Chapter Twenty-Three: To Uzar
Whether King Qi will agree to help her, Yu Fei doesn't know, but if he can accompany his convoy back to Beijing, if Wang Sima knows in advance, he will definitely be ready to pick up the car on the way to Beijing, and pick up his daughter by the way.
It's just that Wang Yao can't show up directly at that time, after all, a daughter who has not been out of the cabinet has been out for more than a month, and the gossip outside is enough for her to drink a pot.
Wang Yao listened to her, and she felt a little relieved.
Yu Fei wanted to go to Bao Neipo, and Wang Yao also wanted to go there together. But he was going back to Beijing in a few days, so Yu Fei left Wang Yao to spend more time with Yu Xuan in the camp.
Some distance from Jiashan City, Bao Neipo is a border town on the border with Uzar, and it takes half a day to ride back and forth.
Since coming to Northern Xinjiang, she has not dared to come to this place. The charred earth and corpses everywhere in the dream slowly overlapped with the land in front of me. The difference is that there is no trace of a battle here. New weeds sprouted, green and covered all the darkness and blood that had been before.
Yu Fei didn't know what he wanted to do when he came here, so he grabbed a handful of banknotes he bought on the street when he came over, and threw them into the air, pure white, and fell all over the ground. She stood in it, and her heart was cold and terrible.
"Daddy......" she snorted, but her voice seemed to be blocked, and she couldn't make a sound. What can be said?
Avenge? Now I don't even know who the enemy is. Carry forward the Yu family? Now the highest position is just a four-grade junior general of my brother. And if you want to enter the camp, you have to do it in the name of your military dependents.
It's funny to think about it, she really doesn't have anything to say to her father under the Nine Springs.
She did laugh, her voice from a low, choked laugh, to a louder laugh, and tears of laughter covered her eyes, and she couldn't see the world as it was.
King Qi came here at this time, he was going to cross the border to Uzar, but when he passed by here, he saw Yu Fei standing in the middle of the white paper money all around him, laughing and crying.
He didn't walk over and stood quietly behind her for a moment. Then he planned to change the route and cross the border, and then beckoned his subordinates to tell Yu Fei that if she wanted, he could take her with him when she went to Uzar.
Yu Fei didn't want to, she also wanted to know who the person who conspired with Uzar to kill her father was. quickly adjusted his mood, and only came over to meet King Qi with a pair of red eyes.
King Qi was dressed as a merchant, and he was followed by a caravan, about a dozen people. King Qi glanced at his crimson eyes and rode forward. Only one sentence came along the wind: what you want, go for it yourself. Grief and tears are things that don't serve any purpose.
I'm fighting for it! Take advantage of your east wind to fight better. Yu Fei thought to herself.
Out of the Baonei slope, there is the vast and sparsely populated Uzar. The environment here is similar to that of northern Xinjiang, and it is basically desert.
The crowd walked about ten miles before they saw scattered turf or shriveled tree trunks. In the distance, a few scattered households can be seen with the naked eye.
One of the attendants went to a household to inquire about the situation, and only said that his caravan wanted to go to the capital of Uzar to sell goods, but because it was the first time he came, he didn't know the way. After walking for a long time, I was also thirsty, and I wanted to beg for water.
There was a woman and three children living in the house, and when the woman heard them say this, she hesitated for a while, but let them in. There were too many people, and only King Qi and Yu Fei and two or three attendants entered.
The woman poured some water for each of them, looked at several tall and solemn men, and finally asked Yu Fei, the only woman in the team, "What are you going to sell?" ”
Yu Fei smiled back and said, "We just want to exchange some satin fabric for some leather and wool." ”
"Oh......" the woman smiled, and then beckoned, "You drink, there is little water here, and the water is not as clean and delicious as your Central Plains, but it is still possible to quench your thirst." ”
Yu Fei glanced at the water in the bowl, it was indeed a little turbid, and there was a layer of fine sand precipitated under the water layer. She touched the rim of the bowl slightly with her lips, then put it down. He said to the woman, "Listen to the tone of your aunt, have you ever been to my court?" ”
The woman touched the corner of her clothes, smiled embarrassedly, and said, "When I was young, I married my man and heard that the Great Zhou Dynasty was rich and prosperous, so I went there once. Now that I have children, it's hard to move around. ”
"What about your husband?" Yu Fei asked.
"My man has gone to the capital. He usually collects some firewood or some prey, and then takes it to the capital to sell it to make a living. The woman replied.
"Then this place must not be far from the capital, right?" Yu Fei said.
"It's not far, it's only three or four hours on foot, and I see that you have horses, so it must be much faster. I guess it's only two hours! The woman replied.
"Thank you, auntie, we're going to hurry after a while, this is a little careful, please take it." As he spoke, Yu Fei took out a piece of broken silver and put it on the table, and then everyone got up and said goodbye.
Walking on the road, Yu Fei looked at King Qi and said, "Lord Wang, what are you doing here in Magyar?" ”
"See someone." King Qi said and his gaze fell on her, "It has something to do with you." ”
What does it have to do with me? Yu Fei was surprised.
"Back then, General Yu Lao met a group of Uzars in Bao Neipo, and the leader of this group of Uzars was called Gongluo. He is a general under the banner of the second prince of Uzar. ”
"What we are going to see today is the second prince Chengta." After King Qi finished speaking, he turned his head and stopped looking at her.
If Yuan Shao and the people behind the Great Zhou are the ones who indirectly killed her father, then this Chengta and Gongluo are the direct murderers.
Although she came with her, she also wanted to find out some news, but she didn't expect that what King Qi wanted to see directly was Chengta. The fingers clenched one by one, making a creaking sound, and there was a killing intent in the depths of his heart screaming to rush out.
King Qi didn't look at her, but seemed to understand her inner emotions. A faint voice came, "If you don't plan to find out the person behind Yuan Shao, you will die in Uzar like this, I will not stop you from taking revenge." ”
Yu Fei was startled, and looked at King Qi with wide eyes, "You know? ”
"Who is the person behind Yuan Shao?!" Yu Fei stared at him deadly, his hand already on the saber at his waist.
King Qi's gaze shifted from her hand on the saber to her face, his expression was unwavering, and he kept looking at her lightly, but he didn't mean to continue talking.
"Tell me! Who is the person behind Yuan Shao? Yu Fei continued to ask, and there was a look of not giving up until he reached his goal. You can make conditions, and I can promise you! ”
"When I see Chengta, I can give you a chance to ask him." King Qi said lightly, he didn't tell Yu Fei directly. Yu Fei couldn't figure out how much he knew.
With her hand removed from her saber, Yu Fei hung her head, not letting anyone see her red eyes and the flames burning in the depths of her eyes.
