Chapter 189: Escape from South Vietnam (I)
Subsequently, Gu Miaoxuan and the others went back to the palace and continued to interrogate Wei Zilan, but unexpectedly, Wei Zilan was still in a coma.
"Uh... This is a very normal phenomenon, Miss Wei should have been greatly stimulated, so she couldn't wake up for a while, please come back tomorrow. Liu Zhi came out of the room and said.
With Liu Zhi's words, everyone didn't go in, so they could only wait until tomorrow morning to make plans.
"Well, I can only help you get here, and then you have to deal with it yourself." Looking at Wei Zilan, who was asleep, Liu Zhi shook his head helplessly.
The next morning, when the emperor heard the news of Gu Xiqian's escape, he was furious.
"What do you say? The prisoner actually escaped, what did you do? Didn't you say that you would be optimistic about her? The emperor looked at Mu Chuan excitedly and asked.
"Father, don't worry, I'll go and chase people back immediately!" Makikawa hugged his fists, and then left the main hall quickly.
"Wait, you said you caught Wei Zilan in the mansion last night?" The emperor said.
Makikawa said what happened, of course, the bad intentions of entering the room were drowned, but obviously the emperor's attention was not on these things.
"Okay, you interrogate people, and then dispose of them as you please, now go and bring them back to me immediately!"
Looking at the expression of the emperor's atmosphere, Makikawa answered and left the hall.
In the entire early dynasty, there were basically few ministers who were willing to speak, because Gu Xiqian's escape made the emperor's face a little uncomfortable, and if he was talking bad news at this time, he would definitely be punished.
When he went back to prepare, looking at Wei Zilan, Mu Chuan was a little embarrassed, so he ordered his subordinates to send Wei Zilan back to Wei Mansion.
Seeing that Mu Chuan was willing to let him go, Wei Zilan just thanked him, and then left the palace.
The princess of Lanling Kingdom on the side looked unwilling, "Why do you want to let her go, I finally have this opportunity, I still lack a girl here." ”
I saw Mu Chuan turn his head to look at her and said, "She is the aunt of the county lord of Yanguo, you let her give you the current person?" ”
On the other side, the emperor after the end of the early dynasty and Gu Miaoxuan discussed the follow-up of this incident.
"It seems that Muchuan has already set off, and the relevant official documents have been sent, if other checkpoints receive it, they will naturally help us stop them." The emperor took a sip of tea and said.
However, this reply was still a little uneasy for Gu Miaoxuan, because Gu Xiqian had left Nanyue Country before, and now she couldn't see Gu Xiqian kneeling in front of her, she wouldn't believe the so-called news.
"Hmph, where else can they go now? Even if the two of them are on horseback, they are only at the checkpoint now, and there is still a day before the border, but if they ride a horse or use a carriage, they will be easily spotted, so they will choose to disguise themselves as ordinary people to hurry, in this case, we still have time. Gu Miaoxuan said.
When the emperor heard this, he replied calmly: "Since this is the case, what is there to worry about?" According to the time, Makikawa estimates that he will be able to bring people back the day after tomorrow. ”
Although she said that, Gu Miaoxuan was still a little puzzled, why did she look for so many places, but she couldn't find any traces of Gu Xiqian? Where did she fall to the ground and hide last night? And why hasn't there been news of their departure from the city? So she's still in the capital?
However, Gu Miaoxuan always had a feeling that Gu Xiqian had already left the capital, and it was with the help of someone else.
The Shizi Mansion, the Wei Mansion, and the Xiangwang Mansion have all been searched, so where else can they provide hiding places?
For Gu Miaoxuan, this is a noteworthy problem, because if she doesn't pay attention, even if she catches Gu Xiqian back, she will still be able to leave the capital next time, so there is no point in keeping circulating.
"Do you think it's really okay to leave it to Makikawa? Aren't you afraid that Mu Chuan will be reluctant to let them go? Gu Miaoxuan said.
"He made it up, of course he let him solve it himself, and, besides Makikawa, do we have anyone else to use?" The emperor looked at Gu Miaoxuan and asked.
It is true that now Muchuan is the only person they can use, and the Yunnan Kingdom and the Yan Kingdom have always been their top problems, and all the generals are ready to fight, so they naturally have no manpower.
However, Gu Miaoxuan didn't believe Mu Chuan, and even this time it was a pursuit, and she felt that the emperor deliberately let Mu Chuan let them go.
"Anyway, it's good to be able to bring people back, but don't you think it's a little strange, Your Majesty? This time, it's as if they were prepared, and they were able to save people right under our noses, but was there anyone else secretly helping them? Gu Miaoxuan reminded.
Of course, the emperor understood what she meant: "I know, you mean the matter of the Wei Mansion, and it is also bold to arrange someone to transfer the contract, and I will naturally not let them go." ”
On the other hand, when Wei Yunmo was about to go over to save people, he found that Wei Zilan came back safe and sound.
