The next day, he sailed farewell to Situ Hao, and Ah Jin led 500 soldiers to escort the two princes to the Houtang Mansion. After the team set off, Gu Xin really told Situ Hao about the dark room, Situ Hao took people to the dark room, recognized that it was made by Shang Mu Zhong, and devoted himself to studying it for half a day.

The drizzle was like smoke, and the procession moved forward on the official road, and the people gave way. Walking to the place where the sky is turning, looking sideways at the long voyage, the valley is blurry and difficult to distinguish, like fog and smoke, and the sadness rises in my heart again. Laugh immediately when you come, and be sad when you return. For a while, two lines of tears fell with the rain.

After traveling for a few days, they arrived at Hanjun through Guyu, and it was getting late, so the team rested in Hanjun for the night. When the Warden learned that the Overseer had arrived, he personally welcomed him out of the city, and after some subtlety, led everyone into the city to rest.

"General, I don't know if there is a place to rest on the way to Yizhou?" Yuanhang sat at the table in the room, and the general of the city guard sat opposite him.

The general pondered for a moment and said, "This is not far from Yizhou, and there is no post station on the way. Just thirty miles away from the city, there is a small pavilion, called Shen Yan Pavilion. There are dense forests, there is a pond, and there are often flying geese resting here, hence the name. It can only be used for temporary rest, and it is not allowed to sleep in the open. ”

"Very good, I'm just staying for a short time, and I'll rest after I get to Yizhou." The voyage smiled, everything was calculated.

The general wanted to set up a banquet to entertain him, but he sailed and said that the army's fate was in his body, and he didn't dare to be careless. He called for food to be brought into the house and invited meteors to come and eat together.

"Thirty miles outside the city, Shen Yan Pavilion, you will prepare as soon as the city gate opens tomorrow, and I will calculate the time and set off again." Yuanhang whispered to Meteor, who just lowered his head and ate, nodding vaguely.

Stretched out his hand and gave him a bang, and said in a low voice: "You can starve to death if you don't eat, do you remember accurately?" ”

"Well, well, thirty miles of Shen Yan Pavilion, don't worry." Meteor covered his head with one hand, and kept putting vegetables into his mouth with the other.

The next day, the sky was clear, the sun hung high in the sky, and when it was just the hour of departure, everyone felt that the heat was unbearable.

The third prince, Zhang Zong, came out of the mansion, covered his forehead with his hands, looked up at the sun, and said dissatisfiedly: "Why did you choose this time to go on the road, isn't it stuffy and unbearable." ”

He replied, "There is a resting place thirty miles on the way, and you can rush there at noon on the road at this time, avoiding the noon sun." ”

Zhang Zong didn't say anything more and got into the carriage. Zhang Yi glanced at the voyage and turned to get into his carriage. The general who defended the city sent his troops out of the city to the west.

The weather was indeed hot, and the voyage felt sweating profusely on the horse, not to mention that the two princes were in the carriage.

Zhang Yi poked his head out of the car, looked at Yuanhang and asked, "It's too stuffy in the car, how long can I rest?" ”

Yuanhang leaned on the horse and said with a smile: "The fourth prince is a little restless, it will be there in a moment, and you will no longer feel hot when you get there." ”

"Hmph, this kind of weather, where can it be cooler." Zhang Yi lowered the curtain and retracted his head.

Yuanhang sneered, others will not be cool, you will indeed be cool forever.

At noon, the procession reached a boundary, and on the voyage immediately saw a pavilion on the left side of the official road, a pond outside the pavilion, and a dense forest on the right. Seeing that the three words Shen Yan Pavilion were written on the pavilion, he knew the place, and after stopping the team, he asked the two princes to get out of the carriage.

Yuanhang accompanied the two princes into the pavilion, and the two stood facing the pond, and the wind blew on the water, which was much cooler. Yuanhang stood aside, secretly preparing, but after a long time, he didn't see the meteor action, so he couldn't help but be anxious and looked around.

In front of the pavilion is an empty pond, the east and west sides are official roads, and the south side is a forest, and meteors can only be hidden in the forest, why don't you release arrows? The voyage looked back into the forest.

There is nothing abnormal in the forest, could it be that the meteor only cares about eating and remembers the wrong place? Yuanhang bowed his head and pondered, no! Such an important matter, Meteor will not be mistaken. glanced sideways at Zhang Yi, and immediately understood that he was facing away from the woods, and the meteor must wait for him to turn around before he could take his life with one arrow.

Thinking of this, Yuanhang touched the broken arrow in his left sleeve, hid the swim bladder in his right hand, looked up at the poems left by the literati in the pavilion, and said loudly behind the two: "Two princes, please see if the poems left in this pavilion can be eyed." ”

After hearing this, the two turned around together and looked up at the pavilion.

"Whoosh." It's too late, it's too soon. A white light flashed from the forest, and a flying arrow was as fast as lightning, carrying the wind in front of the voyage, and went straight into Zhang Yi's chest. Zhang Yi took two steps back, covered his chest with his hands, his eyes bulged out, his mouth opened slightly, he only raised his right hand and pointed forward, and a stream of blood gushed out of his mouth, and he fell to the ground with a thud.

The third prince, Zhang Zong, was stunned on the spot, looking down at the dead Zhang Yi, and didn't know what to do for a while.

"There are assassins, protect the three princes." Yuanhang shouted with his back to Zhang Zong in front of him, pulled out the broken arrow from his sleeve, covered it with his right hand and stood in front of his chest, and at the same time squeezed the swim bladder, "Ah." Leaning on Zhang Zong's body.

