The powerful princess arrives with a space warehouse
Chapter 555: Rushing to Yongzhou City Overnight
Chu Chenjing carried Ouyang Yunyao and flew to the nearest yard to them, and put Ouyang Yunyao down in front of the main house in the yard. At this time, the yard was quiet and dark, without a person and no lights. Ouyang Yunyao took out a flashlight from the space, turned it on, and illuminated the yard.
At this time, Zhang Meng, Xia Yan and Xia Fei who were following behind them also rushed over. Zhang Meng hurried forward to help Chu Chenjing and Ouyang Yunyao push open the door of the main house. Xia Fei rushed in first and lit the oil lamp on the table, and the room lit up instantly.
Ouyang Yunyao stepped into the room and was so shocked by the splendour of the room under the oil lamp that she forgot to breathe. She knew the luxury here, but she didn't expect it to be so luxurious. She couldn't help but ask herself in her heart, are we in the mountains? Are we on a high mountain?
Chu Chenjing was also slightly startled when he saw all this. His brows were deep and his eyes were cold. He looked at Zhang Meng and said, "Do you know who lives here?"
"Your Highness, I have just asked. This is the courtyard of Xue Jianchuan, the second son of Xue Congying. He and Xue Congying came down the mountain together. There are two women and a child in this courtyard, all imprisoned together."
"Oh," he then said to Ouyang Yunyao who was standing there in a daze, "Yaoyao, stop being in a daze and start."
Ouyang Yunyao came back to her senses from her surprise, looked at the room full of goodies with shining eyes, and began her work of collecting them.
……
The owner of the house that was confiscated by Ouyang Yunyao was riding a tall horse and following his father Xue Congying with other people, walking on the way out of the mountain in the dark night.
A group of soldiers with their weapons in hand were running behind the people on horseback. The sound of "dong dong dong... dong dong dong..." that shook the mountains and forests was heard on the mountain road.
The silent forest was disturbed by the sound of tens of thousands of people running. The wild animals in the forest were frightened and ran around in panic. It would take more than three hours to walk out of Dai'an Mountain at the fastest speed.
Xue Congying himself used Qinggong to enter the mountain, and sometimes he could go up the secret path in the mountain. That only took an hour.
Riding on horses, right next to Xue Congying and a head behind him, was his eldest son Xue Jianlei on one side and a skinny man in a black robe on the other side.
They had been walking under the cover of night for more than two hours. They would be able to get out of the mountain and onto the official road in about an hour. After getting on the official road, they would walk for another hour and reach Shiha City.
To go to Yongzhou City in Xia Yongzhou, one only needs to go down the mountain from another small mountain road not far ahead, and then get on the official road to Yongzhou City. It only takes an hour and a half from going down the mountain to Yongzhou City, which is half an hour faster than going to Shiha City.
Xue Jianlei, who was following closely behind his father, said to him at this moment: "Father, I will lead the team to leave from the front path soon."
Xue Congying heard the voice, turned his head to look at him, and then looked at the night sky, and said in a cold voice: "Jianlei, when you arrive in Yongzhou City, it should be morning. The sky is already bright, and you must act according to the plan."
"Got it, father. I will definitely live up to your expectations."
"Well! If Pei Hansheng doesn't know what's good for him, then don't consider anything else."
"Father, I know that if he doesn't cooperate, I will kill him." Xue Jianlei said these harsh words in a calm tone.
Everyone around his father knew that Xue Congying's eldest son was even more ruthless and cunning than Xue Congying.
At this time, they had reached a three-way intersection. Xue Congying stopped, and all the people on horseback, as well as the soldiers running behind the horses, also stopped.
Xue Congying turned his horse's head and glanced at everyone with a gaze like a venomous snake. When his eyes fell on them, they felt their hair stand on end.
He used his usual cold tone to say to the deputy commander Qi Feng who had already dismounted from his horse and came to him: "Deputy commander Qi, Yongzhou City is now handed over to you and Jianlei. I am waiting for your good news."
"Master, I will not let you down. We will leave first."
"Let's go!"
Qi Feng mounted his horse and, together with Xue Jianlei, led a team of 20,000 people into another mountain path.
Xue Congying personally brought his subordinates and led a team of nearly 30,000 people along the original downhill road. What he could not have imagined at this time was that his old nest would be destroyed overnight.
……
It was late at night, but the lights were bright in the governor's mansion in Yongzhou City of Xia Yongzhou.
Chu Feng obeyed the order and took a squad of more than 20 people from the Divine Artifact Camp and rode on horseback on the official road overnight. They rode at full speed and arrived at Yongzhou City in just one and a half hours.
It was already the late night when they arrived at Yongzhou City, and the city gates were tightly closed, although Chu Feng and a few others had great martial arts skills and were able to jump over the city wall and enter the city.
But at this critical moment, in order to arouse the misunderstanding of the prince, they still knocked on the city gate. When the guards at the city gate heard that it was the people from Prince Jing of Kyoto who wanted to see Pei Zhoujun, they did not dare to delay for a moment and hurried to report to the prince's mansion.
When the governor Pei Hansheng heard that it was Prince Jing's men who came to see him for an urgent matter, he quickly got up, put on his clothes, and rushed to the city gate with his men overnight. In this way, three quarters of an hour had passed. Fortunately, the governor's mansion was not too far from the city gate.
Chu Feng and his men were very anxious outside the city, fearing that Xue Congying's men would arrive overnight. Fortunately, Xue Congying's stronghold was far away from here, and they had to rely on the soldiers to walk.
Pei Hansheng arrived at the city gate, but he didn't dare to open the gate easily in the middle of the night. He climbed up the city wall and looked at the group of horsemen under the city. "Who are you?"
"You are Peizhou Jun, right?"
"who are you?"
"I am Chu Feng, the chief guard of Prince Jing. I have Prince Jing's token here."
Pei Hansheng was originally from Kyoto. Before he was sent out as an official, he worked in the Ministry of Revenue. At that time, he knew several personal guards around Prince Jing. These guards must have held high positions in the army, so he dared not neglect them.
But in the half-moonlight, he couldn't see the people below the tower. He could only say, "Guard Chu, please forgive me for my difficulty. I really can't see you, let alone the token. I can't let you enter the city at night."
Chu Feng also knew his difficulties, so he said: "Peizhou Jun, you are right, so you can throw down a few torches."
Pei Hansheng thought about it and thought this was a good idea. He ordered people to throw a few torches to the city. Chu Feng and his men picked up the torches and raised them. At this time, Pei Hansheng on the city wall could see Chu Feng clearly by the light of the fire, and also saw another person beside him. He hurriedly said, "Guard Chu, I have recognized you. Let someone open the city gate right away."
He continued, "Guard Chu, is the man next to you Pei Hu?"
