The remnant king and poisonous concubine: this palace has a system

Chapter 467 The Strange Old Man 1
Chu Huang hurried on, thinking that he would be able to catch up in at least two or three days, but he didn't realize that something was wrong until he reached the range of the northern border and found no sign of them.

He drove fast all the way, and it was impossible not to catch up with their carriage, but he didn't find any suspicious people along the way, and there was no other way to go except this road, so it was impossible for them not to come here.

Chu Huang got off his horse at the city gate of Jinmenguan. The gatekeeper was one of his generals. When he saw him dismount, he quickly got down from the tower. "General, you are back. Yesterday, the Northern Territory sent troops to attack again."

The general was very happy to see Chu Huang, took the reins of the horse from Chu Huang, and asked a guard to lead the horse to the manger to take care of it.

"Recently, some suspicious people have passed through the Jinmen Pass." To go to the Shenwu Empire, you must first pass through the Jinmen Pass. The domain is at war, and no one can leave the city. He has ordered the city gates to be sealed, and it is impossible for them to ignore his order and let people out.

"No, no one has entered Jinmen Pass." The general didn't understand what Chu Huang meant by asking, but he still answered seriously.

He was a little uncertain, because he didn't guard the city gate here every day, so he asked the guard who had been guarding the city, and the guard also denied that anyone had come in.

"No." That's strange, where will they go?Is there any other place to lead to the Shenwu Empire besides here?
Chu Huang looked at the way they came. If he hadn't missed the carriage they parked, or they had taken another road that no one knew about. If it was the latter, then they might have entered the territory of the Shenwu Empire. If so, it will be very troublesome to chase after.

Chu Huang had a sullen face. The Shenwu Empire has never interfered in the affairs of the outside world, nor accepted people from the outside world. Therefore, if there is no way, he cannot enter the Shenwu Empire at will, especially because he is still the royal family of Dongcheng. It even rejects the royal family of other countries.

"General, how long will the battle with the Northern Territory last?" The general is a man with a wife and children. He has been away from home for a long time and has been in the frontier. He has long wanted to go back, but the war has not ended for a long time, and he can't help it. When I went back, I heard that his wife had recently given birth to a fat boy. When he came, his wife was only three months pregnant, and now she has given birth to a boy, but his boy has not seen his father yet, even No name yet.

"This king knows that you have worked hard, but this war will probably continue for a while." Chu Huang tried his best to comfort him.

He strode towards the General's Mansion. There was no open shop on the streets of Jinmenguan. When the war broke out, many people did not dare to open their doors for business. Only some people who lived here for a long time would occasionally open their doors to do business.

In a restaurant, the waiter was pushing an old man outside, "You old man, you have been eating and drinking for nothing in our restaurant for so many days, and you still want to continue, do you want to die?"

The waiter was very angry. This old man entered Jinmen Pass three days ago. He heard that he was leaving the pass to go to other countries, but now he was fighting. The general ordered no one to leave the city, so the old man just wandered around inside the pass. , wanted to wait until the end of the war.

That night, the old man came to stay in their store, and he has been here since then. Except for the one or two pieces of silver he gave at the beginning, the stinky old man never gave any money, but he had to drink good Nurhong every day. Also eat the best dishes.

The shopkeeper couldn't help it so he asked Xiao Er to drive him out.

"Just let me stay for a few more days, and I will leave after a few more days." The old man was disobedient and wanted to rush inside.

The waiter pushed him to the ground, and the generals around Chu Huang rushed to resolve the dispute.

"what happened?"
