There are more assassins in another wave. Gu Jiao counts six assassins in total. Each assassin exudes a very strong breath, and makes Gu Jiao feel familiar.
Three people and a bird hide on the luxuriant branches. Gu Jiao and Gu Chengfeng hold their breath. Gu Jiao covers her aunt's nose, but she doesn't cover her to death, but she can block the sound to the maximum.
Small nine see Gu Jiao Wu, bird eyes turned, open wings, also covered his bird head.
Gu Chengfeng: No, you are a bird. What do you do?
Those people didn't know that Gu Jiao was in the tree. They thought that they were going forward again. They used their lightness skills to chase them forward.
Sure people go away, Gu Chengfeng began to speak: "now how to do?"
The carriage is gone and the horses are running. Can't they walk back to the capital with a few legs?
It's a little far from the capital. It takes several hours to speed up. If you really want to go back, you have to break their legs.
"Wait until dawn." Gu Jiao said.
Although it's easy to hide one's figure when walking on the night road, it's easy to be suspicious when several people suddenly appear in the night. The slightest movement will be magnified invisibly.
There are more people on the road in the daytime, but they are not easy to be found in the crowd.
"Just... Sit in the tree and wait?" Gu Chengfeng asked.
While they were talking, a poisonous snake slowly approached them with a snake letter.
The viper is closest to Gu Jiao.
Just when it opened its mouth with sharp teeth and bit Gu Jiao's neck, little Jiu Yi flapped it away!
It's obviously not realistic to stay in the tree for a night, not to mention these poisonous snakes and insects, just in case they accidentally squint and fall from the tree.
"Well? There seems to be a cave over there Gu Jiao looked at the foot of the mountain in the South and said, "go and have a look!"
The three went to the foot of the mountain in the south of the forest, and there was a cave.
"Someone lived." Gu Jiao takes out a fire fold and looks at the firewood and withered grass on the ground.
"This kind of place is also inhabited?" Gu Chengfeng turned his lips.
"I lived a long time ago. I should have just passed by." Gu Jiao simply tidied up the cave and gathered the withered grass. She said to Gu Chengfeng, "let my aunt sit here."
It's cold in the cave. It's time for Empress Dowager Zhuang to sit on the ground. Fortunately, there are withered grass left by her predecessors.
"Oh." Gu Chengfeng puts down the sleeping empress dowager Zhuang and lets her sit on the grass. Gu Jiao sits next to her aunt and lets her aunt lean on her shoulder.
Gu Chengfeng, a big man, can only sit on the ground. Although he is the biggest thief in the capital, he is a rich thief. What he eats is physical pain, not life pain.
Therefore, this kind of environment is a bit of torture for him, but there is no way.
Xiaojiu is on guard in a big tree.
Gu Jiao put away the fire fold, and the cave fell into darkness again. In a moment, the cool moonlight came in and made the cave quiet.
Gu Chengfeng broke the silence in the cave. He picked up a dead branch on the ground and scratched on the ground: "you say... Why did Princess Jing do this? Why is she aiming at the Empress Dowager everywhere? Just because she didn't become the queen mother? But if she didn't go all the way to the black with the empress dowager, she wouldn't give her a empress dowager, would she
It is not uncommon for two empresses to appear at the same time. One is the emperor's legitimate mother, and the other is the emperor's biological mother. This is the case with the founding empress dowagers Zhao and Xun.
Gu Jiao thought: "because of jealousy?"
Jealousy makes people crazy. You never know what unreasonable things a woman full of jealousy will do.
"Because of hatred."
Empress Dowager Zhuang's voice rang out slowly.
Gu Jiao turned her head: "aunt, are you awake?"
"Well." Empress Dowager Zhuang straightened up slowly. In the dark, she closed her eyes. When she opened them again, her eyes were cold. "She was the last sin of the previous dynasty."
Pop!
Gu Chengfeng a force, the branch in the hand broke, he said in disbelief: "before, before the iniquity?"
The former dynasty has been destroyed for two hundred years, but there are still many evils. It's terrible!
"Did my aunt know that long ago?" Gu Jiao asked.
Empress Dowager Zhuang shook her head: "it's just known."
On the carriage, Princess Jing shows off her bracelet and pulls her sleeve higher. She accidentally catches a glimpse of the pigeon blood tattoo on Princess Jing's arm.
There is a tattoo on her arm all the time. It used to be a peony. Today, I saw it and knew it was a red flame totem.
I think that peony was painted by her in order to cover up the red flame totem in the past. No wonder Ning'an broke her face at the beginning. She immediately gave Ning'an a way to draw a crabapple makeup on the scar. It turned out to be a common trick.
