People's physical strength is limited. Qin Jiyan leading two people was not only slow, but also very energy-consuming. After only two hours of walking, Qin Jiyan's body was covered with sweat.
You know, this was something that was completely impossible before.
"Should we find a place to take a rest?" Gu Qiancheng asked worriedly. Qin Jiyan shook his head, "The pursuers are coming soon. We must throw Governor Yang into the Ice City as soon as possible and then leave here."
As if to prove that what Qin Jiyan said was correct, as soon as Qin Ji finished speaking, a strong wind roared behind him. The sound of the wind was definitely not natural, but man-made. From the sound of the wind, it could be inferred that there were not only many people coming, but also people.
The speed of moving forward is still very fast.
Qin Jiyan paused and looked back at Gu Qiancheng, "It seems we can't get out now, so we can only go to Ice City to avoid the danger first."
This is the main battlefield of Xihu. Xihu can easily throw out thousands of people at close range. It is not easy for Qin Jiyan and Gu Qiancheng to escape. They still have a long way to go out of Xihu.
There is a way to go, and facing it head on is definitely a mistake.
At the same time, the men who captured Jing Yan also discovered traces of Jing Yan, "General Feng, we discovered the whereabouts of the eldest grandson of the Emperor of Qin. He is hiding in a private house on Anlan Street."
Every time he heard the words "the eldest grandson of the Emperor of Qin", Feng Yao would think of Qin Jiyan, but it happened that he was not chasing Qin Jiyan at the moment.
Feng Yao tried hard to pull back his thoughts and decisively ordered: "Surround Anlan Street and no one is allowed to enter or exit."
On this day, it seemed that the Xihu people were lucky. After An Tong and Feng Yao discovered the whereabouts of the target, the Imperial Army also discovered traces of the five absconding prisoners and were preparing to lead troops to encircle and suppress them.
The five prisoners went all the way south. According to prisoner No. 1 Gao Chiming, they should have gone to seek refuge with their father, but they walked for three days without meeting anyone to help them, and the six people who rescued her and him didn't think much of Xihu.
Familiar and stumbling along the way, Gao Chiming had to doubt.
Although Gao Chiming has lived in a prison since he was a child, he is not stupid. These six people are very suspicious. Gao Chiming didn't say it a few days ago because he needed these six people to take him with him, but now?
Three days have passed, and these six people still haven't taken him out of Xihu. And judging from their intentions, they don't seem to want to take him out of Xihu. If he relies on these six people, he will end up very miserable.
"Who are you?" Gao Chiming couldn't help it in the end. He grabbed one of the other four people and asked when they were not around.
If he endures any longer, he will be found by the Xihu people, and these six people may not be able to protect him then.
"Your Highness, we are the people sent by the old master to rescue you." The secret guard insisted, and at the same time secretly calculated in his heart, three days is enough time for His Highness and the girl to stay away from the capital, right?
The poor secret guard did not expect that there is a word in this world called "accident". Qin Jiyan and Gu Qiancheng encountered this one-in-a-million accident. Not to mention staying away from Xihu, they had just left the city gate, and they still
Wandering on the outskirts of the imperial city, he didn't even go as far as the secret guards.
"Don't speak secretly in front of Ming people. These few are not from Xihu, nor are they my father's subordinates. I am very grateful to the few brave men who rescued me and told me the truth. Who are you? What is your purpose?
?If you can cooperate, for the sake of saving me, I will not be stingy." Gao Chiming said sincerely, fearing that the secret guards would not believe it, Gao Chiming added: "Don't worry, heroes, no matter what
No matter what, you also rescued me and escorted me all the way out. I am only grateful to everyone and have absolutely no dissatisfaction."
Gao Chiming said all this, hoping that the secret guard would tell them his identity truthfully, but would the secret guard be so stupid?
It is true that they are not good at scheming or talking, but they know one thing, that is, His Highness Qin has ordered that if something unexpected happens, blame it on Northern Qi, not to mention that the partner they chose this time is also from Northern Qi.
The secret guard tried his best to make things difficult, but Gao Chiming swore to heaven that they were on the same team and he would never betray his savior.
With sincerity, gold and stone were opened. After Gao Chiming's repeated persuasion, the secret guard finally gave up and revealed his identity hesitantly.
They were from the Northern Qi Dynasty. They deliberately pretended to be subordinates of the former Ming Dynasty King and ran south with Gao Chiming in order to attract the attention of the Xihu pursuers and give Governor Yang of the Northern Qi Dynasty a chance to escape.
As for Governor Yang and his party? Of course they went north, and then took the road from Da Qin back to Northern Qi.
In short, Gao Chiming and his entourage were targets, and their purpose was to help Northern Qi lure away their pursuers, so as to buy Northern Qi time to escape.
Hearing the secret guard's answer, Gao Chiming couldn't hold back the smile on his face. He was very grateful to the other party for saving him, but no one would be happy when they heard that he was used to lure the pursuers.
Gao Chiming is not stupid, but he has been in the sky prison for too long, and he has not learned how to effectively control his emotions. He accidentally showed his dissatisfaction, and even the secret guards could see it.
"Your Highness Prince Ming, although we have the intention of taking advantage of you, we sincerely took you away along the way. When we encountered danger along the way, we also tried our best to protect you." As he spoke, the secret guard showed his bloody arm.
Qin Jiyan encountered several waves of pursuers along the way, not to mention them. The secret guards really used their lives to protect Gao Chiming along the way. If not for this, Gao Chiming would not have become suspicious until now.
"I will bear in mind the care you gave me along the way, but..." Gao Chiming didn't say the next words, but both parties understood the meaning.
They had to go their separate ways. Gao Chiming didn't believe it and couldn't believe them.
The secret guards didn't say much. They bought three days for His Highness Qin, which was enough.
"His Royal Highness Prince Ming has other plans. I won't bother you anymore. Let's say goodbye. I hope His Highness Prince Ming will not take this matter to heart. Although we took advantage of His Highness, we did save His Highness." The secret guard said.
It's a beautiful thing to say, but no one will feel comfortable hearing it.
use?
hehe……
Gao Chiming moved his lips and gave a stiff smile, "What are the heroes saying? I'm grateful to you before it's too late. How could I take it to heart? I know that these heroes are chivalrous and chivalrous. Gao has something special to say here."
The feeling of love.”
"Your Highness Prince Ming, please speak." The secret guard agreed readily. Gao Chiming showed gratitude and said hurriedly: "The five of us have been in prison for decades. If no one comes to help us, we may not be able to go far.
Please ask some strong men to escort us."
"Where to go?" The secret guard did not refuse, he had other plans in mind.
Gao Chiming didn't tell the place directly, but he would lead the way and would not delay the secret guard for too long, only one day at most.
The six secret guards discussed it, but it made no sense. With a smile on his face, Gao Chiming turned around and went to find the other four prisoners to discuss a hiding place.
These six people were unreliable, and they could only rely on themselves. After discussion, the five of them unanimously decided to take dry food and go to the Ice City for temporary refuge. As for the six secret guards?
Once they reach Ice City, they have no need to live anymore.
When Gao Chiming and his party went to Bingcheng, Qin Jiyan and Gu Qiancheng also came to Bingcheng, but before they had time to go down, the pursuers arrived...
