Chapter 23: Stranded
About an hour later, the three of them came to the next city tower, Yongzhou, and after Yongzhou was the boundary of Jianling. Trade was frequent, and veiled women and turbans were everywhere.
"Childe, I just got the news that Daxiangguo will send troops to meet the tomb in half a month." As soon as he entered the city, Yun Li quietly reported to Mo Yuchen.
"Sooner than expected." Mo Yuchen said quietly.
"Hey, you're going to lose money on this thing." At the stall where Xiao Xiyue stopped, the stall owner with a headscarf was pulling her and not letting her leave.
"I just want to see, my hand broke as soon as I touched it, how can I tell you that it doesn't make sense, you clearly want to blackmail me for money." The more Xiao Xiyue thought about it, the more wrong it became.
"If you break it, you still say that I blackmailed you for money, anyway, you have to pay for what you damaged."
Mo Yuchen walked over and saw that this was a stall selling ceramics, and one of the stall owner's vases was broken, and it was said that Xiao Xiyue had broken it. "How much do you have?" Mo Yuchen took out the silver from his chest.
"Fifty taels of silver."
"You're a lion with a big mouth, when we're fools." Xiao Xiyue stopped Mo Yuchen's hand and didn't let him give the silver.
"Forget it, you should be ruined and avoid disaster." Mo Yuchen lost the stall owner's money and pulled Xiao Xiyue forward.
"It's really not a good thing, it's a slander at first glance." Xiao Xiyue is still indignant.
"This human heart is the most unpredictable thing, you have to be careful. I don't think it's a good place either, the borders of the country are always a little chaotic. Let's stay for two days and leave. ”
"Hmph, in our place in Daxiangguo, he was abducted and deceived."
"Yes, do you want to go to Yuliang Country with me, here to the east, you can reach Yuliang Country in two days." Mo Yuchen didn't want to put Xiao Xiyue in this dangerous place.
"Okay, hey, forget it, I still don't want it." Xiao Xiyue didn't want to trouble Mo Yuchen anymore.
"Aren't you going to travel? Yuliang country and Daxiangguo are on par, and they are also good mountains, good rivers and good scenery. ”
"By the way, you're going home, aren't you?" Xiao Xiyue thought that Mo Yuchen might have been out for a long time. "Where is your home? What do you do for a living? ”
"My father does some business, so I can go on a tour. When you get home, I can also help you arrange some coiling, I am a little worried about you going home this way. ”
Yes, this round trip seems to require a lot of silver, if it weren't for Mo Yuchen taking care of him all the way, how would his little silver be enough. "Okay. It's just going to bother you again. ”
Ten days later, Xiao Xiyue was in Jingcheng in Yuliang State, and Daxiangguo was led by the brave general Xiao Jun to lead 100,000 troops to Yuling, and Xiao Yongyan was ordered to follow. When Xiao Xiyue heard the news, it was already ten days after his father's departure. Xiao Xiyue thought that her mother was at home alone and had to go home. But she didn't know that she was already in the easternmost part of Yuliang Country at this time, and Mo Yuchen had been taking her eastward, far away from Kyoto, Daxiangguo.
Daxiangguo started the war and met the tomb, all the way like a bamboo, approaching the capital of the Yuling country, and the Yuliang country also sent troops to build the tomb, but the fight was very slow, looking all the way, slowly advancing. Xiao Xiyue didn't know all this. Mo Yuchen said that he would be able to arrive at his house in another day, and Xiao Xiyue believed it.
When he arrived at the house arranged by Mo Yuchen in advance, Mo Yuchen was sick, and the high fever did not go away, and Xiao Xiyue seemed a little unkind if he proposed to leave at this time. Besides, she was really worried about Mo Yuchen. Xiao Xiyue would visit Mo Yuchen every morning, but the doctor only asked her to stay for a while.
Ten days passed, Xiao Jun, the general of the Great Xiangguo, was trapped in the capital of the Lingguo, and the backup grain and grass were cut off, and Xiao Jun and Xiao Yongyan lost news so far. And Yuliang sent all the way to attack Gucheng in the east of Daxiangguo, and soon took Gucheng one after another, and the three cities of Fengcheng and Hong'an also did not move and did not advance. Taiwei Situ Gu eliminated Xiao Jun and several parties, and united with the prince to force the palace to rebel. Xiao Xiyue didn't know that now the emperor was under house arrest, and her mother had also been placed under house arrest in the palace.
When Mo Yuchen got these news, it was all expected, Yuliang Kingdom had already secretly communicated with Situ Gu, the Taiwei of Daxiangguo, and reached an agreement to exchange the three cities of Daxiangguo, and Yuliang Kingdom wanted to protect the crown prince of Daxiangguo. Now Mo Yuchen is just thinking about what excuse to use to keep Xiao Xiyue. After thinking about it for a long time, Mo Yuchen still decided to tell Xiao Xiyue the truth.
