Chapter 522: Out of the City

Dou Yanxiao was very sober, but she was still full of questions. What the hell is going on? As for making Shu Jin so anxious, waking her up in the middle of the night and leaving immediately?

But out of trust, she didn't immediately get to the bottom of it, just went back to the house to find a cloak and bring a weapon and followed Shu Jin out of the yard.

When she got out of the yard, Dou Yanxiao found that several of her subordinates who often followed Shu Jin were waiting outside, and when they saw her follow Shu Jin out, they didn't talk nonsense, so they simply took two steps to catch up. Shu Jin and Dou Yanxiao sat up separately, and the person who carried the chariot immediately ran quickly.

This shocked Dou Yanxiao. The step is lifted by two people, and the balance is not particularly easy to control, especially when you want to travel quickly, it is especially easy to bump. However, Shu Jin's subordinates were completely different, their speed was very fast, and it was rare that when they sat on the top, they didn't feel particularly bumpy.

I'm afraid that these people are also highly skilled, right?

At this time, there was no time to ask anything in detail, so he could only let Shu Jin's subordinates carry him away. Soon, the two of them arrived at the place where the carriage was stored, and there were already carriages and horses waiting there, and when they got into the carriage, Shu Jin's subordinates drove the two of them out of the Protector's Mansion quietly through the side door.

"Shu Jin, where are we going? What the hell is going on? Dou Yanxiao sat in the car and went out of the house, and at first she looked out, trying to identify the direction, but on the streets of the imperial city late at night, it was dark and silent, only the sound of the carriage they were riding in, and she couldn't tell the direction after a long time. So I asked anxiously.

"I got the news that the emperor was attacked on the way back from the autumn hunt, and when the scene was chaotic, a crazy horse knocked over the emperor's royal carriage. The emperor is now seriously injured and in a coma. ”

Shu Jin replied.

"What?!" Dou Yanxiao was surprised and said, "Then, why haven't you heard any movement during that day...... That Jiang Cangjin ...... them"

"Don't worry, the Lord Protector is all right. Now it's not just you, I'm afraid that the vast majority of the officials and people in Changdu have not heard the news, and the emperor blocked it as soon as he was injured. However, the emperor has not woken up so far. I'm afraid it's not good. There are many doctors who travel with the army in the Tai Hospital, but after some consumption of the hunt, the herbs brought with the army are no longer complete. So now the hunting team is hurrying to send the emperor back for treatment. ”

"So, what's going on?" Dou Yanxiao is not a woman who is ignorant of the world, if it is just what Shu Jin said, why did they get up in the middle of the night and run out of their mansion?

"Yes. Something has happened. Qi Zhao took the first step back to Changdu with the people of the Zuo family. After they arrived, they did not immediately convene the Imperial Hospital to study the emperor's condition, nor did they immediately notify the Praetorian Guards to take over, but took a military talisman from a clan member of the royal family, privately transferred the forbidden army and a member of the Wuwei Battalion, and went to martial law various city gates, and they also sent troops to besiege the Yongwang Mansion. ”

Wai Yong Wangfu? Dou Yanxiao frowned when she heard this, and said:

"What are they doing here?"

"If the emperor didn't survive this time. Then, the crown prince is the prince. It should be logical to ascend the throne, but the prince of Qi Zhao secretly rushed back to the capital at this time, and closed the city gate privately and surrounded the Yongwang Mansion. Isn't it clear what he's going to do? ”

"Aren't the two old men of King Yong and the Duke of Protector in danger?" Dou Yanxiao exclaimed.

King Yong's relationship with the old protector Jiang Junzheng has been getting better and better recently, and today is a coincidence, King Yong just invited Jiang Junzheng to go to King Yong's mansion, and Jiang Junzheng is staying in the palace today.

King Yong is in addition to the emperor, the most important clan in the royal family, if Qi Zhao wants to do something, then being able to coerce King Yong will naturally have a big bargaining chip, now that the palace is besieged, it must be difficult for the people inside to fly with wings, not only King Yong, but also the old protector of the country will also be in danger.

Who knows, Shu Jin shook his head without the slightest worry:

"Don't worry, since I've got the news, how can I let grandpa put them in danger."

"Huh?" Dou Yanxiao was stunned, and then figured it out.

Yes, Shu Jin has always been rigorous in her work, and since she already knew it in advance, she would naturally arrange King Yong and the others properly.

