As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Hong discovered that there were a large number of pursuers behind him. Looking at Xu Yi again, he understood. "Of course, you leave quickly!" Now, Gu Hong didn't care about much. Even if he was against the emperor's brother, he
We must also protect Mo Jinran!
"How could this happen?" Mo Jinran turned the horse's head. Now was not the time to hesitate, and quickly galloped forward.
Gu Hong ordered Qin Weishi to carry Xu Yi, and the two of them rode on the same horse and followed Mo Jinran, while he would stay here to stop him.
Several soldiers in front had just heard Xu Yi's words, and they were all surprised. They did not expect that the general they had always worshiped like a god was a woman. Although they were surprised, they did not want Mo Jinran to be in danger.
Gu Hong looked at the gradually approaching pursuers and said to the soldiers, "Since the secret can no longer be hidden, I would like to ask everyone, whether General Mo is a man or a woman? Do you want General Mo to be beheaded?"
Gu Hong no longer calls Mo Jinran Prince Consort, otherwise it would be such a ridiculous title. And Gu Hong knows that if the matter is revealed, the emperor will not let Mo Jinran go. Princess Xili has already married, and the married
It's a woman, what a shame this would be for the royal family.
Gu Hong's words were heard by the soldiers behind him. They looked at Mo Jinran's back and could not accept the fact that Mo Jinran was a woman for a moment.
While they were thinking, the pursuers had already arrived. With a wave of Gu Hong's hand, the soldiers blocked their way. "Who are you? What are you doing?"
The leader was the commander of the Royal Forest Army. Gu Hong had forgotten his name, but knowing that he was from the emperor, Gu Hong didn't give him a good look at all.
"My subordinates have met with the Ninth Prince. They have signed the Emperor's decree and come to arrest the consort... General Mo, I wonder if General Mo is now..."
"Bold, General Mo and I have made great achievements in relieving disasters. How come the Imperial Brotherhood has sent people to arrest you? How dare you to deceive me?" Gu Hong pretended to be angry and exposed the rest of the Royal Forest Army.
With a trembling appearance, the Ninth Prince has always had a bad temper. Although he does not offend others easily, he cannot offend him no matter what.
"Ninth Prince, everything I say is true. General Mo has committed a serious crime!" The commander of the Royal Forest Army couldn't help but have a headache!
"Oh? Is it true? Then show me the imperial edict?" Gu Hong raised his eyebrows, as if he was pretending to pass on the imperial edict if he didn't show it.
"To report to the Ninth Prince, my subordinates followed the Emperor's oral instructions and there is no imperial edict!"
"There is no imperial edict? How can I believe you?"
"Ninth Prince, everything I say is true. If I have a hundred courages, I will not falsely convey the Holy Will!"
Hearing this, Gu Hong couldn't help but sneer: "Haha! Who knows if you have become ambitious or brave?"
At this time, the Royal Forest Army and others had begun to become anxious. The commander of the Royal Forest Army looked around from time to time, looking for the figures of Mo Jinran and Xu Yi. "Ninth Prince, you'd better ask your subordinates to arrest them quickly. The subordinates know that Mr. Xu just
I came here with a tip, General Mo has not escaped, has he?"
"Bold, how can I allow you to be so presumptuous in front of this king? You have no imperial decree and dare to slander General Mo like this. You are worthy of death!"
Gu Hong's words were a bit serious and he was trying to scare them. They were scared in their hearts, but the emperor's errand was not done well, so maybe it would be more serious?
"Please tell me from the Ninth Prince, my subordinates don't dare!"
"Hmph, let me wait until I return to the palace to ask my brother what to do with you!" After Gu Hong finished speaking, he was about to lead his people back.
"Ninth Prince, where is General Mo?" the commander of the Royal Forest Army couldn't help but ask.
Gu Hong glanced at the carriage behind him and said calmly: "Rest in the carriage!"
Upon hearing this, the commander of the Royal Forest Army was about to go over to check, but was stopped by Gu Hong's men.
"General Mo is very busy and tired during the disaster relief period. If you dare to disturb General Mo, don't blame me for being rude!"
The commander of the Royal Forest Army abruptly retracted his steps, his expression ugly. He has always been on duty for the emperor and is the emperor's confidant. This is the first time he has been treated like this. "Ninth Prince, what about Master Xu?"
"Master Xu? I have never seen it, have you seen it?" Gu Hong asked the soldiers behind him, and everyone shook their heads and said they had not seen it.
Everyone unanimously denied it. What else could the commander of the Royal Forest Army say? He had to let Gu Hong return to the palace first, and then report it to the emperor. The emperor would decide everything.
At this time, Mo Jinran had already run far away on Heisha, followed closely by Qin Weishi and Xu Yi. However, Xu Yi's condition made Mo Jinran very worried, and he couldn't help but stop to check Xu Yi's injuries.
.
"General, let's run away first!" Qin Weishi was not too surprised about Mo Jinran's daughter's pregnancy!
"Let's take a look at Xu Yi first!" Mo Jinran was worried and insisted!
