Brocade tears

Chapter 116 Duanyang Tribulation

The carriage is very comfortable to ride, the four wheels run smoothly, and the horses pulling the cart are strong and powerful.Four-wheeled carriages are generally used for transporting goods. In addition, the carriages are indeed wider than ordinary passenger carriages. The walls of the carriages look dusty and muddy. If only from the appearance, it is easy to mistake this carriage as a truck.But the luxury and comfort in the carriage can only be enjoyed by the people inside the carriage, which can clearly show the character and attitude of the owner of the carriage.

The carriage was traveling leisurely on the street at a slow speed, but this leisurely movement was just a disguise. The passengers in the carriage were anxious, helpless, tired and painful.Ban Ruhua had already passed out, and Meng Kuang and Guo Dayou were tortured by the pain, so they could only lean against the wall of the carriage in a relatively comfortable posture, taking a moment to rest.

The owner of the carriage took the kettle on the side, facing the copper basin, washed the blood on his hands with the warm water in it, and then wiped his hands with a clean white cloth.She didn't know when she took out a burlap bag from the bottom of the car seat, put all the blood cloth used for the wound treatment, and hid it together with the medicine box under the seat at the bottom of the car.She didn't move the copper basin containing the bloody water, it was placed in the center of the carriage floor.

With the slight bumps brought by the carriage, the blood in the copper basin was also swaying.The owner of the carriage looked at this scene in a daze, and didn't make a sound for a long time.It was Guo Dayou who broke the silence:

"If you dare to ask your benefactor's name, I will remember it in my heart and answer it in the next day."

"Guo Qianhu doesn't know me, but I do know Guo Qianhu." The owner of the carriage smiled, "When I entered Beijing five years ago, Guo Qianhu served as the leader of my guard once, but I always In the veil of gauze, you can't see clearly."

Guo Dayou was stunned for a moment, and then finally realized who the person in front of him was. He hurriedly cupped his hands and bowed, "I don't know if it was Princess Xinyang who came to rescue me. I'm really rude."

Zhu Qingpei waved his hand and said with a smile: "Guo Qianhu, don't be rude, this is what I don't want to see. Although I am a member of the clan, my status is very low in the clan after all, and I don't have much right to speak. To you Jin Yiwei Said, my clan is actually no different from ordinary people."

Guo Dayou didn't respond to her words, but instead asked: "Dare to ask the princess, why did you come to rescue us? Do you know who we have been chasing and killing, and if you act so rashly, are you not afraid of revenge? "This question is asked to the top, and it is indeed the question that Guo Dayou is most concerned about at the moment. It is hard to feel at ease if you don't ask it.

Princess Xinyang thought for a moment, as if she didn't know how to answer this question for a while.She cast her eyes on the fainting Ban Ruhua, then looked at Meng Kuang, and laughed as if mocking herself:

"Of course I know who hunted you down. I just came out of Gu's mansion where he was temporarily staying and witnessed him ordering to hunt you down. My uncle, who has always been willful, he will treat you two Jin Yiwei's relentless pursuit really made me too curious. What did you guys do? Offended him so thoroughly? I'm a very kind-hearted person with strong mobility, and I do what I say. Yes, without any hesitation.

In fact, I have never met you before. This girl Ban Ruhua, I met once last night.This little brother...is his name Meng Shisan?I've only heard her name, but never met her.It's the same with you Guo Qianhu, I haven't even met and talked with you.I haven't considered any kind of enmity, so it's okay to prevent him from finding out?Even if I can't hide it from him and let him know, can he still attack me, the princess of the clan?Even if he really dared to attack me, I saved you now, didn't I also find a guard for myself?Sigh, you guys will protect me, right? You can't just abandon me. "

"Princess, please don't worry, if we really can escape this catastrophe, we will never forget the great kindness of the princess, and we will protect the princess in the future." Guo Dayou said quickly.

"That's good, then it's convenient for me to ask, why did he chase you down?" Princess Xinyang asked.

