Unfortunately, the next day they did not meet King Luo as they wished.

After the people at the post office reported back, they told Jiang Yan that Luo Wang hadn't seen any guests recently, and brought a minister to tell him that the letter of credence would be delivered as soon as possible.

After sending the posthouse people out, Bian Youli leaned against the door and snorted coldly, "What do you mean, you won't let us go without seeing us?"

The minister who came just now had a lot of long-winded words, and finally summed it up almost like this. The king of Luo has no guests, and the matter of commerce still needs to be discussed by the ministers. You can wait a few days.

Although the words are very thorough, the meaning is not very pleasant.

"They probably think this way: because they don't see us," Jiang Yan shrugged, "so we can't leave."

When going on an envoy to another country, one must never abandon the letter of credence, forget about the mission, put aside the status of an envoy, and go away on his own.

Under normal circumstances, as long as Luo Wang's letter of credence is not returned for a day, no one can leave.

— But this is generally the case.

But this time the envoy from Jing country does not belong to this general situation.

Jiang Yan in the mission was Ruan Xi's childhood friend, not to mention Bian Youli, the whole country of Jing knew that the king loved him very much.With these two people present, even if the mission went back regardless, they would never be blamed by the king.

Moreover, Luo Guo's oblique efforts to prevent them from leaving obviously had ulterior motives. Although there was no way to know their real intentions, it was certain that they would threaten the mission.

That being the case, there is no need to stay here.

When Bian Youli heard Jiang Yan's words, he said without any hesitation, "Then we don't need the credentials, just go back and forget it."

With this sentence, the mission of Jiang Yan and others was frankly thrown out of the sky, as if the group of people were not here for an envoy, but for fun, and they could leave whenever they wanted.

It was because Ruan Xi had told himself to ensure the safety of Jiang Yan and himself before he set off, so he felt at ease by letting go of the responsibility.

It's just that he can not worry, but others can't be so willful.Li Shu was at the side, still a bit apprehensive, and said: "Then the matter of trade, should we just give up like this?"

It's a bit inappropriate to come and go all the way, and return home empty-handed without any proper reason.

Jiang Yan tapped his fingers on the table a few times, as if he was thinking about it, and after a while, he said: "It's impossible in the first place, so don't worry about it."

Anyway, everyone knows that Lin Xiangguo's mention of trade was never really for the diplomatic relations between the two countries or the national economy and the people's livelihood, but to eliminate the use of Luo to eliminate political enemies.

As for trade, whether to talk about it or not will not affect the confrontation between the two countries sooner or later.

If you are fighting for the survival of the country, staying in the Luo country at this moment, even if you are fighting with all kinds of blades, there is nothing to say, as a Jing country person, you cannot escape.But if it takes one's life for such a meaningless thing, it's not worth it.

Therefore, since Jiang Yan said so, the others stopped raising objections—anyway, Jiang Yan was the first to blame if something happened, so they naturally had no objections.

But even with the unanimous consent of everyone, it is not so easy to escape from the posthouse.

Several people discussed from morning to dusk, but in the end they still couldn't come up with a perfect plan. They decided to take the risk and let Bian Youli deal with the people in the post house first, while Jiang Yan led the others to change into Luo people's clothes and leave from the post house.

They packed some food and water from the posthouse, Bian Youli took the sword left by the assassin who came before, changed into black clothes, and went out through the window.

Not long after, the shouts of assassins came from outside, as well as the sound of more and more weapons.

Jiang Yan went to the window to have a look, took the rest of the people to pack their bags, and ran to the side door in the agreed direction. As expected, he didn't see a few guards along the way, and they must have been lured away by Bian Youli.

Taking advantage of the night, Jiang Yan and the others left the post house smoothly, bought some clothes on the street, disguised themselves properly, bought some easy-to-carry food, bought some horses from a horse dealer, and went out the city gate.

When Jiang Yan and others left the city, it was too early for Yeping to close the city gate, but after all the night had fallen and people's faces could not be seen clearly, so there was no obstacle.A few people did not dare to neglect after leaving Yeping, and ran all the way until they saw a river, then stopped to rest and gave the horses water.

After sitting for a while, they saw someone riding a horse coming from a distance.

Bian You saw Jiang Yan and the others from a long distance away, and ran over at a faster speed. Seeing a few people sitting on the ground leisurely, not nervous at all, he couldn't help laughing: "My lords, you haven't left Luo country yet, you should be careful at least. "

Having said that, he himself didn't seem uneasy.

The night wind blew the corner of his robe, and the black clothes he wore to hide his eyes and ears looked a little messy due to the wild running.After Bian Youli got to the side of several people, he jumped off the horse, smiled at them, and then turned to tie the horse.

