As the capital of Otsutsuki, the capital was crowded with people from all directions and prosperous. Naturally, the roads leading to the capital also extended in all directions, with all roads leading directly to the capital.
Near noon, there was a group of people driving slowly on the official road in the south. Their target was the direction of the capital. After climbing another mountain, they could see the capital in the distance.
The two carriages, with some attendants and some guards, were not moving very fast. At first glance, they looked like ordinary family members traveling. Only when you get closer will you notice the difference.
Eight strong and powerful men, all dressed in neat short clothes, each with a weapon on their waist, their eyes sharp, staring at all directions vigilantly, riding horses to closely guard the first carriage. .
The rest of the entourage, although walking, looked ordinary, but they were not ordinary. The pace of one line after another, each step is the same size, and each step is silent. This is a charm that is different from ordinary people.
It can be seen that this is a well-trained team.
Zhang Gui squatted half-crouched in the grass that had just grown in the New Year, pushing aside the weeds in front of him and staring at the official road ahead, his small eyes glowing green.
Slowly waiting for this group of people to appear in sight.
Zhang Gui was so happy that he ordered his followers in a low voice: "According to the plan, the Liu family's people are entangled with the guard Dou. You can grab the carriage and run away. I'll be waiting for you in front. Remember, don't get hurt." Don't touch the people in the carriage with a finger, or I will kill you."
"Don't worry, young master, we all understand." One of the attendants responded with a smile, and several others followed suit, with improper smiles on their faces. The young master wanted a hero to save the beauty, and they were just there to serve as foils.
"Keep an eye on the Liu family. Don't let them get their ideas wrong and spoil my good deeds. If one of you is captured, do you know what to do?" Zhang Gui said sternly, staring at several people.
"Young ladies understand, we are sent here by the Liu family. Master Liu loves Princess Jinghe and ordered us to snatch the princess and take her back."
"Yes." Zhang Gui nodded with satisfaction. He was fully prepared for this matter. If it didn't work out, he would just throw dirty water on Liu Yile.
After a lot of warnings, several people finally got the order to meet up with the Liu family and wait for the opportunity.
Zhang Gui stared at the carriage and smiled as if he was determined to win. He was determined to get the horse.
Among Liu Yile's playboys, Zhang Gui had the most clever ideas and the most flexible mind. However, these were all used in crooked ways and often gave Liu Yile and the others some insidious ideas.
Now, he has set his sights on Princess Jinghe.
Princess Jinghe is the youngest daughter of the late emperor. Her biological mother died in childbirth when she was born, and she has been raised by the queen mother. After the late emperor passed away, the queen mother moved to Yuquan Palace on the outskirts of Gyeonggi to recuperate. Princess Jinghe followed her there to serve her, and she stayed there for six years. Now that Princess Jinghe and her hairpin are about to arrive, she will return to the palace in advance to prepare for her hairpin wedding. At that time, Concubine Liu will preside over the wedding ceremony on behalf of the Queen.
Now the Ministry of Etiquette was already preparing the matter of the princess and her hairpin. The reason why he knew that Princess Jinghe could return to Beijing today was entirely due to the fact that there was an elder brother in the family who was on duty in front of the emperor.
After learning about this, he came up with this plan. First, he made a plan for Liu Yile to deal with Xiao Ming, and borrowed ten guards from Liu.
Zhang Gui's mind has always been clear. He can understand where he is and how much he weighs. He failed in his studies, had no academic achievements, and was not valued by his parents at home. He understood that the reason why he was able to become famous in the capital was entirely because of the family power behind him. If one day, the family separated and lived in another country, most of the family property would be After returning to his eldest brother, his good days will come to an end.
If he is not successful in writing or martial arts, who will remember Zhang Gui?
Studying is too tiring, and fame is difficult.
If you want to be rich and prosperous for the rest of your life, it is better to take shortcuts.
Princess Shang, reach the sky in one step.
Zhang Gui didn't waste any time, turned around and went to the designated place.