"Little sister, how are you? You okay? Wei Yunmo looked at Wei Zilan and said excitedly.
Wei Zilan waved her hand: "It's okay, big brother, the county lord has already left, right?" ”
"Don't worry, they're all safe, but let them figure it out on their own." Lin Shanshan responded.
At this time, I saw shouts outside.
Wei Ziyi came out and said coldly: "It seems that we also have a problem now." ”
At this time, I saw Gu Miaoxuan coming over with someone, looked at them coldly and said: "General Wei, because you helped the prisoner Gu Xiqian escape, now I will take you back, if you dare to do it, then don't blame me for being rude." ”
Seeing that the other party was overwhelmed, Wei Yunmo had no choice but to say: "Princess, if there is no evidence for such an empty matter, even you will be charged with insulting the court officials." ”
"Less nonsense, come on, fence me up!" Gu Miaoxuan waved her hand, and saw the soldiers surrounding them, looking at them majestically.
Wei Yunmo protected Lin Shanshan behind him, and swept his cold eyes towards the people around him, and suddenly the soldiers were stunned, not daring to go up and make a move.
"You arrest people if you don't agree like this, are you so unreasonable?" Lin Shanshan said.
"Wei Zilan transferred with the prisoner last night, and now the evidence is conclusive, and the capital crime can be avoided and the living crime is unforgivable!" Gu Miaoxuan said.
However, at this time, Lin Shanshan didn't know where to get the courage, so she stood up directly and said to Gu Miaoxuan: "How do you know that this is a transfer of bags, will you find out that the prisoner left, and then find my aunt to fill the number, according to me, you are also suspicious!" ”
Lin Shanshan's words made everyone dumbfounded, but it is not impossible to think about it, although it is not in fact.
"You... What did you say? It's a great sin, how could we possibly do such a thing? Gu Miaoxuan retorted.
"Oh? Seeing that you stutter, is it because your heart is empty? From this point of view, you are also very suspicious, I see, you are just afraid that the emperor will find out, so you will preemptively slander us, right? Lin Shanshan continued to chase after the victory.
The soldiers on the side also looked at each other, and even the people behind were whispering, discussing Lin Shanshan's words just now.
"If you don't have any evidence, don't say that we casually transfer contracts with people, isn't it that you deliberately found someone to fill the number, and the East Window incident happened? If you don't have proof, then please leave! ”
When Gu Miaoxuan wanted to say something, she saw the entourage on the side and said: "Princess, we have no evidence, and the situation is unfavorable now, so let's leave first and then make plans." ”
"Humph! Don't let me find evidence, or I want your family to have a hard time!" After speaking, Gu Miaoxuan left with someone.
After watching everyone leave, everyone also admired Lin Shanshan.
"Sister-in-law, if it were yours, if it were me, I would have done it with them a long time ago." Wei Zilan said excitedly.
"Sister-in-law, thank you so much this time." Wei Ziyi said.
However, Wei Yunmo sighed: "With an ancient spirit like you, I don't think the princess will do anything to us for a while, but let's not be careless in the future, and quickly contact King Xiang to destroy all the evidence." ”
After arranging everything, Wei Yunmo began to worry a little about Gu Xiqian them, because they had not yet reached the border, and the people on the other side of the checkpoint naturally did not have the soldiers in the capital to talk to.
At this time, Gu Ronghe and Gu Xiqian, who were on the way to the border in a carriage, began to be a little tired physically and mentally because of the night's rush, but now they can't rest, not only because they will run behind the chasing soldiers, but the checkpoints in front are still difficult.
"Big brother, we've all been gone all night, and you're tired too, so take a break." Gu Xiqian looked at Gu Ronghe and said.
Gu Ronghe said calmly: "I'm fine, if you're tired, just rest for a while, we have to hold on to the border to be safe, and we can't stop during this time." ”
Even though his voice was still pretending to be calm, his voice began to become a little hoarse, his eyes began to fog, and even the horses on the road could not stand it and slowed down.
Thinking that there may be pursuers behind, a carriage will definitely be discovered if it reaches the checkpoint.
Thinking of this, Gu Ronghe sighed helplessly: "Although it will be slower, safety is more important." ”
According to the road map agreed in advance, Gu Ronghe has already avoided several checkpoints by taking a long detour, but there are still two checkpoints before he reaches the border, and the next is not a problem that can be solved by a detour, not to mention that there are chasing soldiers from the capital, and they can't stop.
When they came to the town in front of the checkpoint, Gu Ronghe and Gu Xiqian got out of the car, put on the face mask that Liuyun had prepared for them, and made a bold decision to sell the carriage and walk through the checkpoint to Yunnan on foot.
