Chapter 605 To the Border

The Hu Yong's forehead was sweating profusely. Although he was a little angry, he could only lower his head and dare not speak.

Yun Canglan smiled and shook his head, walked forward, holding Hu Yong's wrist in both hands, and used force, pulling and pushing, which actually grabbed Hu Yong's dislocated arm. His movements were straightforward, but he showed his martial arts foundation.

"I haven't apologized to General Han yet!" Yun Canglan shouted in a low voice.

Hu Yong hurriedly knelt down on one knee and bowed, "I am arrogant, please punish me!"

Han Mo smiled coldly and called out loudly: "Xiao Mu!"

Xiao Mu was waiting outside the yard. When he heard Han Mo's call, he immediately ran in and bowed, "Sir!"

"Xiao Mu, you are the deputy general of the escort team, and you are responsible for arranging escort affairs." Han Mo said slowly: "Now the brothers of Qing Kingdom are escorting the inner courtyard, but you are escorting the outer courtyard. I would like to ask you, are we guarding the princess of Qing Kingdom or my Dayan princess?"

Xiao Mu knelt down on one knee, understood Han Mo's meaning, and immediately said: "I am negligent in my duty, please punish me!"

"It is inevitable to surrender." Han Mo said calmly: "But now the safety of the princess is the most important thing. I will cure your crime again." He looked at Yun Canglan and smiled faintly and said: "Mr. Yun, your subordinates are guarding the princess car all day today, and it is also very hard to do it. I have to hurry to go tomorrow, so I can't drag my tired body to rush on the road, right? Let your people go down and rest first... Xiao Mu, dispatch people to change defenses, but Mo is working hard to celebrate the country's brother!"

Xiao Mu immediately said, "As for the order!" Just as he was about to get up and retreat, Yun Canglan smiled and said, "Don't have to bother. Even if my subordinates stand in the snow and ice, they can rest and recover their energy, and they don't have to go to rest specifically. They are guarding in the inner courtyard. Don't you have any foreign aid? It's okay to rest while guarding here!"

Han Mo shook his head and said, "Mr. Yun is wrong. I will lead the guards here this time, just to protect our country's princess. If you hand over the responsibilities of the guard to you, wouldn't that be too ridiculous? Does Lord Yun think there is no one in my Yan State?"

"Mr. Han is so serious." Yun Canglan smiled and said, "The elite warriors in Yan State are strong, Canglan has always respected them!" He calmly took out a scroll from his sleeve and handed it to Han Mo, and said, "Mr. Han might as well take a look at this!"

Han Mo frowned slightly, finally took the scroll, opened it and took a look, and a strange light flashed through his eyes.

"This is the handwriting of the monarch of your country." Yun Canglan smiled and said, "I'm not hiding it from Lord Han. In fact, the holy general of our country was very happy to learn that your country was willing to marry the princess from a distance. When the second batch of consultative missions arrived in Yanjing City, they brought a letter from the Saint General, which was to be passed on to the monarch of your country. The meaning of the holy general is very simple. The princess of your country will soon become the crown princess of my Daqing, so he begged the monarch of your country to allow Canglan to lead ten tigers and braves to return to Shangjing City with their relatives. On the way back to Beijing, Canglan and his subordinates can guard the princess...!" He took the scroll from Han Mo and smiled and said, "Before Canglan left, he went to the palace to see the monarch of your country and presented the letter from the monarch of your country. The monarch of your country thought it was very much. Canglan even sought the handwriting of the monarch of your country. Along the way, he was qualified to protect His Highness the Princess nearby!"

Han Mo suddenly laughed and said, "So that's it. Why didn't Lord Yun say it earlier? It almost caused a misunderstanding. I thought Lord Yun and your subordinates were going to occupy the magpie's nest, rob our imperial guards' responsibilities, and despise my Dayan. Since it is a sage, I will not be able to say anything more." After a pause, I smiled and said, "But I am the commander of the guard after all, and I have the right to arrange the guard candidates. Since Lord Yun is so worried about the safety of His Royal Highness the Princess, the inner court will send additional staff and protect them closely!" Turning to Xiao Mu, he said, "Send people in and place five brothers on all sides. You can't let the Qing Kingdom brothers suffer alone!"

Xiao Mu immediately bowed and said, "As for the order!" He immediately went down to arrange the manpower.

Yun Canglan smiled bitterly and said, "Mr. Han is indeed an uncompromising person."

At this moment, Doctor Fu had already brought two eunuchs and two palace maids into the yard, carrying the meals used by the princess.

Yun Canglan's eyes swept the eunuchs and palace maids, her eyes were as lightning, and then she smiled and said, "The princess is afraid she is hungry, so send it in!"

When Doctor Fu looked at Han Mo, he saw Han Mo nodding, and then he led the palace maid and eunuch into the house to serve Princess Shuang for dinner.

Han Mo looked at the room, thoughtful, but finally said nothing, turned around and left.

...

The next day, the team had breakfast early in the morning and began to set off. The Wu County Magistrate led officials from all over the country and sent them twenty miles away. Then he stopped and watched the team disappear on the horizon in the distance.

Going north, there are officials along the way. Even if they can’t get to the local county town because of the journey, local officials have prepared a residential courtyard outside the county town.

For several consecutive days, Hu Yong was closely guarding him, and it was not easy for Han Mo to replace him.

Although he had many ways to change it in his mind, Yun Canglan was like a ghost looking at it, wandering around the princess's resting place from time to time.

Of course, Yun Canglan would not have thought that Han Mo would have the intention to replace the pillars. He was just trying his best to protect the future princess of Qingguo, but his existence made Han Mo dare not take action easily.

