The scribe leading the horse that I saw yesterday on the Weihe River beach was standing on the bow of the building. He was still wearing the same gray robe, with his hands behind his back, watching with admiration the people in the Weihe River turning on their backs. This guy had a smile on his face.
, seems to be very fascinated by this kind of thing. There is no strict distinction between civil and military officials in the Han Dynasty. It is normal for officials to mount their horses and become generals and dismount their horses to serve as ministers. Unlike several dynasties in later generations, literature is civil and military is military, and generals fight with each other.
The entire country is collapsing in internal strife.
The scribe standing on the bow of the ship looked like a general, more like a suave poet.
Guo Xie shouted: "Uncle Yao loves you so much. Do you know what the consequences of disturbing the people with troops and ships are?"
This scribe was from Anling, his surname was Yao Shuai, and he was one of the most trusted guests of Princess Guantao. This time Chen Xu was crying and making a fuss about following Guo Xie to Shu County, so Yao Shuai was assigned to assist. Since something big happened,
, Yao Shuai has been hiding it, letting Guo Xie try his best to save people. Now that Guo Xie is also on the Su Ren ship, he naturally becomes the boss of the ship.
Yao Shuai nodded towards Guo Xie: "These thieves held the young master in Tangyi hostage. They should have been punished by Ling Chi, but you tolerated everything. The eldest princess's house has lost all face to you. If we can't rescue the young master today, we will have no chance."
Why do you want to go back to see the princess and Tang Yi Hou? Rush over and never let them escape!"
Su Ren looked at Guo Xie like a fool: "Do you understand now? I don't take you seriously at all!"
Guo Xie glared at Su Ren: "Humph, don't talk about me first. You can't run away either. You should be the first to die if someone catches up!"
There were so many boats that, except for the water in the middle, both sides were already crowded. Su Ren's boat was squeezed to the edge, and it would be stranded if it went any further out. In response to the domineering behavior of Princess Guantao's family, these merchants and boatmen from Chang'an dared
I dare not speak when I am angry.
The big ship was right in front of him. Yao Shuai had no intention of stopping the ship and rushed straight towards Su Ren's ship. The ships that were squeezed over did not evade in a hurry and were severely smashed. Su Ren stood on the ship, shaking violently. If
Dong Qian quickly caught her and fell into the water.
Lengjun asked: "What should we do? Why not go ashore?"
Su Rendao: "We must not go ashore. This guy just wants to drive us to the shore. There must be an ambush on the shore at this time!"
Those merchants and boatmen who were forced to abandon their boats and go ashore were immediately caught and chopped up with a knife without asking any questions. It was as tragic as the tragedy in the Yubi River. He looked back coldly, with lingering fear in his heart.
Su Kai came out of the cabin with Chen Xu in one hand and a sword in the other. He put the sword on Chen Xu's neck and shouted at Yao Shuai opposite: "Stop the ship! If the ship doesn't stop, we will collect his body for him!"
Yao Shuai sneered: "Kill him! You can't escape even if you kill him. Don't worry, I won't let you die too comfortably!"
Such guys are the hardest to deal with. The big ship is getting closer and closer, squeezing away the nearby boats and pushing Su Ren's boat to the shore. Fortunately, the water here is shallow, so the small boats can't get too close.
, but it was still within the range of other people's crossbows. The deck of the ship was full of people, holding crossbows in their hands, and the bright arrow tips were pointed at Su Ren and the others.
Uncle Yao smiled and said: "Mr. Su, listen to my advice and let my young master go, so that you can die comfortably. This is the biggest concession I can promise you. There are two sons in Tangyihou. If one dies, there will be another one. No.
It will ruin the incense."
Chen Xu was originally very happy to finally meet his savior. Unexpectedly, Yao Shuai said such words. Chen Xu immediately cursed: "Yao Shuai, you bastard, you want to kill me too, what benefit has Chen Tui given you? Such
help him?"
Yao Shuai ignored Chen Xu and still looked at Su Ren: "How about it? Mr. Su has a very good reputation in Shu County. He should be able to estimate the severity. You don't have much time to think about it. If you don't agree after a quarter of an hour, then give up."
It’s my fault for shooting the arrow!”
Su Ren shook his head and sighed, suddenly drew out his sword and stabbed Chen Xu's left leg fiercely.
"Ah...!" A miserable scream instantly silenced the noisy Weihe River. Everyone's eyes turned to Su Ren's cargo ship. Even those guys still floating in the river were no longer shouting.
Yao Shuai frowned. Su Ren smiled: "How about it? Do you want me to think about it again?"
"Uncle Yao loves to save me!" Chen Xu yelled like crazy, no longer caring about the pain: "As long as you save me, I will be rewarded heavily when I become Tang Yi!"
Yao Shuai didn't say anything, and Su Ren's second sword thrust out again. Chen Xu's right leg was hit again, and blood flowed down both legs, dyeing his middle coat and robe red. There was a drop of blood on the boat.
Datan. Su Ren looked at Yao Shuai. The two just stared at each other without saying a word. The entire Wei River was quiet except for Chen Xu's cry.
The building boat finally stopped, a stone's throw away from Su Ren's boat. Those boats that were forced to squeeze over quickly slipped away, either down or up. No one wanted to stay within the range covered by the arrows.
Inside.
Yao Shuai let out a long sigh and raised his hands to Su Ren: "He is indeed a hero in Shu. I have seen you. Please give way!"
