Chapter 1021 There Is Something Special in This Place

"Young Master, there is a boat chasing you."

Cheng Chumo and others had just put away their weapons, and before they had time to take a breath, they heard Shopkeeper Liu and Zhao Chen shouting outside the cabin.

"Zhao Da, have we been discovered?" Cheng Chumo and Zhao Chen asked.

"No, if it was discovered, the ship would not have been allowed to leave just now."

"I think it must be someone sent by Wei Ting to support."

"Shopkeeper Liu, keep moving the ship, we'll take care of the rest." Zhao Chen opened the warehouse board and waved to the people behind him.

Looking up at the water behind him, he saw two small boats paddling towards this side. .??.

There were only a dozen or so people on board.

"Stop, stop the boat, do you hear me!" Wei Ting's cronies were furious when they saw that the merchant ship in front of them not only did not stop, but continued to move forward.

The sword on his waist has been drawn out and held in his hand.

"Pull quickly, our boat is small and we can easily catch up with them." The henchman shouted to the soldiers on the boat.

At this moment, the confidants were also a little worried.

If Zhao Chen and his group were really hiding on this boat, how could he be his opponent with only a dozen of them?

Looking behind him again, General Chen at the checkpoint clearly had no intention of leading troops to support him.

"Made!" The confidant cursed, and as he saw his ship getting closer to the merchant ship in front, he began to feel uneasy.

In just half a cup of tea, the cronies' ships were blocked in front of the merchant ship.

The merchant ship stopped, and Shopkeeper Liu stood on the bow with a slightly worried look on his face.

Although he had never seen Wei Ting's cronies in front of him, he was chasing after him at this moment, and he was definitely trying to capture the people he had hidden.

"Sir... Sir!" Shopkeeper Liu and Wei Ting's cronies handed over their hands.

"Search……"

"Kill." The cronies only said one word when they wanted to search the merchant ship.

Then I saw a group of people suddenly jumping out in front of me.

Before he could react, the leader, a big man with a black beard, rushed in front of him.

As the silver light waved, the henchman felt a pain in his neck.

Then the whole world was dark.

…

"What?"

"Killed on board?"

In Yingzhou Governor's Mansion, it was already the second day that Wei Ting received the news that his cronies had been killed.

At this moment, Wei Ting looked gloomy and his whole body was trembling.

He didn't expect that he had surrounded almost all the roads leading to the outside world in Yingzhou City.

Even if a fly flies by, you can tell whether it is a male or a female.

But now, his subordinates actually told him that the body of his confidant had been dumped in the river.

If the common people who went fishing in the river in the morning had not seen the corpse of his confidant, he would still be kept in the dark at this moment.

"According to the guard at Shuili Checkpoint, a merchant ship passed through the checkpoint yesterday, and a close confidant insisted on stopping it."

"That's why..."

"That's because he found something wrong with the ship." Wei Ting was furious.

The cronies were killed, and Zhao Chen and others had apparently left Yingzhou territory.

Maybe we have arrived at Lujiang at this moment.

Wei Ting, what else can he do now?

Once Zhao Chen meets the emperor and Li Yuan tells his story, Wei Ting will be dead.

No, absolutely not!

Wei Ting thought to himself.

"Assemble all the officers and soldiers of Zhechong Prefecture, and I will personally lead the army to Lujiang to capture the bandit Zhao Chen." Wei Ting and his men ordered, with sharp eyes.

…

"Young Master, I can only send you here. You will have to walk the rest of the way on your own."

"However, I still want to interject, Wei Ting, the governor of Yingzhou, is not a simple person. It is better for the young master to be careful if he kills their people."

At Lujiang Port, Zhao Chen and others got off the ship. Shopkeeper Liu stood on the deck and reminded Zhao Chen.

"Thank you so much, shopkeeper Liu. If you go to Chang'an in the future, you must let Huang Zhi take care of you."

Come and have a drink. "Zhao Chen nodded and cupped hands with Shopkeeper Liu.

If it weren't for his help this time, he wouldn't have left Yingzhou so easily.

"Absolutely, farewell." Shopkeeper Liu smiled and said goodbye.

After loosening the rope and weighing the anchor, the merchant ship followed the river and headed south.

"Zhao Da, what should we do now?" Qin Huaiyu and Zhao Chen asked.

Everyone of them knew that Wei Ting would never give up so easily.

People like him will threaten Wei Ting's life at any time. Will Wei Ting try his best to get rid of people like him?

"Wei Ting will personally bring people to Lujiang soon to encircle and suppress us."

"What we should do now is to take His Majesty the Emperor away from Lujiang." Zhao Chen said slowly.

By killing those officers and soldiers, Wei Ting would definitely know that they had arrived at Lujiang.

Wei Ting was even more aware of the emperor's movements.

Because Wei Ting knew that Li Yuanji was in Lujiang, the emperor would definitely stay in Lujiang for a while.

"Take His Majesty away from Lujiang, Zhao Da, what do you mean..." A trace of panic flashed across Cheng Chumo's face.

He suddenly understood what Zhao Chen meant by what he just said.

But does Wei Ting really dare to do that?

"Wei Ting dared to collude with the bandits in Tianzhu Mountain for ten years. What else can't he do?"

"Go directly to the village ten miles east of Lujiang City and find Li Yuanji."

"Just bring him to His Majesty the Emperor." Zhao Chen made a decision.

At this time, they had no time to tell the emperor Li Yuanji's location.

The emperor wanted to see Li Yuanji, so they brought Li Yuanji to the emperor.

In this way, it would be much easier.

"Pack up and let's go!" Zhao Chen waved to everyone.

…

"Your Majesty, the small village ahead is the one the servant of Lujiang County Prince's Palace mentioned."

"You said this small village doesn't look like it

What's so special, why..." Wei Zheng looked at the dilapidated small village in front of him, seeming a little hard to understand.

This village didn't look like anything special, so why did Li Chengqian not return to his house for several days in a row.

Although Li Chengqian said that he had been deposed as prince, local officials did not dare to have much interaction with him.

But no one would be crazy enough to dare to attack Li Chengqian.

After all, in the eyes of others, Li Chengqian was the emperor's son.

"Maybe there is a cave inside!" The emperor smiled.

At this moment, he was extremely curious.

The servant of the Lujiang County Prince's Mansion said that Li Chengqian was out for a visit, but in such a dilapidated small village, who else was worthy of Li Chengqian's visit?

In the past, Li Chengqian was arrogant and would never come to such a dirty and messy place.

"Let's look forward." The emperor smiled and continued walking forward.

Wei Zheng wanted to remind the emperor to be careful, but before he could speak, the emperor had disappeared around the corner in front.

Wei Zheng chased after him and passed the corner. In front of him was a neat path, with a house at the end of the path.

There are also low small houses on both sides of the path.

There was a naughty boy running on the roadside, and behind him a mother was chasing the naughty boy with a broom.

There was an old man sitting on the stone by the roadside, smiling and nodding with the emperor.

"Shopkeeper, there is a hidden secret here." Wei Zheng looked at the emperor and said slowly.

"Old man, where did you get this?" The emperor did not answer Wei Zheng, but pointed to a chair behind the old man in front of him.

If the emperor remembered correctly, he seemed to have only seen this style of chair in Zhao Chen's mansion.

"You said this, our village chief brought it back from Chang'an."

"It was said that it was given to him by a nobleman from Chang'an."

"The village chief sighed that I was old, so he gave it to me." The old man explained with a smile.

But he grabbed the chair in his hands, obviously it was a very precious thing.
