The System Forces Me to Be the Emperor

Xiao Rui and his party finally came to the bank of Qijiang River.

From a distance, I saw a large number of boats gathered on the main wharf, and there were too many people fleeing, so that the wharf was overcrowded. The Zhao Guoshui army from the Qijiang camp came to maintain order, and ten buildings were lined up. The safety of the river surface prevents water thieves from looting.

Xiao Rui and the others didn't go to the main pier to join in the fun, just like the last time they crossed the river, they just found a small boat to cross the river. The reason why Gan Ning was not notified was because Gan Ning was still a water thief. If he came to attract the attention of Qijiang camp, it would be bad. After all, according to Gan Ning's plan, he needed to recruit An to enter Qijiang camp.

Soon, two small boats rowed over.

"Seven distinguished guests, do you want to cross the river?" the boatman asked.

Zhang Liang said: "Yes, cross the river!"

The boatman said casually: "Xia's army from the east is coming soon. Now the people are fleeing to the west, and there are too few going east. You are not afraid of danger."

"Our family members are all there, there is nothing we can do." Zhang Liang explained casually, but the boatman's words reminded him.

Yes, the common people fled to the west, but they went east. When they first came, it was like sailing against the current along the way.

Zhang Liang looked at Guo Jia, Guo Jia was also worried about this, but crossing the river was the only way to go east, and after crossing the river, he would fish into the sea, there was no other way now.

"Seven guest officers, the boat is tight now, the ferry fee is one tael of silver..." The boatman's words rang again.

Xiao Rui ignored the boatman's offer to sit on the ground and waved his hand. Li Yuanfang gave a tael of silver, Xiao Rui, Dian Wei, Yang Youji a boat, Zhang Liang, Guo Jia, Li Yuanfang and A Zhu a boat, and sailed eastward.

...

Xiao Rui, Zhang Liang, and Guo Jia didn't think deeply about it. Was it really for the purpose of maintaining order and safety that the Qijiang camp sent ten buildings and boats here?

In the largest building boat in the middle, an old man was drinking tea with a deputy captain of the Qijiang camp. If Xiao Rui were here, he would be shocked to find that this old man was none other than Huang Qilin, whom he had always wanted to get rid of!

This old thing didn't hide in Zhao Guohuang's capital, but ran here!

Judging from his relationship with the deputy commander of the Qijiangying Navy, it seems that they are very close.

just listen to:

"Old Huang, are you sure that Prince Daxia will cross the river from here?" the vice commander of the navy asked suspiciously.

Huang Qilin nodded and said, "Nine out of ten!"

The news that Polu had injured Emperor Zhao was concealed from the civil and military officials, but Huang Qilin was not concealed from it. Huang Qilin was shocked by the horror and mystery of gunpowder. He felt terrified that the emperor had mastered such a terrifying fetish, and he was even more determined to kill Xiao Rui.

At the same time, he knew that Emperor Zhao would not survive, and even if the guards stood by his side to protect him, he could only linger on for a few days. So he immediately left Zhao Kingdom's imperial capital and rushed to Qijiang County as quickly as possible.

Huang Qilin's thoughts were very direct and clever. Since Xiao Rui was assassinating Zhao Huang, he must wait for news of Zhao Huang's death to come out, so he must have not left the imperial capital. Once he was sure Zhao Huang could not be saved, he would leave. And it is very likely that he will go east and cross the river from Qijiang County.

In addition, the common people now go west, and few people go east, as long as they keep an eye on the west bank of the Qijiang River, there will naturally be results!

While the two were talking, a monitoring sailor rushed to report: "Reporting to Mr. Dutong, seven people just rented two small boats to cross the river not far from the south of the wharf. Simple, some of the guards are burly and strong men, and they look like masters of martial arts! The subordinates dare not act rashly!"

"It might be them!" Huang Qilin's eyes lit up. After guarding for the past few days, there were also many people who went east, but after besieging them, it was found that they were all ordinary people, and they all took the ferry from the pier. If these seven people didn't go to the pier, there would be problems at first glance, and there were people with high martial arts skills among them, so it was extremely possible that they were the Prince of Daxia.

The vice commander of the navy said in admiration: "Huang Laozhen is a god! Then we directly sailed to encircle and suppress them? On the river, haha, let's see how they escape!"

To be cautious, Huang Qilin shook his head and said: "It may be them, but not necessarily. To be cautious, it is better not to use the building boats. If it is not to scare the snakes, it will be troublesome. Just like before, send the small boats hiding on both sides of the bank to surround them. Blocking. As Lord Du Tong said, on the river, even if the opponent is an enemy of ten thousand people, is it possible to fly away with wings?"

"It's Mr. Huang's careful consideration, and my nephew admires it!" the deputy governor immediately ordered.

At this time, the two small boats carrying Xiao Rui and others were swaying slowly, and they were about to reach the middle of the river. At this moment, the small boat hiding in the bushes on both sides of the bank immediately sailed out when they saw the beacon signal from the tall ship.

Sixteen small boats sailed out from the west bank, each of which had five sailors dressed in casual clothes, all equipped with bows and arrows, and the five rowed at the same time at a very fast speed, directly drawing a ripple on the calm lake. Sixteen small boats also sailed out from the east bank. With the same personnel and configuration, thirty-two small boats spread out to form two semicircles to encircle and encircle Xiao Rui and others.

"Master, look!"

