Picture 35 Cleaning up the moles
"Bah, attention! Hurry up and leave the money to buy the road, otherwise you won't blame me for being welcome! After only walking for about an hour, Zhao Jie and his party encountered the first roadblock.
The invited guide strode forward, and then said: "Friends on the road, behind me is the current prince of Zhao Guo's convoy, which can not be provoked at will, you are in charge, please think twice!" ”
"Don't try to deceive us and others, you must know that Zhao Guo's proton has left here a few days ago, hurry up and stay to buy road money, otherwise you will blame me for being unkind." The leader who blocked the road said loudly: "I will hand over 100 taels of silver dozens of times, otherwise don't blame me for being unkind." ”
Without waiting for the guide to speak, Zhao Jie's guard commander drew his sword, stepped forward and said angrily: "You dare! The soldiers behind him also drew their sharp blades.
When the bandit leader heard this, he ordered: "The crossbow arrow is wound." In an instant, arrows shining with cold light pointed at Zhao Jie and his party. Look at how dare I! The bandit leader snorted coldly and said domineeringly.
"Do you think you're the only one with arrows? I have it too! The commander of the guards sneered, "We have it too!" Brothers, bow and string! "A big war seems inevitable.
"This is the master, it is better to settle the grievances than to settle the knot, they are all mixed food, there is no need to make such a big move." The guide walked out of the crowd and played the round.
"What are you, and you are qualified to talk to me, go and die!" The bandit leader threw a knife and immediately pinned the guide to the ground.
Seeing that the other party had made a move, the commander of the guards gave an order: "Release the arrow!" "Immediately, the two sides met each other." Sou! An arrow burst through the air and shot at the leader of the bandits, who had to get out of the way and retreat. It looked in the direction the arrows were coming from, and only above the valley were sharp arrows flying towards them.
"There is an ambush, retreat!" The bandit leader shouted loudly. In an instant, the bandits fled in all directions.
"Don't let any of them go!" Zhao Jie in the carriage gave his first order. "The prince has an order, don't let it go!" In an instant, there was a wail in the valley, begging for mercy.
After about a cup of tea, the sound of swords, guns, swords, and sticks colliding with each other gradually disappeared, and Zhao Jie slowly walked out of the carriage. "Meet Your Highness, the leader of the bandits has been conferred!" A handsome-looking young man knelt down on one knee in front of Zhao Jie and said. Zhao Jie fixed his eyes and saw that it was Zhao Yin, the son of the leader of the Chu internal defense who had not been seen for a long time.
"Good boy, I didn't expect it to be you! I haven't seen you for so long, how are you doing! Zhao Jie said with a smile, and walked straight forward to hug Zhao Yin.
"This is not the place to talk, there is a mole around me, you secretly help me find out as soon as possible." Zhao Jie took the opportunity to whisper in Zhao Yin's ear.
"Yes! My Highness. Zhao Yin also responded cautiously when he heard this. His Royal Highness Xie cares, and he has a good life in Xia. With my father's care and the king's blessing, my life is full of colorful and fun. On that day, His Royal Highness will go to the Chu State, and I will definitely do my best to be a landlord! Zhao Yin pretended to be cynical and said.
"What are you doing here?" Zhao Jie continued with a smile.
"It's not my dad yet, you must force me to go to Handan to experience the experience. What a beautiful life for me! My happy life! I'm going to say goodbye to you! Zhao Yin said with a sad face: "Isn't this rushing to Handan?" I didn't expect to meet you here! ”
"Thanks to you this time! Otherwise, I'm afraid I'll be in a different place! Zhao Jie arched his hand, and then said: "Don't thank you for your great kindness, you will definitely repay you in the future!" ”
"Your Highness, you are so polite! This is what I should do. Zhao Yin knelt down on one knee again and said: "For the glorious future of the Zhao family, our subordinates are dead." ”
"Brother, where are you going next?" Zhao Jie asked with concern: "You see that the guards around me are dead and wounded, can you please give me a ride, just send me to the river." ”
"I heard that His Royal Highness's trip is to the Qin State as a hostage, why should it be delivered to the river." Zhao Yin asked suspiciously.
"Lone is ready to take a boat along the big river to the Qin State, quickly and easily." Zhao Jie smiled, and then said, "I'm afraid I'm going to trouble you to find a big ship for me." ”
"Your Highness, please rest assured, everything is on me." Zhao Yin replied briskly: "I'll arrange for my subordinates to do it." ”
As soon as the words fell, Zhao Yin quickly left, and Zhao Jie smiled bitterly: "It's still so urgent!" ”
When night fell, Zhao Jie and his party couldn't get out of the endless mountains, so they chose to live in a ruined temple in the mountains. The night in the mountains is incomparably dark, but also incomparably quiet. In the middle of the night, a dark figure quietly opened the door and walked out of the ruined temple.
The silence of the night was broken by a whistle of "......", followed by the "fluttering" of the pigeon's wings. The man hiding in the dark took out a roll of cloth, tied it to the pigeon's leg, and quickly released it with a clean movement.
Suddenly, a sharp arrow burst through the air and hit the carrier pigeon. The pigeon wailed and fell to the ground. "It turns out that the traitor is you, I have always treated you well, why did you betray me!." Zhao Jie appeared in front of the black shadow with a torch in his hand, and Zhao Yin followed closely behind him: "Say, who is the mastermind behind the scenes?" The firelight illuminated the delicate face of the black shadow, and it was actually one of Zhao Jie's maids: Yanyu.
"I didn't expect Your Highness to be so witty, I didn't lose unjustly." Yanyu smiled and said resolutely: "The little girl is very grateful to His Highness for taking him in back then, and she has taken care of His Highness over the years, but after all, people can't betray their birth." I'm sorry, Your Highness! ”
"According to your words, you have found your relatives!" Zhao Jie asked with concern when he heard this: "What are they doing to you!" ”
"What do you say! When I found them, they were living in poverty. Yeonwoo asked hatefully, "Later, His Highness's enemies found them, hijacked them and coerced me to monitor your every move, and it was not over until today. ”
"Who is my enemy in your mouth?" Zhao Jie continued to ask, "Tell me quickly, who sent you to spy on me." ”
Yanyu smiled bitterly, and then said, "Your Highness, I'm sorry, for the safety of my parents and sister-in-law, I can't say it!" ”
Zhao Jie strode forward, grabbed his collar and roared, "Tell me quickly, who is going to harm me!" ”
"I can't say!" After speaking, blood slowly flowed out of Yeonwoo's mouth. Zhao Yin stepped forward and probed his nose, checked the meridians, and then said regretfully: "She committed suicide by taking poison!" ”
Zhao Jie angrily threw Yanyu's to the ground, and then walked towards the broken temple, and said in a steady tone: "She is also a poor person, dig a pit and bury it!" ”
"No!" Zhao Yin replied, "Obey Your Highness's orders." ”
