The third day of Chuxiu's return from King Mu's mansion happened to be the first day of the seventh month. News came from the Imperial City of Nanxi that Emperor Nie had decreed that he would marry King Mu and order him to marry the daughter of Zuo Xiang Zhuang Qin as his wife, that is, the justifiable Princess Mu.

As soon as the news came out, it immediately caused an uproar in the north and south! As we all know, King Mu is a man of horses, born in a traveling family, and has a lot of prestige among military generals, but he has few supporters among the ministers. But Zuo Xiang Zhuang Qin is not only the head of the civil ministers, but also the protégés all over the world! King Mu and Zuo Xiang are married, what does this mean?

It means that Emperor Nie has begun to support King Mu's status among the ministers. In other words, Emperor Nie wanted to let King Mu cultivate both civil and military. After further analysis, King Mu is probably the candidate for the prince in Emperor Nie's heart......

This is a big blow to the fourth prince Fu Wang, who has just won the support of the Ming family. It must be known that Empress Mingzhen's brother is the right minister Ming Cheng, and the future father-in-law of King Mu is the left minister Zhuang Qin......

One right phase and one left phase are notoriously uneasy in the Nanxi Dynasty. The right gets along with the world smoothly, and the left is upright and lonely, both in terms of personality and political views. And these two people also contain each other, subtly balancing the internal situation in the DPRK.

As far as the current situation is concerned, the right minister is slightly better, because his sister is the queen of the current dynasty; But Zuo Xiangsheng has many protégés, and he is also highly respected among the people of Nanxi. This time, King Mu married Zuo Xiang, obviously Emperor Nie intended to make him the prince. If this is the case, I am afraid that the title of the "descendant" of the Ming clan will be replaced by the Zhuang clan sooner or later, and Ming Cheng, the uncle and right minister, will probably not be able to compete with the future national uncle and left minister.

After Chuxiu got the news, she was even more anxious:

First, Emperor Nie gave marriage to King Mu, King Fu will not sit still, the two kings are about to seize the heir, and King Mu will take the first step to restrain Shen Yu nearby, in order to blackmail the Marquis of Wenchang;

Second, King Mu is about to go to the imperial city of Jingzhou to marry Zuo Xiang's daughter, if he is allowed to go first, even if Shen Yu follows and leaves Fangzhou, it is very likely that he will be ambushed by him on the road;

Third, now that Emperor Nie has openly expressed his support for King Mu, and the Yun family is secretly funding, King Mu's chance of winning is obviously greater. If King Fu really fails to seize the heir, the entire Wenchang Marquis Mansion will suffer, if you want to keep Shen Yu, you must let him marry Yun Xiangrong as soon as possible!

The arrow is on the bow, Shen Yu has to go!

Out of Xiu had to go to King Mu's Mansion again, and Mingli congratulated King Mu on his wedding. She knew that the marriage of the prince of Nanxi would be completed in the imperial city when he married his wife, and Emperor Nie himself would preside over it, so she cautiously inquired: "When is Your Highness going to leave for Jingzhou to complete the marriage?" ”

"I'm going to leave soon." King Mu replied very vaguely: "This time the king will go to Beijing, and he will come and go for at least four months, and if he plans properly, everything can be settled." ”

Leaving soon? What day is it? Does it conflict with your own plans? Izumi was thinking in her heart, but she had a smile on her face: "The concubine went first, congratulations to His Royal Highness for getting what he wanted." ”

When King Mu heard this, he didn't show his pride in the words, and after a moment of silence, he suddenly asked: "This king is not in Fangzhou in this April, please come and see Luanshu as soon as possible." ”

Out of Xiu happily responded: "Your Highness, rest assured, the concubine and Concubine Luan are not only related, but also bring the past." The concubine will often come to talk to the mother. ”

This time he came to visit, and Izuku originally thought that King Mu would be high-spirited, but who would have thought that he would be so lonely in his words.

At this moment, the peerless King Nan Ximu is just an infatuated person. The woman he loved didn't love him, he got Luan's long-cherished body, but he couldn't get Luan's long-cherished heart. Now, she has to marry someone else for the sake of power...... Love is a word, love is not allowed, and the most uncomfortable thing is just that.

In contrast, at least she and Yun Ci once knew and fell in love......

Thinking of this, Izumi couldn't help but feel a little sympathetic to King Mu. But for the sake of Shen Yu, she had to force herself to harden her heart and take this opportunity to calculate him: "The Yun family's money is all over the place, since you are about to move, why don't you take this opportunity to let the secret guards go to various places to escort the cash back, in case you need it from time to time." ”

I don't know if it was because he was about to gain power, or because of the frustration in the love scene, King Mu didn't think much about it, and almost without thinking, he accepted this request and gave the customs clearance documents used by Dexiu to leave Fangzhou.