"This ...... This ......" Zhang Zong stretched out his hand to support Yuanhang, and saw that he was blocking an arrow in his chest in front of him, and the blood had already stained his chest red, and he was at a loss.

"Protect the prince and arrest the assassin." Ah Jin jumped in from outside the pavilion and ordered the soldiers to send the frightened Zhang Zong into the carriage, and the soldiers protected the carriage. Ah Jin carried Yuanhang into the carriage that Zhang Yi was riding in, and carried Zhang Yi, who had already died, into the carriage, got on the horse and shouted beside the car: "My lord, the third prince is seriously injured, hurry to Yizhou for treatment, and move forward quickly." ”

Zhang Zong has palpitations in the heart of the car, is the emperor trying to kill us? No, there are all the emperor's people outside, if you take the lives of the two of me, you will be hacked to death in the barren mountains, why should that adult protect me with death?

In the other carriage, Yuanhang couldn't stand the bumps in the vehicle, sat up, looked at Zhang Yi lying at his feet, sighed, and said, "Don't blame me, only blame you for killing my brother." "And I silently said in my heart, Limo, I have avenged you, and you can rest in peace.

The team hurried all the way, and arrived at the city of Yizhou at midnight, the city gate had already been closed, and Ah Jin shouted loudly in front of the city: "Listen to the defenders of the city, Lord Zhizhou is back, and open the city gate quickly." ”

Seeing the team of hundreds of people under the city, the soldiers did not dare to open the city gate without permission, so they ran to summon the generals of the Qin Dynasty. General Qin went up to the city and looked down, and when he saw that it was really Ah Jin on the horse, he hurriedly ordered to lower the drawbridge and open the door to greet him.

Ah Jin did not get off the horse, and instructed Qin Chaodao: "There are three princes in this car, you send troops to protect you until the marshal returns." The fourth prince was assassinated, the general sent someone to keep the corpse, the adult was hit by an arrow and needed urgent treatment, I will send the adult back to the house first. ”

The Qin Dynasty agreed one by one, and when he heard that he had been hit by an arrow from the voyage, he asked eagerly, "Are you okay?" I searched all over the city and sent it to the adult's house. ”

Ah Jin stopped him and said, "No, there is a famous doctor in the Lord's Mansion, and the general only needs to protect the prince." He immediately bent over and said to the Qin Dynasty: "My lord entrusts the three princes to be strictly guarded and not to be approached by outsiders. ”

"The last will understand." Qin Chao took a step back and replied with his fists clenched.

Ah Jin didn't say more, and after the soldiers carried down Zhang Yi's body, he led the carriage to the Zhizhou Mansion.

Yuanhang was lying in the car, with his eyes closed, and was about to go home, but he came back like this, and I don't know if it would scare them. But don't let them know the details, knowing that there are too many people, it is inevitable that the news will leak. After thinking about it for a while, only Yilan was more stable, so he decided to go to Yilan's room.

Ah Jin arrived at the Zhizhou Mansion and ordered someone to call the door, got into the car himself, and saw Yuanhang lying motionless in the car, secretly praising the acting skills of the adults that no one can match. whispered: "My lord, I'm in the house." ”

"Go to the Yilan room, don't alarm the others first." Yuanhang opened one eye, looked at Ah Jin, and immediately closed his eyes after speaking.

The door of the mansion opened, and Ah Jin came in with Yuanhang in his arms, and ordered, "Go to the fourth young grandmother's room." ”

"Yes." The subordinate hurriedly led the way, and when he arrived at the back house, he was led by the maid and came to the front of the Yilan house.

Yilan was already asleep, and when she heard the maid calling for the door, she got up and put on a coat to open the door, and when she saw Ah Jinhug breaking in, she was startled and hurriedly tightened her coat.

"Fourth young grandmother, the adults are back." Ah Kim put Yuanhang on the bed, withdrew the maid, and closed the door.

Yilan lit the candle flame and saw that a long arrow in Yuanhang's chest had been half submerged, so he was so frightened that his hand was unstable, and the candle flame fell to the ground.

"Xianggong......" Yilan threw herself on the bed, fell on Yuanhang and cried.

Ah Jin hurriedly picked up the candle flame, stepped forward and whispered: "Fourth young grandmother, don't worry, adults are fine." ”

Yilan was crying, and suddenly felt a big hand wrap herself up, raised her teary eyes and looked at it, just as she saw Yuanhang smiling at herself. Looking at the long arrow in his chest again, he was overwhelmed with doubt.

"The adults rested early, and the subordinates retreated." Ah Jin saw that he had nothing to do with himself, so he hurriedly dodged and withdrew, so as not to delay the good things of the adults.

"Xianggong, why is that?" Yilan saw him smiling evilly, where did he look like an injured person, but he didn't know why he did this.

Yuanhang threw away the broken arrow, and without explanation, he hugged Yilan and kissed him tightly in his arms. Yilan was so close that she gasped again and again, and she gave up before she said goodbye.

Yuanhang told Yilan about his assassination of the four princes, and told her that no one should tell her about this matter. Yilan nodded again and again after hearing this, and became worried about him again.

"Xianggong, if you take such an adventure, will the emperor tolerate you?"

"I can't care so much, I want to avenge Limo." Yuanhang sat up and said to Yilan: "Quickly bandage me, it's better to get some blood, and then call them to come, if you tell them tomorrow morning, I'm afraid I'll blame you." ”

"Hmm." Yilan responded obediently, got up and pulled off his messy hair, and went to find something to bandage him.
