The geographical location of Chu County is quite similar to that of Guanzhou, but the difference is that Chu County is adjacent to Sichuan and Shu, and those who can fight know that Chu County is a major fortress between the Central Plains and Shu.

It is not that Chu County is not in the territory of the Central Plains, it should be said that Chu County is one of the gateways of the Central Plains.

Before the destruction of the Shu Kingdom, Chu County had always been a military powerhouse, and later the Shu Kingdom was destroyed, and Chu County was also deserted.

However, this is just a waste of what discerning people think, in fact, Chu County is a major military land.

From the fact that the emperor divided Chu County to the eleventh prince Yan Wang, it can be known that the place is a good place, but it can't resist the King of Shu having an enmity with him.

The king of Shu is the younger brother of the first emperor, the uncle of Emperor Mingde and King Yong, and now he has long passed away, and the successor to the throne is the eldest son Zhao Yixun, the mother of Zhao Yixun and the mother of Zhao Chongji, the king of Yan, is a feud.

It can be seen that the former emperor is not the one who loves his son.

However, it is also conducive to the stability of the national dynasty, and there will be no phenomenon of pulling the mountain.

But the fief of King Yan and the fief of King Jing are next to each other, so in Zhao Shu's previous life, these two helped each other for a while.

It's such a complex potential segmentation, which is unpredictable, where is the complexity? This time, Emperor Mingde was a little embarrassed.

He looked at the information on the table, "The people of the King of Shu intercepted the messenger?" Hum. A three-year-old child doesn't believe in such a trick, how can he believe it?

Qin Ji stood aside and answered: "Your Majesty, the floods in Chu County are not strict, but the hateful thing is that King Yan drove the refugees out of the city, causing the people to complain, so the victims poured into the capital. ”

"This old eleven, it's polite to say he's stupid." Emperor Mingde was furious and put the teacup with a clattering sound, "Wait a minute." He was furious, but he seemed to think of something.

Picked up the information again, and muttered to himself: "The people of the King of Shu intercepted the messenger, and the old eleven is driving the refugees out of the city, is there any situation on the twelfth side?" ”

"Yes, King Jing is opening the city gate widely, releasing grain for disaster relief, and now his reputation has spread all over Chu County, and there are many refugees in Shu who go to Xiliang." Qin Ji told the truth, secretly admired King Jing in his heart, and really picked a time to buy people's hearts.

Emperor Mingde kicked on the pu fan on the side, and the pu fan fell, and even brought down the stilt ding containing the ice cubes, and the ice cubes were kicked to the ground.

Fortunately, the tripod is not too big, and there are not many ice cubes.

"Hmph, I've put up with him for a long time, go, call your apprentice back."

Qin Ji knew what he had been planning since the first emperor, and if he wanted to summon Wei Tingsi back, it was time to retreat, so he bowed down and retreated, and returned to the forbidden place of the deep palace after a while.

One order after another was issued from the deep palace, and from this moment on, the pattern of Dayong will be completely changed, either the world will be unified, or all parties will compete for hegemony during the Warring States period, no one knows.

And King Yong, who had just arrived in Chu County, stopped in front of the guiding stone at this time, and did not move for a long time.

Fu Bo took a step behind, also stopped in front of the guiding stone, and handed the kettle to King Yong, "Lord Wang, you drink saliva." ”

King Yong shook his head, turned over and dismounted, and walked towards a refugee not far away, "This old man, dare to ask, but he is from Chudi?" ”

The refugee was in his sixties, and although his clothes were in rags, his face was not clean, and even his hands were full of dirt, as if he was digging wild vegetables in the mountains, and he did not have time to wash them.

The only thing that goes against the law is that the inside of the nails is extremely clean.

"If you return to your nobles, you are indeed from the land of Chu." He didn't talk much, but he spoke clearly, and his eyes were shining.

Fu Bo was not at ease, and he also turned over and dismounted to protect the Yongwang, and the refugee looked at him without speaking.

King Yong glanced around him and asked, "Is the old man alone?" Do you have any relatives at home? ”

"Where are there any relatives, I am alone, old man." As he spoke, his eyes turned red, and his expression became sad, such a sudden change also led King Yong and Fu Bo, as well as a group of soldiers, all of whom raised their ears to listen to his next story.

The old man also lived up to expectations, and said sadly: "There are two sons and a daughter in the family, the eldest son was recruited by King Yan to be a soldier, and the second son wanted to go to the city to beg yesterday, but was ordered to be killed by King Yan, and the daughter and son-in-law did not know where to flee." ”

Speaking of this, he looked at King Yong again, "The noble man is going to Chu City?" ”

King Yong bowed his head, "I really want to go to Chu City." He was not wearing a python robe, but a brocade white robe with dark stripes, and a horsewhip in his hand, not a folding fan.

Those who don't know him don't know that this is His Royal Highness the famous Yongwang of the dynasty.

