Chapter 1986: The trip to the north is a hidden worry!

Chapter 1801 The trip to the north, hidden worries!

Fenzhou, the county seat of Xihe County.

"Mr. Mo, how did you guys sleep last night? Are you almost resting?"

The best inn in the county, the lobby on the first floor of Penglai Inn, Li

Tai asked Mo Chui while having breakfast with Tie Dan and others.

A total of thirty-two members of the Assassin Project were dispatched this

time. Most of them are students, and some are gentlemen from the physics

department of the college. In any case, the gentlemen of the college are older

than the students and have more experience in living abroad. To be richer, so

the students' meals and daily life along the way are arranged by the gentlemen

such as Mo Huai!

"Haha! This inn is not bad, it's quiet at night, I just saw everyone was in

good spirits, I think we should have a good rest last night! After a while

after breakfast, we will leave, here is more than a hundred from Taiyuan

Mansion The journey will definitely not make it today. Let’s rest at noon, and

strive to get a foothold in Qixian before dark, start from Qixian tomorrow

morning, and arrive in Taiyuan probably at dusk tomorrow!"

Mo Chui smiled and replied with ease.

This time I led the teachers and students to the north, the "activity funds"

provided by the academy were quite sufficient. Before leaving, Yan Silu also

specially confessed to him that teachers and students of the academy must eat,

drink and live well along the way. Don't feel sorry for the money, this is

what Yan Silu meant, and it was also what Li Zexuan meant!

Because the thirty-two people in this line are all elite members of the

Academy’s Assassin Project, they are the “baby bumps” of the Academy. This

time, the journey to the north is long and the traffic has been exhausting.

The students were already very hardworking. Naturally, the Academy could not

be there. They suffered from food and housing!

So on the way from Lantian County to Xihe County, Mo Chui and the whole group

lived in the best inn and ate the most delicious food, in order to alleviate

the pain of the students on the road. !

"Well! Then bring some dry food and try to arrive in Qi County this evening!"

Li Tai nodded and decided to say.

Although he is a student and Mo Chui is the husband, he is the commander-in-

chief of this northward operation, and he should naturally be the one who

makes the final decision.

Moreover, Mo Chui also recognized Li Tai’s talent in engineering, so along the

way, he did not feel uncomfortable with Li Tai looking at the overall

situation and commanding and dispatching. On the contrary, he was willing to

help Li Tai check the gaps, because Li Tai Although he was born in a royal

family, he was born with a certain commanding ability, but after all he was

young and he was not as rich in life experience as Mo Chui. Often at this

time, Mo Chui was needed to come forward!

After the two agreed, Duguxin walked in from outside and whispered in Li Tai's

ear: "His Royal Highness, the last general has ordered the scout team to clear

the way first, and the rest of the army can move out at any time, waiting for

Your Highness to leave the city to join!"

Although Mo Chui had packaged the entire inn last night, there were no other

guests in the inn lobby at this time, but Duguxin, who was used to staying in

the army, had a strong sense of alertness, so he chose to use this way of

speaking. In order to avoid revealing the whereabouts of Li Tai and others!

This time, along with all the teachers and students of the academy, there were

also a thousand imperial imperial troops led by Duguxin and Dugu Feiying. As

this mission involved secrets, their group did not alarm the local government

along the way. The county was only from the academy. People enter the city to

live in an inn, and a thousand forbidden troops are stationed secretly outside

the city. Under normal circumstances, Duguxin will take a few guards to

protect Li Tai, and Dugu Feiying will lead the army outside the city!

It’s not that Li Tai, Mo Chui and others are treating them differently, but

the students and gentlemen of the academy are definitely not as good as the

soldiers who have been in the army for many years. The chariots and horses of

this road are already very hard. If they were allowed to sleep in camps

outside the city like the Forbidden Army, it is estimated that most of the

people in the academy would have fallen before they arrived in Taiyuan!

"Hmm! Are the materials in the college safe?"

Li Tai nodded and asked softly.

This trip to the north was mainly to build a telegraph relay station. When

coming out of Lantian County, three carriages of the college’s carriages were

loaded with machinery, parts and other materials needed to build a telegraph

relay station. Naturally, such important things cannot be brought. Enter the

city and bring them into the inn. If they are caught by a thief, they will be

blind after walking so far. Therefore, the supplies of the academy have been

kept by the forbidden army under Duguxin's all the way!

