Chapter 701

Sure enough, as Zhu Yuanyuan expected, Jiankang had to open the city gates after the city was closed for ten days.However, each city gate is heavily guarded, and no matter who enters or exits, it must be strictly inspected.

Disguising as a caravan and going out of the city is obviously not feasible, Zimo intends to take the risk and ask everyone to pretend to be people from the Pengcheng Palace, using the pretext of transporting fake copper coins out of the city.

However, there were people of all ages in this group, especially Zhu Yuanyuan, who had an eye-catching figure, she really didn't look like a craftsman in a workshop.

When everyone was at a loss, Mo Yao brought back a small bamboo tube, saying that someone had given it to He Yi, and He Yi gave a secret signal to hand over the bamboo tube to Mo Yao.

When everyone read the news in the bamboo tube, they couldn't help but become more puzzled.There was no inscription on it, nor did it explain why, but simply wrote a sentence, "At [-]th, leave the north city gate with the team."

Zhu Yuanyuan was very puzzled, the sixteenth day, isn't that tomorrow?Although they have a lot of eyeliners in Jiankang City, they are all hidden at this time in order not to reveal their identities.Is this person who shot in the dark an enemy or a friend?
"In any case, I still have to try." Zimo read the news again and again, and after confirming that he could find no other clues, he calmly said: "The general will be more dangerous if he stays in the city for a day. Now the city is full of people. It is only a matter of time before the imperial guards are found."

Tan Daoji also agreed: "The news of Jiankang has not been spread out. In a few days, Qiu Chi will definitely notice something different. If Yu'er sent troops to the Southern Song Dynasty because of this, there will be no room for turning things around."

Zhu Yuanyuan thought for a while, and then handed over her seal to Mo Yao, "Since you plan to burn the boat, you must be fully prepared. Please go and inform the spies in the city. If anything happens, you must do your best to protect the general. "

Mo Yao nodded, "Don't worry." After speaking, he sneaked out of the cellar to arrange staff.

Before dawn on the second day, everyone sneaked out of the workshop, avoiding pedestrians all the way to the north gate.

Everyone was very disturbed, because they didn't know who they were waiting for, or even where they should wait before they could connect with the messenger.

It wasn't until daybreak that more and more people came in and out of the city gate that there was a faint noise from the other side of the long street.

When the team got closer, everyone was surprised to find that this team was actually from the Wang family.

When the team arrived in front of the city gate, the leader of the team went forward first, holding a waist card and said to the soldier guarding the gate: "My master is going to Qingzhou today by the order of the emperor and the prince, to take charge of the local military and administration. Please let me go quickly, lest Time wasted."

When Bingtou saw the Wang family's waist card, he immediately shortened a bit, flattering the tall carriage behind him: "The last general was ordered to check the carriages and horses here, there are many offenses, please manage Haihan. I don't know today It is an adult from the Wang family who left the city."

The curtain of the carriage was rolled up little by little by the servants, revealing Wang Hua's weathered face.

As the pillar of the Wang family, even if Wang Hua just sat still in the carriage, his aura was very compelling.He didn't even look at Bingtou, he just said to the steward with a straight face: "Hurry up and get on the road."

After speaking, he made a gesture, and the servants at the side hurriedly put down the bamboo curtain of the carriage.

Bingtou quickly realized that the whole city is now searching for General Tan. It seems that the Wang family is on the side of King Pengcheng, and they have pleased the prince so quickly, taking over the Tan family's position in Qingzhou.

Although political matters are important, but... the soldier looked at the back of the carriage with some embarrassment, and the convoy could not be seen at a glance.

I have long heard that the clan is extravagant, but now Bingtou has seen it.Qingzhou is also considered a rich place, and there is no shortage of supplies.But this Mr. Wang went to Qingzhou to take up his post, so he almost demolished the house and moved there.

Bingtou said fawningly: "The general knows that Mr. Wang has important tasks, but there are too many people in your group, and you have brought so many boxes... If you don't check... I'm afraid the general will not be able to explain..."

The steward's eyes almost stood up at this time, looking at the soldiers like a fool, he pointed to the convoy behind, and asked incredulously: "This is the convoy of the Wang family, are you sure you dare to open the cages one by one for inspection? No wonder I didn't remind you, if anything in this car is damaged, even if I sell you, I won't be able to pay for it!"

Bingtou's face was as bitter as if he had eaten a whole bowl of yellow lotus. He was about to let the Wang family pass by with his eyes closed, when he heard Wang Hua's voice from the carriage, "Open the box. I am in a high position. You should follow the holy order."

The steward hurriedly bowed to the carriage, turned his head and snorted coldly at the soldier, and then shouted to the team behind: "Open the box!"

Bingtou only felt that he was not a human being inside and outside. Who would have thought that he could offend the Wang family by guarding the city gate... He walked past the steward cautiously, and listened to the steward's stern voice: "Be careful."

Naturally, Bingtou didn't dare to poke with knives and turn over with his hands like checking the boxes and cages of ordinary people.He just took a symbolic look at each cage before planning to let them go.

But before he could say anything, there was a sudden yelling in the west of the city!From a distance, someone shouted: "It's the Tan family rushing to the city gate! Hurry up and help!"

Bingtou was taken aback, and before he could react, he heard Wang Hua in the carriage yell: "You don't have to hurry to help! If you run away and commit crimes, you can go and ask yourself to resign!"

Bingtou looked at the steward at the side inexplicably, then pointed to his nose and asked, "Master Wang, are you talking to your subordinates?"

The steward raised his eyes again, "Could it be that there are other city gate soldiers here?! You are here to catch criminals, and now the criminals are going to escape from the west gate, what are you doing standing here?!"

Bingtou slapped his head, feeling that it was so reasonable, he quickly called up his men and horses to rush towards the west gate, leaving only two soldiers to maintain order at the north gate.

The two soldiers who stayed behind dared to challenge the Wang family, they let the Wang family out of the city without even daring to look at them.

After leaving the city, the Wang family walked another three miles, and stopped in a forest outside the city before they stopped under Wang Hua's signal.

The steward drove all the accompanying people to one side to rest, leaving Wang Hua to say goodbye to Tan Daoji.

Wang Hua glanced in the direction of the city gate, and said to Tan Daoji: "Take care, General. Wang can only be sent here. The imperial army may soon come after him. If Wang stays here, he can delay them for a while. "

Tan Daoji never expected that the Wang family would help him in times of crisis.Once the clan and the poor family were at the same level in the court, the Tan family and the Wang family have always been peaceful on the surface.

At this time, Tan Daoji was filled with emotions, and he clasped his fists at Wang Hua and said, "Thank you for your kindness."

Wang Hua waved his hand and said frankly: "What Wang did was not entirely to help the general. As the head of the clan, the Wang family naturally cannot only care about immediate interests."

Wang Hua also clasped his fists at Tan Daoji and said, "My dog, please take care of my dog."

Tan Daoji took a deep breath, said "take care", turned and left.
