The inner courtyard and study of the government office.
Xiao Jingzhou packed the letter and handed it to Lu Chen.
"Let Lufeng..."
He was halfway through his words when he suddenly remembered that Lu Feng had reunited with Gu Zhenbei and had already left the city.
Xiao Jingzhou said in a deep voice: "Order Lu Heng and Zhou Wu to go to Guyan County together and make sure to hand this letter to Mu Zhao personally."
"yes."
After Lu Chen left the study with the letter, Xiao Jingzhou slowly stood up.
He walked to the map of the seven countries, drew out the sharp sword beside him, and poked a hole in the map of Dayan.
…
Outside the city of Guyan County.
...
...
"Not here?"
Zhou Wu subconsciously looked at Lu Heng.
Lu Heng remained calm and raised his head and shouted, "General Mu proposed to buy food, and that's why we came here.
Please go and report this again, young man. ”
The soldier on the city wall looked sideways and immediately ordered people to open the city gate.
Before entering the city, Lu Heng whispered to Zhou Wu: "There is something wrong with the soldiers on the tower. Be careful."
Zhou Wu nodded and straightened his back.
Two people entered the city, and the rest waited outside the city.
They were taken to the military camp. After the soldiers went into the house to report, Song Yuan walked out of the commander-in-chief's tent to pick them up.
Song Yuan greeted them with a smile: "Please come in, both of you."
Lu Heng walked in front, and as soon as he entered the tent, he saw a doctor coming out of the tent carrying a medicine box.
Mu Zhao casually put on a piece of clothing and sat on the couch.
His face was pale, and even his lips were covered with a layer of frost.
Song Yuan explained: "The young marshal was ordered to suppress the bandits, but he accidentally fell into a trap and was seriously injured."
Zhou Wu frowned, this was really such a coincidence.
First, the Eastern Zhou soldiers lied that Mu Zhao was not there. When they finally got in front of Mu Zhao, they were told that he was seriously injured.
Is this an attempt to completely end the cooperation between Dayan and Eastern Zhou?
Zhou Wu began to doubt whether Mu Zhao was really unaware or just pretending to be unaware.
Lu Heng took out a letter from his arms and handed it to Mu Zhao with both hands.
As soon as the two men entered the city, their swords were taken off.
Song Yuan originally wanted to take the letter, but Lu Heng blocked it without leaving a trace.
Mu Zhao took the letter and looked down at it.
White paper?
Mu Zhao looked up at Lu Heng and immediately understood.
He ordered, "Go and guard outside. No one is allowed to come in and disturb us."
"Anyone who approaches the commander's tent will be killed immediately!"
Song Yuan's breathing stagnated, and he quickly reacted: "Yes!"
After Song Yuan left, Lu Heng took out another letter and handed it to Mu Zhao.
Mu Zhao's initial suspicions were immediately confirmed.
He crumpled the letter into a ball, and a chill emanated from his whole body.
"You played a big game to distract me from taking care of Guyan County!"
Zhou Wu also heard something wrong, and he recounted the words of the soldiers on the city wall word for word.
He said, "If it weren't for Lord Lu's alertness, we might have turned back."
Zhou Wu’s words made Mu Zhao’s eyebrows jump.
How long has he been away from the Eastern Zhou Dynasty? How could such a thing happen?
It seems that the military power of Guyan County has been slowly shifting.
Song Yuan went away and came back: "Young Marshal, everything has been arranged. Song Xing will lead people to guard outside."
Mu Zhao hummed lightly.
Lu Heng asked: "Where did General Mu get this injury? How could banditry be so rampant in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty?"
Mu Zhao didn't intend to hide it: "I saw Mu Xi."
Lu Heng didn't know who Mu Xi was, but Zhou Wu knew very well.
Song Yuan said: "The killer pretended to be the eldest lady, and the young commander was accidentally seriously injured."
After a few words, Lu Heng finally understood.
He said: "The chess player knows General Mu's weakness, and he killed him to destroy his heart."
"If it weren't for His Royal Highness the Crown Prince remembering the covenant, others would probably become enemies because of this."
Mu Zhao understood what Lu Heng meant, and he said, "Dayan's weapons will never leave Guyan County."
