The Child Emperor

Chapter 77 Carjacking

Favors owed must always be repaid, even the Marquis of Juan, who was once the emperor, was no exception. On the way back home, his team was stopped.

As a marquis with only a salary but no fiefdom, his entourage is too large. There are twenty knight guards, ten guards from the Ministry of Rites, thirty servants from Jingzhao Yin Yamen, and thirty officers and soldiers from patrolling the city. There are more than 20 entourages sent by the Ministry Department, which together exceed a hundred people, which is even bigger than the princes and kings who came to Beijing to worship.

It was such a team that unexpectedly met a group of people blocking the way to beg for rewards.

The northern army was notorious in the capital, and they were rarely seen in the previous power struggles of the imperial court, but they were often seen yelling in wine shops and prostitutes.

The night before yesterday, they helped Juanhou drive away a group of troublemakers. They left quietly at that time, but now they came to ask for the money for the drink.

In fact, they were already drunk, laughing and crying at the same time, some were standing in the middle of the road, some were lying on the ground playing tricks, those who didn't know thought they were a group of beggars in armor.

"If Emperor Wu was alive, he would have beheaded them to show the public." Fu Cheng said bitterly, after Emperor Wu, Da Chu even changed a few emperors, but he didn't have time to deal with the Northern Army.

"Okay, everyone knows that the Northern Army's laxity is the root of the disaster planted by Emperor Wu. Even if it's disrespectful, I dare to say that." Fu Wei said, he was just a low-level official, but he was bolder when he spoke.

Yang Feng, who was going to deal with the beggars, came back in a hurry, with a look of panic on his face, "I can't control it, these guys are simply scoundrels, and it wasn't these people who protected the tired man last night, they were just attacking the Northern Army." The banner is used to blackmail people. I am a eunuch, and the master is inside, and the two are Fu Cheng and Fu Wei, and the master is outside, right?"

The two had no choice but to accept this thankless job.

The most effective way to deal with the soldiers of the Northern Army is to break them up with sticks. Fu Wei had a plan in mind. The cavalry guards had a high status. Return the reward.

Fu Cheng stayed behind, shaking his head vigorously, lamenting that the present is not as good as it used to be, "The Northern Army used to toss around outside the city, but now they have entered the city. It's really... hum."

Yang Fengyan Fuwei and others walked away, came to the front of the car, opened the curtain, and said to the inside: "Come on."

Han Ruzi jumped out immediately.

Fu Cheng was taken aback, and hurried forward to stop him, "Jianhou, you are a rich man, don't meet a group of soldiers, we can set off immediately."

Yang Feng stood in the middle, "Don't be careless, who knows if anyone in the Northern Army has evil intentions, maybe this is a trap set up, please get on the horse and let the guards protect you to detour back home."

Yang Feng's words seemed to make sense, and when Fu Cheng was stunned, Juan Hou had already jumped on Yang Feng's horse, and said to the twenty Xiao cavalry guards: "You are ordered to protect me, now, come with me."

These cavalry guards saw with their own eyes that General Zhonglang was respectful to Juanhou, so they didn't have any doubts, they immediately said yes, turned their horses around, and wanted to find another way with Juanhou.

At this time, Fu Cheng felt that something was wrong. Looking back, Fu Wei was leading his men to drive away the northern army on the road ahead. He had a great advantage and would win soon, but it was too late to stop Juanhou.

"Jianhou wait a moment... I'll be with you..."

Yang Feng hugged Fu Cheng by the waist, and said with a smile: "This place is not far from the Hou's Mansion, what should you worry about?"

The Fucheng was still struggling, but Han Ruzi had already run a certain distance with Xiaoqiwei and turned south into an alley.

Han Ruzi didn't know the way at all, seeing Cai Xinghai standing guard at the corner from afar, he felt at ease, knowing that Yang Feng had already arranged everything.

Cai Xinghai got on his horse and led the way.

The imperial palace guards were divided into eight battalions, and their common feature was distinctive armor. The knight guards were all gold-plated armor, and they held spears and halberds more than ten feet long, which were extremely eye-catching.

Huashi Lane is too close to the imperial palace, and Shuying Lane is already the territory of Cui's family. Cai Xinghai led the crowd into Buddha's Clothes Lane. On the way, he went fast and slow, deliberately controlling the speed, until a Northern Army knight ran towards him and waved to him. , Cai Xinghai began to advance at full speed.

Han Ruzi suddenly had a thought, if Cai Xinghai lures him into the trap, he will be doomed this time, his mother warned him not to trust anyone, but since he left the palace, he has trusted many people one after another.

This idea only existed for a short time, and Han Ruzi knew very well that he had to take risks and rely on the strength of others to do things, and being too suspicious would only make him a "lonely person" without power and power.

The Buddha's clothes alley is very narrow, barely able to hold two horses abreast, and a team of more than ten people is walking in it. If they hadn't known it in advance, no one would have thought that the empress dowager was in it.

Most of the people in the team were on foot, and Han Ruzi was surprised to see two carriages.

Cai Xinghai dispersed the walking entourage in front, and shouted: "The cars behind keep up!"

Some of the entourages were bold, "Who are you? I don't know what's in this car..."

"Of course I know, but you don't recognize us?" Cai Xinghai turned and pointed at the approaching knight.

The man recognized Xiaoqiwei's clothes, but not Juanhou, and said blankly: "We are following the order of the palace..."

