Chapter 642: Fight or Go
After the Tao brothers were sent home by Lan Ziyi, they contacted Father-in-law Yu, borrowed the honor guard, and swaggered into the West Gate. There is no need to ask, the captain of the city gate guarding the gate is naturally blocking them from leaving, and this is exactly the effect of Lan Ziyi's intention. At that time, it was the Tao brothers who broke into the door and made a lot of noise, and even the father and son of the enemy family, who were think tanks, went into battle shirtless in person, messing around with the captains and soldiers, and finally the matter ended with Du Yi coming to the time being.
It was only when Du Yi personally invited "Wei Hou" out of the sedan chair that he found out that it was an impostor. Looking at the Tao brothers and the Qiu family father and son who were sneering on the side, Du Ji's lungs were really angry, and he immediately ordered to take down the people around him, but how could Taichengwei be managed by Jingzhao Mansion, these uncles heard that Du Ji was going to take someone and immediately show his knife, and the Taicheng Wei Baihu who took the lead even shouted and scolded, "Only Lao Tzu has ever arrested people, when has anyone ever arrested Lao Tzu?" ”。
In the end, things were almost out of control, and Zhang Mingyue and Yu Chaoen, who were arguing with each other in the cabinet, had to rush to the scene in person to settle the matter. After a lot of chickens and dogs, both sides finally evacuated, Du Yi originally insisted on taking the Tao brothers and the Qiu family father and son back to the palace for interrogation, but he couldn't come up with any reasonable charges.
Father-in-law Yu has always supported Lan Ziyi, and he alone took over all the matters of sending honor guards and breaking into the city gate. Originally, Taicheng Wei Jian honor guard should not be stopped from going out of the city, and Zhang Mingyue could not make a fuss about this matter, and Lan Ziyi, as the Marquis of Guannei, had no problem building a guard of honor, and the team that went out of the city this time was completely in line with the etiquette, so there was no blame. In the end, at the insistence of Father-in-law Yu, Du Ji had to let go of Tao Zhuhu and them, and Father-in-law Yu also removed the access control of the capital, and Zhang Mingyue also nodded and agreed not to chase Lan Ziyi anymore.
After the matter was over, the Tao brothers and the Qiu family father and son were finally able to get on their horses and leave the city, but at this time they were all about to close the city gates.
After the three brothers and the father and son of the enemy family left the city, they galloped eastward, and after walking half the way, they met the horse farm man who came to explore the way to the capital. After learning that Lan Ziyi had arrived safely in Jingkou, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, but Tao Zhuhu still led everyone to hurry overnight, they planned to spend the night outside Jingkou City, and then directly join Lan Ziyi at dawn the next day and go to Yuhang.
The group galloped endlessly, without saying a word all the way. When he arrived near Wuzhou Mountain, Tao Zhuhu estimated that he was about to arrive at Jingkou, so he slowed down the horse's hooves. Tao Zhuhu asked the father and son of the Qiu family back:
"The two gentlemen have worked hard, and it is really difficult for you to travel like this."
Qiu Xiaozhi wiped the beads of sweat on his head and said:
"It's a little bitter, but it's the most important thing to meet with Wei Hou, my old bones can still withstand it, it's okay."
Qiu Wenruo asked out of breath:
"Why did Da Lang pull the horse? We're not here yet. ”
Peach Chase Tiger Road:
"It's almost there, I can't enter the city tonight anyway, it's the same if I arrive early or late. There are still many things to worry about in the future, and it is not appropriate to let the husband be too tired and fall ill. And the horse has been running for a long time, it's time to catch its breath. ”
Everyone smiled when they heard this, so everyone rode their horses slowly, and after handing the water bladder to Tao Zhulu, he said:
"When we went out of the city, my father-in-law specifically told us to protect the young master, I wonder how the young master is doing tonight? I hope he doesn't make any noise. “
Tao Zhutu returned the water bladder to his second brother, he untied his water bladder and drank a few sips and said:
"What movement can the young master make alone? Second brother, you think too much. “
Peach Chase Tiger Road:
"San Lang, you want to be less, the brothers who came just now said that the young master will find someone in the capital. With the young master's temperament, where can he sit and wait for a missed opportunity, he must have made a move tonight, but I don't know how big the movement is. “
The horse farm guy nodded and spoke, providing evidence for Tao Zhuhu's words.
At this time, Tao Zhulu pointed to the forest at the foot of the mountain on the side and said:
"There's a fire."
