Funing Hall
Chapter 241 "I'm still Zhao Zongbao's little one."
He doesn't look decadent either.
If Xiao Shishi was here, he would rather go forward to meet him than run away.
If Little Eleven is not inside, where is it?
Yeluqin is here, so there's no reason Xiao Shixi can't come.
What is their plan, Zhao Cong claims to be smart, but he can't figure it out at the moment.
What's the point of going forward if Xiao Shiyi is not here?Besides, he also heard someone mention "princess" just now, could it be that Zhao Zongning came to Dengzhou because he was worried about him?Since the two groups met at the gate of the city and fought, my sister is not here, so is he, isn't it?
Zhao Cong suddenly regained consciousness.
He immediately pulled the reins, turned around and drove towards the city again.
On the way, three horses and three people came oncoming.
Zhao Cong stopped slowly and looked at the two of them.
After a while, Zhao Cong smiled slightly.
Yelu Yanli and Shao Yi had a rare cooperation, searched the whole Dengzhou City, but could not find their Majesty.
Shao Yi frowned tightly, and muttered: "Your Majesty took a horse, where did he go? Logically speaking, he shouldn't have left the city. After the accident at night, the city is full of patrols."
Yelu Yanli's expression was heavy, he looked towards the city gate, and said, "Go outside the city and look for it."
Shao Yi nodded: "That's the only way to go." After finishing speaking, he glanced at Yelu Yanli again, feeling extremely curious in his heart.What is this person going to do?Is he an enemy or a friend, is he going to harm their Majesty, or help their Majesty?
But now is not the time to delve into these things, not to mention, he can't get rid of this person!It's better for him to stare, lest this person do something bad again.
The two of them rode their horses and wanted to take people out of the city, when a few young eunuchs ran ahead, all panting: "My lord, my lord!"
"What's wrong? But His Majesty found it?!"
"No, no! Go back and have a look! There is a pigeon flying around His Majesty's yard, but it won't come down! Officer Fu said that there is a letter on the pigeon's leg—"
Shao Yi wanted to ask more carefully, but before the little eunuch finished speaking, Yelu Yanli flicked the reins and rushed out first.
"Go! Keep up!"
Yelu Yanli whistled while rushing back, and after a while, a sea dongqing flew into the air.With a long howl, it rushed straight down and stood on Yelu Yanli's shoulder.Shao Yi and the others were dumbfounded. This is a bird raised by the nobles of the Liao Kingdom, and it is extremely fierce. It is said that such a sea dongqing can only be born out of a hundred thousand eagles.
They ruled the country with literature in the Song Dynasty, even raising birds, thrush parrots, etc. No one dared to raise such powerful birds.Shao Yi is a military officer, but he likes it very much, but he can't find it at all, so he has opened his eyes at this moment.
But he didn't look at it for long, and hurried back to the house following Yelu Yanli.
As expected, the pigeons were circling overhead, but they did not come down. Yeluyanli whistled again, and his Haidongqing seemed to understand it.It flew into the air, grabbed the bird directly, and flew to Yelu Yanli's shoulder with a long howl.
Yelu Yanli frowned and unwrapped the note to read it, then stretched out his hand and squeezed the note tightly after reading it.He had a gloomy expression and a cold air all over his body.He threw the note in his hand, snatched the pigeon from Hai Dongqing's hand, and put it back in the air. The pigeon flew back immediately in fright.
"Let's go!" Yeluyanli shouted, turned around and ran out, Hai Dongqing circled in the sky, followed the pigeons as they flew away, and occasionally honked.Yelu Yanli got on his horse and ran west in the direction they flew away.
All the people present were dumbfounded, but Shao Yi reacted the fastest. He quickly picked up the note on the ground, and his expression changed after reading it.Fulu and Rantao hurried forward to watch together. Not only did their faces change drastically after watching them, they were trembling all over.
Your Majesty is at Wanyanliang's place!
Wan Yanliang asked them to exchange His Majesty's Imperial Treasure!
This kind of thing, it is better to believe it than to believe it, it is related to His Majesty.
The three of them looked at each other in blank dismay, suddenly not knowing what to do.Shao Yi is a military officer, Fu Lu and Ran Tao are no more than eunuchs and female officials no matter how powerful they are.When he was panicking, Zhao Zongning's voice sounded behind him: "Is there any news about my brother?"
Her voice was exhausted, even more hoarse and deep.
The eyes of the three of them lit up again, and they almost forgot that there was their princess!
They immediately showed the note to Zhao Zongning, after Zhao Zongning read it, he sneered, "Scum! Trash!"
She continued: "Wan Yanliang is just a stray dog. He doesn't dare to be upright in Dengzhou city. He only dares to sneak ashore. Now, we will drag the Jurchen captives to the vegetable market entrance and chop ten of them in a quarter of an hour! Until Yan Liang comes to rescue them! If he doesn’t come, tell everyone that they died because of their king! Then send someone to Jurchen to tell them the whole story, and if they don’t send someone to deliver them within three days Submitting the letter, my Great Song Dynasty will be its enemy forever! Although it is far away, it will definitely be punished!"
After such an order, Shao Yi immediately cheered up and said loudly, "Yes!"
These days, Zhao Zongning is dressed as a boy, with a sword hanging on his body.After finishing speaking, she drew out the long sword at her waist and said in a deep voice, "How can the emperor of Song Dynasty be rescued by someone from another country? Go! Follow me!"
"Yes!!"
Zhao Zongning took a few steps, then turned his head and looked at Rantao.
The eyes of Princess Baoning, who was cold and tough just now, were suddenly filled with gloom.
Rantao's heart softened, and he nodded at her: "Princess, don't worry."
Zhao Zongning smiled wryly. When Qian Yuemo was rescued, she was still breathing. She didn't know whether she could live or not.She didn't even know how her brother would deal with Qian Yuemo.
She took a breath, clenched her sword tightly, and turned around again. It was the proud and tough Princess Baoning again.
Zhao Cong was also a prisoner for the first time in his life.
Fortunately, Wan Yanliang and Qian Shang were able to save face, they didn't hurt him, and didn't touch him.
His horse was taken away, and he sat alone in the carriage. The only thing he was grateful for was that the small crossbow he was carrying was not found by them.This is also a newly developed weapon by Zhong Xing. Although Zhong Xing is gone, the weapon is still there.When he came, he put on a cloak, and nujian hid behind him, because he was not big, so he couldn't see it.
It was the attendant of the money merchant who came to search him.The follower should have spotted his weapon, but said nothing.
Zhao Cong thought to himself, while the carriage was swaying, his eyes were covered by a black cloth, his hands were also tied, and he didn't know where he was.
His spirit is highly concentrated, and he dare not slack off at all.Hurrying seemed to be in a hurry, he could vaguely hear the voices of Qian Shang and Wan Yanliang talking, but he couldn't hear clearly.
After concentrating too much, the time dragged on for too long, and he gradually became a little confused again.
While he was in a daze, he suddenly heard the long howling of birds.He immediately opened his eyes again, but still couldn't see anything.The bird's voice was a little strange, he had never heard it before.
What's even more strange is that the carriage actually stopped.The carriage stopped suddenly, and his body bumped against the wall of the carriage. The carriage was not specially made, it was not comfortable, it was very hard.After the impact, he fell to the ground and rolled around, hurting all over his body.But in this way, his ears were tightly pressed against the door of the carriage, and there was a gap under the door, so he could clearly hear the words outside.
Wan Yanliang said in surprise: "Your Majesty?!"
Zhao Cong's heart skipped a beat.
Qian Shang also laughed: "It turned out to be His Majesty."
Yeluyanli smiled half-smile, and stood in front of the two of them: "You two want to eat alone?" In fact, he wished he could kill the two dogs with a knife, but he was afraid that they would have helpers, especially since Wan Yanliang never went out alone. of.It's okay to hurt himself, but there is Zhao Cong in the car, so he dare not make any mistakes.
As Zhao Cong said, no one knew about his relationship with Zhao Cong.
Naturally, everyone thought that he had the same thoughts about Zhao Cong as they did, and that he came here at this time just to get a share of the pie.
Qian Shang still smiled: "Since His Majesty is here, everything can be discussed."
