Those who know Chen Xiaobei find it incredible that a mountain boy has such a plan in his head, and he can easily pick it up when it comes to fighting.
Facing the envy of everyone, Chen Xiaobei was very depressed at this time.
Several days have passed, but the news promised by Jiang Shangpiao has not been delivered, which makes him very anxious.
That night, Chen Xiaobei asked the shopkeeper to prepare wine and food for him, and he drank by himself. Liu Tietian and Liu Ce, who were beside him, could only keep trying to persuade him.
Just then the shopkeeper knocked on the door. He came in with a respectful look on his face and bowed deeply to Chen Xiaobei, "Prince-in-law, there is a person coming to see you outside. He claims to be arranged by Mr. Jiang."
Chen Xiaobei's eyes lit up when he heard this, "Oh, let him in quickly."
Soon a skinny man walked in. He looked like he was from the Great Earth Kingdom. He stepped forward and bowed to Chen Xiaobei.
But after giving the salute, he stood there motionless.
Chen Xiaobei was stunned at first. Suddenly, he remembered Jiang Shangpiao's instructions and quickly took out the token.
After seeing the token, the man took out a letter from his arms and handed it forward.
Chen Xiaobei took the letter. There was a lot of content in the letter, several hundred words. It probably said that Qingguang City was not very stable recently, and there were still large-scale manhunts going on around it, but there was no news that an important general of Dacang Kingdom had been captured. .
See these. Chen Xiaobei breathed a long sigh of relief. He knew that if Liu Rumei was caught, it would be a major victory and important news for the country, and it would be widely publicized.
"Thank you for your hard work. If you can find any information about Liu Rumei, please tell me in time!"
The man clasped his fists again and said in the less fluent Dacang language, "Don't worry, Master has already given you instructions. I will come again to deliver the letter when there is news."
Chen Xiaobei suddenly thought and pointed at Liu Tie and Liu Ce, "I will leave this inn in two days. If you can't find me, you can go to Liu's house to find them."
Unexpectedly, this man smiled confidently and said, "Don't worry, Prince Consort Chen, the news will be delivered to you as soon as possible."
Hearing this, Liu Tie and Liu Ce looked at each other and were shocked.
However, Chen Xiaobei seemed very indifferent. As the saying goes, snakes follow snakes and rats follow rats. In this era, various organizations have strict rules for transmitting information. It is much more exciting than many TV series I have seen.
After sending off the messenger, Chen Xiaobei's mood became much better, and Liu Tie and Liu Ce also became excited. If there is no news, it is good news. At least it means that Liu Rumei has not been caught by the enemy.
Liu Tie raised his glass and looked at Chen Xiaobei and said, "Uncle, I would like to propose a toast to you."
Chen Xiaobei looked at Liu Tie and shook his head with a smile, "Brother Liu Tie, why are you so polite to me? You were my eldest brother when we met on Qingniu Mountain."
"Sister-in-law, this is not okay. One code is the same. Now you are the uncle and I am the servant."
Chen Xiaobei shook his head again, "You are my eldest brother at all times. I think Rumei has never regarded you two as subordinates in her heart."
When Liu Ce saw this, he quickly smiled and raised his glass, "Yes, brother Xiaobei is right, Liu Tie, I don't think it's better to do this. On those elegant occasions, in front of the master, we can just shout Brother-in-law, in private there is nothing more than calling us brothers and sisters."
After hearing this, Chen Xiaobei knew that this was a round-up, but after all, it was a good round-up, and both sides had steps to go.
After drinking a few drinks, Liu Ce continued, "In a few days, the emperor's marriage gift will come down, and the Xiaobei brothers will become consorts and have their own mansion."
After hearing this, Chen Xiaobei's thoughts changed. He has his own mansion and is a consort. Naturally, if he wants to leave the capital, it will not be as easy as it is now. He can come and go at will. What about Cui Hongyu at home?
Thinking of this, Chen Xiaobei gently put down the wine glass and frowned slightly.
Liu Ce was obviously a master at reading people's thoughts. Seeing Chen Xiaobei's appearance, he suddenly guessed what Chen Xiaobei was thinking.
"Brother Xiaobei, I know you are worried about the folks in Hetou Village now, and I can't hide it. I have sent people to Hetou Village two days ago, and news should be coming today or tomorrow."
After hearing this, Chen Xiaobei was very moved. He had to say that Liu Ce and Liu Tie really did what he meant to do.
"Thank you two brothers." Xiaobei raised his glass again.
Liu Ce was right. At this time, Liu Ziming and Liu Ziliang, with more than a dozen guards, came to Hetou Village that night. Cui Hongyu was overjoyed when he heard that they were coming from the capital and the Liu family. .
After Chen Xiaobei returned to Shuozhou, he just sent a letter to his family, saying that he would rush to the capital to find Liu Rumei's whereabouts after returning from the Great Earth Kingdom. Then there is no more.
Seeing Liu Ziming, Liu Ziliang, Cui Hongyu immediately asked impatiently, "Brothers, do you have any news about Sister Rumei?"
After hearing Cui Hongyu's question, Liu Ziming and Liu Ziliang were very moved. They did not ask Chen Xiaobei when they met for the first time, but anxiously asked Cui Hongyu. This was true concern.
Liu Ziming clasped his fists and said, "Miss Hongyu will tell you the truth. I have never seen any news about Miss Liu. We will come over and send you a message in advance. My uncle is safe and sound and is in the capital."
Hearing that Chen Xiaobei was safe and sound, Chen Dayong and others who were following Cui Hongyu showed joy on their faces. After all, Liu Rumei was far away to them, while Chen Xiaobei was the closest person to them.
"That's good, that's good. You haven't eaten yet. They just stewed a pot of mutton over the four acres of land." Cui Hongyu greeted quickly.
After hearing what Cui Hongyu said, Chen Dayong and other village protection team members came up to greet Liu Ziming, and Liu Ziliang hurriedly went to eat and drink.
While eating the fragrant mutton, Liu Ziming and Liu Ziliang introduced Cui Hongyu to the situation in the capital and some information about their trip to the Great Land to fight.
Hearing the tension, Cui Hongyu couldn't help but sweat for them. He also laughed heartily after hearing their victory and triumph, "Okay, okay, hundreds of thousands of soldiers and horses from the Great Earth Kingdom were forced to retreat. It's really amazing. "
Liu Ziliang said with a smile, "Miss Hongyu's happy event is yet to come. In order to repel the Great Earth Kingdom, the emperor once issued a decree. Whoever made the greatest contribution in fighting the Great Earth Kingdom will marry the princess. In the end, merit will be judged. It’s my uncle’s greatest contribution to the reward.”
"Yes, yes, my uncle will become the consort in a few days."
After hearing this, Cui Hongyu laughed out loud, "You two are really good at joking. Hong Yu knows some of the royal rules. If the emperor wants to marry his daughter, why would he marry a lady who has been married to several wives? people."
