First Lady of the Crown Prince

Chapter 851 The truth of the year (first update)

 “What are you looking at?”

Tang Yueshan tugged on Gu Jiao's sleeve and signaled the gap in front of the horse, "It's time to move forward."

There was a large section in front of us, and the people queuing behind were impatient.

Even though entering the city was not what they wanted, they would not be able to earn more money if they went in later, so it was better to finish the work early and go home to rest.

Gu Jiao said: "It's nothing, just take a look."

 The Black Wind King took a few steps forward.

At this time, the carriage had successfully passed the checkpoint at the city gate.

The reason why it went smoothly was that Gu Jiao found that the guards guarding the city seemed to have known the owner of the carriage for a long time and let him in without checking at all.

 There is only one person in the world who looks so similar to my husband.

But wasn't he arranged by Shangguan Yan to take refuge in a safe Zhuangzi? In order to prevent him from slipping out, Shangguan Yan gave the death order to the guards.

—Of course, Gu Jiao felt that Shangguan Yan might not fully understand his son’s urinary properties.

Even Wang Xu can be fooled into doing that——

 The strange thing is why he is at the border now? Do you still look like you are doing well in Pucheng?

 “What’s going on?”

  She didn’t feel that she had made a mistake, but she also didn’t think that the guy had a reason to appear in the Jin army’s territory.

 Both situations are unreasonable.

"What are you mumbling about?" Tang Yueshan asked in a low voice, "You were mumbling so early in the morning. Did the princess come and remind you of your little husband?"

The princess is Xiao Heng's biological mother. She misses others when she sees them, so there is nothing wrong with her.

Gu Jiao turned to look at him: "By the way, how did you know that the princess is Xiao Heng's biological mother?"

Tang Yueshan didn't hide anything: "The Empress Dowager Zhuang and Lao Jijiu just talked about it, otherwise, who would dare to think about such a big secret? After all, Lao Xiao is really blessed. He rescued the female slave of the Yan Kingdom. I know it too."

Gu Jiao asked strangely: "Why do you know this?"

Tang Yueshan said smoothly: "I am at the scene."

 Gu Jiao: "Huh?"

Tang Yueshan’s expression changed.

 Oops, I spilled the beans.

 Sigh, forget it, the leaks are all gone, it doesn’t matter if there are more leaks.

Tang Yueshan sighed: "What happened back then is a bit complicated. Do you think that the princess was brought back by Lao Xiao from the military camp? Several military prostitutes came to the military camp, and one was beautiful and fragrant. The servants did not dare to Enjoy it privately, and be the first to think of dedicating it to your boss?”

 Don't tell me, Gu Jiao has really guessed this.

“Actually not.” Tang Yueshan waved his hand.

In fact, Xiao Ji did not bring people back from the military camp, but from the underground martial arts field. At that time, underground martial arts masters from the six countries gathered together. Xiao Ji was not the number one in the six countries. The number one in the six countries took a fancy to the slave girl and wanted to seize it. she.

 The female slave asked Xiao Ji for help.

The hero of Xiao Ji was so sad that he challenged the number one. As you can imagine, the number one was beaten badly.

At that time, Xiao Ji was not as powerful as he would later be, and the price paid for defeating the number one warrior in the Six Nations was huge.

He always thought that Xiao Ji sent him away after playing with him. After all, Xiao Ji had always been among thousands of flowers and never touched a leaf. Who would have expected that the two of them would have a child?

However, Xiao Ji probably didn't know that Shangguan Yan didn't just come to him for help when he was locked in a cage in the underground martial arts field. Shangguan Yan had knocked off Xiao Ji's mask as early as in the Dayan Kingdom.

Shangguan Yan saw Xiao Ji's face.

  He still remembers the little girl’s surprised expression: “My, my name is Ayan, who are you?”

Xiao Ji was seriously injured in the last duel. His five senses were damaged and he couldn't see or hear clearly.

He didn't say anything, he just picked up the mask on the ground and put it on expressionlessly, and left without looking back.

The girl Shangguan Yan stared blankly at Xiao Ji's back for a long time.

That look is just like the way I look at my sister-in-law... Tang Yueshan added in his mind.

After hearing what Tang Yueshan said, Gu Jiao was surprised: "It turns out that the number one in the underground martial arts field in the capital is Xuanping Hou."

 No wonder the dragon always sees the beginning but not the end. He is afraid that he has never been to that place since he suffered a back injury.

Thinking of something, Gu Jiao asked again: "Are you also in the underground martial arts field?"

Tang Yueshan straightened his back: "Ahem, that's about right."

 Gu Jiao: “Pay attention to your identity.”

Tang Yueshan had a dark face and stooped a little.

“Where did you rank back then?” Gu Jiao asked again.

Tang Yueshan chuckled: "I didn't participate in such a boring duel."

Gu Jiao glanced at him sideways: "It seems like your ranking is very low."

"Hey! Why do you look down on people so much! I told you that you are too lazy to duel!" If it weren't for the wrong occasion, Tang Yueshan would have screamed on the spot. He gestured, "Third!"

 In the underground martial arts field of Zhao State, only the top three are eligible to go to Yan State.

“Who is second?” Gu Jiao asked.

Tang Yueshan snorted: "Who else could it be?"

However, I know who they are, but they don’t know who I am. This is my ability, Tang Yueshan!

Gu Jiao: "So Gu Changqing only gained the qualification to go to the Yan Kingdom after defeating you."

