This man was riding a sweaty horse and was extremely fast. Even though Ming Mo whipped the horse that was harnessing the carriage, the other person still rode in front to stop him.
"Sir?" Ming Mo reined in the reins and asked.
Queen? Gu Chengyu looked surprised. The harem was not allowed to interfere in politics. How could the queen go beyond the prince and call him back again?
What's more, the queen is very unhappy with him, how can she summon him to the palace?
Then Gu Chengyu frowned, could it be that something happened to the prince?
No matter what, since the other party was blocking his way, he couldn't turn a blind eye. Gu Chengyu opened the curtain and was about to ask more questions.
Who would have thought that as soon as he opened his mouth, he heard several sounds piercing the air.
Gu Chengyu immediately raised his sword and flew out. Ming Mo and Ming Yan also reacted very quickly. They turned around and cut off several flying arrows with a diagonal slash.
Gu Chengyu immediately looked back. The man on the sweaty BMW widened his eyes with disbelief. Then he leaned back and fell to the ground.
And in his throat, there was an arrow that penetrated. The blood on this man's neck had already spurted out.
Gu Chengyu's eyes sharpened. Someone actually killed this man. Didn't someone want him to return to the capital?
"Be on guard, protect your lord!" Ming Mo shouted sharply. Although there were no arrows released at this moment, he did not dare to take it lightly.
Just after leaving the capital, such assassinations occurred. It seems that the journey to the border will not be peaceful. Oh, no! They don't know if they can go to the border yet.
Gu Chengyu quickly looked around and found that the surrounding area was a wilderness. Most of the grass that originally reached his waist was crushed by heavy snow. Farther away was a forest. Although it was a bit bleak in winter, there was not a lot of it.
This place is quite far away from the capital and is very desolate. But if there is an ambush, people can be hidden in the woods or grass.
Suddenly, a carriage slowly drove towards them. Gu Chengyu clenched the sword in his hand, and the arrows were shot in a different direction. He rushed out of the carriage, and the arrows stopped, so he had no idea what to do.
Identify the correct orientation.
Ming Mo and Ming Yan frowned, the timing of the carriage's appearance was very suspicious.
Gu Chengyu's body was surrounded by gusts of cold wind. Even though his internal energy was pure and he was wrapped in a fox fur cloak, Gu Chengyu still felt that the cold wind was quite biting.
The carriage gradually approached, and Ming Mo and others surrounding Gu Chengyu felt as if they were facing a formidable enemy. Although the master himself was very powerful in martial arts, who knew whether the people in this carriage were even more powerful masters than the map master?
"Master Gu! Please don't act rashly!" A soft female voice suddenly came from the carriage, making everyone present stunned.
Gu Chengyu was a little surprised. The appearance of a woman at this time was really unexpected. Moreover, the woman also threatened him, which was even more surprising.
Could it be a female assassin? Gu Chengyu was silent and gripped the hilt of the sword a little tighter.
The carriage stopped fifty meters away from Gu Chengyu and the others.
A pair of plain white hands opened the curtain, and the people in the car were exposed in front of Gu Chengyu. When Gu Chengyu saw it, he couldn't help but froze on the spot.
How could it be her?
"My lord?" Ming Mo and Ming Yan were also shocked. Isn't this your lord's fiancée, Miss Yao?
"Miss Yao?" After a moment of pause, Gu Chengyu suppressed the doubts in her heart and shouted, as if to confirm the identity of this person.
"Master Gu!" Yao Mengxian's soft voice sounded. Her pretty face was a little pale, and then she smiled bitterly at Gu Chengyu, then bent down and got out of the carriage.
As soon as she appeared, Gu Chengyu showed a clear look.
Because behind Yao Mengxian was a man in black, and at this moment the sword in the man's hand was placed on Yao Mengxian's neck.
So that's it. Judging from the figure of the man in black, he should be a woman. The voice that just told him not to act rashly was made by the female assassin.
Gu Chengyu sighed, he seemed to be always being threatened.
He did place many secret guards around his relatives, but this girl Yao is a female dependent of the Zhenguo Palace, and she is a girl who has not left the palace. She does not leave the door all day long, and does not have the opportunity to contact outsiders.
many.
Therefore, Gu Chengyu only arranged for a secret guard to keep an eye on the Zhenguo Palace, but not on herself.
He didn't expect that these people would take advantage of this, and he was negligent. After all, Miss Yao was nominally his fiancée, and she was also the teacher's granddaughter.
"Master Gu, don't be nervous. We will not hurt your fiancée, let alone take your life. As long as you don't return to the capital within three days, we will naturally let your fiancée go and we will never harm you at all."
Seeing that Gu Chengyu's face was a bit ugly, the masked female assassin explained loudly.
In fact, Gu Chengyu was not nervous at the moment. If these people wanted to kill them, they would not have just fired these few arrows. The reason for arresting Yao Mengxian was just to make him obedient.
However, the purpose is to prevent him from returning to the capital? It seems that the capital is indeed in chaos, but I don't know who is here.
The female assassin approached Yao Mengxian, her hand holding the sword a little harder, and Yao Mengxian's neck could not help but be raised higher than before.
Yao Mengxian suddenly sighed in her heart, it was really a disaster from heaven. If you stay in the house well, you will be caught.
The purpose of arresting her was actually to threaten Gu Chengyu, and it was unclear whether it was she who had harmed Gu Chengyu, or whether Gu Chengyu had harmed her.
Yao Mengxian is just an ordinary boudoir girl. It is good to be able to remain calm at this moment and not tremble.
The female assassin behind her glanced at her, as if she was very surprised by Yao Mengxian's performance. But the coldness in her eyes still made Yao Mengxian feel as if she was in an ice cellar.
She always felt that the female assassin looked at her in a very strange way. She couldn't tell what she felt, but it was extremely complicated.
But at this moment, her life was still in the hands of others, so she couldn't think about it.
"Master Gu, if you don't want your fiancée to get a wound on her neck, then please put down the swords in your hands. Otherwise, I can't guarantee that my hands won't shake."
Gu Chengyu frowned and put down his sword. It didn't matter, but he suddenly felt that this person's voice seemed to have been heard somewhere before, and it felt inexplicably familiar.
He thought about it carefully, but he couldn't tell the difference. Maybe this woman was unfamiliar to him and they hadn't met her often, or maybe he heard wrongly.
Seeing that Gu Chengyu did not put down the sword in his hand, the female assassin thought that Gu Chengyu was still hesitating. The female assassin raised her eyebrows, and then repeated what she just said.
Yao Mengxian actually felt that the female assassin's tone was better than before, and the cold air surrounding her seemed to have dissipated.
Gu Chengyu came back to his senses, glanced at Yao Mengxian who was calm but pale, and said, "Put down the sword in your hand."
