356, assassinated halfway

ruined the good things of his sister and brother-in-law, Nangong Ergongzi was very shy and didn't dare to appear in front of the two of them for two consecutive days. Of course, this did not rule out the result of hearing about the tragic fate of the guards in the courtyard. However, Shang Rong brought good news from Shang Nian'er, and I don't know what Shang Nian'er said about his father. actually agreed to accept Shang Qiao as a righteous son. Nangong Mo was naturally not ambiguous, and directly held a ceremony for the two to recognize their relatives while the iron was hot, and Nangong Mo and Wei Junmo were both witnesses. When Shang Rong finished drinking the tea offered by Shang Qiao, Nangong Mo clearly saw Shang Nian'er secretly relieved.

Obviously, Shang Rong's current state and situation, Shang Nian'er also knew about it, so he tried his best to make his father more worried. Now that his daughter and son-in-law are here, and he has recognized his son, Shang Rong will slowly stop thinking about the affairs of the court, right?

With Shang Qiao's righteous son, Shang Rong is really much more energetic. As if he had suddenly found something to do, he brought Shang Qiao to him every year to teach him martial arts, and occasionally taught him a little bit of military enlightenment or something. Sometimes even Nangong Mo can't find anyone to find Shang Qiao, but seeing that the old and the young are all enjoying teaching and learning, Nangong Mo is happy and relieved a lot for these two.

In the carriage that swayed forward, Princess Changping looked down at the two little babies lying in the cradle with wide eyes and obviously very energetic, and a loving smile appeared on her lips. Mama Lan, who was sitting in front of Princess Changping and waiting, couldn't help but smile and said, "Princess, you can see how energetic the little boy and the little lady are. ”

Princess Changping couldn't help but smile, and then couldn't help but sigh softly, "These two children are also miserable, how can ordinary children's children follow us so much." ”

Seeing that the princess felt sorry for her grandchildren, Mama Lan hurriedly persuaded: "The two little masters are smart, they know that they are going to see their parents, and they don't cry or make trouble at all along the way, which shows that they will be productive when they grow up in the future." As if hearing someone complimenting him, he giggled in his cradle holding a light red swaddling baby.

An An, who was wrapped in light blue swaddling clothes next to her, heard her sister's laughter, blinked her little mouth and yawned a little.

Princess Changping possessed and picked up An An and patted it gently, "Xiao An An is sleepy?" Grandmother hugged you to sleep. These two children looked at Bian'an a little naughty. "When I was born, I was better, but when I grew up, I could see that I was obviously more active than An An. As long as it's okay or my sister doesn't cry or make trouble, An An is quiet all day. On the contrary, I always like someone to tease and play, crying, laughing and laughing.

Mama Lan nodded and said, "It's good for the girl's family to be lively." Our eldest lady and aunt are all quiet people. ”

Hearing this, Princess Changping couldn't help but smile, Mama Lan hid at home to take care of housekeeping, and didn't know that Jun'er and Flawless were indeed not active personalities, but if these two people made trouble, it would be turned upside down

The carriage trembled, and Princess Changping hurriedly hugged An An tightly. Zhishu Mingqin, who was waiting on the side, also hurriedly helped the cradle.

The voice of the guard came from outside, "The road is a little uneven, are the princess and the two little masters okay?" ”

Princess Changping said: "It's okay, where is it?" ”

"Back to the princess, I will be able to leave Xizhou at about noon tomorrow. At that time, the county lord and the prince will send someone to Yuezhou to meet the princess. ”

Princess Changping nodded, "That's good." ”

"Fifth sister." Outside the carriage, His Royal Highness King Ning, the Seventeenth Prince, rode over in a carriage, leaned over and untied the curtains on the side of the carriage and said, "Fifth Emperor Sister, there are some urgent matters to deal with in Xizhou, I'm just afraid that I won't be able to send you out of the customs." "Speaking of which, this time King Ning can be regarded as giving enough face to the Yan Wangfu. Since the convoy entered Xizhou, King Ning took the royal guards to personally escort Princess Changping and her party all the way. With King Ning personally escorting, naturally no one had the courage to do anything on the territory of Xizhou, and the journey was very smooth.