Fearing that King Mu would repent, he hurriedly summoned the secret guards while the iron was hot, and ordered them to go to various places to escort the cash of Yun's money village. Xiu knew that she couldn't hide this matter from Mrs. Tai, so she also told the truth and got Mrs. Tai's approval.

But there was one thing she didn't be honest with Mrs. Tai - she was going to send Shen Yu out of the city in these secret guards.

This method has been brewing for a long time, even if Yun Xiangrong is not killed halfway, she is already ready to send Shen Yu out of the city according to this method. It's just that now, with Yun Xiangrong's forced marriage, the suspicion after sending Shen Yu away will be much smaller, at least for the sake of the Yun family's huge financial support, King Mu will probably not suspect her of helping Shen Yu escape. After all, Shen Yu is now considered King Mu's enemy, and the Yun family is King Mu's ally.

*****

July 15, the night of the full moon, but it is destined that the man and the moon cannot be reunited. Mrs. Chuxiu, the new head of the Yun family, personally sent two hundred dark guards out of the city and escorted the cash back to various places.

Xia Feng was originally slowly, but Xiu felt that the wind was hunting, she looked at the dark night in the wilderness, and the two hundred secret guards on standby in the night, and her heart was mixed. This time, she used the public for personal gain. Use the escort cash as a guise and two hundred secret guards as a guise to send Shen Yu out of the city.

One of the most mysterious organizations in the world, Yunfu has nurtured dead soldiers for hundreds of years, who are not only loyal and obedient to orders, but also highly skilled and skilled in martial arts, far more than the most disciplined armies in the North and South. Because most of them act at night, and they never show their true faces, they get a title over time - "Yun's Secret Guard".

After the secret guards who went to Quzhou, Huizhou and other places left one after another, the last group of secret guards were also ready. Everyone was dressed in nocturnal black, their faces were covered with silver masks, and their left shoulders were embroidered with the auspicious cloud logo of the Yun clan, and they knelt down respectfully and stood by.

Although they were kneeling, their posture was extremely tall and ...... Death is like home.

The last group of guards tonight is also the best of the fifty guards. Their mission is to go to Jingzhou to escort the money, but secretly there is actually a more important task - escorting Shen Yu.

This is the safest way that Izumi can think of, and it is also the limit of what she can do.

Obviously knew that Shen Yu was hiding in this group of people, but because the secret guards were all wearing uniform black night clothes, and they were all covered with armor, so Xiu couldn't recognize it, and she didn't know which one of them was Shen Yu.

In order to be real and to attract King Mu's attention, Izuxiu has not seen him for a long time, and they rely on Zhuyang to communicate with each other secretly. She actually wanted to look at Shen Yu again and tell him again, just because she knew that after today, there would be no goodbye.

People are not grass and trees, who can be ruthless. In the face of Shen Yuyi's affectionate dedication, Izumi was not indifferent. can be moved to be moved, grateful to be grateful, she has no chance with him in the end. No one can replace Yun Ci's position in her heart, no one ......

Thinking about it, the tip of her nose was a little sour. But in front of these secret guards, she can't cry, she has to maintain the majesty of being the head of the house. Holding back tears, Izuku swept her eyes over everyone one by one, trying to find the familiar figure, but she was ultimately disappointed.

That's it! This should be a good thing, proving that Shen Yu is hiding deep enough! Even she couldn't recognize her, presumably even if King Mu was present, she wouldn't be able to recognize her.

Out of Xiu only stared at his throat and said coldly: "You are the best of the best secret guards, you have never been defeated, this time you can only succeed, you must send people to Jingzhou safely!" ”

"I will not be dishonored!" More than fifty people replied in unison, as if they could sacrifice everything for the Yun clan's orders anytime and anywhere.

Izuku nodded slightly at the leader of the dark guard, and the leader said to everyone: "Let's go!" After that, a group of black shadows had turned over and mounted their horses, and their movements were uniform and neat.

In the middle of the night, the summer wind blew, accompanied by the neighing of many horses in the wilderness. Izuku sat back in the carriage, her eyes slightly closed to ignore the sudden sadness of parting.

The chariot began to roll and roll again, and the sound of galloping in his ears kept ringing, and it was the secret guards who set off. They all held the documents specially approved by King Mu, and no one would stop them from going out of the city at night. As long as you can get out of Yanlan City...... Shen Yu's escape was half the battle.

Out of Xiu clenched his palms and let the carriage drive back to Yunfu. For some reason, she only felt that her heart was beating extremely fast, and in addition to the sadness of being separated from Shen Yu, there was also a feeling of panic and uneasiness.

