Chapter 197: Escort out of customs

The path chosen by the two was neither the path taken by Juan, nor the path taken by the group of guards with Li Yue, and there was no need to worry about meeting, so the two of them didn't dress up too much, so they wore a windproof and warm headscarf veil that everyone on the border loved, and they couldn't see their faces clearly.

The two of them stopped and walked along the way, and Li Yue was unwell halfway, so they were delayed for two days, and they walked for almost fourteen or fifteen days, and finally arrived at a town near Dry Water Town, which was already a small town near the border Yanmen Pass, and the two stayed at the inn in that town, and Li Yun sent Li Zhong to the inn over there to inquire and see if Juan had arrived.

When she arrived at this inn, Li Yun no longer took Li Yue out, but stayed in the house obediently, and Li Yue didn't shout bored anymore, because she found that this town was not as calm as it seemed on the surface, and there were all kinds of people who were disguised like them, and they couldn't distinguish friend from foe at all, so the best way now was not to go out.

The two of them waited in the house, reading books and practicing calligraphy when they had nothing to do, until Li Zhong came back the next day.

Looking at Li Zhong with a tired face, Li Yue went to the table and poured Li Zhong a cup of hot tea, handed it to Li Zhong and asked Li Zhong to sit down and drink it first, before asking, "How is it?" ”

Although Li Zhong was tired from running all the way, Li Yue's cup of hot tea moved Li Zhong a lot, and he answered, "Then Juan arrived the day before yesterday, and Zhou Gongzi has arranged everything, just wait for his wife to go over to meet, and then send Juan out of the customs." ”

Li Yue nodded and said to Li Zhong, "Go and prepare a set of slightly tattered clothes for me, and prepare a shabby turban veil, and I'll go over tonight." ”

After Li Zhong found the things, Li Yue dressed everything up, and then left the inn alone, got into Li Yun's carriage, which had been waiting outside, until he reached the vicinity of Dry Water Town, Li Yue said, "Stop, I'll go over by myself." ”

Li Yun said, "Send you to the town, be careful, it's okay." ”

Li Yue shook her head and said, "No, I have to walk over this distance by myself, otherwise it will not be enough to be dusty, and after everything is done, I will act according to the original plan." ”

Li Yun nodded in response, "Okay, be careful yourself." ”

Li Yue nodded, looked left and right to see that there was no one, then got out of the carriage, carried a small shabby package, and walked alone in the direction of Dry Water Town, the whole outfit looked a little embarrassed.

Closing the veil on her face, she said in her heart that the days on the border were really sad, the wind and sand were dry and cold, and the pain on her face was like a knife, which made her miss the outer mountain village a little.

It is also close to the border, but the outer mountain villages are much better, perhaps because of the continuous Daliang Mountain, which blocks the wind, sand and cold wind outside the pass.

Li Yun was not worried that Li Yue was alone, and when Li Yue was far away, he said to Li Zhong who was driving the car, "Follow from afar." ”

After walking in the cold wind and sand for almost half an hour, Li Yue felt that his whole face was a little stiff, and finally saw the town in front of him, and the tired Li Yue quickened his pace and walked quickly towards the town.

This dry town is not big, but there are a lot of people, I am afraid that it is because it is close to the border, and the town where Li Yue settled before, the people of all shapes and sizes walk on the streets of the town, and there are many inns, and there is an inn in a certain place.

Li Yue looked at the inns in the town, and thought that Zhou Huaijin had spent a lot of effort in order to let Juan and the others live in the inn he had prepared.

When she arrived at the destination, Li Yue knocked on the door of the inn that was closed, and then a guard opened the door, and when she saw the dusty woman at the door, she said coldly, "Our master has taken this inn down, and this aunt will change to another house." ”

Li Yue pulled down her headscarf veil, tried not to tremble, and kept her mouth calm, "This is it." ”

The guard saw Li Yue's face under the veil, recognized it at once, and hurriedly bowed his head to salute, "Miss Yue." ”

Li Yue waved her hand and said, "Go in first." With that, he quickly stepped into the door of the inn.

The guard hurriedly closed the door, followed quickly, and shouted inside, "Lord Hu, Miss Yue is here." ”

Juan was sitting in the hall of the inn with a worried look bowing his head and drinking tea, when he heard the shouts of the guards at the door, he raised his head excitedly, and saw a tattered cotton jacket, and Li Yue, who was in the dust, walking towards him.

Juan hurriedly stood up, greeted Li Yue, and said, "Miss Yue is finally here?" ”

Li Yue, who was afraid of the cold, was choked enough, but now she doesn't have to pretend, she is already embarrassed enough, her face is also a little purple from the cold, she is too lazy to be polite to Juan, and said, "Give me some hot tea first." ”

Juan hurriedly went to the table, personally poured a cup of hot tea for Li Yue, and handed it to Li Yue.

Li Yue sat down at the table, took a sip of the cup in her hand, felt better, and said to the guards who were waiting on the side, "Go get me a pot of charcoal again." ”

The guard didn't dare to delay for a moment, and hurriedly went to prepare, Li Yue said to Juan on the side, "Master Hu will sit down for a while, let me slow down first." After saying that, he continued to drink hot tea.

Li Yue drank two cups of hot tea, her hands warmed up slightly, and the guards also came out with a charcoal brazier and put it next to Li Yue, and Li Yue felt a little better.

This dry and cold weather, coupled with this leaky shabby cotton clothes, Li Yue is really cold enough, I really regret it at this time, I should have listened to Li Yun a long time ago, and let him send him to the town in a carriage.