Princess Changping was naturally very sympathetic to this, nodded and smiled: "What did the seventeenth brother say?" It's time for me to thank you, you've worked hard all the way. Hengzhuo, let's go out of the customs tomorrow, if you have something to do, go back quickly, don't delay. "Princess Changping is really not familiar with this royal brother, she was already married when King Ning was born, and she didn't even say a few words except for the occasional palace banquet when she arrived since she was a child. People don't care about the huge palace, and it is really face-saving to escort them along the way.

King Ning had a slightly apologetic look on his face, "There is something going on at the border, please forgive the fifth sister." Since he promised the fourth brother to escort Princess Changping, he will not give up halfway. Since you want to make people admit their feelings, they naturally have to do a full set, not to mention that if Princess Changping has an accident in Xizhou, it is difficult for him to say whether Wei Junmo's kid will trouble him. However, the matter at the border is really urgent, and it cannot be delayed in any way.

Princess Changping smiled: "This is the right matter, go quickly." There is only one way left, what are so many of us afraid of? ”

In this way, the younger brother took his leave first. Fifth sister take care. ”

"Seventeenth brother, take care."

Things were really a little anxious, and after the Ning Dynasty and Princess Changping gave up their hands, they took someone to lift the reins and quickly ran towards the direction of Xizhou City.

Princess Changping and her entourage continued to go south, and at ten o'clock the next morning, they had already arrived at a place only thirty miles away from the border of Yuezhou. Seeing that it was almost noon, the affairs came to ask Princess Changping, "Princess, there are still thirty miles to go out, why don't you come down and rest first and have lunch before hurrying?" ”

Princess Changping thought about it and nodded in agreement. Rushing early in the morning, not only was she and her entourage hungry, but the two babies were also a little uncomfortable with a bumpy ride. Helping the girl's hand get out of the car, there are already people preparing lunch not far away. The formation of more than 1,000 people stationed in an open field is quite spectacular.

Princess Changping waved her hand and motioned for the two nurses to get into the car and feed the two children. Mama Lan took Zhishu and Mingqin to guard the two children, and Princess Changping walked to the side and cleaned up the clean place and sat down to rest.

"Wow wow..."Not long after he sat down, the baby's cry came from the carriage. At first, one child was crying, and soon another followed. The crying of wow came and went, and Princess Changping was distressed when she heard it, and hurriedly put down the dry food in her hand and ran towards the carriage.

"What's going on?"

In the carriage, Mama Lan untied the curtain and poked her head out, and said helplessly: "Back to the princess, I don't know what's wrong, the two little masters suddenly started crying." "Along the way, the two little babies didn't know how well-behaved they were, but they got to the place that was about to get close to Yuezhou. Mama Lan also looked carefully, the two nurses were careful, and they didn't make the two children uncomfortable.

"Let the doctor take a look!" For the sake of the two babies and the body of Princess Changping, King Yan specially sent two reliable doctors to accompany him. Originally, he wanted the young man to go in person, but King Yan was about to go on the expedition, but his physical condition was a little worried, so the young man could only stay temporarily.

"Yes, Princess."

"Wait, be careful!" The commander of the guards standing beside Princess Changping suddenly spoke, and at the same time kicked out the guards who wanted to run to call the doctor. The moment the guard was kicked out, a hidden weapon burst through the air and landed in front of the place where he had been standing. If he hadn't been kicked away, he would have been the only one who had been hit by this hidden weapon.

"Protect the princess! Protect the two little masters! ”

The guards who were still guarding the surroundings immediately surrounded them, and in a moment they surrounded the carriage and Princess Changping.

"It's you again, isn't Gong Yuchen dead yet?" Seeing the black-clothed men coming around, the guard commander said coldly. He also belongs to one of the twenty-eight residences of the Zixiao Palace, and although his martial arts are not as good as Xingwei, they are by no means worse than Jian Qiuyang and Liu Han. Naturally, he also knew about the grievances between his son-in-law and the water pavilion. It's just that this Gong Yuchen is like a rat hiding in the gutter, coming out to harass him from time to time, which is simply annoying.

The black-clothed man in the lead sneered and replied unceremoniously, "Young Master Wei is not dead, how can our pavilion master die?" Leave the two children and let you go. ”

The commander of the guards sneered, and didn't even bother to reply to him. The guards around him also raised their vigilance.

