The feather arrow almost penetrated Song Tai's arm, and the severe pain made it difficult for him to compete with Wei Xu who straddled the horse and crossed the sword, plus there was no war horse, just a charge, and he was almost tripped by the front hooves of Wei Xu's war horse.

Seeing Song Tai's danger, the three warriors beside him swung their weapons and pounced almost at the same time.

Since they came in disguise, they didn't have long weapons in their hands at all, which was obviously an advantage compared to the long knives in Wei Xu's hands.

Within a few moments, all three of them were already wounded.

Song Tai gritted his teeth and tried to pull out the feather arrow on his arm, but because of the excessive force, he was hooked by the barb of the feather arrow and hooked the arm bone, and the blood flowed like an infusion in an instant.

Song Tai knew that he could not escape, and pounced on Yu Jiao, who was standing aside.

Yu Jiao is a civil official, although Song Tai has a wound on his arm, but Yu Jiao still does not dare to face him head-on, and when he sees him pounce and turn his head, he leaves.

Song Tae grabbed him by the collar from behind.

Wei Xu slashed the two warriors with a swing of his sword, and the flying horse rushed towards Song Tai, but he didn't want to be slashed by a wounded warrior who fell to the ground with a sword, and the horse let out a roar and fell to its knees with its front hooves.

Wei Xu rolled off his horse.

With a leap, Wei Xu jumped up, picked up the long knife and slashed the warrior's body.

Song Tai grabbed Yu Jiao's collar with one arm and blocked him in front of him.

"Son, the old man will not let you succeed even if he dies." As he spoke, this guy actually lowered his head and slammed into the head on Yu Jiao.

Yu Jiao screamed in pain, his body shook, and he almost fell down.

"Old thief, how dare you deceive my friends?" Wei Xu strode over, but the long knife in his hand was raised, but he didn't dare to fall.

Although all the soldiers had the intention to help Wei Xu, they didn't dare to step forward easily when they thought of what he had just said about killing Song Tai with his own hands.

Song Tae was also knocked dizzy.

It seems that it is not easy to smash two heads into pieces.

"The widow stepped back, otherwise the old man would ask your friend to go underground first." Song Tae roared.

Seeing Song Tai's uninjured hand clutching Yu Jiao's neck, Wei Xu hesitated.

He knew Song Tai's skills, if he really used his strength, I was afraid that it would be difficult for this weak Yu Jiao to escape death.

The back of Yu Jiao's head was buzzing, and he was just a little sober at this time.

"The old general threatened me with a weak scholar, which really insulted the old general's reputation. If you really have some ability, can you dare to fight with General Wei Xu on the horse for a few rounds? Yu Jiao said.

Song Tae sneered.

"When the old man crossed the horse to fight, you waited for the junior to be born yet, but this time you came to argue with the old man, and the old man wanted you to know that the old general was undiminished." As he spoke, with one arm, he actually picked up Yu Jiao.

A strange sound instantly sounded in Yu Jiao's throat, and a pair of eyes bulged out in an instant.

"Stop, old horseman." Wei Xu shouted.

Song Tai carried Yu Jiao to the soldiers behind him.

The soldiers were worried that they would hurt Yu Jiao, so they all dodged to the sides.

Yu Jiao's hands were clutched in mid-air, and his face had turned the color of pig liver.

A crisp bowstring sounded.

A feathered arrow swept over the shoulders of many soldiers and stabbed steadily into Song Tai's heart.

Song Tae's body shook, his hands immediately lost strength, and he sat on the ground.

Yu Jiao was thrown at Song Tai's feet, spit out in one breath, and rolled on the ground without moving.

Almost at the same time, a black shadow leaped up from behind the soldier and came to Song Tai, flying up and kicking him.

Song Tai came to Wei Xu's feet.

"If it weren't for General Wei Xu's words that he would kill this person with his own hands, my arrow would have killed his dog." The person who came put the treasure carving bow in his hand behind his back and said lightly.

