At dawn, Duanmu Xu and Zhao Luojia had already ridden back to the east bank of Luoshui, but they did not see the camp of the Golden Horde, only the traces of the fire burning and camp in the wilderness. Where did the Golden Horde go so quickly?

Fortunately, because of the rain, I could clearly see the messy horseshoe prints and wheel prints heading north.

Why go north? Duanmu Xu and Zhao Luojia didn't have a clue. And what about the three guards? They don't know.

For now, we can only follow these imprints to the north. Without much thought, the two followed north.

The sky gradually became brighter, turning from gray to morning light, perhaps because of the rain last night, which made this morning quite pleasant. But Fan Lu didn't care about the warm morning light, and didn't even call Pan Zhiyan on the way, but hurried to Tai'an Town with the Tingzhou soldiers.

After a night of rain, the traces of yesterday's fire on the bridge have faded a lot, but the traces of camping on the east bank are still clearly visible.

Fan Lu didn't believe that Zhao Luojia and the others had fallen into the hands of the enemy like this, but there was no trace of them at this time. If they want to flee, they will naturally flee east, but they don't meet along the way. As a last resort, Fan Lu led a group of people across Luoshui and came to Tai'an Town, wanting to find out some more news, maybe the residents who had been frightened all night by the war found something.

There was indeed a discovery, and it was a big discovery, when Fan Lu came to Tai'an Town with some people, he found that a group of people were in a hurry to flee west.

Li Dabeard sighed again, "bad luck". Last night, after the rain had stopped, he ordered to continue east. After dawn, I came to a place where I could settle down and even exchange some loot.

I never thought that the front foot had just fallen, and a group of officers and soldiers came from the other side of Luoshui, seeing that this posture was not an ordinary official errand, but a real imperial army. Although he wanted to pick up property on the battlefield, it was not a real sword and a real gun and the army of the imperial court. He is self-aware, and he, the Li family, is indeed far behind.

Seeing a group of officers and soldiers coming across the bridge, he ordered to withdraw first. It's a pity that the withdrawal was not fast enough, after all, there were still those picked up horses, and they were discovered.

When he turned around and saw that the other party's men and horses were not too many, Li Dabeard even had the idea of whether to fight or not, but when he looked at the officers and soldiers who continued to come on the other side, he immediately dispelled this terrible thought, and only wanted to give up his wealth to eliminate the disaster.

He looked at a man who looked like a scholar, who was standing in front of the officers and soldiers, constantly looking at himself, thinking about when the white-faced general appeared.

Fan Lu saw Li Dabeard not far away, and naturally recognized it. At the beginning, it was planted in the hands of this person, and the belongings on his body were looted, but he never thought that he would run into it here. However, although there is an old feud, now I have to find out some news from this person.

"Bearded Li, do you still recognize me?" Fan Lu shouted.

"This prince is full of heaven and the earth is round, he must be a figure from the prime minister's family, where is the small people blessed to recognize it. "Li Dabeard really doesn't remember knowing this person.

"On the west side of Daqi Mountain, there was a fate. Thinking that he was just a nameless one of the countless robberies of this person, Fan Lu also felt that his face was gloomy.

Li Dabeard really thought about it seriously, this person's questions were naturally encountered with him, if he was friendly at that time, then the situation is easy to solve now.

He really remembered something, but it wasn't a scene of drinking and talking at the beginning, but robbing the scholar in front of him, and now it's really a narrow road, and he meets here. It seems that you can't rob scholars in the future, because once these scholars make a fortune and become officials in the court, they just look for reasons to trouble themselves.

Although Li Dabeard secretly regretted it, he couldn't admit it verbally, otherwise the topic would not be able to continue. "This son forgive me, we are all horse dealers who keep to themselves, although we have also traveled from south to north, but we really haven't been to the area of Daqi Mountain. However, on the road, I heard that there were indeed robbers all the way, and there was a man named Li Kui, with a big beard, I don't know if the son confessed his mistake. ”

Fan Lu thought that this person was really fun, not only did he not admit it, but he would also take the opportunity to transfer it to someone else who didn't need it. "Li Kui, if you don't want my army to directly exterminate your rabble, I have a few questions for you, and you can answer honestly. ”

Since the other party has already said this, and he has not ordered the fight as soon as he comes, maybe there is really any question that will be asked to himself, could it be those Golden Horde soldiers? After making up his mind in his heart, Li Dabeard clenched his fists and said, "Childe, please speak." ”

Fan Lu rode away from the officers and soldiers and motioned for Li Dabeard to follow.

