Qin Gong

Chapter 239

Day two.

When Wu Yun woke up, she felt the carriage was swaying. When she opened her eyes dimly, she saw Bai Yan sitting beside her.

"woke up!"

Seeing Wu Yun wake up, Bai Yan took out some warm dry food from the package beside her and handed it to Wu Yun.

"Thank you Zixiao!"

Wu Yun took the rations, thanked her, and quietly ate with her head down. When she looked at her brother sleeping beside her, her eyes were full of worry.

Wu Gao's injury has begun to deteriorate.

Thinking of this, Wu Yun's eyes turned red, and she unnaturally looked at the young man beside her from the corner of her eye.

Yesterday she already knew that the young man in front of her was from a noble family surnamed Xu in Qi State. This time she came to Zhao State, just like her, to Handan.

Xu Zixiao is the boy's name.

The boy didn't say what the purpose of going to Handan was, and she didn't ask either.

Because she also did not tell the boy why she and her younger brother were going to Handan.

Two hours later.

As the carriage was about to drive to the city, the carriage stopped slowly.

Inside the carriage, Bai Yan moved Wu Gao's body to the back and found some cloth wrapped clothes to cover it.

"is this OK?"

Wu Yun looked at it worriedly, and asked softly.

"Then do you have any other options?"

Bai Yan turned his head to look at Wu Yun: "If we don't enter the city today, we can delay it, but your brother may not be able to last long!"

After speaking, seeing that Wu Yun couldn't think of any other way, Bai Yan turned his head to look at Wu Gao's weak face, stretched out his hand from the cloth wrapped around him, took out the clothes, and covered Wu Gao's body.

In this unfamiliar place, Bai Yan originally planned to find a woodcutter and bribe him with a lot of money to see if he could put Wu Gao in a firewood cart and send him into the city.

Never thought that Wu Gao's body was already extremely weak.

Go to the city to find a doctor later, I'm afraid Wu Gao will lose his life.

"At least before sunset, the people of that village will not come here. Don't worry, we should be able to enter the city."

After Bai Yan finished everything, he just sat back to his original position, clapped his hands, turned his head and said to Wu Yun.

Last night, Ye, Feng Nian, and Yu took turns guarding the road. In the middle of the night, a villager with a torch drove through the night. He wanted to open the city gate at dawn, so he informed the officials in the city of the news.

The villager of that person has already been dealt with by them.

Counting that person's return trip, no one from that village will appear here before sunset.

As long as the people in that village don't come here, it shouldn't be difficult to enter the city right now.

Inside the carriage.

When Wu Yun heard Bai Yan's words, although she was worried, she still nodded.

After seeing Wu Yun sat down, Bai Yan ordered Ye to set off.

After a long time, when the carriage came to the gate of the city, Bai Yan and Wu Yun inside the carriage held their breath, quietly listening to the movement outside and Zhao Zu's inquiry.

Then I saw a seventeen or eighteen-year-old Zhao soldier lift the curtain and look into the carriage.

When this young Zhao Zun saw Wu Yun, he stared straight at Wu Yun for several breaths, and was patted by other older Zhao Zun before he came back to his senses.

"What's behind that?"

Zhao Zu asked.

Wu Yun lowered her head and pinched the corner of her clothes with her slender hands.

Bai Yan at the side calmly took out more than [-] coins from his sleeve pocket.

"I was invited to Handan. Those are my concubine's clothes. If you don't believe me, you can come and have a look."

Bai Yan said to the young Zhao Zu, and then stretched out his hand.

Seeing this, the young Zhao Zu stared wide-eyed when he saw so much money, but before he could react, an older Zhao Zun pushed him away impatiently, and then took two steps forward.

"I'll check it out!"

After getting into the carriage, the older Zhao Zu glanced at the person hiding behind Bai Yan, and then looked at Bai Yan's outfit and the jade pendant around his waist.

Thinking that this young man was invited to come to Zhao country, his outfit is definitely not ordinary.

Zhao Zu guessed in his mind that the girl from the village was taken by the young man and specially kidnapped. Otherwise, how could a young man in luxurious clothes be hidden and taken to the city.

Thinking of this, Zhao Zu smiled and reached out to take the five hundred coins from Bai Yan's hand, but he did not leave in a hurry.

"These clothes?"

Zhao Zu asked.

In his eyes, it was obviously not the first time that the young man in front of him was so familiar with the road and made such a big shot.

To make such a young man fancy, that woman's appearance must not be worse than this woman.

"These clothes are all ordinary clothes. If the adults have finished searching, it's getting late, and I have to rush to Handan to meet the appointment! Otherwise, it will be too late, not to mention the old friends in Handan, even the elders who have already arrived in Handan will inevitably be scolded!"

Bai Yan once again took out two hundred coins from his sleeve pocket and put them in Zhao Zuo's hands.

This adds up to more than [-] yuan. To buy a slave in Qin State, adult slaves, regardless of gender, cost [-] yuan, while young children only sold [-] yuan.

In the case of more women than men, Zhao State is several times more than Qin State. Although Bai Yan has not understood the market, it will definitely be much lower.

More than [-] yuan to get across the road is not a lot.

"So that's it, fine, that's fine!"

Zhao Zu naturally could hear the young man telling him that she was a girl from an ordinary family in the village, and after the 'harvesting' was over, he would take her to Handan, with a backer behind her.

Looking at the young man's body and feeling the heavy money in his hand, Zhao Zu didn't dare to be greedy anymore, so he turned around and got off the carriage.

The curtains were lowered again.

"Let's go!"

Outside the carriage, Zhao Zu's voice sounded.

It wasn't until this moment that Wu Yun breathed a sigh of relief, the silk dress in front of her undulated slightly.

