Chapter 35 Fetters(1/3)
"My little master, there is Baima Pass in front of you."
On the official road south of Gyeonggi.
A powerful black-robed cavalry was walking forward in an orderly manner. When a tall and majestic outline of the city gradually emerged at the end of his sight, a black-faced man with a tiger back and a bear waist suddenly shouted behind him.
"Shut up!"
Unexpectedly, an old man was scolded in the team.
"Old Guo calmed down, I was reckless..."
The black-faced man laughed and said embarrassedly as soon as he heard this.
"Old Guo, Uncle Hei definitely didn't mean it, so you can calm down."
The old man snorted coldly, and then a clear consolation sounded in his ears.
"My husband, the situation is now dangerous. We must not be careless before we arrive in the capital."
The old man followed the sound and looked at a handsome young knight beside him wearing a black robe, armor and a handsome face.
"Mr. Guo, I know all these."
The young knight looked at the vague outline of the city at Baima Pass in the distance with a slight look.
After passing Baima Pass, they were able to drive straight into the capital.
Calculate carefully.
This should be his return to this familiar and unfamiliar place after two years.
That's right.
The young knight was Chen Xu, who once intended to invite Xia Fan to come out to help the world.
The New Year has just passed.
He was confined to Yangchuan and went to the capital secretly at his father's order.
Although his father did not explicitly ask him to enter Beijing, he still realized the clues from the attitudes of Mr. Guo and Uncle Hei.
perhaps.
My father's situation in the capital seemed a bit bad, and he might encounter some dangers.
That's the case.
Why did my father even urgently recruit him to Beijing?
He can't figure it out.
Mr. Guo and Uncle Hei were so nervous that he was restless along the way.
In the evening.
They finally arrived at Baima Pass. Facing the inspection of the city gate guards, the black-faced man stepped forward and showed his waist sign and was able to let it go smoothly. Not long after, the team entered the station in Baima Pass.
"Old Guo, we are only hundreds of miles away from the capital. Are you still unwilling to tell me the truth?"
After dinner.
Chen Xu couldn't help but sigh to Mr. Guo who was serving him.
"My little master, don't make things difficult for me. When you arrive in the capital, you will naturally know what you should know."
Mr. Guo couldn't help but look helpless.
"Old Guo, actually I just want to know the situation of my father in the capital now. Do you not even want to tell me about this?"
Chen Xu said with a worried look on his face.
"Oh..." Mr. Guo sighed for a moment. "Mr. Master, I can only tell you that Mr. Master is indeed a bit subtle in his current situation."
"subtle?"
Chen Xu said in a daze.
"The matter here is too complicated and cannot be explained clearly in a few words. Even I have only a little understanding now. If the young master really wants to know, you can ask the old master for advice in person at that time."
Mr. Guo is hard to say.
"You don't know, Mr. Guo?"
Chen Xu was a little surprised.
"After all, I am no longer always with my husband, so it's normal not to know many things."
Mr. Guo said with a wry smile.
“…Is there any danger to my father?”
Chen Xu said with a heavy face.
"It depends on the change in the situation in the capital."
Mr. Guo seems to be right but not Tao.
"What happened in the capital now?"
Chen Xu hurriedly asked.
"...It is said that this seems to be related to the royal family, but I don't know the specific situation."
Mr. Guo said vaguely.
"I understand, thank Mr. Guo for his unswerving solution."
Chen Xu knew.
If you ask further, you won’t have any results, so you can simply end this topic.
"Mr. Please rest early tonight. I will go outside to patrol first."
Said.
Mr. Guo then left the room.
"Old Guo, is the young master pestering you to find your roots again?"
Outside the yard.
The black-faced man in charge of the alert immediately stepped forward and said hello when he saw the old man walking out.
"Are you gloating?"
Mr. Guo said with anger, "The black-faced man looked at him."
"Hehe, how dare you?"
The black-faced man immediately smiled silly.
"Have everyone arranged it?"
Mr. Guo's face suddenly turned right.
"Of course!" the black-faced man said seriously in an instant. "The open and secret whistles have been distributed in various key positions inside and outside the station. We can clearly see if anyone sneaks in."
"Don't forget what happened at Nanjun Inn!"
Mr. Guo reminded him with a slight hue.
"I know." The black-faced man said in a deep voice. "Mr. Guo, are you worried about the second young master?"
"You and I know that the second young master is suspected to have colluded with Yinsha Sect, and the Zhenwusi and his group died at the Nanjun Post Station."
Mr. Guo said with a serious expression.
"Since the second prince disappeared mysteriously, I have suspected that it was someone from Yinsha Sect who rescued the second prince. If the second prince intends to be unfavorable to the young master..."
"I can't understand why the second young master wanted to kill the young master..."
The black-faced man couldn't help but sigh.
"This is no longer a matter of concern."
Mr. Guo shook his head and said.
In fact, Mr. Guo was also confused. In his impression, the second young master has always been calm, has a moderate manner, and acts like a general.
Before this, he never expected that the second young master would do something to kill.
At first he thought the second young master was fighting for the position of Duke, but after calmly thinking, there were undoubtedly too many doubts here.
You should know that the state of Wei is in its prime, and its body is always free of illness and disasters. If there is no accident, it can at least live to be over 70 or 80 years old. Moreover, the Duke of Wei is in power and the second prince cannot pose any threat to his father at all. Even if he wants to take over the Duke of Wei, it will take at least several decades.
Therefore, even if he wants to compete for the position of Duke of the Kingdom of Wei, he must at least wait until Duke of Wei grows old or dies.
Furthermore.
Just a position of a king.
This is not the throne, is it worth the risk of being betrayed by the second son?
The most important thing is the attitude of the man.
To be continued...
