"Xiao Langjun!"

"Chen Yushi!"

Chang Ying had already pulled out the arrows from his body at this time. For a warrior like him who has been fighting at the border all year round, being hit by arrows was a common occurrence. He was strong and tightened his shirt to stop the bleeding.

These martial arts practitioners are very rough, and Ma Lie's behavior was normal when he escaped from trouble.

"Little Prince!" Chang Ying's big hands kept squeezing the abdomen of the three of them.

"Cough cough cough~" The first one to wake up was Chen Yunsheng, who coughed up some water.

The feeling of dizziness came one after another. He was not as strong as Chang Ying. Although he woke up, he was still paralyzed on the ground.

Chang Ying was overjoyed when he saw this and hurriedly continued to squeeze the abdomens of Xiao Qi and Tang Guan.

"Cough~" The two of them coughed almost at the same time and woke up faintly.

Tang Guan was in an extremely embarrassed state at this time. He still had old injuries on his body, and his face was extremely pale due to the cold.

Over there, Ma Lie saw the three people waking up and walked over. Chang Ying stared at him nervously.

"woke up?"

Chang Ying remained silent, subconsciously protecting the three of them behind him, and his leg muscles secretly tightened.

"Hey, Chang Ying, you're still the same, you haven't made any progress at all."

Chang Ying was stunned when he heard this, stared at Ma Lie's face and said: "You have become ugly."

"Ugly? Haha" Ma Lie laughed. The two of them, one a gangster and the other an official, were chatting like old friends they hadn't seen for many years.

Tang Guan listened vaguely to the conversation between the two, and looked at Ma Lie with dull eyes.

"How...why is it you?" Tang Guan was suddenly startled at this sight, thinking that he was dazzled. Ma Lie's ferocious but familiar face appeared in front of him again, and Tang Guan couldn't help but lose consciousness.

"Do you know each other?" Chang Ying's eyelids jumped upon seeing this and he asked.

Ma Lie looked at the half-dead Tang Guan, shook his head and said: "This kid is a bit weird."

Chang Ying was even more surprised when he heard this. Remembering that Tang Guan had been imprisoned before, he immediately asked: "Aren't you in prison?"

"Prison? Haha, Chang Ying, you are getting more and more confused as you get older. People like us will either die directly or...hehe"

Having said this, Ma Lie's voice suddenly stopped and he looked at Chang Ying with a mocking look on his face.

Chang Ying frowned. When he was young, he had tried martial arts with this fierce bandit. At that time, he was also a famous warrior in Chang'an, and he had learned the authentic eagle claws. He was so proud at a young age that he was inevitably frivolous.

But when he met Ma Lie, he realized what true martial arts meant. He had only seen this terrifying man in his life. Only by listening to plays and books could he see some shadows from the deeds of the ancients.

Although Xiao Qi recovered his breathing, he was worse than Tang Guan. He only heard intermittent sounds and fell into coma again.

Tang Guan's eyes gradually lost focus. Although he had suffered a more brutal death sentence in prison, this was the first time he had drowned. It was a miracle that several people survived.

"Often... often..." Chen Yunsheng is an adult after all. He gradually woke up from his coma and said.

"Censor, my subordinates are here." Chang Ying immediately stepped forward to help Chen Yunsheng up.

Chen Yunsheng was slightly shocked when he saw Ma Lie's appearance clearly, "This... who is this strong man?"

Chang Ying didn't answer him and stared at Ma Lie.

"Old officer, your county magistrate has done quite well. Take this," Ma Lie said as he took out a document from his arms and threw it in front of Chen Yunsheng.

After saying that, he turned around and left, "When that kid wakes up, tell him that the person who saved him is named Ma Lie!"

"Ma! Ma Lie!" Upon hearing this, Chen Yunsheng opened his eyes wide and stared at Ma Lie's back, but Ma Lie walked into the dense forest without looking back.

It took Chen Yunsheng a long time to calm down, but Chang Ying didn't dare to look away when he saw Ma Lie walking away.

"Guard Chang, how could it be him?"

"I don't know." Chang Ying shook his head. He was also confused. It was really unbelievable that Ma Lie came out halfway.

"Censor, wait a moment, I'll go check." Chang Ying gently put down Chen Yunsheng, stood up and walked towards the dense forest.

As soon as they entered the forest, a pungent smell of blood rushed towards them. Even Chang Ying, who had been on the battlefield for a long time, was slightly startled and stepped forward to check.

The ground was actually covered with corpses of masked men, some even mutilated.

"Hiss~" Chang Ying took a breath of cold air. It would be unbelievable if Ma Lie killed these all by himself.

At this glance, there were at least one hundred and eighty corpses. Chang Ying picked up another powerful bow on the ground.

"Sure enough, it's the fire paint of Zhe Chong Mansion!" Chang Ying looked at this powerful bow and said to himself, sure enough, Zhe Chong Mansion is a soldier, and there are six mansions on Jiangnan Road, but I don't know which weapon this is, because the identification seal on it has been scratched

Lose.

