Chapter 10 Chapter Ten: The Savior
When Xiang Shaolong came to Ji Yanran's Yahu Xiaozhu, there were more than a dozen gorgeous carriages parked in front of the gate, which was even more grand than the battle this afternoon.
He reported his name to the doorman, and one of the maidservants he met this morning came out to welcome him, leading him around the building where he saw Ji Yanran this afternoon, leading the way with a lantern, passing through a forest path, his eyes lit up, A large one-story house with colorful lights hung in front of the eaves appeared in front of me, and voices could be heard.
Xiang Shaolong couldn't help asking the maidservant, "Who are there guests tonight?"
The maidservant replied indifferently: Tonight is the honored guest specially invited by Miss. Besides the three Mr. Han Fei, Zou Yan and Xiao Wei Mou whom Mr. Xiang met today, there are also Mr. Longyang, Dr. Xu Jie and General Bai Gui. .
Xiang Shaolong took a deep breath, Ji Yanran's face is really big, Bai Gui is the one Mrs. Ping Yuan wants to remarry, so it is no small matter, and Long Yang Jun is a big celebrity next to the King of Wei, and he should also come to attend by appointment Yes, it can be seen how lofty her status in Wei State is.Although I don't know who Xu Jie is, he is definitely not an unknown person.
Xuan is also strange, Mr. Longyang should not be interested in women, he came here not because of Ji Yanran's beauty, but why?Could it be that he wanted to humiliate himself and vent his anger.When it comes to knowledge, I can't catch up with these learned people by flattering myself, so if I ask him to speak, I will immediately make a fool of myself on the spot, and I can't help but feel nervous.
Stepping into the hall, I saw a banquet table was set up, and all the people mentioned by the maid were present, leaning on the cushions, sitting comfortably around the table on the floor mat.
The other two maidservants greeted him and took off his coat and boots for him. Fortunately, it was cold winter, covered by thick cotton clothes, unless he reached out and touched, he would not find the equipment inside his clothes.There was a fire pit in the room, and it was as warm as spring.
Long Yangjun was still as charming as ever, and even introduced other people to him on his own initiative.
Bai Gui was the oldest, probably no less than fifty years old, but he was very strong, with shining eyes, giving the impression of shrewdness.And to Xiang Shaolong's arrogant demeanor, he only greeted him coldly, then whispered privately to Xu Jie, a doctor who looked like a typical Confucian scholar beside him.Xiang Shaolong's seat was set between Han Fei and Zou Yan, the seat next to Han Fei was still vacant, obviously it was Ji Yanran's main seat, followed by Longyang Jun, Bai Gui, Xu Jie and Xiao Wei Mou.
Seeing that he didn't have to face Xiao Wei Mou face to face, Xiang Shaolong felt a little better.
Zou Yan was quite indifferent to Xiang Shaolong, he said hello briefly, and talked to Xiao Wei Mou, who was also from Qi, and ignored Xiang Shaolong.On the contrary, it was Han Fei who had a good impression of Xiang Shaolong because of his righteous words this afternoon. Although he was clumsy in words, Xiang Shaolong still found some warmth in this icy world.
Ji Yanran finally appeared, dressed in snow-white robes, and her gorgeous face immediately attracted everyone's attention, Longyang Jun was no exception, he was stunned, Xiao Wei Mou almost salivated, Han Fei blushed, anyway They have different expressions, but they are all attracted by her.
Ji Yanran looked around the crowd with a smile, her black and white eyes were clear and hazy everywhere, even Xiang Shaolong felt ecstasy, and her body smelled of the after-bath fragrance, which was even more intriguing.Sitting down, he said with a smile: "First punish Mr. Xiang for a drink. How can you leave before the end of the meal during the day?"
Everyone immediately booed according to her intention.At present, there are maids serving wine and serving food.
Xiang Shaolong happily had a drink with her, and Ji Yanran's soul-stirring pair of Jianshui pupils filled the table, and her witty remarks made all the attendees feel at home, but she seemed to be very fond of Han Fei, Zou Yan and the doctor. Xu Jie paid special attention to them, and showed more hospitality and smiles to them, but he didn't care much about Xiang Shaolong and Xiao Weimou, the big enemies.
In fact, Xiang Shaolong really didn't know anything about the poems and songs of Fengyue they were talking about, and he was powerless to intervene.After eating and drinking, under the strong invitation of everyone, Ji Yanran asked someone to bring a long flute and play a song.
Xiang Shaolong didn't know what tune she was playing, but he only knew that her flute technique was flawless, reaching the pinnacle of perfection, her affection was lingering, and she couldn't help being completely immersed in the world of music like everyone else, listening like a fascination drunk.
After Ji Yanran played the song, everyone sincerely praised her, smiled sweetly, and said to Xiao Wei Mou: Mr Xiao, please forgive Yan Ran for being rude, I dare to ask you a question.
Xiao Wei Mou didn't know if he was infected by the atmosphere of the banquet, or he was deliberately trying to curry favor with Ji Yanran, so he spoke more politely, and said softly: As long as it comes from Miss Yu's mouth, Xiao Mou is of course willing to answer.
Ji Yanran smiled coquettishly and said: The difference between humans and beasts lies in whether they have a sense of shame, what do you think, sir?
Everyone knew that the drama of the dinner had begun, so they stopped eating and listened quietly to the conversation between the two.
Before Xiang Shaolong came, he thought that Ji Yanran would look at him differently, but now he saw that Ji Yanran was becoming more and more indifferent to him, and he was trying to find an excuse so that he could sneak back and steal the "Secret Record", so that Mrs. Ya and the eight maids could I copied it, so I didn't pay much attention to their dialogue.
Xiao Wei Mouxian came prepared, and said with a smile: Miss, I'm afraid I may misunderstand what I mean. I'm not saying that there is no difference between humans and animals, but in some essentials, such as survival and reproduction, there is no difference!Therefore, animals have a lot to learn from us. For example, animals do not lie and deceive people, and are more sincere than us. Therefore, only when people are loyal to their own nature and sincerity can they enjoy life to the fullest.Then he snorted coldly to Xiang Shaolong: "Brother Xiang said this to younger brother, what's your opinion?"
At this moment Xiang Shaolong was thinking of Chu Mo's poison talisman, he was stunned when he heard the words: What?oh!I have no comments below.
Everyone, including Ji Yanran, was stunned and showed contempt.Xiang Shaolong smiled wryly in his heart, he is not an orator, even if he heard his words clearly, he would not be able to argue.Fortunately, he made up his mind not to pursue Ji Yanran, so being embarrassed is no big deal.
Doctor Xu Jie cast a disdainful glance at Xiang Shaolong, and said: What Mr. Xiao said is very wrong, the difference between humans and animals lies in the difference in essence.Human nature is inherently good, so we develop a heart of benevolence; beasts have no mercy in order to feed their hungers, and wantonly eat other animals, so that they will not let go of their own kind.If people are unworthy and go to learn from animals, wouldn't the world be in chaos?
