Chapter 794 Escape

Two ships, sailing in tandem.

The Seventh Prince brought Hu Da and three attendants to escort Murong Jie, followed by four people, starting the day without any surprise or danger.

The boatman is hired, so the food on the boat is also the boatman.

The boatman was a solid man, about thirty years old, and he was an honest person. Seeing the weird atmosphere on the boat, he didn't dare to talk too much. He just sailed the boat when he sailed and cooked when he was cooking.

To go down the river, you have to go on land for a while, and then make a detour to take a boat down the Xijiang River.

Therefore, this period was only a two-day boat trip, and because they were all safe and sound, the Seventh Prince relaxed his vigilance towards Murong Jie.

After landing on the shore, he also made a special trip to find a doctor for Murong Jie and prescribed some wound medicine.

When Murong Jie was on the boat, he suffered repeated injuries. During the period, he even had a high fever, which was caused by the infection of the wound.

He kept adding small wounds to Murong Jie, but he also treated his sword wounds and arrow wounds, lest he die on the way.

After prescribing the medicine, he got into the carriage and continued walking.

The Seventh Prince didn't rush at all, and walked slowly on the road. For him, it was better to arrive later than earlier.

His thinking was the same as King Nanhuai's, and he had to wait for those who chased him to the southern country to disperse first.

He wasn't going to bump into it foolishly.

The Communist Party only has this little manpower, even though they control Murong Jie, they can't take these risks.

Murong Jie's injuries were gradually healed, although he still couldn't move freely, but he was much better than before.

He reckoned that if he insisted on it for about a day, all the poison would be removed.

Therefore, he has been persevering, no matter how ugly Hu Da said, he will not lose his temper.

This night, stay overnight in Zhaozhou.

Zhaozhou is a well-developed area, with a very prosperous economy due to the accessibility of water and land.

As before, they found a relatively remote inn, about three miles away from the bustling street.

Xiao Er Zhang brought up the food, Hu Da rewarded him with a few pennies, and then asked, "Xiao Er, is this boat easy to hire?"

Tomorrow, we will continue to take the waterway, because the previous arrangements were not so comprehensive, so we did not hire a boat here in advance.

Xiao Er smiled and said: "Guest officer, there are still no boats to hire in Zhaozhou? I can hire any boat you want, as long as you have enough money."

"Okay, you can hire two boats for me tomorrow," Hu Da said.

"Okay!" Xiaoer said happily, there is a reward for running errands for customers, he wished to run a few more times.

The Seventh Prince frowned, "It's enough to hire a bigger one, which can accommodate about ten people."

Xiaoer replied: "Young master, you can do whatever you want, not to mention a dozen people, there are also boats with a hundred people."

The Seventh Prince winked at Hu Da, Hu Da agreed, and pulled Xiao Er out of the door, "Brother Xiao Er, I want to ask you something, do you have any guests from the capital recently?"

"From the capital?" The second brother smiled and said, "Of course, there are guests from the capital every day."

"Then have you ever seen this person?" Hu Da took out a scroll from the bag, opened it and showed it to Xiao Er.

Xiao Er took a look, and said quickly: "Yes, I have seen, this lady is very handsome, I remember it clearly, she just left yesterday."

"Are you sure?" Hu's eyes narrowed.

"Of course I'm sure. Although we have a lot of customers here, it's the first time I've seen such a beautiful lady. She came with her, and there was a girl in green clothes and seven or eight men."

"What kind of attire are they all in?" Hu Da pulled him away.

Murong Jie was in the room with his head down, as if he didn't hear anything outside.

Indeed, if it wasn't for his strong hearing, he would definitely not be able to hear, at least, the Seventh Prince and several other entourages would not be able to hear.

Murong Jie knew that Hu Da was inquiring about Zian's whereabouts, because he had accidentally glimpsed the picture scroll in Hu Da's luggage, and it was Zian.

According to their way of doing things, if they only control themselves, they will not be at ease, but if they can hold themselves in their hands, they will not be afraid of his refusal.

If it is said that Zian just left yesterday, it proves that his deduction is correct, and Lao Ba also went to the southern country by water.

According to the footsteps, there are still seven or eight days away from the southern country, which is more than half of the journey by land.

Lao Ba must be going slowly, so if they hurry up, maybe they will be able to catch up the day after tomorrow, and if he can escape, it will be faster.

Tonight, there must be no moths, because after tonight, the poison should be detoxified.

However, after dinner, the Seventh Prince came in with a bowl of water and said with a smile, "Uncle Emperor, it's time to drink some medicine."

It wasn't long before Murong Jie drank the medicine, so this is definitely not a medicine to treat his injuries.

He glanced at the transparent and colorless water, medicine? Probably poison.

The Seventh Prince smiled and said: "My nephew knows that the emperor's uncle has high internal strength, and the poison that was given before may be able to cure some of it. To be on the safe side, I asked the emperor to drink some more. Don't worry, my nephew has the right amount and will not hurt the emperor. life."

Murong Jie took it over, raised his inner strength and rushed for a while, but there were still some obstacles.

However, if the medicine is not heavy, you can drink it first and force it out with internal force after a quarter of an hour, then there should be no problem.

Thinking of this, he smiled indifferently, "Since you are worried, then I will drink again."

"Uncle Huang is so good, so you don't have to suffer." The seventh prince played with the dagger in his hand and smiled innocently.

Murong Jie was really annoyed by his tone of voice, but for now, he could only endure it.

He drank it in one gulp, and then injected it with internal force to prevent the poison from flowing.

"You go out, the king is going to rest." Murong Jie handed him the bowl and said coldly.

The Seventh Prince smiled and said: "Okay, it won't hinder the emperor's uncle from resting."

He took the bowl and went out, closing the door behind him.

Murong Jie heard him order the people outside the door, "It's good to keep an eye on it."

"yes!"

There were at least three people who responded outside the door.

Murong Jie crossed his legs and slowly closed his eyes.

The Seventh Prince's room is right next to Murong Jie's, the sound insulation is not good, and he can hear him talking to Hu Da, but the content of the speech is a little vague.

Murong Jie didn't listen carefully to what they said, and only cared about his luck to detoxify.

The injury was always a hindrance. With luck, the wound almost burst open. He didn't dare to be impatient. He first induced vomiting to spit out the poison he drank before, and slowly forced out the rest with internal force.

Someone was guarding the Seventh Prince's room, and the weather was a bit chilly. After several days of traveling, the accompanying attendants were also a little tired, so they put their hands on their hands and took a nap.

Suddenly, a gust of wind blew in through the window and blew out the tung oil lamp. The attendant woke up vigilantly, and saw darkness before his eyes and pain in his head, and he fell to the ground with a muffled sound.

The Seventh Prince woke up suddenly. When he opened his eyes, he saw a wicked smiling face swaying above his head. He was startled, and opened his mouth to breathe out, but his fists came coldly. He tilted his head and passed out.

When he woke up, he was already in the Yamen Prison in Zhaozhou.

He was sent by shopkeeper Sun, a wealthy family in Zhaozhou, saying that these thieves entered his house to steal things, and were knocked unconscious on the ground by passing knights. On their bodies, the stolen silver and money were found. jewelry.

One of them also appeared on the bed of the concubine of the rich family, with disheveled clothes, sleeping soundly.

Moreover, all of these people had their tongues picked out, that is to say, they were unable to speak.
