Chapter 1073: The Ghost Lingers

"Don't worry, after waiting for an hour, the county lord will be able to move freely!"

Throwing the letter on Qin Yingyuan, Gu Chengyu ordered someone to tie up the person who delivered the letter, and then said, "Pack your luggage, let's go!" ”

"Huh? My lord, where are we going? Ming Yan glanced at the black-clothed man in the room, and wondered why the adults were suddenly leaving? So what should these people do?

Gu Chengyu was the first to go out of the house, looking at the dark night sky, the snow outside had stopped, and it didn't affect him when he was in a hurry.

The carriage continued north, and the lanterns on it swayed from side to side as the body shook it.

"My lord, are we still going to the border? The ...... over there in the capital "Mingmo was a little puzzled, the capital was disrupted, and the adults still had to go to the border?"

If the crown prince fails to succeed to the throne, the emperor is replaced, but the adult is far away at the border, wouldn't he lose the opportunity? What's more, the new emperor has no friendship with adults, and maybe he will forget the adults who are far away at the border to investigate the case, which is useless in his career!

"The capital is now in a mess, the prince is fine at the moment, so we don't need to worry. It's just that King Gong's side is a little tricky, maybe the days of civil war are about to begin. Daxing is eyeing Dayan again, and the border will also be chaotic. Once a war starts, it is the people who suffer. ”

Therefore, Gu Chengyu is going to the border pass, if he doesn't suppress the Daxing people who are about to move at the border pass, wouldn't it be chaos on top of chaos?

Once a war starts, taxes are heavier, soldiers are levied, and the people are displaced, aren't the people the ones who suffer?

"Besides, the prince ordered me to go to the border to investigate the case, and it was the queen who came to summon me back today, and it has nothing to do with the prince, so I have no reason to go back to the capital."

The prince didn't let him go back, what did he do when he went back?

Mingmo thought of this, but he was a little surprised, at this juncture, the prince actually sent his own lord to the border pass, wasn't he worried about the situation in the capital and his own safety at all?

Let's not talk about anything else, the martial arts of my own adults are so strong, stay by the prince's side to protect, and the prince can save a little bit, right?

With a sigh, Mingmo shook his head, the twists and turns in the intestines of these superiors, he couldn't understand it.

After walking for more than an hour, Mingmo saw a city gate in front of him, which should be a small county town. It's just that it's not yet dawn, and I can't see the name on the castle tower clearly.

"My lord, do we want to go into this county town to rest?" Mingmo turned his head and asked.

"Not necessarily! Let's rest in the next county! "It wasn't long before I was on the road, and I rested for several hours. Although he is not in a hurry, he can't be like playing in the mountains and rivers, after all, the senior brother is still at the border.

Suddenly, the sound of horses' hooves echoed through the silent night.

The sound of horses' hooves was approaching here, Gu Chengyu frowned, there were many people coming. Listen carefully not only to the sound of horses' hooves, but also to the sound of messy footsteps, listening to the sound is like an army.

He frowned and thought, what's the matter, is there an army coming? But the war hasn't started yet, where is the army?

"My lord, it seems that a lot of people are coming on horseback in the rear, and the speed is extremely fast!" Ming Mo and Ming Yan naturally heard the movement and hurriedly reported to their adults.

Gu Chengyu lifted the curtain and looked behind. They found that although the other party was still some distance away from them, the long dragon of firelight meandered until it reached the corner.

"It's the army, let's get out of the way!" Gu Chengyu had a bad premonition in his heart, it was not yet the time for war, how could there be a night march?

Could it be that which forces have already begun to deploy? No, isn't that the one who can be so unscrupulous now?

Gu Chengyu glanced at the fire dragon again in disbelief, how could he possibly appear here? This is the capital to the north!

"The army? My lord, I didn't hear that the imperial court was going to send troops! "Ming Yan is a little confused, the adults said that there will be war, but the war has not started yet, how can this army travel at night?

Gu Chengyu looked at the two carriages behind him, observed the terrain again, and found that there was only this spacious road here, and the side of the road was all farmland, and the field of vision was very broad.

"Come close, let them pass first! Get in the car and get a coachman to get on the road!" "It's a long way to go to the border pass, but Gu Chengyu has hired five coachmen.

There are many people in the capital who know Mingmo and them, and they all know that Mingmo is their entourage, and it is difficult to ignore them when they sit outside.

He didn't want to fight that guy yet, he just wanted to get to the border in a low-key manner. As for any rebel against the party, it is not something he can do on his own, and he doesn't need to work so hard.

He has never had the spirit of putting his own safety behind and sacrificing himself for others.

The sound of horses' hooves drew nearer, and the light of the torches illuminated the clearing. Gu Chengyu sat in the carriage, as if he could feel the scorching breath of those torches.

"Lord Wang! There are three carriages ahead! Lu Chen drove forward and gave King Gong a hint.

"It's a merchant! Be on your guard, and if there is no unusual behavior, you don't have to pay attention! King Gong took the reins and slowed down the horse.

Although the queen was kidnapped, there are many deserted places along the way, who knows if the prince regrets it at this time? If the crown prince found a subordinater in the wilderness and vowed to eradicate the queen regardless of his life or death, it would not be impossible.

If he is replaced, it will be difficult for him to make up his mind. After the tiger returns to the mountain, it is even more difficult to capture him.

Gu Chengyu had already told the coachman not to panic, just drive the carriage to the side of the road and calm the horses.

Lu Chen glanced at the three carriages, and there were no family emblems on the carriages. Except for the somewhat restrained luxury of the first carriage, the other two were really ordinary.

It's not like a caravan, it's like traveling with luggage. He grasped the hilt of his sword, rode past the carriage, and was relieved to see that the other party had not moved.

"Huh~" Suddenly, Lu Chen thought of something and immediately grabbed the reins.

And King Gong also grabbed the reins at the same time as him, "Stop! ”

With a low shout, the march was interrupted, and the torches illuminated the coachman's face clearly.

The coachman was a little flustered, and he was already a little frightened when he suddenly saw the army, but the young adult behind him insisted that he sit in front.

Originally, this adult was hijacked during the day, and he and the rest of the coachmen didn't want to take the job, but the men in black were stunned and didn't let them go.

Then the lord repeatedly promised that he would protect their lives, and the temptation of twice as much money as before allowed them to continue on their journey.

Who knew that it didn't take long to go, and something happened again, and I really didn't look at the yellow calendar when I went out today!

Originally, seeing that these people ignored them, the coachman was relieved. But at this moment, so many people's eyes were focused on him, and his heart jumped to his throat.

"Master Gu, are you going to enjoy the mountains and rivers?" A low and pleasant male voice with a hidden smile came.

Gu Chengyu stroked his forehead, alas! What a ghost!
