Chapter 144: Riding Alone

β¦β¦
Three days later.
The maid Hongxiu took advantage of Wu Fan's absence, and muttered to Princess Xiyue: "Your Royal Highness Princess, you ...... Don't you think that Wu Shouzheng is not quite right these days? β
Princess Xiyue looked up, slightly stunned: "What's wrong?" That's good! β
Hongxiu shook his head hesitantly, and said in a low voice: "He seems to go out every night, and there is a smell of earth on his clothes...... Weird. β
Because of washing clothes for Wu Fan, it is not difficult for Hongxiu to show some things.
Princess Xiyue shook her head and sighed, "Don't be suspicious, it's late, go to sleep!" Suddenly thinking of something, Princess Xiyue raised her head and said, "Your nose is so smart?" β
Hongxiu rolled her eyes and didn't squeak.
Princess Xiyue only said that Wu Fan was exploring the way at night, after all, Wu Fan also said that Yan Guo was afraid that he would not let them go so lightly. What she didn't know was that Wu Fan was digging her husband's grave, at least, it was the nominal husband.
It was getting dark, Wu Fan changed into a night suit, took his tools and equipment, and secretly climbed over the wall of the mansion and walked along the woods outside.
In three days, Wu Fan had already figured out the sentry posts, patrol times, etc. in the tomb of Emperor Yan Guo, and even dug a tunnel to enter the tomb of Emperor Zhaowu, so he was about to go to the cemetery.
Carefully groping his way forward to reach the tomb of Emperor Zhaowu, Wu Fan took away the branches used as camouflage and crawled inside from the tunnel.
After entering the cemetery, Wu Fan put the hourglass beside him, used it to calculate the time, and began to hold a chisel in one hand and a hammer in the other, and chisel the hard stone wall with a bang.
Counting the time. When the patrol was about to come, Wu Fan stopped his movements, and then turned around to confirm that everyone was gone. Continue to excavate...... Every step seems cautious.
"Whoa!"
For a full hour, Wu Fan kicked hard. Break through the stone wall.
Using the fire fold to light the prepared torch, Wu Fan entered the gloomy tomb.
Then......
"That's too poor, isn't it? What about the golden coffin? What about the gold and silver utensils that were said to be good? β
Seeing the various stone carvings in the tomb, Wu Fan couldn't help but be disappointed.
Disappointed to disappointed, Wu still decided to search for a lot of corpses......
After rummaging for a long time, Wu Fan finally returned disappointed.
It's not that there are no valuable things in the tomb, it's just that those things are not gold and silver, and Wu Fan can't use them. It can't be taken away. He didn't understand the current rules of burial, gold and silver are minerals, rare minerals, and the annual mining amount is extremely low. Therefore, no matter how extravagant the emperor is, he will not really use gold and silver for burial, at most all kinds of stone carvings, silk utensils, or living people to accompany the burial.
The dead can't make money, and Wu Fan will be honest in the next three days. Quietly, I accompany Princess Xiyue to the tomb every day, standing beside me to hold an umbrella. I often tell some interesting stories to Princess Xiyue...... Anyway, it's a temporary cultivation and cultivation of feelings.
The seven-day grave guard has arrived.
Wu Fan went to the palace to meet the emperor of the Yan Kingdom, the emperor of the Great Virtue Prince, which meant to resign and ask for the passage of documents.
The Son of Great Virtue thought about it and decided to let him go.
Wu Fan was overjoyed, and when he returned to the Imperial Mausoleum of Yan Kingdom, he began to help Princess Xiyue pack her things and hurriedly went to Dasui, for fear that the Son of Heaven would regret it.
The Son of Great Virtue did not regret it, because he did not have time to pay attention to those messy things. He is preparing to accept a concubine, and Nalan Xin'er is a concubine. It was something he had dreamed of since the first time he saw Lan Xin'er.
And Lan Xin'er learned that Wu Fan was gone, it was already two hours later.
