"Lord Zhao, you are busy with official duties, so you don't have to go with me!" Bai Ruolan politely declined.
"Regarding the coal issue, I would like to discuss it with you shopkeepers. I have to go!" Zhao Muyun waved his hand, interrupted Bai Ruolan, and insisted on going.
Without waiting for Bai Ruolan to say anything, Zhao Muyun stood up and walked out, and Li Si and several other guards quickly followed.
"You are all old members of the Bai family. If you all follow me, I'm afraid the Bai family's shopkeepers will have some bad ideas. You just stay at the Duwei Mansion to guard it."
Zhao Muyun thought about it and decided not to bring guards like Li Si.
"Sir, your safety..." Li Si learned from Shi Yong that Zhao Muyun had been assassinated in Tongfu Inn.
Now he had just entered Shuozhou and had overthrown Sun Jizong.
Those who have interests tied to Sun Jizong and his cronies in Shuozhou City may not be willing to accept defeat and may even attempt assassination.
As a personal bodyguard, Li Si must take these aspects into consideration.
"There aren't many people in Shuozhou City who can attack me, so don't bother with them!" Zhao Muyun waved his hand and said, "You don't have to follow me!"
After saying that, he took Bai Ruolan and left the Duwei Mansion.
Seeing that Zhao Muyun was traveling alone with Bai Ruolan, Li Si felt helpless and worried.
Zhao Muyun is no longer the same person he was before. His life is not only his own business, but is also related to the tens of thousands of soldiers and civilians in Yinzhou Prefecture and the entire seven prefectures. He cannot be careless.
But Zhao Muyun didn't let them go.
Looking at the receding backs of Zhao Muyun and Bai Ruolan, Li Si became anxious and was about to disobey orders and lead his men to follow them from a distance.
It just so happened that Huan Naxue brought four or five Wuhuan men to report to the Duwei Mansion.
In order to avoid conflict between the Wuhuan people and the soldiers of Shuozhou, the 250 cavalrymen of Wuhuan were stationed farther away.
After all, the armors the Wuhuan people are wearing now are all leather and iron armors of the Tatars, and they are worried that they will cause misunderstandings among other Dayin soldiers.
It’s not that we don’t want to change their armor, it’s just that Dayin’s armor is too unsatisfactory.
Of the same quality, Dayin's armor is one level lower than that of the Tatars.
Therefore, considering that the Wuhuan cavalry would be used to charge into battle, Zhao Muyun decided to preserve the armor used by the Wuhuan cavalry.
After this battle, let the mature armor and weapons workshops in Shuozhou Prefecture give the entire army a complete upgrade of its armor and weapons.
"Why did Lord Zhao take Bai...Bai to the army?"
Huan Naxue was very surprised to see Zhao Muyun and Bai Ruolan traveling together, but Li Si, as a guard, did not follow them.
But then I thought, maybe they were just having a secret meeting, so I shouldn't ask too much.
While Huan Naxue was feeling conflicted, Li Si said, "Captain Huan, you've come at the perfect time. I'm worried about Lord Zhao's safety, but he won't let us go with him. Why don't you go and watch over him, so everyone can rest assured!"
As everyone knows, Huan Naxue is not only the commander of Fengzhou appointed by the court, but also the commander of the Wuhuan cavalry, and Zhao Muyun's woman.
If she went with him, Zhao Muyun probably wouldn't say anything.
"Okay, I'll go now!"
Upon hearing what had happened, Huan Naxue turned around and hurriedly chased after him without saying a word.
She is eight feet tall and fully armored, like a door god. No matter where she goes to fight, she is awe-inspiring and intimidating.
Especially the huge sword on his back, which is half a person's height.
With her by Zhao Muyun's side, how could ordinary assassins dare to get close?
Li Si's heart was half relieved. After Huan Naxue left for a while, he waved his hand and asked the other guards to follow quietly.
......
Zhao Muyun and Bai Ruolan walked side by side, making physical contact from time to time.
Just as Zhao Muyun was about to reach out and grab Bai Ruolan's hand, he suddenly heard heavy footsteps behind him.
When he turned around, he saw Huan Naxue, who was a head taller than him, chasing after them.
"Why are you here?" Zhao Muyun frowned.
I finally have a chance to be alone with Bai Ruolan, why did Huan Naxue follow me!
"My dear husband, you are now in a high position of power and influence, and you are responsible for thousands of people. How can you travel alone without guards?"
Huan Naxue called him "husband" to declare her relationship with Zhao Muyun.
She did not forget to look at Bai Ruolan provocatively.
At least now, she is pregnant and she and Zhao Muyun are actually husband and wife.
And behind her was the entire Wuhuan tribe, the salt lake and the Wuhuan cavalry as her dowry.
Several old brothers under Zhao Muyun also married women from Wuhuan.
In terms of interests, Zhao Muyun and her people are more deeply bound together.
If Zhao Muyun had not rescued Bai Ruolan, she would have died in Yanzhou long ago.
In Huan Naxue's opinion, no matter how much Zhao Muyun likes the eldest daughter of the Bai family, he will never fail to consider her feelings.
However, Huan Naxue's words made a lot of sense, and out of concern for him, Zhao Muyun couldn't bear to scold her, so he said softly: "Xue'er, everyone inside and outside Shuozhou City is ours, what danger can there be!"
"Be safe, it's better to be careful!"
"Master Zhao, please rest assured. I am only responsible for your safety. As for what you want to do, you can completely ignore me."
After saying that, Huan Naxue raised her head and looked to the side.
"What can I do? You're overthinking it!" Zhao Muyun was so angry at this clever foreign girl that he laughed. "Miss Bai and I were just going to her house to meet some people!"
"Lord Zhao, there is no need to explain to me!" Huan Naxue looked calm.
"Okay, okay, I don't know who taught you to talk like that?" Zhao Muyun laughed. "In that case, come closer to me!"
