Chapter 545 The whistle (two chapters in one)(1/2)

Yan Xuehuai made fun of it, and Dill also covered his mouth and giggled.

"Have you taken this route before?" Yan Xuehuai asked.

The post soldier shook his head: "It was the first time that the villain took this line, but the superior told the villain that he had gone to the capital before, but he had never forgotten it and remembered it."

The chief he mentioned was actually not a chief, but an old postman, and the only one in Shifeng Postman who had been to the capital.

Yan Xuehuai nodded: "You are a loyal person. I have a letter here. You will send it back to the person who asked you to deliver the letter." Yan Xuehuai looked at Dill and said, "Reward him a ingot of gold."

Dill handed the prepared gold ingot to the post soldiers, holding the five-two-pound gold ingot in his hand and holding it heavy.

Yan Xuehuai was generous, but it depends on who it was to.

The post soldiers can travel from Shifeng to the capital in four days, and can also return on the same route in four days.

There was no navigation in ancient times. The two guards she sent could do one to ten in terms of force, so they could get from the capital to Shifeng. I am afraid that time would be spent on asking for directions. Not to mention four days, fourteen days would not be Shifeng.

What's more, the post soldier asked him to go back as soon as he arrived, and he didn't even have time to rest, so this ingot of gold was worth it.

The post soldier did not reach out to borrow, but shook his head desperately: "The villain thanked the princess for the reward, but the villain could not receive the reward."

Dill was anxious, but she still saw such ignorant people. She was about to scold her, but she heard Yan Xuehuai ask, "Why?"

The post soldier still didn't dare to look up. His head was lower and lower, and his voice seemed to come out from the ground: "The villain promised a brother that when he delivered the letter to the capital, he visited his grandfather on his behalf. The villain finally came to the capital and wanted to go and see it, otherwise he would be unlikely to have a chance in the future."

"Your brother can't come back?" Yan Xuehuai frowned slightly.

"When the princess says, the villain's brother is no longer alive." The post soldier lay on the ground and kowtowed, "If someone entrusted, he must be a loyal person. The villain dared to ask the princess to forgive his crime."

"Oh, so that's it." Yan Xue's eyebrows and eyes stretched out. The post soldier was very pleased with her. "You must do this job. After sending the letter, you will follow my people back to Beijing. Stay in the future as a job in the capital. There will be opportunities to fulfill your promise in the future. Dill, reward him with the gold, and let him leave his name and hometown."

Yan Xuehuai got up and walked out of the hall, and several maids left.

The post soldier was still kneeling on the ground, with his mouth wide open, staring blankly at the gold handed to him.

"Did you understand? After you have been lucky, the princess will transfer you to the capital to work as a job." Dill was so sorry that this black boy was not very smart. Can he do his job well in the future?

The post soldier finally realized that he was really lucky? When he was a child, others called him a silly boy, but his grandfather said that a silly boy would be blessed, and he would be blessed in the future.

Grandpa didn't lie to him, he was so blessed.

The post soldier got up from the ground and ran out. He wanted to send a letter to the princess. This letter was very important and he had to do so. He tried his best to send the letter back to Shi Feng.

It was not until he ran out that Dill remembered that this silly boy hadn't taken the gold yet.

......

Both Zhenzhu and Zhou Saochen were not in the capital. Yan Xuehuai felt that no one was available, not because there was no one around him who could do things, but because there were some things that only Zhenzhu and Zhou Saochen could do.

If she borrowed Zhou’s descaling from Zhou Dada’s boss, Zhou Dada’s boss would definitely agree, but Yan Xuehuai thought about it and still did not write a letter to Zhou Dada’s boss.

Although Zhou Saochen is still in the Cao Gang, the head of Zhou Dajia has already stated that Zhou Saochen will be her person in the future and will no longer be a pure gangster. This is different from Zhou Feiqiu's situation.

There is no need to bring Zhou Xiugui, a man from the world, into what Yan Xuehuai wants to do.

Yan Xuehuai felt that she was short of staff again. Pearl was given to her by Chai Yan, and Zhou Saochen was given to her by Zhou Dada. She needed to cultivate more useful people.

But that's all for the future, and it's urgent. She needs someone who can do her job for her now.

Yan Xuehuai sighed. The position of the princess can make her do a lot of things, but she can't do a lot of things either.

If she and Chai Yan were just an ordinary couple, there would be no need to worry about it. The two would have committed suicide in person, and with their wit, they could have escaped unscathed.

But now, they have to think a lot and minimize the conflicts from all aspects.

Yan Xuehuai shook his arm and walked around the house. Chai Yan happened to come in from outside. Seeing his own coriander movements, he felt funny and asked, "What kind of magical skills have you practiced?"

Yan Xuehuai asked, "Hada's fishing stall has closed?"

Chai Yan smiled and said, "The fish here have not been fed for two or three days. The father took the bait and bit the hook immediately. The father caught more than a dozen fish in succession. He felt it was boring, so he closed the stall."

Yan Xuehuai also smiled. This is true for being the emperor. Even the fish biting the hook were arranged in advance.

"Today we will have a meal with our father, mother and mother, and have a whole fish banquet." Chai Yan lay on the bed, stretched his limbs and relaxed his whole body.

Yan Xuehuai sat next to him and reached out to touch his abdominal muscles. This is the benefit of getting married. If you want to touch it, you can touch it and if you want to take advantage of it, you can take advantage of it.

