Chapter 149: The Pursuers Catch Up
But where could the guards under the prince easily believe the words of the two guards sent by the emperor, and one of the guards immediately said loudly:
"Don't come to this set, arrest you first, and wait for me to understand the prince, and then you will wait to deal with it."
One of the guards sent by the emperor was full of excitement and said:
"You, if the emperor and the queen really have any mistakes, I see how you explain to the crown prince."
"Arrest the two of them, and let them go." One of the prince's guards was stern in a loud voice.
"Yes." The prince's guards who were surrounding him immediately surrounded him and arrested the two guards sent by the emperor.
The two guards sent by the emperor also resisted desperately:
"You're going to miss something big."
"Hurry up and take us to see the prince."
A guard suddenly broke into the prince's room, only to see that the prince was also wearing a purple dragon robe, with an extraordinary aura, wearing a golden tattooed dragon head ornament, and a tall figure.
"Crown Prince Qi, two guards suddenly came at the gate of the outer city, they said that they were escorting the emperor and the queen mother to come here, and said that the emperor and the queen mother were in danger, and there were chasing soldiers or something behind, so they sent the two guards in advance to report to the prince." The guard walked forward and reported to the prince.
The prince sat on the chair of the dragon, was stunned for a moment, and said:
"Oh, there will be such a thing."
The guard slowly took out the golden hairpin that the two guards handed to him and called it the queen's mother, handed it to the prince, and said seriously:
"Lord Prince, this golden hairpin was handed over to his subordinates by the two guards, and they said that as long as his subordinates handed over this golden hairpin to the prince for your inspection, they would naturally believe what they said."
When the prince saw the golden hairpin in the hands of his subordinates, he couldn't help frowning, got up and took the golden hairpin in the guard's hand, he took the golden hairpin in his hand and observed it carefully for a while, and said with a serious face:
"Yes, this golden hairpin is indeed a gift I gave to the queen mother, since the two guards who came to report the news were able to take out this golden hairpin as a token, presumably the father and the queen mother really came to my city, and the two guards who came to report the news must have no problem."
The guard was stunned for a moment, and said:
"Prince, then, my subordinates will go and announce that the two guards who came to report the news came to see you."
The prince nodded and said:
"Well, go quickly, if the father and mother are really in danger, then how can I sit idly by?"
The guard then clenched his fists and said:
"It's the crown prince, then the subordinates will go to the outer city gate to announce that the two guards have come to see you."
The prince then said:
"No, when you go to the outer city gate to summon them to come to my house from the city gate, it's too delayed, or I'll go to the outer city gate in person, so as to save time, after all, it's a matter of the father and the queen mother, I can't take it to heart, I have to take it seriously."
After speaking, the prince immediately walked out of the palace and rode in the direction of the outer city gate.
Just after the prince had been riding for a while, he saw a group of guards escorting two guards sent by the emperor to report the news.
The prince rode forward and asked his guards:
"What's going on? What are you doing with these two guards? ”
One of the prince's guards went up and hugged his fist and said:
"The crown prince, these two guards claimed to be sent by the emperor and the queen, and they also said that the emperor and the queen were in danger, and now they are coming to the prince, and there are chasing soldiers or something, and they also rode horses to break through the city gate, and their subordinates suspected that the two of them were meticulous, so the two of them were arrested by their subordinates, and they were going to take it to the prince, and now you just came."
The two guards sent by the emperor to report the news also said anxiously:
"Prince, the two of us are really sent by the emperor to believe it, you should have seen the golden hairpin given by the queen's mother! The two of us are not meticulous. ”
"Prince, it doesn't matter if the two of us live or die, but you must believe what the two of us say, everything is true! You must quickly send someone to pick up the emperor and the queen on the road, in case the pursuers behind catch up with them, then it will be more auspicious for the emperor and the queen. ”
After hearing these words, the prince immediately said to his guards:
"Let them both go."
The prince's guards suddenly looked entangled, but they didn't dare to disobey their orders, so they had to let go of the two guards sent by the emperor who came to tell the letter.
The crown prince asked the two guards sent by the emperor to send a letter:
"What the hell is going on in Kyoto? Why did my father and mother come to me? ”
One of the guards sent by the emperor said:
"Back to the crown prince, you don't know, the prime minister and his forces suddenly rebelled, forced the emperor to step down, and gave way to him, so he is now sending troops to hunt down the emperor and the queen, and the emperor and the queen have no choice but to flee to the prince's city! Therefore, the prince still hurriedly sent troops to meet the emperor and the queen on the road, and asked the prince to believe our words, we are not sent spies! ”
The prince was stunned, and thought that they could come to report the news with the golden hairpin I gave to the queen mother, and it would not be fake.
