Chapter 67: The Burning of the Barracks
In the end, Gu Qingcheng and Mu Yun discussed and said, "I will release the carrier pigeons when the generals come to Fuzhong again, and you will be ready to act after receiving the letter brought by the pigeons." Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info"
"Okay." Mu Yun responded, and he said to Gu Qingcheng, "Everything has Princess Lao." ”
It was rare for her to see Mu Yun have such respect for people, she had always been at odds with him, and Mu Yun's approach was a little surprising to her. Fortunately, earlier she domesticated a few carrier pigeons, which she didn't expect to come in handy at this time.
On the way back to the palace, Du Juan couldn't help but complain: "Princess, why do you take the initiative to take such a dangerous matter, you should still listen to my advice and leave here earlier." ”
Gu Qingcheng had a faint smile on her face, she turned her face to Du Juan and said patiently: "Du Juan, I know your intentions, but after all, I have the title of princess, those people don't dare to do anything to me, but Du Juan, you have to pay attention to it, if things are not right, leave the palace quickly." ”
Having said this, Du Juan's throat was a little choked, she looked at Gu Tingcheng's calm and light face, in her eyes before, Gu Tingcheng was just a weak woman, and now Gu Tingcheng's bold approach made Du Juan both admire and worry, she knew that for the regent, Gu Tingcheng was very important.
Gu Tingcheng fell silent after saying these few words, her eyes hid a trace of complicated eyes, that was a trace of complicated feelings, feelings for Shen Tianao, for this husband, she did not pour more love into him, maybe more just sympathy, it is not difficult to imagine what kind of crazy actions that fool will have when she leaves him.
As soon as she returned to the palace, before she reached the bedroom, she saw a familiar figure standing outside the door, Shen Tianao walked towards her quickly, and said with a smirk: "Lady, I have been waiting for you for a long time." ”
Gu Qingcheng was shocked, she looked at her dressed as a maid, and couldn't help but sigh Fortunately, Shen Tianao was a fool, otherwise she could see at a glance that something was wrong with her, and maybe she would have to interrogate.
He took her hand and walked to the inner room: "Lady, don't drive me away tonight, okay, I miss my wife." ”
Gu Qingcheng made a color to the cuckoo and motioned for her to go down first, and the cuckoo saluted her, then closed the door and left slowly.
Before she had time to change her clothes, Shen Tianao hugged her in his arms, rubbing his head against her, with a very nostalgic look. She touched his hair and comforted: "What's the matter, someone in the house is bullying you again?" ”
Shen Tianao paused, in fact, how could anyone in the mansion dare to bully him, except for a few attendants who knew that he was not crazy, the other maids and servants could avoid him as much as possible, lest they would be entangled by him and it would be difficult to get rid of it, the only thing that could bully him and make him upset was Gu Qingcheng, he raised his head and saw a faint smile on the corner of her mouth, he had to admit Gu Qingcheng's beauty, she had the appearance of a celestial man, and that beautiful face would not lose to his former concubines.
He thought that it was okay that Gu Qingcheng chose to return to the palace, otherwise he would arrest her back, since she married him, she was his princess, and she should stay by his side for the rest of her life.
"Nope." Shen Tianao replied coquettishly, "I just miss the lady." ”
Gu Tingcheng just wanted to ask him about the generals in his study, but before she moved her lips, she remembered that he was a fool, if she asked him about these things, not to mention that Shen Tianao couldn't figure out these things, in case she told him all the things she asked him, she would get into trouble.
Shen Tianao saw her expression clearly, he probably guessed what she wanted to ask, but he was still a fool before he broke it, of course he had to pretend that he didn't know anything.
Soon it was the day when the generals came to the mansion, Gu Qingcheng found the right time and secretly released a carrier pigeon, she thought she was doing it seamlessly, but she had already been seen by the attendants who were secretly watching.
The attendants hurriedly came to the study and whispered in Shen Tianao's ear: "Lord, the princess has just released a carrier pigeon. ”
"Get ready for action." Shen Tianao said this without any expression, and the smile on the corner of his mouth was very cold.
"Yes, lord." The attendants replied energetically, as if they had been waiting for this moment for a long time.
At this time, on the other side, Mu Yun led a group of people to put on armor and enter the barracks through the soldiers who had already been bought, and they avoided the patrolling soldiers and walked along a path to the back of the barracks, which was where he inquired about hoarding grain and grass.
Maybe it's because during the day, there aren't many guards around the grain and grass, as soon as Mu Yun raised his hand, everyone immediately took action, and the cat walked over to attack the guards, and saw that all the guards fell to the ground, and then he ordered everyone: "Prepare to light a fire." ”
They took out the fire folds and hay that they had prepared from their bodies, spread the hay outside the granary, lit it with torches, and everything went smoothly according to the original plan.
Seeing the flames coming out of the lit granary, Mu Yun couldn't help but feel good, and he said happily: "Everyone is ready to withdraw, be careful not to reveal your identity." ”
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a column of footsteps behind him, and it seemed that many people were walking towards this side, Mu Yun suddenly felt bad, and he shouted at everyone: "Hurry up." ”
Halfway through the words, the soldiers behind came up and surrounded them, and a person who looked like a general laughed: "You are Mu Yun, do you think you can get out of the way?" ”
Mu Yun stood in place as if he were dead, he straightened his spine and said: "The old man is not a person who is greedy for life and afraid of death, but I have completed the task, even if it is death, what does it matter, my cheap life that should have died a long time ago should be repaid to the regent." ”
The general looked at him sneeringly and said, "Do you think you really burned grain and grass?" ”
Mu Yun twisted his eyebrows and asked heavily, "What do you mean by this?" ”
The general lifted the roof of the granary with his sword, pointed to it and said, "You have to see if there is any grain and grass in here." ”
Mu Yun looked in the direction of the granary, and what they lit was only the covering on the surface, and there was not a single grain in it, but some useless forage and stones. In an instant his face turned pale, his eyes were as dead as ashes, and he yelled at the granary: "No, how can this be, everything is expected, how did you know that we were going to burn the granary?" ”
The general raised his hand and motioned for the archers to aim at them, and he said with a victorious attitude: "You can go to the underworld and guess this matter slowly, haha, but none of you want to escape today." ”
The situation became very urgent, Mu Yun and the group were like being caught in an urn, and that feeling of powerlessness came again, he clenched his fists tightly, and his eyes were full of anger.
"Break out." He commanded the people.
