Chapter 193 Letters
Yang Gan's face turned aside and he said in shock, "You bastard, Shang Guo is going to attack Xia Guo."
After putting Mu Qing on the ground, Yang Qian walked around with his upper body naked. Combining the bits and pieces of information he received, he pieced it together and found that Shang Guo really had no good intentions.
Mu Qing said flatly, "It's impossible. Shangguo's food harvest has been poor for years and it's impossible to fight."
Yang Qian said silently, "Since last year, Shangguo's border gate has been frequently mobilizing grain and grass, accompanied by small military deployments. Now my own sons are already at the border. You are lying to say that they have no intention of invading Xiaguo."
Mu Qing looked at Yang Qian silently, "Who are you? You actually know a lot about such important military matters."
Yang Gan took out a letter, "This was found from the dead soldiers. Their purpose of this trip is not only to kidnap you, but also to protect Prime Minister Shang Guo."
Mu Qing thought carefully and said anxiously, "Is it possible that Prime Minister Shang Guo is in Tang State?"
"That's right, not only Prime Minister Shang Guo, but also Prime Minister Liao Guo. Although I don't know what they are talking about, I estimate that 80% of them are about food procurement."
The more Yang Gan thought about it, the more he felt it was right. At this time, apart from food, there was no other way for the prime ministers of the two countries to sit together. Besides, the two countries were often at war, so it would be good if they didn't fight each other when they met.
"Yang Gan? Yang Gan? This name sounds familiar. I must have heard it somewhere." Mu Qing murmured.
"Hahaha, I'm just a little person. I'll take you back to the city tomorrow and have a good sleep."
Yang Gan looked very relaxed on the surface, but when he looked at the moon outside the cave, he found that the moon was dyed red.
"It's been a troubled time, and I don't know how many people will die in this war."
After returning to the cave and adding a few handfuls of hard wood, Yang Gan picked up Mu Qing and slowly fell asleep, while Mu Qing opened his eyes wide and kept looking at the man in front of him.
"Who is he and why is he so mysterious?"
But before long, she couldn't hold back her sleep and fell into a deep sleep.
The next day.
After the rain washed away, the mountain forest suddenly looked full of spring, and the short grass was covered with little dew.
Mu Qing struggled to open his eyes, his stomach growling with hunger. When he looked to the side, Yang Qian had already disappeared.
Mu Qing's heart suddenly suddenly became anxious. As soon as he stood up, he felt a stinging pain in his ankle. He frowned and limped toward the outside of the cave on one foot.
When I arrived outside just now, I saw Yang Gan carrying a huge stone, standing up and squatting down constantly.
Mu Qing covered his mouth in shock. How could such a huge stone be resisted by human power?
After a while, Yang Qian threw the stone directly to the side and watched it rolling down the mountain in a funny way.
"Go slowly, don't send me away."
"Hey, why are you awake? Why don't you sleep a little longer?" Yang Gan turned around and saw Mu Qing leaning against the entrance of the cave.
After a day and night of bumps and injuries, her swallowtail-shaped bun had been scattered to one side, and the steps on her head had been thrown away.
The plain white long gown was torn in pieces here and there, and was stained with a layer of mud. There was also a pink patch of white on the belly, which actually emitted the light of fat jade under the weak sunlight.
"I ate half a pancake yesterday and I woke up from hunger." Mu Qing was helpless. She had always been gentle and gentle, and this was the first time she said she was hungry in front of other men.
Yang Qian looked at the sky and estimated that it was around 10 o'clock. Thinking about it, it was still too early to walk on the ground.

It's really a bit nerve-wracking to take one step at a time.
He picked up the wolf he killed yesterday from the ground, waved it in front of Mu Qing, "Are you interested in eating this?"
"Wolf meat?"
"Yes, there is nothing to eat now. If we want to go down the mountain, I just tried it. The ground is too slippery. It is best to have a bright sun at noon to dry out the wet ground, otherwise the two of us will probably roll down the mountain in a round shape."
"Pfft~~!"
Mu Qing covered his mouth and chuckled, "You are a very funny person. It seems that you have already started a family."
The muscles on Mu Qing's smiling face were a little tense.
Seeing that Mu Qing had no objection, Yang Qian's saliva began to secrete. He had a big appetite, but after taking the elixir and exercising, he now felt empty, lonely and cold.
When he came to the cave, he packed up the packages, hugged Mu Qing with his left hand, and set off towards the lake with the jungle wolf in his right hand.
"I haven't gotten married yet."
"A man as skilled as you is yet to have a family. It seems he wants to achieve success first?"
Hearing that Yang Qian hadn't gotten married yet, Mu Qing felt relieved for no reason and breathed a heavy sigh of relief.
"If I can, I just want to live a good life, have a lot of money, have peace in the world, and never fight again. That would be great."
Yang Gan killed many people and captured more slaves than those who died in the ten years of war in the Central Plains, but he still longed for peace in his heart.
Mu Qing was surprised and said, "Then don't you want to be a hermit, living in seclusion in the mountains and not caring about worldly affairs?"
After arriving at the destination, Yang Qian took the lead in draining the wolf's blood. Fortunately, the temperature here was relatively low. Although the meat died all night, the meat did not deteriorate.
