Chapter 10 Prisoner Car
"Get out of the way!"
Before he got closer, he heard the leading guard shouting loudly, and the crowd of onlookers also got out of the way when they saw this scene, leaving a road. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 On the info prisoner car, Old Marquis Xie closed his eyes and was silent, never opening his eyes from beginning to end. Success and defeat of the king, this truth has been known since the day he started, and now that he has failed, the fate has naturally been known long ago, and the only thing is death.
Because the post station is the last foothold near the capital, it is much more prosperous than other post stations in the wilderness, and to a certain extent, this can already be regarded as a town. After the official post station, the common people built a residence around the post station, and after dozens of hundreds of years, it will evolve into a new town, and many famous cities and ancient formations in history are derived from this.
"Give you time to stick incense, prepare two hundred portions of food and dry food, and the best fodder for these horses."
The head guard threw out a sign and handed it to the head of the inn.
"Later, the small one will be prepared for you."
The person in charge of the post station was a fat man, and after taking the token, he quickly went down to prepare. The escort guards were scattered, each with a serious expression, holding a saber in one hand, and constantly scanning the surroundings for people who might be in danger, and the guards in charge of guarding began to drive away the crowd of onlookers.
"Retreat for me, no one is allowed to approach within a hundred steps, and those who violate the order will be killed on the spot!"
Sensing the solemnity emanating from the guards, the crowd retreated again.
But there were also some people who whispered.
"Haven't all the people been caught? Why are these people so cautious? ”
"Hehe, you don't know this, I heard that there are amazing characters among the heirs of the old marquis Xie, this time a total of three people escaped from the pursuit of the imperial court, not only that, but two of them killed the worshippers who went to capture them."
"Kill the court offerings? Impossible, right? ”
"The court worshippers are all immortals who have mastered spells, how can they be killed by ordinary people?"
Another person chimed in, thinking that curiosity was not limited to one or two people.
"Ordinary people? None of the three heirs of the Hou Mansion who escaped were ordinary people. ”
The fat man who spoke at the beginning said disdainfully, it could be seen from his attire that this person should be a merchant who traveled from south to north, this kind of person is the most well-informed, and many anecdotes can be heard from them, of course, if it is valuable news, then it needs to be charged.
"The eldest prince of the Hou Mansion, with 200,000 soldiers, is located in the Mobei grassland, as early as ten years ago, he has already controlled the border pass, and there are countless capable people under him, it is said that the worship who captured him was killed before he entered Mobei, and the body hung on the city tower, and it has not been taken down so far."
In the post station, Xie Yan, who was drinking, heard the news, and his eyes narrowed slightly.
"I didn't think he survived."
The eldest son of the Hou Mansion is his cheap big brother.
In his impression, that person was definitely a ruthless person, and he clearly remembered that when he was twelve years old, a younger brother who was born out of his concubine had his legs destroyed by his own hands because he stole the blood of his practice. That kind of indifferent gaze, Xie Yan still remembers that kind of cold-blooded and ruthless person, there is nothing else in his eyes except interests, Xie Yan and he can be said to have no half-penny feelings, and the two of them are as indifferent as strangers.
"The eldest prince is so domineering, isn't he afraid of the imperial court recruiting troops to crusade?"
"This point has long been thought of by the eldest prince, it is said that after he killed the imperial court, he had led the city to surrender to the enemy, and the king of Mobei Meng had accepted him, and it was he who canonized him as a grassland nobleman, and sent troops south to help him resist the Dayan Dynasty together."
"Bah, treason to the enemy, its crime is punishable!"
There were some loyal and patriotic people in the crowd.
The fat man didn't care, just continued.
"The second person who escaped was Hou Sangongzi, it is said that this third prince was taken by an immortal and accepted as a closed disciple, and the court did not dare to offend the immortal, so he had to retreat."
The legend of the immortals has been circulating among the ordinary people of the Great Yan Kingdom, but what the specific immortals look like, they don't know at all, in the eyes of many ordinary people, the kind of people who can release spells worshiped by the imperial court are already considered immortals.
"The eldest prince and the third prince, tsk, the two sons of the old marquis Xie should be beheaded according to the law of Dayan, but I didn't expect all of them to survive, no wonder the royal family was angry."
"What about the rest of the one? Wouldn't it be that you met an immortal? ”
Someone coaxed, and the fat man glanced at the officials who were on guard in the distance, and when he saw that they didn't pay attention here, he continued.
"This third person is the seventh son of the old marquis of Xie, speaking of which, this little marquis is a real character, because he is completely different from the eldest prince and the third prince, he survived completely on his own, not only that, but he also relied on his own means to kill all the famous arresters who went to hunt him down and a court worship with high magic power."
"It can't be, right?"
"Just on your own? Fatty, you just blow it. ”
"What do you know? These little marquis are the disciples of the blood swordsman master Feng Nian, and he practiced swordsmanship with one hand, and the people who went to chase him were all killed by him with one sword, and even the worshipping lord did not resist. It is impossible for the fat man to know the specific situation at that time, and it is obvious nonsense.
"It turned out to be Master Shi Fengnian, I heard that Lord is the number one swordsman of Dayan."
"If it's that adult disciple, it's really possible."
"The royal family has suffered such a big loss this time, and it will definitely not give up, and the court of the eldest prince and the third prince will definitely not dare to pursue it, but this little marquis will definitely be the target of the next arrest." What this person said was true, during this period of time, the imperial court obviously deliberately weakened the news on the side of the eldest prince and the third prince, but focused the search and arrest on Xie Yan.
This can be regarded as a manifestation of bullying the weak and fearing the hard, after all, Xie Yan's master is just an ordinary swordsman.
......
In the post station, Xie Yan didn't continue to listen to what those people said, but just looked at the convoy of prisoner cars.
He basically knows all the people who were locked in the prison car, but this is also a matter of course, the cat and dog with the first status have already been executed, that is, this kind of big man will be escorted to Beijing, and he will be convicted in person today.
"Eat, eat, eat, eat one and miss one."
One by one, the officers in charge of food walked to the front of the prisoner cart and forced the food in their hands into the prisoners in the cart. Some of the ladies coughed one after another under such rude feeding, but they didn't say much, just numbly chewed the food in their mouths, and it could be seen from their eyes that they had already despaired, and that life was the same as the walking dead, without the atmosphere of a living person.
It didn't take long for the rested convoy to hit the road again.
Xie Yan looked at the scene in front of him indifferently.
In a place like Houfu, there is very little family affection, and in his eyes, these people in front of him are just strangers he knows.
Looking at the departing convoy, Xie Yan slowly drank the last glass of wine, and after paying for the wine, he also left.
In the crowd, the fat man who had been saying this flickered his eyes when he saw this scene, and after a few greetings, he also left.
