The sky gradually darkened, but it was said that after Lin Feng returned to Tengcheng, he did not enter the city immediately, but tied his horse to a nearby forest.
Lin Feng is a master-level figure in terms of assassination. If he dares to say that he is second, I am afraid that no one in the Dafeng Dynasty dares to say that he is first. Lin Feng is very able to keep his composure. He knows when is the right time during a banquet.
The best time to take action. At this time, the banquet has just begun, and the energy inside and outside the yamen is high. Even if you can succeed, you will face a lot of troubles.
Lanterns were hung on the baskets at the city gate, and Lin Feng waited until after the second watch before setting off to climb over the city wall.
In small Tengcheng, no one walks on the streets at night. The noise in the county government compound can be heard in almost half of Tengcheng. Lin Feng followed the path to the county government office, and the entire county government office was immersed in the noise.
Amidst the frolicking, these soldiers from the camp on the outskirts of Beijing finally followed the second stall of the Crown Prince Palace to blackmail them, but they were caught. After eating here, many officials also followed the wealthy businessmen in the city.
When a wealthy family goes to their home, it is indispensable to make offerings.
This group of people don't dare to show off in big cities, and they can only be arrogant in a small place like Tengcheng. Furthermore, ordinary officials and leaders don't dare to do this. Feng Si is a gangster and the like.
Once you gain power, if you don't collect some people's wealth, you might as well hang out in the world.
The county government compound was filled with tables and chairs, and Feng Si sat at the same table with the county magistrate and several well-known wealthy businessmen in the city. The county magistrate had a bitter look on his face, and the smile he forced out was uglier than crying. This banquet alone was enough.
He was so frustrated that he borrowed many cattle and sheep from people's homes, and he didn't know how to pay them back in the future.
After three rounds of wine and five delicious dishes, Feng Si picked his teeth and looked at everyone with satisfaction. He felt that by entertaining these gangsters, he was able to bring glory to Crown Prince Xuanle. Otherwise, when he returned to the capital, he would say that the crown prince had mobilized troops.
It would be embarrassing to not even have a full meal.
The banquet lasted until midnight, when Feng Sicai, with the support of everyone, walked to the upper room in the backyard. The unlucky county magistrate had already vacated his bedroom, so that it could be used by the grand master of the Crown Prince's Palace.
Feng Si staggered into the bedroom. Ever since Xuan Le became the crown prince, Xiyuan also followed suit and ascended to heaven. Nowadays, many officials in the capital walked around with their heads lowered when they saw Xiyuan. Once upon a time, they
No one in the world can expect such treatment.
Feng Si came to the bedside humming a little tune, and just opened the curtain. Suddenly, Feng Si's eyes blurred, and a dark shadow came over him under the candlelight.
Feng Si had been fighting in the arena for many years, and knowing something was wrong, he leaned back, raised his foot and kicked him out.
"Come on~!"
Feng Si was about to shout "Come here", but he only shouted the word "come", and a cold thin sword pierced his throat. Feng Si's eyes were wide open, he couldn't believe what the other party was doing.
The sword was so fast. Lin Feng held the hilt of the sword with his right hand and shook it slightly. Feng Si covered his bleeding neck and fell down with his eyes wide open.
Lin Feng heard the noise outside, jumped up to the beam, and jumped out from the roof. Lin Feng killed Feng Si without knowing it. Everyone in the county government thought that Master Feng had fallen asleep, but no one
I knew that the second stall owner of the Crown Prince Xiyuan had already met the King of Hell.
Lin Feng went out of the city to find his horse. It was almost five o'clock at this time. Lin Feng took a short rest and started chasing Zhu Tianjiang and others along the road.
But he said that Zhu Daguan was traveling non-stop and even had dinner in the car. If Zhu Tianjiang and others took the trail, they could bypass the boundary of Chongqing City and go directly south. However, in order to fear that Lin Feng would miss the direction, Zhu Tianjiang ordered Zhu Tianjiang to
2. Walk directly along the main road. Zhu Daguan feels that he has been out of Kyoto for eight or nine days, and no one around him should have any more ideas about him. According to the normal date, he should have passed Pengcheng Mansion by now. Don’t you know that Zhu Tianjiang
But he underestimated the persistence of the capital government office.
