Chapter 5454 Tired
"Should we search for him all over the capital? I feel that Ning Yuan has not left the capital." Yang Ruoqing said.
Yang Ruoqing has long wanted to kill Ning Yuan. That old guy is really not a good person.
His son, Ning Yi, died a worthy death.
However, there is still a mystery about Ning Yi's death that has not been solved.
That is, who killed Ning Yi.
To this day, there is still no investigation into who did what happened in the first place.
At first, Yang Ruoqing suspected that the Yuanlong organization was responsible, but later it didn't feel like it.
"There is no need to look for him all over the capital, he will appear by himself."
Qi Xingyun said.
"That's right. On the surface, he has made no mistakes and he trusts the country. As long as it is not a crime of rebellion, no one can punish him." Yang Ruoqing said.
Even an emperor like Qi Xingyun cannot do whatever he wants.
If he takes the lead in breaking Daqi's laws, it will be the beginning of Daqi's complete collapse. This is why Qi Xingyun refuses to arrest people easily.
Ning Yuan knew that Qi Xingyun was such an emperor, so he dared to stay in the capital.
If Qi Xingyun was a tyrant who didn't care about the overall situation, then Ning Yuan would have run as far as he could.
"Put aside Ning Yuan, Lord Xin Guo. Today we need to sort out the affairs in the capital." Qi Xingyun said.
Yang Ruoqing glanced towards the inner city and said, "Your Majesty, you have to deal with your housework first. Look, all the ladies have come out."
Qi Xingyun looked forward, and sure enough, Empress Zhao, Concubine Fang, Concubine Su Ziyue, and others, all surrounded by eunuchs and maids, ran out of the inner city after opening the city gate, heading straight towards
Qi Xingyun ran in the direction where he was.
Qi Xingyun felt that his head was a little swollen. Just as Yang Ruoqing said, he was quite busy with the affairs of the women in the harem.
This time, he put aside all the women in the harem and performed this scene, which must have hurt the hearts of those women.
But, he had to do this.
I can only make up for it later.
"Ahem, I'll leave this to you. I'll go meet them first."
Qi Xingyun waved his whip and urged the horses to rush forward. The guards who followed him hurriedly surrounded the dangerous places around him.
"Your Majesty has gone to take care of the family affairs. Let's go and capture King Lu." Yang Ruoqing looked at Luo Fengtang.
"Let's go." Luo Fengtang raised the spear in his hand and said, "You and I, husband and wife, work together to defeat King Lu today."
After finishing their affairs in the capital, they can take a good rest.
Now is the time to finish, so naturally we have to work hard and move forward bravely.
At this time, King Lu's cavalry was fighting and retreating, and from time to time some of them were surrounded and killed.
But King Lu's cavalry is really powerful, and the armor on their bodies is extremely protective. Ordinary bows and arrows cannot hurt them at all, and they can only be dealt with by those tough methods.
The so-called tough method is to use a variety of weapons to attack the smaller ones with more people. Surrounding one person and giving him a severe beating will not be able to withstand him no matter how strong his protection is.
"King Lu, you can't run away." Luo Fengtang urged his horse forward, pointing his spear.
"Luo Fengtang! You alone can't stop me."
King Lu showed great martial arts. He held a spear in his hand and used it like an arm, pointing east and west, without any response.
The direction he was heading towards was the South Gate, the south exit of the capital.
"Why bother resisting? The four gates of the capital have been blocked. You can't escape," Luo Fengtang said.
"Who said I can't escape?" King Lu shouted: "Throw it away!"
As King Lu shouted, a row of cavalry took out black balls from their bags and threw them on the ground. Large black powdery sand mist rose up, confusing the surrounding vision.
.
"Stab it..."
Luo Fengtang and Yang Ruoqing both tore off their clothes and covered their mouths and noses. This black powdery sand mist was obviously a poisonous gas.
"Qing'er, this poisonous gas is very powerful, and the horse can't withstand it." Luo Fengtang felt that the horse's legs under him were weak and he couldn't stand still.
"Get off the horse and go, we can't let him run away." Yang Ruoqing decisively turned over and dismounted, covered her mouth and nose, and rushed through a cloud of black smoke. What she saw was that thousands of cavalry were divided into two parts, and a part of thousands of cavalry stayed behind to hold on.
The chasing men and horses, while others were already escorting King Lu, threw away the heavy objects and moved quickly towards the south gate.
King Lu's two attacks were very useful, and he stopped them.
"South Gate, why does he have to go to South Gate?" Yang Ruoqing felt something was wrong.
"Is there something wrong with the imperial guards guarding the south gate?" Luo Fengtang's face turned serious.
"The ones guarding the south gate are the Storm Guards. Logically speaking, the Storm Guards should be fine."
Yang Ruoqing vaguely felt that she had gone astray. Maybe the storm guard who seemed to be fine actually had a problem.
The more than a thousand cavalry who blocked them did not hold them back for too long. After a while, they all fell to the ground. After all, there was a huge gap in numbers, and they could not do anything despite their best efforts.
However, their goal of fighting to the death to delay time has been achieved.
King Lu has already gone to the south gate with the remaining people!
When Yang Ruoqing and Luo Fengtang arrived at the south gate with many people, they only saw the south gate wide open and empty.
"There's something wrong with the Storm Guard!" Yang Ruoqing couldn't help but sigh.
In the end, the success fell short.
Unexpectedly, King Lu had such a powerful strategist under his command. He could still save a hand for King Lu to escape at the most unfavorable time.
If he thought he had a chance to win and exposed the Storm Guard in advance, it would be impossible to save his life at this time.
"Maybe the Kuangfeng Guards have ceased to be part of the imperial army a long time ago. They are so powerful. They use the imperial court's money to support their own soldiers," Luo Fengtang said.
"The Imperial Guard is really useless. As an army to protect the royal family, it is stationed in the capital, but it has been infiltrated like a sieve." Yang Ruoqing said.
This incident was mainly the fault of the first two emperors. Although Qi Xingyun's responsibility was relatively small, it also reflected his lack of control over the power of the capital.
Fortunately, after this planning, the rotten flesh that has appeared has been removed as soon as possible, and the remaining ones can be properly sorted out.
"Forget it, just run away. We tried our best." Yang Ruoqing felt deeply tired.
For a while, she had tried her best for this series of plans, but she was really tired.
"Qing'er, the New Year is coming soon. Let's go back to Changping Village in a while. Although the capital is prosperous, it is not as good as the village." Luo Fengtang smiled slightly.
"Then let's go back and resume our lives. The matter in the capital is over and there won't be any more big disturbances." Yang Ruoqing said.
The others are still chasing out along the south gate. Whether they can catch them is another matter, but it is impossible to watch King Lu escape.
However, Yang Ruoqing and Luo Fengtang rode back to the residence of Marquis Zhongyong...
It was already late at night, and the servants in the Hou Mansion were waiting for their return.
Chapter completed!
