They originally wanted to let the tribes take the initiative to hand over the chapter and elect the second prince of Bai Xiao.

It's better now, since the Northern Barbarian Emperor took the initiative to ask, don't blame others for answering.

Thinking of coming to the Northern Barbarian Emperor, he was also anxious to understand the thoughts of the leaders of the tribes, and even more anxious to understand who the Iron Wolf Tribe was loyal to.

"The second prince is brave and resourceful, and has the capacity to accommodate people, and the Northern Barbarian Kingdom will definitely have another situation in the future.

The tribes no longer have to worry about it, they can live in peace and contentment, graze freely, and communicate with each other. ”

The leader of Bahu is past middle age, not to mention reading countless people, but also through personnel.

He looked at Chu Wenjin with some appreciation, he was young, he spoke naturally, and he had no stage fright. I couldn't help but look at him a few points.

This Yunxiao country is really full of talents, and all of them are eloquent.

Thinking like this, the leader of Bahu realized that he had actually classified the second prince as a person from the Yunxiao Kingdom.

In the war for many years, it was the strong men of various tribes who charged ahead, but it was the royal family that benefited the most.

If you can eat a full meal, who wants to live such a life.

The future described to him by the second prince and Chu Wenjin was too tempting.

No matter who they were, it was impossible for him, the leader of the tribe, to refuse.

"Back road, I have prepared for Chu Shangshu, and I can't send it tonight, so I will borrow this wine to thank Chu Shangshu for sending food, and also to see Chu Shangshu off."

"Thank you. The leader of Bahu will not forget this situation, and the two princes will not forget each other. ”

Chu Wenjin can be said to have hidden merit and fame, and he never leaves Bai Xiao, paving the way for him.

The two clinked glasses and drank each other, and the messenger listened, and some of them couldn't react.

What do you mean, Chu Wenjin doesn't plan to go to the capital with the royal guards, and plans to escape tonight?

Although the envoy had not worked with Chu Wenjin for a long time, he didn't know why, so he felt a sense of dependence on him.

I always feel that with Chu Wenjin here, it seems that anything can be done.

Suddenly asked him to deal with the next matter by himself, and in the face of the emperor's inquiry, the envoy had some fear in his heart.

"Chu Shangshu, if you want to leave, I don't know what arrangements you have for me? I took two assassins back to Beijing this time, in case things don't go well, my head is not enough for the emperor to cut off! ”

Chu Wenjin didn't know whether to appease or encourage, so he looked at the envoy with a serious expression and said:

"Has the messenger heard, put it to death and come back to life? If the envoy is still in front of your emperor, he is still like this, he is really not far from death.

The envoy can rest assured that the second prince is already in the capital, as long as you don't sway from side to side, you will be fine. ”

Hearing that the second prince to whom he was now loyal was in the capital, the envoy felt a little relieved. Answer firmly:

"Chu Shangshu rest assured, since I have decided to follow the second prince, I will not go back on my word and kill myself!"

He also knows the fate of stepping on two boats, and since he has chosen his master, he has to go all the way to the end in order to have a bright future.

Chu Wenjin nodded with satisfaction, and the three of them talked happily.

The royal guards waited until the evening, and finally saw Chu Wenjin come out, and smiled at them:

"It's cold in the morning and evening, everyone has worked hard."

Stretching out his hand not to hit the smiling man, the royal guards could only be respectful.

"This is our business, and we dare not say that it is hard."

Chu Wenjin said a polite word to them, and then turned his head sideways and ordered Qingfeng and Qingjuan.

"Go and buy some food for the road."

"Yes, sir."

Qingfeng and Qingjuan took the order, but the Beiban royal guards stepped forward and blocked their way, speaking politely but toughly.

"Chu Shangshu doesn't have to bother, we're all ready for you."

Chu Wenjin's face turned cold, and he said angrily:

"How do you know the official's preferences? Does your emperor want to invite this official to be a guest, or do you want to arrest this official and go to prison? The official is here, can the two of them run away on their own? ”

The royal guards didn't expect that Chu Wenjin, who had always been polite, would suddenly have a seizure.

In the end, Chu Wenjin is an official of the Yunxiao Kingdom, and he can't be rough until he has to do it.

"Chu Shangshu misunderstood, our emperor naturally invited Chu Shangshu to be a guest, and we also wanted the two of us to run less errands."

The royal guard said and moved out of the way.

Chu Wenjin is right, he is here, his two guards can't run away by themselves, they will always come back.

They just need to be optimistic about Chu Wenjin.

Chu Wenjin was still angry, and he didn't give the royal guards a good look, so he followed the descendants of the Bahu tribe to the house prepared for him by the Bahu chief.

The royal guards glanced at the subordinates behind them, and they dispersed and took care of the house where Chu Wenjin lived.

The Northern Barbarian envoy opened a window crack in his room, looking at Chu Wenjin's room opposite, surrounded by expert guards.

I don't know what the trick is in this house, can Chu Wenjin really get out safely?

The sky gradually darkened, and Chu Wenjin's two guards had not yet returned, and the Beiban guards were faintly uneasy.

After thinking about it again, he still knocked on Chu Wenjin's door.

"Chu Shangshu, can I send you some tea in?"

"No need, the official is tired, and I want to rest early. Wait for the two subordinates of the official to come back, so that they don't have to return to their lives. Rest well and hurry tomorrow. ”

"Then don't bother Chu Shangshu."

When the Northern Barbarian guards heard Chu Wenjin's voice, they relieved themselves and guarded the room with their eyes wide open.

Inside the house, Chu Wenjin turned off the lights, walked to the side of the bed by the moonlight, sighed slightly, and leaned directly to the ground, using his hands and feet to get under the bed.

When he saw a rope buckle on the edge of a stone slab, he knew that this was his way out.

Inevitably making a move, Chu Wenjin gathered his strength, held back his strength, pulled the stone slab hard, and slowly moved it aside.

Beneath the stone slabs is a black and simple tunnel.

Chu Wenjin went down to the tunnel and carefully covered the stone slab above the exit.

This time he put the buckle downwards and kept it out of the picture. He also put four locks from below in the dark, so that the stone slab could no longer be opened.

Only then did he take out the fire fold from his bosom and blow it up, and the tunnel in front of him appeared in front of him, narrow and short, which showed that the tunnel was dug in a hurry.

Chu Wenjin quickened his pace and hurriedly walked forward. A quarter of an hour later, he finally saw the exit.

Qingfeng and Qingjuan were already waiting for him at the exit.

"Be careful, sir."

Qingfeng stretched out his hand and pulled Chu Wenjin out.

Chu Wenjin looked back in the direction of the Bahu tribe, patted the dirt on his body a few times, and then turned over on the horse.

The good thing is that he is not an elegant literati like his second brother, and he doesn't have to maintain his image at all times.

In the dark night, there was only the dull sound of horses' hooves stomping on the ground, and the three horses galloped away. Soon it was gone.

Behind them, someone filled in the tunnel exit, covered it with turf, and restored it to its original state.

The Beiban royal guards only guarded Chu Wenjin's house, and they didn't notice that Qingfeng and Qingjuan had not returned, and no one remembered until the second half of the night.

"Chu Shangshu's two guards, did they not return overnight?"
