Chapter 2539 Escape in panic

As dawn approached, a breeze suddenly blew by, and a light rain began to fall.

The moon was obscured by clouds, and the dark sky seemed to be rushing in, giving people a strong sense of oppression. The rain was pouring and the breeze was blowing, making it cool.

A group of knights galloped on the official road in the wind and rain.

The torches had long been extinguished by the rain. Although the rain was not heavy, it gradually caused water to accumulate on the official road. The horses' hooves splashed muddy water when they stepped on it, making it look quite hasty.

The Wei River beside Guan Road on the left was flowing surgingly in the dark night, with the sound of horse hooves rushing. The group of knights left Chang'an City from the Golden Light Gate and headed westward.

There are several roads from Chang'an to Longxi. The most common one is to cross the Weishui River and then go northwest out of Xiaoguan. Through Xiaoguan Road, go straight to the Lanzhou Dudu Mansion and enter Longxi County; the other is to cross the Weishui River. Turn and go west out of Dashanguan, take Longguan Road, pass Wugong and Fengxiang Mansion, and go straight to Longxi.

Logically speaking, it is closer to take the north road Xiaoguan Road, but the mountain roads are quite winding and winding, making it difficult for horses to speed up. Longguan Road, on the other hand, is spacious and flat near the Weishui River mainland, which is suitable for horses to travel quickly.

These Guanlong children caused trouble in Chang'an City and were scolded and reprimanded by each family. At this moment, they were in a panic. They only knew that they had to rush to Longxi as quickly as possible and hide in their own territory, otherwise they would be The court caught them, and the crime of beating the prince and the prince was enough to send them into the army and be sent to the army...

So we can only take Longguan Road.

Fortunately, the guards at various checkpoints on this road were all Guanlong children. When they saw the family's letters and tokens, even if they risked being accused of "privately letting them pass," they tried their best to make it easier for them by letting them go unimpeded. Soon he fled the Chang'an area.

However, the rain was getting heavier and heavier, and the road was becoming increasingly difficult to navigate. These dandy boys thought that no one would follow them at this moment, so they gradually slowed down.

On weekdays, these dandy boys are pampered, and the carriages and horses are bumping in front of them. They are already extremely exhausted after this rush. In addition, the rain has soaked their clothes and makes them look embarrassed. When they leave Dasanguan, the road ahead begins to narrow. It became increasingly difficult to walk, and the majestic pass behind seemed to cut off all fear, so complaints began to spread.

"Mom! Isn't this weather against us? The moon was full before, but it started raining in the blink of an eye!"

"Who says it's not the case? I'm so unlucky, look at the mud and water all over my body. I feel so uncomfortable."

"Why don't you just go back to Lanzhou and let your charming concubine lick you clean? Haha, I say Da Xi Sanlang, why don't you let your brother go back with you and enjoy the treatment of that sweet tongue?"< br>


"Get the hell out of here! Are you still thinking about this now? You'd better hurry up and hurry up. If someone catches up, you'll be in big trouble!"

The man named Da Xi Sanlang wiped the mud on his face on the horse and said to hurry up, but when he saw his companions around him slowing down, he couldn't help but slow down the horse.

Some people sighed and said: "It's bad luck. You said that a beautiful woman came out on the street. How could she be the daughter of Fang Xuanling's family? That's all. I met a group of clan children, and it happened that His Majesty's son, The prince's sons were all in the crowd, but the young prince's nose was broken... This is so unlucky."

After saying this, everyone else also agreed.

Nada Xi Sanlang shook his head and said: "You haven't figured out the relationship yet... In fact, beating a member of the clan, especially the prince, is a heinous crime, but with the current relationship between Guanlong and the royal family, His Majesty is really He won't punish us in any way, We may not even be imprisoned for punishment. Otherwise, it would be very difficult for Your Majesty to fight against each other. However, Fang Jun is someone who cannot be messed with. Your Majesty can hold back his anger and ignore us, but Fang Jun will not be able to spare us. We.”

The Daxi family was once a wealthy family in the Northern Wei Dynasty. Their ancestors, Daxi Wu and his son Daxi Zhenguan, were in the Shangzhu Kingdom. They dominated the country with military power and became one of the famous "Twelve Generals". They have been a wealthy family for generations.