When the carriage was moving, Wu Yun turned to look at Xu Zixiao beside him, and found that his expression was very calm.

After entering the city.

"How did Zixiao know that Zhao Zu didn't know how to search?"

In the end, Wu Yun couldn't help but ask. Just now, as soon as she got into the carriage, she could see a person behind her.

Why is Xu Zixiao so calm in front of him, or so confident.

Could it be that this is not the first time he has done this kind of thing?

Thinking of this, the way Wu Yun looked at Bai Yan was slightly different.

"Why do you think the people in that village want to kill you and your party?"

When Bai Yan heard Wu Yun's question, he didn't answer, but looked ahead and asked softly.

Wu Yun didn't react for a while.

"It should be money!"

Wu Yun said instinctively, thinking of her beloved, a trace of sadness appeared in her eyes.

If possible, she is willing to use more money to exchange the life of her husband with those villagers.

Just when Wu Yun was sad, she saw Bai Yan whispering something.

"If it weren't for this day, those people would be kinder than all the gentry!"

Bai Yan's words made Wu Yun stunned.

Soon Wu Yun understood the meaning of the young man beside him. The country of Zhao has been suffering from drought year after year. With the current situation of lack of food and grass in Zhao country, those people are desperate. If they don't violate their conscience, not only they will starve to death, but even their wives and children will die. Parents, also starve to death.

No matter what happened in the past, that Zhao soldier just now will become insensitive to Zhao's situation and only recognize money.

"God owes them, but my beloved doesn't! The people in that village killed my beloved, and I will take revenge in the future."

Wu Yun looked aside.

She didn't blame the young man in front of her, who was also a son of the noble family, for speaking up for the murderers who killed her beloved, but she also wanted to tell this young man.

Kill for life!
She still wants revenge!

Inside the carriage, upon hearing Wu Yun's words, Bai Yan turned to look at Wu Yun who was curled up and staring directly at the board in front of him.

Bai Yan didn't speak, and he wouldn't stop Wu Yun either.

Because if it were him, maybe he would have gone too far than Wu Yun.

What's more, after those people murdered and seized their wealth, who lost their nature, who knew how they would treat the other women caught by them.

Just now, he just lamented that God and this world have subtly influenced people to become like this.

Just like him.

He has killed an unknown number of people now, and at some point, he has gradually become accustomed to killing.

inside the city.

The carriage drove slowly on the street until it came to a pharmacy.

"You have an injury on your back. My servant knows the medicine to heal the injury. You don't need to go down. After you get the herbal medicine, you must leave this place immediately. You must not stay for long!"

Seeing Wu Yun about to get off the carriage, Bai Yan said.

Wu Yun nodded, she naturally knew how dangerous it was to stay here.

Bai Yan got up, opened the curtain, handed over the money to the three of them, and whispered to Gui to get the herbs, to ask Feng Nian to find a trailer, and to ask Ye to buy some coarse clothes.

After explaining everything clearly, and watching the three leave, Bai Yan returned to the carriage.

"Zi Xiao often travels around the world?"

Wu Yun couldn't help but asked softly. She found that the young Xu Zixiao was not only delicate in mind, but also very sophisticated.

This is definitely not the vision and agility that a carefree and ordinary child in a big family can have.

Qi State Xu surname.

She did know that there were many noble families with the surname Xu in Qi, but she had never heard of a young man named Xu Zixiao.

"Occasional travel is not enough!"

When Bai Yan heard Wu Yun's question, he said something softly, as if he didn't want to have a deep conversation.

Looking at Wu Yun from the corner of the eye, Bai Yan knew that right now he couldn't open his mouth to ask Wu Yun and Wu Gao about the purpose of coming to Zhao country this time.

Even if he asked, the siblings probably wouldn't tell the truth.

That being the case, it's better to give Wu Yun the feeling that he doesn't care about the other party. Only in this way can the other party's inner guard be lowered.

"You stay here, I'll go out!"

Bai Yan looked at Wu Yun.

Wu Yun was a little puzzled, then watched Bai Yan get up and walk out of the car.

After watching Bai Yan's leaving figure disappear.

Inside the carriage.

Wu Yun turned her head to look at Wu Gao, and listened to the voices of the common people and passers-by outside the carriage. It was only when there was no one there that her eyes shed two lines of tears.

She didn't expect that when she came to Zhao country this time, her husband died on the way before reaching Handan.

In a blink of an eye, she became a widow, and her brother was seriously injured and unconscious.

She did not object to anti-Qin, her father did not like Qin, after marrying her to Wei, her husband's father was also an official in Wei who supported anti-Qin.

Her elder brother even followed General Yi Cheng to fight against Qin last year, but was killed by that Qin man Bai Yan. If she hadn't decided to fight against Qin, she and her husband would not have come to Handan as promised by Zhang Er and other celebrities. .

But she never expected that her husband would be killed by the famine and nowhere to go before he arrived in Handan as promised.

"Woooooo~!"

Wu Yun covered her face and wept bitterly.

　According to Zhang Er's information, when Zhang Er was young, he was a frequent guest of Wei Guogong's son Wuji.Once desperately traveled to Waihuang.

　　According to records, a rich girl lost her husband, and her father's retainers suggested that she marry Zhang Er, and the rich girl married Zhang Er, and gave them great support.Zhang Er attracted followers from all over the world and became the magistrate of Huang County in Weiwai.

　　A little change here.

　　It's not water! !
　　Ladies and gentlemen, there is still the next chapter, which will be posted in the morning, and I have to spend the whole night with a knife to catch up on the manuscript. This afternoon, I had a conflict with my wife and was beaten by my wife until my nose bleeds.
