Mu Changzhou stood in front of her, looked at her left ear, and turned his head as if listening to the movement.

Before she could speak, her left ear suddenly sank, and one palm pressed up, followed by a whistle in her right ear, but it did not enter her left ear, and it did not seem to be as sharp as before. She was stunned for a moment, only to find out that it was Mu Changzhou's hand, he was holding a bow in one hand, and the other hand was firmly attached to her left ear.

"Does this sound make your left ear ache?" Mu Changzhou said.

Shun Yin couldn't hear it clearly, his eyes just fell on his thin lips, and he knew what he was talking about when he looked at his lips one by one, "um".

No other sound could be heard in this left ear, only this sharp sound, which stabbed straight into the bone marrow like a knife every time.

The hand clenched suddenly, followed by another sound. Shunyin stood motionless, without the previous sting.

It seems that there is no sound, it should not sound anymore, Shun Yin wanted to say that it was okay, but when he looked up, he seemed to rub his palm against him, and he couldn't help but freeze.

Mu Changzhou was still listening to the movement, lowered his eyes, and touched her gaze, his hand was long, covering her left ear and almost touching her cheek, she was tilting her head at the moment, in his eyes, it looked like he was caressing her face.

They were silent for a moment, and Shunyin's eyes moved: "Okay." ”

Mu Changzhou looked at her, took his hand away, took the bow in his hand, met her eyes, and said: "Yin Niang is very important to me now, and it is appropriate to protect her more." ”

CHAPTER XXII

There was no movement in the four rounds, and Zhang Junfeng and Hu Xiao'er also returned from fifty paces away one after the other.

Shunyin caught a glimpse of it, and immediately got out of the way half a step under his feet, and stood sideways from the close felt cloth.

Mu Changzhou's robe in front of him swayed, and he brushed his side, and he also took a step away.

"The military secretary has been arranged." Zhang Junfeng approached the newspaper, "Wait for them to rotate another shift in the middle of the night, so that everyone can rest." After speaking, his eyes turned around the two of them, and he suddenly found that they were very close, but he didn't speak, and he didn't know what happened to the two of them when they walked away just now.

Shun Yin thought that there was nothing to do, so she avoided the probing gaze, uncovered the felt cloth with one hand, and entered the account.

Mu Changzhou turned his head and saw that she had covered the felt cloth inside, turned around and nodded at Zhang Junfeng, meaning that he understood, walked away two steps with a bow, and sat down with his clothes tucked.

There was no fire, but soon the moon rose in the sky, and it was bright in all directions.

For fear of attracting patrolling soldiers and horses, No one said much, and the surroundings were very quiet.

Hu Xiao'er rested by a dead tree nearby, and Zhang Junfeng was at the other end. He saw that Mu Changzhou had been sitting a few steps away from the felt cloth, as if he was personally defending, and the thief's heart was guilty again, so he moved closer and said in a low voice: "The military secretary will go into the tent to rest, It's nothing, we are here." He pondered that he had come out with his wife, and he didn't let him talk too much, it must be reluctant to be gentle and gentle, so what was there to avoid, anyway, he and Zhang Junfeng were confidants.

Mu Changzhou only glanced at him, and then closed his eyes.

When Hu Xiao'er received his eyes, she immediately shut up and moved away silently.

Shunyin almost slept until the sky was blue.

Even if you sleep in the open in this environment, you can still sleep well as long as you cover your right ear.

After a night of sleeping in a good clothes, she woke up and took off the felt cloth to look out, and saw Mu Changzhou sitting on a fallen dead tree a few steps away, and the longbow in his hand seemed to have not been put down, as if he had woken up a long time ago.

As if feeling something, he glanced back and saw that she was awake, so he stood up with a bow: "They have all been avoided, you clean up by yourself, and then go on the road." After saying that, he walked away with his bow.

Shunyin turned his head to look around, there was indeed no one there, put down the felt cloth, and immediately went to clean up.

Hu Xiao'er had already led two archers to the vicinity to see, after all, this is the land of Hexi, the rules of the inspection are no different from Liangzhou, and they are not even as strict as Liangzhou, they know everything about it, and at this time, it is just in the interval between the inspections, and it is just right to go on the road.

And they led their horses out, waiting only to set out.

Mu Changzhou walked over, had washed nearby, there were still traces of water on his face, turned over on the horse's back, and only stopped where he was.

At a glance, you can see who they are waiting for. Zhang Junfeng and Hu Xiao'er can only make eye contact now, this road is not a comfortable road, why bother taking this lady, they all feel that it is too unnecessary, but it is cumbersome. I still have to wait for her now, there is a difference between men and women and everything needs to be avoided, and I don't know how long it will be delayed......

Before he finished thinking about it, Shunyin had already come, and when he arrived in front of him, he immediately got on horseback without dragging his feet.

