Da Qiao knew that Wang Ning had seen through herself, so she stopped pretending and tore off the fake white hair on her head, revealing her black hair. She walked out of the carriage directly, and she turned around and told Ling Zhi, "General Ling, please bring me a basin of water!"

Ling Zhi was stunned, he suddenly realized, and quickly commanded the soldiers, "Go get water!"

The soldiers rushed away, and fetched a basin of water from the well in a moment. Da Qiao took out a veil from her bag, and under the watchful eyes of the soldiers, she washed off the camouflage on her face, revealing her absolutely beautiful face. She rolled up her hair, that elegant and charming gesture even moved Wang Ning's heart. He finally understood why Marquis Wu wanted this woman so hard, she was indeed an unparalleled beauty in the world.

The surrounding soldiers exclaimed, it turned out that she was Mrs. Qiao, but why did she dress up as an old woman?

At this time, Zhang Hong walked forward slowly, his arm was pierced by the iron thorn on the window, and blood flowed out, he looked at Wang Ning coldly, "General Wang, if you want to kill me, just do it, why do you do it on purpose?" Make trouble, even I despise you."

Wang Ning hurriedly saluted and said: "Changshi misunderstood, I found that the horse's eyes were red and bloodshot, and I was about to go crazy, I was afraid that it would go crazy and hurt Chang Shi, so I stabbed it to death in time."

"So, you are here to save me?" Zhang Hong sneered mockingly.

"Exactly!"

Wang Ning spoke righteously, without any look of guilt on his face, Zhang Hong also had to admire his thick skin, but what kind of person Zhang Hong was, no matter how shrewd Wang Ning was, it was just the cunning of a small person, how could he It may be compared with Zhang Hong, who has the wisdom of a prime minister.

Zhang Hong ignored him, turned to Da Qiao and said, "Madam Qiao, since the carriage is broken, let's go on foot!"

Da Qiao turned around and followed Zhang Hong to the outside of the city. Wang Ning was anxious, and hurriedly stepped forward to stop them, "Zhang Changshi, you can leave, but Mrs. Qiao can't?"

"Why can't you go?"

Zhang Hong raised his voice and said loudly: "What a joke, Lieutenant Wang actually wants to imprison Mrs. Qiao, why do you have any shady purpose?"

Zhang Hong's voice was so loud that the surrounding soldiers could hear it clearly, Wang Ning secretly groaned in his heart, what should he do?At this time, Da Qiao also said loudly: "General Wang, I advise you to let me go, otherwise I will tell the truth, and the one who loses my reputation is not me!"

This is a direct threat. Wang Ning's face changed, but he reacted very quickly, and quickly said: "Madam, because the assassin has not been caught yet, and I don't know how many accomplices they have. I am very worried about Madam's safety. If Madam must If you want to leave, please allow me to guard Madam."

Without waiting for Zhang Hong to speak, he immediately ordered loudly to his opponent: "Come forward and protect Madam!"

Wang Ning is also betting that Zhang Hong will not allow Da Qiao to reveal the truth. After all, Zhang Hong is a courtier, and it is his duty to protect the name of the monarch.

Although Zhang Hong didn't want Da Qiao to tell the truth, he wouldn't let Wang Ning's men guard him either, and the two sides once again stalemate at the gate of the city.

At this moment, a soldier shouted: "The Marquis of Wu is here!"

Sun Quan came in person, Zhang Hong, Da Qiao and Wang Ning were all startled at the same time, how could Sun Quan come so coincidentally?Could it be that someone reported to him, but with the arrival of Sun Quan, the situation has not become complicated, but has become simpler. Wang Ning dare not make the decision to let Joe go, and desperately wants to keep Da Qiao, but Sun Quan can let Joe go. Zhang Hong immediately had a plan in mind.

Sun Quan received an urgent report. Zhang Changshi was attacked by the school lieutenant Wang Ning at the North City Gate. There was a bloody conflict between the two sides. Zhang Changshi was in danger. In a hurry, he hurriedly led his guards to come on horseback. Zhang Hong and Zhang Zhao were the two prime ministers he relied on most, and he never wanted to hear news of Zhang Hong's accident.

