Mrs. Cao was shocked, thinking that her husband was injured.

She ran over in a panic and looked her husband up and down, and saw that there was nothing wrong, so she breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "What's the matter, husband, why is your face so ugly." ”

Cao Jian walked to the table and kicked on the flower table angrily, "My subordinates have suffered heavy losses!" ”

Mrs. Cao was taken aback, "How come!" How many people are there in General Liu, didn't Zhiyuan bring someone to estimate last night! Could it be that our men were lax in defense and were caught off guard by General Liu? ”

Cao Jian shook his head and said helplessly: "I underestimated General Liu......"

can become the regent's right-hand man, how can he be an ordinary person, and how can he really show his strength in front of people.

Although General Liu could no longer mobilize the regent's local power because of the regent's letter, he had more people under his command than he imagined!

The men of General Liu who came to the post station tonight to assassinate were more than ten times more than he estimated!

In order to deal with this part of the people, the Cao family lost forty percent of their cronies, a few hundred! It's all elite!

Of course, General Liu didn't get a good deal either.

He lost more than sixty percent of his manpower!

Mrs. Cao froze on the spot, no one expected that things would develop like this!

Mrs. Cao smiled bitterly, "This time, our Cao family must get the trade route between Beijing and Beidi, otherwise the gains will really outweigh the losses!" ”

At this time, Mrs. Cao's cronies and grandmothers came to report, "Madam, the one brought by General Liu is angry in the yard and asks for something, this is ......"

Mrs. Cao sneered, originally she could still be out of sight and out of mind, but now that General Liu had hit their Cao family so hard, she suddenly had no patience for Gu Yufei, only full of hatred.

"It's just a plaything, do you really think you're on the stage? If you want to make trouble, you can get out of the house and let her make enough trouble outside the house! ”

"Yes, ma'am."

Mama left in a hurry.

When such a thing happened, the Cao family had no mind to eat Chinese New Year's Eve, Rao was Chinese New Year's Eve today, but the Cao family was quieter than before.

Gu Yufei couldn't believe that she was kicked out of the Cao family like this!

She was surrounded by several of General Liu's guards who had left behind in the Cao family.

Being thrown out of Cao Mansion on such a cold winter night, today is still Chinese New Year's Eve, and I can't even find an open restaurant inn.

Everyone stared at Gu Yufei angrily and complaining, if it weren't for Miss Gu's work in heaven, if it wasn't for Chinese New Year's Eve to let the Cao family give some good things, they would be kicked out of the Cao family at this time, and they wouldn't even have a place to stay!

Although the Cao family did not treat them well, at least they had a warm house to live in, rich three meals a day, and now it is good, they can only stand on the empty street and drink the northwest wind!

Gu Yufei saw that these people's eyes were not good, so she cheered up and glared back, "Look at what!" You two go to the inn, you two go to the general, and the rest of you go get some warm clothes for Miss Ben!" ”

Although everyone did not approve of Gu Yufei, they could only do it at this time.

As a result, on the night of Chinese New Year's Eve, Gu Yufei was frozen outside for half a night before being picked up by General Liu.

When she got to General Liu's side, she was so cold that she was almost left with only one breath left.

In fact, those who were with Gu Yufei had already found General Liu, but in order to take revenge, Gu Yufei didn't come to her until midnight.

After both defeats, General Liu will no longer have the slightest trust in Cao Jian, let alone live in Cao's house again.

Half an hour after Qin Shuhuang returned to the Cao family, he got the news that the Cao family was fighting against General Liu.

When he learned the true number of General Liu's dispatches, Rao was already expected by Liu Renci Xie Xuanye, and couldn't help but be surprised.

General Liu's people were several times more than they thought.

If they also participate in the war today, I am afraid that they will at least lose the general personal guards!

Fortunately, Cao Jian hit these people hard.

Originally, General Liu thought that Cao Jian was a grass on the wall, but now he is afraid that he will directly conclude that Cao Jian has betrayed the regent.

The result of this banquet "fishing" was even better than they expected!

General Liu's manpower has been lost, and they will not have "poisonous snakes" watching them all the time, so that the negotiations with Beidi can be smoother.

Gu Hongchao, who was robbed of supplies by Qin Shuhuang, took a few people to survive for more than ten days with the corpses of three dogs.

As soon as the snow stopped, they set off.

They didn't have horses now, and they were afraid of colliding with Qin Shuhuang's convoy, so they took a different path.

After a lot of hardships, several people arrived near Xia Gongcheng.

Gu Hongchao, who was originally handsome, tall and straight, was already in disarray, and he looked similar to a begging beggar.

Luckily, he still had a silver ticket on him.

In the county seat around Xia Gongcheng, I exchanged silver tickets for silver, found an inn, and had a full meal after washing, and a few people in the group looked like people.

Batu wiped a handful of mutton soup on his beard and asked, "When will Gu Gongzi enter Xia Gong City?" ”

Gu Hongchao touched his hand full of frostbite and said coldly: "We have no goods, so we won't go to Xia Gongcheng." ”

And at this time, Qin Shuhuang must be in Xia Gongcheng, Xia Gongcheng still has the Xu family, in case he goes to Xia Gongcheng and is caught by Qin Shuhuang, I am afraid that he will never have a chance to complete the task given to him by King Ping!

Batuu: "Huh? "Where is the boy going?" ”

"The royal city of Beidi."

Batu was originally from Beidi, and when he heard Gu Hongchao say this, he immediately became happy.

"Gu Gongzi has a good eye, this place is very close to Beidi Wangcheng, I know very well there, there are many good goods that Gu Gongzi needs, I will definitely introduce the cheapest and best quality goods to Gu Gongzi, and when the time comes, Gu Gongzi can make a lot of money!"

Batu and his subordinates always thought that Gu Hongchao was really a merchant of Dawu.

In order to win the first opportunity, Gu Hongchao did not dare to delay this time.

didn't wait for the New Year in the county seat, he bought basic things and took Chang Sui and Batu and others to Beidi.

Batu is like an arrow, he is a person near the Beidi King City, there are relatives at home, he has not returned for many years, he wants to see how his relatives are.

The closer he was to the royal city of Beidi, the faster Batu hurried.

But he forgot that Gu Hongchao was a native of Dawu Jingcheng, and he was not used to the cold of Beidi, and Beidi Wangcheng was a little colder than Xia Gongcheng, and he was in a hurry day and night, and Gu Hongchao's body soon couldn't bear the illness.

When he was still more than half a day away from Beidi Wangcheng, Gu Hongchao had a high fever, his cheeks were burning red, and he was staggering on his horse.

Chang Sui looked at the drowsy young master worriedly, frowned and said to Batu: "Our son can't hold on, otherwise we will find a place to rest for one night first, and then rush to the royal city tomorrow." ”

Batu was anxious to return home, where was he willing, he said: "There is only half a day's journey, forbearance will be there, there is a doctor in the royal city, when the time comes, let the doctor treat Gu Gongzi, two pairs of medicines will be fine, to camp around here, Gu Gongzi has three long and two short, the doctor can't find it!" ”

Batu's point also makes sense.

So Gu Hongchao could only endure it.

In a drowsy state, he couldn't help but think, if he was by Qin Shuhuang's side, would Qin Shuhuang heal him?

Suddenly, smoke and dust rose not far away, and a team of strong men and horses ran in their direction......
