It was still late at night, but it was impossible to fall asleep.
Yue Laodao said: "Princess, the puppet emperor's minions are chasing after me. It is not suitable to stay here for a long time. It is better to drive all night tonight and arrive at Yingshui County as soon as possible so that we can meet up with the reinforcements."
Princess Dongyang lowered her head and thought for a while, then suddenly asked Qin Sang: "Master Qin, according to your understanding, how many killers have Jiangshan Tower gathered in Sanwu City?"
Qin Sang said cautiously: "As far as I know, there are nearly thirty people."
Princess Dongyang nodded, "Let's count thirty killers. Mr. Qin killed two people, but only ten people showed up this time. This shows that our whereabouts have not been completely leaked. The Jiangshan Tower killers either divided their forces or were killed.
Granny Li and the others fought hard for most of them. Mr. Yue, what if we turn back to Sanwu City overnight?"
Yue Lao was shocked when he heard this, "Princess, you must not do it. The Three Witches City is already a land of tigers and wolves. King Zhenshui is very likely to defect to the false emperor. The other guards have been assassinated, and only a few of us are left. If we encounter
If we are surrounded and killed, even if we risk our lives, we still can't guarantee the safety of the princess, and we can't explain it to the prince!"
Princess Dongyang smiled slightly, "If you want to achieve great things, how can you spare your life? Even Mr. Yue dare not let me return to Sanwu City. The puppet emperor's minions will definitely not think of it. As for Zhenshui King, I don't think he may have taken refuge with the puppet.
Emperor, otherwise the false emperor would not have to resort to such shady tactics."
Before Mr. Yue could speak again, Princess Dongyang shook his head, "There is no need to persuade Mr. Yue, I have made up my mind. Commander Bai, you and Zhou Guard ride on the same horse, take the broken arm, and return to Sanwu City as quickly as possible to suppress the
There is an imperial doctor in Prince Shui's Mansion, and he might be able to cut off the limb and replant it."
Bai Jianglan quickly responded: "Yes!"
The horse was still there. The princess of Dongyang County was a woman and not weak at all. She got on the horse and kept on walking all the way. In the early morning, she saw the north gate of Sanwu City.
As expected, I didn’t meet the Jiangshan Tower killer on the way.
Like the south gate, the north gate also had a side gate open. Qin Sang was familiar with the gates and roads, and helped Princess Dongyang and others break up into pieces to sneak into the caravan. However, the injury of the water monkey was too conspicuous, so Qin Sang found a remote place outside the city.
In the yard, leaving to take care of the water monkey, Princess Dongyang and Yue Lao, Bai Jianglan went to see the King of Zhenshui.
The water monkey was exhausted and seriously injured, so he fell into a deep sleep.
Qin Sang sat in the courtyard, waiting for news from the princess, alert to the movements outside, and always ready to run away.
From the few words of Princess Dongyang and Mr. Yue, Qin Sang could probably see some clues. The pseudo-emperor they were talking about should be the current Sui Emperor [Biquge www.biqudu.xyz], and Jiangshan Tower turned out to belong to the emperor.
No wonder people dare to attack and kill the governor in the street.
It is said that King Dongyang and the current emperor were born from the same mother, and King Dongyang was the elder brother. After the death of the late emperor, it was his younger brother who came to the throne as the great treasure. It was against the ethical rules of the elder brother to submit to the prince.
There must be a lot of discord in this, but it is difficult for outsiders to know the inside story.
Nowadays, there are constant natural disasters in the Great Sui Dynasty, and countless people in the four counties of the North are rebelling. Swordsmen and soldiers are everywhere, and the chaos is chaotic.
Seeing that the Great Sui Dynasty was in turmoil, its foundation was unstable, and there were rumors among the people that the new emperor was immoral. I am afraid that the King of Dongyang also saw the opportunity and could not bear the loneliness. Princess Dongyang, Granny Li and Mr. Yue talked about Jiangshan Tower, and they always praised it.
This is clear evidence that he is a minion of the false emperor.
If King Dongyang launched a crusade against the false emperor, the first thing he would do was win over King Zhenshui.
