Chapter 363: Rendezvous
The palace wall is less than four feet high, which may be unattainable for ordinary people, but for Wu Hongxian, it is just a matter of jumping.
This is also the reason why Nangong Ding did not send heavy troops to guard Wu Hongxian, because it was in vain.
Turning over the wall, he didn't care about the strange eyes of the people around him, Wu Hongxian picked an alley and got in.
As a person who has lived in the Jinglin Imperial City for decades, the terrain in the city is naturally very familiar.
Picked a few remote alleys with no people, turned around and around, and in less than a quarter of an hour, Wu Hongxian had already arrived at the Xicheng in the mouth of the little eunuch.
He looked out into the alley and saw three grocery stores, one of which had no signboard and only an old flag with the word "grocery" on it.
Looking at the door again, there is a pot of peonies on it, but the double door is closed.
Without saying a word, Wu Hongxian immediately climbed over the wall and went in.
There was a yard in the grocery store, and his figure landed here.
As soon as he heard the movement, Xu Yuanzhong immediately walked out of the room.
He naturally recognized Wu Hongxian.
"Gonggong Wu, you're finally here." Xu Yuanzhong looked overjoyed.
"What about people?" Xu Yuanzhong asked coldly.
"Quick, bring them out." Xu Yuanzhong said to the grocery store owner.
Suddenly, Wu Chunxia was supported by his son and walked out of the room.
When the three of them met, tears welled up in their eyes.
"Brother." Wu Chunxia couldn't cry anymore.
"Uncle." The middle-aged man's voice was also choked.
"Sister, Dong'er." Wu Hongxian was overjoyed and quickly walked to the two of them.
Wu Chunxia's son is called Liu Dong, and Dong'er is Wu Hongxian's nickname for him.
"It's really you." The three of them clasped hands tightly.
Seeing their pale faces, Wu Hongxian couldn't help but grit his teeth again.
"Can the female godlord abuse you?"
"Uncle, there is no abuse, but I don't see the light all day long, and I feel uncomfortable." Liu Dong replied.
"Brother." Wu Chunxia took Wu Hongxian's hand and said to him, "Thanks to this strong man's rescue, otherwise our mother and son would probably have to die in King Zhao's mansion."
Hearing this, Wu Hongxian collected his emotions, walked to Xu Yuanzhong's side, and solemnly bowed.
"Commander Xu, today's kindness, our family will definitely repay you."
"Gonggong Wu is polite, the female king is in charge, David is not a minister, the king is not a king, the lord of Yiyang has the intention to set things right, but his strength is not good, and he hopes that his father-in-law will help."
Xu Yuanzhong put forward the conditions in a timely manner.
"But...... Our family betrayed the emperor, and we were terrified in our hearts, tossing and turning day and night, will the county lord of Yiyang still believe in our family?" Wu Hongxian's face was full of doubt.
"Father-in-law Wu, don't worry, the county lord already knows that you are forced, and he is not surprised." Xu Yuan replied loyally.
Not to mention that he was forced, even if Wu Hongxian voluntarily defected to Nangong Ding, and rebelled into the white-robed army at this time, Nangong Banmeng would gladly accept it.
"Really?"
"Nothing to be said."
"Okay, our family is fighting for this old life, and we will also help the county lord take the life of the female godmaster."
Wu Hongxian's words came from the bottom of his heart.
"Father-in-law is righteous, and I admire it." Xu Yuanzhong then said: "This place is not suitable for a long time, let's go out of the city immediately, ten miles west of the city is the place where the white-robed army is encamped, and when we get there, we will be completely safe."
"But the city gate guard may recognize me, and the female god king will never let me out of the city, what should I do?" Wu Hongxian asked.
"A few city gate guards, is it still rare for you to be a peerless master?" Xu Yuanzhong smiled slightly.
"You mean, kill it?"
"Yes, time is pressing, I'm afraid that Zhao Wangfu has already discovered the abnormality at this time, and we have no extra time to disguise the plan, so we can only rush out." Xu Yuanzhong replied.
After thinking about it, Wu Hongxian nodded heavily: "Okay, you will follow me then, don't act rashly."
It's not that he's afraid that he won't be able to beat the city gate guards, but
is afraid that he will hurt Wu Chunxia's mother and son.
"Understood, let's go."
Xu Yuanzhong spoke.
But Wu Chunxia's mother and son did not move.
Seeing this, Xu Yuanzhong was a little anxious, and asked, "Old lady, what's wrong?"
"Brother, Commander Xu, let's go, what should I do with that old man?" Wu Chunxia frowned.
Wu Chunxia's husband, as well as Liu Dong's wife and children, have been closely monitored by the people of the Tsing Yi Division, and Xu Yuanzhong has no way to rescue them in advance.
"Yes, uncle, my wife and children are still in the city, and as soon as we leave, won't they be slaughtered?" Liu Dong was also worried about speaking out.
In fact, for Wu Hongxian, Wu Chunxia and Liu Dong are the people he cares about the most.
As for their families, they don't have too much direct contact on weekdays, and Wu Hongxian still knows how to make trade-offs.
"Don't worry, old lady." Xu Yuanzhong said, "The county lord is already trying to rescue them."
Helpless, he could only lie.
If you don't leave, no one will be able to leave.
"Really?" Liu Dong's eyes widened, and his heart was overjoyed.
Without a positive answer, Xu Yuanzhong urged: "If we don't set off again, maybe when your family is rescued to the white-robed army, we will be buried in the city."
"Let's go!"
exuding a fierce energy, Wu Hongxian's voice was not loud, but it made people dare not refute.
In the courtyard, a carriage has long been prepared.
Wu Hongxian and the three got into the carriage, Xu Yuanzhong was in charge of driving, his identity has not been exposed yet, maybe the city gate guards will not dare to check his car.
Opening the side door of the courtyard, the carriage swaggered into the main street.
The grocery store was only a hundred feet from the city gate, and the group held their breath, their hearts beating up and down as the carriage trembled.
In the blink of an eye, the crowd came to the city gate.
The guard recognized Xu Yuanzhong and stepped forward to salute with his fists.
"Commander Xu, is this going out of the city?"
"On the orders of the prince, go out of the city to meet the lord of Yiyang." Xu Yuanzhong moved out of Nangong Ding, intending not to let the other party ask too much.
Glancing at the car, the guard was attentive.
"How did Commander Xu drive himself?"
Hearing this, Xu Yuanzhong could only reply: "It's not a secret, Your Majesty has made a decree to the county lord, and I will take Chief Feng out of the city to announce the decree."
"This ......," the guard looked confused.
"Last time Chief Feng went out of the city, wasn't it all escorted by the Black Dragon Guard?"
"This is a big deal, and I'll be escorted by the Commander himself." Xu Yuanzhong replied.
The guard muttered in his heart, you are a person who has no cultivation, how can you talk about escorting?
But he said: "The prince has an order, and all cars that enter and leave the city must be strictly investigated, please forgive the general for being rude."
The implication is that he wants to check the driver.
"Presumptuous!"
At this time, Wu Hongxian's duck voice came from the car.
They are all eunuchs, and if they are not close to them, it is difficult to tell whose voice it is.
But it can be clearly discerned whether it is the eunuch's unique voice.
"Can you afford to delay the prince's business?"
The guard heard the voice of the eunuch, and hurriedly bowed his head to make amends.
"Chief Feng forgives his sins, and the last general is just acting on orders."
