Every time the Jingjie Drum sounds, the bustling Chang'an Street immediately becomes empty as if by magic.
Driven by the urging drums, the people of Chang'an always hurried back to their homes, closing the doors tightly for fear of being caught by the patrolling Lord Wu, not to mention being whipped for no reason.
, and even be sent to jail to eat a few meals.
Of course, not everything in this world is absolute.
In such a big city, with a population of hundreds of thousands, there will always be a few drunkards every now and then for various strange reasons, and idlers are still wandering in the streets after the drum beats.
And every time this time comes, it is the happiest time for Wuhou to patrol the streets. The long nights that he would otherwise have no intention of sleeping will be filled with joy because of the presence of these people.
"Kudeng, kudeng..."
Today, as Wu Hou Lin San just yawned and turned around from the alley, he heard the rapid sound of horse hoofs behind him. He was so startled that he turned around in confusion and looked into the darkness behind him.
"Is it possible that there is urgent military information sent at this late hour?"
The night sky above our heads tonight is a bit gloomy. Under the cover of dark clouds, there is not even a star, let alone the moon. So no matter how hard Lin San opened his eyes, he could not see the source of the sound clearly, and could only secretly guess in his heart.
The identity of this Malay.
"I heard that for some reason this afternoon, people from Sima from Wucheng, as well as government officials from Chang'an and Wannian counties were dispatched. I don't know if it may be related to this matter."
Lin San was still thinking about it, but the sounds in the distance were getting closer and closer. When the carriage passed by a lantern hanging high in front of a shop, Lin San heard the faint flash of light.
Only then can the general appearance of the other party be clearly seen.
Not the messenger!
Because the courier's attire is easy to identify, and the courier does not deliver messages in a carriage, unless his legs are too weak to ride a horse for the rest of his life!
Not from a powerful family!
Because even though it was just a glimpse, for the discerning Wuhou, they had already recognized that although this carriage produced by the Xiao family was new, it was just an ordinary model.
And the most important thing is: there is no sign of any big family hanging on this carriage, it is definitely not those powerful enough to ignore the ban!
Since they are neither of these two types of people.
That guy dared to ride his horse around Chang'an in the middle of the night. This was a problem. He was clearly not paying attention to the ban and was not giving face to these Wuhou who were patrolling the city!
Thinking of this, Lin San couldn't help but smile grimly, and swayed in the middle of the road, preparing to stop this daring person, and then call his brothers to join him, so as to "serve" him!
"Stop anyone who comes!"
"roll!"
Seeing the carriage in the darkness getting closer and closer, Lin San crossed his arms, took a deep breath, and just shouted out! Unexpectedly, the young man driving the carriage was even more arrogant than him!
He scolded him angrily without saying a word, and even whipped him and whipped him aside!
Judging from the strength of this whip, if he hadn't been wearing thick clothes in the winter, this whip would have been enough to tear his flesh apart!
However, even though he wore enough clothes and had leather armor for self-defense, the place where Lin San was whipped was still burning with pain! The pain made him grimace, and it took him a long time to get up from the ground.
"What a boy! How dare you break through and escape! Today I'm catching you, but you don't know how many eyes Lord Ma has!"
Touching the leather armor that had almost been pulled away, Lin San looked at the direction of the carriage with a ferocious expression. Without thinking, he pulled out the copper whistle hanging from his neck and blew it hard!
"Chirp chirp..."
A sharp whistle sounded! It was particularly clear in the cold night sky! Along with this whistle, there were soon one long and two short whistles in the surrounding area in response!
"Chirp chirp..."
The rapid and long whistle blew from Lin San's mouth again, and now the surrounding Wuhou understood that one of his companions had encountered a bad person!
Good guy, how long have they been hanging around in Chang'an City? This is really the first time they have encountered such a thing. I didn't say anything, they were shoulder to shoulder, copying guys!
So, soon, shopkeeper Liu in the car found that a large group of Wuhou patrolling the streets were chasing him from a distance behind his car, and he was shouting for them to stop!
"Shopkeeper, something is wrong. What should I do now?"
The driver driver's expression changed as he felt that he had accidentally stung a hornet's nest!
That whip just now was whipped by the shopkeeper behind him! How could he have thought that he was just following orders and showing mercy, but he still got into trouble?
"Don't worry about them! Keep walking!" Behind him, Shopkeeper Liu in the carriage felt the horse speed under him slow down, frowned, and shouted again!
He was anxious to return to the palace to see the emperor this time, so naturally he didn't take these mere Wuhou to heart!
Moreover, otherwise the palace stipulated that after cleaning the street, one must make a hanging basket from the Zhuque Gate to enter, so he wouldn't have to go through so much trouble and make a big circle to reach Zhuque Street.
"Okay! Shopkeeper, sit still!"
After receiving the shopkeeper's reply, the driver was obviously relieved. He whipped his whip again and drove the fast horse in front towards Zhuque Gate.
"stop……"
"Don't run!"
Behind the carriage, the people standing in the distance were left far behind, and even their shadows were almost difficult to see clearly.
There is no way, how can a two-legged man outrun a four-legged horse?
So soon, those Wuhou without horses could only watch the carriage disappear from their sight.
"Run, I can't run anymore..." Lin San, who was out of breath from running, leaned on his knees and panted heavily from exhaustion.
"Don't be discouraged, the city gates are closed now, they can't escape!" Another Wuhou also opened his mouth and replied in a huff!
"Stop! Huh? They stopped!"
Just when the chasing Wuhou stopped one after another and gasped for air, the Wuhou in front of him who had the best eyes suddenly jumped up, pointed to the front and said: "They seem to have stopped!"
"Stopped? Where did it stop!" Lin San heard this and asked eagerly.
When the man heard this, he stood on tiptoe and looked forward again. After a while, he said uncertainly: "It seems to have stopped at the entrance of the palace!"
"Stop at the palace gate?" Hearing where the carriage was parked, other Wuhou also became quiet. You glared at me, I stared at you. No one could guess why it stopped at the palace gate.
"Could it be an assassin?"
A bold idea suddenly emerged from the bottom of his heart. Lin San trembled all over and felt that the blood on his body was a little cold! He quickly cheered up and ran towards the palace gate!
"Brothers, we are here to help you!"
When he could see the palace gate shrouded in darkness from a distance, Lin Sanyi gritted his teeth and stamped his feet. For the sake of credit, he worked hard this time!
