    Chapter 737: Breaking the Bridge with Seven Fists Mu San wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, lifted the car curtain and looked outside.  At this time, we had already left the city for more than twenty miles, and there were only a few pedestrians on the official road.  The old man driving the car was humming some tune, and he looked quite relaxed and content.  But Mu San noticed that his left hand was always in his cuff, as if he was holding something.  What seemed easy was actually not easy. The old man was actually always on guard.  "This senior." Mu San thought for a while, and still used the term "senior" to address the old man: "Senior, what kind of token did you show to the officers and soldiers guarding the gate when you left the city just now? Why was it so effective?" The old man did not answer.  He just threw the token beside him casually.  Mu San quickly caught it, looked at it and then couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth.  What kind of token is this? It's just a numbered wooden sign for the carriage house.  He originally thought that the old man had assumed such an important identity that even the officers and soldiers guarding the gate would avoid him.  But Mu San soon understood why this identity mark of a carriage shop worked.  It seems that the Iron Armored Army was able to hide the murders in Changchun Garden, but as the analysis of Jiu Se Cai speculated, it can be inferred from many details that many people were killed in Changchun Garden.  He could guess it, and so could many people.  In addition, since Yang Jian came to power, many disobedient people in Chang'an City have been killed by him.  There are more than a dozen families that have been wiped out. Which family doesn¡¯t have at least a few hundred people?  Most of the people who died in Changchun Garden were buried on the spot, but after all, there was no room for everyone.  The bodies of those courtiers and family members who were executed would be transported outside the city and buried at will.  This kind of thing is never done by the government, but the government hires carriages from carriage houses to transport the bodies.  The Iron Armored Army only kills people and doesn't care about burying them.  People in the yamen didn't want to have blood on their hands, so they left it to the horse racing agency.  Therefore, the wooden sign with the carriage number in the old man¡¯s hand is as useful as the customs clearance diploma.  It is extremely difficult to get the token of the Iron Armored Army, but it is easy for them to get a wooden sign with the number of the horse and carriage shop.  Precisely because so many people had died in the city in the past year, the officers and soldiers guarding the gate had become accustomed to people carrying corpses out one by one, so the smell of blood in the car did not make them suspicious.  Mu San found that his brain was a little weak. He thought it would be difficult to leave the city. Who thought it would be so easy?  But then I thought about it, I thought it was too complicated.  The strength of the Iron Armored Army is limited, and the people below also hate the Iron Armored Army. Who will serve the Iron Armored Army loyally?  What¡¯s more, who would have thought that someone would steal the princess away.  So he smiled in relief, and his worries became lighter.  What he didn¡¯t know was that while he was talking to the old man, the city gatekeeper suddenly thought of something and looked outside the city. The carriage had already gone twenty miles, so naturally he couldn¡¯t see it.  "Something's wrong" He rubbed his temples and murmured to himself: "I haven't heard of any family being slaughtered again recently. Besides, that man has already led his troops out of Chang'an. He might have reached the Yangtze River at this time. He's not here.  , Who dares to kill people indiscriminately? " He automatically ignored the little emperor. Although he didn't know that the little emperor was dead, he knew that the little emperor was nothing in Chang'an City now, and his rights had long been taken away.  Since the Iron Armored General is not in Chang'an City, who would kill people for no reason?  His family lives just over Caishikou, and he has not seen any executions in the past few days.  "Come here, please go to the Yamen and ask them to check whether there are carriages out of the city to transport corpses!" He ordered, and one of his soldiers reluctantly agreed and turned around and walked towards the city.  The soldier muttered as he walked, thinking that it would be useless for you to be so devoted to your duty at this time.  At such an age, even if something suspicious is discovered, it won't be considered a big achievement, and the superiors might scold him and let him go.  At that time, if you can¡¯t get any credit, you will still be guilty!  The more he thought about it, the more depressed he became, so he simply found a secluded tavern alone, ordered two side dishes, warmed a pot of wine, drank for half an hour, and then found a place in the back kitchen of the tavern to take a nap.  , told the owner of the tavern to wake him up at about that hour, and went back to resume his life when it was almost dark, rubbing his sleepy eyes.  The gate guard asked him what took him so long. He casually said that the people in the Yamen didn't care at all. He wanted to see Mr. Fu Yin but could only wait outside. As a result, he didn't see him until now. He reported and came back.  The city gate guard then scolded the people in Chang'an Mansion one by one, saying to himself that I had already done what I was responsible for, so it didn't matter.  But he vaguely felt that the carriage was unusual. It had been out for a long time Why didn't you come back?  Mu San didn¡¯t know how long the half-day the soldier had bought for them because of his laziness was.?Precious.  When they arrived at Fort Thirty Miles south of the city, Mu San got off the carriage and hugged the old man: "Although I don't know your senior's surname, since you are helping me, you must be a friend of the general, so please be sure to  Send Her Royal Highness safely to the southwest. I have to go back to Chang'an City. If I leave, this matter will be exposed." This matter was done by someone who kept it secret.  Jiu Se Cai is still in Chang'an City. If Mu San doesn't go back, Jiu Se Cai will definitely become suspicious.  Moreover, Yan Kuang was still in the city, so Mu San had to go back and discuss with him what to do next.  Mu San just didn't expect that his decision to go back would prevent him from coming out for a long time. Not only him, but Yan Kuang also couldn't leave Chang'an City.  