Chapter 322 I'm not borrowing a horse, I'm buying a horse
Chen Xiaobei handed the banknote to Feng Xiaoyue, "I only have so much."
Feng Xiaoyue looked at the bank note with surprise on her face, "You won't need so much. What I mean is that if I ask someone to borrow a horse, I have to give them some silver."
Chen Xiaobei shook his head, "You don't need to borrow it to buy it directly. Just let him make an offer. The sooner the better."
Feng Xiaoyue looked surprised, "Brother Xiaobei, what happened to you?"
Chen Xiaobei thought for a while and finally held back, "Well, you better stop asking. Knowing too much will not be good for you."
"By the way, please help me keep an eye on something. You should know about the arrival of 300,000 troops."
Feng Xiaoyue nodded, "I heard that I live outside the county."
"Yes, I want to steal someone from the military camp. You can help me find out if there is a suitable candidate. If you find one, go to Centipede Ridge and let me know."
"Go find someone named Cui Hongyu. Just say that I asked you to go."
After listening to Chen Xiaobei's story, Feng Xiaoyue nodded repeatedly and remembered everything in her mind.
Everything was ready and time flew by.
When it was time to say goodbye in the evening, Cui Hongyu reluctantly took Chen Xiaobei's arm. He didn't want Chen Xiaobei to go, but she couldn't say this.
Liu Rumei also tried to persuade Chen Xiaobei to ask him whether he would give up going to the capital because he did not know martial arts, but Chen Xiaobei insisted on going. He wanted to see what kind of thing this Imperial Master Sun Yuliang was, and he also wanted to kill Zhu Meng with his own hands.
.
As night fell, Chen Xiaobei and his group of eight prepared, quietly descended to Centipede Ridge and disappeared into the night.
Watching them go away, Cui Hongyu stood there without moving for a long time.
Chen Ziyan came over, took his arm and persuaded softly, "Let's go back, and there will be good news."
After standing for a while, Cui Hongyu finally walked back to the room.
At this time, the ancestor also called all the men in Hetou Village together.
He walked a few steps in front of the crowd on crutches, "Today I put my ugly words first. If anyone dares to do anything against the clan again, don't blame me for turning against you."
"Chen Sanqiu will no longer be the son of our Chen family."
After saying that, he raised his head and looked at everyone present, "From now on, everyone will guard the door in batches. No one is allowed to leave even half a step without Hong Yu's nod."
Everyone agreed in unison, "Ancestor, please rest assured that we will never disgrace the Chen family's family tradition."
Cui Hongyu stood at the gate of Dazhai, looking at the scene in front of him, he couldn't help but burst into tears. This was the great trust his ancestors had placed in him, and he must shoulder this heavy responsibility for Chen Xiaobei.
A day passed in the blink of an eye, and that evening Ma Xiaoyi finally returned to the top of the mountain.
Looking at the exhausted Ma Xiaoyi, one can imagine how he got through this day and night.
Liu Kai asked with concern on his face, "Xiao Yi, why didn't Miss and the others come back?"
Xiao Jingyun and Princess Zhaoning next to them looked even more worried, "Hurry up and tell them if something happened to them?"
Ma Xiaoyi took a few deep breaths, then raised his fist towards Jamel Xiao and said, "Your Highness, Miss, they are rushing to the capital."
Xiao Jingyun was stunned, "Going to the capital? What about Qiao'er? Didn't you say you went down the mountain to save Qiao'er?"
Ma Xiaoyi handed the letter written by Liu Rumei from his arms to the prince. He also briefly recounted what Chen Xiaobei said at that time.
Xiao Jingyun's eyes were moist after hearing this, and a few tears fell down.
"Chen Aiqing is really the backbone of our Dacang Kingdom. He would not care about his own sister but must first help me put down the rebellion."
Princess Zhaoning next to her was also moved for a while when she heard this. She looked at Chen Xiaobei. She didn't care about her own sister. She put the country's justice first.
As for himself, he wanted to murder his own brother for the sake of becoming the crown prince. In comparison, he decided to judge.
Xiao Jingyun read Liu Rumei's letter and handed it to Princess Zhaoning, "What a good move. Let's hold Zhu Meng here and attract Sun Yuliang's attention. When Liu Rumei and the others return to the capital, as long as they catch Sun Yuliang, ten
If the princes of the road surround Zhu Meng, the crisis will be resolved."
After hearing this, Liu Kai nodded repeatedly. He clasped his fists at Xiao Jingyun and said loudly, "I can't believe that a small leader, Chen Xiaobei, has such courage and strategy. Eight people dare to launch a thousand-mile raid. This way to capture the thief first
To capture the king, even Lord Liu Hou would not have had such courage and courage back then."
Being able to compare Chen Xiaobei and Liu Xiangnan is a very high honor for Chen Xiaobei.
Xiao Jingyun thought for a moment, then took up a pen and wrote a copy.
When Princess Zhaoning saw this, she also wrote a letter and gave it to Prince Xiao Jingyun, "Send the two manuscripts together to Liu Rumei. There is strength in numbers."
Xiao Jingyun couldn't help but laugh after hearing his words. He knew that his sister's attitude had changed slightly.
Watching the carrier pigeon disappear into the dark night, Xiao Jingyun clasped his hands together and prayed secretly that nothing would go wrong.
It was getting dim the next day, and Liu Rumei and others had arrived at Fengjia Town.
This is the place where Liu Ziming and the others lost Liu Yuanwu's coffin. From here, it is less than a hundred miles to the capital.
During breakfast, Liu Lumei briefly explained the terrain around the capital to Chen Xiaobei and Huang Ying.
Chen Xiaobei frowned and thought for a while, "I think over there in the capital, entry and exit checks will be strict."
"Huang Ying, Master Lianhua and I will naturally have no problems. You Liu family members will have to think of countermeasures when the time comes."
Liu Rumei nodded, "Don't worry, we have a special passage in and out of the city to ensure everything is safe."
Chen Xiaobei nodded, "In that case, let's meet in the capital. We'll go to the back door of your Liu Mansion during dinner. If one party doesn't show up until the midnight curfew, something is wrong."
After saying that, Chen Xiaobei put down his chopsticks and called Huang Ying and the Lotus Master to set off with him.
After running far away, Huang Ying asked in confusion, "Brother Xiaobei is still a hundred miles away from the capital. Why are you so anxious to separate from them?"
Chen Xiaobei shook his head, "It was here last time that Liu Ziming and the others even lost Liu Yuanwu's coffin."
The leader of the Lotus Church raised his eyebrows, "You are worried that there will be enemies of the Liu family here."
Chen Xiaobei nodded, "You all know martial arts, but I don't, so I must ensure my own safety."
Upon hearing this, the Lotus Leader laughed. His eyes were full of contempt, as if he was mocking Chen Xiaobei for being a coward.
But Huang Ying gave Chen Xiaobei a thumbs up, "You are right. We really shouldn't pay a price for this kind of thing. Even if something happens to Liu Rumei, my senior sister and I will sneak into the palace."
Catch that bastard Sun Yuliang and hand it over to you."
Looking at Huang Ying who was full of confidence, the leader of Lotus was speechless for a while. He wanted to tell Huang Ying that he was still injured and his skills were not as good as before, but after thinking about it, he held back. Let's wait until the capital.