After warming up a little and feeling more comfortable, Li Yue had time to take care of Juan on the side, and smiled apologetically at Juan, "Let Lord Hu smile." ”

Juan saw that Li Yue was so embarrassed, where would he have thought that Li Yue had been frozen outside for more than half an hour, and hurriedly responded, "Miss Yue has worked hard all the way, and Miss Yue has suffered a lot along the way." ”

Li Yue responded, "Fortunately, everything has been dealt with, as long as the task can be completed, Lord Hu's journey is still smooth?" ”

Juan said, "I have encountered several waves of harassment, but it seems that they are all small fights that are not in the climate, and there is no danger." ”

Li Yue nodded, "That's good, the guards who were with me before have all returned?" ”

Juan said, "Not yet, I'm afraid they will encounter the most trouble, otherwise it won't be so easy here, Miss Yue's clever plan is really powerful." ”

Li Yue secretly raised her eyebrows, she thought that this Juan should be worried about the safety of these guards, so she changed the topic, "Let's go to Yanmen Pass tomorrow, if it goes well, I will be able to get out of the customs tomorrow night." ”

When Juan listened to Li Yue's words, a smile finally appeared on his face, and he asked, "But what do you need to prepare?" ”

Li Yue said, "Pretending to be a Xianbei man who is a merchant in Dayan, there is a famine at home, and I plan to go back to rescue my family." ”

Li Yue chatted with Juan about the details that need to be paid attention to tomorrow, and Juan saw that Li Yue looked tired, so he said, "Miss Yue will go to the upstairs guest room to rest first, and I will ask Xiao Er to prepare a set of clothes with Miss Yue again." ”

Li Yue got up, thanked Juan, and went upstairs, and Xiao Er took Li Yue to the upstairs guest room, along the way, Xiao Er asked Li Yue about her needs, and followed into the house, and Xiao Er whispered, "Everything has been done, Madame just needs to take them out of the customs." ”

Li Yue nodded and said loudly, "Go and prepare some hot water for me, I want to bathe." ”

The next day, Juan was busy all morning, and finally everything was cleaned up, Li Yue also put on Xianbei clothes, wrapped herself tightly, and wore the thickened headscarf veil that Xiao Er prepared for her, leaving only a pair of big eyes, and then followed Juan's team and set off to the border Yanmen Pass.

Nowadays, such weather, coupled with the famine in Xianbei outside the customs, there are many people outside who want to enter the customs, but there are very few people who leave the customs.

In fact, the pass had already said hello, Ming Wenli had been waiting at the gate, and the team led by Li Yue could leave the gate at any time, but in order not to arouse Juan's suspicion, Li Yue still pretended to delay until the evening, and then walked towards the door with the team.

When he went out of the customs to be interrogated, Li Yue took a large group of people and horses, and when he arrived at the gate of the city, he saw Ming Wenli, who was even stronger and his face was a little red from the wind and sand, walking towards him in armor.

Li Yue couldn't help but reddened her eyes, but she thought that she still had a task ahead of her, and tried to keep herself calm.

Ming Wenli saw Li Yue, but he was more excited than Li Yue, but he couldn't help but go over and give Li Yue a big hug, his eyes were slightly red, and he said, "Yue'er, are you okay?" ”

Juan and the others slandered in their hearts, this month girl is really not simple, the deputy general who guards the door has a different relationship with her at a glance, and his eyes are red when he sees her.

Li Yue saw that the fourth uncle was about to lose his temper, and hurriedly said, "My lord, we are Xianbei people, doing business in Dayan, and now we are listening to a disaster in our hometown, and we want to go back to do our best, and ask the adults to help release us." ”

Hearing Li Yue say this, Ming Wenli came back to his senses, and pretended to go around the ox carts a few times in person, looked at it again, and let the group go.

When the group came out of the customs with a long team of ox carts, Juan finally breathed a sigh of relief, originally the Moon Girl told him that all the carriages would go out of the city together, and he was still worried that he would not be able to pass the customs, and he didn't want to go out of the customs so easily with the Moon Girl, which really made him unexpected.

After walking outside the gate for a short time, he saw a group of men and horses waiting there, and Juan exchanged the code with the men and horses, and handed them a cartload of "grain".

Li Yue watched these grains being transported away like this, and finally breathed a sigh of relief, finally there was no mistake, and this matter was almost completed.

The group changed back into the clothes of the Yan people, rode the horses left by those people just now, and returned to the gate again, and entered the gate under the banner of the prime minister.

After entering the customs, Mingyue said to Juan, "Master Hu, let's break up here." ”

Juan looked at Li Yue, "Miss Yue won't go back to Linzi County with us?" ”

Li Yue shook her head, "I am missing and taken away by human traffickers, but I can't go back by myself, if Lord Hu meets the person looking for me, he will want to reveal the news to them, saying that a group of human traffickers were captured when Yanmen Pass was released, and many women were rescued, so other Lord Hu don't have to worry." ”

Juan thought about Li Yue's interaction with the deputy general when she was at Yanmen Pass, so she guessed that Li Yue must have made arrangements, so she nodded and responded, "Miss Nayue, take care, there will be a period later." ”

Li Yue also clenched her fists and said to Juan, "There will be a period later." ”

Watching Juan leave all the time, and couldn't see the light of the other party's torches, Li Yue turned around and went to the Yanmen Gate with a torch.
