The Song Dynasty has been deliberate for 16 years, only to know that it is the Water Margin

Chapter 152

As Zhao Tun entered Qingcao Gorge, the pursuers from behind also arrived at the mouth of the gorge.

At this moment, suddenly several arrows were shot from the small hills on both sides of the canyon, but the arrows were so fast, the dozens of riders at Taniguchi did not expect an ambush here, and two people were shot off their horses unexpectedly.

This is not over yet, I don't know what is tied to the feathered arrow, it looks like a bamboo tube, and it is constantly emitting black smoke at the moment. The black smoke is strong and smelly. His head yelled loudly, his face was ashen, each of them was unsteady, and fell off the horse.

These dozens of riders were brought by Wanyan Zonghan. At this moment, Wanyan Zonghan's face was cloudy and he said suddenly: "Back up a hundred steps!"

At this time, his mind was still chasing after Zhao Tun, his mind was full of Wanyan Aguda's death. Not the sons of Wanyan Aguda, but Wanyan Wu begging for money!
Then what?Then there was his father, Wanyan Sagai, but his father was old, and if there were no accidents, he would be far from being able to survive Wanyan Wu's begging, so what would happen?

He Wanyan Zonghan has the title of the eldest prince of the Kingdom of Jin, but this title does not mean that he is really the prince, but that he is the oldest in his generation. become real?

Originally, he didn't have so many ideas. Wanyan Aguda was in his prime, and Wanyan Wu Qimai was younger. He couldn't get into the auxiliary government affairs for a while, so he could only continue to suffer.

But now it's different, the seat that he thought would be vacated after his father's death has already appeared...

Thinking of this, Wanyan Zonghan yelled: "There are heavy troops from the Liao Kingdom ambushing above the canyon, retreat!"

The following riders looked at each other in blank dismay, some just thought for a few breaths and then rode back, while others glanced at the canyon, then at Wanyan Zonghan, and opened their mouths as if they wanted to continue chasing.

The dozens of cavalry who could follow were not ordinary cavalry, otherwise their horsepower would not be able to catch up with Wanyan Baohua's Chi Ji, and most of them were either clan members or generals of the court.

At this time, someone said: "Nianhan, it's not right to leave like this?"

Wanyan Zonghan glanced at this person, and said coldly: "Ba Lisu, didn't you see an ambush in the canyon ahead? We only have a few dozen riders, and we are not afraid of hundreds of thousands of people fighting on flat ground. ...If the two sides are blocked by the other side, and you drop this poison, what will you do?"

After speaking, Yan Zonghan pointed to the two tubes shot down with arrows in the distance. At this moment, the black smoke in the tubes had run out, but among the few people who fell off their horses after smelling the black smoke, all but one was panting heavily. There is still consciousness, but the rest are half dead.

Ba Lisu's face was also ugly when he heard the words: "I don't know what kind of poison it is, when did the Liao Kingdom have such a thing?"

Wanyan Zonghan said: "Come here, wrap these two tubes with clothes and take them back. Not to mention the Liao army ambushing here, a hundred miles ahead is the Liao territory. There is absolutely no reason to pursue them."

Ba Lishou said: "How can I explain when I go back?"

Wanyan Zonghan said: "What are you going to confess? Yuan Yi was not recruited by us. Whoever recruits this person to Huining will confess!"

Ba Lisu's eyes flickered and said: "Isn't that..."

Wanyan Zonghan sneered and said: "The most important thing right now is to stabilize the court situation. Please understand that Ban Bo will succeed to the throne. As for the matter of revenge for His Majesty, will the Liao Kingdom still run away with the whole country? If you pull away quickly, you won't Do you think that this matter was done by Yuan Yi himself, and not ordered by the Liao Kingdom?"

Ba Lisu said: "Of course it's not..."

Wanyan Zonghan said: "Since that's the case, the Liao Kingdom will be left there. Yelu Yanxi is the real murderer who killed His Majesty. If you want to avenge Your Majesty, you must kill Yelu Yanxi. Now retreat immediately!"

After he finished speaking, he turned his horse's head and left. Ba Lisu looked at his back thoughtfully, looked back at the top of the canyon, and beat his horse to follow.

Zhao Tun had passed through the Qingcao Gorge at this moment, but he still ran forward without stopping.

Wanyan Baohua hugged him, suddenly her body trembled, a mouthful of blood spurted out, staining his skirt red.

"Liu Lang..."

Zhao Tun hugged her tightly: "Princess, I'll be there soon, I'll be in Song Kingdom soon."

"Liu Lang, in fact, as long as I'm with you, wherever I am, I will..."

Another mouthful of blood spewed out, Wanyan Baohua didn't say anything more, Zhao Tang felt that she was slowly loosening his hand, and couldn't help but sink in his heart.

Even though he knew that Wanyan Baohua was bound to die, he didn't want her to die on this bumpy escape, he always wanted to die peacefully in a clean place.

Zhao Tang took a deep breath, looked back, and saw a person standing on the hill in the canyon in the distance, waving at him to let him move on.

Zhao Tun recognized Huang Gu, so he stopped hesitating and galloped away...

In the evening, in a wild forest, a new grave has just been erected under a big tree.

The three of Xiaoniang watched Zhao Tun engrave a piece of wood with a dagger, on which was the tomb of Wanyan Baohua, signed by Liu Lang.

Zhao Tang didn't know Liu Lang's name, maybe this Liu surname was fake, just to correspond to that poem to make Wanyan Baohua emotional, but he could only write it like this.

Whether this Liu Lang is sincere or not to Wanyan Baohua, these are not important anymore, after all, both of them are gone.

In this world, countless stories are staged every day, whether they are joyful, sad, intense, or desolate, no matter right or wrong, they are just passers-by in the world.

Zhao Tang thought, after returning to Tokyo, let Tong Guan check to see if he can find out Liu Lang's real identity, if he can, then go to his home and let Wanyan Baohua enter his family, that's all. The princess' last wish.

It was late at this moment, dusk had come, and the slanting rays of light poured down through the branches and leaves of the big trees, making the grave a golden color.

Zhao Tun took one last look, then turned his head and said softly, "Let's go!"

Not far ahead is the border, where there are many mountains and narrow roads, Jurchen soldiers rarely appear, it is the best choice to cross the border, thinking of this, Zhao Tang also understands in his heart, why Wanyan Baohua chose this direction for him to leave, can't help but There was another sigh in my heart.

They were going to the Liao Kingdom immediately, and the killing of Wanyan Aguda was earth-shattering. As for how the Jurchen would react at this moment, it was hard to say, but the sooner they left, the better.

The four got on the horses, Zhao Tun rode the Chiji, the horse turned back every step, until Zhao Tun urged it several times, then raised its hooves and galloped forward.

After passing a few more mountain depressions ahead, the terrain finally became flatter, but it was still not a plain, so I could barely run a horse. The young lady identified it carefully, and said: "This should be the boundary of Taizhou, and it has entered the Liao territory. There are many mountains here. After this mountain, the road will be easier."

Zhao Tong nodded, and the group of people continued to move forward, but the mountain was difficult everywhere, but the sky gradually darkened.