Wan Yanliang laughed even more: "In the future, the world will inevitably have to be divided, and the three of us are also destined."
Yelu Yanli scolded in his heart, but he could only keep a half smile on his face.He glanced at the carriage and asked, "Is Emperor Song inside?"
"Isn't it?" Wan Yanliang smiled, "Why does Your Majesty call you so unfamiliar? Emperor Song is your uncle."
Yelu Yanli sneered: "Uncle?"
"Why, no?"
Almost no one dared to ask Yelu Yanli about the old year, Wan Yanliang did not dare, but this time is not that time, Zhao Cong is in their hands.Yelu Yanli still had to rely on them, and Wan Yanliang couldn't help being a little proud.
"Of course not." Who wants to have the relationship with him as uncle and nephew.
Wan Yanliang smiled, thinking he understood, and said: "I heard that His Majesty personally led people to attack outside Dengzhou City? He slipped away again?" He laughed, "Thanks to His Majesty's actions, Master Qian and I were able to escape. Get out of Dengzhou City! You have led everyone away! Your Majesty said earlier that we should work together and that our benefits are indispensable, but now I really believe it."
He was clearly mocking Yelu Yanli for running away.In the past few years, he was also firmly suppressed by Yelu Yanli, and his hatred was no less than that of Li Liangcheng.But who made Zhao Cong in his hands now?
Yelu Yanli twitched the corner of his mouth, but didn't respond.Wan Yanliang is a tactful person, he accepts as soon as he sees a deal, besides, Yelu Yanli's ability to find this place is also due to his ability, he dare not underestimate him, there is no doubt that there are people beside him, so he immediately said: "We have sent a letter to Emperor Song , it won’t be long before someone will come, and not far ahead is our tentative place to stay, why don’t we sit down and discuss?”
"I have to see him first." Yeluyan reasoned.
Wan Yanliang smiled: "Your Majesty, you can't trust me?" How could he let Yelu Yanli look at Zhao Cong first at this time?What should I do if I see it and steal it?He and the money merchant also have some staff, but they are not around at the moment, they are all in that place.
Zhao Cong heard Yelu Yanli sneer again, so he stopped insisting on looking at him, and then their carriage moved forward again.
Zhao Cong was still lying on the ground, feeling a little empty in his heart.
He can't see, and he doesn't know the specific situation outside, and he is not a hypocritical person who needs protection from others.It's just that Xiao Shiyi's sentence "You two want to eat alone", and denying that they are uncles, and other words made him a little uncomfortable.According to Wan Yanliang's words of "their benefits are indispensable", could it be that it was really discussed a long time ago?
He took a deep breath, leaned against the wall of the car, and never heard the three of them speak again.
They were traveling faster and faster, and they had no time to talk.
After about half an hour, the carriage gradually stopped, they seemed to pass by a forest, Zhao Cong could hear the rustling of leaves.Yan Liang walked outside the carriage and said, "Your Majesty, please rest in the carriage!"
After he finished speaking, he laughed and said to the other two: "Let's talk about it elsewhere!"
Some footsteps sounded again, and the three of them gradually moved away.
Zhao Cong sneered, he was still lying on the ground, and no one came to help him.Although he seemed a little careless, his mind was spinning quickly.From this point of view, Wan Yanliang and Qian Shang really had no one to use, and only the coachman who drove the carriage followed them.
It happened that this coachman deliberately concealed the nujian on his body when he searched his whole body.
Who is this coachman?
But Zhao Cong couldn't take care of it anymore, he heard that it was very quiet outside, and the hands tied behind him moved.His hands were also tied by the coachman, but not very tightly.He was trying to see if he could untie the rope with his backhand, but apparently he couldn't.
He moved on the ground again, approaching the low couch at the back, and rubbed his hands on the corners of the low couch.
It's just that this is a very thick rope, and he has been grinding it for a long time, but it has no effect.He was not discouraged, and continued grinding in another direction.
While grinding, the carriage door was suddenly pushed open.
He immediately stopped moving, closed his eyes, and couldn't see who was coming, but he still looked out.Although the eyes are covered by the black cloth, they can still see the black shadow in front of them.One look at him and he knew that it was not Xiao Shishi who came.Thinking this way, he laughed at himself in his heart, could it be that he still counted on Xiao Shiyi to fail at this time.
There was unavoidable vigilance on his face, but the black cloth immediately before his eyes was untied.
It was already dark night, and he didn't need to adapt. He didn't even close his eyes, and opened his eyes to see a young man reaching out to help him.He also supported the young man's arm with his back and sat up. As soon as he sat down, the man knelt down on the ground and whispered on the ground: "Your Majesty, they are discussing in the room, please go."
"Are you the one who did the body search just now?"
"It's a villain."
Zhao Cong didn't ask who he was, if he could run, he would naturally run.He got up immediately, and the coachman hurriedly helped him, and he jumped out of the carriage, and there was a horse parked beside the carriage.He turned over and was about to get on the horse, when the coachman said again: "Your Majesty, our empress was forced by her husband, she never thought of harming His Majesty, please spare our Majesty's life."
Zhao Cong sat on the horse and looked down at him.After thinking for a while, he asked again: "When did your husband and Wan Yanliang start a relationship?"
"Further counting, the villain doesn't know. The last time Xianggong sent someone to Jurchen, it was two months ago."
Zhao Cong thought about it, it was just after Xiao Shiyi returned to Beijing.But he didn't have time to think about it, he turned around and glanced at the shimmering room not far away, his eyes half-closed involuntarily.
On the contrary, the coachman hurriedly said in a soft voice: "Your Majesty, please go! None of the three are good!"
Zhao Cong looked down at him, he knelt on the ground, raised his head and pleaded: "Our husband and Xixia Li Liangcheng have been in collusion for many years, and we threatened the empress with our wife, and the empress was forced to act like this! Li Liangcheng and Wan Yanliang are only the emperor of the Liao Kingdom Your Majesty, let's go! Wan Yanliang and the others are hiding behind this forest, before they notice, you go!"
Zhao Cong didn't answer any more, flicked his horsewhip, and rushed into the forest.
He guessed right before, this is a forest with a lot of trees.He couldn't tell the direction at all, but fortunately, the horse seemed to know the way, and ran quickly all the way out of the forest.Zhao Cong was used to being pampered, his wrist was tied up just now, and it still hurts now.He held the reins tightly and leaned on the horse's back, just wanting to run out of the woods quickly. He argued the direction so that he could return to Dengzhou City.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he came out of the forest, a bird flew up in the sky, screamed at the sky, and circled around him.
He has a bad heart, and if he yells like that, he will definitely be found out!He didn't even have time to argue for the direction, and quickly ran to the nearest road, but this bird wanted to follow him life and death, it couldn't get rid of it, and it kept singing from time to time.
Yeluyanli and the two of them were "discussing" in the room, Yeluyanli was very anxious, but he could only put on a face as if nothing had happened.He is also trying to figure out the details of the two of them, so as to know whether they still have any help.
Wan Yanliang also didn't want to show his hole cards, he didn't take the bait at all.
His patience was almost running out, he directly said about killing Li Liangcheng, and sneered at the money merchant: "I'm really sorry, Mr. Qian, for killing your master."
Qian Shang was only stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "Your Majesty is really smart. If I knew this, we should have cooperated back then, and—"
Before he finished speaking, the three of them heard the sound of birdsong from outside the house, the sound was extremely loud.
Yelu Yanli's complexion changed drastically, he stood up first, and rushed out.He knew exactly where the carriage was parked. He dragged his still-injured leg, and was stopped before he reached the carriage.He didn't even look at it. He waved his hand and sent people flying. He ran to the carriage in a panic. How could there be anyone in the carriage? !
He turned his head and stared at Chen Bai who had just got up: "Where are the others?"
Chen Bo pursed his lips and remained silent.
At this moment, his Hai Dongqing was still screaming in the distance, Yelu Yanli found his horse, got on the horse and chased in the direction of the bird singing.
Wan Yanliang and Qian Shang were a few steps late, when they came out, Yelu Yanli hadn't left yet.
