In addition to Hu Che'er's sudden disappearance, another incident happened outside Chang'an City.

It took almost a month for Wu Cheng's convoy to finally arrive at Chang'an City.

Looking at the majestic Chang'an City from a distance, Wu Cheng also breathed a sigh of relief, finally arrived.

Marry Liu Zhang, and then return to Shu with Liu Zhang.

Although the journey back and forth is indeed long and the mountain road is bumpy, it is worthwhile to suffer a little to achieve the goal.

Gan Ning was not in Wu Cheng's convoy, but Liu Yan sent someone to escort Gan Ning to Chang'an.

Knowing Gan Ning's bravery, Liu Yan didn't arrest him head-on, but resorted to some unsightly means.

Gan Ning didn't know that Liu Yan was going to deal with him. When he learned that Liu Yan invited him to drink, he went happily.

Moreover, Gan Ning even thought that Liu Yan knew about his talent and planned to reuse him.

But who would have thought that after drinking half of the wine, Gan Ning's eyes went black and he passed out.

When Gan Ning woke up again, he was already in a prison cart, his hands and feet were shackled.

"Lord Zhou Mu, I don't know what crime Gan Ning committed, why did you treat me like this?"

Liu Yan turned back his amiable look when he was drinking, and said lightly: "Xingba, it's not that I want to treat you like this, but that you killed people who shouldn't be killed when you were killing people and stealing money."

In the past, when people killed people and robbed goods?
Killed someone who shouldn't have been killed?

Gan Ning was startled, and asked, "I don't know who the lord is referring to?"

Liu Yan said indifferently: "General Zhengbei, Champion Marquis, one of the Nine Ministers of the current dynasty, holding Jinwuhuayuhuaziwing."

Hua Yu Hua Ziyi?
Gan Ning was even more taken aback. He had heard of Hua Yu's reputation, but Hua Yu was from Xiliang, and he had been active in Yizhou, so the two had no intersection at all.

Liu Yan didn't bother to talk to Gan Ning, so he said lightly: "Gan Xingba, if you are not convinced, it's not too late to talk to Hua Yu when you arrive in Chang'an City in the future."

"For the sake of stability in Yizhou, this old man has no choice but to make a bad move."

"Otherwise, once Chang'an sends troops to the south, I don't know how many people will die in this battle because of you."

After all, Liu Yan immediately sent someone to escort Gan Ning to the road.

Then, Liu Yan immediately promulgated the prefectural edict, mentioning Gan Ning's previous murder case and arresting him.

Come back to Wu Cheng again.

Just when Wu Cheng thought he was about to reach Chang'an City safely, a group of cavalry suddenly came from a distance, about 20 people, all of them were wearing armor and weapons.

This group of cavalry came close and immediately surrounded Wu Cheng's convoy.

A man who looked like a general shouted, "Where are you from?"

Wu Cheng's convoy was small, only a dozen or so people.

There are two coachmen and only 12 guards.

The leader of the guards took a step forward, cupped his hands and said: "This general, this villain is under the command of Liu Zhoumu of Yizhou, and was ordered to escort Miss Wu to Chang'an to marry the Fourth Young Master. I would like to ask the general to make it easier."

The general looked arrogant, and snorted coldly: "Miss Wu? What Miss Wu, I don't know."

"How can I know if you are spies sent by Yizhou?"

The guard leader's face changed slightly, and he hurriedly explained again: "Back to the general, the villain dare not lie. If the general doesn't believe it, he can go into Chang'an City with the villain and ask my fourth son to find out."

"The fourth son of my family is named Liu Zhang, and he is currently the captain of Fengche."

The general snorted coldly: "I don't know Liu Zhang or Lieutenant Fengche."

"Recently, my general got the news that the spies from Yizhou wanted to sneak into Chang'an and take Liu Yan's son back to Shu. Could it be you?"

"Ah..." The guard leader was taken aback, "I wonder if your general is..."

"Hmph, my family's general is the general who conquered the north, the champion, and the general who holds Jin Wu Hua Yu Hua."

After that, the general waved his hand and shouted: "Brothers, these people must be spies from Yizhou. Kill them all and leave no one behind."

After all, the spear in the general's hand stabbed suddenly, hitting the neck of the guard leader, killing him.

The rest of the cavalry also started to attack, slashing at the guards with their knives.

After a while, Wu Cheng's guards and the groom driving the carriage were all killed.

Although Wu Yi is a general, his martial arts are not strong, and Wu Cheng is not a weak woman like Sun Shangxiang.

Hearing the shouts of killing outside, Wu Cheng trembled with fright, wondering if her guards could keep her safe.

When the shouting and killing stopped, Wu Cheng felt even less confident.

"Wow", the door curtain of the carriage was roughly lifted, and a man who looked like a general glanced at her, and his eyes lit up immediately: "Hahaha, she really is a beauty."

"Wonderful, the champion Hou likes beautiful women the most. Let's present this beauty, and the champion Hou will definitely reward you a lot."

Wu Cheng was shocked, and hurriedly said, "No, I'm Liu Zhang's fiancée..."

Before Wu Cheng could finish speaking, the general sneered and said flatly, "What is Liu Zhang?

"In Chang'an City, Champion Hou can easily crush him to death. If you dare to resist, Liu Zhang will only die faster."

"Ah..." Wu Cheng was dumbfounded immediately, and dared to say nothing, and was obediently driven into a carriage by a Xiliang soldier into Chang'an City.

Wu Cheng didn't dare to open the curtain, so naturally he didn't know where he went.

By the time the carriage stopped, it was already an hour later.

Immediately, the general's voice sounded again: "Miss Wu, get off the carriage."

Wu Cheng's heartbeat accelerated a lot, but he didn't dare to refuse, so he got off the carriage tremblingly.

The carriage stopped at the gate of a yard. Looking from the gate, the yard was not too big, with only three main rooms.

At the gate of the courtyard, besides her and the general, there were two Xiliang soldiers driving the carriage outside.

At this time, a middle-aged servant woman came from the yard, looked Wu Cheng up and down, and said lightly, "Follow me."

Wu Cheng didn't dare to disobey, and followed the maid into the yard.

As the servant walked, she said indifferently: "With Champion Marquis' temper, if you can fall in love with you, you can stay in Champion Marquis' mansion."

"Otherwise, the champion will reward you to the soldiers under his command. The feeling is that you can't survive or die."

Wu Cheng was so frightened that she shuddered, and she could guess what would happen if she was rewarded to the soldiers under her command by touching her toes.

So, a ridiculous idea popped into Wu Cheng's mind, begging the heavens to let Hua Yu take a liking to me.

The maid led Wu Cheng to the side room, and said calmly, "You stay here for the time being, and when the champion finishes his official duties, he will naturally come here to see your beauty."

"If you can be favored by the champion, you can enter the champion's mansion as a maid, otherwise, hehe..."

Before she finished speaking, the maid turned and left, and locked the door outside when she went out.

Wu Cheng almost fainted, even if Hua Yu took a fancy to her, would she just be a maid?