I thought about it for a long time. Lan Xin'er wrote a letter and quickly sent someone away.
β¦β¦
Rushing out of the boundary of Yijing City, Wu Fan breathed a long sigh of relief, turned his head to look at the north, and smiled.
It took two hours to get out of the boundary of Yijing City, Wu Fan was actually dissatisfied, the degree was too slow, and it would change later! It's just that Princess Xiyue Yang Shuxian can't ride a horse, and she has to carry a lot of messy things, so she can only take a car. Compared with the degree of fast horses, the slow carriage is really not a star and a half.
Feeling a little tired, Wu Fan got off the back of the purple horse, trotted a few steps, sat on the edge of the carriage and leaned against it, closing his eyes and concentrating.
And then.
"Ding-dong! The system has been updated! β
"Ding-dong! The host randomly touches the mission's 'Thousands of Miles to Ride Alone', and the mission content is comprehended by itself. Reward items: Hundreds of thousands of evil points. The famous Guan Yu has the right to adjust. Famous general Guan Yu set: Red rabbit horse, parrot robe, half-shoulder armor, green dragon glaive knife. β
"Ding-dong! The mission is open for no time limit. Completion: 0 percent. β
The announcement of the system suddenly exploded in Wu Fan's mind, making Wu Fan excited.
100,000 treacherous points?
Guan Erye, who is fully equipped and can adjust his age?
Okay!
Wu Fan almost didn't drool.
But soon, Wu Fan's expression became gloomy again.
There is no other reason.
The so-called "walking thousands of miles and riding alone" was actually Guan Erye's most shining triumph back then. Moreover, two sentences should be added in front, called "pass five levels, cut six generals, and ride alone for thousands of miles".
[Sure enough! The lord of the Yan Kingdom is not a thing, he must have repented! If he hadn't repented and hadn't sent someone to hunt me down or intercept me, how could I have touched this task? Wu Fan thought in his heart, got off the carriage, flew on the purple horse, and continued to think while being vigilant: [It's not necessarily a bad thing, not to mention the reward items given by the system, just talk about it...... How did Guan Erye become famous back then? Warm wine to cut Huaxiong? Kill Yan Liang and Zhu Wen ugly? I'm afraid that these two together are not as commendable as walking thousands of miles alone, right? That's a testament to his loyalty! Besides, if I go back like this, how will the mission of 'I am really Chen Shimei' be accomplished? You have to think of a rut, earn your reputation, and you have to get a beauty! Let me think about ......]
Wu Fan had a lot of flowers, and in the blink of an eye, all the benefits and disadvantages of the whole matter were calculated by him, not to mention, he had already thought about countermeasures.
γPass the five levels...... That's about five levels. Kill six generals...... Kill six general-level people. Thousands of miles to ride alone...... Walking a thousand miles? Damn! This must be an exaggeration, right? Otherwise, how many miles can be from here to the borders of the Empire! It's only 300 miles at most, so should I go back, come back, go back, and toss and play? γ
After thinking crookedly for a long time in his heart, Wu Fan became normal.
It's getting late, and it's close to Jixian County. Wu Fan took Princess Xiyue over to stay. In the end, it's not a man, it's a woman, and she can't sleep in the wilderness like Wu Fan. I can't stand it.
Wu Fan actually doesn't need to worry about how to go through the five levels and kill the six generals at all, because. There are already people waiting for him.
β¦β¦
None.
With the destruction of the Southern Liang Kingdom, the three-legged situation on the Central Plains has been broken. The Great Sui Empire is mighty, and the heart of unifying the Central Plains is obvious and impatient. A few days ago, Yang Yunfei, the general of the three gods of the Great Sui Empire, raised 100,000 troops and horses to the north, and Chen soldiers were in Julu County. Eyeing. Seeing that the war was imminent, Yan Guo also dispatched troops early, raising troops and horses from all over the country to prepare to resist the enemy.
