126 The golden cicada sheds its shell

Guohao galloped on horseback, in order to avoid burden, as soon as he arrived at the Tang River, he threw the remaining seven horses on the side of the road, and quickly rode the horses lightly, and just after noon, he rushed to Shangqiu Mansion.

He looked back at the back, and no one was chasing, and he touched the sweat on the horse's neck, and sighed: "It's a blessing or a curse, it's a disaster that can't be avoided, even if you run for your life, you must eat enough."

He jumped off his horse. Walked into the Bafang Inn on the side of the road, instructed the guys, feed the horses with fine grass, and then found a place by the window, and ordered a few servings of vegetarian dishes to munch on regardless of it.

After eating the fast, a wave of sleepiness came up, Shi Guohao was originally a person who lived today and did not say tomorrow, so he didn't care about the danger behind him, and asked the guy to find a clean private room for him, and fell asleep.

He slept until the time of the unitary, Guo Hao woke up from the dream, he called the water, washed up slowly, and then settled the fee, led the horse, just walked out of the inn, suddenly heard the sound of the horse's hooves behind him, he looked back, and suddenly his legs were weak, ah, the Ouchi guard rode the horse he threw on the side of the road to catch up.

Shi Guohao regretted for a while, he didn't choose the road at the beginning, so he left the horses on the side of the road, if he could be more calm, kill those horses, or cripple them, where is there still the disaster in front of him?

As soon as I thought of this, I quickly took a few sips, I am a monk, I have such a vicious idea, what face will I have to see the Buddha in the future?

The urgency of the situation no longer allowed him to think about it, so he flew on his horse and whipped him fiercely, and the red horse neighed and ran into the distance.

Those guards were anxious in their hearts, and they were tired and dizzy from running all the way, so they didn't find Guo Hao, but as soon as Guo Hao ran like this, the neighing of the war horse woke up these high rollers.

When they looked up, they were immediately in good spirits, and they chased after them with a shout.

Guo Hao chanted the blessing of the Buddha, while shaking the whip to urge the horse to run desperately, his jujube red horse had eaten forage, and rested for a few hours, it was the dragon and the tiger, and the horses of the guards, after a long run, were already exhausted, so just step together, Guo Hao threw the guards out of the distance.

The guards whipped the horses desperately, and the urging was tight, and a chrysanthemum fell to the ground and was exhausted to death.

The guards were helpless, so they took out the fireworks from their arms, and after igniting them, a flame shot straight into the clouds, and after a while, there were also four fireworks in front of them. Only then did the guards put their minds at ease, and they sent a signal on the way, asking the guards who were searching in other places to meet in Shangqiu, and once they were encircled, Guohao could not escape.

Shi Guohao saw that he got rid of the guards, secretly happy in his heart, he was running proudly, and suddenly saw five fireworks outside Shangqiu City rising into the air, and his heart suddenly sank, he has been in the palace for many years, and there are many guards who are his friends, so he knows the methods of the guards, and now he sees so many fireworks rising, which proves that it is not only the back team that is chasing him, but it may be the whole country. Around this Shangqiu, there were at least six soldiers and horses who rushed over.

Guo Hao's heart was flustered, and he didn't know where to escape in order to escape the catastrophe, he really couldn't think of it, he simply closed his eyes, and let him run blindly.

In desperation, the jujube red horse let out a dragon groan, and suddenly stood up with its front hooves and threw Guo Hao off the horse.

Guo Hao struggled on the ground for a while, forced himself to endure the sharp pain in his limbs, got up and looked around, only to see a military camp in front of him, outside the camp angry horses galloping back and forth, rows of soldiers with knives and guns, are entering the camp, looking at the situation seems to have just returned from drill. A dozen soldiers rushed forward under the leadership of a sentry commander.

They first surrounded the jujube red horse and admired it, and then pointed to Guo Hao and asked: "Monk, where did you get such a miraculous horse as a monk, quickly and truthfully recruit it, otherwise you will be punished as stealing military horses."

Guohao was stunned for a while, only to understand that the person in front of him was not the Ouchi guard, he accidentally bumped into it, and actually broke into the Shangqiu camp, his heart flashed, and suddenly remembered that the Shangqiu camp was Sony's troops, three years ago, the Shangqiu admiral went to the capital to meet Sony, and after Sony's recommendation, he had met with Shunzhi, and Guohao was also present at that time, and later Shunzhi ordered the three hundred muskets allocated to the Shangqiu camp, or Guohao and Sony's son Suo Etu escorted together.

Thinking of this, Guo Hao stretched out his hand and touched the holy decree that Shunzhi gave him to escape from the level, and secretly muttered in his heart: "I hope that everything that happened in Jingshi, there is no news here, so I can fish in troubled waters."

The sentry commander who led the team instructed the soldiers to take away the jujube red horse, and repeatedly told him to feed it well, and then offer it to the pipe belt later. and then prepare to capture Guohao and extinguish his mouth,

Guohao didn't dare to slack off, quickly took out the edict from his arms, and said softly: "I am Shi Guohao, the stand-in monk in front of the emperor, and now I am under the emperor's secret decree to meet the Shangqiu Admiral Mu Long'e, and there are important matters to discuss." Please let us know as soon as possible".

The sentry chief looked at Guo Hao in surprise, and he was stunned and didn't know what to do.

