Chapter 247 Chapter 247 Out of the City

In the early morning, the people who had just celebrated the victory at the border pass found that the entire Dengzhou City was filled with a murderous atmosphere. In the streets and alleys, there are government officials with a team of soldiers, checking from house to house. They all had a portrait in their hands, as if looking for a lady.

The city gates, which were already stricter, were also more strict. Everyone who leaves the city will be carefully questioned and confirmed before they are released from the city. As long as you encounter something suspicious, you will be taken directly back to the government. The North Gate, in particular, is more difficult to navigate than the other three gates.

"Lang Jun, otherwise let's go out of the city from the east city gate and go around, there is a long queue at the north city gate. If you leave the city too late, you won't be able to reach Xinmen before dark. The young man from the Sheng Family Wine Shop told Sheng Yun the news he had inquired about, and Sheng Yun's face was a little gloomy.

Today's batch of wine is a contract signed by Shengjia Distillery, if it is not transported to Xinmen Town on time, it will definitely not be able to earn a copper coin this time. Looking at the sky, Sheng Yun was about to say that he was about to go out of the city from the East City Gate, but he suddenly saw a carriage passing in front of him, and Sheng Yun was stunned for a moment. When Sheng Yun walked forward quickly, he wanted to see the people in the carriage entering, but the carriage was already far away.

Sheng Yun thought for a while, then asked the little guy to take out the pen and ink and quickly write a letter. When the handwriting was dry, Sheng Yun folded it and said to the little servant: "Go to the Li Mansion and hand over this letter to Ruoxi in my name." Remember, to be personally in her hands. ”

"The little one is written down." The little guy thought that Sheng Yun wanted to go out of the city through Sheng Ruoxi and through the North City Gate, and he received the letter very quickly, so he went to the Li Mansion.

Sheng Yun waited for the little guy to leave, but he called out the shopkeeper of the wine shop and said, "I'm tired of Uncle Fang's trip today, and I suddenly remembered that there is another important thing to do." ”

"Lang Jun said what he said, the old slave had already said that this hard thing should be done by the old slave." Uncle Fang's Xiang Shengyun hugged his fists, cleaned up briefly, and set off with the convoy. But Sheng Yun saw the direction of the convoy, and hurriedly chased after Uncle Shang, and said: "Uncle Fang, there is not enough time to walk from the north city gate, you should go out from the east city gate." ”

"Oh, the old slave wrote it down." Uncle Fang saw Sheng Yun's actions just now, and he also had the same thoughts as the little guy. But at this time, Sheng Yun suddenly said this, and Uncle Fang was a little puzzled, but without asking too much, he commanded the convoy to drive to the east city gate. Sheng Yun watched the convoy go away, so he asked the young man from the winery to set up a carriage and head towards the north city gate.

At the same time, Lu Xiang'er and Lu Zhi sat in the carriage and were relatively speechless, but there was some expectation in their eyes. When she just passed by the Sheng Family Distillery, Lu Xiang'er used the knife hanging between her necks to cut a corner of the carriage window and looked out. is very lucky, Lu Xianger really saw Sheng Yun, but I don't know if Sheng Yun saw her. Because the carriage was driving too fast and the time was very short, Lu Xiang'er didn't dare to be too sure. In fact, Lu Xianger wanted to throw her belongings out more. But the carriage was guarded in front of and behind. When she cut the window, she found a corner where the other party couldn't pay attention.

Lu Xiang'er didn't want Sheng Yun to see her and save her later, she just hoped that Sheng Yun would go and report to Mrs. Li. Ju Chensi was going to take Lu Xiang'er out of the city the day after he kidnapped her, which was an unexpected thing. Although the gate of the city will be very strict, Mrs. Li's attention must be on the city. Lu Xiang'er had such a guess from the discussion she heard.

Ju Chensi, who was sitting outside the carriage, was very satisfied with Lu Xianger's 'knowledge'. Seeing the city gate getting closer and closer, his heart was full of confidence. Thinking about returning to the barracks of the Gaochang Army, Ju Chensi thought about how to brag to Ju Chenhao.

At the city gate, there was a long queue, moving forward very slowly. Most of these people who wanted to leave the city were merchants, and a few were farmers from nearby counties and villages. Ju Chensi squinted his eyes and looked at it, then raised his voice so that everyone around him could hear it: "Go directly to the city gate, and you must leave the city within half an hour." If they don't 'obey', they just break out. ”

"Yes." More than a dozen people gathered around the carriage whispered softly at the same time, causing several people in line next to them to look sideways.

But when they saw the exotic appearance of Ju Chensi and others, they pouted at first. And after thinking of something, they chased after the group with some confusion. It wasn't until they found those tall people, showing their scimitars at their waists, that the people in line showed frightened looks. More knowledgeable people exclaimed, 'Gaochang people', and retreated. Immediately, more and more people knew the identities of Ju Chensi and the others, and they all hid to the side. A small commotion finally attracted the attention of the city gate guards.

Fan Ning, the commander of the city gate guards, was one of the generals who went to the Li Mansion to attend the wedding on the day Li Wenhao got married. Fan Ning was found by Mrs. Li in the Li Mansion last night, and only then did she learn about the abduction of Huo Qingsong's wife Lu Xiang'er. Today, he is here to find out the people who put Dengzhou City, just to find clues. But Fan Ning didn't expect that there were Gaochang people swaggering in Dengzhou City.

