Chapter 268 - The King of the North (1)

The That person said that most of the places were not peaceful, so what happened at the Imperial Court? Mu Wanjun looked at Huyan, Huyan felt wronged: "I don't know either, why are you looking at me like that?"

Mu Wanjun said: "If these people are the queen's people, then why do you think they are here?"

For the most part, things were not peaceful, but the queen sent people outside, which was naturally not so simple, and thinking about how the queen had asked him to come back with Prince Zuo Ying, these people could also be the people the queen sent to save the emperor.

Thinking about that, Huyan wanted to chase up, but was stopped by Mu Wanjun.

"What are you doing?" Didn't you say that only the queen's trusted confidante knew that the prince would be welcomed back? That meant that Hua Ye was someone who could be trusted. He is the general in front of the palace! "

"Have you forgotten that we were ambushed? If it is true that only the queen's confidant knows of it, why would anyone follow us and ambush us? "

With Mu Wanjun's reminder, Huyan knew that the situation was much more complicated than they had imagined.

"What do we do now?" After getting along with him for the past few days, Huyan had already completely admired Mu Wanjun, so he came to ask her about many things. And he did this because he knew what kind of secret agreement the Prince and State Duke of Jin had with each other. Since even the Prince could trust someone like him, he would naturally not reject it.

Just as Mu Wanjun was about to think of a way to talk to them, he heard a rumbling sound.

This was the sound of an avalanche, but from the sound of it, it should be quite a distance away. At this time, Huyan's underlings had been observing from the outside, and they quickly came back to report: "General, the avalanche has broken. That group of people also came back.

Mu Wanjun made a plan in her mind, and she called Huyan over, and whispered this in his ear.

"How is it?"

"This is a good plan!" Rest assured, Lady Mu is on me. "

Not long after, that group of people came back.

But instead of staying in the house in the cedar grove, they went out the way they had come.

Amongst this group of people, there were two people who looked at each other and followed the group in silence.

When the three underlings in the room saw that General Huyan and Mu Wanjun had successfully mixed into the team, they quickly left as well.

He followed the group and soon passed through the cedar forest.

Because of the darkness of the night, everyone was able to move forward with their torches lit up, and the torches' weak light was limited in the snow, so Mu Wanjun and Huyan did not attract too much attention, and on the entire journey, Mu Wanjun did not stop, secretly improving her skin mask by following the two people they had just knocked down.

When they passed through the cedar forest and arrived at the main square, no one noticed anything wrong with the team.

After travelling like this for three days, they were about to arrive at the main city.

Most of the Northern Kingdom was built on the boundless prairie. The snowstorm here was much less than the one on the road here. When the snowstorm was over, there wasn't even a single snowflake to be seen.

When they arrived at a relay station outside of the Royal Capital, everyone changed their horses and galloped in. These people were all wearing the attire of the Imperial Guards, so they were able to travel unhindered all the way to the Royal Capital.

When Mu Wanjun saw the monarch, he could not help but be startled as well!

The Northern Kingdom was built on the prairie, but the style of the imperial government was very similar to that of the ancient kingdom of Lou Lan, which had vanished from the memories of his previous life. If she did not know where she was, she would have thought that she had been transported to Lou Lan in the ancient capital.

However, upon closer inspection, he discovered that this place was only similar.

But the shock it brought was enough to cause Mu Wanjun to raise his eyebrows.

And after entering the Imperial Court, one could see the spacious drill grounds. The drill grounds here was much larger than the ones she had seen in the Qin Dynasty. Countless horses were leisurely grazing there.

There were also many northern soldiers on horseback with bare arms, but their bows and arrows could hit the target at the end of the field without fail.

With such precision and such strength, Mu Wanjun was deeply moved.

It was said that the people of the Northern Kingdom were good at riding and shooting, and it was indeed true.

Huyan explained to Mu Wanjun in secret. Amongst the cavalrymen, the person in front was a general, but this general was the same as his subordinates, bare-armed and shooting arrows with a bent bow.

And if any of his men had an arrow faster than the general's, the general was willing to punish himself with a jug of wine or make dozens of push-ups on the spot.