The man in black didn't care either, and said with a smile: "Do you think... Are we the only ones who will attack you? ”

"And... Xiao Qianye, His Royal Highness King Ning was transferred by you? The guard commander's face changed slightly, and he said in a deep voice.

"You're not stupid, but it's a pity that it's too late to think about it now. Do it, don't hurt the two children. ”

"Yes!" A group of black-clothed men responded in unison and rushed towards the guards.

"Protect the princess!" Several guards blocked Princess Changping behind her, and the rest of the guards greeted her one after another.

Whether it is the number or strength, these people of the Water Pavilion actually do not have the upper hand. But the man in black who led the way was right, the people who wanted to attack them were not the only ones in the Water Pavilion, and soon another group of people appeared around. These people are also dressed in black, but they are completely different from the people in the Water Pavilion, and the only thing they have in common is that their martial arts are very good.

Princess Changping stood on the edge of the carriage and watched the chaotic melee in front of her with some anxiety. The thick smell of blood wafted through the air, making the two babies even more uneasy. Although the crying stopped, she whimpered from time to time, and Princess Changping was distressed when she heard it.

"Princess, please get in the car, let's go first." The guards beside him said in a deep voice.

Princess Changping glanced at the battlefield and nodded.

got into the carriage, and soon the carriage moved. Princess Changping saw from the side of the curtain that the battlefield of the scuffle was quickly left behind by the carriage, and at least half of the guards also pulled out and followed the carriage. The remaining guards stayed behind to stop the Assassins.

The carriage no longer moved as gently as before, but galloped quickly. It was also very bumpy to sit in the carriage, so I had no choice but to pick up the two babies and hold them in my arms. Looking at the uncomfortable little appearance in her arms, Princess Changping was sad and wanted to cry.

"It's okay, it's undue. I'll be able to see my father and mother soon. ”

A tender little hand held one of Princess Changping's fingers, and her big watery eyes blinked, but she didn't cry. Princess Changping breathed a sigh of relief, and a faint smile appeared on her lips.

The carriage rushed out of ten miles in one breath and could only stop helplessly. Without asking what was going on, Princess Changping had already heard the sound of a feathered arrow hitting the carriage. This time it was obviously someone from the imperial court.

"Eldest princess, please get out of the car and see you."

After hesitating for a moment, Princess Changping handed the child in her arms to the Zhishu next to her before getting up and getting out of the carriage. The road ahead had been cut off, and a middle-aged man with a large group of people armed with weapons and bows and arrows was blocking the front. Although they were all dressed in the clothes of ordinary people, Princess Changping could tell that these people were all palace guards and soldiers in the army.

"Who's coming?" Princess Changping said in a deep voice.

The middle-aged man led by arched his hand and said: "Zhao Fei, the deputy commander of the Thirteen Guards of Jinling, has seen the eldest princess. ”

Princess Changping said lightly: "Since it is the Thirteen Guards of Jinling, what are you doing in Xizhou if you are not in Jinling?" ”

Zhao Fei said respectfully: "The minister was ordered to invite the princess and the two little ladies to return to Beijing. ”

Princess Changping sneered, "What if this palace shouldn't." ”

Zhao Fei sighed, "Why should the princess be embarrassed by Weichen? In this case, if there is any offense, please ask the princess to forgive the sin. After speaking, he instructed the people around him, "Except for the princess and the two children, you can't kill them!" ”

The guards around Princess Changping all sneered, don't you want to kill? If it weren't for protecting the princess and the two little masters, it wouldn't be certain who would kill whom. Isn't the Thirteen Guards of Jinling amazing?

There was another scuffle in front of her, but Princess Changping was calm on her face, but she was very anxious in her heart. I don't know how many people there are on the other side, if this continues, they can be consumed to death on this road of more than 30 miles.

With the help of archers, this time the situation was even more dangerous than before. If they weren't worried about shooting Princess Changping and the two children, they were afraid that those bows and arrows would be thrown directly into the carriage and they would be in a hurry. But now they can no longer divide their forces to escort Princess Changping forward, it is obvious that the other party wants to separate them, and there must be a lot of ambush in front. If there is not enough manpower to run over, Princess Changping and the two little masters will be sent directly to others.

