Chapter 141: The Battle of the Peak!
Coming out of the Golden Jade Hall, it was already night, and Chu Mo had finished arranging the deployment, so he breathed a sigh of relief, everything was ready!
However, in the past two days, the undercurrent in Kyoto has surged, so Li Jin has to remind Chu Mo to be extremely careful, of course, he understands how the fourth prince, Chu Yu, would miss such a good opportunity to assassinate him.
Back in the East Palace, the little dragonfly actually took the initiative to propose to Chu Mo that she would also follow her to Youzhou, which made Chu Mo a little embarrassed, after all, this trip was dangerous.
But the little dragonfly insisted again and again, listing her roles one by one, and Chu Mo smiled bitterly when she listened, and finally nodded in agreement, but everything had to be arranged by Chu Mo.
The little dragonfly hurriedly agreed, what she thought in her heart at this moment was that as long as she was by Chu Mo's side, the prince would lead the military seal to the right, and sooner or later she would have a way to get it!
Two days later, Kyoto North Gate!
On this day, the weather was gloomy, the wind was blowing, and the whole of Kyoto was enveloped in an inexplicable atmosphere.
Under the north gate of the city, the ministers, civil and military officials are standing on both sides of the street, neatly aligned, at the end, I saw the Chu Emperor patting Chu Mo's shoulder, and said earnestly: "This is going to Youzhou, it is difficult and dangerous, Mo'er, if you encounter something that cannot be solved, you must rush eight hundred miles and sue your father." ”
Chu Mo nodded and said, "Father and Emperor can ensure their health, and in addition, on the Queen Mother's side, I hope that Father can persuade me more." Since the queen heard that Chu Mo was going to Youzhou, she disagreed, and pestered Emperor Chu to withdraw this order.
Chu Yunxiu sighed, he naturally knew that the queen was distressed about Chu Mo, but these were all things he would have to face sooner or later.
"Don't worry, the queen, I'm going to pacify!"
At this moment, Chu Yu took a step forward and said with a sneer: "Brother Huang is going to Youzhou, you must be careful, a few days ago, the news of Brother Huang's trip to Youzhou spread all over Kyoto, I'm afraid, this way, Brother Huang has a restless journey." ”
When Chu Mo heard this, his eyes suddenly became sharp, and he sneered: "If the fourth brother is worried, at the feet of the Son of Heaven, that assassin still dares to blatantly assassinate?
Chu Yu's face changed, and then he sneered: "Youzhou rice is coarse and astringent, and the imperial brother has urinated on fine clothes and jade food since he was a child, when the time comes, don't bear it and come back early." ”
"The fourth brother has filtered! This prince has observed the people's feelings, but conforms to the principles of heaven, why is it uncomfortable? But the fourth brother, one person stays in Beijing, but don't cause trouble and displease your father!"
How Chu Mo didn't know that Chu Yu was disgusting himself, but even so, Chu Mo still didn't change his face, calm and calm, this kind of trick was useless to him, Chu Mo even warned in code, so that Chu Yu didn't dare to act rashly, and didn't dare to let him attack Chu Mo in Kyoto at will.
Everyone sent each other, and the people of Chu sang and blessed!
Under the watchful eye of everyone, Chu Mo and the others finally went out of the city, in addition to Chu Mo, snowfall, and small dragonflies, there was also Li Jin protecting in secret, and there was also a team of people sent by the Chu Emperor to follow them and escort Chu Mo!
However, halfway through, the sky was getting dark, and it started to rain lightly, so Chu Mo ordered the group to stop, camp in place, and rest for the night.
But when the guards had just set up camp, suddenly, snow fell in front of Chu Mo.
"His Royal Highness the Prince, someone is here!"
After that, I saw more than a dozen black-clothed masked people appear out of thin air, holding round knives, surrounding Chu Mo and forming an encirclement.
"The sky is not suitable, there is this as the road, fate is born from each other, but Huangquan, if you break into my realm today, then you will pay for your life!" The man in black at the head had cold eyes, with endless killing intent, and the round knife in his hand was buzzing.
After finishing speaking, the round knives in the hands of the black-clothed people around them all buzzed, splashing layers of rain.
"Bandits?"
Chu Mo was slightly stunned, just after leaving Kyoto, he met a killer, this Chu Yu is really worried about himself. But these killers, the realm is not very high!
"How are the bandits, how are the killers, today, you will die!"
After that, the man in black at the head was holding a round knife, and he jumped down in the air and slashed at Chu Mo's eyebrows, and the remaining dozen or so people in black were all like this, making a ruthless move, and the goal was naturally to kill Chu Mo.
Li Jin's face changed, and he was about to make a move for a while, but around, before Li Jin could make a move, the people of Jin Yutang took the preemptive action, and dozens of Jin Yutang masters, each showing their magical powers, directly pounced on the group of black-clothed people!
Bang!
Magnetic!
The sparks splashed by the collision sound were particularly dazzling on this rainy night, and the rain flashed, and the attacks of the men in black were blocked!
"Yo, I didn't expect that there are still masters? But even so, it's still ...... Die!"
The black-clothed man at the head spoke in a sarcastic tone, his face was indifferent, the round knife in his hand was buzzing, and at the same time as he finished speaking, the figure in black disappeared into this black curtain, and in the blink of an eye, he appeared in front of the master of Jinyutang.
"Jumping clown!"
The master of Jin Yutang smiled coldly, and the long sword in his hand slashed in the air, and he didn't even have time to scream, only to see the body of the man in black fall with a bang and fall to the ground fiercely.
At the same time as this Golden Jade Hall master made a move, other Golden Jade Hall masters did it one after another, and under one move, no one survived!
"Hall Master, let's solve such a trivial matter!"
On the way, they knew the true identity of this so-called hall master, and they were surprised by this, but they didn't expect that this hall master turned out to be the prince of Chu State, and they were amazed by it for a while.
Chu Mo stopped, he still recognized the strength of Jin Yutang, nodded with satisfaction, and then ordered the guards to dispose of the corpse, set up camp in place, and rest here tonight.
Today's events must have been done by Chu Yu, and if you go to Youzhou, it will definitely not be peaceful.
It was pouring rain, sleepless all night, and Chu Mo didn't set off until the morning, and it wasn't until the afternoon of the second day that he arrived at the boundary of Youzhou!
Youzhou, the border of Chu State, has been a place of trade between several countries since ancient times.
What's more, Youzhou is a gathering place for dignitaries and nobles, here, the control is not strict, and those who have a heart will settle here.
Before entering Youzhou, Chu Mo only brought snowfall, a little dragonfly, and Li Jin, and the three of them, Weifu paid a private visit, and the rest of the people were hidden here, waiting for orders.
"I heard that the scenery of Youzhou is pleasant, and the folk customs and terroir are even more unforgettable, but this ......" The little dragonfly frowned, on the rivers and lakes, she had also heard about Youzhou, but the Youzhou in front of her seemed to be different from the description.
On both sides of the city, I saw many men in shredded clothes falling to the ground with hunger, and even some women who were disheveled, standing on the side, all hanging in one breath.
And the surrounding houses are all wide open, and inside, empty. It looks like it was looted not long ago.
When they saw Chu Mo and his party, the eyes of these people became shrewd, and some even showed hostility!
"It seems that this Youzhou is far more serious than what is described in the document!"
Chu Mo frowned, his tone was cold, all this is seeing is believing!
