Bringing love across time and space

Chapter 68 There is War Again

In the past few days, Gu Yuchen and Lin Qingya seemed to have avoided a disaster and never encountered any assassination attempts by men in black again.

During the day, they walked along the Road of Exile with everyone else, struggling forward towards the northern border.

When night falls, Gu Yuchen and Lin Qingya will be in space,

Drive a tank in front of the villa, or drive an off-road vehicle on the concrete ground.

There are many types of vehicles in Lin Qingya's space, most of which are tough off-road vehicles.

There were also several elegant sedans, but unfortunately, there was not a single sports car.

Gu Yuchen's mood was as bright as the clear sky, and his skills in driving cars and tanks improved day by day, becoming easier and more comfortable.

However, in this joyful atmosphere, they discovered a worrying phenomenon in recent days:

The crops here have all withered, and the trees have lost their vitality, turning yellow and dead.

The mountain is bare, lifeless and without any vitality.

The officials have also noticed the changes in this land in the past few days.

Yesterday they told everyone that they had to find ways to store food and water on their own, and the officials would no longer be responsible for these trivial matters.

This news was like a huge rock thrown into a calm lake, causing ripples.

Liu Shun's mood fell to the bottom. He didn't know whether he could return safely from the northern frontier this time.

The two-month long and difficult journey, coupled with the disaster in front of them, filled everyone's heart with anxiety and worry.

Except for Gu Yuchen, Lin Qingya and several uncles of the An family, everyone else fell into this negative mood.

They knew very well that this was the beginning of a famine, which would undoubtedly make matters worse for the exiles in the northern frontier, who were already in a life-threatening situation.

Everyone's heart is heavy, as if being pressed down by an invisible mountain.

The Ruan family was even more emotional.

Seven days had passed, and they thought that Gu Yuchen and Lin Qingya had already died, but unexpectedly, they were still alive and well, talking and laughing.

Ruan Yangjiang and his eldest son Ruan Quanjian looked at each other, walked to an empty corner, and talked in a low voice.

Ruan Yangjiang complained: "Quan Jian, didn't you say they were going to die? How come they are still fine?

If the emperor knew about this, our family would have a hard time again."

Ruan Quanjian shook his head.

He frowned and said, "I wonder too, they should have had an attack long ago after eating those things.

But they don’t look like they’ve been poisoned at all.”

Ruan Yangjiang was even more upset when he heard this. He sighed:

"But the emperor asked us to harm King Chen and his men on the way to exile. If we fail to kill King Chen along the way, we will stay in exile forever."

In fact, the reason why the emperor insisted on harming Gu Yuchen on the way to exile was simply to take the people's thoughts into consideration.

The death of a few people on the road to exile is a common thing and will not attract much attention.

Gu Yuchen died on the way to exile, and the emperor could also take this opportunity to shirk responsibility and find some excuses to cover it up.

However, if Gu Yuchen died in the place of exile, then things would become complicated and would inevitably arouse suspicion and dissatisfaction among the people.

Although the emperor was a little confused in this matter, he is still a wise ruler after all.

He had his own views and opinions on governing the country. Although he could not be considered the greatest emperor of all time, he could be considered an accomplished monarch.

However, this incident really made him lose his mind and make such a stupid decision.

Liu Yuhan has been anxiously waiting for news from there these days, but there has been no news at all!

If one day I don't find a solution, the sub-gu will break out of my body.

Moreover, when the sub-Gu breaks out of the body, it will die instantly!

Liu Yuhan has never failed since she learned how to raise Gu!

This matter was completely out of her control and it was quite a blow to her!

Lin Jingyuan has been observing Liu Yuhan's every move these days and found that she did not take any next action!

This left Lin Jingyuan puzzled, and he sometimes wondered if he had missed something!

So Lin Jingyuan would not let go of any slight movement of Liu Yuhan!

The reason why Emperor Yuan Jin did not send anyone to assassinate Gu Yuchen these days was because he encountered a more difficult problem.

Just a few days ago, the emperor received an urgent report from eight hundred miles away.

It clearly stated: "The Western Regions will unite with the Great Zhou and the Eastern Jin, and will probably lead a large army to attack the Great Yan Kingdom within three months."

The Great Yan State had a vast territory and abundant resources, and had always been a piece of fat meat in the eyes of neighboring countries.

Now the news that Gu Yuchen's property was confiscated and he was exiled spread like wildfire.

When the people of the Western Regions learned of this, they took the opportunity to unite the other two countries and prepare to launch a large-scale war of aggression against the Kingdom of Yan.

The emperor was fully aware of the seriousness of the matter. He knew that someone had deliberately leaked the news of Gu Yuchen's property being confiscated and exiled to the people of the Western Regions in an attempt to use this opportunity to provoke a war.

However, it was useless to say more now. It was impossible to summon Gu Yuchen again.

If Gu Yuchen was still stationed at the Western Frontier, he might not be troubled by this matter now, and there might not be this war.

But now, Gu Yuchen has been imprisoned and exiled to the northern border.

The emperor can only hope that other generals will step forward to defend the country's territory and the peace of the people.

The emperor also began to reflect on whether his decision was correct.

Did he do something wrong? Should he listen to the advice of some ministers and not take action against Gu Yuchen?

However, things have come to this point, and no amount of regret or self-blame will help.

The most important thing now is how to deal with the upcoming war and how to deal with Gu Yuchen, this hot potato.

As night fell, the Emperor of the Great Zhou stepped into a secret chamber.

If Lin Qingya were present at this moment, she would definitely be filled with regret. This secret room was hidden under the dragon bed.

The emperor walked into the secret room, his eyes sharp as torches, staring directly at Lin Qingya's uncle.

The corner of his mouth curled up into a sneer, and his voice was low and cold: “The only bloodline left by your good sister is now the princess of King Yanchen.

However, she had not enjoyed the good life of a princess for a few days before she was exiled along with Prince Chen. Do you think this news is worth celebrating?"

The emperor's words were like a sharp knife, piercing my uncle's heart. The emperor of Da Zhou said again, "Tell me the antidote, and I can give you a quick death."

The uncle sneered and spat in the emperor's face.

This saliva was full of disdain and ridicule for the Emperor of the Great Zhou.

The emperor didn't care. He gently wiped the saliva off his face and smiled even more brightly.

"If I die, you won't live either." The uncle's voice was resolute.

"As long as you are buried with me, what does it matter if I die?" His words were full of threats and provocations to the emperor.

The emperor remained unmoved. He shook his head slightly, as if mocking his uncle's ignorance.

He didn't know that Lin Qingya's mother and brother were still alive.

Even if he knew, he could do nothing.

This was because, in the process of seeking to seize power and seize the throne, he was poisoned and would suffer from an attack of poison every month.

The antidote can only temporarily suppress the toxicity and cannot completely detoxify it.

The reason why he didn't kill his uncle was because he was the one who poisoned him. If his uncle died, he would also die from the poison.
