Yu Xianyao saw that the officers and soldiers stepped forward to carry the cabinet, and hurriedly said, "Light...... Ladies and gentlemen, tap ......"

Two guards jumped into the carriage and untied the ropes tied to the cabinet, and the two men tried for a while, but could not lift the cabinet.

One of the guards said, "Chief, this cabinet is so heavy that it can't be lifted at all, there must be something inside!" ”

As soon as he heard this, Yu Ke immediately pulled out his sword, pointed at Yu Xianyao and said, "Say! Is it a court offense inside! ”

"It's not...... Not really! Yu Xianyao looked innocent.

Yu Ke ordered: "You guys, go and open the cabinet!" ”

"Whoa!"

However, the guards tried for a long time and found that although the cabinet was not locked, it could not be opened anyway.

"Boss, this cabinet can't be opened!"

Yu Ke lifted the saber, put the blade close to Yu Xianyao, and asked viciously, "What's going on?" What the hell is inside?! Say it! Otherwise, the Fa-rectification will be done on the spot! ”

Yu Xianyao was flustered, and said with a crying voice: "Official! I say! I say! The villain's cabinet is full of ...... It's all ......."

"What is it?!"

"Hey! I'll just open it! Yu Xianyao said, walked to the side of the cabinet, groped under the cabinet, and pulled out a wedge, but he didn't expect that as soon as the wedge was pulled out, the cabinet that couldn't be opened just now was easily opened.

The guards gathered around, and the moment the cabinet was opened, everyone was stunned, only to see that there were more than a dozen large bamboo baskets stacked in the cabinet, and the bamboo baskets were densely filled with copper coins, each bamboo basket had tens of thousands, and all the copper coins added up to hundreds of thousands, for the guards who could only earn two hundred copper coins a month, this number was really amazing.

Yu Ke asked, "What's the matter with so much money?!" ”

Yu Xianyao confessed: "We are a caravan that goes out to do business. ”

"Caravans? The caravan has been registered in the imperial court, have you done the filing?! ”

"Hey! The official doesn't know, in recent years, the king has frequently fought wars, taxes and fees have surged, and after filing, he has to pay a large amount of taxes and fees, so he won't make money! So...... So go out this time...... We haven't filed a record, and I hope that all the officials will take pity on our small businessmen and be accommodating......"

"Hmph, although you don't have my responsibility for this, but in the end it's illegal, if you want to be accommodating, you can do it, hehe, you have to mean it."

"Understood, understood."

So Yu Xianyao turned to the two guys and said, "You two, go, carry a basket out." ”

The two men climbed into the carriage, drew out a pole, and with great difficulty lifted a basket and staggered it to the ground. Then, Yu Xianyao took out a gold dollar from his arms and quietly stuffed it to Yu Ke, "Official, the money in the basket will be distributed to the brothers." ”

Although Yu Xianyao's voice was not loud, as soon as he finished speaking, all the guards had their eyes lit up, and they all stared at the basket of copper coins on the ground.

"Hehe, count you as acquaintances, let go!" Yu Ke walked up to his subordinates, nodded his head, and then said softly, "Before the patrol team comes, hurry up and divide it." ”

As soon as the words fell, the guards no longer had the heart to inspect the convoy, and everyone gathered around the basket of coins, for fear that they would have less money.

Yu Ke glanced at Yu Xianyao and motioned for them to leave quickly.

So, everyone quickly passed through the city gate, left Gusu City and disappeared into the dark night.

The convoy traveled south for an hour, and the wagons were parked in an open space and sat down around the campfire. Yu Xianyao smiled: "Hehe, thanks to Miss Shuangdi's good idea, we can pass the test smoothly!" ”

He Yu also approvingly: "Yes, yes, when my sister first talked about the cabinet, I thought I was going to let us hide inside, haha, in that case, even if we are not discovered, we will be suffocated!" ”

"Miss Frost, this method is much better than giving money directly! When those guards heard that they wanted to share the money, how could they bother to check it? Ha ha! ”

Shuang Di looked a little embarrassed, and said with a smile: "Actually, I think that the money in the cabinet has been paid, if you don't get it back, it's a pity......"

Everyone burst out laughing.

Zhang Xun hugged Shuang Tu tightly, and whispered close to his ear: "Don't worry, let's buy better ones in the future!" ”

"Hmm." Frost nodded vigorously.

