"There aren't enough horses. Without the stirrups running so fast, the slaves and maids really can't stand it......" Wang Gui glanced at the mount with trepidation, "The princes go first, and the slaves and maids go back by themselves?" ”

Wang Gui is Zhu Gaoxu's slave, Zhu Gaochu immediately made a decision, nodded and responded: "That's fine, those people want to arrest our brothers, and they are not interested in you, you just need to take the path back." ”

Wang Gui bowed and said, "The slave and maid can't serve the three princes on the road." ”

At this moment, Du Qianrui's voice also said: "The slave family and the prince are leaving." ”

Zhu Gaoxu also nodded in agreement. He was not wrong about this girl, her mind was indeed flexible, and when she heard that the horse was not enough, she was very conscious and active...... There weren't enough horses to ride, and the first ones who should have walked were the two of them. Otherwise, if you want to leave any king, won't the two brothers say that he Zhu Gaoxu has a hole in his brain?

Zhu Gaoxu immediately untied the bag on his waist and threw it to Wang Gui: "If you take the money, you may be able to use it on the road." ”

Wang Gui bowed and said, "Thank you, Lord Wang." May the three masters be safe and sound and return home as soon as possible, when the slaves and maids will serve before and after the saddle. ”

"Let's go." Zhu Gaoxu waved his hand.

Du Qianrui also stood beside Wang Gui and curtsied goodbye, and the two walked to the field on the side of the road. The night was still dark, and their figures were out of sight of the torch lighting.

Shizi climbed down from the horse with difficulty, and collapsed on the ground again, "Two horses, the three of us are not enough." ”

No one responded to him. Shizi is telling the truth, there is no double stirrup, three people ride two horses, riding is a way to ride, it must not be too fast; It didn't take long just now, and Wang Gui and the others couldn't stand it. If you continue to ride like that, the egg will be broken, and you will become the same as Wang Gui.

If you ride slowly, you will lose your chance, and you will be blocked by more pursuers.

For a long time, no one spoke. Shizi sat on the ground and sighed, looking tired and depressed. Gao Sui was still on the horse, holding the reins of the horse in his hand, and he had no intention of dismounting at all.

Time passed little by little, and in the quiet of the night, there was a restless restlessness. All three glanced at the road behind them from time to time, but it was so dark that they couldn't see anything.

Zhu Gaoxu opened his mouth and said: "It's my horse that is damaged, eldest brother and third brother, don't delay, go first." ”

Shizi asked, "What do you do?" ”

Zhu Gaoxu was still thinking about it, and did not answer for a while.

After a while, Shizi suddenly sighed "sigh" and said, "I won't go, you two will ride away." ”

Zhu Gaoxu casually pretended to be polite, "Then how can it be done, the eldest brother is the son of the world!" ”

Shizi sat there paralyzed, his hands behind his back motionless, his hair in a messy bun, and the occasional slightly clean skin in his gray face, but it was very pale.

Shizi sighed, and said with a dejected face: "I'm just a wasted person, I'm too fat, my legs and feet are not good, it's useless." ”

He said this himself, which made Zhu Gaoxu feel a little compassionate, and said with good words, "Big brother, don't say that......"

Shizi looked up at Zhu Gaoxu and smiled bitterly, "Father has always been not uncommon, you know." I don't want my father to be embarrassed, and I don't want to do this...... What if I'm the son of the world? If you want to give up one, many people will want that person to be me. ”

Zhu Gaoxu said: "My father has high hopes for the eldest brother, so the eldest brother is the son. ”

Shizi shook his head and said, "I was born first." Needless to say, you have to remember that we are brothers who are connected by blood, and the eldest brother is willing to stay, and he will receive my affection. ”

When Zhu Gaoxu heard this, he was stunned for a while, looking at Shizi's sincere eyes, he was a little confused at first, but soon understood again.

Zhu Gaoxu is cross-passed, and he really can't bring in any brotherly feelings; However, the prince is truly brotherly to them. Come to think of it, how can you not even have a little affection for so many years as a brother?

For a while, Zhu Gaoxu was indeed a little moved by the prince, and his emotions were extremely complicated, with guilt in them.

His guilt, because the son of the world was poisoned, was indeed done by him! The poison is Junyin grass, which is called lily of the valley in modern times, and there is exactly one in Nanjing; The antidote is cinnabar, a very common thing, and it is that thing that is used for stamping in the yamen of all sizes, which can just cure the poison of lily of the valley.

Even, if it weren't for the fact that Xu Huizu had already suspected it, if he was found to have killed his brother, it would be too serious in ancient times...... Zhu Gaoxu really didn't want to detoxify the prince and let him die!

Zhu Gaoxu has a guilty calculating heart, but now the eldest brother is willing to sacrifice himself. For a while, Zhu Gaoxu's face was hot, and his heart was blocked, and he couldn't get over the hurdle.

He constantly makes excuses for himself, and he has to look at the so-called feelings rationally: the current situation is only because the external contradictions are much greater than the internal contradictions of the brothers! However, how can people be completely cold-blooded if they are not plants and trees?

