"What?" Fu De looked unhappy.
"This is not a place where you can stay for a long time. Only when you leave Yizhou can you be truly safe." Lin Chu said.
Hearing this, Fu De frowned deeply.
Now that Lian Xiao's mother has been kidnapped, Huang Songyuan will definitely become angry and may put Yizhou under martial law. If he leaves the city at this time, he will put himself in danger.
He really didn't want to agree, but he had no choice, because he and Lin Chu were already on the same boat. After a long silence, he could only say dissatisfiedly: "I will find a way..."
That night, soldiers searched all the streets in Yizhou, but Fu De was not touched because he was a minister in Shuzhong and held a high position. No one dared to touch him without Huang Songyuan's highest order.
And it is impossible for the latter to suspect him.
The next morning, East Gate.
Yizhou is the capital of Sichuan and Sichuan. It is so prosperous. It is time to go to the market. As you can imagine, at the city gate, there is a bustle and noise of pedestrians, but there are soldiers inspecting them one by one.
The people lined up to be questioned, and some wooden carts pushing hay were poked back and forth with halberds by several soldiers.
Apparently, the state government had given the order.
Not long after, a luxurious and tall carriage drove from the city.
"Get away! Get away, everyone!"
As the coachman yelled and cursed, the people kept giving way. At the city gate, a soldier saw this and immediately stepped forward, raised one arm and said: "Stop!"
The carriage is Fu De's car, and the driver is Lin Chu.
Seeing the movement of the soldiers, he first pulled the reins to stop the carriage, then without saying a word, jumped down, reached into his arms, took out Fu De's token, then raised it with one hand, showed it to the soldiers and shouted: " You're blind! Didn't you see that it was Master Fu's car?"
At this time, Fu De, who was dressed in official uniform, also half-opened the car curtain at the right time, and said in a nonchalant voice: "Get out of the way quickly, I have important business to leave the city. If I delay, your lives will be at risk!"
Hearing this, saying goodbye to the token and seeing Fu De in official uniform, the soldiers couldn't help but swallowed.
But before he could speak, Lin Chu pushed him away with a palm and cursed unceremoniously: "Get away!"
He performed the "dog fighting against human power" to the extreme, and as Fu De, this undoubtedly made the soldiers feel guilty. They dared to offend and got out of the way.
The carriage left the east gate of Yizhou and began to drive away.
After arriving at a safe area, Lin Chu tightened the reins and Fu De got out of the carriage with a sullen face. He snorted dissatisfiedly at him and then walked away.
You know, he took a huge risk for what happened today, so how could he not be angry.
Inside the car, an unconscious old woman was still lying. Lin Chu was afraid of an accident, so before acting, Lin Chu knocked the old woman unconscious.
A few days later, Fuling.
At this time, Xiao Yuan, Su Yi, and Zhao Mu had already joined forces here, while Guan Kui was still behind to assist Goldman Sachs in guarding Tongguan.
The Qin army totaled 60,000, and Fuling was naturally already in Xiao Yuan's hands. He had also received a message from Lin Chu, and was heading to the city gate in person at this time, preparing to greet Lian Xiao's mother.
After walking for a while, Fuling had arrived. Lin Chu immediately tightened the reins. As the horse neighed, Lian Mu in the car asked: "Where are you taking the old woman?"
"Don't be anxious, madam. Fuling has arrived and you will know it soon." Lin Chu's tone was quite respectful.
As he spoke, he opened the car curtain for Lian Mu, stretched out his hand and said, "Old madam, please."
Lian Mu glanced at him and realized that the matter was over. Based on her experience, she would naturally stop talking useless nonsense. Instead, she picked up the crutches without fear and walked on.
When she came down, before she could figure out the situation, Xiao Yuan quickly stepped forward, bowed his hands, bent down and gave a salute, and said with a smile: "Xiao Yuan, the governor of Qinzhou, has met the old lady."
His etiquette was in place. When Lian's mother saw this, she was obviously stunned, and then asked incredulously: "Master Qin?"
"Exactly." Xiao Yuan smiled: "The old lady must be exhausted from running all the way. Please come into the city quickly."
As he spoke, he hurriedly stepped forward, ready to hold Lian's mother's arm in a friendly manner.
"Huh?" In the end, Lian Mu raised her hand slightly to stop him: "Master Qin is the highest official in the country, and this old woman cannot bear such etiquette."
As she said that, she glanced at Xiao Yuan again: "Master Qin did this because he wanted to threaten my son with the old woman's life?"
This is a very calm old man, well-informed, and his expression remains calm even when he is in danger.
When Xiao Yuan heard this, he smiled heartily and said: "The old lady has misunderstood. General Lian Xiao is a man! I also sincerely admire him. In this case, how can I dare to act like a villain and threaten the man?"
Hearing this, Lian's mother couldn't help but glance at Xiao Yuan suspiciously.
The latter smiled slightly, stretched out his hand politely again and said: "Old lady, please."
"Okay." Lian Mu had no choice but to follow him into the city.
Xiao Yuan's attitude towards her can be said to be very respectful, as if he were treating an elder. After entering the city, even his mother saw an interesting scene.
I thought that Fuling was captured by the Qin army, and the people here must be in dire straits. But after entering, it was completely different. Not only was the market as usual, but there were also a large number of soldiers busy at an arch bridge.
Seeing this, Lian's mother felt confused and couldn't help but ask Xiao Yuan, "Are these Qin troops?"
He was naturally referring to the busy soldiers at the arch bridge. Xiao Yuan nodded slightly: "Yes."
"Are they clearing the silt?" Lian's mother asked again.
Xiao Yuan nodded again.
The river in the city has accumulated silt all year round and can no longer be called a river. Although this is a small matter, it can also show what the Qin army did.
Lian Mu took a deep breath, and then said quietly: "It seems that General Xiao wants to do things for the people and govern Shu."
Xiao Yuan was noncommittal.
The group continued walking, with a large number of troops behind them to protect them. Later, Xiao Yuan arranged for Lian Xiao's mother to be properly placed, and then called Lin Chu.
When the latter saw him, he quickly knelt down on one knee, cupped his fists and saluted: "See you, my lord!"
"No need to be polite."
Xiao Yuan waved his hand to signal him to stand up, then looked him over and praised him sincerely: "Lin Chu, you did a good job this time. Lian Xiao's mother couldn't have been in trouble. When there was no time, you were able to make a prompt decision, which was enough. Explain your abilities.”
"My lord is so flattering, my subordinates must not take it seriously." Lin Chu quickly returned in fear.
"There is no need to be too modest. When the two armies are fighting, military intelligence is crucial. Your department also contributed a lot to this battle. In addition, since they have been exposed, let the brothers in Yizhou retreat to avoid additional casualties." Xiao Yuan said again. .
"Yes! My subordinates will make arrangements."
