The horse galloped all the way to the capital, but there were constant assassinations along the way. From time to time, a few assassins sprang out to fight, or shot a few arrows from the forest, and they simply ran fast. Although it was difficult and dangerous, there was no serious injury, but Su Yetao's The left arm was injured.

At the beginning of the morning, the spies from Yanting rushed to the imperial city to report to Yuyan that King Chen had left Yanting.

"Immediately send an order to go out and let the people at the gate of the city strengthen their defenses so that no one else can enter." Yu Yan ordered, turning around and staring at the distant direction with frosty face: "We must not ask Chen Wang and others to destroy our plan .”

"General, the time has come. It's time to send the crown prince to prison." Just as Yu Yan finished speaking at the door, an eunuch came in to report.

Yu Yan couldn't help snorting, and his eyes flashed unruly: "Our Yu family has planned for ten years, and we have today. Even King Chen, don't want to stop it!"

Mu Qianli and his party had already arrived at the capital at sunrise, and hibernated on a high hill outside the city. They only saw a few soldiers under the Yu family standing outside the city gate, checking the people coming and going.

"Master Yu must have gotten the news, how should we go to Beijing?" Jin Chao asked Mu Qianli while applying medicine to the wound on Su Yetao's arm.

Mu Qianli's phoenix eyes were narrowed, staring at the gate of the city below, with melancholy on his brows: "We can't enter the city now..."

"What should I do?" Mo Lanying wondered, "How about I help you lead them away."

"Leave one and there are countless more." Mu Qianli vetoed, just as he finished speaking, he suddenly heard a strange wind blowing in his ears, and saw a black shadow flashing past, the four of them hurriedly looked behind them.

It was a young man in his twenties, with a strong figure and excellent lightness kung fu. He didn't know if he was an enemy or a friend. Mu Qianli was about to ask, but the man chuckled and knelt down on one knee: " Xia Xiyang was ordered by the young master to bring King Chen into the city."

"Your son?" Mu Qianli asked doubtfully.

Xi Yang got up and nodded: "My son is Ling Shuyuan, the old friend of King Chen."

"Ah Yuan!" Mu Qianli was surprised again, looked Xi Yang up and down and couldn't help being surprised that Ling Shuyuan had such a powerful servant. It seems that Ling Shuyuan has really changed a lot in the past five years.

Xi Yang didn't have time to explain to Mu Qianli in detail, so he just took out a jade plaque from his sleeve and handed it to Mu Qianli to prove his identity, and then said: "Young master expects that the Yu family will send more soldiers at the city gate, so I specially asked my subordinates to send them the day before yesterday." Sent out of the city to meet King Chen."

"What is the plan to enter the city now?" Mu Qianli asked

"Don't worry, King Chen. I've already found someone in a small town outside the city to pretend to be a delivery caravan. When the time comes, King Chen and the others can just hide in the cargo box and get there."

"The caravan is now on standby at the foot of this hill, and I hope that King Chen will go with his subordinates quickly."

"Okay." Mu Qianli agreed, and the four of them looked at each other, and followed Xi Yang down the hill.

The disguised caravan of the townspeople quickly arrived at the gate of the city. After inspecting the townspeople, the soldiers in charge looked at the boxes behind the townspeople and ordered sharply, "What is this, open it?" come and see!"

"It's just some spices, nothing interesting." The four people in the cargo box only heard Xi Yang's voice coming from outside.

The soldier refused to give up, and ordered the people around: "You guys, go and have a look!"

The four people inside the box were all startled, they couldn't help but clenched their swords tightly, and the sound of their heartbeats gradually became louder and louder in the confined space.

"Hey officer, this smells so good. Once you open the box, the scent will disappear." Xi Yang's voice continued to come from outside, he smiled and approached the soldier, took out a generation of silver and passed it quietly : "My lord, this is a small business for us, so don't make things difficult for us."

"But we also have orders from above..." The soldier wondered, but after all he took advantage of others, he took a step back and said, "How about this, I won't open it, just stab it in with a knife, there are spices on the left and right It will be broken, so we can let the higher-ups see how it looks?"

The hearts of the four people in the box were slightly lowered, and they suddenly lifted up. Outside, Xi Yang seemed to want to stop him, but unexpectedly, the man raised his knife and chopped towards the middle of the box.

In a split second, before everyone could react, Mo Lanying, who was lying on the far right side of the box, got up instantly, and quickly protected the other three people under her body. Mu Qianli's unbelievable face.
