The Submissive Emperor

"Leave two people here to look for them, and the rest will continue on their way tomorrow." Xiao Chengjun didn't ask Lou Jing's opinion, and gave the order directly.

Yun Jiu looked up in surprise, "Thank you Your Highness for your kindness, but..." Originally, as a bodyguard, if you lose it, you should follow up by yourself, there is no reason for others to look for it.

Lou Jing waved his hand, "Let's do as Your Highness wants." Last night was really dangerous, he and Xiao Chengjun were linked together and almost died, but he felt that You Yunwei should not be so bad, this is the treasure left by his grandfather , he is not willing to compromise.

Unable to hide her joy, Yun Jiu bowed and resigned, and went out to discuss with Yun Yi the remaining staff.

"This matter shouldn't be the work of those assassins in Beijing." Xiao Chengjun moved his hand to Lou Jing's butterfly bone, where there was a large bruise, and the bluish-purple marks tended to turn black. It was very distressing to see, The movement of the hands is also a lot lighter.

Lou Jing hugged her husband's waist and squinted her eyes in enjoyment. This kind of injury is nothing to him, but the opportunity is rare, and you have to eat enough tofu. "Which way are Anshun and the others going?"

It stands to reason that Xiao Chengjun's trick to get out of the shell should have been hidden from those followers, so it must be someone else who is attacking them this time.

"They went to the east of Jiangzhou, and entered Minzhou from Xuanyang area." Xiao Chengjun frowned slightly.

Xunyang is located in the west of Jiangzhou, and it is not the shortest road to Minzhou, and it is not easy to get through the crane mouth of the Linjiang River. Anshun and the others went that way "according to common sense".Xuanyang and Xunyang are three hundred miles apart, and the assassins will never chase them.

There was no clue about crossing the river, the two of them stopped thinking about it for the time being, hugged each other on the bed and had a good rest for a day, before leaving for Jiuchang County the next day.

The whole Jiangzhou is divided into south, north, and west, each with four counties. The west four counties are close to Bashu area, and the land is barren. The south four counties are close to Minzhou and Lingnan area, and there are many mountains. The military camps of the four southern counties are also on the border between Jiuchang and neighboring counties.

Although the purpose of Lou Jing's coming out was to find a husband, but the errands given by the emperor still had to be done, so the two of them had to go to the Jiuchang barracks first to make an appointment to let everyone know that he, the Zhennan general, was here, so that they could follow Xiao Chengjun Go to Fujian to eat sea fish.

After crossing the river, there were not many refugees. Everyone walked smoothly, and there were tea sheds and food stalls on the official road.

"Does your arm hurt?" Xiao Chengjun reined in his horse and asked You Yunwei to go to the tea shed to pour some tea, and stretched out his arms to wrap around the waist of the man in his arms, telling him to sit upright.

"It doesn't hurt." Lou Jing leaned in the arms of His Royal Highness King Min very comfortably, because her arm was injured and she couldn't ride a horse, so they took a ride together. Fortunately, Lou Jing's bloody BMW and Xiao Chengjun's green horse were both The first-class horse and the two camels are not tired.

"Master, this place is only twenty miles away from Jiuchang City." Yun Ba asked the owner of the tea stall about the distance, and came back to report.

"Then let's eat in the city." Xiao Chengjun asked You Yunwei to get on the horse, and handed a piece of dry food to Lou Jing in his bag, "If you're hungry, eat first."

Lou Jing grabbed the baked brown sesame seed cake with her mouth open, took a bite happily, and let Xiao Chengjun wrap him in his arms.Xiao Chengjun shook the reins lightly, and the sweaty horse under him started to run.

Even though they are approaching Jiuchang City, there are still high mountains on both sides of the official road.The green mountains and green waters, accompanied by the crowing of warblers and the murmuring of swallows, are quite like a spring outing.However, before a biscuit was finished, the sweaty BMW suddenly neighed and stood up, and the biscuits flew out immediately.

Xiao Chengjun yanked the reins with one hand, and wrapped around Lou Jing's waist with the other to prevent him from falling.

This is a small road sandwiched between two mountains. Suddenly, two rows of large stones appeared on the road, blocking the road tightly. If the horses were not reined in time, the horses would almost fall over.

"Can you see clearly, are these people?" A bare-chested eight-foot man grabbed a thin, ragged man and pointed at Xiao Chengjun with the nine-ringed sword in his hand.

"That's right, it's them..." The person who was grabbed by the collar said tremblingly.

"Your Excellency, stop me, what's your business?" Yun Yice immediately stepped forward, and Yun Shisan and Yun Shishi also stepped forward at the same time, protecting Xiao Chengjun and others behind him.

"Stop rambling, let me ask you, were you at the Town God's Temple [-] miles away from Xunyang City four nights ago?" The big man had a gold ring hanging around his neck, glistening in the noon sun.

As soon as the voice fell, dozens of people rushed up from all around, all wearing sleeveless bunts, holding knives and sticks, looking fierce.

Xiao Chengjun was startled, and carefully looked at the thin and small man who was held in the hands of the big man. He looked familiar, and he must be a refugee who took refuge in the Temple of the City God!

"I don't know what the hero means. If you want to pay for passing by," Yun opened his mouth like a veteran of the rivers and lakes, and stretched out his thumb to touch his chest. price, we can negotiate."