"This..." Guo Dayou looked at Meng Kuang, who lowered his eyes, apparently not intending to tell Princess Xinyang what happened.Guo Dayou said helplessly, "Princess, please forgive me, there are some things that you still don't know."

Princess Xinyang probably knew that he would get such an answer, so he said the words he had thought about a long time ago:

"Now that I have saved you, it is tantamount to enmity with my uncle. He will definitely doubt my motives for saving you, and he will definitely tie me to you. What you know means that I know What, this suspicion can't be washed away. If that's the case, why can't I know? I think I should be entitled to know."

"Princess... this..." Guo Dayou made a mistake. The fewer people should know about this matter, the better. The grievances between the Bai family and King Lu in the past are really not something that can be done at will. Tell people things.Princess Xinyang can be regarded as the clan after all, if she is told about such scandals, it is hard to guarantee that she will not have other thoughts in order to protect the face and interests of the clan.Guo Dayou is also unwilling to take this risk.

"Okay, don't rush, anyway, there will be plenty of time in the future." Princess Xinyang seemed very confident, and then said, "Let's talk about the next escape route. I also have some masters under my command, and I will let them follow you all the way." Those who chased and killed you found you. Now three of my men pretended to be you, and painted pig blood on their bodies. They rode that horse and led the pursuers away. Only then can I drive the carriage to pick you up You run away. I saw you all the way north, and I know you are going to the Shence Gate, do you still have companions at the Shence Gate?"

Guo Dayou looked at Meng Kuang and asked, "Ms. Bai and Ms. Sui'er are both at Shence Gate?"

Meng Kuang nodded in affirmation.

"That day, I followed your escape route all the way to the shore of Xuanwu Lake. Seeing that your chariots and horses fell into the lake, but no one was there, I guessed that you might have sneaked into the city quietly. Where have you been spending the past few days? Is there someone in the city to take care of you?" Guo Dayou couldn't help asking.

Meng Kuang thought for a while, if he told Guo Dayou that there was no one in the city to pick him up these days, it would be very unreliable.She thought to herself, maybe the second brother would find a way to avoid Guo Dayou, and he might not see the second brother when he arrived at the Shence Gate in a while.So I wrote the word "Tangshu" on the wall of the carriage, gesturing to explain that I have a distant Tangshu in Nanjing City, and it was because of his care these days that I was able to hide and breathe.

"Your family still has a cousin in Nanjing?" Guo Dayou was a little surprised, "Why didn't you mention it to me?"

Meng Kuang explained again, saying that her cousin was loose by nature, liked to travel around, lived in no fixed place, and was not close to their family at all.She didn't expect that he would be in Nanjing City, but she just went to the house in Nanjing City mentioned in his letter with the mentality of trying her luck, and happened to meet him at home.Then she went on to explain why she followed Guo Dayou: She said that her cousin used to be an officer and soldier of the Nanjing City Defense Army, and after retiring from the army, she still had a good relationship with some mid-level officers of the City Defense Army.After he defected to his uncle, he used his relationship to inquire about the news of Guo Dayou's entry into the city from the city defense army, and then tracked down Tong Butou.But he didn't expect that when he was going to look for Tong Butou today, he heard that he had entered Gu's mansion, so Meng Kuang lurked outside and followed him, and then he saw Guo Dayou and Zhou Bayang following Tong Butou who came out from Gu's mansion. She followed behind to figure out Tong Butou's purpose of entering Gu's residence, so she didn't show up in time.Unexpectedly, she ran into Ban Ruhua whom she hadn't seen for many years by a strange coincidence. Ban Ruhua thought she was on a mission, and deliberately came forward to help her cover it up.As a result, he encountered Tong Butou's rebellion and was involved in it.

Meng Kuang's rhetoric is self-explanatory. Although some links in it are not very clear and Guo Dayou is not completely convinced, it is indeed the true story of what happened, excluding individual details.Guo Dayou nodded to express his understanding, while Meng Kuang was exhausted due to a series of sign language and written instructions, and he leaned weakly against the wall of the carriage, unwilling to speak any more.

