"Your Highness, the Prince."

Lin Mu stepped forward and saluted, and asked in a low voice, "In front of you is the General's Pass, which is the territory of the most arrogant bandit Black Wind Village, should we take a detour to avoid it?" ”

With the duties of a guard, he naturally wanted his masters to listen to the persuasion and take a detour, but the events of the previous few days and nights were still vivid, and he didn't know what His Royal Highness the Prince and that Su Qianjin were going to do, so naturally he didn't dare to make up his mind at will.

Gu Qiuyang looked at Gu Mingxuan on the side and took the lead to speak, "This prince just found a reason to give marriage and came out to play and have fun, as for other affairs, the prince is in charge." ”

The main and secondary positions are very clear, Gu Qiuyang looks like he has nothing to do with himself along the way, and he is either looking for anything delicious and fun on the road, or asking the eunuchs to find novelties to bring back to the palace.

"This son has heard of the reputation of this Black Wind Village, and it is said that they generally only seek wealth and do not kill themselves."

Saying that, Gu Mingxuan waved his hand and said indifferently, "The detour will be avoided, this matter is related to other countries, and it is necessary to return to Beijing on time." ”

Lin Mu bowed his head to accept the order, and turned around to convey Gu Mingxuan's decision.

Just when Gu Mingxuan looked at Su Lingxian, Gu Qiuyang lifted the teapot and turned his face sideways to make a look at the little eunuch who was waiting, and the clever little eunuch lifted a package to avoid the crowd and walked towards the Xiao family's carriage.

The lotus flower with the wooden stick plucking the firewood, as soon as he looked up, he saw the fair-faced little eunuch, looking at himself with a smile.

She twinkled slightly, what was the situation?

Gu Qiuyang has never revealed his identity as the prince, and the little eunuch who followed him was also dressed as an ordinary servant, and the lotus saw that this little guy was different from the ordinary people in the house, but he couldn't tell what was different for a while.

Seeing that the little eunuch reached out and handed over the package, Lotus was stunned for a moment, and then frowned in disgust.

For her, this group of people from Beijing is a family, whether it is Gu Mingxuan, Su Lingxian or Gu Qiuyang's subordinates in front of her, they are all harboring evil intentions against the Xiao family.

She didn't want to take this package, who knew what harmful things were hidden inside!

"There are some sauced beef and delicious crisps in the food box, which is a little bit of my son-in-law's heart, and I also ask Miss Su to smile."

The little eunuch smiled politely, and the hand holding the food box was sent forward again.

Lotus still looked vigilant, and didn't plan to take it at all.

"Sister Lotus, keep it."

Su Qingtian spoke at the right time, leaning on Xiao Jingmo's side and tilting his head with a sincere smile, "This little brother, thank you for your son-in-law for me." ”

Whoever doesn't listen to the lotus has to listen to the little lady, and when she took the food box, she also stuffed ten taels of silver into the palm of the little eunuch's hand.

At this time, the little eunuch suddenly felt unexpected, and his smile became more and more flattering.

"If Miss Su still lacks some things, just order the slave directly, and the slave will not bother."

Implicitly according to the etiquette of the nobles, the little eunuch turned around happily and left.

The lotus carried the food box and put it in front of Su Qingtian, untied the cloth a few times, and lifted the lid of the top layer.

Sure enough, it was the beef that the little eunuch said, full of two plates, and the next layer was three different kinds of small pastries, and I didn't know where Gu Qiuyang found it.

The girl looked at the fragrant beef, pinched a slice of it with her fingertips and put it in her mouth.

After chewing it twice, his mouth was full of meat, and he hurriedly grabbed another piece and stuffed it into Xiao Jingmo's mouth beside him.

"Although we are invincible, we can't take it lightly."

Xiao Hanyue, like the lotus, thought that Gu Qiuyang and the other two were hostile to the Xiao family, and looked at the girl's defenseless appearance, and couldn't help but preach.

"The eldest uncle should know the identity of that son."

Seeing Xiao Hanyue nodded, she brought the plate to the man, and said in a low voice, "Didn't the eldest uncle notice that he and Gu Mingxuan were at odds with each other?" ”

This statement made Xiao Hanyue stunned, he only knew that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince was ignorant of the world, and he didn't see anything else.

"Dad, the prince once sent secret guards to protect us in the dark."

Xiao Jingmo opened his mouth coldly and explained for Su Qingtian, "If he really wants to be unfavorable to us, he can completely watch Gu Mingxuan and Su Lingxian make a move against us, why waste effort to protect our family." ”

After speaking, Xiao Jingmo just ate meat with his head bored, and did not explain too much.

The girl around her couldn't help but start choosing small pastries, and she ate them one by one.

Listening to Yizi's words, Xiao Hanyue fell silent, but the vigilance on her face was only half relaxed.

None of the characters wandering in the imperial power are simple, he doesn't believe anyone who walks out of the capital, even if Gu Qiuyang shows a little kindness to them, there must be a deeper reason behind it that is unfavorable to the Xiao family.

Uncle's worries Su Qingtian understood, but many things were really difficult to explain, she only knew that the beef and pastries in front of her were particularly attractive, so she picked up a piece and stuffed it into Xiao Hanyue's hand.

"Ahead is the General's Pass."

Several people sat around the campfire and ate for a while, and Nie Chen, who had been silent, suddenly opened his mouth, "I only hope that the mountain bandits in Heifeng Village will seek wealth as always." ”

He couldn't predict whether Su Lingxian would buy the bandits to attack them in advance, and he couldn't predict whether there would be other people waiting in the General's Pass.

Su Qingtian took a bite of the sauce beef leisurely, and the corners of her mouth curved into a small crescent.

Last time was Su Lingxian's home stadium, and today it was his turn to find the field.

After all, this kind of drama of playing tricks in the shadows, the two sides must have a back and forth to make others enjoy it, so that everyone is high-spirited and can't stop!

After Nie Chen finished speaking, the shouts of the guards over there came.

The horse team marched again, and when the group arrived at the General's Pass, it was also nearly dusk.

What worried Xiao Hanyue happened, Gu Mingxuan actually let the team rest in place and stay overnight in General Pass.

Xiao Jingmo took the lead in clearing the surrounding terrain, and the more he surveyed, the tighter his brows wrinkled.

The location of the overnight stay is easy to attack and difficult to defend, if the mountain bandits really come, they are trapped beasts in a cage, and they can only be beaten.

If the guards are skilled in martial arts and fight to the death, they still have room to fight back.

Pity......

His gaze swept over Gu Mingxuan and Su Lingxian, afraid that these two would not let the guards make a move at all.

Xiao Jingmo subconsciously leaned towards Su Qingtian's side, although he knew the little girl's strength, he still didn't want the little girl to suffer half of the grievances.

Xiao Hanyue's heart was also dull at this time, in the face of the mountain bandits, they should be able to retreat with their whole body, but they were afraid that Gu Mingxuan and others would secretly cheat, and they couldn't prevent it.

During the repair period, Gu Mingxuan sent his henchmen to the Black Wind Village early in the morning, and at the same time informed the other party of the route of his horse team.

But when the henchman came back to report the time, he brought very bad news.

The second boss of the Black Wind Village clashed with the big boss, and the second brother left the cottage with a group of diehards, ready to start another mountain.

Gu Mingxuan was afraid that this wave of people would attack suddenly, so he ordered people to temporarily rest in the territory of Black Wind Village.

After all, the boss of Black Wind Village promised to keep them safe within his territory.
