Chapter 218: General Liu makes a move

In the second half of the night, a fire broke out at the post station where the envoys were resting, the weather was dry, and the fire spread quickly!

In particular, the courtyard that Liu Renci negotiated with the post station before was specially for Qin Shuhuang to live in was the most seriously fired.

While fighting the fire, the guards noticed that a strange man in black had infiltrated the envoys.

By the time the fire was finally extinguished, it was almost dawn!

Less than half of the entire inn was burned down.

After the subordinate officials counted it, they came with the guards to report, and Liu Renci received them with a tired face.

"How's it going?"

The official in charge of statistics said: "Firewood was quietly piled up and oil poured around the post station and several remote courtyards, and then the fire suddenly broke out and spread quickly. Five people were injured in the fire fighting in the envoys' ranks, three were injured in response to the sudden appearance of the man in black, and one man in black was captured alive but committed suicide by poisoning. The courtyard you arranged for Her Royal Highness the Eldest Princess was burned beyond recognition, and it was the most damaged! In addition to the burned supplies, none of the materials brought by the team were found. ”

Liu Renci's eyes narrowed slightly, and Yi Cheng was sweating profusely just now to explain that this was set on fire and robbed by robbers, it seems that this is not the case!

It's just that the Regent's people did it!

"Comfort the wounded, if there is no way to go on the road, throw them at the post station to recuperate, and when the injuries are healed, let them return to the capital on their own."

Liu Renci had just finished arranging here, and the Tisang envoys of Beidi came over to offer condolences with a sad face.

"I didn't expect to meet such a bold bandit in Dawu! Dare to burn down the official post! Lord Liu will definitely tell the magistrate to punish him severely! I heard that the courtyard where His Highness lives was seriously damaged, but I wonder how His Highness is now? Is it convenient for the ministers to visit and condole? ”

Liu Renci glanced at Tisang, who was full of inquiry, "Your Highness is frightened, he is resting, it is inconvenient to inquire, Lord Tisang, please go back." ”

Tisan did not give up because of this, "I have here the peace talisman given by the high priest of Beidi, which can be used to suppress the shock, and it must be extremely useful to Her Royal Highness the eldest princess, and I want to personally present it to Her Royal Highness the eldest princess." ”

Liu Renci glanced at the old servant Ah Hai beside him, and Ah Hai stepped forward and bowed down in front of Tisan and stretched out his hands.

"Lord Tisan has a heart, please hand over the talisman to Liu, and Liu will personally transfer it to Her Royal Highness the eldest princess."

The corners of Tisang's mouth twitched, Liu Renci couldn't make sense here, so he could only take out the talisman from the purse on his waist and hand it to Ah Hai.

Ah Hai accepted the talisman and retreated behind Liu Renci.

Tisan took a break and left.

Not long after, Tisan met with General Liu.

"General Liu, how's it going? Is Her Royal Highness the eldest princess in the ranks of the envoys? ”

General Liu shook his head with a cold face.

deliberately set fire to the post station, and then sent someone to search the post station, the entire post station was turned over by his people, and Qin Shuhuang was not seen, Liu Renci said that the courtyard arranged for Qin Shuhuang to live in only two maids with raw faces lived in it!

Liu Renci, this old fox!

Tisan was surprised, "Could it be that the eldest princess followed the other team?" Is there any news from the other team of General Liu? ”

"Not yet, there will be news by tomorrow night at the latest."

General Liu's eyes were ruthless, he was staring at Qin Shuhuang's exit from the capital to meet Liu Renci, could Qin Shuhuang still turn into a butterfly and fly away?

If it's not here, it's definitely on the other side!

With that, General Liu turned and left, as if he didn't want to say another word to Tissandor.

Tisan frowned and stared at General Liu's figure, his heart was conflicted and entangled, in fact, he didn't really want His Royal Highness the eldest princess of Dawu to be assassinated by General Liu.

With this here, maybe his master can plan more benefits for Beidi.

Liu Renci's side has been exposed, which Qin Shuhuang and Liu Renci had expected before.

The envoy team did not stop because of this, and after only half a day's delay, Liu Renci set off for Beidi with the envoy team again.

In the imagination of the regent and General Liu, as long as Qin Shuhuang was eliminated first, then the envoy team led by Liu Renci would let them pinch and flatten, and when the time came, they would just sprinkle water, and there was no need to dwell on it at the beginning, so as not to arouse the opposition of the neutral ministers in the court.

Ruihe Shilan and the others spent the night in fear.

As soon as the morning dawned, the team pulled out the camp and left the camping place.

He Yutian said to Song Yiqiu: "Brother Song, those people didn't make a move last night, I'm afraid I can't help it today, we must be careful today." ”

Song Yiqiu bowed his head, "Then do what we discussed before!" ”

"Good!"

An hour after the team set off in the morning, they reached an intersection, and Ruihe's team was divided into two teams.

One team was led by Song Yiqiu, one of the carriages was sitting Ruihe wearing Qin Shuhuang's clothes, and the other team was led by He Yutian, and in the carriage was Shilan, who also changed Qin Shuhuang's clothes.

The people who had been following from a distance saw it and immediately divided into two teams to pursue.

When Qin Shuhuang's two teams traveled to a remote place, they were ambushed respectively.

More than half of the people in the two teams are the guards in the eldest princess's mansion, and they are led by Song Yiqiu and He Yutian respectively, and their abilities are no worse than the black-clothed people who suddenly attacked.

Qin Shuhuang explained to Ruihe Shilan in the letter that if she encounters a strong opponent, in order to keep her own manpower, the two of them no longer need to hide the fact that she is not in the team, and the two days they have to fight for her are enough.

A group of black-clothed men attacked the carriage where "Qin Shuhuang" was.

Rao is Song Yiqiu tried his best to stop it, but the carriage was still cut open by the man in black.

At the critical moment, when Ruihe's life was in danger, the hood on his face was knocked down by the man in black, and the face revealed was not Qin Shuhuang's at all!

The man in black at the head was stunned.

Qin Shuhuang is not in the team, they don't have any need to fight hard!

The man in black gritted his teeth and made a retreat gesture to his subordinates.

The men in black, who had been beaten in half, immediately retreated in unison, got on their horses and left quickly.

The horses galloped for half an hour to meet another wave of men in black.

The two men in black contacted and said at the same time, "How?" ”

There is no need to answer, you can see from the eyes of both sides that both teams have missed.

The leader of the men in black had a face as black as ink, "It's not good, turn the tiger away from the mountain!" We are now rushing to report to General Liu, and we can only hope that Her Royal Highness the eldest princess is still in the ranks of envoys. ”

After the black-clothed man who had raided retreated, he did not get angry and desperately as Qin Shuhuang expected in his letter.

After the confrontation with the man in black, there were no injuries in the two teams, only a few guards were slightly injured, and there was no major problem, and they were raised all the way.

Ruihe Song Yiqiu, Shilan He Yutian and the others did not dare to stay in place, and hurriedly packed up and continued to move forward according to the plan.

They agreed to meet at Aocheng in three days, and then take another road to Beidi, because if they did not go with the envoys, their speed would be faster than Liu Renci.

After arriving at the border first, they planned to go incognito, secretly help His Highness inquire about news and arrange accommodation.

After staying safely on the passenger ship for two nights in a row, Qin Shuhuang and Xuan Cang had finished eating the dry food they had brought and had to leave the cabin to go to the deck to find food for the ship's family.

As soon as the two of them walked to the deck, they found that the channel in front of the Lingjiang River was blocked by two official ships!
