The person who came to deliver the letter was Wu Yi, a sergeant at the post station, and Yun Yanzheng motioned for him to put the paperwork on the table, and then asked him to retreat. She opened the letter, which was sealed with red wax, and what was written inside was a letter concerned about her well-being and the war, and the place where she signed off was a handsome Chu character.

Chu Ruirong would not have sent such a letter of inquiry thousands of miles away for no reason, although he was concerned about her safety, he would not do such a useless thing.

Yun Yanzheng read it carefully again, and she put the letter in the copper dish of water on the washing shelf next to her. Soon, a line of the same handwriting slowly appeared in the blank space of the letterhead: The Imperial Mausoleum in Kyoto had an accident, and the envoys were sent to discuss it. The third brother who is under house arrest in the imperial tomb is a handle that the emperor has clamped down on her, what kind of changes will happen at this moment? She had some speculation in her heart, and asked people to invite Wu Yi in.

"What about the person who sent this letter?" She asked quietly.

Wu Yi said respectfully: "Back to Yunshuai, that person said that Ma Wuye grass is not fattened. His horses had not eaten night grass for several days, and had gone to the hill next to the inn to graze them. ”

Yun Yanzheng's eyes flashed slightly, and he nodded: "Okay, you go back first." ”

Wu Yi bowed and retreated.

Nanshan Post House Lingzeqiu.

At this moment, the night is deep, and a crescent moon hides in the treetops, flickering and flickering. The view around the hill became darker, and from time to time the cooing of night owls came and went.

Yun Yanzheng came alone, and the dead leaves on the ground creaked. She didn't know where the man was hiding, and slowly walked into the hills and forests, and gradually recognized a person's breath rising and falling slightly. The man was standing under a tree, and beside him a horse was munching on the weeds on the ground.

"Who are you?" Yun Yanzheng's gaze was still bright and clear in the dark night, staring at the man and asking a low question, standing eight steps away from him.

When the man saw her appear, he immediately bowed down, presented an object over the top between his palms, lowered his head and said, "Chu Yun see Yun Shuai." The humble position is the personal guard of the Hou Ye, and this time he came to see him by the order of the Hou Ye. There is also a secret letter handed over by the Hou Ye, which must be submitted in person as a precaution, so he let the horse minister Hou Yunshuai come here. ”

"Hmm." Yun Yanzheng looked calm, and saw that what he was holding in his hand was a jade card, and the crystal clear jasper was engraved with a rich Rong character, which was a waist card that Chu Ruirong often hung on his body, so he raised his hand and said, "You get up and speak." ”

"Xie Yunshuai." After Chu Yun thanked him, he stood up. After he put the waist card in his arms, he took out a letter in his hand, and he was about to step forward with both hands.

Yun Yanzheng smiled and said, "Chu Yun, slow down." Although the marshal is often in the barracks, it is a matter of broad daylight. But now that the night is dark, it is inconvenient for you and me to be so close, and in the final analysis, it is still a man and a woman who do not kiss. ”

Chu Yun immediately stopped, and couldn't help but be slightly stunned after hearing this, then lowered his head and said, "Yun Shuai is right. It was Chu Yun who was careless and overstepped his courtesy. ”

"There is no one else to peep into, so open the letter and hold it up for me to see." Yun Yanzheng smiled and stretched out his hand to point to the letter in his hand.

Chu Yun frowned slightly, but still did what she said, took out the letter and opened it, pinched a corner and showed it in front of her, and said, "The night is dark, can Yun Shuai see clearly?" I've got a fire here......"

Before he finished speaking, his eyes suddenly lit up.

When Chu Yun raised his eyes, he saw that Yun Yanzheng had already raised the polished fire fold, and looked at him with a smile, and he didn't realize that there seemed to be a bright and gorgeous appearance in front of him. The woman smiled beside the firelight of the night, unrestrained, like the starlight pouring down from the sky, and like a mountain of flowers blooming freely, dazzling his eyes for a moment. He didn't understand how such a graceful and incomprehensible woman could lead the world-famous Nine Heavens Ride? Why did you order the three armies to go on the battlefield to kill the enemy and defend the country in these long years? Could it be that the men who rode in the Nine Heavens joined the army for the sake of coveting her beauty, and they desperately charged to kill the enemy in order to gain her favor?

Although such a situation was somewhat ridiculous, he thought it was not impossible at the moment.

In the midst of a sudden distraction, Chu Yun finally realized that something was wrong.

He asked her to come in the name of discussing the prince Heng who was trapped in the imperial mausoleum, as the saying goes, care is chaos, how can she laugh so leisurely?

He asked her to come in the name of discussing the prince Heng who was trapped in the imperial mausoleum, as the saying goes, care is chaos, how can she laugh so leisurely?

Just as Chu Yun's face was about to change, he heard the woman's clear voice ask leisurely, "Who sent you?" Although I haven't seen Chu Yun, they all know the thoughts of the Hou Ye, and they never dare to look directly at me like you. There is also Hou Ye's waist card, which was accidentally made by me not long ago, and he was reluctant to throw it, or he kept wearing it, your piece is intact, and the chess is almost a move. ”

After Yun Yan made some mockery, Chu Yun's face suddenly became gloomy.

Although she saw through his fake, she could not only get the handwriting of Chu Ruirong, who was the leader of the Great Empire of the Ul Kingdom, to be imitated, but also clearly know the style of the waist card he was wearing, and the origin of this person was not simple.