The reason why he could make this guarantee was not because he was certain that there was no one with ulterior motives in Guyan County.
Instead, the terrain of Guyan County is dangerous, and the ground was overturned by a dragon half a year ago, and the crack has not been repaired yet.
There was no way for weapons and supplies to pass through.
Song Yuan said: "If you two don't believe me, I can take you to see what's going on."
Lu Heng winked at Zhou Wu, and Song Yuan took Zhou Wu out of the city.
After the two left, Lu Heng took out a transparent bag from his sleeve.
The bag contained various pills.
This was something Lu Chen stuffed into his pocket before he left.
Lu Heng counted out the treasures: "This is Yunnan Baiyao, it can stop bleeding, apply it on the wound."
"Anti-inflammatory medicine, oral."
"Ibuprofen, brew with hot water when the fever is high, and take orally."
The more he took out, the more distressed he felt.
Lu Heng glared at Mu Zhao and said, "I finally got some good stuff, I'm giving it all to you."
Mu Zhao: “…” He didn’t seem to be begging for it.
Lu Heng put the remaining heart-protecting medicine away carefully.
He said, "I have finished reading the letter. General Mu wrote a letter for me to take back."
Mu Zhao pointed to his waist, spread his hands and said, "I can't move."
Lu Heng frowned: "Then wait until your subordinates come back."
When Song Yuan returned to the city, it was already dark.
Lu Heng had his meal in the coach's tent.
Song Yuan wrote a letter on someone else's behalf and handed it to Lu Heng.
Before Lu Heng left the tent, Mu Zhao asked, "Have we met somewhere before?"
Lu Heng, who was walking in front, paused and was almost bumped into by Zhou Wu behind him.
Zhou Wu was confused. He turned his head slowly and said, "General Mu, who are you talking about?"
Mu Zhao smiled and said, "It's just a joke, don't take it seriously."
Late at night, the two left Guyan County.
Zhou Wu did not forget the main business. He said, "The situation in Guyan County is even more serious than that in Guanshan Road."
"Mu Zhao didn't lie. The baggage can't pass through that area."
Lu Heng nodded: "During dinner, Mu Zhao told me that there is a way to bypass Guyan County."
"where?"
"Lingdong!"
Guyan County, the commander-in-chief’s tent.
Song Yuan changed the dressing for Mu Zhao.
He said, "These medicines are strange. I have tested them and found them to be non-toxic."
"I don't know where they got it from."
Mu Zhao said: "There is a legend about a goddess in Dajing."
Song Yuan couldn't help but sigh: "It would be great if there was also a goddess in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty."
Mu Zhao smiled without saying anything, and Song Yuan suddenly remembered something.
He asked, "Young Marshal, do you know Lord Lu?"
Mu Zhao glanced at the heart-protecting pill on the table. That was what Lu Heng had left behind before he left. He seemed afraid of regretting it, so he left very quickly.
It was also because of this that Mu Zhao was sure that the two knew each other and were acquaintances.
Mu Zhao said: "I know him."
On the other side, Lu Heng and his group traveled overnight.
It was almost dawn before I dared to rest.
Lu Heng was sleeping in a simple tent. Zhou Wu beside him had fallen asleep, but he was wide awake.
His acquaintance with Mu Zhao was the fate of their fathers.
Lu Weiyi was a man of great talent. When he was young, he was carefree and traveled to seven countries.
He was acquainted with Mu Zhao's father.
When Madam Mu became pregnant with Mu Zhao, Madam Lu wanted to arrange a marriage for the child.
It’s a pity that Mu Zhao is a boy, so the child marriage had to be cancelled.
The five-year-old Lu Heng was stubborn and refused. The little bride he had been dreaming of was suddenly not given to him.
He sneaked into Mu Zhao's room in the middle of the night, wrapped Mu Zhao in a small quilt, and wanted to take him home.
Fortunately, Lu Weiyi discovered it in time and Mu Zhao did not suffer.
Because of this incident, Lu Heng was severely beaten by Lu Weiyi and was ridiculed by Mrs. Lu for many years.
Thoughts return.
Lu Heng sighed.
How come there is one more little bride for him?
