Yang Guang frowned. Sure enough, someone in the Liang Kingdom was plotting against him. He asked softly:"Is there any countermeasure?"

Zhang Heng said:"Your Highness is newly married. If you wear red at first glance, you can sworn sworn relatives with Yipao, the king of Ngee An County, so as not to stand out."

Yang Guang suddenly Understand that Yipao sworn sworn sworn brotherhood is the exchange of robes and sworn sworn brotherhood. Yang Guang took a step forward and said to Xiao Jue:"The county prince and I are in love and treat each other as close friends. Why don't we swear to Yi Pao and become brothers of life and death."

Xiao Jue was overjoyed and said,"That's what I have in mind."

The two hit it off immediately. Yang Guang, who was one year older than Xiao Jue, became his brother and Xiao Jue his younger brother. The two returned to the cabin, took off their robes, and changed each other's robes to show their life-and-death bond.

The two were similar in age, and they exchanged robes and they fit well. At this time, the cruise ship had turned around and returned. Yang Guang asked:"I am a person from the customs. I feel tired. I wonder if I can get off the ship early.

" You can stop at the shore and rent a sedan chair to go back."

Yang Guang said:"This is the best."

The cruise ship they took stopped at the shore. Zhang Heng was in front and helped Yang Guang get off the cruise ship. When he reached the shore, Yang Guang looked at the people on the ship. Xiao Jue shouted:"Brother Wang, you can go back to the ferry first and take the tour another day." Xiao Jue waved goodbye and the cruise ship moved on.

Yang Guang, Zhang Heng and others rented a sedan on the shore and hurried back to the palace. Xiao Jue was the only one standing on the bow of the ship to watch the scenery. Suddenly he saw ripples on the water and a commotion on both sides of the ship.

Xiao Jue felt something was wrong and didn't have time to walk to the side of the boat. Water ghosts had already swam there, and several water ghosts suddenly jumped out of the water, boarded the boat, and came threateningly with single swords in hand.

Xiao Jue was suddenly shocked:"Who are you? Dare to hijack an official ship?"

A water ghost said:"Stop talking nonsense and take it down."

The people on the left and right rushed forward, took down Xiao Jue and tied him up. , stuffed into sacks, and escorted back to the shore. This is:

How can we talk about the double bond of life and death, originally brother-in-law and brother-in-law.

Just to deceive others, he changed his robe and belt to escape.

Yang Guang returned to the palace, and before reaching the back court, he said to Zhang Heng, the chief official:"We have always invited Su Wei and Cui Hongdu to come to the palace to discuss matters." Zhang Heng was about to turn around,"Wait a minute," Yang Guang said,"Don't disturb Concubine Xiao."

"yes."

Zhang Heng rode quickly to the post house. Two ministers, Su Wei and Cui Hongdu, were drinking tea in the front hall. Zhang Heng came in a hurry and said,"My lords, His Highness the King of Jin has something urgent to discuss.

Cui Hongdu asked:"What happened?""

"Today we were out on the river, fearing that someone might be following us, so His Highness and I got off the boat early. Cui

Hongdu glanced at Su Wei, who said:"The matter is over, let's go see King Jin quickly.""The two got up and immediately followed Zhang Heng to the palace.

At this time, Yang Guang was uneasy and restless. After thinking about it, he knew that there must be someone who rebelled against the Sui Dynasty in the Western Liang Kingdom and harmed him. At this time, Su Wei and Cui Hongdu arrived. Su Wei Seeing Yang Guang's expression, he hurriedly asked:"I heard that Jiang Shang was frightened during our trip today, but is it true? Yang

Guang clasped his hands together, rubbed his palms, and said thoughtfully:"Today while traveling on the river, Zhang Heng noticed that there was another ship following him. Fearing that he might have malicious intentions, he asked me and the seventh prince Xiao Jue to change their sworn robes and pretend to escape." I think there must be people in Jiangling City who won't tolerate me, Yang Guang, and want to return to Jiangbei as soon as possible. What do you think, sir?

Su Wei asked:"What about Xiao Jue?""

"I don’t know life or death.

Su Wei said:"In this case, we need to make plans in advance to prevent unexpected events.""

""Yes." Yang Guang nodded and said:"You two adults, go back and pack your bags quickly. It's too late tonight. We will leave Jiangling early tomorrow morning to welcome the bride back."

Cui Hongdu said:"Your Highness, please be careful and do not go out.""

Su Wei and Cui Hongdu received Yang Guang's instructions and went back to their mansions, arranged for their men to pack their bags and wait for the opportunity to return. Yang Guang wore Xiao Jun's clothes and returned to the back court. When Xiao

Jun saw that Yang Guang had changed his clothes, he asked:"His Royal Highness's maroon python robe. Why not?"

