Chapter 5 — Trung Trinh Guest

I said it several times, but she still tilted her ear, full of confusion. "Which family are you from, Miss?" I shook my head. I don't want to say too much, just ask you to pass these things on to Trieu Ky Thanh. Having finished speaking, I turned around and left. The old woman looked at the delicately carved sword box, misunderstood what I meant, and quickly called out: "Oh my! Our lord won't get married, I'm afraid I've betrayed the lady's true feelings!" I bowed and got into the carriage without responding. Treasured swords given to heroes... just to show gratitude. Our strength is limited, we can only put our hope in loyal people like him, hoping they can be loyal to the country. The convoy, in the name of returning home to visit relatives, carried each carload of rare paintings and manuscripts down to the South. In the past, many famous sites were destroyed by war. What a pity. The soldiers guarding the city gate searched extremely strictly. I am passionate about collecting calligraphy and painting, everyone in the capital knows about it. Therefore, when they saw that the car was full of words, they were not suspicious. Furthermore... Luc Gioi's uncle still remained in the capital. I'm just a lady from the palace, not worth being wary of. But... Looking at the soldiers with bright eyes, examining each item in turn, I still couldn't help but feel nervous. Since when… are the inspections of the carriages of noble families so strict? Could it be that the eyes and ears of the kings have already heard the news? It wasn't until the inspection was finished that I breathed a sigh of relief. Who would have thought... someone raised their hand to stop the car. He asked me to get out of the car to search him. My heart immediately sank. In my chest... I still have my sister's pearl. The old butler immediately stepped forward to stop him. "My lady has a noble status, how can she be subjected to such humiliation?" "There is an order from above." The Guard's face did not change color, he took a step forward, his hand on the hilt of the knife. "Regardless of whether he is a duke or a noble." A bodyguard next to him glanced behind him, pulled his hand, and whispered: "Or... stop it." "That's Miss Truong." "Behind there is also a Lieutenant Commander watching. "The uncle was not reassured, so he still rode behind, keeping a distance that was neither too close nor too far. Unexpectedly... That Guard Captain did not hesitate at all. He waved away his colleague's hand and coldly repeated: "I told you so." "There are orders from above." "No matter the nobles and marquis!" The atmosphere immediately became as tense as a piano string. I sat stiffly in the car. Through the bamboo curtain, my mind was spinning trying to think of a way to cope. Hiding sister's pearl in a secret compartment in the car... Not sure if it can avoid being searched. If you show up at this time, it will easily make things noisy and attract even more attention. Just as I was panicking, a clear and calm voice suddenly rang out outside. "Is there an order from above?" "I don't know whose order it is?" "We are the soldiers guarding the city gate, but we have never heard it before." Faint light passed through the bamboo curtain. I see... Trieu Ky Thanh slowly walking forward. The tall and thin body stood straight like a green bamboo. The Guard Captain pursed his lips. Although their officials are not at the same level. But the Imperial Army was only responsible for defending the inner palace walls. According to his position, he had no right to interfere with the troops guarding the city gate. Without waiting for the Lieutenant of the Guard to borrow the name of Prince Liu Thieu, Trieu Ky Thanh spoke first: "I wonder if this is Your Majesty's will..." "Or the Crown Prince's?" "The general did not care about the reputation of the families, blatantly putting a curfew on the city gate." "People who don't know what's going on... still think that the person behind the general is planning something else." These words... clearly imply that Liu Thieu has treasonous intentions. Vien Ve Lieutenant's face was extremely ugly. He gritted his teeth and looked at Trieu Ky Thanh. "Trieu Ky Thanh." "Just stepped into the officialdom..." "Don't offend others too soon." Trieu Ky Thanh just bowed his head slightly. "I'm ashamed." "My nature is stupid, I don't understand the way of doing things."

officials, only know to respect the Thien Tu as the master, obey the Thien Tu's orders, not let the common people be confused and afraid." Finished speaking. Despite the cold eyes that were focused on him. He raised his hand to signal... for the carriage to go. The rows of squirrels simultaneously moved to both sides, giving way to a narrow path. The carriage continued to roll. Through the bamboo curtain. My eyes and Trieu Ky Thanh's... lightly met for a moment. ... Exit the capital and pass by. A few more gates gradually became sparsely populated. The guard leader raised his head and looked at the narrow gap between the two mountains, then turned his horse and said something to the old steward. The old steward frowned and quickly ran to the carriage. "Miss." "I'm afraid we have to split into two paths and change routes." At this time, the group had left the capital for seven or eight days Everyone was tired. I opened the car curtain and looked ahead. Originally, this trip had deliberately chosen a small route, passing through Dai Yen Kou, then following the Hoai River to Tu Chau. If we had just reached Jiangnan, things would have been much easier. Now, suddenly we changed the route... could something have happened ahead? The old manager nodded with a worried look on his face. "The general said..." "There has been something wrong since we left the capital." "I'm afraid I'm being followed." "Now that we've arrived at Dai Yen Kou, this place is easy to get in and hard to get out of, not even a bird can be seen..." "I'm just afraid of an ambush." "To ensure your safety... please change clothes with the maid." "We split into two paths, one will take us astray, we'll meet up at the service station at the wharf." I lowered my eyes and hesitated. The maid named Nga Nhi grabbed the back of my hand. "Tieu letter...""I'm willing." Don't wait for me to speak.
