The road of the farmer's fortune and the imperial examination

Chapter 1205
"But the master urgently called us back and hid here all day, how are we going to leave?" The cloaked man felt that he had never been so embarrassed before, and his heart was very angry.

"Don't panic, is this capital still under martial law? Wait a while, let's find another chance!"

"It will be a while? Sooner or later, we will search here. Let's hide and avoid, and they will always find out."

They were talking, but they heard the sound of chains rattling outside the door.

"What's going on? Has someone searched here?" The cloaked man immediately grabbed the sword in his hand and asked nervously.

"I don't know! The young master probably won't come at this moment, let's find a hidden place to hide first."

The artist took a look inside the house, there were only two rooms in this dilapidated courtyard, and there was only one kang in this room, and he couldn't find a place to hide even if he wanted to hide.

He raised his eyes and glanced at the beam above, and jumped up first, and the cloaked man also flew onto the beam after seeing this.The two held their breath, staring at the movement below.

The sound of footsteps was getting closer and closer, but there was only one sound, and Tu Shi felt relieved.The one who came alone and knew this place should be the young master.

But then his face darkened again, the young master appeared here at this time, could it be that the situation has changed?
Gu Wanqian pushed the door, but seeing that it couldn't be opened, he said softly, "It's me, open the door!"

The man in the cloak recognized Gu Wanqian's voice, so he wanted to go down and open the door, but he was held down by Tu Shi.Although he had some doubts in his heart, he didn't act rashly.

Now that there is a lot of noise in the capital, the young master is not a martial arts practitioner, so he can't detect if he is being followed.If someone followed the young master secretly, or if the young master turned against Gu Chengyu, then they would be falling into a trap if they went to open the door at this moment.

"What's the matter?" Tushi asked softly, clenched the sword in his hand.

"You open the door first, we have to discuss countermeasures, someone is searching around with your portrait." Gu Wanqian was a little anxious, and looked around for fear of being discovered.

Although the place is very hidden and has already been bought by him, he still took a big risk in coming to tip off the news.

Coupled with the feeling of guilt towards Gu Chengyu, he was really uneasy.

Hearing this, Tu Shi didn't care about his previous speculation. He flew down and opened the door.

Another day was approaching dusk, Gu Chengyu looked at Ming Mo standing in front of him, and remained silent for a while.

"My lord, this villain is the Confucian mansion who followed Mr. Zhu and the others all the way. After Mr. Zhu sent his wife to the Confucian mansion, he stayed there and never came out again."

Gu Chengyu nodded, "The old man who sells candied haws, have you checked?"

"I have already sent people to investigate, but there is no news yet." Ming Mo did not dare to raise his eyes to look at Gu Chengyu, and secretly scolded Ding Wu in his heart that he was not doing well.

Gu Chengyu walked to the window, looked at the market where the crowds were gradually thinning out, and couldn't help thinking.Zhu Pang bought a lot of candied haws, and then the old man left.

Just pregnant, do I need to buy so many candied haws?Kong Shuhuan is a lady of every family, so it is impossible to eat so much take-out food.

"Then wait! Is there any change in Jiang Shaohua's place?"

"Ming Yan is monitoring, and there is no news yet!" Ming Mo took a deep breath, it has been a day, and at this time in the past, Ming Yan should send someone to reply.

"My lord! It's not good, there is a fight at the gate of the west city." A soldier hurried over to report.

"But the assassin was caught?" Gu Chengyu picked up the sword on the table, turned around quickly and rushed to the west gate.

Seeing Gu Chengyu leaving, the soldier had no choice but to run behind and explain.

"He said he saw a man in a cloak and asked him to take off his cloak. He refused, and a fight broke out."

Caped man?Gu Chengyu immediately flew onto the roof and used lightness kung fu to plunder towards the south gate.

Before they reached the gate of Nancheng, they heard the sound of swords clashing.

Ming Yan picked up the cloaked man's slanting stab with a sword, and when he saw Gu Chengyu and Ming Mo descending from the sky, he immediately felt relieved.

This person has high martial arts skills, but he is slightly inferior.If they let people go, all their hard work in the past few days will be in vain.

With Gu Chengyu and Ming Mo joining in, Ming Yan's disadvantage was finally reversed.

"Hurry up! Hurry up!" Gu Wanqian drove the carriage to the outside of the city gate, speeding all the way, but the people in the carriage behind him kept urging.

Gu Wanqian had no time to care about it at the moment, he kept driving the carriage, and after he was ten miles away from the city gate, he took a look at the fact that there were no pursuers behind him, and then he was relieved.

"Master Tushi, I wonder if Master Bu Ke can escape in time." Gu Wanqian thought of Bu Ke, and felt a little anxious.

"Don't worry! As long as he doesn't meet Mr. Gu, he will definitely be able to escape unscathed. You said earlier that Mr. Gu is in the south city, but we left at the gate of the west city. Even if he receives the news and rushes over, he won't be able to make it in time."

The officers and soldiers had portraits of Tu Shi in their hands, but not Bu Ke's.So they could only try to get Bu Ke to hold those people back, while Gu Wanqian led the painter out of the city gate in the chaos.

The carriages had been prepared outside the city gate long ago, and many people ran out of the city gate in the chaos, and the soldiers guarding the city had no time to pay attention.

Gu Wanqian replied after a while: "Oh! Then let's go to Shilipo earlier and wait for him!"

It's just that he was still a little uneasy, and then said: "But if my uncle rushes over, Master Bu Ke can't hurt my uncle, this is what you promised."

Gu Wanqian knows that Bu Ke's martial arts are very strong, if Gu Chengyu really arrives, what should Bu Ke do if he hurts Gu Chengyu?
The artist immediately replied decisively: "Don't worry, young master! Mr. Gu is your uncle, and he has taken care of you a lot these years. We are not the kind of ungrateful people. It's just that after we go back this time, it won't be long. , the master will send someone to pick you up. You have to test Mr. Gu a lot, and it's best to take him to Daxing together."

Tu Shi narrowed his eyes slightly, Gu Chengyu's martial arts are so profound, how could they hurt him?That is to say, the young master still doesn't know the details of Mr. Gu!But he had no intention of explaining.

"How could my uncle go back to Daxing with me? After you go back, don't come to me. I'm doing well now, and I don't want to leave."

At this moment, Gu Wanqian only felt guilty towards Gu Chengyu. He knew that Gu Chengyu's mission was to search for the assassin.But now he let the assassin go, this is not betrayal, what is it?
But let him just watch Tu Shi and the others fall into the hands of his uncle, he couldn't bear it.

After he planned to send the two of them away, he would no longer have anything to do with Daxing.

"Why is the young master so stubborn? Back then, the imperial doctor said that the empress was weak and could not give birth, and asked her to give up the child in her womb. But the empress insisted on giving birth to you, and she paid the price with her life for this. The young master said so, could it be Aren't you afraid that the Empress Empress will be under the Nine Springs, and it will be difficult for you to feel at ease?"

Tu Shi was filled with righteous indignation and had a headache, which made Gu Wanqian's heart heavy.
