Chapter 923: The Grace Alliance reappears
"The villains Lu Shan, Lu Cheng, have seen the little grandfather. β
Looking at the two people dressed as businessmen in front of him, Zhang Yue showed a scrutinizing look in his eyes, squinted his eyes and said indifferently: "You said that it was sent by Brother Mo?"
Lu Cheng glanced at each other, and the older Lu Cheng smiled slightly, nodded and said, "It's my aunt." β
Zhang Yue was stunned, with a strange look on his face, "Uncle?"
Lu Cheng and Lu Cheng were slightly stunned, and were slightly silent, "Yes, our young lady's surname is Cheng." β
Well, now who in the world doesn't know that the talented Su Mo has two fiancΓ©es. First there was the Cheng family, and then there was a Wang family. can pick the two golden flowers in Beijing in one fell swoop, and I don't know how many people are envious and jealous to death. It's just that this kind of mood is not so pleasant for the Cheng family.
Therefore, Zhang Yue's expression just now was very heartbroken, and Lu Shan's and Lu Cheng's smiles became a little cold.
"Ahem, what, I don't mean anything else...... Well, it was Cheng Shilang who I went to see with my Uncle Su at the beginning......" Zhang Yue was also a little embarrassed, and hurriedly remedied.
Then, without waiting for the two to react, he quickly diverted the topic and asked, "Your uncle...... What's the matter with sending you, and how does he know I'm coming?"
It's a bit mysterious. Could it be that Boss Su could really predict the prophet and anticipate that he would leave the city early? Now that he is in the enemy camp, he can't be less cautious about this matter.
Lu Cheng smiled again, as if he could see Zhang Yue's suspicions, but at this time, Lu Cheng replied and said with a smile: "We have already come over before you arrived in Datong." Well, don't worry, it's as a businessman. Our alliance has always traveled between the north and the south with caravans, which is not a secret among the tribes outside the border. β
Lu Shan continued: "As for how I knew that the little grandfather would come, hehe, our aunt actually had a plan. As soon as you leave the city tonight, a secret message is voiced from there. Moreover, after there was an abnormal movement from the barracks, we have been out to inspect it for several days, but we are afraid that we will miss it. β
"Are you still in Datong City?" Zhang Yue was surprised for a moment, and then muttered hatefully: "What a cunning ......"
Lu Cheng was stunned and smiled bitterly.
Zhang Yue waved his hand in annoyance, "Okay, needless to say." Tell me, what are you here for?"
Lu Shan looked around and said with a smile: "Little Grandpa can let you brothers not have to trouble, our Enmeng has its own camp here, just go over together, we have hundreds of guards over there, and no one will suspect anything." As for the purpose of the little grandfather's visit, it should be aimed at the general of the Tartars. Well, don't move lightly yet, my aunt has his own arrangements. β
Speaking of this, seeing Zhang Yue's eyes widening, he hurriedly took out a letter from his arms and handed it over, and said with a smile: "Little grandfather, don't be impatient, and take a look at the letter left by my aunt for you first." β
Zhang Yue looked at him suspiciously, reached out to take it, and opened it to look at the moonlight. There are only a few simple sentences on it, which roughly shows that Lu Shan's two can believe it, and let him obey the arrangement, and he has other plans here.
Zhang Yue accepted the letter and groaned slightly, then reluctantly nodded and asked, "Okay, then what are your plans here?"
Lu Shan, Lu Cheng and Lu Cheng looked at each other and smiled, Lu Shan, stretched out his hand and pointed: "This is not the place to talk, please go to the camp first, little grandfather." As he spoke, lead the way.
Zhang Yue groaned, nodded, and gestured to the people next to him, but he asked people to secretly notify the other teams of people to lurk, and he followed up.
Although there is Su Mo's handwriting, and what Lu Shant and the others say can also match, Zhang Yue still keeps an eye on it. Don't put all your eggs in one basket, this is what Su Mo had taught him, and he thought it was true.
Regarding Zhang Yue's actions, Lu Cheng and Lu Cheng didn't seem to care. More than ten people turned in a certain direction all the way, but they deviated a lot from the direction that Zhang Yue and others had taken before.
Everyone was secretly lucky in their hearts, thanks to the two Lu Shan, otherwise, relying on Grandpa Zhang's stargazing skills, I really don't know where everyone will go. secretly glanced at Zhang Yue's face in front of him, but saw that Little Grandpa Zhang's face was a little dark, and his eyes glanced over one by one like knives. Everyone suddenly shrank their necks, and decided to forget all the events before tonight, and never remember a single star.
Enmeng's camp was not far away, and a few people had just walked through the tea effort, and a simple camp in front of them was impressive.
There were already people waiting at the camp gate, and there were a few strange light noises from afar, and Lu Cheng stepped forward here to reply a few times, and there was a torch lit up over there, shining here, and then the camp gate opened.
"Brother Shan, Brother Cheng. A seventeen or eighteen-year-old boy, with a strong and shrewd aura all over his body, stood by the door with a few people dressed in short costumes, greeting Lu Handle and the others, while looking at Zhang Yue and the others vigilantly.
Lu Zhi nodded and introduced to Zhang Yue: "This is the kid of Lao Zhao, the commander of our caravan guard, called Zhao Hu." β
Zhang Yue nodded, and Lu Zhi shouted softly to Zhao Hu again: "Stinky boy, I haven't come to see the British prince, Grandpa Zhang." The little grandfather is our uncle's sworn brother. β
That Zhao Hu sighed, and hurriedly stepped forward to salute, but his expression was stunned, but he was honest.