The old man waved his hand when he heard this, "The nobleman should turn around, don't go to Chu City, King Yan has now sealed the city, and he can't enter if he goes." ”

King Yong frowned, anger already appeared on his face, "What do you say about what the old man said?" When did King Yan seal the city? ”

"Hey, the flood has been sealed, the neighbors have gone to Xiliang, and the old man is alone, even if he dies, he will die in Chudi." He said it with great sadness.

When King Yong heard this, his anger became even stronger, and he arched his hand to the old man and said, "Thank you, old man, for saying goodbye." He glanced at the old man deeply, turned back to the guiding stone, and did not go back, nor did he enter the ground.

The old man kept peeking at him with his afterglow, and even Fu Bo didn't know what King Yong was waiting for, probably waiting for Mo Qin who went to explore the way, or was he afraid?

This thought flashed, and he hurriedly shook it off, although the prince has been ridiculous all these years, he is not that timid and afraid.

After waiting for about half an hour, I heard the sound of horses' hooves, accompanied by Mochin's voice.

The road into Chu County was an extremely wide official road, and Mo Qin's horse turned over the mountain col and saw that King Yong, Fu Bo and others were waiting at the fork in the road.

After a while, he rode his horse to King Yong, turned over and dismounted and knelt on one knee, and had already submitted a piece of information in his hand, "Lord, King Yan sealed the city and drove the refugees out, and now the refugees in Chu have gone to Xiliang. ”

His voice was neither loud nor small, but it just fell into the ears of the old man, and his eyes lit up, it turned out that the Yongwang was coming!

However, he pretended not to hear, and looked at the sky as if he were in a daze.

Although Mo Qin said this, the information written on the paper was not so, but - King Yan was not in Chu.

King Yan is not in Chudi! So where is he? Chu sent a lot of water, but it was not strict, it stands to reason that the local government can handle it, just report it, and there is no need to send more people over, and the prince is not necessary.

But some people played tricks, first intercepted the messengers, drove away the refugees, and led the refugees to Xiliang, but the king of Yan was not in Chu County.

The prince pondered for a moment, then shifted his position so that the old man could not hear their conversation, and said in a low voice, "Where is the nearest town?" Relatively large.

Fu Bo immediately answered, "The bigger one is Luoyang." ”

It takes a few days to get to Luoyang from here, which is farther than going to Xiliang, but Yongwangfu has connections in Luoyang, and there are no reliable connections in the nearby city.

King Yong thought for a long time after hearing this, and then asked Fu Bo, "Ah Jun has a big shop in Luoyang?" ”

"No, but the young owner of Luoyang Commercial Bank has a cooperative relationship with us, and the slave view is extremely reliable, and his name is Lin Dongxue." At the beginning, Lin Dongxue was seen by him personally, and with his experience, he judged that a person is reliable, and he will not be far from ten.

"The national disaster is at hand, Fuda, you go to Luoyang, persuade Luoyang Commercial Bank, pour money into disaster relief, I will leave a letter, you take it to Luoyang ......" He couldn't remember which one was in charge of Luoyang, and after thinking for a while, he didn't think about it, so he had to say: "Take it to the chief official of Luoyang, let him open the city and let the refugees enter the city." ”

"Yes." Fu Bo can be sent to Yongwang's Mansion as a housekeeper, he is extremely wise, at this time he already knows the situation of the matter, and what Yongwang will do next is also five or six points accurate.

After King Yong finished giving the order, he took out the white handkerchief from his bosom and prepared to write a letter to the chief official of Luoyang.

However, after taking out the handkerchief, he found that Jiang Ying had embroidered it for him himself, there was no complicated color on it, there was only one shadow character, and the words were also white, very small, if you didn't look carefully, you couldn't see it at all.

He looked at the handkerchief and was silent for a long time.

After thinking for a long time, Fu put the handkerchief in his arms, asked Mo Qin to take a piece of rice paper folded into pieces and began to write.

There was no ink, but luckily there was ink on the brush, and when it was wet with water, it was possible to write a few words.

When he had finished writing a short letter, he handed it to Fauber, and motioned for Mochin to go and arrest the old man.

Mo Qin understood, three or two steps to the old man's side, without saying a word, he reached out and lifted the old man, and the clever rope of the government soldiers soon tied the old man strongly.

"Nobleman, nobleman, why do you want to arrest me?" He shouted in panic, his face still sad and sad, if it weren't for his dirty hands, King Yong would have believed his nonsense.

After making a plan in his heart, King Yong walked up to the old man and looked at it, "Say, who sent you?" ”

The old man looked confused, and shook his head again and again in horror, as if he was a real ordinary person, "If you go back to the nobles, the old man was not sent by others, the old man came by himself." ”

"Don't pretend, your outfit does look like a refugee, but your nails are very clean, let's open the skylight and say something, whoever sent you here, this king may let you live."