Qin Weishi had no choice but to turn over and dismount, hugged Xu Yi down, and lay flat on the ground. He had several stab wounds on his body, but they were not fatal. It seemed that he fainted because of excessive blood loss. He didn't know that he was such a weak scholar.
How did she persevere? Mo Jinran couldn't help but feel pain in her heart. Who hurt Xu Yi? What happened? She would never give up!
Fortunately, those who lead troops in battles are accustomed to carrying wound medicine with them, and they simply treated Xu Yi. They planned to escape again. As for what happened in the imperial city, they could only ask Xu Yi after he woke up.
"General Mo..." A woman's voice came from not far away from Mo Jinran, making Mo Jinran and Qin Weishi alert. They clenched the swords in their hands, ready for a bloody battle at any time.
They looked towards the source of the sound, and saw a woman in a green shirt standing not far from them. Judging from her appearance, she was from the Jianghu.
"Who are you?"
"General Mo, my little girl, Lian Shubing, is a member of the eldest son. I have invited a few of you to come with me. I will definitely protect General Mo!" The woman cupped her hands, looking generous.
"Are you a deserted person?" Mo Jinran did not expect to meet a deserted person here. However, there was also a trace of doubt in her heart. The situation was very dangerous at this time and she could not believe this woman named Lian Shubing.
"I know that General Mo will doubt me. Here is the eldest son's handwritten letter!" Lian Shubing took out a letter from his arms and handed it to Mo Jinran. Mo Jinran opened it and saw that it was Leng Qing's handwriting.
.
The general meaning is that if Lian Shubing shows up, it must be when she is in crisis. Please trust Lian Shubing and she will protect them.
Only then did Mo Jinran believe Lian Shubing and bowed his hand to her: "Sorry!"
"It's okay. If it were me, I wouldn't believe it! I'd like to ask a few of you to follow me quickly. Although I didn't catch up, there's no guarantee that they will give up tracking!"
"What this girl said is, let's leave quickly!" Although Qin Weishi didn't believe that a woman could protect them, it was still important to escape now.
So, Mo Jinran and others followed Lian Shubing to a mountain road. They didn't want to take the main road when they fled, but they were not familiar with the small road, and they were afraid that it would be self-defeating. Lian Shubing was very familiar with the small road, so he didn't want to take the road.
She would always remind him aloud when the road was difficult to walk, which made Qin Weishi's eyes darken when he looked at Lian Shubing.
After riding horseback for more than an hour, they arrived at a small village. Because it was cold winter, everyone stayed behind closed doors and everything was quiet. Lian Shubing took them into a very ordinary farmhouse.
After entering the door, Lian Shubing nodded to the farmer's couple. They acted as if they hadn't seen the three of them. They did whatever they had to do. What did Mo Jinran want to say or what did he want to ask?
However, Lian Shubing signaled him not to speak.
Several people descended from the backyard of their home into the cellar. The cellar was so big that even the Black Evil could enter.
After several twists and turns, they walked a long way in the cellar. It was obvious that this was not a cellar, but an entrance to the tunnel. It was very dark inside, and Mo Jinran could only follow Lian Shubing's footsteps.
But no one offered to use torches to illuminate it, so Mo Jinran didn't take out the golden pendant.
This tunnel was long and dark, but it was not as dark as Mo Jinran's heart. Her mind was filled with worries about her family!
A few of them were walking, while Xu Yi was lying on the horse. Mo Jinran knew that even with simple treatment, Xu Yi still needed good treatment and recuperation!
After walking for who knows how long, I finally saw a little light, and even Shu Bing seemed to be relieved. In the darkness, she smiled apologetically at Mo Jinran: "I'm really wronged General Mo!"
"I would also like to thank Miss Lian!"
"Pfft...Miss Lian?" Lian Shubing sneered. This was the first time someone called her that.
While they were talking, they had already exited the tunnel, and in front of them was a completely different scene. Even the slightly tense expression on Shu Bing's face relaxed. "There should be no problem now, we can do some work here."
Rest!" She pointed to the thatched hut in front of her, which looked very simple.
Several people walked in and placed Xu Yi on the simple wooden bed inside.
"General Mo, don't worry, this young master's injury is not serious!" Lian Shubing stepped forward to take a look and comforted Mo Jinran.
"Thank you!"
"General Mo, why don't you stop saying thank you and see more people outside? When you take off this men's clothing, I will call you Madam!" Lian Shubing said, looking at Mo Jinran with ambiguous eyes, asking Mo Jin to
Ran's face couldn't help but turn red.
After Lian Shubing settled them down, he walked out of the hut and touched some mechanism around the tunnel, only to hear a faint crashing sound. Because Mo Jinran had recovered his martial arts, he was naturally much smarter and could not help but stand at the door and look sideways.
Looking over, Lian Shubing gave Mo Jinran a hearty smile: "The tunnel here has been destroyed, no one will know that we are here. Although it is simple, we can rest for two days while waiting for this person.
The young master’s injury is healed, let’s take a long-term approach!”
"That's fine!" Mo Jinran wanted Xu Yi to wake up quickly, firstly for his own health, but also because he wanted to know the news in the imperial city!
