1151 One Step Late

The soldier looked at her in astonishment and was about to say something when Long Chi suddenly pressed Lu Liangwei's face into his arms, and then explained with a smile: "My wife was sick a few days ago, and when she sees the light, she will bleed. Tears, let the military master laugh."

The soldier glanced at Lu Liangwei again suspiciously, but still didn't find anything special, and the other party looked sick, so don't have an infectious disease.

Thinking, he quickly lowered the curtain.

When Long Chi saw this, he let go of Lu Liangwei and gave her a sarcastic look, but didn't say anything.

Lu Liang felt anxious when he saw the curtains being drawn down again.

Long Chi also touched her dumb hole, so she couldn't speak at all.

And they also moved hands and feet on her face, turning her into another person completely.

She guessed that the portrait in the hands of the soldiers and soldiers just now must be her, but because her appearance was covered up, the soldiers and soldiers couldn't recognize it at all, and she was the one on the painting.

She borrowed the method of blinking and tears to attract the attention of the soldier, but the soldier didn't think much about it at all.

Lu Liangwei was very disappointed.

But what she didn't know was that, in order to keep her reputation, Long Yang sent the portrait to Xishuiguan, only a little like her, and he didn't dare to say that he was the queen of the dynasty, but only said that it was a certain one. The lady of the minister's family was kidnapped by traffickers.

In addition, Lu Liangwei's appearance was covered up, so the soldiers naturally couldn't tell that she was the person in the portrait.

After an investigation, the officers and soldiers did not find anything suspicious, so they let them go.

The carriage and horses passed quickly and left the Xishuiguan smoothly.

But just before Long Chi and the others came out of Xishuiguan, behind them, the hoofs rang out, and soon, a group of people appeared beside the city gate.

The person in the lead is Long Xuan, next to Chu Jiu.

The two took their men and horses and chased them all the way from Dijing to this point. According to the clues, Long Chi should have brought Lu Liangwei to Yan Kingdom.

But judging from the clues discovered a few days ago, the people are clearly still in the territory of Dashang, so the two traveled day and night to reach Xishuiguan as quickly as possible, hoping to catch up to intercept them.

He took out the token, and ordered the guards in a deep voice: "There are serious criminals from the imperial court who have fled here. I would have suspected that they were mixed in with this group of traders. Quickly close the city gate and conduct a careful investigation."

When the guards heard the words, they did not dare to neglect, and they were so busy that they temporarily closed the city gate.

For a time, the atmosphere around the city gate became tense and solemn.

Many businessmen who were waiting to leave the customs became impatient.

Long Xuan ignored all of these, and with Chu Jiu and others, personally checked everyone who was going to leave the customs.

But after working for a long time, no suspicious person was found.

Long Xuan put his hands on his waist and asked the guards, "How long did the city gates open before I came over?"

"It's about half an hour." Seeing that he was sent by the imperial court, the guards and soldiers were very respectful.

Long Xuan narrowed his eyes, looked at Chu Jiu and said, "It seems that we are still a step late. Maybe Long Chi and the others have already left the customs before we rush over."

The heart of the ninth day sank again and again.

Niangniang has been missing for so long, but nothing should happen to her.

"It can't be too late, let's get out of the customs as soon as possible." Chu Jiu said immediately. If Long waits for the talents to leave the customs later, if they are quicker, they may be able to catch up with them.

Long Xuan did not respond immediately, but looked at the soldiers and asked, "Did someone suspicious just leave the border?"

The defenders did not dare to neglect, shook their heads and said: "The last general and others have strictly checked every passing businessman, and no suspicious people have been found."
