Chapter 158
Wuwei County has a pass in the desert to prevent the Huns from invading.
Yuanli entered the city early in the morning and entered the county magistrate's office to escort Liu Junjun and Bo Langjun to report the attack on the Dayuezhi envoy in the suburbs.
Wuwei County Governor Zhang Haizhi immediately took people out of the city to the inn to find out the truth.
When Liu Gan saw that the county magistrate Zhang had come in person, he hurried downstairs to greet him. After Zhang took people to check the body, he confirmed that it was the Huns' work. He immediately took people to strictly investigate the people entering the city to prevent the Huns from hiding into the city.
County Governor Zhang always thought that Liu Gan had served as the governor of Anding County Governor because he was a relative of the royal family, so he had no good feelings for him. He settled everyone in the inn and ordered heavy troops to guard him.
During the chat, the governor of the County Governor Zhang discovered that Liu Gan was very talkative and not a bag of wine, so he treated him differently.
The next day, County Magistrate Zhang held a banquet in the mansion to entertain everyone. Liu Gan couldn't refuse, so he had to take everyone to the banquet. Unexpectedly, the Huns sneaked into the city and bribed a cook in the mansion and poisoned the wine.
Qiu Zijun said that he could not drink alcohol during this trip, and then looked at Bo Langjun and others. If he didn't drink alcohol, who would dare to drink?
County Magistrate Zhang had no choice but to ask someone to withdraw the wine, but never thought that a chef would drink a drink with great wine, and even stole a glass, but died of bleeding from the mouth and nose.
After the housekeeper investigated, he was shocked. He did not dare to hide the matter and hurried to the living room to report to the county magistrate Zhang.
County Magistrate Zhang was stunned. He ordered the housekeeper and the chief guard to secretly find out the matter, but he was not allowed to make a statement.
When Bo Langjun saw the expression of the county magistrate Zhang, he inferred that something big happened in the mansion. He then hinted that Jiang Yu went to investigate. Jiang Yu was also very surprised to learn the truth. He secretly glad that everyone had not drunk alcohol, otherwise they would not be able to escape death.
Jung Jong-gun Zhang looked absent-minded and did not have any worries to greet everyone, so the banquet ended soon.
Bo Langjun was also secretly shocked when he heard Jiang Yu's report. He told Liu Gan about this.
Liu Gan pondered for a while and said, "Since we have nothing to do, there is no need to pursue it! County Governor Zhang must not think we have something to do! He will find out! Let's set off quickly!"
Bo Langjun also knew that this matter had nothing to do with the governor of County Zhang, and it was probably caused by the Huns, so he no longer mentioned this matter.
County Governor Zhang felt uneasy because of the matter. So he sent a team of men to escort Bo Langjun and others to Ganzhou.
Bo Langjun sat in the carriage and wondered how to wipe out all the Huns who sneaked into the Han territory.
The poisoning incident at the banquet made Bo Langjun feel anxious. He has been paying special attention to his diet since he was a child and carried silver needles to test the poison. He must have tried this poisonous wine, but what about the others? Bo Langjun couldn't help but sleep in a mess on Luo Jiaojiao, who was leaning against him. He couldn't let her have something to do, so the most urgent task was to abandon this force as soon as possible.
Six carriages were moving quickly along the border road. But they were soon intercepted by the border soldiers.
Liu Gan got off the carriage and asked what happened? The deputy general of Lu from the border said that he wanted to inspect the personnel in the carriage. They received a letter from the Zuoxian King of the Huns, saying that the magistrate of Anding County kidnapped their princess. If they did not handle this matter well, the Huns would definitely go to war with the Han Dynasty.
Liu Gan didn't know how to deal with this matter, so he felt sweat on his forehead. He could neither say that the Hun Princess was in his convoy nor that she was not there. He was in a dilemma for a moment and could not do anything.
"We invite the Xiongnu princess to go to the Great Yuezhi together, not kidnapped!" Bo Langjun came out of the carriage and said loudly.
"We have to hear what the Hun Princess said about this!" Deputy General Lu looked at Bo Langjun.
"Go and ask the Hun Princess to get off the car!" Bo Langjun ordered Jiang Yu.
"Yes!" After Jiang Yu gave a gift, he walked towards Qiu Zijun's carriage.
