Urgent report at the border? !The panic-stricken people who stood there began to get nervous. Because the postman who sent the battle report galloped past on a horse, they couldn't see whether the man's face was happy or worried, so they couldn't guess. , Is this battle report a victory report, or...

Inside the palace.

There was a terrified roar in the hall: "What did you say? The border has been lost?"

Emperor Sheng stood up abruptly, looking in shock at the messenger in the posthouse who had brought the bad news.

The postman was full of grief, knelt on the top of the hall, lowered his head and held up the battle report with both hands, choked up and said: "Yes, and the soldiers of the border generals were slaughtered."

Emperor Sheng's eyes darkened, he staggered, almost fell, An Yuan quickly supported him, and said worriedly: "Your Majesty, be careful."

"What did I send the army to eat? The border was lost?" Emperor Cheng pushed Anyuan away, supported the emperor's case with both hands, and stared at the postman delivering the letter, with an ugly expression on his face.

"Dajun, the army is one day late!" The postman said in a trembling voice, lying on the ground.

It's only one day away, just one day away, and the border can be kept!Those thieves from the Obscure Moon Kingdom can't be so rampant.

The sound of fighting that day, the clang of weapons, and the screams seemed to be still echoing in my ears, and the dazzling scene under the setting sun appeared before my eyes again. Everyone was red, that was stained red by blood, the enemy Yes, my own, dyed all over, like a battle robe coagulated with blood, the blood flowed like a river that day.

That one-sided massacre is a purgatory on earth.

Fear and grief made the postman tremble uncontrollably, and teardrops fell from his eyes, hitting the ground, as if he was going to make a hole.

"Your Majesty, the army is now confronting the Obscure Moon Kingdom at Tianxian Pass!" The postman restrained his emotions, and raised his head to report the current situation of the battlefield ahead.

The natural danger pass is easy to defend and difficult to attack. Since the founding of the country, it has been the most important pass in the Great Zhou Dynasty. The natural danger pass cannot be lost, and it must not be lost.

Emperor Cheng strengthened his spirits, and said in a deep voice: "Apart from Wuyue, are there people from other countries?"

Yi almost nodded: "Yes!" Taking a deep breath, he continued: "The combined number of those small countries is about half of the army of the Obscure Moon."

"I see." Emperor Cheng waved his hand with a serious expression.

The postman left the battle report, and then carefully exited the hall.

"An Yuan, go, let Zhao Mi pass the decree, and call all the ministers here, cough cough—" Emperor Cheng sat back on the chair, coughed a few times weakly, and after a few strange blushes floated across his face, become a little pale.

An Yuan responded, looked at Emperor Cheng's face, and said worriedly: "Your Majesty, my servant sent someone to ask Imperial Physician Lu to show you?"

Emperor Sheng raised his hand: "No need, hurry up and deliver the decree."

"Abiding by the order!" An Yuan backed out with worry in his eyes.

Emperor Cheng, who stayed in the hall, looked at the door and murmured: "Sky Pass, don't lose it."

The loss of the border gate was like a stone thrown into the lake, rippling around in the capital, causing panic.

They were very worried that Da Zhou would not be able to defeat the alliance formed by Obscure Moon and other countries, but now that the border was broken, their worries were infinitely magnified in an instant.

In the restaurant, everyone was discussing the loss of the border in low voices.

"What should I do? If my Great Zhou falls into the hands of the Obscure Moon Kingdom, it will definitely not please me."

"Whoever says no, will be driven as the cheapest slave at that time! Sigh..."

"I hope Su Shuai can hold on to the natural danger."

"If I knew this was the case, I might as well have said a few soft words from the beginning and asked for peace." Suddenly a person muttered.

"How can you think so? Obscure Moon Kingdom is a wolf with ambition, and seeking peace can only make it gain more ground. How can I be so weak in such a vast and vast country? Will it not be slaughtered in the future?" A scholar stood up excitedly, Angrily said.

"However, at least to sum up, there is still time to prepare."

"You..." The book was so angry that he threw his glass, pointing at him and being speechless for a long time.

Everyone was silent, not knowing what they were thinking, and finally all turned into a long sigh.

In the box on the second floor of the restaurant.

"Ninth Brother, Ninth Brother, don't be impulsive, calm down, calm down." An Zirui, sweating profusely, hugged Gu Jiu tightly, preventing him from going downstairs.

Gu Jiu gritted his teeth and said, "Let go of me! Otherwise, don't blame me for giving you a whip." He was about to be strangled to death by An Zirui.

"Hey, Ninth Brother, I'm not afraid." An Zirui refused to let go.

"You..." Gu Jiu was strangled tightly by An Zirui, unable to move.

Rolling her eyes, Gu Jiu snorted, "Let go of me, otherwise I won't think of me taking you to Yuefu again."

With a 'whoosh', An Zirui let go of Gu Jiu, and looked at Gu Jiu obsequiously: "Don't, Brother Jiu, now they won't let anyone in except you. If you don't take me in, who will I learn medical skills from?"

Seeing An Zirui's swiftness, Gu Jiu rolled his eyes.I really don't know why An Zirui suddenly became obsessed with studying medicine? !