The elite who came out with a group of elites had their own Zhao Hu to take it to the side, and Zhang Yue followed Lu Handle and the two straight into the big tent.
As soon as he entered the tent, Zhang Yue was shocked. Looking at a middle-aged man sitting in the tent, he couldn't help but shout: "Uncle An?!"
Uncle An, Anxilu. The big housekeeper who followed Miss Cheng in the past, Zhang Yue had seen in Cheng's mansion. It's just that at that time, he thought that this was the housekeeper of the Cheng Mansion, but he didn't expect that this person would be here.
Uncle An got up and waved his hand at Lu Cheng and the two of them, and the two of them bowed and retreated. Only then did Uncle An smile and hugged Zhang Yue's fists, and said with a smile: "Servant, I've seen the little grandfather." Come, please take a seat first, let's sit down and talk slowly. β
Zhang Yue settled down, sat down on a piece of felt next to him, and couldn't help asking, "Uncle An, why are you here......?"
Uncle An smiled, stroked the beard on his lips, shook his head and smiled: "So that the little grandfather knows that the servant is not a servant of the Cheng Mansion, but a subordinate of my young lady." This time I came here because my uncle valued him and entrusted him with his responsibility. β
Zhang Yue was a little confused. is not a servant of the Cheng family, just a subordinate of Cheng Yuexian...... Well, that sounds a little weird. You must know that in this era, unless it is those who marry with someone after marriage, they should all belong to the Lord's family. Even if they get married, they will either belong to the husband's family, or they will still belong to the original owner's family. Like An Xilu, who only belongs to his daughter, but has nothing to do with his mother's family, he has never heard of it.
Uncle An didn't seem to explain it, this involved the entanglement between Cheng Minzheng and Cheng Li's brother, and it wasn't what he, a current person, should say much.
Zhang Yue obviously saw it, so he had to suppress this doubt. However, after meeting An Xilu, he was really completely relaxed.
"Okay, Uncle An, you can tell me now, what kind of charter is that brother in my family? I still want to surprise him, take the head of the Tartar general and help him take advantage of the chaos. He said with some grief.
The brothers were not righteous one by one, and only cared about the waves of joy that they were spreading outside, but they pressed him in the city, and they were almost suffocated to death. I thought that I would take advantage of this great opportunity to finally show my skills, but unexpectedly, before I could make a move, I was blocked back. Grandpa Zhang said that his mood was not beautiful.
An Xilu laughed when he heard this, nodded and said, "Don't worry, little grandfather, the servant is about to say that you know." What ...... this?"
The voice in the tent was muffled, and under the light of the lamp, there was an intermittent whisper.
Bamur had a rare good night's sleep, and in the past few days, he had been so troubled by Zamuhe that he had a nervous breakdown. But now, until the third pole of the day, there was surprisingly no one to harass him, which made him suddenly a little uncomfortable.
I got up and washed up briefly, and while eating breakfast, my eyes looked out of the door from time to time, for fear that the next moment a few more people would suddenly come running, either to hang him outside the door, or to borrow water from him to take poison.
"This is ...... No one came?" endured and endured, and finally muttered in his heart, and couldn't help but ask the soldiers who were waiting next to him.
The pro-soldiers couldn't hold back their laughter, and their own generals were really made out of the psychological shadow. People obviously don't come to make trouble, but he is uncomfortable.
At this moment, when he heard Bamur ask, he hurriedly replied: "Yes, general, no one is coming." β
Bamur paused in his hand, and hesitantly took another bite of the meat, but felt dull and tasteless. He simply threw the meat on the plate, got up and walked to the tent door and looked out.
The soldiers hurriedly stepped forward to clean up, and couldn't help but persuade: "General, wouldn't it be just right if those people didn't come......?
"You know what!" Bamur scolded, glaring at his own soldiers.
The pro-soldier shrunk his neck, not daring to say more, and his subordinates only quickened their movements, but they were not really afraid. In this era, the relationship between the lord and the soldiers was even closer than that between the father and the son. On the battle array, not only will they not hesitate to sacrifice their lives to block the sword for the general, but even once the general falls, the soldiers will never surrender, but often kill themselves and die for the master.
Therefore, in the absence of outsiders, the conversation between these personal soldiers and the general is very casual.
"These gang leaders are like making an appointment, and they all gather together without saying anything, and they make these tricks of seeking death and life all day long, and there must be something strange in them. It's just that I can't say anything when I face a crowd, and I want to see what tricks they want to play, so I let them mess around. But why did it suddenly stop moving? Could it be that he was just here to beg for mercy? It's really weird......"
He muttered, as if explaining and talking to himself. After pondering for a while, he suddenly said, "Is there anything unusual about them today?" Or is there anything different from usual?"
The soldiers were stunned, frowned and thought about it, and hesitated: "There is no change, it is still the same as a few days ago...... Oh, by the way, it was the caravans that said that some new goods came early in the morning, which attracted many people to buy them, which was quite lively. β
Bamur frowned and nodded, not saying anything more. But at a certain moment, suddenly's body stiffened, and Huo Ran turned around and exclaimed, "Caravan, what caravan?"
"It's the Enmeng, the one who came back when Tabu was there. The soldier said casually.
Bamur's eyes shrank slightly, thoughtful.
