Liu Mo ran along the winding road like a bow, and the moonlight sprinkled the nearby hills into silver. He had to stay away from Rongcheng as far as possible before he was discovered.

By tomorrow, he will be forced to leave the road and cross the fields, trees and streams to get rid of possible pursuers, but speed is more important than cover at the moment. After all, his destination is obvious.

It is not easy to leave Rongcheng, which is heavily guarded. The soldiers guarding the city gate stopped everyone and investigated.

Fortunately, Liu Mo once sponsored Lu Sheng, who arranged a hundred households to say hello to one of the soldiers guarding the gate, and they waved their hands to let the carriage pass. From beginning to end, no one paid attention to anyone or something on the carriage.

But Liu Mo still felt that he could not take it lightly. If Gao Qi knew that he had left Rongcheng, he would definitely send troops to pursue him.

Gao Qi does not have the habit of waking up at night, so Liu Mo has at least time before dawn to try to keep the distance from Rongcheng...

This trip to the capital was not easy to do, so Liu Mo only brought Zhao Da.

On both sides of the road ahead, swaying lights shone through the woods.

"This is Ding Village!" Liu Mo thought to himself, "It should be safe!"

Zhao Da urged his horse to run by. He heard a barking of dogs and the yelling of donkeys from the cattle shed. In addition, the village was silent. Several fires were shining through the confined windows or leaking from the wooden boards of the house, but few were missing.

Just as Liu Mo breathed a sigh of relief and was about to rest, a sudden burst of horse hooves came from behind and caused Liu Mo's uneasiness.

"Damn it, will it be Gao Qi's pursuer?"

Posing his head out of the carriage, Zhao Da had already drawn out a single knife and was ready!

Zhao Da stopped the carriage, the person who came forward rode his horse, held the reins tightly, and turned his head.

"Husband, why don't you bring me?"

Liu Modding looked at it and it turned out to be Gong Xiaorou. A full moon shone in behind her shoulders, sprinkling a delicate shadow.

"Xiaorou? What are you here for?" Liu Mo was surprised, "Go back quickly and don't block the way!"

"I want to go with my husband to save my father," Gong Xiaoru said, "Don't drive me away!"

"Are you a weak woman, are you messing around?" Liu Mo frowned, "Be obedient!"

"Wmble woman?" Gong Xiaorou pursed her lips, "It's not that I brag, but three husbands can't beat me!"

The reason why I can't beat it is because Brother Zhu taught me all the martial arts to kill the enemy on the battlefield. Could I be dead?

"If you don't leave, I'll ask Zhao Da to tie you back!" Liu Mo threatened her.

"You can't!" Gong Xiaorou smiled, "Tie me back, husband, are you going to wait for him to come back here? It takes a whole day to go back and forth. Are you not afraid of pursuing soldiers?"

…

I was taken over by this crazy girl!

"I will protect myself, husband, can you let me follow you? Please..."

Seeing Liu Mo’s frown, Zhao Da also spoke out and advised, “Son-in-law, let the Fourth Lady follow us. If you meet a bad person, the Fourth Lady’s skill is not bad, and you can protect you.”

Think about it carefully, how could my father be arrested in a prison like a purgatory on earth, and as a daughter, stay at home with peace of mind.

With the skills of a crazy girl, it is no problem to deal with a few ordinary men who have never practiced martial arts. It is not embarrassing to rely on their wife to protect them! (Refer to Wei Xiaobao)

"It's okay to follow me, but you have to listen to me along the way."

"Thank you, my husband!" Gong Xiaorou smiled.

Seeing his wife's smile, Liu Mo was extremely bitter.

I can't let her know the pain Gong Changyi suffered.

For this reason, when Gong Xiaorou asked about her father's condition, he could only answer with a kind lie: "It's okay to be able to eat and sleep!"

Walking north, Liu Mo discovered that Gong Xiaorou, who was strong on the surface, was actually very fragile inside.

One night, Gong Xiaorou suddenly woke up and felt an inexplicable fear.

Above her head, the moon and thousands of stars decorate the night sky. Although she could hear Zhao Da’s dull sniff, the beeping campfires, and even the commotion of horses not far away, she felt the strange tranquility of the night, as if the whole world had held its breath.

This silence made her tremble, and she grabbed the sword in her hand, and a tears flowed out from the corners of her eyes.

Seeing this, Liu Mo quickly got up and hugged her gently.

"My father, is he really okay?" Gong Xiaorou asked in a crying voice, "They all said that the beast named Gao killed people without blinking. In his hands, no one could survive the interrogation alive!"

"When did you cheat on you for your husband?" Liu Mo comforted her, "This time I went to the capital, I rely on the evidence given by my father-in-law."

"Really?" Gong Xiaorou looked up, tears left pink marks on her cheeks. At this time, Liu Mo discovered that she was so thin.

"The crazy girl... is also a weak woman. She needs my care. I have to be kind to her in the future."

After about seven days of leaving, Liu Mo and the other two finally arrived at their destination, the capital of Daxia: Jizhou.

Jizhou City is almost square, extending for more than ten miles and is protected by high walls. There are a total of eight gates that can enter the city, two in the east, south, west and north. The largest and most crowded is the Zhuque Gate on the east.

Within the city walls, the city is filled with houses, trees, hotels, markets, taverns and brothels. There is a large fish market near the river in the east of the city. Hundreds of piers can be found in the port.

Between the buildings are wide roads, streets, and alleys with trees on both sides.

The city covers three hills, and the imperial palace is built at the top of the high hills. The royal palace located in the southeast corner of the city overlooks the entire river bay, the palace with marble walls, and the walls of the palace are painted golden.

Jizhou City has a very dense population, with a population of about one million. This number will fluctuate in winter due to people protecting behind the city walls. But it will not exceed one and two million at most.

Compared to Rongcheng, this place is a dirty and messy place.

As soon as he entered the city, Liu Mo saw the capital guards covered with golden armor, helmets and cloaks. They had about 3,000 people, and they were the main garrison forces of Jizhou City, responsible for guarding and maintaining the city and surrounding public security.

Shortly after riding, they passed by a high wall partition. The east side of the high wall was magnificent, and you could tell at a glance that it was the place where dignitaries lived. On the west side of the high wall, the stench of garbage could be smelled two miles away.

According to Huang Shouren's introduction, the west side can be said to be a shameful place for the All Daxia Dynasty. The poorest residents of All Daxia live in slums. The narrow streets and alleys inside are like mazes, crowded with beggars and the poorest parts of the urban population.

Before leaving, Huang Shouren had already issued an urgent letter to notify his friends in Jizhou and entertained Liu Mo and others.

The destination is not difficult to find. "Tingyu Tower" is the largest hotel in Jizhou City, which is a little higher than the neighboring houses.

After getting off the carriage, the shop's staff came forward to take care of the horses. Liu Mo took Gong Xiaorou to find Gang and walked into the inn, but heard a familiar voice. "Mr. Liu, don't be fine!"