He took out his iron knife and started to skin the coyote. After cutting off a wolf leg, he started to use alcohol to remove the smell. I heard that wolf meat tasted similar to dog meat, but the smell was very strong. Then he took out some salt to marinate it.
It's a pity that when I came this time, who could have imagined that such a thing would happen, and I didn't bring any other seasonings at all.
Use two sharpened branches to prop up the wolf's legs and grill them.
After finishing his work, Yang Gan took some water from the lake and placed the bamboo tube on the fire.
"Hermit? It's good to be a hermit, but it's better to be a hermit in the city. I like to build a big house in the downtown area and stay at home without going out."
"House?"
"Oh, it means staying at home."
"Yang Gan, who are you? I think you speak very interestingly."
"Funny? Do you think I'm a monkey?"
Yang Gan felt that he had said a bit too much, and he still didn't know what this woman's background was. It would be a bad idea if her secrets were exposed, so he interrupted his speech by laughing.
“Zizzizi~~~”
The fat on the wolf's legs kept dripping on the campfire. Yang Qian immediately used a knife to scratch and pull on the leg meat, and sprinkled some salt into it to make the huge wolf legs more flavorful.
It didn't take long for him to pass the wolf leg test. He cut off a large piece with a knife and threw it to Mu Qing. He grabbed the large piece of leg meat and ate it happily.
Mu Qing opened her lips lightly and took a bite. Suddenly, she felt an inexplicable fishy smell coming from her mouth. She frowned slightly and was a little unhappy, but a sudden rush of salty and fresh taste was miraculously neutralized. That fishy smell.
"I didn't expect you, a grown man, to have some skills in grilling." Anyway, there were only two of us, so Mu Qing opened himself up, rolled up his sleeves, and gnawed on the wolf meat. He couldn't help it, he was too hungry.
Yang Gan's mouth was full of oil after eating, but he wasn't here

He asked, "Do you know Shang Guo's writing?"
"Of course, I am very familiar with the writings of Shang, Xia, Liao and Xingguo."
"Please read it for me, what does this letter say?" Yang Qian couldn't help but handed the letter over. He could roughly read some of the words on it, but most of the words were as incomprehensible as ghost drawings.
Mu Qing opened the letter and read it. As he read it, his eyes tightened and he felt something was wrong.
"What does it say?"
After reading the entire letter, Mu Qing let out a long sigh, "Someone asked the dead man to send a letter to Prime Minister Shang Guo. Due to the shortage of food in the country, the capital of Guizhou was lost, so Prime Minister Shang Guo was asked to find a way to buy more grain, copper and iron. Increase it by two times from the original basis.”
"Is there a specific number?"
Mu Qing read the letter again and shook his head, "No, but the time of their transaction is quite interesting."
"when?"
"Trade at Hai hour six days later."
Yang Qian narrowed his eyes and sneered, "It's so late at night, I'm afraid there's something wrong with this transaction."
"Can you tell me the truth, who are you?" The murderous look on Yang Gan's face made Mu Qing shudder, and he felt more and more that the man in front of him was not simple.
Yang Gan sneered and said, "Too much curiosity is not a good thing. Sometimes curiosity can cost you your life. It would be a shame to cut off such a beautiful head."
Mu Qing fell silent, and the strong threat made her shut up. She was not a modern kind of woman.
Mu Qing, who is gentle, quiet and elegant, and has been influenced by culture, will never do the kind of things that push his limits.
"Since the young master refuses to say anything, Mu Qingjuan has no intention of forcing him, but I will remember the two life-saving graces."
Yang Qian washed his hands and disinfected them with alcohol anxiously. He wanted to check Mu Qing's injuries, but he didn't expect her to move back slightly, as if she was thousands of miles away.
In this situation, if it was an ordinary young master, under the constraints of etiquette, it would be fine. But who is Yang Gan? He comes from modern society. After being baptized in the workplace, he understands one thing.
Things like face are the least valuable thing. They are mainly otakus. They have no problem with customers, but when it comes to women, they are almost blind.
He immediately grabbed her leg and pulled her over, scolding her, "Why are you running away? Let me take a look."
Yang Qian couldn't help but take apart the cloth strips and saw that scabs had begun to form on the four tooth cavities. He pressed them a little.
"Hmm~!" Mu Qingxiu frowned slightly.
"Well, after all, young people have good resilience."
Yang Qian muttered something to himself and then checked Mu Qing's ankle. The originally swollen ankle was half swollen. It is estimated that if he takes a good look at the doctor, it will heal soon.
A struggling expression appeared on Mu Qing's face. If a man had dared to look at him like this before, he would have scolded him and walked away.
But Yang Qian's serious and focused expression made him feel good about it, and he even leaned forward so that he could look more carefully.
"How's my injury?"
Yang Gan nodded and said with a smile, "It's pretty good. I'm recovering well. It's just that my ankle may need to see a doctor when I get back."
Yang Qian not only washed his hands himself, but also asked Mu Qing to wash his hands as well and even took out a bath bean from his bag. The cleanliness was as grand as taking a bath and changing clothes.
"Are you ready? When we are ready, we will set off."
