Chapter 5447: Tired
"Do you want the whole capital to look for him? I feel that Ning Yuan has not left the capital." Yang Ruoqing said.
Yang Ruoqing wanted to kill Ning Yuan a long time ago. That old guy is really not a good thing.
His son, Ning Yi, died a worthy death.
However, there is still a mystery about Ning Yi's death that has not been solved.
That is, who killed Ning Yi.
To this day, the investigation has still not revealed who did what happened in the first place.
At first Yang Ruoqing suspected that it was the Yuanlong organization that did it, but later it didn't feel like it.
“You don’t need to look for him all over the capital, he will appear by himself.”
Qi Xingyun said.
"That's right. On the surface, he has made no mistakes and he trusts the country. As long as it is not a crime of rebellion, no one can punish him." Yang Ruoqing said.
Even an emperor like Qi Xingyun cannot do whatever he wants.
If he takes the lead in breaking Daqi's laws, it will be the beginning of Daqi's complete collapse. This is why Qi Xingyun refuses to arrest people easily.
Ning Yuan knew that Qi Xingyun was such an emperor, so he dared to stay in the capital.
If Qi Xingyun was a tyrant who had no regard for the overall situation, then Ning Yuan would have run as far as he could.
"Put aside Ning Yuan, Lord Xin Guo. Today we need to sort out the affairs in the capital." Qi Xingyun said.
Yang Ruoqing glanced in the direction of the inner city and said, "Your Majesty, you have to deal with your housework first. Look, all the ladies have come out."
Qi Xingyun looked forward, and sure enough, Empress Zhao, Concubine Fang, Concubine Su Ziyue, and others, all surrounded by eunuchs and maids, ran out of the inner city after the city gate was opened, and headed straight towards Qi Qi. Running in the direction of Nebula.
Qi Xingyun felt that his head was a little swollen. As Yang Ruoqing said, he was quite busy with the affairs of the women in the harem.
This time, he put aside all the women in the harem and performed this scene, which must have broken the hearts of those women.
But, he had to do this.
I can only make up for it later.
"Ahem, I'll leave this to you. I'll go and see them first."
Qi Xingyun waved his whip and urged the horses to come forward, followed by his guards. , one by one, hurriedly surrounded the dangerous places around him.
"Your Majesty has gone to take care of the family affairs, let's go and capture King Lu." Yang Ruoqing looked at Luo Fengtang.
"Let's go." Luo Fengtang raised the spear in his hand and said, "You and I, as husband and wife, are of the same mind, and we will deal with King Lu today."
With the matters in the capital done, they can take a good rest.
Now is the time to finish, so naturally we have to work hard and move forward bravely.
At this time, King Lu's cavalry fought and retreated, and from time to time some were surrounded and killed.
But King Lu's cavalry is indeed powerful. The armor on their bodies is extremely protective. Ordinary bows and arrows cannot hurt them at all. They can only be dealt with by tough methods.
The so-called tough method is to use a variety of weapons to attack more and less. If you surround one person, you will beat him severely. No matter how strong the protection is, you still can't withstand it.
"King Lu, you can't run away." Luo Fengtang urged his horse forward, pointing his spear far away.
"Luo Fengtang! You alone can't stop me."
King Lu showed extremely strong martial arts. He held a spear in his hand and used it like an arm. Fighting from the east to the west, no one responds.
The direction he was heading towards was the South Gate, the south exit of the capital. "Why bother resisting? The four gates of the capital have been blocked. You can't escape." Luo Fengtang said.
"Who said I can't run away?" King Lu shouted: "Throw it!"
As King Lu stopped shouting, a row of cavalry took out a bag from their bags. A black ball was thrown to the ground with force, and a large black powdery sand mist rose up, confusing the surrounding vision.
"Stab..."
Luo Fengtang and Yang Ruoqing both tore off their clothes and covered their mouths and noses. This black powdery sand mist was obviously a poisonous gas.
"Qing'er, this poisonous gas is very powerful, and the horse can't withstand it." Luo Fengtang felt that the horse's legs were weak and unsteady.
“Get off the horse and run away, we can’t let him run away.” Yang Ruoqing decisively turned over and dismounted, covered her mouth and nose, and rushed through a cloud of black smoke. What she saw was that thousands of cavalry were divided into two parts, and one part of thousands of cavalry stayed behind. He came down and resisted the pursuing men and horses, while the others were already escorting King Lu, throwing away the heavy objects and moving quickly towards the south gate.
King Lu’s two attacks were very useful, and he stopped them.
"South Gate, why does he have to go to South Gate." Yang Ruoqing felt something was wrong.
"Is there something wrong with the guards guarding the south gate?" Luo Fengtang's face turned serious.
"The ones guarding the south gate are the Storm Guards. Logically speaking, there should be no problem with the Storm Guards."
Yang Ruoqing vaguely felt that she had gone astray. Maybe the Storm Guards who seemed to be fine were actually the ones with problems. .
The more than a thousand cavalry who blocked the cavalry did not hold back for too long. After a while, they all fell to the ground. After all, there was a big gap in numbers, and they couldn't do anything despite their best efforts.
However, their goal of fighting to the death to delay time has been achieved.
King Lu has gone to the south gate with the remaining people!
When Yang Ruoqing and Luo Fengtang arrived at the south gate with many people, they only saw the south gate wide open and empty.
"There is a problem with the Storm Guard!" Yang Ruoqing couldn't help but sigh.
After all, the success fell short.
I didn’t expect that there would be such a powerful strategist in King Lu’s sect. At the most unfavorable time, he could still have a hand in allowing King Lu to escape.
If he thought he had a winning chance and exposed the Storm Guard in advance, it would be impossible to save his life at this time.
"Maybe the Kuangfeng Guards have ceased to be part of the imperial army a long time ago. They are so powerful. They use the imperial court's money to support their own soldiers," Luo Fengtang said.
"This Imperial Guard is really useless. As an army to protect the royal family, it is stationed in the capital, but it is penetrated like a sieve." Yang Ruoqing said.
This incident was mainly the fault of the first two emperors. Although Qi Xingyun was less responsible, it also reflected his lack of control over the power of the capital.
Fortunately, after this planning, the rotten flesh that has appeared has been removed as soon as possible, and the remaining ones can be sorted out.
"Forget it, just run away. We tried our best." Yang Ruoqing felt deeply tired.
For a while, she had tried her best for this series of plans, but she was really tired.
"Qing'er, the New Year is coming soon. Let's go back to Changping Village in a while. Although the capital is prosperous, it is not as good as the village." Luo Fengtang smiled slightly.
"Then let's go back and recover. The matter in the capital is over, and there won't be any more big disturbances." Yang Ruoqing said.
The others are still chasing out along the south gate. Whether they can catch them is another matter, but it is impossible to watch King Lu escape.
However, Yang Ruoqing and Luo Fengtang rode back to the residence of Marquis Zhongyong...
It was already late at night, and the servants in the Hou Mansion were waiting for their return.
This night, they lingered for a long time until dawn...
