surnamed Wang

Chapter 294
On the official road leading to the capital, there are two horsemen coming from south to north. The two horsemen are about the same age, both young people in their early twenties.

One of them was wearing a wide-bodied long gown and a square scarf hat. This dress was popular in the Song Dynasty and had an elegant name called "Gaozhuang Scarf". It was a typical literati dress.

On the other hand, the other person is much more freewheeling, sloppy from top to bottom, with patches on his clothes, unshaven beard, and a dejected look on his face.

Even though this man was so unkempt, the scholar still respected him, because just now, the scholar who was going to Beijing to rush for the exam was hijacked by bandits, and it was this man dressed like a beggar who rescued him.

If only this is the case, it is not enough to make this son of a famous family so awed. Rather than saying that the other party saved him, it is better to say that the man took off the heads of everyone except the scholar.

The scholar's surname is Shen, from the Shen family in Jiangdong. He has a cousin who is a military officer in the capital, and he often talks to him about killings when he returns home during the holidays.

But hearing is not as good as seeing, this pampered son just vomited for a quarter of an hour, if he was not afraid that this dressed-up knight would leave him alone, he would have vomited.

The two of them rode the horse left by the bandit for a full afternoon. The young master's equestrian skills were not satisfactory, and the bandit's saddle was not very comfortable, so he already felt his ass was burning.

But seeing the posture of the man in front, he clearly didn't intend to stop, so the scholar could only grit his teeth and continue to follow.

Although this is an official way, it is hard to guarantee that there will be no gangsters. The scholar surnamed Shen, as the hope of the entire Shen family, would not be worthwhile if he died before leaving school.

The scholar flicked the rein, stepped forward quickly, licked his face and asked:
"Hero, may I ask why you went to the capital?"

"..."

His answer was still silence as always.

The scholar wasn't annoyed either. He was used to the fact that the other party never paid attention to him along the way.Judging from his superficial knowledge of people, the other party cherishes words like gold, which makes him feel at ease.

Even a child knows this simple principle of being courteous without doing anything, if the other party greets them with a smile and talks endlessly, it will make him suspicious.

……

"My surname is Shen and my name is Qianqiu. I come from the Shen family in Jiangdong. I don't know the surname and name of a knight. Where did you learn from?"

Although Shen Qianqiu yelled one hero at a time, she still had the pride of a scholar in her heart.

Although the Shen family has been weak in recent years, they have been overwhelmed by the Liu family, who is also a big family in Jiangdong, but the camels are bigger than horses, and the Shen family has great fortunes, and there are not a few people from the Jianghu who intend to come to climb high.

He declared his family background, besides having the desire to show off his prominent family background, he also wanted to take the opportunity to win over the other party.

Although Shen Qianqiu doesn't practice martial arts, he still knows the skills of the guards at home. The bandit that they couldn't even handle was easily decapitated by this man. This made him learn the art of controlling people from his grandfather since he was a child. How could he not Excited?
If he was escorted by the other party on this trip, he would definitely be able to reach the capital safely. Now that he is Xie Yuan, even if he fails to win the three yuan, as long as he can enter the top three and add another strong general to the family, it is also a great achievement.

It is said that scholars have many minds, and Shen Qianqiu has at least one hundred and eight. In just a few words, he tried every means to eat this master of unknown origin.

"Heh!" Wang Bingquan suddenly smiled.

Just such a word made the scholars beside him break out in cold sweat.

"What does he mean?" Shen Qianqiu was puzzled in his heart, he just clearly heard a murderous intent from the other party's words.

"Do you think I'm too noisy?" The scholar was rarely self-aware.

For the next part of the journey, Shen Qianqiu didn't dare to test the other party again, and all the methods of combining grace and power that he had in mind were all abandoned, and being alive was more important than anything else.

……

On Girl Mountain, the battle has been going on for several days.

The Wang Dynasty army was thrown into disarray by Xishun and Zhou Xuantong's previous sneak attack. Not only the artillery was destroyed, but even most of the firecrackers were lost.

Zhao Hu, who was in charge of leading the troops, made a real fuss and dispatched 3 garrison troops from Zhongzhou with a single order. The [-] troops attacked Wangshizhai together.

Although the people on the mountain were defending according to the danger, 3 people were too many for them. Under the rounds of attacks regardless of losses, the cottage was almost lost several times. Has been captured.

In a certain house in the cottage, the great eunuch Zhou Xuantong was kneeling in front of Emperor Xiaocun, and said in a deep voice:

"Your Majesty, you can't stay here any longer, let the servants escort you away."

The little emperor frowned and said:
"If I just leave like this, won't I implicate the people in the cottage?"

"But if you died, those people would have sacrificed in vain. The reason why the Dynasty's army didn't do their best is because they wanted to capture His Majesty alive." Zhou Xuantong continued to persuade.

Emperor Xiao Cun, who had already offered the country with both hands, suddenly lost his mind, and turned to look at the others, "What do you think of me?"

Lu Xiaoxian pondered for a while and said:

"Boss Zhou is right, if something goes wrong with His Majesty, then everything will be in vain."

Bai Zijing on the side also persuaded:
"I have waited for more than ten years in Girl Mountain, just waiting for this day. If Your Majesty is arrested by rebellious ministers because of me, we will become sinners through the ages. I hope that Your Majesty will put the overall situation first."

Emperor Xiaowen felt even more guilty when he heard the words, and murmured:
"I thought that if the throne was given up, the uncle would give up, but I didn't expect him to kill them all. If I had known this, I should have killed myself in the palace.

You have been waiting for the royal family for more than ten years, and there is absolutely no reason for you to die for this. Since he wants to catch me so much, then I will grant his wish. "

"Your Majesty, you must not do it!" The rest of the people hurriedly dissuaded after hearing this.

At this moment, a cold snort came, and Chen Shitou, who hadn't said a word from the beginning to the end, said:

"You don't think they will let us go after they catch you, do you? Let me tell you, why don't you be the bait and follow this old eunuch as far away as possible, so maybe they will forget us."

"Stone, don't be rude!" Bai Zijing hurriedly scolded.

"That's how it is! When you come, the dynasty army will follow you, and when you leave, they will naturally follow."

The young man curled his lips, his words were not shocking, and he kept dying.

The rest of the people looked at each other when they heard the words, but Emperor Xiao Cun, who was about his age, was the first to laugh:

"Haha, what did you call me? Brat, if it was in the past, I would definitely let Zhou Xuantong hold your mouth.

But now you are right, they are coming for me, I should be the bait, after I leave, you hurry up and escape, even if you have to go out of the border, you must survive. "

"His Majesty……"

Zhou Xuantong wanted to say something else, but was immediately interrupted by Emperor Xiaocun:
"Stop talking, I've made up my mind. I want to show that wolfish and ambitious uncle what righteousness is, so what if he wins the throne, isn't he a loner? Isn't he infamous forever?"

……

Bai Zijing and Chen Shitou left the room, and they walked side by side. After a long time, Bai Zijing sighed and said:

"The play just now went well."

A smile appeared on Chen Shitou's face, and he didn't reply, but turned his head to look at the swing by the cliff.
