Xiao Zimu took Zhao Xingwen, Xin Ya and Su Qian'an to the last day of the trip, declined the last batch of Jiedu envoys, and seemed to have entered the suburbs of Beijing.
Because Zhao Xingwen didn't want to make a statement, he wanted to sneak into the city to surprise Huo Wenshu.
Therefore, after entering the suburbs of Beijing.
Xiao Zimu didn't inform Jingzhong any more, but Xin Ya and Su Qian'an drove the carriage, carrying him, Zhao Xingwen and Zheng Zhongguang lying in the carriage towards the capital.
All the way to noon, Xin Ya stopped by the tea shop on the official road.
The four of them are going to have a rest with some dry food. They should have time to enter the city before sunset. The weather at the end of June is unbearable. The tea shop is resting in twos and threes for pedestrians to cool down and chat.
Xinya went to feed the horse. The three of them found a corner and rested. Su Qian'an took out dry food and distributed it to the two. Just after the waiter served herbal tea, Zhao Xingwen glanced around, put his hands on their wrists and lowered his voice: "there's something wrong with this tea shop."
They looked at him with puzzled faces and looked around.
The tea shop was greeted and sent, and the guests were scattered. There was nothing special about it.
"There are calluses on the inner side of the thumb and the inner side of the palm of the little two who serve herbal tea. This must be a person who practices martial arts and holds a knife all year round." Zhao Xingwen expressed his doubts to them.
Su Qian'an also found that the rest of the tea shop walked steadily and wisely, and their words were also thick and powerful.
So his face sank.
He took out some copper plates from his arms and put them on the table. He got up first and walked to Xinya.
Xiao Zimu has also seen the wind and waves. At this time, he stood up steadily with his eyes still and left with Su Qian'an.
Zhao Xingwen was the last to stand up and walked in the middle with Xiao Zimu, who was protected by Su Qian'an. Not far from where they were about to reach the carriage, an order suddenly sounded in the tea shop. The guests who had just been idle chatting took out their swords from under the table and chopped them at the three of them.
Zhao Xingwen shouted loudly and retreated while fighting with Su Qian'an. The three hidden guards also fell down and protected Xiao Zimu into the carriage.
Just as the door was about to close, a feather arrow shot out from the side, and Bian Zhao also fell down. With a sword, he opened the feather arrow and followed them to resist the enemy.
"Xin Ya Qian'an, go and drive." Zhao Xingwen shouted at them.
Su Qian'an heard that Yan flew into the carriage and the whip raised. Xiao Zimu lifted the driving curtain and called to Zhao Xingwen, "General Zhao, come up quickly."
Zhao Xingwen then stepped on the ground with his toes and flew towards the back of the carriage.
The three hidden guards and Bian Zhao fell on the carriage and just faced the four directions to protect Xiao Zimu in the carriage.
At this time, more than 40 people behind him were still chasing, while Xin Ya, who was driving a carriage, suddenly stopped.
Bian Zhao turned his head and looked behind him. Only then did he find that there were a large team of people in front, each wearing black masks, blocking the official road.
The team quickly surrounded them and wrapped them in three layers.
Now they can't advance or retreat. They have no way to survive except fighting.
Xiao Zimu also didn't expect that he dared to assassinate him in broad daylight after entering the suburbs of Beijing, and this time there are not only people in the Jianghu. Those queues are neat and well equipped. At first glance, they know that they must have been trained for a long time. Nine times out of ten, they are also officers and soldiers, so they can wear masks to prevent being recognized.
When Bian Zhao didn't know how many swords he had waved and how many people he had stabbed, and gradually began to be exhausted, the periphery of the queue suddenly began to stir.
Bian Ding jumped into the air and wanted to see what happened to the periphery of the sea of people. When he flew up, he saw the hands of Xiahou mansion.
Excited, he shouted to the leader, "Bian Yan."
Bian Yan was going to retreat with his hands. Hearing the sound, he looked into the air and found that it was Bian Zhao. Only then did he call back the people who wanted to retreat and began to attack the people in black wearing masks.
It turned out that Bian Yan was originally the group of people ordered by Lord Xia hou to intercept letters outside the southern suburbs. Today, Japan has been ordered to stay in the southern suburbs on the last day.
Therefore, after waiting for these days, they didn't cut anything. Bian Yan took his hands and spread to the southern suburbs to search.
When they approached this side, they heard the sound of fighting. When they heard the sound, they found that a large number of people and horses were sniping and killing someone here.
Bian Yan didn't want to cause more trouble. He was about to retreat, but the people below were acutely discovered by the other party, which caused a commotion.
He saw that there were many people on the other side and didn't want to fight. He commanded the people to return to the city first, but he didn't expect to hear Bian Zhao call him when he retreated.
He only knew that Bian Zhao was sent out by the Marquis to perform a secret mission, but he didn't know what it was.
So he didn't know who was surrounded inside.
But now it is known that Bian Zhao is among them. Naturally, Bian Yan can no longer stand idly by, and then led the people to fight and rescue, intending to tear a gap.
However, the other side had a large number of people. Seeing that they did not retreat against the war, they quickly drew out a team and surrounded them.
Although the situation is still not optimistic, Xiao Zimu and his party in the innermost part are slightly relieved by the sharing of the hands of Xiahou outside.
Just as the two sides were besieged in turn and fought hard, a group of people suddenly joined the periphery.
These people were the ones Xiao mubai ordered to cooperate with Xia Hou's house to intercept the letter. Han Hong personally led the team.
Han Hong was originally guarding outside the south gate. Seeing that the people of Xiahou mansion had been out for too long and had not come back, he was suspicious. Only then did he spread his hands and explore the suburbs of Beijing.
Therefore, he came later than Bian Yan.
However, fortunately, Han Hong joined.
The troops of this group scored more troops to surround Han Hong, which eased the situation of Bian Yan a little. It was not as severe as it was just now. After such a long fight, nearly 10000 troops of the other party suffered heavy losses, and because of repeated breakthroughs, even the formation was obviously relaxed.
With the hot sun moving westward in the sky, the whole suburb of Beijing has long been a river of blood.
Everyone has injuries, light or heavy. If they continue to fight like this, they will be exhausted and defeated before sunset. Sooner or later, they will die.
Just when there was a trace of despair in everyone's heart, Bian Zhao apologized to Han Hong across the air: "Han Hong, I'm sorry for you this time, and I'll involve you together."
The two of them have been outside the southern suburb every day these days. Although they are their masters, Xiao mubai's order is to fully cooperate with Xia Hou's house.
Therefore, the two have been making jokes for days, but they feel like old friends at first sight. They have a good personal relationship.
Before Han Hong made a sound, the innermost Bian Zhao shouted to the outside.
"Bian Yan, if you say so, I'm to blame."
