Chapter Forty-Seven—Old Friends Reunited
Thinking of this, Ye Shu felt even more curious about this, and his face couldn't help but show a slight expression of joy. Under the opening of the way by the two guards, Ye Shu walked in front of Luo Yinying and Sun Hao, Ye Shu's voice was a little calm, if it weren't for Li Fu and Luo Yinying and Sun Hao talking about Ye Shu's character, plus what they saw with their own eyes now, they couldn't believe that this Ye Shu was actually a reckless and impulsive governor. However, at this moment, Ye Shu, the governor of Jincheng, who was not wearing armor, but wearing a brown robe, looked burly and gave people a sense of rudeness, he touched his head, and asked with a big grin: "Are the two of you from Ruocheng?"
Ye Shu's question didn't seem to have any thoughts or concerns, but Luo Yinying and Sun Hao heard some deep meanings from it. Ye Shu seems to be a rough and fine, but in fact he is a thoughtful general. The first thing this general saw them now was, and what he cared about was whether they came here with Li Fu's token, to put it bluntly, some people didn't believe Luo Yinying and Sun Hao very much.
However, this is also a relatively difficult thing, after all, no one would have thought that their general Li Fu would give his only piece of troop transfer token to these two young people who looked to be less than twenty years old. And when Luo Yinying and Sun Hao showed this token again and let Ye Shu see it clearly, Ye Shu had such a knot hidden deep in his heart. He had been following Li Fu for almost five years, and Li Fu had never trusted him so much. This time, he was stationed in Jincheng only because Li Fu lacked capable generals, so he had to do it as a last resort. And the two young people in front of them, who looked to be less than twenty years old, what kind of ability did they rely on to obtain such an honor? Ye Shu couldn't figure it out in his heart. Because he knows that Li Fu is not an ordinary person, he is the eldest son of Li Dan, the prime minister who is now in power, and Li Fu, who will accept Li Dan's status in the court and the position of patriarch in the future, Luo Yinying and Sun Hao no matter how powerful they are. Li Fu presumably didn't need to buy their account. Then there is only one reason, and Ye Shu, who thought of this reason, was shocked in his heart.
So, although he was a little unhappy in his heart, Ye Shu still endured the dissatisfaction surging in his heart, and tried his best to make a calm appearance and said, "Since it is the token of the great general, I wonder what you two need my help to do?"
Luo Yinying keenly caught some subtle changes in his voice, but now Luo Yinying didn't care about these inconsequential issues, so she said straight to the point: " General, presumably your spies have not yet passed back important news to you, General Li Fuda let the two of us tell you that the first and third halls of the Fengguo Fengzhan will now secretly mobilize 50,000 soldiers and horses, and these 50,000 elite troops have now come through the Shengcheng border on the west bank of the Xuanling River, and the Fengguo army under the city of Ruocheng actually adopted delaying tactics, resulting in the defenders in the city and General Li Fuda's army unable to rush north to aid you, General Li Fuda ordered us to come here with his token, just to hope that the general is ready for defense, and holding Jincheng is a great achievement。 Luo Yinying didn't wait for Ye Shu to answer, and continued: "In addition, the general also hopes that the general can help us find a person, as long as this person is found, the general can rest assured that he will be able to send troops to help the general." At that time, not only can it fail the plan of recruiting troops to attack in two ways, but it can also thwart their conspiracy and reduce the pressure on Ruocheng. ”
Luo Yinying's words were fast, but they seemed very coherent. Ye Shu also understood what Luo Yinying meant, although he was reluctant to let two young people who looked to be less than twenty years old give orders to him. It's a pity that Ye Shu saw Li Fu's token, which made him have to accept this fact. Even though he is very unconvinced in his heart, how can this kind of little hairy child take on a heavy responsibility?
Ye Shu reluctantly swallowed this breath, and asked in a deep voice: "I don't know, who does the general want you to look for here?" Regarding the person Luo Yinying and Sun Hao wanted to find, Ye Shu also guessed a little, but he was not sure.
Sun Hao took out a pipa that looked very good in texture and showed a brown color throughout his hand. Luo Yinying said with a smile: "General, what we are looking for is the owner of this pipa, that is, the Ming saintess who led the Ming rebels to surrender to our Qi country a few days ago, Yu Fei. ”
Ye Shu breathed a sigh of relief, it turned out that they were not looking for someone who had something to do with him, this Ming saint girl he had also met, in the last time the Ming army returned to Qi and surrendered in Jincheng, Ye Shu also went out of the city to follow Li Fu to accept the Ming surrender. At that time, he admired the woman who looked calm and breezy and had a smile like snow. And his top boss Li Fu is also very important to Yu Fei, the saint of the Ming clan, when Li Fu led the army south, Yu Fei did not act with the army, Li Fu did not ask her much, and only secretly sent a few guards to protect Yu Fei. And these guards were transferred from Ye Shu's subordinates, so Ye Shu naturally knew about Yu Fei's recent traces.
