Chapter 2 Getting rid of the chase
It came so fast that Pei Shaoqing's heart sank.
Judging from the equipment, it should be Zuo Xiaowei.
Zuo Xiaowei's pursuit can only explain one thing.
That is, the guardrail who stayed behind Anhua Gate was mostly dead.
Pei Shaoqing suddenly felt a little stuffy in his chest and the corners of his eyes were inexplicably wet.
"He" became an orphan since he was nine years old. If it weren't for the help of the guards of Hechuan City, he would have starved to death for a long time, so these guards were not only his robes, but also his relatives.
Having occupied this body, do you have to inherit his emotions?
But now is not the time to be sad.
Pei Shaoqing put away his sadness and quickly found a hemp rope to tie Princess Taiping's hand.
Zuo Xiaowei will soon chase him and must take Princess Taiping away as soon as possible.
Princess Taiping did not make any unnecessary struggles, but said coldly: "What you are chasing Zuo Xiaowei's cavalry, the elite of the twelve guards, you can't escape."
"So, do you have any good suggestions?"
Pei Shaoqing tied Princess Taiping's hands and continued to tie her feet.
"Give up." Princess Taiping frowned, "I can leave you a way out."
"That's so thankful." Pei Shaoqing groaned and said, "But I don't want to give up now."
Of course Pei Shaoqing would not give up easily, not to mention whether Princess Taiping’s promise was reliable or not, even if her promise was reliable, Wu Zetian would not let them go.
Has the royal face been desecrated and still wants to live?
Really think "Yonghui Shulu" is a decoration?
"Then you are stubborn." Princess Taiping said, "Then wait for Zuo Xiaowei to be caught and then die and destroy the clan!"
"It is impossible to catch it." Pei Shaoqing sneered, "When have you ever seen the guard-catcher who was captured alive?"
While the two were talking, Pei Shaoqing had tied Princess Taiping's ankles, then stuffed her into the carriage, and picked up a horse whip and tweaked it heavily on the horse's thighs.
The horse immediately threw away its four hooves and ran away.
But how could a carriage run past a cavalry?
Zuo Xiaowei Ranger approached at a speed visible to the naked eye.
At this speed, you will be caught up before you reach Jiuli Village.
And you can't get rid of the pursuers, nor can you go to Jiuli Village.
Otherwise, wouldn’t it be that the guards of Jiuli Village’s robes were harmed?
Pei Shaoqing was a little anxious and had to get rid of the pursuers as soon as possible.
While thinking, the speeding carriage came to a fork in the road.
From this fork to the right is Jiuli Village, where Pei Shaoqing's trip is.
To the left of the fork in the road is Bashang, which is the old place where Xiang Yu set up a banquet in Hongmen.
At this time, Bashang was not like the vast wheat fields in later generations, but had large forests.
Looking at the forest not far away, Pei Shaoqing suddenly felt his heart moving, and then he pulled his horse back to the official road to Bashang.
After speeding less than five hundred steps, the carriage entered the dense forest, and the sight of the left guard cavalry behind was blocked.
Pei Shaoqing pulled out the horizontal knife, then rode on the back of the horse holding the horse, then used his left hand to control the reins, and stabbed the horse in his right hand with a knife.
Pei Shaoqing's thorn is at the bottom of the belly of the horse.
Although it pierced the abdominal epidermis and muscle tissue, it did not hurt the key points.
In order to reduce the amount of bleeding and maintain the pain, Pei Shaoqing did not pull out the knife.
Therefore, the horse will not fall to death in a short period of time. Under the stimulation of pain, it will continue to run, and even run faster than usual until it is exhausted or caught up.
After stabbing this knife, Pei Shaoqing immediately returned to the carriage.
Without a moment of pause, Pei Shaoqing picked up Tai Jingzhu and jumped out of the carriage.
After landing, Pei Shaoqing held Princess Taiping and rolled continuously, removing the inertia.
Looking up, I saw that the carriage had already galloped along the official road and soon disappeared into the dense forest.
All this happened so quickly that Princess Taiping had no time to react. When she reacted, she found that the person had come from the carriage to the ground and was pressed under Pei Shaoqing.
"How dare you..." Princess Taiping was so angry that her eyebrows were raised. Just when she was about to scold her, Pei Shaoqing covered her mouth and dragged it behind a big tree.
It's been less than five minutes since the two of them hid.
Zuo Xiaowei's cavalry chased into the woods like a wind swaying in the wind.
However, Zuo Xiaowei's ranger did not find any abnormality and went away soon.
Pei Shaoqing only breathed a sigh of relief until the chase had gone far away and could not even hear the sound of horse hooves.
I don’t know what will happen in the future, at least I will pass the first level temporarily, because it will take about half an hour for Zuo Xiaowei’s racquet to catch up with the carriage.
When they found out that the carriage was an empty car,
Go back and expand the carpet-style search,
It will take two hours or even longer.
By then, he had already met with the guard robes of Jiuli Village.
Princess Taiping, who was held in his arms, suddenly struggled violently.
Pei Shaoqing then let go and covered Princess Taiping's right hand with a small mouth and said in a deep voice: "Your Highness, I advise you to cooperate more, otherwise it will be difficult for me to do it."
"Take your dog's paws away!"
Princess Taiping raised her beautiful eyes and snatched him fiercely, scolding her.
"Huh?" Pei Shaoqing subconsciously lowered his head, and found that his left arm was always hanging on Princess Taiping's abdomen, and his left palm was pressing directly on Princess Taiping's bulging chest.
However, Pei Shaoqing did not feel any guilt about this.
But he moved his left hand away from Princess Taiping as if nothing had happened.
Princess Taiping gave Pei Shaoqing another fierce look, as if very angry.
Pei Shaoqing didn't care and said in a deep voice: "I will let go of your legs next, but you'd better not try to escape, otherwise I won't promise to do anything excessive."
Princess Taiping was still angry and ignored Pei Shaoqing.
"If you don't speak, I'll just treat you as your default." Pei Shaoqing said that, loosened Princess Taiping's legs.
But he tied the untied hemp rope to Princess Taiping's wrist and forced her to walk back.
At this time, the sun had risen high, at least at the beginning of Si, that is, nine o'clock in the morning, but there was no one on the official road.
This is actually very normal.
Because there is no curfew in Chang'an City on the three days of the Lantern Festival.
So the common people in a radius of hundreds of miles went to the city to watch the lantern festival.
However, Pei Shaoqing still didn't dare to be careless and did not dare to take the main road. Instead, he specially picked the small road hidden in the ditches. For this reason, he would rather take a longer road.
It took about an hour to leave.
At the beginning of noon, I finally arrived at Jiuli Village.
There are more than a dozen village houses in Jiuli Village, and there is a small fort at the entrance of the village.
Before he could enter the village, a strong man rushed out of the straw pile at the entrance of the village.
"Dalang, why did you come? What about Uncle Ge and the others? Who is this little lady?"
As soon as the thick man showed up, three questions immediately threw them over like a beacon.
"Erlang, shut up, where is Uncle Jiu?" Pei Shaoqing asked with a stern face.
The thick man immediately turned his head and shouted at the fort, "Grandma, Grandma! Dalang is back!"
The next moment, more than a dozen strong men in sheepskin coats rushed out of Hulala from the fort.
Chapter completed!