She didn't want a wolf in front of her, a tiger behind her, and a group of dogs, thieves and rats around her, salivating and looking around, waiting for an opportunity to move.

Chu Yun suddenly whistled, and more than a dozen figures immediately appeared in the originally calm woods, all of them with bright and shivering sword light flashing in their hands. Chu Yun's originally bright eyebrows also looked a little gloomy at this moment, and he sneered: "Why should the eldest princess care about who we are? Just give your life here! ”

"You're so sure they'll be able to beat me?" Yun Yanzheng smiled slightly, her tone was soft and soft, not at all like a soldier who had been killing on the battlefield for a long time, she was dressed in white at the moment, her long hair was lightly pulled, but she looked like an innocent and graceful woman with bright eyes and bright teeth.

Chu Yun was even more puzzled, and smiled contemptuously: "The eldest princess may have come alone because of her superb martial arts. But I didn't know that when you opened the first letter, you came into contact with the red wax on it, and it was already stained with the first powder. Now the medicine hidden in the letter in my hand has been blown into your breath by the wind, and although it does not make you soften in an instant, it is enough to make you gradually lose the strength to resist. ”

Yun Yanzheng's eyes widened slightly, and only when Chu Yun smiled a little smugly did she tilt her head and say, "Then if I tell you that I have never touched that letter, it was cut on the side with a knife, and I nailed it up with a knife and threw it into the water, do you think that my knife will be poisoned?" Also, when you opened the letter, I accidentally held my breath, so will it be soft enough for you to slaughter? ”

"You ......" Chu Yun was angry, raised his hand, and said coldly: "Kill!" ”

At this moment, apart from killing, what else can make him relieve his hatred and save his lost face?

It was the woman's disguise that made him let his guard down, bewildered and gullible her weakness, and underestimated her shrewdness. As a result, his arrangement and his attitude of contempt for the enemy became a joke.

More than a dozen men in black snorted softly, all ready to attack.

"Whoosh...... A rain of arrows instantly came out of nowhere, and they all shot down in front of Yun Yanzheng, enveloping her.

The people in black were shocked, and the sound of running footsteps had sounded in the jungle, more and more, closer and closer. In the depths of the woods, only the sound of them was heard, and there was no human figure, and I did not know how many archers stood behind the big trees. With the slightest movement, the crossbow can penetrate their bodies at any time and end their lives.

The praying mantis flutters on the cicada and the yellow finch is behind.

The black-clothed man was more and more silent at the moment, and his eyes never communicated, but he seemed to have reached a consensus in the flow of breath. In the midst of the ups and downs of the third breath, the first group of black-clothed men launched an attack towards Yun Yanzheng from different directions; At the same time, the second group of men in black fended off the long arrows shot from the woods for the first group of men in black; A third group of men in black rushed into the woods on all sides to kill the arrows.

Yun Yanzheng saw that they were so tacitly understanding and had a degree of advance and retreat, and the tricks of each black-clothed person were different, but they were all very powerful, attracting people's vital points, and they seemed to be accustomed to killing. At the moment when the men in black attacked in unison, she shook off the soft whip Huo Ran with her, and the long whip struck the sword that forced back step by step like a spirit snake.

The sound of swords striking in the forest gradually died out, and the black-clothed people on the periphery were also hit by arrows one after another, and some even used their bodies to block the arrows to delay the black-clothed people who were attacking Yun Yanzheng in an all-out way. But as the arrow array approached, they were outnumbered, but they were not defeated until they lost their breath and fell.

Yun Yanzheng's personal guards arrived, formed a military formation and strangled her inside and outside, the man in black was finally invincible, and he was hit by the long whip one by one, and fell to the ground one after another, gasping for breath.

The killing in the forest gradually stopped, Yun Yanzheng looked at the black-clothed man lying on the ground, suddenly remembered something, and quickly took out a handkerchief and stuffed it into Chu Yun's mouth. But I saw him smile gloomily, and fresh blood gradually flowed out of his mouth, staining the handkerchief red, and then the blood slowly turned dark black.

Yun Yanzheng couldn't help frowning, how ruthless was this person who couldn't swallow poison and actually bit off his tongue and begged for death? She asked the rest of the people in black to inspect them, and sure enough, they had all bitten the poison sacs hidden in their gums, and they bleed to death. Judging by the martial arts moves and ways of doing things of these people, they should be assassination organizations on the rivers and lakes, I don't know who wanted to take her life?

On the territory of the country of Ul when the two countries were fighting?

How did she come prepared? Just because of the sentence "horses have no night grass and no fat" relayed in Wu Yi's mouth, Chu Ruirong was born in Houfu and never led troops to the battlefield, and the horses in the capital are all enclosed in the stables, and there are people who specialize in serving and feeding, and when did he have the habit of letting horses eat weeds at night? Chu Ruirong's cronies who can be sent must have been born in the Houfu, and the horses he rode would be handed over to the stables of the post station to feed as if they had returned to the Houfu, and the strict performance of their duties in the Houfu had naturally formed a habit. If she were to be invited for a private interview, it would definitely not be such an excuse. A person's words and deeds must be closely related to his origin, habits, and experiences.

As for why she didn't use her hands to touch the letter, it was entirely because she became more and more cautious after being poisoned. For all suspicious objects, she learned to be cautious more and more, and thought about it more, which was more or less due to the mysterious and unpredictable Gu Xi around her, which made her form a habit of being vigilant at all times.
