Chapter 1750 Reunion with Qi Lie
Inspector Yin was guarding the city gate. When he saw their procession coming, he hurriedly stepped forward and greeted them, "Lord Lu."
Has General Huang's men arrived yet?
"not yet."
After thinking for a moment, Shu Yu decided to climb the city wall.
Looking down from above, the view becomes much wider. When Shu Yu gazes into the distance, all she can see are bare trees in the winter.
It seems we'll have to wait a little longer. Shu Yu took the stool Ying Xi handed her and sat down against the city wall.
Seeing that Shu Yu was guarding the area, Inspector Yin left with his men; he was very busy right now.
Shu Yu got up early in the morning, and now, basking in the warm sunshine, she felt a little sleepy. Just as she was about to close her eyes and rest for a while, someone next to her called out, "Coming, coming."
Shu Yu suddenly stood up and looked in the direction the man was pointing. Sure enough, she saw a line of people vaguely appearing in her line of sight.
Shu Yu squinted. It was too far away to see clearly, and she didn't know if the person coming was General Huang's man. So she raised her hand and said to everyone, "Be on guard."
The soldiers and guards stationed at the city gate immediately gripped their weapons tightly and stared nervously at the direction outside the city.
As the group drew closer, Shu Yu could see the person leading the way. Her eyes lit up, and she immediately ran down from the city wall.
"Open the door."
Lu Wu hurriedly asked, "Lord Lu, are you sure it was General Huang who sent them?"
Shu Yu nodded, "I'm sure, I know the person in charge."
Lu Wu was relieved, and the soldiers beside him slowly opened the city gate to welcome the troops coming from outside the city.
Before long, the procession approached, and the leader rode up on horseback first.
"Lu Xiangjun, it's been a long time." The man on horseback, full of vigor, laughed as he flipped off.
Shu Yu said, "Lord Qi, I didn't expect it to be you. Please come in."
Qi Lie nodded to Shu Yu, signaling the troops behind him to enter the city gate first. Upon entering, they saw carts of weapons placed to the side, and he immediately stepped forward with delight to touch them.
"When General Huang mentioned it, I found it somewhat unbelievable. I didn't expect these weapons to be so new and so numerous." Although he had been undercover in the black market for a while, he really didn't know that so many weapons were hidden in the secret room.
Qi Lie took a fancy to a sword, picked it up and tried it out. He was very satisfied and naturally hung the sword on his waist.
Shu Yu, “…” Is it really that open and aboveboard?
Qi Lie turned his head and met her complicated gaze. He immediately coughed lightly and said, "Lord Lu, please don't misunderstand. As you know, I went to the black market earlier and it was inconvenient for me to carry weapons. My personal sword is still in the capital. Now is a time of crisis, and having a suitable weapon is very important to me. I will explain to General Huang later."
Shu Yu chuckled, but didn't say anything.
Qi Lie smiled at her, then turned to his men who had followed him and said, "Everyone, get ready, check everything, we'll be leaving soon."
"yes."
His soldiers were also excited and followed suit, putting away any weapons they found that were easy to handle before reporting back.
Shu Yu shook her head, then asked Qi Lie curiously, "Lord Qi, have you returned to General Huang's side? What's the situation outside?"
When the topic turned to business, Qi Lie's expression became much more serious, but a smile still couldn't be contained in his eyes. "Speaking of which, I have to thank you for this."
