Chapter 439: What's For Lunch?
King Qi was tied up by Wuhuada and sent to the cottage.
This is the result that King Qi never imagined.
Because he felt that there were only one or two hundred people on this mountain, and they were a hundred well-trained imperial troops in armor and crossbows, wouldn't that be easy to capture?
In the end, he thought wrong, the mountain road was too narrow to ride a horse, so he had to walk, and only one or two people could pass at a time.
Stepped into the pit and was rescued by the forbidden army beside him. Not to mention, just walking up a narrow mountain road, a huge boulder fell down, dividing the army entering the mountain into two sections.
Then another big net was lowered from the sky, enclosing him and the three guards around him.
Coupled with the fact that the bandits were condescending and threw rolling stones and cold arrows down the mountain, the Forbidden Army behind had no choice but to retreat.
If you don't occupy the sky, you lose the right place and the harmony of people.
That's what caused this failure.
King Qi regretted it very much at this time. He knew that the moment his body fell into a pit, he would have listened to the words of the captain next to him, so he quickly retreated. When will he be gone soon?
It's a pity that at that time he was self-willed, and he turned a deaf ear to the saying that the forbidden army said that the mountains are high and the roads are narrow, and that it is easy to have ambushes. The scene of being captured by a thief.
If there is a next time, he swears that he will never make such a mistake again. Next time, he will definitely walk at the back and let the imperial guards stand in front. If it is really dangerous, he will slip away quickly...cough cough, retreat quickly.
King Qi was dressed in a silk and satin costume, he looked like a pampered and wealthy son, but the rope tied to his body now was a bit miserable.
King Qi was escorted by two young men to the Xiaojuyi Hall. Only the head of the largest cottage was called the Juyi Hall, and all the other hilltops were called the Xiaojuyi Hall.
Struggling constantly, he shouted: "You group of rebellious ministers and thieves, do you know who this king is?!"
The two young men were stunned when they heard his shout: "Are you a prince?"
King Qi was stunned for a moment, still thinking how did they know?
At this moment, a black-faced man with not too much hair but an unshaven beard came over and looked at King Qi and asked: "You are the one who wants to bring the army into the mountains with the intention of destroying us?!"
King Qi looked at the unshaven black-faced man, and said very stubbornly: "This king tells you, if you are sensible, release this king quickly. If the army in the city gets the news that this king has been captured by you, they will definitely send troops immediately to wipe you out." This small cottage!"
Toyosu Castle
In the station
Xu Qing and Xiao Ye finished reading the report on the table together: "King Qi has been arrested?"
Xiao Ye nodded: "Yes, is it time for dinner?"
Xu Qing calculated the time: "It's time for lunch."
Xiao Ye asked, "What's for lunch?"
Xu Qing said: "I heard that there is a dish of assorted chicken in Fengzhou that is very good, why don't you try it together?"
Xiao Ye stood up and said with anticipation: "Hurry up, brother Xu, I have long wanted to change the taste of those dishes in the capital."
Xu Qing went out the door and saw Long Binger walking towards her.
Long Bing'er looked at Xu Qing and asked, "Have your people been captured by bandits?"
Xu Qing nodded: "King Qi has been arrested, do you want to eat assorted chicken? Brother Xiao treats you."
Xiao Ye turned to look at Xu Qing, with some doubts: "Ah? Did I invite you?"
Looking at the two who were discussing what to have for lunch, Long Bing'er said in disbelief, "The prince has been arrested, what chicken do you still have in mind to eat?"
Xu Qing said, "Do you know that if a worker wants to do a good job, he must first sharpen his weapon?"
Long Binger nodded and said: "I know, but what does this have to do with you guys eating assorted chicken?"
Xu Qing said: "How can I save people if I don't eat enough?"
Long Binger asked curiously: "Aren't you afraid that the bandits will kill that prince if you go late?"
Xu Qing spread his hands and said: "If they really want to kill them, it's too late for us to go there now. If they plan to be hostages, can't we rescue them at any time? If this is the case, what difference does it make if we go early and go late?"
Long Bing'er said: "Then I'm going to eat assorted chicken too."
afternoon
Among the cottages
The bald-headed master heard that the black-faced man had arrested a prince and led his men down from Mount Funiu himself.
The boy imprisoned in this small hill is a big fat sheep, and the officers and soldiers must come to rescue him.
With such a person in their hands, even if the officers and soldiers sent troops up the mountain, they would definitely not dare to act rashly!
This thing is now the only capital in their copycat's hands to negotiate with the officers and soldiers!
But the thieves in the entire cottage continued until the afternoon, waiting for the left and not coming, and waiting for the right and not coming.
The bald headed man was getting a little impatient, he looked at the black-faced man: "Didn't you say that the officers and soldiers would definitely come?"
The black-faced man hurriedly shook his head and said, "Dage, I didn't say that!"
The bald headed master asked puzzledly, "You didn't say that? Who said that?"
The black-faced man said: "Yes...it was said by the guy who claimed to be the king. He said that as soon as the officers and soldiers got the news that he was arrested, they would immediately send troops up the mountain."
The bald man: "Do you think it will take three hours to get here from Zhoucheng?"
The black-faced man: "..."
From here to Zhoucheng, three hours are enough for two round trips...
Now he wondered if he had been deceived by that guy, the one who claimed to be the king, was he really a prince?
Is he really important to Guan Jun?
Why have they been on guard for a whole day, and haven't even seen an officer?
King Qi was imprisoned in a thatched hut
There are two bandits guarding the outside.
Li Si looked at Ma Liu who came out of the thatched hut and asked, "Didn't he bark very urgently just now? Why is he silent now?"
In the past few months when Li Si was a bandit, it was the first time he saw such a rambunctious prisoner shouting non-stop, but the head of the family had told him that this kid was not of ordinary status, and he might be a prince if he did so, such a big bargaining chip could not be killed casually , really a headache.
Ma Liu waved his hand: "Two punches, much more honest."
Li Si asked: "It's okay to be in charge just now. This kid may be a prince. The army at the foot of the mountain may send troops up the mountain at any time. If you give him two punches like this, you won't be afraid of death then?"
Ma Liu said stiffly: "What's the matter with the prince? The prince and general Xiang Ning... Ning... Ning, what is it?"
Li Sidao: "It's better to be kind."
Ma Liu nodded, and then said: "Yes, the prince and the general are kind! Daddy would risk his life if he became a bandit, and he would die anyway. Anyway, I can eat enough for the whole family by myself, and I will die." What else is there to be afraid of?"
Li Si thought for a while and said: "Although I said so, after being captured by the officers and soldiers, there is still a difference between decapitation and Ling Chi."
Ma Liu froze immediately, and looked at Li Si: "Then is it too late for me to go in and say sorry to him?"
