Seeing that Du did not forget to praise General Cai like this, Governor Zheng seemed to be sarcastic about himself.

Then he said a little unhappily:

"Feng Gongzi, do you look down on the prefect like this?"

Du did not forget to reply:

"Of course not, how dare I look down on you, Lord Prefect?"

Then he asked:

"Does the prefect have a topographic map of the area around Qujing City?"

Governor Zheng replied:

"Of course!"

Then he pointed to a map on the wall not far behind him and said:

"That's the topographic map of Qujing City Defense!"

Then he asked:

"Feng Gongzi, do you have any strategy to retreat from the enemy?"

Du did not forget to reply:

"Let's take a look at the topographical map of the outside of the city!"

Only to learn that this Qujing City can only be connected from east to west, and the north and south are blocked by high mountains.

Then he asked Governor Zheng and General Cai one by one, the number of residents in all the cities and the garrisons in various parts of the city!

Then General Cai took himself and Feng Niang to inspect the city, only to find that there were more than 10,000 people in the city, basically women, children and the elderly, and there were many children less than ten years old among the 2,000 soldiers guarding the city, and the food stored in the city was only for a week.

On the city wall, I looked at the bandits outside, and they were basically camped on the east and west sides.

Du did not forget to ask General Cai:

"General Cai, how many days do you think this city can be held?"

General Cai replied:

"It's hard to say, these bandits are not ordinary people, if they do everything to attack the city, we may not be able to defend it for a day, but then they will also lose a lot of people, if they digest us every day like now, we won't be able to hold it for a week!"

Du did not forget and said:

"Then isn't their current strategy just to let General Cai go out and surrender by yourself?"

General Cai replied:

"That's right, they probably don't want to lose too many people!"

Du Bu thought about it and said:

"In this case, Yunnan Mansion is less than two days away from here, I will rush to Yunnan Mansion now to find Qianguo Gong to rescue the soldiers, as long as you insist on not surrendering, I believe you must be able to hold this Qujing City!"

At this time, Feng Niang said:

"Didn't we offend the Duke of Qianguo last time, how could he agree to send troops here to rescue, besides, if he wanted to save Qujing, wouldn't he have come a long time ago?"

Du did not forget to reply:

"I'll find a way, Feng Niang, you don't have to worry, just help General Cai guard the city here, wait for my news!"

Then he took advantage of the darkness to go out of the city, avoided the bandits who were patrolling outside, returned to the place where the carriage was placed, and drove the carriage in the direction of Yunnan Mansion.

Unexpectedly, I arrived in the city of Yunnan in the afternoon of the next day.

At this time, there was still a quiet and peaceful atmosphere in the city of Yunnan Prefecture, as if they did not know that the nearby city of Qujing had been besieged by bandits.

Du did not forget to take the opportunity to ask the people along the way:

"You guys are so comfortable here, have you heard that the nearby Qujing City is about to be captured by bandits?"

Unexpectedly, this passer-by replied:

"You are disturbing the people's hearts, the Duke of Qianguo has already informed us that there are only hundreds of bandits around Qujing City, and they have been suppressed by the local garrison general!"

Then he said:

"The notice posted by the Qianguo Gong has also been notified, if there are rumors to exaggerate the matter of Qujing bandits, you can get a reward of five taels of silver for reporting, I don't think you are a bad person, so you are not greedy for the five taels of silver, you go to the city gate to read the notice yourself!"

After saying that, he left.

After listening to this, he went to the place where the notice was posted at the gate of the city to take a look, and sure enough, it was written the same as what the passer-by said.

Du did not forget to scold secretly:

"This Qianguo Duke Mu Shaoxun is really a mediocre and incompetent villain, if Mu Ying knows that there is such a descendant, I really don't know what it will be like to be angry!"

Then I thought about it, why don't I go to Governor Zhao Jianmen first and see how it goes!

It didn't take long to arrive outside the governor's yamen, but he didn't expect Zhao Jianming to hear that people from outside had come to report on Qujing's military situation, so he met with Du Yifu.

