Chapter 314: Hostage (1)
Xu Wu took twenty people to hurry day and night, because he had to inquire about the news every time he went to a place, which was a bit delayed. After half a month, I finally found Huang Darttou and his party on the road.
Luo Shuigui looked at Xu Wu and asked with some hesitation, "Are you the person sent by General Yun?"
Although Yunqing is not very old, his reputation is very loud, and most of the people who are martial arts respect him very much. Of course, there are many people who have not practiced martial arts and admire him.
Xu Wu nodded, and then gave Luo Shuigui the military token of the Northwest Army.
Luo Shuigui is also a martial artist, and he knows the authenticity of the token after looking at it. At the moment, he smiled and said, "May I ask your surname, little brother?" I didn't expect Yunqing to be so hearted.
Xu Wu introduced himself, and then asked, "Is Madame in the carriage?" After speaking, his eyes fell on the largest carriage.
There are other people on the official road in this meeting, Luo Shuigui did not tell Xu Wu that the carriage was just a stand-in for safety. After listening to Xu Wu's words, he just nodded.
After Xu Wu got an accurate answer, he said to the carriage: "Madam, the general is worried about Madame's safety and sent me to pick up Madame." β
If Yuxi was here, he would definitely scold Xu Wu. It's a pity that the woman in the carriage doesn't know what to call a lady! Listening to Xu Wu's title, he said with a smile: "Husband has a heart...... the next words were swallowed back under the eyes of Mother Qu like a knife.
When Xu Wu heard these words, his face turned dark. Xu Wu's face was ugly, not because Yuehong called Yunqing her husband, but because the voice was coquettish and charming, with a bit of seductive taste. Although he didn't see anyone, this voice alone made Xu Wu very disgusted.
Luo Shuigui naturally saw Xu Wu's unhappiness, and hurriedly said, "Escort Xu, see if it's time to go on the road." "When a cadre is stunned on the road, it is also blocking the way of others.
Xu Wu nodded and said, "Okay." Although Xu Wu felt uncomfortable, he didn't think much about it. I just think that maybe this guy was born. listen
Qu's mother and Yuehong had a carriage because she was worried that Yuehong would do something bad and affect Yuxi's reputation, so she had to keep an eye on Yuehong nearby, and after the convoy continued to hit the road, Qu's mother said with a cold face: "Didn't you say that you didn't ask you to speak, don't you speak?"
Yuehong was a little aggrieved and said: "People come so far to pick up your master, if I don't even say a word, it's too unkind." β
Mother Qu was not angry, in the palace, she had never seen any kind of person. At the moment, he just said with a cold face: "Don't forget your identity." If the next time you take my words as wind in your ears, don't blame me for being unkind. β
Seeing this, Yuehong didn't dare to speak anymore.
The twenty people Xu Wu brought were all veterans, and each of them didn't know how much blood was stained on their hands, and their whole bodies were full of evil spirits. There is such a group of people who kill half of the gods, those horse thieves and bandits or something, where do they dare to bump into them.
At lunchtime, the group stopped to eat dry food. On an April day, the weather was very good, and I ate dry food with cold water, and it was not as uncomfortable as before.
Yuehong took advantage of this gap to get out of the carriage and get some air. Mother Qu originally disagreed, but Yuehong said with a bitter face: "Mother Qu, my legs are numb, just let me go down and walk!"
Mother Qu thought for a moment and nodded in agreement. However, she did not allow Yuehong to go far, only allowed her to stay by the carriage.
Yuehong walked a few steps, and she felt that someone was looking at her, and when she turned around, she saw a man in a military uniform staring at her, and then she smiled brightly.
Seeing this, Mother Qu's green tendons on her forehead were about to rise. Immediately stopped: "Hurry back to the carriage." "Don't be embarrassed here.
Yuehong was unwilling, but she was dragged back to the carriage by Mother Qu.
The soldier looking at the moon red is called Martin, and this guy is twenty-seven or eighteen years old this year. I don't have a wife, and I have nowhere to vent when I am energetic after the war, so I like to go to the building. He just felt that Yuehong was walking wrong, and Yuehong spoke coquettishly before, so he doubted Yuehong's identity. Gotcha, look at the flattering eyes thrown by the other party, there is no need to confirm it anymore, this woman is 100% problematic. Looking at the attitude of the old woman serving beside him, he knew it in his heart. Don't think that the soldiers are the big and rough, and they have their way of survival if they can live peacefully until now.
Thinking of this, Martin looked for Xu Wu with a thunderbolt and said, "Lord Xu, there is something wrong with this woman." β
Xu Wu turned his head and asked, "What's the problem?" Not only Xu Wu, but also the other soldiers all looked over, and those who could be selected to pick up Yuxi were all trustworthy people.
Martin said his guess: "Lord Xu, you also know my preferences, my eyes will not be wrong, this woman will not be a lady 100%." "Madam, that's a girl from the Guogong Mansion, how can she behave like this.
At this time, Luo Shuigui walked over. Just now, Mother Qu looked at Martin's expression, and knew that they were suspicious, so in order not to cause misunderstanding, she asked Luo Shuigui to come over and explain to everyone.