Xiao Wei Mou, the murderous man, who robbed Confucian scholars who advocated Mencius's theory so much, how could he save face, and said coldly: Don't people kill other animals?What is Dr. Xu eating now?
Xu Jie laughed and said: This is the difference between the beasts that eat blood and drink blood.And what we eat is only domesticated poultry. Do animals know how to do this?
Xiao Wei Mou was obviously no match for this person, so he was speechless for a moment.
Xu Jieqi was successful, and he had a lot of face in front of Ji Yanran, pointing the finger at Han Feidao: Mr. Han's masterpiece, Xu Jie has also read it, and his arguments are wonderful, but unfortunately he committed the same problem as his teacher Xun Kuang, believing that human nature is inherently evil, so he doesn't understand It is a pity that the way to influence the people with virtue and rule the country exclusively with the criminal law is to deceive the people and fool the people.
Han Fei was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect Xu Jie to be so rude, he criticized him relentlessly, he was angry in his heart, although he was full of high opinions, the more angry he was, the more he stuttered and couldn't speak.Long Yangjun, Bai Gui, and Zou Yan all sneered, watching his embarrassment.Ji Yanran frowned, not only a little embarrassed for Han Fei, but also impatient with his tongue-tied.
Xiang Shaolong, a bystander, suddenly understood the meaning behind Ji Yanran's evening party, hoping to find a good way to govern the country, so he looked at Han Fei differently, and called important people from the Wei state so that they could accept the new theories and ideas .
Seeing that Han Fei had no ability to argue back, Xu Jie was even more arrogant, and proudly said: As for the young master's denial of the way of the former king, he even forgot his origin, just like building a building, you must first strengthen the foundation, without a foundation, the building cannot withstand the wind and rain , this foundation is exactly the model set by the sages and sages.
These words are aimed at Han Fei's claim that there is no fixed way of governing the country.Han Fei believes that following the old law is like waiting for a rabbit, so we should not stick to the rules, but take corresponding measures according to the real situation of each period.This idea is of course more advanced than Confucianism, which advocates obeying the ancients. I only hate that Han Fei doesn't have that kind of eloquence to say it.
Xiang Shaolong saw that Han Fei's veins were bursting with anger, he couldn't bear it, so he blurted out: Nonsense!
The words came out yelling badly, and sure enough, all eyes were on him. Xu Jie looked at him with disdain and sneered, "In addition to leading troops to fight, Xiang Bingwei also has experience in governing the country. I would like to hear the high-level comments." .
Xiang Shaolong felt that Ji Yanran's burning beautiful eyes were staring at him closely, and thought to himself how he could lose face in front of the beauty, and argued strongly: The times are moving forward, for example, in the past, the battles were dominated by vehicles, but now they are fought on horseback, on foot, and on horseback. The mixed battle of different types of vehicles shows that it is impossible to cling to the things of the past.
Ji Yanran said disappointedly: Mr. Xiang is a bit unclear about Dr. Xu's argument. He is talking about principles, not means, just like war or war, how to fight is another matter.
Longyang Junjiao smiled and said: "Brother Xiang, although your swordsmanship is superb, it seems that you haven't read much. Now we are arguing with Mr. Han about the difference between the rule of virtue and the rule of law!"
Xu Jie said loudly: "Government with virtue, such as Beichen, who lives in his place and is surrounded by stars."After a pause, he read again: "Tao is governed by politics, and justice is punished, and the people are free and shameless."Dao is based on virtue, and harmony is based on propriety. There is shame and integrity.
These few sentences are the famous sayings of Confucius, which means that the way to govern the country must start from the foundation of morality, educate the masses, and make the country peaceful and peaceful.It is completely different from the point of view of the rule of law.
Xiang Shaolong was very annoyed, and thought it would be better to take the opportunity and leave early.What is political virtue, I don't even know what the reason is.Go early and good morning, so as not to make a fool of yourself, stand up and say goodbye.
Everyone was stunned, but they didn't expect this person to back off before officially entering the question.
Ji Yanran said displeasedly: If Mr. Xiang said a few words like in the daytime and then slipped away, Yanran would be very upset.
Lord Longyang hasn't had enough of him yet, how could he be willing to let him go and persuade him to stay.
Xiang Shaolong wondered if Ji Yanran was happy that I care about you. To her anyway, he was just a dispensable companion, and was about to leave without hesitation, when he suddenly noticed that Han Fei was tugging on his sleeve lightly, and felt in his heart A soft sit down.
Ji Yanran said happily: This is what makes you look like a man. Mr. Xiang seems to be deliberately suppressed, and he refuses to express his thoughts. Yanran really wants to hear what you have to say!
Xiang Shaolong smiled wryly in his heart, you, Miss Ji, really flatter me, compared to you, I'm just an idiot, how can I tell you anything.
Xu Jie has the upper hand tonight, An Qing might be favored by a beauty, how could he let go of the opportunity to show off, and said step by step: "Mr. Xiang, do you think the rule of law or the rule of virtue is better?"
Seeing the mocking look in his eyes, Xiang Shaolong felt angry, so he went all out and said: It's not a question of which is better, but a question of whether it works or not.Virtuous government is purely an ideal. Assuming that there are only saints in the world and no villains, then everyone can obey the law without any means.This is obviously not the case, and it will never become a fact, so we need a law and standard that everyone can clearly understand to control everyone and let them abide by it. So much for words.
Everyone was stunned. For people in the 21st century, this is the principle that everyone pursues, but for people of that era, it is more thorough and fresher than Han Feizi's theory of the rule of law.Ji Yanran's pretty eyes lit up, and she looked at Xiang Shaolong carefully again, chewing on his words.Han Fei showed a thoughtful look and nodded unconsciously.Zou Yan fell silent, as if thinking of something.
Of course Xu Jie won't be convinced so easily, but he no longer dared to underestimate his opponent, and said solemnly: If a country is maintained only by punishment, wouldn't it be possible for those in power to use criminal law to oppress the weak at will?
Bai Gui said: "If you give good manners, the people will not dare to be disrespectful; if you give good righteousness, then the people will not dare to disobey; if you give good faith, then the people will not dare to be unkind."This is the way of the king. If you punish yourself, what will happen to the people?Mr. Xiang please advise.
Xiang Shaolong laughed, and after taking a deep look at Ji Yanran, he said to Bai Gui and Xu Jie: This is just putting all the power of governance in the hands of the monarch, and the rule of law is not thorough enough.If everyone is equal before the law, and the Son of Heaven, Hey King, breaks the law and commits the same crime as the common people. For example, anyone who kills without reason will be punished, then who would dare to kill casually?I did not say that benevolence, righteousness and morality should not be used, that is the basic spirit behind any law, and the combination of the rule of law and the rule of virtue is the real way of governing the country.Absolute power can only make people absolutely corrupt.
