There were hundreds of soldiers guarding Tuoba Mingge. Logically speaking, it would be more than enough to capture these dozen soldiers. However, before they could take action, they saw a few people entering outside.
"Brother Yuan?"
"What did you do to Brother Yuan!"
Yuan Lang's hands and feet were tied, he was unconscious, and he was held hostage by Tuoba Mingge's secret guards.
"Let the fifth prince go, otherwise Yuan Lang will only have one end!"
He pressed the knife between Yuan Lang's neck. The blade was so sharp that blood could be seen.
Yuan Lang was Jiang Zhe's right-hand man and the leader of this group of soldiers, so his life was naturally precious.
But no matter how precious it is, it is nothing compared to Tuoba Mingge, the fifth prince of Xixia.
The soldiers wanted to save people, but they couldn't hand over Tuoba Mingge.
If they handed it over, the general would definitely punish him, and if Yuan Lang came to his senses and learned that they had exchanged him for Tuoba Mingge, Yuan Lang would definitely die to apologize because of his strong temper.
Due to emotions and reasons, they could not agree to the secret guard's request.
Everyone was at a stalemate.
The wound on Yuan Lang's neck was getting bigger and bigger, and the blood dripping on the white blade looked particularly dazzling.
"If you let Brother Yuan go, we can spare your life. Otherwise, it would be easy for us to kill you."
Dayan's soldiers achieved an overwhelming victory against these secret guards. If they had not been concerned about Yuan Lang's safety, they would have taken action long ago.
Several secret guards did not speak and only communicated with their eyes.
They had already figured out the thoughts of Dayan's soldiers. The secret guards never wanted to exchange Yuan Lang for Tuoba Mingge. Yuan Lang was just a cover.
Jiang Miao, who had never appeared, suddenly came out from behind the crowd and signaled to several secret guards.
The plan succeeded.
The medicinal powder Tuoba Mingge gave her had a strong effect. She dropped the medicinal powder into the wind while everyone was not paying attention. As the wind blew over, everyone was unknowingly infected.
Dayan's soldiers fell one after another, and in the end only the few at the front were left struggling to hold on.
"You...you drugged me?"
"Lady Ginger?"
Seeing Jiang Ru coming out from behind, the soldiers didn't understand why. All this was Jiang Ru and Tuoba Mingge's conspiracy.
The people in Xixia had the antidote, so they would not be poisoned. The few people in Dayan who were awake were quickly knocked down. The secret guards found the key from the leading soldier and unlocked Tuoba Mingge. Several secret guards gathered together
Kneel on the ground.
"My subordinate arrived too late to save me. Please punish me, Master!"
"Okay, leave here early."
Although this medicinal powder has a strong effect, these people don't know when they will wake up, so it is safer to leave as soon as possible.
Jiang Ru added some medicine powder to each of them to make them comatose longer.
Tuoba Mingge looked at her with admiration, stretched out his hand to hold her, and spoke softly.
"Ru'er, I'm lucky to have you."
As a woman, Jiang Ru would not attract the attention of the soldiers. Whatever she wanted to do would be easier to achieve.
This time, thanks to her teaming up with the secret guards, he was rescued so easily.
Jiang Ru had long since lost interest in this man, but now they were on the same boat. Even if she didn't like him in her heart, she still had a gentle and carefree expression on her face.
"This is what Ru'er should do, sir, let's leave quickly."
"good."
The two people left quickly under the protection of the secret guards. Tuoba Mingge had already arranged an escape route. They changed their clothes and dressed up as an ordinary couple. They quickly escaped the eyes of Dayan and Xixia.
By the time Yuan Lang and the others woke up, it was already three days later.
Jiang Ru was cruel and cruel, and the effect of the medicine was too much, which made them sleep for three days.
When he saw the confused soldiers and the wound on his neck, Yuan Lang's face turned black.
"Jiang Ru, you are looking for death!"
He never expected that Jiang Ru would escape from his hands again, Yuan Lang gritted his teeth.
"Chase! We must catch them back!"
"yes!"
The soldiers were also frightened and allowed Jiang Ru and the others to escape. They would definitely be punished if they returned.
The King of Xixia also learned about Tuoba Mingge's escape, and his long-suffering heart finally felt relieved.
Yuxian has passed away, and he doesn't want to see anything happen to their son again.
Although Tuoba Mingge can no longer inherit the throne, he is satisfied as long as he lives.
Since Yuxian's death, the King of Xixia has lost his vitality. What's the point of leaving this throne to whom?
His beloved woman is gone, and he has no hope for life. It may be better to hand the throne to someone from Dayan than to the prince.
Naturally, he knew that the prince had been staying in a brothel these days.
The King of Xixia had already given up on this son in his heart. If Xixia really left him, it would only lead to destruction earlier.
So when the prince was fooling around and having fun without any scruples, he didn't know that his position as crown prince was already in jeopardy.
When Jiang Miao received the news that Tuoba Mingge had escaped, she had only one sentence in her heart.
Sure enough!
She had known for a long time that Tuoba Mingge would not give up so easily, and Jiang Ru was also a somewhat capable person. If the two of them left, they might come back again in the future.
It's just that Xixia has been conquered by Dayan, and she and Shen Yanqing also have their own power, so they are not afraid of them.
However, she will not take the hidden dangers lightly.
"Where did they flee to?"
Both Xixia and Dayan have their people, and there are only a dozen secret guards around the two of them. If they are caught, there will be no way to survive. Jiang Miao feels that they will not stay in Xixia.
"Yuan Lang led his men to chase them. He saw them going out to sea in a boat. They had been gone for three days and I was afraid they wouldn't be able to catch up."
Yuan Lang and others are all northern men with poor water skills. In addition, they are not familiar with sea routes. It will only be more dangerous to rush to sea to search.
"Going to sea?"
Jiang Miao murmured, I'm afraid these two people had been planning for a long time, otherwise they wouldn't have left so smoothly.
She still underestimated Tuoba Mingge.
But it's normal to think about it. After all, he is a character who can compete with Shen Yanqing in the original book, so he will not leave himself a way out.
However, he escaped overseas and Jiang Miao had a way to catch him.
The maritime trade matter discussed with Zhao Jing has now been initially implemented.
With the help of Zhao Jing and Shen Yanqing, Jiang Miao formed a maritime caravan, led by Xu Ziwen.
Yes, Xu Ziwen finally resigned from the Hanlin Academy. With his talents, it was simply difficult for him to be an editor in the Hanlin Academy.
Those days are boring and meaningless.
He prefers doing business to being an academic.
Zhao Jing was still pursuing Xu Zilan, and he responded to the request of this prospective brother-in-law. Before Xu Ziwen's request came to his door, he took the initiative to give in to her, and after discussing with Jiang Miao, he inserted her into the caravan at sea.
Xu Ziwen is as happy as a fool these days. Although he has reached adulthood, his character has not yet been determined, and Xu's father and mother are worried.
