Chapter 520: Take advantage of the chaos to escape

That night, Zhang Jian took his personal guards to stay in Cui's mansion, and took over the defense of the mansion, dozens of servants and palace guards were all strictly guarded, and externally under the pretense of Cui Hong's order, he declared that the situation was tense, and no one was temporarily allowed to go out, nor did he accept visits from outsiders.

From the next day, the scattered people of the Helan Department are rushing to Pingcheng one after another, and the prince Tuoba is not far from Pingcheng, hidden in a secret place, the ministers and officials in the city and the ordinary people learned the news, and went out of the city to greet them one after another, and the guards of the city did not pay attention to it at all, obviously Tuoba Shao was very unpopular.

With the lead, and not blocked, more and more people went out of the city to greet the prince, after all, the prince is a foregone conclusion anyway, at this time, everyone wants the prince to see himself, so that he can get a touch of the dragon's work, if the first day out of the city people still have scruples, then from the next day, almost all people go out of the city to meet the prince, Pingcheng completely fell into anarchy, disorganization, this is a good opportunity to escape.

If Wei Feng had an elite army near Pingcheng at this time, he could attack it without much effort, but who would have expected Tuoba Jue to die so suddenly? Zhang Jian was also helpless, if he had two or three thousand soldiers and horses in his hands, he would dare to take Pingcheng and hold on to Weifeng to help, but the reality was that he only had thirty people on his hands!

At noon on 22 September, after intense preparations, dozens of people from Cui's Mansion rushed to the south gate on horseback and in cars under the protection of Zhang Jian and 30 other personal guards.

In addition to the daughters of Cui Hong's father and son, there are also some concubines and maidservants who are reluctant to stay. As for the rest of the people, they were all knocked out by the guards and then tied up and thrown in the house, and left them some grain, rice and cloth, so that they could escape for their lives when they woke up, in fact, according to Zhang Ning's original intention, they killed all the men and took all the women away, but Cui Hong and Cui Hao, father and son, were literati after all, and they couldn't be as ruthless as the guards, so they could only leave this hidden danger.

Along. From time to time, there are hurried pedestrians passing by. Cui Hong and Cui Hao, father and son, rode on the horse, not in a hurry on the surface, but in fact, they wished they could give birth to the right wings, so they simply flew to the thistle.

"Cui Shangshu. Could it be that you are also going to greet the prince? "The more you are afraid of something, the more you will come. Suddenly, a voice came from the side. It made both the father and son tremble!

Cui Hong turned his head to see that it was Shizhong, Situ, Xiangzhou Thorn History, and Sun Song, the mayor of Nanping. That is, the day before yesterday, the first person who expressed his willingness to obey Tuoba Shao's order, the so-called Xiangzhou, is divided into Ji Prefecture, with Ye Xingtai under the jurisdiction of Wei County, Yangping, Guangping, Ji County, Dunqiu, Qinghe six counties to set up, the state governs Ye, but as the Weifeng iron hoof swept the land of Hebei, Xiangzhou no longer exists, Changsun Song fled from Huguan into Hedong in time, and returned to Pingcheng after several tosses.

Cui Hao lowered his voice and introduced the origin of the eldest grandson Song to Zhang Jian, this is obviously an eight-sided exquisite person, seeing that Tuoba Shao had no one to care about, so he changed his course and went to the prince.

Although Cui Hong secretly shouted that he was unlucky, he had to arch his hand: "Exactly, I wonder if Nanping Gong is also going out of the city?" ”

The eldest grandson Song nodded and said: "The prince is supported by hundreds of officials, and the old man is about to go, I heard that the prince has gathered thousands of men and horses, and he is coming fifty miles west of Pingcheng. ”

"Fifty miles? So fast? Cui Hong was shocked and asked in surprise.

The eldest grandson Song smiled and said: "This is still the prince's caution, otherwise, it should have come yesterday, Cui Shangshu, we just went all the way." ”

"It's good!" Cui Hong responded without thinking, since he couldn't get rid of it for the time being, he had to wait until he got out of the city.

Eldest Sun Song noticed the nearly ten cars accompanying him, a look of suspicion flashed, and he asked casually: "Cui Shangshu, is this to welcome the prince and you still bring your family?" ”

Cui Hong said with a smile: "The old man is worried that the traitor may rather fight to the death and cause chaos, so he brings his relatives to his side, and he is more down-to-earth, hehe~~ The old man's house is no more than Nanping Gong has hundreds of guards, and he is not afraid of ordinary people attacking, and secondly, maybe the little girl is fortunate to enter the eyes of the prince, and she is not afraid of Nanping Gong's jokes!" ”

"Oh~~" Changsun Song nodded understandingly, Cui Hong wants to cling to the prince with his daughter, this is human nature, there is nothing to despise, and the remnants of the Jin people like Cui's are actually strictly suspicious of Tuoba, so they can only engage in civil service, civil officials, as long as they have the ability and prestige, money, beauty, cloth, mansion, title, and even no matter how high the official rank is, they can be given, but they are never allowed to lead the army alone, and can only participate in the military.

Don't even think about the title of general, or the assassination party, and even the armed guards are strictly limited, and they can only have twenty or thirty people at most, which is simply incomparable with the hundreds or thousands of Tuoba magnates.

This makes Hebei clans like the Cui family can only be firmly attached to the Tuoba clan, and they can't think of anything else, which also makes them feel a sense of insecurity, in fact, the Cui family is full of people, and the most envious is the Jiangdong clan like Wang Xie, who is not only superior, but also can share the world with the emperor!

