Chapter 294: Ambush

But the plan of things could not catch up with the change, and before leaving, Su Heting received a letter from Su Dezhao, which clearly pointed out that it was necessary to let Nanchuan and Beimang enter Beijing together.

As a last resort, Su Heting had no choice but to change the original plan and adjust the list of entourages and left-behind personnel.

It happened that the Midyear Festival was approaching, and the Midyear Festival was not suitable for going out, so Su Heting discussed it with the Qin Mission, and set off after the Midyear Festival.

During the daytime of the Midyear Festival, Su Heting took his brother-in-law to go to the grave of his father-in-law and mother-in-law, and reserved a chance for another sister to chat alone.

After going back, Zhong Ling had already made the river lantern under the guidance of his husband, and before dark, the family went to the ditch outside the city to put the river lantern.

Seeing the river lanterns carrying expectations drifting away with the water, after watching the excitement for a while, everyone went home together.

You can't stay outside for too long during the midyear, and you should also fall asleep before the time of the child and avoid going out.

Coincidentally, after the Midyear Festival, it rained for two days, and it was impossible to start, so the itinerary could only be postponed.

When the road surface is a little drier, the group is on the journey.

However, it did not alarm the people of Tianqing County.

This time, the Qincha did not live in Su Heting's house, but lived in the post station, and they left the post station in batches under the pretext of traveling, and went to meet Su Heting and his wife on the way.

In addition to Nanchuan and Beimang, Su Heting and his wife only brought a maid from Lupothos.

Nanchuan and Beimang rode horses, and Su Heting personally drove the car, although the car was a carriage, it was small and simple.

After the round, one of the Qin cha couldn't help but say, "Master Su, how can you drive yourself?" We've got guards who can drive here, so you're still riding horses, right? Or maybe you can get in the car and sit down! ”

Su Heting smiled faintly: "My lord, I am sorry for the wrong love, but these things are all used to it, it's not a big deal, we can still save a manpower." To be honest, Xiaguan's riding skills are not very good. ”

Nanchuan and Beimang outside the car turned their heads to look at the sky, this is too hypocritical, it is clear that you want to be able to chat with the young grandmother at any time!

Pothos in the car: I'm too hard! And pretend to be deaf and dumb!

The Qin messengers persuaded him several times, but Su Heting refused to listen, so he could only give up.

In terms of grade, everyone is higher than Su Heting's official rank, but he has a good background and a future, and he has no reason to use official coercion to suppress people, so he has to let him do it.

The road conditions are not good.

When they came, they walked for nearly a month and a half, because it was summer, and the weather was changeable, so if it rained, they had to delay for a day or two.

After Qingzhou Mansion, there is a section of mountain road, extremely bumpy, of course, the cars that the Qincha sit in are all good cars, two horses are pulled, the carriage is also large, the facilities are complete, drink tea and eat snacks, and even if you are in a hurry, a small solution is not a problem.

However, walking on such a bumpy mountain road, I was completely offended, not to mention that the carriage could not go fast, and all my internal organs seemed to be about to be displaced, but looking at Mrs. Su, sitting in such a simple carriage, the speed of the road was not at all satisfied, and I did not hear any complaints.

They could occasionally hear Su Heting and Yuan Ning talking, and sometimes, it was Su Heting reciting poems. I don't think people are in a hurry, but like they are playing in the mountains and rivers.

Think about it again, I'm a big man, do I want to be compared to a woman?

Even if you grit your teeth, you have to hold on!

In fact, the carriage that Yuan Ning was riding was personally renovated, with the addition of shock absorbers, and the interior was also transformed.

After the suspension of the vehicle is completed, the cushions laid inside the car are also springed. It's a lot more comfortable to sit up. If the road is weak and stable, she will stretch her limbs in the car with Qingluo, which is much better than always sitting in a position.

In order to pass the boredom of the journey, she also started guessing riddles with Su Heting.

So when others heard Su Heting reciting poems, he was actually reciting riddles.

In case Qingluo felt left out, he also asked Su Heting to bake a roasted Qingluo's abacus and oral arithmetic ability.

Yuan Ning also briefly told them about some physics knowledge that they could accept.

The journey is not lonely, and it seems that the road is not so long.

When resting, Su Heting will also go to help Yuan Ning pick some wild flowers back, and there is a thin vase fixed on the inner wall of the carriage, which is decorated with these wild flowers, and the carriage is not monotonous, and it also adds some wild interest.

As soon as Yuan Ning has this kind of opportunity, he will take Qingluo around, and sit in the carriage for a long time, not to mention the stuffiness, after all, he is aggrieved.

Take a look at the scenery along the way and find inspiration.

Isn't Master Luban's making of saws inspired in the wild?

After walking for more than half a month, the road was relatively safe. But on the third day of the eighth month, they were ambushed on a dangerous stretch of road.

The other party came prepared, there were many people, and the means were very spicy, and there was a posture of leaving everyone here and burying them on the spot.

Even if they have encountered a small group of bandits, people do not dare to rush forward when they see their battle, even if there is a conflict, the guards they bring are all good at one in a hundred, and they can easily win.

But this time the ambush was very different.

The people who set up the ambush were all dressed in black and short, their faces were smeared with black ash, and the swords, guns and guns in their hands were extremely steely, and in terms of rank, they surpassed the best ordnance.

And as soon as you look at the way they attack, you can see that they have received formal training, advance and retreat in moderation, and have extremely lethality, but it is just a reunion, and the team on Qincha's side has lost one-fifth of its manpower.

As a last resort, I could only form a circle and guard the officials in the heart.

The Qincha are all Beijing officials, how have they ever seen such a bloody scene, they have already been frightened by the two trembling, unable to speak, and their faces are like earth.

There was a hint of mockery on the corners of Su Heting's slightly pursed lips, and he knew that this road would definitely not be peaceful. The old thief of Zhou Cheng couldn't hold his breath anymore.

He told Yuan Ning and Qingluo: "Don't get down in the car, there is me outside." ”

Yuan Ning responded softly and advised, "You must be careful. ”

The Qincha had long been unable to sit still in the car, and had already gathered together outside, trembling and having no rules, when they saw Su Heting coming over calmly, they were busy looking over, and at this time they were desperate for someone to come forward and take them out of the predicament.

The appearance of Su Heting was like a light that illuminated their hearts.

Su Heting came over and arched his hand at the people who were full of hope, "Everyone, do you see anything?" ”

Their side temporarily suppressed the opponent's attack with bows and arrows, and now it was a brief truce.

A Qin Cha frowned sadly, "Master Su, what can we do if we can see it?" I don't know if I'll be able to escape today! ”