Zhang Junfeng and Hu Xiao'er were speechless, turned their heads and waved at the archers, asking them to clean up the felt cloth tent.

Mu Changzhou glanced at Shunyin, saw her so quickly, smiled on his lips, and pulled the horse first.

Shun Yin had already caught a glimpse of his eyes, pulled down the veil of his hat, and followed.

The team walked a further way, and in the distance there were endless mountain peaks, all the way that seemed to follow the mountain range.

Shunyin was looking over there, and Mu Changzhou's voice came from the right: "That's Qilian Mountain." ”

She glanced at him: "In my early years, I saw the map of Hexi in my father's study, and it should be close to the boundary of Ganzhou here." "If you take the official road normally, I don't know how much slower it will be, but this shortcut is so fast.

Mu Changzhou said: "That was the early years, and now Chang'an can't get the latest map of Hexi. ”

Shun Yin couldn't help but glance at him again, that was for sure, now that the fourteen states of Hexi and the Central Plains have such clear barriers, I am afraid that even the saints in the palace may not be able to see the latest Hexi map.

"So with Yin Niang here, Chang'an must be 'very happy'." Mu Changzhou suddenly said again, vague and unclear, only each other understands.

Shun Yin pursed her lips suddenly, deliberately poked her with words, and picked the words in the letter to poke, so she simply didn't look away and hit the horse one step away.

The horse was already moving down, down a slope, and directly into a wading river.

The horse under Shunyin trampled a few times in a panic as soon as she got out of the water, and she hurriedly grabbed the reins, only to find that the water was not deep but very turbulent, and there were still a lot of gravel in the water, and the potholes were difficult to walk.

A longbow suddenly stretched out in front of her, she turned her head, Mu Changzhou held the reins of the horse in one hand, and the end of the longbow in the other, and handed it to her: "Hold it." ”

She didn't want to pay attention to it, but the horse swayed, and she didn't have time to think about it, so she grabbed the end of the longbow with her right hand, and pulled the reins with her left hand to stabilize the horse.

Mu Changzhou led the way with a bow and went first on the right front side.

Shun Yin grabbed the bow, sometimes crooked, several times almost leaning on the bow with all her strength, but I didn't see his hand shaking, the longbow supported her, always very steady.

Until it completely crosses the river, the horse's hooves step on the riverbank, the resistance in the water stops, and the horse's hooves become lighter.

Hu Xiao'er and Zhang Junfeng, who followed behind, both led the archers to the side one after another on the riverbank, and they obviously had already experienced.

Shun Yin eased his breath before he let go of his longbow and glanced at Mu Changzhou: "It seems that Second Brother Mu is really in a hurry, and he has to go on such a difficult road." ”

Mu Changzhou withdrew his bow and looked over: "Yin Niang just started walking with me, this is already good to go." ”

Shun Yin watched him beat the horse in front of him, and always felt that he had something to say, and there were other people watching on the side, so he had to stop talking and follow the horse.

The road ahead is really easy to walk.

It just so happened that the weather was good these days, the sun was not shining, and the rush was just right, and the speed of the horses and horses became much faster.

After riding along the trail for a few hours, I saw the outline of a small town in front of me.

Mu Changzhou slowed down his horse speed and ordered loudly: "Bright identity, enter the city and enter the post house to rest." ”

Everyone said yes.

Shun Yin followed him without saying a word.

The post house in the small city was very idle, and was suddenly broken by the sound of hooves coming from a fast horse, and one of the first people put on his beard and shouted: "The marching Sima travels, don't welcome it quickly!" ”

Hearing this, the post guards hurriedly came out to greet them, and they did not dare to delay for a moment, some of them led their horses, and some of them ran to prepare hot water meals.

Mu Changzhou got off the horse, walked quickly into the courtyard of the post house with a bow, and said as he walked: "Prepare a room for Mrs., and someone will serve you to freshen up and change clothes." ”

Shunyin dismounted and followed, and saw a post guard galloping to do it, and then another post guard quickly came over to lead the way, and asked her to go inside and go to the room.

As she walked inside, she secretly thought in her heart, thinking that this trip was a deliberate shortcut to avoid people's eyes, and she would suddenly reveal her identity after reaching the boundary of Ganzhou.

Mu Changzhou obviously wanted to take it by surprise.

The post house was full of people on their backs, and soon two maidservants came, waiting for Shunyin to freshen up and change clothes in the upper room, and dress up.

Just after finishing the work, there were already bow guards to pass the word, and I don't know if Mu Changzhou specially ordered it, and the voice was loud outside the upper room: "Madam, the military secretary is invited!" ”

Shun Yin thought that someone was coming, he didn't wear a hat, opened the door and went out, and when he arrived in the courtyard of the post house, the sun was high, and Mu Changzhou was standing in the daylight, waiting.

