Chapter 200 The Man Yun Fu Picked
"Master Cui, please don't worry about what kind of person she is. Instead of wasting time, you might as well talk about your young master's disappearance." After Qi Hanzhou drank the tea in the cup, he slammed the cup heavily on the table.
He gave all his patience to Yun Fu.
Cui Chongzheng's expression darkened at the mention of Cui Lin. "Lin'er, in order to repay the princess's kindness, has been searching for that boiling stone since he escaped from the Ghostly Prison. I don't know where he got the news that it was on the Guifang tribe's sacred mountain, so he took his men there."
"He's been gone for nearly half a month. Regardless of whether he found the boiling stone or not, he should have sent someone back to report, right?"
"But the Cui family hasn't received any news from him. He and the four or five guards who accompanied him are all gone."
Cui Chongzheng's first reaction at the time was that the Guifang side had captured the person and wanted to threaten the Cui family and make a fortune.
After all, the Cui family has both wealth and power in the northwest.
Cui Chongzheng waited for a few days, but no one from the Guifang side came.
He took the initiative to contact Wei China, the leader of the Guifang tribe.
The reply was that Cui Lin had not been seen, let alone arrested.
So now, no one is seen alive, and no body is found after death.
"I've heard of your abilities, Princess. You once broke into the bandit camp alone and rescued Lin'er. This time, I really had no other choice but to send you this letter. I hope Princess will forgive me."
Cui Chongzheng admitted his little thoughts.
Yun Fu curled her lips indifferently: "Excuse me or not, I'm already here, let's not talk nonsense."
She didn't care, but she didn't know if Cui Lin could hold on.
"Find someone who is familiar with Guifang and show us the way."
Cui Chongzheng immediately replied, "We've already found the person, and we also have a few skilled secret guards who can accompany the princess."
Yun Fu gently shook her hand: "Secret guards are no longer needed."
"Then the princess plans to go alone?"
"She is not alone. I will go with her." Qi Hanzhou frowned unhappily. Is Cui Chongzheng blind? He is such a grown-up sitting here, can't he see anything?
"You? Isn't General Qi blind? Is it convenient for you to go together? Why don't you stay and rest? I will arrange a quiet mountain villa for you." Cui Chongzheng almost said the words "burden" and "drag".
Yun Fu didn't like people looking at Qi Hanzhou with strange eyes. Her originally calm face was now slightly cold. "Whether it's convenient or not is up to me. He can't see, but even if you Cui family's secret guards attack him together, they are no match for him."
The man chosen by Yun Fu is not someone that people like them can look down upon.
Cui Chongzheng also heard from his son that Qi Hanzhou was now a cripple and not worthy of Princess Yunfu.
Unexpectedly, a few words from me almost angered these two people.
He quickly bowed and apologized: "Then I'll trouble Princess Yunfu and General Qi."
No matter what, they just want to find Cui Lin.
——
The Guifang clan was located on the northwestern border of Dasheng, separated by a row of continuous mountain ranges.
The Guifang tribe lived in those vast mountains.
The old guide sent by the Cui family told the two that a few years ago, because a god of war general appeared in Dasheng, that general defeated the Guifang people and made them flee back to the mountains in panic. But ever since the god of war general got into trouble, the hungry wolf of Guifang began to stir again.
In a short period of time, they had plundered several small cities on the border several times.
The people living on the border were terrified.
Qi Hanzhou frowned, his voice cold. "What about the imperial officers and soldiers stationed at the border? Didn't they take any action? Did they just let the Guifang people bully innocent people?"
Mentioning the imperial court, the old guide shook his head. "Those officers and soldiers, seeing the Guifang people, ran faster than us civilians. Expecting them to protect us is simply ridiculous. Oh, if General War hadn't committed those treasonous acts, how wonderful it would have been! Tell me, why is General War so confused?"
"Old man, sometimes, when you look at a person, you don't listen to what others say, but what he has done. How could such a patriotic person betray his country? This doesn't make sense!"
Yun Fu couldn't help but speak up for Qi Hanzhou. She didn't want him to be misunderstood.
The hand hidden in the sleeve quietly held his big hand.
One day, she will wash away the stigma of the Qi family and Qi Hanzhou.
Qi Hanzhou also shook hands back, using silent gestures to tell her that he was fine.
——
Cui Lin previously joined the Guifang clan as a goods receiving merchant.
Although Dasheng and Guifang had experienced many wars, the people on both sides would still conduct some simple transactions from time to time.
The Guifang people would take mountain products, medicinal herbs, etc. to the border cities of Dasheng to sell.
There is also a situation where merchants from Dasheng enter the Guifang tribe to collect mountain products.
Yun Fu and Qi Hanzhou also entered the Guifang tribe as merchants collecting mountain goods.
The Guifang clan is very large, but due to the mountainous terrain, they are basically divided into small tribes, and the tribes are very united.
When they are separated, they are small tribes, but when they are united, they are a powerful force that cannot be underestimated.
One of their small tribes is roughly the same size as a village in Dasheng.
A large tribe has a considerable population, which should be the population of a medium-sized city in Dasheng.
Otherwise, the Dog Emperor would not have sent Qi Hanzhou, the God of War, to deal with the Guifang.
The old guide led them to a small Guifang tribe and left.
Yun Fu quickly got into the role, walking around the small tribe while shouting: "Buying mountain products, medicinal herbs, furs... I'll pay you for the goods."
The appearance of the two outsiders quickly attracted the attention of the Guifang people in the tribe.
Yun Fu greeted them warmly and took out some snacks she had prepared in advance and handed them to the group of Guifang children who were strolling behind them.
The group of children took the food and soon let down their guard against them.
"Which family in your tribe sells mountain products? Have other merchants come to buy mountain products before?" Yun Fu was just about to take the opportunity to get some information from these children.
The group of children were called back home by their families.
Immediately afterwards, several strong men from the Guifang tribe walked out of the tribe and surrounded them.
He said a lot of gibberish, which Yunfu couldn't understand.
Why didn’t the old guide and the people from the Cui family tell her in advance that the language these Guifang people spoke was different from theirs!
Yun Fu was completely confused when she heard this.
Just as her head was buzzing and she was about to go back and find an interpreter, Qi Hanzhou beside her suddenly spoke up: "They said they don't have any mountain products here and asked us to leave."