Yu Xianyao picked up the bonfire and said, "Let's rest here today, it's safe here, but as soon as it dawns tomorrow, we will have to separate." The goal of the team is too big, if you continue to follow the four, it is neither safe nor convenient, and I hope that the four will not blame it. ”

Zhang Xun saluted and said, "Elder Yu has already helped a lot!" Thank you so much! But there is one more thing, I must ask Yu Lao. ”

"General, please speak."

"Heyu's grandparents are now in Yiyang Village for the elderly, I am worried that the king will not catch anyone, so he will make them angry, and I hope that Yu Lao will go to Yiyang Village tomorrow and take them to a safe place."

He Yu and Shuang Di also saluted deeply: "Please Yu is old!" ”

"General, and Yu Gongzi, don't be polite, don't be polite! Please rest assured, we will go to Yiyang Village at dawn and take the second elder to a safe place. ”

Yu Xianyao said, took down a small box from the carriage behind him, and then handed the box to Zhang Xun, "General, there are fifty taels of gold in this box, enough for you to use for a while, if you still need it, you can ask someone to tell me, and I will find a way." ”

Zhang Xun took the box and saluted Yu Xianyao again: "Thank you Yu Lao!" ”

"Let's all hurry up and rest for a while, we have to hurry tomorrow, I'll arrange for the guys, put up the sentry."

"It's hard work!" Zhang Xun saluted again.

For a long time, Heyu and Su Ming fell asleep, but Zhang Xun could not sleep, he raised his head, looked at the full moon in the sky, and recalled the experience of this whole day in his mind. It's really unexpected, but in just one day, power, status, and even a happy married life are like a broken bubble, which dissipates in an instant, and the fall from the peak to the trough may be just an ordinary moment of ups and downs in life.

He remembered what Wu Zixu had said to him before, what to assist the world and save Wu Guo, he wanted to laugh a little, for a while, he really regarded himself as a great person who saved Wu Guo. But how long has it been, and he, the person who saved the country of Wu, has turned out to be a suspect who fled in the wilderness, and what is even more tragic is that he doesn't even know the reason for escaping.

Looking at the frost snuggled by his side, he felt a little relieved, at least he still had sincere love, but at this moment, a black cloud covered the bright moonlight, the earth was pitch black, and a terrible idea also emerged in this boundless shadow, what if today he didn't help Yu Suming's family escape, but gave up the marriage contract and assisted the Praetorian Guards to capture the family? Is it possible to maintain status and power, and is it not necessary to sleep in the open and flee everywhere?

He was shocked by this vicious thought and broke out in a cold sweat, closed his eyes fiercely, wrinkled his brows vigorously, and tried to empty his thoughts, trying to restore the color of the essence of his soul.

No, he wouldn't do that, absolutely not! If he was that kind of person, he would not have fought everything to negotiate with King Wu in the first place, and he would not have always insisted on his true love with Shuang Di knowing that Juan Suming was using him, let alone making stupid and naïve choices again and again.

Thinking of this, his frowning brows slowly relaxed, he opened his eyes, the black clouds had drifted away, and the bright moonlight sprinkled on the earth again, in this bright world, he saw his own unchanging innocence heart.

Could it be that what Wu Zixu said about the precious heart he has refers to this pure heart?

If that's the case, Wu Zixu is very wrong, this pure heart seems to have forced him to a dead end. But this is who he really is, what he is that he is difficult to change, and what he wants to stick to forever.

Perhaps, it really has to wait for him to experience the world's events until his beard is gray, and all this can have an answer.

"Brother Xiao Xun." The sound of frost was like a light breeze, soothing Zhang Xun's messy heart.

Zhang Xun hugged Shuangdi, kissed her lightly on the forehead, and asked, "Is it cold?" ”

Shuang Di shook her head and pressed her body tightly against Zhang Xun's chest, "As long as I can be by my brother's side, I won't feel cold." ”

Zhang Xun lowered his head and looked at the frost in the firelight, her smile was so sweet and lovely, which made Zhang Xun feel heartfelt happiness, unconsciously, his eyes were a little moist, he put his forehead against the frost's hair, and said softly: "Xiaoshuang, I'm sorry, I couldn't give you a happy wedding, it happened too suddenly, I didn't have time to react." ”

"Brother Xiaoxun, don't blame yourself, I don't care about the wedding, I only care about you, I just want to be with you, as long as the two of you are safe, nothing else matters."

"Little Frost...... I don't know what happened to the imperial court, and I don't know when this turmoil will subside, maybe ...... Maybe you're going to have to suffer with me in the future. ”

"Brother...... Don't say that, as long as I can be with you, I don't care what I suffer, because ......" in the flickering firelight, Frost's face turned crimson, "because I am already your wife." ”

Zhang Xun felt extremely happy, "I...... We don't have a candle yet...... I've wronged you so much......"

