Chapter 56: The Fainted Little Girl
If Lin'er wants to go to the border, she must rent a carriage or join some caravans heading in that direction.
Gu Lingxi then went to the inn in Luocheng first. After searching around, she didn't see Lin'er. She asked a horse-feeding guy, who said he had seen Lin'er.
"You're talking about a little girl, she looks about five or six years old?"
Gu Lingxi nodded: "Yes, yes! Do you know where she went?"
"She rented a horse from me. She didn't have any money and gave me a jade pendant. She said she would pay it first." As he said this, the young man took out a jade pendant. He hadn't shown it to the boss yet and didn't know if it was worth anything.
Gu Lingxi took out some silver and rented a horse, which was just a lot more. "I'll give you this money. Can you give me the jade pendant? Please tell her which direction she went."
The waiter was worried about how to explain it, so he happily took the silver coins and gave the jade pendant to Gu Lingxi, "She went over there. It seemed to be the direction of the border in the north. There was a war going on, and I didn't know this little girl.
What should I do?”
After saying that, he shook his head and took the fodder to feed the horse.
Gu Lingxi got on her horse, as long as she knew where she was going, "Drive!"
I am also heading towards the northern border, I just hope I can catch up on the road.

The army was approaching, but Ding'an Hou didn't panic at all. Old God Yun Banxian was here, so why should he panic?
"Is the robbery of food and grass you mentioned feasible?" Marquis Ding'an looked at the sand table and was thinking about it. Although he was not like Yun Banxian, he was familiar with military books and understood the art of war.
Therefore, he also understood that robbing food and grass was not a simple task, it was only worse than a head-on confrontation.
Yun Banxian was holding a tortoise shell and making divinations. He was calculating the divinations again and again. The Marquis of Ding'an even thought that something was going to happen and couldn't help but ask.
Yun Banxian waved his hand to reassure him and said nothing.
"Then what are you doing?" Marquis Ding'an looked at him busy, curious.
"What do you care about me? It has nothing to do with this war anyway." He was calculating the marriage for the emperor. After so many years, there was not even a prince or princess in the harem. At any rate, he had watched the emperor grow up, so he calculated
, not too tight.
But he kept calculating, and it seemed that the fate of this destined marriage was far, far away. Strange! Do the calculation again!

Here Gu Lingxi is chasing Lin'er all the way. She only knows the approximate location and has seen the map, but she doesn't know if she might have gone astray with Lin'er. After all, there are some unknown paths that can be taken. But she also
I didn't dare to stop, so I could only rush towards the border and pray that we could meet each other.
At the foot of the mountain, the general and his men secretly lurked and followed the soldiers and horses transporting grain and grass, looking for opportunities.
"Commander Yuan!" The soldier sent to investigate the situation came back.
The man called Commander Yuan was the soldier.
"How about it?"
The soldier replied: "Commander, they have plenty of troops and horses, and they are well-equipped with weapons. If we forcefully rob them, we might not be able to do it."
The soldier was talking about the actual situation. Commander Yuan himself also knew how difficult this task was, but since he was sent here, he had to find a way even if he had no choice.
He is very familiar with the terrain nearby. At this speed, he can be sent to the military camp stationed in Beiming Kingdom soon after moving forward. Time is running out! But now he has not thought of a good way...
The group had no choice but to lurk behind the grain and grass transport team, waiting for an opportunity.
"Commander, there seems to be a little girl passed out in the middle of the road!"
Commander Yuan hid his figure in the grass and looked towards the front of the team with only one pair of eyes. There happened to be a corner here, and there were no trees to block it. He also saw a small figure lying in the middle of the road. Look at the color of the clothes.
, just a little girl.
"Don't panic yet, let's take a look and talk."
Because the little girl was unconscious, the soldier had to carry her to the roadside at first. During the march, no one was interested in rescuing people, let alone the little girl who had no idea where she came from.
But when the soldier put the little girl down, her clothes were grabbed. After a while, the soldier took her back and put her on the grain cart to go with the army.
They were lying in ambush and looked full of doubts, why is this?
