Chapter 53 Difficult

The day came when Fubi returned to Beijing. It was cloudy that day, and it was drizzling outside the north gate of Luzhou City.

Li Chuhou, the magistrate Li Chuhou, the general judge Xia Yu, the signing judge He Tan, the push official Pang Yuanying, the governor Hu Yan Shouxin and so on. There are no less than a hundred civil and military officials of Luzhou Prefecture who braved the rain walked out of the government office to see off the imperial envoy.

At the official pavilion ten miles outside the city, the banners were merging, and the gongs and drums were noisy. Although it was raining, the people who saw them off were enthusiastic.

Li Chuhou stood in front of the officials of Luzhou Prefecture and said goodbye to Fu Bi. Xia Yu accompanied him from time to time to pick up a sentence, asking about your majesty's dragon body, how the empress dowager was in a good mood, and what was new inside and outside the palace. Fu Bi answered one by one without any personal feelings.

Everyone had a time of greeting. Fu Bi made a conclusion in a few words, "Guys, I hate meeting you, but the performance of your colleagues is very good. After returning to Beijing, I will report to your majesty one by one. You have worked hard. I don't know when I will see you again today. Well, I will be sad if I talk too much. Bring wine. After everyone drank this glass of wine, I went back to Beijing, and everyone should go back to work!"

With the words of the imperial envoy, Li Chuhou waved his hand. A little official in cloth brought a pot of hot wine. Li Chuhou personally filled it for the imperial envoy. Fu Bi picked up the wine glass and saluted the officials in Luzhou Prefecture. "Everyone is an official of the same dynasty. Thank you for your hard work. Luzhou will rely on you in the future. Do it!"

All the officials present raised their wine glasses and drank them all. After getting on the horse, he only heard the officials of Luzhou Prefecture shouting again to send the imperial envoy back to Beijing...

The pronunciation was long, and it was not until Fu Bi walked far away that the people who saw him off slowly turned around and walked back to Fucheng.

Thirty miles north of Luzhou, there is a barren village called Sanjia Village. Because it is on the border between Luzhou and Shouzhou, there is no store in front of the village and no store behind. For many years, only three families have lived here, so it is called Sanjia Village.

It's drizzling in Sanjia Village today. Earlier, a group of horse dealers came. The leader had a horse face, a big hat and a pair of six-eared straw shoes on his feet. He always liked to turn his face sideways when he spoke. People around him called him the horse boss.

"Are all the people here?" Boss Ma asked in a low voice.

"Brother, don't worry, as long as your news is good, even if he is the emperor, he can't escape our hands."

"That's good. Take someone to hide the horses quickly. I'll walk around the village."

After saying that, Boss Ma clenched the single knife hanging around his waist and went to the village with five people.

Fubi's imperial guard left Luzhou Prefecture ten miles later and was in a place with another group of people halfway. This group of people rode a dark horse and wore black raincoats, and long sticks were hanging on the saddle bridge. The number of people was about a fire. When Fubi's honor guard came closer, this group of people stood by the roadside, nodded on one knee, and shouted loudly, "Waiting for Qin. Let's go back to Beijing!"

Because it was agreed in advance, when the imperial guard of honor passed by here, he paused for a moment. A personal soldier walked to the group of people by the roadside, clenched his fist and said, "Lord Fu said it's free of courtesy. Ask Zhao Ze to talk in the car!"

At this time, Zhao Ze was in this group. After hearing the words of the soldier, he quickly got up and stood up and saluted, "Thank you for your hard work. Zhao Ze doesn't know which car the imperial envoy is in.

The personal soldier looked at Zhao Ze up and down and felt a little familiar. It should be him. Thinking of this, he turned around and pointed to "the second car, you can go straight in."

Zhao Ze nodded and said that he stepped on the stones on the road and walked towards the second carriage. He came to the front and back and lifted the driving curtain and drilled in.

"Here you come" Fu Bi was half leaning on the soft cushion of the inner goose feathers, slightly tired.

"It's an adult. I'm going to bother you all the way." Zhao Ze was polite.

"I'm sorry to bother you, but what about your airship?" Fu Bi asked.

"According to the adult's will, I stopped at the Shangguanfu's house in Luzhou first, and my cousin also stayed in Luzhoufu while watching the business while waiting for the news of me coming to Beijing."

Fubi nodded, sat up behind him, knocked on the bamboo curtain covering the window, and the guards on the side of the car met and urged the honor guard to go back on the road. The direction was Shouzhou, hoping to arrive at the post station before nightfall.

The road to the north of Luzhou was quite rugged, and it was overcast and rainy. The two teams walked very slowly. They walked for more than two hours for more than three hours. When they arrived at the three villages on the border of Luzhou, they were already trapped. Fu Bi had no choice but to bury the pot to make rice and rest for an hour before going on the road.

The three villages are a lot of vegetation, mountains and rocks, and more snakes, insects and rat ants. Every rainy day, snakes and insects will be plagued in the village, and rat ants will be in groups, and it is the same today.

The sultry grass house was crowded with more than a dozen people, and there was no place to stay. Although it was uncomfortable, these people still endured.

"Brother, ask your brothers to do it"

"Wait a minute, let's do it when these dog officials are full," Boss Ma bit the straw and said gloomily.