Although those people were wearing Han clothes, their appearance was very different from that of Han Chinese. Fan Ning didn't associate these Gaochang people with Lu Xiang'er for the first time, but just thought that they were Gaochang's businessmen. After glancing at the guards on the left and right, Fanning led four or five people to step forward and stop Ju Chensi's carriage.

"Although the Gaochang Kingdom and the Great Zhou Dynasty are in a state of hostility, our Great Zhou Dynasty has always been sensible and has not arrested the Gaochang people in the Great Zhou Dynasty. However, if you want to return to Gaochang, you must also follow the rules of the Great Zhou Dynasty. ”

Fan Ning has been a military general for many years, and he also has a good eye, and he soon saw that Ju Chensi was the leader. Therefore, what he said was all aimed at Ju Chensi. However, Fanning was still a little alert, and as he spoke, his eyes were looking at the carriage trunk that was not moving.

Ju Chensi didn't expect that he would meet so many interesting people when he first came to the Great Zhou Dynasty. Compared with those generals of his Gaochang Kingdom, the Great Zhou Dynasty still has the bearing of the Celestial Empire. But thinking of the situation of the two countries at this time, Ju Chensi still smiled, and then said: "This general, we must go out of the city today." If you stand in line, you won't have enough time. Please also ask the general to look at the face of the people in the car and let us out of the city. Otherwise, there are some consequences that you can't afford alone. ”

As soon as the words fell, Ju Chensi signaled to the person driving next to him. The man lifted the curtain of the carriage under Fanning's astonished and suspicious gaze. Slowly, Lu Xiang'er, who had a big belly, appeared in front of Fan Ning with a somewhat pale face.

Huo ...... Huo ...... "Fan Ning saw that Lu Xiang'er's eyes were round, and he also took advantage of the situation to touch the knife on his waist. Although the few guards behind him didn't understand what was going on, it could be seen that the general had moved, and they also raised their spears and pointed at Ju Chensi on the carriage. The people behind Ju Chensi, seeing this formation, also quickly dismounted and showed their scimitars.

The two sides are facing each other in a confrontation, and there is a great sense that if there is a discord, they will fight each other. But the two sides were obviously unfair in numbers, and when the guards at the city gate saw this, only two people were left, and all the rest ran over. And the guards at the city gate also raised their bows and arrows at Ju Chensi.

Ju Chensi looked at the guards on the opposite side and the city gate, his expression did not change, and his tone was still the same as just now: "This general, if you can promise to kill all of us before I stab the people in the car to death with a sword, you can come up." ”

"All guards, don't act rashly without my orders." Fanning's expression was much more solemn, and he said in a deep voice: "General Ben, no matter who you are, as long as you let go of the people in the car, you can leave Dengzhou City safely." General Ben has sworn that he will not lead his troops after you. ”

"This general, I'm afraid you haven't understood the current situation." Ju Chensi didn't want to drag it down, and said directly: "Open the city gate and let us go out of the city, otherwise the people in the car will be our 'burial'." ”

Fanning's heart was very anxious at this time, and he longed for Mrs. Li to appear next to him immediately. Lu Xiang'er is too important, he is a small general, he really can't bear this consequence. How Huo Qingsong treated Lu Xiang'er, it had already been spread all over his group.

But just when Fan Ning didn't know what to do, he saw that Ju Chensi had already raised his scimitar, got into the carriage and sat next to Lu Xiang'er. Lu Xiang'er didn't expect that when Ju Chensi lowered his face, there was really a murderous aura on his body. If Lu Xiang'er hadn't been holding Lu Zhi's hand, Lu Zhi might have to do it too.

"Wait." Fan Ning didn't dare to risk Lu Xiang'er's life, so he hurriedly stopped him, then turned around and said loudly: "Open the city gate and release the peopleβ€”"

As the city gate was slowly opened, a smug smile appeared on Ju Chensi's face. When the carriage drove again, he put the scimitar back, but he didn't get out of the carriage and whispered: "Mrs. Huo, how offended." However, for everyone's safety, my father has to sit in the carriage for a while longer. ”

Lu Xiang'er glanced at Ju Chensi and didn't speak, but moved in the direction of Lu Zhi. When Ju Chensi saw Lu Xiang'er's appearance, he suddenly felt bored, so he smiled and said, "Mrs. Huo, since you are leaving Dengzhou at this time, why don't you shout loudly, maybe those people will help save you." ”

"Jiaohe Gong of Gaochang Kingdom, is it true that in your heart, all the ladies of the Great Zhou Dynasty only think about themselves?" Lu Xiang'er asked rhetorically, but didn't say anything. With the situation just now, if Lu Xiang'er really shouted, I don't know how many people will be killed or injured here at the city gate.

Lu Xiang'er is not a great good person like a virgin, but she will not implicate so many innocent people because of herself. Another important point is that Lu Xiang'er was sitting in the corner, and from the gap before, she saw Sheng Yun in the crowd, Mrs. Li, and someone who made Lu Xiang'er see it and almost screamed.