After a long time, just when the carriage was about to return to Yunfu, Izuku seemed to remember something, and suddenly opened his eyes and said to the driving bamboo shadow: "Go to the South City Gate!" ”

Yunfu is located in the north of Yanlan City, but to go to Jingzhou, you have to go from the south gate. If you go to the South City Gate at this time, you will almost have to pass through the entire Yanlan City! Zhuying felt a little surprised, but he didn't dare to disobey Izumi's intentions, so he had to turn the car around and drive in the opposite direction.

I don't know if it was a coincidence or the providence in the dark, but at this moment, a black figure rode a horse and galloped over, and the silver mask could be seen shining from a distance. Out of Xiu lifted the curtain and looked at it, thinking it was Shen Yu, but who knew that when he got closer, he looked closer, and it was the leader of the secret guard.

"Madame! King Mu's men and horses intercepted the brothers at the southern city gate! said that he had to take off his mask one by one and see his appearance before letting him leave. The leader turned over and dismounted, and said urgently.

Izumi was shocked when he heard this, and secretly said that King Mu had discovered something? "Ridiculous! What is he Nie Peihan when I am the Yun Clan? Izumi was annoyed and afraid, so she had to give herself courage and said to the leader: "You go back and tell them first, and I will arrive later!" I'll wait until I get there. ”

The leader of the Dark Guard was ordered to leave.

Seeing this, Zhuying couldn't help but speed up the car, but in half an hour, he had already arrived at the south city gate, at least half an hour earlier than usual.

The full moon in the sky has been quietly hidden in the dense dark clouds, as if to indicate that there will be an unusual war and change tonight. Out of Xiu didn't dare to slack off in his spirit, and the carriage didn't stop and couldn't wait to lift the curtain to look.

There were several torches under the south gates. Under the firelight, the two groups of people were facing off nervously. A group of people in military uniforms, there are more than 100 people, and at first glance they are the personal guards under the command of King Mu; The other group of people were covered in silver light, dressed in black, no more, no less, exactly fifty people, who were the last group of Yun secret guards to leave the city, and they were also the ones who were going to Jingzhou to escort Shen Yu.

Before I arrived, I felt a bloody and murderous aura from afar, and my mind sank into the abyss. Muwang ...... Still skeptical!

After a few moments of thought, the carriage had stopped. Out of the carriage with the support of the bamboo shadow, and pretended to be calm and said to the leader of King Mu's guards: "The concubine is out of the Yun family, and I want to ask to see His Royal Highness King Mu." ”

At this time, it was difficult for Izumi to suppress the tremor in her voice, but fortunately, the atmosphere on the scene was stagnant and tense, and the two groups of people were highly concentrated, so no one noticed her strangeness. Only when Fang Cai Zhuying helped her get out of the car, she could feel the cold sweat in her cold palms.

King Mu is really strict in governing the army. If he were a soldier in other armies, he would have been unable to hide his curiosity when he heard the words "Yun's Clan", and he would have looked back a long time ago. But King Mu's personal guards did not move at all, and their faces were tense and confronted the secret guards, like wax figures. Only the leader followed the prestige and said politely: "I have seen Madame." ”

Where does Xiu still have the leisure to be polite with him, and he can't help but say again: "It's annoying that Lord Lao has passed it on, there must be some misunderstanding in this." I, the Yun Clan's secret guard, went out of the city, but I got a warrant from King Mu! ”

"This king is here." As soon as Izuxiu's words fell, a tall man in black had walked out of the crowd of guards, with his hands behind his back, with a charming smile on his face, his demeanor was peerless, and he couldn't tell who he was, who was not King Mu Nie Peihan?

He actually came to the South City Gate in person!

It seems that Shen Yu will not be able to escape this catastrophe!

Izuku subconsciously looked at the fifty secret guards, and was sure that he couldn't tell which one was Shen Yu, so he calmed down slightly. She almost gritted her teeth, and reluctantly raised her eyebrows and asked King Mu: "What does Your Highness mean by this?" Didn't you give these guards permission to leave the city? ”

"Naturally, this king allowed it," Mu Wang smiled unchanged, and looked at Chu Xiu with a peerless face, "But this king has changed his mind now." If you want to go out of the city, you must take off your mask, and you can only let you go after the king himself has examined the people. ”

Izuxiu's heart sank suddenly, and the expression on his face was even more solemn: "Why does Your Highness bother with this?" You can know that the Yun Clan's secret guards never show their true faces. If they take off their masks, they will die. ”

"There are exceptions to everything, don't they?" King Mu seemed to have made up his mind and remained unmoved, he glanced in the direction of the dark guards, and then looked at Chu Xiu and said, "It is precisely because these secret guards are burdened with heavy responsibilities that this king must be extremely careful. ”

Extreme caution? Izuku sneered: "Then why didn't King Mu check the first few batches of secret guards who went out of the city, but he was embarrassed by the batch that went to Jingzhou?" She tried her best to look confident, and her face sank like water and asked again: "Your Highness, does you believe in concubines?" Still don't believe in the Yun family? ”
