Seduction

Chapter 101 The mountains and rivers tremble, between life and death

Gu Qing frowned, and said to herself, "Could it be a military adviser..." Thinking about it, she tilted her head again, "No, Yuezhu used so much spare money to transport food to the northeast, isn't Chen Jiang's army guarding the northwest? "Gu Qing pursed her lips, thought for a moment, and felt that something was wrong.

If Zhan Xing borrowed so much food from him and sent it to the northwest, there is no reason to suddenly transfer his troops to the northeast. Here, if he really wants to transfer, he should tell him. If it wasn't for the tea business road being occupied, he would not know about it .At this juncture, Gu Qing really can't think of a reason for Zhan Xingruo to hide it from him.

Furthermore, the severe drought in Yuezhu has just passed, and it is time to recuperate. Since the war has caught up, it is even more necessary to save the treasury and transport grain across the sea from Japan. What is the strategy?Gu Qing couldn't figure it out, so she decided to write a letter to Zhan Xingruo and write another letter to Chen Jiang to ask if he knew about it.

If the person who transported the grain was not Zhan Xingruo, but Zhang Jiyao... Gu Qing suddenly became nervous. It will take three days, and after returning to Tianguan, they have no idea what happened to Zhan Xingruo. Since the last time they received a safe letter from Zhan Xingruo, the two of them haven't spoken to each other.

Gu Qing was a little worried, and picked up a teacup to drink tea while writing the letter.

"My lord, my lord! Put it down!" Uncle Wang just finished handling the bill, when he looked up and saw Gu Qing leaning his mouth to drink tea, he hurriedly stood up.

"Huh?" Gu Qing was taken aback, "What's the matter?" He asked, could it be that there was poison in the tea, who poisoned the tea at home?

With a distressed expression on his face, Uncle Wang took the tea from Gu Qing's hand with a wet rag from the maid.

"Master, this is boiling water. Cool it down before drinking it." Uncle Wang said.

Gu Qing was startled, holding it in his hand, he only felt warm, he lowered his head, and saw that his index finger and thumb were already hot red, as if they were cooked.

"Show me." Uncle Wang took Gu Qing's hand and instructed the maid, "Go get the master some cold salt water." The maid responded repeatedly and hurried away.

Gu Qing lowered her head, looked at her hand, and shook it, but she didn't feel any pain.Only then did she understand what Piao Yao meant when she said that the medicine would make her feel dull.

"No problem, no problem." Gu Qing said, "Uncle Wang, I'm fine, I'm afraid I'll have to trouble you about Dongpu."

"If there is any trouble, don't bother. If the master has something to do, just tell the old slave."

"Uncle Wang, the matter is very important. I don't have time to explain it to you in detail. I know that Gu's success cannot be achieved without your hard work, but this time, I really want it,"

"Master ordered it." Uncle Wang said again, "I have been advancing and retreating with Master."

Gu Qing looked into Uncle Wang's eyes. More than ten years ago, Uncle Wang didn't have so many wrinkles on his face, and his hair only had a few strands of white hair. Time never misses a single prey.

"I want to grab the control of that business road. No matter how much money it is, I must receive it. If the government's reserves are not enough, I will open the general mansion. If it is Zhang Jiyao's business road, I will notify you as soon as I confirm that the business road must be closed immediately. Don’t send him a single grain of rice.”

"This old slave understands, Master, don't worry, the Gu family has never lost to anyone in the gold and silver battle." Uncle Wang said.

Gu Qing smiled, "Since this is the case, there will be Uncle Lao Wang."

The sunshine in July is brutal and dazzling.

Chen Jiang took the army to practice in the woods some distance from the Lihuang City, trying to cool off, but unexpectedly received two letters. The letter from Northwest had just arrived, and Gu Qing's letter had just arrived.

After receiving two letters in a row, Chen Jiang became nervous before opening them. After all, in special times, there must be something wrong with the first letter.Sure enough, he didn't expect it.

When I first watched it, the Northwest was still the same as before. It was hardly a good news, because the barbarians were getting weaker and weaker, and they seemed to be almost wiped out. Looking at it together made Chen Jiang a little flustered.

He wiped his sweat, found a shady place to sit, and was taking out the two letters and looking at them over and over again, when he suddenly heard a familiar cry, and a goshawk from the Northwest came towards him with its wings flapping.

Wuzheng raised his arm, the eagle grabbed him and fell.

This is the third letter Chen Jiang has received in a while.

A few days earlier, Wuzheng notified him, asking him to count the number of casualties in the Northwest to see if the number of casualties of the barbarians matched the number of deaths.

"There is something wrong here, and the situation is not good." That night Wuzheng found Chen Jiang in the rain.

"What's wrong?" Chen Jiang asked.

"A Li guessed that the Northwest Army might have been emptied."

"Overhead?" Chen Jiang sat up.

"Yes, the barbarians have left a few people to kill time with you, and they have actually moved their positions." Wu Zheng said, "But this is all speculation, and no conclusion has been reached yet."

"Then, what to do then?"

"Let the Northwest side count the number of people, and see the number of casualties of the barbarians and the number of people left now. It's right. If it's not right, then it's transferred, leaving a few people to spend time with you."

"So that's the case, I'll check right away," Chen Jiang said.

He opened the letter, the words on the letter were written in a hurry and trembling, he squinted his eyes to recognize it, and then he saw clearly:

"The death toll of the barbarians is seriously inconsistent with the number of disappearances! Our army seems to be caught in a trap!"

