Seeing the maid bring the dishes to the table, Gu Yanyue couldn't wait to pick up the bowl and chopsticks and started eating. She looked like she had been hungry for a long time.
Yu Wenran couldn't help but feel a little guilty when he saw this scene. If he hadn't fallen asleep suddenly, Gu Yanyue wouldn't have been able to have dinner so late.
Seeing Yuwen Ran standing there with no intention of sitting down and picking up his chopsticks, Gu Yanyue swallowed the food in her mouth and said hurriedly, "Ah Ran, why don't you come over and eat? Although these dishes don't look very good, they actually taste pretty good. But if you tell me, there is definitely no comparison."
After listening to Gu Yanyue's words, Yu Wenran sat down, picked up the bowl and chopsticks and started eating.
It was exactly the same as Gu Yanyue described. Although the dishes didn’t look very good, they tasted pretty good.
But he was used to eating the delicious food made by Gu Yanyue, and his taste buds had long been pampered by Gu Yanyue.
He used to think that food was just for the purpose of satisfying hunger, but now, for him, food must not only be delicious, but also make people salivate just by looking at it.
After resting, we set out again the next day. The rest of the road to Qianzhou was all mountain roads.
The road up the mountain was rugged and difficult to travel, and the caravan brought by Yuwen Ran was unfamiliar with the place, so they moved very slowly. At first, everyone thought that Yuwen Ran would be furious with them for moving at such a slow pace.
But after going up the mountain, Yuwen Ran's temperament suddenly changed. He was not in a hurry to travel at all. Instead, he seemed to be taking one step at a time and stopping at one step. He was cautious to an extreme level.
When we went on the expedition to the Western Regions before, we were too confident about the bandits in the mountains when we were walking on the mountain roads.
That's why Yuwen Ran and Gu Yanyue were captured and taken back to the bandit's lair. Finally, when they were trying to escape, they had no other choice but to go to Bai Youjin's forest.
So this time when going to Qianzhou, there are still so many mountain roads left, so Yuwen Ran naturally has to be cautious.
What happened last time must never happen again.
But God obviously did not favor Yuwen Ran. When he was about to reach Qianzhou, Yuwen Ran's convoy was suddenly attacked.
At that time, Yuwen Ran was in the carriage with Gu Yanyue, discussing how to rescue the people in Qianzhou so as to reduce the casualties among the people in Qianzhou.
Yu Wenran seemed to have thought of something, moved his lower lip, and was about to speak.
But he sensed something, his expression suddenly changed, and he suddenly raised his hand and attacked the carriage, shaking it into pieces, and then he brought Gu Yanyue to the ground with him using lightness skills.
In a flash of lightning.
Before the guards brought by Yuwen Ran could react, Yuwen Ran had already landed outside the carriage with Gu Yanyue, looking at the bandits or something that appeared from nowhere on the mountain.
In the carriage that Yuwen Ran and Gu Yanyue were riding in, several hidden arrows broke through the window and hit the place where the two had just stood.
"Who are you?" the guard leader shouted, drawing his sword and pointing it at the unidentified people on the mountain: "Defend! There's an assassin! Protect the young master and the lady!"
Then someone rode his horse quickly. The mountain was silent, and the sound of weapons clashing was particularly loud.
"Who are you?" The leader of the group of people on the mountain fought with the leader of the guards. The leader of the guards was so shocked by the leader that his hands hurt and he almost couldn't hold the knife in his hand.
"It seems that the emperor's motorcade is nothing special, and none of the guards he brought with him are capable of fighting."
The leader of the group of people exerted force and knocked the guard leader to the ground. He stepped on the guard leader's stomach and raised his middle finger to Yu Wenran, who was struggling to protect Gu Yanyue not far away. He cursed: "I didn't expect the emperor to be so rubbish?"
Yuwen Ran was too busy dealing with the enemy in front of him to talk to the leader of the group. Seeing that Yuwen Ran hadn't responded, the leader continued, "I know your last name, but you don't know mine. It would be a bit frustrating if you died without knowing who killed you."
He used his light Kung Fu to reach Yuwen Ran in a few steps, picked up the knife and stabbed it straight at Yuwen Ran's Adam's apple.
Yuwen Ran reacted extremely quickly, dodging sideways and picking up the knife he had just picked up from the people opposite. He collided the knife with the leader's knife, making a crisp "bang" sound.
Even amidst the chaotic ambient noise, Gu Yanyue could still clearly hear the sound of the two knives colliding.
"I am Wu Suo, the current leader of 'No Bishop'. I have come here today to take your life." Wu Suo revealed his identity and purpose at the moment the two knives collided.
Yuwen Ran was shocked. As early as when the previous emperor was still in power, he had heard that there was an organization called "No Bishop" among the people. From the moment they joined the No Bishop, they never trusted any emperor again.
In their view, those dog emperors spoke so righteously on the surface, but in fact, their faces changed faster and faster than each other behind the scenes.
Just like the incident in Qianzhou this time, the people sent by the dog emperor Yuwen Ran not only did not provide disaster relief, but made the situation in Qianzhou City worse.
He sent someone to investigate, and found that the dog emperor had sent two people. One was the dog emperor's younger brother, the current teacher of Prince Xiang in the capital. The other was the Minister of Revenue. Naturally, it was exactly as He Shuhuan had described. Raping women and taking sheep from the common people were common occurrences.
The King of Xiang who was devoted to the people had no real power, but the Minister of Revenue who committed all kinds of evil, such as burning, killing, looting and so on, was in charge of the disaster relief in Qianzhou.
So He Shuhuan wanted to cooperate with them once, as long as they could kill Yuwen Ran before entering Qianzhou City.
Since Yuwen Ran had no children, it was natural for him to pass the throne to Prince Xiang.
This was what He Shuhuan exchanged with Bishop Wu. He seized on Bishop Wu's suggestion that he would not serve any king, and used King Xiang's intelligence to exchange for their killing of a king whose life or death would shock the entire country and would be of great significance.
Since the first day that the bishops joined the church, everyone wanted to kill Yuwen Ran.
He Shuhuan not only gave them the opportunity to kill Yuwen Ran, but also promised to provide information that could help them kill the future crown prince, Prince Xiang. Wu Suo naturally would not give up such an opportunity to kill two birds with one stone.
By then, the world will be in chaos, and they can take the opportunity to publicize that all people are born equal and should not be divided into different classes. The country should be ruled by them instead of relying on an emperor who is trapped in the palace all his life!
