Married a proud husband after farming

Chapter 1490 Halfway Interception
"Prepare the carriage!"

Rong Jiu ordered in a deep voice, then turned around and entered the bedroom, changed his clothes, and called Chu Shiqi again.

Chu Shiqi was the Chu Wei who helped her cut the village chief's heart and took the knife that day in Panlong City. He had already done it once, and the cooperation would be more tacit.

Zhou Chengye was the second prince of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, so he couldn't make any mistakes.

It was already late at night, and Rong Jiu didn't disturb Li Shi, but she was afraid that she would be worried, so she told Manager Yan that she had something to go to the palace and stay for a few days.

A carriage is no better than riding a horse, but Rong Jiu is pregnant, so it is not suitable for riding a horse.

The carriage left the Princess Mansion and galloped all the way to Mulan Mountain. Lingyue was afraid that the carriage would be too bumpy, so she put on several layers of brocade quilts.

Zhou Chengye was shot by an arrow for no reason, something must be wrong, Ling Yue was worried that Prime Minister Xiao would be intercepted halfway, so he brought a dozen Chu Wei along with him.

Rong Jiu leaned against the brocade quilt, and asked in a deep voice: "What's going on, it's fine, why did Zhou Chengye get shot by the arrow?"

Chu Wei replied: "Last night, the Xiao family's secret guards sneaked into Mulan Mountain in an attempt to steal firearms. We caught two of them. His Royal Highness was worried that there would be another accident, so he ordered us to secretly protect the envoys of various countries. Wei came for Prince Dong Zhou Zhou, deliberately distracting us and shooting the second prince."

Rong Jiu's eyes moved slightly, and an extremely cold determination flashed across: "Are you here for Zhou Chengye?"

Chu Wei nodded: "Yes, all the hidden guards of the Xiao family have gone to assassinate the second prince."

Rong Jiu sneered, the coldness in his eyes was still there, and he narrowed his eyes slightly: "That old fox can pick people."

Ling Yue thought about it for a while: "Tuoba Lie is the prince of Beiyan, if the prince of Beiyan dies, wouldn't it be more difficult for us to explain?"

"Beiyan and us have always been married. We also helped Beiyan fight against Xiling. The death of Tuoba Lie will not intensify the conflict between the two countries. But if Zhou Chengye dies in Southern Chu, Eastern Zhou will definitely not give up. When the time comes Open your mouth, if we don't agree, we will send our troops south, and Xiling will intervene, and we will be attacked by the enemy. Prime Minister Xiao will take the opportunity to rebel. There are more people rebelling, this is a consistent trick of the Xiao family."

Stealing firearms kills two birds with one stone.

If it succeeds, with firearms, the Xiao family will look for a skilled craftsman to study it, and sooner or later they will be able to cast it, then the Xiao family will increase their chances of winning.

If the matter fails, the death of two hidden guards can paralyze the sight, making people mistakenly think that the Xiao family will not take any more actions, and when everyone relaxes, the Xiao family's dark guards will be able to strike again.

The Xiao family and Chu Xun fought for a long time, knowing that Chu Xun would send Chu Wei to secretly protect the envoys of various countries, so they came up with a trick to divert the tiger away from the mountain.

Ling Yue was secretly startled: "Princess, will Zhou Chengye die?"

Rong Jiu shook his head with a cold and deep expression between his brows.

Back then, the village head of Panlong Village had a knife in his heart, and he could save his life only if he was treated in time, but Zhou Chengye did not have such a situation. From Mulan Mountain to Chang'an, and then from Chang'an to Mulan Mountain, it took a day and a night to go back and forth. In this day and night, there are too many variables, even if there is life extension pill to continue life, Rong Jiu is not sure.

After a long time, Rong Jiu asked Chu Wei: "Did you hurt your heart?"

Chu Wei said: "The arrow missed a bit, but it didn't hurt the heart."

Lingyue saw that the tiredness between her eyebrows was slightly thick, and said: "I won't be able to reach Mulan Mountain before dawn, the princess might as well sleep for a while."

Rong Jiu let out a "huh", and Zhou Chengye will be operated on at that time. It will take several hours, and he really needs to recharge his batteries.

In the dark night, the carriage was speeding along the mountain road. At this moment, a murderous aura came overwhelmingly.
