Chapter 108: Night Escape
"One more thing...... It's about the ...... over there in Jinyang City."
Su Cheng thought of what Yang Xu said to him when he met Yang Xu a few days ago, his face couldn't help but become serious, and he immediately told King Qin about Zhou Chengde, the inspector of Jinyang City, colluding with Hu Guo.
Later, he presented the evidence that Yang Xu handed over to him about the Zhou family's collusion with the Hu people to the King of Qin.
These evidences, including the confessions written and drawn by the Hu people's spies, as well as the confessions of Zhou Chengde's father and son, are enough to confirm the Zhou family's collusion with the Hu people.
"Zhou Chengde deserves death!"
After reading the evidence, King Qin couldn't help but be furious, and what he hated most in his life was the spies who betrayed the country and sought glory.
"If this matter is done well, it will be convenient for the country to merit! At that time, the weight of King Qin in His Majesty's heart will also increase a lot! ”
Su Cheng smiled and said to King Qin.
King Qin nodded, thought for a moment, and said to Su Cheng: "You tell Yang Xu that if this matter is done, I will credit him!" ”
Su Cheng said with a smile: "Yang Xu said, he doesn't want to take credit, as long as he can give him a little more share in the future business." ”
King Qin laughed and said, "This guy is a money fan!" You reply to him, no matter what business he does in the future, as long as he does not violate the laws of my Zhao Kingdom, this king can not have any share, and he will definitely give his full support! ”
※※※
At night, everything is silent.
The north gate of Jinyang City was opened by someone somebody.
The next moment, a convoy of seven or eight carriages and more than twenty heavily armed cavalrymen drove out of the gate and then galloped quickly in the direction of Hu Guo.
The more than 20 cavalrymen were Zhou Chengde's henchmen and guards.
And sitting on those carriages were more than 20 members of Zhou Chengde's entire family, as well as the money they had looted over the years.
Since Yang Xu went to the imperial capital to open a restaurant, Zhou Chengde's eyes and ears have been secretly paying attention.
After learning that Yang Xu was thriving in the imperial capital, Zhou Chengde had trouble sleeping and feeling that the Zhou family might be abandoned by Yang Xu at any time.
Zhou Chengde understood that once Yang Xu made public the evidence of the Zhou family's collusion with the Hu people, what awaited the Zhou family would be the crime of raiding the family and exterminating the family.
Zhou Chengde was naturally unwilling to die, and these days, their father and son had been plotting to escape.
As long as they can escape to Hu, their personal safety can be worry-free, even if they can't be reused by the Hu court, they can use the money they bring to live the life of a rich man.
Tonight, the Zhou family finally found a suitable opportunity and arranged for their cronies to open the city gate and flee with their clan.
From here, all the way to the north, as long as you cross the boundary river between the two countries of Zhao, you will enter the territory of Hu and be able to get the protection of Hu.
"Dad, the Yang family restaurant and the Yang family village have been arranged?"
Inside the carriage, Zhou Yi's facial features were hideous, and he asked in a hateful voice.
Before today, he was the son of the inspection envoy of Jinyang City, and the head of the four talents of Jinyang City.
However, from today on, he has to flee to the country of Hu, where he will spend his life in that bitter cold place, and in the future, he will face strange foreign faces.
For him, moving from the rich and graceful Zhao State to the bitter cold and barbaric Hu State is tantamount to falling from heaven to hell.
And the one who caused all this was Yang Xu and Yang Jiazhai.
Therefore, his hatred for Yang Xu and Yang Jiazhai can be described as deep in the bones.
Now that Yang Xu is not in Jinyang City, their father and son can only transfer their hatred to the Yang Family Restaurant in Jinyang City and the Yang Family Village outside the city.
In order to avenge this great revenge, Zhou Chengde arranged his henchmen to spend a lot of money to bring a number of masters from all over the country, preparing to destroy Yangjia Restaurant and Yangjiazhai.
And the day they flee is also the time to do it.
"Before we leave Jinyang City, I have already let people know. In a few moments, Yang's Restaurant and Yang's Village will be launched! ”
Zhou Chengde said in a deep voice, his eyes flashing fiercely.
In Jinyang City, he was an official to inspect the history, he was a powerful man and a master, but after he arrived in Hu State, he could no longer provide border information for Hu State, and he would not be valued by the Hu State Court.
So when it comes to hatred for Yang Xu and Yang Jiazhai, he is deeper than his two sons.
"Tonight, use the blood of all the villagers in Yangjiazhai to give us food!"
Zhou Tong clenched and waved his fist and roared.
He, the little overlord of Jinyang City, after arriving in Hu State, lived both human and earth, and could only obediently be a turtle with a shrunken head, so he also hated Yang Jiazhai and Yang Xu in his heart.
An hour later, the convoy traveled dozens of miles, and it was not far from the border river between the two countries.
Zhou Chengde's father and son were relieved, knowing that Hu Guo's side had arranged a boat by the river, and as long as they crossed the river, they would be completely safe.
At this moment, the carriage suddenly stopped, and then a burst of exclamations were heard.
"What's going on!"
Zhou Chengde frowned, and a sense of foreboding rose in his heart.
"I'll see!"
Zhou Tong lifted the curtain behind the carriage, jumped down, and went around to the carriage, and the next moment his figure was fixed there.
Zhou Yi immediately jumped out of the carriage, and as far as his eyes could see, he saw that ten zhang away in front of him, there was a black oppression, and it was actually hundreds of heavily armed Zhao cavalry.
Under the moonlight, the swords in the hands of those Zhao cavalry reflected a cold light, which made people feel terrified.
"This ...... This ......"
Zhou Yi's throat was dry, his whole body trembled, and when he and his brother Zhou Tong looked at each other, there was deep despair between their expressions.
Zhou Chengde, who was in the carriage, already felt that something was wrong at this time, he didn't get out of the car, but a layer of cold sweat had broken out on his body, and he couldn't wipe it clean.
"Zhou Chengde, your Zhou family's collusion with Hu Guo has been exposed, and you can't be arrested quickly!"
Among the hundreds of cavalry troops on the opposite side, a general drove forward, pointed forward with a spear in his hand, and shouted loudly.
"Sigh...... God is going to kill my Zhou family! ”
Zhou Chengde got out of the carriage, glanced at the hundreds of Zhao cavalry opposite, and couldn't help but look up to the sky and sigh.
Suddenly, he snatched a knife from the hand of the guard beside him, and shouted: "It's a death to be caught, it's better to rush over, maybe there is still a way to live!" Brothers, rush with me! ”
When he was young, he was also a fierce general in the army, but after he stayed in the top position for a long time, his body gradually became rich, and as he got older, his body has long since lost the courage of the past.
He rushed a few feet away with a knife, and he was already a little out of breath, and the henchmen and guards behind him were all like ashes, and no one followed.
"The mantis arm blocks the car, and it is not self-sufficient!"
The general of Zhao Guojun looked coldly at Zhou Chengde who rushed over, and his eyes were full of mockery.
"I'm fighting with you!"
Zhou Chengde rushed to the general's horse and slashed with a sword.
"Poof!"
That Zhao Guojun stabbed out the spear in his hand like lightning, directly piercing Zhou Chengde's heart.
