Chapter 227: Beauty
Mu Zhengyi had already asked the Gu family guards, so he naturally knew that the woman in front of him was Miss Gu Jiu, the granddaughter of Gu Zhengze, a scholar of Duanming Palace, a famous beauty in Beijing.
Of course, Mu Zhengyi knew that because of his special situation, his little sister did not have many friends, and this Miss Gu Jiu could definitely be regarded as one. He even felt fortunate because of this, fortunately he decided to meddle with his business when he was exploring the way, otherwise if something really happened to Miss Gu Jiajiu, the little sister would inevitably be sad and sad.
However, saving people is just a convenient move, and of course Mu Zhengyi doesn't have any idea of repaying the favor, so when Gu Yilan saluted and thanked him, Mu Zhengyi gave a slight step to the side, and he didn't have any idea of announcing his name.
Moreover, Mu Zhengyi did not repel the bandits by himself, this was the result of his cooperation with Zheng Jin's guard group, so Mu Zhengyi felt that if he thanked him, Gu Yilan thanked him as well as Xie Yi Wang Zheng Jin.
This group of bandits was overwhelming, and he couldn't protect the Gu family's convoy on his own.
Therefore, when Gu Yilan thanked her, Mu Zhengyi just waved her hand politely and said a few polite words such as "the effort of raising your hands is not enough to worry about your teeth".
At this time, one of King Yi's guards came over and asked Mu Zhengyi, "General Xiaomu, is there any gold sore medicine?" There were a lot of wounded, and I didn't have enough on me. ”
"There is still one bottle left," Mu Zhengyi replied, "This time I am in a hurry, so when I pack my luggage, I try to travel as light as possible, and I don't bring much wound medicine."
"Oh." The guard didn't care much: "Then wait for the sons and them to come over, the commander still has a lot of wound medicine there."
"Don't worry," Mu Zhengyi shook his head, pointing to the corpses stacked around him and a string of prisoners who were tied up and thrown under the tree: "How to deal with the aftermath here also has to ask Gongzi for instructions." Let's see if it will be handed over to the official office of Chunzhou or to Wangzhou. There can be nearly 100 bandits blocking the road here, and the bandits' den should not be far away, if we do not take the opportunity to exterminate it, I am afraid that there will be a great disaster in the future. ”
"General Mu is right," the guard nodded.
Then Mu Zhengyi nodded at Gu Yilan, which was regarded as a greeting, and then turned around and turned to the side of the road with the guard, and looked up at Tiantong Mountain together.
Of course, Gu Yilan would not interject at will about these things, in fact, she didn't even have much idea what Mu Zhengyi and the guards were discussing, she was now looking at Mu Zhengyi intently, full of doubts.
Solemn? General Mu? These people all have Beijing accents, and they should be from Beijing. As far as she knows, in Beijing, and even in the entire Great Zhou, only the men of the Anguo Mansion can be made into General Mu.
And the little General Mu who is currently in Beijing is only the eldest brother of Xiao Hongsheng, Mu Zhengyi, the eldest son of the Mu family.
But...... Why is Mu Zhengyi here? Everyone in Beijing knows that the eldest prince of the Mu family returned to Beijing to marry a blind date, is it possible that the eldest prince of Mu is traveling for a blind date? But it's not like that......
Who's blind date is lightly traveled, and a large group of guards are followed?
Thinking of this, Gu Yilan couldn't help but be a little worried, worried about whether there was something wrong with the Mu family, and whether the Mu family's little red dress was okay.
But before Gu Yilan could ask, in the distance, the sound of horses' hooves sounded, and a group of guards escorted a carriage approaching quickly, and the carriage rumbled, and soon stopped near the Gu family's convoy.
Gu Yilan looked back, but saw the carriage door open, and another acquaintance came out.
The sixth prince Zheng Jin! How could he be here.
Seeing Zheng Jin, Gu Yilan was a little stunned on the one hand, and even more puzzled on the other. As Mu Hongsheng's friend, Gu Yilan certainly knew that after General Xiao Mu returned to Beijing, he was on an errand in Xiaojinwei and was assigned to King Yi's mansion.
As the granddaughter of a scholar of Duanming Palace, although no one specifically told Gu Yilan about the affairs of the court, King Yi and King Xin were openly sent by the emperor to go out of Beijing to investigate the case, and everyone in Beijing knew that of course she also got the news.
However, on the second day after the news came out, Gu Yilan left Beijing, so although she knew that King Yi would go to Zhending Mansion, she didn't know when he set off, and she didn't know that King Yi actually took Mu Zhengyi with him on this trip.
Why did you take General Xiao Mu with you?!Gu Yilan couldn't help but wonder even more. According to her understanding, General Xiao Mu was just hanging idle in Xiaojinwei to receive a salary, he was a serious border general, and the main purpose of returning to Beijing was to marry a blind date.
And King Yi went to Zhending Mansion to investigate the case, why didn't it take two or three months to go back and forth, why did he take General Xiao Mu with him? And why is the old lady of the Anguo Mansion willing to let General Xiao Mu come out with her?
However, although she had doubts in her heart, Gu Yilan still saluted Zheng Jin, the king of Yi, in a proper manner.
Zheng Jin also raised her eyebrows in surprise when she saw Gu Yilan, who had a cloak and a bloodstained face on her clothes.
"Miss Gu Jiu," Zheng Jin got out of the car, walked around the corpse on the ground, and walked to Gu Yilan: "Why are you here."
"Back to the prince's words." Gu Yilan lowered her head and replied respectfully: "My father is the county commander in Ningling County, and the little daughter has lived in Beijing for a long time, and she has not seen her parents for three years, so she misses her very much, so her grandmother arranged for the little girl to go to Ningling to accompany her parents for the New Year." But he didn't expect to encounter a mountain bandit robbery here, but fortunately, General Xiao Mu risked his life to save him, and the little girl escaped with her life. ”
"I see," Zheng Jin nodded: "It's just a coincidence."
Zheng Jin's gaze swept over the messy battlefield, and naturally looked at the carriage destroyed by the Gu family, he beckoned a guard, asked a few questions, and called a surviving Gu family guard to ask.
It didn't take long for Zheng Jin to make clear what happened here, and at this time, Mu Zhengyi, who was looking at the terrain, had already returned, he took Ma An and stood quietly aside, and did not take the initiative to speak.
However, Mu Zhengyi didn't take the initiative to speak, and Zheng Jin would never let him stay quiet. After this Yi Wang Ye asked everything clearly, he bypassed his guard commander and looked directly at Mu Zhengyi with a smile: "What does General Mu think about this matter?"
Mu Zhengyi looked at his nose and nose, his nose looked at his heart, and he answered with a straight look, still the previous words: "There can be nearly 100 bandits blocking the road here, and the bandit den should not be far from here, if you don't take the opportunity to exterminate it, I'm afraid there will be a big disaster in the future."
Zheng Jin listened to Mu Zhengyi's words, smiled and nodded slightly: "The bandits are harming the people of Li, although this king is passing by by accident, he can't let it go." Does General Xiao Mu have any suggestions for the suppression of bandits? ”
"It's better to leave it to the Wangzhou or Chunzhou officials to deal with," Mu Zhengyi replied: "The bandits' nest is hidden in Tiantong Mountain, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and I am afraid that we guards alone will not be able to completely wipe it out."
