I, the ninth grade county magistrate, scare the empress to tears at the beginning!

Chapter 164: Langya Hou of the Great Zhou Dynasty

And on a mountain road in Lingnan.

Song Wan'er, the wife of Lingnan County Governor Ren Xiao, was holding her several-month-old baby in her arms, and was running northward under the leadership of a guard and maid.

When King Wu Zhao Tuo came to besiege, one of Zhao Tuo's subordinates had a relationship with Ren Xiao, so he reported the news in advance, and Ren Xiao asked her to take her children and flee.

No matter how reluctant Song Wan'er was to let go, thinking of the baby in her arms, she had no choice but to say goodbye to Ren Xiao.

In order to hide easily, she put on the clothes of ordinary people and escaped from the city, but she still didn't look like an ordinary peasant woman.

As his name suggests, his gentle and quiet scholar's temperament is pure and flawless and cannot be concealed no matter what.

"This road seems wrong, Xiang'er." Song Wan'er suddenly stopped walking with the baby in her arms.

Before marrying Ren Xiao, she and the literati from Lingnan traveled to the nearby mountains, watched the magnificent sea of ​​clouds, and wrote a popular poem. The sentence "The setting sun melts gold, the dusk clouds merge together" was praised by the late emperor, who called her the most talented woman in Lingnan.

Therefore, she has a general understanding of the direction of this mountain range.

"Miss, I just followed the route ordered by the master." The maid Xiang'er's eyes flashed with a stern look, and she defended: "Miss, walk faster, the pursuers are catching up soon."

"No, this is definitely not the way to the north. This direction is southwest. Xiang'er, you must be mistaken." Song Waner hurriedly turned around, but was stopped.

"Miss, where are you going?" The guard stared at her eagerly, his hand on the hilt of his sword, and his threat could not be stronger.

"you……"

Song Wan'er's vision went dark and she was about to faint. She never thought that the maids and guards who were loyal to her would turn out to be traitors!

"Miss, if you are more honest, just follow us. In short, we will not let you die in the hands of King Wu!" Maid Xiang'er said coldly.

Song Wan'er tried to stay calm. From what Xiang'er said, it seemed that she and King Wu Zhao Tuo were not in the same group, so she asked, "Who are you from?"

Xiang'er hesitated and said, "The ship is at the dock. You will know when it arrives."

"Why did you betray me? Xiang'er, I rescued you from the bandits. I have treated you well over the years, right?" Song Wan'er asked Xiang'er with anger. At the critical moment, she could only hope that the maid would find out with her conscience, but when she saw Xiang'er's cold expression, she understood everything instantly.

Obviously, Xiang'er fell into the hands of the bandits as a result of a plan planned in advance.

In other words, she has been plotted against since a few years ago.

King Wu Zhao Tuo didn't have this patience, so there was another big shot behind the scenes.

"It's the traitor Su Quan, isn't it? He has been coveting the heirlooms of our Song family for a long time."

About a few years ago, Su Quan sent someone to threaten the Song family to hand over their treasures, but Song Wan'er ignored them at all. Who would have thought that the late emperor passed away suddenly and the treacherous prime minister Su Quan took control of the government.

"What a lot of nonsense! If you don't leave, I'll send you two to accompany Ren Xiao!" the knife-wielding guard shouted viciously.

Song Wan'er felt desperate.

Her husband died tragically, and now she is being plotted against by Su Quan...

Regardless of whether he fell into the hands of Su Quan or King Wu Zhao Tuo, he would be humiliated and die.

Her only hope...is her husband's sworn brother, the magistrate of Cangyun County, Mr. Lu Yuan.

She heard her husband say that Lu Yuan had ambitions when he was young.

Back then, Ren Xiao and Lu Yuan entered the palace to meet the saints together with their excellent imperial examination results. However, Lu Yuan proposed several reforms in the court, which touched the deep-seated interests of the nobles and angered the late emperor. He was assigned to the desolate Cangyun County as the county magistrate. Ren Xiao was highly regarded by the late emperor, and more than ten years later he was promoted to the governor of Lingnan County and controlled the three counties.

However, more than twenty years later, Lu Yuan has become a powerful figure. Who would have dared to think that a mere ninth-grade county magistrate would actually assist Jiang Linglong in his great cause of restoring the country!

When she and Ren Xiao got married, Lu Yuan sent someone to deliver a precious elixir. After taking it, it directly improved Ren Xiao's realm. She was extremely surprised at the time.

She and Ren Xiao had recently discussed that when their children were older, they would go to Cangyun County to visit Lu Yuan...

But judging from the situation in front of her, she probably wouldn't be able to reach Cangyun County safely.

There is a cliff ahead, and below it is the surging river.

Song Wan'er took advantage of the two of them being unprepared, jumped into the river, and disappeared into the rolling river water.

The maid Xiang'er and the guard could only worry while standing on the shore, blaming each other for not keeping an eye on Song Wan'er.

Not long after, a figure flew up from the bottom of the cliff.

The man was dressed as a scholar and was as light as a swallow. He stepped on the back of a condor and slowly floated to the ground with the help of the wind rising from the mountain stream.

Turn your back to them.

"Who are you?" The maid Xiang'er and the guard suddenly became nervous.

"Being sincere is the way of heaven; being sincere is the way of man."

The middle-aged scholar didn't seem to hear anyone asking, and was minding his own reading of some verses. The eagle landed on his left shoulder, staring straight at Xiang'er, making her shiver all over. .

As the scholar recited scriptures, the terrifying sound waves echoed throughout the valley.

The river water under the mountain stream also started to boil at this moment.

But what frightened the maid Xiang'er the most was that when the middle-aged scholar turned around, his face had no facial features.

She rubbed her eyes hard, but she saw a skeleton face without flesh and blood!

"This is... the formless magical skill. You are Senior Shura!"

The maid Xiang'er and the guards hurriedly knelt on the ground, because this person was a famous Shura scholar in the world, one of the top ten masters in the Great Zhou Dynasty, and he was someone they could never afford to offend!

"Scholar, what are the results of your search?"

A sassy shout came from afar.

There was a vibration on the ground, and then there was a rapid sound of horse hooves.

The jungle not far away was split into two by an unparalleled force, and a white dragon horse appeared in front of everyone like an afterimage.

The person holding the reins on the horse was a woman wearing chainmail, a red cloak, and a purple gold crown. She was like a cold moon, reflecting on the snow, cold and dazzling.

"Greetings to Lord Langyahou!"

After seeing clearly who was coming in front of them, the maid Xiang'er and the guards knelt down and worshiped again, with a hint of admiration in their tone.

Langyahou, a descendant of a famous family, was the great master of the Zhou Dynasty. He was also one of the ten masters of the Great Zhou Dynasty. He once killed 400,000 enemy troops and was powerful in the world.

Known as the number one female general in the Zhou Dynasty throughout history!

"It's a pity that I came a step too late. That Song Wan'er was carrying a treasure, which concealed her aura. I searched with the Wuxiang Divine Art, but couldn't find any clues." Scholar Shura responded lightly, "What about you? Marquis Langya. Your crotch The silhouette was running through the valley just now, have you made any discoveries?"
