Fu Hongxuan sat in the empty secret room and suddenly felt something was unreal.

it's all over!

Fu Hongxuan picked up the lantern and walked back, his long shadow cast on the dense road.

After Fu Hongxuan returned to the study, he used his hand to break the switch of the secret room.

He went to the storehouse to get two jars of wine and walked slowly towards the ancestral hall.

In the ancestral hall, the ancient wooden door was gently pushed open, and a faint smell of incense wafted to the face.

Fu Hongxuan walked in with steady steps. His eyes swept over the solemn tablets neatly arranged on the wall. This one was for his father, his brother, his uncles...

Fu Hongxuan walked slowly forward and gently placed the wine jar in his hand on the altar.

He took out the family tree from the secret compartment, flipped through the pages one by one, and finally came to his own page.

The three words "Fu Hongxuan" were crossed out.

On the day when Fu Hongxuan decided to start the rebellion, he took out the family tree alone and crossed out his name.

The ancestors of the Fu family assisted the previous emperor in establishing the country and swore that their descendants would be loyal to the Zhou Emperor.

Since he was going to break his oath, Fu Hongxuan would naturally expel him from the family tree.

A hundred years ago, the Fu family assisted the Zhou family in seizing the throne, but a hundred years later, it was the Fu family that destroyed the Zhou family's throne.

Fu Hongxuan felt bitter when he saw his name being crossed out.

Fu Hongxuan gently picked up the wine glass and toasted to the tablet.

"Father, brother, uncles, ancestors of the Fu family, this unworthy descendant has come to see you. By the way, I have a piece of news to tell you: the Western Zhou Dynasty has fallen."

Although it's a pity that it didn't end in his hands, this ending is not bad either.

It’s a good thing that Yao Chuguang cut off all his escape routes!

Fu Hongxuan sat in the middle of the ancestral hall, drinking and thinking.

At least by following Yao Chuguang, his brothers can have a good ending.

When Fu Hongxuan thought of this, he suddenly remembered the bet he made with Yao Chuguang.

An emperor's promise is still quite valuable. Now that he has given up his rebellion, doesn't that mean the hidden danger has been eliminated?

If he was told directly that he had new evidence, Yao Chuguang might deny it.

But we can’t drag Chen She and the others to expose themselves in front of Yao Chuguang, so what should we do?

Fu Hongxuan shook his dizzy head and continued drinking.

How about giving Liu Twelve away?

This might get Chen She and his men promoted, and a raise in salary would also be nice. After all, those who accomplish great things don't care about trivial matters!

The night deepened, and the stars twinkled, but Xiao Ge Lao and his entourage were still hurried forward on the official road.

General Park rode at the front of the team, always alert to his surroundings.

Suddenly, General Park stopped and made a gesture, signaling the troops to stop moving forward.

Wang Wenli saw this and rode quickly to General Park's side and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong? Is there anything going on?"

General Park pointed to the road ahead and said in a deep voice, "It's getting late. We can't go any further. We must find a place to set up camp, rest for the night, and continue our journey tomorrow morning."

When Lord Xiao heard this, he patted his old waist and said, "After several days of tossing and turning, his old bones were almost broken. It was finally time for him to rest."

The team followed General Park's instructions and the soldiers quickly dispersed to find a suitable camp.

Soon, they found a relatively flat place and began to set up tents and prepare dinner.

Wang Wenli then said, "I'm not tired. We're not far from Huayang. Why don't I ride back first?"

Then Lord Xiao saw the same scene being repeated several times in a row: Wang Wenli was tied up by General Park and thrown under a tree.

Elder Xiao felt that neither of these two people was normal.

The guy named Pu was not reliable at all. He said he was escorting him back to Huayang, but he ended up rushing all the way.

If Lord Xiao had not had a carriage to ride in and his hands and feet were not shackled, he would have thought that he was an exiled prisoner.

Wang Wenli was even more abnormal. Whenever he stopped, he would say that he was not tired and wanted to continue his journey alone.

At first, General Park tried to persuade Wang Wenli patiently, saying that it was too dangerous to travel alone. But later, seeing that Wang Wenli was unmoved, General Park tried to persuade him patiently, saying that it was too dangerous to travel alone.

Don't be pretentious, just tie it up with a rope.

Along the way, General Park and Wang Wenli fought with all kinds of tricks.

One escapes, one is kidnapped, one speaks little, and one is cruel and doesn’t talk much.

This resulted in Lord Xiao, who was clearly being escorted, becoming a marginal figure.

There were several times when Lord Xiao's carriage fell behind, and at that time Lord Xiao wanted to ask you who your guards were.

General Park looked at Lord Xiao's dark face and knew how dissatisfied he was with him.

But he also feels sad!

This crappy job is really too much to handle for a single day.

At that time, His Majesty summoned him into the palace and ordered him to escort Lord Xiao back to Huayang.

He thought it was just an escort mission and didn't take it too seriously. As luck would have it, he ran into Wang Wenli on his way back and said something to him.

As a result, after Wang Wenli knew that he had to return to Huayang, he actually went to the palace to tell His Majesty that he also wanted to return to Huayang.

At that time, General Park did not realize the seriousness of the matter, and his nightmare began.

Wang Wenli usually looks indifferent to fame and fortune and is not very interested in anything.

Unexpectedly, he was really eager to go home, and he rode his horse and whipped it as fast as he could along the way.

Under normal circumstances, General Park would not have noticed anything, as he could keep up with the forced march.

If you want to hurry, then hurry. If you arrive in Huayang early, you can rest early.

But the problem is that they are bringing Lord Xiao with them!

Xiao Gernao is already old. If he were to ride a horse like them, he probably wouldn't be able to reach Huayang alive.

Elder Xiao could only ride in a carriage, but this carriage was destined to be slow.

Wang Wenli said that he could travel alone, but could General Park be assured?

Definitely not. Wang Wenli is just a weak scholar. If he encounters bandits, he will basically be killed for nothing.

Not to mention that Wang Wenli is carrying the secret recipe for gunpowder, and no accidents can happen. Even if he dies in his own hands, he cannot let people with bad intentions capture Wang Wenli.

Besides, Wang Wenli’s wife is Lin Wan, and even General Park is a little scared of that woman.

So Lord Xiao really guessed right about one thing: Wang Wenli was indeed more important than him in General Park's heart.

Sometimes General Park still admires this pretty boy. He dares to marry Lin Wan and even turns a cold face towards her. He is so brave!

Even difficult things will come to an end one day.

When General Park saw the city gate, he almost burst into tears with excitement.

It was not easy, but we finally escorted these two ancestors safely to their destination.

General Park made up his mind. When he arrived at the place, he would drop off the people and go back to report.

He had no choice but to run. What if he was asked to escort these two people back?