Han Mo couldn't start easily without finding an excellent opportunity.

He knew that this matter was unusual and that once it was exposed, the consequences would be unimaginable.

When Princess Frost rests, there are always two personal palace maids serving her, which is also an extremely troublesome thing.

The real and fake princesses are replaced, and that is to pass through everyone, including the palace maids who serve Princess Shuang. Now there is Yun Canglan outside and a personal palace maid inside. After a few days, I haven't found a good opportunity.

Han Mo could only wait patiently, and he knew in his heart that the opportunity would come sooner or later.

I visited Kuaiji County for four days before entering Wu County on the fifth day.

Since the Ximen clan was wiped out, some unrest occurred in Wujun. Later, the Wujun City defenders and the Donghai City defenders dispatched from the Donghai City jointly quelled the local unrest.

The situation in Wujun has generally stabilized, but the aftermath of the turmoil has not disappeared. There are many bandits gathered in the mountains and forests, and there are indeed remnants of the Ximen clan in the territory. There is no chaos in the entire Wujun, but there are still minor troubles.

When the marriage team entered Wujun, the county magistrate of Wujun naturally became the most nervous person, because he was afraid that the marriage team would have an accident in Wujun.

There are nearly a thousand guards, and they are the most elite imperial guards in Yan State. They have extremely strong combat power. Even though there are many bandits in Wu County, naturally no bandit force is enough to threaten Princess Frost's safety.

However, the county magistrate of Wu County also understood that even if His Royal Highness the Princess would not be in danger of his life, he would not be able to afford to be frightened by the bandits.

After the demise of the Ximen clan, he, the county magistrate, was worried every day, and he didn't know when the capital passed the order.

At that time, he was close to the Ximen clan. Although he was not as close to the snakes and rats as the governor of Yichun County Situ Jing and the He family, he also helped the Ximen clan do a lot of unethical things.

After the Ximen clan was destroyed, he thought that his position as a county magistrate would definitely not be saved, and he might even have to be buried with the Ximen clan.

However, after quelling the rebellion, Han Xuanling, the Donghai Pacifier Army, said some good things for him in the war report, saying that he had done his best to suppress the rebellion and made great contributions.

Later, the officials from Wu County were assigned to reshuffle the court. Seven or eight out of ten local officials in Wu County fell down. Within a month after the vacancies, all the vacancy was determined. After consultation by the cabinet, officials from major families and royal families were sent over. It was precisely the position of the county magistrate but he was still sitting.

The current Wujun officialdom is actually in chaos and nothing has returned to the right track. Local officials from major forces are fighting each other, and what he, the county magistrate, is doing is also very painful.

But he also knew that when he was an official in Wu County, he offended many people. If he was dismissed from this position of governor, he would probably be killed tomorrow if he went down today.

Therefore, when the princess came, he did not dare to make mistakes. He consulted with the commander of the city defender and transferred a thousand soldiers from the army to strengthen the security of the marriage brigade in Wujun. The commander of the city defender was naturally worried that the marriage brigade would have made mistakes in Wujun. He was in charge of military affairs. If the bandits disturbed the princess, he, the commander of the city defender, would be to blame.

So as soon as the marriage team entered Wujun, the county magistrate of Wujun had already led officials from all over the country to greet them on the border.

At the junction of Kuaiji County and Wu County, it is two hundred miles away from Jianye City in Wu County. The county magistrate forced him to come out 200 miles, showing great humility.

The next two days, with the careful arrangement of the Wujun County Magistrate, the journey was extremely smooth.

At noon on the third day, the team finally arrived in Jianye City.

Cao Yin, the Changde Hou, seemed very comfortable along the way, as if he was traveling around the mountains and rivers, his white clothes were like snow, and he was always riding a horse.

After resting in Jianye City for a day, the team continued to set off the next day, and the county magistrate of Wu County still led his troops to escort the team to Yanqing border.

The marriage team has many dowry vehicles, and they are afraid that Princess Frost will bump too quickly, so they are not moving fast.

After two more days of travel, the team reached a mountain. Han Mo saw from a distance that was dark in the horizon, and even faintly saw the banners waving over there, as if many horses were shuttled back and forth.

In between, there are countless fields, and the golden wheat extends to both sides, as if there is no end.

Under the sunshine, the golden wheat shines with golden light and is extremely beautiful.

"General Han, there is the Hanshui Pass at the junction of Yanqing. Only twenty miles away is the Hanhe River. My Dayan and Qing Kingdom are bounded by the Hanhe River. After crossing the Hanhe River, it is the ground of the Qing Kingdom." The Wujun County Magistrate enthusiastically introduced to Han Mo: "The guardians of the Hanshui Pass are the northwest soldiers under General Xiao. If the border guarded by the Northwest Army is really the most stable here, and there are few conflicts with the Qing Kingdom!"

"How do these wheats... grow at the border?" Han Mo asked curiously.

The county magistrate of Wujun smiled and said, "These wheat belongs to the Northwest Army. It was a military order issued by General Xiao. It uses troops to raise soldiers and gives the people in the country less burden. Every time it is spring and autumn harvest, General Xiao will send a group of soldiers out of it, farming and planting by himself. When it is autumn harvest, he can supplement a large amount of military rations for the border guards." He pointed to the west: "General Han only saw this part. In fact, the entire northwest line, the large-scale cultivation of grain can be seen everywhere."

The team was slowly going down the mountain. Han Mo stood on the top of the mountain when he suddenly saw a group of people coming from the horizon. The group of people and horses were galloping towards the convoy like lightning.
