The wind in the sky was so strong that it blew the dust on the wide land at the city gate into the shape of a small tornado.

Pei Chun threw the paper written with a brush into the sky.

The paper was blown up and down by the monster-like wind in the sky, and it was reluctant to fall to the ground.

On his way back, Pei Chun took out the mask he had put aside.

He was riding alone on the horse, frowning in deep thought, and his expression was not very good.

Behind her, not too far away, there was a carriage.

After Pei Chun threw the paper away, he looked up and saw the fragile papers flying in the sky.

As it keeps turning, you can vaguely see some black words on it.

She moved her fingers, and the thin thread hidden in her sleeves flew out immediately. With the help of the wind, the thin thread pierced through the back of the paper like a hook.

He then pulled down the paper that had been blown into pieces by the wind.

The whole process was so fast that it was hard to see clearly.

Gu Chen, who was lying in the carriage, took a look through the small open window at the side and felt that in the blink of an eye, the paper flying in the sky changed its position.

But when Pei Chun pulled the piece of paper that was blown into pieces by the wind with a thin thread and passed it through the small tornado that had formed a vortex, there was no sign of it breaking, not even a scratch on a small corner.

He only took a glance and then looked away.

He is Gu Chen, who was assassinated, poisoned and mute, and the left half of his body cannot move.

Previously, when he had secretly visited Zhao State and sneaked back to Western Xinjiang quietly, he had just stepped into the residence of his trusted subordinate when he was betrayed and assassinated by the trusted subordinate.

He was given the most terrible poison in the world.

When he sneaked into the State of Zhao, in order to avoid being discovered, only that confidant and Fifteen knew his itinerary.

Naturally, I also know that he didn't have any extra secret guards with him.

Unfortunately, Gu Chen was too credulous and was easily poisoned.

Later, he tried his best to avoid being hunted down, but unfortunately he was poisoned for too long, and now the left side of his body is stiff and he has become mute.

He simply had no ability to go back to Xinjiang and compete with those court officials in a battle of wits and courage.

So Fifteen tried his best to bring him to his brother.

He and Fifteen sneaked along the border and hid in the dense forest. They avoided the pursuit and search and escaped to the wild land adjacent to the State of Yan.

The moment he saw his brother and sister-in-law, he really relaxed a lot.

But he really couldn't return to Xinjiang to take charge of the situation.

If he returned to Western Xinjiang so rashly, the government, which was already unstable due to his seizure of the throne, would surely become turbulent again.

So he begged his brother to take his place and go to Xijiang to serve as the King of Xijiang for a period of time.

Let his brother help him go back to Xinjiang and hold on for a while.

Just don’t let those jackals, tigers and leopards take back the throne that the two brothers have fought so hard to seize.

He also left Fifteen to his brother as an assistant.

Gu Chen’s sudden visit.

This made Pei Chun, who was already lagging behind his three brothers, slow down even more.

She simply changed her route and headed for a city near the wilderness.

He found a broker and bought a strong and honest servant to take care of Gu Chen, who was half-paralyzed in bed.

Pei Chun used his fingertips to stroke the small hole on the paper pierced by the thin thread.

This piece of paper is the indenture of the honest servant behind him.

Although Pei Chun was looking at the indenture in her hand, all she could think about was Gu Yuan, and how he looked with red eyes when he was pulled away by Fifteen when they parted ways.

At that time, Gu Yuan was full of surprise when he saw Gu Chen.

It turned out that his brother was half-paralyzed because of a conspiracy, and there was only anger and a burning desire for revenge in his eyes.

Pei Chun himself also has brothers and sisters, and they can best understand his feelings.

So she wanted to go back to Western Xinjiang with Gu Yuan, and let Gu Chen and his second brother go back to Zhao State alone to recuperate.

The result was unprecedented.

It was Gu Yuan, with red eyes, who took the initiative to reject her request.

Gu Yuan's eyes were full of reluctance at the time, but his tone was very firm. He said, "Ming Cheng, the situation in Western Xinjiang is complicated, and there are Gu Masters in every family and palace.

If those Gu-controllers were not blind, they would be able to see what a powerful Gu worm the Xiaobai that Mingcheng was carrying was.

If it is not necessary, Mingcheng should not take the initiative to go to Western Xinjiang."

There are already many jackals and tigers in the Western Frontier, and the government is unstable. If Mingcheng falls victim to someone's greed, he will certainly be unable to deal with it.

What's more... he was not sure he could protect Mingcheng in Western Xinjiang.

But if Mingcheng stayed in Zhao State, at least she would have her brother and parents by her side, protecting her from any harm.

Xiaobai is the sacred object of his mother, the Su family. In Western Xinjiang, the blood of the Su family is a hot commodity that can improve the quality of the poisonous insects.

But if Mingcheng brought Xiaobai with him, there would be no large number of poisonous insects to protect him.

That was to tell the surrounding Gu-controllers that Ming Cheng had obtained a treasure for free.

Like a baby strolling around a busy city with gold in his arms.

Just waiting for the surrounding Gu-controllers to come and fight for it.

Therefore, Gu Yuan refused to let Pei Chun follow him no matter what.

But he was still worried, so he gave Xiaohong to Pei Chun to take care of.

Pei Chun thought about it and understood Gu Yuan's concerns, so even though he was reluctant, he had no choice but to let Gu Yuan go to Western Xinjiang alone to help Gu Chen stabilize the situation.

But even though I thought this way, the reluctance in my heart still surged up.

Pei Chun sighed, channeled his inner strength into his fingertips, and flicked the soft paper into the ancient carriage.

The honest servant was surprised when he saw the paper falling into his hand.

He turned sideways and looked at Pei Chun outside the carriage: "Miss, what do you mean?"

Pei Chun waved his hand while sitting on the slow-moving horse: "None of the servants of our Pei family have death contracts.

Everyone works for one month and receives one month's salary.

Take back your death contract and serve the person in front of you well.

Save up enough money and pay me back the money I paid for you. If you want to leave, you can leave anytime."

The honest servant's eyes suddenly burst into surprise. He looked at Pei Chun's back in disbelief, then looked down at the indenture contract in his hand.

And Pei Chun’s words just now didn’t seem false.

She burst into tears of joy, knelt on the carriage, kowtowed in the direction of Pei Chun, and then kowtowed to Gu Chen, constantly expressing her gratitude.

"Thank you, Miss, and thank you, Mr.!"

"Miss, please give me a name, Sir, please give me a name!"

Pei Chun was in the front and heard the noise from behind clearly. He was just about to ask Gu Chen to help him get one.

But suddenly he remembered that he had been poisoned and was mute, and couldn't speak at all.

Pei Chun thought about it carefully before turning around and saying, "You should be called the same name from now on."

The honest-looking servant immediately began to kowtow again with gratitude.

Pei Chun shrugged helplessly, lifted the mask that was loosely placed on his chin and covered his mouth.

Look up and look into the distance.

In the sky, a snow-white carrier pigeon flapped its wings, adjusted its angle, and descended rapidly from the sky.

For some reason, she suddenly had a bad feeling in her heart.
