The Reborn Lao Tzu Is the Emperor

Chapter 193 Lead the snake out of the hole
Zhao Dongting's chariot arrived outside the palace, and the chariots and horses of all the officials followed slowly in order of rank.

The Huanglong Forbidden Army is all armed with long spears, one person in three steps, and one flag in nine steps, firmly blocking the people on both sides of the street.

The timing of Zhao Dongting's chariot leaving the palace was very precise, it was just when the sky was just beginning to light up.

All the people saw his chariot clearly, and they all shouted: "Long live the emperor! Long live the emperor!"

Because of the arrival of Zhao Dongting, Leizhou has become a paradise in troubled times.His prestige in Leizhou can be seen in the shouts of the tide at this time.

The civil servants and military generals in the chariots or horses behind all smiled when they saw Zhao Dongting being so supported by the people, and even the civil servants sitting in the sedan chair couldn't help but hold their heads high.

Until the convoy slowly left the west gate of Haikang County, the shouts of the people on both sides continued.

Sitting in the chariot, Zhao Dongting suddenly pushed down a wooden mechanism about the length of his middle finger beside the soft couch.

With a crackling sound, steel plates suddenly fell from all sides of the chariot, protecting the entire chariot.

The interior of the chariot suddenly seemed a little dark.

Concubine Yang Shu was surprised: "Yes, this is it?"

Zhao Dongting said: "Mother, if the child does not expect it, this trip to Wuliang Temple will not be peaceful."

Because it is the New Year's Eve, most of the small officials in the court have already taken their annual leave, and the tax payment has been suspended.He didn't know what the nobles were planning.

It is easy to hide open spears, but difficult to defend against hidden arrows, Zhao Dongting does not want to be assassinated in a daze.These steel plates were specially added by him to the chariot by skilled craftsmen from the Ministry of Military Industry, in order to prevent someone from being assassinated.

If it is said that if you suffer from a trap, you will gain a wisdom. Zhao Dongting has suffered countless traps now, and if you don't grow your brain, then you are really stupid.

The light of the oil lamp flickered lightly.

Outside the chariot, there were only the sound of neatly clashing armor, the sound of horses' hooves, and the voices of the common people shouting long live.

The road outside Haikang County has been widened, and now it can accommodate more than ten horses walking side by side.On both sides, there are hills that are not tall and straight, overgrown with weeds.

After a few miles out of the city, the people gradually became less and less, and the trees in the nearby mountains and forests gradually became lush.

The defense of the Huanglong Forbidden Army appeared to be more stringent, and it had become two steps and one man.

Not long after, they arrived at the place where Yang Yidong and Concubine Yang Shu were assassinated.There are steep peaks on both sides, towering trees, and the forest is dark.

Even the countless Taoist priests leading the way showed a little dignified expression.

Before the imperial court moved to Leizhou, it was the most frequent place for bandits.

Zhao Da drove his horse to the side of Zhao Dongting's chariot, and shouted softly into it: "Your Majesty, you have arrived at Guidang Valley."

"Ah."

Zhao Dongting's voice, which was somewhat dull because of the steel plate barrier, came from the chariot, "Let all the flying dragon soldiers be careful."

"Yes!"

Zhao Da took the order and raised his spear.Among the flying dragon soldiers, someone took out his crossbow and nocked the arrow to the string.

Because it was just dawn, the air was very cold.

Zhao Dongting's chariot was surrounded and headed for Guidang Valley.The flag was whistling by the wind.

After more than ten minutes, it was about to leave the valley. At this time, there was a sudden movement in the mountains and forests on both sides.

Someone suddenly rushed down from the forest.

All the Huanglong Imperial Guards and Feilong soldiers shouted, "Enemy attack! Enemy attack!"

Concubine Yang Shu and Ying Er's expressions changed slightly in the chariot.

Zhao Dongting still looked like Gujing Wubo, just sighed softly, "You guys are too hasty..."

It was rare for him to leave the palace, thinking that if those nobles dared to attack him, they would probably choose the time when he went to Wuliangguan.After arriving in Guidang Valley, he saw that there was no movement on both sides for a long time, and he thought that those nobles were going to accept it, but he didn't expect that some of them would choose to assassinate after all.

At this point in the Southern Song Dynasty, his status as emperor could not restrain everyone.The higher the level of people, the harder it is to deter them.

Whoosh arrows sounded.

There were not many people rushing out from the forests on both sides, only a few hundred people, but they walked vigorously, obviously all of them were Lianjiazi.

They rushed straight to Zhao Dongting's chariot.

The few people in the lead pushed aside the arrows that were shot in front of them one after another, and they were even rare masters.

In this era, there are too many people in the world who are willing to sacrifice their lives for money.

"Escort!"

Zhao Da raised his gun and shouted.

All the flying dragon soldiers abandoned their horses, and the Huanglong imperial army rushed towards the assassins rushing out of the forest on both sides.

The sound of fighting started.

Concubine Yang Shu said sadly: "Yes, you worked so hard for Leizhou, why would someone want to assassinate you?"

Her bright eyes showed strong resentment, recalling the scene when Yang Yidong was assassinated and died.

