Chapter 52: The Truth

Even though this person is wearing a guard uniform, he does not have the solemn appearance of a guard, but his elegant and elegant appearance has more of the heroic posture of a soldier, a little less leisurely and lazy, and it looks like it has more of a human atmosphere.

Gu Xi noticed that her gaze stayed on her body all the way, raised her eyebrows slightly, and her contemplative gaze instantly rippled and dissipated in an instant at the corner of her slightly raised eyes, but the light of doubt seemed to be blooming in the dark night to brighten the sky and confuse the minds of others. Only then did he remember that this woman had not turned away from him when he had dressed twice. This is because she was originally a princess of Jin Gui who came to her hand, and since she was a child, she has been accustomed to not avoiding the action of others dressing herself, and she has long been accustomed to the actions of others dressing in front of her, and she is used to it?

Not to mention, if it weren't for the real princess, I'm afraid I wouldn't have the determination to ignore etiquette. Although the folk customs of the Ul Kingdom are not as conservative and strict as those of the Chengguo; But it is not as open and bold as the desert country; It is not as good as the upside-down world of Yuguo, there is a difference between men and women, and the etiquette of giving and receiving kisses must be strictly observed.

Yun Yanzheng suddenly noticed something strange in his gaze, and then remembered that he shouldn't have stared at others so unrestrainedly. Especially since the man was still an adult beautiful man. She didn't have any thoughts, but she was already used to this kind of scene of being dressed by others for herself, not to mention that the other party was still a teenager and wore a coat, so there was nothing to look at. But later, I was just a little curious about whether he would wear a military uniform, and then I naturally looked at his elegant movements and pleasing appearance, and accidentally forgot to blink my eyes.

Yun Yanzheng suddenly blushed a little, and his heartbeat quietly increased a little. She blinked vigorously, smiled innocently and a little scoundrel, and said calmly: "These days, I have been looking at information and maps all night long, discussing countermeasures, so that my eyes are a little straight, sir, don't be surprised!" ”

Gu Xi chuckled lightly, like ice and snow, his long eyebrows were stretched, and he was gentle and soft, like a faint cloud blooming on the horizon. The corners of his lips seemed to be smiling, and he put his hands on each other and said politely: "Yun Shuai has worked hard, such a major matter for the country and the people, Gu Mou has not been able to share one or two for this, and will only eat here in the corpse, which is really ashamed." ”

Does this person even have to have a barb on his tongue when he speaks? Do you want to say this to Sang and scold Huai? Or do you want to throw bricks and stones?

Yun Yanzheng slandered him in his heart, but he pretended to be calm and said on his face: "The talent of the military advisor was obvious to everyone in the past, how can it be overused?" Ben Shuai came here tonight, just because he has something important to entrust to you, sir, and I hope that Mr. can do his best for this, and don't postpone it. ”

Finally have to say what you really mean?

Gu Xi's dark pupils smiled warmly, and asked knowingly: "Gu Mou listens attentively, would you like to hear the details?" ”

Yun Yanzheng also pretended to be stupid and said, "This matter is life-threatening. ”

Gu Xi raised his eyebrows slightly, making a look of sudden realization.

Yun Yanzheng nodded, his slightly narrowed phoenix eyes were shining, and he smiled and said, "Before you go with me to treat others, I hope that Mr. Please will teach me the art of disguise first." ”

At three o'clock, the sky was still bright, and the army had already set out.

Behind the long procession, there was an additional light carriage, flanked by a convoy of thirty men guarding the men on board.

The people in the car were said to be Gu Junshi, who had just been seriously injured last night, and Lin Jun, a guard who was taking care of him.

In the carriage, the person wearing the guard's uniform was naturally Gu Xi after the disguise. He was sitting in the rickety carriage at the moment, looking at the assassin lying in front of him, his patient, and his face unexpectedly showed a faint smile a little innocently. The important thing that Yun Yanzheng entrusted to him was to connect the tongue to this person, and then no matter what method he used, he had to ask the details of this person, who belonged to him to assassinate her, and what kind of plan he had for the rest?

I'm afraid that her purpose is more than that.

Tie him with the assassin's intractable injuries and identity, both in his hands and feet and in his mind. At the same time, he also wants to test how much strength and ability he has to use to help her? By the way, find out how much strength and ability he still hasn't used?

The corners of Gu Xi's lips pursed a faintly visible leisurely arc, and his eyes looked at the injured person in the carriage warmly. After examining this person from head to toe, he thought in his heart that he should show a little strength and ability in front of Yun Yanzheng to be the most appropriate?

There is also the elite escort team composed of thirty people outside the carriage who are now watching Gu Junshi's every move in the name of protecting his safety. I believe that Yun Yanzheng will not forget to explain that they must also pay attention to the every move of the accompanying guard "Lin Jun", which is a more rigorous house arrest surveillance.