Sun Quan rushed into the city cave, and saw the dead horse on the ground at a glance. The blood flowed all over the ground, which was shocking. He hated Wang Ning very much in his heart. This slave was spoiled by himself. He can't.

Sun Quan walked in quickly and shouted loudly: "No one is allowed to move!"

He turned his head and saw Zhang Hong, and saw that his arm was bleeding profusely. He didn't know the extent of the injury. He felt extremely distressed, and stepped forward to comfort him, "Mr. Zhang, how is your injury?"

Zhang Hong was originally annoyed at Sun Quan, but now seeing that Sun Quan cared about his injury, he was showing his true feelings, not pretending. Under Captain Wang's harsh and painful killing, he was able to survive, and I should thank God for his humble position."

Sun Quan was furious, turned his head and yelled angrily: "Wang Ning, you are so brave!"

Seeing that Zhang Hong was ambiguous about the truth, as if he wanted to kill him himself, Wang Ning misunderstood Marquis Wu. He was angry and anxious, and quickly knelt down to explain: "No matter how courageous a humble official is, he dare not hurt Zhang Changshi." , Please Wu Hou listen to the humble official's explanation."

But Zhang Hong didn't give Wang Ning a chance to explain, he asked aggressively: "Lieutenant Wang, did you kill my horse, if the servants did not protect them desperately, the carriage overturned, would I still survive? Isn't this the truth? "

He turned back to Sun Quan and said: "I accompanied my old wife to Bujin Temple to burn incense. Unexpectedly, Captain Wang chased after him. He was very vicious. He killed my horse and destroyed my carriage. He wanted to put me and my old wife to death. It's just my fate. If you have escaped, ask Marquis Wu to make the decision for the old minister!"

At this moment, Sun Quan suddenly saw Da Qiao standing aside, he was stunned, his thoughts changed, and he immediately understood what happened?Wang Ning is not for Zhang Hong, but to catch up with Da Qiao.

After all, Sun Quan is a man of great talent and boldness. Although he has the desires of ordinary people and the viciousness of high-ranking people, his thoughts and reactions are not comparable to ordinary people, just like he hates Liu Jing very much, but he can still call Liu Jing brothers. , that kind of camouflage is beyond the reach of Liu Jing, he was just stunned, and immediately pretended to be surprised: "Why is sister-in-law here?"

Da Qiao disgusted him to the extreme, she turned her head away in disgust, and ignored Sun Quan, but Zhang Hong stepped forward and said: "Mrs. The Golden Temple burns incense and worships the Buddha, and the veterans accompany them."

Sun Quan immediately understood that Zhang Hong was going to escort Da Qiao away. Looking at Da Qiao's exquisite appearance, how could he be willing to prevent her from leaving? He couldn't help hesitating. Hou, the assassin hasn't been caught yet, I suspect that the assassin has an accomplice, and I'm afraid that the assassin's accomplice will be unfavorable to Mrs. Qiao and Zhang Changshi, so I rush to stop it, but Zhang Changshi misunderstood, so there is no unpleasantness, and I will never Offend the long history."

Sun Quan sighed and said to Zhang Hong: "I don't want to stop Chang Shi, but I'm just worried that the assassin party will harm my sister-in-law and Chang Shi, so, can I ask Chang Shi and his wife to go two days later to ensure safety."

At this time, there were more and more people watching the excitement around, there were tens of thousands of people, and many high-ranking Jiangdong officials who lived near the North Gate also appeared in the crowd, such as Zhuge Jin, Huan Jie, Ling Tong, Xu Sheng, Kan Ze and other high-ranking civil and military officials, it happened to be a holiday today, they heard that they were searching for assassins, so they stayed at home and did not interfere with the soldiers, but when they heard that something happened to Zhang Hong, everyone rushed to the city gate.

Seeing that Marquis Wu had also come, everyone came forward to salute together, which made Sun Quan a little nervous. He was worried that things would go wrong, especially Da Qiao was extremely staunch. Once she told the truth, it would be a bad thing.