They also wanted to follow, Chen Bo pulled out the knife behind him, and stepped forward to chop off the money merchant.Wan Yanliang was on the same boat as him, upon seeing this, he immediately pushed the money merchant away, and Chen Bai cut it off.Qian Shang turned around, not seeing a trace of panic, but smiled: "It's a formidable one."
But Qian Shang is only a civil servant after all, unlike Huang Shu who can dance with a sword, he has no backhand ability.
Chen Bai turned around and continued to chop, Wan Yanliang drew out his scimitar, and faced him, the two wrestled together.Qian Shang got on his horse and chased after him.
Wan Yanliang looked back and scolded "soft boy", but there was nothing he could do, he could only watch Qian Shang run away helplessly.He could only continue to wrestle with Chen Bo, and when he nailed Chen Bo to the ground, after a while, he let out a breath and pulled out his knife.
There was another "rustling" sound in the forest, a group of people came running, and the leader panicked: "Your Majesty! What's the matter?!"
Wan Yanliang gave a "bah" and said angrily: "Tell Emperor Song to run away! Yelu Yanli and Qian Shang both chased after them! These two really can't be trusted!"
"Hey! We should follow the king. If we follow, why are we here?"
Wan Yanliang snorted: "Not necessarily, I think Yelu Yanli played like this when he was still Zhao Shiqi in the southwest. We have paid tribute to him every year in the past few years, so we should learn something from him Come."
"Your Majesty?"
Without further ado, Wan Yanliang took off the clothes of one of them, wiped the blood on the body of the dead Chen Bai, and then threw it on the ground.The others immediately understood what it meant, followed suit, and tore off a corner of their clothes, which were more or less bloody, and then threw them on the ground, stomping on them, making them crumpled.
Wan Yanliang smiled: "Let's go, let's continue to catch mantises!"
When Zhao Zongning, Shao Yi and others arrived, they were all in vain, only a tragic corpse of unknown identity, many tattered clothes, and an empty carriage remained on the ground.Zhao Zongning went to the car to check first, and smelled the familiar fragrance of plum blossoms. It was the fragrant pancake that Rantao would occasionally use to make his elder brother's clothes. It was also uniquely made in the palace, and only Zhao Cong used it.
It can be seen that my brother did stay in this carriage, but he didn't know where he went.
Zhao Zongning frowned, and searched the surroundings with someone first, but found nothing, not a single person.Before they finished searching, the people who were searching near the carriage called her and Shao Yi repeatedly. They walked back, and after seeing what it was, they were all surprised.
They didn't look carefully just now, there were rags scattered all over the ground, stained with blood.
Shao Yi picked up a piece, looked at it carefully for a while, faced Zhao Zongning, and said solemnly: "It's the uniform of the Liao soldiers, and it can't be wrong."
"Zhao! Shi! Qi!" Zhao Zongning gritted his teeth.
No matter what, Zhao Cong couldn't get rid of the bird on top of his head, no matter whether he got into the woods or changed lanes, the bird would never let him go.Whether he was fast or slow, it was always hovering above his head.
Zhao Cong felt powerless, although he had never seen Little Eleven's Hai Dongqing, he didn't need to think about it right now, it must be that one.It is so embellished that he will always be found.
He ran all the way, and he ran very fast, and his unbelievable body really couldn't bear it.He would be found anyway, so he simply stopped, looked up at the big white bird circling, and said helplessly: "Let's discuss it, can we stop following?"
The big white bird didn't listen to him, and continued to circle around him.
Zhao Cong sighed and looked around, but he really didn't know where he came from.
When he stopped like this, the birds hovering above his head were not happy.It flew forward, flew for a while and saw that he didn't keep up, then came back, flew around him, and then flew forward again, in a cycle like this, as if it wanted to take him forward.
He laughed angrily: "You still want to take me away?"
It's just that Zhao Cong really lost his strength, and he couldn't help but find it extremely funny. He was so out of line that he might really die.After a while, he was found, what will that group do to him?
Thinking in another way, if he catches Wan Yanliang, Li Liangcheng and others, he will definitely be shot to kill.
But the bird still wanted to lead him forward, Zhao Cong sighed: "That's all, let's keep walking." He waved his whip, and the horse continued to run again.It was he who ran just now, and the bird followed behind.Now he is following the bird, maybe he still believes in Xiaoshi in his consciousness, and he didn't hesitate.
At this time, the sky will be bright, but it is not yet bright. Dengzhou is near the sea, and it is still winter, but it is actually very cold.
Zhao Cong couldn't help but tucked his cloak tighter, but even so, the wind still poured straight into his heart.He went to take back the cloak that was blown away from time to time, so that his elbow couldn't help touching nujian on his back.Subconsciously, he took Nujian from his back and held it tightly in his hands.
The nujian was made compact enough to hold in the hand. According to Zhong Xing's subordinates, although this crossbow is light, it has a long range, and can shoot as far as thirty feet.It's just that they have just been developed, there are only three in total, and all of them are respected to him.
He also took it with him because he thought it was small and not heavy.
But this nujian, how to use it, he has not had a chance to try it.
But the bird was really spiritual, leading him around the ground, unexpectedly came to a flat place.The sky is much brighter again, and from a distance, it seems that there are still houses.
Zhao Cong couldn't sit still anymore, kicked the horse's belly, and wanted to go up to the house to get closer.
Unexpectedly, Hai Dongqing above his head suddenly let out a loud cry, and then rushed behind him.Zhao Cong was taken aback, who is chasing him? !He turned his head immediately, and he saw nothing!
But Hai Dongqing was already flying farther and farther, Zhao Cong hesitated for a while, and even worried about the safety of the bird.Before he could make a decision, there was a sound from his side, and he turned his head immediately, but he saw nothing, but there was the sound of horseshoes!
Zhao Cong frowned. He looked down at the nujian in his hand, aimed straight ahead without hesitation, and shot indiscriminately, but he didn't hear any suspicious sounds.Zhao Cong smiled wryly, he didn't have a brush at all.Seeing that the sound of the horse's hooves was getting closer, he no longer cared about the bird, swung his whip, and changed direction, and his horse ran to the southwest.
But his riding skills are limited, so if no one is chasing him, it's okay.
At this time, a group of people who were obviously coming for him chased him, and immediately lost their horsepower.The sound of horseshoes behind him is not only getting closer, it is already close to his ears.
He didn't know where he ran, but there were several tents in front of him.Anyway, there is no way out, and there is only one way ahead.Zhao Cong gave another "drive", and drove the horse to hide behind a tent. He got off the horse and immediately sat against the tent, carefully listening to the sound behind him.
It's just that he was panting all the time and couldn't hear anything clearly.
But it doesn't matter if you can't hear clearly, that group of people has obviously approached the tent!
Zhao Cong held the nujian in his hands, his hands trembled a little, but he was still trying to stay calm.Soon, he was fully prepared, but unexpectedly, those people did not come up!He was surprised, when he heard them talking, he froze immediately.
They speak Khitan.
They were debating whether to kill him.
One person said, "Your Majesty hasn't arrived yet, so don't kill him."
Someone else said, "Kill Emperor Song so that I can claim credit from His Majesty."
After arguing and arguing, they concluded, "just watch here, and wait for your Majesty to deal with it personally."
Zhao Cong could understand Khitan.
So the bird that attracted him was really just to kill him?
The reason why he believed even a bird's behavior was because he always firmly believed that Xiao Shiyi never really wanted to harm him.
Locked in the carriage by Wan Yanliang, after hearing Xiao Shiyi's voice, he had to admit that while he was anxious, he couldn't help but feel relieved.
It is his own unspeakable, yet real, weird peace of mind.
But at this time, the group of Liao soldiers behind them were discussing in Khitan language how to act according to their majesty's instructions.
Zhao Cong turned around, he couldn't see the Liao soldiers across the tent clearly, but he could vaguely see their shadows reflected on the tent.He squinted his eyes, pointed the small nujian in his hand at the figure of one of them, and shot it directly.
This nujian is really easy to use, they are not far apart, and they are easy to aim.The feathered arrow passed through the tent cloth and hit the man with precision, and he fell straight down.
"He actually has a weapon!" They were still speaking in Khitan, and seeing the shadows, they immediately picked up their weapons.
