The two dead guards were cremated overnight and were handed over to their relatives when Xu Fu returned to the imperial city again.
Early in the morning, Xu Fu took a group of children to wash up and left in a hurry without even making breakfast.
There is no way, this place is too bloody, I can't stay for a moment.
As soon as the motorcade drove up the official road, it started to rain. God was kind and wanted to wash away the sins in this place.
Looking at Li Xiuyuan who was silent, Xu Fu asked: "Are you okay?"
Li Xiuyuan coughed and said quietly: "I'm fine. Two guards died... This incident caused a scene..."
"It's a pity that I'm still a little weaker." Xu Fu said in a deep voice with an apology on his face.
Lowering his head, Li Xiuyuan said: "Don't let anything happen to you, and those children, go to a small town ahead to have breakfast, and get rid of those weapons by the way."
There were too many weapons for one town to handle, so they had to sell them along the way.
It was originally a happy thing, but because two people died, everyone was in a low mood. Even the children couldn't be happy anymore smelling the thick blood.
Xu Fu nodded and sighed: "They have gone too far this time. We cannot continue like this."
Li Xiuyuan said coldly: "I have prepared a gift for you. When you get to Dongjun, you write a memorial to King Qin and let the adults in Dongjun deliver it to the imperial city for you."
Not far ahead was Dongjun. It was estimated that he could spend the night at Dongjun's inn tonight. Li Xiuyuan finally breathed a sigh of relief.
In addition to the heads he prepared for King Qin, he was afraid that it would be the turn of some adults in the imperial city to have a headache next, but he was not afraid. At worst, he would be more ruthless and cold-blooded in the future.
Xu Fu was stunned and couldn't help asking: "What gift?"
Li Xiuyuan knew what he was worried about and said quietly: "Two hundred heads, plus countless Qin slaves..."
Xu Fu was startled and couldn't help but lift the curtain, looked behind the carriage, and murmured: "Then...the last two carriages?"
This time it was Xu Fu's turn to tremble... Who dared to offend King Long Yan of Qin and assassinate the special envoy he sent?
He seemed to have seen the bloody storm in the imperial city.
My whole group was frightened all the way, but this time it was time to change to the adults in the imperial city.
Li Xiuyuan told Xu Fu his thoughts, which made Xu Fu frightened and nodded repeatedly: "Even the adults in Dongjun dare not hold this matter."
Li Xiuyuan sighed and said quietly: "Unless they want to be punished by King Qin of the three tribes, the dignified imperial army actually brought Qin slaves to assassinate the special envoy sent by the king. Let's see how some adults explain it."
"Who dares to explain?" Xu Fu murmured: "This is a problem that the king has to face. I dare not even think about it."
Li Xiuyuan chuckled. nodded.
Xu Fu said again: "You are still ruthless and use other people's methods to treat other people's bodies. I'm afraid I can't even think of it."
Li Xiuyuan shook his head: "I'll rest for two days in Dongjun, let the injured guards heal their wounds, and continue practicing swordsmanship and cultivation if they have nothing to do."
"Okay." Xu Fu coughed and said quietly: "I will take Zhao Meng to see the governor of Dongjun, and you can have a good rest in the inn."
Li Xiuyuan smiled faintly. He wanted to imagine in his mind what the expressions of the adults in Dongjun would be like when they saw these two carts full of heads and Qin Yu.
Not to mention, the expression on King Qin's face when these heads were delivered to the imperial city.
Thinking that something was wrong, Li Xiuyuan quickly said: "You have to tell the adults in Dongjun that these heads need to be treated with lime, otherwise they will be rotten when they arrive in the imperial city. The whole journey will stink, and the soldiers driving the carriage will hate you."
"Oh, I almost forgot about this."
Xu Fu laughed at himself and said: "I will leave it to them to handle this matter. At least, only the king knows how it will be done in the end."
With his own memorial, Xu Fu believed that even the adults in Dongjun would not dare not take it to heart.
After all, this is something that could lead to beheading if you are not careful.
Li Xiuyuan shook his head silently, thinking that at the inn he could ask Gao Jianli to find a guqin and play a piece of music with him while drinking.
A close friend is rare in life, and a close friend is even harder to find.
Ziqi has passed away without any sound, and Boya has stopped playing the harp since then. This is the story Li Xiuyuan heard after he entered the Three Lives and Three Worlds Stone in the Prajna Temple on Fangcun Mountain.
And the legendary Stone of Three Lives and Three Worlds has become one with his body.
And when he came to Daqin, he unexpectedly met Gao Jianli. Naturally, he didn't want to miss this story.
Regardless of whether it was high mountains and flowing water or white snow in spring, Li Xiuyuan just wanted to let go of the sky and the earth, lie under the tree in the small courtyard, hold a cup of spiritual tea, and listen to this guy play a piece of music.
While he was lost in thought, the guard driving the carriage said, "Sir, you can get off the carriage now. We'll have breakfast here."
Xu Fu opened the curtain and saw that the motorcade had stopped. It seemed that it had entered a small town and could take a rest.
Li Xiuyuan thought for a moment and said, "Buy more and take it with you to eat on the road. Don't stop during the day and go directly to Dongjun."
Xu Fu nodded and said, "That's good. Get to Dongjun as early as possible to avoid long nights and dreams."
…
Before the hour, the motorcade slowly entered the city of Dongjun.
The soldiers guarding the city saw that it was an adult from the imperial city, and someone had already brought him to the inn in the city.
Li Xiuyuan looked at Zhao Meng and said: "Take half of the brothers and Master Xu to send these gifts to the city lord's palace. I will not go anywhere at the inn."
After a day's journey, where does Li Xiuyuan think about shopping?
Gao Jianli, who was driving the carriage, handed the reins to my subordinate Zhao Meng, clapped his hands and walked towards the inn.
