On the afternoon of the day when Gu Yao secretly took out the resources and placed them in the back mountain, Yuan Qi suddenly hurried to find her.

"Mr. Gu, I'm afraid it's not feasible to apply for relief grain, and when the snow on the mountain clears, I'll take someone to search for food again......

"What's going on?" Gu Yao asked him.

Yuan Qi's expression was a little bad, but now he trusted Gu Yao very much, so he didn't hide it from her:

"Ten miles outside Tongcheng, there are troops encamped."

"The imperial court really abandoned us, if it weren't for the heavy snow blocking the mountain, they might have attacked by now."

Yuan Qi's tone was calm, and he was not very excited and angry, as if he had expected this situation for a long time.

"How could it be ......?"

Yuwen Jue, who was traveling with him, was speechless, and his face was only pale.

Gu Yao reached out and touched Yu Wenjue's head, which was regarded as appeasement.

Then he said to Yuan Qi: "The Daduan Imperial Court has not given up on us. ”

"Mr. Gu......" Yuan Qi smiled bitterly.

Gu Yao took his hand, looked at the direction of the back mountain and said:

"The relief food of the imperial court has arrived, and it is in the back mountain."

"The army outside should be escorting relief food, so don't worry."

"What!?"

Yuan Qi and Yu Wenjue snorted in shock at the same time.

Then they looked at each other, and they all smiled.

......

The food matter was successfully resolved, and the whole village heard that it was Yuwen Jue's idea this time, and they were very grateful to him.

Yuwenjue thus gave birth to a great sense of achievement.

He said to Gu Yao with great emotion: "It turns out that everyone can eat enough...... I'm already so happy. ”

Food and clothing are guaranteed, and Yuwenjue is more happy in the village.

Seeing that he was a little happy here, Gu Yao reminded him that he had to go back to the palace a year ago.

Otherwise, if the ministers of the DPRK and China have not seen him for a long time, it is inevitable that people's hearts will be in turmoil.

"I'll go back tomorrow?"

Yu Wenjue couldn't accept it for a while.

Gu Yao dispelled his thoughts with a word: "Do you think that the army outside Tongcheng is really the one who sent relief food?" ”

Yu Wenjue's whole body froze.

"That's the Imperial Forest Army sent by the Empress Dowager Pei Xuan to suppress the refugees in Tongcheng."

"No, Uncle Huang, we have to stop them quickly!"

Yu Wenjue dropped this sentence and hurriedly went to say goodbye to Yuan Qi.

"You're leaving? Okay, why do you want to leave all of a sudden? ”

Hearing that he and Gu Yao were suddenly leaving, Yuan Qi tried his best to stay.

Yu Wenjue couldn't explain, so he could only say vaguely:

"If we stay here, you're in big trouble."

"Is it the killer of Chonglou? It's okay, Xiao Jue, there are so many of us who can deal with it together, and it is dangerous for you and your uncle to go out of the city alone! ”

Yuan Qi was persuading, and Xu Yanran, who had never shown up, suddenly appeared.

"Brother Yuan, you let him go."

As soon as she spoke, Yuwen Jue suddenly looked up.

"Yan'er, why are you !? here?"

He didn't expect Xu Yanran to appear here, he was happy at first, and then realized something in an instant, and turned his head to look at Yuan Qi nervously.

"She, she's the girl you have hidden in the Golden House?"

Before Yuan Qi could answer, Xu Yanran had already come and stood in front of the two.

She looked at Yu Wenjue's eyes, which were a little complicated.

Yu Wenjue was looked at by her so directly, and suddenly had a bad premonition in his heart.

"Yan'er..... Ahem, I haven't seen you for a long time, but you actually came to see Tongcheng. ”

He winked at Xu Yanran as he spoke, for fear that she would expose his true identity.

Xu Yanran didn't respond to him, but turned her head to look at Yuan Qi and repeated the previous sentence:

"Brother Yuan, you let him go."

"If he continues to stay, Tongcheng will be in great trouble."
