The carriage left the prison of Tingwei's Office, and, surrounded by hundreds of soldiers and guards, headed toward the depths of the hazy night.
Just like when he came, Xiao Yu was locked in a prison, and his vision was pitch black. Only the constant shaking of his body made him feel that he still had a body, instead of just a ball of consciousness.
During this shaking, he gradually felt tired, and the consciousness that was still there gradually became blurred, and finally merged into the endless darkness, and he fell asleep again.
What he didn't know was that this convoy, guarded by more than a hundred imperial guards and Ouchi guards, was heading towards Taicheng.
What he didn't even know was that on a long street that this group of people and horses must pass through, nearly a hundred night walkers in black were ambushing on the roofs of tall buildings on both sides.
Da Xiwu was among them. He was lying on a roof with double eaves and a hill-like roof, peeping down.
Seeing more than a hundred Imperial Guards and imperial guards lined up on the long street under the eaves, guarding the prison car in the center, Da Xiwu couldn't help but feel fear.
If you rob people at this time, the risk is too great.
He could not guarantee that he and his brothers would escape unscathed. Every one of them being killed or captured would be a great loss to the Northern Dynasty.
In the failed operation last night, he had already lost forty-two precious brothers.
He originally wanted to seize Xiao Yu through tonight's action and force him to go to Luoyang, the capital of the Northern Dynasties. Perhaps only in this way can he make up for his mistakes and let the Empress Dowager Hu and Prince Qinghe help him silence the courtiers.
At this time, a light figure quietly moved to his side.
When Da Xiwu turned his head, he saw those beautiful almond-shaped eyes looking at him anxiously. They were red gauze eyes.
"Awu, when will you take action? If you don't take action, you will have no chance."
Those anxious eyes made Da Xiwu jealous and made him hate Xiao Yu even more.
He even felt that if Xiao Yu died in front of Hong Xiao now, and saw Hong Xiao crying sadly, he would feel a perverted feeling in his heart.
But this is just what he thinks. Reason tells him that living Xiao Yu is more useful to him than dead Xiao Yu.
But he had to make his heart happy, so he said sarcastically: "Do you think I don't want to save people? There are so many imperial guards and imperial guards down there, how can I save them! For your little lover from the Southern Dynasty, I will take Are all my brothers going to fight for their lives?"
There was no one else in Hongxiao's eyes, and she didn't feel much about Da Xiwu's scolding.
"You're not going to save it, are you?"
"I want to save you. Can I be saved? If you don't want to save me, why did I promise you to come out for this trip?" Da Xiwu said with a sincere look on his face, "I really don't know how that little prince allowed you to be possessed by evil spirits. , regardless of the life and death of his brothers and sisters, but only thinking about him?"
Hongxiao seemed to turn a deaf ear to Da Xiwu's words, and just said quietly: "If he can't live, I don't want to live either."
Da Xiwu was furious: "What kind of evil have you possessed? You are a spy from the Northern Dynasties and the person who painted Chunxiang's boat."
Hong Xiao shook his head: "I don't know why, I think about him every day. If he is really gone, every day of my life will be painful, and I will keep thinking about him, so it is better to die before him. I am willing to die for him."
Da Xiwu considers himself an expert in love, and he thinks he understands women very well, but he doesn't understand what is going on in Hong Xiao's mind. Is he just sleeping with that man once, and is he going to end it again?
Had he known this, Da Xiwu would have really regretted not taking advantage of the situation earlier.
"I'll save him!"
Hong Xiao suddenly stood up, his tall and fit figure standing under the moonlight.
Da Xiwu was a little dazed. When he came to his senses, the red ribbon had jumped off the eaves and landed in the center of the Forbidden Army.
"There's an assassin!"
The eunuch's shrill screams pierced the sky, and the frightened horses kept neighing.
Da Xiwu wanted to curse the Red Hommet, but when he saw the imperial army at the bottom of the small building was in chaos, he gritted his teeth and said: "Brothers, kill these island barbarians and avenge the martyred brothers!"
Many spies from the Northern Dynasties broke out and jumped into the street to fight with the imperial guards.
On the carriage, Xiao Yu was awakened by a sudden shout of death. He couldn't figure out the situation for a while, but he still remembered that the person pretending to be "Uncle Zheng Shao" warned him that if someone wanted to kill him tonight, he would definitely die.
Are those killers out there? Who ordered them and why did they come? He had no idea.
In panic, he heard Zhou Neiguan shouting: "Protect the Crown Prince of Jiangxia!"
With this sentence alone, Xiao Yu could tell that the emperor did not want to kill him for the time being, and where did those inexplicable killers come from?
Was it Zhu Yi or the Mei Chong'er whom he had never met before who wanted to kill him?