Chang Ying put down the powerful bow in his hand, feeling horrified that someone from the imperial court intercepted him on the way. The most confusing thing was that he was rescued by the ruthless bandit Ma Lie in the end.

When he stepped out of the dense forest, he found that Chen Yunsheng was tremblingly holding the document that Ma Lie had left behind, and he was identifying each word by the light of the lake at night.

"Liu...Liu...you...you..." Chen Yunsheng looked furious at this moment, and his words were incoherent.

Chang Ying hurriedly stepped forward and asked: "Censor, what's wrong?"

"Liu Xun rebelled!"

"Ah!" Chang Ying was frightened when he heard this and hurriedly took the document from Chen Yunsheng's hand.

It turned out that this was the oath document Liu Xun wrote for Ma Lie. It clearly listed how to hire Ma Lie and what kind of rewards he would get in return. What made Chang Ying extremely angry was that one of the sentences on it actually said:

"To bring peace to the world, hoe the chicken noodles!"

"What a bold Governor Liu!" Chang Ying couldn't help but smacked his lips when he saw this. This sentence was unusually simple. It was actually quoting scriptures, saying that Tang Guan was the little face of the Queen of Heaven.

"Censor, the ship has sunk. You cannot stay here for a long time." Chang Ying put away the letter and carefully put it into Chen Yunsheng's arms.

"Where are you now?" Chen Yunsheng asked after regaining his breath.

Chang Ying looked around and said, "Jiangdu is not far away."

"Under the rule of Li Xu, King of Jiangdu?"

"Exactly"

Speaking of this, Chen Yunsheng looked at the unconscious Tang Guan and Xiao Qi.

"Chang Wei, you are in the army, do you know where Mr. Pei is camping now?"

"Xianggong Pei?" Chang Ying was stunned when he heard this, not knowing what Chen Yunsheng wanted to do.

"This is an important military matter. My subordinates are talking very softly and don't know where my husband is camping."

In fact, even if Tang Guan, who understands the history of later generations, is awake now, he will not know the specific current location of Pei Yan. After that military meeting, Pei Yan, the "unnecessary person" of the Tang Dynasty, was tampered with his due destiny, and actually personally

Come to Yangzhou to suppress Xu Jingye.

According to official history, he had already been imprisoned by this time. Later generations also had mixed reviews of him. Some said that his political thoughts were naive and he wavered, while others said that he was an honest official and cared about the people, which was rare.

loyal ministers of the country.

Corrupt officials in later generations are like ministers who have crossed the river. In Tang Guan's view, Pei Yan could reach the position of prime minister, dominate the government and the public for more than ten years, and his house was confiscated after his death, but nothing was obtained. This kind of person is definitely not a naive person. This is also a history of doubt.

But coincidentally, his appearance saved Pei Yan from prison, but Tang Guan himself was imprisoned and tortured.

Chen Yunsheng frowned when he heard this.

"King Jiangdu can't be trusted! I didn't expect that this summons would end like this!" Chen Yunsheng sighed in his heart. After Xu Jingye's rebellion, these princes of the Li family were all ready to make a move.

He was frightened by Liu Xun's daring actions. If Li Xu also had the courage to do something, with his status as a majestic prince, I am afraid that he and others would not be as lucky as they are now.

"Help me up, the Yangzhou government office must know." Chen Yunsheng struggled to get up, his eyes firmer than ever before.

He had not experienced too many storms, but he promised his old friend that he would send his two children safely to Chang'an. At this time, he did not care about the imperial deadline and insisted on finding the safest way.

He knew how much Pei Yan valued Tang Guan and would never harm Tang Guan.

When Chang Ying heard this, he couldn't help but said: "Wouldn't it be better to ask King Jiangdu for help and borrow a boat?"

After hearing this, Chen Yunsheng looked at Chang Ying and sighed in his heart: "A warrior is a warrior after all. How can things in the court be so simple?"

But he didn't say much and immediately stood up with Chang Ying's help.

Chen Yunsheng moved his body, groped for a while, took off the soaked bundle in his arms, looked at the contents inside, and breathed a sigh of relief.

“It’s not bad, it’s not bad”

Chang Ying saw this and went there to carry Tang Guan and Xiao Qi on his back. Although he was strong, he was injured and was a little weak.

Chen Yunsheng took Tang Guan from Chang Ying's arms and sighed softly: "Chang Guard, let's go to Yangzhou first. Fortunately, we still have gold and silver given by our close friends. I'll take good care of your injury on the way."

Chang Ying didn't understand what he meant. He didn't ask for help when he was nearby, but he insisted on running to the far place. Sometimes the actions of these literati were a bit unbelievable in their eyes.

"Let's go" Chen Yunsheng held Tang Guan tightly in his arms, Chang Ying carried Xiao Qi on his back, and walked out of the dense forest together...
