Chapter 368: Escape to Los Angeles
Although Chen Xiang rescued all the people who should be saved in the palace, he was discovered when he was about to leave the palace. Soon, dozens of Yu Linwei came, desperately intercepting.
Fortunately, he had arranged someone outside the palace to answer him, but it was still inevitable that there would be a fierce battle.
fled all the way, fought all the way, and when they arrived at the gate of the west city, there was a curfew, and they couldn't get out of the city gate at all. Later, there were more and more chasing soldiers, and of the hundreds of people he had launched, there were only a few dozen left.
Dozens of people, but they chose to fight against the water and go out of the city!
It's almost impossible for them to fight.
On Hanyue Mountain, inside Hanshan Temple.
Shen Liancheng couldn't sit still. She called Li Ling and said, "The time has passed, why don't you go to the city gate to have a look?" ”
"Nope." Li Ling's face was grim, and he said: "Respect the bus, let me not leave Mrs. half a step." If the honorable prince does not come out tonight, tomorrow, I will take my wife back to the city, go to the house, and then make plans. ”
"In case ......" Shen Liancheng finally didn't say the cranky thoughts in his heart. She shook her head, paced back and forth in the house for a few steps, and finally said to Li Ling: "Then you and I will go to the city gate together, and if there is no movement, we will come back." ”
Li Ling thought about it and agreed.
When the two came to the city gate, they heard the sound of fighting inside the city wall, and guessed that it was Chen Xiang and them.
Li Ling didn't say a word, and stepped forward to kill a few soldiers guarding outside the city gate. Then, he instructed Shen Liancheng: "Madam, you wait here, I'll go over and help." ”
Shen Liancheng nodded, wondering in his heart, how would Li Ling pass? The next moment, I saw Li Ling stepping on the wall of the city wall and flying up.
She couldn't help but sigh that someone had such a ability!
Going up to the city wall, Li Ling's bloody blade radiated bows and arrows to the city guards, helping Chen Xiang and the others a lot.
However, his arrival did not give everyone a chance to breathe. More and more Yulinwei rushed here, and even Li Ji personally rushed over with the government soldiers.
Chen Xiang and others were difficult to break through the soldiers defending the city.
But when everyone was trying their last breath, I don't know how many black-clothed masked people appeared.
These black-clothed masked people, all of them fly on the wall, are agile, and have the courage to be ten. What's even more powerful is that they all hold strong crossbows in their hands, and they hit every shot, killing a bloody path for Chen Xiang and others.
Chen Xiang didn't have time to think about who sent the helper, so he looked for an opportunity, opened the city gate, and finally escaped.
The masked black-clothed man led by him said loudly to Chen Xiang: "Chen Guogong, take the four princes and leave!" Let's break the back. ”
"Thank you!" Chen Xiang solemnly arched his hand and left quickly and seriously.
When he went out of the city and saw Shen Liancheng, he hurriedly pulled her, "Why are you here too?" ”
"I'm worried about you."
"It's good to be here! Let's go straight to Los Angeles City. Chen Xiang said, "Go and sit in the car." ”
He didn't say much word, sent Shen Liancheng to the car of Shen Bijun and the fourth prince, and hurried away.
The black-clothed masked man led his subordinates to block the city gate, several people in a row, lined up in an orderly manner, and fired crossbows at the pursuers in an orderly manner.
Lang Yanping protected Li Ji and said, "General, the bows and crossbows in these hands are very powerful!" Why don't we withdraw first? ”
Li Ji said: "Just these people? There will always be a time to help! Attack again. ”
"But this ......" Lang Yanping watched his Yu Lin Wei fall down wave after wave, and he felt a little unbearable in his heart.
"General Lang, you can't let the four princes leave alive." Li Ji reminded in a cold voice, "You know, what it means for Chen Xiang to rob the four princes this time!" ”
Lang Yanping thought about it, sighed heavily, and finally reluctantly ordered his Yulin guards, "Attack!" Attack again! ”
The masked man in black insisted on delaying for half an hour before quickly evacuating outside the city.
And it was this little half an hour's effort that allowed Chen Xiang and them to escape dozens of miles, and Li Ji's people chased them out, and they didn't know where they fled to.
It was a night when Kyoto Castle was bustling.
The important ministers of the court who were guarded by Li Ji's people were surprised and secretly happy when they learned that Chen Xiang had robbed the Empress Dowager Ashina, Concubine Jun, and the four princes in the palace out of the palace.
Li Ji entered the palace and lost his temper at Li Shuang'er.
"What did I tell you?! Why don't you listen? You imperial concubine, you don't want to be a princess, do you?! The new Son of Heaven has only been on the throne for a few days, and something like this happened, how do you tell me to end it?! ”
Li Shuang'er was scolded in a hurry, and couldn't help choking back angrily, "If you agree with me to take the life of that slut's mother and son at noon, where will there be this now?" ”
"Are you still reasonable?! Our Li family, why are they all so stupid!? Thinking of the past, Li Ji was angry.
He felt that his family had never helped him, but was always in the way of him and ruined his plans at a critical moment.
He thought that his eldest sister used to be cautious in the palace and was a well-informed person. In the end, he realized that she was no different from the two women in the family.
Li Shuang'er couldn't believe her ears when she heard him say such insults.
Once upon a time, this younger brother of hers was still very good to herself. How did it get to this point?
At this time, someone from the outer palace came to report and said: "Mrs. Wang, a wealthy businessman, I have something important to see the general and His Royal Highness the imperial concubine." ”
"Shen Ruxiu?" The second sister who has a very poor relationship with Shen Liancheng, Li Ji still remembers. She asked to enter the palace late at night, which is a bit ridiculous! But......
"Invite her in!" Before Li Ji could think about it, Li Shuang'er put aside the quarrel with him for the time being, and told him with some luck, "Brother, this Mrs. Wang is not simple!" She has the power of a prophet of the unknown! She is in such a hurry to see us, and she must have something important to tell. ”
Li Ji didn't make a sound. He also wanted to hear about Shen Ruxiu's late-night visit, what did he do.
Shen Ruxiu quickly came in with the palace people who were introduced.
She respectfully saluted Li Shuang'er and Li Ji successively.
"You'd better tell me something meaningful." Li Ji glanced at her, but didn't have much patience, "Let's get straight to the point!" Don't beat around the bush. ”
Shen Ruxiu stood upright with all her time, lowered her eyebrows and said, "I know where Chen Xiang will rush with the four princes." ”
"Where?" Li Shuang'er looked more eager than anyone else.
Li Ji also looked directly at Shen Ruxiu, and listened with his ears pricked up, lest he would hear something wrong and miss it.
"L.A."
Hearing this place name, Li Ji immediately frowned.
Luocheng is built with the widest moat in the Great Zhou, with iron walls and copper walls, which are easy to defend and not easy to attack. If Chen Xiang and his entourage really went there......
"General, that's not the worst news." Shen Ruxiu's sudden words interrupted his thoughts. She told him, "The forces of the dead and orphaned have not been eliminated, but have been hidden deeper." ”
