Song Tuanyuan nodded: "Is it convenient? If not..."
"I can't say it's inconvenient. I used to deliver it myself. Once, General Qiu even asked about the recipe for the Gulu soup. Because the recipe you gave me was missing a few ingredients, I could only give a rough idea, so even if
If you can answer me when I meet General Qiu, maybe General Qiu will let me go when he is happy!" Song Xian said.
"Just say that I am your cook!" Song Tuanyuan said.
Song Xian nodded.
Song Tuanyuan tied up her hair, painted her face black, drew her eyebrows down, and had pockmarks on her face. She wore linen clothes and arched her back slightly, making her look like a country woman.
Song Xian glanced at him and smiled: "Doctor Song, even I can't recognize you like this!"
Song Tuanyuan smiled, but in her heart she prayed that she would never meet Qiu Jinhong.
This clumsy disguise might go unnoticed by strangers, but an acquaintance might notice it.
Song Tuanyuan followed Song Xian to the Iron Mian Palace to deliver Gulu soup.
The Iron Masked King was defeated before, and Qiu Jinhong occupied the Iron Masked King's palace.
At the gate of the Iron Man Palace, a guard stopped Song Xian from reuniting with Song Dynasty.
"Why is there an extra person today?" the guard asked.
"General Qiu wants a lot of grunt soup today. I can't move it alone, so I can only call my old lady to help!" Song Xian said, turning around Song Tuanyuan on the way, "Old lady, hurry up and call someone!"
Song Tuanyuan was startled, how could the promised cook become Song Xian's wife, but she still called the little brother.
The young man couldn't help but tease Song Xian: "Shopkeeper Song, you said your store is so big, why don't you change your wife?"
Song Xian chuckled: "The three treasures in the family are an ugly wife with a thin floor and a worn-out cotton-padded jacket. Without me, an old woman, I can't make a fortune. How can I dare to divorce?"
The guard nodded: "That's right, okay, carry it in quickly, it's getting colder and colder today, and we're still waiting to drink your Gulu soup!"
Song Xian nodded and called Song Tuanyuan to carry the grunt soup inside.
In the small kitchen, Song Xian handed the grunt soup to the kitchen steward, and then walked out with Song Tuanyuan.
Song Tuanyuan observed the guards in the Iron Mask King as he walked, and saw the guards walking around, but did not see anyone else.
When Song Tuanyuan and Song Xian were about to go out, the sky was slowly getting brighter.
The sound of horse hoofbeats sounded outside the courtyard gate, and Song Xian quickly said: "It seems that General Qiu is back!"
Song Tuanyuan immediately stood in the corner with Song Xian.
Qiu Jinhong was wearing black armor and holding a long spear in his hand. There was a streak of blood on the tip of the spear, and blood slowly dripped on the bluestone.
Song Xian was so frightened that his whole body trembled.
Song Tuanyuan also lowered his head tightly.
Qiu Jinhong rode his horse into the gate, took a few steps forward, and suddenly thought of it, he pulled the reins of his horse and turned in front of Song Tuanyuan.
Song Tuanyuan suddenly became nervous.
Song Xian quickly raised his face and looked at Qiu Jinhong with a smile: "General Qiu, are you back? The grunt soup you requested has been delivered to the kitchen!"
Qiu Jinhong nodded and turned his attention to Song Tuanyuan.
Song Xian quickly said: "This is my old lady, coming with me to deliver Gulu soup!"
Qiu Jinhong squinted his eyes and looked at Song Tuanyuan.
Song Tuanyuan quickly bowed his head and saluted.
"Why don't you speak?" Qiu Jinhong asked.
Song Xian quickly made trouble for Song Tuanyuan.
Song Tuanyuan quickly lowered her voice and began to stutter: "See you... see you..."
"Okay, okay!" Qiu Jinhong waved his hand, "Let's go quickly!"
Song Xian quickly took Song Tuanyuan out.
Qiu Jinhong galloped on horseback in the courtyard of the palace.
Song Xian walked out of the door and wiped the sweat from his forehead, "I was scared to death. I thought General Qiu saw the flaw!"
Song Tuanyuan raised her eyes and looked at him: "Thank you very much!"
"It's okay. I was anxious just now. I thought the cook couldn't be trusted, so I just said you are my old lady. Don't mind!" Song Xian said.
Song Tuanyuan shook his head.
"You saw it when you went in just now. They were all guards patrolling. There was no one you were looking for!" Song Xian said.
Song Tuanyuan nodded: "Maybe my friend is not here."
"General Qiu saw you just now and didn't ask any questions. I think he believed it. When I go to collect the pot tomorrow, I will ask him for a token, like mine, to wear on my waist.
You are safe in Gulu Town. When the guards see this token, they will know that they are working for them and will not kill anyone!" Song Xian took the token around his waist and showed it to Song Tuanyuan.
Song Tuanyuan nodded.
Song Xian first sent Song Tuanyuan home, and then went home himself, saying that he would prepare Gulu soup for tomorrow.
Song Tuanyuan did not dare to go out without the token. In the evening, Song Xiancai sent the token.
After getting the token, Song Tuanyuan immediately searched for traces of Ji Changan in Gulu Town.
Even if Ji Changan was arrested, Shen Lin and others would still be there.
Besides, Zhou Jingtian was still in Gulu Town at that time. Maybe if he found Zhou Jingtian, he could get news about Ji Changan.
Song Tuanyuan went to Zhou Jingtian's house, but the door was closed.
Song Tuanyuan stepped forward and knocked on the door.
Someone was looking outside for a long time before opening the door.
"Doctor Song, why are you here?" The person who opened the door was a steward next to Zhou Jingtian, who had met Song Tuanyuan before.
As the steward said, he quickly pulled Song Tuanyuan into the courtyard.
"Do you know that Gulu Town is very dangerous now? You can't..." The manager stopped talking when he saw the token on Song Tuanyuan's waist, and then breathed a sigh of relief, "It turns out that Doctor Song has the token, so it will be easy to handle.
Got it!"
Song Tuanyuan asked: "Where is the master?"
The steward quickly led Song Tuanyuan inside.
In the hall, Zhou Jingtian raised his eyes and glanced at Song Tuanyuan, and quickly waved his hand to let the steward go.
"Why are you here?" Zhou Jingtian asked, "Do you know..."
Song Tuanyuan picked up the token on his waist and showed it to Zhou Jingtian.
"You can't do it even if you have a token. Sometimes the guards act stupidly and kill people with tokens!" Zhou Jingtian's eyes darkened, "This Gulu Mountain is already a purgatory on earth!"
"Why would the emperor issue such an order and harm the people like this..." Song Tuanyuan clenched her fingers.
"He doesn't regard the people of Gulu Mountain as his own people at all!" Zhou Jingtian said solemnly, "Whenever he thinks of the Qing Dynasty, he only feels humiliation and hatred in his heart!"
Song Tuanyuan was stunned for a moment: "The Emperor Tianji destroyed the Qing Kingdom, why does he still hate the Qing Kingdom?"
"I can't think of it!" Zhou Jingtian sighed, "For a woman!"
Song Tuanyuan clenched her fingers. She naturally knew who this woman was.
"If you don't get it, destroy it, destroy everything. He has always been like this!" Zhou Jingtian sneered.
"Master, do you know the news about Ye Po?" Song Tuanyuan asked quickly.
Zhou Jingtian glanced at Song Tuanyuan: "Are you here to see him?"
