King Chenliu waited eagerly for half the night. As soon as the bullock cart came in, he rushed over immediately.
Zhou Luoling, who was dressed as a handsome young man in men's clothing, waved his hand and asked someone to pull away the straw on the carriage, revealing the box underneath.
The box was opened, and under the illumination of the torch, golden light suddenly shone.
The box is full of gold bars, one weighing sixteen taels. There are more than 3,000 gold bars here, a total of five hundred thousand taels.
"King Chenliu, my young master has ordered us to give you 500,000 taels of gold, which is just a little more."
Zhou Luoling practices special skills. When she wants to dress up as a man, no one can tell.
"Okay, okay!"
King Chen Liu said hello three times and said with a smile: "Go back and thank your young master for me. If you encounter anything in Chongyang City in the future, feel free to come to me."
Zhou Luoling nodded, cupped his hands and said, "Since the prince is sure that everything is correct, I will take my leave."
King Chenliu waved his hand casually. All he saw now was the gold.
Now that he had the gold, he felt at ease. Now he really had no worries.
Chen Yi on the side looked at Zhou Luoling's leaving figure, stroking his beard and thinking deeply.
Is this a servant? Something’s not right!
He doesn't have this temperament that a servant would have.
The kind of power that has been cultivated by living in a high position for a long time, no matter how hard it is hidden, will still be revealed inadvertently from every gesture.
Weird, weird!
Chen Yi noticed Zhou Luoling and couldn't figure it out, so he finally decided to send someone back to check.
"Chen Yi...Chen Yi?"
King Chen Liu called Chen Yi twice, but he didn't respond. He looked up at Chen Yi and shouted in an amplified voice: "What are you thinking about? Are you scared by all this gold?"
Chen Yi came back to his senses and said sheepishly: "My lord, it's true. I have never seen so much gold before."
Chen Yi felt that it was better not to tell King Chen Liu until the investigation was clear.
Otherwise, given King Chen Liu's character, he might have trouble with Wu Jingxian, a big benefactor.
With the gold, King Chen Liu was in a good mood and did not mind Chen Yi's distraction.
“Are people ready?”
Dangdang...
King Chen Liu threw back the gold bars in his hand. Hearing the crisp sound of the gold colliding, he said with a deep expression: "The situation on the front line is urgent. This batch of gold cannot be kept too much. It must be sent over as soon as possible." ⑧①ZW.????m
The Ming Dynasty has entered winter. If you want to fight in winter, you must prepare everything.
Alas! It was also unlucky. Yingzhao had the wrong time to retreat. If she had gone into retreat earlier, he would have done it earlier, so he wouldn't have spent so much money.
Chen Yi said quickly: "We are ready. We have selected loyal and elite soldiers and generals. Until now, they don't know what they want to escort."
Originally, it would be most reassuring to leave this kind of thing to the seven monsters, but unfortunately seven of them are useless, five and a half of them are useless. They are still recovering from their injuries, and it is impossible for them to do such a thing.
King Chen Liu nodded and said: "I am currently short of manpower, so this batch of gold must be well disguised on the surface and escorted secretly. There must be no mistakes in the gold."
Gold should be disguised as something worthless to avoid being robbed.
Secretly, we have to prepare some good hands to avoid accidents.
The main thing is... he doesn't have any experts to hold the line now, and all the experts he can use have been dispatched, so it's not safe even if he uses an army to escort him, so he can only use disguise to escort him in a low-key manner.
Speaking of having no one available, King Chen Liu felt a little bit itchy with hatred.
It was all Wu Wuyou, that bitch, who sent all the people out, making it impossible for him to use the people in Heiyuntai manually. He could only use his own manpower, and now there was obviously a shortage of manpower.
Sooner or later, Wu Wuyou will be solved...
King Chen Liu thought angrily, and then ordered Chen Yi to call people over to take action immediately.
No one knows the existence of this batch of gold yet, and his palace is not a piece of iron. In order to avoid the leakage of the news, there were long nights and many dreams, so King Chenliu almost didn't stop and had people escort this batch of gold.
It was exactly as Wu Zhongxian expected.
At this time, Wu Zhongxian looked at Wuyetian, who was wearing night clothes, looked into her eyes, and said firmly: "You have to pay attention to safety. If the situation is critical, I can take away the gold, but you must come back. Everything will be done with you."
Your safety is the top priority, you know?”
Wuyetian was stunned when she saw Wu Zhongxian's serious expression. This was the first time she heard such an order before going on a mission.
In the past, she had been told to complete the mission at all costs, even if it cost her life.
No one has ever told her that the mission can fail and she is the most important person.
She looked at Wu Zhongxian's expression carefully. She couldn't see any trace of lying on this man. Instead, the tenderness and sweetness in his eyes were worried about her.
She had only seen this kind of worried look in the eyes of her younger sister Wu Mengwan.
After a long silence, Wuye Tiancai nodded and said, "Yes!"
After saying that, Wu Mengwan turned around and left.
She didn't dare to say anything more. She didn't know what was going on with her. Her heart was beating so wildly just now. She was afraid that what she said would go against her original intention, so she could only say yes and leave.
When leaving Chongyang City from Prince Chenliu's Mansion, the closest ones are the East City Gate and South City Gate, and the farthest are the West City Gate and North City Gate.
The direction of the Ming Dynasty is in the north. It is easier to start from the North City Gate. If you start from other places, you have to take a detour for a day. After all, the capital of the Qin Dynasty is not that big.
Wu Zhongxian deduced what King Chen Liu was thinking. He was currently short of manpower and would definitely use the safest method, disguise and the fastest way.
Disguise can prevent people from taking advantage of the gold. The fastest way is to shorten the distance as much as possible and take a relatively safe shortcut.
The East City Gate is the closest to Prince Chenliu's Mansion. If any war breaks out, this is the way out for Prince Chenliu.
Therefore, Wu Zhongxian concluded that the East City Gate must be tightly controlled by King Chenliu.
If King Chenliu asked the carriage to pass through the East City Gate, although it would take an hour longer than the North City Gate, at least it would be absolutely safe to pass here.
The east gate belongs to him, and he can let the carriage pass without leaving any trace.
As long as there are no traces, anyone who wants to take advantage of him will have no chance.
Wu Zhongxian ordered people to ambush in advance on a shortcut from the East City Gate to the Ming Dynasty.
There is more than one road from Daqin to Daming, but this is the relatively shortest road that can ensure the passage of carriages.
As for safety issues, there is no need to worry in Chongyang City. No one dares to rob here, even on remote roads.
Of course, the most important point is that if you go from a small road and don't go through the official road, you can cover up people's eyes and ears. By the time those people realize that something is wrong, Jin Zi will have already arrived at the front line.