The Hun princess had heard the words of Deputy General Lu and Bo Langjun. When she saw Jiang Yu coming to the carriage, she got off the car and followed him to the front.
"Are you the Hun Princess?" Deputy General Lu of the Bianguan looked up and down and asked.
"yes!"
The Hun Princess didn't like Deputy General Lu's suspicious eyes. She squinted her eyes proudly at him.
"Did you voluntarily go with them to the Great Yuezhi?" Deputy General Lu asked as usual. Everyone in the carriage began to get nervous. The charge of kidnapping the Hun princess was quite serious!
The Hun Princess turned her head and glanced at Jiang Yu, who was not squinting, and said, "Please tell my brother Wang, I will go to Dayuezhi to check it out and go back! Let him not worry about me!"
Bo Langjun let go of his heart after hearing the words of the Hun Princess. He bet that the Hun Princess would not let Jiang Yu die because the people who went to capture her were Jiang Yu and Qiu Zijun. She would not rekindle the war on the border and cause disaster because of herself.
The carriage convoy moved slowly again. Jiang Yu was sitting in the carriage with a whip in his hand. He had already felt the intention of the Hun Princess. After she said this today, it would be impossible for her to go back to the Huns, otherwise her brother would not let her go. So what should I do in the future? Where can she go?
A wave of sand surged, causing Jiang Yu to calm down and concentrate on driving.
After the chariots and horses were covered with a layer of sand after being attacked by wind and sand.
It was noon, and Jiang Yu stopped the carriage in a small fishing village by the river.
The children in the village had never seen so many carriages. They were running around and behind the carriages, watching secretly.
There was no tavern in the village. A middle-aged man in his forties walked towards Jiang Yu. He said he was the Lizheng in the village and asked Jiang Yu and others to visit his house.
Jiang Yu came to Bo Langjun's carriage and asked for instructions. Bo Langjun said, "Yes!"
Everyone got off the carriage and followed Li to his yard. The yard was clean and tidy and quite spacious. Li was cooking by himself, and Qiuzijun also went to the kitchen to help cook two dishes.
The shrimp, crabs, fish and turtles in the river have a fishy smell, but somehow it is very delicious.
Bo Langjun naturally did not eat these things, and only ate some vegetables and boiled meat slices.
Luo Jiaojiao likes to eat shrimps and crabs. She is not picky about food and eats very happily.
The sun is fierce in the afternoon, so the little husband asked everyone to take a break before leaving.
The farmer did not have good tea to entertain them. Bo Langjun asked Jiang Yu to get some tea they brought with him.
Sitting under the shade of the tree in the farmhouse, listening to the tied dog barking wildly, watching the cat jumping up and down with its flexible posture and the occasional "meow" sound that it turned back, Luo Jiaojiao felt very interesting.
Jiang Yu helped to carry water and chop firewood, as if these things were extremely easy for him.
Qiu Zijun also sat in the lounge chair and slept soundly. He looked at the Hun princess all day long, and the tense nerve finally relaxed. Liu Qian took off his robe and covered him.
The dog suddenly stopped his "woof" and suddenly became quiet. Only when the wind occasionally blew across the treetops, it made a slight sound.
Bo Langjun also closed his eyes and enjoyed this moment of tranquility. He was running around all the way, and his terrified anxiety seemed to no longer exist. This quiet life is really good!
Bo Langjun opened his eyes slightly and looked at Luo Jiaojiao, who was squatting beside the pile of firewood and watching the lazy cat basking in the sun and closing his eyes.
She seemed to be interested in everything, and she had a smile on her face all day long. Don’t she know how to worry? Bo Langjun looked at Luo Jiaojiao’s happy smile and felt a smile.
This woman is really interesting. I wonder if she will be like this when she gets married. Thinking of this, the smile on Bo Langjun's face disappeared immediately, and a kind of irritability filled his heart.
"Jiang Yu! Get ready to set off!"
Bo Langjun's words forced everyone to get up. The sleepy Hun spy behind a tree outside the yard also opened his eyes to report, but turned around and bumped into a child.
With a "wow", the child who fell down started to cry. The spy ran away, but was stopped by the two guards at the gate of the courtyard.
