Chapter 31 Leaks

A few days later, the three of them successfully crossed several mountains and forests and came to a town under the rule of Langzhou.

"Let's go buy a mule cart." Li Wen glanced at the exhausted Jianing and said to Uncle Han Zai.

Han nodded again, "You two are resting in the forest, I'll come when I go." ”

After discovering traces of killers entrenched at various intersections on the road, he concluded that someone was really looking for Li Wen everywhere.

Then, Li Wen must not appear in front of people.

It is necessary to buy horses and mules for transportation, otherwise this long journey will not be possible with the strength of the feet alone.

Walking to the remote place, Han took off his mask and put it in his arms, revealing a hideous scar on his face, like a purple-red centipede lying on his originally handsome right cheek.

He stooped down and dug a piece of red mud from a piece of land, slowly rubbed it on his face, and then straightened up and strode towards the town.

The Mansion of the Eldest Princess of Luojing.

Princess Fule sat on the Luohan chair with a gloomy face, holding a letter in her hand, which was written to Yuzhu by her daughter Jianing.

On the floor tiles in front of her, there were two girls kneeling in a ball.

"Damn it, you didn't take good care of your master...... Yuzhu Ziyu sobbed, kowtowing again and again to ask for guilt.

Princess Fule tightened her fingers, clenched the letter paper in her hand, and slammed a teacup on the table in front of her, "Get out!" ”

Yuzhu Ziyu, who was smashed all over the water, hurriedly bowed down and exited the room.

Aunt Mei sighed softly and soothed: "Princess, the county lord is auspicious, and with Han Zai protecting her, she should be fine." ”

The eldest princess calmed down and said hatefully: "This child is always whimsical, and in recent months, he has been even more lawless, and he has no worries for a while, so he blames the palace for being too indulgent to her on weekdays!" ”

Aunt Mei re-built a cup of fragrant tea for the princess, brought it to her, and said softly: "The county lord is kind-hearted, and it is not wrong to worry about the safety of the prince of Li Wen, but now that the world is peaceful and prosperous, she and the prince are taking the official road again, and the sprite bandits do not dare to act rashly, you are relieved, and when the county lord comes back safely, it is not too late for you to train her well." ”

The eldest princess was silent for a long time and sighed: "I still can't feel at ease. Now that the court seems to be calm, in fact, there is an undercurrent, and the major nobles are all ready to move, so the illness of the king of Qi may really have some conspiracy.

Aunt Mei, you go and arrange for sixty elite cavalry guards to quietly go to Qidi, find out the whereabouts of Ah Man and Li Wen along the way, and if you find anything abnormal, return immediately. ”

"Whoa!" Aunt Mei bowed and withdrew.

A secret room in Jinxiu Building,

Xiao Boyan sat on a pineapple couch and held a thin bamboo pipe.

He took out a small roll of paper from the bamboo tube and spread it out, and after reading it, he lit it with a candle.

"Failed the assassination mission?" He raised his eyes to look at the man in red beside him, and said expressionlessly, "Is there a leak of the news?" ”

The man in red took a sip of the teacup and said with a smile: "Leaking the wind? I haven't had such a thing in Bodhi Gate for several years, alas, it's also my carelessness, I should have sent people to pay attention to their movements since the capital. ”

It was also his negligence, who thought that the useless proton would be pinched to death with just a slight movement of his fingers, but he didn't know that it was a cunning rabbit, and he also knew how to hit the golden cicada out of his shell.

Xiao Boyan said lightly: "You must not let him return to Qizhou, otherwise, things will be complicated." ”

If the Qi Wangfu is on guard, it will not be easy to start again. If Li Wen played the assassination to Luojing again and put it on the emperor's desk, it would only disrupt his current steps, and the layout for many years would have to be redeployed.

The man in red put down the teacup in his hand and pouted slightly: "That kid doesn't know where he went, our people can't find it, so I have to use the dark piles around Qidi to go out together, it's a big deal, I'll run it myself." ”

"Thank you for your hard work, brother-in-law." Xiao Boyan smiled slightly, and said to Yue Wuxian: "This matter is not trivial, there can't be a little mistake, then Li Wen will never be able to return to Qidi or the capital alive." I'll keep an eye on Luo Jing's side, and I'll find out who is secretly helping him. ”

Yue Wuxian raised his eyebrows, "Someone secretly helped him?" If someone can really predict the prophet to see through the heavens, I am afraid that he is not a simple person. ”

Only Xiao Boyan and himself knew about their plan this time, and even the staff in his house never knew about it, and the word leaking the news was completely nonsense.

Since the beginning of the Qi Palace, he has done it seamlessly, he adheres to the idea that more things are better than less, and only arranges for killers to intercept at the crossing hundreds of miles away, and does not secretly follow Li Wen and others, for fear of adding snakes and causing people to be vigilant, who knows, but there is a big mistake in this link.

……

In the territory of Alluvial Island, Yue Wu's not simple character in the wound was wearing a white-washed begonia-colored coarse cloth dress, wearing a cyan printed turban, and sitting in a black shed carriage with braided hair.

Li Wen beside her was also dressed as a country boy, wearing a short shirt with two patches, and sat silently against the wall of the shed.

Han Zai also dressed himself as an old man, and put on a gray beard all over his face, which just covered most of the scar on his face.

Qingluan uncovered the coarse cloth on the bamboo basket, took out a piece of steamed bun and handed it to Li Wen, "Brother, you can eat something, Uncle Han Zai just bought it, and it's still hot." ”

They only served as brother and sister all the way, so Uncle Han Zai pretended to be the father who took a pair of children to go to relatives.

Li Wen took the bun, broke it into two pieces, put it in his mouth and chewed it slowly.

"Thanks to Uncle Han Zai this way, we can enter the territory of Qizhou after passing the villages and towns in front, although we have been delayed on the road for more than ten days, we have come back safely, presumably Uncle Qi Wang will be fine." Qingluan comforted Li Wen.

Li Wen smiled, "Aman, I want to thank you." ”

If it weren't for Jianing, he Li Wen would have been on a desperate journey by now.

A few days ago, they had already encountered several waves of ill-intentioned people, all of whom were killed and cleaned up by Uncle Han Zai.

Only then did he truly understand that someone really wanted to kill him.

At this time, the carriage drove to a rural road, and suddenly saw several big men at the intersection in front of them checking the passing villagers.

It was impossible to turn the carriage around, for the four men were walking towards their carriage.

"Guys, why are you stopping our carriage?" Uncle Han Zaishu spoke with a local accent and talked to these people.

"Find the fugitive." A big man held a portrait of a human face in his hand, glanced at Han Zai, then stepped forward and tore off the curtain of the car, and shouted to Qingluan and Li Wen who were sitting inside: "Come out!" ”

Qingluan stared at the beads of his eyes, and pretended to be frightened: "What do you people want to do? "The sharp dagger in his sleeve was already clenched in his hand.

The big men glanced at Qingluan, then turned their gaze to Li Wen and pointed at him: "Come out!" Do you hear that? ”

Li Wen glanced at Uncle Han Zai, and slowly moved off the carriage.

The big man compared the portrait in his hand to Li Wen's face, and waved his hand again: "Let's go!" ”

As soon as Li Wen wanted to turn around, the man had already slashed his neck.

With a bang, the sharp blade in the big man's hand was knocked away by Uncle Han Zai, and when the knife fell in his hand, the big man had been stabbed into the throat by a steel knife.
