"I just told Bei Heng that I'm going to go pick up my mother and the others. I'm afraid the journey will become increasingly dangerous, so we should go there early." Su Qi was worried about her own children, and now that she had some free time, she missed the four little ones especially.
Especially the two little ones, Yuebao and Xibao, since she left them at such a young age. I wonder if they still remember her as their mother.
Gu Beiheng and Su Qi have the same heart.
He couldn't tell what the two little girls looked like from Dabao and Erbao's drawings, but he had heard that one looked like Dabao and the other like Erbao, so he had a vague idea of what they looked like.
When the War King learned that they would be leaving later, he hurriedly pulled Gu Beiheng over and handed over all his affairs to him.
The troops, the army, and the property in his hands, "We will go to the imperial mausoleum immediately after we pick up your mother."
Gu Beiheng only took part of it and did not take the rest.
"Keep these for yourself. And take care of your own army." Gu Beiheng did not intend to join Dong Qi's army. He knew that if he wanted to get deeper inside, he had to go there in person and live and eat with those generals.
Fight together and kill the enemy.
But he has his plans.
"Isn't what's mine yours? When your mother comes back, I have to compensate her and take her to live our own life." The War King didn't expect that there would be a gift that he couldn't give away.
God knows how many people are eyeing the people under his command.
"Long Xuancheng has been wanting my tiger talisman for a long time, and I have never let him go."
Gu Beiheng looked at the War King dimly, "You might as well let it go. My energy doesn't allow me to go back to the army. Your generals will naturally not obey me, General Gu of Dashun."
"My Gu family army will always be superior to yours, so leave it to me when the time comes."
Gu Beiheng knew that if he took over now, the veterans in the army would definitely not accept it. They would also make demands and negotiate conditions, unless he was willing to stay in there for a few years to win them over.
But he wasn't going to spend his time on that.
"I've taken over this mine, and I've also taken over these industries that were damaged by my suppression." Gu Beiheng took a look and said, "The Tiger Guards are already enough in my hands. I also want a Han Army."
"I still want to talk to Wan'er..."
"My mother may not like you. If you take the opportunity to deceive my mother or use force, I will still be your enemy." Gu Beiheng said coldly.
King Zhan was very depressed, thinking that Qin Wan must still love him.
Only this person who looks like him dares to sneer at him like this. If it were anyone else, he would have been defeated by him long ago.
He held the things in his hand that he couldn't give away, and thought of what Rong Zhen had said. He couldn't help but sigh, "When can I live a happy retirement life?"
Su Qi glanced at the War King and was sure that Old Ancestor Rong Zhen was indeed a fellow villager.
A few people disguised themselves and left the villa to greet Qin Wan and others.
On the way, Yingyi and Yingsan had already contacted each other.
When I got outside, I felt the tension and there were a lot of rumors.
It was simply that Prince Zhan's mansion had been deserted overnight, leading people to suspect it had been destroyed. Others said Prince Zhan had committed a crime and escaped.
The emperor brought people to the gate of the palace for inspection and issued an order to capture Zhan Wang, Gu Beiheng and Su Qi.
The meaning of the decree was that he and Prince Zhan were alienated by bad people. It was because of this that Prince Zhan was deceived and made a big mistake, killing the Queen Mother and forcing the emperor to abdicate.
Naturally, the so-called bad guys must be Gu Beiheng and Su Qi.
He also had doubts about Gu Beiheng's background and wrote down all his doubts.
If he lets the King of War come back, he will pardon his death penalty.
For a moment.
The public was in an uproar.
Everyone is talking about this.
Gu Beiheng and his companions drove forward in three carriages, Bai Zhi and Nanny Hua were in the last one, and the War King was in the first one. Along the way, he could hear people passing by talking about it.
Came to a small town.
This is also the place we agreed with Qin Wan and the others.
The inn in the small town was owned by the War King, but it was named after one of his trusted followers. Before the group even reached the inn, they saw a yamen runner hurriedly passing by.
