"Men! Prepare a horse for me! "
In the front hall of the Qin Residence, Han Yuxi, Madam Qin, and Qin Huaiyu sat on the bench anxiously. Qin Qiong, on the other hand, kept pacing back and forth in front of the door, looking very anxious.
After a moment, Qin Qiong could no longer hold it in and ordered the servant outside the door.
"Master! But just now, His Majesty … "
Madam Qin knew what her husband wanted to do, but Dugu Xin had already conveyed Li Er's intentions very clearly. Although Madam Qin was very worried about Li Zexuan's safety, she was also afraid that Qin Qiong's actions would make Li Er unhappy.
"It's fine! His Majesty is just worried that my body won't be able to hold on, but Xiao Xuan is not only Yuxi's husband, but also my savior. Now that someone is trying to harm him, how can I just stand by and watch? Back then, I could even kill a few rounds in the formation of ten thousand soldiers. Now, it's just an assassin. How can I be afraid of him? "
After Qin Qiong finished speaking, he looked at Han Yuxi, who was crying silently beside him, and comforted her, "Yuxi, don't be too sad. Xiao Xuan might not be in trouble now. This kid has always been lucky. Back then, the heavens wanted to take his life, but they didn't succeed. This time, he will definitely be able to turn misfortune into luck! Just sit here for a while. Godfather will bring your husband back in one piece! "
"Thank you, Godfather! Yuxi and husband will never forget Godfather's kindness! "
Han Yuxi cried and kowtowed.
"Alright! I'm going now! Huaiyu, take good care of your mother and godsister! "
Qin Qiong waved his hand and left.
"Patriarch! Zhuang Qi will go with you! "
"I want to go too!"
"I want to go too, Patriarch!"
Everyone in the Qin Family already knew about the assassination attempt on Li Zexuan. At this moment, when the group of guards saw that Qin Qiong was going alone, how could they be willing to let him go? One after another, they volunteered to follow along.
"Zhuang Qi, Mei Wenhua! The two of you come with me. The rest of you stay! "
Qin Qiong frowned and shouted.
He had been to the Han Manor more than once and knew that the road there was not wide. If he brought too many people, it would affect the speed of the rescue. This was also one of the reasons why he insisted on going there personally. Dugu Xin had brought five hundred men with him. If these five hundred men wanted to reach the scene of the incident at the same time, they would have to sacrifice speed and arrive late. Unless Dugu Xin left the rest of the team behind and rushed there alone.
However, he did not know much about Dugu Xin's martial arts, so he naturally did not trust him.
"Yes, Master ~!"
Hearing this, Zhuang Qi and Mei Wenhua roared in excitement. The two of them mounted their horses and were about to leave with Qin Qiong. The other family generals saw Qin Qiong's serious face. Although they were unwilling, no one dared to raise any objections at such a crucial time. This was Qin Qiong's prestige. He ruled the family like he ruled the army!
"Shu Bao! Let me give you a hand too ~! "
At this moment, Niu Jinda came over with two guards. Clearly, Niu Jinda and Qin Qiong thought of the same thing. Saving people was like putting out a fire. If they brought too many people, it would affect the speed of the rescue.
Dugu Feiying belonged to the Right Wuwei, and Niu Jinda was the General of the Right Wuwei. (Yuchi Gong was the General of the Right Wuwei. The Right Wuwei was different from the Right Wuwei. There were sixteen guards in the Tang Dynasty, and the two belonged to different armies. Therefore, Niu Jinda was one of the earliest people to know about Li Zexuan's assassination.
People like Cheng Yaojin and Yuchi Jingde would receive the news later.
Niu Jinda received Dugu Feiying's message in the afternoon and wanted to come over to tell Qin Qiong. Who knew that when he arrived at the entrance of the Qin Manor, he saw Li Zexuan's new carriage with feathered arrows. He thought for a moment and understood. Now that Qin Qiong was ready to leave, Niu Jinda could not help but sigh. What a coincidence.
"Haha ~! Good ~! Today, I can fight side by side with Jinda again ~! I want to see who dares to openly assassinate a country's county's man ~! Let's go ~! "
Qin Qiong laughed and rode side by side with Niu Jinda. The six men and six horses rushed toward Chang 'an City's Yanxing Gate.
…
"Whoosh ~!"
Just as Qin Qiong and Niu Jinda expected, Dugu Xin's group left Yanxing Gate and left the official road. Looking at the small path that could only allow three horses to pass side by side, Dugu Xin couldn't help but frown and quickly stopped the group.
If the cavalry were to run at high speed on such a narrow path, if someone in the group got into an accident and broke the rhythm, the entire cavalry group would suffer heavy losses.
"Jiang Chao, you lead the brothers at the back at half speed. I will go with Feiying first. Otherwise, it will be too late! Feiying will leave a mark for you. You just have to follow me ~! "
Dugu Xin made a prompt decision and ordered the general.
"Yes, sir ~! General, be careful ~! "
The bearded general beside Dugu Xin bowed and cupped his fists.
"Mm ~! Feiying ~! Let's go ~! "
Dugu Xin nodded, then urged his black horse to charge out.
"Mm, Big Brother ~!"
…
"Father ~! Father ~! This is bad ~! I heard that Xiaoxuan was assassinated ~! "
Cheng Chumo hurriedly ran into his own backyard and shouted at Cheng Yaojin, who was playing with a horse lance.
"Assassinated ~? Who dares to assassinate him ~? That kid's martial arts are so powerful ~! "
Cheng Yaojin stopped what he was doing and looked at Cheng Chumo suspiciously. He wondered if his son's brain was damaged.
"Father! It's true ~! Huaiyu just sent someone to tell me that Xiaoxuan was ambushed by an expert in the eastern suburbs. He's probably still in a tough fight ~! "
Cheng Chumo knew that his father did not trust him. He glared at him and said anxiously.
"Mm ~? How dare you ~! Someone dares to kill the younger generation that I, Cheng Yaojin, have high hopes for? Why are you still standing there? Hurry up and get the horse for me ~! "
Seeing that Cheng Chumo was serious, Cheng Yaojin realized that the situation was serious. He glared at him and shouted.
"Okay, okay, okay ~! Father, I'll go with you ~! Who dares to touch my, Cheng Chumo's, brother? I'll make him regret living in this world ~! And I just heard from Huaiyu that Uncle Qin is going as well ~! "
Cheng Chumo rubbed his fists and said angrily.
"Go, go, go. Hurry up if you want to go. With your insignificant martial arts skills, you'd better know your place ~!"
Cheng Yaojin waved his hand and said impatiently.
Cheng Chumo's eyes widened, and his face was full of "F * ck". He also felt like he had been dealt a heavy blow. Is this old man even my real father ~?!
"What are you looking at ~? Hurry up ~! "
Cheng Yaojin said unhappily.
"Oh ~!"
Cheng Chumo grunted and went to the stable to get the horse.
Soon, two horses also came out of the Cheng residence and headed east of Chang 'an.
Just like that, Li Jingmo, Qin Qiong, Niu Jinda, Dugu Xin, and Cheng Yaojin led the five rescue teams to the scene of the incident in the shortest time possible.