Zhao Cong was expressionless, and he also stood up slowly.
He knew that at this moment, his emotions were not right.But at this moment, he really hated all of this.He is not a bloodthirsty person, but at this moment, he is so anxious and disappointed that he wants to drag everyone down to be buried with him.Although the opponent said he took up the weapon, he didn't do it, Zhao Cong shot a few more arrows and hit several people.
They were still talking in Khitan just now, but now they whispered anxiously: "What should I do?! His grandma, I never heard that the emperor can do this trick!"
"Kill him!"
"Your Majesty is not allowed to kill! The best show is yet to come!"
"If you don't kill him, we will all die with one arrow from him!"
The leader frowned and thought for a while, then decided: "Your Majesty won't kill him, but he didn't say you can't hurt him! Let's go!" After he finished speaking, he led his master and ran towards Zhao Cong.
Before rushing to the front, Zhao Cong walked out from the back of the tent and stood in front of them without any timidity.
On the contrary, they will be shocked!
Since he is an emperor, no matter how weak he is, his aura can never deceive people, even bluffs them.
The dozen or so people couldn't help but stop and stare at him.
Zhao Cong took advantage of the first light from the horizon to look carefully at the clothes on their bodies. They were indeed Liao soldiers' clothes, and they couldn't be faked at all.Even the pigtails on their heads are exactly the same as the bald heads.
Zhao Cong looked at them here, and they finally came back to their senses, and the leader said loudly: "Go!" They didn't have bows and arrows, but each of them had a special scimitar made by the Liao Kingdom, and they raised their feet and were about to charge.
Zhao Cong opened his mouth and asked, "Yelu Yanli sent you here?"
"Exactly!"
Zhao Cong laughed.
He looks good, the faint light from the sky covers his face softly.The originally pale complexion became more and more radiant. With such a smile, the dozen or so people who didn't want his life in the first place laughed stupidly.
Zhao Cong was still smiling, and raised the nujian directly in his hand. When the opponent reacted and was about to avoid it, the feathered arrow had already been shot, and it went straight into the leader's chest.
He yelled and fell back.
In this way, the rest of the people no longer cared about their king's orders, and angrily raised their knives and slashed at Zhao Cong.
After Zhao Cong shot the arrow, he seemed to have used up all his strength, his arm was limp and drooping, and nujian was about to fall, so he also closed his eyes.
He waited to die.
Unexpectedly, there was another burst of piercing sound, and then another burst of tragic "Ah!".Zhao Cong opened his eyes, and the person closest to him, who was about to slash him with a knife, fell to the ground.Before he could figure out what was going on, there was a sound of flapping wings in front of him, and he took a step back, and Hai Dongqing, who had just flown away, came back again!
It came directly in front of the man from a height and pecked at his eyes.
The sudden appearance of this bird made the other party take a few steps back in shock. After realizing that it was just a bird, someone wanted to chop it down.Hai Dongqing was very sensitive, and immediately flew back into the air, and when another person attacked Zhao Cong, it rushed down and pecked at Zhao Cong again, causing him to panic.
Costin is called "Condor", not just casually.
When Zhao Cong saw the bird go and return, his heart was moved.Goodbye at this moment, but a bird, and protect him like this.He immediately cheered up again, turned around, and got into the nearest tent instead.
Haidongqing is ferocious, its wings are big enough, and it flies around very flexibly, and this one has obviously been well trained.Its one bird made about ten people deal with it, and Zhao Cong took advantage of this opportunity to shoot arrows outwards.But because of the birds, these people also jumped up and down, and he didn't shoot a few more.
And the feather arrows will eventually run out.
At this time, Haidongqing was finally hacked by someone. It let out a shriek and flew high into the sky, but it couldn't fly higher at all, and the blood kept flowing down.Zhao Cong's heart jumped when he saw it, and he felt sorry for it. He saw someone chasing the bird with a knife again, but the bird was still thinking about protecting him, and seemed to fly back.Immediately he shot the arrow again at the man, but it missed and only hit the man in the calf.
The man was in extreme pain, and was also driven into extreme anger by the bird. He picked up the knife in his hand and threw it at Zhao Cong in the tent.
Zhao Cong didn't expect him to be like this, and when he was in a critical moment, he quickly turned around and rolled away.He dodged the knife, but twisted his foot again and couldn't move anymore.
Hai Dongqing's voice became lower and lower, fearing that someone had already caught him.
Zhao Cong has heard their proud voices. In fact, he is very suspicious now, are these Liao soldiers really Liao soldiers?It's still Xiaoshi, who cheated on his own family again?Otherwise, why would this group of people fight against Hai Dongqing, the emperor of the Liao Kingdom? How dare they?
But it was too late for him to think too much, someone came to the entrance of the tent, and that person stood at the door, looking at Zhao Cong.Suddenly he let out a sinister grin, put on the knife and walked inside.
Zhao Cong watched him getting closer and closer, and when his long knife was about to touch him, he suddenly fell forward, and his head fell right in front of him.
Zhao Cong was stunned.
He lifted his upper body with difficulty, and saw that the man had a knife stuck in his back.
Who is it? !
The screams before dying and the clashing of blades sounded outside very quickly. Zhao Cong felt his body getting colder and colder when he heard it.
He had planned to die just now.
But Hai Dongqing, who flew back suddenly and desperately wanted to protect him, pulled him back again.
He hasn't met Xiao Shiyi yet, and he hasn't asked the exact answer, so how can he die? !
He ran out so desperately tonight, isn't it also for this reason? !
Zhao Cong took a deep breath, propped himself on the ground and climbed up, but he really couldn't use his strength.The more he thought about the screams outside, he secretly guessed that this was a really powerful person.
He had to protect himself, he reached his nujian, counted the remaining feather arrows, and hugged nujian tightly in his arms.
As soon as he was hugged in his arms, there was a final scream outside the tent, followed by a dead silence.Zhao Cong didn't dare to move, and after a while, footsteps sounded again, but the footsteps sounded very stagnant.Zhao Cong secretly guessed that this person was also injured, and it was very difficult for him to walk.
Despite the effort, the man reached the tent door.
Zhao Cong froze and lay down on the ground, pretending to be dead.
Even if he is injured, this person is one against ten, so he must be careful.
He was pretending to be dead, but the man was getting closer and closer to him, and it was getting harder and harder for the man to walk.
Finally, the man walked up to him.
Zhao Cong was so nervous that his hands were shaking, he heard the sound of drawing a knife, and he squeezed Nujian tighter in his arms.He heard the sound of cloth rubbing against each other, guessing that this person was about to stab him again, he immediately took nujian out of his arms, and quickly shot an arrow at the opponent.
At the same time as the arrow shot out, he also opened his eyes, but he stopped immediately.
The person in front of him was inserting a knife into the person in the tent who had fallen on the ground before. After being shot, he turned his head slowly.
Zhao Cong looked at him, he was familiar, but he was unfamiliar, he was covered in blood, and he was in a mess.
Zhao Cong looked down again, and saw the arrow he shot, which went straight through his ankle.
Zhao Cong was lying on the ground, already having difficulty breathing, so he seemed to be unable to breathe out.He even trembled a little, his hands trembling.He subconsciously reached out, trying to pull out the arrow.
But before Zhao Cong stretched out his hand, he suddenly knelt down in front of him, stretched out his hand and picked him up, holding him tightly in his arms.
Zhao Cong went limp all over, as if he had lost all consciousness.
Until Zhao Cong felt a slight heat on his face, he came back to his senses, moved his hands up and touched the other's wet eyes.
"Your Majesty—" Yelu Yanli hugged Zhao Cong, crying into his shoulder.
When Yelu Yanli came, he was worried and frightened all the way. This was originally the place where they planned to camp outside the city, and the tents had already been set up in advance.Yelu Yanli never thought of attacking Dengzhou, he just wanted to come and kill Qian Shang's father and daughter, save Zhao Cong and leave.
But who would have expected these things to happen.
He just came along with his own Haidongqing, but the horse never ran as fast as the bird.Hai Dongqing sent Zhao Cong here, and went to look for him again.He was worried about Zhao Cong, and drove the bird back again.
When he actually arrived, he happened to see his bird fall from the sky.