After Du didn't forget to see Zhao Jianming, he asked:

"You're Governor Zhao, right?"

Zhao Jianming replied:

"This official is exactly!"

Then he asked:

"Young man, since you have news of Qujing City, hurry up and tell it!"

Du did not forget to tell the governor Zhao Jianming about the current situation of Qujing City one by one.

Zhao Jianming had no choice but to say:

"Now the military affairs in western Yunnan are all under the command of Mu Shaoxun, the Duke of Qianguo, and I, the governor, don't know what to do!"

Du did not forget to ask:

"Governor Zhao, have you gone to discuss this matter with the Duke of Qianguo?"

Zhao Jianming replied:

"Of course I've been there, and I've been there three times, but I ended up eating it directly!"

Then he said:

"This Qianguo Gong, I don't know what his plans are, he just doesn't want to send troops to support Qujing!"

Du Cheng said:

"If Qujing City and Yunnan Mansion are occupied by bandits in the future, then the imperial court can't blame you, the governor?"

Zhao Jianming replied:

"Of course, this official knows that the matter is serious, but he can't help me as the governor!"

Du did not forget to reply:

"Okay, then can Governor Zhao take me to the Qianguo Mansion?"

Zhao Jianming replied:

"Of course!"

Then he said:

"But if you don't go, the Duke of Qianguo may not meet us!"

Du did not forget to reply:

"It's okay, I have a way to see him, I just need Governor Zhao to take me to his mansion!"

Zhao Jianming replied:

"Okay, then I'll take you there, you have to find a way to see it yourself, but don't mess around and hurt the official!"

Du did not forget to reply:

"Of course not!"

At this time, Du Buyi remembered one thing and said:

"Governor Zhao, you wait for me!"

Then he walked to a place where no one was, and tore off his human skin mask and changed back to his own form.

When he came back, Governor Zhao was startled when he saw it, and then said:

"Young man, are you going to change your face?"

Du did not forget to reply:

"Fortunately, it was my disguised appearance before, and this is my own appearance. ”

Zhao Jianming replied:

"I see, there are really too many masters in the world?"

Then he asked:

"The young man has been talking to you for so long and still doesn't know your last name?"

Du did not forget to reply:

"My name is Du Shilang, and I'm from Huguang Anlu!"

Zhao Jianming replied:

"Oh, Huguang Anlu, it seems that it is the birthplace of His Majesty the Emperor!"

Du did not forget to reply:

"Exactly!"

Then the two of them left the governor's yamen and went to the palace of the Qianguo Prince.

Du did not forget to find out when he arrived at the Qianguo Mansion that this mansion was actually larger than the prince's mansion where he lived in the capital, not inferior to the palace at all, and the surrounding area was larger.

After entering the gate of the mansion and walking a long way through several gardens, he arrived at the hall of the Qianguo Mansion.

After the two came to the hall, a maid came to entertain the two of them to drink tea, and Du Yi asked the tea maid:

"What about you Mu Gongzi?"

The maid replied:

"Childe is not in the house now, if the two of you want to find Childe, come back tomorrow!"

Du Buyi took a sip of tea, and then said to Zhao Jianming:

"Governor Zhao, why don't you go back first, I'll wait for Mu Gongzi here!"

Zhao Jianming replied:

"Okay!"

Then he said goodbye to the maid and left.

After Du didn't forget to wait for Zhao Jianming to leave, he walked to the garden and walked around, and the maid immediately followed when he saw this.

Du Buyi unconsciously turned to the door of a small courtyard, and asked the maid:

"Who lives in this courtyard?"

The maid replied:

"At this time, the old lady's residence, son, you are not allowed to enter!"

Du did not forget to reply:

"Got it!"

Then he turned to the side, and after a while he came to a place where the courtyard was full of pavilions and attics, and he wanted to go in, but the maid hurried over to stop him, and said:

"This is where the Childe's wife and the concubine live!"