Yan has five states, and the state is in the west, Liaodong is in the east, Yanzhou and Zhaozhou are in the north, and Youzhou is the center. The capital of the Yan Kingdom is in Youzhou, and it is very close to the border of the Great Sui Empire, less than 300 miles away. Therefore, the capital was chosen to be built here, in the words of Emperor Zhaowen of the Yan Kingdom. It's about leaving a sense of urgency for future generations, not relaxing...... carelessly, forcing future generations to expand their territory to the south. I'm afraid that Emperor Zhaowen didn't expect it. The Great Sui Empire was not vegetarian, and their strategy of expanding its territory to the south was never realized, but in the north, it expanded the land of Erzhou.
It is precisely because Yijing, the capital of the Yan Kingdom, is very close to the soldiers of the Great Sui Empire that he has been hoarding heavy troops and arranging defense lines, for fear of being exploited. That was an absolute refusal to give the Great Sui Empire any opportunity to take advantage of. Jixian County, as one of the important towns of Gongwei Yijing, naturally has a lot of soldiers and horses. There are three armies with more than 10,000 soldiers.
The general of the soldiers and horses stationed in Jixian County was Ni Lu, the general of Yanguo Xinzha Zhennan. There is something special about this person. The special thing is that he is a general who defected from the Great Sui Empire. He was able to go from a traitor to the position of General Zhennan of Yanguo. It's not easy. It can be summed up in roughly seven words - the light line, the dark line.
However, it was said that Ni Lu, the general of Zhennan, was training soldiers and horses, and suddenly heard that someone came to deliver a letter, and the person who came refused to say who sent the letterhead, so he couldn't help but be puzzled.
After finding a no-man's land and opening the letterhead, Ni Lu watched carefully, and his expression changed several times.
The letter readsβ
I have heard the name of the general for a long time, and the little woman admires it very much.
Now.
The Sui State sent an envoy to pick up Yang Shufei, but His Majesty seemed to be reluctant in his heart, so he had no choice but to welcome the prince.
Correct.
Those who are ministers must share the worries of the Lord.
Although the little woman did not dare to be a minister, she was married to a wife. As a human being/wife, you have to solve problems for your husband.
Dare to ask the general, what should a little girl do?
Xiao Lanxin.
There is nothing surprising about the content of the letter, but the name of the letter has attracted great attention from the Zhennan general Ni Lu, because the woman represented by this name is bound to be the favorite concubine of the future, which is almost doomed. Ni Lu was in Jixian County, not far from Yijing City, and he knew a little about the things in Yijing City, and he knew that Lan Xin'er seemed to be very murderous to the envoy of the Sui State. In order to be able to please Lan Xin'er, Ni Lu has already decided something.
Of course.
There is another thing that Ni Lu has made up his mind about, and that is...... Think too much.
Ni Lu didn't know that the proton sent by Yan Guo to Dao Sui was a fake prince, but in fact he was just the son of King Kang of Yan State. It is precisely because he doesn't know that Ni Lu thinks blindly. After all, the return of a prince who had just been a proton in a foreign country for fifteen years was a great potential threat in itself. Since ancient times, the Heavenly Family has been the most ruthless, and it is difficult to ensure that the Son of Heaven has the idea of directly letting the emperor die in a foreign country......
In a word.
Ni Lu had already decided that he was going to intercept and kill the envoy of the Sui State and Princess Xiyue, prompting the Sui State to kill the imperial proton to vent his anger. So as to complete the things that the future concubine explained.
Speaking of which, Lan Xin'er is really a person who is good at reading people, otherwise, how could she write such a letter? She had already expected Ni Lu to make a decision...... If the matter really succeeds, then the Son of Great Virtue will be furious, and it will be Ni Lu who will be killed, and it has nothing to do with her. Even if Ni Lu took out the letter, what could he do? I didn't say anything above, I just asked Ni Lu for advice on how to share the worries of the Lord!
