Chapter 110: Wild Wolf Slope Clever Serial Scheme
After dusk, the sky became very dark and dark, and the capital was shrouded in a pale blue smoke.
The prince was dressed in civilian clothes and took five or six attendants out of Shaoyang Palace, and rode slowly towards the south of the city.
This scene was seen by Vashon, who came to watch him, and he jumped on his horse and followed closely. Not far out of the city, he beat his horse like a fly and took a shortcut to the wild wolf slope.
After leaving Beijing, the prince and his party slowed down for several miles, suddenly increased their speed, and suddenly stopped sharply at a three-way intersection. They went up to a side path, then hid their horses and went into a thick grass.
After waiting for less than two pillars of incense, he saw a team of horses galloping along the road, and after a while, they disappeared into the hazy night. It turned out that this group of people was Li Yunhan, King Jing and his personal guards.
Seeing King Jing's horse team walking away, the prince let out a long breath......
When night fell, the cold wind on the wild wolf slope blew through, and the fog was filled in all directions.
Ji Wen had already set up an ambush on both sides of the ramp. He looked up at the dimly lit thatched hermitage on the slope for a while, and then looked around, looking a little restless, and said: "This slope is surrounded by cliffs on three sides, and there is only a narrow mountain road in and out, which can be described as easy to defend and difficult to attack. ”
Tong Li said: "Don't worry, adults; When they go up the slope, as long as we hold the slope, won't we catch turtles in the urn! ”
Ji Wen smiled when he heard this, said "um", and said, "Inform all the soldiers that you must not accidentally injure the prince when arresting the murderer." ”
Tong Linuo said goodbye and took the order.
At this time, Vashon took a shortcut and rushed to the front and reported to Ji Wen that the prince and his party were coming along the road in the direction of the wild wolf slope.
Ji Wen was quite impressed when he heard this, and showed a wicked smile: "It seems that the bird is about to enter the net,"
Before the laughter fell, he suddenly heard the sound of horses' hooves from the northwest, Ji Wen looked up, and in the blink of an eye, he rode at a gallop. When the man reached the slope, he jumped off his horse and led his horse up the slope. It turned out that this person was Wu Qi, who wore a hat and made up a little makeup and pretended to be Mintai.
Wu Qi arrived in front of the hermitage, tied the horse, and knocked on the door several times in a row. As soon as the door opened, Miao Jin walked out, glanced at Wu Qi, and said in a loud voice: "Yo, it turned out to be General Mintai." ”
Wu Qi said "um" and shouted, "Miss Luo, has the prince arrived?" ”
Miao Jin hurriedly replied: "The prince has not arrived yet, please come into the house and wait for a while." ”
The sound of the two of them faintly reached Ji Wen's ears, he looked at the blurred figures of the two, and mistakenly thought that Min Tae had arrived, and his hanging heart suddenly let go, and let out a long breath.
The night was dark, and the fog under the mountain was getting heavier.
In less than half an hour, several more fast riders arrived down the slope. Then the group dismounted, led the horses up the high slope, and went straight to the hermitage. It turned out that this group of people was King Jing and his attendants brought by Li Yunhan.
Due to the thick fog of the mountain, Ji Wen couldn't see clearly from a distance, and mistakenly thought that the prince had arrived, so he hurriedly ordered the encirclement to be tightened......
When he arrived at the hermitage, Li Yunhan gently pushed open the door and accompanied King Jing into the house. The four accompanying guards stayed outside the door to stand guard and wait.
Seeing that King Jing had arrived, Miaojin, Wu Qi, Du Shaoling, Du Miao and others hurriedly stepped forward to pay their respects one by one.
After saluting, King Jing glanced at everyone and asked, "Where is Mintai?" ”
Wu Qi hurriedly said that he hadn't arrived yet; Persuade King Jing to wait a little longer.
Miaojin stepped forward and cried to King Jing about his father's wrongful victimization and how he was hunted and killed.
King Jing couldn't help but feel sad after hearing this, and asked, "What about the secret letter?" ”
Miao Jin took the wax pill containing the secret letter from her bun and presented it to him. Seeing that King Jing wanted to open the wax pill, she snatched it back again, explaining: "Therefore, if the white phosphorus is smeared, it will spontaneously combust after seeing it." ”
King Jing was very disappointed when he heard this: "In this way, this king will not be able to know the contents of the letter......
