After all, we were traveling at night, so it didn’t take long before the team stopped in Yaozhou. Gu Huaian and the Minister of Hube decided to take a rest next to the woods outside Yaozhou. Gu Qiang also casually looked for a He leaned against the tree, but his eyes were always staring at the disaster relief money.
It's easy to sneak into the soldiers. Those escorting the disaster relief funds are orthodox troops. Even during breaks, they all take turns to watch. It seems that there should be no problem. I just don't know. These people who are watching the disaster relief funds Among them, are any of them deliberately arranged
Zhuiyun looked at Gu Qiang with his eyes fixed on the soldiers guarding the camp, and hurried over to poke her, "If you continue to stare at them like this, others may mistakenly think that you want to rob the disaster relief money. "
Only then did Gu Qiang realize that his look was too obvious, and he quickly took it back, "At least until now, no one has taken action against the disaster relief fund. I don't know if this is a good thing or a bad thing."
Since Shen Qianshan was no longer by his side, no matter what happened, he had to think twice. Is this thing good or bad for me? Are there any risks in doing this now? Sometimes, even I feel so tired.
"It must be a good thing that no one has done anything. I have been out of the city for so long. Mr. Gu, you will definitely not let you go back. Why don't you reveal your identity?" Zhuiyun, even a person in the world, has never been like this. It’s been a long journey, and to be honest, I’m still a little tired.
Gu Qiang naturally saw Zhuiyun rubbing his shoulders and moving his ankles, and raised his lips, "Okay, tomorrow morning, let's go to Yaozhou to buy horses, and then meet them on the road. By the way, I have to start again. Get another identity, luckily I have a human/skin/mask.”
Gu Huaian sat next to the bonfire for a while. He really didn't expect that one day he would become an official in the court. If it weren't for the Minister of Household Affairs by his side, he really didn't know what he should do now. He He smiled bitterly, but his eyes never left the cart of relief money.
To be honest, Gu Huaian is not short of money, but this time, that cart of money is the life-saving money of many people, and even he may not be able to come up with so much money right away. If someone wants to do something to him If we take action, this disaster relief is definitely an excellent opportunity.
"Mr. Gu, why do you seem so worried?" Minister Hube took the kettle and walked to the bonfire. Before he could get close to Gu Huaian, a strong smell of alcohol drifted over.
"Master Song, I'm afraid it's not good to drink while on official duties, right?" Gu Huaian was always wary of Song Yu. After all, there were countless people in the court who were under Gu Linjiang's command. They always keep an eye on those who don't obey them.
Song Yu sat down and said, "It's still too cold at night, so I'll drink some wine to go away."
The two of them were not familiar with each other at all, so they didn't have much to say. They sat quietly around the campfire. When dawn was about to break, a guard suddenly screamed, "Ah", and there was no trace. Wen Gu Huaian stood up quickly, but because he had been sitting for too long, he stood up too hard and almost fell back.
Song Yu quickly ran to the soldier's side, and when he raised his hand to signal to Gu Huaian, his hand was already covered in blood.
Gu Huai'an moved next to the soldier, and a crossbow arrow was struck behind his head. It looked like it was shot from the woods behind him. It hit his nose. The man had already expired. His hand was so steady. , when he was still young, he was really awesome.
Gu Huaian looked warily in the direction of the woods, but suddenly met Zhuiyun's gaze.
"Oops, I was discovered."
Gu Huaian was about to walk over to ask questions when the sound of horse hooves sounded again near the city gate. It sounded like there were quite a lot of people. Not only Gu Huaian and Song Yu, but also Gu Qiang and Zhuiyun were on alert. "Why is there a large group of people in this place?"
Gu Qiang was originally preparing to sneak into the city before dawn and buy two good horses. Suddenly, a soldier died, and the sound of horse hooves came again, and almost everyone escorting the army woke up. After coming here, where is the chance to leave secretly
Zhuiyun dragged Gu Qiang and hid behind a tree, quietly observing the people and horses on the road. Gu Huai'an's people and horses were all on alert. The city gate opened, and it was Bei'an's army that came out.
Seeing the marching flag, Gu Huaian felt relieved. Seeing someone resting on the road, Huang Hao also stopped. Seeing the chaos ahead, he asked, "Where is this team going?"
Gu Huaian recognized Huang Hao, the leader, and hurried forward to greet him, "General, this is me, Gu Huaian. We are responsible for escorting the disaster relief funds to Zhenzhou. There were some small problems on the way. Can you please do us a favor, General? Send us off." One ride?”