She gave him a big gift, not only to know his strategy for the decisive battle of this trip, but also to put him in this cage so comfortably?

From here, there are water and land routes to Huicheng. If the waterway is smooth, it can be five days earlier than the overland route, but the waterway is changeable and there are many reefs.

Gu Xi had been in the carriage all along, and the people he saw were except for the dying assassin, that is, the well-dressed and cold-faced guards of the imperial horse who occasionally glimpsed out of the flying curtains. Even the big boat that got off the bus and went to Guandu was surrounded and guarded by these thirty guards, and the assassin was even more honored to bear his name, and was carried to the compartment of the cabin in a soft sedan chair.

At this moment, in the spacious wing, except for the intermittent breathing of the assassin in the inner room, he was left sitting alone in the middle of the fox.

Even the door of the house was guarded by soldiers, and lunch was brought to the room for him to enjoy.

Gu Xi smiled helplessly, the expression on his face was calm and leisurely, and nothing changed. After lunch, he was still fiddling with the herbs he had brought with him all the way in the wing. Concentrated, he has almost forgotten his predicament, forgotten everything in this world, and even has only those various grass leaf beetles in his eyes. Slender and clean fingers tapped the tabletop, silently calculating the amount in his mind, as if carefully searching for the best recipe.

There was silence in the outer room, except for the occasional soft sound of snow-white clothes rubbing, and even the sound of breathing was so light and light that I was so focused that I forgot myself. So focused that even the anomalies that should have been noticed by the ship and the ship seemed to have been ignored by the careful consideration in his heart.

In the cabin, very few people are moving around. Yun Yanzheng only stood on the deck for a moment shortly after boarding the ship, and she was never seen again. But those who are interested can always notice that the window sash in a certain part of the ship is slightly open, and there is a slender figure in a snowy suit or looking at the picture; or write a book; or pacing back and forth; or counsel with others......

Outside the cabin, the scorching sun reflected the sparkling fluctuations of the water, and the green and spacious Changyan River was like thousands of golden snakes floating and dancing on the water. Wherever the warship passed, the golden snakes seemed to burrow under the ship and lay in ambush, ready to wait for the opportunity to move.

Two days later, there is Bibo Bay, where there are many turbulent rivers on the reef below, and it is the most crisis-prone place. At nightfall, there is a name for this place, which is called Bone Beach. Even the experienced helmsman who has been dealing with it here all year round is not very sure that he will be able to sail at night, avoid all the reefs here, and find the safest route. Therefore, people passing through this place generally try to spend the bay during the day, or drop anchor in the evening to rest at a distant place and wait for the sky to clear.

In the past three days, the refugees who escaped from the lost city of Weiguo flocked to Huicheng one after another.

The general who defended the city, Wei Chi, looked at the more and more refugees gathered under the city tower, and he couldn't make a choice in his heart. Refugees suddenly rushed to Huicheng in large numbers, and some of them always insisted on entering the city, insulting the officers and soldiers, slapping on the city gates, and refusing to leave for shelter in other cities after a long time of admonition. These are most likely the tricks of the enemy, and it is very likely that the people have mixed in with the scouts of the Yu State.

Wei Chiying let out a long sigh, outside the city wall are the people of Ul, but inside the city wall are also the people of Ul.

If you want to save the people outside the city and harm the people inside the city, which is right and wrong? But if you want to save the people inside the city, but you have to sacrifice the people outside the city, which is more important?

The poisonous strategy of the Yu army not only makes people in a dilemma, but also has a series of strategies to attack the hearts of the soldiers. If the Yu army scouts under the city sneak into the city, I don't know what kind of vicious strategy they will use to destroy this temporarily defended and stable Huicheng? If the people under the city are not allowed to enter, they will inevitably be shot and slaughtered by the Yu army, so that the soldiers and people in the city can witness such a tragic and cruel Shura Hell, will they be disgusted with him, who is a defender, and thus divide, the soldiers can not be unanimous, the army and the people cannot be single-minded, shake the soldiers of the city, and lack the embankment with ants?

Even though Wei Chiying was anxious at the moment, how could he explain his various worries and intentions to the people and soldiers in the city?

Even if he could explain it, would the people and soldiers be able to accept his decision?

The worst of this happened on the morning of the third day.

On the edge of anxiety, he ushered in an enemy who was stronger than himself.

Wei Chi stroked the city with his hand, his heartstrings tensed, and he looked down at the people gathered under the city gate, no matter how much they persuaded them these days, they would not go to another city and leave. dragged children and daughters at the bottom, helped the old and the young, and some people fell down because of hardship; Some are curled up by hunger; Someone wept in panic; Some people were sad and angry because of indignation, and all kinds of people were banging on the city gates, pushing and pushing the city gates, mixed with various voices of shouting and shouting, and the rhythm of sorrow and anxiety shook the heartstrings and will of the defenders on the city walls.
