Anecdotes of Tianyuan: The Long Night is Young

"Check everywhere for me, if you find out the whereabouts of King Duan, kill him immediately."

"obey"

"Only unannounced visits are allowed, no explicit inspections are allowed, don't cause any trouble."

The prince's minions extended to Yangzhou City, making unannounced visits everywhere in order to find Zhao Xiyan.Xia Shuning brought Zhao Xiyan to the Yuelai Inn in the north of the city, and Zhao Xiyan was still awake.Xia Shuning sent the boy to take the money to deal with the shopkeeper, and asked the shopkeeper not to talk nonsense.Immediately afterwards, the young servant ran to the government office of Yangzhou to have a look, and the young servant joined the hidden guard of Concubine Xia.The hidden guards were ecstatic, and King Duan was really blessed and alive.But after thinking about it, I heard the boy said that King Duan was seriously injured, so he became worried again.Under Xia Shuning's order, the hidden guards lurked near the Yuelai Inn to protect them.The dark guard took care of the shopkeeper again, and pretended to be a helper in the inn to protect him secretly.

"My subordinate, Lin Haotian, has seen the side concubine."

"Get up, don't be too polite."

"Your Majesty, my lord..."

"My lord, he was seriously injured and is now unconscious."

"The subordinate escorted the prince and the side concubine to return to Beijing for medical treatment."

"I'm afraid I can't go back now. The prince's minions have already arrived in Yangzhou City. When I return to Beijing at this time, I will be intercepted and killed. Do you know how many people the prince sent here this time?"

"The subordinates are incompetent. I haven't found out how many people the prince has. But at present, I'm afraid they are on par. The imperial concubine sent most of the dark guards to Yangzhou city this time. I will swear to protect the prince to the death. , the prince and empress must return to Beijing safely."

"I have always known that you are loyal, but now is really not a good time to return to Beijing."

"Ask your mother to give instructions."

"You wait and protect in the dark, and you will definitely not let anyone find the prince. The prince is weak now and can't stand the torment. You can only make plans when the prince is in better health."

"This subordinate will send someone back to Beijing to report to the imperial concubine."

"No, if you send someone back to the capital, the prince's minions will definitely find out. For safety's sake, we can only keep it a secret. Now I want you to send someone to find Mr. Poison Sage, and report as soon as you find the trace."

"Can……"

"It's nothing but, the prince is seriously injured, and I'm afraid it can't be cured by ordinary doctors. Only Mr. Poison Sage."

"But the poison sage is a master of poison, how can he heal the prince."

"The Poison Sage is the world's number one master poisoner, and he is also the best doctor in the world today. If not, he would have been poisoned to death by himself. Hurry up and send someone to look for it, don't ask too much, and don't delay .”

"Yes, my subordinates retire."

The prince's minions have come to the Yuelai Inn to look for it, but the hidden guards protected the Lord properly, and they didn't find anything.Zhao Xiyan was still not awake, and just yelled a few words in a daze and moved in the middle.Xia Shuning was still in her clothes and took care of him, but it was a pity that the external injuries were hard to heal, but the internal injuries and the right leg were not something she could heal well.The days passed day by day, Xia Shuning poured some meat porridge into Zhao Xiyan's mouth every day, and Zhao Xiyan could drink more, but he was still seriously injured.The prince's minions searched Yangzhou city for a few days without any results, but suddenly found that the hidden guards of Duanwang's mansion disappeared suddenly, and felt very strange.The prince's minions searched Yangzhou city for several days, but they did not see King Duan nor the hidden guards of Prince Duan's mansion. They did not know what medicine was sold in the gourd of Prince Duan's mansion, so they expanded their search.After all, paper can't cover fire, the prince's minions still know that there seems to be something mysterious in Yuelai Inn, and they are not sure if it is King Duan.But now Yuelai Inn is always guarded intentionally or unintentionally, and the prince's minions dare not do anything blatantly.After all, I found a time to come to the inn at night when the night was quiet.The streets were dimly lit that night, and the prince's minions immediately launched an operation, searching for the Yuelai Inn.I turned around and found nothing abnormal, but the door of the upper room at the corner could not be pushed open.Several people discussed and wanted to break into the door.Just as he was turning up the stairs, a group of masked men dressed as servants came out to stop him.Both parties did not ask much questions, and started fighting.Xia Shuning was in the room, ready to run out with the servant girl at any time.There were dozens of hidden guards waiting for the prince's minions at the door, and they all swore to send Zhao Xiyan and Xia Shuning out.The fight was in full swing outside, Xia Shuning and others rushed out of the room under the guidance of the hidden guards.The prince's minions saw Xia Shuning came out with the servant, and the servant was carrying someone on his back.The prince's minions were not sure if they were Prince Duan, but it was the prince's purpose to kill the wrong ones and never let them go, so they went straight to Xia Shuning to take their lives.The secret guards of Prince Duan's Mansion saw it, surrounded Xia Shuning and the others, and escorted them out.The dark guard fought against the prince's minions, and finally sent Xia Shuning and others to the carriage at the back door of the inn.

The servant put Zhao Xiyan on the carriage first, followed by Xia Shuning and the maid, and several hidden guards immediately drove Xia Shuning out of Yangzhou City.Xia Shuning hugged Zhao Xiyan tightly in the carriage, for fear that he would be seriously injured due to the bumps.In the middle of the night in Yangzhou City, the lights were dim, and the dark guard couldn't see the way, so he had to light a torch.I rushed all the way to the city gate of Yangzhou, but it was already past the time to leave the city. I am afraid that the city guards who guarded the city would not let them go.

"Stop quickly, leave the city in the middle of the night, who are you?"

