Chapter 523 Chiayi Lieutenant
While he was marching, Shu Jin got up and sat on the quilt, and suddenly shouted:
"Enchantment."
Soon a hoof sound sounded beside the car, and a voice answered:
"Master."
"You've all changed your clothes, it's so neat, it's so obvious."
"Yes."
The sound outside the car answered, and then the sound of horses' hooves walked away.
The Devil quickly passed the order on. Dou Yanxiao lifted the curtain curiously, and saw that those people were just using their legs to control the horse, neatly tearing off the outer robes on their bodies, and then turned the clothes over and put them back on.
"Uh......"
At this time, looking at them again, although the clothes are still similar in style, they look different, and even because they have different ways of tying their belts, they look even more different. Dou Yanxiao looked at it and called it.
"Hehe, this method works very well, right?" Shu Jin said on the side.
"You came up with the idea?"
"Well, it's just the idea of making the clothes so that you can wear them on both sides, it's not difficult, is it?"
"Isn't it difficult, it's just that ordinary people want to get this method."
Dou Yanxiao said.
The two of them let the carriage take them all the way to the next town, and after a pause, they had a casual lunch, and then continued on their way.
Although Dou Yanxiao was also anxious to avoid the pursuers and join Jiang Cangjin at this time, she was really afraid that Shu Jin's body would not be able to bear it if she was so bumpy.
Fortunately, Shu Jin's condition looks good. Dou Yanxiao put all her blankets under her and told her to lie down more if she was fine.
The group went all the way to the west. Every village and town is bypassed except for the necessary supplies, and even if it is necessary to enter, it does not stop at all, and rushes day and night. It wasn't until three days later that we finally arrived at a small village near the county seat of Chiayi.
When he saw King Yong and Jiang Junzheng appearing intact in front of him, Dou Yanxiao was really relieved. After talking to each other for a few words, they packed up and continued to hurry, rushing to Chiayi City.
At this time, Dou Yanxiao realized that her previous guess was wrong.
King Yong and Jiang Junzheng also have more than a dozen people around them who are called Shu Jin's masters. She also thought that the guards around Shu Jin were all people from King Yong. But seeing the leader's attitude towards King Yong, Dou Yanxiao knew that these people would definitely not be the people assigned to Shu Jin by King Yong.
Although said. Businessmen will more or less ask some people with strong kung fu to escort or act as guardians, but the kung fu of these people under Shu Jin is obviously not an ordinary style of Jianghu, and the strength of these people should not be underestimated. I don't know how Shu Jin subdued them.
"Where are we going?" Dou Yanxiao observed the route. Asked with some doubts.
On the way, in order to avoid encountering the people of the Zuo family or the second prince, they generally do not enter large towns, but at this moment, looking at their direction of travel, it is obvious that they are heading towards Chiayi City. If you get anywhere, you can't get around it.
Another reason why she didn't want to go there was that Dou Yanxiao didn't know too much about other places, but in Chiayi City, there was a garrison of 8,000 people. The captain who led the army was even more of a member of the Zuo family's faction. They slipped away quietly in Changdu, but presumably the second prince and the Zuo family would soon find out that they were missing. Perhaps, at this time, all the people in Chiayi City have already gotten the news, waiting to capture them alive, right? Isn't it self-defeating to go into the city at this time?
"Don't worry. It's okay. ”
Shu Jin leaned on the big cushion and said lazily, that confident tone made Dou Yanxiao stunned for a moment, and then calmed down.
Also, she has also been on the battlefield to kill the enemy, and although the future is uncertain at this time, there is nothing to worry about, right? The most taboo thing in a war is that the military is unstable, and you can't panic before you have done anything, right?
Actually, to be honest, Dou Yanxiao is just a little concerned now.
She has been practicing martial arts and following her father and brother at the border, so she habitually wants to protect others, since marrying Jiang Cangjin and becoming the wife of the Protector Prince, she naturally regards the people who protect the Protector's Mansion as her own responsibility. Shu Jin's current state always makes it difficult for her not to worry, so under the sudden changes, she is a little overly worried.
But now that she has figured it out at this moment, Dou Yanxiao has calmed down, and she is also on guard from time to time on the next road. Anyway, there are a lot of Shu Jin's subordinates around, so she will seize every opportunity to recuperate, maybe she will be able to use her place in Chiayi City, so she will take care of her spirit first.
There were three carriages in the group, and the others were also riding horses, although the team was not huge, but in this era when ordinary people could not afford to raise horses, it was still very eye-catching to walk on the street.
