Ge Lian was crawling on the yellow sand, she had to crawl very fast to meet Uncle Fushui's guard of honor, and she couldn't hurt her face. This face had to be stained with tears, but it couldn't look dirty. Lift her face up You must be lovely and pitiful when you are young, but you can't let the snot get on the nobleman's hands.
Jing Hengbo asked her to act well, so she must act well. At this time, she cannot fight against Jing Hengbo. It is related to whether Jing Hengbo can succeed, and also whether she can be rescued. As long as she can be rescued first, there will be opportunities to take revenge on the group of torturers behind her. people.
Jing Hengbo watched from behind with a smile, and she was not worried that Ge Lian would not perform well. It was easier to cooperate with a smart villain than a stupid good person, because a smart villain knew what to do when and what to do, so don't show off for a while. .
The woman's sad cry for help was carried far away on the dirt road in the early morning. It was faint and thin, and it sounded a bit soul-stirring.
Jing Hengbo and his group rode their horses and slowly outflanked them, with grim smiles on their faces, Seven Kills played particularly actively, and said with a strange smile: "Run! Run! This is already in the Floating Water King City, where else can you run? "
In the thin morning mist, a carriage came quietly, the curtains of the carriage shook slightly, and there were vaguely curious eyes.
Tian Qi saw that the convoy was approaching, galloped his horse for two steps, picked up Ge Lian's chin flexibly with his long whip, turned her face to the direction of the carriage, and said with a smile: "Your Highness, This is the end of the matter, why bother to struggle in vain, please return home with me as soon as possible!"
With a quick roll of the whip in his hand, he strangled Ge Lian's neck, and Ge Lian raised his face, showing a bit of pitiful pain that was just right. His face was pale in the morning mist, like a pear blossom pierced by frost.
Suddenly someone said: "Wait a minute."
What he was waiting for was this sentence, but Tianqi didn't stop, turned his head to the carriage and said with a smile: "Here, we are performing our own state affairs and official duties, allowing you to watch this for a long time is regarded as respect for your floating landlord, As for other words, it is better to say a few words."
The person in the carriage let out a "hehe" and said with a smile: "I heard that sound, Your Highness Princess, and I was very curious. How did the majestic princess end up here?"
"Of course there is a way to kill," Pei Shu said coldly, "seeking power to usurp the throne, killing ministers indiscriminately, causing chaos in the capital, and plotting to assassinate the king. Such crimes must be floating around, and there is no room for one more day of life."
The voices of the people in the carriage were a little more surprised, "Really? How can such a delicate woman stir up the situation in a country?"
Tianqi and the others all smiled mysteriously and said nothing, with an expression on their faces that this is a secret of our country that cannot be revealed. The man waited, as if finally unable to hold back his curiosity, and said: "I heard that the princess of the Luoyun tribe rebelled and sneaked into our country. The national border is being chased by the Luoyun elite army, and the customs clearance document has been issued to our king, could it be this one in front of you?"
"Since you know, I think you must be an important minister." Tianqi raised his eyebrows and smiled, "If that's the case, there's no need to hide it from you." He took out the series of prepared documents and seals from his pocket, and said, "We'll wait If you have captured the first rebellious traitor, you should go back to the country. However, since you have chased all the way to Fushui Capital, you have to file a case with the capital governor and get back to the country to clear the way. If possible, I also hope to see the king, the king of our country A secret letter ordered me to send it to you. Now that I meet your lord on the road, I don’t know what your lord’s job is, and whether you can report it on your behalf.”
The curtain of the carriage moved, and a servant came over to pick up the documents. After a while, the person in the carriage smiled and said, "It turns out that it is the elite army of the Luoyun royal family, so this is the one who, as a woman, killed all the officials and invaded the capital to seize the throne." Princess Ge Lian!"
After talking, he got out of the car, but he was quite a man, in his thirties, with a handsome face, probably due to his emphasis on health preservation, the skin on his face was crystal clear and radiant, which made people fall in love with him at first sight.
After he got out of the car, he took a first look at the main road. At this time, the city gate had to be opened for nearly an hour, so the road was naturally empty without a single person.
Jing Hengbo deliberately chose a corner of the road to avoid being seen from a distance.
That romantic figure saw no one around at a glance, his eyes flashed, and then he glanced over Jing Hengbo and the others, looked carefully, and then smiled at Tian Qi who was deliberately standing in the leading position: "This must be the Falling Cloud Master."
Tianqi smiled coyly: "Don't dare, dare not. May I ask you are..."
