Chapter 188 Secret Order (Second Update)
"Don't be anxious! If the official order can arrive before dark, you and I will go together." Yu Shi'an said with a solemn face.
"You can't leave. There are soldiers everywhere outside the city of Yang'an County. Who cares if you leave?"
"As long as the will can be achieved, I will have a way. This trivial matter is still useful. I'll be in charge personally? But think about it, I've been driving all the way from Kyoto... there's no way I can get there today. If we can't get there today, what's the point of catching up?"
The two of them turned around worriedly. Mount your horse.
What they didn't expect was that as soon as they got off their horses at the door of the house, a soldier came forward to whisper to Yu Shi'an. Yu Shi'an looked shocked. He turned to look at Song Gu and said, "The official secret order has arrived!"
"So fast?!"
"God help Wu Chen!"
The two people quickly stepped inside.
The secret edict was not brought by humans, nor by carrier pigeons. Song Gu never thought of this, but Yu Shian did. When he was on the battlefield, emergency military information would be transmitted by Haidong Qing. But he didn't expect that there were two copies of the secret decree.
A secret edict was given to the two of them. It contained not much content, but it was concise and to the point: Bring Prince Cheng to exchange secret letters with Su Chang and secretly enter the capital. Immediately burn the books, seal Laojie Mountain, remove all monsters, and send Su Chang to the capital. Secretly escorted to Beijing, Wu Chen immediately rushed to Longgu Mountain, Yang'an County Yamen and Laojie Mountain, leaving no one behind! Lin Cheng, the prefect of Luocheng, will take office soon...
Another secret edict is for Wu Chen.
This gave the two people an excuse to leave Yang'an County.
Yu Shi'an said to Song Gu:
"With the secret order for Wu Chen, you immediately set off to chase Wu Chen. Wait for me after you catch up. I will make arrangements here. It was not enough for Su Chang to escort him to Kyoto. He also had to take Yu Hong with him and add a secret letter. ...Don't make any mistakes on the way! I think the purpose of the secret decree is that the officials want Wu Chen to go to Longgu Mountain first and wait for the rabbit. This is a good way. There will be someone else besides you and me, which saves the two of us. Wu Chen spoke.”
Song Gumi put the decree into his arms and said to Yu Shi'an: "We must burn those books first before I can leave."
Yu Shi'an sighed, it is not appropriate for anyone to know about this. What will happen to the two of them in the future can only be left to fate.
......
Song Gu and Yu Shian burned the books they brought back, and Song Gu left the city with his personal entourage.
In addition to arranging the escorting of Su Chang, Yu Hong and the letter, Yu Shian also wanted to go on a killing spree!
...
Song Gu and his party quickly caught up with Datou's carriage, but it was not so easy to catch up with Wu Chen. They did not dismount all night, and it was not until dawn that Song Gu saw him leaning on the roadside. Wu Chen and his sophomore class were resting under the tree.
Wu Chen heard the sound of horse hoofs long ago and thought it was a pedestrian passing by. Unexpectedly, it was Song Gu. His first reaction was that something big had happened in Yang'an County. He stood up and looked again. Song Gu's expression made him feel relieved.
Song Gu dismounted and complained: "You are riding so fast! If you don't stop to rest, I'm afraid I will chase you directly to Longgu Mountain."
Song Gu said He took out the secret decree from his arms, put his hands into Wu Chen's hands and said, "This is the secret decree given to you by the officials."
Wu Chen immediately became serious. This was his first contact with a big leader. Whether he could go smoothly during his business trip in this life depended on this big leader. Wu Chen was naturally serious.
The sophomore in high school asked: "Can you understand?"
Wu Chen ignored the sophomore in high school. He had already read it. There were only two sentences on it: Do everything possible to eradicate the root! If you need anything, please tell me directly.
Wu Chen broke out in a cold sweat. What does this mean? Skip Chen Zhong and directly contact the officials? Chen Zhong fell out of favor?
The most annoying thing about Wu Chen in the previous life was trying to figure out what the leader said. It sounded like a compliment and asked you to make a choice. In fact, it was to comprehensively examine your state of mind through your answers. Here Is the same true for leadership?
Wu Chen handed the secret decree to Song Gu and asked: "Please help me see, what does a lawsuit mean?"
After reading it, Song Gu handed the secret decree to the second grade of high school and said, "The official wants you to let it go." We must get rid of those monsters and evil spirits."
"Why did you just tell them secretly?" Wu Chen asked.
"The officials must think that the things you need to conquer demons must be rare, so you can tell them directly. Other matters must be reported as usual." After reading the secret edict, the second year high school student directly put the secret edict into his heart. In his arms, he knew that Wu Chen could not put anything else in his arms.
Wu Chen scratched his forehead and said, "I was shocked! I thought Sir Zun had fallen out of favor. No matter what, let's go on our way first. Song Tixing, are you going back or coming with us?"
"Don't rush yet, wait for Deputy Yu."
"Huh?"
"What Deputy Yu and I mean is that it would be inappropriate for only you and the sophomore to do this kind of thing. , just like when I went up the mountain, I called Deputy Ambassador Yu without consulting you, just to have more eyes and one more person who can speak for you. You know that these things are unbelievable. It’s not enough if there are too many people, but it’s not enough if there are not enough people!”
Wu Chen didn’t say anything. He had thought about these things before he left. He thought about escaping with Da Tou, but after he found out that Li Si was Prince Cheng and Su Chang, he gave up this idea.
I originally thought that the five-color jade case must involve very important people in the court or the royal family. The relationships between these people in Kyoto are complicated. The officials may not pick them up and put them down lightly. , then it will not be easy for him to get along when he goes to Kyoto in the future, not to mention that Chen Zhong will not really protect him.
After knowing that it was Prince Cheng, he no longer worried. Thinking about it, Zhang San may not be a big shot, but what they did, in Wu Chen's view, not only required ancient books and secrets, but also required a certain amount of power and money. Moreover, it must be crazy and indispensable. Wu Chen felt that this matter could be explained by the official family.
Obviously, Song Gu and Wu Chen had different views, but Wu Chen listened to the advice and just told him:
"When Deputy Yu comes, I will make it clear to him. , just like when we entered the cave, you follow me closely. There are more people this time. You have brought your personal followers. Deputy Envoy Yu will also choose a few more personal soldiers to accompany them. When you catch up with them, you must not take it lightly. The enemy, don't think that you are safe if you are not in the cave..."
Song Gu said quickly:
"We have also received a secret order. The officials want you to rush to Longgu Mountain as quickly as possible. I just want you to sit back and wait. I think that’s fine. There will definitely be others there by then. We don’t need to waste any words on whether they are all eliminated.”
Wu Chen frowned and said, "But I don't know how many people will suffer along the way."
Song Gu sighed, took the water bag handed over by his attendant, took a sip and said, "Things have their own priorities. Don't be impatient. When Deputy Envoy Yu arrives, we will still hurry up. If we encounter It's God's will. If it doesn't happen..."
The second year of high school said: "It's hard to say. Just seeing that they took this direction of Yu County, it's not the shortest way. Who knows what they will do? There will be no diversion.”(End of Chapter)
