After handling the matter between mother and daughter, Jiusi seemed to have removed the stone that was weighing on his heart. He felt much more relaxed, and he no longer looked so cold and indifferent.
Among them, the most profound feeling was in January. The master who used to need her to tease her for a long time no longer needed her to tease her to laugh with them. This shows how much her state has changed.
However, they did not feel relaxed for long. As they got closer and closer to the border, things around them began to become increasingly uneasy.
On this day, a group of people came to a place called Mocheng. As soon as they entered the city, they were surrounded by a group of people before they even had time to find an inn to rest.
The people in the city quickly disappeared from the streets after seeing these people appear.
Seeing this, Yiyue hurriedly stood in front of Jiusi and said, "Girl, these people come here with bad intentions, and from the looks of it, they are probably even more difficult to deal with than those who ambushed us before."
Jiusi looked at the people surrounding them and replied in a low voice: "Of course it is difficult to deal with them. Those people before were just some young people who had hidden their heads and tail, but these people are all soldiers who have actually seen blood. How can they be confused with the same thing.
"
Another thing she didn't say was that her helping the emperor deliver food was a private discussion between the two of them. Not many people knew about it. How did those who intercepted and killed them know about it?
I'm afraid the emperor made some mistake.
These soldiers dared to stop them at this time. If the emperor was not worried about sending help, then they could only be rebels.
January looked at February with some confusion: "Since he is a soldier, why did he come to block us? Could it be..."
Seeing her questioning look, Yue Er couldn't help but rolled his eyes at her indecently: "We haven't arranged for anyone to come here. If you ask me who do I ask, how do I know whose soldiers they are and why they came to block them?"
we?"
January was about to say something, but April suddenly reached out and held her back: "Silence, someone is coming."
When the others heard the noise, they quickly moved towards Jiusi and protected him in the middle.
The soldiers over there were already on guard against them. When they saw them moving, they became even more alert. They drew their swords and shouted: "Stop!"
At this time, three people came on horseback from the other side. Before the leader arrived, he said: "Stop, we are guests from afar, not to mention those who are petty guests. Don't scare our guests."
"
Upon hearing this, the soldiers immediately sheathed their swords and saluted in unison: "General!"
When Jiusi heard the sound, he saw that the speaker was a big man wearing armor. Although the beard on his face made it difficult to see his expression, he looked like he was only in his twenties or thirties. He must be a powerful man.
Role.
However, if you are not powerful, how can you control this city near the border at this age?
You know, the border customs are very tough because of frequent wars and poor environment.
When the three people got closer, Jiu Sicai asked in a somewhat unkind tone: "I wonder what you call this general? What is the meaning of this move?"
The three people came near and dismounted. After walking up to her, they did not answer her immediately. Instead, they looked at her without leaving a trace and then replied: "I am Fang Han, the guard general of Mocheng. These two are...
It’s my deputy general Sun Hu and Xie Xun.”
The two people seemed to be quiet and didn't talk much. When Fang Han introduced them, they just nodded to her, said hello, and stopped talking.
Jiusi didn't care when he saw this. He nodded and looked at Fang Han again, waiting for him to give him an explanation.
When Fang Han saw this, he didn't make any detours with her, and said bluntly: "Girl, don't be offended. This general is just being ordered to invite the girl to meet someone."
When Jiusi heard the words, a cold light flashed in his eyes, but his face was still indifferent, and he asked aloud: "By order? I don't know whose order it is from?"
This time Fang Han didn't answer her, he just said: "I'll find out when the girl gets there."
At the same time, the soldiers' hands were once again placed on the handles of their swords. On the houses in the distance, there were even many soldiers holding bows and arrows.
The meaning is obvious, she has to go today whether she wants to go or not.
As soon as Jiusi saw the other party acting like this, she knew that she couldn't avoid this trip.
It would be okay if they were just these soldiers, considering their abilities, but there were so many archers surrounding them that they simply couldn't escape without exposing their abilities.
Of course, she could also choose not to go, but in that case, she would have to silence all these people.
But these people were not those who came to intercept and kill them secretly. Those people were not exposed to the light. These people all had official positions. Once they were all dead, they would definitely attract the attention of all parties, and then she would not even think about it.
It stopped.
Thinking of this, she waved her hand to Twelve Months, signaling them to step back. Then, she looked at Fang Han and made a gesture of invitation: "In that case, please lead the way, General Fang."
"Miss Lin is indeed a smart person. In that case, let's go!" With that said, he took the lead in getting on the horse.
Jiusi didn't need him to urge him. When he saw that he and the two lieutenants were on their horses, he also got on his horses, followed closely by Twelve Months.
Seeing this, Fang Han felt even more satisfied.
He originally thought that this matter would be more troublesome today, but he didn't expect that Miss Lin would be so sensible, which saved him a lot of trouble.
However, he did not dare to let down his guard before the person arrived. If someone ran away halfway, it would be bad.
And during the next journey, Jiusi could see how cautious General Fang was. Not only were there three teams of people in front of him and behind him, there were actually teams after teams of people in front of him to respond. In just half a mile,
The journey of an hour should have given that guy a sense of déjà vu as the emperor was traveling.
Now let alone January, even the relatively silent March couldn't help but want to complain.
Jiusi originally thought that this person was so cautious because he was waiting in the camp to prevent them from being dishonest. However, when they arrived at their destination, it turned out to be a villa outside the city.
She sat on the horse, pointed to the plaque of "Unnamed Villa", and asked Fang Han sideways: "Is it possible that the person you mentioned was born here?"
Fang Han nodded when he heard this, and asked her to dismount with a smile: "Yes, that person is waiting for you in the village. Miss Lin, please dismount!"
Since they had already arrived, it was naturally impossible for Jiusi to go back, so he got off the horse.
As soon as they dismounted, someone came to take their horses away from the back. Their orderly and calm manner showed that they had been trained.
She didn't know about other horses. The horses she and Twelve Moon rode were all excellent horses trained in space. Not only were they fast, but they were also in good health, and their temperaments were also first-class.
But when those people came to lead the horses, none of them lost their temper. Even her leading horse only raised its hoof in annoyance and was taken away in a soothing manner, which shows the high level of her skills.
