Chapter 148: The Imperial Situation

When Bai Susu woke up, she said what she had thought yesterday.

"We're leaving Butterfly Valley?"

After hearing this, Twenty-two showed a puzzled look.

Bai Susu nodded and explained: "I actually had this idea when I came here before, although I went to the bottom of the mountain to change the formation, but it didn't last long, leaving here is the safest choice." ”

The two of them didn't dare to comment on Bai Susu's arrangement, but Yuxin asked worriedly, "But after leaving Butterfly Valley, where are we going?" And the master's poisonous ......"

Bai Susu already had an idea of where she was going to go in the future, as for Chu Hengyu's poison, she could only find all the information about this poison through all forces and energy now, and see if she could make a breakthrough.

She could only say now: "There is a hidden place in the mountain behind Butterfly Valley, which can take advantage of the terrain here, and it will not be discovered so quickly, let's move there first, and then make plans." ”

Seeing that Bai Susu had already deployed these, the two could only nod their heads, and followed Bai Susu to start packing up their things and preparing to go to the back mountain.

The place in the back mountain was accidentally discovered by Bai Susu before, and even Xuan Qingzi never told it.

Although I don't know if Xuan Qingzi knows that there is such a place, but since meeting Xuan Qingzi last night, Bai Susu has always been worried about other things.

This can only be a temporary hiding place, and she has arranged for people on the rivers and lakes to help find a place not far from Butterfly Valley, but more convenient to hide.

Staying near this Butterfly Valley is not only because the medicinal materials here include almost all of them, but also because on Xuan Qingzi's side, Bai Susu has not completely given up.

If you can find an opportunity to make Xuan Qingzi willing to hand over the blood silkworm, then this place is obviously the best place to wait for the rabbit.

It's just that Bai Susu and the others had just packed up their things and were about to take Chu Hengyu to the back mountain, but they saw a signal flare suddenly released under the mountain.

Yu Xin heard the sound of the signal flare, looked up, and said suspiciously: "This voice is our signal flare!" ”

Bai Susu turned his head and asked, "Are you sure?" ”

Yuxin nodded and replied, "That's right, our usual contact is through this signal flare." ”

Bai Susu asked again: "Then do you know who is coming?" ”

Yu Xin recalled, but still shook her head, and said, "I haven't communicated with the secret guard in the past few days, and I don't know who will come here, and there are not many people who know that we are in this place. ”

After listening to Yuxin's explanation, Bai Susu thought about it, and said, "You wait for me here first, I'll go and see who it is, if there is anything wrong, you will leave with Chu Hengyu." ”

Although Yuxin was able to determine that the signal flare was sent by her own people, she was still a little uneasy in her heart, and said: "It's better to let your subordinates go down with Niangniang, if something happens, there will be a response." ”

But there were originally only three people here to take care of Chu Hengyu, if the two of them were gone, Twenty-two would only know some three-legged cat kung fu, once this was to transfer the tiger away from the mountain, then Bai Susu would definitely regret it.

So she still said: "No need, as long as you take care of him, as long as the formation on the mountain is still there, even if there is really any danger, it won't hurt me." ”

Twenty-two also understood that his strength was not enough to protect Chu Hengyu, so he also said: "Yuxin, you don't have to worry too much, take care of the master." ”

After the three of them reached an agreement, Bai Susu didn't delay any longer, took the things for self-defense, and walked down the mountain.

Bai Susu soon came to the bottom of the mountain and found the person who put the signal flare according to the sound of Fang Cai.

As soon as she saw the man's figure, she recognized him.

I saw Bai Susu walk up to him and ask, "Chenyuan, why are you here?" ”

After the dust margin put the signal flare, he waited at the bottom of the mountain, because he knew the danger of this butterfly valley, so he didn't dare to go up the mountain rashly, just waiting for someone to come down to pick him up.

After he saw Bai Susu, he hurriedly saluted, and then replied: "Niangniang, this time it was really forced by the situation, so my subordinates came rashly." ”

Seeing that his face was anxious, Bai Susu didn't ask any more, but said, "It's not appropriate to stay here for a long time, let's go up with me first." ”

Although Chenyuan didn't know what was going on, he still followed Bai Susu's instructions and followed her to Butterfly Valley step by step.

The two of them were still waiting anxiously, and after seeing Bai Susu coming up, they were still followed by Chenyuan, and their hanging hearts were finally let go.

But Yuxin couldn't help but step forward and ask, "Dust? Why did you come over and don't tell me, is something wrong? ”

Chenyuan nodded solemnly, and first asked, "How is the master now?" ”

Bai Susu hid his gloomy expression and replied: "I'm still asleep, and now I have found a way to detoxify, but I still can't do it." ”

When Chenyuan heard this, his face became much more solemn, not only because he was worried about Chu Hengyu, but also because there seemed to be more complicated reasons in it.

It's not good to leave now, but fortunately, he doesn't care about such a little effort, so Bai Susu asked directly: "Tell me, why did you come here for?" Is something wrong? ”

When Chenyuan heard Chu Heng's words and was not awake, he was still disappointed in his heart, but now that he saw Bai Susu, he suddenly rekindled hope.

said: "There is something wrong with the treasury, Lord Cai is very anxious about this, so he asked his subordinates to come to His Majesty to see if there is any way." ”

Bai Susu asked again: "What is the matter, you can tell me in detail." ”

Chenyuan didn't beat around the bush anymore, explaining: "Soon after we returned to Beijing, there was news from the household department that there was a drought in many places this year, and the harvest was not good, so it became a problem to pay taxes. ”

Bai Susu didn't know about these things, so he waited for Chenyuan to continue.

"Just the previous expedition has already cost most of the silver taels in the treasury, plus the terms of this battle...... Always, in addition to the pensions for the sacrificed soldiers, there were also the costs of repairing the army, and the treasury was already short of silver. ”

He didn't say it all, but they understood it.

This battle was just Chu Hengyu's desire to rescue Bai Susu.

Although because of Bai Susu's ability, no one in the army dared to point fingers at this peace condition, but for Da Liang, he still did useless work and came back with nothing.

In this way, it is indeed a matter of course that the treasury is tight.

Chu Hengyu's poisoning was too urgent, even if he had returned to Beijing, there were still many things to deal with.

This time there is no backbone, even if Cai Yibai is resourceful, there is no way.

That's why Chenyuan didn't even write a letter, so he hurried over, just to see if there was a solution.
