“Then go to the city and eat again,” Xiao Chengjun asked You Yunwei to mount, touched a piece of dry food in his bag and handed it to Lou Jing, “If you are hungry, eat one first.”
Lou Jing opened his mouth to grab the browned biscuits, took a bite happily, and Xiao Chengjun placed him between his arms. Xiao Chengjun shook the reins lightly, and the sweaty BMW under him spun off his hoofs and ran.
Even if it is almost the city of Jiuchang, there are still mountains on both sides of the official road. With the green mountains and green waters, accompanied by Ying Yan and Yan Mum, it is a bit of a pleasure to play in the spring. However, the biscuits hadn’t been eaten yet, and the sweaty BMW suddenly neighed and stood up, and the biscuits flew out immediately.
Xiao Chengjun yanked on the reins with one hand and wrapped Lou Jing’s waist with the other to prevent him from falling.
This is a small road sandwiched between two mountains. Suddenly two rows of wide stones appeared on the road, blocking the road tightly. If it hadn’t been reined in time, the horse would almost fall.
“Can you see clearly, are these people?” a shirtless eight-foot man, grabbed a thin, ragged man, and pointed at Xiao Chengjun with the nine-ring sword in his hand.
“That’s them…” The man who was grabbed by the collar said shiveringly.
“Your Excellency stopped me, what’s the point?” Yun Yice immediately went forward, and Yun Shisan and Yun Shisi also went forward at the same time, protecting Xiao Chengjun and Xiao Chengjun behind him.
“Slow-winded, let me ask you, on the night four days ago, were you in the Chenghuang Temple thirty miles out of Xunyang City?” A golden circle hung around the big man’s neck, shining in the noon sun.
As soon as the voice fell, dozens of people swarmed up all around, all wearing sleeveless shorts, holding swords and sticks, fierce and evil.
Xiao Chengjun was taken aback. He carefully looked at the thin man who was held in his hands by the big man. He looked familiar, and he must have been a refugee who had taken refuge in the Chenghuang Temple!
“I don’t know what the heroes mean. If you want to pass money,” Yun said like a veteran of the world, he stretched out his thumb and pressed his chest. Price, let’s discuss it.”
Yun Jiu glanced at Yun Yi, who had suddenly become an **** teacher, winked at Yun Twelve and Yun Liu, and the two moved back a few steps knowingly, and held the bow hanging on the victory hook in their hands.
“I don’t want money today, it’s to my death!” The big man threw the refugee in his hand aside, raising the nine-ring sword and shouting loudly.
“Old fourth, keep the beauty in that little white face in his arms.” A grim-faced man jumped off the high stone and patted the big man on the shoulder.
Xiao Chengjun’s face suddenly sank when he heard the words. He stretched out his hand and drew out the Chixiao Sword at his waist. He dared to covet his princess. He deserved to die!
“Humph,” the big man, known as the fourth oldest, glanced at Lou Jing who was nestled in Xiao Chengjun’s arms with disdain, “Brothers, keep the Rabbit Master, and I will chop up the rest!”
The bandits all around heard the words and rushed over with shouts.
Yun Twelve and Yun Liu jumped off their horses in an instant, jumped onto the steep slopes on both sides of the road as light as a swallow, drew their bows and arrows, and shot towards the two leaders.
The man with the knife leaned sideways to avoid, the Jiuhuan knife quickly blocked the flying arrows, making a crisp collision sound, and was immediately irritated. His head.
The big man avoided it, raised his knife to block it, was scratched on his shoulder, and immediately fought with Yun. Yun Yi didn’t expect that a person who only practiced foreign kungfu would have such a great sword strength that he could fight him with brute force.
The person who coveted Lou Jing was not so lucky. He was shot through the chest by the sword of Yun Liuyi, and Xiao Ling exclaimed “Second Master” and quickly pulled him aside.
Youyun Sixteen Guards was not on the battlefield this time. Without long weapons, they suffered a lot in close combat. They jumped off their horses, protected Xiao Chengjun and Lou Jing in the middle, and slashed and killed the bandits.
Mountain bandits are mostly people who fall into the grass, and not many people who really understand kung fu, to You Yunwei, it is like cutting melons and vegetables, but there are so many people that they can’t kill them.
“Retreat all, hit the stone!” The old fourth used the copper ring on the knife to pinch Yun Yi’s thin knife, and shouted at the horribly killed young people.
Those little guys were really fighting and retreating to the steep slope. Lou Jing saw that the situation was wrong, and he held the rein with one hand, and suddenly turned the horse’s head. The sweaty BMW jumped up and ran up the steep **** to the east. At the same time, a lot of cobblestones were rumbling down on the western slope, and the Youyun Guards rushed up the steep **** instantly like ghosts, chasing and killing those who put the stones.
Xiao Chengjun hugged Lou Jing and jumped off his horse, and stood still on the high stone erected by Yun Twelve. Some people rushed to this side, and they were all shot and killed by Yun Twelve.
“Go to the boss for help!” Although the Jiuhuan knife is heavy, Yun Yi’s knife is very tricky and fast. The big man named the fourth has already been scratched several times on his body, and he is entangled by that tarsal maggot. The endless swordsmanship yelled with anger, still indomitable, yelling at the heights for people to move rescue soldiers.
“Bold!” At this moment, there was a loud shout not far away, and a group of people dressed in veteran costumes ran towards this side.
“The officers and soldiers are here!” the little ones shouted, and began to flee in all directions.
The person who hit an arrow was rushed up the mountain by his subordinates. He was hit by an arrow from Yun Liuyi and fell to his knees. The little boy screamed in fright and left him and ran away.
“Ah—” The fourth eldest roared, and lifted Yun Yi’s knife with all his strength, fighting the danger of being chopped by Yun Yi, and rushing towards Xiao Chengjun regardless.
Xiao Chengjun raised his sword to block the heavy knife, Lou Jing raised his leg and kicked him down.
The big man stumbled on the ground and didn’t want to fight. He rolled over and rode a horse and ran. Yun Twelve drew his bow, and an arrow towards the man’s back. The clinker seemed to have eyes behind him. Dodging arrows on horseback, turning on the path, disappeared.
Several of You Yunwei’s horses were injured by rocks. The first thing everyone was to protect their masters, they didn’t chase them anymore.
Those officers and soldiers who were late to arrive, caught the man who hit the arrow in the knees, and a few of them who were not able to run. They were tightly bound. Yunba immediately approached these officers and soldiers, and explained that they were innocently robbed. Passersby.
After listening to Yunba’s words, the one in the lead turned and shook his fist at Xiao Chengjun, “We are government officials of Jiuchang County. We pass by here to do errands. We also ask the son and the guards to wait with me for a visit to the yamen, so that we can go with the county guard. Cross business.”
Jiuchang County Governor? Lou Jing’s eyebrows twitched. Isn’t that Yang Xingyang’s adult who wants to send her daughter to the Anguo government’s side room? I almost forgot. He had to help his father to urge the marriage when he came out this time!
“But did you just touch your arm?” Xiao Chengjun frowned upon seeing Lou Jing’s expression wrong.
Lou Jing shook his head and whispered in Xiao Chengjun’s ear: “I just have something to see the county guard.”
Xiao Chengjun nodded slightly, and said to the servant, “If this is the case, let’s go to the county mansion.”