Empress Dowager Zhuang said, "that totem is the emblem of the dead in the former dynasty. It's a bit like the Xuanwu tattoo on the face of the Dragon shadow guard."
Although they were all dead men, the former dead men were not like the Dragon shadow guards. They were just tools to kill people. They were more like experts in the field, as well as counselors and scouts.
Gu Jiao suddenly realized: "no wonder she is so good." It's the dead man.
Empress Dowager Zhuang then said, "the real dead men of the former dynasty no longer exist. Strictly speaking, they are the descendants of the former dynasty. The original purpose of the former Emperor to train the Dragon shadow guards was to kill the former dynasty dead men. They were almost killed. Who would have expected that there was still a fish in the net."
Gu Chengfeng opened his mouth: "that... Uncle Yong..."
Today, Yong Enbo is the nephew of Princess Jing.
Empress Dowager Zhuang snorted: "do you think everyone is qualified to be a rebel? It's impossible for yongenbo to be favored by the party members of the former dynasty. It's just that Princess Jing's brother is a bit hard to figure out. It's a pity that he got sick early. "
Otherwise, who can say that there will not be a second Zhuang Taifu in the capital?
Gu Chengfeng was so shocked that if the Empress Dowager didn't say it herself, who would have expected that a little princess Jing was involved in such a ticket.
He couldn't believe it!
"Then... Is it because there are the remaining evils of the former dynasty that she took you to the frontier fortress this time? Is she going to meet them? I can't stay in the palace any longer. I just want to get out in time. She and she want to... "
The word "rebellion" was stifled by Gu Chengfeng.
It seems that he should not be involved in the government.
Empress Dowager Zhuang did not deliberately conceal: "for the time being, we can infer that the frontier fortress is a place of suffering. The imperial court has no strict control over it. If we want to support our troops, it's the most suitable place."
Gu Chengfeng suddenly heard the inside story that even his grandfather and elder brother couldn't hear, and his mood was really indescribable: "however, she has been in contact with the frontier fortress for so many years, is there no doubt? She... "Gu Chengfeng's words stopped.
He remembered that Princess Ning'an married to the frontier fortress.
He sighed, "she's so calculating."
Princess Ning'an's marriage was her premeditation from the beginning. The man who made Princess Ning'an fall in love at first sight, the man who loved Princess Ning'an with his life, was also a chess piece of Princess Jing.
"How can there be such a cold-blooded person? Princess Ning'an is so pathetic Gu Chengfeng didn't know what to say.
Empress Dowager Zhuang closed her eyes and there was a flash of water in her eyelashes.
Small nine puff chi to fly to come over, fell on Gu Jiao's leg.
Gu Jiao understanding, Mou Guang a cool, way: "they chase to come!"
Gu Chengfeng's face changed: "so fast!"
"Go Gu Jiao helps her aunt up.
Gu Chengfeng turns around and carries her aunt on her back. In order to make him free, Gu Jiao ties her belt to her and him.
Gu Chengfeng see her posture is not right, eyebrow a Cu, way: "what do you want to do?"
Gu Jiao said, "I'll lead them away. You take your aunt with you."
"No! It's the same thing to quote... "
He wanted to say that he was going to lead, but Gu Jiao had already rushed out.
In fact, he also knows that this is the best arrangement - he is good at lightness, can lead people quickly, and Gu Jiao is very good at delaying them to the greatest extent.
Gu Chengfeng is not indecisive. If he delays any longer, no one can leave.
He carried his aunt on his back, performed his lightness skills and disappeared into the night in the opposite direction.
……
In the forest, Gu Jiao is against the gang.
She finally knew where the sense of familiarity came from. These people's moves and murderous spirit were too similar to the Dragon shadow guard.
After getting the Dragon shadow guard, Princess Jing asks the Dragon shadow guard to duel with the experts below. She asks someone to figure out and analyze the martial arts of the Dragon shadow guard, and trains a "dragon shadow guard" of her own.
It's a little worse than the real dragon shadow guard, but it's much more powerful than the ordinary experts.
Gu Jiao's body soon took the wound, the blood flows down her arm.
Her purpose is not to fight with others. After such a long delay, these people should not catch up with Gu Chengfeng.
Gu Jiao uses the black fire bead to blow up a path of blood and runs into the deep forest.
One of the men in black held back the pain, pulled his bow and arrow and shot at Gu Jiao's heart.
Small nine wings fly, with the sky overlord's fierce and swift, a claw to seize the arrow!
