Traveling through the ancient times

Two days later, Lu Mingqian received a letter from Qi Muhe.

In the letter, Qi Muhe told Lu Mingqian about their assassination and his discovery that the assassin was Yongkang, the son of General Yongfu of Xiliang, and attached a portrait of Yongkang.

Qi Muhe also expressed his concerns, "I have known Yongkang since childhood, and he also knows my martial arts moves. When I fought with the assassin that day, I was worried that Yongkang had seen through my identity. In addition, when we interrogated several other assassins who were captured, they confessed that the purpose of the assassination was to kidnap Miss Nian.

As for why they wanted to rob Miss Nian, their purpose is still unknown. Yongkang came alone without the Xiliang guards. The ones who came with him were all thugs recruited by Dongyi at the last minute. "

General Yongfu's son Yongkang wants to kidnap Chuhua?

Lu Mingqian chewed over the news carefully. Previously, the guards had discovered that someone was investigating him, but after they noticed, the person disappeared.

So, could it be that Yong Kang was investigating him, but was discovered by his people, and because he was afraid of alerting the enemy, he turned around and investigated the people around him, and thus found Chu Hua. Since Yong Kang couldn't get close to him, he wanted to capture Chu Hua to threaten him?

So his purpose was to avenge General Yongfu? So Yongkang already knew that it was he who sent someone to assassinate the Prince of Xiliang and then put the blame on General Yongfu.

Then why did Song Yi get together with Yong Kang?

Song Yi is from Hengyang, which is thousands of miles away from Qunan, not to mention Xiliang. Or is it that Yongkang has been lurking in Dongyi Kingdom for a long time and has already established his own network of contacts here?

This must be investigated carefully. If Dongyi has a network of people from Xiliang in China, it will be a big problem.

Thinking of the subordinates reporting that Lord Zhou is wanted for Song Yi, it seems that I have to find time to go to Lord Zhou's house.

Yongkang didn't catch Chuhua this time, so what will be his next move? If he finds out Qi Muhe's identity, he should go to the King of Xiliang to get more help.

What Lu Mingqian didn't know was that he had already guessed the truth to be almost certain!

Lu Mingqian called the secret guards and asked, "Did you find any results on the previous investigation into someone's secret guards spying on my whereabouts?"

"Your Highness, I am incompetent and have not yet found any information. It seems that the man has suddenly given up and has not shown any unusual movements."

Lu Mingqian knew that he must have guessed correctly. The man did not investigate him, but instead went to investigate Nianchuhua.

The time also matches what Tianqing said, so it should be the Yongkang that Qi Muhe mentioned.

"No need to investigate. Ask someone to make several copies of this portrait and distribute them. Send people to the border immediately. If this person is found, arrest him immediately and interrogate him strictly. Especially those who want to leave Kaizhou will be strictly investigated." If it is really as he guessed, then Yongkang should be rushing to the border and returning to Xiliang to find help.

"Yes!" The secret guard received the order and went down to convey the message. Lu Mingqian picked up a pen and wrote a letter with a portrait enclosed to the General Zhenguo, asking him to strengthen border patrols and make sure to catch the man before Yongkang leaves the border.

On the other hand, the people sent by Lord Zhou to capture Song Yi did not have much trouble. After Song Yi led the beggar into the house, he rented a carriage nearby and left the city directly.

Song Yi lied to the coachman and said that something happened in his hometown and he needed to get home as soon as possible, and urged the coachman to drive the carriage faster all the way.

"Brother, please hurry up, hurry up... I really have something urgent." Song Yi urged.

The groom was already impatient with him and had been urging him since he got on the carriage, "Sir, even if you are in a hurry, this horse only has four legs. You can't urge it to fly, right?"

"If you whip the horse harder, won't it run faster?"

"Sir, what you said is true. We are driving the carriage, not taking the horse's life. If you beat it any harder, the horse will be beaten to death, and you will have to walk alone." He still has to rely on this carriage to earn money to support his family. If he beat the horse for Song Yi's little money, it would be a loss!

"Just whip it a few times and it will be dead. If you can't do it, let me do it!" Song Yi said as he was about to grab the whip from the groom's hand.

"Sir, what are you doing? You don't know how to drive a carriage, so get in and sit down quickly, or you might fall down."

"Give it to you." Song Yi snatched the whip, held the whip with both hands and whipped the horse's butt hard. The horse felt pain, raised its front legs, stood up, neighed, and ran forward like crazy.

Song Yi and the coachman suddenly fell backwards due to inertia, rolled into the carriage and hit the partition of the carriage.

The horse ran wildly without any care, causing Song Yi and the coachman to be thrown left and right in the carriage.

"Go and make it stop, ouch... ah..."

"I was thinking about it, oh... my head, you also want me to get out, didn't you ask it to run faster? Go ahead." The groom was dizzy and dazed by this sudden misfortune, and he said to Song Yi in a bad mood.

Although the coachman said this, he still climbed out of the carriage. Before he could touch the horse rope, a large rock blocked the road in front of him. The horse ran over and the wheel hit the rock, causing the carriage to overturn on the side of the road. The horse broke free from the rope and ran away.

Song Yi and the groom were so dizzy and dazed that they couldn't recover for a while.

The coachman covered his head and climbed out of the carriage. His whole body seemed to be broken apart. Seeing that the horse was no longer outside, he turned around and cried, "My horse, my carriage was hit like this. It's all your fault. You must compensate me for my carriage and my horse."

Song Yi was still curled up in the carriage, feeling pain all over his body. "I was also injured, it was all because of your crazy horse running around. I haven't asked you for compensation yet."

"If you hadn't insisted on driving the carriage, why would my horse run around like crazy? You have to pay for it..." The coachman said as he tried to grab Song Yi's bag. Song Yi was unwilling to do so, but he was not as strong as the coachman and was knocked unable to get up.

The coachman snatched Song Yi's bag with great effort, opened it and saw the jewelry and silver inside. His eyes widened. This silver was enough for him to buy several carriages. The coachman hugged the whole bag in his arms and ran to the woods.

Song Yi couldn't get up, his legs seemed to be broken. It was excruciatingly painful to move, and he could only watch helplessly as his bag was snatched away.

Song Yi stayed in the carriage for a long time before he slowly climbed out of the carriage, enduring the pain, hoping that some kind passerby would see him and help him.

However, he did not wait for the kind-hearted person, but instead waited for the soldiers sent by Lord Zhou to capture him.

The soldier saw Song Yi lying on the side of the road, who looked a bit like that man. He dismounted, walked over, took out the painting and compared it with Song Yi, "That's him! You made it so hard for us to find him!"

The soldier dragged Song Yi up, and Song Yi screamed in pain, "Sir, did you catch the wrong person? I was just robbed by a horseman, and he ran into the woods. Go catch him!"

"Were you robbed?"

"Yes, sir! My leg was also injured when he fell from his carriage."

"Good grab and great throw. If it weren't for him, I don't know how long it would take us to catch you."

The other soldiers also burst into laughter...

Song Yi wanted to struggle, but the soldier picked him up and put him on the horse's back. "Don't talk nonsense. If you move again, I will tie you to the horse's butt and drag you away..."

Song Yi didn't dare to move for a moment and just lay on the horse's back. The soldier jumped on the horse, waved the whip and rode away in a cloud of dust.

Song Yi's stomach hit the horse's back. The horse was running very fast, and he started vomiting soon after...

This caused the soldiers to dislike him and he was inevitably beaten and kicked again.