When he said that the king committed the same crime as the common people, Ji Yanran yelled, and Han Fei's eyes lit up immediately, and everyone else, including Xiao Wei Mou, showed a look of astonishment and astonishment.Especially the last two sentences are like a drum in the evening and a bell in the morning, beating heavily on everyone's heart.For people who lived in the era of supremacy of monarchy, it is indeed a shocking statement.
Xiang Shaolong thought to himself that he had so much information, and if he continued to speak, there would be many mistakes, so he stood up and said: I have already expressed all my humble opinions.Hey!I still have something urgent to do, so farewell!
Ji Yanran frowned and complained: "Sir, when you talk about the wonderful things, are you leaving?"Do you hate Yanran?
Zou Yan forcefully pulled him back to the table, and said with a smile: "Xiang Bingwei has aroused my interest in speaking. Zou wants to ask how this kind of rule of law that thoroughly includes the monarch can work."
Lord Longyang: Brother Xiang's way of governing the country is more ideal than what we call the government of the benevolent!
Xiao Wei Mou sneered and said: "It's even more unrealistic!"
Xiang Shaolong smiled bitterly and said: Yes!It is not feasible now, but it is developing in the direction. One day, there will be a situation of separation of powers among the three powers of legislation, law enforcement and administration.The monarch is elected by the people, only then will there be Hey France!No, true fraternity, equality and liberty.
He almost blurted out the French Revolution, but fortunately he swallowed it quickly.
What he said was even more shocking, and everyone couldn't digest it for a while. For people who have lived in the centralized monarchy for a long time, this is such an unacceptable idea, and it is very exciting and fresh.
Xiang Shaolong saw that everyone was frowning, thinking that if he didn't leave now, when would he wait, he got up from his seat, and immediately moved away from the seat, saluting: "You guys are talking nonsense, everyone, please don't take it to heart."Turned around and left, Ji Yanran ignored him calling him.
When Xiang Shaolong returned to Lord Xinling's mansion, he still seemed to hear Ji Yanran's call.Every guest who visited her tried every means to stay and not leave, but he was just the opposite, as if he was afraid of being pestered by her.However, this woman has a unique style. When I first heard her name, I thought she was the sentimental Lin Daiyu type, or a peerless beauty who refused to be proud of herself thousands of miles away.After meeting, I realized that she is actually full of passion for life, constantly seeking the truth, eager for insightful people to find a good way to govern the country, and even really looking for the perfect husband-in-law in her mind.
But it definitely can't be him, Xiang Shaolong.Now he has neither the time nor the fit to have sex with any woman.He has to devote all his energy to protecting and saving Mrs. Ya and Zhao Qian's servant girl and others, that is his unshirkable responsibility.If he is distracted by other beauties and causes hatred, he will regret it for the rest of his life.Although he is romantic, he has a strong sense of responsibility and clear principles of doing things.
Borrowing the lights from the mansion, he made a big circle and used tools to climb up the steep back hill behind Lord Xinling's mansion, then easily sneaked into the mansion, and came to the top of a tree next to a building as quickly as a civet cat.This is within the inner house of Lord Xinling's mansion, and it is heavily guarded. From time to time, guards of vicious dogs can be seen patrolling in groups. Fortunately, he was sprinkled with the medicinal powder brought by Mrs. Ya, otherwise he would have been unable to hide from the sensitive noses of these animals. .
It was near the end of Haishi, that is, at about eleven o'clock in the evening, there were still lights coming out of the small building, and it was unknown who hadn't fallen asleep yet.According to Mrs. Ya, this should be the place where Mr. Xinling's family lived, if there were people downstairs, it would be very difficult for him to enter the secret passage quietly.After waiting for more than half an hour full of anxiety, he finally couldn't bear his temper and decided to take a risk, because copying takes time and it is impossible to wait any longer.
He raised the treasure in his hand, turned off the engine, and the hook flew through the air, across a space of three feet, landed lightly on the ridge of the roof, and was fastened there.Then it slid away like a bird, and came to the eaves without a sound.Spotting where he was going, he turned to the balcony on the second floor under the roof tiles and was surrounded by railings, hid himself from the window, and looked into the building.The first sight is a luxuriously furnished room, in addition to the low couch with hanging curtains, there are bronze dressing mirrors and other things from the daughter's boudoir.
Xiang Shaolong thought to himself that since this is the entrance to the secret passage, the people who live here are people trusted by Lord Xinling, maybe his sweet wife and concubines, if Lord Xinling wants someone to sleep with him, he can call the women here , without coming here from afar, could it be that his wives and concubines are stealing men?I had no time to think about it, when I was about to turn to the lower floor, a voice came from below, and a group of guards came downstairs, stopped and spoke in a low voice.
Xiang Shaolong groaned in his heart, waited for a while, but the people below still had no intention of leaving, he gritted his teeth, pulled out a flying needle, inserted it through the crack of the window, gently lifted the window latch, and pulled the window open, Flip into the room.A gust of wind swept into the room.
Xiang Shaolong murmured that something was wrong, before he had a chance to close the window, a man's voice said from inside the tent: "Zhi Chun, you must have not closed the window properly, look!"The window is blown open by the wind!
The voice was familiar, it turned out to be Jun Shaoyuan.
The woman named Zhichun said in surprise: There is no reason, let me close it, the weather is really cold!
Xiang Shaolong was taken aback, although the room was big, there was no place to hide, the low couch was less than a foot off the ground, and he couldn't get in if he wanted to, so he gave birth in a hurry, rolled to the candle, and squeezed out the candle core.
Na Zhichun just sat up, ah!A cry: "Blow out the candles!"
Xiang Shaolong didn't dare to hesitate, so he tiptoed to the door, tried to push it, and opened it in response, he was overjoyed, under the cover of Zhi Chun's moving sound, he slipped out and closed the door.Outside is a small empty hall, a staircase leads downstairs, and there are two other rooms.Suddenly there was the sound of the door opening behind him, Xiang Shaolong was out of his wits, he rushed forward and hid behind a screen in the hall in time.The naked girl came out of the room, she was no older than twenty, she was pretty, her skin was fair, her body was plump, she was very charming, Zhichun walked towards the screen with all kinds of charm.
Xiang Shaolong was taken aback, and found that what was placed under his feet were urinals, chamber pots and other convenient objects, so he hurriedly slipped out from the other side of the screen, and fell on the ground so as not to be illuminated by the candle light. In, just to see him out of sight.Xiang Shaolong secretly called out for danger, crawled to the side of the stairs, and walked down when there was a thumping sound inside the screen.At the corner of the stairs, voices came from below, at least four men's voices.
Xiang Shaolong stood blankly at the corner, crying in his heart, if he couldn't steal the "Secret Record" tonight, it would be a disaster.