Xu Fu thought for a moment and said, "We'll eat when I come back. I want to have a drink."
Waving his hand, Li Xiuyuan turned around and entered the inn. As long as he was there, these children would be fine. Xu Fu had Zhao Meng following him, so nothing would happen in Dongjun.
After all, the two of them are already monks.
As a result, nearly forty guards from the imperial city rode on horses, followed by three black carriages, and slowly headed towards the city lord's palace.
Ever since the King of Qin took control of the world, no major events that made people feel frightened and uneasy had happened in Dongjun for many years.
This is a peaceful place, with no wars or banditry.
When the soldiers guarding the city explained their intention to the guards of the city lord's palace, when the governor and city lord of Dongjun came to the door and looked at Zhao Meng and Xu Fu with gloomy faces.
He was still startled because he smelled strong blood from these guards.
When Xu Fu handed over his official documents and King Qin's decree to the princess, he was shocked even though he had seen the wind and rain. He didn't expect that the special envoy sent by the imperial city was standing in front of him.
Xu Fu sighed and said slowly: "I came here, but I have something to trouble you, sir."
The county guard, who was nearly fifty years old and dressed in a green shirt, was startled and blurted out, "It's all up to your arrangements."
Xu Fu thought for a while, pointed to the three carriages behind him and said, "Please send a team of guards to send these three carriages to the imperial city for your Majesty."
"In this car?" The county guard was surprised, wondering what kind of treasure he had in mind. It was actually filled with three carriages.
Xu Fu thought for a while and said nothing, but glanced at Zhao Meng beside him.
Zhao Meng was stunned and stepped forward to report: "Here are nearly two hundred heads disguised as bandits and forbidden soldiers, as well as countless Qin slaves and weapons..."
"What...what's going on? Could it be that your Excellency was attacked on the road?"
This time it was the county governor's turn to be frightened. He knew that if something happened to the special envoy on his land, his life would probably be lost.
The law of Qin is ruthless, and the king of Qin is even more ruthless. This is something everyone knows.
Zhao Meng did not answer, but looked at Xu Fu beside him.
Xu Fu sighed and said quietly: "This matter has nothing to do with you. You can have these heads treated with lime, and then go to the king with my memorial."
The county guard was stunned and speechless when he heard this. He thought to himself, how could the special envoy be so calm and composed when he was attacked?
He couldn't even believe how this group of guards killed hundreds of imperial guardsmen who were armed with Qin slaves and dressed as bandits.
Moreover, neither the leader of the guards nor the group of guards behind Xu Fu had any expression on their faces.
How much confidence and cultivation do you have to be so calm and composed?
Xu Fu sighed and said slowly.
"I know that there are people in the Imperial City who don't want me to arrive at the seaside safely...and don't want me to fulfill the King's wish."
After a pause, Xu Fu continued: "It's just that we all survived, although two brothers died for their country last night."
The Lord Sheriff looked at the hazy sky above his head and murmured: "This is really shocking..."
Before he could finish his words, Xu Fu said again: "Who is the person who wants to kill me? I don't want to pay attention to it, but the king must want to know who they are."
With this sentence, even the Lord Sheriff in front of me was frightened to death.
The special envoy's guard is dead. They were also guards sent by King Qin. These are the people under the emperor's feet.
Thinking of this, the Sheriff said in surprise: "I feel the same way that your Excellency was attacked. I will definitely handle this matter for you and let your Majesty receive your memorial..."
After speaking, he exchanged a look with the guard behind him.
The guards of the City Lord's Mansion walked all the way over and came to the carriage not far behind Zhao Meng. They opened the curtain and stuck their heads inside.
Wow, just glanced at it.
The guy turned his head and vomited it out. He ignored the Sheriff at the moment and lay aside and kept vomiting. After a while, he tremblingly replied: "Sir..."
The guard driving the carriage shook his head, held the long knife in his hand, and reached into the carriage.
With a move of his hand, several round objects rolled out of the carriage, rolled over the bluestones on the ground, and landed at the feet of the princess.
Even the princess, who had seen life and death, couldn't help but take out a handkerchief and cover her mouth.
Looking at the heads on the ground, he sighed heavily. Since the special envoy said yes, there must be nothing wrong. He didn't even have to think about it. The last car in the car must be Qin Ruo.
He took a deep breath, looked at Xu Fu and said, "Don't worry, sir. I'll leave this matter to my subordinates."
"All the two hundred imperial troops who ambushed me are here."
Xu Fu said quietly: "I wrote it very clearly in the memorial. This is only a part of it. There are many more that have become wild ghosts in the wilderness."
Then he said to the princess who was about to vomit: "I want to rest here for a few days. I will go to the inn to rest today. If anything happens, we will talk tomorrow."
After saying that, he sealed the memorial with fire paint and handed it to the Lord Sheriff in front of him.
When Zhao Meng heard this, he looked at the heads on the ground and mocked: "These are all forbidden troops in the imperial city. Yesterday they were our brothers..."
Xu Fu glanced at him and said nothing.
When Zhao Meng saw this, he quickly shouted to a group of guards behind him: "Brothers, thank you for your hard work. Drive the carriage into the city lord's palace. Let's go back to the inn to drink and eat meat!"
The Lord Sheriff sighed and said with a wry smile: "How good you are, Sir... I can't eat anything today."
Xu Fu was amused, clapped his hands and said with a smile: "Don't mind, it's you and me. I've seen too many dead people, so I'll get used to it."
"Is it possible that they also came with several groups of people?"
The governor was finally frightened. The King of Qin knew about this, and it would be a major event to punish the three clans.
Xu Fu watched the guards drive the carriage into the city lord's palace. He thought for a while and replied, "In the end, the decision of this matter must be made by the king."
