"Now that I have no evidence, even if I go to see the emperor, the emperor won't believe me, right?"

Su Liuye frowned, with worry on her face, that's what Chu San told her.

"Of course not." The county lord of Anyang did not hide it, "I won't hide it from you, there has been a commotion on the border recently, and it should be a barbarian." The barbarians have been a big trouble for our dynasty for many years, and it will definitely be a good thing for them to come this time, the emperor has been worrying about the border recently, there is no evidence of your injury, and it is useless for me to take you over to see the emperor, maybe it will anger the emperor. ”

The county lord of Anyang said, thinking, "You might as well stay in my mansion during this time, I have asked the secret guards to continue the investigation, and if they find clues, they will notify me immediately." The fifth princess seems to be dignified and generous, but in fact she is narrow-minded and grudgeful, and if she knows that you are investigating this matter, she will definitely find a way to get rid of you in case her secret is leaked. ”

"Then there is Lord Law."

Su Liuye's idea was exactly like this, and the county lord of Anyang took the initiative to mention it, so she naturally would not refuse.

Yu Qiao had already packed up the room she was going to live in, and Su Liuye also wrote a letter and sent someone back to Uncle Zhou, so as not to worry Uncle Zhou.

In the past few days of the New Year, the county lord of Anyang was invited by the nobles of various families from time to time, while Su Liuye stayed in the county lord's mansion, watched Gu Xuanyi move everything away, and finally asked the scholar to send the signed and signed book to the county lord's mansion.

The county lord of Anyang didn't say anything after seeing it, so he signed his name on it, and her marriage with Gu Xuanyi ended.

Su Liuye wanted to open his mouth to persuade him, but the county lord of Anyang continued to be busy as if he had nothing to do, and Su Liuye's comfort on his lips became superfluous.

stayed in the county lord's mansion until early spring, Xiao Wu suddenly came to the county lord's mansion to look for her, and hurriedly handed over a letter, which was still stained with dried blood.

Seeing the bloodstains on it, Su Liuye suddenly had a bad premonition.

"Mrs. Chu is not good! Mr. Chu was injured outside, Lord Xiao asked me to take you over quickly! Xiao Wu's slightly trembling voice was sharp, and his eyes were full of anxiety, "Mr. Chu doesn't seem to be lightly injured, it was a barbarian who stabbed him, and the blade was smeared with poison!" The doctor in the barracks had helped Mr. Chu stop the bleeding for the first time, but he couldn't find the antidote, and now he ......" Speaking of this, she suddenly choked.

Seeing her reddened eyes, Su Liuye seemed to come back to her senses suddenly, and opened the letter with trembling hands, and there was only a few sentences on it, "Chu Yan is poisoned, come quickly!" ”

A few simple words made her eyes spin around, but fortunately, Xiao Wu held her up in time and said with concern, "Mrs. Chu, are you okay?" The carriage outside is ready, please come with me at once! ”

"I—I'll go over now!"

Su Liuye's whole heart ached, and when she came to her senses a little, the person was already in the carriage.

The horses were running so fast that the whole wagon was rocking. Su Liuye only felt that his eyes were sour, and he opened the envelope in his hand sluggishly, and carefully read the words on it several times, wanting to confirm whether it was his hallucination.

Didn't Chu Yan say that he would only go after those who escaped from the mine? Why was he suddenly stabbed by a barbarian? Could it be because the barbarians knew that Chu Yan was chasing the miners? Or is it because Chu Yan went to the border?

"Mrs. Chu, you drink saliva first."

Xiao Wu handed over the kettle, "After we get out of the city, we have to ride horses, the border is not on the edge of the Lingjiang River, and we can only find a land route all the way over." I have already told the maids in the county lord's mansion that when the county lord of Anyang comes back, they will help tell the county lord, Mrs. Chu, you don't have to worry. ”

"Good ......"

Su Liuye took a sip of water, and the warm water slid into her lips, bringing her back to her senses slightly.

After coming out of the city, they took the horses that had been prepared a long time ago, Xiao Wu followed her by her side, and there were several other guards, who were said to be sent by Xiao Yun's side, who would escort them all the way to Chu Yan.

Xiao Yun is a civil official, even if he has already learned the news of Chu Yan's injury, he will stay in the capital and deal with the affairs handed to him by the imperial court. Chu Yan's injury this time is a serious matter, and the worst case is that the two armies go to war, and the civil and military officials in the capital must always pay attention.

Chu Yan went to arrest people on behalf of the Great Xia Kingdom, and no matter how stupid the barbarians were, they should know this, but they still went to Chu Yan, which proved that they didn't care about the relationship with the Great Xia Kingdom at all.

Su Liuye traveled all the way, and after more than ten days of travel, he finally arrived at the nearest border town from the capital. There was a high wall, and although it was already spring, the town was still silent and dreary, and only a few old women occasionally poked their heads out of the house, and when they saw that there was nothing unusual outside, they were about to look for the ingredients for the day, with bamboo baskets.

These are distributed by the barracks, and although they are not much, they can make ends meet.

Outside the wall from the town is the grassland inhabited by the barbarians, and although it is now spring, the temperature is still cold, the grassland is barren, and the mountains in the distance are covered with snow. At this time, they should have been preparing to plant crops, but because of the barbarians outside, the residents of the town did not dare to do much.

Once the barbarians really went to war, they could only hide in the mountains with their families and wait for the soldiers to drive the barbarians away.

"Mrs. Chu, this way!"

Su Liuye followed Xiao Wu all the way on horseback, and when she came to the barracks, her legs were numb, and she was almost unstable when she landed, but fortunately, Xiao Wu helped her into the barracks in time.

The soldiers guarding outside wanted to stop them, but the guards behind them pulled out their tokens, and the soldiers immediately let them in.

Coming to a tent near the middle, Xiao Wu went over to say hello, and the soldiers guarding outside went in to pass the word, and soon came out and said, "Two of you, please go in, Mr. Chu is inside." ”

"Thank you!"

Su Liuye's heart tightened, and when she opened the curtain, she smelled a strong and bitter medicinal smell, like an invisible big hand choking her throat.

A simple screen was placed in front of him, and after crossing the screen, the shirtless man happened to get up from the ground. His strong chest was wrapped around a white cloth, on which black medicine oozed, and red blood stains could be faintly seen.

"Husband!"

After seeing the man's face, Su Liuye hurriedly greeted him, looking at the wound on his body with a sour nose, "How are you now?" Xiao Wu told me that you were injured, and there was poison on the wound! ”

"I'm fine."

No matter how long it took a few days, Chu Yan had lost a lot of weight, and his face was faintly dark. As he spoke, his parched lips opened slightly, and he spoke hoarsely, and the situation did not look promising.

He stroked Su Liuye lightly, and swept towards Xiao Wu with a cold eye, as if he was blaming her for being nosy.