His heart immediately hung high, he was almost
If Xiao Shishi was here, he would rather go forward to meet him than run away.
If Little Eleven is not inside, where is it?
Yeluqin is here, so there's no reason Xiao Shixi can't come.
What is their plan, Zhao Cong claims to be smart, but he can't figure it out at the moment.
What's the point of going forward if Xiao Shiyi is not here?Besides, he also heard someone mention "princess" just now, could it be that Zhao Zongning came to Dengzhou because he was worried about him?Since the two groups met at the gate of the city and fought, my sister is not here, so is he, isn't it?
Zhao Cong suddenly regained consciousness.
He immediately pulled the reins, turned around and drove towards the city again.
On the way, three horses and three people came oncoming.
Zhao Cong stopped slowly and looked at the two of them.
After a while, Zhao Cong smiled slightly.
Yelu Yanli and Shao Yi had a rare cooperation, searched the whole Dengzhou City, but could not find their Majesty.
Shao Yi frowned tightly, and muttered: "Your Majesty took a horse, where did he go? Logically speaking, he shouldn't have left the city. After the accident at night, the city is full of patrols."
Yelu Yanli's expression was heavy, he looked towards the city gate, and said, "Go outside the city and look for it."
Shao Yi nodded: "That's the only way to go." After finishing speaking, he glanced at Yelu Yanli again, feeling extremely curious in his heart.What is this person going to do?Is he an enemy or a friend, is he going to harm their Majesty, or help their Majesty?
But now is not the time to delve into these things, not to mention, he can't get rid of this person!It's better for him to stare, lest this person do something bad again.
The two of them rode their horses and wanted to take people out of the city, when a few young eunuchs ran ahead, all panting: "My lord, my lord!"
"What's wrong? But His Majesty found it?!"
"No, no! Go back and have a look! There is a pigeon flying around His Majesty's yard, but it won't come down! Officer Fu said that there is a letter on the pigeon's leg—"
Shao Yi wanted to ask more carefully, but before the little eunuch finished speaking, Yelu Yanli flicked the reins and rushed out first.
"Go! Keep up!"
Yelu Yanli whistled while rushing back, and after a while, a sea dongqing flew into the air.With a long howl, it rushed straight down and stood on Yelu Yanli's shoulder.Shao Yi and the others were dumbfounded. This is a bird raised by the nobles of the Liao Kingdom, and it is extremely fierce. It is said that such a sea dongqing can only be born out of a hundred thousand eagles.
They ruled the country with literature in the Song Dynasty, even raising birds, thrush parrots, etc. No one dared to raise such powerful birds.Shao Yi is a military officer, but he likes it very much, but he can't find it at all, so he has opened his eyes at this moment.
But he didn't look at it for long, and hurried back to the house following Yelu Yanli.
As expected, the pigeons were circling overhead, but they did not come down. Yeluyanli whistled again, and his Haidongqing seemed to understand it.It flew into the air, grabbed the bird directly, and flew to Yelu Yanli's shoulder with a long howl.
Yelu Yanli frowned and unwrapped the note to read it, then stretched out his hand and squeezed the note tightly after reading it.He had a gloomy expression and a cold air all over his body.He threw the note in his hand, snatched the pigeon from Hai Dongqing's hand, and put it back in the air. The pigeon flew back immediately in fright.
"Let's go!" Yeluyanli shouted, turned around and ran out, Hai Dongqing circled in the sky, followed the pigeons as they flew away, and occasionally honked.Yelu Yanli got on his horse and ran west in the direction they flew away.
All the people present were dumbfounded, but Shao Yi reacted the fastest. He quickly picked up the note on the ground, and his expression changed after reading it.Fulu and Rantao hurried forward to watch together. Not only did their faces change drastically after watching them, they were trembling all over.
Your Majesty is at Wanyanliang's place!
Wan Yanliang asked them to exchange His Majesty's Imperial Treasure!
This kind of thing, it is better to believe it than to believe it, it is related to His Majesty.
The three of them looked at each other in blank dismay, suddenly not knowing what to do.Shao Yi is a military officer, Fu Lu and Ran Tao are no more than eunuchs and female officials no matter how powerful they are.When he was panicking, Zhao Zongning's voice sounded behind him: "Is there any news about my brother?"
Her voice was exhausted, even more hoarse and deep.
The eyes of the three of them lit up again, and they almost forgot that there was their princess!
They immediately showed the note to Zhao Zongning, after Zhao Zongning read it, he sneered, "Scum! Trash!"
She continued: "Wan Yanliang is just a stray dog. He doesn't dare to be upright in Dengzhou city. He only dares to sneak ashore. Now, we will drag the Jurchen captives to the vegetable market entrance and chop ten of them in a quarter of an hour! Until Yan Liang comes to rescue them! If he doesn’t come, tell everyone that they died because of their king! Then send someone to Jurchen to tell them the whole story, and if they don’t send someone to deliver them within three days Submitting the letter, my Great Song Dynasty will be its enemy forever! Although it is far away, it will definitely be punished!"
After such an order, Shao Yi immediately cheered up and said loudly, "Yes!"
These days, Zhao Zongning is dressed as a boy, with a sword hanging on his body.After finishing speaking, she drew out the long sword at her waist and said in a deep voice, "How can the emperor of Song Dynasty be rescued by someone from another country? Go! Follow me!"
"Yes!!"
Zhao Zongning took a few steps, then turned his head and looked at Rantao.
The eyes of Princess Baoning, who was cold and tough just now, were suddenly filled with gloom.
Rantao's heart softened, and he nodded at her: "Princess, don't worry."
Zhao Zongning smiled wryly. When Qian Yuemo was rescued, she was still breathing. She didn't know whether she could live or not.She didn't even know how her brother would deal with Qian Yuemo.
She took a breath, clenched her sword tightly, and turned around again. It was the proud and tough Princess Baoning again.
Zhao Cong was also a prisoner for the first time in his life.
Fortunately, Wan Yanliang and Qian Shang were able to save face, they didn't hurt him, and didn't touch him.
His horse was taken away, and he sat alone in the carriage. The only thing he was grateful for was that the small crossbow he was carrying was not found by them.This is also a newly developed weapon by Zhong Xing. Although Zhong Xing is gone, the weapon is still there.When he came, he put on a cloak, and nujian hid behind him, because he was not big, so he couldn't see it.
It was the attendant of the money merchant who came to search him.The follower should have spotted his weapon, but said nothing.
Zhao Cong thought to himself, while the carriage was swaying, his eyes were covered by a black cloth, his hands were also tied, and he didn't know where he was.
His spirit is highly concentrated, and he dare not slack off at all.Hurrying seemed to be in a hurry, he could vaguely hear the voices of Qian Shang and Wan Yanliang talking, but he couldn't hear clearly.
After concentrating too much, the time dragged on for too long, and he gradually became a little confused again.
While he was in a daze, he suddenly heard the long howling of birds.He immediately opened his eyes again, but still couldn't see anything.The bird's voice was a little strange, he had never heard it before.
What's even more strange is that the carriage actually stopped.The carriage stopped suddenly, and his body bumped against the wall of the carriage. The carriage was not specially made, it was not comfortable, it was very hard.After the impact, he fell to the ground and rolled around, hurting all over his body.But in this way, his ears were tightly pressed against the door of the carriage, and there was a gap under the door, so he could clearly hear the words outside.
Wan Yanliang said in surprise: "Your Majesty?!"
Zhao Cong's heart skipped a beat.
Qian Shang also laughed: "It turned out to be His Majesty."
Yeluyanli smiled half-smile, and stood in front of the two of them: "You two want to eat alone?" In fact, he wished he could kill the two dogs with a knife, but he was afraid that they would have helpers, especially since Wan Yanliang never went out alone. of.It's okay to hurt himself, but there is Zhao Cong in the car, so he dare not make any mistakes.
As Zhao Cong said, no one knew about his relationship with Zhao Cong.
Naturally, everyone thought that he had the same thoughts about Zhao Cong as they did, and that he came here at this time just to get a share of the pie.
Qian Shang still smiled: "Since His Majesty is here, everything can be discussed."