"Your Highness, don't worry, the supplies are all right!"

Duguxin replied briefly.

It is impossible to take away the academy’s materials unless the enemy can

send five thousand soldiers and horses to kill all the 1,000 forbidden troops.

"That's good!"

Li Tai nodded. At this time, he had almost eaten. He got up and said to the

surrounding Tiedan, Meng Wenhao, Mo Chui and others: "Everyone hurry up to eat

and drink. After eating, go back to the room to pack things, and leave the

city together in half a quarter of an hour. !"

"Yes!"

Everyone whispered.

Not far away, the shopkeeper and the young man in the inn did not dare to say

a word or even look at this side because Duguxin and the people around him all

had swords in their hands. It was not good to see them. Lord of trouble!

Everyone in business understands that more is worse than less. The inn’s

shopkeeper ordered his servants to wait for Li Tai's group with care last

night. Don’t ask anything that shouldn’t be asked. He only regards Li Tai as a

foreign county. The tyrants of a certain place pass by here, can they not

provoke them!

Half a quarter of an hour later, all the thirty-two people from the academy

plus Dugu Xin and other people left the inn and walked outside the city gate.

As for the accommodation expenses, Mo Chui had already settled the inn

shopkeeper.

"The shopkeeper, what do you say these people are? The carriages they ride are

all made by Qiquge!"

After Li Tai and others left, the inn Xiaoer couldn't help but ask.

"Perhaps which family's son is traveling~!"

Although the shopkeeper was also curious in his heart, he faintly answered

Xiao Si's words and said.

"Hey! The fat boy just now must be the son of the big family, and the person

who just walked in is the guard of their house, but I look at the boy sitting

next to the boy, it seems that it is not him. My servant!"

The young man squeezed his chin and guessed seriously.

"Slap~!"

It’s just that his voice fell apart, and the shopkeeper’s slap fell on the

back of his head. He just listened to the shopkeeper’s angrily roaring: "Are

you kidding me? Who are you in charge of? What is the origin? The tables are

cleaned and the rooms are tidied up!"

The little servant suffered a momentary pain, and quickly jumped to the side,

rubbing the back of his head and replied: "Oh! I'm going now!"

"Hey! Curiosity kills the cat, this kid will suffer sooner or later!"

The shopkeeper muttered to himself while looking at the young man's back.

However, his attention was quickly attracted by the pile of Tang Yuan on the

counter in front of him, which was the room money that Mo Chui had just paid

him. Penglai Inn is also the largest inn in Xihe County anyway, with nearly 50

guest rooms. Li Tai and his party booked the inn this time, and the room was a

lot of money for one night!

"What do they do? Just pay for the room!"

The shopkeeper picked up the pile of Tang Yuan and said with a smile.

"Yo~! Guest officer, are you eating or staying in a restaurant so early?"

At this moment, a big man with dark skin and coarse cloth short clothes came

outside the door. Xiao Er hurriedly greeted him, but the big man ignored him

at all and walked straight towards the shopkeeper at the counter.

"The shopkeeper, did you have dozens of teenagers staying in your inn last

night?"

The big man knocked on the accounting table, and looked at the shopkeeper and

asked in an authentic Guanzhong accent.

"Oh, guest officer, here is where we live, not the place to inquire about

news!"

The shopkeeper's eyes narrowed. He listened to the accent of the other party,

and knew that the other party was probably from the capital area, but the

other party was dressed and completely not like a rich person, so he didn't

bother to take care of it!

"Slap~!"

Unexpectedly, the big man took out a hanging copper coin from his waist,

slapped it in front of the shopkeeper, and said, "This is consistent money. If

you answer certain questions truthfully, a certain family would like to thank

you!"

For Tang Chu, whose prices are extremely low, the money is already considered

a huge sum of money in the eyes of ordinary people. The shopkeeper is

naturally rich, not bad for the money, but you can answer a few questions.

Getting consistent money is still a very cost-effective business for him, but

he is a bit strange, isn't it too heavy for him to hang so much copper?

Here, I have to say that since the establishment of the Yanhuang Bank and the

imperial court personally came out to promote Tang Yuan, more and more people

in Datang began to use Tang Yuan slowly and gradually accepted the convenience

brought by Tang Yuan. , Almost no one is willing to use copper coins anymore,

especially in Guanzhong area. At present, it is basically difficult to see

copper coins in large transactions in many states and counties!

"Hehe! Good to talk! Good to talk!"

