He was really unlucky, Huang Tianyan laughed at himself.
Although he complained in his heart, Huang Tianyan did not dare to delay in doing things.
As the dead eunuch said, if the man named Wang is let go, he will really be unable to eat and carry around.
He led the soldiers and quickly rushed outside, only to see Wang Baokun and his party all fleeing. There were still more than 30 soldiers standing there, stunned.
"Keep chasing, don't let them escape!"
After ordering his men, Huang Tianyan immediately asked the soldiers who stayed behind: "Are you Wang Baokun's accomplices?"
These soldiers were all subordinates of the general surnamed Zheng, and they had no idea what Wang Baokun had committed.
"Sir, we don't know anything!" a small flag official replied.
Huang Tianyan immediately said: "Give you a chance to make a difference, leave ten people to guard the food, and everyone else will follow me to hunt down Wang Baokun!"
At this time, Huang Tianyan was undoubtedly a bit alarmist, but only in this way could he scare these soldiers and make them use themselves.
"We'd like to help with the hunt!"
Without too much nonsense, everyone immediately assigned tasks and rushed outside to chase him.
At this moment, Wang Baokun and his party gathered together and fled directly to the northwest. Their purpose was to escape to the river as soon as possible.
As long as they cross the Bahe River, they will be safe for the time being.
Behind them, the nearest soldier was only a hundred meters away from them, which was just enough distance to bite them.
"Catch them, Your Majesty will definitely give you a heavy reward!" Huang Tianyan shouted at the top of his lungs from behind.
"These traitors have betrayed the prince, we must not let them go!"
Chasing back and forth all the way, everyone was running out of breath. At this moment, they had run seven or eight miles, and now they could hear the roar of the Bahe River.
In fact, if you run straight to Bahe, the distance won't be that far at all.
However, in order to avoid the patrols they might encounter along the way, Wang Baokun and his party had no choice but to deviate from the official road, so they took many detours.
"Hurry, we're almost there... Let's run a few more steps!" Wang Baokun said loudly.
He was upgraded by Zhao Yanxun, so his physical strength was stronger than that of ordinary soldiers. Only now did he have the time to encourage his subordinates.
At this moment, a series of horse hoofbeats sounded behind them, and Wang Baokun knew that something was wrong.
At this time, he didn't care about his subordinates, but speeded up and ran towards the Bahe River.
Also after hearing the sound of horse hooves, the other fleeing soldiers also fled towards the river as fast as possible.
They were afraid of being caught and being tried when they went back, so they unleashed their potential.
Those who can ride horses are naturally the palace guards. Obviously this matter has alarmed the palace.
Horses are much faster than people, so when the guards arrived, only Wang Baokun jumped into the river.
All other soldiers were stopped, including Li Lin.
The person leading the pursuit was a small flag officer, who shouted loudly: "If you dare to run away again, you will be shot to death!"
After saying these words, the flag officer leading the team no longer paid attention to what was behind him, but rushed straight to the river.
I saw him setting up his bow and arrow, aiming at Wang Baokun and yelling: "My surname is Wang, the prince asked me to take you back. No matter life or death, if you dare to run away again, I will shoot you to death with one arrow!"
Upon hearing this, Wang Baokun, who had already jumped into the river, swam faster.
With just a "swish" sound, junior Wang Baokun was hit by an arrow.
The distance between the two is only two or three feet. To shoot a person with limited mobility at this distance is not particularly difficult.
The effect of this arrow was obvious. Wang Baokun's swimming speed suddenly slowed down, but he was still swimming forward.
"court death……"
Immediately afterwards, the second arrow roared out and pierced Wang Baokun's back again.
"Come on, two people, go and catch this guy!"
Soon, two guards entered the river, quickly controlled Wang Baokun, and then dragged him ashore.
All of Wang Baokun's subordinates were also controlled in place at this moment. They all put down their weapons and squatted on the ground, taking off their armor as ordered.
At this moment, the flag officer Li Lin shouted loudly: "Sir, we are all being coerced, Wang Baokun is behind everything!"
"He...lost the food, and it has nothing to do with us!"
"If you don't believe it, ask your brothers...Brothers, you can just talk!"
"Yes, sir, we were coerced by Mr. Wang Qi, please be aware..."
Now that they have been captured, the first thing they think of is to take all the blame.
Now that Wang Baokun is being arrested, he is the eldest official in the group, so it is undoubtedly most appropriate for him to take responsibility.
"Li...Li Lin, you bastards..." Wang Baokun struggled and roared.
"Stop their mouths!" the guard leading the team ordered with a small flag.
With the last burst of noise, the scene suddenly became quiet, leaving only the horses sneezing from time to time.
It was at this time that Huang Tianyan and his party also chased after them, and they were panting from exhaustion.
Seeing that the man had been captured, Huang Tianyan felt relieved.
"Brother, how about I take Wang Baokun back to the palace, and you can escort the others back?" the guard Xiaoqi asked.
Wang Baokun is the main person responsible, so to take him back, he must be brought back for trial first. His Highness King Yong cannot be kept waiting for too long.
"Okay!" Huang Tianyan replied simply.
So Wang Baokun was taken along and quickly returned to Yuanyang Fucheng, while Huang Tianyan ordered his men to take over the remaining people.
"Tie them tight!"
Panting, Huang Tianyan was holding back his anger.
If it weren't for this group of people, he would have been threatened by the eunuch, which made him nervous just now, fearing that he would be punished for letting people go.
"Mr. Huang, we were all forced by Wang Baokun. Can you let us go?" Li Lin said urgently, before his mouth could be sealed.
Huang Tianyan was already angry, but when he heard that this man asked him to let him go, Huang Tianyan couldn't help but take action.
"Whether you are guilty or not, the prince can decide for himself!"
After saying this, Huang Tianyan slapped Li Lin twice, and then scolded: "You bastard, you are looking for death... and you want to harm my brothers!"
The other soldiers also glared angrily, feeling the same as Huang Tianyan.
"Bring people back!"
Immediately afterwards, their group began to return, walking at a much slower pace than the horses.
Twenty minutes later, Huang Tianyan and his party returned to the city gate. The team that transported food just now was still there, including the general bannerman named Zheng.
About twenty of his soldiers were taken away by Huang Tianyan. General Zheng was waiting for his men to return.
At this moment, Wang Shan, who was on duty at the east gate, was also there. Seeing Huang Tianyan bring the people back, he felt relieved.
"Zheng Zongqi, take your people on the road. Be careful and don't be like Wang Baokun!" Wang Shan said slowly.
"Yes... please bear in mind your humble position!" Zheng Yanping nodded.
After this incident, he will never change shifts with others again. He only feels at ease when things have to be done by himself.
Zheng Yanping escorted the grain away, and Wang Shan immediately ordered Huang Tianyan to set off and escort Li Lin and others to the palace.