Turning the corner, looking down from the stairs to the hall below, four warriors were sitting around the mat and chatting in low voices, if he walked down, no matter how careful he was, he would never try to hide it from them, he was so anxious that he almost beat his chest and stamped his feet.
In extreme anxiety, Zhichun's crisp voice came from upstairs: "Is anyone still there?"
Someone responded and walked up the stairs.
Xiang Shaolong yelled inwardly, this time there was no way out, he was caught in the middle, he put his heart on the side, pulled out a flying needle, concentrated on the warrior walking towards the stairs, and stuck it into the corner of the wall at the same time, not letting the other party see Own.
The man replied as he walked, "What's your order, madam?"
Xiang Shaolong suddenly realized that Na Zhichun was one of the two concubines brought by Mr. Shaoyuan from Zhao.
The warrior came to the stairs, and suddenly met Xiang Shaolong face to face, ah!With a cry, it turned out to be Liu Chao, another general who was as famous as Pu Bu.Xiang Shaolong was about to throw the flying needle, but when he saw it was him, he quickly stopped.
Zhichun's voice came down and said: Liu Chao!What's up.
Liu Chao was shocked, exchanged glances with Xiang Shaolong, and replied, "It's nothing!"I just saw a mouse walking by, and it scared me.
Women are most afraid of these small animals, Zhichun is no exception, said in a trembling voice: "Young Master is hungry, Xiaoying and the others are sleeping again, please go to the dining room and send someone to bring some food and wine."After speaking, he went back to the room as if fleeing for his life.
Liu Chao came up and said in a low voice: We are talking about Bingwei, what is going on here and how we can help.
Xiang Shaolong broke his heart and told him about the theft of "Secret Records".
Seeing that Xiang Shaolong trusted him so much, Liu Chao was overjoyed and said, "Bingwei, please wait a moment!"
After going back to say hello to the other three, he asked Xiang Shaolong to come out.Xiang Shaolong first ordered one of them to go to the dining room to order food and drink, then searched carefully in the hall, and finally searched from the hall to the room, and found the secret door to the tunnel entrance under a couch.
Liu Chao said, "Don't worry, Bingwei!"We'll let you know.
Xiang Shaolong had an idea and said: It's best for you to go down with me, and if necessary, you can put the things back to their original places.
Liu Chao readily agreed, grabbed the copper ring with all his strength, lifted the stone slab, walked down more than ten stone steps, and came to the secret passage. He saw that one end led to the inner hall of Lord Xinling, and the other end led to the back mountain. It was obviously safe. The secret way to escape Lord Xinling's mansion, because no one would have thought that there would be a way to escape from the steep rocky mountain.
Liu Chao fetched a lantern to light up the tunnel, and the two of them moved towards Lord Xinling's palace.Coming to another stone step leading up, Xiang Shaolong stopped and carefully observed the walls of the knocking tunnel, and found that there was another mystery in one of the walls.The two tried to push and see, but the wall didn't move.Xiang Shaolong had an idea, and checked each stone brick one by one, and finally found that one of them protruded a little, tried to pull it hard, and the stone brick came out, revealing the keyhole inside.
The two were overjoyed, Xiang Shaolong took out the lockpicking tool, followed the method taught by Mrs. Ya, and opened the lock after a while.Opening the door, under the light of the lantern, both of them were dumbfounded when they saw that it turned out to be a treasure house.There are more than ten boxes of precious jewels in the vast underground stone storehouse, two of which are opened, and the jade, gold and silver are shining brightly under the lights, dazzling the eyes.
Xiang Shaolong said in a low voice: Don't tell the other three people about this. When we have a way to leave Daliang, we can steal a few of them for money. Remember not to be greedy, otherwise people will die for money and birds will eat If you die, you will lose your life at that time.
Liu Chao is also a hero, reminded him, and said in his heart: Bingwei taught you a good lesson!Liu Chao knew.At the same time, there was a surge of respect for Xiang Shaolong's unmoved by treasures.
Xiang Shaolong searched quickly, and found a more secret hidden compartment in the corner of the wall after a while. He took out a rectangular iron box and opened it. ".Looking through the scroll, Xiang Shaolong felt relieved, because the silk of the scroll was so old and yellow, and it was more than ten feet long, thick and heavy. From the beginning to the end, so his plan is absolutely feasible.The scroll is full of pictures of various offensive and defensive tools, and the ingredients of the materials and the procedure of the method are detailed, which is amazing.
Time was running out, and the two left in a hurry.
When Xiang Shaolong woke up, Mrs. Ya and eight maidservants were still hard at work copying it, and it was still dark.Mrs. Ya had already reconciled the fake scroll with a section of the real scroll, and dyed the edge of the scroll yellow with mineral pigments, making it look like a real one. She is indeed an expert in imitation.
Xiang Shaolong wanted to take advantage of the darkness to take the "Secret Record" that only the beginning was genuine, and send it back to the underground secret room without any hassle. It was easy to lift.Back at Mrs. Ya's place, it was already dawn, Mrs. Ya was exhausted and went to bed to rest.Xiang Shaolong fell asleep until Mr. Xinling sent someone to look for him, and hurriedly cleaned up and went to see him.
Mr. Xinling also seemed to have not slept all night, I don't know if he was showing kindness, so he met him in the side hall of Neijin, sat down and smiled and said: For your matter, after a night of hard thinking, I finally came up with a proper arrangement.
The maid served the tea, Lord Xinling ordered: I have something to discuss with the military guards, everyone is not allowed to set foot here!
The servant girl took orders and went.
Lord Xinling asked casually: Did you touch Yan Ran's heart last night? I heard that Lord Longyang and Xiao Wei Mou were invited.
Xiang Shaolong sighed: Don't talk about it!There is no room for me to interject!
Mr. Xinling disagreed and said: That's not the case, your ideas are very creative, and Tan Bang appreciates you very much!
Xiang Shaolong thought to himself that admiring me is useful, and it's not just a stepping stone and a victim for you to succeed.
Lord Xinling saw that he was silent, and asked, "Has Shaolong eaten breakfast?"
Xiang Shaolong touched his belly and shook his head.
Lord Xinling shouted: "Come here!"Xuan patted his forehead and sighed: I'm so confused, I just drove people away, you sit for a while, let me order the servants to bring breakfast.Get up and go out.
Xiang Shaolong was overjoyed and jumped up. The first goal was to sneak in. It looked like an office, filled with files and the like. There was a side door next to it, and there was a big courtyard outside. Behind the courtyard, it looked like a bathroom. The place.Time was running out, he pushed open the side door, and it was indeed Lord Xinling's bedroom, with a quick glance, he naturally couldn't find the entrance to the tunnel.He hurried forward, opened the bottom of the couch, and the entrance of the tunnel came into view. Strangely, there was a copper pipe protruding from the ground, extended to the couch, and turned into a copper faucet, like a unique decoration on the head of a bed.