The shopkeeper smiled and reached out to take the copper coin that the big man

had patted on the table, and then said: "There were indeed a group of

teenagers and a few adults staying in this inn last night. Why did this guest

inquire about this?"

"Don't ask if you shouldn't ask!"

The big man glanced at the shopkeeper indifferently. There was no emotion or

vitality in his eyes. He then asked, "How many people are there in their

party? How many are there in young people and adults?"

"Uh, this... there are about thirty-eight of them, among them there seem to be

more than 20 teenagers, um... the old man can't remember the exact number.

Among the adults, it seems that there are five or six guards of one of them.

!"

The shopkeeper recalled for a moment and replied.

"Five or six guards? Then do you know where they are going and what are they

doing there?"

The big man asked again.

When the shopkeeper heard the words, he waved his hand and said: "This guest

officer, you laughed, I'm just the shopkeeper of the inn, where do I know

this? And we come to the inn, but we never inquire about the secrets of our

guests!"

"Huh~?"

Hearing this, the big man instantly changed his face and showed a fierce look.

The shopkeeper was taken aback, couldn't help taking two steps back, and

hurriedly said: "This guest officer, the old man really doesn't know this,

and... and the county office is not far from our inn..."

The implication is that you'd better not make trouble here, or the county

government will send you over to jail for a while!

After all, the shopkeeper winked at Xiao Er who was not far away, and Xiao Er

nodded and cautiously leaned toward the door. He wanted to report to the

county government!

"Humph!"

Dahan paused for a moment and snorted. He apparently noticed the actions of

Xiao Er behind him. It stands to reason that he could tie up both the

shopkeeper and Xiao Er at this time, but then he would be wanted by the

government, so he thought about it. , He didn't continue to struggle with the

shopkeeper, but turned and left.

As for what he said earlier, "Another thank you very much", it is naturally

impossible!

"The treasurer, this person is definitely not a beloved person. I am afraid

that the young man who has just left is not in danger. Should we report to the

government?"

Xiao Er went out and took a look. Seeing that the big man disappeared on the

street, he rushed in and said to the shopkeeper behind the counter.

This little second is not stupid yet, he can see that the previous big man

asked Li Tai and his party's whereabouts is definitely not kind, so he

suggested that the shopkeeper go directly to the officer.

"Report your head, take care of your business, and get off to work!"

But the shopkeeper didn't think so. He was just a business man. He didn't know

Li Tai and the big guy just now. He couldn't guilty of offending the other

party for their sake.

"Oh~! Yes, the shopkeeper~!"

Xiao Er rubbed the back of his head and left in surprise.

……………………………………………………

On the official road from Xihe County to Qi County, twelve carriages loaded

with machines and parts necessary for the teachers and students of the academy

and the construction of the telegraph relay station were escorted by more than

a thousand imperial imperial troops, heading northeast.

Now that the large team has left the county seat, there is nothing to hide

from the forbidden army carried by Duguxin. This group of people looks like

the imperial army is escorting something to the north. Nowadays, there are

heavy soldiers on the northern border of Datang. Suddenly nervous, there are

usually many food transport teams rushing north from Guanzhong, so it is not

surprising that people on the road see the team of Duguxin!

It's just that none of them knows. In that carriage, there are the current

King Wei and more than 30 teachers and students of Yanhuang Academy!

"Tiedan~www.mtlnovel.com~Wenhao, what do you guys say that Shanchang is doing

now?"

Inside the carriage, Li Tai suddenly spoke out inexplicably.

The iron egg sitting opposite him frowned at this moment, paused for a moment,

and replied: "Before we left the academy, Master had already been in the

barracks. Should we now train soldiers in the Xuanjia Army?"

Meng Wenhao turned his head and looked at Li Tai. He didn't understand what Li

Tai meant when he mentioned Li Zexuan.

Li Tai sighed and said:

"Last time you went north to kill locusts, the mountain leader was with you,

so even if you encounter problems like this or that kind of problem on the

road, the mountain leader can solve it for you. But this time you went to the

north to repair the telegraph relay station, the mountain leader had no time

to do it again. I am ahead, but in terms of strategizing ability, how can I be

as long as the mountain? This is a good thing to go to Taiyuan. I am worried

that if we go to Yunzhou, if the Turkic people know our purpose, I am afraid

they will not let it go! I always feel vaguely, we This journey will not be

too smooth!"