Ye Shu raised his head, staring at the high walls and red bricks on both sides of the mansion, he stretched out his hand and pointed to a looming mountain range in the north, and said with some sentimentality for some reason: "This saint said that the mountain range was where their Ming people originally lived, but now it has become empty and uninhabited" Ye Shu told Luo Yinying and Sun Hao about the whereabouts of Yu Fei, the holy daughter of the Ming clan. Luo Yinying and Sun Hao also said goodbye and left. For them, staying here longer doesn't do them any good. Now that they know Yu Fei's whereabouts, they will naturally go to find Yu Fei first.
Staring at the backs of Luo Yinying and Sun Hao leaving, a faint coldness slowly surged in Ye Shu's heart, he didn't dare to doubt whether these two young people had faked the token of the great general Li Fu, he could only call two henchmen and guards, and whispered to them for a while. Luo Yinying and Sun Hao said that the news that the Fengzhan Society army was about to attack Jincheng, he needed to verify it carefully
The mountain range outside Jincheng City is the largest mountain range in Qi except for the Qingming Mountain Range near Licheng in the north, the Qingming Mountain Range in the north and the Qilian Mountain Range in the north of the Fengguo Lingcheng are coherently integrated, crossing the Qingming Mountain Range and the Qilian Mountain Range, which is the northernmost symbol of the Demon Spirit Continent - Tianhai Ridge. Around Tianhailing, the Yue people, an ethnic group in the north of Qi State, have lived for generations, and the area where the Yue people live depends on the endless sea, relying on fishing and a small amount of food cultivation to ensure their livelihood. Tianhailing, that is, the original Demon Spirit Continent connected to the Xuantian Nine Domains ruled by the Demon Spirit Continent of the Youchao.
However, due to the war and uninhabited terrain of the Yue people, there are not many people living here. That is to say, another Lan tribe who was also innocently slaughtered lived here, and there were no other people living between the Qingming Mountains and the Qilian Mountains.
The Ming people originally lived in seclusion in the Wenxiao Mountains next to Jincheng, and the Ming people who have been here for generations are also the most active people. It's a pity that since the previous generation of Qi emperors, the Ming people have been treated extremely unfairly. Among them, there were three massacres and two exiles. Although the Ming people have preserved the last tens of thousands of people in front of them, who can guarantee their safety in the future?
This is also the actual reason why Yu Fei is not willing to lead the Ming clan now, of course, there are also his personal factors. Yu Fei has not been favored by the clansmen since she was a child, and she has had a bumpy road until now, except for a very small number of Ming people who have given him care and love, other Ming people are cold to her. Yu Fei is now back in the Wenxiao Mountains, firstly, because she wants to recall her childhood past, and secondly, she wants to bury the northern elders of the Ming clan, who have used her since she was a child, but after all, who gave her warmth, back to the place where the Ming clan rests for generations.
This Wenxiao Mountain Range is not far from Jincheng, but the road inside is winding, and it is easy to lose your way. Because of this, Luo Yinying and Sun Hao also rested in Jincheng for the night, and set foot on the road to the Wenxiao Mountains in the early morning of the second day. Even so, they still came to the center of the Wenxiao Mountain Range when the sun was setting, and in the middle of the mountain range here, there were tombstones one after another. Obviously, this is the burial place of the people of the past who have been buried for generations of the Ming people.
As soon as Luo Yinying and Sun Hao walked in, a slightly cold voice immediately came from behind them. "You're finally here, but you're not welcome here, so you'd better get out of here early."
Luo Yinying immediately turned her head, her gaze swept over the tombstone in front of her. This voice Luo Yinying is not unfamiliar, and even very familiar. The only person who can say this voice here is Yu Fei.
"Fei'er, is it really you? I'm Luo Yinying! Don't you remember me" Luo Yinying tried her best to amplify her voice, hoping that Yu Fei would come out to meet them.
The voice that sounded in front of them was extremely familiar to Luo Yinying and Sun Hao, and the moment they heard this voice, they had already heard the owner of this voice, which was Yu Fei, a classmate and partner in the Royal Academy of Qi who they had not seen for a long time. And Yu Fei's identity at this moment is naturally the rumored saint of the Ming clan who led the Ming clan to set things right some time ago. Although Luo Yinying and Sun Hao didn't know that their classmate Yu Fei was such a saint of the Ming clan, they had a relatively thorough understanding of Yu Fei's character. Since Yu Fei studied with them in the Qi Kingdom Royal Academy for a few years, her state of mind has not changed too much. Although He's face looked full of coldness, in fact, Yu Fei was also a helpful and kind-hearted person. Luo Yinying still has some confidence in this point.
