Chapter 108: Night Escape
"There is another thing... about Jinyang City..."
When Su Cheng thought of what Yang Xu said to him a few days ago, his face became serious and immediately colluded with the King of Qin for the inspector Zhou Chengde of Jinyang City to collude with Hu.
Later, he presented the evidence that Yang Xu gave to him about the Zhou family colluding with the Hu people to the King of Qin.
These evidences include confessions written by Hu spies and concealed by them, as well as confessions from Zhou Chengde and his son, which are enough to confirm the fact that the Zhou family colluded with Hu people.
"Zhou Chengde deserves to die for his crime!"
After reading the evidence, the King of Qin was furious. The one he hated the most in his life was the spy who sold the country and sought honor.
"If this matter is done well, it will be successful for the country to make contributions! At that time, the weight of the King of Qin in His Majesty's heart will also increase a lot!"
Su Cheng smiled and said to King Qin.
The King of Qin nodded, thought for a moment, and said to Su Cheng: "Tell Yang Xu that if this matter is done, I will remember him for his achievements!"
Su Cheng smiled and said, "Yang Xu said, he doesn't need to make a contribution, as long as he can take up a little more share in future business."
The King of Qin laughed and said, "This guy is just a financial fan! You reply to him, no matter what business he does in the future, as long as he does not violate the law of our Zhao Kingdom, I can do no share and will definitely support it with all my strength!"
※※※
As night comes, everything is silent.
Someone opened a door to the north gate of Jinyang City.
The next moment, a convoy of seven or eight carriages and more than twenty fully armed cavalry drove out of the door and then rushed towards Hu Guo.
The more than 20 cavalrymen were Zhou Chengde's confidant guards.
On those carriages were more than 20 people from the entire Zhou Chengde clan and the money they had plundered over the years.
Since Yang Xu went to the imperial capital to open a restaurant, Zhou Chengde's eyes and ears have been paying attention to it secretly.
After learning that Yang Xu was in a prosperous state in the imperial capital, Zhou Chengde couldn't sleep or eat, and felt that the Zhou family might be abandoned by Yang Xu at any time.
Zhou Chengde understood that once Yang Xu made the evidence of the Zhou family colluding with the Hu people publicly, what was waiting for the Zhou family would be the crime of raiding the family.
Zhou Chengde was naturally unwilling to die. During these days, the father and son had been conspiring to escape.
As long as they can escape to Hu, their personal safety will be worry-free. Even if they cannot be valued by the Hu court, they can still use the money they bring to live a wealthy family.
Today night, the Zhou family finally found a suitable opportunity and arranged for the confidants to open the city gate and flee with their clans.
From this, we head north, as long as we cross the boundary river between Zhao and Zhao, we enter the territory of Hu and can obtain the protection of Hu.
"Dad, have the Yang Family Restaurant and Yang Family Village arranged it?"
Inside the carriage, Zhou Yi had a ferocious facial features and asked with hatred.
Before today, he was the son of the inspector of Jinyang City and the head of the four great talents in Jinyang City. He has a prominent family background and is quite famous, and is sought after by many people.
However, from today on, he has to escape to Hu and spend his life in that bitter and cold place. In the future, he will face strange faces of alien races.
For him, moving from the rich and romantic Zhao State to the bitter and cold Hu State was like falling from heaven to hell.
And all this was Yang Xu and Yangjiazhai.
Therefore, his hatred for Yang Xu and Yangjiazhai is to the core.
Now that Yang Xu is not in Jinyang City, their father and son can only transfer their hatred to the Yang Family Restaurant in Jinyang City and the Yang Family Village outside the city.
In order to avenge this great revenge, Zhou Chengde arranged his confidant to spend a lot of money to come from the landlords, preparing to destroy the Yang Family Restaurant and Yang Family Village.
And the day they escape is the time to take action.
"I have asked someone to inform you before we leave Jinyang City. In a moment, the Yang Family Restaurant and Yang Family Village will launch!"
Zhou Chengde said in a deep voice, his eyes flashing with ruthlessness.
In Jinyang City, he served as the inspector's history, and was a powerful and powerful person. However, after arriving in Hu, he could no longer provide border affairs for Hu, and he would not be valued by the Hu court. At most, in order not to disappoint him, the Hu court appointed him as a small official without power or power.
So when it comes to his hatred for Yang Xu and Yangjiazhai, he is deeper than his two sons.
"Tonight, I will use the blood of all the villagers in Yangjiazhai to give us a farewell ceremony!"
Zhou Tong clenched his fists and roared.
He, the little overlord of Jinyang City, had to live in the country of Hu, and could only be a turtle with a head-shifting life, so he also hated Yangjiazhai and Yang Xu in his heart.
One hour later, the convoy traveled dozens of miles, not far from the rivers of the two countries.
Zhou Chengde and his son were relieved, knowing that Hu Guo’s side had a boat to pick him up by the river, and as long as they crossed the river, they would be completely safe.
At this moment, the carriage that was moving forward suddenly stopped, and then bursts of screams came.
"What's going on!"
Zhou Chengde frowned and a sense of ominous premonition arose in his heart.
"I'll take a look!"
Zhou Tong lifted the curtain behind the carriage, jumped down, and walked around to the carriage, and the next moment his figure was fixed there.
Zhou Yi then jumped out of the carriage. Within his eyes, he saw that ten feet away in front of him were hundreds of fully armed cavalrymen of Zhao.
Under the moonlight, the swords in the hands of the cavalry of Zhao State reflected a cold light, making people feel scared.
"This...this..."
Zhou Yi's throat was dry and his whole body was trembling. When he looked at his brother Zhou Tong, the two of them looked deep in despair.
Zhou Chengde in the carriage had already felt something was wrong at this time. Before he got off the car, a layer of cold sweat had appeared on his body and could not wipe it clean.
"Zhou Chengde, the fact that your Zhou family colluded with Hu State has been exposed, and you can't surrender quickly!"
Among the hundreds of cavalry opposite, a general drove his horse forward, pointed his spear forward in his hand, and shouted fiercely.
"Sigh... God is going to destroy my Zhou family!"
Zhou Chengde got off the carriage, glanced at the hundreds of Zhao cavalry opposite him, and couldn't help but sigh to the sky.
Suddenly, the guard beside him snatched a knife from his hand and shouted sternly: "It's a death to surrender, it's better to rush over, maybe there's still a way out! Brothers, follow me!"
When he was young, he was also a powerful general in the army, but later he became more and more fat. In addition, he became older and his body was no longer as brave as he used to be.
He rushed several feet away with the knife and was already a little panting, and the trusted guards behind him were all ashamed, and no one followed.
"The mantis arm blocks the chariot, overestimates one's own ability!"
The general of Zhao Guojun looked at Zhou Chengde who was rushing towards him coldly, his eyes full of mockery.
"I've fought with you!"
Zhou Chengde rushed to the army general and slashed with a knife.
"puff!"
The Zhao army general stabbed out like lightning, directly piercing Zhou Chengde's heart.