Yun Jiu glanced at Yun Yi who had suddenly turned into an escort, and winked at Yun Twelve and Yun Liu, and they moved back a few steps knowingly, holding the bow hanging on the winning hook in their hands.

"I don't want money today, I'm dying!" The big man threw the refugee in his hand aside, raised the nine-ring knife and shouted.

"Fourth brother, keep the beauty in that pretty boy's arms for me." A man with a sinister face jumped off the high stone and said, patting the big man on the shoulder.

Hearing this, Xiao Chengjun's expression darkened immediately, he stretched out his hand and pulled out the Chixiao Sword from his waist, if he dares to covet his princess, he deserves death!

"Hmph," the burly man known as the fourth child cast a disdainful glance at Lou Jing who was nestled in Xiao Chengjun's arms, "Brothers, keep that rabbit, and I'll chop up the rest!"

When the bandits around heard the news, they rushed over shouting.

Yun Shier and Yun Liu jumped off their horses in an instant, jumped onto the steep slopes on both sides of the road as light as swallows, drew their bows and arrows, and shot towards the two leaders.

The big man with the knife avoided sideways, the nine-ringed knife quickly blocked the flying arrows, and made a crisp collision sound. He was immediately enraged, roared and rushed towards Xiao Chengjun, Yun Yi jumped off the horse and slashed at Xiao Chengjun his head.

The big man couldn't dodge it, he raised his knife to block it, his shoulder was scratched, and he immediately fought with Yun Yi.Yun Yi didn't expect that a person who only practiced foreigner's kung fu would have such great blade strength that he could fight him with his brute strength.

The person who coveted Lou Jing was not so lucky, he was shot through the chest by Yun Liuyi's sword, and a young man exclaimed "Second Master" and quickly pulled him aside.

You Yun's sixteen guards were not on the battlefield this time, they didn't bring long weapons, and they suffered a lot from close combat on horseback, so they jumped off their horses one after another, protected Xiao Chengjun and Lou Jing in the middle, and hacked and killed those bandits.

Bandits are mostly ordinary people, not many of them really know kung fu, to You Yunwei, it's like chopping melons and vegetables, but there are so many people, they can't be killed.

"Stand back and hit rocks!" The fourth child used the brass ring on the knife to strangle Yun Yi's thin knife, and shouted at the young men who had killed so terribly.

Those young men really retreated up the steep slope fighting and retreating. Seeing that the situation was wrong, Lou Jing grabbed the rein with one hand and turned the horse's head abruptly. The sweaty horse jumped up and rushed up the steep slope to the east. At the same time, many boulders rolled down the west slope, and the Youyun Guards rushed up the steep slope like ghosts, chasing and killing those who put the stones.

Xiao Chengjun jumped off the horse with Lou Jing in his arms, and stood still on the high stone that Yun Shier stood. Some people rushed to this side, and Yun Shier shot them all.

"Go to the boss for help!" Although the Jiuhuan Dao is heavy, Yun Yi's saber technique is very treacherous and extremely fast. The big man named Lao Si has been scratched several times on his body, and he is entangled by the tarsal maggot The endless sword technique was so angry that he screamed, still unyielding, shouting loudly at the high place for people to move rescuers.

"Bold!" At this moment, a loud shout came from not far away, and a group of people in yamen costumes ran towards this side.

"The officers and soldiers are coming!" shouted the young men, and began to flee in all directions.

The man who was shot by the arrow was run up the mountain with the help of his subordinates, and Yun Liu's arrow hit the knee, and he fell to his knees immediately. The little boy screamed in fright, left him and ran away.

"Ah——" the fourth child roared angrily, and lifted Yun Yi's knife with all his strength, daring to risk being cut by Yun Yi, he rushed towards Xiao Chengjun regardless.

Xiao Chengjun raised his sword to block the heavy blow, Lou Jing raised his leg and kicked him down.

The big man stumbled on the ground, he didn't bother to fight, he got on his horse and ran away, Yun Shier drew his bow, and shot an arrow at the man's back, the clinker seemed to have eyes in his back, crouched Dodged arrows on horseback, turned around on the path, and disappeared.

Several of You Yunwei's horses were injured by the stones, the people firstly wanted to protect their masters, so they stopped chasing them.

Those officers and soldiers who came late caught the man who was shot in the knee and a few young men who couldn't run in time, and tied them up tightly. Yun Ba immediately stepped forward to make friends with these officers and soldiers, and explained that they were robbed innocently. passers-by.

After listening to Yun Ba's words, one of the leaders turned around and clasped fists at Xiao Chengjun, "We are servants of the government office of Jiuchang County. Cross."

The governor of Jiuchang County?Lou Jing's brows twitched, isn't that the Master Yang Xingyang who wanted to send his daughter to An Guogong's mansion as a concubine?I almost forgot, this time he came out, he had to help his father urge the marriage!

"But did you touch your arm just now?" Seeing that Lou Jing's expression was wrong, Xiao Chengjun asked with a frown.

Lou Jing shook her head, and whispered in Xiao Chengjun's ear, "I just have something to see that sheriff."

Xiao Chengjun nodded slightly, and said to the yamen servant, "In that case, let's go to the county mansion."