Guo Hao urged: "Hurry up and report, if you delay the emperor's major events, I'm afraid that your head will fall to the ground."

The sentry chief shuddered, and ran away,

After a while, three cannons rang out in the camp, and a large group of Goshha rushed out of the camp gate in two rows, standing on both sides like goose wings, and a fierce man in the middle, wearing a second-grade military general's uniform, strode out, and shouted as he walked: "Where is Master Guohao, the last general is polite"?

Shi Guohao forcibly suppressed the panic in his heart, and shouted in a trembling voice: "Master Mu, I haven't seen you for three years, but I still recognize the poor monk." It can be seen that the adult is a good man who values love and righteousness."

Mu Long's face was full of excitement, he took a few steps, grabbed Guohao's hand and shook it again and again, and said: "The master is a nobleman, it is very difficult for ordinary people to see you, today I personally came to my Shangqiu camp, I Lao Mu was flattered, I have asked the small kitchen to prepare a clean vegetarian fast, the master please, let Lao Mu also serve the living Buddha."

Shi Guohao's expression was solemn, and he said to Mu Long: "Lord Mu, I am under the emperor's secret decree and have a major matter to discuss with you, please retreat from the left and right people, and you and I will go to the secret room to talk."

Mu Long'er originally wanted to get close to Guohao, so that there would be someone to speak to in front of the emperor in the future, but now seeing that Guohao was so solemn, he hurriedly ordered Goshha: "Guard the door, without my military order, not even a fly is allowed to fly in."

Entered the secret room. Mu Long was about to make a big salute, but Guo Hao hurriedly pulled him and said: "Lao Mu, don't salute blindly, who will give it to whom? Although I have the emperor's secret decree, the emperor must not make a big deal of it."

Mu Long rubbed his hands and said uneasily: "Master, what is the emperor's will, please announce it."

Guo Hao took out the edict from his bosom and handed it to Mu Long,

Mu Long held the edict in both hands, only read the first line, and then knelt on the ground with a puff.

I saw that it was written: "The ministers of the ministries and the governors and generals of the provinces, when they see this secret edict, they are like me coming in person." My stand-in monk Shi Guohao was ordered to go out on business, and he fully cooperated and protected him.

Mu Long kowtowed on his forehead like pounding garlic, and repeatedly declared: "Minister, obey the order."

Then he stood up and bowed to Guo Hao and said, "Master, please command, how can I cooperate with you"?

Guo Hao took back the edict and said slowly: "After Azig's death, his subordinates were very unconvinced and plotted to rebel, although the emperor was aware of it, but their spies have infiltrated the palace, because everyone around me is suspicious, so the emperor asked me to take a secret decree to the provincial camps to check to see who is Azig's traitor and who is the emperor's loyal minister"?

Mu Long said repeatedly: "I am a loyal minister, I am a loyal minister, please tell the emperor, Shangqiu camp pillow Godandan, as long as the emperor gives an order, I will reach the Beijing division with 30,000 horses, and raise troops to serve the king."

Guo Hao nodded and said: "Very good, very good, Lord Mu is loyal and commendable, when I return to Beijing to report, the emperor will have a reward."

Mu Long's forehead happily turned around in place, and said with a smile: "Thank you master, thank you master, I will not forget the kindness of the master."

Guo Hao frowned and said, "Lord Mu, the poor monk is in some trouble now, and I ask my lord to help resolve it."

Mu Long's forehead was like a cow's egg, and he shouted: "That guy dares to trouble the master, I'll kill him."

Guo Hao pondered for a moment before saying, "These people are extraordinary, they were originally all Ouchi guards, and some of them may also be known to you. I met them on the way to Shangqiu, they smiled and talked to me, and asked me what I was doing when I went out of Beijing, and whose mission was it? Therefore, I suspected that they were the spies arranged by Azig before his death, and after dealing with them a few words, I turned my horse and ran, relying on the speed of the horse, and finally got rid of them, but as soon as I entered Shangqiu, there were fireworks in front of me, which was a secret sign for the Ouchi guards to communicate with each other, and only then did I understand that Azig's sworn friends had dispatched a large number of Ouchi guards to kill me, and their intention might be to prevent me from contacting the army to protect the emperor”。

Before Guo Hao finished speaking, Mu Long'e was already furious, and he shouted loudly: "This is Lao Tzu's territory, if I don't nod, who dares to find trouble?

As soon as the words fell, a report came from outside: "Lang Ying, the second rank of the imperial guard with a sword, asked to meet the general at the order of the Queen Mother, and is now waiting in the school field."

Mu Long's forehead glanced at Guo Hao suspiciously, and muttered: "I just received the holy decree, why do you have another decree? Could it be that the imperial court is really in chaos?"

Mu Long walked out of the secret room with his head held high, only to see more than forty guards with knives standing densely on the school grounds, all with their nostrils facing the sky.

Mu Long thought for a while, then stepped forward, and smiled at the second-grade guard who hit the head: "Brother Lang, the year before last, you came to pass the decree, we were very happy when we got drunk, this time I came to Shangqiu, why don't you say it in advance, I will be ready to pick up the wind for you."

Lang Ying's face was pale and uncertain, he gritted his teeth and said in a heavily pressed voice: "Shangqiu Admiral Mu Long's forehead receives the order"
