Chapter 61: This is Destiny
Three days later, late one night, the officers and soldiers outside the palace were still very vigilant, and they took turns patrolling. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
The sentry hiding in the shadows, sleeping well during the day, has no sleepiness at the moment, and his eyes slide over the night from time to time, observing every possible shadow.
However, it was the same heavily guarded palace that broke into the three unfamiliar guests from the outside, and they quietly approached the second gate, hiding there, waiting for an opportunity.
Soon after, I heard the shouting outside, "There is a thief!" ”
I saw three more black shadows flying over the wall and running straight towards Chen Yao's courtyard.
Wang Yihu's first reaction was to jump up from the bed, pick up the coiling dragon stick in his hand, and go straight to Chen Yao's yard.
The three black shadows waiting there, seeing that someone went away by themselves first, did not care about hiding, and chased them directly, saw the swords in the hands of the three people, and then observed the height of the three black shadows, and knew that this was the so-called Three Musketeers in the North.
Among the three, a tall black shadow hated in his heart, hated this palace was heavily guarded, and he had never had a chance to attack, and they hated these three musketeers even more, because their palace was so heavily guarded.
These three people were sent by the Southern Kingdom, and when they learned that Chen Yao was in the palace through the internal response, they selected three palace guards with light skills and strong martial arts, and came to the Wangfu Street Inn to stay.
They had been observing the palace for two days, and it was heavily guarded, and strangers did not want to enter it.
At night, they climbed to the top of a large tree near the palace to observe the movement in the palace, and after a few days of observation, as they expected, there were not only patrols inside, but also secret sentinels.
They memorized the location of each outpost, calculated the interval between patrols, and then chose to wear the clothes of a northern soldier in the dead of night, blend into the ranks, and take advantage of the blank time of patrols, fly up the wall, and disappear inside.
The purpose of their trip was to snatch Chen Yao away and reunite their brothers and sisters.
The emperor of the southern kingdom convened all the ministers and conducted a multi-faceted analysis of Chen Yu's matter, and felt that bringing Chen Yao to the southern country to raise him would be beneficial to the southern kingdom and not harmful.
They could have thought about it in the long run, seeing how they could lure Chen Yao to the southern country, or when she would go to the streets, or go back to the capital to pay tribute to her parents, this was an opportunity to hijack.
However, time waits for no one, according to the news brought back by the Southern State spies, the Yang Mansion has already sent someone to assassinate Chen Yao.
If Chen Yao is assassinated, of course, there will not be much loss to the south, but if Chen Yao is rescued back to the south at this time, what will Chen Yu think? Nanguo will become his benefactor, as long as he holds their brother and sister in the palm of his hand and cares for them meticulously, he will not worry about Chen Yu, who is eager for revenge, and he will have to be loyal to Nanguo with all his heart.
So, they had to give it a shot.
The three of them followed the Three Musketeers, broke through the second courtyard, and directly entered the inner courtyard, and saw one of the three musketeers from afar, flew up and kicked open the courtyard door, the courtyard gate collapsed, and before it stopped, the second one flew to the window at a speed of 100 meters, only to hear a bang, the window was kicked open, and then there was a sound on the ground, and the person flew out again, fell to the ground, and couldn't move.
The three of them and the two swordsmen were all shocked, it turned out that there was an ambush here. The two swordsmen stepped forward, and one of them tested the snort of the man lying on the ground with his hand, and he was already out of breath. He had a willow dart stuck around his neck.
The two girls sleeping inside were woken up by the sound of the courtyard door collapsing, and they were completely unaware, and opened the door and came out, and before they could understand anything, they saw two swords stabbing at them, saying that it was too late and that was fast, and the three guards from the south were not vegetarians, but only heard two sounds on the spot, and the swords of the two swordsmen had been opened.
Two southern guards stood in front of them, and behind them, there were two girls, one big and one small, who were speechless, and that little girl was bought into the mansion by the palace for ten taels of silver the day before yesterday.
"Brother Zhang, take people away, we'll break off!" The way of the taller of the two guards.
I saw that the guard called Brother Zhang didn't answer, and walked up to the little girl, picked her up and ran out.
A large group of officers and soldiers broke into the outside at this time.