The prince said: "Now my father is in danger, the enemy is strong and I am weak. The second brother is brave and good at fighting, and recently I think you are brave and strategic, and more benevolent. The second brother hurried back to his father's side to help his father and king, so as not to let our mother, our brothers and children suffer! ”

"Big brother, I got your love!" Zhu Gaoxu's voice was a little strange, and he turned to look grim, and said with a smile, "But the eldest brother and the third brother still have to go first, I have a way." ”

"What's the solution?" Shizi asked.

Zhu Gaoxu said: "Do you remember, we passed by a post station yesterday?" It's just that in order to avoid our ears and eyes, we didn't settle down at the post station. I'll now go back and borrow a horse at the inn. ”

"Will this work?" Shizi frowned.

Zhu Gaoxu said: "Big brother, don't worry, I have my own way." ”

At this moment, Gao Sui, who was riding on the horse, said, "Second brother, I'll go with you!" The station is too far away, so let's ride a horse. ”

Zhu Gaoxu glanced at him, shook his head and said, "It's too upside down, the egg can't stand it." The eldest brother has inconvenient legs and feet, so someone has to take care of him. ”

Gao Sui was just about to speak, but Zhu Gaoxu said categorically: "Don't mother-in-law, go quickly!" ”

With that, he turned and strode over to the wounded horse, groped around for a while, and found a bag of dry food and a waist knife. Those knights were equipped with weapons just now, but they didn't dare to use them.

"Drink!" Zhu Gaoxu exhaled sharply, lifted the injured horse to his shoulder, as if lifting weights, and then slowly stood up from a squatting position.

This Mongolian horse is not large, but it is a few hundred catties. Rao doesn't need to stretch his arms straight, just carrying it on his shoulders is very human! This Zhu Gaoxu's body is really powerful, and later, he was able to lift a copper cylinder of hundreds of catties before he died, which doesn't seem to be an exaggeration!

Zhu Gaoxu carried the horse and touched it into the pine forest on the side with a torch.

The injured horse could not be allowed to stay on the side of the road, because with this broken wounded horse, the pursuers could deduce a lot of information from it, and Wang Gui and the others might be caught crookedly.

Zhu Gaoxu walked for a while, took a torch to shine, and found a pit in the grass, so he threw the injured horse into it, and the horse "neighed" and screamed.

He then walked down the slope, pulled out his waist knife, stabbed the horse in the neck, then pressed the struggling front hooves, put his mouth up, and poured a few mouthfuls of horse blood to replenish his strength. Then another stab was made to make sure that the horse's throat was completely severed.

Zhu Gaoxu climbed out of the pit, groped for a pine tree, and cut the bark with a waist knife. Then he pecked out the heart of the tree with the tip of his knife, which was rich in pine resin, and torches were usually used as the raw material.

He carefully walked through the pine forest with a torch, and soon a dirt road appeared in front of him.

Zhu Gaoxu jumped on the dirt road, took a few deep breaths, bent down and slapped his calves, made a strange movement for a while, and trotted along the road.

This is very physical. In his previous life, he also participated in the school's marathon training, and with the rhythm of breathing, he ran more efficiently, and he didn't waste such a good body!

At this time, the countryside of Hebei was really not very rich, and it was dark at night, and I couldn't even see a light on for half a day. Fortunately, Zhu Gaoxu's sense of direction is still relatively strong, and he runs forward in the direction of the road he came from, not fast or slow.

When he found the post station he passed by yesterday, there was only the surrounding complex with lights, and the post station was "open 24 hours". By this time, the sky had turned white and was about to light up.

There is a fence outside the main entrance of the inn, the gate is closed, and there is a light inside.

Zhu Gaoxu pondered, to this place is bright and bright, and he must have an official document, but he does not have it. So the rest of the way is either to rob or steal!

He decided to steal as much as he could, so as not to expose the target prematurely.

Zhu Gaoxu circled around the post station, found the shortest wall, jumped over, grabbed the wall with both hands, and then slowly climbed up.

Unexpectedly, just jumped off the earthen wall, and met a person standing not far away with a lantern, and the two looked at each other!

it! Didn't that guy want to sleep with Du Qianrui in the inn and slap himself again?! Zhu Gaoxu is in the dark, and then he is born in the light; Zhu Gaoxu's face was stained with horse blood, and the afterlife seemed to have been washed clean, and the swelling on his face had not disappeared.

The latter didn't seem to recognize Zhu Gaoxu, and after a while, he opened his throat and shouted: "Thief! Someone, there's a thief ......."

Zhu Gaoxu wanted to stop it too late, so he was suddenly furious and rushed forward with an arrow step. Twisted the collar of the posterity, raised the palm of his hand and fanned it, "Call!" ”

The crackling and dense slaps greeted the face of the later life, Zhu Gaoxu broke the jar and scolded, "Scream!" Let you scream, call enough! ”

The latter cried and screamed, his face was already red and swollen, and it was estimated that even his father couldn't recognize it!

When Zhu Gaoxu had enough, he even cried: "Mother! Thou thief is also arrogant, why thou shalt thou beat me! ”

At this moment, a fire shone behind the door, and a green-robed officer rushed over with a group of people, armed with blades and clubs. The green-robed official saw Zhu Gaoxu grabbing the descendant, and suddenly shouted: "Don't move my son, the hero's subordinates are merciful!" ”

Zhu Gaoxu was angry and tired, and scolded him: "Mother, it turns out that you are just the son of Yicheng, and Lao Tzu still thinks that you have some goods!" ”
