Chapter 682: Anger
"No, the two of us went out together, it was too eye-catching. You go ahead, I'll follow as soon as I can. ”
At the moment of going out, Gu Xiqian suddenly had concerns. At special times, you can't take anything as a coincidence. It's better to go out one after the other, just in case.
"If you are really not at ease, we will do the opposite, you go out first, and I will go out later. I'm still in there, they won't suspect it. ”
Luoquan thought about it and felt reasonable. If a few people outside talk about it casually, they are likely to be discovered, so it's better for them not to take this risk.
According to the agreement between the two, Gu Xiqian went out to wait in a hidden place, and Luoquan estimated the time to go out again.
"Now that you're basically safe, what are you going to do? Where are you going next? ”
The two of them escaped from the palace smoothly, and Gu Xiqian glanced back at the Yunnan Imperial Palace, not knowing what to think. Luoquan didn't want to see her like this, and couldn't help but change the subject.
"I want to go back to South Vietnam, and I can't watch it be devoured step by step. Although Mo Xuanyin said that it would be attacked sooner or later, I couldn't give up. If I do nothing and let it perish in the end, I will blame myself for the rest of my life! ”
Gu Xiqian escaped in such a hurry, and there was only one goal to go back to save Nanyue. Now he answers without thinking. Her gaze was very determined, and that was a place she would rather leave here than ignore.
"Then I'll go with you, the situation in Nanyue is so critical now, I don't worry about you going alone."
Luoquan naturally couldn't stop Gu Xiqian, but he didn't worry about Gu Xiqian going alone, and offered to accompany Gu Xiqian.
"That's fine, let's hurry up. If Mo Xuanyin finds out, he will catch up soon, and we have to hurry up. ”
Gu Xiqian glanced at Luoquan, and there was emotion and gratitude in her eyes. Touched by Luoquan's support for herself, she is grateful to Luoquan for being a support for her at this time. Thinking of this, the two of them did not dare to delay any longer, and hurriedly set off towards the South Vietnamese Kingdom.
"A bunch of garbage, actually let people run under your noses. Whatever you are raising you for, I will be punished!" ”
Mo Xuanyin didn't worry about Gu Xiqian, did she come to see her. Before going in, he also gave himself psychological construction, no matter what Gu Xiqian said or did, he would bear it, after all, he was sorry for her first.
As a result, after entering, I didn't see Gu Xiqian's figure at all, but a palace maid lying on the ground, disheveled. Mo Xuanyin immediately realized that the situation was not right, and called the people outside in loudly.
"This ...... Back to the emperor, the minions didn't see the queen go out at all, how could this be ......"
After the eunuch guarding outside came in, he was so frightened that he immediately knelt down. They knew the importance of the task, and they didn't dare to blink at the door, but they didn't expect to let Gu Xiqian go out now.
"Before that, anyone came and did something, explain everything to me......"
Mo Xuanyin didn't dare to lie in front of him, but now that Gu Xiqian disappeared out of thin air, how could he find a reason?
"Back to the emperor, there is indeed a person who came to find the queen mother, the person who looks the same as you......"
As soon as Mo Xuanyin asked, the eunuchs immediately remembered. reported truthfully to Mo Xuanyin, and his tone stumbled.
"He? Did the queen go out with him? ”
Mo Xuanyin knew that this person was Luoquan when he heard it, and his brows furrowed even deeper. If Gu Xiqian really left with Luoquan, the truth would have come out.
"This ...... We didn't see the queen go out, but before that person appeared, the palace maid who gave the queen something went out, and no one went out after that, and we don't know what happened. ”
The eunuchs were confused, mainly because they had never seen Gu Xiqian go out at all, and it was the palace maids who were going back and forth from beginning to end.
"Okay, I see, you all go down......"
Mo Xuanyin exhaled deeply, closed his eyes, and clasped his hands tightly together, forcibly suppressing the anger in his heart, and letting these people in front of him go out.
When the eunuchs heard that they were liberated, they did not dare to linger at all, and ran out even crawling and rolling.
"Falling Spring...... Sure enough, it was you, I really didn't expect that you would do such a thing behind my back! ”
Mo Xuanyin raised his hand and punched the table, and the table was split in an instant. There is no need to ask any further questions, the matter is already obvious. Luoquan used drugs to enchant the palace maid, asked Gu Xiqian to change into the palace maid's clothes, and Gu Xiqian knew some simple disguise techniques, painted herself as a palace maid, and escaped smoothly.
The two people he trusted the most betrayed him like this. Mo Xuanyin was angry, but he also felt ridiculous. Now he's completely alone, it's sad!
