Chapter 15: Bringing in Reinforcements

Feiyun knew that the Di Ge Lao that Wu Zetian said was Di Renjie, the prime minister of the dynasty. Di Renjie is Wu Zetian's most trusted minister, and there should be no problem with the people he recommends.

Feiyun hesitated for a moment and said, "In this way, Madame's whereabouts have been leaked, and it has nothing to do with the Jingzhou Mansion. Then who knows about your departure from Beijing? ”

Wu Zetian has actually been thinking about who leaked the news, but she has never come up with a clue. Listening to Feiyun's meaning, it was obvious that he suspected Luoyang's people of leaking secrets.

Wu Zetian hesitated for a moment, and said slowly: "I don't understand this matter either. There have been repeated attacks in the past two days, and it is clear that these people have been informed in advance. But only the prince, King Liang, Taiping and Di Ge knew about my departure from the capital. The four of them are the people I trust the most and will never reveal my whereabouts. ”

Hearing this, Meijing smiled and said, "In this way, these people who come to assassinate all have the ability to predict the future. They are both admirable and worrying. We're going to have trouble sleeping, because they're going to rush at any moment! ”

Although Meijing's words are a joke and a bit exaggerated, they also show the seriousness of the situation. Obviously, these people definitely don't have the supernatural powers that Zhuge Liang knows by pinching his fingers, but someone must have informed them of the news.

Liangchen then said to Feiyun: "Senior brother, I think it is indeed necessary to transfer troops from Jingzhou. If Pei Shouyi and others join forces with Xu Zhitang and his gang, we will not be opponents at all. With the escort of the imperial court, we don't have to worry too much! ”

Feiyun heard Liangchen mention Xu Zhitang, thinking that this was a hidden danger. The martial arts of Xu Zhitang and the three of them are not low, if they join forces with Pei Shouyi and the three to assassinate, Wu Zetian will definitely die. Feiyun told Wu Yuan that he agreed with his suggestion.

Wu Yuan immediately asked Wu Zetian to write an edict and handed it to a guard. Wu Yuan told the guards that he would wait for the reinforcements he led in the front town. The guards jumped on their horses and galloped towards Jingzhou.

There were so many wounded guards that a carriage simply couldn't sit down. Wu Zetian let the seriously injured guards sit in his carriage, and she, Shangguan Wan'er, and Zhang Changzong rode instead. Wu Yuan and the guards didn't dare to accept it, but Wu Zetian was stubborn.

Wu Yuan had no choice but to obey his orders and let the injured guards get into the carriage. He personally led two guards to open the way in front, and the remaining two guards each drove a carriage. Wu Zetian's safety, Wu Yuan could only be entrusted to the three of Feiyun.

After crossing the stone bridge, there is a field. I was delayed by Pei Shouyi and others for a lot of hours just now, and it was almost noon at this time. There are many farmers in the fields, and it seems that there is a village not far ahead.

Wu Yuan inquired with the farmer and learned that there was a large village and town a few miles away, called Guojia Town. Everyone was overjoyed, and hurriedly urged the horse to gallop, and soon arrived in Guojia Town.

There are about a few thousand households in Guojia Town, and the population is quite large. The main road of the town is lined with shops and is also very lively. Wu Yuan came to an inn named Qingfeng, and when he saw that this inn was relatively large, he turned over and dismounted.

Seeing this, the innkeeper hurriedly walked over and said, "Honor, our shop is the largest, best and most complete inn in town. There are luxurious rooms, as well as fine food and wine. Don't know what your guests need? ”

Wu Yuan looked around at the inn and asked, "Does your inn have a separate courtyard?" We have a lot of people, and we have to stay for a few days, and we don't want to live with other people. ”

When the man heard that there were many people living there, and he would have to stay for several days, he was overjoyed and said, "Yes, there is." Two separate yards in the backyard are guaranteed to satisfy your guests. Please come with me, horses and carriages can be placed in the stables on the side. Wu Yuan looked at Feiyun, who nodded and asked him to go in and check it out.

Wu Yuan took two guards and followed the guy into the inn. Good days and beautiful scenery urged Ma to stand on both sides of Wu Zetian, and Feiyun stood behind Wu Zetian. The three of them carefully observed the surrounding movements in case of accidents.

After a while, Wu Yuan came out of the inn, went to Wu Zetianma and said, "Madam, I think this inn is not bad, it is better to stay here for a few days for the time being, and wait for the people of Jingzhou." Wu Zetian bowed his head slightly and agreed.

The group followed Wu Yuan through the front yard and main hall of the inn to a courtyard in the backyard. On the left side of the garden is a garden full of various flowers and plants, which are filled with the fragrance of flowers during the blooming season.

On the front of the courtyard is a row of houses, and on the right is a spacious pergola with a table and a few chairs. A wall more than a foot high separates the courtyard from the rest of the world, and the courtyard is very quiet and relatively safe.

Wu Yuan gave the man a piece of gold and told the innkeeper that his group lived in this courtyard. Let the guy arrange a banquet and send it to the courtyard as soon as possible. Seeing Wu Yuan's generous move, the guy was overjoyed and hurried out to make arrangements.

Wu Yuan invited Wu Zetian and Shangguan Wan'er to live in the middle guest room, which was a suite, which was convenient for Shangguan Wan'er to wait for Wu Zetian. Zhang Changzong lived in the room on the right side of Wu Zetian, followed by the room where Feiyun lived and the room where Liangchen Meijing lived.

Wu Yuan and the three uninjured guards stayed in the guest room on Wu Zetian's left for protection, followed by the guest room where several seriously injured guards lived. After Wu Yuan settled everyone, he took a guard to guard the courtyard.

Feiyun entered the guest room and saw that everything was available, all kinds of items were neatly arranged, and the bedding on the bed was also very clean. Feiyun pushed open the window and saw that outside the window was a relatively large pond with blooming lotus flowers and cruising geese and ducks.

At this moment, Liangchen and Meijing walked in and said, "Senior brother, we want to go to the town for a walk, is it okay?" Feiyun sat the two of them down, thought for a while, and said, "Jingzhou's reinforcements will not arrive here until the day after tomorrow at the earliest, so it seems that we will have to stay in this inn for at least two days." You can go for a walk around the town, and ask for some news about the rivers and lakes by the way. ”

Liangchen smiled slightly and said, "Senior brother, I mean the same thing. I think the three groups of Assassins I met in the past two days may have been in town, secretly watching us! Meijing said: "In this case, we can only go out after we have changed our appearance." ”

Liangchen thought for a moment and said, "Meijing, I have already thought about it, and we will not go out until we change into men's clothes." Feiyun smiled: "You should dress more ordinary, otherwise two handsome men will definitely attract attention when they appear on the street." ”

Seeing that Feiyun temporarily agreed with his opinion, Liangchen said, "There shouldn't be anyone to assassinate now, senior brother might as well go with us." ”

Feiyun shook his head and said, "This can't be careless, it's better to be careful." At this moment, only Wu Yuan and the three guards have combat effectiveness, and if a killer appears, they may not be able to resist it. ”

Liangchen didn't say anything more, and pulled the beautiful scenery out of the room. The two of them changed into men's clothes, said hello to Feiyun, and left the inn.
