This made Muchuan almost roll his eyes. Since he hadn't heard the news, why was Temujin so excited?
Others didn't know and thought he had found out the news.
However, it is almost impossible to find out the news about Kim, Hyun Bin and Li Chengqian through the most primitive "hearsay".
The reason why Muchuan did this was because he wanted to give it a try. It would be best if he could detect it. If he couldn't, it would be okay.
"Dali, sit down and have something to eat."
"Mr. Mu... I don't have to, I will continue to find out information for you."
After Temujin finished speaking vigorously, he left again.
Muchuan immediately stopped Temujin vigorously. This kid was obviously very smart, but sometimes he was just one-brained.
"There's no need to pry, Dali. Eat something to fill your stomach first, otherwise you won't have the energy to go on the road! As for pleading for information, I have another way."
"Master, is there anything you can do?"
"Yes, I have already thought of a way, so don't worry, just eat and drink well and we will be on our way later."
When Temujin Dali heard this, he stopped refusing and sat down to eat.
Later Muchuan also witnessed the meaning of a "gluttonous feast". Temujin waved vigorously and asked the waiter to serve ten kilograms of pork and ten cages of steamed buns, and he devoured them with tea.
Seeing Temujin Dali eating everything in just half a stick of incense shocked Muchuan's outlook. Even the big eater in the modern world might not be able to compare with Temujin Dali!
If Temujin vigorously created a short live video in modern times to show off his gluttonous eating skills, he would definitely make a lot of money!
But now, after Temujin finished eating vigorously, he said in a particularly embarrassed tone: "Sir...did I eat a little too much?"
"Yes, you did eat a little too much."
"Sorry princess, please be more careful next time."
"No need. When you are tired from traveling and traveling, you will naturally eat more. Besides, you are so big, it would be strange if you eat less."
After all, Temujin was very powerful and over two meters tall. He could reach Muchuan's thigh with one hand.
Besides, if Muchuan is so rich, is he still short of money for steamed buns and pork?
Seeing that they were almost eaten now, Muchuan ordered Temujin to vigorously purchase dry food in a nearby city and prepare to set off.
Next, after leaving the towns in Gyeonggi Province, you will enter a dense and vast grassland, and then you have to climb over six mountains to reach your destination, Dongyang County.
Dongyang County is a northeastern county on the border of the Tang Dynasty. It is connected with the Goguryeo Kingdom and has a large number of garrison troops stationed there.
If Jin and Xuan Bin want to take the crown prince back to Goguryeo, they will definitely pass through Dongyang County, so Muchuan plans to catch him there.
As for whether Kim and Hyun Bin could escape before Muchuan arrived in Dongyang County?
It is almost impossible, because Muchuan has already ordered the cavalry to rush forward to seal the border in advance.
The cavalry don't drive slowly like Muchuan. When they deliver orders, they use thousand-mile horses, and when one horse is tired, it is replaced by another. When one cavalry is tired, another cavalry is replaced to deliver the message, and so on.
Go on a journey.
Therefore, the twelve-day journey from Chang'an City to Dongyang County would only take three days for the royal family's cavalry to deliver messages.
As for the current border with Goguryeo, it is heavily blocked by troops and no one can enter or exit. Presumably Kim and Hyun Bin will not be able to cross to Goguryeo even if they arrive in Dongyang County.
And is it possible for Jin and Xuan Bin to kill Li Chengqian?
If possible, Muchuan hoped that Li Chengqian would die. If the crown prince died, Muchuan would be saved a lot of trouble, and he would only need to take a corpse back with him.
But in comparison, Li Chengqian was obviously more valuable alive than dead. At least Goguryeo could use Li Chengqian as a hostage to threaten the Tang Dynasty, so Jin and Xuan Bin would definitely not let Li Chengqian die.
From this, Muchuan's plan was to rush to Dongyang County and catch Jin and Xuan Bin in a trap.
As for rushing to Dongyang County, they had to go through a long period of barren land, so Muchuan asked Temujin to prepare enough dry food to avoid running out of water and food.
"Lord Muchuan, Lord Muchuan..."
Muchuan was dozing off now, dozing off while waiting for Temujin to return vigorously.
But for some reason, I vaguely heard Ouyang Bufan's voice, which was really strange.
Logically speaking, Ouyang Bufan should be in Chang'an City, thirty miles away. It is absolutely impossible for him to appear here.
"Really, could it be that I am too tired and have an illusion?
I actually heard Ouyang Bufan’s annoying voice.”
Muchuan said to himself.
But the annoying voice got louder and louder, even ringing in Muchuan's ears.
"Mr. Muchuan, wake up and get up quickly!"
Muchuan woke up completely. When he looked up, he found Ouyang Bufan appearing in front of him with a smile.
Muchuan was immediately dumbfounded and asked in a low voice, "It's you... Bufan, why are you here?"
"I'm here to see your lord."
"What are you doing with me?"
"Of course I have something to do with you."
Ouyang Bufan had a smile on his face, and there seemed to be some conspiracy hidden under his smile.
Afterwards, Ouyang Bufan told all the things that the Household Department was currently encountering, saying that the Household Department was short of manpower and everyone was so busy that they only had half a life left.
"So this is why you came to me..." Muchuan suddenly understood.
Muchuan himself was aware of the manpower situation of the Ministry of Revenue. He originally planned to solve this problem, but he had been busy with many things recently and could not spare the time.
"I understand. We will resolve this matter when we return from the border this time. Just let Mo Zhu endure it a little longer."
"Hehe, it seems that Lord Muchuan has an idea! That's the best. But in addition to the manpower issue, there is another issue when we come here this time."
"Anything else?"
Muchuan asked suspiciously, "Don't come and cause me any trouble..."
"No trouble! It's just a piece of cake for Lord Muchuan."
Ouyang Bufan then shouted to the carriage in the distance, "Come here."
Then two big men jumped out of the carriage, carrying two small wooden boxes in their hands.
After the two big men came, they placed the wooden box in front of Muchuan.
Muchuan asked confusedly: "What is this..."
"You will know after you open it and take a look."
Muchuan opened it and found a stack full of documents from the Ministry of Revenue.
Looking at these things, Muchuan seemed to be able to guess what Ouyang Bufan wanted to do.