Since the death of the two father and son, the Daxi family has no outstanding figures. It can only be regarded as a prominent family due to the legacy of its ancestors. It is difficult to do anything above, and you can only deal with merchants and serve as minions.

However, although Da Xisanlang sold goods in Longxi all day long, he highly respected Fang Jun. He often paid attention to Fang Jun's movements and deeds, and he also had an understanding of Fang Jun's temperament, so he had such words.

In his opinion, your majesty may be able to endure the peace for a while for the sake of the stability of the court, but Fang Jun's hammer is absolutely intolerable. Moreover, this guy has always been at odds with Guan Long, and he and Changsun Wuji have been fighting openly and secretly to death. Changsun Wuji's It is said that the two sons, Changsun Chong and Changsun Dan, were assassinated by Fang Jun's men, and the latter suffered a brutal and unexplained death.

Although they have a brand name of Guan Long's children on their heads, they know better than anyone else that they are just peripheral personnel of Guan Long. Now they have inexplicably offended Fang Jun. Who knows if Fang Jun will simply send out his elite soldiers? Will you catch them all and kill them all?

After all, no party is willing to deal with this matter openly. If Fang Jun really catches them and kills them, and then throws the bodies into the Wei River to feed the fish, no one will come forward to seek justice for them at this moment. .

If you die, you will die in vain...

The more Da Xi Sanlang thought about it, the more frightened he became. In addition, the clothes on his body were already soaked while walking in a rainy night. He felt a little chilled by the breeze and couldn't help but tremble.

Licking his lips, he said sternly: "You shouldn't stay here for a long time. Don't underestimate Fang Jun's arrogance and domineering attitude. Let's go back to Longxi quickly and find a place to hide. We can wait until the limelight passes before we can find a way out." .”

Others were not as panicked as he was. Although they were afraid of Fang Jun's reputation, no one thought that Fang Jun could really catch up with them and do anything to them. Touching one of their hair would be equivalent to killing all the Guanlong nobles. If you are offended, even if Fang Jun is a stick, he may be able to rise to the top, and he is definitely not a fool, right?

Besides, the road is extremely slippery and difficult to travel on this rainy night. It would be too painful to drive as crazy as before...

Someone looked around and suddenly saw a dim light in the distance. They couldn't help but said with great joy: "There is a post station ahead. We might as well go and rest for a while, drink some hot water and eat some food, and then wait until the rain subsides." It’s not too late to get going.”

When he said this, everyone agreed.

Since the melee in the evening, I have been frightened and frightened. I haven't even scratched my teeth yet. Now I have been riding for an hour. I am tired, hungry and cold. I have already lost my spirit and morale. This suggestion immediately The already low morale instantly fell to the bottom.

These dandy boys think they are out of danger and are unwilling to take a step away...

Everyone gritted their teeth and rode in the rain to get close. At first glance, they realized that it was not an inn, but several houses hidden in the woods. They were also some distance away from the official road, but the lights were particularly conspicuous in the dark night. Only then were they discovered.

Someone said: "Whether it's an inn or not, these families got up very early. At most, I just give them some money to buy some food and hot water."

Everyone was a little disappointed. How could such a few families come up with so much food to entertain so many people? But even if there was a sip of hot water to drink, it would be good to take a rest, so they rushed over.

Da Xi Sanlang looked at the vast path of rain behind him. He always felt uneasy and refused his companion's invitation to go together. He said loudly: "I have something to do at home, so go ahead and we will meet in Lanzhou!"

After saying that, he reined in the horse's belly and ran on the official road in the rain, heading straight to Longxi.

Not long after he passed by, a group of cavalry arrived in the rain. When the group of cavalry arrived, they all reined in their horses. Some people got off their horses and looked carefully at the horseshoe marks on the ground that were obscured by the rain and mud. , stood up and came to the horse of the leading knight, and whispered: "General, the thief has been off the official road, but there is still one person who continues on his way. Do we want to divide our troops to pursue him?"

The knight on the horse was naturally Gao Kan. He followed the direction of the scout's finger and looked at a few lights exposed among the trees. He said expressionlessly: "Just a fish that slips through the net does not affect the overall situation. It tells his fortune." , no need to pursue! Everyone dismounts, hides, and surrounds those houses first, so I can catch all these thieves!" (End of Chapter)