"It's okay, I'm already married to you......"

"Xiaoshuang, I love you."

"I love you too, husband......"

The next day, as soon as the sky was slightly bright, Zhang Xun suddenly heard the sound of horses' hooves in the distance, and he immediately stood up and looked in the direction of the horse's hooves.

I saw a person galloping on a fast horse, Zhang Xun was just about to pull out the blazing sword, Yu Xianyao hurriedly said: "General, don't panic, that's my nephew - Yu Ke." ”

Yu Ke came to everyone, turned over and dismounted and saluted Zhang Xun: "General, I was entrusted by Lord Gonghui to report the news. ”

Zhang Xun also hurriedly replied: "Thanks to the help of my brothers!" Thank you very much! ”

"There were a lot of people last night, but fortunately, there was no danger, and the reason for the incident was already told to me, but I was afraid of extraneous branches, so I didn't dare to say anything at that time, so I could only wait until dawn to change shifts, and then I went out of the city to catch up with you."

"What is the reason?"

So, Yu Ke informed everyone of the reason for the incident, and after listening to it, Zhang Xun sighed and said: "Hey, I'm afraid this is the beauty plan, bitter meat plan and separation plan of the Yue people!" ”

Yu Suming asked anxiously, "What about Wu Xiangguo?" How is he now? ”

Yu Ke replied: "Wu Xiangguo is now imprisoned in the prison and is awaiting further investigation. ”

Su Ming's mood suddenly collapsed, and he cursed viciously: "Husband! I should have killed you with my own hands! ”

Yu Ke soothed: "Lord County Lieutenant, Wu Xiangguo's investigation is in charge of Cai Guangren, Cai Guangren is a decent and upright person, I believe he will definitely return Wu Xiangguo's innocence." ”

"It's useless, this is obviously a conspiracy of the Yue people, only the king in the court can't see it clearly, since this matter is generally in charge of Bo Ya, then he will definitely do everything possible to kill Wu Xiangguo, and I'm afraid that our people will also be hunted down endlessly."

Zhang Xun knew in his heart that what Yan Suming said was true, but he had already thought it through, since this was the path he chose, then even if this road was destined to die, he would continue to walk. Zhang Xun said to everyone: "The matter has come to this, we can only hide first, and if there is a turn for a while in the future, we will find a way to rescue Wu Xiangguo." ”

Yu Ke nodded and said: "The general is right, oh, by the way, Lord Gonghui also instructed that if there is a wanted notice in the nearby village within two days, it means that the situation has deteriorated further, and he asked you to leave Wu Country immediately with your family and go to this place." ”

Yu Ke took out a leather cloth from his arms and handed it to Zhang Xun.

Zhang Xun took a look, only to see a simple map drawn on the leather cloth, on which a location was marked, which was located at the junction of the three kingdoms of Wu, Yue and Chu, and was called Yuenu Mountain.

"Yue Nu Mountain?" Zhang Xun had never heard of this place.

Yan Suming was originally not interested in that map at all, but when he heard the three words of Yue Nu Mountain, his expression changed suddenly, and he hurriedly leaned over and looked at the marks on the map, yes, Yue Nu Mountain was there.

Yu Ke added: "Lord Gonghui said that you should go to Yuenu Mountain to find a person named Chen Yin, he is an old friend of Lord Gonghui, as long as you explain your intentions, he will definitely do everything to help you." ”

"But with only such a sketch, where can I go to find this Yue Nu Mountain?"

"Lord Gonghui said, Lord County Lieutenant will take everyone to find Yuenu Mountain."

As soon as they heard this, everyone looked at Su Ming suspiciously, and Zhang Xun asked, "Father-in-law, have you ever been to this Yuenu Mountain?" ”

Yu Suming nodded, but did not speak.

"What about this Chen Yin? Did You Know? ”

"I don't know." Yu Suming shook his head and said.

"It doesn't matter if you don't know people, just know the road, let's go."

Juan Suming hesitated for a while, as if he had something to say, but after thinking for a moment, he just whispered: "Okay, let's go, if there is any change in the city, I hope to inform me as soon as possible." ”

"Ladies and gentlemen, don't worry! Yu Ke will definitely live up to his mission! ”

Subsequently, the group parted ways here, Yu Xianyao led people to the direction of Yiyang Village, and Zhang Xun took his family to the southwest to ride a horse.