Ever since Tianqi was with Jing Hengbo, he had no self-restraint on gender dislocation, and he often came into contact with Jing Hengbo's women's mall. Jing Hengbo specially asked him to take the lead this time, because she had heard that eunuchs used to manage the master guards in the palace, and many of the king's personal eunuchs were also masters, and they often carried out secret tasks involving the royal family on behalf of the king. Now that Tianqi is soft-spoken and half-male, half-female, it fits their fabricated identities. Sure enough, the uncle of the country naturally thinks that Tianqi is the leading eunuch.
"I am Cao Zhi, Marquis of Fushui Shunping, and I am serving as Minister of Rites. If you want to meet the king, it is within my authority." Cao Zhi smiled very amiably, but his eyes kept slipping on Ge Lian, Ge Lian But she didn't meet his gaze, she lowered her head slightly, half of her face was beautifully contoured in the disheveled long hair, but her eyes were stubborn.
Tian Qi smiled happily, and immediately stepped forward to chat with each other, but he didn't introduce anyone else. Jing Hengbo and others also looked like clay sculptures and wood carvings, standing aside silently. In the eyes of royal relatives like Cao Zhi, this behavior naturally has a reasonable explanation. All through the ages, the masters of the royal family are only loyal to the royal families of various countries, and the rules are strict. It is normal for them not to hang out with officials from other countries.
After saying a few words, Cao Zhi asked Tianqi intentionally or unintentionally, how many people were in the hunting team that entered Fushui, and if all of them were here. Hearing Tianqi say that everyone is here, a look of satisfaction flashed across his eyes.
When Jing Hengbo saw this expression, he knew that the fish had taken the bait.
I heard that this uncle, relying on his sister's favor, has always been very courageous.
Sure enough, he couldn't say a few words. Tianqi said that he would take Ge Lian into the city, find a place to imprison him, and then go to see the king. Cao Zhi agreed, but he didn't take them into the city immediately. Drinking tea and enjoying the spring in the other courtyard.
"Everyone has traveled a long distance, worked hard all the way, covered with dust, just wash well in the clear spring of Lushan Mountain, recuperate physically and mentally, and see my lord with a fresh face." Cao Zhi's expression was very sincere, and he quietly told Tian Qi and the others that the king is a very powerful person. People who are obsessed with cleanliness hate dirty clothes the most.
Jing Hengbo secretly sneered, this is going to kill people, no one saw Cao Zhi was with this group of people at the moment, took them to his own courtyard, and settled them on the spot in the deep mountains. He has something in his pocket, as long as he hides it well, who in this world knows that such a group of people have appeared before?
According to her instructions in advance, Tianqi declined Cao Zhi's invitation to rest in the other courtyard, and only said that there was a time limit for hunting Ge Lian, and there was no delay, and he had to go to the city immediately, and return to Luoyun after seeing the king.
Cao Zhi's expression was obviously a little hesitant. Once he entered the royal city, there would be too many people. If he killed such a group of people for a woman at that time, he would inevitably fall into the eyes of those who cared. rise.
After much deliberation, he felt it wasn't worth it, and was about to give up when Ge Lian winked at him quietly.
At this time, Tianqi was chasing and killing all the way with a tired face, and killed all the guards around Ge Lian. His own people were also exhausted, and some people were still injured, so he asked Lord Hou to help him.
When Cao Zhi heard this, he was overjoyed, and hurriedly ordered people to clean up three carts. When he went out of the city to go to Lushan for health preservation, he would always bring the cart with a bucket in it. When he returned to the city, he would bring water from a famous spring in Lushan for special use For daily drinking, at this time, he ordered his subordinates to move the barrel out, and let Tianqi and his group get into the car to rest.
Once a person gets into the car, he is not afraid of being seen. Cao Zhi was overjoyed, and invited Tianqi to sit in the car with him, and they went back to the city. Tianqi glanced at Jing Hengbo apologetically, feeling sorry for her needing to squeeze into a cart with a group of stinky men. Jing Hengbo smiled and winked at him, and got into the car first, Pei Shu and Yi Qi, one on the left and one on the right, had already grabbed the seats beside her.
On the return journey of the convoy, the gatekeepers who had just opened the gate were naturally a little surprised. The guards of the Hou Mansion stepped forward and explained that Lord Hou suddenly felt unwell, and that he would go up the mountain another day. The soldiers opened the gate immediately without asking any more questions.
The moment the city gate rumbled open, Jing Hengbo lifted the curtain of the cart, looked at the smoky loess on the way, and smiled slightly.