Mo Xuanyin strode out of Gu Xiqian's palace and returned to his imperial study. The more I thought about it, the more I felt that I was not angry, and if he didn't do something, he would probably be driven crazy by himself.
"Come out!"
He sat there and shouted casually, and a man came out of the shadows, and stood there respectfully.
"Immediately go to track down the whereabouts of the queen mother, after finding the person, first target the person, you must remember, don't startle the snake, come back quickly, and report to me!"
Mo Xuanyin arranged for someone to track down where Gu Xiqian is now, in fact, where is Gu Xiqian's destination, Mo Xuanyin knows it in his heart. But there was an accident in everything, and he couldn't predict what would happen on the road. If you can stop people before Gu Xiqian arrives in South Vietnam, it will naturally be the best.
The Dark Guard received the order, dodged, and then disappeared again.
At this moment, Gu Xiqian and Luoquan had already arrived at the border of South Vietnam. Along the way, they were also on guard against Mo Xuanyin all the time, afraid that Mo Xuanyin would find them so soon.
"We should be safe for the time being, after all, we are already in the territory of South Vietnam. Even if Mo Xuanyin comes over, I'm afraid I won't be able to find our people easily. Let's take a break here and get back on our way later. ”
Falling Springs surveyed the surroundings to determine where they were now. finally relaxed a little in his heart, and seeing that Gu Xiqian was still at a loss, he opened his mouth to comfort.
"That's fine, by the way, you can find out about the news around here. It's definitely not okay to come here so rashly and not understand anything. ”
Gu Xiqian nodded, she came without any consideration because of the urgency of the situation. Now that he has settled down, he finds himself in the dark about the current situation in South Vietnam. It's better to ask around here first and see what clues there are.
"Please, okay, we haven't eaten in days, adults don't care, children can't bear it!"
Gu Xiqian and Luoquan had just approached an inn and were ready to eat. Suddenly, several begging people appeared at the door, large and small, in tattered clothes, with hungry faces, and their eyes glowing at the food, obviously they had not eaten for a long time.
This situation is not uncommon, and there are people living in poverty everywhere, let alone in this border area, under normal circumstances, it is not unusual.
But the words in their mouths attracted Gu Xiqian's attention. Their words sounded a little strange to Gu Xiqian. It seems that they weren't like this before, but they suddenly encountered a change that made them like this.
Ordinary begging will just say okay, okay, give something to eat. Where to divide adults and children.
"I don't know how many times a day. I'm here for a restaurant, not for charity. Hurry up somewhere else and don't disturb my business! ”
The boss looked impatient and hurriedly blasted them away. But the expression on his face looked more helpless.
"What's going on? Will there be a lot of begging people coming here every day? These people look like they are in the prime of life, and they have the ability to work, so they won't starve to death! ”
Gu Xiqian couldn't bear it anymore and came over to inquire about the situation. If these beggars said something that he could accept, the boss's words made her unable to sit still.
"I look like you're new here, and I don't know what's going on here. Now the Lanling Kingdom and the South Vietnamese Kingdom are at war. Since ancient times, isn't it our common people who have suffered from wars! For a while, how many people have lost their homes, and they have not even had a place to live, let alone work......"
The boss sighed and gave Gu Xiqian an explanation. If he could, he wouldn't want to look at these children so pitiful. But during the war, business was not easy to do, and he had to support his family, so he had more than enough to do.
"Do you mean that there are suddenly a lot more people like this during this time?"
Gu Xiqian sighed in her heart, and asked with some hesitation.
"Yes, the war destroyed our home. We can't live there, so we have to flee this way. Not only a few of us, but people from that area have come over. We can understand the boss, I'm afraid there are a lot of people coming every day during this time, right? ”
Before the boss could answer, the beggar standing outside spoke first. Their tone was very sad, and it was very moving to look at.
"Do you all live in the same place now, can you take me there?"
Gu Xiqian's voice was completely trembling, she didn't dare to imagine how many people had lost their homes, and they didn't even have a basic livelihood. So I wanted to see it with my own eyes and find out what the people are doing today.
"Yes, come with us if you want!"
The beggar nodded, turned around and led the way in front, Gu Xiqian made a gesture to Luoquan, and the two of them followed together to that side.
"Look, there's another man. If the number of people continues to increase like this, we will not be able to eat! ”
"No, looking at what they're wearing, they don't look like people who can't eat!"
"What's different about this, we weren't like this before. It's not like I haven't eaten the last meal yet. ”