Cui Hong and Changsun Song chatted while walking, both sides were full of smiles, Cui Hong was erudite and talented, and every witty remark made Changsun Song greatly impressed, and completely let go of the slightest doubt in his heart, unconsciously, he had gone out of the south gate of Pingcheng, under the intentional guidance of Zhang Jian, the convoy slowly broke away from the crowd and drove towards the south, a little easterly.

"Huh?" Changsun Song was suddenly startled, he found that it seemed to be out of the direction, although the people out of the city were not dense, but the nearest team of people was also three or four hundred steps away.

Eldest Sun Song hurriedly said: "Cui Shangshu, could it be that you are going the wrong way?" ”

Changsun Song had already realized that something was wrong, and several of his entourages stopped the reins of their horses, and a hint of vigilance appeared, but Zhang Jian waved his hand violently: "Only Changsun Song is left!" ”

The guards picked up the crossbow machine, swished a few arrows out, and the entourage was all throat arrows, and before they could fall under the horse, a few people had stepped forward to support them, tied them to the horses with ropes, and a few others surrounded the eldest grandson Song!

Eldest Sun Song was horrified in his heart, and shouted: "Cui Shangshu, could it be that you want to betray Wei and surrender to Jin?" The first emperor treated you well, and with your Cui family's reputation, the prince will inevitably be reused, why do you have to make such a decision? You go to see the prince with the old man now, and the old man dares to promise that the matter of the talent will never be disclosed to anyone, and if you violate this oath, the heavens and the earth will be destroyed! ”

Cui Hong snorted coldly: "If it weren't for helplessness, who would be willing to serve you for your life, now General Wei is victorious, the general trend has been achieved, it is the time for my generation to rejoin the homeland, you hit the door today, I can only complain that you are unlucky, and the old man will dedicate you to General Wei as a vote!" ”

Zhang Jian waved his hand again, and two more guards held ropes and forced forward, although Changsun Song also felt that he was quite unlucky, this was obviously a disaster, but there was no way, as long as the slightest movement was the result of death on the spot, he could only watch himself being tied up by five flowers, tied to the horse like those dead bodies.

Zhang Jian glanced at the eldest Sun Song, and said solemnly: "The general can receive a request for help tonight at the latest, with the general's temperament, he will definitely send troops overnight, that is to say, as long as we run three or four hundred miles, we can be safe and sound, please rest assured Cui Shangshu, if there are really chasing soldiers coming, even if we die, we must protect your father and son!" ”

Cui Hong pulled Cui Hao and bowed: "If you are grateful, the old man will not say much, if the sky wants to kill my Cui family, it will definitely not affect General Zhang and the soldiers!" ”

Saying this, Zhang Jian was still quite comfortable in his heart, worthy of being a human spirit who had lived for many years, so he smiled confidently and shouted: "Go!" ”

The sound of ruts and horses' hooves suddenly exploded, and a large cloud of smoke and dust drifted away due east

About two hours later, Tuoba Si entered Pingcheng under the protection of tens of thousands of soldiers and civilians, and the first thing was to kill Tuoba Shao's mother and son, destroy Tuoba Gan and Tuoba Liang's whole clan, as well as put Tuoba Shao into the palace A Ying soldier, Huangmen and dozens of palace maids, among which Tuoba Shao and other three people who participated in the killing of Tuoba Shao with their own hands, the meat was cut off and distributed to the ministers to eat.

Except for these three people, everyone else is very innocent, Mrs. He is too much to say, which led to the disaster of killing, although Tuoba Shao temporarily resolved the death robbery, but Shijun's crime is more serious, unless she can escape immediately, but first, there is no such consciousness, and second, the world is so big, a weak woman has nowhere to go, the only thing she can rely on is her son, but her son is not angry, his heart is higher than the sky, his life is thinner than paper, and he has made a knife in vain.

The soldiers, the Yellow Gate and the palace maid let Tuoba Shao enter the palace out of sympathy for Mrs. He, and if there is still a causal relationship between Mrs. He and Tuoba Shao's death, they are completely unaware of it, and they are implicated in bad luck.

The palace maid who reported the news was actually the most innocent, she couldn't bear to burn Mrs. He's incense, and risked her life to ask Tuoba Shao for help, but in the end, she still put herself in, in the final analysis, the person who was killed was Tuoba Jue, the emperor of the Great Wei State, and if she got a little touched, she would die, and this was the result of Tuoba Si's mercy.

In fact, in a palace coup, it is already very good that only a few dozen people died.

After handling the affairs of Yiying, Tuoba found that two important people were missing, one was Cui Hong, and the other was the eldest grandson Song!

So immediately sent someone to investigate the two people's mansion, Cui Hong's mansion, dozens of people lying down with flowers, men and women, among them, there was indeed Tuoba Clan's fine work, after crying with a handful of snot and tears, Tuoba Hei fully understood, people took advantage of the chaos to go to the Jin Kingdom, how could he swallow this breath?

Cui Hong can only go to the place of thistle, although from noon to dark, at least run dozens of miles away, but there are female dependents, the speed is obviously not fast, so Tuoba Hei immediately decided, sent three hundred guards in the palace to pursue overnight, life to see people, death to see corpses!

As for the disappearance of Changsun Song, it has become a mystery, Changsun Song's clansmen and children are all there, but he and a few relatives are missing, Tuoba Hei only looks for it secretly, and he doesn't take the Changsun clan, after all, Changsun Song has no possibility of defecting to the Jin Kingdom!