Sooner or later, the dust that hits the face will roll over the high walls and thick gates, and cross the jade steps and Danqi, stained with blood for a day, and bury the golden palace and the royal city.
…
The gates of Fushui were strictly guarded. When Cao Zhi re-entered the city, the guards did not simply open the gates because it was almost time to open the city. Jing Hengbo noticed that the number of patrol soldiers at the top of the city was more than double that of ordinary royal cities.
After the convoy entered the city, it did not stop again, nor did it open the door.
Cao Zhi's guards guarded the three cars firmly, and they didn't even allow anyone to open the curtains. It was still early in the day, and the market was not yet open. There were only a few passers-by walking on the street. When they saw the Hou's convoy, they all avoided it. , and no one cares.
The capital city in the early morning is very quiet, but every time you pass by the main road, you can always see patrolling soldiers hurrying and looking tense. The whole city seems to be shrouded in a cold and tense atmosphere.
She glanced at Dong Chi who was sitting opposite her, and he nodded slightly to her.
Jing Hengbo noticed that the convoy might have taken a detour, crossing streets and alleys all the way, making seven turns and eight turns. It is impossible for the Hou Mansion to live in back alleys. Obviously, Cao Zhi ordered to take a small path with few people to avoid being seen as much as possible.
The more he hides his team, the stronger his desire to kill everyone.
Sure enough, he was very interested in Ge Lian, so he did not hesitate to completely drown Jing Hengbo's team in the floating water.
Jing Hengbo smiled lightly.
The car finally entered Cao's mansion and stopped at the gate of the mansion. When everyone got out of the car, Jing Hengbo noticed that there were people guarding both sides of the alley of the mansion, blocking all possible sights to Cao's mansion.
Cao Zhi ordered the housekeeper to arrange a yard for them, and said that he would go to the Secretary of Rites to report the matter, and if possible, he would report to the king, and asked the guests to rest on their own, and hurried out.
He runs very fast, and when he kills, he always avoids suspicion.
Jing Hengbo listened to the wind outside the yard, sneered, and asked Tianqi: "How is it? Did you hear anything from him?"
"No," Tian Qi pointed at the orchid, "I found out that the Tianluo Army's garrison is in the West Inner Palace of the Royal City, but after the Tianluo Army completes the mission, there will be a set of procedures of its own. Li Lele, the chief **** in the palace, will handle it. The Tianluo army does not keep any outsiders in the garrison, so if you want to know their news, you have to enter the palace."
"Is it possible to catch someone and kill him immediately?" Jing Hengbo asked with some difficulty.
"Tianluo army either kills people on the spot, or takes them away if there is a reason not to kill them. Usually, they will be dealt with by Li Lele after returning to Wangcheng, or by King Fushui himself."
Jing Hengbo spread out the white paper, and invited Dong Chi and Concubine Yun to come over, and marked the important routes inside and outside the Fushui King City, the residences of important officials, the location of the palace, key points in various places, and the intricate relationship between the ministers.
This matter has already been studied on the way. Dong Chi and Concubine Yun have been away from Fushui for four years, and the information they have is naturally not very accurate. Concubine Yun said that the ups and downs of personnel in the palace are faster, and people's hearts are unreliable. Where is the loyal maid now? I can only wait and see after entering the palace.
But Dong Chi still has a group of loyal subordinates. After his accident, these people left the royal city. After Dong Chi entered the floating water, he left marks along the way. On the way, these people were gradually recruited. Immediately, Jing Hengbo assigned tasks to them. These people are now in the royal city.
If I didn't guess wrong, the weird atmosphere in Floating Water King City is also related to these people. According to her request, Dong Chi gave them an order, no matter what method is used, to create a disturbance in Wangcheng, only if there is chaos, Jing Hengbo can start the follow-up plan, and it is possible to fish in troubled waters.
However, Jing Hengbo also had some doubts in his heart. She had seen Dongchi's old subordinates, and they were indeed loyal and tough men, but their force might not be much higher, and the number of people could not be counted too much. They are very excluded, and naturally they do not have many subordinates. With such a small group of people, it is no problem to protect one or two people. It seems that it is still a little short of time to create an atmosphere where everyone is in danger in this royal city.
These people haven't even figured out the exact location of the Tianluo Army. Can they really make the Fushuiwangcheng so tense and vigilant?
Is there something going on in Floating Water King City?
Jing Hengbo looked at the sky, it was still early, so he simply ordered everyone to sleep, Cao Zhi would not do it now, it is usually convenient to do things like killing people at night.
It just so happened that she also planned to work at night.
The moon is dark and the wind is high, the sky of murder and arson.
