The sound of fighting and shouting in the courtyard finally woke up the sleeping Cheng Dexuan. He staggered out of the door, shook his head and saw that in the courtyard, there were flames everywhere, and many soldiers were coming and going, carrying water basins and going to the backyard.

Running, looking panicked.

More than ten guards had gathered at his door, as if they were strictly protecting him, as if they were worried that someone would come and assassinate him.

Cheng Dexuan was very puzzled and stepped forward and asked: "What's going on?"

When one of the captains saw Cheng Dexuan finally wake up, he pushed open the door and clasped his fists, saying: "Sir, there are assassins who entered the mansion at night and set fire to the mansion."

Cheng Dexuan had a look of astonishment on his face and asked: "Did the assassins catch them? Who did they come to assassinate?"

The man turned his head and said: "There are many assassins, all dressed in black, who came to the hospital to commit murder. Their target seems to be for Mr. Su Chen in the backyard. We killed some assassins, but also suffered heavy casualties.

"

After hearing this, Cheng Dexuan's expression changed drastically and he asked anxiously: "How is Mr. Su doing now? Has he been injured by an assassin?"

The man was a little hesitant, because according to the latest situation, they had learned that there were many casualties in the backyard. Mr. Su Chen and his family were attacked and injured by the master assassins of the men in black, and the house was set on fire. Su Chen was not seen at all.

Chen and others escaped, so they hesitated.

"Sir, Mr. Su Chen and his family were injured by an assassin. They were trapped in a room and set on fire by an assassin. They didn't escape. I'm afraid the situation is in danger."

"What, there is such a thing?" After hearing this, Cheng Dexuan felt his head sting even more. Su Chen was actually stabbed, which was more serious than good. There would be flaws in this peace negotiation. When he went north to Bianjing City,

How to explain to the official family of Zhao Kuangyin and His Highness Zhao Guangyi?

At this time, Cheng Dexuan said in a hurry: "If you don't hurry up and organize people to put out the fire, send someone to inform the Yangzhou governor and lead people to strictly investigate suspicious people in the city and search for assassins. We cannot let these people escape. We must find out the identity of the assassins."

This will also make it easier to explain to the court."

"Yes!" Dutou took the order and sent two guards to quickly rush to the governor's house and bring a message to the governor of Yangzhou.

Cheng Dexuan quickly put on his clothes and strode towards the backyard under the protection of his guards.

Just after passing the Moon Gate, I saw a sea of ​​fire not far away, burning a house. Many guards were carrying water to put out the fire, and in the yard, Liang Jiong was giving instructions with a knife.

Cheng Dexuan walked up and asked, "Master Liang, can Mr. Su Chen be rescued?"

Liang Jiong turned around and took a look, realizing that it was Cheng Dexuan who had arrived. He shook his head and sighed: "We were not rescued. Mr. Su and his family were besieged by assassins, and then they were trapped in the room and burned by the fire. We can't rush into the room yet.

Mr. Su Chen and his family may be in danger.

After hearing this, Cheng Dexuan felt extremely disappointed, and with a sense of regret, he asked again: "How many assassins have been captured?"

Liang Jong shook his head and said: "We killed more than ten assassins and captured three. However, all three of them committed suicide, leaving no survivors, only more than ten corpses. The rest have all fled. I have sent Du Yu

Hou led his troops to pursue them. I wonder if they can catch a few alive in the end and ask them where they came from."

Cheng Dexuan nodded and said: "Yes, if Mr. Su is unfortunately killed and his fate is like this, we have nothing to do, but at least we have to find out the origin of the assassin, so that we can make an explanation to the court and make up for our mistakes."

Liang Jiong nodded and said: "Yes, the official thinks so too. Moreover, we have met Mr. Su once. If he dies like this, as a lover of his articles, I will definitely avenge him."

Blood feud."

Cheng Dexuan nodded slightly and said no more. He just watched these guards putting out the fire. For some reason, Cheng Dexuan had an indescribable feeling in his heart.

Could a great talent like Su Chen die like this?

Who could have done it? Was it someone from the Tang court, a Khitan person, or someone from the Northern Han Dynasty?

Cheng Dexuan couldn't figure it out for a while, but he felt that this matter was by no means that simple.

………

The night was hazy, the sky was like ink, and the stars were wrapped in a layer of black cloth, which was shrouded in dark clouds.

At this time, Su Chen took Liu Mo Nong, protected by some guards, and walked quickly along a remote alley. There were only five or six figures, but Peng Jingjing and Bai Susu did not follow them, but walked away.

Another street.

In this way, you can avoid the detection of the pursuers and break them into pieces, making it easier to escape.

Tonight's battle is tense and exciting, and the timing is very precise. If it were slower, it is likely that the men in black would not be able to escape, and would be killed by the three hundred Song guards and patrol soldiers in Yangzhou City.

If you are surrounded, you will be captured and cannot be killed.

Fortunately, they acted quickly, and Su Chen was able to escape in time with his family and break out of the encirclement.

At this moment, there were dozens of pursuers chasing behind them, causing barking noises in the alley. However, Bailang led his men to block the pursuit, buying time for Su Chen, Bai Susu and others to escape.

Less than half an hour later, Su Chen and Liu Monong arrived at the mouth of the Yangzhou Neihe River where it exits the city wall. Since there was no war here, the water gate was not closed. A group of Song Army soldiers, about ten people, were patrolling here and were hacked.

The men in clothes were dealt with and the bamboo raft was prepared at the same time.

"Master Su, it's safe here."

Only when Su Chen and Liu Monong arrived did Jing Hong speak.

Su Chen asked: "Have the two ladies, Jingjing and Susu, left the city?"

One of the guards clasped his fists and said, "Sir, the two ladies have just left the city on a bamboo raft."

Su Chen felt relieved after hearing this.

"Okay, let's leave quickly, leaving two bamboo rafts behind for the latter, and the rest of the people, all leave the city." Su Chen immediately ordered without further delay.

As for Bailang and others after breaking up, they had already told them in advance that after escaping from the city, if they did not meet up in time, they would immediately change into ordinary fishermen, woodcutter, etc., hide in the mountains and forests, and then find a way to return to the Tang Kingdom in the south of the Yangtze River.

"Yes!" The guards clasped their fists and obeyed the order.

Su Chen, Liu Monong, Jing Yun, Jing Hong and others all got on the bamboo raft and rushed out of the city along the inland waterway.

After a while, they landed on the embankment outside the city, destroyed the bamboo raft, covered up, and then quickly left and entered the jungle path.

In the bamboo forest three miles southeast of Yangzhou City, Su Chen met Peng Jingjing and Bai Susu.

"Ms. sir, are you okay?"

"It's okay, everything is safe." Su Chen smiled slightly, making Peng Jingjing and Bai Susu feel at ease.

"This night was quite exciting!" Peng Jingjing said with a chuckle.

Su Chen said: "This plan was successfully implemented and none of us were injured. It is our blessing. Get in the car quickly and rush to the riverside ferry to leave Yangzhou.

Bai Susu and others nodded and followed Su Chen into the carriage.

Dozens of guards mounted their horses one after another to protect them. The cavalry drove away and headed straight to a hidden riverside, where a large ship was waiting to take them out to sea.
