C21 Emperor's Bar Was Robbed
Yuen Qing squinted her eyes and lazily laid on the couch, basking in the winter sun.
Yu Longchen looked at her dotingly. After a while, Yuen Qing fell asleep. Yu Longchen took a mink fur coat and covered her body.
"Mistress!" Changxu looked at Yuen Qing who was lying down like a cat and said softly, "They made a move!"
"Okay!" Yu Longchen looked into the distance with a deep look in his eyes.
At this time, a group of people were drinking tea and resting in the post house. A quiet person said to a man with a thick beard, "Escort Head, we will arrive at the capital in a few days. At that time, we can enjoy ourselves!"
"That's right." The man with a beard, Escort Head, said in a deep voice, "This imperial tribute can only be escorted by the largest security bureau in the world. This is the confirmation from the Imperial Court. Hehe. "
Escort Head looked at the sun in the sky, stood up, and ordered, "It's noon now. We're on our way. We can get to the next post house before dark!"
"Yes!"
A group of people was escorting more than a dozen carriages. Every one of them looked to the left and right from time to time. They had to be vigilant at all times!
"Report!" The pathfinder quickly came back with a bitter face. His tone was not good. "Escort Head, we can't go on the first two roads!"
"Why?"
"The pathfinder asked. The temple on the first road is broken, and the local people gather money. The temple on the first road is broken, and the local people gather money. We need to repair the body of the Buddha in the temple. The head of the Buddha is still in the middle of the road. On the other side, a few days ago, a strong wind blew a big tree to the side of the road. Three people can't even carry it, and it's still blocking the road!"
"This..." Escort Head's brows were tightly knitted, and his eyes were filled with worry.
"Escort Head." It was still the afternoon man. "Why don't we retreat and wait for the Buddha to move the tree away before we continue our journey?"
"No, there is a time limit for this imperial tribute to be escorted. If it exceeds the time limit, it will be a capital offense! There is another path that is close to the Imperial Capital. As long as we arrive today, we will cross that path!"
"Escort Head! Absolutely not! That road was filled with government officials and thieves. There are many stolen goods from the government, and we can't catch them!"
" Those are all soldiers from the government. How can they be compared to our Escort Agency! Let out the word that they are using the imperial tribute to cross the road. I want to see who has the guts to rob us! "
"Escort Head..." That person's face was full of anxiety and uneasiness. He still wanted to say something.
"There's no need to say anything more. Let's go down that path! I want to see who has the guts to rob my dart!" Escort Head said excitedly. The fat on his face trembled a few times. The fighting spirit in his heart was also raised. "Change the path!"
Seeing Escort Head's determination, no one could say anything. Thinking about it, robbing imperial tribute was not a small matter. The Imperial Court would definitely send troops to destroy it. These bandits would not dare to be so rampant, but they still did not dare to let down their guard. Instead, they became even more careful.
On both sides of the road stood steep mountain peaks. The mountain forest was dense, and the road was paved with rocks. It was difficult for a horse carriage to travel. The original six hours of travel had only taken about half of the journey after four to six hours. However, it was still safe and sound.
Seeing that they were about to come out of the mountain, Escort Head smiled proudly and said, "I told you I wouldn't rob you! How about it? When had this Escort Head's words ever been false? When we reach the capital, I'll treat everyone to a drink! "
"Alright!" Everyone felt relieved and replied happily.
"Clang, clang, clang..."
Just as everyone was thinking of celebrating, they did not notice the grass on the hillside moving. They were caught off guard by the wood that was thrown down.
"Charge!" With an order, forty to fifty people rushed down from the mountain.
"Don't panic! Protect the imperial tribute!" Escort Head was shocked in his heart, and then he calmly shouted. He pulled the reins of his horse and rushed towards the fighting crowd.
Escort Head killed four or five people in a row, and his fighting spirit was aroused. He thought in his heart, You small fries dare to rob the dart? Let grandpa give you a quick death! He raised the bleeding sword in his hand and stabbed it towards a fighting bandit!
Escort Head was enjoying the feeling of the sword stabbing into his flesh. Suddenly, he grabbed the saddle and bent down. A masked robber with a sword flew over from behind him, his eyes filled with killing intent.
"You lowly person, how dare you sneak attack me. If it wasn't for my agility, you would have succeeded!"
"Cut the crap! Go to hell!" The thief did not say much. He turned his sword and rushed towards Escort Head. "Clang!" Escort Head blocked with his sword and stabbed with his backhand. The thief immediately turned around. He stepped on the horse's butt and jumped up. The horse was shocked. It raised its front leg and let out a long roar.
