The people outside also opened their eyes wide like Gu Jinke, but unlike Gu Jinke's surprise, they were captivated by the beauty and their eyes were fixed on the person who just walked out.
Gu Jinke pushed the window sill of the room where they were hiding a little wider so that they could see more clearly.
The person outside turned out to be Li Yuxin, who was sending his father back to his hometown. No one knew why he appeared here. Gu Jinke concealed his worries and breathed more lightly.
"Boss, what do you think? I told you she was a stunner." The woman with a scar on her forehead who was sitting next to the leading young woman shouted.
The leading woman stroked her chin and nodded: "You are right."
After changing his clothes and shedding the dust and dirt on his body, the man looked truly dazzling and eye-catching.
The people below laughed, and some said, "This man is indeed better looking than the man on our side."
The leading woman waved to Li Yuxin and said, "Come here."
Li Yuxin walked up to her gracefully, and the woman stretched out her hand, as if wanting to touch Li Yuxin.
Gu Jinke's expression tightened as he watched from behind the window, and his hands were tense.
Li Yuxin twisted his body slightly to avoid the touch. He frowned slightly, looking a little annoyed: "Miss, please respect yourself. I said I'm here to find my wife. I already have a family and I won't get involved with other women."
The anger between his eyebrows and the shyness when he mentioned his wife were a mixture of emotions that were very charming.
The leader who she had avoided was full of anger, and her subordinates were ready to attack. However, after seeing Li Yuxin's expression, they looked at each other strangely and suppressed their anger, even showing a little smile: "We are the ones who broke the rules."
Li Yuxin nodded, revealing a bit of gentleness. "I was just on my way. Thank you for saving me and driving away the barbarians for me. I just wonder where you are from in the frontier? I just heard you talking, it seems very different from my hometown. I heard from my wife that the appearance of people in the frontier is very different from that of people in the Central Plains. I didn't believe it at first, but now I believe it."
The women looked at each other, and the leading woman said, "To be honest, we are merchants traveling around the borders to do business with the barbarians. We are on the road for most of the year and have no fixed place to live. We can no longer say where is our hometown, but we still have our hearts set on Jin. We only consider Jin to be our hometown."
Li Yuxin heaved a sigh of relief and smiled, "That's good, at least you are not barbarians. I am grateful for your help. When I find my wife, I will make her thank you very much."
The leading woman smiled and said, "Why thank you? I just don't know who your wife is. Why did you leave him alone outside? If we know her, we can give you a ride."
Li Yuxin showed some longing: "My wife's surname is Gu. This year, she was appointed by the court to serve as an official in the frontier. I heard that the court ordered to fight against the barbarians. I was afraid of the swords and guns on the battlefield, so I hurried to find her from my hometown to protect her."
"Being an official?" Several women's eyes suddenly lit up.
Li Yuxin pretended to wipe away tears, seeing the expressions of several people clearly, and immediately said: "Yes! My wife may have done it! She was working beside the princess!"
"Really?" Their expressions brightened.
"Of course I take it seriously!" Li Yuxin said somewhat displeased.
"My wife is well-educated and beautiful, and she is a big hit with the princess. She is always asked to do any good things. Moreover, my wife dotes on me the most! Therefore, if you send me to my wife, you will certainly get some benefits."
He glanced at the men tied up in the corner, his face showing a bit of pride and a bit of pity, and said, "Even these slaves you sold, I can buy them all."
The leading woman listened to the information coming out of Li Yuxin's mouth, narrowed her eyes, and then signaled the people around her with her eyes. The people around him looked stern and quietly retreated.
Her eyes fell on Li Yuxin. However, Li Yuxin had a very dignified demeanor and it was obvious at first glance that he was from a wealthy family. He also looked very confident. In addition, he also revealed things that most men didn't know, so people immediately believed him to the point of 50%.
She thought for a moment and immediately smiled gratefully: "Don't worry, sir, we will definitely send you back to your wife safely."
Li Yuxin raised his chin and responded, as if it was a matter of course.
The woman immediately believed it even more.
Li Yuxin continued, "My wife will probably send someone to pick me up. You can just send me to the ancient road outside Xuancheng."
Xuancheng is the city where the princess arrived. The ancient road outside has been deserted and few people walk on it.
The woman showed a little doubt, and then she heard Li Yuxin say shyly: "My wife said that we met again after a long separation..."
The woman understood immediately.
Gu Jinke hid behind the window, deep in thought. She glanced at Xun Ji. Xun Ji had been following her for many years, so he understood what she meant almost immediately. He nodded and quietly retreated.
Gu Jinke hid under the window and saw Li Yuxin and those people eating some dry food and grilling meat to satisfy their hunger. The leading woman tried to test him several times, but Li Yuxin answered her half-truthfully. The woman seemed to gradually believe his words.
Gu Jinke couldn't help but smile.
It turned out to be true when I said Li Yuxin was a little fox. However, it was a bit rash to want to deal with these people single-handedly.
She watched several people resting as if no one was around, estimated Xun Ji's progress, and gradually felt relieved. Finally, after these people had finished resting, they would escort Li Yuxin to find his "wife".
They were worried that the man tied to the wall would be a burden, so they only left two or three people here to keep watch. Before leaving, Li Yuxin looked at the man in the corner, frowned, and said disdainfully: "You'd better keep it in this condition. If it's too bad, my wife won't like it and won't buy it."
The leading woman immediately smiled and said, "Of course!"
After saying that, she glanced at her subordinates with a stern gaze, implying a warning. Of course, she was not waiting for Li Yuxin to buy it, but she didn't want to let a few more lives be lost here. She wanted to take it back to reward others and make it more useful.
The person who stayed behind immediately looked stern and nodded.