"Li Huzi, when did you arrive in this Tai'an Town?" Fan Lu remembered that there were no such people when he settled in Tai'an Town.

"Yesterday, after a big battle with the Golden Horde outside the gate of Zhongnan Mountain, we followed the Golden Horde in this direction, and it rained on the way, a little slower, and we arrived after dawn. Li Dabeard specifically mentioned the chance encounter with the Golden Horde at Zhongnan Mountain, of course, directly exaggerating the battle between the two armies.

Sure enough, as he expected, Fan Lu was quite interested in this, "You met the Golden Horde in Zhongnan Mountain?"

"yes. Of course, we really had to break a lot of men and horses to barely drive the enemy away, and then we didn't give up, and we followed. "It's a good fight for the country, and of course Li Dabeard took the opportunity to put gold on his face, hoping to escape this catastrophe.

Fan Lu didn't want to waste any more time on this issue, knowing that asking again would just be to hear the other party's exaggeration. "After arriving in Tai'an Town, what did you find?" this is what Fan Lu really cares about.

"We have just settled in this Tai'an town, and in a short time you will come from the other side. Thinking of this, Li Dabeard felt quite aggrieved. I don't know if the horses and possessions that came to me this time will be saved.

Seeing that this Li bearded man didn't seem to be lying, Fan Lu frowned slightly, where did the princess go.

Fan Lu's frown made Li Dabeard mistakenly think that this person was dissatisfied with his reply, and added, "We have indeed just arrived in Tai'an Town, and those horses are indeed the Golden Horde cavalry. The thought of the good horses that might be about to leave him hurts him.

Fortunately, taking Li Fanlu's words made Li Dabeard a lot easier, as long as he didn't give up these belongings, what would it matter if he did something.

Fan Lu instructed, "Back in Daqishan, Fan was earnestly taught by Chief Li, and this time he should have returned them one by one. But if Leader Li can lead his subordinates to the north along this Luoshui, and investigate the whereabouts of five people, four men and one woman, two of whom are Taoist priests of Zhongnan Mountain. Then I'm not to blame for the past. ”

Li Dabeard hurriedly replied, "Thank you Gongzi for his magnanimity, I will definitely order my subordinates to investigate more." ”

"As soon as there is news, immediately send someone to Tingzhou to report. "Fan Lu is also in a hurry to go to the doctor, and if he can arrange more people to listen, he will arrange as much as possible, regardless of whether he is an officer or a robber.

When Li Dabeard heard this, he was a little anxious. Isn't that a self-throwing trap? That is the station of the envoy of the Beiting Festival, his voice is much weaker, and he asks tentatively, "Do you want to go to Tingzhou?"

Fan Lu heard his tone, and immediately understood the reason, "It's okay, when you report my name, just say that it is my arrangement, naturally no one will embarrass you." ”

"May I ask the Childe's name?"

"Fan Lu, my father's book Ling Fan Bingzhong. "At this time, I had to call my father's name.

There are no more than a few names in the court that are known to the world, and Fan Bingzhong must be one of them, and the one most respected by the world.

Li Dabeard is no exception, although he hates many things in the court, and what he does is not a good deal, but for this Zhongshu order for the sake of the world, he respects it in his heart.

He solemnly clenched his fists, "Fan Gongzi, last time it was a small one with eyes and no beads, and I was offended." This time, please rest assured, I will definitely explain, inquire for my son, and as soon as there is news, I will go to Tingzhou to report the news. "All the transactions that Li Dabeard has done in his life are to collect cashiers, but this time he is an exception, and he is really willing to do it.

"Then there's Chief Laury. "One more person, one more strength, not to mention that this Li beard is not just one person.

Li Dabeard led the order to go north from the west bank of Luoshui, while Fan Lu led the Tingzhou soldiers to the north along the east bank of Luoshui, although he did not believe that the five princesses would fall into the hands of the enemy, but he was afraid that in case, and if the five princesses went in other directions, it would not be life-threatening.
