After being forced to marry the prince

The voices of the few people were not loud, and the old man who made the tea didn't know if it was because he saw their saving actions, the fear on his face was much less, and he even took the initiative to refill the tea for the few people tremblingly.

When leaving, Chen Qi paid the bill with a soft heart, and in addition to a few pennies for tea, he gave him an extra tael of silver.

As soon as they walked out of the tea shed, the old man hurriedly chased them out, shaking his hands and calling out:

"Give too much, give too much, guest officer, you gave too much tea money."

While talking, he couldn't help but take Chen Qi's hand, and put the extra tael of silver back into his palm.

Chen Qi couldn't refuse, so he had to accept it, and the old man walked back tremblingly.

Leaving the market, several people boarded the carriage, Chen Qi hurriedly handed the things in his heart to Chu Wu, only to see that besides the silver, there was a small ball of paper with a few small words written on it with charcoal:

Tomorrow at xu o'clock, under the teapot.

Several people looked at each other, and their hearts brightened, knowing that they might be able to find some direction for the problems that have troubled them for a long time in the past few days.

Liu Wangshan was extremely cautious, and Gu Baiji's subordinates searched for many days, and finally they could only confirm that there was indeed something hidden in his hands, but they didn't know the specifics.

Chen Qi suddenly said: "The people in Yuzhou are really miraculous. They are numb people and ridiculous state officials, but even an old man can read and write."

Chu Wuwen said, and he sighed in his heart, if the king is a wise king, there will be no disasters in the sky, this Yuzhou should be a peaceful scene of prosperity and prosperity!

The weather in Yuzhou is extremely changeable, and the temperature varies greatly. When it is cloudy, it is cold like winter, and when the sun comes out, it is hot like midsummer.

The next day was a rare hot weather, until around [-]:[-] in the afternoon, the sweltering heat just faded away, and the evening wind brought coolness.

This kind of coolness, staying in the house was a bit wasteful, and the few people went out again and walked on the street.

I paid attention this time, and I found many unusual things. Yuzi Kingdom and Dazhao are almost connected, so the appearance of the people of the two countries has not changed much, and it is even more difficult to distinguish them if they wear the same clothes.But despite this, if you look carefully, you can still see subtle differences from the decorations you wear and the accent and behavior.

What's more, unlike the people of Dazhao who were numb, these people didn't have much fear on their expressions, and they even looked at them curiously when they saw them.

"There are still a lot of people." Chu Yu said, "It seems that Liu Wangshan has been plotting for a long time."

A few people walked and chatted in low voices, seeing that it was almost time, they walked towards the tea stand yesterday.

At this time, the sky was almost dark, and there were no people on the street. Chu Wuji saw the tea shed from a distance, and heard a scream from inside, and then the sound of the cabinet frame being knocked over, and then the dead silence returned.

Chu Wu was startled, and instantly felt that something was wrong, "General, something happened!"

"Protect the lord!" Gu Baiji hurriedly ordered Chen Qi, and then rushed over like an arrow from the string.

When Chu Wuji arrived in a hurry, the murderer had disappeared.

The old man at the tea stall was lying on the ground covered in blood. Gu Baiji was barely protecting his last breath with his internal strength, and at the same time told Chen Qi:

"Chase!"

Chen Qi hurriedly responded, turned around and ran out of the tea stand.

"Old man!" Chu Wu exclaimed and hurried over.

The old man looked at them, there was no trace of panic on his face at this time, he raised his finger to the tea table, and said intermittently: "The nobleman rescued yesterday, he is the grandson of the old man, thank you!"

"Old man." Chu Wu said urgently, "Don't talk yet."

But the old man could no longer hear what he was saying, he looked straight at the void, and said hoarsely: "The eunuch has evil intentions and forced my son away..."

The voice has not yet fallen, and the breath is exhausted.

Eyes wide open, die with regret!

Gu Baiji put down the old man's body, Chu Wu took out a towel and wiped off the blood on his face, stood up and remained silent for a moment, then turned to Gu Baiji and said:

"General, ask someone to buy a coffin to enshrine the body, and then go to see if there is Yizhuang nearby, let's put the body there first!"