At this time, Zhang Hong stepped forward to salute Sun Quan deeply, and said earnestly: "Wu Hou, our Jiangdong was defeated by Yuzhang first, and then there were internal strife, which led to the split of the three Wu. As far as Jiangdong is concerned, from General Wentai to the present, This is Jiangdong's unprecedented weakness, as if a person is about to die, and his life is hanging by a thread, but I am not discouraged. I am convinced that Jiangdong will be revived again, because of Wuhou's great talent and strategy, and the loyalty of hundreds of officials, Wuhou's reputation Outstanding, benevolence and virtue spread in Jiangdong, how can it be compared to Sun Shao, Sun Ben and other cruel and licentious people? Even Cao Cao and Liu Jing also praised Wu Hou as a hero of Jiangdong. To assist Marquis Wu, I just hope that Marquis Wu will take good care of his own feathers, work hard, and work hard, so Jiangdong will be revived again!"

After finishing speaking, Zhang Hong knelt down, and all the high-ranking civil and military officials didn't understand Zhang Hong's intentions, so they also knelt down, but Sun Quan knew that it was Zhang Hong telling him to let go. Like Sun Ben, he will betray his relatives because of his excessive debauchery.

Sun Quan let out a long sigh in his heart, and looked at Da Qiao again. Seeing her expression of desperation, he knew that he would not be able to get this glamorous beauty in the end. In desperation, he asked again: "I don't know if my sister-in-law is going to burn incense in Jiangbei?" After that, where do you plan to go?"

Da Qiao said without hesitation: "I plan to go to Princess Shangxiang and give her the old lady's relics and last letter."

A wry smile appeared on Sun Quan's face, and he said to Zhang Hong, "Please rest assured, Chang Shi, Sun Quan is a person who knows his mistakes and can correct them!"

He pointed at Wang Ning and shouted: "This man is bold and reckless, trying to avenge his personal revenge, and has been injured for a long time. Push this man down to me, beat him with a hundred army sticks, and remove him from the post of school lieutenant!"

The guards dragged Wang Ning down like a wolf like a tiger. Wang Ning knew that Sun Quan was taking him as a scapegoat, but he didn't dare to argue. He closed his eyes and let the guards drag him down. Sun Quan took another deep look at Da Qiao, and said reluctantly: "Sister-in-law, please take care all the way!"

As soon as he turned around, he quickly walked out of the city, and soon left Beicheng on horseback, disappearing at the end of the road.

Only then did Zhang Hong heave a long sigh of relief, and now he wanted to leave quickly before Sun Quan repented, so he hurriedly said to Da Qiao, "Ma'am, let's go!"

Da Qiao nodded, and together with Zhang Hong and his wife, boarded the carriage again. The coachman drove the single carriage, and the guards of the servants left the city gate, and soon arrived at the riverside. Passenger ship, at this time, a woman in red came out of the cabin, it was Zhong Xue who had left the city first, and when she saw Da Qiao and Zhang Hong entering, she laughed loudly and said, "Wu Hou Ke arrived at the city in time." Door?"

"It turned out to be you!" Zhang Hong suddenly realized that Sun Quan arrived in time, and it was Zhong Xue who reported the letter. He had to admire Zhong Xue's cleverness. If Wang Ning didn't recognize Da Qiao, Sun Quan wouldn't either. If Wang Ning recognizes Da Qiao, then only when Sun Quan arrives can he force Sun Quan to release him.

Zhang Hong couldn't help giving a thumbs up and praised: "What a clever girl, she really has quick wit."

Zhong Xue was a little embarrassed and said: "Madam, please get on the boat quickly, so as not to have long nights and dreams."

Da Qiao turned around and knelt down to Zhang Hong, weeping gratefully: "Da Qiao was able to escape from the tiger's mouth, thanks to Zhang Changshi's gift, I don't thank you for your kindness, Da Qiao will remember it in my heart."

Zhang Hong sighed in his heart, and quickly asked Da Qiao, "Madam, let's go! Jianye is not safe."

Da Qiao got up and boarded the boat, the passenger ship set sail, slowly left the pier, and sailed to the north bank of the river. Five thousand stone warships and a thousand elite soldiers had already docked on the north bank of the river. They would escort Da Qiao to leave Jiangdong and go to Xiangyang.

Looking at Yifan going away, Zhang Hong couldn't help but heaved a long sigh. Can Jiangdong really have a chance of revival?
