Seeing Yan Xun chasing Chu Qiao away in a hurry, Zhou You couldn't help but smile. He didn't want Chu Qiao and Yan Xun to get too close.

At this moment, the sound of horse hoofbeats suddenly sounded in the distance, which happened to be the direction Chu Qiao and Yan Xun were leaving. Listening carefully, there were also faint cries of women and children. He walked around with a slight frown, and hurriedly moved towards the direction nimbly.

It flashed away over there.

In the grass, Chu Qiao and Yan Xun were also hiding, looking at the people rushing in the dark. To be precise, they were a group of slaves who were forced to build the Great Wall.

Soon, amidst the rapid sound of horse hooves, a group of Western Wei cavalry came after them. They came to hunt down these escaped slaves. After catching up, they naturally killed them mercilessly. These dignitaries have always treated escaped slaves without mercy.

No mercy.

In fact, the government originally promised that as long as they repaired the Great Wall, they would give them the documents to free their slaves. However, after the Great Wall was repaired, the government betrayed their promise and forced them to flee, otherwise there would be no way to survive.

Whoosh... Wei Shuyou, the leader of the Wei clan, had just given the order to take action. With a sharp sound piercing the air, an arrow shot directly into Wei Shuyou's face with his tightened eyes.

Ah... Amidst the shrill screams, Wei Shuyou, who had a cold and ruthless face, fell off his horse in response, which also caused the faces of the surrounding Western Wei cavalry who had just dismounted to surround the escaped slaves to change.

Chu Qiao and Yan Xun, who were hiding in the grass, were also startled. Then they saw Zhou You swooping down from the mountain like a big bird, and then there was a ruthless slaughter. All the Western Wei cavalry were killed.

He was killed as easily as he was chopping melons and vegetables.

"This..." Chu Qiao and Yan Xun were both a little shocked. Although they had known that Zhou You's Qinggong and body skills were very good, they didn't expect that his martial arts would be so high. His sharp killing skills, coupled with his extraordinary

The speed of his movements is simply that of Shura God of Killing.

Those elite cavalrymen of the Western Wei Dynasty who had experienced massacres had not yet clearly seen Zhou You's figure, and before they could react, they were already killed by him.

In less than a meal, dozens of Western Wei cavalry, including the Wei clan prince Wei Shuyou, were all killed in Zhou You's hands. Only a few horses were frightened and fled away, but with the faint mist around them,

As it spread, all the war horses that entered the mist disappeared.

"Don't be afraid, I'm here to save you," Zhou You smiled at the runaway slaves who huddled up in fear, turned his head to look at Chu Qiao and Yan Xun hiding in the grass in the distance, and waved his hand.

The mist-filled Zhouyou disappeared together with the poor escaped slaves, and disappeared with them, as well as the corpses of the Western Wei cavalry.

The fog dissipated. When Chu Qiao and Yan Xun arrived at the scene of the incident, they saw only blood stains, footprints, and horse hoof prints on the ground. If these traces hadn't remained, they would have doubted that everything they had seen before was

It's an illusion.

"He...is he a human or a ghost?" Chu Qiao was really surprised, and Yan Xun on the side was also shocked: "Before at the hunting ground, and here tonight, how on earth did he rescue people?

And why do you want to rescue those escaped slaves? Is it because you have a lot of kindness?"

"You ask me? I still want to ask you! Who is he?" Chu Qiao said to Yan Xun angrily: "Where did you take my sister?"

Yan Xun smiled helplessly: "How do you want me to explain so that you can believe it? I really don't know him and have nothing to do with him. I really don't know why he said that before and why he wanted to save me. I still want to know him.

Who is it?"

"Then could he be from Yanbei?" Chu Qiao looked at Yan Xun's slight silence before asking: "Otherwise, why would he come to save you?"

"Yanbei?" Yan Xun was stunned for a moment, then frowned and said: "If such a powerful master were in Yanbei, there is no way I wouldn't know about it. Let alone Yanbei, even in the whole world, such a master would

There should be very few. At least among the people I know, there should be no such person."