Passersby were also talking about it.
"Is the Emperor going to capture the War King?"
"It's that General Gu from Dashun. I don't know what kind of evil magic he used to make our War King lose his mind."
Some disagreed. "I don't think so. General Gu's previous portrait and our War King's were carved from the same mold."
"As for why the War King didn't marry in his early years and gave up his throne, I always feel there is something behind it."
"Hush. Don't say that."
"That's not right. If that General Gu is really the son of the War King, why would the Emperor deny him?"
…
In the end, they split into two factions.
Everyone was arguing so fiercely that they were almost fighting.
Aunt Hua poked her head out of the carriage and said mysteriously:
"I heard this from my son, a shopkeeper in the capital. If the War King has no biological son, everything he has will go to his adopted son and the royal family. And the royal family will take the majority of it."
After saying that, he lowered the curtain.
When passersby heard this, it seemed to make sense.
Isn't the emperor going too far?
We checked into the inn and asked for two adjacent small courtyards.
The War King paced back and forth in the courtyard, and Gu Beiheng was called over by him. After just a cup of tea, he asked, "Which road did they take? How about I go to the official road to meet them?"
Su Qi brewed a pot of cloud tea, feeling quite nervous. But seeing Gu Beiheng and Zhan Wang, both father and son, looking nervous, she could only comfort them.
"Just to be on the safe side, let's wait until they arrive at the inn to reunite. There are too many spies outside, and this is a critical period."
Gu Beiheng nodded without saying anything. He was eager to see his little girl right now.
Qin Wan and his group traveled through mountains and rivers and arrived outside the town.
Yuebao and Xibao had just woken up, and the two little girls opened their sleepy eyes, looking at the scenery outside curiously, giggling non-stop.
I smelled the aroma of fried dumplings and rice cakes sold by vendors.
Xibao sniffed, put his thumb in his mouth and sucked it, his eyes almost popping out and landing on the rice cake.
There are people setting up a checkpoint ahead to check people coming in and out.
Qin Wan was holding Yuebao, while Yun Manyu was holding Xibao. They looked at each other, their hearts skipping a beat.
She had experienced so much along the way. For Yun Manyu, these were matters of life and death.
"What should I do?" Yun Manyu moved her lips.
Qin Wan had experienced a lot when he was young, so even though he felt a bit nervous, he remained calm.
"It's okay, stay calm." She also responded by mouthing.
When they arrived at the checkpoint, Xianghe spoke up. "Sir, are there bandits in this town? It's so scary. We are all old and young in this group."
Xiang He calmly stuffed a purse into her pocket and said with a smile, "Our old lady is here to visit relatives. She's really exhausted from the journey. She almost got killed by bandits not long ago. I beg the officer to speak softly when he interrogates her."
The captain shook the weight in his hand and listened to Xianghe's words. She was not as arrogant as other maids from powerful families.
He glanced at the cars behind him and happened to see Erbao smiling at him with a candied haws in his hand.
"Visiting relatives?"
"Yes. Our old lady has a very good friend who is married to the second master of the Li family. A few days ago, she wrote to our old lady saying that she was not feeling well and didn't know what her future would be like. Thinking that she was a close friend of our youth, I hope to see her again."
Xiang He wiped the corners of her eyes when she said this, "Our old lady hurried here from Yunzhou City."
"Are you from Yunzhou City?" The officer didn't care about the handkerchief friendship, he just asked an extra question because he was from Yunzhou City.
"Of course we are. We are Yun family."
"The Yun family, one of the three major families in Yunzhou City?"
Xiang He nodded, holding a Yun family token in her hand. "This is our Yun family token. It brings the Yun family doctor to the Li Mansion."
The driver, wanting to be nice, only glanced at the carriage in front and let them pass.
Xiang He hurriedly thanked him, "Sir, if you have any problems in the future, you can come to our Yun family's clinic."