"Your Highness, forgive me." Miaojin said unhurriedly, "My father had an explanation before his death, and ordered the little girl to hand over this letter to His Majesty. ”
"This," King Jing was very dissatisfied when he heard this, "it seems that this king has run away again." ”
"No, I beg Your Highness to bring the little girl into the palace and meet Your Majesty."
After hearing this, King Jing shook his head, his tone was a little stiff, and said, "Since I don't know what this letter is about, how can this king explain it to his father?" After speaking, he moved his gaze to Li Yunhan and glared at him fiercely, "This king has taken his leave." ”
Seeing this, Li Yunhan hurriedly stepped forward to stop him, and said earnestly: "Your Highness is slow, let me persuade her." ”
King Jing snorted, reluctantly agreed, and twisted his head to the side......
Da Fu, who was hidden in the deep grass outside the hermitage, saw King Jing enter the house and waited for a while to order his subordinates to release arrows. As several sharp arrows slashed, one of the guards and several horses fell to the ground, and the others shouted in surprise and dodged.
Ji Wen and the others, who were lying in ambush at the bottom of the slope, heard the shouts of killing, and mistakenly thought that the prince's guards had discovered the ambush and wanted to escape, so they urgently ordered their subordinates to rush towards the thatched hermitage.
Seeing this, Da Fu ordered his men to shoot several arrows with fireballs; The arrows landed on the hermitage and quickly burst into flames with the help of the strong wind.
Wu Qi, Shaoling, and Du Miao heard the sound and walked out of the house, pushing the rolling logs and stones prepared in advance down the hillside. The officers and men who rushed ahead had no time to dodge for a while, and they rolled down the slope one after another.
King Jing heard a shout of killing outside the house, and immediately panicked; A wounded guard came running to report that a group of unknown men had come to besiege him.
King Jing sneered when he heard this, stared at Li Yunhan closely, and asked what was going on?
"This," Li Yunhan's face turned red, and he stepped forward quickly, "Your Highness, don't worry, please follow me out of danger!" ”
"If you don't make it clear, this king won't go anywhere." King Jing's tone was firm, and he stood still.
The roof caught fire, and a wooden beam suddenly fell down. Seeing this, Li Yunhan hurriedly pushed King Jing aside. Although King Jing escaped, he was still scratched on his forehead by sawdust.
Seeing that the situation was critical, Li Yunhan couldn't help but pull King Jing out of the hut.
Seeing that Wu Qi, Du Miao and others were stubbornly guarding the slope, King Jing hesitated, pointed to the besiegers under the slope, and asked, "Who are they?" ”
"This ...... The villain doesn't know. Wu Qi looked nervous, "Your Highness, it's important to run for your life." ”
Seeing that King Jing was still hesitating, Li Yunhan hurriedly led him to the back of the slope and went down to the bottom of the slope along the rope ladder prepared in advance.
Wu Qi saw that everyone was going down the high slope, so he also followed down the ladder and escaped.
Unexpectedly, one of the guards was shot in the calf, and before he could reach the rope ladder, he was caught by the officers and soldiers who rushed up.
Ji Wen immediately interrogated the guard, and when he learned that King Jing had arrived, he couldn't help but be shocked, so he ordered his men to withdraw from the high slope and return to the same place.
At this time, Lin Fu rushed over, and when he heard that Miaojin, Mintai and others had escaped, he couldn't help but be furious and shouted, "Why don't you chase and kill?" ”
Ji Wen pointed to the captured guards on one side and said, "According to this person's confession, the person who came was not the prince, but the king of Jing; I was worried about fraud, so I didn't chase it. ”
"King Jing......" Lin Fu listened and took a cool breath.
"Lord Lin, you have to be careful;" Ji Wen softened his tone, "If you accidentally hurt King Jing......"
"Now, I can't take care of it so much." Lin Fu pondered for a moment, and a cold light appeared in his eyes, "No matter what, let's find the secret letter first, get rid of Min Tai and the woman surnamed Luo." ”
Ji Wen persuaded him a few more words, and when he saw that it was difficult to convince him for a while, he had to lead his men and horses to chase and kill.
Li Yunhan and others escorted King Jing down to the bottom of the valley, and hurried west for a while to the turbulent Ape King River. The wooden bridge over the river had been torn down into three or five sections, and the bridge slabs had fallen into the water, and there was not even a shadow of a boat in the gray sky.
