Fifty-four, riding alone to save the beauty

If it weren't for the help of the Pan clan leader, even if Zhou Xuan was resourceful, he was not familiar with the place in Fuzhou, and his subordinates were separated and injured. It would be a big deal to rescue Princess Qingle from the treacherous monk Jingquan. The Pan clan leader was kind to Zhou Xuan, so Zhou Xuan must protect the safety of the Pan clan leader. Fortunately, the person who came from Qingyuan was Xiahou Yun, and he was also his father-in-law. He should be able to turn swords into jade.

Zhou Xuan looked at the people around him and said, "Simon, protect the princess, Xiaoqian and the others will stay in the hotel, and set off early tomorrow morning to go to Gushan."

Siqi frowned her eyebrows and said, "Master is going to take risks alone? My injuries have healed 60% of them, so I can fight."

Zhou Xuan said: "A gentleman speaks but does not act. I will convince others with reason and virtue."

The Siqi looked at Zhou Xuan with bare eyes and thought to himself: "No, when did the master become so pedantic and conspire with the tiger?"

"What are you trying to win people with virtue?" Princess Qingle revealed: "It's not because he recognizes Xiahou Liusu from Qingyuan! That woman is his favorite." Princess Qingle was still jealous of the female general last night.

"Xiahou Liusu?" Xiao Xuxiang poked out her head, stared at Zhou Xuan with wide eyes, and asked, "Son-in-law, is it the sister Liusu, the courtesan of Xuanzhou?"

From Xuanzhou to Jiangzhou, Xiao Xuxiang and Xiahou Liusu have been together for nearly two months, and they are harmonious. Xiao Xuxiang does not know Xiahou Liusu’s true identity. She doesn’t know why Xiahou Liusu and Yuer ran away later. At this time, she was surprised when she suddenly heard Xiahou Liusu’s name.

Zhou Xuan nodded and said, "It's her, okay, don't be too verbally. Just protect the princess. The leader of the wind mountain, Lihu and Lulu go with me. Doctor Fang, please go there without hesitation. It's easy to treat someone who is injured."

Princess Qingle shouted: "I don't live in a hotel. I want to follow you, just want to have a tryst with Xiahou Liusu!"

Zhou Xuan ignored her and said to Lihu: "Go and buy four drunk chickens as soon as possible."

After a while, four drunken chickens were bought, Zhou Xuan rode on the "Zhaoye Yuhua Cong", and the imperial physician Fang also rode a horse, strong tiger, and walked with the long mountain.

Zhou Xuan bowed to Sizi and said, "The fourth brother, be careful." He also told Princess Qingle not to behave, so he went around the town to go east. While eating chicken, he threw the chicken bones to Lulu to chew. But one money was spent in two, thinking: "Leave the princess, the fourth brother and the other four are all women, but the fourth brother is a fierce woman and is used to wandering around the world. Although he is injured, as long as he is not discovered by the Wu Yue soldiers of the brigade, there is no problem to protect the princess' safety."

The long road of winding mountains leads the way, and goes east along the north bank of the Minjiang River. After passing Gangtou Village, the surging Minjiang River is divided into two and reunites a hundred miles away. Gushan is located in the middle section of the Northern Minjiang River, and is still fifty or sixty miles away.

The bright moon rose, and the moon was sixteen on the fifteenth, and Zhou Xuan and the other four ran towards the silver basin-like moon.

The golden retriever Lulu seemed to know who he was looking for, ran in front of the long mountain, sniffed the roadside from time to time, and then ran forward.

Zhou Xuan thought to himself: "Captain Pan has never applied that kind of spice, so can Lulu smell it?" asked: "Captain Panshan, why did the Qingyuan people arrest your patriarch?"

The chief of the panshan stammered and said, "I don't know much. Lord Zhou would ask her personally when he saw me, the leader."

Zhou Xuan is such a smart person. When he heard that the Panshan Chief seemed to have concealed something, he said, "President Panshan Chief, you must tell me the truth. We are going to save people now. I know the whole story to save the Pan clan leader."

The chief of Panshan was not good at speaking, but when Zhou Xuan forced him to do so, he became even hesitant: "Master Zhou, this, our patriarch won't let me say this--"

Zhou Xuan said: "Captain Panshan, are you going to trap your clan leader in a dangerous place? You can't say it normally, but now is an extraordinary period. Clan leader Pan may be in danger at any time, so why are you hiding it!"