Chen Jiang squeezed the letter, all the muscles in his body tensed up.Isn't this the same as what Wu Zheng guessed at the time, if this is the case, he has fallen into a trick to divert the tiger away from the mountain?He was deceived by Zhang Jiyao's blindfold.Zhan Xingruo and Wuzheng have never told him that there are places in the Northeast that need to transport food. In all likelihood, Zhan Xingruo does not want to transport the food.And if his memory is correct, it should be Kong Fuyi's army guarding the northeast.

Chen Jiang didn't go back to the court very much before, and he didn't know much about the affairs in the court, but now that he has stayed in the capital for a while, he still knows a little bit. He is stationed outside the imperial city. He doesn't know the exact location, but one thing is certain. There is no guarding army in the Northeast now. Who is the food for?

"End today!" Chen Jiang shouted, "Come back to the imperial city with me."

He stepped on the horse, waited for everyone to finish walking, and pulled the lieutenant who was still behind as usual.

"The general hasn't left yet?" the lieutenant asked.

"Well, I have something for you." Chen Jiang said.

"General, please speak."

"Take this." Chen Jiang slapped half of his Tiger Talisman into the lieutenant's hand, and the lieutenant was taken aback, "Help me pass the message to the Northwest Camp."

The lieutenant panicked, "You don't need the Tiger Talisman for the message..."

"Use." Chen Jiang said, "Tell them, keep 200 people in command, and all the remaining troops should stop chasing and turn around and return to Beijing quickly. We were tricked."

"Come, come to the capital?" The lieutenant was so surprised that he couldn't believe it for a while.

"Come to the capital." Chen Jiang nodded, "That's why I asked you to take the Tiger Talisman, you can only succeed and not fail. Do you understand?"

"The last general obeys orders!" The deputy general shouted, as if to embolden himself, he turned around and rode away.

It's rare to see a sunny day, but there are more bugs, making people read during the day, and screaming non-stop at night.

Gu Qing sent someone to light incense in the room. It had been a few days since the letter to Chen Jiang and Zhan Xingruo. Chen Jiang was very happy and immediately wrote back to Gu Qing. He didn't know what was going on with the army in the Northeast. But it's not his army anyway, his army is in the northwest, desperately rushing back.

But Zhan Xingruo didn't reply for a long time, Gu Qing wrote two more letters in a row, waiting for the day, but the three letters disappeared like a sea, and there was no news at all.He was a little anxious, and wanted to take advantage of the fragrance to calm down, but the more he sat, the more annoyed he became.

"Winter Solstice, call Piaoyao over here." Gu Qing said.

Dong Zhi nodded and turned to look for Piao Yao.

Gu Qing frowned, and was not in the mood to look at the blooming flowers in the garden anymore, she just rubbed her temples and sighed uncontrollably.At this moment, Lu Wangyao suddenly heard a cry.

"Brother Qing! I'm back!" Lu Wangyao was still the same as before, stepped into the house in three steps and two steps, and then rushed towards Gu Qing.

"Chen Jiang has been back for several days, why did you come back?" Gu Qing asked softly, with some reproach.He reached out and touched the scratches on Lu Wangyao's face.

"I took a stroll. It's been a long time since I went out." Lu Wangyao bared his teeth and smiled.

Gu Qing's originally serious expression was melted by his smile.

"What did you do with your face? Did you meet a robber again?"

"Oh, it's not common to encounter robbers on that road." Lu Wangyao didn't refute.

"Didn't I send Chen Jiang to protect you, isn't he here?" Gu Qing didn't seem to want to listen to Lu Wangyao's perfunctory.

"Yes, you only allow General Chen to be powerful, and you don't allow other robbers to be smart? I'm fine, just a small skin." Lu Wangyao blocked Gu Qing's hand.

"Wang Yao, is it fun outside?" Gu Qing asked after a pause.

"It's fun." Lu Wangyao nodded, "I was there last night," he even wanted to continue the conversation, but he had more important things in mind, so he stopped and carefully took out the fluffy ball from his sleeve .

"Brother Love..." He asked cautiously, "Can I raise this?" He raised his head and asked Gu Qing with blinking eyes.

Gu Qing lowered her head and looked intently, and found that the chick was nestling in Lu Wangyao's hands.

"No." Gu Qing said simply.

"Why?" Lu Wangyao was disappointed.

"Since you know that you can't decide whether it goes or stays, why bring it back?" Gu Qing asked, with deep thoughts in his eyes, Lu Wangyao naturally didn't understand, he curled his lips.

Holding the chick cub in her palm and reluctant to let it go, Piao Yao rushed over not far away, and Gu Qing nodded to him.

"Go to the house and talk." Gu Qing said.

Before Piao Yao had time to talk to Lu Wangyao, he was taken away by Gu Qing. Gu Qing didn't smile today, and couldn't hear any emotions. The two of them were inexplicably depressed around him, and they didn't dare to take a breath.

Piaoyao looked back at the chick cub in Lu Wangyao's arms, raised her eyebrows.

Lu Wangyao pursed his lips, looked down, and thought about what was wrong with raising the chick, why did he look down on the chick so much, when he raised his head again, he saw a bright smile.

She mouthed to him secretly, "It's so cute, hide it." Then she followed Gu Qing into the house.