Xiang Shaolong broke out in a cold sweat immediately, and hurried back to the inner hall, just as Mr. Xinling came back, he said with a smile: "Bring it as soon as possible, come!"Let me tell you about my plans!
What Xiang Shaolong was thinking about was the brass pipe, which was clearly a monitor leading to the tunnel and the secret room, the sound inside would be transmitted from the brass pipe to the faucet at the end of Mr. Xinling's bed, the design was ingenious.Fortunately, he didn't go to bed last night, and his actions were not noticed.
Lord Xinling said: I will make people forge documents and send them to the king today, so that Zhao Ya and all the nobles can return to Zhao, leaving only you and Zhao Qian.Zhao Ya is my invited guest, Lord Longyang has no right to object.
Xiang Shaolong thought to himself that you were just talking to yourself, and with your power, letting them go would be easy.At the same time, he knew that he would actually not let anyone go, but only acted for himself.Immediately, he pretended to be overjoyed and said: Great, but can we let them go early?
Mr. Xinling's face showed embarrassment, and he said after a while: "If such a small thing can't be done, you will teach Shaolong to look down on me, okay!"I will arrange for Mrs. Ya to go out of the city this afternoon, and leave immediately after reuniting with the nobles, Shaolong can rest assured.
Xiang Shaolong secretly laughed in his heart, and asked: How to solve Zhao Qian's problem?
Mr. Xinling said: I will send someone to pretend to be her and let you send her to the palace, and then find a secret place to hide her. I believe Mr. Ling swears to heaven that no matter whether the matter succeeds or not, I will send her away without any damage. Go back to Zhao Guo.
Xiang Shaolong screamed loudly, it doesn't mean that he has a hostage in his hand, even if Xiang Shaolong doesn't follow his orders, if he fails to be captured and still dare not confess him, it is indeed extremely scheming.
Deliver it early.
Lord Xinling watched him eat, and said with a smile: Is Shaolong satisfied with my arrangement?
Xiang Shaolong pretended to be very grateful and said: I am very satisfied, I will definitely live up to the trust!
Mr. Xinling was sure of success, and he laughed heartily. Seeing that Xiang Shaolong did not object to him detaining Zhao Qian, he thought that he completely trusted him, and he was completely suspicious of Xiang Shaolong.When the two were pregnant with each other, the servants came to report that Ji Yanran visited Xiang Shaolong.The two were stunned at the same time, it was a miracle that Ji Yanran would come to find the man.
Lord Xinling's eyes shot out intense jealousy, and he covered it up with a dry cough: Shaolong, you go to see her, maybe she has a crush on you!
However, Xiang Shaolong frowned, he has countless things waiting to be done today, all of which are important matters of life and death, no matter how attractive Ji Yanran is, he must not waste his time on her.While thinking about it, he followed the servants to the living room of the outer house.
Ji Yanran was wearing a white fur coat, standing elegantly and peacefully by a large window, watching the beautiful scenery of the garden outside, without any attendants.There was no one in the hall, but all the entrances and exits and side doors were crowded with guards and servants vying to peek at her style.It can be seen that her attractiveness is like a superstar in the entertainment industry in the 21st century. Fortunately, there is no such thing as an autograph at this time, otherwise her delicate hands must be busy.
Xiang Shaolong came behind her and said in a low voice: Miss Ji!
Ji Yanran turned around gracefully, smiled sweetly at him and said: Can I spare some time?
Seeing her smiling face like a flower, Xiang Shaolong couldn't bear to reject her categorically, nodded and said: If it's just for a while, it's fine.
Ji Yanran heard it only for a while, then gave him a resentful glance, and said softly: Come along with Yanran!Go to the gate.
Xiang Shaolong wondered, where is this beauty taking him?The carriage drove out from the gate of Lord Xinling's Mansion and headed east.There were only Xiang Shaolong and Ji Yanran in the carriage, the body was shaking, and they kept touching each other.
Xiang Shaolong took a peek at her beautiful profile, without any makeup, her beauty was full of youthful brilliance, her delicate body was fragrant and extremely alluring.
Ji Yanran suddenly read: Absolute power corrupts people absolutely, this is the first time Yanran heard such sharp and wise words, sir, you really have courage.After you left last night, everyone including Yan Ran lost interest in talking.Yan Ran stayed up all night, thinking over every word the husband said, and thinking of the expression of conviction when he spoke.
Xiang Shaolong complained in his heart, this is called unintentional insertion.But how can I have time to talk about love with her?
Ji Yanran's face turned cold, and she said calmly: Why did Mr. Xiang and Mr. Xinling come to see Yanran?
Xiang Shaolong really wanted to say that it was just a travel project arranged by Mr. Xinling for him, and it had nothing to do with him.But how could he bear to hurt the peerless beauty like this, and sighed: Miss Ji always asks the guests who come here one by one like this?
Ji Yanran sighed softly, and said softly: Mr. Xiang is the first person who made Yanran want to ask this question, and told Yanran frankly: I am annoying you, so every time I run away in a hurry, how do I want to leave now? Where is the carriage?
After giving him a white look, he said: I have never seen a person who is as unpredictable as you, who hides his thoughts in the bottom of his heart, so that he has no way to show his hands.How much Yanran wishes to have a candle-lit night chat with you, to speak freely!
Xiang Shaolong felt relieved, it seemed that she hadn't fallen in love with him yet, but she was just curious, wishing to know more about his thoughts.Of course, if he launched an offensive at this moment and selected some wonderful theories of the 21st century to please her, he might be able to occupy the crown and win her heart.I just sigh that I have no time to spare at the moment, and I have to contact Wu Zhuo and Pu Bu as soon as possible to arrange the urgent matter of escaping from Daliang.
The carriage stopped.
Xiang Shaolong looked out of the car window in astonishment, it turned out to be a clearing in the forest, surrounded by quiet and no one.
Ji Yanran stretched out her slender hand, and gently pushed his shoulder, with a persuasive look in her eyes, she said: If you still think Yanran is not annoying, get out of the car!
Xiang Shaolong was even more confused, what does it have to do with getting out of the car if he hates her or not?She couldn't help urging her again and again, and stepped out of the carriage in a daze.
Ji Yanran said to the big man driving: You hide away and come back in half an hour.
After the big man took the order, Ji Yanran took off the white fur fur, revealing the warrior uniform inside, Xiang Shaolong's eyes lit up immediately, staring dumbfounded at her beautiful curves and majestic heroic figure.
Ji Yanran pulled out the sword at her waist, and said with a coquettish smile: Xiang Shaolong!I came to kill you by the king's order, let's fight!
Xiang Shaolong said in astonishment: Miss is joking!
Ji Yanran's face was as cold as ice, her beautiful eyes shone with a sharp light, she snorted and said: "Who is joking with you?"Look at the sword!