"Oh, that's good. So where are we going now? ”

"We're going out of town." Shu Jin said, "The Changdu City is indeed very large, but once Qi Zhao controls the forbidden army and the Wuwei camp, he will definitely think of controlling the ministers and families of the various provinces." The Duke of Huguo is a military general, and Yan Feng's uncle and others are also the main generals in charge of the hunting team, if we don't leave first, it will become Qi Zhao's bargaining chip to contain them. ”

"However, at this time, there are martial law soldiers at the city gate, how can we get out?"

"Don't worry, I have my own way."

Shu Jin said confidently.

The carriage galloped quickly into the night, and in order to reduce the sound, the horse's legs were wrapped in cloth, and Ah Wu and several other members of the Spark followed the carriage on horseback. A group of several people walked through the streets and alleys towards the West City Gate, and halfway through, a group of more than a dozen people joined them.

"Shu Jin!"

When Dou Yanxiao heard someone shouting Shu Jin's name, she saw Shu Jin open the curtain and look out, the carriage was parallel to another carriage, and the people in the other car were also lifting the curtain.

"Dr. Zhuo?"

Dou Yanxiao knew him, and on the day he got married, he was still the pulse he helped Shu Jin diagnose, and confirmed the news that Shu Jin was pregnant. I heard that although he is young in the Imperial Doctor's Office, his medical skills are very good, and many people in the palace have designated him to see him. After she got married, Shu Jin has always been seen by the doctor invited by the house, and she has not seen this famous Dr. Zhuo come to the door, why is he so familiar with Shu Jin? It turned out to be Shu Jin's name!

"Is it going well?" Ignoring the question in Dou Yanxiao's heart, Shu Jin opened his mouth to ask Zhuo Tong.

"Well, everything that should be prepared is ready."

"That's good."

"Do you have anything wrong with you?"

"I'm fine, don't worry."

"Good. Then let's get out of the city first. ”

The two didn't talk much, and each lowered the curtain.

The two teams were combined into a team, and a team of more than 20 people formed by two carriages and more than ten fast horses, and soon arrived near the West City Gate.

"Shang Qiang. There you go. ”

Just as the city gate was getting closer and closer. Dou Yanxiao was looking at the closed city gate and worrying about how to get out, Shu Jin spoke.

"Okay." A male voice outside the car agreed, and then a horse's hoofs were heard, and they left the group and walked towards the city gate.

Dou Yanxiao lifted the curtain of the car and looked over from a distance, and saw that as soon as the man approached, a soldier at the city gate stopped them.

In the middle of the night, not to mention the city gates that have been strengthened now, it is usual. It's hard to get out of the city without a special token at this time. Dou Yanxiao saw what the man said to the guards guarding the door, and then the soldier paused and ran to the city wall.

There is an observation deck on the inner side of the wall. Normally, the guards in charge of the gate would stay there, and the soldiers would just run there. A moment later, a man who looked like a military commander followed the soldiers down the city wall. came to Shang Qiang. Shang Qiang reached into his arms. When he brought something out to show him, the guard looked at it, and his body stiffened, and then he saluted the token, and then waved his hand, and shouted:

"Open the gates!"

The guard shouted, and the soldiers guarding the gate did not hesitate any longer, and someone went to put the drawbridge. Seven or eight other people went up and took down the deadbolt, and then they worked both sides. The west gate slowly opened.

Shang Qiang gestured to the guard, turned over on his horse, and then beat his horse and walked back.

"Alright, let's go."

As soon as Ah Wu and the others hit the horses, they drove the carriage towards the city gate.

Dou Yanxiao opened the curtain of the carriage and looked out, and when she passed by the guards guarding the door, her heart was in her throat, but she saw that the guards were just looking at their carriage fixedly, without the slightest intention of blocking it.

With a "bang", the drawbridge landed, and the two carriages drove up one after another almost at the same time as the drawbridge landed, and then passed quickly.

"Raise the drawbridge! Close the gates! ”

Dou Yanxiao listened to the voice of the gatekeeper faintly in the night breeze, and then turned back, the drawbridge had slowly risen, and the gate was slowly closed.

"That's it? This is coming out? ”

Dou Yanxiao's hand clenching the sword loosened. She thought it would be a little thrilling.

