Chapter 793: Asking for help

Xiao Fengchai regretted her recklessness a little, based on her observation in the Dragon Court, and the fact that the Dragon King borrowed more than 100,000 cavalry from the North Court, she originally thought that Biyu City would soon get rid of the control of Jinpeng Castle, but what she saw and heard in Tongtian Pass made her feel less steady.

The dragon king's grain and grass were blocked in the pass, and it was difficult to move an inch, and the soldiers and refugees passed on the deeds of Prince Dotun by word of mouth, and few people mentioned the dragon king, as long as a person stood outside for half an hour, he would be affected by the street talk, and he was completely convinced that His Royal Highness the prince would be the future Khan King.

Xiao Fengchai was remorseful, but not to the extent of changing her mind, she believed in the Dragon King, and when the man coldly rejected her flattery, she knew that he had great ambitions.

It's like doing business, no one can accurately predict the rise and fall of the price, and sometimes, just because too many people believe that a certain commodity appreciates, the result is that everyone hoards it, and the odd goods become strange disasters.

The Dragon King is in a delicate stage, there are many people who believe in him, and there are even more people who don't believe in him, Xiao Fengchai feels that this is the best time to openly join the Dragon Army, it is too risky to be too early, and it may become an inconsequential "crowd" later.

She was not a gambler, but she was tired of the ushering in Liuren Lane, and after returning from the Dragon Court, she was also tired of Meng Mingshu's arrogance and stupidity, and the Meng family was about to cross, either in Jinpeng Castle or in the Dragon King, but her "second brother" was at a loss and didn't know it, and was still tossing that little bit of children's affection.

To be on the safe side, she decided to test how influential the Dragon King really was.

Xu Xiaoyi received the invitation and rushed to it immediately, he knew that this woman was not young, and when he was still stealing in the stinky streets and alleys of Nancheng, she was already famous and became the dream fantasy of countless men.

Xu Xiaoyi is no exception, the last time they met, the Dragon King was present, he didn't dare to show it too much, and now he finally has the opportunity to express his excitement that his dream has come true, "Mrs. Xiao, you may not remember, we are actually neighbors in Liuren Lane, and I lived next door for a while, I really didn't expect it...... I don't mean anything else...... Just to say – it's a pleasure to work with you. ”

Xiao Fengchai was used to seeing this kind of man, and consciously showed a happy and perfunctory smile, "I remember, you are Xu Yanwei's younger brother." If you don't leave people in the alley, it's not a good place, and you should never go back when you come out. ”

"Yes, my sister and I have the same idea, but Mrs. Xiao ......"

"I'm looking for you for help. ”

"The Dragon King said, 'In the future, Mrs. Xiao will be in charge of the financial power of the Dragon Army, and Xu Xiaoyi will be full-time in front of the saddle and behind the horse, running around to serve, and cannot shirk it', so even though Mrs. Xiao gave the order, how could she still say the word 'help'?"

Xiao Fengchai calmly accepted the other party's flattery, which was really commonplace for her, and even the reaction was natural, her eyes widened slightly, and her eyes stayed on the flatterer's face for a while, showing trust, but also showing surprise and condescension.

"Two officers came last night and said they were visiting, but I refused, and they were not very happy when they left. ”

"I've heard that. Xu Xiaoyi sent someone to protect Xiao Fengchai, and he couldn't pretend not to know, so he showed a very indignant look, "Bastard who doesn't have long eyes, two little centurions, dare to climb Mrs. Xiao?"

"It has nothing to do with the size of the official position, I have already announced that I will never accept guests from now on, even if Prince Dotun is here in person, I can't see each other, right?"

"Yes, that's right, Mrs. Xiao don't worry, I will immediately send more people to ensure that all the idle people are stopped. ”

Xiao Fengchai smiled and shook his head, "That's not good, it seems like I deliberately pretended." ”

"Uh, Mrs. Xiao means ......"

"The Dragon King and Beiting are allies, there is no need for me to have a dispute, so I want to ask you to go and say hello to the people in charge of the city, everyone is safe, and no one should refute anyone's face. ”

"No problem. Xu Xiaoyi patted his chest and promised, "I have to let those two officers come to the door to apologize." ”

Xiao Fengchai shook his head again, "You misunderstood, people want to see me, it's also a good idea, why do they need to apologize? As long as the door is cold, I don't want anything else." ”

Xu Xiaoseng opened his mouth wide, thinking that the four words "deserted in front of the door" were so scared that the girls in the whole southern city were terribly afraid, Xiao Fengchai actually "asked for nothing else", sure enough, the name is the name, but he couldn't say this, he bowed down and smiled: "I understand, everyone knows that I know and respect each other." ”

"That's what it means, the Dragon King probably doesn't want me to live in a crowded place. ”

Xu Xiaoyi retired, and when he walked to the gate of the courtyard, he felt that there were eyes staring at his back, making him uncomfortable walking, and muttered in a low voice: "What a powerful bitch, my sister can't catch up no matter how hard she tries, alas, it seems that I have no hope." ”

Gu Shenwei was resting in the room, pondering the possible surname of Dubu King who was still in Tongtianguan, and how to approach him, listened to Xu Xiaoyi's report, and asked, "Do you understand what she means?"

