The road of the farmer's fortune and the imperial examination

Chapter 1164 Hijacking
I have to say that the person behind that is really smart, knowing that this is the only way for Prince Gong to return to Beijing.Ambush here, waiting for him to be sent to the door.

Who could this person be?Could it be the fourth child?The expression on Prince Gong's face was a bit distorted. He received the news that the fourth child arrived in the capital before him. If it's not the fourth child, who else?
Or maybe the second child?Thinking about it this way, Prince Gong also felt that it was very possible.

After all, the second child is already the prince, and he didn't want these brothers to come back to snatch his throne, so he dealt with them all on the way.

There is a way to verify this matter. If the fourth child was also ambushed, then the second child probably did it.

Otherwise, it will be the ruthless hand of the fourth brother.

Prince Gong was itching his teeth with hatred, but he didn't know that Prince Jing was also suffering the same thing over there.

Holding the sword, Prince Jing panted heavily, and began to turn a mechanism in the house.

"Have you cleaned up along the way? Don't let people see the traces." Prince Jing watched the Kang in the house move aside, and then a dark hole was revealed.

"Don't worry! My lord, everything has been tidied up, but it's a bit rushed, so I have to leave someone to clean it up again. I am wronged and you hide for a while, and when those officials leave, I will report it immediately."

Yan Hui was a little anxious. When he went out to inquire just now, he found that an official was searching from house to house.They knew that they must be searching for the assassin who went to the palace to assassinate today.

Only in this way, they are easily exposed.This small courtyard on South Street was bought before, and it took a lot of time to dig a secret passage in it, just in case it was needed.

Prince Jing nodded, and then stepped into the tunnel.

As soon as he stepped into the secret passage, his face darkened. Just now he went out to meet an old man in Chaozhong, but he didn't want to be ambushed on the way.But there are very few people who know that he came to the capital, except for a few people around him.

Could it be that something went wrong with him?But these people were carefully cultivated by him. Could it be that they would betray him so easily?

No!He's still holding onto them, no way.Prince Jing shook his head, thinking that the possibility was very small.

Then he thought of Prince Gong, could it be that the boss has already arrived in the capital and has figured out his whereabouts?

Or maybe the second child?Now that the father has passed away, the second child, as the crown prince, is the next king.It is normal to closely monitor these brothers.

How can you allow others to snore beside the couch?And they are staring at each other, does the second child still dare to sit back and relax?

Maybe the second child already knew about their coming to the capital, so he sent someone to ambush them.

However, if it was really the second child, why didn't they intercept and kill them halfway, and wait until they came to the capital before doing it?

Prince Jing was puzzled. He recalled the scene of the fight just now, and suddenly felt that those people's martial arts moves were a bit strange.

Although the opponent also used the long sword, it always felt a bit inconsistent.Compared with those who are used to using long swords like them, it seems a bit jerky.

Prince Jing pondered for a moment, then opened his eyes wide.His face was gloomy, he clenched the sword in his hand, and after a long while he sneered and said: "The second child is such a waste, the emperor made him the crown prince, he really has no eyes!"

"Stop! I'm calling you, why are you running?" One of the officials chased a man to the entrance of the alley, yelling repeatedly.

Seeing this, the rest of the officials hurriedly chased after him, and the person in front ran wildly, ignoring the pursuit of the people behind.

The officials who were searching Liu Su'er's house heard the movement and ran out of the house immediately.

Liu Su'er heaved a sigh of relief, those people walked around the house just now, and didn't find anyone suspicious.He was about to leave, but now he was attracted by the movement outside the door, so he left quickly.

Now that the people are gone, they are safe.In fact, it didn't matter at all. After they arrived in the capital, except for that time when they intercepted Gu Chengyu's carriage, there was no other abnormal behavior.

Uncle Qin and Mama Tan went out to set up stalls selling wontons every day, so there should be no doubts.These people must be arresting important people. It seems that these few days they must keep their own place and not act rashly.

Uncle Qin and Mother Tan had sweat stains on their foreheads, and they were all relieved when they saw that they had left.

Gu Chengyu frowned deeply when he heard that the movement in this alley suddenly became louder.

"My lord! Did you catch the assassin?" Ming Yan's spirit was lifted, was he going to be rewarded so soon?

"My lord, let me go and have a look, I wish them a helping hand. Those assassins are all skilled in martial arts, and these officials are probably no match for them."

Gu Chengyu opened the curtain, glanced at the already hazy sky, "Let's go together!"

The two got out of the carriage and rushed towards the noisy place.

"I tell you to stop, but you still run. If you run again, when I catch you, I will make you suffer."

With such a shout, the officials who were searching from house to house immediately left the yard.

When the man saw that the officials were getting worse, he couldn't help being very nervous. He didn't expect that he would really fall down today.Unless he can fly out from here, there is no way to escape.

Liu Su'er is not at all interested in what happened outside the door, they have to be careful in doing things now.This kind of thing, they are afraid to avoid it.

Taking a few steps forward, Liu Su'er was about to close the courtyard door.Who would have thought that a black shadow rushed over quickly, with such force that it knocked her to the ground.

"Quick, come here."

Hearing that the people behind were chasing after him, this person was very anxious.Seeing Liu Su'er who fell on the ground and was about to get up, her eyes lit up.

Gu Chengyu and Mingyan hurried into this alley, the terrain here is a bit complicated.The yard is not neatly located and looks very messy.

This place is outside the south city, far away from the imperial palace, and the residents are more messy.Most of them live in two or three families in a small courtyard.

These residents may be small traders, or they may be doing odd jobs in the capital.In short, there is everything.

Go a little further south, and it's even more chaotic than here, completely exiled territory.

"Don't move, or I'll kill this girl." A burly man held a dagger around a girl's neck.

"Miss Liu, let her go!" One of the three officials who searched the Liu's yard just now shouted loudly.

He is not married yet!If such a beautiful girl were to be his wife, he would wake up from his dreams with laughter.

"Su'er! Let go of my niece!" Tan's mother jumped anxiously, the change was too sudden.

Uncle Qin is also very anxious, the girl is in the hands of this man, although he can do some fists and kicks, he dare not act rashly!

"You good man, let my niece go!"