So as soon as they entered the Chiayi City Gate, they were stopped by a centurion guarding the gate.
King Yong opened the curtain of his carriage as soon as it was stopped.
"Bold! Even the frame of this king dares to stop! ”
When King Yong drank, the centurion looked at King Yong in a daze, and then took the others out.
"Centurion Su Li has seen His Royal Highness King Yong, I don't know if King Yong's arrival is far away, and I hope to forgive my sins!"
"Don't talk nonsense, take me to see you Captain Hu!"
That Captain Hu is Hu Dehou, the general of the defending army in Chiayi City.
Anjuku Prefecture has two great generals stationed in the east and west to guard the state capital, and the highest general of the county garrison under it is the school captain. The general named Hu Houde is a member of the Zuo family's faction.
The centurion was stunned for a moment, then bowed and said:
"Lord Wang, please wait a moment, I will go and inform Captain Hu to come and see the prince."
"Nonsense! How can I make this king wait here for him to come to me? If he doesn't come for three or five hours, am I going to wait here until he comes?
Cut off the nonsense and take me to him! ”
"This ......," the centurion hesitated.
Before he could speak, there was a sudden flash of cold light on the side, and the centurion felt a chill on his neck.
The cold voice of the demon rang out:
"Offending the prince is not punishable! Lead the way. Or die. ”
As he spoke, he moved the sword in his hand, and the meaning was very obvious.
The centurion's heart shook. Although he was talking to King Yong just now, he was talking to him. But he didn't completely relax his guard, but when the person next to him approached, when he pulled out the sword, he didn't even feel it at all!
"The last general will not dare!" The hero did not suffer the immediate loss, and the centurion hurriedly begged for mercy.
King Yong snorted coldly and said:
"Don't lead the way yet!"
"Yes! Please come with the little one! ”
The centurion changed his words neatly. Then he turned around and walked with everyone in the county.
In the corner that no one noticed, the centurion secretly made a color in one direction. A man who looked like a woodcutter nodded slightly, and then walked briskly in one direction quietly.
"Ah Wu."
Shu Jin got up and leaned against the car door. Whispered.
"The evil is over."
"Okay." Shu Jin slowly lay back again.
Dou Yanxiao looked at Shu Jin from the side, and instantly didn't know what to say. How did she lie in the carriage and be so keen? Can even the woodcutter notice?
The centurion who led the way wondered if he was deliberately delaying time. He didn't even come on horseback, but walked slowly on the ground, chatting with the demon who walked beside him as if nothing happened.
"Is this brother coming to Chiayi City for the first time?"
“……”
"I guess so. When that brother has nothing to do later, I can be the boss. Please have a look here, brother.
Chiayi City is on the other side. There are several city gates, and we only have two city gates in Chiayi City, east and west, so we have more people coming and going here every day. ”
“……”
"Where did my brother come from? Came from the east gate, did you come from Changdu? ”
“……”
"Speaking of which, more than a month ago, the emperor's hunting team also passed from here, and I also participated in the pick-up, and being able to witness the face of heaven is really a blessing from the third generation!
Brother, do you often see the emperor? ”
“……”
The charm glanced at him coldly, still silent.
"......," the centurion could not continue. I didn't come up with any useful information, so I had to shut up in the end.
Everyone sensed that the centurion seemed to be deliberately delaying. But no one spoke. The carriage where King Yong and Jiang Jun were sitting was also quiet, as if they didn't care when they would be able to reach their destination.
Now, the captain's mansion is already full of ambushes, right?
Dou Yanxiao thought so, but she didn't feel nervous. The group followed to the front of the captain's mansion. The guards guarding the gate apparently recognized the centurion, and greeted him when they saw him coming.
The centurion said:
"Hurry up and inform Captain Hu, just say that King Yong is here, come out to meet him."
The centurion's voice was loud, and several soldiers guarding the door heard it clearly, and after being stunned for a moment, someone immediately rushed inside to report it.
"Lord Wang, please."
As he spoke, the centurion led the people inside.
Three carriages rushed in, and Shu Jin's subordinates also followed on horseback. After walking inside for less than a cup of tea, a few people came out from inside.
"Chiayi City Captain Hu Dehou see Lord Yong!" A general in his thirties at the head saw everyone's carriage and hurriedly knelt down and saluted and shouted.
"Get up!" King Yong said in the middle of the carriage.
Captain Hu got up when he heard this, and said:
"The prince is here in person, and he is not welcomed, so please come inside." As he spoke, he himself led the way.