Luo Shuigui told Xu Wu the truth of the matter, and said, "The girl insists on taking the trail, and we can't help it." And this journey is indeed too dangerous, and it is safer for the girl to follow Master Yang and them. "No one knew that General Yun would send someone to pick them up! You know, you will definitely not let the girl and Master Yang leave.
Xu Wu looked at the five carriages behind him and asked, "You mean, the horse thieves robbed their wife's dowry?" If it weren't for the fact that his first task now was to escort his wife, he would have led people to Tiger Mountain right now.
Luo Shuigui looked at Xu Wu's expression, where he didn't understand his thoughts, and hurriedly said: "Xu Guard, we know that this person is a stand-in, but others don't know." Now it is imperative to send her to Yucheng so that the girl can be safer. β
Xu Wu nodded and said, "Okay, then continue on your way." "Since you're not a lady, there's no need to be too scrupulous.
Yuxi and his entourage took the official road, and it was not without a little twists and turns. No, when they came to a bend, there were a few bandits blocking their way.
Yuxi lifted the curtain and looked ahead, and saw six people in front of him, each of whom was holding a big knife, which looked quite scary.
At this moment, one of the bandits said to them: "I opened this mountain, and I planted this tree." If you want to cross this road, leave the money to buy the road. β
Yuxi snorted and laughed, this is smooth, and it is well made.
Zi Jin has not been in a good mood these days, and when she saw that someone dared to block her way, she jumped off the horse and was ready to vent her anger in her heart.
Seeing this, Master Yang said, "Don't beat you to death. "These few are not real bandits at first glance, I guess they want to get a vote! Real bandits, where will they talk such nonsense to you, and they will directly rush up and cut people.
After listening to Master Yang's words, Zi Jin didn't kill them, but just beat these people to the ground and couldn't get up, wailing.
Yuxi said, "Let's go!"
In the evening, the four of them stayed at an ordinary inn. This replaced the large box with two small boxes, and Zijin carried a box in one hand with both hands, as if playing. This gave the side the illusion that there must have been only light things in the box, otherwise it would have been so easy to pick up. For this, it saves them a lot of things.
After Zi Jin put down the things, she said to Yuxi: "Girl, I'll order two dishes for Xiao Er to bring them." "Yuxi doesn't go downstairs to eat. Yuxi is not afraid that women can't show their heads, but her rules and etiquette have been in her bones. If you eat downstairs, you will definitely be seen.
Yuxi nodded and said, "You go!"
It didn't take long for Zijin to come back, and Master Yang and Yu Zhi were also following her. Seeing this, Yuxi hurriedly asked, "What's wrong? Is there an accident?" The three of them looked extremely solemn, and they were 100% in trouble.
Master Yang looked at Zi Jin's face so dark, compared to charcoal, he sighed at the moment and said, "The people below are talking about Yunqing's fiancΓ©e being taken captive by the north. β
Yuxi looked shocked: "How could it be?" If it was said that he was robbed by bandits, Yuxi didn't feel anything. But it was kidnapped by the northern captives, what kind of concept is this? Why did the northern captives know her identity, and why were they able to rob her in the middle of the road?
Master Yang said: "Your news was not revealed before. I think the problem should be with the bandits in Tiger Mountain. β
Yuxi reacted very quickly and said, "It's not that it should, but it's for sure." Lu Kai, the military advisor of Tiger Mountain, should have a common enmity with Yunqing. He couldn't catch me himself, so he wanted to use the hands of the northern captives. Otherwise, without accurate information, the northern captives would not have risked sending troops to infiltrate the inner city and rob people. "The Northern Captives hate Yun Qing to the core, but they can't help Yun Qing, and when they heard that she was going to Yucheng to marry Yun Qing, they wanted to take her as a hostage, even if they couldn't let Yun Qing break their muscles and bones, they had to make him lose face.
Zi Jin heard this and said, "Girl, you can't go to Yucheng. "Yunqing is a dangerous body, whoever comes close to him is unlucky.
Hearing this, Yuxi turned his head to look at Master Yang and asked, "Master Yang, do you think I should go to Yucheng?"
Master Yang smiled bitterly and said, "Han girl, you can make your own decisions." "Lucky to have escaped this time, who knows if you will be so lucky next time. Marrying Yunqing is indeed very dangerous, and if you are not careful, you will have to fall into a situation from which you will never recover.
Yuxi smiled and said, "Didn't Master Yang say that I only cared about myself and ignored Yunqing?" How many people in this world would jump down without hesitation knowing that there was a fire pit in front of you that might make you lose your life at any time? Maybe there is, but not including her.
Master Yang didn't know that Yuxi's vindictiveness was so strong, so he refuted his words at once, coughed twice and said, "It's your own business, you can just make up your mind." β
Yu Zhi looked at Yuxi and asked, "Miss Han, are you really not going to Yucheng?"
Yuxi smiled and said, "Go, why don't you go." Didn't you say that if I missed a man like Yunqing, I would regret it for the rest of my life?"
Yu Zhi was a little surprised to see Yuxi go to Yucheng so neatly. This is completely different from the previous attitude, and he couldn't help but ask, "Aren't you afraid of being implicated by General Yun?"
Yuxi looked up through the window and looked outside, and after a while, he turned his head and said, "Of course I'm afraid." It's just that if death is worth it, what is there to fear from death. β
ps: There is one more change in the evening. R1148
