Li Dalang gritted his teeth as he listened to his subordinate's report. That guy who didn't know where he came from actually dared to leave his address blatantly.
Wait, what is his background? Since he can do this so confidently, he cannot be a simple idiot. What is his background?
The woman is from Qingzhou, not from here. The only people she knows are the veterans who have been treated by him, but this is my territory. If you are a dragon, stay with me. What's more, you are not a dragon.
I came to Feishui City under the secret order of the prince. In this generation, I have the highest authority to mobilize troops and horses.
Li Dalang thought about it for a while, and finally decided to go and meet that person. If he was a big shot, I would pinch my nose and recognize him, but... hum, Li Dalang sneered.
Sir? You are a young boy who is not over 16, 78 or 16 years old. Even if you are the son of some general, I can't kill you, but you guys who are just sitting back and enjoying the fruits of your life can learn a lesson from you.
Li Dalang did not go directly to the place the man said, but instead assembled a team of people. The armor was not put on, but the weapons were clearly visible. The two of them looked so friendly and cheerful in the restaurant, but they immediately became serious. This was the only way.
The temperament that is tempered on the battlefield cannot be reflected by those dandy boys wearing armor and a sword.
In the cold night, the group of people held torches and set off towards the small inn on the pier.
Pier Inn.
Just when Guo Jiayue was about to ask Chen Mo where he and Yan Yu went after they separated, there was some commotion outside. Chen Mo knew that those people were here.
Except for Chen Mo, several people were still a little nervous. After all, they didn't know how Chen Mo was going to deal with these people. If he really just relied on his fists to speak, he would probably expand the trouble to the point where one party couldn't accept it.
The door of the room they were in was pushed open without a knock, and Lieutenant Li appeared in front of everyone. Neither party was in a hurry to speak.
Li Dalang looked at the young man sitting calmly on the stool, and said slowly: "I don't know which lord you are from, but you dare to come to my Li Dalang's territory and openly rob people."
"I have no official position, but someone gave me something and said that if I have any trouble, I can go to the local military officer with the biggest hat." As he said that, Chen Mo took out a token from his arms, which was as black as ink.
There is a gilt word "WEI" on it.
He didn't know the meaning of this token, but the prince said that the fiefdom might still be a bit chaotic, and holding this token would save him some trouble, so he thought he would go on his way, so he accepted it for the time being.
I asked Jiang Nu what kind of token it was, but Jiang Nu didn't answer and asked him to keep it first.
"I wonder if your hat is big enough in Feishui City?" Chen Mo knew from Guo Jiayue's narration that this guy had a high official position.
Li Dalang looked at the token. Although his character was not very good, he was really thoughtful, otherwise he would not have been a captain in the border army.
He took the token and looked at it carefully, which immediately sent a chill down his back. He immediately held his token with one hand instead of both hands, knelt on the ground on one knee, and said tremblingly: "I see you, sir, before.
My subordinate Meng Lang, please punish me."
The instant change in attitude stunned everyone in the room.
"It seems you know this brand, so tell me."
Li Dalang was also lucky enough to see it once. When he was a pawn, he saw it with his boss. His boss was a higher official than him, and he was respectful when he saw the token. Only later did he know what it was.
brand.
Although he didn't know why the person holding the token asked this question, he had to answer the question.
"This is the prince's personal guard order. The prince has eight personal guards, who can directly talk to the prince. At the end of autumn, there were many assassins around the prince. Four of the eight personal guards of the prince died. Your Excellency.
, you are the new personal guard??"
It's no wonder that Li Dalang would ask such a question. The prince's bodyguard is highly skilled in martial arts. This boy does have some skills, but he is too young at this age.
"No." Chen Mo immediately denied it.
No??! Then how could he have this token? Even if he didn't, his relationship with the prince is extraordinary, otherwise he wouldn't have stolen this token? That's even more impossible.
Eighth Guards, it seems that the token given by Jiang You is not only a symbol of status, but also a hot potato. With this token, you can be arrogant in the fiefdom, but it is not necessarily the case outside the fiefdom. Those
If people want to deal with Jiang You, they will naturally target the people around him. It is not a good thing to hold this token.
"What other orders do you have, sir?" Li Dalang asked carefully. Even if he didn't admit his identity, he was not someone he could fight against.
"have."
"Sir, please speak."
"I want to cross the river, the faster the better."
"Okay, I'll go and do it right away. The adults can set off whenever they want." Li Dalang didn't say that he would let his men do it, and he didn't want to stay here. After all, he came in a fierce manner before, for fear of being blamed by this person.
