Chapter 283: Bad News
Although Gu Xiqian was so comforted, Wei Yunmo felt an inexplicable uneasiness in his heart, as if something had happened to Wei Zilan.
"Xiqian, I can't just wait here, I also want to go and find it, Zilan is alone, I'm really worried." Wei Yunmo said.
After a while, the three of them immediately went out, and Gu Xiqian was also silently praying for Wei Zilan.
"Zilan, it's better if you don't have an accident."
On the other hand, General Ouyang led people to find them on the nearby mountain, shouting at the people around him.
"You all look for me carefully, this is my daughter-in-law, my eyes are wider!"
"Yes, General!"
However, looking for a hill and not finding Wei Zilan's whereabouts, everyone was helpless.
At noon, General Ouyang continued to look for him nearby, only to see that Wei Yunmo and others had already come to the bottom of the mountain, and General Ouyang immediately sent someone to entertain him.
"General Ouyang, has my little sister found it?" Wei Yunmo asked anxiously.
"We haven't found it yet, it's been a few hours." General Ouyang said helplessly.
"Could it be a bandit near here?" Wuwei asked.
However, Liuyun denied this assumption, this time Mo Xuanyin sent his own soldiers, and his combat effectiveness was naturally not a problem.
"In this way, the other party's goal is not to ask for money, but to run for the bride?" General Ouyang said.
Having come to such a result, General Ouyang hurriedly called the resting soldiers to continue the search, until he found someone.
At this time, I saw Gu Miaoxuan coming over with the soldiers, and General Ouyang immediately became vigilant.
"General Ouyang, I heard that your daughter-in-law is missing, so I specially summoned soldiers to look for you together, I only came at this time, please bear with me." Gu Miaoxuan bowed and said.
"The county lord's intentions, the old minister can't afford it." General Ouyang said politely.
The three of them looked at Gu Miaoxuan in front of them, and suddenly felt that this matter was not simple, but now in other people's territory, they could only be careful themselves.
After a while, I saw that Ouyang Yue also brought someone out to look for him, so the scope of the search suddenly expanded a lot.
However, Ouyang Yue seemed to be guided in the dark, and finally found a corpse under a mountain cliff.
"I found it again, let's go down and have a look!" Ouyang Yue said excitedly.
Seeing a woman lying not far away without moving, Ouyang Yue didn't know why she was a little excited, but she was a little uneasy.
When he saw the other party, Ouyang Yue's eyes suddenly widened.
"Everybody turn around!" Ouyang Yue said to the people behind him.
The woman lying on the ground was none other than Ouyang Yue, I saw that her eyes widened, she seemed to be in great pain, there was no trace of blood on her face, and even the skin of her body had become pale, and there were many bruises and scars.
Almost unclothed, and there is a mess under him, the situation can be imagined.
"Zilan!" Ouyang Yue cried helplessly, took off his cloak and covered her body.
"Childe, please mourn, the most important thing now is to inform the others." The adjutant general on the side said.
Ouyang Yue took a deep breath and sorted out his emotions: "Inform everyone, the person has been found, the corpse... Take it back and bury it! ”
Not long after, everyone rushed over, Wei Yunmo saw that the corpse was covered with a red cloth, and wanted to open it, but Ouyang Yue grabbed his hand.
"General Wei, you won't want to see it." Ouyang Yue said.
However, Wei Yunmo still ignored it, but after seeing it, he suddenly clenched his fists excitedly: "Who did it!?" ”
Everyone also lowered their heads, but they didn't expect such a thing to happen a few hours late.
"General Ouyang, General Wei, please mourn." Gu Miaoxuan said it alone, and then left with her own people.
General Ouyang shed tears even more, and silently said to the people behind him: "Don't let others know about this matter, please keep it secret, as for the matter of my daughter-in-law, I will definitely bury it." ”
Wei Yunmo didn't say anything but left silently, and everyone followed back to the General's Mansion to rest.
Everyone sat in the lobby, but no one spoke, and suddenly fell into a deathly silence.
"General, the aftermath has been arranged." A soldier walked in and spoke.
Ouyang Yue slowly raised his head, "Very good, the tombstone is engraved with the tomb of his beloved wife Wei Zilan, Ouyang Yue stands." ”
After the soldiers went down, Wei Yunmo finally spoke, "General Ouyang, find out the bandit strongholds you know near here, and I want to avenge my sister." ”
General Ouyang had no choice but to take out the map and mark the strongholds he had discovered.
"Their strength is very strong, if they go alone, I am afraid that they will die, and this is not necessarily what they did." General Ouyang reminded.
"Even if they didn't do the things of the soldiers, but my sister was abandoned in the wilderness, you dare to say that it has nothing to do with them?" Wei Yunmo said.
At this time, Wuwei was a little worried that Wei Yunmo was too impulsive, so he also offered to go with him, while Liuyun went to inform Gu Xiqian.