"Your Majesty?" Wei Xu was taken aback.

Everyone was shocked.

"General Wei Xu is not polite, and he still doesn't take revenge?" Liu Yong said.

Wei Xu woke up from the stunned crowd and looked down to see Song Tai still struggling on the ground, swinging a knife to cut off a huge head of him.

Numerous soldiers knelt on the ground.

Liu Yong waved his hand and asked everyone to get up, but he walked quickly to Yu Jiao.

Yu Jiao's throat was almost cut by Song Tai, and he was just awake at this time.

"In order to kill this thief, I almost broke one of my virtuous ministers, if Lord Yujiao loses, I will not spare you." Liu Yong pointed to Wei Xu, who was still kneeling on the ground, and said.

"Wechen knows his mistake." Wei Xu naturally knew that Liu Yong's words were just a joke, and he also said it to Yu Jiao.

Yu Jiao got up from the ground and spat out several mouthfuls of dirt in his mouth.

"This official helped you take revenge, but you almost took your life, and you should repay me in the future."

"The villain will never forget the grace of Lord Yujiao." Wei Xu replied.

Liu Yong smiled at the two.

"You two will be my left and right arms in the future, and I can't lose them."

"Thank you, Your Majesty." The two were overjoyed.

Liu Yong didn't want to delay too much here, and instructed Wei Xu, "General Wei Xu quickly led men and horses into Qucheng, and then, took out the materials and transported them to the capital, and organized people and horses to rush to the ancient tomb immediately, and took out the remaining materials as much as possible, so that there could be no more losses." ”

"Wechen obeys." Wei Xu picked up Song Tai's head and hung it in front of the war horse.

Liu Yong looked at Yu Jiao again.

"Lord Yujiao also does not want to delay, so I will set off for Luoyang, I know that you have worked hard all the way and will encounter danger, so I want General Qi Zhen to bring two entourages with you."

Qin Zhen walked over quickly.

"I've already prepared the things I brought for you, so Lord Yujiao should be extra careful." Liu Yong admonished.

"Your Majesty, rest assured, my cousin and I haven't seen each other for many years, and I will treat it as my own family." Yu Jiao said, thinking for a while, "Your Majesty wants General Qin Zhen to follow Weichen there, who else is there to escort Your Majesty?" ”

"I have my own arrangements." Liu Yong said.

After sending off Yujiao, Liu Yong followed Wei Xu to Qucheng, and returned to Beijing with two personal guards the next day.

In the next few days, the whole city of Chengdu was busy.

Liu Yong and Empress Zhang Luo bought a dowry for Xiyue, and at the same time asked Han Wei to be responsible for receiving the materials from Qucheng and the ancient tomb, and asked Dong Qi to lead people to find a hidden place outside the city to store it.

A month later, Empress Zhang was about to give birth.

By this time, all the supplies had been basically delivered.

"Your Majesty, the imperial doctor and the midwife are already waiting in the queen's bedroom, and the queen mother has also gone to visit in person. The queen mother has not moved, and the special slave maid came to inform His Majesty and asked His Majesty to rest assured. A palace maid ran out of Jing'an Palace and said to Liu Yong, who was standing outside the gate.

In fact, according to Liu Yong's idea, he wanted to accompany Empress Zhang in person, but he was stopped by Empress Dowager Wu and the imperial doctor.

"Your Majesty is a body of ten thousand gold, how can you see such filth?" The Imperial Doctor's words obviously followed many of the rules of the ancient court.

Liu Yong had no choice but to stay outside the door alone.

At this moment, a forbidden samurai guarding the gate of the palace ran in.

"Your Majesty, Lord Yu Jiao has sent a letter."

Liu Yong was slightly surprised.

I didn't expect Yu Jiao to arrive in Luoyang so quickly, and he also sent a letter to himself. Glancing back at the gate of Jing'an Palace, where the palace maids entered and exited, Liu Yongyi waved his hand and ordered, "Quickly bring someone to my study to meet you." ”

"Yes." The samurai left.
