"Don't even show your head..."
Lu Qian had no better way to make everyone huddle inside the carriage.
Fortunately, Xia Xingbang seems to be in a hurry
He paid no attention to the carriage parked on the roadside.
Leading his team, he walked away.
Seeing them leaving, Lu Qian did not dare to delay at all.
Let the coachman drive away quickly.
Once Xia Xingbang knows that Xia Wenzhi is not dead, he will definitely send someone to hunt him down.
They dare not make any lingering.
Now it depends on how long Fang Daorong can delay them.
...
Inside Tongguan City
Fang Daorong learned that Xia Xingbang was coming and waited at the city gate early to greet him.
"Welcome to Your Highness the Sixth Prince,"
Xia Xingbang asked after seeing Fang Daorong. "City Lord Fang, are the envoys from Zhou Dynasty here?"
Fang Daorong deliberately delayed, but he didn't expect Xia Xingbang to ask this question as soon as they met.
It was not easy to hide it, so I had to answer vaguely, "The envoy of the Great Zhou Dynasty has left?"
Xia Xingbang's face turned cold and he said, "Leaving? What do you mean? Did you know that this prince was coming and you scared him away? You still don't want to give me face."
"Your Highness, Sixth Highness, this is not the place to talk. The minister entering the city is reporting to His Highness." Fang Daorong said.
Xia Xingbang did not ask further questions.
After arriving at the City Lord's Mansion, Fang Daorong first arranged for Xia Xingbang to stay.
He also said that he was going to prepare a dinner and entertain Xia Xingbang well.
Seeing that he valued him so much, Xia Xingbang smiled and agreed.
As for what Fang Daorong said just now, he has long forgotten it.
Until the dinner party
Xia Xingbang sat on the main seat, with a hot and beautiful woman in his arms, and said with a glass of wine in his hand
"They say that Dazhou women are weak, smart, and well-behaved... I think they are absolutely right. City Master Fang, I am very satisfied with your gift." Xia Xingbang said and kissed the woman's face very roughly. One mouthful.
"Your Highness, you are so naughty..." the woman said coquettishly, squeezing Xia Xingbang involuntarily.
Xia Xingbang also enjoyed it unceremoniously with one hand.
"As long as Your Highness is satisfied, I'll specially invite Da Zhou's song and dance troupe for His Highness."
Fang Daorong also spent a lot of money in order to delay Lu Qian's escape.
After saying that, he clapped his hands, and a group of dancers in sexy clothes came out.
These dancers have gorgeous bodies.
Xia Xingbang's eyes widened as he looked at it, and he had long forgotten what he asked at the city gate...
Just when Xia Xingbang was immersed in the sensuality of dogs and horses.
Dinner hall door
He was roughly pushed away by a group of people.
A group of soldiers wearing armor broke in!
A sergeant at the head drove the dancer away.
"How dare you, where did you come from! Why do you want to rebel?" Xia Xingbang yelled when he saw that someone had damaged his Yaxing.
"Xingbang! What time has it been? Are you still in the mood to sing and dance here! Don't you know that you are about to be in disaster?" A burst of thunder came from the door.
An old man with a tough face and black armor appeared at the door of the temple.
The old man is the soul of Huo Jiajun, Huo Xiaolin!
"Grandpa, why didn't you notify me in advance that you were coming...my grandson can come and pick you up." Seeing this, Xia Xingbang pushed the woman in his arms aside and stepped forward with an apologetic smile.
"I can't bear it! Did you know that His Highness has completed negotiations with Zhou's envoys!"
Xia Wenzhi was stunned for a moment, then said with a smile, "Grandpa, you really know how to joke... I'm afraid grass has already grown on Xia Wenzhi's grave."
Huo Xiaolin snorted coldly and said, "Xingbang, you have been treated like a monkey! His Highness deceived you by pretending to be dead! At this time, the Great Zhou Kingdom has given up the eight cities of Yanyun in accordance with the settlement agreement!"
Xia Xingbang glanced at Fang Daorong with a gloomy face and asked sharply, "Fang Daorong! What's going on!"
When Fang Daorong saw this, he could no longer hide it, so he told the whole story.
Xia Xingbang almost exploded with anger. He grabbed him by the collar and said, "Then why didn't you tell me earlier?"
"Forget it, come with me! Don't be embarrassed." Huo Xiaolin scolded him sharply, turned around, and left.
With an ugly expression on his face, Xia Xingbang followed Huo Xiaolin to the Chinese army's tent outside the city.
Xia Xingbang lowered his head and asked, "Grandpa, what should we do now? I was deceived by that old thief Fang Daorong!"
"Humph, you are getting anxious now?" Huo Xiaolin said coldly.
"You are still too naive! Don't worry, I have sent people to intercept and kill him! You hurry back to the royal city now. If you don't kill him, just do as I say." Huo Xiaolin said to Xia Xingbang in a low voice.
...
Lu Qian traveled a day's journey, which was bearable for humans but not for horses.
When we arrived at a small town, we were ready to change a group of horses and leave.
"Don't change horses. If you still use a carriage, they will catch up with you tomorrow." Nie Bing, who had not shown up until now, said out of nowhere.
"Them? Xia Xingbang discovered us?" Xia Wenzhi asked.
Nie Bing shook his head and said, "It's not Xia Xingbang, it's Huo Xiaolin's elite!"
So saying she suggested that they ride forward.
Lu Qian said awkwardly, "I can't ride a horse..."
Nie Bing was stunned for a moment and then said, "In that case, let's divide our troops into two groups. Your Highness, you and Empress Shu Bin ride on horseback to take the lead. Eunuch Lu and I will attract the pursuit of the large army!"
"No, I'll go with you." Zhou Shuran refused.
"Ms. Shu Bin, you and His Highness have distinguished status. And it is inevitable that there will be portraits of you among the pursuers. Eunuch Lu and I will accompany you and we will definitely protect Eunuch Lu's safety." Nie Bingbing continued coldly.
"Ms. Shu Bin, what Guard Nie said is right... we won't follow them. They will be safer!" Xia Wenzhi also tried to persuade her.
Seeing this, Zhou Shuran couldn't hold on anymore and had no choice but to agree.
They soon split into two groups.
After getting in the car, I felt uncomfortable looking at the ghost mask Nie Bing was wearing.
Lu Qian then said, "There are no outsiders here, Miss Nie. You can take off that mask. It's so scary."
"Eunuch Lu, if you feel scared, you can close your eyes." Nie Bingbing replied.
Seeing her answer, Lu Qian was about to say something when he was interrupted by Nie Bingbing.
"Eunuch Lu, stop talking. I need to take a rest. You are talking nonsense, so don't force me to gag you."
"*...)*#@#￥!"
Lu Qian could only scold Nie Bing in his heart and did not dare to refute him verbally.
This violent bitch really dared to gag herself.
He looked at Nie Bing resentfully.
Nie Bing simply closed his eyes.
Lu Qian didn't feel sleepy at all, so he simply looked at Nie Bing's figure, which was no worse than Xiao Min's.
The constraints of armor are so great, if you don't wear them...
Is that worth it?
Just when Lu Qian was admiring it carefully.
He felt Nie Bing's body move suddenly, and he appeared next to Lu Qian without even noticing.
He strangled Lu Qian's neck with his left hand, and poked Lu Qian's eyes with two fingers from his right hand, saying viciously, "If you look over there, I'll dig out your eyes..."
The best emperor master