Du did not forget to ask:

"Where does Mu Gongzi live?"

The maid pointed to the courtyard next to her.

Du did not forget to come to the gate of the courtyard to take a look, only to see that it was a splendid palace, carved dragons and phoenixes, and the degree of luxury was more than the Qianqing Palace where Zhu Houxi lived, and Du did not forget to sigh.

Then Du did not forget to stop shopping, and said to the maid:

"Since you Mu Gongzi is no longer in the house, then I will come to visit again tomorrow!"

After saying that, he left.

At night, Du Buyi secretly covered his face with a black scarf and sneaked into the Qianguo Mansion.

Because I was familiar with the location during the day, I naturally went to the main hall where Mu Shaoxun lived first, but after some exploration, I didn't see anyone.

Then he came to the hospital next to his wife and concubine.

At this time, I saw several beautiful women in the courtyard dancing, and then a beautiful young woman with a very standard appearance was playing the piano, and then a few maids were admiring it.

I saw that after several women finished dancing, they all stood behind the beautiful young woman Fuqin.

The beautiful young woman said to the group of women behind her:

"Sisters, why don't you jump?"

One of the tall women said:

"Childe doesn't come home so late, how can we be in the mood to jump again!"

The beautiful young woman also said angrily at this time:

"Xianggong is indeed getting more and more disagreeable, such wives and concubines in the family are tired of playing, and they still go out every day!"

At this time, several women behind him echoed and said:

"yes!"

Then a woman said:

"Yesterday I heard someone say that Childe is in Yichun Temple..."

Then another woman said:

"The day before yesterday, someone also told me that my son was in the Spring Lotus Temple..."

The beautiful young woman said:

"Let him go, he us off like this, and we'll go out to find a beautiful man!"

At this time, when the women behind heard this, they were immediately startled, and then the tall woman said:

"Sister Yunluo, it's not good for you to be like this, if Childe knows, he won't let us go!"

Yun Luo replied:

"Is it okay for him to go out to find a woman, and not let me go out to find a man, I don't want to care about these etiquette!"

Then he said:

"My father is the commander of the Bai clan in this Yunnan land, and there are nearly 100,000 soldiers under him, even if I go to find a beautiful man, how dare he help me?"

Du didn't forget to listen to it and thought:

"This Mrs. Mu Shaoxun turned out to be the daughter of the leader of the Bai clan, this leader of the Bai clan actually has 100,000 soldiers, if he can persuade his wife to help, then Qujing City will be saved. ”

He quietly stared at this Yunluo.

After a while, several people saw that they couldn't wait to return to Mu Shaoxun, so they all began to go back to the room to rest.

Du Buyi followed this Yunluo to the outside of his room, and secretly looked inside, only to see that she was undressing, Du Buyi quickly turned around, ready to slow down, but heard from inside:

"The one outside, come in!"

Du didn't forget that he didn't think he was talking about himself, so he ignored it, turned around and looked inside, and directly this Yunluo had changed his clothes and was combing his hair.

I only heard this Yunluo comb his hair and say:

"Don't look at it, what I just said is you, you come in by yourself, if you don't come in, I'll call someone!"

Du Buyi realized that he had been discovered, so he reluctantly pushed open the door and walked in.

This Yunluo said:

"Now that you're in, why don't you close the door!"

Du Buyi turned his head very embarrassed and closed the door.

Then he walked over to Yunluo and asked:

"Mrs. Mu, when did you find me?"

Yun Luo replied:

"How can you escape my eyes with this little effort, I have already discovered you when you peeked at me at night to play the piano!"

Then he said:

"You call me Yunluo, I hate when others call me Mrs. Mu!"

Du did not forget to ask:

"Why, don't all those girls today call you your wife?"

Yun Luo replied:

"No one will call it that tomorrow!"

Du Yi did not forget and asked:

"Why?"

Yun Luo replied:

"Because tomorrow I plan to take Mu Shaoxun off!"

Du was taken aback and said:

"Is there a woman in this world who has a husband?"