Wan Yanliang laughed even more: "In the future, the world will inevitably have to be divided, and the three of us are also destined."
Yelu Yanli scolded in his heart, but he could only keep a half smile on his face.He glanced at the carriage and asked, "Is Emperor Song inside?"
"Isn't it?" Wan Yanliang smiled, "Why does Your Majesty call you so unfamiliar? Emperor Song is your uncle."
Yelu Yanli sneered: "Uncle?"
"Why, no?"
Almost no one dared to ask Yelu Yanli about the old year, Wan Yanliang did not dare, but this time is not that time, Zhao Cong is in their hands.Yelu Yanli still had to rely on them, and Wan Yanliang couldn't help being a little proud.
"Of course not." Who wants to have the relationship with him as uncle and nephew.
Wan Yanliang smiled, thinking he understood, and said: "I heard that His Majesty personally led people to attack outside Dengzhou City? He slipped away again?" He laughed, "Thanks to His Majesty's actions, Master Qian and I were able to escape. Get out of Dengzhou City! You have led everyone away! Your Majesty said earlier that we should work together and that our benefits are indispensable, but now I really believe it."
He was clearly mocking Yelu Yanli for running away.In the past few years, he was also firmly suppressed by Yelu Yanli, and his hatred was no less than that of Li Liangcheng.But who made Zhao Cong in his hands now?
Yelu Yanli twitched the corner of his mouth, but didn't respond.Wan Yanliang is a tactful person, he accepts as soon as he sees a deal, besides, Yelu Yanli's ability to find this place is also due to his ability, he dare not underestimate him, there is no doubt that there are people beside him, so he immediately said: "We have sent a letter to Emperor Song , it won’t be long before someone will come, and not far ahead is our tentative place to stay, why don’t we sit down and discuss?”
"I have to see him first." Yeluyan reasoned.
Wan Yanliang smiled: "Your Majesty, you can't trust me?" How could he let Yelu Yanli look at Zhao Cong first at this time?What should I do if I see it and steal it?He and the money merchant also have some staff, but they are not around at the moment, they are all in that place.
Zhao Cong heard Yelu Yanli sneer again, so he stopped insisting on looking at him, and then their carriage moved forward again.
Zhao Cong was still lying on the ground, feeling a little empty in his heart.
He can't see, and he doesn't know the specific situation outside, and he is not a hypocritical person who needs protection from others.It's just that Xiao Shiyi's sentence "You two want to eat alone", and denying that they are uncles, and other words made him a little uncomfortable.According to Wan Yanliang's words of "their benefits are indispensable", could it be that it was really discussed a long time ago?
He took a deep breath, leaned against the wall of the car, and never heard the three of them speak again.
They were traveling faster and faster, and they had no time to talk.
After about half an hour, the carriage gradually stopped, they seemed to pass by a forest, Zhao Cong could hear the rustling of leaves.Yan Liang walked outside the carriage and said, "Your Majesty, please rest in the carriage!"
After he finished speaking, he laughed and said to the other two: "Let's talk about it elsewhere!"
Some footsteps sounded again, and the three of them gradually moved away.
Zhao Cong sneered, he was still lying on the ground, and no one came to help him.Although he seemed a little careless, his mind was spinning quickly.From this point of view, Wan Yanliang and Qian Shang really had no one to use, and only the coachman who drove the carriage followed them.
It happened that this coachman deliberately concealed the nujian on his body when he searched his whole body.
Who is this coachman?
But Zhao Cong couldn't take care of it anymore, he heard that it was very quiet outside, and the hands tied behind him moved.His hands were also tied by the coachman, but not very tightly.He was trying to see if he could untie the rope with his backhand, but apparently he couldn't.
He moved on the ground again, approaching the low couch at the back, and rubbed his hands on the corners of the low couch.
It's just that this is a very thick rope, and he has been grinding it for a long time, but it has no effect.He was not discouraged, and continued grinding in another direction.
While grinding, the carriage door was suddenly pushed open.
He immediately stopped moving, closed his eyes, and couldn't see who was coming, but he still looked out.Although the eyes are covered by the black cloth, they can still see the black shadow in front of them.One look at him and he knew that it was not Xiao Shishi who came.Thinking this way, he laughed at himself in his heart, could it be that he still counted on Xiao Shiyi to fail at this time.
There was unavoidable vigilance on his face, but the black cloth immediately before his eyes was untied.
It was already dark night, and he didn't need to adapt. He didn't even close his eyes, and opened his eyes to see a young man reaching out to help him.He also supported the young man's arm with his back and sat up. As soon as he sat down, the man knelt down on the ground and whispered on the ground: "Your Majesty, they are discussing in the room, please go."
"Are you the one who did the body search just now?"
"It's a villain."
Zhao Cong didn't ask who he was, if he could run, he would naturally run.He got up immediately, and the coachman hurriedly helped him, and he jumped out of the carriage, and there was a horse parked beside the carriage.He turned over and was about to get on the horse, when the coachman said again: "Your Majesty, our empress was forced by her husband, she never thought of harming His Majesty, please spare our Majesty's life."
Zhao Cong sat on the horse and looked down at him.After thinking for a while, he asked again: "When did your husband and Wan Yanliang start a relationship?"
"Further counting, the villain doesn't know. The last time Xianggong sent someone to Jurchen, it was two months ago."
Zhao Cong thought about it, it was just after Xiao Shiyi returned to Beijing.But he didn't have time to think about it, he turned around and glanced at the shimmering room not far away, his eyes half-closed involuntarily.
On the contrary, the coachman hurriedly said in a soft voice: "Your Majesty, please go! None of the three are good!"
Zhao Cong looked down at him, he knelt on the ground, raised his head and pleaded: "Our husband and Xixia Li Liangcheng have been in collusion for many years, and we threatened the empress with our wife, and the empress was forced to act like this! Li Liangcheng and Wan Yanliang are only the emperor of the Liao Kingdom Your Majesty, let's go! Wan Yanliang and the others are hiding behind this forest, before they notice, you go!"
Zhao Cong didn't answer any more, flicked his horsewhip, and rushed into the forest.
He guessed right before, this is a forest with a lot of trees.He couldn't tell the direction at all, but fortunately, the horse seemed to know the way, and ran quickly all the way out of the forest.Zhao Cong was used to being pampered, his wrist was tied up just now, and it still hurts now.He held the reins tightly and leaned on the horse's back, just wanting to run out of the woods quickly. He argued the direction so that he could return to Dengzhou City.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he came out of the forest, a bird flew up in the sky, screamed at the sky, and circled around him.
He has a bad heart, and if he yells like that, he will definitely be found out!He didn't even have time to argue for the direction, and quickly ran to the nearest road, but this bird wanted to follow him life and death, it couldn't get rid of it, and it kept singing from time to time.
Yeluyanli and the two of them were "discussing" in the room, Yeluyanli was very anxious, but he could only put on a face as if nothing had happened.He is also trying to figure out the details of the two of them, so as to know whether they still have any help.
Wan Yanliang also didn't want to show his hole cards, he didn't take the bait at all.
His patience was almost running out, he directly said about killing Li Liangcheng, and sneered at the money merchant: "I'm really sorry, Mr. Qian, for killing your master."
Qian Shang was only stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "Your Majesty is really smart. If I knew this, we should have cooperated back then, and—"
Before he finished speaking, the three of them heard the sound of birdsong from outside the house, the sound was extremely loud.
Yelu Yanli's complexion changed drastically, he stood up first, and rushed out.He knew exactly where the carriage was parked. He dragged his still-injured leg, and was stopped before he reached the carriage.He didn't even look at it. He waved his hand and sent people flying. He ran to the carriage in a panic. How could there be anyone in the carriage? !
He turned his head and stared at Chen Bai who had just got up: "Where are the others?"
Chen Bo pursed his lips and remained silent.
At this moment, his Hai Dongqing was still screaming in the distance, Yelu Yanli found his horse, got on the horse and chased in the direction of the bird singing.
Wan Yanliang and Qian Shang were a few steps late, when they came out, Yelu Yanli hadn't left yet.
