Traveling through ancient times: daily life on the run

Chapter 134 The Escaped White Tiger

Prince Ning's troops moved at a leisurely pace.

Except for special periods when someone would take Baihu and the lackey to squat, they were on the road all the time.

If we hurry, we can reach the largest Wanjiang Wharf at noon on the third day. Wanjiang Wharf is located outside a city called Lezhu County. Although it is a small county, due to its highly developed waterways, a large amount of goods are shipped from various states and to various state capitals, which directly brings Lezhu County to a more prosperous level.

Zhu Jinyou planned to wait for Miss Qin and the other girl to meet up in Lezhu County.

Little did he know that Baihu and Gouzi had already plotted an escape plan.

I originally planned to wait for them to go to the toilet after dark the next day and then take the opportunity to sneak into the woods and run away.

However, when it was almost You time, the person who had scouted the way ahead returned to report to King Ning.

"Your Highness Prince Ning, there is a group of people waiting on the official road ahead. They appear to be from the Imperial City Bureau."

Zhu Jinyou was secretly surprised that they were stuck in traffic in advance. It seemed that Ye Yucheng had found out something.

Are you also suspicious of Zhu Jinyou?

According to Ye Yucheng's impartial character, even King Ning would not give him any face, and he would check everything according to the rules.

It seems that this white tiger is in great danger.

Zhu Jinyou was not afraid of being found out. He would just have to explain that Baihu was caught on the road. Presumably, his brother the emperor knew that he was a careless person and would not mind if he was not sent back to the imperial city in time.

But Miss Qin’s side is not particularly easy to explain.

Baihu and Gouzi mumbled a lot of things, saying that they had to escape to the woods before being discovered by the people from the Imperial City Bureau. There were no forests nearby, but there was a forest ten kilometers in the direction they came from, and behind the forest was a mountain range running east-west.

She and the dog could only run back.

The carriage was about to arrive at the Imperial City Office.

The only way Zhu Jinyou could think of was to cheat his way through, but he didn't expect the dog to suddenly come out of the car and bark wildly.

The people from the Imperial City Bureau were all on alert and ready to besiege them, and Zhu Jinyou broke out in a sweat on his forehead.

He has never met such a stupid teammate before. It's so disappointing.

Baihu naturally hoped that she would be discovered by the people from the Imperial City Bureau when she escaped, otherwise how could she prove that she was completely free.

She immediately got out of the car, raised her head and let out a fierce tiger roar that was deafening.

All the horses began to get in disorder, and their hooves became restless.

Ye Yucheng was secretly shocked. This was what Yan Xuan and his group of pursuers had said, that the white tiger could control animals.

He immediately asked everyone to dismount and tie the horses to trees on the side of the road.

Baihu and the lackeys had no time to wait for them, so they jumped off the carriage and ran back.

The people from the Imperial City Bureau watched Baihu and his lackeys slip away. Some guards who didn't believe in evil rode their horses to chase them, but they didn't expect that the horses completely ignored their commands, had disordered paces, and ran directly to the left and right sides of the official road.

Zhu Jinyou, upon seeing this scene from behind the curtain, was secretly surprised that this White Tiger wasn't as simple as understanding human nature. No wonder the Imperial City Division had to capture it and bring it back to the court. Now that Ye Yucheng had discovered that the White Tiger had escaped from his grasp, if Ye reported it to his superiors without concealment, it seemed he would be condemned by his brother, the Emperor.

So, take the initiative.

"Ye Yucheng, the city envoy, what is your crime for scaring off the white tiger?"

Zhu Jinyou lowered the curtain, his voice low but intimidating.

Ye Yucheng was secretly shocked, knowing that he had met the powerful and cunning Prince Ning, and he had no way to defend himself.

So he immediately accepted the blame.

"It was my fault. I heard a few days ago that the White Tiger was roaming around Liangzhou City, so I planned to capture it. I didn't expect that the White Tiger had already been captured by His Royal Highness Prince Ning. This is why I made a mistake and alerted the enemy."

"Well, that's good to know! Now that White Tiger has escaped, it's not so easy to recapture him. I originally found someone capable of persuading White Tiger to follow me for a while, and then I would find a way to send White Tiger back to the capital, but I didn't expect you to disturb White Tiger. Ye Chengshi, you just saw that White Tiger is spiritual. It is absolutely impossible for you to capture him, lock him up, and take him back to the capital."

In the past, no one believed this kind of nonsense.

But Ye Yucheng had read the letter written to him by Yan Xuan, and he had indeed seen the white tiger coming out of the carriage without imprisoning it. Could it be that it was really frightened by Yan Xuan and his men that it chose to escape?

Ye Yucheng was also secretly surprised when he learned that the girls were the ones who brought Baihu into the city. Although Yan Xuan didn't say which girls they were, he knew that the two girls would definitely find a way to find someone else to help take Baihu away, and he estimated that they would also try to fool Yan Xuan, a fool. That's why he ordered his men to wait on the official road heading south.

This small road near the official road is not suitable for carriages, so it has become the only way for all carriages to pass. If you wait there, you will always meet people who want to send Baihu back to the south.

But I didn't expect that this person would be His Royal Highness Prince Ning.

He also took the initiative.

Ye Yucheng had no intention of arguing with King Ning about winning or losing. He now considered himself unlucky, so he said goodbye to King Ning in a hurry and took a group of people to chase the fleeing White Tiger.

"Envoy Ye, there is a forest ten kilometers ahead of us. If the white tiger enters the forest, it may be difficult to find it."

"If we can't catch him alive, dead ones will do! Let's go!" Ye Yucheng's voice was cold and ruthless, with a chilling light in his eyes.

Only after seeing the people from the Imperial City Bureau go far away did Zhu Jinyou let the team move forward slowly.

The corners of his mouth curled up unconsciously. This White Tiger hadn't just thought of escaping upon seeing the Imperial City Division. Perhaps they had been planning their escape from the very beginning. This White Tiger truly wasn't as simple as understanding human nature. If they could capture it, they'd better catch it alive.

The secret between Baihu and Qin Luohong and Qin Bingrui may be very interesting.

Seeing Zhu Jinyou silent, Song Si suddenly asked, "Master, will the white tiger really escape into the forest and return to nature?"

"Hmph. Just wait and see. One day, Baihu will be with Miss Qin and the others."

"Why? Will Baihu go find Miss Qin and the others on his own?"

"It's hard to say. Maybe Miss Qin and the others can always find the White Tiger, so they trust me with it."

Zhu Jinyou didn't know the reason, but he felt that the two girls treated Baihu like friends who were very familiar with each other.

How did they find the White Tiger? Or why did the White Tiger travel with them?

Could they truly be the chosen ones? Were the rumors within the royal family true? The white tiger represented authority and power, capable of unleashing chaos upon the world? While the two girls possessed some power, the idea that a white tiger could unleash chaos upon the world was simply a bluff.

It would be funny if the great Darong Dynasty was afraid of rumors about two women and a big white tiger.

"Master, should we still wait for Miss Qin and the others in Lezhu County ahead?"

"Wait two days. If they still haven't arrived, send someone to look for them."

The White Tiger can be lost, but the two Miss Qin must not be lost.