Yang Guangyan said:"Today Xiao Jue and I talked about poetry and scenery, but our friendship was sad. Yi Pao became sworn brothers in life and death. Xiao

Jun laughed unconsciously and said:"How can there be such a sworn sworn relationship? Originally, one of you is a brother-in-law and the other is a brother-in-law. You are still sworn brothers. It's really nonsense." Yang Guang also smiled and said:"

Fortunately, my brother-in-law is about the same age as me, and the clothes fit me perfectly, so there is no problem in wearing them."

Xiao Jun said:"Today the Eighth Prince came to play in the house. Seeing that His Highness is not here, I'm afraid he will come again tomorrow.""

"The day to return to Beijing is approaching, so it doesn't hurt to play with Xiao Yu."Here the couple were talking and laughing, and over there Zhang Heng had secretly started to pack his things and prepare to leave....

Besides, Xiao Jue was robbed by a group of unknown men and the boat was snatched back to the shore. Anping King Xiao Yan and the second prince Xiao Gu had been waiting on the shore for a long time. Everyone dragged the sacks close to them. A water ghost said:"The King of Raising Soldiers." Driving, we were ordered to seize the person holding the red robe, and this person is wearing a red robe." Xiao Wei asked:"Why is there only one person?"

A leader said:"The other boatmen and others are all on board."

"Are Su Wei and Cui Hongdu here?"

"These two people have not been seen."

Xiao Gu hesitated, and Anping Wang Xiao Yan said:"Open the sack first."

A water ghost held a single knife, cut the tether, opened the entrance of the sack, and exposed the head. Xiao Yan, Xiao Gu's uncle and nephew took a closer look,"Oh, isn't this Lao Qi?"

Xiao Jue was so suffocated in the sack that the water ghosts were so frightened that they hurriedly took off the sack from the seventh prince Xiao Jue, uncovered the ropes, and repeatedly confessed his guilt. When

Anping King Xiao Yan saw it, he quickly changed the subject and said :"My nephew was frightened. Today we were hunting for water thieves. The water ghosts were conducting the search incognito. Maybe there was a misunderstanding and my nephew was arrested by mistake. Xiao Yan then said to several water ghosts:"Why don't you kneel down and kowtow?""

Several water ghost hands quickly knelt down and begged Xiao Jue for his life. Xiao Jue was a twelve-year-old boy after all. How could he know the conspiracy? Xiao Jue, who was furious, scolded and kicked the water ghost hands. After a few kicks, his anger subsided.

Anping King Xiao Yan sent an order to let the boatman go and sent Xiao Jue back to his house. Xiao Yan, Xiao Gu's uncle and nephew were dejected and dejected. The second prince, Xiao Gu, said:"Yang Guang was so cunning that he put the python robe of the Sui Dynasty on Xiao Jue and escaped. If he didn't get rid of it early, he would be a trouble in the future."

"well."Xiao Yan let out a long sigh,"Both attempts were not successful, and we need to consider the long term."The uncle and nephew returned to the city one after the other.

Xiao Yan and Xiao Gu were walking back. Xiao Gu said:"It's really unlucky that Yang Guang's son escaped today. Why don't you come to my house? Drinking"

"It's okay, after a hard day, have a glass of wine in the evening."

The second prince Xiao Chen returned to the house and ordered people to prepare wine and food. With the moonlight lingering, the uncle and nephew sat in the courtyard drinking and chatting.

Xiao Chen filled the glass with wine and said while clasping his little finger between his teeth:" After the wedding, Yang Guang stayed in Liangguo for three days. In two days, Yang Guang will return to Jiangbei. Time is running out."

"My nephew sent more people to keep an eye on Yang Guang. He must be captured within two days."

"Um."Xiao Wei nodded and was thinking about it. Suddenly a guard came to the room in a hurry.

"Why are you running? What's the rush?"

"Your Highness, the general manager of the Zhao branch has urgently reported that the Sui Dynasty envoys are packing their bags overnight and have begun loading."

There was a hint of surprise in Xiao Wei's eyes, and he looked at the emperor's uncle Xiao Yan. Xiao Yan said:"It seems that Yang Guang and others have noticed it, and they have been disrupted by it. Xiao

Wei made a decision immediately and said to the guards:"Immediately order Zhao Xingnei to pick up three hundred soldiers and go to the ferry to ambush. If he sees Yang Guang, he will arrest him on the spot.""

After a night, when the sky was just getting brighter, Cui Hongdu rushed to Yang Guang's palace early in the morning. Yang Guang knew that he must be leaving Jiangling, so he hurried to the living room. When Cui Hongdu saw Yang Guang, he said:"Your Highness, all the luggage They are all loaded onto ships and can cross the river just waiting for His Highness’s order.

