Chapter 23 Rescue Huan Yanfan(1/2)
The wheels of the carriage were creaking, and the bells at the corners of the carriage were jingling.
After leaving the Martial Palace, Zong Chuke was in a bad mood. Although he had been in the officialdom for many years and had not done any good things, he was not convinced.
His talent and ability are not as good as that fool Wu Sansi. Over the years, he has been suppressed by him and licking him every day. God is so eyeless!
Zong Chuke often regrets that he cannot advance to the top bad guy.
Halfway through the way, his disciple Zhou Zheng jumped into the car.
"Shangshu, something big is wrong!" Zhou Zheng hurried and sweated all over the place.
However, Zong Chuke interrupted his thoughts because of this person, felt deeply disgusted and said angrily: "Why are you anxious? Let's talk about it if you have something to do!"
"You can't go home to talk about this matter," Zhou Zheng hurriedly came to his ear and whispered: "Shangshu, the golden ingot is lost."
"What!"
Zong Chuke's eyes were wider than those of a bull's eyes at this time.
He had just praised Haikou on Wu Sansi's side, so why did this matter gobroken?
I heard from the spies yesterday that a box of gold ingots had been shipped and was waiting to be delivered to Luoyang.
How could it be lost?
"What's going on, let's talk about it carefully."
Zhou Zheng wiped his sweat and said anxiously: "Actually, it was not lost, but was robbed. Yesterday we loaded the gold ingots and transported them all the way. But who knew that they had already reached the Luoshui Ferry, and the gold ingots were robbed by the evil people. There were about a dozen people, all of whom were very skilled in martial arts, masked in black, jumped onto the bow of the ship, and without saying a word, they started to rob. The people we sent out could not resist, and the things were robbed by them."
"What are you doing!"
"Did you find out who robbed it?"
"I can't find out, I'm a neat skill, it seems like I'm a wild path." Zhou Zheng said ashamed.
Zong Chuke simply didn't want to pay attention to him, and these people were getting worse and worse.
Such a thing can't be done well.
"Shangshu, should you go to the prince to report it while you haven't walked far away?" Zhou Zheng was not doing things well, so he could only test Zong Chuke's intentions.
"Tell him? Tell him what to do!"
Zhou Zheng was so surprised: "How can we confirm this case without gold? The prince will report to His Majesty tomorrow. We cannot produce evidence, so how can it be done?"
Zong Chuke waved his hand and smiled, "What if he cares about him, it's his business! What does it have to do with us!"
He laughed in his heart, it seemed that tomorrow, Wu Sansi would be in the court and be embarrassed.
Although falsely accusing Huan Yanfan would not make Wu Sansi fall, it would at least lose 10% of his skills and follow the flow of the situation. Zong Chuke is willing to send him a ride.
…………
In the five prefectures of Hebei, outside the outskirts of Yecheng, a team of strong horses advanced at a rapid speed, with horses whips, wind and horse hooves everywhere.
When the team marched here, it was a purple bamboo forest with a wide range and no one was everywhere.
Wu Hao, the Yulin Guard in charge of the escort, quickly noticed the danger here.
Wu Hao rushed forward and reported, "Shizhong Huan, this place is too remote and may be in danger. The subordinates thought that we should speed up and rush out quickly!"
The disaster was urgent, and even Prime Minister Huan Yanfan, who was in his fifties, gave up riding a car and instead rode a horse to rush on his way.
He temporarily let go of the disaster and rushed back to Luoyang, just to make the lost box of gold ingots.
It’s all because he was too busy and was not careful in his care, which allowed the villain to get a loophole and steal gold.
This trip was to rush back to Luoyang, report the case to His Majesty, and request Dali Temple to investigate the case in detail.
The sheep must be repaired quickly. He thought for a moment and nodded, "Okay, let me work harder, I remember that there will be an official post in front of you when you pass through this bamboo forest."
Wu Hao received the order and met with the officers and soldiers immediately.
