Chapter 161: Riding a Horse in Pursuit
Wasn't the person at the front the same person who had killed her parents with a sword?
The black mole the size of a thumb on his forehead and the anger in his eyes will never be forgotten for the rest of his life. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info
The three of them wore uniform clothes, rode tall horses, and carried long swords at their waists, looking very wise and powerful.
Since they were riding horses, they passed in front of Wen Yingsu and Madame Gong like a gust of wind.
Wen Yingsu didn't have time to think about it, and immediately said to Mrs. Gong: "Mother-in-law, the child has something to do, can you lend me the horse of this carriage?" ”
They only took a carriage on this trip, and if she asked for this horse, the carriage would not be available for the time being. This is not the most important thing, the most important thing is that Mrs. Gong is worried that Wen Yingsu will have an accident when she goes out on horseback alone, and Mrs. Gong has already guessed that she wants to chase the three people in front of her.
"What do you want a horse for? It's too dangerous for you to be out there alone, and I'm really not at ease. Mrs. Gong took Wen Yingsu's hand tightly and said.
Wen Yingsu didn't have time to explain more, so she immediately snatched the whip from the coachman's hand, climbed onto the horse's back with all her strength, and hurried away towards the backs of the three people in front of her with a "drive".
Although Madame Gong was a little panicked in her heart, after all, she was also a person who had experienced wind and rain and seen the world, so she immediately calmed herself down and said to the coachman: "Hurry up to the front and stop a carriage, we will try to catch up with them." ”
Oh my God, Madame is going to chase them? The coachmen and maids were frightened, and begged the palace lady not to go.
Madame Gong thought for a moment and said to the coachman, "You can stop a carriage first, and we will go home immediately." ”
After arriving home, she can ask Miyazawa Tetsu and her two sons to come out to find Wen Yingsu.
She recognized the clothes worn by the three of them, which were the clothes worn by the 1st Cavalry Quan Yong of the Shenji Battalion.
This knowledge is what Tetsu Miyazawa tells her bit by bit on weekdays.
Right now, since she recognized it as someone from the Shenji Camp, she only needed to ask Miyazawa Zhe or her two sons to go outside the Shenji Camp to find Wen Yingsu.
Of course, she still couldn't help but worry, worried that Wen Yingsu would be killed by the three of them on the way.
Thinking that Wen Yingsu was still dressed as a woman at that time, and she was such a beautiful young lady, she was very uneasy, so she urged the coachman to hurry up all the way.
When she arrived at the palace, Mrs. Gong immediately asked the housekeeper: "Are the master, the master and the second master back?" ”
The housekeeper hurriedly said, "Uncle is back." The old man and the second master have not yet returned. ”
"Immediately ask the uncle to come to the living room." Madame Gong said as she walked briskly to the living room.
Mrs. Gong's eldest son, ** Ying Ting, learned that his mother was looking for him, and immediately put down his books and walked out of the study.
"Your sister-in-law rode away after seeing three men from the Divine Machine Battalion's cavalry on the street, and I didn't even have time to ask her why. But the more I thought about it, the more worried I became, so I hurried back and told you that you should take a few people along the road to have a look. ”
Gong Yingting was also surprised when he heard this, and hurriedly said, "Okay, I'll go right away." He immediately took five people who knew martial arts and rode in the direction where Wen Yingsu was chasing the three people.
But when Wen Yingsu chased after the three people desperately, the three people quickly noticed it, and they immediately sped up.
But Wen Yingsu still followed unrelentingly.
In order to keep up with them quickly, Wen Yingsu kept speeding up the horses.
"Captain, the man is about to catch up again." One of them said to the man with a black mole on his forehead.
The man with the mole on his forehead immediately turned his head to look at Wen Yingsu.
Wen Yingsu was wearing men's clothes when he traveled with his family, so he didn't recognize Wen Yingsu who was wearing women's clothes at the moment, but he was very annoyed that someone was following, so he said to the two subordinates: "Show her some color." ”
The two men immediately turned their horses' heads to stop Wen Yingsu.
Hearing this, the horse was shocked, and was forced to stop after raising his head to the sky and letting out a long howl.
"Little girl, what are you doing with us?" One of them asked in a cold voice.
Wen Yingsu didn't answer, and tightened the horse's head to chase after the man with the black mole on his forehead.
Who knew that the man who had just asked him drew his sword and pressed it against Wen Yingsu's neck with lightning speed.
With such a sharp blade, as long as Wen Yingsu moved again, blood would definitely splash everywhere, Wen Yingsu had to stay motionless, but her eyes were glaring at the man.
"Say, why are you following us?"
The hero didn't suffer the immediate loss, Wen Yingsu had to pretend to be timid and replied: "I recognized the wrong person, I'm sorry!" ”
The man sneered and asked, "Did you recognize the wrong person?" So who do you think we are? ”
"I don't know, I first came to the capital, and there are many things I don't know."
The man looked at Wen Ying's flower-like appearance, and couldn't help but feel a little moved. He approached Wen Yingsu a little closer and asked, "Which daughter are you?" ”
"I came from Huguang, my home is in Hengzhou Mansion, and my father's surname is Qingyun." Wen Yingsu replied softly.
It's something she made up crambled.
The two exchanged glances, and the man who had just asked her slowly withdrew his sword.
Wen Yingsu was afraid that they would do something unfavorable to her next, so she hurriedly said, "Please forgive me for disturbing me." "Then he ran away.
She had never seen them wear this kind of costume before, so she couldn't tell what their identities were for a while, but she made a note of the characteristics of their costumes, and she asked Miyazawa Tetsu for advice when she was about to return to the palace.
When Wen Yingsu was halfway back, she ran into Gong Yingting, who came to find her, and hurriedly said, "Brother, I'm fine, you don't have to worry." ”
Gong Yingting immediately jumped off his horse and walked up to her horse, looked up at her and asked, "They didn't do anything to you, did they?" ”
"No, I managed to escape." Wen Yingsu smiled at him.
"That's good, my mother is very worried about you, let's go back and report her safety."
"Hmm."
Gong Yingting and Wen Yingsu rode side by side to the palace quickly.
On the way, Wen Yingsu told Gong Yingting about the clothing characteristics of the three people, and asked Gong Yingting who they were.
"They are the people of the Cavalry Quan Yong of the Divine Machine Battalion." Gong Yingting quickly replied.
Wen Yingsu had heard of the Shenji Battalion and knew that it was a battalion in charge of firearms in the Praetorian Guard of the capital, with a total of 5,000 to 6,000 people, including infantry (all equipped with firearms), cavalry, and artillery. They defend the Beijing division when they have nothing to do, and send troops to fight when they have something.
The people of the Shenji Battalion directly obeyed the emperor's orders.
He turned out to be a person from the Shenji Battalion, which Wen Yingsu never expected. At the same time, Wen Yingsu couldn't help but ask in her heart: Was that incident really the work of the supreme power?