Chu Qiao frowned and said, "That's really weird. Could it be that such a master appeared out of thin air?"

"I'll ask Yu Wenyue later, maybe he will know something," Yan Xun hesitated after hearing the words, and then said with a slight hesitation.

When Yan Xun mentioned Yu Wenyue, Chu Qiao looked a little unnatural, and her brows furrowed with a hint of helplessness in her eyes.

Although the disappearance of the Wei family prince did not have any impact on ordinary people, and even the news was blocked, the major families in Chang'an City and the emperor naturally knew about it, and they were all very angry and sent people to investigate secretly.

this matter.

The death of Yu Wenxi and the disappearance of Wei Shuyou all occurred in Chang'an City. This was undoubtedly a provocation to the imperial power and the family. If even Chang'an City was not safe, how could the Emperor of the Western Wei Dynasty and the powerful families feel at ease?

There was an undercurrent in Chang'an City, but it had no impact on Zhou You, who lived in seclusion in Chang'an City in a low-key manner.

Even if someone from the government came to investigate, it would be impossible to find any trace of Lin Xi, Zhi Xiang and others, and no one would think that Zhou You was the culprit of the recent frequent incidents in Chang'an City.

Maybe Yu Wenyue could guess it, but he probably couldn't really determine Zhou You's purpose of coming to Chang'an City, and it was even harder to find Zhou You's whereabouts.

What's more, Yu Wenyue also shoulders the important task of clearing out the spies planted by Daliang in the Western Wei Dynasty as soon as possible in order to revive the espionage paper and Tianyan, so she may not be able to put too much thought on Zhou You.

At the same time, after Chu Qiao returned to Qingshan Courtyard, Yu Wenzhuo also wanted to force Yu Wenyue to use Chu Qiao as a chess piece as soon as possible.

Although Yu Wenyue believed that Chu Qiao's current abilities were not up to the task, Yu Wenzhuo used the reason for Yu Wenyue's mother's madness as a threat, so Yu Wenyue could only agree and then accelerated Chu Qiao's training.

On the surface, Yanbei and the Western Wei court were in peace, but secretly there were already undercurrents. At this time, Yan Xun was obviously no longer suitable to stay in Chang'an. Yan Xun's mother, Mrs. Bai Sheng, who was worried about her son's safety, came to Chang'an in person

, hoping to bring Yan Xun back to Yanbei safely.

In the quiet courtyard, after learning that his mother-in-law had entered Beijing and arrived at the palace, Zhou You could not help but frown and said helplessly: "Women! Sometimes, I really don't know whether to call them smart or stupid. At this time,

Why are you here to cause trouble? Do you really think that a few words and so-called friendship can influence the decision of a superior?"

"Fortunately, the emperor still has some affection for my mother-in-law, and he will not embarrass her. Otherwise, I will have to save one more person," Zhou You sighed in his heart, but was not in a hurry.

Go contact Mrs. Bai Sheng.

The emperor originally wanted to keep Mrs. Bai Sheng, but Concubine Wei said that this would arouse the wariness of Marquis Dingbei and alert the enemy. The emperor thought it was reasonable, so he ordered someone to send Mrs. Bai Sheng back to Yanbei.

The clever Concubine Wei had already seen the emperor's determination to deal with Yan Bei. The reason why she told the emperor that way was just to hope that Mrs. Bai Sheng and Yan Xun could leave one by one. Although she wanted to help, in the end she could only rely on her ability.

That’s all.

After Yan Xun saw off Mrs. Bai Sheng, Zhou You quietly sneaked into Yan Xun's residence in Chang'an City and met Yan Xun who had returned from seeing him off.

"I never expected that you would be my brother-in-law." Even though he knew Zhou You's identity from his mother, Yan Xun was still a little surprised when he saw Zhou You again. Now, he finally understood why Zhou You helped him