Xiang Shaolong's eyes were full of sword lights, he didn't dare to be negligent, he drew his sword out of its sheath, DON'T!She parried her extremely sharp sword with a bang, and felt that the opponent's strength was strong, not inferior to the man's arm strength, and what shocked him even more was that the opponent's sword seemed to be sticky, making it impossible for him to unfold the sword.Like a female leopard, Ji Yanran retreats and advances in a ghostly way, twisting her waist like a spring, exerting the strength of her waist and wrists to the fullest, and her sword is as powerful as the Yangtze River, attacking everywhere.
Angry and furious, Xiang Shaolong used Mozi's swordsmanship, defended hard, blocked more than ten strikes, barely found a chance to counterattack, and slashed the opponent's sword with one sword.Naturally, Ji Yanran's arm strength was not as strong as Xiang Shaolong's, and because of the subtlety of his swordsmanship, it was difficult for Xiang Shaolong to teach him strength, so this time he gave the opponent a straight blow, and hurriedly backed away.
Ji Yanran said with a charming smile: Finally, she is willing to show her real kung fu!
Xiang Shaolong was too weak to defend against her previous round of rushing attacks. Although he lost because he lost the opportunity, the main reason was that the opponent's swordsmanship was superb, and he was half a step ahead of Lian Jin. How dare he let her pierce his chest with a sword at this moment, Angle strength and timing are impeccable.
Ji Yanran's beautiful eyes sparkled, she turned sideways to open her chest in the blink of an eye, the long sword moved from bottom to top, and twisted the Feihong sword.Xiang Shaolong almost let go of the precious blade, and moved away in great horror.Ji Yanran's sword light was brilliant, and she easily regained the initiative. The sword momentum unfolded, and amidst the swishing sound, she attacked consecutively like thunder and lightning, without giving the opponent the slightest chance to breathe.
At this time, Xiang Shaolong truly realized why she was ranked second in the Wei Kingdom in terms of swordsmanship, and she was indeed better than himself, but this was purely based on swordsmanship, and his strength was that there was no part of his body that was not a powerful weapon. Second, if you want to survive, you have to use a strange trick to win.On the one hand, he used his sword to seal the frame, trying his best to defend Mozi's swordsmanship; on the other hand, he secretly observed the terrain to see if there was any magic method to turn defeat into victory.
Ji Yanran fought more and more courageously, every posture was so full of vitality, both scary and attractive.Xiang Shaolong couldn't help backing up, and bumped his back against a big tree.Ji Yanran laughed, the long sword hesitated, and suddenly a sword was wiped out.Xiang Shaolong swiped his sword horizontally.
when!With a crisp sound, Xiang Shaolong's Feihong flew out of his hand.
Ji Yanran was stunned for a moment, because it was obvious that Xiang Shaolong threw his hand away on purpose to let her chop the sword away, but she used such force that her body couldn't help but threw herself in the same direction.
boom!With a sound, Xiang Shaolong's flying kick swept Ji Yanran's pink buttocks straight, and she fell sideways involuntarily in severe pain, and fell into the thick soft grass.Ji Yanran turned over in shock, and when she was about to use her waist to bounce back, Xiang Shaolong flew over and pressed on her beautiful body, his two big hands grabbed her wrists like iron hoops, immediately immobilizing her.
Smiling, Xiang Shaolong moved his face closer, looked at her beautiful eyes from about three inches away, and said: Are you not convinced?
Ji Yanran's whole body softened, and she let go of the hand holding the sword, her pretty face turned red, becoming more and more beautiful and beautiful, she said softly: How could Yanran be unconvinced?
Xiang Shaolong's face darkened and he said: Then how do you make a mission to your king?
The two were entangled with each other, and the feeling of ecstasy surged up, and Xiang Shaolong really didn't know what it was like to say such hostile words.
Ji Yanran gave up her resistance and lay softly on the ground, she blinked her big beautiful eyes and said: What's wrong, Yanran doesn't understand Mr. Xiang, what are you talking about?
Seeing the joy in her heart, Xiang Shaolong gradually understood, stood up angrily and said: So you were lying to me.
Ji Yanran said angrily: Why don't you drag him up?
Xiang Shaolong was so angry that he almost didn't want to talk to her, but it was hard to treat this beauty cruelly, so he stretched out his hand to pull her up.
Ji Yanran saluted and said: Don't blame Yanran, okay?If not, how can you try out your unrivaled footwork, that place still hurts!
Xiang Shaolong smiled wryly and shook his head, went to pick up the Feihong Sword, put it back in its sheath, turned around and left.
On the way back to the house in the carriage, Ji Yanran was overjoyed and triumphant, she couldn't help peeking at the angry Xiang Shaolong, and said softly: "Xiang Shaolong, your angry expression is so beautiful!"
Xiang Shaolong was furious over it, and gave her a hard look and said, "I never thought that a talented girl with both talents and talents would deceive people, and she still pretends to be so similar."
Ji Yanran gave him a charming look and said: Don't you wonder why people want to try your sword skills?
Xiang Shaolong leaned against the back of the chair, raised his legs, put on a nonchalant look, and said with a smile: You want to see if Xiang is qualified to be your future husband-in-law, don't you?
Ji Yanran blushed and pursed her lips and said: You are only half right, because you haven't reached that point yet, and you are barely qualified!Then he smiled and said: Until today, you are still the first finalist. If you really want to pursue him, Yan Ran can try her best to give you convenience and opportunities.
Xiang Shaolong thought to himself that this woman is beyond words, frowned and said: Love is a subtle feeling between a man and a woman, it comes naturally, there is no one like you who considers it in every possible way.
Ji Yanran's beautiful eyes shone with an indescribable light, she smiled and said: "You speak very sweetly, better than anyone else, so Yanran knows that you are just pretending to dislike him for some reason, but the way you look at them reveals that you are The secret of the heart.Especially when you pressed him on the grass just now, Yan Ran knew more about your feelings for me.
Xiang Shaolong cried out inwardly ashamed, but was speechless again, just staring at her blankly.
Ji Yanran happily said: Do you want to go back to Lord Xinling's mansion, or to Yanran's Yahu Xiaozhu?
Xiang Shaolong woke up with a jolt, and secretly cursed himself for being lost to her, and shouted: "Turn left quickly!"
Ji Yanran issued an order to turn to another street before arriving at the main gate of Lord Xinling's Mansion.
Xiang Shaolong said: Please stop at the intersection ahead, I want to get off.
After Ji Yanran issued the order, she said bitterly: Mr. Xiang, do you really miss Ji Yanran so much?
Xiang Shaolong felt heartbroken for a while, sighed secretly, leaned into her little ear and said softly: Miss is the most attractive woman Xiang has met in his life.But the time and place are too inappropriate, soon the lady will understand my difficulties, forget about me!okay?Make up your mind and get out of the car.