They also wanted to follow, Chen Bo pulled out the knife behind him, and stepped forward to chop off the money merchant.Wan Yanliang was on the same boat as him, upon seeing this, he immediately pushed the money merchant away, and Chen Bai cut it off.Qian Shang turned around, not seeing a trace of panic, but smiled: "It's a formidable one."
But Qian Shang is only a civil servant after all, unlike Huang Shu who can dance with a sword, he has no backhand ability.
Chen Bai turned around and continued to chop, Wan Yanliang drew out his scimitar, and faced him, the two wrestled together.Qian Shang got on his horse and chased after him.
Wan Yanliang looked back and scolded "soft boy", but there was nothing he could do, he could only watch Qian Shang run away helplessly.He could only continue to wrestle with Chen Bo, and when he nailed Chen Bo to the ground, after a while, he let out a breath and pulled out his knife.
There was another "rustling" sound in the forest, a group of people came running, and the leader panicked: "Your Majesty! What's the matter?!"
Wan Yanliang gave a "bah" and said angrily: "Tell Emperor Song to run away! Yelu Yanli and Qian Shang both chased after them! These two really can't be trusted!"
"Hey! We should follow the king. If we follow, why are we here?"
Wan Yanliang snorted: "Not necessarily, I think Yelu Yanli played like this when he was still Zhao Shiqi in the southwest. We have paid tribute to him every year in the past few years, so we should learn something from him Come."
"Your Majesty?"
Without further ado, Wan Yanliang took off the clothes of one of them, wiped the blood on the body of the dead Chen Bai, and then threw it on the ground.The others immediately understood what it meant, followed suit, and tore off a corner of their clothes, which were more or less bloody, and then threw them on the ground, stomping on them, making them crumpled.
Wan Yanliang smiled: "Let's go, let's continue to catch mantises!"
When Zhao Zongning, Shao Yi and others arrived, they were all in vain, only a tragic corpse of unknown identity, many tattered clothes, and an empty carriage remained on the ground.Zhao Zongning went to the car to check first, and smelled the familiar fragrance of plum blossoms. It was the fragrant pancake that Rantao would occasionally use to make his elder brother's clothes. It was also uniquely made in the palace, and only Zhao Cong used it.
It can be seen that my brother did stay in this carriage, but he didn't know where he went.
Zhao Zongning frowned, and searched the surroundings with someone first, but found nothing, not a single person.Before they finished searching, the people who were searching near the carriage called her and Shao Yi repeatedly. They walked back, and after seeing what it was, they were all surprised.
They didn't look carefully just now, there were rags scattered all over the ground, stained with blood.
Shao Yi picked up a piece, looked at it carefully for a while, faced Zhao Zongning, and said solemnly: "It's the uniform of the Liao soldiers, and it can't be wrong."
"Zhao! Shi! Qi!" Zhao Zongning gritted his teeth.
No matter what, Zhao Cong couldn't get rid of the bird on top of his head, no matter whether he got into the woods or changed lanes, the bird would never let him go.Whether he was fast or slow, it was always hovering above his head.
Zhao Cong felt powerless, although he had never seen Little Eleven's Hai Dongqing, he didn't need to think about it right now, it must be that one.It is so embellished that he will always be found.
He ran all the way, and he ran very fast, and his unbelievable body really couldn't bear it.He would be found anyway, so he simply stopped, looked up at the big white bird circling, and said helplessly: "Let's discuss it, can we stop following?"
The big white bird didn't listen to him, and continued to circle around him.
Zhao Cong sighed and looked around, but he really didn't know where he came from.
When he stopped like this, the birds hovering above his head were not happy.It flew forward, flew for a while and saw that he didn't keep up, then came back, flew around him, and then flew forward again, in a cycle like this, as if it wanted to take him forward.
He laughed angrily: "You still want to take me away?"
It's just that Zhao Cong really lost his strength, and he couldn't help but find it extremely funny. He was so out of line that he might really die.After a while, he was found, what will that group do to him?
Thinking in another way, if he catches Wan Yanliang, Li Liangcheng and others, he will definitely be shot to kill.
But the bird still wanted to lead him forward, Zhao Cong sighed: "That's all, let's keep walking." He waved his whip, and the horse continued to run again.It was he who ran just now, and the bird followed behind.Now he is following the bird, maybe he still believes in Xiaoshi in his consciousness, and he didn't hesitate.
At this time, the sky will be bright, but it is not yet bright. Dengzhou is near the sea, and it is still winter, but it is actually very cold.
Zhao Cong couldn't help but tucked his cloak tighter, but even so, the wind still poured straight into his heart.He went to take back the cloak that was blown away from time to time, so that his elbow couldn't help touching nujian on his back.Subconsciously, he took Nujian from his back and held it tightly in his hands.
The nujian was made compact enough to hold in the hand. According to Zhong Xing's subordinates, although this crossbow is light, it has a long range, and can shoot as far as thirty feet.It's just that they have just been developed, there are only three in total, and all of them are respected to him.
He also took it with him because he thought it was small and not heavy.
But this nujian, how to use it, he has not had a chance to try it.
But the bird was really spiritual, leading him around the ground, unexpectedly came to a flat place.The sky is much brighter again, and from a distance, it seems that there are still houses.
Zhao Cong couldn't sit still anymore, kicked the horse's belly, and wanted to go up to the house to get closer.
Unexpectedly, Hai Dongqing above his head suddenly let out a loud cry, and then rushed behind him.Zhao Cong was taken aback, who is chasing him? !He turned his head immediately, and he saw nothing!
But Hai Dongqing was already flying farther and farther, Zhao Cong hesitated for a while, and even worried about the safety of the bird.Before he could make a decision, there was a sound from his side, and he turned his head immediately, but he saw nothing, but there was the sound of horseshoes!
Zhao Cong frowned. He looked down at the nujian in his hand, aimed straight ahead without hesitation, and shot indiscriminately, but he didn't hear any suspicious sounds.Zhao Cong smiled wryly, he didn't have a brush at all.Seeing that the sound of the horse's hooves was getting closer, he no longer cared about the bird, swung his whip, and changed direction, and his horse ran to the southwest.
But his riding skills are limited, so if no one is chasing him, it's okay.
At this time, a group of people who were obviously coming for him chased him, and immediately lost their horsepower.The sound of horseshoes behind him is not only getting closer, it is already close to his ears.
He didn't know where he ran, but there were several tents in front of him.Anyway, there is no way out, and there is only one way ahead.Zhao Cong gave another "drive", and drove the horse to hide behind a tent. He got off the horse and immediately sat against the tent, carefully listening to the sound behind him.
It's just that he was panting all the time and couldn't hear anything clearly.
But it doesn't matter if you can't hear clearly, that group of people has obviously approached the tent!
Zhao Cong held the nujian in his hands, his hands trembled a little, but he was still trying to stay calm.Soon, he was fully prepared, but unexpectedly, those people did not come up!He was surprised, when he heard them talking, he froze immediately.
They speak Khitan.
They were debating whether to kill him.
One person said, "Your Majesty hasn't arrived yet, so don't kill him."
Someone else said, "Kill Emperor Song so that I can claim credit from His Majesty."
After arguing and arguing, they concluded, "just watch here, and wait for your Majesty to deal with it personally."
Zhao Cong could understand Khitan.
So the bird that attracted him was really just to kill him?
The reason why he believed even a bird's behavior was because he always firmly believed that Xiao Shiyi never really wanted to harm him.
Locked in the carriage by Wan Yanliang, after hearing Xiao Shiyi's voice, he had to admit that while he was anxious, he couldn't help but feel relieved.
It is his own unspeakable, yet real, weird peace of mind.
But at this time, the group of Liao soldiers behind them were discussing in Khitan language how to act according to their majesty's instructions.
Zhao Cong turned around, he couldn't see the Liao soldiers across the tent clearly, but he could vaguely see their shadows reflected on the tent.He squinted his eyes, pointed the small nujian in his hand at the figure of one of them, and shot it directly.
This nujian is really easy to use, they are not far apart, and they are easy to aim.The feathered arrow passed through the tent cloth and hit the man with precision, and he fell straight down.
"He actually has a weapon!" They were still speaking in Khitan, and seeing the shadows, they immediately picked up their weapons.
Zhao Cong was expressionless, and he also stood up slowly.
