Chapter 097: Return to Beijing

It is rare for things in the capital to reach the border passes, not to mention that Jiang Beiyu and his party are hiding in Tibet, although they have established contact with the capital, but because they are afraid of being discovered and intercepted, the letters can only be transmitted once a month or even two months.

Last month, Dongrong attacked, but the scope was not large, but hundreds of people were sent to carry out a sneak attack at night, and the two sides did not fight on a large scale at all, and the other side retreated.

This is not the same as the military information that Jiang Beiyu received at the beginning.

Such speculation may be that someone in the court colluded with Dongrong to plan this trap, lure him out of the city, intercept him halfway, and then frame Dongrong.

They had been lurking for several months, and had already killed the traitors in the night attack on Dongrong, but they were not in a hurry to return to Beijing, because they did not know if there were any other traitors lurking in the army.

The army can't be without a handsome for a day, presumably the newly sealed general of the imperial court will come soon, but I don't know who will replace the Marquis of Wenchang?

More than a dozen people sat on the grass around the fire, and there were two rabbits on the fire, which were bubbling with oil, and the aroma came to the face, and someone's stomach growled twice, and sighed: "Lao Tzu wants to eat the roast chicken of Jiuwei Zhai." ”

Everyone sitting in the audience swallowed their saliva in unison, and there was humanity: "Actually, the sauce beef made by the chef of our Hou Mansion is more delicious, I can eat ten catties at a time." ”

When everyone heard this, their saliva immediately became even happier, and they said in great pain: "The traitors are all settled, when can we return to Beijing?" ”

"The pursuers are still searching in the nearby mountains, wouldn't it be revealing their whereabouts when everyone goes out together at this time?"

Someone picked up the kettle and took a sip of raw water, scolding, "What are you afraid of them doing?" Frontal dryness! ”

After hearing this, several people were silent for a while, and someone said: "Actually, I think the boss also wants to go back, but he has been waiting for news, and it depends on what the capital says." ”

When several of them said this, they all shook their heads and sighed, the capital didn't know what the situation was, when the old marquis just fell ill, he didn't lose consciousness, he could still speak, he could get up, he realized that the situation was not right, and asked Jiang Beiyu to go to the border and not return to Beijing in a short time.

After all, the border soldiers were all brought up by the old marquis, maybe they couldn't reach it when they were in the capital, but in the area of the Quding Mountain Range, it was not a problem for them to protect a Jiang Beiyu.

It's just that Jiang Beiyu was afraid of those who were chasing and killing, and in order to find out the traitors, and even more so to watch the attitude of those former supporters, so he kept hiding and didn't show up.

Now that the matter is almost dealt with, everyone thinks that it is time to return to Beijing, otherwise the old marquis has been sick, and he is afraid that he will not be able to hold on to it by relying on Mr. Jiang alone, and most of the secret guards around the old marquis have been sent to pick up the son.

What kind of situation is it in the Marquis of Wenchang's mansion now, everyone dare not think.

As long as I thought of the unreliable young masters and young ladies in the house, not to mention Jiang Beiyu, even these secret guards felt a little desperate.

Someone whispered: "When we return to Beijing, can we still eat the sauce beef in the Hou Mansion?" ”

Another person put his hands together and said: "God forbid, I hope the chef will not be replaced!" ”

If the chef is bought by someone else, they can't just change jobs for a bite to eat, right?

How bad is that.

At this time, Ah Wu hurriedly ran over again, stopped when he passed by everyone, and asked breathlessly, "Where is the boss?" ”

The man tossed him a kettle, then lifted his chin: "What about that." ”

Jiang Beiyu was resting on a big rock, the clothes on his body were already very shabby, and there were still scratches on his face and hands, in the past few months, everyone had not had a good life, and he was no exception.

The mosquitoes in the mountains are very fierce, and because he is the son of the world, he treats him very well, and every night there is the sound of buzzing mosquitoes flying, and Jiang Beiyu can catch a handful of them as soon as he grabs them.

I don't sleep well every night, Jiang Beiyu is actually a little broken, his temper is not good, and the people under him know it, and no one dares to disturb him.

Ah Wu drank a few sips of water, wiped his mouth casually, and walked over quickly, looking excited: "Boss, the news from the capital is here!" ”

This is the second time they have received a letter from the capital since the last time.

Jiang Beiyu opened his eyes, and before he could speak, he suddenly slapped himself on the face with an expressionless face, and with a "snap", Ah Wu was so frightened that he almost knelt down for the prince.

After a while, I saw Jiang Beiyu slowly open his palm, and a mountain mosquito was lying on his hand, and he was miserable.

Ah Wu: "......"

It is said that the prince of the world carries a medicine bag to repel poisonous insects, and it is also amazing to attract mosquitoes like this.

Everyone discussed this matter in private, and in the end they always thought that the blood of the nobles was estimated to be more fragrant!

Jiang Beiyu shook his hand casually, glanced at Ah Wu, and said, "Read." ”

Ah Wu immediately unfolded the letter in his hand, and everyone pricked up their ears to listen.

At first, everything was fine, and he talked about some court movements and major events that happened between various families, but later when he said that the Hou Mansion had received the holy gift, everyone was shocked.

There was an uproar.

"Wait, does Ah Wu not know how to read? Is it mispronounced? ”

"Back then, when he was asked to study hard, he wanted to herd cattle, but now it's good, and he can't even read a letter."

Ah Wu was annoyed and ashamed, and turned around and glared at them angrily: "You don't know how to read!" It is written here in black and white, the saint has given a thousand taels of silver, a number of treasures, and the young lady has sent them all to Qingwang's mansion! ”

A few people stepped forward to take a look, and sure enough, the Marquis of Wenchang Mansion has received a holy gift, which is amazing, at this time, there is the emperor's support, it seems that the emperor's old thing is not useless!

However, someone said, "Why did the young lady send the holy gift to King Qing's mansion?" ”

Some people speculated: "Because the little prince is good-looking?" ”

Everyone: "......"

Didn't their young lady just think that the prince was good-looking, so she hugged him on the street, and wanted to marry the prince?

But!

Can this kind of big truth be told in front of the prince?

Everyone was eerily quiet for a while, and then, someone reacted, immediately raised his hand and patted the criticism, and said angrily: "Are you stupid? The old marquis is in the Qingwang Mansion, this thing must be a reward from the emperor to the old marquis, I can't understand this! Foolish! ”

Han Pi was stunned and said, "In this way, the young lady is also very good!" ”

At the mention of the young lady, everyone fell silent again.

They quietly glanced at Jiang Beiyu, and when they saw that there was no expression on his face, they coughed twice and changed the topic: "Ah Wu, what are you still doing in a daze?" Keep reading! ”

Ah Wu continued to read.

The letter said that the second lady Jiang Yan instructed the maid to poison the young lady, and the Qingwang Mansion really found some clues through this matter, and had already arranged for someone to go to the south.

Someone muttered, "Speaking of the Southland, didn't our people find out that there was a problem with the salt road there last time?" Do we have to go too? ”