Banshan said: "Yes, yes, yes, I said, my family leader, actually Mr. Zhou already knows the name of my family leader. I also mentioned it before, Mr. Zhou, think about it--"

Zhou Xuan thought to himself: "What kind of thing is it? I have to guess and think about it. I only know that the beautiful matriarch's surname is Pan, and he has never mentioned her name-" Suddenly, and he blurted out: "Pan Yujiao, is she Pan Yujiao?"

Panshan Chang smiled and said, "This is what Lord Zhou guessed, not what I said. Lord Zhou now understands why Qingyuan people want to arrest the chief of the clan, right?"

"It turns out that Pan Yujiao is really Pan Yujiao. The head of the four major clan leaders of Shanha in Fujian is so young and so beautiful!" Zhou Xuan was surprised and happy, and all the questions were solved immediately. Pan Yujiao came to Fuzhou to contact the Shanha people in this area. Chen Si'an hated Pan Yujiao and Lei Meng betrayed him and defected to Tang State. When he learned that Pan Yujiao secretly left Zhangzhou and went to Fuzhou, he naturally had to send people to chase him. If Pan Yujiao was captured alive, he could move from Wuyue to rescue soldiers, killing two birds with one stone, and there would be great hope of recovering Zhangzhou.

Zhou Xuan smiled and said, "It turns out that she is not the leader of the Pan tribe, but the leader of the Pan tribe. She hides this from me and says she wants to accompany me to see Pan Yujiao. Haha, it turns out that the person I want to meet has been by my side for a long time, which is interesting!"

Chief Panshan said: "Mr. Zhou, if Chief Pan falls into the hands of the Qingyuan people, it will be bad. Lord Zhou must find a way to save her."

Zhou Xuan asked: "With the clan leader Pan Da and his familiarity with the terrain, how could he not get rid of Qingyuan's pursuit?"

Panshan long said: "Because there are people from the Lan family who lead the way!"

"Lan Lianchang's people!" Zhou Xuan frowned slightly, and the Shanha tribe in Fujian was not united. Lan Lianchang's Lan family was Chen Si'an's best friend. It was difficult for the four surnames of Shanha to unify. Pan Yujiao had to run around and asked: "How many people did the leader of Pan Da came to Fuzhou?"

Banshan said, "There are only four, two men and two women. Now the clan leader is only one person, and the other three are separated."

Zhou Xuan thought to himself: "It should be a very secretive thing for the Chief Pan to come to Fuzhou. Why did Chen Si'an know about it? I'm afraid there will be a traitor!"

After rushing for another journey, there was a lush mountain in front of me. The winding mountain said long: "This is Dafu Mountain. After passing Dafu Mountain, it is not far from Fuzhou City, while Gushan is located in the eastern suburbs of Fuzhou City."

At this time, Pan Yujiao and her female guard Axia were racing eastward at the western foot of Big Bible Mountain. They had been running for a day and a night. They had been working hard for a long time and night. Relying on their familiar terrain, they thought they had already lost the Qingyuan pursuers several times. However, before half an hour had stopped, the Shanha people who were surveillance came to report to them. The Qingyuan people caught up again, so they had to get on the horse and search for a road to escape, and went around and headed towards Gushan.

The phoenix crown worn by Pan Yujiao was long gone, and her long hair was tied into a bun, and she didn't rest much a day and night. Her beautiful face looked a little haggard, but her bright eyes were still very vivid, showing that this great patriarch who commanded the Pan family mountains in Fujian had extraordinary energy.

Pan Yujiao frowned. She thought it was easy to get rid of Qingyuan people, but she never expected that Qingyuan people would bite her like a shadow. Qingyuan people did not have tracking dogs like Zhou Jungong, so why could she always find her trace? Sometimes they had been thrown away for more than ten miles, but they could still find her accurately. This is so strange!

Pan Yujiao kept paying attention to Axia who was following her closely. Axia had been following her for six years and had always been loyal. She shouldn't have doubted Xia, but this matter was too strange, so it was absolutely right to be careful.

Suddenly, Pan Yujiao glanced at the corner of her eyes and quietly abandoned something on the ground. It was not because she was unintentionally lost, but because she was deliberately discarded.

"Axia, what did you leave behind?"