"So, Ruhua didn't see me, she saw you, that's why she followed all the way. This girl... still misses you until now. For her this time, she was really involved in chaos for no reason. However, she has been exposed in front of King Lu, if she is still left alone in Nanjing, there is no guarantee that King Lu will not trouble her. She has to leave Nanjing, and we have to protect her." Guo Dayou shook his head and sighed road.

Meng Kuang also knew that Ban Ruhua was not safe anymore, but this time they came out to do missions, and they brought more and more people with them. In addition, they were hunted down by King Lu, and the situation became more and more difficult, and it was really unsustainable .She had to find a way to settle the people around her, otherwise how could they go on missions with peace of mind?

"Let me interject, where are you going?" Princess Xinyang asked.

"Meng Shisan and I came out this time with the intention of going to Yuhang on a mission. But we never thought that we would be hunted down by King Lu here in Nanjing, with family members by our side. This is really... desperate." Guo Dayou said.

"Yuhang... How about this, I planned to go to Yuhang this time, you just follow me. I have a mansion in Hangzhou, and your family members will settle in my mansion, especially Ban Niang, she was seriously injured, You must settle down and take care of your wounds." Princess Xinyang said.

"How embarrassing..." Guo Dayou was about to speak, but was interrupted by Princess Xinyang raising his hand:

"Guo Qianhu, don't say anything. Since I have rescued you, it is natural to save people to the end and send Buddha to the west. Besides, I am still very interested in your affairs. I don't know the whole picture. I won't stop. Hahaha, and do you have a better choice right now?"

Guo Dayou knew that Princess Xinyang gave the best option, he and Meng Kuang glanced at each other, and the two bowed their hands together to Lord Xinyang, Guo Dayou said gratefully:

"Thank you, princess, for your generous help. I am very grateful."

……

About two quarters of an hour later, Princess Xinyang's carriage finally arrived near Shence Gate.At this time, the place was already full of people arranged by Lu Wang, who were checking the people who left the city one by one.This time was the peak time of going out of the city before noon, and there was already a long line of cars, horses and people going out of the city.Princess Xinyang's carriage did not dare approach the bottom of the city gate, and stopped in an inconspicuous alleyway near the city gate.This zealous princess needs to discuss with Guo Dayou and Meng Kuang what to do next.

"My uncle reacted very quickly. Seeing you running all the way north, I knew that you might be planning to use the Shence Gate to leave the city. Now the number of people searching the Shence Gate has obviously doubled. We won't be able to get out for a while. Yes. You are all injured, I will send my coachman to look for your family members nearby, tell the coachman how many members of your family members there are, and what are their characteristics." Princess Xinyang said.

Guo Dayou then said to the driver outside: "There are five of them in total, four women and one man. The man has a white face and no beard, looks handsome, and has a shrill voice. The other four women are all very beautiful, and one of them is a Hu-Han hybrid with brown hair. , Amber eyes, the appearance is very special."

Meng Kuang patted Guo Dayou and added with gestures: They should have taken a carriage.Then he handed the purse Sui Er made for her to the coachman as a token.

The coachman got such a detailed description, took his purse, got out of the carriage, and went to look for people who fit these characteristics.

After the coachman left, Princess Xinyang said again: "After we find your family members, whether we can go out of the city today or not depends on the situation. If the search for Shence Gate doesn't relax, we will definitely not be able to go out today. , we can only wait for the opening of the city at the Dragon Boat Festival tomorrow. If we can’t get out tonight, we’ll make it up in the carriage.”

"I'm really sorry for causing trouble to the princess." Guo Dayou said embarrassedly.

"It's what I want, so why are you so polite." Princess Xinyang raised the curtain of the car and looked at the city gate, and suddenly said a meaningful sentence:

"If you can escape, it will be a good thing for me."