General Ouyang had no way to let Ouyang Yue accompany him, which could be regarded as avenging Wei Zilan.
After everyone made preparations, they went out separately, and General Ouyang prepared Wei Zilan's funeral, because this matter needed to be kept secret, so he could only do it hastily, and he could only make the tomb look as good as possible.
As soon as the two left, Wuwei took out his baggage, handed a sword to Wei Yunmo, and replaced it with a familiar copper sword.
"General Wei, this sword is as sharp as clay, and it is guaranteed to make you invincible." Wuwei said.
"Wuwei hero, you don't need to follow me, if I go like this alone, I may be sent to death." Wei Yunmo said, because he understood that even the general had no way to eliminate the bandits, how could he do it on his own?
"Hmph, those bandits, they actually did such a thing, they should have died, and even General Ouyang couldn't eliminate them, which means that they have a lot of oil and water, so I'll go and loot them by the way, just take it as to eliminate harm for the people."
Wei Yunmo laughed, got on his horse and left the capital.
On the other hand, Gu Xiqian received Liuyun's letter and immediately fainted.
"Xiqian, what's wrong with you?" Mo Xuanyin looked at it anxiously.
However, after seeing the letter, even Mo Xuanyin was a little helpless, but he didn't expect that he was still a step late.
"Come, take the queen down to rest." Mo Xuanyin said.
Not long after, Gu Xiqian woke up and found herself in the room, with Mo Xuanyin beside him at this time.
"Are you alright?" Mo Xuanyin said.
"How so? Zilan, she was killed..."Gu Xiqian suddenly cried.
"People can't be resurrected after death, cherish coriander, and mourn." Mo Xuanyin comforted.
At this time, the ministers came over one after another, wanting to make a big fuss about Wei Zilan's affairs, and even said that they would take the opportunity to send troops to Lanling Kingdom.
For the relationship that has just been established with great difficulty, Mo Xuanyin hopes that there are other possibilities, not to mention the generals who have been wooed,
"Don't be impatient, maybe there is a turning point in this matter, we should send someone to Lanling Kingdom to take a look at the situation before making a decision." Mo Xuanyin said.
However, Zuo Shangshu said: "Your Majesty, at this time, General Wei's sister has an accident, no matter what, it is also about the face of Yunnan State, if it is handled like this, I am afraid it will be inappropriate." ”
At this time, everyone also spoke one after another, and they all thought that it was better to ask the teacher directly.
However, Mo Xuanyin still tried his best to oppose public opinion and chose to send an envoy to Lanling Kingdom, but the candidate for the envoy did not have a goal.
Just when the ministers were worried, they saw Gu Xiqian come out, "This time, I will send an envoy to Lanling Kingdom." ”
Mo Xuanyin was a little surprised, and Gu Xiqian said that his relationship with Wei Zilan hoped that he could reconcile with the people of Lanling Kingdom this time.
At this time, everyone had to reluctantly agree, but they were still very happy about Gu Xiqian's decision, because many people looked down on Gu Xiqian very much, and even began to fantasize that this time she would be able to have an accident like Wei Zilan.
Subsequently, Mo Xuanyin began to prepare all kinds of self-defense things for Gu Xiqian, and even sent his own secret guard, and Gu Xiqian naturally did not relax, and called Dongfang Yi to join him.
The next day, Gu Xiqian left under Mo Xuanyin's gaze.
For this mission, Gu Xiqian naturally hopes to have a good relationship with General Ouyang of Lanling Kingdom, if it is really as Liuyun Xin said, this is the only good opportunity to hinder Gu Miaoxuan's development in Lanling Kingdom, so it is imperative to establish diplomatic relations with General Ouyang this time.
At this time, Wei Yunmo and the two had already come to a nearby bandit stronghold, and they saw that the mountains were their territory, and even there were people guarding every place, and there were even several people sitting and chatting nearby.
"Good fellow, the bandits are much stronger than when I came before, it was a small house at the time, and now it is actually a mountain." Wuwei looked at the mountain and said.
Looking at the bandits in front of them, the two decided to lurk first and wait for each other to leave before making a move.
"Eh, you know what? That chick yesterday was so exciting. One of them said.
The other person took a sip of wine and nodded in agreement: "Of course, that's a famous lady, but don't say it, this feels a little different from the previous girl, it's really exciting." ”
"That's it, when I watched those people bring people over, my temperament was quite wild, I didn't expect it to be a practitioner, and such a strong girl is only touching when she plays."
Listening to the foul language spoken by those people, Wei Yunmo on the side couldn't help it, because no matter where they spoke, they were very similar to Wei Zilan, which made him grit his teeth when he heard it.
What's more, even if they didn't say Wei Zilan, this kind of behavior alone was enough to make people want to cut them with a thousand knives.
"Look, there's a new woman!" A man pointed to the bottom of the mountain and said.