At this time, King Yong has long lost his absurdity, handsome facial features, tall and majestic posture, slender and outstanding temperament, dressed in white, in the green mountains and green waters, extraordinarily elegant.

Different from Huo Baichuan's uninhibitedness, also different from Wei Caitao's immortal wind bones, and even more different from Wei Tingsi's imposing momentum, it seems that there is no need for external factors to set off his obsessive aura on his body.

He is not young, but he is not old, he has passed the age of his life, he has gone through ups and downs, he has been absurd and degenerate, but at this time he has found the purpose of his future life, he is a father, a pillar of a family, a tree of a child, the son of an elderly mother.

Perhaps, there are things that are not done well, but he is trying.

The vigor of the year has long been rubbed into the bottom of his heart by the absurdity of those years, and after the white horse passed the gap, he washed away the lead and showed a plain posture.

The old man was stunned for a moment, wanting to look at his hand, but he couldn't see it, his hand was tied behind his back, he smiled sadly, "I didn't expect the prince to observe so slightly, since it was discovered by you, then the old man has nothing to say." ”

He said that he wanted to grit his teeth and eat the poison in his mouth, but he was a step too late, and Mo Qin skillfully pinched his chin and took out the poison hidden in his mouth lightly.

King Yong didn't want to interrogate here, interrogating the prisoners was the business of the Criminal Department, and he didn't care very much, so he ordered: "Give the person to the Criminal Department." Then he turned up and down, and turned back.

"Lord Wang, shall we go back?" Mo Qin was a little confused, he had come to Chudi, didn't he go to open the city gate?

King Yong nodded, and before he could speak, an arrow burst out of the air and came straight to the door in front of him.

Before Fauber left, his eyes rose with murderous intent, and the sword in his hand met the arrow that broke through the air, the arrow was missed, and it hit the trunk of the tree, and the arrow was all submerged in the tree, which showed the great strength.

Fauber's hands were trembling slightly, and if that arrow was shot at the Yongwang, he would surely be killed on the spot.

"Lord Wang, let's go!" A man in black flew from the depths of the dense forest, but there was no shadow.

The leader of the secret guard beside the Queen Mother, she flew to King Yong's side, and said to Fu Bo sharply: "Escort the prince back to Beijing!" Fast! A large number of people are about to come as soon as they stick incense, and our people can't support it. ”

Fu Bo understood the meaning of her words, the people sent by the Queen Mother to secretly protect the Yongwang suffered heavy casualties!

"Lord Wang, go." He didn't care too much, so he pulled the reins of the king of Yong, and with a flick of his whip, the horse of the king galloped forward.

And Mo Qin and the other government soldiers had already turned over their horses, protected King Yong in the middle, and went straight to the capital.

As for the old man, Mo Qin did not take him away, and with a twist of his hand, he sent him to the western sky.

Wuying seemed to be injured, her face was pale, and the black cloth covering her cheeks did not know where to go, after King Yong left, she led dozens of black-clothed people to stop on the official road, and after a while, she saw a large number of soldiers holding bows and arrows, dense, all over the mountains.

As far as the eye can see, there are at least tens of thousands! A team of tens of thousands of people, hidden so deep that she was injured before she found out!

Who hid so many soldiers in Chudi, and hid them so well!

"Head, we can't stop it." A man in black said coldly.

Wuying spat out, his eyes were full of murder, and the anger around him seemed to be about to turn into substance, "If you can't stop it, stop it, try to buy time for the prince." ”

"This is not King Yan's soldiers." Someone suddenly said something that made everyone feel terrified.

The appearance of other soldiers in the fiefdom of King Yan is to rebel! It's still so well hidden, who can have such a skill?

No one would answer their questions, and they didn't need anyone else to answer them, because the soldiers ahead had stopped.

The formation was formed, and the bowstrings were drawn.

After the soldiers, there was a small general, he looked at Wuying and the others indifferently, his face was gloomy to the extreme, "Release the arrow!" ”

With his order, countless arrows burst out of the air, densely packed, like raindrops, making people unable to hide.

Shadowless took off his cloak behind him and swept it, blocking most of the bows and arrows, but there was more to come.

King Yong held the reins tightly and asked Mo Qin beside him, "Can they come back alive?" ”

Mo Qin was silent, blaming himself in his heart, they had no horses, they were wounded, and it was obvious that they had been ambushed, and it was difficult to survive.

It's just that what Mo Qin didn't expect was that they ran for several nights, and they were safe all the way, so King Yong sent Fu Bo to Luoyang as usual, the victims couldn't be ignored, and he didn't stop him, Fu Bo also knew King Yong's temper, and he would definitely not ignore those disaster victims, and King Jing was obviously buying people's hearts, how could this person's heart let him take it alone?

But as soon as he left, King Yong and the others saw that they could return to the capital in just a few hours, but they encountered an ambush again.

"White Camellia?" King Yong's gaze fell on the black-clothed man opposite, and they all had white camellia embroidered on their chests. (To be continued.) )