The thief seized the opportunity and pointed his sword at Escort Head's chest. Escort Head jumped up and stood on the horse's back to counter the thief's attack. The thief couldn't kill him, so he fiercely stabbed the horse. The horse started to feel pain.
Escort Head jumped off the horse and looked at the injured horse with a face full of love. The anger on his face became even stronger. He stomped heavily on the ground, causing dust to fly up.
Escort Head's moves changed. Every sword was aimed at a vital point. The thief actually did not have a chance to fight back.
Escort Head had always held the upper hand. In his heart, he was disdainful. He wanted to kill him in one move. He turned his body and jumped into the air, spinning 360 degrees. The thief could not find any flaws, so he could only dodge backwards. In the blink of an eye, the thief turned his body to the right and brushed past Escort Head. He took the opportunity to raise his sword and cut the flesh on Escort Head's waist.
Escort Head was a person with a hot temper, but after more than ten moves, he didn't hurt the thief at all. Instead, he was stabbed once. His heart was filled with anger, and his moves became chaotic.
A trace of a smile flashed across the thief's eyes. He jumped into the air and swung his sword horizontally, forcing Escort Head to take more than ten steps back. Escort Head's sword pointed to the ground. He, who was about to fall to the ground, propped himself up again.
Before Escort Head could stand up, the thief's sword went straight into Escort Head's right chest. Escort Head felt the pain and gripped his sword tightly. He raised his hand and charged back.
When the Thief saw this, he used all his strength. With the help of Escort Head's strength, he kicked with both feet and pulled the sword out! Escort Head looked at his hand. Blood kept flowing out, and the wound was so deep that it could be seen. Bone!
"Ah!" Escort Head shouted out loudly! The fierce-looking man's face started to tremble, and his killing intent was fully expressed. Once he became anxious, he would reveal many flaws. Now that he had suffered so many injuries, and was in such a rush, it would naturally be easier for him to knock him down.
The thief used three moves in a row, and Escort Head was injured and bleeding too much. It was obvious that his physical strength was not enough, and he was injured in the next move. Just as the thief was about to stab Escort Head's heart with his sword, a few surviving bodyguards came to block the thief. They drove their horses to save Escort Head.
"Don't chase a cornered enemy!" The thief stopped his men and his eyes flashed. He looked at the corpse and imperial tribute behind him and said in a deep voice, "Clean it up and take the imperial tribute away!"
There were a total of five people who had escaped, and all of them were injured. Escort Head had long been exhausted. He held on until he reached the entrance of the security bureau and fell down.
"Escort Head! Escort Head! Escort Head... "
It was late at night. The Minister of Ministry of Revenue, Zhong Songfeng, was resting at home. When the housekeeper came to report to him, he hurried out of the house with a worried look on his face.
Yu Longzi was naturally furious. He gave Zhong Songfeng a heavy slap on the face and composed himself. He said," There are two more days to the deadline. If you can't find the imperial tribute, even I can't protect you. You should know what to do! "
"Yes! Yes!" Zhong Song knelt in front of Yu Longzi, his body trembling like a sieve.
King Chu's Mansion.
Yu Longchen and Yu Longtang were drinking tea, Yu Longchen's face was full of energy, but Yu Longtang revealed some uneasiness.
"I have succeeded today. I think Yu Longzi should know about it now." Yu Longchen's tone was calm, as if the imperial tribute being robbed had nothing to do with him.
"I am naturally at ease when you do things. But how did you predict that they will change their path?"
"Oh, I know a little about the way the Escort Agency operates. The Buddha blocks the path and does not walk straight. The trees block the sky and do not allow it! The people who robbed the darts today are all friends in the pugilistic world and have nothing to do with us."
"The reason why we kept them alive was to let Yu Longzi know that the imperial tribute was robbed. However, the imperial tribute was in Zhong Song's charge, and the escort team was the escort team of the Duke of Ling's wife and brother. Then he will definitely not report it and find a way to find the imperial tribute. " Yu Longtang smiled coldly and stood up, full of confidence, "Next, let's see how I will spend his arm!"
"Wait for the good news..." Yu Longchen got up and bowed. He smiled and sent Yu Longtang out.
Yu Longchen came back and saw Yuen Qing sneaking around the corner. He smiled and went over to mention her. He pretended to be guilty and said, "You are getting bolder and bolder. You actually eavesdropped?"
"Is the prince talking about his wife and concubines? Why can't he hear it?"
"What? Are you jealous?"
"I wonder what the Royal Highness is talking about!" Yuen Qing's face turned red.
Yu Longchen pinched her chin and laughed evilly, "What do you think... Hmm? "
Yuen Qing quickly ran to open the way, "I am going to sleep!" She only heard Yu Longchen laughing evilly a few times.
