Nine hundred and eighty-fifth chapter Dagan mission
The light from the oil lamps under the house looked a little pale and cold. As soon as the wood was gone, Su Niang's expression suddenly became strange, and she felt indescribably lonely.
Li Luo couldn't bear it and called out in a low voice: "Su Niang."
Su Niang turned her back to Li Luo and looked at the figure submerged in the black outside the house. She trembled slightly when she heard the sound and let out a long sigh.
Suddenly, Su Niang turned around, blinked and looked at Li Luo. She immediately put on a look of regret and muttered: "Do you think I am too stupid? If I had known better, I should have secretly left a few pieces of silver."
, anyway, he doesn’t know, maybe he thought he dropped it on the ground, how many bowls of tea do you have to sell to earn this money?"
Li Luo was speechless and murmured: "Maybe."
Su Niang rolled her eyes at Li Luo and shouted: "What are you looking at? Why don't you go back to sleep!"
After saying that, he took off his clothes and threw them to Li Luo. He snorted coldly and said, "None of you men are good."
Li Luo took over the clothes, smiled silently, and said softly: "Why are you making things so difficult for yourself? General Mu has feelings for you, he is not an unjust person..."
"Don't you care about his friendship? I wouldn't be able to starve to death without him." Su Niang said angrily.
Li Luo touched the tip of his nose and said with a warm smile: "Su Niang, you are a person with stories."
Su Niang was startled, smiled slyly, looked at Li Luo as if pointing something out, and retorted, "What a coincidence, you are also a person with a background."
After saying that, he paused for a moment and then continued coldly, "I didn't ask you, and you don't have to ask me. We meet by chance. You and I are just guests in a foreign land. Don't mind our own business." After saying that, he closed the door and left Li Luo alone.
In the outhouse.
Li Luo smiled faintly, got up and went back to the woodshed. Not only was he tired this night, but he also felt a little sad.
As the alliance between Da Gan and Meng Jue grew closer, the originally deserted Xie Ma shop suddenly became a little more lively. Although the street was not busy with traffic, it was full of pedestrians, indeed more so than Li Luo.
It was a lot more lively during that time.
Li Luo stayed at Su Niang's place for a few more days. Occasionally he would look outside the house to see the passers-by, including merchants, prodigal rangers, and some martial arts masters who had concealed their tracks.
After a little identification, some of them were masters of Zhuocheng's imperial army, and the Privy Council also sent people here, but they didn't know that the ordinary man sitting next to the wooden table under the dilapidated tea shed was the King of Heavenly Ding Ding.
There are also some secretive masters who have blended into the crowd, and it is unknown which family members are here to inquire about the news.
Most of these people stayed for a while in Xiemadian and then left the customs. Xiemadian was just a simple resting place, but the real owner was Xiu Tongcheng, a hundred miles away from the customs.
The business at the tea shed was much better than in previous years. The wealthy merchants from all walks of life were spending generous amounts. Su Niang had saved a lot of money and was smiling all day long.
There are very few soldiers in the Longxiang camp these days. They form groups in the streets and conduct strict inspections inside and outside the customs, lest someone cause trouble and cause trouble.
Huang Tao came here once and told Su Niang to be careful these days and not to offend anyone from the world.
Su Niang didn't take it seriously. It almost went in one ear and out the other. She was still so crazy and not serious all day long.
Huang Tao sighed secretly and had no choice but to give Li Luo a few words of worry, asking Li Luo to help take care of him. His expression was gentle, and he wondered if Mu Guisai had something to say beforehand.
After saying that, Huang Tao left in a hurry and did not show up for several days.
However, Huang Tao's worries were overemphasized. It was true that there was a mixed crowd in Xiemadian, but the people who came to Yeliang Prefecture were extremely restrained at the moment. There was almost no fight or fight happening, and they were unusually quiet.
However, Li Luo also knew that this was just a moment of tranquility before the storm came. Since Xiu Tongcheng was involved, it was unknown whether Xie Ma Store would be affected.
The queen bee Qing Sang had not been back since her meeting with Li Luo a few days ago, and she quietly left seclusion not long after that.
There were several well-dressed warriors among the companions, and they looked like they were not easy-going people.
Li Luo thought thoughtfully, these people don't look like people from Da Gan, they look like heroes from beyond the Great Wall, with fierce expressions and looming murderous intent. Maybe the rumors in the world that the queen bee is inextricably linked to the horse thieves beyond the Great Wall are not groundless.
.
Xie Ma shop was busy, and Su Niang's courtyard was still as it was before. The three of them performed their duties, Mo'er studied hard, Su Niang took care of business, and Li Luo was reduced to a handyman, but it was good, at least there was no
Get someone else's attention.
The Dagan mission finally arrived at Yimachuan.
Before Prince Chun Li Chengye and King Hui Li Xuanze arrived at Xiemadian, the soldiers of the Forward Battalion of the Forbidden Army were already stationed here. They surrounded Xiemadian with their cold spears and horses. The soldiers on the horse were all in high spirits, talking and laughing informally, and were quite imposing.
The Longxiang Camp also separated a battalion. Mu Guisai personally led an army and came to greet the envoy from Dagan. Regardless of King Hui Li Xuanze who was entrusted with this trip, Li Chengye can be regarded as the immediate superior of the Longxiang Camp.
Except for the soldiers of the two armies, there were no pedestrians on the street. The passing merchants and travelers stood on both sides of the street, looking up and down.
Su Niang also stood quietly outside the house, looking at these solemn Forbidden Army soldiers. For some reason, Li Luo clearly saw a trace of ridicule from the corner of Su Niang's mouth.
I haven’t seen anyone come for a long time. The Dragon Elephant Camp is doing well, and the military appearance has not slackened at all. However, the Forbidden Army is a bit worse. Although it is better than the Long Elephant Camp because of its distinctive armor and well-equipped equipment, it is just that it has obviously not experienced the battlefield and is calm.
It’s still not as good as Longxiang Camp’s experience of life and death.
The sarcasm on Su Niang's lips became more and more intense, and she whispered in a low voice: "Embroidered pillow."
Some of the Forbidden Army officers escorting this trip were recognized by Li Luo. In the past, they were used to arrogant and arrogant in Zhuocheng. When they arrived outside, they were even more arrogant and did not even look at the officers of the Longxiang Camp. They were clearly different from each other and seemed to be different from the Longxiang Camp.
It was already humiliating for the soldiers to stand together. If it were not for the elite Tiger Guards and Fengwu battalions of the Dingbei Army under Prince Chun who came with the Forbidden Army, the scene in front of them would indeed be a bit embarrassing.
Su Niang's words about embroidered pillows are not without purpose. The Forbidden Army is powerful but not powerful. In the eyes of a leading general like Li Luo who has been in the army for a long time, he can tell his superiority at a glance. It would probably be better if it were replaced by the elite of the Forbidden Army under Huo Cailuan.
, but Huo Cailan will not leave Emperor Wanlong's side for a while.
Mu Guise sat upright on the horse, with a cold look on his face, showing no signs of happiness or anger. He only glanced at Su Niang, who was watching the fun behind the crowd, from the corner of his eyes. Su Niang seemed to be aware of Mu Guise's eyes, and made an annoyed face, which seemed to be true.
A bit like a little girl.
Mu Guisai's eyes turned cold, he patted his horse and took a few steps forward, leaving Su Niang on his left behind, out of sight.
Nearly an hour passed, with dust flying in the distance, before the large group of Dagan mission stepped into Xie Ma Restaurant.
