The nephew of the Guo family was stunned. He looked up at the bird in the sky and murmured: "Fairy? Monster?"
Mingwei landed on the wooden bird and glanced at him: "Mr. Guo, did your nephew have his head caught in the door?"
Just now, Guo Xu thought he was about to play. He touched his frightened chest, looked at Mingwei's appearance, and asked curiously: "Aren't you... the concubine next to Yang San? Why are you here?"
Mingwei frowned and pulled the rope back.
"Ouch!" Guo Xu was thrown to the ground.
"Can you speak? Why don't you, Prime Minister!"
Guo Xu was confused. What did he say wrong?
The nephew reminded in a low voice: "Uncle Six, I heard that General Zong was very polite to this girl..."
Mingwei went to stir things up, and both Zong Xu and Liang Zhang got information about this matter. The news was sent directly to the emperor, but the emperor did not disclose the inside story out of subtle psychology, so
Guo Xu didn't know who Mingwei was.
Mr. Guo Xiangye is a smart man, but he has a great weakness: he is a womanizer. And another shortcoming caused by his womanizer is that he looks down on women.
Although he has all kinds of shortcomings, he can judge the situation well! If someone can fly, he is not someone to be trifled with at first glance. It is always right to be polite, right?
He immediately changed his attitude: "What do you call the girl?"
"My surname is Ming."
"It turns out to be Miss Ming. Thank you for your help earlier."
"polite."
Guo Xu looked at the big wooden bird and was very interested: "What is this? Can it fly?"
This place was so cold that Mingwei didn't bother to chat with him and asked directly: "Why are you here?"
The nephew of the Guo family replied: "We are here to save people!"
When he said this, Guo Xu stroked his beard just right, looking noble and upright.
Mingwei was almost amused by them.
These uncles and nephews have practiced, right?
It seems that the prime minister is also a cannibal, and he has to beg for food when he is down and out.
"Save someone?" She suppressed her laughter and asked seriously, "Save who?"
"Of course it's the general who saves the sect...and Mr. Yang." Guo Xu smartly brought Yang Shu with him.
"Just you?"
Facing her distrustful gaze, the nephew of the Guo family took action again: "My sixth uncle studied under Mr. Ming Jing and is proficient in Kanyu studies."
"Oh." Mingwei was really impressed by Mr. Guo.
The great Confucian scholars are indeed learned people.
Kanyu is commonly known as Feng Shui among the people, but the real Kanyu science is not just about looking at Yangzhai Cemetery. Kanyu is the sky, and Yu is the earth. The so-called Kanyu is astronomy and geography.
Avalanches are related to both astronomy and geography. Guo Xuruo is proficient in Kanyu, so it is appropriate for him to explore the path.
"Then what conclusion does Mr. Guo have?"
Guo Xudao: "The avalanche that General Zong encountered before was probably not large in scale. It just trapped him. Then he found a way to continue to the gravel slope. Unfortunately, he encountered several small avalanches on this road.
A large avalanche formed due to mutual interaction. Now the road is completely blocked, and there is nothing I can do."
He said this but stared at Mingwei.
Unfortunately, Mingwei couldn't get into his trap, so she said "Oh" and shook the rope in her hand.
Guo Xu had no choice. He was cold and couldn't wait to get an answer. He could only put aside the arrogance of the prime minister and asked proactively: "It seems that the girl is also a stranger! How is Mr. Yang?"
"good."
"Then...does the girl know the whereabouts of General Zong?"
Ming smiled and said: "I know, General Zong is on the gravel slope now and is besieged by 20,000 horsemen. He is in a difficult situation."
Guo Xu gasped: "Twenty thousand Huqi? How many people does General Zong have?"
"How many people can there be? The avalanche buried some before, and a lot of people died when we captured the city. After all, there are only three thousand people."
"Three thousand versus twenty thousand..." Guo Xu's face turned pale.
After Mingwei finished scaring them, she wanted to leave.
"Okay, you have got the news, go back quickly, don't freeze here. I still have to go back to Baimen Gorge to report the news." After saying that, he wanted to ride on the big bird.
Guo Xu grabbed her and said, "Girl, why don't you let your nephew do the sending of the letter?"
Mingwei frowned: "What do you mean?" This reaction was different from what she had guessed!
Guo Xu said: "Let me, my nephew, send the letter back to Baimen Gorge, and I will go to the gravel slope with you!"
Mingwei was stunned for a while before coming back to his senses: "Mr. Guo, do you know what the gravel slope is like? I don't even dare to say that I will survive. Are you, a civil servant, looking for death?"
Guo Xu said firmly: "Three thousand versus twenty thousand, you will only be able to hold on. Therefore, the most important thing is decision-making and logistics. With General Zong in charge, you don't have to worry about decision-making. Logistics is my strength. Change it to something else.
At that time, you will not have the opportunity to let someone who has been Prime Minister take care of the logistics for a mere three thousand troops."
This...makes sense!
"Besides, I am a civil servant." Guo Xu continued to encourage his sharp tongue, "You know, military commanders' reports are always questioned when they are sent to the court. But civil servants are different, even if they are political opponents
, the credibility will be greater than that of the generals. If you defended the city, would it be better for General Zong to report it himself, or for me to report it? I will exaggerate your achievements in defending the city. With supporting evidence, General Zong’s great achievements
, no one will doubt it.”
Mingwei touched his chin. It makes more sense!
"Miss Ming," Guo Xu could only resort to a trick and beg her, "for the sake of my willingness to seek death, will you let me go?"
Mingwei was amused by him: "Okay, look how pitiful you are."
It would be better if we skip the trip, it will still take several days to return to Baimen Gorge!
She told the nephew of the Guo family all Zong Xu's letter and the situation that needed to be explained, and finally threatened: "Don't make mistakes. Since I can come out the first time, I can come out the second time. If I find out
, if you didn’t convey the message properly, your uncle’s life should be paid to us!”
The nephew of the Guo family dared not say no and agreed repeatedly.
After seeing his nephew off, Mingwei got on the big bird again and said, "Mr. Guo, please cover your face. The cold wind in the sky is biting your bones. If you get frozen or fall down, I won't pay for it."
Guo Xu was overjoyed. He put his fur hat on tightly and wrapped his scarf over and over again. Then he tied his waist with a rope and climbed onto the big bird cautiously.
…
Yang Shu didn't expect that Mingwei would be back after being out for just one day.
And he also picked up a prime minister.
Guo Xu was almost dumbfounded by the cold, standing upright like a corpse in ice.
Mingwei called a soldier over and asked him to give Mr. Guo a rub, while he explained the situation to Yang Shu.
Mingwei didn't understand why Guo Xu insisted on coming to Gravel Slope, but Yang Shu understood.
"He just wants to take the opportunity to come here and take credit. He is really a senior official fan!" he sighed.
"It's freezing cold, come here to take credit?" Ming Wei was surprised, "We only have three thousand people defending the city, so he's not afraid of dying here?"
"Wealth and wealth can be found in danger." Yang Shu said, "Those who can sit in high positions in the court are no different from thieves who are willing to take risks. If he wins the bet, he will be even more prosperous than General Zong, let alone return to the political hall.
When the momentum builds up, and after some qualifications, it is not impossible to become prime minister."
"..." Mingwei was convinced, "Then I get him away?"
"Don't." Yang Shu smiled mischievously, "Let him grab it. Military merit is very important to a military commander, but too much is troublesome. When you are a teacher, you don't need too much anymore.
I have achieved military success. Moreover, I am temporarily in charge of the army and I need someone to endorse me." (To be continued)
