Chapter 197: The Mystery of Origin

Dugu Yan had already known about these tragic events in the rivers and lakes, but he should have been happy about it, but the letter made him unhappy.

Everyone had dry food, and Dugu Yan also wanted to use this as a refuge to house Hongyu, Bailing and others, so he had already stored enough food for this group to eat for a year and a half.

Dugu Yan rested here for a few days, and when he saw that Bailing's injury had improved, he wanted to get up and go north alone, as for why he wanted to go north, he didn't say it to anyone, let alone that there was no need.

On a fierce horse, in an impatient manner, sat a young woman, dressed in red, with a red gauze hat on her head, covering her cheeks, and gently swaying with the breeze.

She came along......

Dugu Yan strangled the white dragon horse under his crotch and looked back at Hongyu, his face full of bitterness. I don't know when, the smile on his face that he always lived in, moved away, and the new household was bitter and often flooded out.

"Didn't I tell you not to come along?"

Dugu Yan's "regular" now appeared on Hongyu's face, "I said that I would always follow you." ”

"The gentleman has two lines of tears, and it is difficult to tell what is in his heart...... Ruby, I have my secrets that I can't tell you. ”

"It's okay, I'll wait for you, and I'll wait for the day when the secret comes out. ”

"Okay!" Dugu Yan patted the horse to lead the way in front, "I actually have something to discuss with you." ”

"No way!"

"Why?" she replied decisively, overwhelmed him.

"Because I promised everything, except for not letting me follow you, I didn't have to discuss. ”

Dugu Yan thought hard and said, "Do you remember the treasure map in my sword?"

Hongyu nodded, "Yes." ”

Dugu Yan said: "I want to use that batch of treasures, is it okay?"

Hongyu smiled, "That's the treasure in your sword, and I'm not greedy for money, what's not to do?"

Dugu Yan said: "What if it's for the golden people in the north, and you don't hate me?"

Ruby smiled, "Why do I hate you? Whoever the treasure is given to, isn't it all the same? It's better than the one they bury in the ground." ”

Dugu Yan smiled bitterly, and had to tell everything in the letter.

"You know, since my father's death, my mother has been living alone on the lonely snow peak. Three years ago, she gave me a break from the goose, saying that she had remarried. I believed it and was furious, but I did not dare to reproach my mother.

A few days ago, she wrote again. Although the letter was written by her, it was stamped with the emperor's seal. Do you know why?"

Hongyu was puzzled and asked, "Covered with the emperor's seal, isn't that a holy decree?"

Dugu Yan shook his head and said, "I didn't know, I didn't expect that I was related to the current royal family.

"I can't imagine that the former Dugu Emperor really pleaded with the emperor. ”

"Oh!" Ruby thought it was a little amused. Thinking that Dugu Qiu Huang is Dugu Yan's father, known as the invincible opponent in the world, I didn't expect such a prodigal son to grovel to the court, "Could it be that your father was caught by the emperor's men back then?"

Dugu Yan shook his head lightly and said, "No, he went to ask the emperor for someone, someone he loved, and he didn't love him......"

"What?" Ruby was only more curious.

Dugu Yan continued: "My mother is the seventh imperial sister of the current emperor, named Princess Wenjing. Even if it was my mother's letter, I couldn't believe it, so I had to go to the palace to make sure it was written, or I wouldn't help me with what it was entrusted. ”

Hongyu said: "I heard that Princess Wenjing was plundered by a demon and then committed suicide, and the demon was strangled by the iron horse led by the emperor himself, I don't know ......" She really couldn't believe what Dugu Yan said.

Dugu Yan said: "The letter said that my mother didn't take a fancy to my father back then, but in fact, the first emperor was unwilling to be mediocre in order to stabilize the country and use my father's hand to slaughter martial arts, so I agreed to my father's request and promised my mother to my father." ”

"Oh!" Hongyu laughed, "I didn't expect your family to be a political marriage!"

Dugu Yan was full of sorrow, and said: "I don't know whether this matter is true or not, and I will ask again after I break into the palace." If what the letter said is true, then the inheritance of the Gao family of Northern Qi has already fallen into the hands of the Song lord. Wouldn't it be funny if that were the case?"

Hongyu smiled, but was about to ask, "What's so funny?"

Dugu Yan said: "Cast a sword and hide treasures, in order to make a comeback and take revenge." Unexpectedly, all the treasures hidden fell into the hands of the enemy. Song is from the Later Zhou, Zhou destroyed the Northern Qi and regarded it as a mortal enemy, and Song came out of the Zhou and got all the treasures of the Northern Qi, isn't it funny?"

Ruby nodded and smiled......

A few days later, the two came to Kaifeng. In the middle of the night, Dugu Yan came to the main gate of the palace with an extremely ordinary sword.

Although the palace was heavily guarded, it was easy for ordinary soldiers to evade.

Beyond the high palace wall, inside is a green brick paved floor, smooth and neat. The tall and splendid houses, one by one, are guarded by a master of the Ouchi every fifty paces, commonly known as the Praetorian Guard. This was later called the Imperial Forest Army, which was directly dispatched by the emperor.

At night, no amount of torches can illuminate the place.

Dugu Yan hid under a stone pillar, his dark blue night clothes completely blending with the shadows. There he waited quietly for the opportunity, the palace was his first time, so it was very strange.

It is more difficult to find someone in the huge palace than to ascend to the sky. But now he had to make sure.

Although, if all this was a calculated conspiracy, it would make Dugu Yan fall into a very passive situation, but he preferred that it was a conspiracy, because in that way, he could save a lot of trouble.

Beyond the front hall is a narrow alley with more than two dozen samurai in iron armor. These people, apparently, are not ordinary people, and their eyes are bright, like lamps, and although in the dark night, if there are mosquitoes flying in front of them, they will all see it lightly.

Dugu Yan only needs the slightest movement to be known by these people. But he walked slowly along the wall, and then suddenly accelerated, like an arrow shot out, and swished over the narrow path.

By the time the samurai noticed, he was gone.

After entering the harem, most of the guards were eunuchs, and in some places they were guarded by palace maids. Dugu Yan's heart was much calmer, and he said secretly: "These palace maids and eunuchs can't be compared with those shrewd warriors, most of them don't have any martial arts, and even if they do, they don't have to be afraid." ”

At this moment, I suddenly heard a person on the roof behind him laugh and said: "Hehe, who should I be sneaky, it turns out to be the famous Dugu Yan! What are you doing in the palace?"

Dugu Yan heard that voice was sharp, like a eunuch, but the eunuch did not leave the palace, he did not enter the palace, how could the eunuch know that his name was Dugu Yan?

Dugu Yan shook his face over, but bumped into an "old acquaintance". Take a hundred plating to read the latest chapter of "Cold Jianghu Claw Book House" for free for the first time.