The crown prince then said to his guards:
"Come on, hurry up and gather soldiers and horses, and go to pick up my father and mother on the way to my city, quickly! If they do have any mistakes, I'll ask you. ”
The guards on one side then clasped their fists and said:
"Yes, Prince."
Seeing this, the two guards sent by the emperor to report the news were also happy, and kowtowed to the prince:
"The Prince's Vision"
After a while, the prince's guards gathered a large number of soldiers and came to the prince's side.
The crown prince then gave the order:
"Hurry up, go to the road to pick up your father and mother, and move forward quickly."
After speaking, the soldiers under the prince immediately rode their horses and quickly ran to the gate of the outer city, and went to meet the emperor and the queen on the way.
At this moment, the prince was also surprised! After all, the Wan family forced the emperor to abdicate, and sent people to hunt him down and kill him and the queen's mother, and the prince was also angry and full of worries.
The emperor and the queen mother continued to rush to the prince's city.
Wan Jinbao's general, with his soldiers, quickly caught up.
Suddenly, there was a shout from behind him:
"Stop, you can't escape."
Liu Feng heard the sudden shouting behind him, he suddenly trembled in his heart, he knew that the pursuers behind him were catching up, he immediately took the horsewhip and quickly slapped the horses in front of the carriage, and shouted:
"Your Majesty, the queen mother, sit down."
The horses in front of the carriage were quickly whipped by Liu Feng with a horsewhip for a while, and they immediately ran forward desperately.
Liu Feng immediately yelled at the guards on the side:
"Hurry up and stop the pursuers behind, you must protect the safety of the emperor and the queen, and go and stop the pursuers behind."
Immediately, the guards on one side were armed with weapons and went to the back, ready to stop the pursuers behind.
The emperor sat in the carriage, and his face was also anxious, full of excitement:
"Why hasn't the prince sent a soldier to meet him? That's a real rush! ”
The queen mother also said anxiously:
"Your Majesty, don't get excited, after the prince sees my golden hairpin, he will definitely send soldiers and horses to meet us on the road."
The emperor sighed and said:
"The pursuers behind here will catch up with us immediately, and I don't know how long those guards under my command can last, I'm really anxious!"
Liu Feng drove the carriage to the front quickly, and the guards who blocked the pursuers in the back were also quickly defeated, because the difference in numbers and forces between the two sides was too great, and the guards who protected the emperor and the queen were all wiped out by the pursuers behind.
Wan Jinbao's general was full of excitement and said:
"Quick! They're in front, let's keep chasing, they can't run. ”
Liu Feng drove the carriage and continued to run wildly, the horse ran forward vigorously, and the wheels behind the carriage couldn't help but be hit on a roadside stone, which instantly knocked the carriage to the ground.
only heard a "bang", and the carriage overturned on the road, Liu Feng got up and flew up, and flew to the side the moment the carriage overturned.
The horses in front of the carriage broke free from the shackles behind them, and they fell to the ground in exhaustion, panting for breath.
Liu Feng then ran quickly to the side of the carriage, squatted down and threw away the broken pieces of the carriage, and shouted loudly:
"Your Majesty, the Queen, are you all right?"
Suddenly, from the pile of debris of the carriage, the emperor's voice came:
"Liu Feng, hurry up and save me and the queen out."
As soon as Liu Feng heard the emperor's voice, he suddenly breathed a sigh of relief and said:
"Don't be in a hurry, I'll move the pieces of the carriage right away and get you out, you wait, I'll get you out soon."
Liu Feng quickly moved away the fragments of the carriage that were pressed on the emperor and the queen's mother, and helped the emperor and the queen mother who were pressed underneath to their feet, and said with self-blame:
"Your Majesty, the queen, please punish you, I didn't control the carriage well, so I threw you like this, I really deserve to die!"
I saw that the emperor and the queen's mother had messy hair, scars on their faces, and scars on their hands, full of embarrassment.
The emperor gasped and said:
"Don't blame yourself, don't blame you, if you hadn't driven the carriage like this for a while, it is estimated that we have been surrounded by the pursuers behind us at this time, now we should hurry up and find a way to hide, we can't let the pursuers behind catch up, otherwise, we won't be able to escape."
The emperor's foot was injured, and the queen helped the emperor to stand for a while, but she couldn't stand anymore, and suddenly her feet were weak and she squatted on the ground.
Seeing this, the emperor immediately bent down and said with concern:
"Queen, what's wrong with you? Don't scare me, don't scare me. ”
