The Crown Princess is reborn and returns to subvert the world

Chapter 373: People kneeling in plain clothes

"The child is still young, and you have great filial piety. Don't get too close to the child." Jixiang quickly pushed Tian Muyu away, "Go to the front. I'll have someone tell you if anything happens."

As soon as he heard that his filial piety would affect his children, Tian Muyu jumped out of the carriage and flew on the horse.

"Is it okay if I talk to you like this?" Tian Muyu ran out a few steps away and turned around to ask Jixiang.

Jixiang waved his hand and told him to leave quickly.

Tian Muyu then reluctantly rode forward and rode forward.

Because Emperor Li Kang's coffin was present, the procession was extraordinarily long, several miles long in front and back.

After Tian Muyu left for about half an hour, Jixiang suddenly felt a little flustered, so he called to Guard Li who was assigned to guard Jixiang, "Guard Li."

Guard Li arrived immediately.

"Is something happening outside?"

Guard Li was confused, looked back and forth, and shook his head, "Everything is normal."

Ji Xiang thought deeply for a while and signaled to Guard Li, "Be careful and tell me if anything happens."

"Yes, Princess!" Guard Li then winked at the guards on both sides of the carriage. Everyone was already very wary, but now they were even more cautious.

The auspicious carriage was in the middle of the queue. Because the queue was too long, Guard Li really didn't know what happened in front of him.

At this time, in front of the team, a large number of people dressed in plain clothes were kneeling. They occupied the entire road. At a glance, there were no less than a thousand people.

Tian Muyu got the news and quickly came to the front, "Who are you and why are you kneeling on the road?!"

The leader, a man in his forties or fifties, raised his head, his face heavily stained with tears.

"We are all officials of the Great Holy Dynasty. Thanks to the great love of the late emperor, we are able to serve as officials and work for the people. When we heard that the late emperor passed away, we came here to see him off." As he spoke, he burst into tears and was heartbroken.

"Everyone is considerate. I, Tian Muyu, would like to thank you all on behalf of the Emperor. Please get up," Tian Muyu said.

At this time, Tian Muqiong also rushed over and frowned as he looked at the official who spoke.

When Tian Muyu saw that the officials did not move, he then said, "Since they are all local officials, please get up. Father will know that you are loyal." Tian Muyu once again motioned to the officials to stand down.

However, no one moved.

Tian Muqiong was a little dissatisfied and stepped forward, "Since we have seen the emperor's coffin, let's get out of the way. The emperor has to return to Beijing."

Unexpectedly, the so-called official at the head suddenly stood up and suddenly arrived in front of Tian Muqiong, and controlled Tian Muqiong at once.

The other people kneeling on the road also stood up, each holding a long sword.

The sword was sharp and cold.

Tian Muyu was stunned for a moment, then jumped up, retreated a few feet away, and landed at the front of the team.

Tian Muqiong panicked, "What are you going to do? What are you going to do? Fourth brother, save me."

However, as soon as Tian Muqiong finished speaking, those people rushed towards the coffin team and started killing with all their strength. Tian Muyu and the soldiers in front fought hard.

For a moment, long swords flew and blood spattered on the spot.

The soldiers at the back of the team saw the chaos in front and came to support one after another.

When Guard Li got the news, the fighting was already fierce.

"Princess, Your Majesty, they seem to be in trouble!" Xiong Er approached the carriage and reported quickly.

"Send someone to the front immediately to check the situation. Where are Guard Li and the others?"

"You haven't come back yet, so you may have encountered trouble. Princess, don't worry, we will protect you and the children." Xiong Er immediately ordered, "Protect the princess and the children!"

After saying that, he arranged for a soldier to go to the front to investigate the situation.

As soon as the soldier left, the remaining guards immediately entered a state of combat readiness, looking around vigilantly in anticipation of a surprise attack.

Ni Xia's deep eyes wrinkled slightly, and she moved her body to block the entrance of the carriage.

In the carriage, Ji Xiang frowned and looked at several sleeping children.

At this time, Aunt Yu and several wet nurses came over in a hurry.

"Princess, what happened up front? Why did the motorcade suddenly stop leaving?" The car curtain opened, and Grandma Yu didn't look too worried.

She looked at the three children with a bright smile, "It's okay to stop for a while, just in time for a break, otherwise you and the children will be tired, Princess." Then she turned back to the three wet nurses and said, "The children are still asleep. You go back to the carriage first."

After the three nannies left, Grandma Yu opened the curtain again. This time, there was obvious worry on her face.

"Did something happen up front?!"

Just as he finished speaking, Xiong Er suddenly shouted, "Protect the princess and the child!"

Then the sound of swords clashing was heard.

Just as Grandma Yu was about to turn back to check, Ji Xiang pulled her into the carriage and said, "Mammy, take care of the children!" She got out of the carriage with that.

Sure enough, several people in plain clothes were flying past the guards and flying towards the carriage.

At first glance, it seemed that he was coming for Jixiang's carriage.

Just when they were about to land on the carriage carriage with a tap of their feet, Ji Xiang pushed out with his palms.

The strong palm force and the strong wind knocked those people dressed in plain clothes away, and they fell into the grass. They immediately vomited blood, and no one could get up again.

Jixiang floated down and landed in front of one of them, "Who is it?!"

There was a sneer on the corner of the man's mouth and he didn't want to answer.

"Don't want to say it?!" Ji Xiang said coldly, then knelt down and looked at the man with stern eyes, "If you don't say anything, you won't be the only one who dies."

As she spoke, she pulled off a jade pendant worn on the man's chest and held it tightly in her hand.

Everything about the man appeared in front of Jixiang in an instant.

She could once again see things about the owner of the object through the object.

"Li He, the eldest son of the family, is from the capital. He lives in Maoer Hutong. He has an old mother and a wife and four children at home. His younger brother works in the Royal Forest Army..."

The man looked at Ji Xiang in shock, as if he was seeing a monster.

"You, how do you know my situation?" He spat out a mouthful of blood, feeling inexplicably panicked.

"Hmph, don't you want to tell me who you are? If you don't tell me, I will find out by myself later..."

"I said, I said, we are all members of the National Defense Army..."

Ji Xiang frowned, "Who is in charge of the National Protectorate Army?"

Xiong Er also looked very ugly, "The National Guard Army is the army of the great eunuch Cui Hao. They have been stationed in Shaanxi. In recent years, they have rarely left Shaanxi without the emperor's holy order."

"So this time they went south under the emperor's order?" Jixiang then asked the man, "Who sent you here?"

"The small ones are just a hundred households, taking orders from a thousand households."

Ji Xiang didn't bother to ask any more questions. He stood up and looked at the front of the team. Seeing that those in plain clothes were gradually at a disadvantage, he breathed a sigh of relief.

"General Xiong, please deal with these people. They were moving a bit too much just now, and they seem to have injured themselves," Ji Xiang said and walked towards the carriage.

He also casually dealt with a person who had just passed by and wanted to attack the carriage.

When Ji Xiang arrived at the carriage, he saw Ni Xia carrying a person in front of him, "Miss, this person has a high status."

Good luck.