Cai Xinghai, like Yang Feng, was well versed in the art of bluffing, yelling, waving his horsewhip, and drove away the walking followers like chickens, looked at the two carriages, and said to the driver: "Follow me!"

Han Ruzi arrived, jumped off the horse, ran to the first carriage, lifted the curtain and took a look, and it was Cui Xiaojun sitting inside, and he called out to him in surprise.

Time was running out, Han Ruzi nodded to her, put down the curtain, got on his horse again, still led the way by Cai Xinghai, and galloped to Baiwang Lane, forgetting to tell Xiao Qiwei that he would only bring a carriage.

These twenty Xiao cavalry guards are formal soldiers of the guards, and they are not the same as those who are named. They will not show any doubts in their hearts. The boss has said that they must obey the orders of Juan Hou, and they will not ask a word. , very consciously divided into two teams, guarding the two carriages in the middle.

The coachman was sent by the palace, he only cared about driving, anyway, he was following the Xiao cavalry guards, and the accident had nothing to do with him, so he drove closely and followed closely, not one step behind.

Stopping the car and disappearing, the whole process only took a while. There were more than a dozen attendants left in Foyi Lane. They looked at each other and suddenly divided into two groups. One group ran back to the palace, and the other ran to Shuying Lane where the Cui family was located.

Han Ruzi led the team to join Yang Feng and others, but Cai Xinghai ran away halfway.

Fu Cheng and Fu Wei were furious, but they couldn't attack Juanhou. They were relieved to see that he was fine, but they were puzzled when they saw the two extra carriages.

"How is this going?"

Yang Feng asked the two seriously: "Outsiders of Juanhou's mansion are not allowed to enter, family members can always."

"Uh...Of course, but Juanhou's family..." Fu Cheng's face suddenly changed, and his voice trembled, "This, this can't be done, without the order of the superior..."

"Did your boss say that you are not allowed to reunite with your husband and wife?"

Fu Cheng and Fu Wei couldn't answer, just when they were in a daze, Juan Hou, Xiao Qiwei and two carriages had already passed by them, Yang Feng also chased after them.

"I said long ago that this errand would be fatal, but I didn't expect it to come so soon!" Fu Cheng was full of regrets, thinking that in the morning he should desperately disobey and not come to the Juanhou Mansion to take office, but right now he had no choice, so he said to the Fu Wei: " You follow, I will go back to the Zongzheng Mansion..."

Han Ruzi's heart was still pounding, and he said to Yang Feng who was catching up, "Everything is going well."

"Let's talk at home."

The team was already in chaos, except for the Xiao cavalry guards who could still line up neatly, the soldiers sent by the other departments were all in a hurry and ran behind the team.

When they arrived at Baiwang Lane, Yang Feng patted his horse and ran ahead, and ordered the side door to be opened wide, so that the team behind could drive directly into the front yard.

Han Ruzi got off his horse and came to the first car. The driver was already hiding aside. He opened the curtain, looked at Cui Xiaojun with a smile, and said, "I'm home."

Cui Xiaojun was so excited that he couldn't speak, just nodded, his body was weak, and Han Ruzi supported him and got off the carriage. The eunuchs and maids had been waiting for a long time, and immediately several maids stepped forward to welcome the housewife.

There were also official slaves sent by the Zongzheng Mansion in the mansion, who were so dumbfounded that they didn't dare to go forward.

Han Ruzi said to Cui Xiaojun: "Go and rest first, I will come later."

Cui Xiaojun grabbed his hand, teary eyes, still speechless, the tension and insecurity in Han Ruzi's heart disappeared completely, so he smiled again, "Even if the queen mother comes in person, she can't take you away .”

Cui Xiaojun nodded solemnly, then let go of his hand, and went down to the back house surrounded by maids and eunuchs.

Han Ruzi boasted to Haikou, but he understood very well in his heart that the most important prerequisite for him to keep his wife was that the queen mother would not meddle in her own business. Taifu Cui stayed in the southern army and did not enter the city for several months, and he would not make an exception for his daughter. Except for these two people, he is not afraid of others.

Yang Feng ordered to close the door, and was sending twenty Xiao cavalry guards to find a place to rest. Han Ruzi led a few eunuchs to the second carriage. He was so excited just now that he forgot to ask his wife who was in the carriage behind, and felt a little regretful. I should be more calm and leave the car where it is.

Han Ruzi lifted the curtain and saw a terrified face.When they met each other, the other party was stunned, and he was also stunned.

"It's you!" Both of them shouted at the same time.

Zhang Youcai looked at it curiously, and was also taken aback: "King of the East China Sea!"

The King of the East China Sea was terrified, and tried to hide back, "Where is this? Why did you bring me here? You are no longer the emperor, and you will not end well if you kill me."

Han Ruzi smiled, "This is my home, I didn't intend to kill you, I didn't even know you were out of the palace, it was an accident."

The king of the East China Sea seemed to believe it or not, and looked outside for a few times. It was getting dark and he couldn't see anything clearly, but once he calmed down a little, his reaction was quick, "Oh, you are going to rob my cousin and take me with you." coming."

Han Ruzi put away his smile, "You didn't bully her, did you?"

"We got into the car separately, and we haven't seen her face for several months, how could we bully... You are too courageous, you dare to rob someone!"

Han Ruzi began to think normally, "The queen mother sent you out of the palace too, who is she going to make emperor?"

The King of Donghai snorted angrily, "We have all been deceived, and the Cui family has also been deceived."