Just as he was thinking of this, Xiao Yu suddenly felt a chill in his ears, and something in the darkness brushed past his ears.
Then there was a "crash" sound, and a long crack was torn open in the thick curtain. The moonlight slanted in along the crack, allowing Xiao Yu to see clearly the situation outside.
There was fighting everywhere, and the scene was chaotic. People kept falling down, moaning and wailing under the night sky.
"Come here, protect the young prince, hurry up!"
Zhou Neiguan shouted at the top of his lungs. He rode beside the prison car and, like a loyal general, ordered the imperial troops and guards sternly.
Soon, a human wall surrounded the prison car, and Ru Lin's spear was pointed at the outside, protecting Xiao Yu in the middle.
Xiao Yu felt a little relieved. Looking at the "assassination" people, most of them had mediocre martial arts, and they didn't seem to work hard at their role as minions.
There were only a few people with more advanced martial arts who were trying hard to tear open the openings and fight their way to the prison van.
At the same time, Xiao Yu discovered that some of them actually used a wide and tough scimitar that was not a Central Plains weapon.
Xiao Yu's thoughts became even more confused, and he could no longer guess where these people came from.
It wasn't until a thin sword swept down two Forbidden Army soldiers in an instant that Xiao Yu suddenly understood who the other party was.
He was a little anxious, and when he saw Hong Xiao's figure turning and dodging in the gunfire, he was extremely worried.
At this time, several people suddenly came to Hongxiao, which relieved her a lot of pressure.
She jumped directly onto the carriage, lifted the curtain outside, lowered her head to make sure that Xiao Yu was in the carriage, and was about to use her sword to chop down the iron door of the cage.
Xiao Yu was originally sitting cross-legged in the prison car. At this time, he stood up and put his head on the top of the iron cage.
Hong Xiao slashed twice with her sword, metal and stone collided, and sparks flew everywhere. She saw Xiao Yu stood up, and continued to slash the door with her sword without leaving him.
Xiao Yu was a little anxious, not for himself, but for Hongxiao.
The Imperial Guards had calmed down from the previous chaos, and they soon gained the upper hand. Several spears were stabbed at Hong Xiao, and one shot almost hit him in the abdomen.
"What are you doing here?" Xiao Yu asked in a deep voice.
Hongxiao kept moving her hands and continued to smash the door: "Come to save you!"
"You are harming me. Don't make unnecessary sacrifices. Let your people leave immediately."
Hong Xiao glared at Xiao Yu, with anger in her eyes.
"You don't know that the emperor wants to kill you?"
"He can't kill me, don't worry, but if you really want to save me, I will definitely die."
Several spears were stabbed at Hong Xiao again, and she turned around to avoid them skillfully.
"You Southerners are really hard to understand."
"If you don't understand, just listen and leave!"
Hong Xiao still refused to leave, stubbornly fighting against the guards above the iron cage. She had broken most of the locked door open, but now she could no longer get closer to the door.
And those men in black who came to "assassinate" gradually lost their advantage, and turned around and ran away if they were slightly injured. Fortunately, the imperial guards and Ouchi guards knew what was important and did not chase them, instead protecting the prisoners in the cage. That's their responsibility.
This virtually increased the pressure on the Hung Hom side.
Suddenly a man cut a bloody path, jumped into the prison car, and came to Hongxiao. He glared at Xiao Yu fiercely.
Xiao Yu recognized the man as Da Xiwu.
He pulled Hong Xiao's arm: "Let's go quickly. If you don't leave, you will really be buried here."
Hung Hom is full of energy, and the woman's desperate energy really gives men a headache.
At this time, I heard Zhou Neiguan shout: "They are the bandit leaders, take them back and torture them!"
Xiao Yu was really anxious now. The scene in front of him was chaotic and noisy. He dared to talk to Hong Xiao in a low voice under the cover of night.
"Hongxiao, I will find a way to escape if I stay. You have to believe me. If you continue like this, it will be difficult to handle. It will harm me and yourselves."
Hong Xiao was stunned for a moment. She said nothing. The obsession in her heart should have relaxed slightly.
Xiao Yu glanced at the man in black again and said in a deep voice: "Da Xiwu, take her away!"
"You don't need to tell me!" Da Xiwu said coldly.
He grabbed the red ribbon, jumped up, and rushed out of the gun forest. This time, the red ribbon barely resisted, but looked back at Xiao Yu reluctantly.
Da Xiwu suppressed the anger in his heart. At the end, he suddenly turned around and hit something at Xiao Yu's face.
Xiao Yu hurriedly dodged, only to see that it was a flying knife, and couldn't help but be shocked.
Looking at the two people again, their bodies had submerged into the night mist in the distance.