Pan Yujiao suddenly grabbed the horse, turned the horse's head, and asked coldly.

Axia was unable to close her power, and rode her horse to rush over Pan Yujiao. When she heard Pan Yujiao’s question, her face changed color and ran out seven or eight feet before she stopped the horse. She turned her head but did not get close to her. She pretended to be deaf and asked, "Captain, what's the matter?"

Pan Yujiao saw Axia's look of being ready to run away at any time, and immediately understood everything, both heartbroken and angry: "Axia, I treat you like a girl, why did you betray me?"

Axia panicked and said with a forced smile: "What did the chief of the clan say? How could Axia betray the chief of the clan? Let's run away quickly." As she said that, she turned her head and trotted while turning her head to look at Pan Yujiao.

Pan Yujiao stopped moving his horse, his voice striking like ice: "You deliberately threw down something and wanted to guide Qingyuan people to chase me, right? No wonder I couldn't get rid of their tracking even if I went around. It turned out to be you!"

Seeing that Pan Yujiao did not chase him, he was already twenty feet apart and was a little braver. He argued: "It's not me, I don't. The leader of the clan, don't be suspicious."

Pan Yujiao said: "You ran with me for a day and a night. Your martial arts skills are not low, and I am not guarding against you. You have many opportunities to attack me, so why don't you do it?"

Axia said, "How dare I, my maid!"

At this time, the sound of horse hooves sounded in the west, and almost at the same time, the sound of hooves came from the east. It seemed that the Qingyuan people knew that Pan Yujiao was going to take this path and rushed to the front to block it.

The pursuit is chasing, the block is blocked, the high and turbulent mountain on the left, and the surging Minjiang River on the right. Pan Yujiao seems to be unable to escape.

Pan Yujiao looked motionless and asked, "Axia, tell me why? What is worth betraying me? What benefits did Chen Si'an give you?"

Axia bit her lip and suddenly said loudly: "I like Mr. Lianchang, Mr. Lianchang promised to marry me."

Pan Yujiao was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "I sent you to see Lan Lianchang more than a month ago. I didn't expect that you would be fascinated by him in just a few days, but instead became the spy that Lan Lianchang was placed beside me - Axia, you are very good. I trust you so much, but you are going to kill me!"

Axia was cautious and said, "Class leader, the people of Qingyuan and Young Master Lianchang will not hurt your life, they just want to talk to you."

"If I fall into their hands, I, Pan Yujiao, will be worse than death!" As he said that, Pan Yujiao's slender and powerful legs suddenly squeezed the horse's belly, and the mount under his crotch jumped up quickly and ran out several feet in an instant.

Axia was shocked and urged the horse to escape, while drawing a knife in her hand.

Pan Yujiao touched a two-foot bow from the front of the saddle, and his technique was extremely fast. Three arrows were shot out, but Axia used a sword grid to drive them.

Pan Yujiao narrowed her eyes, bent her lips, smiled, and suddenly shouted loudly: "Go to die!" Her right hand was thrown out, and at some point a three-foot-long javelin on her hand was slashed, and it was as fast as lightning, penetrated straight into Axia's back heart.

Axia screamed and fell under the horse. One foot was still on the stirrup. She was dragged by the horse for more than ten feet before stopping. She was already exhausted.

Pan Yujiao couldn't sit upright, and heard the sound of hooves behind her like rain. They stopped ten feet away from her, and a rough voice shouted: "Pan Yujiao?"

Pan Yujiao slowly turned his horse's head. Under the bright moonlight, he saw a total of seventeen enemies, all of whom were black helmets and armor, and the outfits of Qingyuan soldiers. The leader was tall, nearly fifty years old, with a hedgehog-like beard, with a dark face as dark as a pot, and an eight-foot spear in his hand, with a mighty temperament.

Pan Yujiao had a leisurely look at her hair and asked, "Who are you?"

The fierce man with a whispered face and the hedgehog beard said rudely: "Xia Hou Yun, deputy lieutenant under Chen Dupu." He turned his head and asked someone beside him: "Is this Pan Yujiao?"

The man replied, "That's right."

Xiahou Yun laughed and said, "Captain Pan, just tie your hands. You are a woman, it's not very good to be injured. Husband Chen told me to be a good person to invite you to Quanzhou and treat you with courtesy."

