Chapter 498

When the soldiers heard the order, they took up their weapons and surrounded them layer by layer.

Yuan Zhi waved and Yuan Tao, with dozens of servants, stood in front of him.

Yuan Tao, with his knife across, guards Yuan Zhi's body: "young master, take all the people back to Hua Yan's territory, and I'll catch these thieves for you!"

Yuan Zhi has no time to think about it. He holds Murong Zhining on the horse, and Meng Xia also flies to a horse beside him to protect him.

The soldiers surrounded each other. The family members of the Yuan Dynasty were outnumbered. The dead and wounded lost more than half of their lives.

Meng Xia had a big drink. He grabbed a long gun in the hand of a soldier with his bare hands and rushed forward with dignity. After a close flash of knife light, a dozen soldiers of Shang Xia fell down.

Meng Xia fought more and more bravely. One man pushed more than 100 soldiers back to a dozen paces away. "Big brother," she cried, "you take the people back, and Yuantao and I will hold them back."

Huyanqi drags a broken arm and stands on the same horse with Mengxia, holding the sword against hundreds of soldiers.

Yuan Zhi in order to Murong Zhining safety, back way: "I take princess in Huayan territory waiting for you, pay attention to safety." He turned his horse head and fled with Murong Zhining to the border of Huayan.

The soldiers of Shang and Xia scattered and swarmed up. A group of soldiers surrounded Meng Xia and others. Another group of soldiers caught up with Yuan Zhi, cut off his retreat and surrounded Yuan Zhi and Murong Zhining.

Before Lu Fang hit the horse, he waved his long sword and chopped at Yuanzhi. Yuanzhi bowed his head to avoid the blade, but Lu Fang waved his back hand falsely. Taking advantage of Yuanzhi's stooping to avoid, he captured Murong Zhining to his horse.

Meng Xia exclaimed and rode to support her. A soldier was behind her. He hit the leg of the horse with a bayonet. The horse kicked up and flung Meng Xia out. A group of soldiers rushed forward, dozens of long guns, and held her together.

Murong Zhi condenses into a group and screams in horror. Lu Fang holds her tightly and laughs happily: "little beauty, don't be afraid. As long as you obey me, I promise not to hurt you. Come, kill everyone. No one is allowed to live. With Princess Fengyi in hand, I promise you, my brothers, that you will be promoted to a higher position and become rich! "

Just at this time, a group of SHANGXIA people were killed at the back of the team.

A general in silver armour, with a group of soldiers, came here with a great momentum.

Lu Fang said anxiously, "who are you? Misunderstanding, misunderstanding, it's my own person. "

General Yinjia rode up to Lu Fang and said, "Lu Fang, how dare you rob me of my credit in Xu Jiantao's territory? Are you tired of living? "

Rufanggong started: "it's General Xu! It's a big water rush to Longwang temple, misunderstanding! Four Lords have orders. Whoever gets Fengyi princess will make great contributions. I'd like to escort Fengyi Princess back to Beijing with General Xu! "

Xu Jiantao drew his sword and pointed to Lu Fang: "give the princess to our general, take your people with you, and get out now! The princess and my father-in-law's family have deep blood feuds. I will never let her out of Chongyang County alive! "

Lu Fang took a step back: "General Xu, Princess Fengyi can't live any longer. Why don't you send her back to Nanjin to receive the reward first and kill her later after receiving the reward?"

Xu Jiantao beat his horse and pressed: "I will take the reward alone. What are you? Hand over the people, I will leave you a dog's life, take your people and horses, and get out of my territory immediately! "

Lu Fang took the knife rest on Murong Zhining's neck: "don't come here! General Xu really doesn't mean enough. I just want to share a piece of cake. If the general refuses to compromise, I'll have to fight to death. "

Huyanqi shouted: "rufang, don't hurt the princess! Xu Jiantao, if you were not the princess who begged for you, you would have been a different place! "

Xu Jiantao sneered and said, "who do you think this general is? It turned out to be a wanted bandit! All of them are for me. As long as they stand in the way of our general, no matter their enemies or friends, they will be killed. " He waved to the soldiers behind him.

Lu Fang said anxiously, "wait! General Xu, wait a minute. You can kill the princess, but how can you tell the fourth prince if you kill me? I'm a close friend sent by the fourth prince himself! "

Xu Jiantao raised his chin: "give the princess to my general, and I will spare you a dog's life. Come on, now, now! Otherwise, general Ben will kill a lot. "

Murong Zhining holds her head and makes hysterical screams. Rufang is upset and says, "stop shouting, or I will kill you..." The voice did not fall, a cold light flashed, Murong Zhining suddenly looked back, a silver hairpin, has been firmly tied in the throat of Lu Fang.

Lu Fang wails, covers his throat with his hand, and rolls down to the horse with Murong Zhining in his arms.

Xu Jiantao comes forward and hugs Murong Zhining to the horse. He shouts loudly: "if you don't want face, you have to build a cheap life to give up! Get out of my place! " Lu Fang's soldiers are not allowed to collect corpses for Lu Fang. They turn their horses around and run away in confusion.

Xu Jiantao waved: "take everyone back to the camp."