After tying up the horse, Jiang Yan threw him a cloth bag: "Change it."

Bian Youli raised his hand to take it, and opened it to see that it was a set of Luoren clothes, plain white material and simple decoration.

After changing their clothes, Bian Youli urged them to leave quickly, wait until they got out of the border, and contact the general guarding the gate of Jing country before they rest.

Several people also knew that the situation was not safe. Although they were tired, they all obediently brought their horses and prepared to go on the road.

Not long after walking, there was the sound of horseshoes behind him, and there was still the light of the torch in the distance.

It looked like people from Luo Kingdom were chasing after him.

I had no choice but to run as fast as I could.When several people were desperately driving the horses, there was a whistling sound in the distance, which was very clear in the night.

The voice was very familiar, and Bian Youli knew it was Mingcha's signal, and he immediately breathed a sigh of relief.He estimated the distance, turned his head to Jiang Yan who was next to him and said, "Master Jiang, follow me."

After speaking, he pulled the rein of the horse, turned his head, and went straight to the direction where the sound came from.

Jiang Yan was taken aback by his words, and reined in his horse. Seeing this, he called Li Shu and the others, and hurriedly followed Bian Youli.

In the grass, Mingcha was still dressed as a businessman, and stood with a horse. When he saw Bian Youli, he hurried forward: "General!"

Bian Youli reined in his horse, saw that Jiang Yan had also arrived, and called Mingcha over: "This is Mr. Jiang Yanjiang, you take them to find Big Brother Run now, and then rush back to Jing Country, so Big Brother Run can bring someone to find me."

Jiang Yan looked at the team of nearly a thousand people in front of him with an unpredictable expression.But Li Shu and the others were completely stunned.

"Shall I take them away?" Ming Cha asked, "Isn't the general with you?"

Bian Youli shook his head: "People from the Luo Kingdom have followed, I'll deal with it, you protect them well."

"Okay," Ming Cha looked at Bian Youli's solemn expression, and stopped talking, pointing behind him and said, "This is 700 people, leave them to the general, I'll go find brother Zishun."

I don't know how many people came from the Luo country, but it is extremely rare for Mingcha to bring in 700 people from outside.Bian Youli turned the horse's head back, turned to Mingcha and said, "On the way, explain to Mr. Jiang, I will take him away first."

After speaking, he waved to the 700 people behind Mingcha, and galloped away.

Mingcha didn't wait for anyone to finish walking, he got on his horse and said to Jiang Yan: "Master Jiang, please follow me."

Bian Youli brought 700 people back, and he was worried that it would not be enough, but he didn't expect that the number of people coming from the other party was even less than him, roughly five hundred at most.

The leader was a minister of the Luo Kingdom, whom Bian Youli had met, who Jiang Yan had said seemed to be one of the people who restrained the King of Luo.

Seeing Bian Youli, the man was surprised by the sudden appearance of hundreds of people, and immediately understood, he said angrily, "Generals of the Jing Kingdom, how dare you lead troops into our territory without permission?"

Bian Youli retorted: "Masters of the Luo Kingdom, didn't you also privately send assassins to hurt my envoys?"

"What kind of assassin, I've never heard of it," the visitor said awe-inspiringly, "Don't blame me for being rude if you don't keep your word."

Bian Youli drew the long sword from his waist: "Coincidentally, I'm also quite rude."

The 700 people who came to Luo Kingdom were all carefully selected, and it is no exaggeration to say that one of them is as good as ten of them.And I don't know why, the people from the Luo country seem to be a bit cautious, and they dare not let go of their hands and feet to fight, so they are quickly defeated.

The outcome was decided, Bian Youli won easily, so he recruited his own people back, ordered a group of people to break up, ignored the minister of Luo Kingdom behind him, and just turned around and left on horseback.

He had already delayed for an hour, thinking that Mingcha would be able to lead Jiang Yan to find Runliu.

After reuniting with Runliu, with 4000 people on hand, they can safely rush to the Jingguo border. Calculate the distance, it will only take about a day.

Thinking this way, Bian Youli didn't even care about what the lost minister of the Luo Kingdom said later, he just kept on going, leading 700 people to chase Mingcha all the way.

On the way, I met Run Liu who was called by Mingcha. The people of Run Liu could not be brought into Luo Kingdom, so he came alone, and he was very excited when he saw Bian Youli.Bian Youli knew that Mingcha's journey was smooth and the envoy was safe and sound, so he immediately felt relieved, so he took him back to find Mingcha.

After confirming that there was no danger for the time being, the speed of the group slowed down, and it was only when it was dawn that they saw a familiar figure.

Unexpectedly, the moment they entered the place where Junliu was stationed, they ran into Mingcha who hurried out.

"General, Master Jiang is gone!"