Pan Yujiao asked: "Is Lan Lianchang here?"

Xiahou Yun said: "How could Mr. Lianchang come here! Grandpa Pan wants to see Mr. Lianchang, and you will naturally see him when you arrive in Quanzhou. Get off the horse, don't force me to do it!"

Although Xiahou Yun was just a family general of Chen Si'an, Pan Yujiao had heard of his name. This person was a powerful general in Qingyuan and had a daughter Xiahou Liusu, who was also very good at martial arts.

Pan Yujiao wondered how to get out. She was proficient in water and jumped into the Minjiang River. She thought that these Qingyuan people could not catch her. She smiled and asked, "How many soldiers Qian Weiyan promised to lend you?"

Xiahou Yun said: "This is a great patriarch who doesn't need to worry about you. Tonight, he will win 50,000 elite soldiers."

Pan Yujiao said: "It depends on whether you have the ability--" Before the voice fell, another dark and small javelin was thrown out, with a strong force, making a sharp roar that tore through the air.

With a "clang" sound, the javelin was opened by Xiahou Yun's spear, and the remaining momentum was not diminished. A "puff" sound pierced into the chest of a Qingyuan warrior behind Xiahou Yun, and blood was gushing out of his mouth, and he could not live anymore.

Xiahou Yun was furious and was about to urge the horse to fight, but suddenly he heard the sound of the bowstring and his body flashed rapidly, avoiding two arrows. Unpredictably, the horse was hit by an arrow in his head. The horse jumped violently. Xiahou Yun held it on the ground with a spear, jumped down from the ground, and shouted: "Pan Yujiao, don't eat the toast, please take the wine, see me capture you!" He strode forward and was about to capture Pan Yujiao.

At this moment, someone heard a loud voice: "Let's fight, I want to say a few words."

Under the moonlight, a gray horse ran towards the mountain road to the west. When we got closer, the passenger immediately turned over and dismounted and led the horse to approach.

The samurai Qingyuan immediately shouted: "Who is not allowed to get close to you!"

The visitor was naturally Zhou Xuan and Zhou Qicha, and asked with a smile: "Who is General Xiahou? I want to see him."

When Pan Yujiao saw that it was Zhou Xuan, he was anxious and shouted: "Zhou - why are you here!"

Xiahou Yun shouted to his subordinates: "Around her, don't let her run away!" He came over with a spear, looked at Zhou Xuan, but didn't know him, and asked roughly: "Who are you? What's wrong with me? By the way, you are from Pan Yujiao and his gang. Catch it, get it."

Zhou Xuan hurriedly said, "General Xiahou, I am your junior, please accept the next bow." After bowing to the ground, the son-in-law met his father-in-law for the first time, and the etiquette must not be lost. But why does this father-in-law look like a black Zhang Fei? It is hard to believe that Liusu would be his daughter!

Li Duo people didn't blame him. Xiahou Yun stopped the two Qingyuan warriors who were about to rush up and asked, "Who are you? I don't know you."

Zhou Xuan said: "In the Xia family, Zhou, a native of Xuanzhou, he was a friend of the poems and lyrics of Prince Lianchang, and often sings poems, wine and music."

"Oh?" Xiahou Yun knew that Lan Lianchang had been in Xuanzhou for several years and made friends with a few friends who recited poems and wrote lyrics. He asked, "Why are you here?"

Zhou Xuan did not answer, but asked, "I don't know where Miss Ling Ai Liusu is now?" To save Pan Yujiao, Liusu needs to help.

Xiahou Yun pointed to the east with his spear: "Listen, the sound of the hoof is my female Liusu - Hey, what are you asking about this?" His tone became violent.

Xiahou Yun knew that Lan Lianchang brought Xiahou Liusu to Xuanzhou and was living in a brothel. Although he said that he was selling his skills but not selling himself, it was not good to spread it no matter how he spread it. The boy with thick eyebrows and thin eyes in front of him asked Liusu, could he have been to the brothel where Liusu lived, and wow, then he had to kill and kill someone to silence him!

Zhou Xuan heard Liusu say that her father had a hot temper and quickly said, "I am a talented man in Xuanzhou. Liusu loves my poems. He has only met several times after being recommended by Master Lianchang."

Xiahou Yun put his spear on the ground, scratched his scalp and said, "Wait, let me think about it-"