Gu Baiji nodded, "That's exactly what I mean."

After hearing Chu Wu's words, the guards following behind him had already left with interest.

Although the old man's family is still there, according to Liu Wangshan's frenzied level, they have harmed him by contacting him rashly.

Moreover, the old man never dies with peace in his eyes. Only by bringing Liu Wangshan to justice can he truly let him rest in peace.

I hate that Liu Wangshan is involved too much behind him, he can't be taken down hastily, all the interests involved in him must be involved.

Under the teacup is still a note with only three words on it: Yuqianshan.

"Yu Qianshan?" Gu Baiji frowned, "What does this mean?"

"A place name." Chu Wudao, "I have read the introduction in a Yuzhou scenery chronicle, saying that its scenery is the best, but it has been a long time, and I can't remember the detailed information."

Chu Yu said: "The place we just came to, there is an abandoned bookstore. Although the courtyard walls are dilapidated, some abandoned books can be seen from the walls and windows."

In this era, books, which were rare treasures in the peaceful and prosperous age, have become something that no one cares about at this time.

Bookstores usually have some books introducing local customs and customs.

Gu Baiji said: "Go and see."

Chu Yu said: "It's not too late, brother Jiu, you and the general go there first, I'll go back first."

To enter the bookstore, one had to climb over the wall, and the owner was not around, so it was not appropriate to publicize this kind of self-indulgence. There were so many people watching, and finally got some clues. Chu Yu didn't want to be a drag on himself.

Chu Wu thought for a while and said, "It's cold in Mu Han, so you might as well go back first when you see Su."

There were two guards beside Chu Yu, Chu Wu carried him into the carriage, and asked a few more guards to escort him back.

Gu Baiji and Chu Wu went to the bookstore, and when they climbed over the wall, they could see the whole picture. Although it was a bit dilapidated, it was more like someone forcibly broke in and smashed it.A door was hanging crookedly on the door frame, and a lot of dust had already fallen on it.

Going forward to open the door, Gu Baiji put his sleeves on Chu Wu's head, protecting him and going in together.

The room was also in a mess, with fragments of book pages on the ground, which had obviously been violently searched and destroyed before.

"Master shouldn't have been away for long." Gu Baiji said.

Although the house is dilapidated, the traces are still new.

Chu Wu picked up the owner's half-written copybook on the counter, only to see that the last word on the copybook was only half-written, and the last stroke was drawn very long, apparently interrupted by someone's sudden appearance, "The owner of the shop should also be A grown man, presumably he was the murderer of Liu Wangshan."

Most of the books on the bookshelves were also robbed, only a few books were left in the corner.

Fortunately, among the few intact books, they found a travel note about Yuzhou. A bird's-eye view map and abbreviated route.

On Chu Yu's side, from the tea shed to the prefect's mansion, he turned two streets and passed a rather quiet road.

On one side of the road is an unknown wall, the wall is very high, and some unknown vines are crawling on the wall, and on the other side is a forest.

Chu Yu's carriage drove into it, and the sound it made became more and more obvious.

When walking to the wall where a tree branch protruded, four or five figures suddenly jumped down from the wall, the blade in their hands glowing coldly against the moonlight.

The carriage stopped urgently, and the guards protecting Chu Yu reacted very quickly, and in an instant they were already fighting with the opponent with weapons in their hands.

The martial arts of the people who protected Chu Yu were also good, but the assassins were obviously determined to kill Chu Yu, not to mention the large number of people, all of them were ruthless.

The sound of blades clashing at night was extremely obvious, and the muffled sound of blades piercing flesh was extremely ear-piercing.

But after a while, more than half of the corpses on the ground were already lying on the ground. The assassins lost three of them, leaving only two, and all the guards guarding Chu Yu died.

The remaining two assassins moved their wrists very simply, and one of them cut off the horse's head, while the other stepped forward and kicked the carriage.

The carriage shook violently, Chu Yu was shaken out of the carriage, and fell heavily to the ground.
