Chapter 597: Set off for the south, inside and outside

Early the next morning, the four princes bid farewell to Emperor Qiyang and a number of ministers, and set off with the soldiers. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Because they were in a hurry to go to Huizhou to suppress the rebels, they were in a hurry, and as soon as they left the city gate, they accelerated the speed of the march.

The two lieutenants were experienced marchers, and the soldiers were well-trained, so the march was fast, but there was no panic.

Gradually, the group arrived in the dense forest on the outskirts of Beijing.

Mo Xiao instructed everyone to cheer up and pay attention to the movements around them, and the soldiers replied in a loud voice: "Yes, Your Highness!" ”

It was nearly noon, the sun was getting fuller, and it was about to leave the dense forest, Mo Xiao ordered everyone to rest for a while, and then leave after lunch.

After a morning of rapid marching, everyone was also a little tired, and when they heard this, they immediately stopped and prepared to make a fire to cook.

Mo Xiao did not engage in specialization, and had lunch with the soldiers, this small act made the soldiers have a better impression of him in their hearts.

After lunch and a short rest, Mo Xiao ordered everyone to set off again.

They were to get to the inn near the city before dark, and if they delayed any longer, they would have to stay in the wilderness tonight.

Fortunately, they didn't lose much time along the way, so they finally arrived at the post station before sunset.

Yi Cheng had received an order from Shangfeng earlier, knowing that at night, the four princes would lead their troops to live at their post station, so they would pack up early and wait for the big driver at the gate of the post station.

Seeing a column of majestic cavalry coming from a distance, Yi Cheng hurriedly stepped forward.

A moment later, the four princes rode to the front.

"Your Royal Highness, see the Fourth Prince." The post man bowed and saluted.

Mo Xiao grabbed the reins, beat the horse down, and said to the post man: "No need to be polite, everything in the post station is arranged?" ”

"It's all arranged, Your Highness is invited, and a few adults are invited." Yi Cheng bowed down and made a respectful gesture.

Mo Rin was the first to enter the station, followed by two lieutenants, one on the left and one on the right.

"The wine and food are all ready, does Your Highness want to eat first, or bathe first?" The post is attentive to the side.

Mo Xiao's brows furrowed almost invisibly, "Arrange for the soldiers to eat first, you don't have to follow me, the soldiers are tired for a day, just arrange them." ”

The corners of Yi Cheng's mouth froze for a moment, and then he nodded and said, "Yes, Your Highness." ”

Mo Xiao said that he would not engage in specialization, so he really had dinner in the hall with the soldiers.

After the meal, he discussed some things with the two lieutenants, and then went back to his room to rest.

As soon as he returned to the room, he sensitively sensed that there was someone in his house, and Mo Xiao quickly closed the door.

And he saw a man floating down from the beam in his room.

"Dark One, how is it, have you found anything abnormal?" Mo Xiao beckoned the man to the table and sat down, and asked in a low voice.

Dark One, that is, the leader of the secret guard of Duanjin Palace.

After he sat down, he greeted Mo Xiao first, and then replied: "There are five dead soldiers, ambushed around the post station, there is something wrong with this post man, it should be someone over there." ”

Mo Xiao's face was solemn, he nodded, and said, "It seems that Uncle Wang's suspicion is right. ”

Dark One didn't reply, but nodded silently in his heart.

That's natural, the prince is wise and martial, and there are few mistakes, the prince said that the four princes will not be peaceful when they go out this time, then it must be not peaceful, otherwise the prince would not have sent him out to protect the four princes.

"They sent the dead, will you be in danger?" Mo Xiao was a little worried.

Dark one is Uncle Wang's manpower, if something happens to protect him, he really has no face to see Uncle Wang.

Who knew that when he heard his worries, he shook his head very seriously, "Your Highness, rest assured, although it is a dead soldier, it is also divided into grades, and we can still deal with them." ”

Mo Xiao couldn't hold back the surprise in his heart, the only ones who could praise himself as serious were Uncle Wang's subordinates.

Is this the red one who is close to Zhu and the black one who is close to ink?

"Your Highness should rest first, you have to hurry tomorrow, your subordinates will stay in the house, Your Highness can rest assured."

"Well, be careful." Mo Xiao couldn't say anything polite, so he could only respond to Dark One's suggestion and go back to bed and lie down.

But he was also afraid of an accident and didn't have time to react, so he slept directly with his clothes.

As soon as he saw Mo Xiao return to the bed, he jumped on the beam again, closed his eyes and concentrated, always paying attention to the movements around him.

As the night grew darker, the post house gradually calmed down, and everyone was tired after a day's journey, so they soon fell into a deep sleep.

Only the guards around the inn, patrolling back and forth from time to time, made a slight noise of rustling.

As the hour approached, the guards also changed shifts.

After the handover, the team that had been replaced yawned and went back to rest.

The night breeze is blowing, the moon is shining brightly, and everything seems so quiet and beautiful.

In the dead of night, the house where the fourth prince Mo Xiao was located was blown into a fog.

Darkly, he suddenly flew off the beam, and almost didn't touch the ground in front of Mo Xiao's bed.

Mo Xiao noticed that someone was approaching, and immediately came to his senses.

Seeing in the faint moonlight, Dark waved his hand at him, and then handed him a pill.

Mo Xiao smelled the smell of smoke and understood that what Dark One had given was an antidote to restrain smoke, so he hurriedly took it and swallowed it.

As soon as the medicine entered the throat, in an instant, I felt a cool breath rushing to my lungs, and I felt more energetic.

Dark One made a gesture and motioned for Mo Xiao to hide next to the tall cabinet next to the bed first.

Mo Xiao bowed his head, then put on his boots and flashed to the side of the cabinet.

After a few moments, I heard a slight "click" at the door.

Immediately after, the latch on the door fell, and several figures flashed into the room one after another.

The one at the head, armed with a long sword, approached the bed with a light step, then carefully lifted the bed tent and stabbed the bed with a volley.

Immediately, he found that he had stabbed the air with a sword, and his heart was terrified, and the secret path was not good.

But before he could tell the people behind him that they had been tricked, he heard a short whistle suddenly sound from inside the house, and immediately afterwards several figures poured in from the door and the window, and their bodies were extremely fast, and they jumped in front of them in an instant.

Only then did several dead soldiers react to the plan and hurriedly swung their swords to meet the enemy.

They thought they were skilled, but they didn't know that this group of people who came were even more skilled and extremely fast.

Within a few moves, the dead were restrained.

They are trained professionals who want to bite into the poison hidden in their mouths when they see that they are invincible.

Their opponents were faster, and in an instant, with a movement of their wrists, the jaws of several dead soldiers were removed.

Now, they couldn't even close their mouths, let alone bite down on the hidden poison.

As soon as Dark One waved his hand to his subordinates, several dead soldiers were ordered to sleep in the cave, packed and taken away.
