The sky was not yet bright, the moonlight had not yet faded, and in the thin fog of the early morning, dozens of horsemen galloped by, startling a cloud of smoke and dust.

There were only a few people waiting to enter the city outside the city gate, who were napping, and they were all awakened by the sound at this moment.

When they rubbed their eyes and followed the sound, they only saw billowing smoke and dust, and only the sound of horses' hooves in their ears reminded them that several horses galloped past.

"What's going on?"

"I don't know, maybe there's an urgent military business, right?"

Everyone speculated for a while, and then put the matter down again.

......

Lu Zheng and Lu Wen led a team of personal guards to gallop on the official road outside the North City Gate against the wind, biting the three people in front of them and holding on to them.

The three people in front also sensed that there were pursuers behind them, and they flicked their whips desperately, urging the horses under their crotches to run faster.

However, after all, he still couldn't run the big Wan Liangju under Lu Zheng's crotch.

Before they had run out of the city gate for thirty miles, the three men and three horsemen in front of them were surrounded.

Lu Zheng grabbed the reins, and the front hooves of the horse under his crotch were raised high, and after a neigh, the front hooves landed in front of the three people.

"Where is Deputy Commander Wang going?" Under the faint moonlight, Lu Zheng looked at the person in green clothes and hat in the middle with deep eyebrows.

The man didn't answer Lu Zheng's question, but the black horse under his crotch seemed to feel the owner's anxiety, and he raised his hooves restlessly.

Lu Zheng didn't care that his question was not answered, and when he saw that people didn't answer, he said to Lu Wen and the others: "Take it." ”

With a simple and clear order, Lu Wen and the others immediately bowed their heads, and then the cold light flashed, and the sword was already unsheathed.

The man in the middle finally spoke: "General Lu is going to drive me to a dead end today!" ”

"It's just a duty." Lu Zheng's voice was still indifferent and deep, and then without saying much, with a gesture, Lu Wen and the others had already stepped forward.

The three people who were surrounded looked at each other, a cold light flashed in their eyes, and then they also pulled out their side blades, and in an instant, they only heard a sonorous sound, several cold lights flashed, and everyone was entangled together.

At this point, Wang Wenzheng knew that he had no way back, and only by going forward could he have a glimmer of life, so he was very brave.

Lu Wen has been on the battlefield for a long time, and his kung fu foundation is not low, but he is difficult to defeat Wang Wenzheng, who is not afraid of life and death.

Wang Wenzheng slashed down with a knife, the blade grazed Lu Wen's shoulder with a cold air, Lu Wenze's horse bent down to dodge, the horse was frightened, neighed and retreated, Wang Wenzheng saw the opportunity and was about to rush out on his horse, but was blocked by Lu Zheng, who was killed by the oblique stab.

Lu Zheng handed over the other two to Qin Wei and Lu Wen, and concentrated on dealing with Wang Wenzheng himself.

The two of them are the same size, and their kung fu is about the same, but Lu Zheng has a lot more experience in fighting the enemy than Wang Wenzheng, so after a few moves, Wang Wenzheng feels that he is going to be invincible.

However, at this moment, Lu Zheng suddenly had a flaw, Wang Wenzheng saw this and hurriedly killed the past, almost using all his strength, slashing down with a knife, Lu Zheng had to dodge sideways, at this moment, Wang Wenzheng saw the opportunity, slammed the horse's belly, and the horse under the crotch galloped over, and rushed out of the encirclement.

By the time Lu Zheng reacted, Wang Wenzheng had already run out.

Lu Zheng shouted and chased, and Zhou Ying immediately withdrew with the three of them and chased after them desperately.

At the same time, Lu Wen also took the other two people, and seeing that Lu Zheng and Zhou Ying were chasing after them, Lu Wen ordered the remaining two to be tied hand and foot, and their mouths were also gagged, and then they took the others and escorted the two back to the city first.

When I went back again, it was the time when the north city gate was opened, and the soldiers guarding the gate carefully opened the city gate, and when they saw Lu Wen and his party coming back, they tied two people with five flowers, and immediately their legs were weak and they knelt down one after another.

Lu Wen waved his hand to call them up, and then without stopping long, he rode back to the city.

When the people waiting to enter the city saw this scene, some of them had the courage to ask the soldiers defending the city what had happened, but they only got a few scolding words, and they immediately did not dare to ask again.

In fact, the soldiers defending the city did not know what was going on, so they naturally had no way to answer the people's questions.

......

Lu Wen took the two people he caught, and went directly to the palace to see the prince.

Soon, the prince came out.

Lu Wen and the others saluted, the prince waved his hand and shouted, Lu Wen replied: "His Royal Highness the Prince of Qiqi, I have caught Ji Ye, the commander of the Nine Gates, and his deputy, Wang Wenzheng has let go, and the general has taken someone to chase him, I believe there will be news soon." ”

The prince had a calm face, bowed his head gently, and then looked at Ji Ye, who was tied up by the five flowers, and said for a long time: "Commander Ji, I really didn't expect that you would do this......"

Ji Ye looked dejected and hung his head silently, as if he had given up struggling and arguing.

There really is nothing to argue, because it is useless to refute.

It was only at this time that he understood that his every move was already under the supervision of the prince, so Lu Zheng was able to find out that he rescued Wang Wenzheng so quickly, and when he sent Wang Wenzheng out of the city, he brought people to arrest him.

Catch the thief and take the stolen goods, the evidence is in front of him, and he has no way to defend himself.

The crown prince didn't say much, but with a sad face, he ordered someone to invite a group of important ministers into the palace and ask them to discuss the matter together.

The main thing is to discuss whether to report the matter to the emperor.

Ji Ye is also the person who was brought up by Emperor Hui, and if he knew that Ji Ye was desperate to save the felons he ordered to be executed, he didn't know what would happen.

A group of important ministers came quickly, and then everyone was very surprised to see Ji Ye being tied up by five flowers.

However, no one dared to ask.

It was the right minister who asked first: "Your Highness...... Dare to ask what crime Lord Ji committed to being treated like this? ”

The prince's face was cold, and he seemed to be a little sad, so he didn't reply and asked: "What kind of crime does the prime minister think is it to enter the edict prison, rescue the felons who are about to be executed, and escort the felons out of the city?" ”

"What?!" Hearing this, the right prime minister's eyes couldn't help but widen in surprise.

Others reacted similarly to the right phase.

They couldn't believe it even more.

How could Ji Ye do such a thing?

Is he crazy, or is he stupid?!

However, whether Ji Ye is crazy or stupid, there is no doubt that he is completely finished.

As for who Ji Ye saved, it seems that there is no need to ask.

The felons who are about to be executed recently, apart from the Wang family, is there anyone else?

I heard that Ji Ye and Wang Wen have a good relationship, and the only one who wants to save is the Wang family.

But how dare he, or rather, why did he do it?

At this time, the Wang family is a hot potato, who is unlucky at all, Ji Ye has a good future, and he actually went to save the Wang family, he is probably really crazy......

Other than that, people don't seem to be able to think of a more reasonable explanation.

Of course, the prince called them not to let them guess Ji Ye's psychology, but to ask them to discuss whether to report the matter to Emperor Hui.