He knew that at this moment, his emotions were not right.But at this moment, he really hated all of this.He is not a bloodthirsty person, but at this moment, he is so anxious and disappointed that he wants to drag everyone down to be buried with him.Although the opponent said he took up the weapon, he didn't do it, Zhao Cong shot a few more arrows and hit several people.
They were still talking in Khitan just now, but now they whispered anxiously: "What should I do?! His grandma, I never heard that the emperor can do this trick!"
"Kill him!"
"Your Majesty is not allowed to kill! The best show is yet to come!"
"If you don't kill him, we will all die with one arrow from him!"
The leader frowned and thought for a while, then decided: "Your Majesty won't kill him, but he didn't say you can't hurt him! Let's go!" After he finished speaking, he led his master and ran towards Zhao Cong.
Before rushing to the front, Zhao Cong walked out from the back of the tent and stood in front of them without any timidity.
On the contrary, they will be shocked!
Since he is an emperor, no matter how weak he is, his aura can never deceive people, even bluffs them.
The dozen or so people couldn't help but stop and stare at him.
Zhao Cong took advantage of the first light from the horizon to look carefully at the clothes on their bodies. They were indeed Liao soldiers' clothes, and they couldn't be faked at all.Even the pigtails on their heads are exactly the same as the bald heads.
Zhao Cong looked at them here, and they finally came back to their senses, and the leader said loudly: "Go!" They didn't have bows and arrows, but each of them had a special scimitar made by the Liao Kingdom, and they raised their feet and were about to charge.
Zhao Cong opened his mouth and asked, "Yelu Yanli sent you here?"
"Exactly!"
Zhao Cong laughed.
He looks good, the faint light from the sky covers his face softly.The originally pale complexion became more and more radiant. With such a smile, the dozen or so people who didn't want his life in the first place laughed stupidly.
Zhao Cong was still smiling, and raised the nujian directly in his hand. When the opponent reacted and was about to avoid it, the feathered arrow had already been shot, and it went straight into the leader's chest.
He yelled and fell back.
In this way, the rest of the people no longer cared about their king's orders, and angrily raised their knives and slashed at Zhao Cong.
After Zhao Cong shot the arrow, he seemed to have used up all his strength, his arm was limp and drooping, and nujian was about to fall, so he also closed his eyes.
He waited to die.
Unexpectedly, there was another burst of piercing sound, and then another burst of tragic "Ah!".Zhao Cong opened his eyes, and the person closest to him, who was about to slash him with a knife, fell to the ground.Before he could figure out what was going on, there was a sound of flapping wings in front of him, and he took a step back, and Hai Dongqing, who had just flown away, came back again!
It came directly in front of the man from a height and pecked at his eyes.
The sudden appearance of this bird made the other party take a few steps back in shock. After realizing that it was just a bird, someone wanted to chop it down.Hai Dongqing was very sensitive, and immediately flew back into the air, and when another person attacked Zhao Cong, it rushed down and pecked at Zhao Cong again, causing him to panic.
Costin is called "Condor", not just casually.
When Zhao Cong saw the bird go and return, his heart was moved.Goodbye at this moment, but a bird, and protect him like this.He immediately cheered up again, turned around, and got into the nearest tent instead.
Haidongqing is ferocious, its wings are big enough, and it flies around very flexibly, and this one has obviously been well trained.Its one bird made about ten people deal with it, and Zhao Cong took advantage of this opportunity to shoot arrows outwards.But because of the birds, these people also jumped up and down, and he didn't shoot a few more.
And the feather arrows will eventually run out.
At this time, Haidongqing was finally hacked by someone. It let out a shriek and flew high into the sky, but it couldn't fly higher at all, and the blood kept flowing down.Zhao Cong's heart jumped when he saw it, and he felt sorry for it. He saw someone chasing the bird with a knife again, but the bird was still thinking about protecting him, and seemed to fly back.Immediately he shot the arrow again at the man, but it missed and only hit the man in the calf.
The man was in extreme pain, and was also driven into extreme anger by the bird. He picked up the knife in his hand and threw it at Zhao Cong in the tent.
Zhao Cong didn't expect him to be like this, and when he was in a critical moment, he quickly turned around and rolled away.He dodged the knife, but twisted his foot again and couldn't move anymore.
Hai Dongqing's voice became lower and lower, fearing that someone had already caught him.
Zhao Cong has heard their proud voices. In fact, he is very suspicious now, are these Liao soldiers really Liao soldiers?It's still Xiaoshi, who cheated on his own family again?Otherwise, why would this group of people fight against Hai Dongqing, the emperor of the Liao Kingdom? How dare they?
But it was too late for him to think too much, someone came to the entrance of the tent, and that person stood at the door, looking at Zhao Cong.Suddenly he let out a sinister grin, put on the knife and walked inside.
Zhao Cong watched him getting closer and closer, and when his long knife was about to touch him, he suddenly fell forward, and his head fell right in front of him.
Zhao Cong was stunned.
He lifted his upper body with difficulty, and saw that the man had a knife stuck in his back.
Who is it? !
The screams before dying and the clashing of blades sounded outside very quickly. Zhao Cong felt his body getting colder and colder when he heard it.
He had planned to die just now.
But Hai Dongqing, who flew back suddenly and desperately wanted to protect him, pulled him back again.
He hasn't met Xiao Shiyi yet, and he hasn't asked the exact answer, so how can he die? !
He ran out so desperately tonight, isn't it also for this reason? !
Zhao Cong took a deep breath, propped himself on the ground and climbed up, but he really couldn't use his strength.The more he thought about the screams outside, he secretly guessed that this was a really powerful person.
He had to protect himself, he reached his nujian, counted the remaining feather arrows, and hugged nujian tightly in his arms.
As soon as he was hugged in his arms, there was a final scream outside the tent, followed by a dead silence.Zhao Cong didn't dare to move, and after a while, footsteps sounded again, but the footsteps sounded very stagnant.Zhao Cong secretly guessed that this person was also injured, and it was very difficult for him to walk.
Despite the effort, the man reached the tent door.
Zhao Cong froze and lay down on the ground, pretending to be dead.
Even if he is injured, this person is one against ten, so he must be careful.
He was pretending to be dead, but the man was getting closer and closer to him, and it was getting harder and harder for the man to walk.
Finally, the man walked up to him.
Zhao Cong was so nervous that his hands were shaking, he heard the sound of drawing a knife, and he squeezed Nujian tighter in his arms.He heard the sound of cloth rubbing against each other, guessing that this person was about to stab him again, he immediately took nujian out of his arms, and quickly shot an arrow at the opponent.
At the same time as the arrow shot out, he also opened his eyes, but he stopped immediately.
The person in front of him was inserting a knife into the person in the tent who had fallen on the ground before. After being shot, he turned his head slowly.
Zhao Cong looked at him, he was familiar, but he was unfamiliar, he was covered in blood, and he was in a mess.
Zhao Cong looked down again, and saw the arrow he shot, which went straight through his ankle.
Zhao Cong was lying on the ground, already having difficulty breathing, so he seemed to be unable to breathe out.He even trembled a little, his hands trembling.He subconsciously reached out, trying to pull out the arrow.
But before Zhao Cong stretched out his hand, he suddenly knelt down in front of him, stretched out his hand and picked him up, holding him tightly in his arms.
Zhao Cong went limp all over, as if he had lost all consciousness.
Until Zhao Cong felt a slight heat on his face, he came back to his senses, moved his hands up and touched the other's wet eyes.
"Your Majesty—" Yelu Yanli hugged Zhao Cong, crying into his shoulder.
When Yelu Yanli came, he was worried and frightened all the way. This was originally the place where they planned to camp outside the city, and the tents had already been set up in advance.Yelu Yanli never thought of attacking Dengzhou, he just wanted to come and kill Qian Shang's father and daughter, save Zhao Cong and leave.
But who would have expected these things to happen.
He just came along with his own Haidongqing, but the horse never ran as fast as the bird.Hai Dongqing sent Zhao Cong here, and went to look for him again.He was worried about Zhao Cong, and drove the bird back again.
When he actually arrived, he happened to see his bird fall from the sky.
His heart immediately hung high, he was almost
