So, this matter was decided.

On the top of the Golden Hall the next day, the old emperor looked down at the ministers standing below, and Luo Jiuyuan who was sitting on the side, and a faint light flashed in his eyes.

"The intention of the Chu State to start a war is already so obvious, but our dynasty still doesn't know the reality of their troops, the birthday of the emperor of the Chu State is a good opportunity, why don't you let the high priest send an envoy to the Chu State on behalf of our dynasty, or secretly probe the strength of the Chu State, how about it?"

This was said last night, and today is equivalent to informing the ministers.

"Your Majesty, the high priest is certainly noble, but for such a major matter as the envoy to the Chu State, do you have to send a prince to go with you?"

The old emperor laughed: "This is not necessary, the high priest is already very noble, if he sends another prince, it will be a bit too much."

In my opinion, it is better to let the high priest's fiancée and fiancée Yu Zhaohua go with the high priest, this girl is a ghost and a ghost, with her, she will definitely be able to find out a different situation, just like that, retreat from the dynasty! ”

The old emperor waved his sleeves, did not give the rest of the people a chance to refute, and directly retreated from the court.

Inside Xiao Ya Xuan.

"We're just going to go to the Chu State for a trip, are you going to move your family over?"

Luo Jiuyuan looked at the large lacquered wood boxes that filled almost half of the room, and his eyebrows twitched.

Yu Zhaohua took the time to look at the salute he had packed up, paused, and continued to carry jewelry on his hands.

"What's wrong with packing up more things, the envoy is representing a country, how can I lose face to the country because of the appearance problem?"

Although he said so, Yu Zhaohua was still reluctant to let go.

The ghost knows what happened to the envoy to Chu Guo this time, if she doesn't prepare to take some gold and silver with her, if something happens, it is estimated that she will not even be able to afford to eat big steamed buns.

As soon as Luo Jiuyuan looked at Yu Zhaohua, he knew that her flowery intestines were in full swing, and the corners of his lips hooked up with an arc that seemed to be smiling but not smiling: "These things have nothing to do with this mission, come here, help Miss Yu lose half!" ”

Because of Luo Jiuyuan's order, the angry Yu Zhaohua didn't say a word to him along the way.

"Okay, there is the boundary mountain in front, and after this is the territory of Chu State, shall we rest here?" Luo Jiuyuan had a headache, Yu Zhaohua, this woman really has a lot of temper.

Yu Zhaohua still had a cold face and ignored Luo Jiuyuan.

Luo Jiuyuan: "......"

"Okay, don't be angry, I'll buy it for you when you get to Chu State, okay?"

Yu Zhaohua's face suddenly thawed, and spring blossomed in an instant: "That's embarrassing, but since the priest is so enthusiastic, I can't shirk it......"

"Be careful!"

Before Yu Zhaohua finished speaking, the entire carriage shook, and then tilted down.

"Ah, Luo Jiuyuan help!" Yu Zhaohua's face turned pale, and he grabbed the carriage door and exclaimed.

Luo Jiuyuan subconsciously wanted to stand up, but thinking that in front of everyone's eyes, he would have to continue to hide the recovery of his legs, so he pressed it down.

However, he couldn't watch Yu Zhaohua being injured, the silver thread on his wrist flashed, wrapping around Yu Zhaohua's waist who was about to land, and death instantly pulled her back.

Yu Zhaohua closed his eyes tightly, ready to meet the pain of falling to the ground, but he didn't expect to fall into a warm embrace, and when he opened his eyes, Luo Jiuyuan's chin was exposed outside the silver mask.

"You ......" Before she finished speaking, Luo Jiuyuan suddenly pushed behind her with a palm, and even took Yu Zhaohua back a few steps.

Yu Zhaohua struggled to get up from Luo Jiuyuan's arms, and his sharp eyes found a man in black who had broken through the encirclement of the guards on the side of Luo Jiuyuan's back and raised his sword high.

"Luo Jiuyuan be careful!" Yu Zhaohua's face changed, and he subconsciously blocked Luo Jiuyuan's back.

Seeing that the sharp blade was about to fall on Yu Zhaohua's back, Yu Zhaohua could almost feel the cold chill on the blade.

Luo Jiuyuan was protected by Yu Zhaohua, and his heart was moved, and the corner of his eyes was a blade that flashed with cold light, and his eyes were cold.

He grabbed Yu Zhaohua's hand with his backhand, pulled her into his arms, and said in a low voice: "You just protect yourself, don't worry about me." ”

As he spoke, the silver light flashed in his hand, and the head of the fish that slipped through the net flew out.

"Are you alright?" Yu Zhaohua and Luo Jiuyuan said in unison.

Yu Zhaohua smiled, shook his head and said, "I'm fine." ”

Luo Jiuyuan let out a "hmm", then turned his head and said loudly: "Everyone rush out!" ”

The guards were all professionally trained, and when they heard the order, they quickly protected Luo Jiuyuan and Yu Zhaohua in the middle, forming a formation to break out.

Yu Zhaohua grabbed Luo Jiuyuan's cuffs tightly, watching the silver threads on his wrists flicker, killing a bloody path.

"If you still have the mind to be in a daze, go quickly." Luo Jiuyuan broke out with someone, looked at Yu Zhaohua's distracted appearance and smiled slightly, stretched out his hand and flicked a finger on her smooth forehead, teasing.

Yu Zhaohua came back to his senses, and under Luo Jiuyuan's smiling eyes, he only felt that there was nothing to hide.

"Ahem, do you have any clue who sent these people?"

Luo Jiuyuan didn't expose her either, and turned the topic to this assassination from the good.

"I don't have a clue yet, we'll rest here now, my chief guard has gone to scratch his tongue, who is it, I'll know if I ask."

From the beginning of the departure, the chief of the guard was replaced by Luo Jiuyuan's people, so he naturally completely obeyed Luo Jiuyuan's orders.

Yu Zhaohua nodded, and the solemn expression on his face did not decrease in the slightest: "This assassination, I estimate that it may be someone sent by the Chu State." The old emperor still wants you to inquire about him and come back, and now he is definitely reluctant to let you die, and if you want to do it, it will be on our way back, not now. ”

Yu Zhaohua looked at the boundary mountain behind him, frowned and slowly analyzed: "When we left, there was a lot of fanfare, the spies of the Chu State must have sent the news back, according to the current situation of the Chu State, they definitely don't want you, the high priest, to go to their land, but the distance between the two countries is far away, and it is reasonable for the priest to have something happen on the way." ”

Luo Jiuyuan looked at her analysis with a smile throughout the whole process, and finally nodded in agreement: "You're right, I think so too." ”

"My lord, the people have been caught." The chief guard threw the hostage in his hand to the ground and replied.

Luo Jiuyuan nodded, looked at the person in front of him who was obviously the leader of this ambush, and said in a deep voice: "Tell me, who is the master behind you?" ”

The sunspot man sneered, very backbone: "Behind us, there is no master!" ”

"It seems that he is too comfortable," Luo Jiuyuan's voice was calm: "In that case, let him loosen." ”

"Wait a minute, what are you going to do?"

Yu Zhaohua hurriedly grabbed Luo Jiuyuan, feeling worried.

"Interrogation, of course."

Luo Jiuyuan said.

"Of course I know that you are going to interrogate, I want to ask you, how are you going to be interrogated?"