The other party's men and horses seem to be increasing, not only the soldiers and horses of the imperial court, but also gradually the people of the Water Pavilion have begun to join. On the contrary, their side was becoming more and more difficult, and one soldier took advantage of the gap to rush towards the carriage, but was soon slashed by the sword of the man behind him. The blood donation happened to splash at the feet of Princess Changping, and Princess Changping's face turned pale, and she couldn't make a sound.

Seeing this, several masters of the Water Pavilion roared and made a code. They all abandoned their opponents and pounced on the carriage. These people were apparently ordered to grab the two children at any cost. The surrounding guards immediately pounced, and a group of people fought in front of the carriage.

"Be careful!" Princess Changping exclaimed, but saw a black shadow rushing quickly. With a swing of his sword, the guards beside him raised his hand and grabbed it towards the carriage.

"Look for death!" A cold voice sounded, and the hand that the shadow had gone out of the car was immediately retracted before it could touch the carriage. The next moment, a sharp sword light fell, and the man in black flew back a few steps and stared at the person who came, and said coldly: "Star Danger." ”

He was dressed in black, but he had strange gray hair. With a cold face, holding a long sword, isn't it Xingwei, who is it?

The man in black sneered and said, "I'll just say, how could Wei Junmo not send you for such an important matter, it turned out that you were hiding." "Although Xingwei was not famous in the past, he was really the first person under the Wei Jun Mo of Zixiao Palace. Even Lin Changfeng, who was hanging the hall master of the Zixiao Hall at that time, was slightly inferior to him. The task of escorting Princess Changping and the two children is simply strange not to let Xingwei come.

The Star Danger Sword stood on the side of the carriage, the expression on his face not changing in the slightest. Just raised his arm, and the long sword in his hand pointed directly at the man in black opposite.

"Take your people, get out."

"Huh." The man in black seemed to have heard something funny, "Do you think... Can you fight off so many people? Wei Junmo himself may still be a little sure. ”

Xingwei didn't speak, but another voice rang out, "He can't, do you think the old man can?" If you don't want to go, don't go. A blue voice floated on the roof of the carriage, and the middle-aged man with a clear face looked coldly at the scuffle in front of him, looking indifferent.

"It's you." The man in black's eyes changed slightly.

"Mr. Wenren?" Princess Changping was overjoyed, although she had never seen this gentleman make a move, she had heard a lot. I heard that Jun'er and Flawless got married, and the two of them couldn't beat this gentleman together, which shows that the other party's martial arts are strong.

Uncle Wenren looked down at the person in front of him with cold eyes, "The old man has never found the kid surnamed Gong, it's better to... You're coming to sue the old man? ”

The man in black took a few steps back vigilantly, and Uncle Wenren sneered and said, "I said, since you don't want to leave, don't go." A sword light burst out of the air, drawing a brilliant light. The man in black shrank his eyes and quickly stepped back. Unfortunately, no matter how fast he was, he couldn't get his opponent's sword, and the next moment the person who was still in the carriage had already arrived in front of him, and the tip of the sword was only two feet away from him. His heart trembled, and he grabbed one of the soldiers beside him in front of him, and then quickly turned and ran outside.

Uncle Shi sneered, the blade pierced the soldiers in front of him, and casually pulled out a sword qi and swung it out, bringing a bloody light and a miserable scream again.

The change in the situation was only in a blink of an eye, and with the addition of Uncle Shi and Xing Wei, the original disadvantaged side immediately reversed the situation. The spiritual oppression brought by Uncle Shi is obviously greater than the damage. Just looking at the fact that everywhere he went, the enemies were more neat and orderly than cutting wheat with a knife, and one couldn't help but feel frightened. Under such a gap, how many people can have the backbone and courage to fight against him?

Seeing that nothing could be done, the commander of the thirteen guards of Jinling had no choice but to order a retreat in a fit of rage. This time, they underestimated the enemy, and they never thought that the other party would have such a master. This kind of martial arts is only higher than the legendary Wei Gongzi. No wonder Wei Gongzi and King Yan were relieved to let Princess Changping and the two children go on the road. At the same time, a trace of anger flashed in Zhao Fei's heart: they were being used again! It is impossible for that person not to know that the other party has such a master, but he has not revealed it to them at all!

T