Tang Yueshan: "That's what I asked him to do! I've already seen that he is Gu Changqing!"

Gu Jiao curled her lips and said: "It's an afterthought."

Tang Yueshan’s Vajra glared angrily, what I said is true!

In the end, Tang Yueshan didn’t have the chance to clear his name—because they were the ones in the queue.

"We came from Quyang City. My grandfather was a businessman from the Jin State. My whole family was imprisoned by them. I escaped with great difficulty. Please make it easier for you to allow me to take refuge in the city."

Gu Jiao only read her lines this time and did not show off her impressive acting skills, but the effect was unexpectedly good.

“My grandfather has been in Dayan for decades. I was born and raised in Quyang City and I don’t know how to speak Jin dialect.”

As Gu Jiao spoke, she took out a bag of silver and gave it to the guard guarding the city.

 The two of them entered the city smoothly.

It is not as strict as I thought. Is it because the Jin army has poor discipline and loose defense, or is it because the Jin army is too ambitious and not afraid of spies sneaking into the city to spy on the military situation?

Gu Jiao was thinking and looking at the scene in Pucheng.

Pucheng is a larger and more prosperous city than Quyang City. The population is twice that of Quyang City. The total annual tax paid to the court is three times that of Quyang City. But what Gu Jiao saw at this time was not what a big city should have at all. look.

The doors of the shops were closed, the streets were deserted, and the cloth signs fluttering in the wind were torn to pieces by the Jin army.

 …The city is bleeding.

"Let her go! You beasts! Let her go - let her go -"

From a shop not far away, a woman choked and cursed. She tightly hugged the thigh of a Jin soldier. The Jin soldier and his companions were dragging a beautiful and well-dressed little girl.

The little girl had been beaten half-conscious and had no strength to resist or cry out, so she had no choice but to let the two Jin soldiers drag her into the alley.

  Judging from the clothing and jewelry, this is the daughter of a wealthy family.

 In the past, there were stars and moons, but Pucheng has been reduced to the territory of the Jin army, and her identity and status are not worth mentioning.

 The country is destroyed and the family is destroyed. This has been the case since ancient times.

Jin Jun kicked the woman away and dragged the little girl deep into the alley while holding up her belt.

This kind of thing happened countless times in places where they didn't see it.

Gu Jiao tightened the reins.

 She was very angry.

These Jin troops really made her angry!

"That's what war is like." Tang Yueshan sighed secretly and raised his hand to block her eyes. "Okay, stop looking. I'll deal with it."

 After saying that, he got off his horse and entered the alley.

With his martial arts, it was easy to deal with two Jin soldiers, but in the blink of an eye, two Jin soldiers were killed by his hands. He found a place to dispose of the bodies.

　　The woman who had been kicked unconscious woke up, ran into the alley and took away her young lady. They were both so scared that they even forgot to say thank you.

By the time they reacted and were about to kowtow to their benefactor, Tang Yueshan had already returned to his horse and left with Gu Jiao.

Gu Jiao rode the Black Wind Cavalry on the deserted streets and said, "The situation in Pucheng is worse than imagined."

When the Nangong family occupied Quyang City, they used the banner of defeating the tyrant, rectifying the world, and rejuvenating the country. Therefore, they were kind to the people in the city, and the Jin army had no fear.

They are here to invade. The people of Dayan are not human beings, they are resources that they can plunder at will.

 “The war must be ended as soon as possible.”

 She said seriously.

 “Someone is coming!” Tang Yueshan said.

 The two of them got off their horses.

 A group of Jin troops came towards them, about a hundred people, led by a corps commander.

When he passed by the two of them, the captain just glanced casually. He saw a down-and-out young man and a servant. There was nothing to care about. The captain left with his men.

After making sure that the person was gone, Tang Yueshan said, "I've been here for so long and I still don't know where Lao Gu has gone. If I had known I would come, I would have asked him to leave a code in advance."

Gu Jiao said calmly: "Let's check ours."

The second thing to check or not to check is, the main thing is that I want to see you two lose each other's horses.

The strong desire to survive made Tang Yueshan suppress the words of seeking death.

 “Where are you going to check?” he asked.

 “City Lord’s Mansion.” Gu Jiao said.

Tang Yueshan almost choked. He said to himself that Gongsun Yu was living in the city lord's mansion. There were so many experts there that even I didn't dare to be so arrogant. You are very brave!

You can't catch tiger cubs if you don't enter the tiger's den. All the valuable information of the Jin army is in the city lord's mansion. Therefore, even if the city lord's mansion is the dragon's den and the tiger's den, you must break into it today.

"You don't have to go." Gu Jiao said, "This battle has nothing to do with the Tang family."

  Xiao Heng is the son of Marquis Xuanping. It makes sense for him to help his son pacify Dayan. Tang Yueshan does not need to work so hard.

Tang Yueshan snorted coldly: "Who are you looking down on?"

A girl dares to intrude, but the marshal of all the soldiers and horses in the world dares not to intrude?

Seeing this, Gu Jiao said nothing more.

 The two of them came to the vicinity of the City Lord's Mansion and found an unoccupied courtyard to place the Black Wind King and Black Wind Cavalry.

“Why do I think you are so familiar with the border? Have you been here?”

  “So be it.”

She was killed in Pucheng in that melee.

 She died under a sword with a peacock feather's cold light, and was stabbed through the heart from behind.

The owner of the sword is a very powerful swordsman, dressed in black and wearing a bronze fang mask.