Then the crowd heard screams.
The Tao brothers and the horse farm guys are all good men trained in the army, and when they heard the sound, they immediately pulled their bows in their hands, and Tao Zhuhu asked in a low voice:
"Where is this?"
Tao Zhulu shook his head and said:
"I'm not familiar with Jiangnan, do the two gentlemen know where this is?"
Qiu Wenruo says:
"The mountains in the north and the water in the south here, remote and damp, I see that the forest is different from the surrounding mountains, the leaves are withered for no reason, and there seems to be a backlog of grievances from a distance. I heard that there is a mass grave in the west of Jingkou City, and I guess this is the place to estimate by the strength of my feet. “
As soon as Qiu Wenruo finished speaking, there was a series of screams from the woods, and Tao Zhutu said:
"Is this voice burying someone?"
Peach Chase Tiger Road:
"Where are the three watches coming out in the middle of the night to bury people! It's not like you haven't killed anyone, the whimper just now was obviously blood gushing from your throat, and you must have been stabbed in the heart. ”
Peach Rabbit scratched his head and said:
"Big brother, you're really serious, you can't make a joke."
Tao Zhulu asked:
"We can talk about other things later, but the question now is, whether we will take care of this or not."
Tao Zhulu picked out the points that everyone was thinking about but didn't want to say, and several people couldn't help but feel nervous. Tao Zhuhu frowned and looked back at the crowd. There are a total of eight people in their group, the father and son of the Qiu family are scholars and have no combat power, and the three guys in the racecourse are the sergeants who retired from Beizhen, and they are good hands. In other words, if you really want to do it, they have six people available.
Tao Zhulu said again:
"Listen to the voice, there are dozens of people over there."
Peach Rabbit Road:
"Less than fifty, and nearly half of them are being slaughtered. Big brother, you say we can't get on? ”
Peach Chase Tiger pondered when he heard this, and Peach Chase Deer said:
"More is better than less, the young master is still in Jingkou, it's not appropriate for us to delay here."
Qiu Xiaozhi also said at this time:
"Although several Lang Jun are all good players in Beizhen, there are only six of them in the end, and they are in the forest, which is not conducive to the march of cavalry. Let's go. ”
Tao Zhulu and Qiu Xiaozhi invariably proposed to leave, Tao Zhuhu couldn't help nodding, and just as he was about to raise his hand to order, Qiu Wenruo said sharply:
"Father, Erlang, what are you talking about?"
When everyone heard the sound, they looked back at Qiu Wenruo, only to see Qiu Wenruo's whole body trembling with anger, and his eyes were burned with tears from his anger. Qiu Wenruo pointed at everyone and scolded:
"You are also Taisho soldiers, guarding the border for generations, listening to your mouths all day long about maintaining the safety of the community, and now the robbers are killing people on the side of the road, but you turn a blind eye! The children fell into the well, and the neighbors were still heartbroken when they heard the sound, and now the screams on the mass graves over there are like hell, but you don't react at all! Are you still human? ”
If Qiu Wen said righteously, everyone was ashamed to hear it, but Tao Zhutu sneered and choked up:
"Sir's words are so nice, but it's not you who went up to die, you can say cool things hard."
Qiu Wenruo was furious when he heard this, he drew his sword for self-defense, and he was about to rush over, only to hear him:
"Momosaburo! Don't forget! When I was in Xiangcheng, I also braved the arrow stone and guarded the city! You said I dared to go up, and I will show you today! ”
Seeing this, Qiu Xiaozhi hurriedly buckled the reins of his son, and Tao Zhuhu also roared:
"Enough!"
The sound of the peach chasing the tiger is a tiger roaring in the mountains and forests, and after he spoke, everyone else fell silent.
Tao Zhuhu said to Qiu Wenruo:
"Sir, calm down, San Lang is flamboyant, it's me who is not strict in discipline, you must not be impulsive because of his few cool words.
Sir's words are true, we can't wait for the sergeants to see that there are robberies and murders and do nothing, so we will arrest people. The two gentlemen are here to watch the horses for us, and you can come over when the fighting over there has stopped. “
After that, Peach Chase Tiger rolled into the saddle and dismounted, and Peach Chase Deer and Peach Chase Rabbit and the other three horse farm guys also dismounted together. The five men tied their quivers in front of their horses, straddled their swords, and drew strong bows in their hands, and when they were ready, no one nodded to each other, and then they scattered among themselves and disappeared into the forest.
