Chapter 319: Return to Beijing
He had mixed feelings.
Originally, he had four sons, but Murong Xiu made a big mistake, Murong Yu was a waste, and now only Murong Heng and Murong Yao, and a few princesses remain.
It is considered that the offspring is withering.
Could it be that this is God's punishment for him?
Putting his hands in his sleeves and pulling them together, he lowered his eyes slightly, turned and left.
Behind him, Murong Heng looked at his back, and there was a dark glow in his narrow eyes.
Outside the capital.
Heavy rain was pouring and the road was muddy.
Murong Yao pulled the reins and walked at the front, his eyes covered with a layer of mist, and then rolled down his long eyelashes, blocking his vision.
Fei Shao said loudly.
"Lord Wang, the rain is too heavy, and now it's night and the vision is not good, so it's not suitable for rushing at all, why don't we find a place to stay first and set off tomorrow?"
"Nope."
Murong Yao refused: "I rushed overnight, I can barely rush over tomorrow, if I delay it any longer, I will have to delay it for another day, I can't wait." ”
The queen mother was in mourning, and he, as the prince, could not rush back in time to guard the spirit, no matter what the reason, he would definitely leave a bad impression in the hearts of his father and ministers.
He had to go back.
Fei Shao wiped the rain from his face.
"But...... It's a bit slow to get there. He turned his head to look at the carriage behind him, "The carriage is slow, the two princesses are still inside, you have to pay attention to their safety, lord, your subordinates know that you are in a hurry, but this kind of weather is too dangerous." ”
"Then let them find a place to wait first, and then send someone to pick them up after the king returns to Beijing."
Fei Shao was a little surprised: "But in this remote place, isn't it a little unsafe to leave the two princesses......
"I can't take care of it anymore, so I can do it faster."
Seeing Murong Yao's determined expression, Fei Shao could only obey orders.
"Yes!"
He turned around and was about to go to the carriage to convey Murong Yao's words, when he suddenly saw an arrow flying from not far away.
Shot straight towards Murong Yao on horseback!
Murong Yao turned to one side and dodged the arrow.
Fei Shao was startled, and then drew his sword.
"There are assassins!"
The guards around the carriage also immediately drew their swords and surrounded Murong Yao's side.
The rain was pouring down, and the vision was not good.
Murong Yao pinched the sword in his hand, and there was a trace of bad premonition in his heart.
His itinerary has been kept secret, and when he came back today, he walked on a close path, how could anyone know his whereabouts and ambush him so quickly?
He didn't allow him to think too much, and suddenly rushed out of a group of people and killed Murong Yao and his party.
There was an instant mess on the field.
The horses behind him were frightened, and after a few steps forward, they slipped and suddenly flipped the entire carriage to the ground.
Lin Xiuyi crawled out of the inside in panic with both hands and feet, and when she saw the scene of the fight outside, she was immediately frightened and screamed.
"Help! Save me! ”
The screams caught the attention of the Assassins, and one of them drew his knife and slashed at her.
"Ahh
Lin Xiuyi let out a terrible scream, and at this time, a whip suddenly flashed next to her, and slammed into the assassin's body, knocking him over.
Leng Ruqing withdrew the whip and looked at Lin Xiuyi, who was in shock on the ground, and frowned.
"Get out of the way, don't get in the way here!"
As soon as he said that, he turned around and left her, and ran towards Murong Yao.
Murong Yao was being besieged by several people.
There were too many enemies, and gradually he was a little exhausted.
At this moment, a soft whip came over and relieved him.
Leng Ruqing's red clothes were drenched in the rain, but her posture was still vigorous.
She kicked over an assassin next to her and anxiously ran to Murong Yao's side.
"Murong Yao, are you okay!?"
"It's fine."
Murong Yao looked at her.
In the heavy rain, her hair was messy on her face, but her eyes were shining with deep concern when she looked at him.
Leng Ruqing walked over and stood behind him, facing his back.
"Murong Yao, I'll help you."
In the battlefield, giving your back to the other party is absolute trust.
Murong Yao lowered his eyes slightly and nodded: "Hmm." ”
After the two of them joined forces, it was much easier.
Leng Ruqing's kung fu was better than he imagined, he was vigorous and light in the rain in red, and soon repelled the trend of siege, and the two had a moment of respite.
Murong Yao turned his head to look at her.
"Your skills are beyond my expectations."
Leng Ruqing held the whip: "Your skills...... It was also beyond my expectations. ”
Murong Yao: ?
Why does this sound like an insult?
"Lord Wang."
Someone suddenly pulled his sleeve.
Murong Yao turned his head and saw Lin Xiuyi stumbling to his side, her face was very pale.
"Who are these assassins...... Lord Wang, the concubine was a little scared. ”
"I don't know who sent it, if you hide, there will be guards to protect you."
Murong Yao's voice was faint.
Lin Xiuyi, a lady who has been raised in the boudoir since childhood, is normal to be afraid, but at this moment, she has lost all her decent appearance, and she is really a little embarrassed.
Lin Xiuyi shook her head.
"Lord Wang...... The concubine wants to follow you, but the concubine is really worried about you. ”
Murong Yao's side is the place with the most guards.
It is also the safest place.
Leng Ruqing twisted her eyebrows: "Are you afraid of death and want Murong Yao to protect you?" ”
Her mind was debunked to the point, and Lin Xiuyi was a little annoyed in an instant.
"I'm really worried about the prince, but I was misinterpreted by you like this, you are simply a gentleman's belly with the heart of a villain!"
Murong Yao was a little annoyed by the noise, and was about to speak, but suddenly saw a dark arrow flying over.
"Ahh
"Be careful!"
Two voices rang out at the same time.
Before he could react, he saw a man flash in front of him, blocking him.
Leng Ruqing's body was thin, but the moment he rushed out, he was extremely firm.
Bang!
Fortunately, at the critical moment, Fei Shao stopped the sword with a sword.
He turned.
"Lord Wang, the rain is too heavy, and I can't tell how many people there are on the other side, let's withdraw first!"
"Okay, you let people take cover, and retreat immediately."
Murong Yao made a decision immediately.
Then he turned his head to look at Lin Xiuyi behind him.
"How long will you drag this king's clothes?"
His face was a little cold.
He could see it clearly.
When the cold arrow flew over, Lin Xiuyi instantly hid behind him.
It's the opposite of Leng Ruqing.
Lin Xiuyi immediately let go of his python robe with some fear.
A group of people fought while escorting Murong Yao's retreat.
The trio finally escaped.
But on the way to retreat, Murong Yao was hit by an arrow in the shoulder.
He cut off the arrows and hurried in a brisk direction to the southwest, he often came to the Jokhang Temple, so he was more familiar with the neighborhood and knew that there was a small temple here.
I hurried all the way and finally arrived at the temple.
The host of the temple also knew Murong Yao, and immediately prepared two side rooms for him, and asked people to take Murong Yao's token and go to the capital to spread the news.
Leng Ruqing kicked the door open, and then took off Murong Yao's python robe, and with a "hiss", he tore the clothes on his shoulders.
Murong Yao looked up in some shock.
"What are you doing?"