"Yes, then do what the big brother wants..."

The room fell silent again, and the silence continued, waiting until the imperial guard began to eat.

"Big brother, it's been half an hour, do you want to do it?"

Boss Ma spit out the straw in his mouth and said, "It's on. Tell my brothers not to leave their mouths alive. They will give them all the gold, silver and jewelry at that time. Big brother, I just want the head of the dog officer!"

Under the order of Mr. Ma, several wolf calls suddenly came from the sky over the three villages. The sound was so bleak and cold that the officers and soldiers who ate half of the hot meal suddenly stopped and looked around.

When the sound of fighting sounded, Zhao Ze was eating with Fu Bi. His bodyguard Ouyang Chun sat on the edge of the forest more than ten steps away to roast chicken. Wu Liang was also there. Wu Er accompanied him to add some firewood from time to time.

"Ah..."

There was a sudden scream in the forest, and the head of a Song soldier rolled to the ground, and blood gushed out, dyeing a fallen leaf under his feet red.

This was only the beginning of the massacre in the afternoon. Just when the hearts of the soldiers in the forest were tight, countless heads gushed out from all directions. These people howled and ran wildly. They waved the steel knife in their hands and surrounded the woods in the south of the three villages. The way out had been sealed. It was impossible to live.

"Adults have horse thieves, ah..."

Before waiting for Fubi's own soldiers to report, the horse thief has been killed. More than a dozen strong horses are ambush with horse thieves with high martial arts skills. They keep waving the long knives in their hands and harvest people's lives like cutting melons and vegetables all the way. Half of the soldiers who defend the imperial envoy along the way have fallen down, and they are about to kill the convoy. .

I only heard Zhao Ze shout, "I'm going to fight!"

If you want to say what that guy is, Fu Bi may not know. When he saw it, it was already Zhao Ze and his party of ten people in a circle, including Fu Bi.

"Fire freely, be careful not to hurt your own people!"

As soon as Zhao Ze's words fell, the strange weapon in the hands of the ten people opened fire, and the firelight flashed away. Then a horse thief must fall to the ground. The speed was so fast that it was so sudden.

Ouyang Chun pulled the trigger and muttered in his heart, "This thing is really powerful. After avoiding this disaster, I will hide it secretly. It will definitely be useful to walk around the world in the future."

Having said that, this weapon is not omnipotent. Wu Liang knows this thing. Before coming, Zhao Ze's sister said that this thing is called a meteor rocket. It is powered by gunpowder, and the bamboo arrow is an arrow that hurts people. Each quiver is loaded with 30 rounds. This trip to Beijing, each person has three magazines. Don't save...

In general, this meteor rocket is not needed at all. Only on today's occasion, such a terrible occasion can the meteor rocket be used. The horse thief over there shouted and kept killing. The meteor rocket here couldn't help opening fire. Ouyang Chun was careful. After lighting the two magazine clips, he rushed to Close the rare weapon, and then pull out the short knife from the waist to fight with the horse thief.

Other people are different. They hit all the magazines in one go, and then pull out their knives to fight with the horse thieves.

Ouyang Chun, relying on his brave martial arts skills, cut down several horse thieves in one go, but even so could not change the fact that the Song army was slaughtered.

Wu Liang pulled Zhao Ze to fight and retreat. Fu Bi followed closely for fear of being hacked to death. All the soldiers around him had been sent out. At this time, although he was not powerless, compared with the real warrior, he could only be stabbed, so it was wise to follow Zhao Ze closely.

At the same time, there is also a guard in the clothes of a servant who follows Zhao Ze every inch. This man has good martial arts skills and has taken everyone to a bloody road.

Boss Ma stood on the hill not far away, looking at the fight at the foot of one side of the mountain. He walked back and forth on the battlefield. Suddenly, he found Fu Bi, dressed in official uniform, and was following several people to the mountain road west of the village. Seeing this, Boss Ma's eyes were full of fierce light. He quickly reached out and took a long bow. After trying out the bow string, he took out a carved arrow full of poison from the arrow pot. After taking a deep breath, he suddenly opened his bow and shot at the foot of the mountain.

The carved arrow broke through the air, and Fu Bi was running away and didn't find it at all. If it hadn't been for the martial arts servant servant beside Zhao Ze who shouted and lay down at the critical moment, Fu Bi's life would have been explained.

However, some things are often mixed. Just as the poisonous carved arrow was shot into the air, three eagles were shot over. This time, the servant who had been protecting Zhao Ze was very busy. The servant kept waving a short knife in his hand and shot down two cold arrows in one breath. When the cold arrow arrived, his physical strength was overdrawn, and the speed of his hands and feet obviously could not keep up with the judgment of his eyesight.

"Ah..."

At this moment, the third cold arrow hit the servant's arm. The moment the arrow broke into the body, half of the force of the arrow was removed on one side of his body. However, it was also shocked that the servant came out of a cold sweat and quickly scolded, "Hide behind that stone quickly..."

After hearing this person's words, Zhao Ze, Wu Liang and Fu Bi suddenly understood and quickly rolled and crawled behind a boulder in the road.

And as soon as the servant said, he only felt that his eyes shook, his body shook, and his whole body fell to the ground heavily. After falling down, he was unconscious...