Now the leading woman finally took Li Yuxin out to find his "wife".
The people who were guarding the door before were the same ones who stayed behind to guard the man in the corner. They didn't expect it either. They thought they had just robbed a handsome man on the road and thought they could have some soup after their master had enjoyed him, but they ended up changing their clothes and becoming guests of honor. They felt a little embarrassed at the moment.
Gu Jinge finally found out that the person Xun Ji had left for her was already waiting there and called her softly, "Your Highness?"
Gu Jinke nodded, told them the number of people left behind, and then ordered: "After you sneak in, capture them all alive and don't let them make any noise, okay?"
Several people nodded immediately. They were all good fighters who could fight ten people at once, and these few people were just the ones who were not valued in the team. If they couldn't do this, they could ask to be transferred away from His Highness. After all, His Highness would not keep useless people around him.
Gu Jinke nodded: "Okay, go ahead and capture them and find out their true identities."
She waved her hand, and the people who stayed behind dispersed. Gu Jinke lowered his eyelashes, looked at their backs and smiled gently.
Their true identities will determine how they will be treated on the ancient road later.
As expected, there were no surprises in capturing someone with such a huge disparity in strength, and it didn't take long. Gu Jinke waited at the entrance of the village, and his men came over to report: "Your Highness."
Gu Jinke nodded: "Did you find out anything?"
The subordinate nodded immediately and said, "We asked them separately. After a few seconds, they couldn't stand it anymore and blurted out all the answers. The woman in the lead was also quite prestigious. She was the daughter of the mayor of the small city Guancheng, which is the closest to us in the Barbarian Country."
Gu Jinke raised his eyebrows. He didn't expect there would be such an unexpected surprise. No wonder these people were so interested in Li Yuxin's wife who was an official.
This Guancheng is the first city that Gu Jinke wants to attack. Now that the daughter of the city lord has come to her door, she would be sorry for her deep friendship with Jin State if she doesn't accept her.
She smiled and said immediately, "Okay, let's go and chase Xun Ji and the others."
Then she arranged for a few people to stay behind to escort the men they rescued to nearby villages or cities, and she took the rest of the people and rode at full speed to meet Xun Ji.
On the way, Gu Jinke finally understood why Li Yuxin was with these people.
According to the confessions of those people, they had heard that the Princess of Jin had arrived at the border to supervise the war, because their city would be the first to bear the brunt of the attack. The daughter of the city lord wanted to establish her own achievements and wanted to get one step closer, so she immediately sneaked into Jin with her attendants, hoping to dig up more information, and it would be best if Jin could experience the taste of failure in the first city.
As a result, when they followed their master out, they first encountered a confrontation between Li Yuxin and a small group of barbarians. Because Li Yuxin was beautiful, the city lord's daughter had evil thoughts for a moment and immediately showed up. The barbarians recognized her and immediately scattered. Li Yuxin regarded her as her savior and followed this group of people to the village to rest.
When Gu Jinke heard the cause of the incident, he couldn't help but worry for Li Yuxin. He was so brave!
Although Li Yuxin felt that he was brave, it was really unfair. He could only say that he was unlucky. Step by step, he ended up in this situation, feeling like he was walking on a single-plank bridge cautiously.
He originally came to look for Gu Jinke, and was almost in Xuancheng when he encountered several barbarian soldiers who blocked his way. He originally wanted to kill them and be done with it, but before he could do anything, a group of stronger ones arrived and scared the original few people away.
Li Yuxin could only half-truthfully trick people into going to the ancient road outside Xuancheng to escape.
According to the information I checked and the news I inquired about, this place is very close to Xuancheng, and there are not many ordinary people here. If we launch a surprise attack and kill them by surprise, we should be able to hold the leader hostage and steal the horse. Then we can take the hostage to Xuancheng and alert the local defenders, and we should be safe.
This way, ordinary people would not be harmed, and he also trusted the security forces where Gu Jinke was.
The group quickly arrived at the ancient road outside Xuancheng. When they got here, the leading woman refused to move forward. She looked at Li Yuxin and said, "Sir, I wonder what day and time you and your wife agreed to meet? How about I send someone to the city to let you know?"
Li Yuxin: He made it up. How could he know when someone would come to pick him up?
His eyes moved slightly. "Actually... it's today, but it's a little later... my wife is with the princess, and she will come out to pick me up in the evening."
He spoke with such confidence that the leading woman hesitated for a moment and actually asked them to stop and wait. Li Yu also took this opportunity to look at everyone and the surrounding environment calmly, thinking about how to escape later.
As the time grew later, the atmosphere seemed to slowly become tense. Li Yuxin calmly moved towards the leading woman.
The woman's eyes gradually showed a little doubt, breaking the silence and asking, "Sir, your wife hasn't arrived yet?"
Li Yuxin moved his feet slightly, but a calm smile appeared on his face: "Why are you in such a hurry? My wife will definitely be here soon."
The woman seemed to notice his movements and immediately said, "Don't move!"
With his hand on the weapon at his waist, Li Yuxin's expression changed. He no longer hesitated and prepared to take action. The atmosphere was suddenly filled with the smell of gunpowder.
"Axin, husband!" At this moment, a woman's clear voice sounded, calling someone.
The smell of gunpowder in this area suddenly dissipated, and the city lord's daughter looked in the direction of the voice: "Is this your wife?"
On the ancient road, a smiling woman in brocade robes came slowly over with a guard, leading a horse. She seemed to have seen Li Yuxin and was filled with joy: "Axin, is that you?"
Li Yuxin's body was slightly stiff, in complete disbelief, but his body was faster than his brain. He turned his head and saw the smiling woman he had been thinking about day and night. Then, as he looked at the person getting closer and closer, he ran over and threw himself into the woman's arms: "Wife!"
