Wang Baobao smiled: "Young prince, we meet again. You Han people can't tell you anything. You ran away from me twice. This time I caught you."
Zhu Bai didn't panic at all, and grinned: "Hey, Master Qinuo, what a coincidence."
Wang Baobao was not polite. He came up and searched Zhu Bai, taking away all the gold medals and muskets.
Zhu Bai sighed secretly: Li Jinglong was so incompetent that he didn't even search my body. This bastard Wang Baobao got an advantage in vain.
Zhu Xi asked: "Where is Zhiqiu?"
Wang Baobao said: "When I leave safely, I will naturally let her back. Otherwise, if I let her go now, your men ambushing in the trees will fire thousands of arrows, and I will be miserable."
Zhu Fang gritted his teeth: "Wang Baobao, you are simply shameless."
Wang Baobao said coldly: "I am shameless? I, Wang Baobao, will not use any means to exchange my own brothers for women. Anyone can say that I am shameless, but you, Zhu Chong, are not qualified. Tsk tsk tsk, Zhu Yuanzhang is old and faint. You are actually asked to guard the northwest. You are the first vassal king of the Ming Dynasty, you are just a coward and a bastard."
Zhu Xi was provoked by him and pulled out the Yan Ling knife.
Wang Baobao also pulled out his Yanling knife and pointed it at Zhu Bai, and said to Zhu Ping: "Come on, I'll make you miss twice. Lao Zhu will cut you into pieces with a thousand knives. This is his favorite little son, hahaha." "
Zhu Xiang's eyes were bloodshot with anger, and the tip of the knife trembled: "Wang Baobao, one day I will cut you into pieces."
Wang Baobao smiled: "One day, I will, without you having to do anything, the wolf on the grassland will take me to see the true God. Don't worry, I will let that woman come back. Now I have this little prince, it is enough, keep that woman a little bit It’s useless, I have to open more mouths to eat food.”
After he had humiliated Zhu Ping enough, he hitched the horse to the carriage, waved his whip and shouted "drive" and walked away triumphantly.
The wind blew up the curtain on the back window, revealing Zhu Bai's cold eyes.
Zhu Xiang's heart trembled, he followed a few steps and stopped with his fists clenched. He watched the carriage disappear into the distance with guilt and distress.
Zhu Xiang gritted his teeth and said to the ambusher: "Come down."
There was no movement for half an hour.
Zhu Ping's expectation and nervousness turned into disappointment and anger, and he said to others: "Bring the horses, and I will go and recover them."
"Your Highness, look."
A black shadow slowly walked over from a distance.
Deng Zhiqiu lay on the back of an old horse, teetering on the edge of collapse.
"Zhiqiu." Zhu Ping called with a trembling voice, ran over to help Deng Zhiqiu down, and held him tightly in his arms.
Deng Zhiqiu's eyes were dull and motionless. After a while, he whispered softly: "I'm not dreaming. Have I really come back? Zhu Ping, is it you?"
Zhu Ping choked up: "It's me, it's me."
------
Zhang Yu and the others followed anxiously with their guards until they arrived at the North City Gate. The guard at the gate refused to let them out, saying that they did not have the permission of the capital commander. They were not Xi'an guards and could not leave without the emperor's decree.
Zhang Yu grabbed a guard and asked, "Has Master Li Jinglong's carriage left the customs?"
The guard said: "I left the customs half an hour ago."
Mao Xiang went to find Pu Ying, while Zhang Yu guarded the city gate.
Pu Ying was shocked when she heard that Zhu Bai had left the seclusion alone, and hurriedly led people to go out with Zhang Yu and others to look for him.
Counting this, it has already been an hour since Zhu Bai left seclusion.
As soon as they rushed out, Li Jinglong came back slowly on horseback.
Zhang Yu and the others rushed over anxiously and surrounded Li Jinglong.
Li Jinglong pretended to be surprised; "Hey, Mr. Zhang, what are you doing?"
Zhang Yu grabbed him: "Where is His Royal Highness King Xiang?"
Li Jinglong: "Your Highness, Prince Xiang, I don't understand."
Mao Xiang said coldly: "His Royal Highness the King of Qin said that you took King Xiang out of prison without permission, and put all the blame on you. I advise you to tell the truth earlier. Otherwise, guess who the emperor will favor in the end. ?”
Li Jinglong's hair stood up: I didn't expect Zhu Xi to be so cunning, and let him take the blame after taking advantage of him.
If he is unlucky, someone else will naturally take charge of the official affairs.
Anyway, it makes no difference to Zhu Xi who is in charge of the Guanya Bureau.
Although he is not as smart as Zhu Bai and Zhu Ping, his experience in the past few months has made him much more experienced.
At this moment, his mind was spinning rapidly and he made careful calculations. He sighed: "My twelfth uncle insisted on going out to hunt rabbits alone. He also wanted to take master Hongyuan and his disciples with him. If he said he had shot a rabbit, he would let Hong Master Yuan recited sutras to achieve salvation. I can’t stop him."
Zhang Yu and Mao Xiang secretly gasped: It turned out that they also brought Master Hongyuan and his disciples with them.
Zhu Xi is so poisonous.
In this way, any problems between Zhu Bai and Master Hongyuan have nothing to do with him.
All your troubles are solved at once.
Mao Xiang stared at Li Jinglong with a half-smile but not a smile: "Master Li, take care of yourself. Tell us quickly where you handed over His Royal Highness King Xiang to Wang Baobao. Maybe there is still a chance to save it. Otherwise, when the emperor finds out, the pro-military captain will have many ways to make it happen. You speak."
Although he couldn't do anything to Zhu Xi, scaring Li Jinglong was more than enough.
Even if Li Jinglong had never seen it, he had heard about the pro-military captain's methods. His face turned pale and he said: "I handed over to Wang Baobao and just put the three of them somewhere and left."
Zhang Yu was already so irritable that he seemed to hit someone. He grabbed Li Jinglong and said, "Quickly tell me where he is!"
Li Jinglong said: "One hundred miles away from the east city gate. His Highness King Qin will exchange people with Wang Baobao there."
It turns out that Li Jinglong is just the "delivery person", and Zhu Fang still has to handle the "transaction" himself.
Because he wanted to ensure that Wang Baobao received Zhu Baihui and returned it to Deng Zhiqiu.
As long as Zhu Fang picked up the guests and took them to the trading location as soon as they left the house, he could just hand over to Li Jinglong.
Fugui was very anxious: "Stop talking nonsense to him and hurry up to the east city gate to save His Highness."
The three of them led Zhu Bai's guards to the east city gate with another burst of speed.
Puying did not dare to be lazy and followed closely behind him.
As a result, the west gate guard said that King Qin had gone out for a while, but he had already returned to the city.
In this way, Zhu Xi has completed the hostage exchange.
Zhang Yu and Mao Xiang had cold hands and feet. If they wanted to save them now, they had to find a way to snatch them from Wang Baobao.
Pu Ying: "It would be great if General Lan is still in the grassland at this moment, but at this moment all the troops sent by the imperial court to pursue and annihilate the Mongols have withdrawn."
In fact, even if Lan Yu was here, he might not be able to do anything. After all, he had been looking for Wang Baobao for several years but could not find him.
Mao Xiang: "What should I do now?"
Zhang Yu: "We can only report it to the emperor as soon as possible."
Mao Xiang frowned: "How to repay?"
Lao Zhu's second son, together with Lao Zhu's nephew and grandson, kidnapped Lao Zhu and Lao Twelve to exchange for the second son's concubine from the enemy. If this kind of thing is told, it will be as absurd as possible.
Lao Zhu may not believe it.