The carriage of the group drove all the way into the captain's mansion and stopped near the antechamber.
King Yong, Jiang Junzheng lifted the curtain and got out of the car, and Shu Jin and Dou Yanxiao here, together with Zhuo Tong in the other car, also walked out.
"Ahh This is. Captain Hu was stunned when he saw Shu Jin, then glanced at Dou Yanxiao again, and then quickly reacted and saluted, "Xiaguan has seen the Duchess of the Protector and the Lord of Xiangtang!" ”
"Excuse me."
Shu Jin said casually. followed King Yong into the hall.
The group of people who followed Shu Jin, King Yong and others were about to follow, but Hu Dehou suddenly raised his hand and blocked everyone's way.
"Hey! Guards. This hall is so small that it can't accommodate so many people. I've already ordered someone to prepare refreshments, so why don't you go to the side hall with my subordinates to rest for a while? ”
As soon as these words came out, King Yong turned around and looked over, Jiang Junzheng also frowned, and Dou Yanxiao clenched the sword in his hand.
Captain Hu was stared at by these people, but he was not afraid at all, but smiled, raised his head slightly, glanced at the wall of the courtyard, and then beckoned, and the centurion who came with everyone immediately stepped forward.
"Come, take these brothers and guards down to rest."
"Yes!"
The centurion arched his hand, and then turned to Shu Jin's men, "Please!" ”
Dou Yanxiao followed Captain Hu's eyes and looked at the courtyard wall, where red hats could be seen on several walls, which were obviously ambushes.
This has no intention of evading it at all, this is simply to tell everyone: we have prepared an ambush, please tie your hands and capture!
The demon demon looked up at Shu Jin, and Shu Jin nodded slightly.
So the two of them walked with the group in the direction pointed by the centurion. But Ah Wu and Shang Qiang walked straight behind Shu Jin and stood still.
Hu Dehou narrowed his eyes, but finally said nothing, smiled again, made a gesture of please, and then walked into the hall first. King Yong, Jiang Junzheng, Shu Jin, Dou Yanxiao, and Zhuo Tong, Ah Wu and others all walked in.
"The small land of the projectile, there is nothing decent to entertain, don't dislike it, the prince."
Hu Dehou smiled and put a plate of pastries beside King Yong, then glanced at Shu Jin and Dou Yanxiao, looked at Shu Jin's stomach, and then asked with a smile:
"Lord, I don't know what is the matter with the prince coming to this Chiayi City?"
"Why bother talking nonsense?" King Yong sneered and said, "I only ask you, did you let people stop the documents sent by the emperor to Changdu for help?" ”
"Clerical? What the prince is talking about, his subordinates don't understand. ”
"Do you still have garlic?" King Yong said, "If it weren't for you to get in the way, how could the news of the emperor's injury not be transmitted back to Changdu now?" ”
When Hu Dehou heard this, he suddenly realized and said:
"Oh! When the prince said this, I remembered that there seemed to be such a thing. In fact, how could the lower officials detain the messenger, but it was just because he was tired from the journey, so he was just left to rest for a while.
As for saying that the emperor is injured, how can there be any thing, the prince should not listen to rumors! ”
"Good! Even if what you say is true, then the king asks you, what do you mean by ambushing so many soldiers outside this courtyard? Do you want to be disrespectful to this king and others? ”
"Oh, the prince can be tormented. How could I be detrimental to the prince and the others. It's just that I think this Chiayi City is so good that I want to keep the prince and others here as guests. ”
"Okay, then let me ask you, what if we refuse to stay and insist on leaving?"
King Yong didn't speak, Jiang Jun was asking on the side.
As soon as the words fell, Na Hu Dehou immediately smiled on his face, snorted coldly, raised his hand and slapped his face.
Suddenly, there was a sound of footsteps outside, apparently a large number of people rushed over, surrounding the hall, and looking out of the hall door, you could see the figures on the courtyard wall, and the cold light reflected by armor and weapons under the sunlight.
"Lord Wang, please forgive the official for offending, I'm afraid I will ask the prince and the county lord to stay in my Chiayi County for a little longer."
When King Yong heard this, he didn't speak, and he didn't look angry, but Shu Jin smiled:
"What if I don't?"
With that, she slowly stood up.
Hu Dehou listened to Shu Jin's words and was about to say something, but suddenly felt that something was not quite right on his body, and his chest seemed to be tight. So, in surprise, he lowered his head and looked at his chest.