Huyanqi and Yuanzhi, bound in all sorts of ways, pushed Xu Jiantao's camp forward, and Murong Zhi was sitting on a chair in a dignified manner.Xu Jiantao knelt down on the ground: "I will save you later. Please punish the princess and general Huyan!"

Murong Zhi nodded: "General Xu, please get up."

Xu Jiantao personally untied huyanqi and Yuanzhi: "the great kindness of the princess and general Huyan will always be remembered. At the end of the day, he received the arrest warrant from King Xiang'an. He has been waiting for the princess here for two days. "

Huyanqi calmed down from the shock and said, "well, Xu Jiantao, you have cheated our general!"

Xu Jiantao respectfully gave hoyanqi and Yuanzhi to the seat: "at the end of the day, he secretly escorted her back to Nanjin to repay her for not killing her. Unexpectedly, Lu Fang started first. Finally, he had to pretend to turn around and wait for the chance to save the princess. Fortunately, the princess will see the eyes of the last general, understand the meaning of the last general, and decisively kill Lu Fang! "

Huyanqi's face was full of shame: "finally, he will be dull and almost killed the princess! Thanks to the princess's intelligence, you can understand general Xu's intention with your eyes! "

Xu Jiantao bowed his hands respectfully: "general Huyan, regardless of his personal safety, resolutely escorted the princess back to Beijing. The general's loyalty made the general extremely overwhelmed. At last, he was willing to accompany general Huyan to escort the princess back to Beijing. With the appeal of general Huyan, the generals of all directions would fight back and pacify the rebellion of Shang and Xia!"

Yuanzhi was still in a state of shock. He wiped the cold sweat on his head: "I thought that I would die here. Fortunately, I was in danger!"

"Are you...?" Xu Jiantao asked, bowing

Yuanzhi returned a gift: "my name is Yuanzhi. I'm the elder brother of Princess Fengyi!"

Xu Jiantao said respectfully: "it turned out to be the eldest son of the yuan family! I have heard that the yuan family is not only very rich, but also has a deep friendship with the royal family of Shang and Xia. With the help of Mr. Yuan and general Huyan, the princess will be able to rescue the queen and the little prince smoothly and recapture the mountains and rivers of Shang and Xia. "

Yuanzhi asked, "General Xu and the princess, what's their friendship? Everyone else would like to take the princess in exchange for glory and wealth. Why is the general so sentimental and righteous? "

"More than a year ago, the princess and general chiyun, Hua Yan, passed by Songyang county. They had a dispute with their wives and brothers. My father-in-law and his brother-in-law escort chased and killed the princess all the way to the city of Huayan. My brother-in-law Yao Shilei was killed by general chiyun in the city of Wuzhou. The princess thought that I had little subjective malice, and let general Huyan forgive me for my sins. I've always been grateful to the princess and general Huyan! "

Yuanzhi nodded his head: "I see! If you plant good causes, you will reap good results! "

Huyanqi said anxiously, "Han min, the dog thief, will be on the throne in six days. He has set up checkpoints all the way to stop the princess. No matter how hard we try, we can't get to Nanjin before he ascends the throne!"

Xu Jiantao nodded confidently: "if you ride over the mountain and walk along the path, it only takes five days."

Yuan Zhi shook her head and said, "the princess is weak, and the cold weather is forbidden. In addition, there are many checkpoints on the road, so the situation is not optimistic!"

Murong Zhining said: "it's a special situation now, and I'm not allowed to be coquettish. Don't worry, Mr. Yuan. I can ride a horse. As long as we pretend to be captured by General Xu and escorted to Beijing by him, we can avoid the level of investigation. "

Xu Jiantao nodded his head: "the princess's plan is wonderful! At last, he will write a letter immediately and send it to the palace quickly. When Han min learns that the princess is captured by him, he will relax his vigilance! "

Yuan Zhi frowned: "although this plan is feasible, the princess's body It's too weak. I'm afraid I can't stand the running for days! "

Murong Zhining showed her composure and competence which were not consistent with her age. She resolutely said: "Mr. Yuan, we have no time to worry about this and that! My body is not so delicate as in your eyes. We are running with time. Every day we delay, my mother and empress will be more dangerous! General Xu, how many troops do you have? "

"Back to the princess, at the end of the camp, there were 8000 elite soldiers, plus Yao Shilei's idle troops, a total of 12000 people," Xu Jiantao said

Murong Zhining calmly places her head: "that's enough! General Xu immediately sent two thousand soldiers to Nanjin to gain Han min's trust. He lurked in the city of Nanjin and waited for us to cooperate with him. A thousand more people were sent to the barracks along the way to lobby, fake Han min's order to ascend the throne, and let all the officers and men gather outside Nanjin city. The rest of the troops, led by General Xu, pretended to escort me to Beijing! General Xu, if you ask someone to give this to Han min, he will be convinced that I am in your hands. " From the purse of her waist, she took out a piece of jade tree wrapped in a handkerchief and handed it to Xu Jiantao.

Xu Jiantao respectfully received jade Wu Tong: "then we will arrange the princess's plan first. Princess please rest here. At the end, we will deploy the staff to protect the princess immediately."

Looking at Xu Jiantao's back, huyanqi said anxiously: "princess, there is no real gentleman in front of interests! We can't believe Xu Jiantao. In case, he wants to lure you to Nanjin and ask Han min for a reward? "
