The carriage passed through Dingyun street.
More than ten miles to the south is the Nancheng gate.
When the horse and cart went to the end of the street, it suddenly stopped.
At such a juncture, any disturbance is enough to shock people. The moment the carriage stops, all the people in the car suddenly mention it in their hearts.
"... it was the people of the five cities Corps who blocked the way."
The driver with the arrest robe whispered through the curtain.
"Dong!"
A deafening gong sounded, even the sound of horse hoofs mixed with a cold cry: "clear the streets from now on! Irrelevant people wait to avoid quickly. In a quarter of an hour, if anyone walks around without authorization, for whatever reason, they will be treated as assassins with the party!"
For a time, there was a lot of noise everywhere, including the frightened discussion of the people, the hurried closing of shops on the street, and the crying of children in the chaos.
"Go, go! If you're not careful, you'll kill your head!"
"Where is this assassin from? The government has such a big formation..."
"It's said that there was a fire in Dali temple and an assassin wanted to rob Xia Shoufu's prison!"
"Such a thing!"
"Not only... I have a relative who works in the Yamen. I just said that there seems to be no peace over the Taimiao. Now the city is more and more chaotic... Let's go and go home first!"
"Go, go..."
In the past, when there was a big event in the city, whether good or bad, the people could see it as fun and talk about it with melon seeds, but what Xu Mingyi heard was panic.
This is related to the frequent chaos in the world, the current situation in the city, and the actions of the imperial court and the emperor——
The army and horses of the five cities came out to clean up the streets
Once the street is cleared, it is equivalent to cutting off the possibility of "assassins" taking advantage of the crowd as a cover to escape, but such an array will undoubtedly cause the greatest panic among the people.
This must be the emperor's meaning - in addition to seeing the Empress Dowager and empress missing, I'm afraid I've suspected them, Xu and Wu!
Now that Qingjie has begun, the next step must be to block the city gate!
Xu Mingyi's men picked up a corner of the car curtain and looked forward.
The street vendors were busy tidying up the stalls. The crowd left in a hurry. In front of them, a line of soldiers and horses from the five cities army and horses department was across the middle of the street. The noisy gong was still ringing. The leader glanced at the crowd as if he was judging whether there were suspicious people.
"Break through!"
Xu Mingyi made a quick decision and ordered the coachman.
Never delay here!
You don't have to worry about the military and Horse Department of the five cities!
"Drive!"
Seeing the carriage moving, Zhu Xiu and other people leading the God meeting, galloped forward with a horse's belly.
Cars and horses rushed through the crowd, and the people screamed and dodged.
Hearing the movement here, the commander of Nancheng Bingma Department frowned.
At such a juncture, who dares to cross the market so arrogantly?
As soon as the idea began, there was no doubt when he saw the pedestrian's clothes.
"Sir, it's the man of the arrest guard." a small soldier whispered.
They are in charge of public security affairs in all parts of the city. Therefore, they often have friction with the police guards who are domineering and unruly, but they are always in charge of the military and horse department.
Who makes people listen to the emperor's orders directly, and no matter the size of the official position, it is not under the jurisdiction of any place?
"I'm not blind!" the commander stabbed the soldier. He heard the reminder in the soldier's tone and reminded him to get out of the way——
Although he was dissatisfied in every way, he still had to lift the reins in his hand: "go! Call them over!"
These are mad dogs. He's crazy to provoke!
A group of people and horses roared past like the wind, bringing up a burst of dust.
"... it's really a bunch of sons of bitches!" the conductor whispered a few curses and took his men forward.
"Faster!"
The avenue leading to the south gate is straight and open. Xu Mingyi confesses in the car.
We must hurry before the gate is closed!
Otherwise, even if you open the gate with the privilege of the arrest guard, it will attract people's attention. You can't muddle through. Once you pay more attention, there will be more flaws!
This is not the worst result——
If you encounter the inspection of the arrest guard, strictly guard against all exits and bump into them head-on, it is really hard to escape!
The dark guard answered and drove the carriage fast.
Ten miles
Seven miles
The Duke of the town in the carriage behind tightened his snow-white lips and measured them in his heart.
At the same moment, Han Yan got the news that all the men sent to monitor the town government had died——
And such a big town government is empty... Even a servant who can be interrogated has not been found!
But there is no need to go to trial at this time. These in front of us have confirmed the Xu family's intention today!
Han Yan personally led a group of arrest guards to chase in the direction of the south gate.
He was sure that the Duke of Zhenguo and others would choose to leave Beijing from Nancheng gate.
Compared with the imperial soldiers and horses distributed on all sides, several military barracks of Xu's army are located hundreds of miles south of the city——
At this time, there can be no more surprises. The time is pressing and the situation is critical. The township public election risks to leave the city at this time, betting on the lives of the Empress Dowager and the direct descendants of Xu Wu... These people are too heavy to miss!
If you choose other exports, if you are careless, you will be thrown into the net!
So, it must be the direction of nanchengmen!
No money to read novels? Give you cash or some coins, and you can get it within 1 day! Pay attention to the official account free!
"Pa!"
Han Yan threw down another whip, and the horse neighed and ran forward.
This job is far from ordinary and comparable. If he can't catch up with the Duke of town and others today, he will have to die!
"We are ordered to go out of the city and let it go quickly!"
Inside the south gate, the "anti affairs guard" led by him showed his waistband, sat on the horse and looked down at the gate guard with a cold tone.
The guard looked at the waist token and turned his mouth in his heart.
It's just a hundred households. They are so arrogant
But if it is not arrogant, it will not be the arrest guard.
The arresting guard is ruthless and frightening. It's not a day or two. Looking at these yamas in front of him, the guard also has instinctive fear in his heart.
However, the city has been very unstable recently. It is said that there was an assassin's prison robbery at Dali Temple just now. They, the gatekeepers, have to keep up their spirits. Anyone who goes out of the city and enters the city needs to be strictly investigated——
Even the family members of a fourth grade official who had just left the city for incense, carefully inspected the carriage.
Thinking of these, the leading guard couldn't help hesitating and making trouble. He smiled and subconsciously looked at the two carriages followed by a line of arrest guards.
This look, but the eyes changed slightly.
The edge of the back carriage was stained with fresh blood, and blood was seeping under the board
Or seeping for a long time, two drops of blood fell between the wheels.
The blood beads rolled into the dust and were still dazzling red.