Xu Xiaoyi thought about it, but he didn't get the gist, as soon as the Dragon King spoke, he suddenly woke up, "The bitch surnamed Xiao doesn't trust the Dragon King, and wants to see what your relationship with the Beiting people is." ”

In front of the Dragon King, Xu Xiaoyi showed disdain for Xiao Fengchai, a bitch in one bite, Gu Shenwei had to remind him: "Xiao Fengchai quit Liuren Alley, don't mention the word 'bitch' in the future." ”

"Yes, yes, yes. Xu Xiaoyi agreed, but in his heart, he always wondered if the Dragon King had slept with this bitch, and when he found out that this idea was extremely disrespectful to the Dragon King, he hurriedly expelled it from his mind, and then thought that his sister didn't tempt the Dragon King when he took the initiative to give him a hug, and Xiao Fengchai probably didn't either.

Gu Shenwei thought for a while, "Are there many people who have the same idea as Xiao Fengchai?"

Xu Xiaoyi laughed twice, his duty is to collect intelligence, but he can't pick up nice words, "It's no wonder, the Dragon King borrowed more than 100,000 cavalry from the North Court, but only brought back 10,000 people, and Dotun nominally ally allied with the Dragon King, but he was slow to draw a clear line with Jinpeng Castle." But this is not a big deal, the dragon king sent troops, and everyone immediately changed their attitude. ”

"Well, what are you going to do with Xiao Fengchai's request?"

"Later, I will personally go to see the right general Shang Liao, and ask him to remind the generals of the Beiting Army and restrain his officers, and this matter will be solved, and there will be no alarm for Duodun. ”

"How do you explain Xiao Fengchai's identity?"

"From a good girl, you can't force people to regain their old business. Anyway, before the Meng family's gold and silver arrived, they couldn't publicly announce that she was in charge of the money for the Dragon King. ”

"But why does Long Jun want to intercede for a good girl?"

"This ......" Xu Xiaoyi regarded the Dragon King's question as a test, and his brain spun quickly, "Because Xiao Fengchai Congliang followed me?" After saying that, he shook his head, "I guess few people will believe it." ”

"I went to Shangguan and told her that there was another female soldier in the country of incense. ”

Xu Xiaoyi opened his mouth to stammer, and then laughed, "Good idea, I just don't know if Xiao Fengchai is willing." ”

"She'll be willing. Don't go to Shang Liao later, you go to see Mo Chu, let him solve this matter, and I'll go with you. ”

Xu Xiaoyi already understood the Dragon King's intentions, but he was also worried, "What if the Dubu King is really there...... Dragon King, it's not that I don't believe in your martial arts, but there are a lot of masters around Dubu King, and you ...... alone."

"Don't worry, you won't use force. ”

Gu Shenwei fulfilled his promise.

Xu Xiaoyi went to see Shangguan Ru first, and went into the city to meet Mo Chu that afternoon, bringing four of his subordinates, including the Dragon King after Yi Rong.

Gu Shenwei didn't even bring a knife, he didn't want to alert the enemy.

Tongtian Pass is not big, 70,000 soldiers are stationed in four or five barracks inside and outside the city, Mo was born as the commander of the whole army, but did not live in any barracks, but lived in a certain house in the northern city, unlike Dotun, who liked tents, he could accept the stone and wood houses of the people of the Western Regions.

The house is the largest residence in the city, there are not many guards, and the inspection is not strict, after the report, Xu Xiaoyi was successfully summoned, but the four subordinates could only stay in the front yard.

The other three are Xu Xiaoyi's right-hand men, never asking more questions about strange partners, concentrating on chatting with the guards, and not missing any opportunity to gather intelligence.

From the answers of the guards, Gu Shenwei learned that there were not many guests in Mo these days, and even the number of visits from his old subordinates was becoming less and less, and Prince Dotun not only gained the loyalty of young officers and ordinary soldiers, but also slowly gained the recognition of veterans.

Are there any more strangers in the house? The guards all shook their heads, there were only about 20 people from master to servant, and there were really strangers who could not hide from gossip.

Half an hour later, Xu Xiaoyi came out, and as soon as he left the city, he said to the Dragon King: "What an old fox, what do you say that you don't care about idle things, and the two officers have not done anything out of line, there is no need to make a fuss." I reminded him that it was all the work of the head of the Shangguan sect that he reluctantly agreed to the order, and told me that it might not be effective. ”

After speaking, Xu Xiaoyi asked in a low voice, "Do you see something?

Gu Shenwei nodded, the guards didn't lie, they didn't know anything, but several of the residences around Mofu had been emptied, and Mochu claimed that it was because the sound was too noisy, in Gu Shenwei's opinion, those places were the best places to guard secretly.

Gu Shenshang set off on the second watch that night, and kept watch outside the Mo Mansion for a full hour, and did not find any signs of a secret whistle, and after midnight, he decided to take a risk.

The guards of the Mo Mansion were already tired, and Gu Shenwei easily bypassed them, but he was still cautious and arranged many retreats in advance.

There was nothing unusual in the front yard, most of the people in the back yard had slept peacefully, except for one room with the lights on and figures swaying in the windows.

Gu Shenwei held his breath and listened quietly outside for a while, the people inside were ink, occasionally talking to themselves meaninglessly, not like there were others.

The lights went out.

Gu Shenwei thought for a while, sneaked to the next room, there was no sound in it, but he suddenly had a feeling that Dubu King lived here.

He took a step back, looked at the thin window paper, and hesitated whether to advance or retreat.

An arm broke out of the window, and without making a sound, the window paper seemed to melt in an instant.

Gu Shenwei had no way out, so he took this palm hard.