He stood on the street, Ji Yanran lifted the curtain and called out: Mr. Xiang!
Xiang Shaolong sighed secretly, and moved to the window.
Ji Yanran looked at him deeply, her pretty eyes sparkled with wisdom, and said calmly and softly: Yanran understands, if you have any difficulties, remember that Ji Yanran will help you no matter what.
Xiang Shaolong met Wu Zhuo in an old abandoned house.The absolutely reliable comrade-in-arms who lived and died together said: We followed your instructions and dug a tunnel under the camp to a mountain forest behind the camp.They also sent people to go through the tunnel and make more than a dozen rafts, which were hidden in the jungle next to a small river connecting Dagou. If they went along the river, they could reach the southern border of Qi State in two days.
Xiang Shaolong was overjoyed and said: Madam Ya and the others will return to the camp before dusk today, you taught Cheng Xu to put on a show and insist on going on the road tomorrow, Lord Xinling will not be wary of us.
Wu Zhuo frowned and asked: Then how did you sneak out of the city?Mr. Xinling will make people take you seriously.
Xiang Shaolong said: I must not leave, otherwise no one will be able to escape.It will take at least an hour to evacuate people through that tunnel.太陽下山你們須立即行動，弄些假人以掩人耳目，留下所有戰甲馬匹和重型裝備。抵齊境後設法由牧民處買些馬匹，晝伏夜行，可安然回到趙國去，總之祕訣在隱祕兩個字，你當自己是馬賊就行。
烏卓臉色大變問道：那孫姑爺怎辦，我丟下你回去，主人定會要了我的命！至少我留下來陪你。
項少龍正色道：這是命令，你須照我的話去做，沒有你，成胥定成不了事。接著放軟聲音安慰他道：我絕不會不愛惜自己生命的，而且還有周詳的計劃，不但足可自救，還可帶走趙倩。
Uzo still shook his head.項少龍嘆一口氣，坦然向他說出整個計劃。
烏卓聽罷沉吟一會，道：孫姑爺若三個月內回不到趙國去，我烏卓便刎頸自盡，以報答孫姑爺的情義。
項少龍既感動又無奈，再商談一些細節，分手後，通過巧妙的聯絡手法，找到蒲布，密談一番，施施然回到信陵君府。Lord Xinling took him to lunch, after lunch Xiang Shaolong went to Caiyun Pavilion to meet Mrs. Ya.
雅夫人早得到信陵君方面的通知，收拾行囊，見他回來，不顧一切撲入他懷裡，痛哭道：沒有你，雅兒怎也不走！
項少龍大感頭痛，又哄又嚇，最後被迫說出整個計劃，雅夫人知道這是他們唯一保命的方法，含淚答應。It's time to go.趙倩那邊三主僕亦是抱頭痛哭，一副生離死別的樣子，聞者心酸。在項少龍的再三催促下，翠綠翠桐兩婢揮淚上路。
信陵君親自陪他們出城，抵達營地，成胥依著項少龍吩咐，堅持待到明天上路。項少龍詐作無奈地向信陵君打個眼色，接受成胥的提議。
信陵君笑道：我特別調來一營輕騎兵，明天清早護送他們回去。
項少龍早看到那在附近監視的魏兵軍營，只看規模便知兵力不少於二千人，心中暗笑，和信陵君返城去也。
兩人並騎而行，信陵君道：由現在開始，少龍最好留在府裡，一來養足精神，免得節外生枝，壞了大事，我已派人把趙倩送往隱祕處藏好，好使少龍心無旁騖，應付明天的宴會。
項少龍聽得一顆心立時掉往萬丈深淵，若趙倩被他扣押起來，自己豈非完全被這奸人控制？But he still had to pretend to be grateful.God!What should I do?
信陵君若無其事地問道：嫣然今早找你幹什麼？
項少龍這時想到的卻是若信陵君明早發覺雅夫人等全體溜掉，自會懷疑自己的真誠，那時會怎樣對付他和趙倩？聞言強顏笑道：我也不知她找我做什麼，東南西北扯著我說了一會。
信陵君暗忖只要她沒有看上你便成，再不說話。
項少龍心情極壞，神不守舍地回到信陵君府，回到住處，把那四名艷麗的婢女趕走，坐立不安，心焦如焚，卜的一聲，一顆帛布包裹的石子擲了進來。項少龍取下帛布，原來是劉巢的傳訊，大意說信陵君加派人手監視他項少龍，所以不敢來和他見面，趙倩則被帶到平原夫人的住所軟禁起來，他們會緊密注意她，布底還繪有簡單的地圖，指出平原夫人所在的建築物。
項少龍立時鬆一口氣，只要知道趙倩還在府內，便不致一籌莫展。同時猜到信陵君不安好心，明天將會照樣把趙倩由平原夫人代他送入宮去，把自己當作傻子和蠢蛋。
天色漸暗。項少龍放開心懷，讓四名婢女回來服侍他梳洗沐浴，再出外廳與信陵君共進晚膳，虛與委蛇一番。
During the banquet, Xiang Shaolong said: I want to practice sword alone tonight, so it's best not to send someone to wait on me.Hey!沒有雅夫人，那些婢女又那麼動人，我怕一時忍不住就糟！
信陵君不疑有他，欣然答應。暗忖只要我多派人手監視，趙倩又在我手上，還怕你飛走嗎？
項少龍回到屋裡，立即在屋頂弄個小洞鑽出去，把索鉤射出，連接到附近一棵大樹，然後回到屋裡，正要綁上木劍，敲門聲傳來。項少龍無奈下忙解卸裝備，走出房去，把門拉開，平原夫人艷光四射的立於門外，以複雜無比的眼神深深地看著他。他心叫不妙，無奈下把她迎進來。平原夫人輕移蓮步，往他寢室走去。
項少龍立時魂飛魄散，榻上放滿見不得光的東西，怎容她闖進去，人急智生下，搶前兩步，從後把她攔腰抱個正著。平原夫人嬌吟一聲，癱軟入他懷裡，淚水涔涔流下臉頰。
項少龍一生從未有過有那麼多女人為他流淚，大感頭痛，把她扭轉身來，捧起她梨花帶雨的俏臉，扮作手足無措地道：什麼事！
平原夫人閉上眼睛，咬緊牙根，強忍苦淚，只是搖頭，滿面淒楚。沒有人比項少龍更明白她矛盾的心情，既要狠心陷害他，讓他去送死，又忍不住來見他，這是何苦來由！平原夫人撲入項少龍懷裡，用盡氣力抱他，俏臉埋入他寬闊的胸膛，開始飲泣。項少龍暗暗叫苦，給她這樣纏著，還怎樣去救趙倩，若楚墨那批苦行僧般的劍手殺到，自己可能性命不保。
平原夫人平靜了點，低聲道：少龍！Take me into the room!