Here, the motorcade was forced to stop not long after walking.
The leader of the guard looked at the big tree lying on the roadside in front of him and thought deeply. There was no one around, so how did the giant tree come to block the road?
"Be on guard." The leader shouted, and then ordered three guards and three followers to move the tree away.
There was a crack in the carriage door, and the beautiful girl looked at the outside world through the crack. Her face was beautiful and soft, but too pale. Her big black eyes were like a pool of autumn water, and her slightly curled eyelashes moved gently, with curiosity. His eyes were staring outside tightly.
This is Princess Jinghe.
Princess Jinghe was born prematurely and was born with deficiencies. Even at the age of hair, she looked smaller and thinner than her peers. She has been raised in Yuquan Palace since she was a child. Today, when she returns to the palace, she only wears light clothes and does not have the honor of a princess.
The big tree was moved away bit by bit. Before he could relax, more than ten people rushed out from the side road. They moved quickly and went straight to the carriage Princess Jinghe was riding. Its purpose can be imagined. .
The people in the carriage were frightened and closed the opened door in a panic.
"Enemy attack." The commander glared, roared, and pulled out his sword with a clatter. He didn't even shout out the words "Protect the princess."
By calling out the princess's identity, doesn't it expose the target and put the princess in danger?
Everyone knows that these people come with bad intentions. Otherwise, how could there be robbers and gangsters in this heavily guarded place in the capital?
The visitor did not give the guards a chance to breathe. They rushed up and started fighting with them. They said, "I built this mountain and cut this tree. If you want to live this life, I will leave money to buy the road!" 's opening remarks.
Their purpose was very clear, which was to rob the carriage.
The followers were so frightened that they screamed and ran for cover. The three guards who had gone to remove the obstacle also quickly ran back to support, but these were not enough.
The soldiers were fighting hand to hand, and the guard leader was anxious. These people had weapons in hand, their force was not weak, and their numbers were superior. Sooner or later, their side would be defeated.
He had no choice but to wink at the other subordinates repeatedly, change his tactics, fight and retreat, and retreat to the carriage, hoping to protect the carriage and break out of the siege.
After all, the safety of the princess is related to the lives and fortunes of all of them.
I thought it was just a simple escort, but it turned into a head-turning one.
However, things didn't go his way.
Two more people rushed out from the grass nearby and ran straight to the carriage. While the guards were entangled, they caught the driver unawares and kicked the driver, grabbed the carriage and ran away from the road next to them.
The carriage moved very fast and was out of sight in the blink of an eye.
"girl!"
The leader of the guard became anxious, slashed the enemies around him with his sword, and chased after him.
The carriage was speeding rapidly. Princess Jinghe in the carriage could not move. She was thrown against the wall of the carriage. Her head was hit so hard that her eyes were filled with tears. Her pale face became even more pale and bloodless.
She had to endure the pain and tightly hold on to the protective wall in the carriage to barely stabilize her body.
More than the pain, there was unprecedented fear. Fear made her heart beat like thunder, almost bursting out of her heart, and she screamed loudly and uncontrollably.
Fortunately, she still has some sense and knows what she should do now.
Jing He pulled out the golden hairpin on his head and held it tightly in his hand.
Jinghe looked at the man's back and moved slowly towards the car door. His tightly clasped lips turned from white to bright red. The joints of the hand holding the golden hairpin turned white. The palm of his hand was already wet and greasy. The dignity of the royal princess cannot be desecrated.
Behind the carriage, the guard leader had already caught up with him, shouting in a breathless voice: "Stop!"
The carriage did not stop, but one of them jumped off the horse to entangle with it. The people coming were not weak, and it would not take a moment for the leader to get rid of it. He could only watch the carriage disappear from sight.
The remaining man drove the carriage forward. The door opened and closed, making a clanging sound. It was already overwhelmed, and finally, half of the door flew out under the force of gravity.
After several ups and downs, it rolled over at the feet of the pretending boy.