"Quick, surround the two of them, don't let them hurt Miss Chen!"
The officers and soldiers saw Brother Zhang holding a little girl and running outside the courtyard gate, and saw two soldiers fighting with the two swordsmen, so they surrounded them together, and the guard who was holding the little girl was looking for a place with few people, and he flew up to the wall.
"Stop!" I saw the officers and soldiers below shooting arrows at him.
"My own people, don't hurt Miss Chen!"
"You come down!"
Brother Zhang no longer cares, there is a little girl in hand, and they don't dare to open the bow.
So a few jumped and threw off the officers and soldiers behind them. When he reached the inn, he tied the frightened little girl to himself, untied the horse's reins, mounted the horse, and with a clatter, went in the direction of the border.
"Second brother, let's go!" Zhu Bo said to the second Zhu Yi.
The two people, two southern guards and northern officers and soldiers, fought for dozens of rounds, and two people suffered different degrees of knife wounds.
The southern guards had no intention of fighting, and slowly retreated and walked towards the gate.
I saw two swordsmen, swords, swept at the same time, all the officers and soldiers took a step back, and taking advantage of this opportunity, two people flew onto the roof.
"Shoot the arrows!"
In an instant, dozens of archers fired their bows at the same time, and arrows rained down on them, but they were no longer there, and they fled from the palace by taking advantage of the chaos of all the officers and soldiers in the palace. Wounded, they mounted a horse and headed for the southern city.
On the second day, while the garrison of Nancheng was still asleep, the soldiers came to report that there were two wounded men who wanted to see the garrison.
The Nancheng garrison woke up in shock, it seems that they still haven't been able to stop these three people from committing murder, I don't know what happened to the life of that Miss Chen family.
He didn't have time to get dressed and tie up, so he came out in a panic, and saw two people standing under the hall, covered in blood, standing there supporting each other.
"Who are you? Why are you looking for me? The Nancheng garrison waved his hand to let his men go down, and asked calmly.
"We were sent by Lord Yang to assassinate Miss Chen." Zhu Bodao.
"Oh!" The Nancheng garrison hurriedly stood up and came down to greet the two, "Presumably you are two of the Three Musketeers?" ”
"Yes!"
"And what about the other one?"
"Killed in battle!"
The Nancheng garrison frowned and shook his head, expressing regret.
"What a pity, so this operation, is it successful or not?"
"Failed!" Zhu Yi turned his face, "I didn't expect that they would bite the gold halfway, they were wearing the clothes of officers and soldiers, but they were not the swordsmanship of officers and soldiers at all, otherwise we would have succeeded a long time ago." ”
"Oh! What about the man? ”
"Rescued by their people!"
"Rescued? Who saved Miss Chen? ”
"I don't know!"
It's good that you don't die! The south side garrison thinks.
The Nancheng garrison breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Two heroes, don't blame yourself, recuperate from your injuries first, and then take care of it later." ”
On this day, the Nancheng garrison received a letter from Yang Tong, saying that the two could not stay, because they had died a brother, and they were afraid that they would have trouble in the future, so they would seek revenge for their brother Wang Yilong and cause trouble for themselves.
After reading the letterhead, the Nancheng garrison thought about it, and prepared a table of banquets to entertain the two.
"The two of them have recovered almost physically, and the prime minister has a letter asking them to go on the road, and I think the two of them are ??????"
The Nancheng garrison hadn't finished speaking. Uncle Zhu, the boss, suddenly spat blood from his mouth and covered his chest with his hands. Then the second child also did the same, vomiting blood and not stopping.
"You, you ??????" Zhu Bo pointed to the southern city garrison.
"You two brothers can't blame me, I just carried out the order, I forgot to tell you, the Miss Chen family can't be killed, but you didn't receive the notice, besides, the three of you brothers should be blessed and share hardships, who let you leave a brother? It's the prime minister's meaning, even if I don't kill you, someone else will kill you, accept your fate! ”
After the Nancheng garrison finished speaking, he came out and said to the dozen or so warriors who were holding knives at the door and were about to rush in to rescue at any time, "Go ahead, dispose of their corpses!" ”
A few men came in, wrapped the two men in cloth, carried them out, and buried them in the wilderness.