He also rested and freshened up, changed into a dark robe, tied up the sleeves and waist, and the matching knife on the belt around his waist had been removed, and he handed it to the archers behind him along with the longbow, which looked just the appearance of an official on an ordinary trip.

The others also reorganized their outfits, Zhang Junfeng wore a green shirt and official robe, and Hu Xiao'er also changed into a military uniform, and even the head of the head was newly changed.

Shun Yin walked over and stood on the left side of Mu Changzhou.

He glanced at her, looked at her new skirt, paused on her face with red eyebrows and red lips, and said, "An Qingui, the governor of Ganzhou, is in this city, and since we have revealed our identity, I expect him to send someone soon." ”

Shun Yin understood why he came directly to this small city, it turned out that the governor of Ganzhou was not in Ganzhou City, which was still far away, it was here, and it was much closer to Liangzhou. Then I thought about it, no wonder the soldiers and horses of Ganzhou went to Liangzhou to make things come and go so quickly, and eighty percent were also sent out from here.

Outside the courtyard has come to the fast horse, a group of soldiers and horses hurried to arrive, after dismounting a few people walked in quickly, the general led by the general repeatedly to Mu Changzhou to see the salute and confess: "The military secretary forgives, the military secretary forgives the crime, I don't know that the military department suddenly visited, it is really damned, the carriage and horses have been prepared, please move to the city hall." ”

Mu Changzhou asked, "Where is Andudu?" ”

The general said, "I'm waiting in the pavilion." ”

Mu Changzhou nodded: "According to the order of the governor, according to the custom, bring the officials of Liangzhou to check the military affairs, and ask the governor of Ganzhou to come and lead the way, and enter the camp immediately." ”

The general seemed to hesitate for a moment, and asked respectfully: "Can the military secretary enter the hall to rest before checking?" ”

Mu Changzhou said: "I am waiting here for Andutu, just for a moment. ”

The general looked at his face, immediately said no more, immediately went out and got on the horse, and hurried back to report.

Seeing that they were all gone, and there were no outsiders around, Zhang Junfeng said on the side: "The military secretary is here today, but I am afraid that they will be caught off guard, and I expect that there will be a drama to be performed." Glancing at Shunyin, he still felt that it was inappropriate to take her.

Mu Changzhou said: "Adapt. After speaking, he glanced back at Shunyin, and his eyes were like hints.

Shunyin was silent, just reminding her of the previous "discussion" and wanting her to fully cooperate and help.

Before it was a moment, the sound of horses' hooves came from afar.

Shunyin raised his eyes to see, a group of people came from outside the courtyard, and after stopping, they walked into the post house one after another, led by a burly military general in his forties, with a round face and short beard, and luxurious robes.

"The military division has worked hard so far, and he has not been able to meet him from afar, which is disrespectful and disrespectful." An Qingui saluted Mu Changzhou and looked polite, but he didn't even raise his hand much, and turned around to ask the generals behind him to salute.

He was followed by a military general, in his thirties, his skin color and hair color were slightly lighter than ordinary people, obviously a Hu person, when he saw Mu Changzhou, his face was not good, and he did not raise his hand to salute.

Mu Changzhou only glanced at the other party, and said to An Qingui: "Governor An Du doesn't have to be polite, the chief has an order, I only checked the military affairs on this trip, and I returned after the inspection." Saying that, he glanced at Shunyin beside him, "I came with my wife, and I didn't have the heart to delay too much." ”

Shun Yin stood on the side, looking down at the ground, looking like she was shy, and she was already very cooperative.

An Qingui glanced at Shun Yin and said with a smile: "I heard that the military secretary married a noble daughter from Chang'an, it seems that it is really a good match." Since this is the case, let's go and investigate, the military secretary is the person who says nothing in front of the governor, how dare he disobey. As he spoke, he waved his hand twice towards the outside of the courtyard, "Get ready, according to the order of the military director, and immediately set off to check the nearby military camp." ”

It was suddenly busy outside, and Zhang Junfeng also ordered the archers to bring their horses.

The surroundings were noisy, Shun Yin walked away a few steps to avoid, and two maidservants from the people brought by the governor of Ganzhou had already come over and saluted her: "Please enter the hall first to rest." ”

Mu Changzhou stood aside, looked at it, and bowed slightly.

Shun Yin glanced at him, and didn't know what his arrangements were, but it seemed that he didn't need to accompany him to the camp today, so he went out with them first.

A carriage was prepared on the road outside, and when Shunyin sat in the carriage, several archers followed and followed behind the carriage.

She picked up the window lattice curtain and looked outside, and soon the people outside were ready, and Mu Changzhou was already on horseback.

The cart drove out, and he also rode out, which happened to be contrary to the carriage she was sitting in, and the group went to the barracks.
