Chapter 399: The Beginning of the Dahua Rebellion (2)
Although he had arrived outside the Chinese army tent in the Hanzhou camp, Mei Yuanchen did not enter. Because he could feel that Xia Chenghuan's determination was not something that he could turn around in a few words. Instead of spending time here for a long time, it is better to leave early and return to Ruozhou to stop it from happening.
Out of the Hanzhou camp, the three of them turned around and walked back. The sky was dark, and the three of them held the reins in one hand and the torch in the other, and they couldn't hurry, and it was midnight when they arrived in the suburban city of Ruozhou.
At the fork in the road, Mei Yuanchen, who was walking in front, suddenly reined in the horse's reins.
"What's wrong?" Yun Xiaoyang stopped beside him and asked softly, "Is there an enemy ambush?"
As he spoke, he looked around vigilantly, as if looking for passes, low slopes, and bushes where the enemy might be lurking.
"Ahh Seeing that Yun Xiaoyang and Hate Hongchen both seemed to have misunderstood themselves, Mei Yuanchen hurriedly explained, "There are two roads here, the main road is to Ruozhou City, and the small road is to the capital. Why don't I go to Ruozhou, and you go to the capital?"
He couldn't rest assured that Xia Chengyi couldn't wait to put on his wings and fly back to the capital. However, he also knew that the poison that Dahua's famous doctors couldn't solve, and he and Yun Xiaoyang were afraid that it might not be of much use if they went back like this, and they would have to watch the beauty die of poison in front of him.
No way!
"I have to go back to Ruozhou, you... Can you...," Mei Yuanchen asked softly.
Before he finished speaking, Yun Xiaoyang interrupted him: "Well, I'm going to the capital and try to stop the spread of poisonous blood in the princess's body!"
Knowing her husband is Mo Ruo's wife, although the two have not yet married, she couldn't be clearer about what Mei Yuanchen thinks in her heart.
Without waiting for him to speak, he turned his head and said that he hated Hongchen and said, "White girl, you are still injured, so you should go to the capital with me." ”
Hate Hongchen actually didn't want to go, she promised Haitang to take care of Mei Yuanchen, he suddenly said that there was obviously a very important matter to go back to Ruozhou, and it seemed to be extremely difficult to do.
She wanted to go with him to Ruozhou, maybe she could help.
But as soon as Yun Xiaoyang opened her mouth, she was silent. Although the two don't have much friendship, they hate Hongchen and have a natural trust in her. From her, Hate Hongchen could feel obvious kindness.
The killer's perception is much sharper than that of ordinary people.
Mei Yuanchen looked at Yun Xiaoyang gratefully, and then asked Hate Hongchen sideways: "White girl, you..."
"I went to the capital with her. Hate Hongchen glanced at him coldly, and drove the horse straight towards the side road.
Yun Xiaoyang said, "Be careful in everything" and followed, and the two rode one after the other to the north.
The two points of light grew smaller and smaller, and gradually disappeared into the endless darkness.
... ...
Normally, the establishment of the yamen of the county government department is between 350 and 450, but at this time, there were four defenses inside and outside the courtyard of Renfu's mansion, and the total number of soldiers was 870. During this period, there were five hundred Qin Xiao's intention to stay behind to protect Nintendo when he left Ruozhou, and they were martial arts masters who were drawn from the Shenshao Camp, and they all had the courage to fight with one enemy and three enemies.
The night was quiet, unusually quiet.
"He Shichang, something is wrong!" In the patrol team, a young man was talking about the middle-aged soldier in front of him.
"Oh, Brother Wang, what's wrong?" the middle-aged soldier surnamed He asked, turning his head. He is a local official errand, he doesn't practice much on weekdays, his routine training is scattered, and he is already a little sleepy when he walks back and forth in the house, but he doesn't notice anything wrong. But he knew that the young men behind him were all masters in the Divine Sentinel Camp, and their eyesight and ear power were far better than ordinary people, and they could often hear the unheard and unheard.
The young man listened again, as if to confirm his judgment, and replied: "It's too quiet, I don't hear the sound of chickens and dogs, it's weird." ”
The husband outside Shicai Street has played four watches, and as usual, after listening to the sound of gongs and bangs, there will be a few dog barks in the yard along the street, but there is no one today.