On the pipeline going south from Yudu, there were not only checkpoints set up by officers and soldiers, but also three checkpoints in a row. Rather than trying to intercept the imperial convict Zhu Tianjiang, they wanted to make some windfall. Any passing merchants even
Even if you don't enter the city, you have to leave something valuable behind. In this way, Yudu's garrison troops worked tirelessly to guard the pipeline day and night.
There were no lights on the temporary checkpoints, only roadblocks. In the darkness, Zhu Er and others could not see clearly. By the time Zhu Er discovered that there were roadblocks in front of them, it was already too late to turn around.
"Who are you, stop~ We are not bandits, we are officers and soldiers of the Chongqing City Guard Battalion. Get out of the car and undergo inspection~~!" A guard shouted at the advancing vehicle.
Zhu Er's heart tightened, "Everyone, be careful. If it doesn't work, just rush over."
Zhu Tianjiang was also stunned. He didn't expect that someone would set up a card in the middle of the night. Zhu Tianjiang raised the curtain of the car and looked forward, and found that it was dark, and he couldn't see how many soldiers and horses there were.
At this time, Zhu Er heard someone in front of him curse and say something. Several sleeping soldiers lit torches and walked over. With the help of the firelight, Zhu Er found that there were not many people on the other side. When he looked up, there were only a dozen or so.
Personally, Zhu Er was relieved at this moment.
"Sir, don't worry, it's just a dozen thieves." Zhu Er whispered to the car.
"Zhu Er, don't do it if you can. Give them some money to send them away." Zhu Tianjiang didn't want to do anything. After all, this is the territory of Chongqing. Even if these guys are killed, the officers and soldiers in the city will probably be alarmed.
Zhu Er rode over and hugged the two soldiers who were approaching him. "Two military masters, my young master and young lady have to go back to their hometown in Pengcheng in an emergency. I hope you can be accommodating."
"Tch, what you say is nice, if the imperial court is a prisoner, can you bear the responsibility?" A soldier said disgracefully.
Another one looked at Zhu Er with a smile and said, "I say, it's not impossible to be accommodating. There's no emergency or anything, but we brothers are starving and freezing here in the middle of the night. In general,
Say something."
Zhu Er sneered in his heart, thinking that if the adults hadn't wanted to cause trouble, none of you boys would have survived. Zhu Eryi stretched out his hand, took out ten taels of silver ingots from his arms and threw them over.
"In this case, why not quickly remove the roadblocks."
The man who gave the money was the uncle. When the two soldiers saw each other holding out their hands for ten taels of silver, smiles suddenly appeared on their faces. You must know that their monthly military pay was only three taels of silver. The merchants they had extorted in the past few days were nothing more than three taels of silver.
It was to buy some tea, food, etc., but no one had ever spent so much money.
"Okay, let's move away now."
One guy said, and quickly ran over to move the roadblock. Other soldiers also gathered around, and their eyes turned green when they looked at the silver in the soldier's hand. These guys set up roadblocks just to get money. As for the real purpose of getting money,
They wouldn't care if there were no imperial prisoners. Besides, the person they wanted to arrest was the legendary Zhu Tianjiang, so he might even risk his life.
As soon as Zhu Er saw the roadblock moved away, he quickly gave a wink to the brother who was driving the carriage, and the two carriages drove past one after the other.
General Zhu Tian and the Seventh Princess secretly breathed a sigh of relief. General Zhu Tian smiled and said, "See, these are the officers and soldiers of the Dafeng Dynasty. If we expect them to protect their family and country, it is better to keep two dogs to be loyal."
"Huh, what a bunch of hateful slaves, don't you think Chongqing is on guard?" the seventh princess said angrily. Even though they passed the level smoothly, as a princess, Xiao Qi felt that Dafeng Dynasty had such soldiers and horses.
Shameful.
"Xiao Qi, you have never left the capital, so you don't know the sufferings below. In fact, except for the capital, the capitals below are all the same. No one will really work for the royal family."
"Heaven descends, doesn't Father know about it?"
"No, Emperor Chengwu knew it very well, but he had no way to manage these things. The institutions in the court were complicated. Once the 10,000 taels of disaster relief funds arrived, it would be good to have one-tenth left. It can only be said that those ministers
inability."
