Chapter 315, Pursuit
Liao Yong didn't expect that Liu Nianju would go and return, knowing that Mu Xuanlie had the token of the Qin Palace, that is, the general who guarded the city, and it was not good to block the door and prevent them from leaving the city. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
But this Lord Liu is different, although his identity is not as good as the two of them, he is a parent official, and he has real power and can be impeached, so the two have to dismount and salute each other.
"Lord Liu moved so quickly, and then he returned home, so he rushed back again." Liao Yong was telling him that he already knew what happened at the city gate just now. And lest Lord Liu take care of it.
"The subordinate is just a hard life. Before the curfew, I received a wire report, saying that there was a sudden sound of horses in the Cangshan area outside the city, and I didn't dare to make a mistake for a moment, so I gathered people and horses out of the city overnight. I heard that my subordinates came to report that Liao Shizi and Young Master Mu were going out of the city, so they rushed to see each other off. ”
"I don't know if the two adults went out of the city overnight, but what is the urgency, do you need the lower officials to mobilize people to help?"
This Liu Nianju is worthy of being a staff member of the Yan Wangfu, and a few words covered up the past just now.
Mu Xuanlie and Liao Yong have been reported that someone left the city overnight. Only then did the two of them send someone to check outside the courtyard of Lu Chongyu's temporary residence, but they found that the person they sent to keep an eye on them had long since disappeared. guessed that the person who went out of the city might be Lu Chongyu.
Or the people and horses sent by Lu Chongyu to move the rescue soldiers, so they took people out of the city to stop the robbery.
"I just received a letter from home, and there is an urgent matter in the house, so I was summoned to return home as soon as possible. My father has a life, so I have to obey, and I ask Lord Liu to make it convenient. ”
This Liao Yong is not a mediocre talent, and under the pretext of private affairs, he politely refused Liu Nianju to send someone to follow. said again that it was an urgent matter, so Liu Nianju had to open the door.
"It was an urgent matter in the Deqing Marquis Mansion, and the lower officials immediately ordered the city gate to be opened. Someone came with the official to send the two adults out of the city. ”
"Even more profound, the two adults are out of the city at this time, and the lower officials are really uneasy. I also asked the two adults to allow the official to send it to the Ten Mile Pavilion outside the city. ”
No matter how Liao Yong and the others refused, Liu Nianju insisted on sending each other. The face of flattery and dedication, in fact, just wanted to slow down the speed of Liao Yong and the two to catch up.
This Liao Yong saw that it was not easy to refuse, so he had to secretly make a gesture to the attendant, he and Mu Xuanlie accompanied Liu Zhixian, and half of his subordinates went to pursue.
Liu Nianju was anxious, but he had done his best. It's not good to break your face with these two. With his official position, even if he turns his face with these two people, he can't be retained.
I can only pray to Lu Chongyu and them, hurry up, and don't rest halfway.
Lu Ruxue and his entourage, of course, would not rest as soon as they left the city, and drove for two hours in a row, until the horses were tired, and then they had to rest for a while.
Lu Ruxue rarely galloped like this, and for a while she was really a little unbearable, and the people who got off the horse were a little shaking, and the gastric juice was stirred and nauseated.
Fortunately, I carried the medicine box on my back and took a pill, so I felt better.
"Miss Lu, let's rush all the way, it's far away from Yi County, it's better to rest for a while, and it's not too late to hurry when it's dawn."
Jian Sui was worried about Miss Lu's body, in case he escaped the crisis, but he was tired and sick, and the young master would not spare him.
"Sit for another quarter of an hour and continue to hurry, if you don't enter the capital, there will be no peace." Lu Ruxue confessed and closed her eyes.
The guards who were traveling with him couldn't help but glance at the future young master's wife. At the beginning, the young master ordered them to make a military order and follow Jian Sui to protect the young lady of the Lu Mansion. To say that they have no resentment at all is self-deception.
But after following the young lady of the Lu Mansion for a long time, I gradually realized that the young lady of the Lu Mansion was very different from the young lady in the inner courtyard of the ordinary boudoir. is low-key, and he does not lose to men, so they can't help but admire it.
And what happened today made them understand why the young master would rather earn military merits in the first place, and also asked for Miss Lu Fu to be his wife, it turned out that it was not just to win over Mrs. Lu, but also to take a fancy to Miss Lu.
Lu Ruxue did these things casually, but she didn't want these people to completely change their opinion of her.
A quarter of an hour later, Lu Chongyu had also retreated from his official clothes and changed into regular clothes, so he came close to help his sister get up. "Ruxue, it's better to rest for a while, your face is not very good."
By the light of the fire, Lu Chongyu found that his sister's face was a little pale, and he wanted to urge his sister to hurry, so he changed his words to persuade her to rest more.
"It's okay, it's just that I'm not used to it, it's good to ride a little longer."
After leaving the city, Lu Ruxue felt her heart beat faster for no reason, and the farther away she was from Deyi County, the more uneasy she became. So I just want to rush back to the capital as soon as possible, and I don't want to stay here longer.
And she ordered to change into her official clothes, because she was worried that once she was caught up, she didn't want to burden Lord Liu. It is not easy for the Yanwang Mansion to install a dark pile here.
"If you can't hold on, you must talk to the same brother. Let's hide. Lu Chongyu also sensed that danger was approaching. But he cared more about his sister, and when he saw that Lu Ruxue was uncomfortable, he also became nervous.
"Good!" Lu Ruxue nodded in response, and the group got on their horses again and rushed south.
This time, it was not until dawn that the horse stopped to rest. "How long will it take to enter Beijing?"
Lu Ruxue called Jian Sui and asked carefully, if it is already bright today, Mu Xuanlie should also get the news, she only hopes that before entering Beijing, she will not encounter their pursuit.
But she didn't know that not long after she left the city, Mu Xuanlie and Liao Yong also came out of the city.
If she hadn't been on the road all night, I was afraid that they would have caught up with her an hour earlier.
"If the journey remains the same, it will be there in three days at the latest." Jian Sui didn't dare to say it explicitly, if there was no Lu Ruxue, they would not have been able to reach Jingshi in less than two days. An extra day was added to take into account her body.
"Three days!" At the speed of life and death, one more moment is more dangerous, let alone three days. Jian Sui didn't say anything, but Lu Ruxue understood that she had become a drag on these people. It's only my own body that blames me for missing exercise.
Glancing at the way they came, maybe tomorrow, their group will be overtaken. She didn't dare to think about it, but she had to think about it.
Lu Ruxue blamed herself in her heart, but Jiansui, the guards, never regarded Miss Lu as a burden. You must know that it is Xu Zhuying, the young lady of the Wei State Mansion, and her equestrian skills may not be able to catch up with Miss Lu, who is going all out.
After a brief meal, the group began to hurry again. In front of me was a small river, the river was not wide, but the current was very fast, and there was a wooden bridge over the river.
"Brother, do you know where this is?" Although she had also walked through here when she came, Lu Ruxue didn't remember it a little.
"After this Surabaya River, it is Surabaya County, and you will enter Yingtian after one more day." Jian Sui saw that Lu Chongyu was also at a loss, so he spoke back for him.
"Come on, let's work harder!" Lu Ruxue had a feeling that as long as they crossed Surabaya, they would be safe. She didn't know why she felt this way, maybe it was just a woman's sixth sense.