Yang Guang said:"I will find an excuse to take Concubine Xiao to the ferry. You and Su Wei will wait for me there." Before he finished speaking

, a maid ran to the front hall. Yang Guang changed the subject and asked,"What's the matter?""

"Your Highness, the Eighth Prince Xiao Yu is here."

"Got it, I'll go right away."When Yang Guang saw the maid leaving, he said to Cui Hongdu:"I will take the Eighth Prince out to play and go to meet you."

"Well, Your Highness, please be more careful, I will take the first step. Cui Hongdu said goodbye and left first.

Yang Guang straightened his clothes and went to the front yard. Xiao Jun was playing with Xiao Yu. Yang Guang said,"It's so lively. The eighth brother is here so early." When Xiao

Yu saw Yang Guang, he bowed first and said,"Xiao Yu came here to visit Brother Wang.""

"Brother Wang came just in time. I am preparing to go out with your sister today, so why not go together. Xiao

Yu was overjoyed and clapped his hands, but Xiao Jun was confused and asked,"How come I don't know that Your Highness is going out?""

"Oh, this has just been decided. I'm afraid that my beloved concubine will be bored in the house."Xiao Jun was very happy after hearing this, so he changed his clothes and went out with Yang Guang and the eighth prince Xiao Yu. Yang Guang drove alone in one car, and Xiao Jun and Xiao Yu shared the second car. The two sets of carriages and horses were driving forward. Just after leaving the east gate of Jiangling, the coachman stopped the carriage. Yang Guang opened the curtain and asked the coachman:"Why doesn't the carriage leave?" The coachman replied:"The principal, Zhang Heng, is waiting at the roadside.""

Yang Guang jumped off the carriage, Zhang Heng walked closer and said,"Your Highness is not allowed to go to the ferry."

"Could there be another accident? Zhang Heng said:"

Early in the morning, Prime Minister Su saw soldiers bravely entering and exiting the ferry. He suspected that something was going on. Just in case, His Highness asked his Highness to board another boat on the river beach to cross the river.""

Yang Guangda was shocked and said:"Just as you said, go to the river beach and take a boat, and quickly lead the way."

Zhang Heng got on his horse, followed by palace carriages and horses. Zhang Heng spurred his horse forward, and the carriage behind him also galloped away. Xiao Jun and Xiao Yu were riding in the second carriage, which was bumping. Xiao Jun opened the shed curtain and asked:"Why is the carriage running so fast?

The groom replied:"The King of Jin's chariot is speeding up all the way. I don't know why?""

Xiao Jun felt uneasy, but Xiao Yu thought it was fun and never tired of it. But after a while, he arrived at the river beach.

Yang Guang jumped off the carriage and walked to the river beach. There was a slight breeze on the river. Looking from a distance, there was indeed a small boat on the river. Looking around, he saw that it was vast and difficult to ambush, so Yang Guang said to Zhang Heng:"Please quickly invite Concubine Xiao to get on the boat."

Xiao Jun and the young prince Xiao Yu got off the carriage and took a look at the river beach. It was not a tourist ferry, it was just a deserted beach. Xiao Jun asked:"This place is deserted. Where do you want to go, Your Highness?"

"Taking a boat trip on the river has a unique atmosphere."Xiao Jun and the eighth prince Xiao Yu didn't know what happened, so they boarded the small shed boat, and several Jin Wang's entourage also boarded the boat.

Yang Guang saw that the entourage had already boarded the boat, and called Zhang Heng aside:"I How could the Liang soldiers let Su Wei and Cui Hongdu go if they left alone? Zhang Heng said:"

Your Highness, don't worry. Su Xiangguo asserted that as long as Liang Bing can't hold His Highness, he will not dare to hurt the ministers. Besides, His Highness not only took away Concubine Xiao, but also took away the prince Xiao Yu. We don't need to be afraid?" Yang

Guang nodded, patted Zhang Heng's shoulder twice, and said,"With everyone's help, why worry about my success in the Sui Dynasty?""Yang Guang turned around and left, boarded a small shed boat, and sailed away. Waves of microwaves appeared on the river, and he gradually walked away.

At Jiangling Ferry, Su Wei and Cui Hongdu arranged the boat back to the capital, and everyone was about to board the boat. , suddenly two Liang soldiers arrived suddenly and rushed towards the embankment. The

Liang soldiers were lined up on both sides, and two horses came running at a walk. The leader was none other than Anping Wang Xiao Yan, the other was the second prince Xiao Qi, and Anping Wang Xiao Yan said:"Su Xiangguo, Mr. Cui boarded the ship in a hurry, why did you leave without saying goodbye? Su

Wei bowed his hands and said,"His Royal Highness the King of Jin has something to do. Your Majesty and Mr. Cui need to return to the capital early, so I don't have time to say goodbye in the future. I hope King Anping will forgive me.""