"Don't worry, the soldiers guarding the door don't know what is going on, but when he arrives at the guard, he turns around and is being asked, and he will only think that we are from the Zuo family."

"People from the Zuo family?" Dou Yanxiao asked incredulously.

However, Shu Jin just nodded, and did not mean to elaborate.

"Okay, it's okay to get out of the city, grandpa they will go through different city gates, let's go to them tomorrow again. Before dawn, let's take a rest. ”

Shu Jin said, patted the soft pillow in the car, took out two blankets from the secret compartment on the wall of the car, gave one to Dou Yanxiao, took one to cover himself, and lay down while talking.

This carriage is the most spacious and comfortable in the house, although it is an extraordinary period, but under the premise of not being able to enter the space, Shu Jin does not intend to wronged himself.

Dou Yanxiao took the blanket and couldn't come back to her senses, and when she saw Shu Jin lying down, she also lay down. The car is actually very dim, that is, I can only see the silhouette of the other party clearly, listening to Shu Jin's voice as usual, I don't know if she is as calm as she shows?

Dou Yanxiao was born in the military, even if something like this happened suddenly, it would not make her panic, but Shu Jin's reaction surprised her very much.

While everyone was in the dark, she had already received the news that the emperor was seriously injured; When no one noticed Qi Zhao's conspiracy, she had already arranged the retreat of many people one step ahead; Her sedan chairmen seem to have unfathomable kung fu; She could easily knock on the gates of heavily guarded cities......

I have always known that this Xiangtang County Lord is very powerful, she can become one of the upstarts of this great dynasty from a peasant girl from a small mountain village, and become one of the only female officials, and her business is an unknown amount of money earned every day, but she never knew that she still has such power!

"Don't worry, go to sleep."

Shu Jin's voice came, interrupting Dou Yanxiao's thoughts.

"Oh, good."

Dou Yanxiao came back to her senses, agreed, thought about it, and decided not to think too much about it first, and seize the time to rest.

If someone chases after her, or encounters an interception head-on, she has to protect Shu Jin. Now Shu Jin is in danger, her belly is scary, no matter how comfortable this carriage is, it is not as comfortable as the bed in the house, it is easy to rest well, if there is an accident on the next road, she will be sorry for everyone in the Protector's Mansion.

Thinking like this, Dou Yanxiao forced herself to relax her nerves and quickly fall asleep.

At night, the forest is filled with layers of water vapor, and at dawn, in the faint light, the water vapor is thick. A group of people appeared in the night, rushed into the mist of the forest, and the mist flew up in wisps, rippling around the group like a light veil, and then after the people left, they slowly flowed together and converged into a new net.

"Phew!" Ah Wu snorted softly and grabbed the reins of the horse. The carriage stopped, and at the same time, figures in the forest not far away flickered, and soon more than forty people walked out of the forest.

These people were all dressed in soap-colored clothes, with masks of various colors on their faces, and weapons around their waists, and in this dim dawn, there was a bit of slaughter.

"Boom!" Dou Yanxiao woke up as soon as the carriage stopped, and as soon as he lifted the curtain and saw the more than forty people outside, he immediately picked up the sword, the sword body was unsheathed, and he was ready to fight.

"Hey, don't panic, your own people."

Just before Dou Yanxiao ran out, Shu Jin grabbed her. After saying that, he got up, lifted the curtain of the carriage and looked out.

"Huh?"

Dou Yanxiao was stunned for a moment, and then understood.

As if in response to Shu Jin, the forty or so people saw the carriage stop steadily, Shu Jin lifted the curtain, and knelt on one knee in unison:

"Master!"

Shu Jin glanced at the leader of the dozens of people and nodded:

"Get up, it's important to hurry."

"Yes!" Everyone responded, and then got up, and soon, someone pulled out dozens of horses from the forest, and as the carriage of Shu Jin and the others started, the demon and the others were also divided into two groups, some leading the way in front, and others in the back.

Dou Yanxiao looked at the posture of those people riding horses, and immediately saw that these dozens of people were all strong and skilled players, and their movements were uniform, they looked like soldiers from the army, but their weapons were different, and they obviously did not look like kung fu trained in the army.

Could it be the guards sent by King Yong?

Dou Yanxiao guessed. After all, King Yong also held military power for a long time, and later heard that after he returned military power to the emperor, he also trained a group of highly skilled guards. Perhaps, these are the people in front of you, right?