Huge waves crashed on the river bank. Chen Xu's legs were simply bandaged, and he lay exhausted on the deck, breathing heavily. Guo Xie fell beside Chen Xu and kept saying words of comfort. Chen Xu
He frowned and said nothing, his face expressionless.
Along the river, Su Ren's boat slowly descended. The building boat was still following behind, neither far nor near. Wherever it passed, those people all paid attention and saluted, and many people began to ask who the young man on the boat was? It was so.
For offending Princess Guantao's mansion, it seems that she is dissatisfied with her longevity.
Chang'an City is in sight, with its huge city wall and wide moat complementing each other. A large amount of glutinous rice is added to the city wall made of loess, and it looks like a white city from a distance. The villages outside the city are one after another, and the busy people will only stand up to rest.
While walking, take a look at the tall boats coming from the Wei River. This is the center of the Han Dynasty, the most prosperous and majestic city in the world.
The Wei River flows through the north of Chang'an. Three bridges are built on the Wei River, connecting Xianyang and Chang'an, making it easier for the emperor to rest in the palace of the former Qin Dynasty. The Zhongwei Bridge is the most majestic and widest of the three bridges, and is also the official road to the north of Chang'an City.
Where you can see the Hengmen in the distance from under the Zhongwei Bridge. Only when you enter the Hengmen can you see the real Chang'an. Su Ren and others went ashore, and Yao Shuai also led others ashore. There were many soldiers on the shore holding weapons to guard Su.
Ren and others surrounded him, with a posture of determined not to give up until they achieved their goal.
Uncle Yao smiled and said: "Mr. Su, we have arrived in Chang'an, can you let my young master go?"
Su Ren shook his head.
Uncle Yao laughed and said, "I knew you wouldn't let me go. Tell me what other demands you have and I will satisfy you. Do you want these soldiers to retreat or go into the city? No matter what, I will satisfy you!"
"What a great feeling!" Su Ren looked around: "There should be no less than two hundred soldiers here, right? According to the laws of the Han Dynasty, deploying more than fifty soldiers without permission is rebellion. Princess Guantao will be harmed by you this time!"
"No, no, these soldiers are acting under orders. We are definitely not deploying troops privately. Mr. Su, please don't worry about me. Think about how you will get on with yourself in Chang'an from now on."
"Oh? By order? Whose order?"
"To tell you the truth, it was the Empress Dowager's personal order to kidnap the young master in Tangyi with the intention of killing people. According to the laws of the Han Dynasty, he should be punished with lingchi and his clan should be exterminated. Everyone related to Mr. Su is included in this list. I say
Is it clear enough?"
Su Ren nodded: "It seems I'm really going to die this time?"
"I'm afraid that's the case! Don't think that everything will be fine when you come to Chang'an!" Uncle Yao smiled and said, "I wish you had listened to me, so as not to suffer such a cruel death."
"Hahaha..." Su Ren looked up to the sky and laughed. When the laughter stopped, he asked a question that everyone found baffling: "Mr. Yao, do you believe in heavenly punishment?"
Yao Shuai was stunned.
"Boom! Boom! Boom!" There were loud noises inside and outside the Hengmen, and spectators and passers-by evaded. The flying dust obscured everyone's sight. The huge impact made the soldiers who were close to the Hengmen
The first one fell down. Su Ren pinned Dong Qian and Leng Yue under him, and a hurricane with the smell of sulfur blew over their heads, flying around like pieces of paper wherever they passed.
Yao Shuai hit a big tree so hard that his waist almost broke. He finally got up from the ground and looked ahead. The tall horizontal gate was missing. It turned out that there was a huge gap in the city wall. City City City
There were people lying down everywhere outside, shouting and screaming. Many people who were affected did not even leave their bodies behind. They were buried in the rubble.
Su Ren shook off the dust on his body, got up from the ground, moved his body, pulled Dong Qian and Leng Yue up, and asked loudly: "Are everything okay?"
"I'm fine!" Hawking was the first to respond.
"I'm fine too!"
"Someone passed out!"
Fortunately, except for a few minor injuries, everyone else was safe.
Uncle Yao looked at Su Ren: "How dare you destroy Chang'an City?"
Su Ren smiled: "What do you mean by destroying me? It's because God can't bear to see you guys doing evil things. Otherwise, why wouldn't any of my people die? But your people were killed and injured, and so many people were affected! This is called heaven.
Punishment!"
"My lies are misleading the public! Get them for me!"
"Who dares!" Su Ren held the sword in his hand and chopped off one of Chen Xu's arms: "If you take one more step forward, you will all die without a burial place!"
Soldiers are also human beings, and they will be afraid in the face of death. The atmosphere on the battlefield is different from that here. The battlefield is about fighting with people, and now this situation is beyond their understanding. No one wants to die inexplicably. No matter how Yao Shuai urges him,
No one dared to approach Su Ren and others.
Leaving Chen Xu lying on the ground and screaming, Su Ren cupped his hands to Yao Shuai: "Mr. Yao, today's competition is over. If you have any advice, I will definitely accompany you and say goodbye!"
"Boom!" There was another loud noise, and the Dongwei Bridge was torn apart from the middle, and flying wooden flowers hit the water like raindrops. Everyone's eyes changed when they looked at Su Ren, not with respect but with fear.
The fear coming out of my bones. (To be continued)