He Shichang shook the saber, listened carefully, frowned and responded: "Yes, it is indeed strange, go and report to Wu Baifu!"
He was about to send someone to report to Shangguan, but he found that he could not speak, and a tooth moon dart flew quickly and plunged deep into his throat.
"There's an enemy attack!" the young man, who had noticed the strangeness at first, exclaimed sharply as he endured the sharp pain in his chest. As soon as he finished speaking, a figure rushed from the corner. These people were light and agile, and they pounced on the guards like black panthers.
There were more than 500 soldiers on duty at night in the political secretary's office, of which the outer courtyard was a sentry, with a number of about 50, and at this time all the people brought by Xu Xiaoshi had been killed. There were 200 patrol troops, with 20 people in a team and 10 teams patrolling crosswise. The remaining nearly three hundred were guarding the inner courtyard, and they were all the elite of the Divine Sentinel Battalion.
"Wang Yuan has reported the enemy training, be on alert!"
... ...
Faced with Zuo Yiqian's question, Xia Chenghuan did not answer any of them.
"His Royal Highness King Rui, I am the right general of the emperor's imperial seal, and more than 6,000 people in the army have left the camp, I must know where they are!" Xia Chenghuan was already angry with him without saying a word.
Although the other party is a prince, he is also from a famous official family, not to mention, he came to Hanzhou this time with the emperor's order, and he felt that things were not good, so he naturally lost a little respect in his words.
On this day, Xia Chenghuan successively assigned several inconsequential things to the right military camp, and Zuo Yiqian was busy until midnight. Just now the soldiers came to report, saying that they found that thousands of people in the army had left the camp overnight and did not know where to go, and he realized that it was King Rui who was supporting himself.
How could it be an ordinary thing to send one of his lieutenants out of the camp for one day, and to move an army of 6,000 men out of the camp?
Xia Chenghuan looked outside the tent, took the teapot, filled it with two cups, and said, "Yiqian, sit, you and I will talk." ”
Seeing that Zuo Yiqian's face was anxious, he didn't step forward, and said with a smile: "Yiqian, you don't need to worry. Sit down and have a cup of hot tea, and I'll tell you more. ”
After he sat down on the futon, Xia Chenghuan told him and Qin Xiaoyou what he had planned, and frankly admitted that he was ready to die to atone for his crimes.
Zuo Yiqian looked at Xia Chenghuan, his face was full of different colors, and his mouth was open enough to stuff a goose egg, but he didn't make a sound.
In his heart, he understood that Xia Chenghuan was right.
But he knows better how important Xia Chengyi is to Xia Chengxuan!
Xia Chenghuan did this almost to kill Xia Chengyi's last trace of life, and Xia Chengxuan knew that Long Yan would be furious.
Zuo Yiqian believes that the emperor who is extremely angry may not care about Xia Chenghuan's status as a prince, and maybe he will really kill him with a holy decree.
"Your Highness, there are thousands of roads, why bother to take such a dangerous path? Leave the green mountains here, not afraid of no firewood!" Zuo Yiqian persuaded softly, "It's really... You really shouldn't take such a huge risk, once you touch the dragon scales... Your Highness, think again!"
The new emperor hurriedly ascended the throne, King Duan was old, and the court was not in charge, and the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty thought that the national affairs might be delayed for several years.
Unexpectedly, the little emperor boldly used King Rui and King Xin, and under the acting management of the three people, the Dahua Dynasty not only did not fall at all, but even created a new situation and a new atmosphere, and the national strength also increased unabated.
There is no doubt that these three people are the hope of Dahua's rise! As Dahua's courtiers, Zuo Yiqian did not want Xia Chenghuan to have a quarrel with the emperor because of this matter, and then be convicted.
Xia Chenghuan smiled, shook his head and said, "If you can exchange my life for Duanmu Yu's life, how can there be any hesitation? All the blame for the guilt will be borne by the Rui Wangfu. ”
... ...
"Squeak~~~" After a muffled sound, the gate of Ruozhou City opened, and Gu Xiuping led more than 6,000 light horsemen into the city.