"Hurry up and stop this officer! Who are you!"

"I am an official of the Ministry of War. I have been ordered to go to Yangzhou on business. Now I am in a hurry to return to Beijing and return to my order. Please open the city gate and let me go!" Lin Haotian knew that he could not reveal his identity, but how could he let the city guard know if he did not arrange an identity? The bad rule is to open the city gate in the middle of the night, that's all I can say.

"Sir, do you have a token?"

"some."

Lin Haotian hurriedly handed over the token of the Ministry of War to the gatekeeper, and presented it to the gatekeeper for viewing.The gatekeeper stood at the city gate, took the token and saw that it was indeed the token of the Ministry of War.But he had never heard that the capital sent people to Yangzhou, and he was still very suspicious of these people.

"I don't know why the chief came to Yangzhou? The officer has never received the order from the magistrate of Yangzhou. It is said that someone from Beijing has come here. Now that the night is deep, please go out of the city tomorrow."

"I'll hurry back to Beijing when I have something urgent to do, and I ask the city guard to let you go quickly, don't let anything go wrong."

"Forgive me. I have never received orders from the magistrate. Please forgive me for not letting me go. Please go back and rest early."

"you!"

"Don't get entangled with him, go to the south gate." Xia Shuning heard it all, she couldn't get entangled with this gatekeeper, Zhao Xiyan's illness couldn't tolerate such a waste of time.

"Yes"

Lin Haotian and his party came to the south gate, but were also rejected. This time Xia Shuning really didn't want to run away.Lin Haotian ordered to go down, beat the guards and rushed out.Lin Haotian led Xia Shuning and his party out of Yangzhou City overnight, and the prince's minions escaped from the entanglement of the hidden guards. At this time, the target had disappeared without a trace.The secret guards of Duanwang's mansion saw the prince's minions going to the city gate from the dark, and followed them.The dark guards saw many soldiers going to the south gate, and Yangzhou City suddenly strengthened its defenses, knowing that their master had gone out safely.The rest of the hidden guards in Yangzhou City hid themselves and went after them the next day.The prince's minions didn't know where they were going, so they split up and went to different cities in Yangzhou to track them down.Xia Shuning and his party rushed all the way to Jinling City, and after running all night, they finally arrived at a small town on the border of Jinling.Xia Shuning didn't want to leave anymore, Zhao Xiyan suffered serious internal injuries and was not suitable for running around.The group rested in Mancang Town, and the secret guard rented a clean private house as a shelter for several people.

Xia Shuning hurriedly diagnosed and treated Zhao Xiyan, but luckily there was no serious problem, and heaved a sigh of relief, she turned around and ordered her maid to decoct the medicine.Lin Haotian finally saw Zhao Xiyan for the first time, but it was a pity that Zhao Xiyan was unconscious, and Lin Haotian was very worried.

"Your Majesty, how is the prince's injury?"

"My lord fell from the cliff and injured his internal organs. His internal injuries were serious and he dragged on for a long time. It's a blessing to be able to survive until I come. Now I can't heal his internal injuries. I don't know how long he can last if he delays. "

"It's all due to my subordinate's ineffectiveness. I failed to protect the prince on the cliff of Nanshan that day."

"Don't say that, the two of you followed the prince all the way that day. If you hadn't found me in time, I'm afraid we wouldn't be able to find the location of this cliff, and the prince would be shot dead by them. Now I can retrieve a Life is a blessing.”

"The subordinates have already sent people to look for Mr. Poison Sage, but Mr. Poison Sage's whereabouts are erratic, I'm afraid it's..."

"I will never give up until the end."

"Ashamed subordinate."

"Go to the surrounding area and find out the terrain. Don't call the prince's men here again. The prince can't stand the trouble, do you know?"

"Yes"

How could Lin Haotian not know the seriousness of the situation, he must protect the prince and side concubine, otherwise he will die and die.Lin Haotian left a little mark along the way, and he doesn't know if his companions who are still in Yangzhou City can be found.Lin Haotian wandered around the town with his men and horses, and quickly figured out the terrain and streets of Mancang Town.At this time, Qin Huaian had just arrived in Yangzhou City, and as soon as he entered the city, he heard that someone had injured the gatekeeper and fled out of the city in the middle of the night.Qin Huaian wanted to know who this group of people was, but he didn't even know the guards had met them face to face.After several turnarounds, Qin Huaian still found out that he was from the Ministry of War, but it was also heard that he was a fake.Qin Huai'an was in great confusion. It was said that he was a nominal servant of the Ministry of War, and Zhao Xiyan was a minister of the Ministry of War, but they had never taken office, so they didn't know who was in the Ministry of War.Qin Huaian was even more puzzled, but he always felt that this matter had something to do with Zhao Xiyan.Qin Huaian inquired about Zhao Xiyan everywhere in Yangzhou City, but no one knew him.He began to wonder if Zhao Xiyan had changed his course halfway. How could such a world-renowned person be known by no one.Qin Huaian had forgotten that Zhao Xiyan was in trouble, but he was not as handsome as usual.

Xia Shuning and his party rested in Mancang Town for several days, but they did not find any trace of the prince's minions, but they also failed to meet the hidden guards.But there was good news. It turned out that the hidden guards had discovered the traces of the Poison Saint.It turned out that the poison sage had heard that the ducks in Jinling were delicious, so he came here in midsummer.Xia Shuning thanked heaven and earth, the blind cat met a dead mouse, and hit it right.Xia Shuning gave the token of her father Xia Changqing to the secret guard to find the Poison Sage, and handed it over to the Poison Sage, and the Poison Sage would come here.
