……

Zhen Suhang was reviewing manuscripts in his study when the servant beside him brought him a letter.

"Boss, there's a letter coming to the door." The servant handed the letter over. "The man said he was from Wumen and came to deliver a letter from Lord Dunxin, and specifically wanted it to be delivered to you, boss."

"Oh." Zhen Suhang opened the envelope, "Have you seen that person?"

"I've seen him. He's the one who came to the door looking for Master Gu before." said the servant.

"It's him! It's okay, you can go down." Zhen Suhang nodded.

The letter was written in Gu Yue's handwriting, which was very familiar to him. Zhen Suhang could read ten lines at a glance.

His expression gradually became solemn.

The letter said: Old Su, no more nonsense, I already know the rumors in Luoyang, please spread the news secretly immediately, saying that the so-called gay affair was all done by Dun Xinbo alone, and that I forced Gu Xu, and Gu Xu could no longer tolerate it, and cooperated with all the previous bad deeds... In short, discredit me, the darker the better, and get Gu Xu out of it. It would be better to write a miserable story, such as the death of both parents at a young age, the abuse of many times by the devilish adoptive father, and Gu Xu endured the humiliation until now, and finally got an official position through his own efforts (but make sure to say that Gu Xu is still innocent). I have my own way to deal with the rest, don't worry! Hurry up!

The last three words were enlarged and bolded, showing Gu Yue's urgency.

The second piece of paper read: PS: If there is any news of my death later, don't panic, it's all fake. You just need to take advantage of the opportunity to create momentum, saying that Gu Xu finally avenged what happened in the past and killed Gu Dashi, the instigator. In short, he should be great and glorious, without any black material. Thank you very much! When I come back, I will treat you to a good meal, any restaurant you want!

There is also ink on the back: PPS: Don’t tell Gu Xu, I will explain it myself.

After reading this, Zhen Suhang was stunned for a long time.

Is this a death escape?

Is it reliable?

Zhen Suhang's heart was pounding.

He was a little happy because it seemed that Gu Yue was not affected by the rumors and was still thinking about how to break the impasse. He was more worried that he would fail to escape and something unexpected would happen.

No, no!

Zhen Suhang is a smart man. Over the past few years, all the things that happened to "Gu Dashi" have made him certain of one thing - he was not born in a simple imaginary world, but in a novel, and this "Gu Dashi" and Gu Xu are the protagonists of the novel.

With the halo of the protagonist, there will usually be no problems.

Zhen Suhang had no ambition to become the protagonist, he was just happy. No wonder his bookstore was thriving and he himself owned a mansion and a lot of money. It turned out that he had already clung to the protagonist's thigh!

How cool!

Zhen Suhang shook his head.

This matter...is not something that a supporting character like him can stop.

But what about Gu Xu, does he agree too?

Zhen Suhang immediately thought that the letter was sent by someone from Wumen. How could they not know the extent to which Gu Xu took care of Gu Yue?

According to gossip, Gu Xu, who was "detained" in the palace, went south yesterday to investigate a case on the emperor's orders.

Both of them went to the South, and I think they would meet and deal with this matter together.

Zhen Suhang complained in his heart. He had already asked Wumen's people to deliver the letter, and he still said something about not telling Gu Xu. What a waste of ink. How stupid!

Shaking his head, Zhen Suhang evaluated the feasibility of this plan in his mind, raised his head and said to the outside: "Someone come! Call all the heads of the public opinion department over for an emergency meeting!"

……

On Gu Yue's side, Su Muying ordered people to pack their luggage after daybreak, and the convoy set off again.

The carriage was very bumpy on the journey, but Gu Yue was already accustomed to such a rush. In addition, he did not sleep well at night, so under the care of Shi San opposite, he had a good sleep.

After having lunch in the bumpy car, Gu Yue was still sleepy, so he fell asleep again.

Unfortunately, he didn't sleep for long before Shi San woke him up.

Gu Yue opened his eyes reluctantly: "What's wrong?"

As soon as he opened his mouth, he realized that it was dark all around him. Night had already fallen. Gu Yue looked out of the window of the carriage and saw that the carriage seemed to have deviated from the official road and was running in an unknown direction. The light of the convoy in front of him could no longer be seen.

"The convoy just split off a fork in the road. It's far ahead and we've gone off the track." Shi San tried to explain the current situation. "Action?"

His heart skipped a beat. Gu Yue suddenly recalled the scenes in movies, TV shows, and novels where the driver was secretly replaced and taken to a remote place to be slaughtered. Adding to that the incident with Wu Fei… he made a prompt decision: “Control the driver!”

Shi San immediately rushed out of the carriage.

After a violent jolt, the horse seemed to run wildly for two steps, and then quickly stopped. Gu Yue had already drawn the short knife he brought with him. Shi San and Gu Xu had trained him for nearly three years, and although the effect was still poor... it was not zero.

Combined with Gu Dashi's heavy weight, it is enough for self-defense.

Before Shi San could open his mouth to confirm the safety of the surroundings, a surprised voice was heard outside the carriage.

"Is there someone so skilled around Lord Gu? You really underestimated us. We have no ill intentions. We are following His Majesty's orders to ask Lord Gu to do something else. Could you please let the driver go, brave man?"

The driver was also outside, crying and begging for mercy: "I was just following orders, I don't know anything! I have old people to take care of and young children to take care of, wuwuwuwu..."

Gu Yue hesitated for a moment whether to get off the car.

He was really scared! One Wuyang wasn't enough, another one?

But if Shi San was left alone outside, he would not be able to do such a thing.

Holding the dagger across his body in a defensive posture, he whispered, "Shi San?"

"Yeah." Shi San responded from outside.

Gu Yue walked out of the car.

He leaned against the carriage and looked around vigilantly. Shi San held the driver in front of him and looked to the left rear of the carriage.

A man dressed in black walked out of the darkness and came to the area illuminated by the lanterns on the four corners of the carriage. When he saw the posture of Gu Yue and the others, he immediately smiled: "Master Gu is quite vigilant. It seems that you also realize that the situation is not in your favor now?"

What do you mean? Gu Yue did not answer rashly.

This man just said that he came here on the orders of the Emperor... Whether it is true or not is still unknown, but judging from his clothes in the light of the lantern, they look like the attire of the Hidden Dragon Guards.

The Hidden Dragon Guards, the royal spearhead troops and special killers, Tang Wuling is one of them.

The Hidden Dragon Guard said, "I am the leader of the Hidden Dragon Guard Division B, my name is Shen Wumou. This is my badge."

He threw the badge over, and Shi San grabbed it.

Gu Yue took a quick glance and it seemed to be not much different from the ball that Tang Wuling took out that year.

Shen Wumou, this name has too much of a martial arts vibe to it. The same goes for Tang Wuling, he sounds like a character from a martial arts novel.

Gu Yue wanted to ask about his relationship with Tang Wuling, but he didn't know whether Tang Wuling and Wen Qing were still cooperating. If he rashly mentioned it, would it cause unexpected consequences?
