Chapter five hundred and seventy fifth warning
When Li Jie and his team were about to arrive at the gate of Fengyang City, someone suddenly rushed out of the woods next to him, which scared the team's horses. Huang Hua and others were even more frightened and pulled out their waists to take action. After all, they were worried that someone would attack them all the way.
However, Li Jie and the others soon discovered that there was only one person rushing out of the woods, and he was a Confucian scholar in his thirties. He had three long beards under his jaw, his facial features were upright and his figure was quite extraordinary.
"Get out of the way quickly, don't block our way!" At this time, the Jinyiwei saw that the Confucian scholar did not look like an assassin, so he immediately stepped forward and scolded loudly.
Although the Jinyiwei changed into casual clothes, they were all murderous intent, and they were holding swords and swords. Ordinary people would probably be scared to death when they met this group of people. However, the Confucian scholar looked at everyone very calmly, and then looked at Li Jie's face and saluted: "I pay homage to the prince-consort!"
Seeing the other party telling Li Jie's identity in one sentence, Huang Hua next to him was shocked and even wanted to go forward to silence him, but Li Jie stopped him.
"Who are you and why are you blocking our way?" Li Jie also asked with a calm expression.
"I am in Yangyu, I am here today to warn the princess!" The Confucian scholar said to Li Jie again with a serious expression.
"Yang Yu?" Li Jie felt very unfamiliar with this name, but when he heard that the other party came to warn, he was shocked, but he asked quietly, "What kind of warning do you show me? I am the prince consort of the Ming Dynasty and the Marquis of Jinghai given by Taizu. Who dares to be unfavorable to me?"
Hearing Li Jie's words, the Confucian scholar named Yang Yu sighed and said, "I am kind, why did the prince-consort make me? The fleet that you followed the original route on the Yangtze River has been burned by someone, and the other fleet that was walking on the canal has also been checked on the road. You must know more about these prince-consorts than me, right?"
"Who are you and why do you know this news?" Huang Hua couldn't help but step forward again and questioned sternly. There are very few people who know these news now, and it is likely to be blocked. Most people will never know this news.
Faced with Huang Hua's questioning, Yang Yu shook his head calmly again and said, "It doesn't matter who I am. What's important is that I know that Gu Wei, the guardian of the south gate of Fengyang City, has been instigated. Now an ambush has been set up at the city gate. As long as the prince consort passes by the city gate, thousands of arrows will be shot immediately. At that time, you may not be able to escape and die!"
Huang Hua was shocked again when he heard Yang Yu's words, and then looked at Li Jie next to him. If what the other party said was true, what should they do next?
Li Jie's face also turned dark. Although he didn't know whether what Yang Yu said was true or not, according to the current situation, it was very likely. After all, since the other party took action, he would never give up easily.
Thinking of this, Li Jie also looked up at Yang Yu and said, "How could you know these situations?"
"I not only know that someone is going to be unfavorable to the prince-consort, but also know who the mastermind behind this matter is." Yang Yu stood up straight and replied again.
"Who?" Li Jie asked in a deep voice. He had always wanted to know who was so bold and actually dared to do something to himself. If Huang Hua hadn't been careful, he would have been on the Yangtze River now.
"Wang Shuying, Minister of the Ministry of War in Nanjing!" Yang Yu replied.
"It turned out to be him!" Li Jie also looked shocked when he heard the name of Wang Shuying, but then he secretly hated him. In fact, he should have thought of it for a long time, because in history, Wang Shuying and Qi Tai were good friends, and they were also Zhu Yunwen's loyal factions. Later, Zhu Di successfully seized the throne, and Wang Shuying committed suicide to show his loyalty.
"Mr. Prince Concubine, is this person's words trustworthy? Should I send someone to the city gate in front to investigate?" Huang Hua asked Li Jie in a low voice.
"Send someone to go. In addition, it is not safe to be here from the city gate. Let's take a detour to the imperial tomb!" Li Jie thought about it before making a decision.
Huang Hua also agreed immediately and immediately sent a confidant to investigate the situation. Then the entire team turned around and left here. Of course, Yang Yu, a Confucian scholar, was also taken by them. After all, the situation is unclear now, and the person who suddenly came out to show his warning was also very suspicious. Moreover, he knew the identities of Li Jie and others, so he naturally could not let him go.
Yang Yu also showed great agreement, or he came to see Li Jie and had no intention of leaving again, so the group took a detour and left the city gate and rushed to the imperial tomb west of the city from a small road.
Yang Yu didn't say anything else on the way. Li Jie was very curious about his identity, but the danger has not been lifted yet, so he didn't have time to ask.
Just as Li Jie and the others were walking halfway, the spies sent out also caught up with them. According to the situation he found out, something was indeed wrong with Fengyang City Gate. On the surface, there were nothing strange, and there were even people passing by, but there were heavy troops hidden in the city gate. The soldiers on the city gate were all murderous intent, and they were definitely not like they usually guard the city.
In addition, Gu Wei, the city gate guard, was standing at the city gate wearing armor, and his eyes were filled with raging eyes to examine the people entering the city, especially when they encountered more than three people entering the city together, they would strictly investigate them.
"Your Highness, Gu Wei is indeed having a problem. If we break in rashly, we may be in danger this time!" Huang Hua said to Li Jie with lingering fear at this time.
Li Jie looked at Yang Yu. If this mysterious Confucian scholar really didn't lie to them, then what was the reason for telling him about these situations?
After confirming that there was danger on the other side of the city gate, Li Jie and the others felt even more urgent and ran all the way. Finally, they finally saw the imperial tomb. Li Jie had been here before, but they all looked at it from a distance and had never been in. Now he felt for the first time that the imperial tomb was so friendly.
Soon Li Jie and the others came to the gate of the imperial tomb, and the imperial tomb guards immediately stopped them. After all, this is an important place for the imperial tomb, and no one is allowed to enter without the emperor's will.
However, the situation is urgent now, Li Jie immediately reported his identity and asked to see the generals here. Although the imperial guards rarely contacted the outside world, they still heard of Li Jie's name, so they did not dare to neglect them and went back to report immediately.
After a while, a middle-aged general rushed over and immediately saluted when he saw Li Jie: "Tong Shu, the commander of the Imperial Mausoleum Guard, paid homage to the prince-consort!"
"There is no need to be polite to commander. Can we find a secluded place to talk?" Li Jie looked around and then asked again.
