Chapter 348: Interception and Killing (14)
"Gao Xian?"
was stopped by a team of costumed guards at the city gate, and Mu Sanqian almost thought something was wrong.
Unexpectedly, the leader was actually the son of the Protector Gong who was once introduced by the Eastern Emperor Taiyi, Major General Gao Xian.
"Major General, you'reβ"
Gao Xian led a team of freshly clothed angry horses and waited for a long time, but when he saw Mu Sanqian, he was surprised to find that he was full of silver hair.
"It's not my seventh brother, he knows that Lord Xiaomu is going to Xihe Prefecture via Xishu, so he arranged for me to come over to escort him. β
Although Gao Xian noticed that Mu Sanqian seemed to have changed a lot, he didn't say much, just said that he came to escort him on the order of the Eastern Emperor Taiyi.
"Your seventh brother is very well-informed, and there are probably not many people who know me in southern Xinjiang. β
It is naturally a good thing to have someone escort, but Mu Sanqian is still suspicious.
"My Xishu borders southern Xinjiang, and there has always been constant friction, and a lot of eyeliner has been planted in southern Xinjiang for the sake of border stability, which is also a helpless thing, it is by relying on those eyeliners that we know that Lord Xiaomu actually appeared in southern Xinjiang. β
Gao Xian explained with a smile as he took the reins of the horse handed over by his subordinates.
"That's how it should be. β
Mu Sanqian thought that it was normal to put eyeliner to spy on the news, and he had heard those generals talk about it when he was still in Disha, but the Eastern Emperor Taiyi actually sent the son of General Zhenyuan, the protector of the country, to escort him, and then looking at the dazzling outfits of these people, it was too ostentatious.
"My senior brother and I went to Xihe Prefecture via Xishu this time, because I couldn't go to Shudu to visit because I had important things to do, so I asked the young general to greet His Royal Highness the Crown Prince for me. β
"If Lord Lao Xiaomu is concerned, just by virtue of your relationship with Brother Qi, I will definitely bring the words. β
Gao Xian turned over and got on his horse, waved his whip to signal the guards to change formation, and turned around to prepare to go.
"There is one more thing, I understand the prince's kindness with my senior brother, but there is no need to trouble the young general. β
Mu Sanqian called Gao Xian to stop, blocking the city gate has attracted everyone's attention, following Gao Xian, the second ancestor, all the way north, I don't know how much trouble to cause, Mu Sanqian deliberately refused.
"Lord Xiaomu also said that there is something important to hurry to Xihe Prefecture, from our Shu border all the way to the north, just a lot of checkpoints will be a headache, with me escorting all the way can at least save a lot of time, Lord Xiaomu still don't shirk. β
Gao Xian said sincerely, Mu Sanqian also has some truth when he thinks about it, after all, it is not as convenient as having Gao Xian by his side to act in Shudi, except for some swagger in this battle, there is nothing else bad.
So after Mu Sanqian thanked him, he followed Gao Xian and a team of light cavalry guards through the city, all the way north, and went straight to Guangyuan.
The road is also smooth, Gao Xian, the second ancestor of the general Zhenyuan of the protector of the country, has a particularly good reputation in Shudi, and he has passed the customs every time, and he has not even stepped forward to interrogate, and he has not even stepped forward to interrogate, and he has seen the high-lettered banner held high by the light cavalry, and the defenders of the city pass are too late to hide, where is there anyone who dares to come forward to stop and interrogate.
Thinking about it like this, this Gao Xian is really notorious, but when the Eastern Emperor Taiyi and Mu Sanqian talked about Gao Xian, they were full of appreciation, and maybe this Gao Xian had its own merits.
After more than ten days of hurrying, Gao Xian's light cavalry guards went straight through Shudi, and Guangyuan was close in front of him in a blink of an eye, and Gao Xian stopped at this time.
"After Guangyuan, I went to the northwest, and after crossing the Aoki River, I entered the boundary of Xihe Prefecture, and the rest of the journey was only three or five days of horseback riding at most, and I sent Xiaomu here. β
The light horse stopped outside Guangyuan City, and Gao Xian said goodbye to Mu Sanqian here.
"Along the way, there was an escort from Major General Lao. β
Guangyuan is close at hand, after Guangyuan, you can enter Xihe Prefecture in five days, and the suspicions on the way of Mu Sanqian are finally put down.
Although it is true that having Gao Xian escort Mu Sanqian and the two of them can save some time, it is not necessary to do so, Donghuang Taiyi prefers to send someone to escort him, and he does not necessarily have to let the son of the protector come forward, which always makes Mu Sanqian feel a little tired, although he has some friendship with Donghuang Taiyi, but since Donghuang Taiyi has become the prince of Xishu, then thinking about things will naturally stand in a higher position.
Mu Sanqian, who had no clue after thinking about it, simply stopped thinking about it, if there was really something, he couldn't hide from it, so he simply didn't bother with that brain.
Mu Sanqian and Guo Datie went straight to Guangyuan, but Gao Xian did not leave, but ordered to stay outside the city to rest.
"Major General, since we escorted this Lord Xiaomu to Guangyuan, why do we still stay here and not order to return?"
The commander of the light cavalry guard is also among them, this person has a boxwood bow on his back and has the power of a thousand catties, and he makes a good spear, Gao Xianshi has long intended to arrange an official position for him in the army, but this person has no interest in leading the troops, only said that it is now a stable world, then he will stay by the general's side, if he needs to go into battle to kill the enemy one day, he will definitely rush to the front.
Now the world is indeed stable, this matter has been delayed, this time escort Mu Sanqian Gao Xianshi specially asked the personal guard commander to lead the team, Mu Sanqian is the world's youngest knower, the people sent by Qiyuan to intercept and kill will not be bad, if you don't send some trustworthy people to follow, where will Gao Xianshi rest assured.
"Mu Sanqian hasn't left Shu yet, so we can't go back so early. β
Gao Xian threw away the reins of his horse and gave it to his subordinates, and walked to a clean place to sit down and rest.
"Then we want to escort Mu Sanqian out of Shudi, why don't we stop when we only arrive in Guangyuan, and don't just send him out of Aoki River. β
The commander was guarding the young general with a spear, he didn't know what was going on, he was just acting on orders.
"Of course, Mu Sanqian wants to leave Shudi, but before leaving Shudi, there is still something he needs to do. β
Gao Xian thought to himself that along the way, just the guards and light cavalry of the Zhenyuan General's Mansion had made enough noise, and all the way through the pass was like breaking through the pass, which was even more attention-grabbing, if this was the case, those Qiyuan's spies still hadn't noticed, it could only mean that the money that Qiyuan spent on these dark pile eyeliner every year had been wasted.
"Is there anything else you need to do?"
The commander of the guards didn't know much about Mu Sanqian, he only knew that this was Lord Xiaomu who had been to Shu as a herald, and had a lot to do with the prince and prince in Shudu, that's all.
"Well, it's still close to giving people a beating, and after beating people, you can naturally leave safely. β
Gao Xian didn't think it was a big deal to watch the excitement, but he personally sent Mu Sanqian to Guangyuan, so he couldn't even look down on a good show with such hard work.
"Major General, you have confused me. β
The Commander really didn't understand what Gao Xian meant.
"If you know so much to do, you just have to watch the show. β
Gao Xian smiled, Mu Sanqian, the world's youngest man who knew whether it was true or not, he really wanted to see it with his own eyes.
