Chapter 341: Customs Clearance
Yan Yuan also laughed and said, "I didn't plan to leave! But Lord Wang, your good days are coming to an end... It's still my bargain!"
Prince Rong looked dazed, "What do you say?"
Yan Yuan said with a smile: "Because His Highness is about to get out of danger safely, his first move is to eradicate you, a treacherous minister who poses a threat to him!"
Prince Rong's expression changed immediately when he heard this, "What, are you going to let him go?"
Yan Yuan said: "Naturally, you want to let him go, didn't you send someone to rescue him? At that time, they may take the opportunity to kill His Highness...... My men will not only release him, but also protect him. You say, with the temperament of the sixth prince, will he still trust you?"
Prince Rong was furious, "Yan Yuan, you are so despicable, you actually resorted to such a trick?"
Yan Yuan said leisurely: "I'm doing it, is what you are doing is a righteous gentleman?" Joke-" He flicked the whip in his hand as he spoke.
The front hooves of the horses that Prince Rong straddled on the other side jerked up sharply and neighed in pain.
Prince Rong didn't expect this guy to do what he said, and he didn't even say hello, he was angry and hurriedly grabbed the reins, and let out a cry in his mouth.
The horses will stop.
Prince Rong did not dismount, and directly rose from his horse and pounced towards Yan Yuan.
Without waiting for him to get close, Yan Yuan swept over with another whip.
In mid-air, Prince Rong's figure paused slightly, and the long knife flew up and slashed at the long whip again and again.
Yan Yuan's long whip was like a dragon, frequently shaking and raising the shadow of the whip in the sky.
Prince Rong has been in the army for many years, so he is naturally not a soft-footed shrimp, once the two of them hand each other, it will be difficult to distinguish the winner in a short period of time, and others will not be able to intervene. But seeing the shadow of the whip, the sword flashing, and occasionally mixed with violent snorting.
Of course, the whirlwind guards did not stop to watch the excitement, but each caught and killed each other, and fought and left.
Their purpose has been achieved, as long as they cross Cuiping Mountain, there will naturally be someone over there to answer.
Prince Rong didn't bring many soldiers and horses when he came out, and he had previously divided a part of it to go to the direction of Dayue Town, and although his soldiers and generals were powerful at this time, they were also inferior in the hands of the Whirlwind Guard's disciples.
The two struggled for a while, and Yan Yuan took the initiative to stop it, taking the opportunity to get on the horse and run towards the mountain.
As expected, the people of the Beiyi tribe have already set up an ambush on this mountain, and they will definitely help secretly in order to show their sincerity.
Prince Rong also seemed to see a little sign of it, and he didn't bring troops to chase him.
Therefore, Yan Yuan and his party ran more smoothly, and it didn't take long to catch up with Qin Guogong and others.
Qin Guogong took a breath and patted Yan Yuan's shoulder without saying anything.
In fact, there is nothing to say, at that time he had put life and death aside when he asked for his life in the court, there was an old wife and the third child in the capital, and the second and third children were guarded by the second and third children in Jinzhou's hometown, although there was a possibility of war in Yunzhou, but with Zheng'er and Yue'er, he was also at ease, and all the aftermath had been arranged, and he could go with confidence.
It's just that in the end, I still hope to return to my homeland...
Everyone rested and laughed for a while and continued on the road, knowing that there were many hurdles ahead of them.
Just halfway up the mountain, he saw a fortress tower in the distance, Yan Yuan raised his hand and shrugged back, and everyone paused and quietly hid into the bushes next to them.
In front of the fort tower, there is a two-zhang high Tie Lizi fence, the fort tower is manned day and night, and you can see the wind and grass within a radius of five miles in the distance.
Yan Yuan was not in a hurry, he believed that someone would take the initiative to find them.
Sure enough, a quarter of an hour later, a man from the mountains quietly appeared beside him, dressed as a hunter, carrying a small basket on his back, and a small arrow tip under the cover of the leaves inside, and a sunhat woven of leaves on his head, the brim of which was pressed low, making it difficult to see his face.
"How many of you want to pass?" asked the man in a hoarse voice.
Yan Yuan glanced at him, and then nodded, "Is it convenient for the eldest brother?"
The man in the mountains seemed to laugh and said, "Of course it's convenient, please come with me." ”
Like the old man in cloth, there is no politeness at all, and he is so straightforward in his words and deeds.
The men in the mountains seem to be accustomed to activities in this area, and they are very familiar with the terrain of Cuiping Mountain, so they take them around and around, walking through the woods, and soon bypassing the checkpoints of the Southern Yu Kingdom and detouring on the trail again.
However, in this way, everyone was tired and out of breath, especially the injured Qin Guogong and the unarmed Lord Lu.
The man in the mountain said: "This is this level, there are three more roads ahead, and someone will answer it then, so you can go with confidence." ”
Yan Yuan nodded hurriedly and thanked him.
Everyone thanked him one after another.
Although it is hard work, it is better than the danger of fighting the enemy to die.
The man in the mountains waved his hand at them stiffly, "You're welcome, the patriarch has an order, and you must let you pass the customs safely." After saying that, he patted his shirt and left.
The crowd rested for a while and continued on their way.
Sure enough, near the second level, I got the help of a man from the mountains in the same costume. The same goes for the third and fourth ways.
The men in the mountains not only took the initiative to lead the way, but also brought a lot of food, although it was a little rough, but for them who were in a hurry, it was tantamount to a delicacy.
Five or six days later, a group of people appeared outside Yunzhou City.
The sun is setting, the sunset is full of sky, and everyone's faces are flushed.
The wind blows in the early autumn wind, bringing a comfortable warmth.
Qin Guogong couldn't help laughing three times, "Haha, Yunzhou, I'm back!"
Yan Yuan's eyes also welled up with a smile, thinking that he was about to see the person he was thinking about day and night, and that he had finally fulfilled his mission and brought back Qin Guogong and Lord Lu safely.
As for Xiao Qian, he is already a dead man after this.
The Six Princes will definitely not let him go, and although Xiao Qian intends to join Prince Rong, Prince Rong will not accept him as easily as the Six Princes.
Those who are not of my race will have different hearts.
Anyone who has been on the battlefield will understand this.
In addition to this, mortal soldiers hate the two-faced villain who defects halfway.
Xiao Qian undoubtedly accounted for both of these points.
How could he still be alive?
Or, even the greater benefit of this would be the avoidance of the war.
Although the Dadu Dynasty was rich and the people were strong, it could not withstand the years of war, especially the battle of Tongzhou a year ago, which almost exhausted the national strength of the Dadu Dynasty.
In the end, all this is the trouble provoked by Xiao Qian.
With Mo Ming's excitement, the group couldn't wait to run towards Yunzhou City, and they couldn't even care about fatigue and pain.
In the distance, a few people stood on the city wall, waving small flags and cheering at them.
When the group came to the city, the drawbridge had already been lowered on the city wall, and a group of people rushed out of the open city gate, and in the blink of an eye, they came closer.
Qin Guogong fixed his eyes and saw that the leaders were Qin Zheng and Qin Yue, brother and sister.
He hurriedly stepped forward to hug the two of them, his throat choking slightly.
Qin Yue turned his head to look at Yan Yuan next to him, nodded and smiled at him.
She knew he would come back safely.
Yan Yuan also smiled at her, his wrapped hands slightly open.