Xiao Yan said:"This morning I learned that His Royal Highness the King of Jin was traveling with the princess, and I only came here to escort him as per the Emperor's instructions."

"But King Jin was not on the boat." Su Wei said

"Hum hum, you can tell at a glance whether King Jin and the princess are on board."

Cui Hongdu saw that Xiao Yan's uncle and nephew were thinking about searching the ship, so he whispered to Su Wei:"Xiangguo, I think it is better to go to Emperor Liang to ask for an imperial edict."

"It's good to get together and get together well, don't turn against each other, otherwise it will ruin King Jin's happiness. Su Wei narrowed his eyes, bowed and said with a smile:"When the King of Jin travels, he has his own bodyguards to escort him. Prince He Lao is here with his troops.""

Xiao Yan said:"The safety of King Jin and the princess is of great importance, and I dare not neglect it. Su

Wei said:"In that case, what's the harm in opening the three big ships and letting King Anping check them out?""

"That would be very offensive."Anping King Xiao Yan waved his hand, and the soldiers on the left and right were divided into three teams, and each boarded the ship to search for Jin Wang Yang Guang. The cabins, partitions, and decks of the three large ships were all searched. Su Wei and Cui Hongdu looked calm and unflustered.

Suddenly there was a rapid sound of horse hoofbeats, and the principal Zhang Heng was seen riding on horseback. When Su Wei saw Zhang Heng coming, a stone fell to the ground. It was known that Jin Wang Yang Guang and Princess Xiao Jun had already crossed the river to the north.

Zhang Heng came to the shore, He got off his horse, walked to Su Wei, and whispered:"The King of Jin has crossed the river to the north. Su

Wei looked happy and pursed his lips, but Liang Bing did not see Yang Guang and Xiao Jun in the three boats. Su Wei and Cui Hongdu were secretly happy when they saw that Liang Bing had gained nothing.

Su Wei walked to Anping King Xiao Yan , cupped his hands and said:"Your Majesty, since there is no Prince Jin on board, I will leave first."

Xiao Yan and Xiao Gu's uncle and nephew were so unhappy that they were so angry that their noses were filled with thick breaths. They clasped their fists at Su Wei and said,"I won't give it away."

Su Wei boarded the boat and took the boat with Cui Hongdu, Zhang Heng and others to return to the north of the Yangtze River.

Three large boats from the Sui Dynasty went all the way north, looking for the small shed boat that Yang Guang was riding in along the way, but there were waves of light on the river. The fog made it difficult to see clearly, and they arrived at the North Bank inadvertently. When everyone arrived at the North Bank, there was already a group of people waiting here, holding high the flag of the Sui Army. The leader was wearing a maroon official robe and an official hat, with thick eyebrows and crane eyes, a garlic nose, and a The man with a short beard and a respectful figure was the right-guard general Yu Wenshu.

The planks of the boat were lowered, and Su Wei and Cui Hongdu stepped off the ship. Yu Wenshu also dismounted from his horse and greeted each other with a bow:"You two have worked hard all the way, and finally you will win." Su Xiangguo has a secret letter and is ordered to welcome His Royal Highness the King of Jin here."

"His Royal Highness the King of Jin is not on the big ship." Su Wei said

"That Jin King is here……"

Cui Hongdu said:"Someone in Liang State is planning to take hostages, and the King of Jin has used a trick to escape in a small boat."

"Well, the general will immediately send people to patrol along the river, and ask the two adults to rest at the Jiangbei camp first."

Yu Wenshu passed down an order and ordered his cavalry to set up a sentry every three hundred meters along the river to inspect the Jin King's boat. After an hour, a sentinel urged the horse to report:"A small boat was found to the east. shed boat"

"Take me to see it quickly."

Yu Wenshu rode his horse to the riverside and looked from a distance. Sure enough, a shed boat was slowly approaching. This shed boat was the small shed boat that Jin Wang Yang Guang was riding.

Yang Guang took Xiao Jun and the eighth prince Xiao Yu, all the way north along the river, getting farther and farther away from Jiangling. Xiao Jun stuck his head out from the boat shed to watch. Looking from a distance, he could no longer see the shore of Jiangling, but was close to the north bank.

Xiao Jun was a little panicked and asked Yang Guang"Your Majesty is traveling so far down the river, where do you want to go?"

"When the boat reaches the other side, it is Sui Dynasty."

Xiao Jun was shocked. He didn't expect that he would travel all the way to the Sui River bank. This is: hiding from the sky and disappearing across the sea, ranking first in the Thirty-Six Strategies.

He set sail in a light boat and looked at his hometown embankment from now on.
