Chapter 843: Gu Family
He Zao felt that he probably didn't want to see the Four Treasures for several years.
Ji Yue was not as shy as she was at all, and smiled slightly: "Do you want it or not, I'll go and light the oil lamp!" Go out for a spin again. ”
He Zao knew that she was going to observe the safety situation around her, so she nodded and said with concern: "You be careful." ”
Ji Yue nodded, picked the wick, and went out.
He Zao was not in the mood to read, so he just took out the map on the bedside and lowered his head in contemplation.
In the middle of the night, Ji Hui came back, and he looked a little excited: "Girl, I have found out the whereabouts of the lord!" ”
He Zao was in good spirits, and he didn't care that it was the middle of the night, so he directly opened the door and let the other party in.
Ji Yue also woke up from her sleep and jumped up, her eyes a little vigilant.
Ji Hui lowered his voice: "The little one went to Mota City to investigate, and found that there were rumors everywhere about the disappearance of the lord, and the little one didn't dare to go to the army, for fear of being recognized, so he disguised himself as a beggar and waited at the gate of the Governor's Mansion for three days, and the people who came in and out were generals, as well as a few very famous doctors, and I heard them say tonight: 'The general is finally out of danger!'" ’”
He Zao is such a smart person, as soon as he heard her say this, he also understood what he meant.
"So, the man was found?"
"I'm not sure, but I'm worried about you, girl, so I'll come back first." Ji Hui said.
He Zao thought about it, walked a few steps back and forth in the house, and then made up his mind: "Tomorrow, tomorrow we will set off and go to Mota City!" ”
The next day, in the middle of the afternoon, the three masters and servants who were heavy in the wind made up businessmen who came to the north to find relatives, and several of them had the smell of rivers and lakes, so even if He was young, he was like a businessman who ran the rivers and lakes all year round.
Mota City is not a desolate small city as the people of the capital say, in fact, Mota City is particularly prosperous, in addition to the people of this dynasty, there are many people who are obviously dressed as foreigners, with exotic customs.
Ji Hui and Ji Yue had obviously seen it before, and they were not too surprised, but He Zao, looking at this ancient ethnic minority, looked at it with wide eyes and curiosity.
One of them, a strong man with half of his arms exposed, wrapped his head in a thick scarf, and wore copper bells on his hands and feet, and the bell rang as soon as he left. Look again, be careful, I'll rip your eyes out! It's a standard official language.
He Zao was not frightened, just smiled slightly and lowered his head.
Ji Hui frowned slightly, glanced at the strong man, and knew that he was a resident of the nearby Zhuangzi, who entered the city to change daily necessities, and his status was low, so he dared to be disrespectful to the girl.
However, now that the situation is special, he has no choice but to hold back his dissatisfaction and continue to move forward with He Zao.
Ji Yue explained in He Zao's ear: "Girl, the people here are fierce, whether it is a man or a woman, they will scold when they are angry, and there are many fights if they don't agree with each other!" ”
He Zao nodded: "I understand." ”
Ji Yue looked at her face and saw that she was really not frightened, so she was also relieved.
They booked the second room in the largest hotel in Mota City, and they were very wealthy.
The situation here is more complicated than in the capital, there are three more strangers in the city, and soon people from all sides get the news.
He Zao was very quiet, and he stayed in the hotel for three days, and every time he ate something, he asked Xiao Er to send it to him.
This made the boys curious.
On this day, He Zao finally went downstairs, she was still dressed as a teenager, Ji Hui pretended to be a middle-aged man with a short beard on the side of his mouth, and Ji Yue was a beautiful little girl.
A few people left the inn and came outside, and went around and around somewhere on the street to wait.
Ji Hui's people got the news that a major general of the Gu family would pass by here today.
That was Ah Che's cousin, whose name was Gu Ziming, and he had the best relationship with Ah Che in the army.
He was transferred here from the south, and the Gu family did not have military power in the north before, but it was because of the rise of the general Ah Che that Gu Ziming was asked to come over, and it could be regarded as inserting a cronie into the army.
The reason why they didn't dare to go directly to the Governor's Mansion to find Ah Che was that a Governor of the Governor's Mansion had a very bad relationship with Ah Che, before Ah Che came, he controlled the northern Xinjiang for decades, and he could be described as a local snake, but after Ah Che came, because he could fight well, he quickly won a good reputation among the people, and he had an army of 100,000 in his hands, which was more powerful than this Governor of Steul, so the relationship between the two people was even worse.
Therefore, even if it was speculated that Ah Che was now recuperating in the Governor's Mansion, He Zao and they were afraid of being a trap and did not dare to enter easily, and the people who had been installed in the Governor's Mansion before did not know if there was a mutiny, so Ji Hui did not dare to contact him easily.
He thought about it and felt that in Mota City, the only one who could be trusted was Gu Ziming.
Only the Gu family will not let Ah Che have an accident.
So, the three of them deliberated and finally decided to wait on the side of the road.
Ji Hui's information was not wrong, and after waiting for a long time, he saw Gu Ziming riding a horse and hurrying over with a group of soldiers, his expression was very anxious, as if something urgent had happened.
His face was still very immature, but his bearing had already been made into a qualified young general.
When the horse was galloping, Ji Yue suddenly tripped and fell, fell forward, and fell into the middle of the road.
Seeing that the dozen or so galloping horses were about to step on Ji Yue's body.
He Zao was so nervous that he didn't dare to breathe.
Originally, she was going to do this, but she would only do a little bit of three-legged cat work, of course, not as good as Ji Yue, who came out of the pile of dead people, so in the end, she decided to let Ji Yue be the guide.
Gu Ziming's horseback riding skills are also strong, he grabbed the reins of the horse suddenly, the horse's hooves were raised high, and then fell down, He Zao couldn't bear to look at it.
There was silence all around.
After a while, Gu Ziming's angry voice came: "Get out, otherwise you won't be killed!" ”
He Zao opened his eyes and looked over, Ji Yue had already rolled twice quickly, out of the range where the horse's hooves fell, and the dozen or so soldiers behind him were galloping, and they didn't panic when they encountered such a time, they tightened the reins one by one, and the whole team stopped.
Ji Hui hurriedly rushed forward, glared at Gu Ziming angrily, and hurriedly helped Ji Yue: "How are you!" Can you get up? Is there something wrong? ”
Ji Yue stood up, and immediately fell down with a thud, covering her ankles, with a trace of pain on her delicate face: "No, my ankles hurt, it hurts, it hurts......"
As he spoke, tears welled up in his eyes.
Gu Ziming was even more impatient, he was in a hurry, and he simply didn't make a mistake with everyone, he directly waved his whip twice in the air, and once again whispered gloomily: "Get out of here!" ”