Several people ran away, but in the end they were still ambushed by the villain's conspiracy.
A whistle sounded above his head, and the guards immediately became alert, conquered the team, and surrounded Huan Yanfan in the middle.
The cold wind whistled, and the bamboo leaves around me gathered together, making a rustling sound of grinding, swaying people's hearts.
The guards did not dare to relax for a moment, and they all stared at the abnormal movements in the surrounding bamboo forest.
On a few thin bamboo poles, like a spirit snake, a few black and dirty figures slipped down along the bamboo poles.
Wu Hao immediately reacted, it was not good!
There is an ambush!
Don't panic, protect the waiter!
Several people set up their formations and their swords were unsheathed, but they had a natural weakness.
Horses, they have horses!
The enemy was gradually approaching, all of whom were neat night clothes and half-masked, obviously coming with preparation.
In the face of crisis, people can resist fear, but horses must not be like humans.
Their perception is naturally more sensitive than humans.
Against the silent and solemn background, a war horse soon showed a panic look.
Screaming, tapping.
It is even more difficult to control, and the guards can imagine that once the fight begins, these horses will definitely drag their backs.
They are not suitable for close combat when riding on war horses.
But when you get off the horse, you will startle the horses, and they will run around in scattered ways, which is even more unfavorable to face the challenge.
What to do? Just when these guards were in a dilemma, the assassins had launched the first round of attacks.
The guards were fighting to the death, however, as they had expected at first.
They were far less flexible than the assassins under the horses, and two war horses were injured and fell to the ground.
Fortunately, this was relieved of the immediate escort, and they could finally do their best to protect Huan Yanfan.
Surrounded by Huan Yanfan in the protection circle, he was an official for decades and was the first time he had encountered such a dangerous attack.
He was angry!
Although Huan Yanfan is upright, he is not a fool.
He immediately realized who sent these assassins who were covered in faces and refused to show their true faces.
"Thief, Wu Sansi sent you here to kill the old minister. One old minister does things and one person does it, don't hurt others!"
The assassin who had been silent and only focused on fighting, gradually found the loophole in the encirclement, stepped on a war horse that fell to the ground, jumped up in the air, and headed straight for Huan Yanfan's heart!
Old thief, come and take your life!
bite!
With a crisp sound, the tip of the knife broke with the sound!
The flashing fragment turned around and inserted it straight into the assassin's eyes!
Huan Yanfan died on the spot as he saw the man who planned to kill him.
A burly and sturdy man with a beard, holding a double hammer in his hand, hitting the black-clothed assassins hard.
He took action steadily and accurately, like a pile driving, and one by one, the evil thieves had no chance of fighting back after the fierce attack of the hammer in his hand.
Everyone fell to the ground.
Another young man in white had a sparse expression and did not have a suitable weapon in his hand, but no one dared to approach him.
The assassin was knocked down by the hidden weapon in his hand a few feet away. Mr. Huan was old and could not see clearly what tricks the young man used.
The war quickly reversed and it had reached the point where it could clean the battlefield.
It's simply incredible.
"Big eyes, you can hit it quickly, and I don't know how many more you can leave for me!" The young man in white said angrily, obviously very angry that he couldn't beat him a few more.
"I can only hit one with two hammers. It's not like you. I sprinkle snow balls and beat them one by one, and you're not satisfied!"
The two of them started to make a noise, and the surviving guards hurriedly stepped forward to thank them.
"Thank you, two heroes, for helping each other for justice!"
"It's all a matter of duty, so don't be polite."
"How long have you been leaving from Yecheng? You have been walking too fast!"
The young man in white smiled.
"That's right, after we had a meal, you ran away, and we chased us for so long, almost ruining the big thing!"
These words made the guards dumbfounded. Why, these people have always followed us?
We Yulin Guards didn’t grow up with nothing to grow up with, and we didn’t notice it at all!
Could it be another group of assassins?