Until The old man smiled at Mu San and said: "Go back, you still need to continue acting in some scenes. Since Fang Jie has found us, it is natural that he can trust us. As for those people he cannot trust, you still need to be steady."  "Stay." "Thank you!" Mu San thanked her solemnly, then opened the curtain and said to Yang Qinyan: "Don't worry, your highness, these are all experts arranged by the general. I will go back to Chang'an City without any problems."  , some things still need to be dealt with. Moreover, it is not just the general who wants to rescue you, but there are others who also want to rescue you with another purpose. But the general really wants to save you, and others.  But I want to control youI have to go back and continue to pretend that I didn't rescue you, otherwise I will be exposed soon." Yang Qinyan nodded hard: "Yoube careful."  "Thank you for your concern, Your Highness." Mu San clasped his fists, then subconsciously looked at the other two people in the carriage.  The young woman still held the bamboo basket with squinted eyes, and the scholar still read with his head lowered.  "Farewell!"    Chang'an City Binyue Inn The drunken man was pacing back and forth in the room in boredom, his brows furrowed a little.  He calculated the time. In the past, the young eunuch Mu San had never been out for more than two hours, but today Mu San had already been out for a day.  Therefore, he had previously ordered that if Mu San did not come back before dark, everyone must disperse and evacuate and cannot stay in Binyue Inn.  ¡°If Mu San was caught, he wouldn¡¯t believe how strict the little eunuch¡¯s mouth was.  However, he did not doubt that Mu San wanted to send the princess away without telling him.  He never thought that Fang Jie not only sent a group of them back to Chang'an.  Just when his patience was about to run out and he was coming down from upstairs to leave Binyue Inn, he happened to see a somewhat haggard Mu San coming in from the outside. The two looked at each other, and then turned around and walked upstairs.  Mu San felt slightly nervous, took a breath and then went upstairs.  "Why does it take so long today?" asked the drunken woman.  "You smell it." Mu San stretched out his arm to let Liuse Caiwen: "I lay down in the smelly ditch for two hours before I found a chance to go in. I don't know what happened today. There seem to be a lot more guards in Changchun Garden.  It¡¯s too difficult to find a chance to get in. ¡°How is your contact with the princess?¡± Jiusecai took a step back, as if he couldn¡¯t bear the smell of Mu San.  "The princess still doesn't dare and doesn't want to leave Chang'an." Mu San sighed and said, "She insists on letting the general lead troops to Chang'an. What should we do?" "Damn it!" Jiuxiancai couldn't help but cursed: "Yeah.  I just can¡¯t get in. If I can get in, I¡¯ll tie her up and take her away. What time has it been? She¡¯s still acting like a princess!¡± Just as he was talking, he suddenly heard a commotion on the street, and the drunken man¡¯s expression changed.  He quickly went over and opened the window to take a look.  I saw a group of five hundred armored soldiers running past on the street, frightening the pedestrians on the road to avoid them.  ¡°What happened?¡± Mu San leaned over to take a look and asked.  "I feel like something big has happened." Jiusecai murmured: "It's time for us to move to another place to live. I always feel uneasy! Before you came back, a group of armored troops had already passed by, as well as a large number of government officials from Chang'an Mansion. I  Look, there are a few masters among them." Mu San was shocked. When he came back, he deliberately made a big circle and went around to another city gate, so he didn't encounter the army.  "I hope it's okay" Mu San prayed in his heart, feeling that his heart would be very heavy, and he could not breathe due to the pressure.  ¡­ ¡­ ¡­ ¡­ The old man driving the carriage whipped his whip to drive the carriage faster.??, the horse was in pain, neighed, and then spread its hooves and ran wildly.  Not far ahead is the Meng River, which is a relatively large river in Gyeonggi Province and can be regarded as a defense outside Chang'an City. Although the river is not very wide, the current is very fast.  There is a stone bridge built during the Taizong period. It has been more than a hundred years but is still strong.  When the carriage was approaching the stone bridge, the old man's expression suddenly changed. He looked back and saw a cloud of smoke gradually approaching from behind.  "Fortunately" He said to the people in the carriage: "The Meng River is ahead. If we are caught up before crossing the Meng River, it will be difficult for us to escape. If these people had noticed half an hour earlier, we would have been in trouble.  " He didn't know that there was an insignificant gatekeeper who was destined not to appear in the annals of history, delaying them for half a day.  "I'll do it." The young woman holding the bamboo basket in the carriage handed the basket to the eldest princess Yang Qinyan. Yang Qinyan subconsciously took it. The young woman smiled at her and said: "This is the only bridge within a hundred miles.  Just go over. If the pursuers want to go around the bridge and catch up, it will take at least two more days. Two days is enough for us to go far." Yang Qinyan nodded, but couldn't help but think about it.  Why did the pursuers bypass the stone bridge?  Then she saw the young woman jump off the carriage. After the carriage passed, she walked slowly onto the stone bridge. When she saw that the pursuers were about to arrive, she suddenly punched the bridge and the earth seemed to be shaken.  As if, the carriage compartment let out an overwhelmed groan.  Immediately afterwards, with the young woman¡¯s fist as the center, the cracks on the stone bridge surface spread in all directions.  The next second, the bridge suddenly cracked open, and huge stones fell down and sank into the river, causing huge waves to splash.  How could that frail young woman have so much power in her fists?  The bridge deck was smashed and collapsed. The young woman floated backwards and landed one more punch, then floated back again. Just like that, with seven consecutive punches, the entire stone bridge collapsed!  Yang Qinyan opened her mouth wide, unable to believe that what she saw was real.  "Although we have come, the danger will come next." The young scholar who lowered his head to read said in a calm tone: "The bridge is broken and the army cannot get through, but it cannot stop the great cultivators above the ninth grade"