The seventh princess sighed secretly. In the past few days out of the capital, she had learned a lot of things that she didn't know in the palace. The previous idea that the country was peaceful and the people were peaceful and people were kind, was completely broken in the seventh princess's heart.
With the experience of this pass, Zhu Er easily passed the second pass. But at the third pass, Zhu Er ran into trouble.
The third level is set in the south of Yudu. The number of people is about the same as the first two. However, this level has an additional patrol officer.
"Who is it, stop the car!"
With a shout, more than a dozen soldiers stood in front of the roadblock. With officials present, these soldiers did not dare to be lazy.
Zhu Er walked over without caring, "Master, please do me a favor. My young master is in a hurry to go back to his hometown in Pengcheng." Zhu Er said, taking the Nang from the horse as he did the previous two times.
He took out a piece of silver and threw it over.
Zhu Er was also too confident. If he had dismounted and handed it over politely, it would have been fine. But after throwing it away like this, Na Biaotong felt that the other person was like a beggar giving alms, and his face was very shameless.
"Asshole, I won't accept this trick. I'll dismount and check to see if there are any imperial prisoners." Na Biao waved his hands in unison, and several soldiers ran over.
Zhu Er was startled, thinking that something bad was going to happen, and quickly winked at the brothers. Zhu Erxin said that you are seeking death on your own, so you can't blame me.
When Na Biaotong saw Zhu Er and the others still riding on their horses, he immediately became alert.
"Whoever you are, get rid of me." Biao Tong pointed his spear at Zhu Er and said warily.
"Who are we? Hum hum, we are the murderous King of Hell!" Zhu Er said, clamped his legs together, and rode his horse to kill us.
As soon as Zhu Er took action, the brothers beside the car quickly drew their weapons and rushed towards the soldiers in front like hungry wolves.
These soldiers are usually soft and bully, but they have never seen such a master who is desperate for his life. They screamed and screamed, and as long as they could still move, they ran away.
The unlucky Biao Tong was killed by Zhu Er when they met each other. If these guys fought head-on, Zhu Er would be happy. But if they run away like this, they won't be able to chase anyone. The people around them are all in the dark, even more so.
Inconvenient to find.
"Brothers, move the roadblock, quickly!" Zhu Er knew that this place was too close to Yudu City and could not waste time.
As soon as the roadblock was removed, the two carriages rushed over quickly. Zhu Tianjiang hugged the trembling seventh princess and gave her the greatest comfort.
"Xiao Qi, don't be afraid. If you encounter another scene of fighting or killing, just close your eyes and don't look at it." Zhu Tianjiang stroked the hair of the seventh princess and said softly.
"Tian Jiang, will they come after me?" The seventh princess looked at Zhu Tian Jiang worriedly.
Zhu Tianjiang shook his head. He himself didn't know if anyone would catch up.
The two horses were racing fast on the official road. Killing a Biaotong was no small matter. Zhu Er had no choice but to leave the boundaries of Yudu as soon as possible.
Seeing that the sky was dimming and dawning, Zhu Tianjiang, who had been running around all night, was also a little tired from the bumps, so he quickly asked Zhu Er to stop the car and take a rest. He was afraid that the Seventh Princess would not be able to bear the bumps and fall ill again after she had just recovered.
That would be troublesome on the road.
Everyone rested for less than a stick of incense. Before Zhu Tianjiang got on the car, they saw a team of two to three hundred people appear behind them.
"Sir, no, it looks like they are the garrison troops of Chongqing City." Zhu Er's heart tightened and he quickly urged to get in the car.
In this situation, they had no place to hide other than running. Fortunately, Zhu Tianjiang's car had been modified by him, and it was not too slow when pulled by two horses. But the carriage loaded with items
, but it affects the speed.
"Quickly, abandon that carriage." Zhu Tianjiang saw this situation and gave the order decisively.
Everyone protected Zhu Tian's cart and ran all the way. However, the cart and horse were always no match for a single rider, and the distance between the two sides became closer and closer.
At this moment, Zhu Er looked up and found that a team had appeared in front of him. Although the number of people was not very large according to visual inspection, only a few dozen people, but they were so blocked one after another that it would be difficult for them to fly even if they had wings.