項少龍差點喊救命，那間房怎見得人？Hastily said: madam!不是遲些嗎？
Mrs. Pingyuan stomped her feet and said angrily: People want it now!Still don't hug me in?
項少龍把她攔腰抱起。
Suddenly the door knocker knocked again.The two stayed together at the same time.
下人的聲音在門外響起道：夫人，君上有急事請妳立即去見他。
項少龍放下平原夫人，扮作無奈地攤手。心知肚明是信陵君接到平原夫人來找他的報告，怕乃姊感情用事，壞了大計，於是派人來將她請走。
Mrs. Ping Yuan first showed an angry face, then her expression darkened, and she replied: "Here we come!"
撲上前摟緊項少龍，獻上一個攙雜快樂、痛苦和訣別種種複雜情緒的火辣辣熱吻，低頭推門去了，再沒有回過頭來。項少龍不知應恨她還是愛她，但剛才的一吻，確使他有永世難忘，銷魂蝕骨、愛恨難分的感覺。
當項少龍來到平原夫人居住的大宅院，趙倩淒涼無依的芳心正苦苦地想念項少龍，他成為美麗公主唯一的希望。她一方面對項少龍有近乎盲目的強大信心，又深怕他不知自己被軟禁在這裡。兩個反覆交替的思想把她折磨得苦不堪言，形影不離地貼身看守她的兩個健壯婦人先後渾身一震，分別暈倒地上，而軒昂俊偉的項少龍傲然出現房內。
趙倩欣喜若狂，撲入項少龍懷裡去，嬌軀劇烈地顫抖。項少龍把她抱往隱避的角落，伸手解她的棉袍。趙倩縱使對項少龍千肯萬肯，仍嚇一大跳，暗怨這人為何在如此險境，還有興趣來這一套。剛想抗議，項少龍愛憐地吻她的香唇，繼續為她脫掉羅裙。
趙倩給他靈活的手指拂過敏感的肌膚，弄得又癢又酥軟，六神無主，才發覺項少龍解下背上的小包裹，為她只剩下綿布內衣的動人肉體穿上一套耐寒的厚暖衣褌，加蓋一件黑色的護甲背心。項少龍蹲下去，再為她換上遠行的靴子。趙倩感動得熱淚盈眶，心中充滿幸福和感激，這時就算為項少龍死，心甘情願。
一切停當，項少龍站起來，像抱著世上最珍貴的寶物般，低聲道：小寶貝聽話嗎？
趙倩拚命點頭。項少龍取出布帶，把美麗的公主兜縛背上，又把她修長的玉腿繞過腰間，用布帶紮緊，兩人立時二合為一，再無半點隔閡。這些布帶，是雅夫人應他請求趕製出來，項少龍受過訓練，深明適當裝備的重要性，故此事前的準備工夫做得非常充份。趙倩伏在他強壯的背上，先前所有愁思苦慮一掃而空，舒服滿足。項少龍來到窗旁，往外望去，輕輕推開窗門，側耳傾聽。一隊巡邏守衛，剛在屋外經過。待他們遠去，項少龍背起趙倩竄出窗外，輕巧地落到外面的草坪上。在以前的軍訓，他常背負數十公斤的東西翻山越嶺，鍛練體力，這麼一位輕盈的美女，自然絲毫不影響他的行動。在園林中，他忽而靜匿不動，忽而疾風般狂奔，迅速靈巧地移動前進，目標當然是少原君那座兩層樓房。
Suddenly, bells and drums rang in the southeast corner, followed by voices of people, mixed with the sound of ferocious dogs barking.
項少龍循聲望去，見那方火燄沖天而起，在這星月無光的晚上，份外觸目驚心。他心叫符毒你來得正是時候，趁所有人的注意力均集中起火處，迅速朝少原君的住處竄去。
喊殺聲震天價響，兵刃交擊聲由項少龍住的那座平房方向傳來。項少龍此時到達少原君房子後的花叢，見少原君領著劉巢等人，由屋內持兵器奔出，往打鬥聲傳來的方向撲去。他心中暗笑，從劉巢早打開的窗門爬入房內，駕輕就熟鑽進地道，把入口關上，奔下地道，朝後山的方向走去。他的靴子底墊軟綿，雖是迅速奔跑，仍然踏地無聲，不怕被信陵君聽到，何況信陵君現在絕不會還呆在榻上。
奔跑一會，地道以九十度角折往南方，再一盞熱茶的工夫，他來到地道另一端的出口。打開出口的鐵門，然後沿門外往上的石級，直達通往地面最外一層的出口。Outside is a dense jungle, located outside the south wall of Lord Xinling's mansion.
項少龍封閉地道，研究方向，朝大梁城最接近的城牆奔去，只要離開這座城市，逃生的機會大增。黑夜的街道闃無人跡，有若鬼域，只恨家家戶戶門前掛有風燈，雖是燈光黯淡，又被北風吹得搖晃不定，仍極難掩蔽行蹤。項少龍盡量避開大街，只取黑暗的橫巷走。驀地蹄聲驟響，項少龍剛橫過一條大街，在竄入另一道橫巷前，已被敵人發現，呼叫著策馬馳來。項少龍大吃一驚，想不通信陵君為何可以這麼快騰出人手，追著他來？At this time, it is useless to think, but to run desperately.
趙倩緊伏在他背上的身體輕輕抖顫，顯是非常緊張，使他更是心生愛憐。這金枝玉葉的美人兒，竟受到這等災劫！奔出橫巷後，剛轉入另一條大街，左方蹄聲急響，十多騎兵狂風般捲至。項少龍知道避無可避，把心一橫，移往一旁，背房舍，面向敵人。
來人紛紛下馬，其中一人大笑道：項少龍，今天看你能逃到哪裡去？
竟然是以禽獸為師的囂魏牟，他的左右手寧充和征勒當然在其中。項少龍心中暗數，對方共有十九人，無一不是慓悍強橫之輩，幸好對方顯是匆匆趕來，沒有攜帶弩弓勁箭等遠程攻擊的可怕武器，否則只是扳動機括，把他兩人殺死只是舉手之勞。十九人分散開來，以半月形的陣式把他圍得遁逃無路。
囂魏牟冷笑道：早想到你會臨陣退縮，所以日夜不停監視你，哈！You have that beautiful princess on your back!今晚我保證可令她快樂地死去。
他的手下聞言肆無忌憚的淫笑起來。
囂魏牟加上一句道：老子享受過後，你們人人有份！
These murderous people screamed even more strangely, they obviously regarded Zhao Qian as something in their pocket.
項少龍依著以前軍訓教過的方法，以深長的呼吸，保持心頭的冷靜，同時解開縛緊趙倩的布帶，吩咐道：倩兒！這是生死關頭，妳要提起勇氣，怎也要躲在我背後。
趙倩本被嚇到失魂落魄，聽到項少龍