Yang Youji is an archer with extraordinary eyesight. He was the first to see the boat coming from the east, and everyone got up to look at it vigilantly.

"There are also from behind!" Li Yuanfang looked back to the west, and there were also boats rushing towards him.

Xiao Rui's heart sank, a lucky thing really happened, the enemy had already been waiting at this necessary place, quietly waiting for them to throw themselves into the trap.

The boatmen of the two boats were too frightened to slide their oars, and the boats stopped in the middle of the river immediately.

Now it's troublesome!

Everyone is aware of the danger, and it is a great danger between life and death!

There is no place to hide on the river, it is impossible to jump into the water! Although Xiao Rui understands water skills, the opponents are all sailors. Does anyone have better water skills? As for Zhang Liang and Guo Jia, they are even more landlubbers.

Dian Wei and Yang Youji have already protected Xiao Rui, even if they use their bodies as human shields, they must protect His Highness's safety. Zhang Liang also asked Li Yuanfang to jump on Xiao Rui's boat, and warned the three of them that if they really fought, they would escort His Highness away at any cost, but the group didn't know what to do, and now they could only wait and see what happened.

It didn't take long for the surrounding boats to come around. Seeing that the navy was equipped with bows and arrows and aimed at them, Xiao Rui raised his hand to stop Yang Youji who was holding the arrow and pulling the bow.

Only Yang Youji is a long-range shooter, and the opponent has dozens of people, so he can't win.

"Let them get closer! Take it easy and see what the other party has to say." Xiao Rui said in a deep voice.

Yang Youji nodded, and then put away his bow and arrow.

Soon, thirty-two boats completely surrounded Xiao Rui and the others. On one of the boats, a man shouted, "Who are you? What are you going east for?"

Zhang Liangdao: "We are from Dongzang County and have been living in the imperial capital. Now Dongzang County has been occupied by the Xia Kingdom, but our relatives are still there. When we go back this time, we want to take them out of Dongzang County. If you Robbery, we can give you all the money!"

"That's right! I only hope that the hero will survive!" Guo Jia also said.

After speaking, Guo Jia took out the household registration certificates of the seven people.

In order to hide, this group of sailors did not wear Qi Jiangying's clothes, so Zhang Liang and Guo Jia pretended that they were water thieves.

As soon as the questioning man raised his hand, the person next to him handed him a painting. After opening it, the person on the painting was Xiao Rui.

He glanced at the faces of Xiao Rui's seven people, and found that none of them looked like the people in the portrait.

Fortunately, Xiao Rui made a disguise, A Zhu's makeup skills are superb, even if Xiao Rui didn't wear a human skin mask, his makeup would make him completely different from before.

However, the man did not let him go because he didn't look like him, but said: "We are not water thieves, but the water army of Qijiang camp, and we are ordered to hunt down fugitives here. The seven of you are all suspects, follow me now." See our adults, if you have no problems, we will let you go."

"Okay! Then I will trouble the adults." Xiao Rui secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and then responded with a smile.

Looking at Zhang Liang and Guo Jia, the two were also thankful that there was room for maneuver without direct action. This time, it was really A Zhu's makeup that brought a glimmer of life.

Afterwards, the boat was escorted around the river and sailed to the building boat from the rear, which did not arouse the panic of the people on the ferry.

The seven people were unarmed, and then escorted to the largest building in the middle. When they got on the deck, they saw Huang Qilin chatting with the deputy commander of the navy.

Among the seven of them, only Xiao Rui had seen Huang Qilin, Zhang Liang and the others did not know each other. When Xiao Rui saw that it was Huang Qilin, his pupils narrowed sharply, never expecting that it was Huang Qilin's trap!

He took the opportunity to show his mouth to Zhang Liang and Guo Jia. The two were smart and immediately understood what Xiao Rui meant, and at the same time they were quite surprised.

Huang Qilin turned his head when he heard the sound, and when he saw Xiao Rui and the others, he frowned.

None of the seven people looked like Xiao Rui!

Could it be that he caught the wrong person?

However, the cautious Huang Qilin did not give up, but ordered someone to check the faces of the seven people, and there were no human skin masks.

Fortunately, the seven people were not allowed to wash their faces. Xiao Rui's makeup was all applied by the medicinal powder prepared by Azhu, just like the mysterious makeup technique spread in the Great China in the previous life. camouflage.

Coupled with Xiao Rui's martial arts practice, his body has changed a lot in the past two years, Huang Qilin may not have seen Xiao Rui for a long time.

Huang Qilin asked, "Where did you seven come from, and where are you going?"

Zhang Liang said respectfully: "My lord, the seven of us came from the imperial capital and returned to Dongzang County. My young master's family is still in the county, so I rushed back this time and wanted to pick them up."

"Fahai?" Huang Qilin took the household registration ticket from the soldier and set his eyes on Xiao Rui.

Xiao Rui nodded and said, "It's me, my lord."

Huang Qilin said: "When I was traveling in Zhao State, I passed by the county town of Dongzang County. It seems that there is no legal surname there."

Xiao Rui smiled and said: "Fa surnames are indeed very rare, and Dongzang County is so big, it's normal that you haven't heard of it."

Huang Qilin nodded, his eyes skipped over Xiao Rui, Zhang Liang and Guo Jia, and moved to Dian Wei.

These three people are all smart people, they can't leak their words, and they can't ask anything, so what about this burly guy?
