Chapter 60: The vulgar things that make you stupid
The guard was sent by Shou'an Palace to pick her up. He was a member of the Imperial Guard. He only took a quick look and said, "Your Excellency, they are not Imperial Guards. They are the personal guards of the Nineteenth Prince."
"The Nineteenth Prince's personal guard?"
"Yes, they followed the Nineteenth Prince back from Luzhou." The guard driving the car replied, "Look at the curved swords on their waists, they are different from our Central Plains cavalry. I guess the Nineteenth Prince wants to send the young marquis back home."
Fang Qianxue took a closer look and indeed saw the cold light on the scabbards of the cavalrymen's swords.
"Don't go back yet, follow and take a look!"
"Yes." The guard didn't think there was anything unusual and agreed.
This was at the feet of the emperor in the capital city, and the other party's carriage was from the Liaoyuan Marquisate, so generally no one dared to do anything.
But he is just an ordinary person. The King of Bac Ninh is not an ordinary person.
Fang Qianxue chased the carriage of Liaoyuan Marquis Mansion and turned into an alley. This was not the way to Liaoyuan Marquis Mansion, but the only way to the Princess' Mansion. It seemed that Jiang Xu had also discovered the abnormality, so he wanted to go to the Princess' Mansion for help.
But before they reached the Princess's Mansion, a guard jumped up and blew off the roof of the carriage of the Marquis Liaoyuan's Mansion with a sword.
The swords of the Mobei warriors cut through iron like mud. Jiang Xu watched the roof of the car being lifted off. The light suddenly brightened in front of his eyes, and rain came in. He felt that his death was approaching.
He had lived cautiously and carefully for the past decade, always treading on thin ice, but he never expected that bad luck would not let him go.
"Who are you?" The man's voice remained steady.
"Young Marquis Jiang, please get out of the carriage." The cavalry leader had already put his knife to the neck of the Jiang family's coachman.
Jiang Xu had no choice but to slowly get out of the car, observing the other party's attire as he walked: "Are you from the Mobei Army?"
"Young Marquis, you have good eyesight. Our prince doesn't want your life, but he wants your legs." The cavalry leader's eyes were full of contempt, as if he didn't want to waste time talking to this immature boy. "If you know what's good for you, just lie on the ground and let the brothers beat you with sticks."
It was drizzling and there were few pedestrians in the alley. The few pedestrians who were there were frightened by the scene and fled in panic.
"Do you still have the law?" Jiang Xu glared at the cavalry leader and raised his head, "Although I am a hostage, only your majesty can kill me! The King of Beining is not qualified."
"Bang!" As soon as the words fell, a cavalryman rode over and hit Jiang Xu's back with his scabbard.
Jiang Xu's thin body instantly fell to the ground like a leaf in the wind.
"Young Marquis Jiang is really good at talking, but talking is useless in Mobei. We only care about strength," the cavalry leader sneered, kicked the Jiang family coachman off the carriage, and looked Jiang Xu up and down. "With your small body, to be honest, there is no point in killing you. But who made you offend our prince? Come on, take action!"
"Stop! Let me go! I want to see Xiao Mingzhe!" Jiang Xu was held on the left and right by two soldiers. He racked his brains but could not remember when he had offended King Beining.
Not far away in the teahouse, a woman with a sleeve embroidered with a large cloud brushed across the table, and her slender fingers held up the teacup: "Want to see me? Oh, who do you think you are?"
Guard Xuelang looked at the scene downstairs, and his eyes suddenly lit up: "Your Highness, look! Someone is coming, it seems to be... the palace soldiers from the Princess's residence!"
Xiao Mingzhe glanced with his eagle eyes and saw Fang Qianxue's carriage. His face suddenly darkened: "She actually went to the Princess's Mansion to ask for help for him!"
"Your Highness," said Snow Wolf, "why don't you stop? We don't need to offend Liaoyuan Marquis's Mansion and draw the Jiang family's anger to Luzhou, so that the Jiang family and the emperor can only fight each other."
Xiao Mingzhe threw a dagger-like look over, and Xuelang lowered his head hastily: "But that Jiang Xu is really abominable. He relied on his good looks to seduce Yi'an County Master. He should have his legs broken!"
He is really rude. He dares to disobey the prince. Does he want to die? He should just follow the prince's wishes.
"Go and pass the order to Qingcong to stop." Xiao Mingzhe changed his mind and threw the teacup to the ground with a bang.
"Yes!" Snow Wolf ran down the stairs "dong dong dong".
Xiao Mingzhe leaned on the square table with his hand, looking at the "Beauty Saves the Hero" downstairs, muttering to himself: "I thought the daughter of the Fang family was a beautiful lady, but she is still a vulgar person who judges people by appearance and loses her mind because of lust."
After saying this, he became even more depressed. He is not bad in terms of appearance!
The street corner was a mess.
The soldiers from the Princess's Mansion negotiated with the Mobei Army for a few words, and then a guard came and whispered a few words to the cavalry leader, and the Mobei Army withdrew.
Jiang Xu's head was still buzzing and he looked confused. Why would King Beining suddenly want to break his legs?
Their Liaoyuan Marquisate had always kept its distance from the Mobei Army, and Emperor Ming was extremely suspicious, so the two sides often coordinated with each other to divert suspicion from the capital, but those just now were indeed the Mobei Army.