These days, Liu Hongyi continued to lead the army to wipe out the bandits in Leizhou, but unexpectedly, someone came to assassinate Zhao Dongting.

Zhao Dongting murmured, "It's hard for one person to be as good as a hundred people..."

He tapped lightly on the table with his right hand, "It's just that I'm not worried about these mobs, but the people lurking in the dark."

His voice was full of murderous intent.

These days, he sent out all the people from the General Information Department and Wudingtang to hide in Haikang County as civilians, and got a lot of news.

Even if those Tingyuge assassins were among the refugees, they could not escape the eyes and ears of the Military Intelligence Department.

I just don't know, do they also plan to come to this muddy water?

Zhao Dongting thought to himself, Ting Yuge probably wouldn't let go of such a good opportunity, right?

He didn't let Huanglong's imperial army clear the field, just to lure the snake out of the hole!Hearing that these assassins in Yuge were not dead, he was always uneasy.

And just as he was thinking, someone knocked on the window outside the car, and a joyful voice came in, "Your Majesty, the people listening to Yuge have arrived."

Zhao Dongting's eyes flashed brightly, "Let the priests of Wudingtang do it, be sure to kill all these Tingyu Pavilion assassins!"

Le flew towards the back of the convoy for nothing, where there were hundreds of maids and eunuchs.

Most of them were flustered, but dozens of them were radiant and motionless.

They were enshrined in Zhongwu Dingtang. After investigating in Haikang County, they returned to the palace last night. Under Zhao Dongting's arrangement, they dressed up as eunuchs and followed the convoy.

Le Wuxuan approached the dozens of people and said: "All worshipers, follow me to kill thieves!"

Dozens of people lifted off the bloated eunuch costumes, pulled out the weapons hidden inside, and followed Le Wuwei to kill to the left.

At this time, the killers of Tingyu Pavilion had already plundered into the crowd.

Su Liuyi, Zhang Jue and other generals who were skilled in martial arts also planned to make a move, but they were stopped by the Huanglong imperial army.The Wuliang Taoist priests in front of the convoy had no weapons, and they were also guarded by the Huanglong Imperial Army at this time.

Liu Hongyi and the others have carefully considered that Guidang Valley is the most suitable place for assassination, so all the people who are arranged here are cronies under his command.

Hundreds of flying dragon soldiers and a few masters of the Huanglong Forbidden Army quickly blocked the "crowd" at the foot of the mountain.

The Tingyuge assassins, who were obviously much more skilled, passed the crowd and headed straight for Zhao Dongting's chariot.

Li Ge was indeed among the crowd.

Zhao Dongting lived deep in the palace, and it was as difficult for him to assassinate, so he really did not miss this opportunity.

However, when he saw Le Wuwei leading dozens of masters to kill them, he knew instantly that he had been tricked.

This made De Lige's cold face change slightly.

He suddenly regretted it.

In fact, he thought that the emperor of the Song Dynasty might arrange a follow-up move to wait for them, but he still couldn't calm down and let this "good opportunity" go.

He swept across with his long sword and beheaded the two flying dragon soldiers to the ground. Looking back, those mobs had been firmly suppressed by the flying dragon soldiers in this short period of time.

Although they are all Lianjiazi, they are just wandering bandits in the rivers and lakes after all, fighting on both sides is far inferior to the flying dragon army's bravery.

The army is good at combined attack battle formations, which the rangers of the rivers and lakes do not have.

"retreat!"

Li Ge looked down at his left shoulder, his voice was cold.

However, the dozens of Yuge elites he led had just turned around, and Le Wuwei who was running towards them shouted, "Stop them!"

Zhao Hu, who was guarding Zhao Dongting's chariot, heard this and shouted: "Kill!"

Before the words fell, he took the lead in galloping towards Li Ge and the crowd listening to the Yuge killer.

During the chaotic battle, hundreds of flying dragon soldiers galloped like two torrents, and quickly circled behind the killer of Tingyu Pavilion.

Zhao Hu laughed loudly, "Where is Lige bastard? I have been waiting for you for a long time!"

He was very happy at this time.

Li Ge repeatedly assassinated Zhao Dongting, and almost succeeded, which made him, the deputy commander of the flying dragon soldiers, hold back his anger.

Li Ge's eyes became colder, and his two sword eyebrows raised, "Kill!"

Then he and dozens of Yuge killers went out of the encirclement, trying to rush back to the woods on the left.

Li Ge jumped up suddenly, striding on the shoulders of the people in front, his speed was so fast that he clicked his tongue.

He is a killer, not a general in charge of the army, and at this moment he seems to be planning to give up the Tingyu Pavilion killers he brought with him.

These people are nothing more than minions in Ting Yu Pavilion.No matter how many casualties there were, he didn't care about it.

"Where to go?"

But at this time, there was a flash of sword light in the middle of the flying dragon soldiers. One person floated up, took off his armor, stepped lightly on the horse's back, and his figure passed over the heads of the listening Yuge killers like walking on a flat river.

Tsing Yi Sword Immortal Jun Tian Fang.