"Why are you still in the capital?" Gu Jiu glanced at the door, squeezed the whip firmly, and gradually calmed down.

Almost all the generals were sent out by his uncle, except for Zhen Guohou, who was a great general in Dazhou, and he was a god of death in the Obscure Moon Kingdom. Many generals of the Obscure Moon Kingdom just heard that Zhen Guohou Hou's name is probably weak in the legs.

Of course, this name does not refer to An Erniu.

Hearing Gu Jiu's question, An Zirui scratched the back of his head, and replied in doubt: "Maybe there is something more important that my father needs to do?!"

Is it because of that?Gu Jiu's expression changed. If it was because of that incident, uncle would——

Seeing Gu Jiu whose expression suddenly became serious, An Zirui asked suspiciously, "Brother Jiu, what are you thinking?"

"nothing."

While An Zirui was wondering, Yantong walked in, saluted the two of them, and then said to Gu Jiu, "Master, Mo Qu begs to see you."

Mo Qu?That Mo family.If Mo Qu hadn't come looking for him again, he would have almost forgotten about this person.

Glancing at An Zirui, Gu Jiu said: "Xiao Rui'er, I have something to do right now, you go back first, and I will ask you to come out with me when you are free."

"Ah? Oh, good." An Zirui left the room in a daze.

Mo Qu came here this time because he discovered a big secret. When Gu Jiu was locked up, Mo Qu was helpless, and he couldn't even find out the ins and outs of the truth. Like being slapped by someone.

The crazy training of those spies these days finally had some effect. During a training session, a spy unintentionally discovered a big secret.

As soon as Mo Qu learned about it, he went to confirm it himself, and then rushed to Gu Jiu...to ask for credit.

"En...Master Jiu, I have information to tell you!!" Mo Qu, who stepped into the door, was a little excited when he saw Gu Jiu. He was finally able to do something for his benefactor, how could he not be excited? !

Gu Jiu raised his hand to stop him, and said in a clear voice to a certain place: "Zhu Xin, ask the hidden guards to guard around."

"Yes." A voice came from the empty place.

Seeing this, Mo Qu waited quietly without changing his face, Yan Tong saluted Gu Jiu and Mo Qu, then retreated, and closed the door for them.

"Let's talk." Gu Jiu looked at Mo Qu leisurely, wanting to see what surprises this Mo family could bring him.

Mo Qu collected his expression, and said seriously, "Jiuye, do you know that there is a Niujiazhuang near the emperor's hunting paddock?"

Hearing this, Gu Jiu frowned. The name sounded a little familiar to him. He unconsciously rubbed the whip with his fingers, and suddenly a light flashed in his mind.

Niujiazhuang, isn't that where the groom brother who tampered with his uncle's horse was located?

Gu Jiu put away the sloppiness on his face and asked, "What's wrong there?"

"In the mountains not far from Niujiazhuang, there is an army of about 5 people. There are traces of life, and the latest trace is three days ago."

Standing up in a 'bass', Gu Jiu asked in shock with a pale face, "What you said is true?"

"Of course it is true." Afraid that Gu Jiu would not believe it, Mo Qu nodded quickly.

Gu Jiu couldn't sit still anymore, and walked up and down the room.

At that time, he wanted to find out the spy of the Obscure Moon Kingdom as soon as he left the Imperial Prison, but his uncle insisted that Zhen Guohou should watch him, and now he got such news that he didn't know whether it was good or bad.

"Has the army ever found out who it belongs to?"

"Never before, we were one step too late when we investigated, and the person is no longer there." Mo Qu frowned. This army marched neatly and neatly. If it wasn't for his Mohist's unique investigation method, he really wouldn't have found that one. So many people have been there.

Gu Jiu walked back and forth in the room a little hurriedly, with a lot of thoughts, could it be that this is the army from the sixth uncle in the previous life when he forced the palace?He wants to rebel now?Now that the capital is empty of troops, it is really a good opportunity to rebel, Gu Jiu clenched his fists.

wrong! !With so many people near the capital, it stands to reason that they would be discovered by others, but the army has been there for at least three days, and no one knows about it. Maybe they have been lurking there for a long time. I'm afraid he won't be able to react until the army forces the palace.

Gu Jiu's back was drenched with sweat, if he rebelled now, then this time would be a 'good' choice!

Now is the time when Kyoto's defense is weakest. Let alone 5 people, it is 4 people. The current Kyoto may not be able to resist, not to mention that they are still quietly lurking near Kyoto. nothing.

The more he thought about it, the more frightened he became, Gu Jiu turned around and said, "Can you help me find out if they have come around this capital?"

"What the benefactor said, Mo Qu must do his best." Mo Qu looked solemn, and his heart was slightly excited. The benefactor was finally willing to believe him.

"Okay, thank you! Young Master is in a hurry right now, so I won't stay any longer." Gu Jiu turned around and left with an anxious expression on his face. He was afraid that the later it was, the worse it would be for the current situation in the capital.

"Benefactor, please..." Mo Qu looked at the empty door, said the last word dryly, and sighed: "The benefactor left really fast."

After leaving the restaurant, Gu Jiu gave some instructions to Yan Tong, then mounted his horse and headed straight for the palace.