"The person sent by my elder brother should have arrived tomorrow. I don't know who will be sent."

Chai Yan said it without any end, but Yan Xuehuai understood that the prince wanted to send someone to Shifeng. No, strictly speaking, it was from Shifeng to go to King Qing's fiefdom.

"There are mostly mountains along the way, and it is the place where the barbarians live for generations." Yan Xuehuai said.

"I think this is why I want to change the road, rather than going to the fiefdom directly." Chai Yan said softly.

Sitting in the capital, I could only know that the 200 people had gone to the fief of King Qing from Shi Feng.

But if you send someone to walk the previous trip, you will know which people and villages passed by this road, which mountains are easy to defend and difficult to attack, which mountains can be stationed in the mountains, and which villages can be used as granaries.

The emperor and the prince cannot go in person, so they must send trusted people to serve as their legs and eyes.

"Those two hundred people said they would remove the defense. I think it was because they found that Chai Shu was not a fuel-efficient lamp, and sooner or later they had been targeted. This is enough to show that at least now, King Qing's strength is not enough."

What strength?

Compete for the strength of the world.

King Qing probably had never seen Chai Shu, his cousin, but Chai Shu was able to seek temporary protection from King Qing. What does this mean?

King Qing has a deep affection for his brothers and sisters, and is willing to offer to his cousin who is a lack of common people?

People's families do not, and the royal family does not.

Therefore, Chai Shu must have something that interests King Qing.

Chai Yan sat up and said, "Has the soldier left? I have to recover it immediately. I can't take advantage of Chai Shu, I want her confession!"

Yan Xuehuai pulled him down again and said with a smile: "Everyone is like you, the daylily is cold. Don't worry, I told Zhenzhu, it's not easy for Chai Shu to die."

Chai Yan breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, his coriander is smart enough and can always think more than him. It is really good to marry a wife. When someone discusses things, he can also learn from each other's strengths and weaknesses to make up for the shortcomings.

He was about to praise his wife, but Yan Xuehuai had already asked for benefits: "Can you lend me agate?"

"Why is agate, amber and glass more capable?" Chai Yan was puzzled.

"Agate is smart. He and Pearl were taught by the same master." Yan Xuehuai replied.

Five days later, Shi Feng.

Pearl calculates the days, and if things go well, then the princess’ reply should come.

He had decided that from today onwards, in the next few days, he would wait at the inn every day, keep an eye on Xiangyun Temple, and handed it over to Zhou Saochen.

Early in the morning, Pearl bought a few rice cakes and then went to the inn to wait.

Before he finished the first piece of rice cake, he saw the post soldier.

Ten days ago, he saw this post soldier here.

At that time, the post soldier was sitting in the corner and was patching his shoes.

Pearl walked over and asked, "Don't the postmen who sent the letter all wore leather boots? Why are yours cloth shoes?"

While sewing shoes, the post soldier said, "I only have a pair of leather boots, so I have to save myself from wearing them. If I wear them badly, I will be frozen in winter."

Shifeng Post was a small post. The clothes and shoes of the post soldiers were taken to Qianhu Camp eighty miles away. They had to pick them up. The people in Qianhu Camp were very fierce. They took a few old military uniforms and sent them away. There were only military uniforms and no boots.

......

Pearl looked at the shoes on the person walking in. Yes, it was him, the patch on the shoes...Okay, it's time for the new patch to be sewn on those shoes.

What made Pearl happy was that in addition to the princess’s handwritten letters, there were also two guards in the royal palace.

He patted the Yi Bing's shoulder, which hurt his hands. This kid was too thin.

"Good brother, it's not bad. I'll send you a letter next time."

Pearl took out a ingot of silver: "Take it to buy a pair of cowhide boots."

The post soldier did not receive the money, and stood up straight with his chest: "The princess told me to follow you back to the capital after sending the letter."

Pearl was stunned and looked at the two familiar guards. The two guards nodded to prove that there was something wrong.

Pearl smiled and slapped the post soldier's shoulder heavily. While swaying his painful claws, he said, "What's your name?"

The post soldier shouted: "My name is Busai, and I call me a whistle!"

Pearl grinned and it took a long time to close: "Do you, whistle, good name, good name."

In Shifeng City, the news of Wu Yuanwai's disappearance finally could not be hidden. Which concubine could hide a living person for more than ten days without being discovered?

Mr. Mo went to report to the official position. The Wu family was one of the richest families in Shi Feng. Even if the magistrate guessed that Mr. Wu's disappearance would not be simple, he could not make excuses.

The captain took people to investigate, but unexpectedly, this investigation really found clues.

On the night when Wu Yuanwai disappeared, a man was on the verge and saw Wu Yuanwai and a woman walking out of the back alley of the Wu family with her arms around her shoulders and turning into the alley next to her.

The captain asked someone to go to the alley to search door to door. Half of the houses in the alley belonged to the Wu family, and they were all empty and unoccupied. Originally, Wu Yuanwai wanted to expand his own house, so he wanted to buy all the alleys, but several families said they refused to move out and still live here.

The headmaster used both soft and hard to the families, and finally someone told the truth. The Wu family sent out a lot of people that night. Later, the movement became less and he wanted to come out to see what was going on. Unexpectedly, he saw a man and a woman walking past the door, but he did not see the faces of these two people, and he didn't know if the man was Mr. Wu.

The second witness.

What the two witnesses said was almost the same, Mr. Wu was walking with a woman.