Huang Hao had been chatting with Gu Huaian quite well when they were at the border. When he saw it was Gu Huaian, he quickly got off his horse and said, "Mr. Gu, how come you are responsible for transporting disaster relief?"
When Gu Huaian was worried and didn't know how to deal with this matter, he didn't expect that another village would have a bright future, and he would meet Huang Hao. "It's a long story, but we have encountered some troubles now, and I hope Huang Hao will do it." The general can help us."
After Huang Hao understood what happened, he immediately nodded, "That's no problem. Zhenzhou is not far anyway. We are the army returning to the city. We are not in a hurry to go back and resume our lives, hahaha..."
Zhuiyun took advantage of the opportunity for the two parties to exchange greetings, grabbed Gu Qiang and left quickly. After changing his armor, he walked around the city gate on the other side, preparing to go in and buy things so that he could catch up with Gu Huai'an's army.
After Gu Huaian and Huang Hao exchanged greetings, he looked towards the place where he had just seen Zhuiyun. Where were the shadows of those two people
If it was Zhuiyun, standing in that position, he might be able to see what happened just now, but he was so distracted, why did Zhuiyun disappear
Song Yu felt a little bit in his heart, but since Gu Huaian could find a stronger force to escort the relief funds, he certainly had no objection. When he saw Gu Huaian looking at the other side of the woods, he thought he had just seen the soldier who shot him. As for the man, he quickly patted him on the shoulder.
"Master Gu, what are you looking at? We are about to set off!"
Gu Huaian and Huang Hao were riding at the front of the team. With Huang Hao, Gu Huaian felt a little more at ease. When the two of them walked together, they would inevitably sigh about Shen Qianshan, "It's a pity. I then searched for him at the border for a long time, but there was still no news about the prince."
Huang Hao has always admired Shen Qianshan. If he hadn't stayed at the border and attracted the attention of the Dongliang Kingdom troops, he wouldn't have been able to assemble the surrounding troops so smoothly, and he might have died in the battle long ago.
"This man has passed away, so there is no need to recall him anymore. But when did the general have a strong general beside him? How come I never saw him when I was in the military camp?"
As soon as Gu Huaian recognized Huang Hao, he realized that the general beside him did not look very strong, but his temperament was very unique, giving him a familiar feeling, and even feeling a bit like a prince. .
"Speaking of this, you don't know. When the prince sent you back, he was afraid that something would happen to the Ninth Prince's Mansion, but he didn't expect that it seemed to be a step too late. I heard that the Ninth Princess had already... Sigh..."
Although Huang Hao is a rough man, he also understands this feeling. "After Dongliang Kingdom withdrew its troops, I temporarily stationed there, but I didn't expect that a month ago, an army suddenly attacked us. Thanks to Only Feng Yao can suppress the opponent. I don’t know what methods the opponent used? He was able to see through a lot of our loopholes. Fortunately, Feng Yao came up with improvement methods in time, so I directly promoted him to My lieutenant, he is a very powerful person!"
When Huang Hao mentioned Feng Yao, he started chattering endlessly. Feng Yao seemed to take advantage of the compliment and greeted Gu Huaian with a smile, "Mr. Gu, it's our first time meeting you. Please take care of me."
"Report—two people came up from behind and said they were Mr. Gu's guards. Mr. Song said he didn't know whether it was true or not, so he asked Mr. Gu to come over and take a look."
As soon as Gu Huaian heard this, he understood that he was not blind this morning. The person hiding behind the tree was indeed Zhuiyun. "Okay, general, I will go to the back and take a look first. I will trouble you for the team." .”
Zhuiyun told Gu Qiang everything about how he was taken away by Gu Huai'an. Gu Qiang simply didn't want to hide anymore. He was already here anyway, so his brother wouldn't let him go back now, right? After the two people bought the horse, they hurriedly followed.
Gu Huaian was riding on the horse, glanced at Zhuiyun, and then looked at the other person with his head lowered. He knew from his figure that it must be his good sister.
"That's outrageous."
"Master, don't be angry, we just overslept, that's why we didn't follow. We didn't rush here as soon as we heard the news." Seeing the outsiders, Zhuiyun quickly found an excuse to excuse them. Qiang also slowly raised his head. This human/skin/mask was different from the one he usually wore, and Gu Huaian looked a little awkward.
"That's all, if you two are like this again..."
Song Yu saw that these two people were indeed Gu Huai'an's bodyguards, and hurriedly came up to persuade Gu Huai'an, "Since everyone has arrived, Master Gu doesn't need to punish them two. Aren't we still in a hurry to get on our way? There are two more people. More convenient."
