I opened a treasure chest on the road to escape

Chapter 47

As the saying goes, one lie needs countless lies to cover it up.

Therefore, Chen Chuxue could only continue to cheat.

"Originally, I brought many guards, but when I encountered the machete gang and the victims, only a few of us escaped."

As for whether they believe it or not, that's their business. Anyway, she
  "Let's do this, you take us to Anping Town, wait until we wipe out the machete guild there, and then you leave..."

When Chen Chuxue and others heard this, their faces suddenly became very ugly. They had already walked for more than a day, and they wanted to go back?
  More importantly, who knows if they will really let them go.

Moreover, if the machetes from Anping Town ran away, would they blame them?
  However, there is nothing I can do if I don’t agree.

"Go to the back and free up a carriage for them!"

After the general finished speaking, he asked his men to take Chen Chuxue and the others down to rest.

"General, is her identity true?" the general's confidant frowned.

"Whether she is real or not, by taking them on the road, we can kill two birds with one stone."

The confidants immediately understood what he meant. If they are, then we are equivalent to gaining favor from Marquis Qingyun. If they are not, then it will be an advantage to the general.

"Although Qingyun Hou Mansion has declined, it is still a Hou Mansion after all, and the connections are still there. Those of us with no background want to climb up, and there is no one to support us, so it is possible to climb forward..."

"But general, aren't they going to Jiangnan? Then we..."

"Bring them back to the capital, so that Marquis Qingyun will know the good deeds we have done." The general curled his lips, "We just said that the south road has been occupied by the rebels and they can't go south, so we brought them back..."

After all, if Chen Chuxue is really Hou Qingyun's niece, then if they let her go to Jiangnan, if something happens on the way, they won't be blamed.

It is impossible for them to send someone to send them to Jiangnan, because he does not have that much power, and everyone must be transferred through the above.

Although he is said to be a general, he is actually a junior general. There are commanders and generals above him.

More importantly, he fell in love with Chen Chuxue.

Although Chen Chuxue put on weak makeup and wore coarse cloth, she still couldn't hide her appearance.

If Chen Chuxue was not Qing Yunhou's niece, then he would have taken her as his concubine. If so, then he could make her his wife.

When the time comes, with the help of Qing Yunhou's connections, he will be able to get promoted and make a fortune. Otherwise, after decades of service, he will still be a captain no matter how meritorious he is.

Chen Chuxue didn't know the general's plan, but she could sense that the people around her were staring at them.

Apparently to prevent them from escaping.

"How to do?"

Geng Xiaoyan looked very ugly and said, "Sister Chuxue, Dad, I feel that that person is not a good person..."

"Shh!"

Uncle Geng stretched out his hand and shushed, then opened the curtain and looked around, and then whispered.

"Xiao Yan is right. Although that person hides it very well, he is definitely not a good person."

Uncle Geng said with a gloomy face. Although the man concealed it very well, he still saw something wrong with the way the man looked at Xiaoxue.

Especially when hearing Xiaoxue's identity, that kind of yearning for power.

"The question is how to leave?" Aunt Geng frowned, "There are hundreds of soldiers around, we can't escape at all..."

"Yes." Geng Xiaoyan sighed, "It would be nice if the tricycle was here..."

"Even a tricycle may not be able to outrun a horse." Chen Chuxue shook her head. The tricycle is not fast and cannot outrun a horse on such a plain.

Everyone was silent, this was the truth, not to mention the tricycle was out of gas.

It really rained all night when the house was leaking. "More importantly, if we offend them, I'm afraid..."

Aunt Geng's words made everyone's hearts sink.

Yes, so what if he escapes, I'm afraid they will continue to pursue him.

Not only that, I'm afraid we should report it to the court, and even contact the Qingyun Marquis Mansion and the Nanfeng City County Magistrate to ask them to give an explanation.

The Qingyun Marquis and the Nanfengcheng County Magistrate don't know them at all now, and they may think that they are liars and deliberately use their photos to deceive them, and they may deal with them together with these people.

When the time comes, there will really be no place to hide.

However, if they want to leave, they must either force their way in, or find a way to convince the general to let them leave.

But the second option is unlikely.

Therefore, the only option is to forcefully break through.

If you do this, you will offend them.

"I'm going to ask for information, and then I'll think about other options."

After Uncle Geng finished speaking, he turned around and got out of the carriage to chat with other soldiers.

He had already been in the military, so he could easily get along with these soldiers.

"Brother Zhao, are you from Kongwu Town?"

Uncle Geng looked at the soldier next to him. This was one of his chosen targets. He had chatted with many people, but the one in front of him was the easiest to fool, and he was also a big mouth.

Therefore, we can get news from his mouth.

"That's right." The man known as Brother Zhao nodded, and then seemed to find someone to talk to. "Brother Geng doesn't know something. Kongwu Town has been occupied by victims of the uprising. We have just finished suppressing it..."

"Victims of the uprising?" Uncle Geng was shocked. "There are not thousands of people, but Brother Zhao is so powerful that he can survive the battle of thousands of people without any injuries..."

"Hahaha." Brother Zhao laughed loudly after hearing this, obviously very happy, "Of course, you don't know, I was at a disadvantage when fighting ten people by myself..."

Then, the man started bragging.

Only then did Uncle Geng learn that there were not thousands of victims of the Kongwu Town uprising, but only more than a hundred, or about two hundred, more than these people.

Therefore, they were easily suppressed by these soldiers.

That's right, it's suppression.

Not a single prisoner was taken.

After Uncle Geng heard this, he was immediately shocked. What made him even more shocked and angry was that the man in front of him not only had no sympathy, but was full of pride.

"Brother Geng, do you know? Those who attacked me thought they were so powerful, but in the end they were killed by us until they knelt down and begged for mercy..."

"I promised them on the surface, but I took advantage of them to be happy and chopped off their hands. You didn't see their shocked and angry expressions. It was so funny..."

"I just like to see them angry, but I can't do anything about my expression, and then I bleed them and let them watch themselves die..."

Uncle Geng already knew at this time that although this group of people were the imperial army, they were no different from those machetes.

It's nothing more than wearing the cloak of so-called justice.

He suppressed his anger and continued to praise the man, and then got a lot of useful information from him.

Especially about the identity of this general and the purpose of their trip.