Zhenshui County and Dongyang County are closely related to each other, with one west and one east standing in the southern Sui Dynasty. If King Zhenshui is not brought on board, King Dongyang's backyard will be unstable, so there is no need to send troops to fight against the thieves.
The princess of Dongyang County put herself in danger and came to Sanwu City alone, probably to persuade the King of Zhenshui. Unexpectedly, the news was leaked on the way, and Jiangshan Tower found out about it and ordered her to be intercepted and killed.
There are so many undercurrents surging in the Sui Dynasty today.
Qin Sang didn't know the inside story at first, and he accidentally boarded the Dongyang King's pirate ship. There was no chance of escape, but he still chose to stay.
His goal has never changed. He doesn't care at all whether the emperor of the Sui Dynasty is King Dongyang or the current emperor. What he wants is how to find a shortcut to contact the immortal master.
It is said that heroes emerge in troubled times, and following the Dongyang King in rebellion is undoubtedly a good opportunity.
Now, it depends on whether Princess Dongyang can persuade King Zhenshui.
If not, Princess Dongyang will die, and he will not stay and die. At worst, he will kill them all and flee to another country.
At noon, Qin Sang suddenly heard the sound of footsteps and ran straight to the small courtyard. He stood up alertly and listened attentively.
Someone was talking, and it didn't sound like they were tense.
Qin Sang put the King of Hell aside, and soon saw the courtyard door open inward. The first people who walked in were Bai Jianglan and an old man carrying a medicine box. Princess Dongyang walked side by side with a middle-aged man in luxurious clothes and said kindly
As he spoke, there was nothing unusual about his face.
Qin Sang breathed a sigh of relief and asked the King of Hell to come back and step forward to greet him.
The person talking to Princess Dongyang was the King of Zhenshui himself, and the person next to Bai Jianglan was the imperial doctor of the Prince of Zhenshui. After showing the water monkey the wound, the doctor stroked his long beard, examined the severed arm for a long time, and shook it.
He shook his head and said: "Reporting to the prince and princess, this broken arm is severely damaged and has no life at all. Moreover, the time interval is too long, I am afraid that it cannot be connected."
Bai Jianglan's eyes suddenly dimmed.
Princess Dongyang said: "Then please ask the imperial doctor to help Zhou Guard stop the bleeding and treat the wound to avoid endangering his life."
"As you command!"
The imperial doctor opened the medicine box and treated the wound.
King Zhenshui said from the side: "Don't worry, niece An Ning. The king's medical skills are amazing and he will be able to save this warrior's life. I have already prepared a banquet of fine wine. Why don't you follow me to the palace to have a meal and rest."
"Thank you, uncle," the princess of Dongyang County said, her voice full of tiredness, "An Ning came to see my uncle quietly, so there is no need to be too extravagant. Now that An Ning is worried, I'd like to trouble my uncle to send someone to take me back to Dongyang County.
In order to prevent my father from worrying about peace and safety, and waiting anxiously, I would be unfilial to peace."
The King of Zhenshui was so angry: "I didn't expect that a gangland killer organization would dare to cause trouble in Zhenshui County and assassinate the princess and nobles. I have ordered people to search and suppress the entire county. They will not leave any chickens or dogs behind, leaving space for my eldest brother and niece An Ning."
An explanation! Since An Ning insists on going back... Come, prepare a large ship, arrange a banquet on the ship, and then order General Zhao Xiang to dispatch his most elite soldiers to escort the princess back to Dongyang County. If the princess is young on the way,
A piece of hair, what does this king think of him?"
"yes!"
…
Qin Sang, Bai Jianglan, and Water Monkey rode in a carriage together, guarded by elite soldiers at the front and rear. When passing Cuiming Mountain, Qin Sang opened the curtain and took a look outside.
His own future was uncertain, so he did not disturb them.
We boarded the boat and sailed along the river, arriving at Chuncheng, the county seat of Dongyang County three days later.
Qin Sang followed Princess Dongyang and was closely escorted back to the palace by the palace guards. They walked around and saw the scenery all the way. They only felt that the customs and customs of Chun City were quite different from those of Sanwu City.
