The next day, around noon, the streets were crowded with people.

People craned their necks to look somewhere until they saw a long line of people.

There were soldiers holding spears leading the way in front and behind the team, and there were also soldiers on the left and right to block the crowd of onlookers.

In the front middle of the team, a prison van was driving slowly.

The prison van is a simple carriage pulled by two horses, and the body of the carriage is a huge rectangular cage.

The cage is made of vertical wooden structures, and the door is firmly locked with a dark chain.

Inside the cage stood a thin man.

The man was wearing prison clothes, his hands and feet were shackled, and his head was completely covered by a black cloth bag, making it impossible to see the area above his neck, let alone his true appearance.

But no one suspected that someone had lied about this matter. They just whispered to each other, lamenting that the prime minister who once held great power had fallen to this point.

Somewhere in the crowd, Lu Xiuyuan and his wife followed the tide of people towards the vegetable market. Two pairs of sharp eyes kept patrolling the surroundings, as if they were spying on something.

"You said... Will Ye Beimo really come to rob the prison van?" Xia Younan asked in a low voice as they walked.

Lu Xiuyuan replied, "I don't know, but whether he comes or not, it will benefit us in every way. If he doesn't come, Ye Baijiang will die! If he comes, not only will Ye Baijiang die, but he won't be able to escape unscathed either.

"The prince who came to seek peace kidnapped his own country's death row prisoners, which gave us a good excuse."

"What's the reason?"

Lu Xiuyuan looked at her and said with an arrogant smile: "Send troops and swallow up Zhujing Kingdom!"

Xia Younan was shocked, and couldn't help swallowing when she saw his eyes full of ambition.

I have to say that this guy is ambitious and has a big appetite, and is more suitable to be the emperor than Lu Shian.

"Hey, why do you think Ye Baijiang covered his head with a cloth? Is he afraid of seeing people?" Xia Younan looked at the people in the prison car and murmured in confusion.

Lu Xiuyuan's eyes also showed a trace of doubt, and he guessed: "Maybe that old thief is too proud and doesn't want to face the eyes of the world."

"Oh, are you all ready? If he really comes, can you handle it?"

Lu Xiuyuan looked at the soldiers surrounding the prison van and smiled meaningfully, "That depends on Lu Shian's ability."

The execution team marched for another quarter of an hour. Suddenly, there was the sound of fireworks exploding, and a touch of color appeared in the blue sky.

Almost at the same time, dozens of onlookers suddenly stood up, drew their swords and knives, and rushed towards the prison van.

The people were frightened by this sudden change and screamed and fled in panic, while the executioners all drew their weapons, calmly formed a circle to protect the prison van and faced the assassins who were rushing towards them.

The battle was about to break out, and the two gangs soon fought each other.

The assassins used all their skills, each move was fierce and each strike of the sword was ruthless.

However, they didn't expect that those officers and soldiers were no ordinary people. They were not at all panicked when faced with such a vicious trick. The collision of weapons prevented the group of people from getting close.

"Oh my god, these soldiers are amazing. They are so calm and seem to be able to handle the situation with ease." Xia Younan praised in amazement.

I thought these soldiers were just cannon fodder who only knew how to use cold weapons, but I didn't expect that they seemed to be skilled in martial arts.

Lu Xiuyuan seemed to have known everything for a long time. He watched the battle situation but smiled without saying a word.

The battle gradually reached a fever pitch, and none of the assassins was able to break through the siege and get close to the prison van, but they also tied down the officers and soldiers, preventing them from escaping and taking care of other things.

Someone in the crowd seized the opportunity, and suddenly a masked man in black jumped up from the ground, using his superior lightness skills to cross the fighting circle and leapt straight to the side of the cage of the prison van.

With a wave of his long arm and the knife falling, the iron chain locking the cage door fell off.

He quickly opened the cell door, deftly cut off the chains on Ye Baijiang's hands and feet, and rushed out with him, "Follow me!"

"Bang!" Before he could finish his words, someone slapped him hard on the back, causing him to stagger and almost fall down in pain.

Ye Beimo was horrified and quickly shook off the person behind him, looking back in fear.

When he saw this, his eyes were bloodshot.

The man in prison uniform was not Ye Baijiang at all. He was clearly a completely unfamiliar man.

The man had dark skin and was extremely strong. From the high bulge in his temple, it could be seen that he was definitely a martial arts practitioner with strong skills.

"You... who are you?" He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth from the slap just now, stepped back and asked coldly.

The man smiled coldly, did not answer him, and swung his long legs and kicked him in the face.

Ye Beimo's alarm bells rang, and he immediately took action to meet the enemy, and started a fierce fight with the man.

"Qin Chong?" Xia Younan pointed at the man in prison uniform in the crowd and was so shocked that he almost bit his tongue.

"Lu Xiuyuan, that's Qin Chong, the commander of the Imperial Guards! How could it be him? Where's Ye Baijiang?"

Lu Xiuyuan also frowned in confusion, "I don't know either, what is Lu Shian doing? How did Ye Baijiang become Qin Chong?"

The battle became more and more intense. Just when the two sides were fighting to a standstill, hundreds of soldiers suddenly emerged from all directions.

They were armed with swords and guns, and their bodies were agile and they swarmed towards Ye Beimo with murderous intent.

Ye Beimo was so frightened when he saw this situation that even if he was stupid, he knew that he had been ambushed.

Before he could react, the troops had already arrived. The people he led were no match for the four, and were quickly wiped out at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"Ye Qiandai!" Ye Beimo squeezed out three words from between his teeth, and his angry eyes seemed to be able to burst out sparks.

"Swoosh!" There was a sound of breaking air, and while he was stunned, Qin Chong's hard fist came straight to his face with lightning speed.

Ye Beimo couldn't defend himself and dodged by tilting his head, but Qin Chong took the opportunity to twist his fist into a palm and ripped off his mask.

Lushan's true face was undoubtedly exposed, and Ye Beimo's face was full of despair. He clearly realized what this meant.

"Damn it!" The fear of being exposed turned into tremendous anger. He leaped up and swung his knife towards Qin Chong's head.

Qin Chong was not vague either. He held the sword horizontally and pushed him back with force.

Ye Beimo attacked ruthlessly. When his attack failed, he turned his wrist and slashed at his lower abdomen, determined to make his stomach burst and his intestines spill out.

Unexpectedly, Qin Chong was very good at Qinggong. He jumped lightly and landed steadily behind him. Taking advantage of the cushioning of landing, he suddenly squatted down and stabbed Ye Beimo's calf with his knife.

Ye Beimo turned around, raised his sword from bottom to top, and deflected Qin Chong's sword. The tip of the sword suddenly turned and swung towards Qin Chong's neck.

Qin Chong was not in a hurry. He kept turning his wrist to block Ye Beimo's fast and fierce sword, and kept taking steps backwards.

The two were evenly matched, and the fight was fierce and hard to separate. Every move and style was brilliant, thrilling and dangerous, and no one within dozens of meters around dared to approach.

Xia Younan was really enjoying the sight. He clapped his hands in amazement and kept making exclamations.

"Amazing, awesome, so exciting, the duel between masters was lightning fast, I have only seen this kind of scene on TV before, it is so shocking to see it with my own eyes.

"There really is Qinggong. Look at Ye Beimo, he flew as soon as he said he would. He was so handsome. Qin Chong was also great. His moves were fast and fierce."
