Chapter 5 Escape(1/2)
"Prince Xiaoyao, I will personally send you on the road today." As soon as he finished speaking, he flashed out and jumped into the air like a fierce cheetah. He swung the long sword in his hand, and the air was squeaking like it was torn apart.
Li Xiaoyao hurriedly blocked the knife.
when!
The two swords collided and sparked.
Li Xiaoyao was shaken back a few steps and stared at Qin Chuan with a fierce look.
No, if you continue to fight like this, you will definitely die.
A hero will not suffer any loss in front of him.
You have to find a chance to escape first.
Li Xiaoyao calmed down and rushed out, holding up the long sword in his right hand.
With a whoosh.
He suddenly slashed towards Qin Chuan.
But Qin Chuan was just a little bit, and Li Xiaoyao took a few steps back again.
Qin Chuan looked at Li Xiaoyao contemptuously.
As soon as Li Xiaoyao stabilized his body, he turned around and rushed out, with a knife falling down, and a servant fell into a pool of blood.
"Want to run?"
"Where can you escape in Xuancheng?"
Qin Chuan sneered.
Li Xiaoyao jumped over the wall and escaped from the Qin Mansion.
The servants opened the general's mansion and chased him out.
Qin Chuan held the knife and followed closely.
Xuancheng is his world, and he holds 100,000 border troops in Xuancheng.
Where can Li Xiaoyao escape?
On the quiet street, a black shadow ran rapidly, followed by more than a dozen servants holding torches and long sticks.
Whoosh!
Several piercing sounds breaking through the air!
Li Xiaoyao stopped and looked back and saw that more than a dozen servants fell to the ground and died.
He frowned slightly.
He did not arrange secret guards tonight to protect him. Who are these people who helped him?
"Prince Xiaoyao, my subordinates are here to protect you by the imperial edict of the Empress Dowager."
More than a dozen men in black said on their knees.
Queen Mother Lu’s man?
There is no way that there are Empress Dowager Lu’s people in Xuancheng. If so, how could the members of the secret guard not report to him?
Could it be the person Li Dequan brought to him last time?
Has the Queen Mother guessed that the prince would kill me?
"How many of you have?" Li Xiaoyao asked.
"Your Majesty, we have thirteen people." said the man in black.
Thirteen people?
Damn!
He said anxiously: "Get up! Come back to the palace with me, Qin Chuan's large group of troops will catch up immediately."
"Prince, you'd better go to Beijing with us overnight!" the leading man in black suggested.
Isn’t it a matter of falling into the trap when I go back to the royal palace now?
Li Xiaoyao glanced at the corpses in the distance and said coldly: "Go back to the royal palace!"
Then, he turned around and ran away quickly. He didn't want to escape from Qin Chuan's palm and fall into the empress dowager's clutch again.
His life must be held in his own hands.
Several men in black, as soon as they realized, Li Xiaoyao had already run away. They looked at the direction of the general's mansion, thought about Empress Dowager Lu's imperial decree, shook their heads, and hurriedly followed Li Xiaoyao.
"Prince!"
Outside the palace, two guards saw Li Xiaoyao's figure from afar and hurriedly went up to him. Seeing the man in black chasing behind him, they quickly drew their swords toward each other.
"Our own people." Li Xiaoyao said, but did not stop, but rushed into the palace directly.
In the backyard, in front of a rockery, Li Xiaoyao pressed the button above.
The huge rockery was split from the middle by a giant axe of the sky, and moved to both sides.
A dark passage appeared in front of Li Xiaoyao. Without saying a word, he rushed into the passage.
This passage took half a year and went straight to a forest outside Xuancheng from the backyard of Xiaoyao Prince's Mansion.
"Lin Xiao, your prince is being chased!" Li Xiaoyao, who had just run out of the passage, shouted to the sky. His shout echoed countless times in the quiet mountains and forests, and then came back to his ears.
"See the prince!" Several black-armored soldiers jumped out of the trees from the surrounding grass and shouted on their knees.
"Where is Lin Xiao?"
"Your Majesty, it's a normal night training tonight, so General Lin..."
"never mind."
Since he was training with his soldiers, he must be not in the base. Li Xiaoyao curled his lips and said, "Gather all the soldiers in the camp to enter the palace from the secret passage. I will start a massacre tonight."
"No!" The two black-armored soldiers nodded and saluted, then rushed to the base at a very fast speed.
...
Looking at the bodies of more than a dozen housekeepers on the street, Qin Chuan frowned.
A soldier examined the wound on his body and replied: "General, these are all wounds caused by the killing of bows and arrows."
"Bow and arrow?" Qin Chuan was a little surprised!
Could it be that Li Xiaoyao raised private soldiers and made private weapons?
He wants to rebel?
But where did he get the money?
No! Impossible!
He shook his head, and then his face darkened.
Queen Mother Lu?
It must be that Empress Dowager Lu sent someone to protect Li Xiaoyao, except for this, there is no other possibility.
"Is there any abnormal movement in the Xiaoyao Palace?" Qin Chuan asked.
"General, don't worry, we have surrounded the Xiaoyao Prince's Mansion. Even if it is a bird, don't even think about flying out."
Qin Chuan nodded, then turned around and ran towards the Xiaoyao Palace.
Outside the Xiaoyao Palace, two guards drew their swords and faced each other coldly.
Hundreds of border soldiers, holding spears, broke the outer periphery of the Xiaoyao Palace.
Qin Chuan jumped off his horse in front of the palace gate, and a soldier pulled the horse aside.
"General!" shouted the soldiers.
Qin Chuan nodded with a serious expression and said, "What's going on inside?"
"Go back to the general, there is no movement inside." A soldier replied.
Without Qin Chuan's general order, they would not dare to break into the mansion at will. After all, this is a prince's mansion, and they might be beheaded.
Qin Chuan glanced at the two guards outside the palace who held long swords in their hands and said coldly: "Get in and ask your prince to get out, otherwise, I will lead people into the palace in person."
"General Qin, you might as well ask him to go back! Our prince said that he had already spread the news to the Queen Mother. If you dare to kill the prince, you are rebelling. General Qin, what is the crime of rebellion? I don't think it's too much to say, right?"
A guard said without being humble or arrogant.
Qin Chuan frowned. It turned out that Empress Dowager Lu sent someone to secretly protect Li Xiaoyao.
If I rushed into the mansion and killed Li Xiaoyao now, I would have committed a serious crime of rebellion, and it would have also led to the involvement of the entire Qin clan.
It will even have an adverse impact on His Royal Highness's great cause of ascension to the throne.
He was not sure what the guard said now was true or false, but he did not dare to gamble.
Moreover, he had sent troops to trap Li Xiaoyao, and he was already his own possession.