Miao Jin was quite puzzled when he saw it, and said: "The bridge was fine when I passed by in the morning, why was it destroyed again after half a day......
"Then let's not go." King Jing sneered and asked Li Yunhan, "Say, who is chasing and killing?" ”
"Your Highness is frightened;" Li Yunhan bowed deeply to King Jing, "According to the speculation, it must be Na Lin Fu." ”
"Lin Fu ......," King Jing's eyes widened, "why is he like this?" ”
"I thought or he wanted to get the secret letter and kill people."
King Jing snorted and said, "Then the king is waiting here to see what he can do with this king!" With that, he sat down on the grass.
"Your Highness, the night is dark and the wind is high, if I accidentally hurt you, then I can't tell." Li Yunhan persuaded a few words, but seeing that King Jing was still indifferent, he turned his gaze to Wu Qi, saying that this place was not far from the Golden Immortal Temple, and ordered him to go to Princess Pingyu quickly and ask her to come to answer.
Wu Qinuo sighed, and when he was about to leave, he suddenly remembered something: "Then, how can the princess believe me?" ”
Li Yunhan took off the jade pendant and handed it to him: "With this pendant, she will believe it." ”
Wu Qi took the jade pendant and twisted away.
Li Yunhan comforted King Jing for a while, and finally persuaded him. They got up and hurried west, walking hundreds of paces into a deep and dark birch forest. Except for the clatter sound of stepping on the fallen leaves, there was a deathly silence all around.
Suddenly, Xiao Ban screamed a few times, and the silence was broken in an instant, and everyone immediately became alert.
Suddenly, the little spotted jumped out of the chicken coop and flapped its wings and flew to the top of the birch tree. Then there was a scream, and a man in black fell from mid-air. It turned out that Chu Qing was not at ease after learning about the situation, and Paiso Owl secretly rushed over with his subordinates, wanting to ambush here.
Li Yunhan walked in front of the man in black and took a closer look, only to know that he was pecked by Xiao Ban and fell to the ground and died. He suddenly sensed that the situation was not good, and reminded everyone to be careful while retreating.
As he flew towards another tree, he was hit in the wing by a cold arrow, and he fell into the grass with a wail.
Shaoling hurriedly stepped forward to pick up the small spot, and saw that its injuries were not too serious, so he applied some hemostatic medicine to it and hid it in the tree hole.
At this time, with a whistle, more than ten masked strong men jumped out of the dense forest, holding knives and guns to surround Li Yunhan and the others.
Li Yunhan brandished his sword and fought with Shao Ling and the others while fighting hard with the masked men, while protecting King Jing and fleeing out of the dense forest.
Due to the large number of opponents, their martial arts skills, and their ruthless shots, Li Yunhan and the others fought hard for a while and soon fell behind.
Seeing that he was about to win, Suo Owl couldn't help but sneer a few times proudly. Before the laughter fell, a loud shout came from behind him: "The thief is going to be rampant, and I Qilang is here." "It turned out that Wu Qi arrived with Princess Pingyu and others who came to the rescue.
Li Yunhan was in high spirits when he saw it, and shouted at Shaoling: "Bring the wine!" ”
Shao Ling was stunned and hurriedly picked up the wine bag from the grass, threw it casually, and said, "Drink less, be careful of mistakes!" ”
Li Yunhan flew up and took the wine bag, took a few sips, and said: "Drunken Immortal, three cups lead to the avenue, one bucket is natural!" ”
was drinking, but unexpectedly, the owl took advantage of the situation to stab obliquely, and Li Yunhan hurriedly dodged to avoid it; Wu Qi rushed to help and joined forces with him to deal with Suo Owl.
Seeing Princess Pingyu coming to help, Suo Owl couldn't help but feel a little timid; After seven or eight rounds of fighting, the knife technique gradually became chaotic and some could not resist; He was anxious to get out and leave, but in a panic, he was slashed in the calf by Wu Qiyi. The owl let out a cry of pain and fell to the ground.
Li Yunhan took advantage of the situation to hold his sword against Suo Owl's neck, tore off his mask, and shouted, "Say, but Chu Qing sent you?" ”
"If you want to kill, you will kill, so much less trouble!" The Owl said dismissively.
"Kill you, I'm afraid of staining this sword." After saying that, Li Yunhan ordered someone to tie him up.
