Splendid Pastoral

Chapter 63 Whereabouts exposed
At this moment, Gu Lingqing and Gu Po were on their way, and they didn't realize that their whereabouts had been exposed at all.

Of course, in order to prevent others from finding out, they would pretend to be stupid along the way, so the two walked very slowly.

On this hot summer day, the two of them had only walked for two hours since they set off in the morning, and they were already dripping with sweat.

From a distance, the two saw a tea shed temporarily built on the road in front of them, so they went up to ask for a pot of tea, and took a rest by the way.

"Boss, have a pot of tea."

"Okay, sir, please wait a moment."

The owner of the tea shed was very nimble, and quickly served them a pot of tea.

It's just that when the tea was being served, Po Gu saw a white note slightly protruding from the bottom of the teapot with sharp eyes.

Gu Po suppressed the surprise in her heart, raised her head and looked at the owner of the tea shed, only to see the tea shed owner nodded slightly towards Gu Po.

Gu Po understood and quickly lowered her head. The owner of the tea shed turned around and left. Except for Gu Lingqing who was opposite, no one who was drinking tea next to him noticed these small movements.

"It's really hot, my good grandson, hurry up and drink some tea to quench your thirst."

Gu Po quickly pulled out the white note from under the teapot with her left hand, and poured a cup of tea for Gu Lingqing.

Gu Lingqing smiled silly, picked up the teacup and drank it down: "It's delicious...it's delicious...I want more."

Gu Po poured him another cup, Gu Lingqing exchanged glances with her, and after drinking the tea, Gu Po threw down the money for the tea and continued on her way.

After walking for about half an hour, Gu Po and Gu Lingqing stopped, took out the note from her bosom, and handed it to Gu Lingqing.

"The letter has been delivered, the gangster is on the way, go home to see a doctor."

In just a few words, Gu Lingqing already understood the meaning.

It must be that Gu Qi didn't make the matter very clear in order to deceive others. He was afraid that something unexpected happened on the way and it fell into the hands of others and leaked the matter.

However, although these twelve short characters were written in a very cryptic manner, Gu Lingqing could already understand the meaning of them.

The letter from that year has been handed over to the emperor, and the people who came to arrest me and Po Gu are already on their way, and they want to send them back to the imperial city to see a doctor.

After Gu Lingqing read it, she handed the note to Po Gu. Apparently, Po Gu also understood the meaning, and her face was a little ugly: "Master, what should we do?"

"Continue on your way to Zhang County, don't let others notice the difference."

It turned out that when Gu Lingqing was poisoned by Gu Zixing, he pretended to be a fool. Although the emperor did not kill him with the full support of the courtiers headed by the general Zhen Guo, but The two were dispatched to this remote mountain village, and were ordered not to leave without permission.

After Gu Po learned that she was going to be dispatched to this small mountain village, before leaving, she wrote this letter by herself and handed it to Gu Qi for safekeeping.

It's because I'm afraid that one day in the future, I and Gu Lingqing will fall into the situation we are in today and need to escape from the small town.

If you are not caught up, then everything will be fine. If you are caught up, let Gu Qi present the letter in front of the emperor, so as not to put yourself and Gu Lingqing in a deadlock.

Right now, the letter from that year has been presented to the emperor, presumably the whereabouts of himself and Gu Lingqing have been discovered by the people there.

In order not to arouse the suspicion of the people sent by the court, the two had no choice but to maintain the original route and rush to Zhang County.

The two walked all the way, in order not to let people find their whereabouts, they took some mountain roads.

Now that they have been noticed by the people in the capital, the two of them no longer cover up and take some difficult and remote paths, but walk on the official road, but it is hard for Gu Lingqing, who has to pretend to be crazy every day Silly.

The two hurried and hurried, and finally arrived at the nearest town before dark.

The two of them randomly found an inn in the town and stayed there. After entering the room, Gu Lingqing made sure that there were no prying people around. The second time is that there is no escape."

Gu Po's expression was not very good either: "Master, no matter what, it's not the worst outcome now, it's just hard work, you have to continue to pretend to be stupid in front of those people."

As early as the moment Gu Lingqing received the note, she carefully calculated the situation she and Po Gu were facing in her heart.

It is about ten days' journey from the capital to here, but since it is the emperor's personal order, since the pace must be accelerated, it is estimated that in four or five days, people in the capital will feel this place.

No matter how fast I and Mrs. Gu traveled, I couldn't go any farther away from Zhang County. I'm afraid they would be stopped on the way to Zhang County.

What's more, Gu Qi has already presented the letter to the emperor, so he has already been involved in this incident of his own.

If she and Gu Po run away at this time, then Gu Qi will definitely be implicated. Even though he is the emperor's most beloved son, Gu Lingqing still doesn't want him to take this risk for herself.

Sure enough, everything was as Gu Lingqing expected. After walking for four days, the two were stopped by the people sent by the emperor when they were three days away from Zhang County.

At that time, Gu Po was walking slowly on the road with Gu Lingqing. The two knew that they could not escape, so they were not in a hurry.

Gu Lingqing seemed to be stupid, giggling, like a child, chasing butterflies in the sky for a while, and attracted by the small flowers on the ground for a while.

And Gu Po is like a grandmother who has broken her heart for her grandson: "Hey, slow down, don't run around, be careful."

The person sent by the capital only showed up after observing them secretly for a long time.

"Nurse Gu."

After hearing this sound, Gu Po turned her head and saw a dozen men in black quietly appearing behind her.

Gu Po looked at them and did not speak, but Gu Lingqing still pretended not to understand anything, squatting on the ground, observing the ants on the ground.

"Nurse Gu, the emperor has ordered me to take you and Young Master Gu back to the palace for treatment immediately."

The man held the imperial decree, but didn't read it out. He just issued a notice with an arrogant look on his face.

After seeing the imperial decree in his hand, Gu Po knelt down: "Thank you Lord Long En."

"Take it away!" The leader winked at the person following behind.

The people behind stepped forward and surrounded Gu Po and Gu Lingqing.

Gu Po slowly got up, walked to Gu Lingqing who was squatting aside and stretched out her hand: "Let's go."

Gu Lingqing looked ignorant, and handed his hand to Gu Po's, Gu Po pulled him up, and the two walked towards a carriage behind the man in black, and the man in black behind them walked slowly behind them. keep up.

After Po Gu and Gu Lingqing got into the carriage, Gu Lingqing lowered her head and played with the little flower she had just picked on the side of the road.

Gu Po raised the curtain next to the carriage and looked in the opposite direction, her eyes darkened, and she immediately closed the curtain.
