When the people saw the gate of the post house open, they stopped crowding and shouting and looked towards the door!
I saw a thin man with a sallow face slowly walking out!
This person is none other than He Wenqin, Lord He, who fell seriously ill in Yunyang County!
He had not taken the medicine brought by the imperial physician for two consecutive days.
He only took the medicine left for him by Si Jinxing, and the feeling of nausea and vomiting became less and less. He was able to eat some porridge yesterday, and he is feeling even better today!
He glanced at the imperial doctors following behind him, his eyes dimmed. In order to enter Xuzhou City, he pretended to be very hard-working!
The attendant beside He Wenqin shouted loudly:
"The Imperial Envoy has arrived!"
The people gathered outside the gate no longer dared to be arrogant. They all knelt on the ground and said, "Your humble servants pay their respects to the Imperial Envoy!"
He Wenqin waved his hand to signal everyone to stand up and said:
"What you're saying is pure nonsense! Good officials with good morals will be promoted! Folks, there's no need to worry!"
When these words came out, the people did not buy it. They shouted:
"Sir, are you trying to appease us first, but then doing something else behind the scenes?"
"Why waste time talking to him? Master Fu didn't even go to the City God Temple today. I guess something must have happened!"
"Give Master Fu back to us!"
When someone in the crowd shouted this, more people followed suit.
Suddenly, someone threw a handful of rotten vegetable leaves towards He Wenqin on the steps!
As luck would have it, it landed right on his face!
When everyone saw this, they immediately started throwing rotten eggs, rotten leaves, dry grass roots... towards the gate of the inn!
Gu Anxu in the carriage looked at the disheveled He Wenqin and said:
"County Lady, is this Imperial Envoy okay?"
Si Jinxing didn't even look at him, her eyes moving among the crowd. Could the other person be so patient?
Just as she thought of this, she saw a commotion suddenly break out in the crowd!
Because the crowd was crowded together, as long as someone exerted a little force, many people would be pushed forward!
Someone shouted, "You bastard official! Give me your life!"
As soon as he finished speaking, five or six people rushed towards He Wenqin on the steps with swords in hand!
Several guards accompanying He Wenqin immediately stepped forward and protected him behind them!
However, these palace soldiers were no match for the other party at all, and were knocked to the ground in just a few moves!
When those people saw this, bloodthirsty light flashed in their eyes!
Just as the sword was about to reach He Wenqin, four men in black jumped out from nowhere in a flash!
He protected He Wenqin behind him and fought with those people disguised as civilians!
Those people never expected such a sudden change to happen. They hurriedly stepped back, looked at each other, and shouted:
"Fellow villagers, let's kill this bastard official and rid the people of this evil!"
Even at this time, they still did not forget to mislead the people and try to create chaos to make it easier for them to take action!
When the people saw this, they were all a little confused.
How come they don’t know that there are such skilled people among their own people?
But they are not that stupid!
They were just ordinary people and had no intention of killing the imperial envoy. After all, they were just pleading for Lord Fu!
What's more, the imperial envoy is protected by experts!
Even if they attacked together, it would be a stupid method of killing one thousand enemies and destroying eight hundred of their own. In the end, not only would they fail to save Lord Fu, but they would also lose their own lives!
This is a losing business, we can’t do it!
He Wenqin looked at the four men in black in front of him and immediately thought of the Princess of Anping County.
I feel so ashamed that I owe so much to that child's care along the way!
He wiped the dirt off his face and shouted:
"I, He Wenqin, have not done anything to Master Fu. You must not listen to the instigation of these people!"
As soon as he finished speaking, he heard a "whoosh" sound behind his ear, followed by the sound of an arrow penetrating into flesh!
He Wenqin felt his scalp tingling, and he quickly turned around to look, and saw a guard standing behind him with an arrow hit his shoulder!
He looked up into the yard and saw a man quickly climbing over the wall!
But I saw that the carriage carrying food, fodder and medicinal materials seemed to be on fire!
He Wenqin felt his heart was about to jump out of his throat. He hurriedly shouted, "Go put out the fire!"
Dozens of guards quickly ran towards the carriage!
They may not help the imperial envoy, but they must protect the food and fodder. This is their duty. If they fail to do so, they will lose their lives!
Because something happened in the inn, the assassins outside the door looked at each other, jumped up and stabbed towards He Wenqin!
When the people saw this, they fled in all directions!
For a moment, there were flashes of swords and shadows outside the inn!
The men in black were Qi Moli's secret guards, and they were quite skilled, but he didn't expect that the seven or eight assassins disguised as civilians were also masters!
The two sides were evenly matched and it was difficult to determine the winner, but the other side had twice as many people after all!
If we continue fighting, we will probably suffer losses!
Si Jinxing narrowed his eyes and calmly took out a small crossbow!
She placed the crossbow on the window frame, took aim, and shot from a distance of more than ten meters!
In just five breaths, he knocked down three powerful assassins!
With Si Jinxing's assistance, the four black-clad secret guards immediately turned the situation around!
After a while, those men disguised as ordinary people were captured alive!
Gu Anxu looked at the thing in Si Jinxing's hand, and his eyes were shining with gold!
He was a doctor, but he also had profound martial arts skills! He had practiced martial arts since he was a child, so he was naturally interested in weapons!
He couldn't help but ask: "County Master, what is this?"
Seeing that he was very interested, Si Jinxing handed it over and explained:
"The bow and arrow the prince gave me is a new type of bow and arrow. It has greater power, longer range, and better accuracy."
Gu Anxu looked carefully, pointed at the long box at the top, and asked:
"I didn't see the county lady adding any new arrows just now. Could there be some trick here?"
Si Jinxing glanced at the entrance to the inn, and seeing that He Wenqin had the situation under control, he turned around and said:
“Yes, there is space for five arrows in here at once.
It greatly saves the time of loading arrows during combat! After all, on the battlefield, time is everything! "
When Gu Anxu heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up. There were such wonderful ideas in this world!
Although he liked this thing very much, he only played with it for a moment before returning it to Si Jinxing.
This is King Mo Ying's thing, he dare not look at it any longer...
At this moment, Bai Xi outside the carriage quietly reminded:
"Princess, Jia Wensheng is here!"
Si Jinxing looked up and looked outside. He showed up at this time. It was...