At this moment, a cold arrow flew from the darkness, piercing the back of the owl's heart; He screamed and fell to the ground. It turned out that this arrow was shot immediately, with the intention of killing people and destroying their mouths.
Li Yunhan urgently ordered everyone to be careful; Before the words fell, another wave of arrows flew like rain, and in a moment the other masked men fell to the ground one after another.
The rain of arrows stopped, and then a group of officers and soldiers rushed up and surrounded Li Yunhan, Miaojin and others.
Seeing this, King Jing stepped forward and shouted, "This king is here, who dares to assassinate?" ”
"Your Highness, it's rude." Ji Wen stepped forward from behind the soldier and saluted him, "It's too late to save the car, please forgive me!" ”
"Help," King Jing sneered twice, "Why are you chasing and killing this king all the way?" ”
"Your Highness has misunderstood." Ji Wen smiled dryly and said unhurriedly, "On the orders of Lin Xiang, I came to arrest the traitor Mintai and others." ”
"Mintai," King Jing was stunned for a moment, "what about the others?" ”
"Back to Your Highness, Mintai has fled."
"Master Ji is really good at laughing." The corners of King Jing's mouth twitched, and he pointed at Li Yunhan and the others, "Since you have escaped, why did you intercept and kill them?" ”
"Your Highness doesn't know anything," Ji Wen glanced at Miaojin on the side, and pointed at her, "This woman is the anti-thief Luo Feng, who colluded with Li Yunhan and others to openly confront the officers and soldiers and want to do wrong!" ”
"Hugh is talking nonsense." Ping Yu strode forward and scolded Ji Wen angrily, "If I arrive one step late today, won't King Jing also be harmed by you!" ”
Ji Wen's body trembled violently, and he bowed his head and said, "Your Highness is serious; Ji was ordered to arrest key criminals, please do not obstruct official business! ”
"Hmph, is my father-in-law mainly agreeing?"
"Then don't blame you for being rude!" Ji Wen said and glanced at Tong Li. Tong Li immediately commanded a group of officers and soldiers to rush to the front, wanting to capture Miaojin. When Li Yunhan and the others saw it, they hurriedly held their knives and faced each other, guarding Miaojin on the one hand.
The two sides were at a stalemate, and suddenly heard a shout: "Master Ji, Hugh is rude!" When the crowd turned their heads to look, they saw Lynver striding out from behind the soldiers. When he arrived at Princess Pingyu and King Jing, he gave a deep salute and said, "Princess, Your Highness, Lin has made amends." ”
King Jing was shocked and asked him why he was here?
Lin Fu coughed dryly and said unhurriedly: "It is reported that the rebel thief Mintai is operating in the area of Wild Wolf Slope, and he urgently ordered Ji Wen to come and arrest him; Suddenly, I heard that His Royal Highness was here, and in order to prevent accidents, I had to personally lead the forbidden army to come to protect it. ”
"You've got a quick message." King Jing sneered, "What about the Mintai people? ”
"Back to Your Highness, this thief has fled when he hears the wind and does not know where to go."
Hearing this, King Jing had already understood seven or eight points in his heart. He glanced at Li Yunhan coldly, slightly remorseful, and sighed lightly: "Alas, it's really God's will." ”
Seeing that the situation had eased somewhat, Ji Wen glanced at the few guards beside King Jing, and saw that they were only slightly injured, and felt a little relieved in his heart, and said to King Jing falsely: "I have offended this time, and I ask Your Highness for forgiveness!" ”
Although King Jing was full of grievances when he heard this, he could only take this fault to Li Yunhan, and he didn't want to go deeper, so he said indifferently: "No need." ”
"Your Highness, this is just a misunderstanding," Lin Fu said with a smile on his face, "This place is not far from the Taohe Official Station, and I will escort you to rest here." ”
King Jing hesitated after hearing this, pointed at Li Yunhan and the others, and asked, "What about them?" ”
"Your Highness, don't worry; Since these people have nothing to do with Mintae, of course they must be let go. Lynver said and winked at Ji Wen.
When Ji Wen saw it, he immediately understood, and ordered the soldiers to step aside.
King Jing couldn't help but stretch his brows when he saw the besiegers disperse, sneered at Li Yunhan, and said, "The moon is dark and the wind is high, sir, let's do it yourself." ”
With that, King Jing jumped on his horse and left Ye'er Langpo with a few wounded guards and Lin Fu.