, if one day he accidentally mentions these things in front of that person, his official hat will fly off.
"Half an hour later."
"As commanded."
Soon, Li Dalang exited the room.
"Chen Mo, what have you done in these years? How come this person sees you like a mouse sees a cat." The old man returned to the table.
Guo Jiayue and his two young apprentices looked at him.
"Brother, are you a high official?" Shaoyao asked.
"No." Chen Mo shook his head.
"I just helped a person with something, so he gave me this token." Chen Mo shook the token in his hand, and then put him back in his arms.
"Have you really met the Border Guard King?" Guo Jiayue and the others heard the previous conversation.
"I've seen it." Chen Mo nodded, but didn't say much. After all, there are some things that are inconvenient to tell others. Not only would there be no benefit to them knowing it, but it might also bring some harm.
"Wow~" the two little kids said in envy in unison, and were immediately rewarded by their master with two bright heads.
Li Dalang's work efficiency was really fast, and soon someone came to inform him that the ship was ready and could set off at any time.
Originally, I had to squeeze my brains to find a spot, but now I can do it in minutes, and it's not people waiting for the boat, but the boat waiting for people.
The one crossing the river was a small merchant ship that had docked at the dock. Chen Mo and others took their things and arrived at the dock under the leadership of Li Dalang.
Guo Jiayue took Ren Ren and Chen Mo's horse onto the ship first. There was not much cargo on the ship and the space was very spacious.
"Master, look, there is obviously a boat here and there are so many places. When we came to find it, we said it didn't exist. These people are obviously lying to us." Liuqu said angrily.
"If you talk so much once you're on the boat, I'll throw you into the river to feed the fish later."
"Oh." Liu Qu immediately shut up.
"It's good now, I can finally catch up with the New Year's Eve dinner." Lao Dantou said happily.
"Master, big brother, won't you get on the boat?" Shaoyao looked at the direction of the dock from the side of the boat. Although it was dark, the light of the torches illuminated the dock brightly.
"Come on, I'll be back in a moment."
At the pier.
"My lord, I don't know if you have any other orders." Li Dalang asked humbly. Now he wants to let this guy leave here quickly. He doesn't care about this woman or anything.
Chen Mo took out the token again and threw it casually towards Li Dalang, asking him to catch it carefully in a hurry.
"You take this sign back to that person for me."
"Ah?" Li Dalang was a little confused.
"If you're lazy, you can just throw it into the river. I'm in a hurry, so I'm leaving." After finishing his drink, Chen Mo turned to the boat, leaving Li Dalang, who was a little messy in the cold wind by the river.
The boat soon set off, sailing towards the invisible other shore in the vast darkness and biting cold wind.
Li Dalang was holding a token that was a little hot, and suddenly became a little excited. Although he couldn't use this thing to show off, but it was the prince's thing. He said he wanted me to return it, so wouldn't I have to do it again?
Is there a chance to meet the prince?!
"Sir, what's wrong? Who is that man? Why did your attitude immediately change after you saw him?" A minion asked in a low voice.
"Don't ask, there are some things that you can't know yet." Li Dalang suppressed his ecstasy and said calmly.
"Go and prepare a good horse immediately. I have to go out for something." Li Dalang ordered.
"Ah? Sir, it's so late, where are you going?"
"Hey, let me tell you, are you an adult or am I an adult, why should I tell you where I'm going?" Li Dalang glared at this verbose subordinate.
"I obey my orders."
"Come here." Li Dalang called another one.
"exist."
"You go back and tell my father that you need to go to Sanyang City for urgent matters. You won't be able to come back in time for the New Year. Tell him to rest assured that I will come back after the New Year." Li Dalang ordered.
"yes."
Li Dalang nodded with satisfaction. This is a good subordinate. He just does what he is told. After asking so many questions, he carefully put the sign in his hand into his arms and hid it carefully.
, this is an opportunity to get promoted and make a fortune here, you can’t let it be lost just because you accidentally left it.
Soon, Li Dalang took two of his subordinates, and the three of them hurriedly left Feishui City, which they had just returned from.
on board.
After Chen Mo got on the boat, he returned to his room and closed the door. Guo Jiayue even greeted him worriedly. Hearing Chen Mo say it was okay, he wanted to pay attention, so he didn't disturb him.
In the room, Chen Mo was sitting cross-legged on the floor. When he went in to practice, he felt the swaying hull of the boat and his expression was a little bad.
"Damn it, if I had known better, I wouldn't have eaten so much!"
