Sir, I just want to be a salted fish

Chapter 234 Separation
Mr. Tang Sanye decided to live his life with the only daughter of his capable subordinate Wu Jiang.

Wu Jiang was originally a martial artist, but by chance, he later joined Master Tang San. He has been serving Tang San for more than ten years.

Three years ago, Wu Jiang died unfortunately during a secret mission. Before his death, he asked someone to bring a message to Mr. Tang, hoping that Mr. Tang could take care of his only daughter, Wu Yetong.

The Third Master of the Tang Dynasty tried his best to plan for Wu Yetong, so that the orphan girl from a branch of the Wu family had no choice but to go to the Wu family of the Taipu Temple in the capital.

Three years later, Wu Yetong has become a pretty girl. Mr. Tang has always been thinking about her marriage and has been thinking about the candidate.

Recently, he has been listening to his wife, Xiao Xiao, whispering about what kind of wife he should choose for his son Tang Wenhong. The more he heard it, the more he began to think about bringing the two of them together to make a good match.

The identity of the orphan girl from Wu Yetong's branch was somewhat incompatible with the legitimate son of Duke Wenhong of Tang Dynasty. Mr. Tang San had never found a good opportunity to show off his cards to Xiao Shao.

Tang Wenhong never cared about marrying a wife and having children. No matter how unreliable his parents were, they would not marry him an unscrupulous girl. He was happy to wait for a ready-made match.

However, Tang Sanye and his wife began to compete with each other over this marriage, and no one was willing to give in.

Although Xiao Shao didn't attach much importance to family status, her status as an orphan from a branch of the Wu family really made her accept her incompetence.

Even though her son Tang Wenhong is white, he is still the direct grandson of the Duke's family, and he is still a wealthy young man from a high family. Miss Wu's status is really too low.

Little Shao was afraid that her daughter-in-law would come in. She was a petty little girl, and she was fostered in the direct branch of the Wu family. Who knew whether she would be well-educated? She didn't dare to judge Mrs. Taipu Siqing with the heart of a holy mother.

All in all, Xiao Shao felt that the marriage would not work out and she did not agree.

Tang Sanye and Wu Jiang had a life-long friendship. Wu Jiang only had this one relative in the world, so he naturally wanted to help her within his ability.

Xiao Shao and Mr. Tang Sanye grew up as childhood sweethearts. Over the years, they had a deep relationship and rarely even got into red-faced quarrels. This time, it was mainly because Xiao Shao was more insistent.

Little Shao could turn a blind eye to some of Mr. Tang's affairs. The couple usually had discussions, but when it came to their children, Little Shao was extremely principled.

In the past, Master Tang San could make Xiao Shao accept it happily with some coaxing, but now the conflict becomes even more serious.

The third couple in the Duke's mansion had been married for 20 years, and for the first time they separated because of their son's marriage.

Tang Bingyu, the aunt of the third bedroom, took her child back to her parents' home to visit relatives and found out about this incident. She heard the reason from her mother's old servant.

"Mom, Brother Hong is the only son of our family. My father will never harm him. How about we, mother and daughter, go meet this young lady from the Wu family?"

There is a saying in the art of war: "Know yourself and the enemy and you will be victorious in any battle."

Instead of the parents being separated and in a stalemate in the house, it would be better to go and meet the rightful owner. They can talk about other things after meeting the person. After Jiang Shunian and other six people entered the Mysterious Forest, they successfully passed through most of the dense forest due to the effect of the Jiedu Pills. However, the journey was not always smooth.

They were afraid of killing the poisons directly along the way. The smell of blood would attract more poisons to them, so they could only kill them with medicine.

The poisons in the forest accumulated in the body over the years are extremely poisonous. Ordinary poisons are just snacks to them. Jiang Shunian can only use the most powerful poison in his hand.

This was Tang Bingxuan's poison specially prepared for him out of fear that he would be ambushed in danger. The drug was extremely powerful and was even more effective than a sharp knife that could seal his throat with blood.

As long as it is contaminated even a little bit, no matter whether it is a human being or any other living creature, it is impossible to survive.

Since the medicine is so effective, the materials needed are extremely rare, so Tang Bingxuan only made a small bottle for Jiang Shunian to defend himself.

There were too many poisons in the forest, and it was impossible for Jiang Shunian to escape with only this small amount of poison. The six of them tried their best to drive away the poison without causing wounds. If that didn't work, they would kill him and dig a deep hole to bury him. This journey for the six of them was really dangerous and extremely difficult.

However, they were fortunate to be following Jiang Shunian on this mission, because they relied more on Jiang Shunian's pills to survive in the Mysterious Forest.

They probably walked for more than a long time before leaving the Mysterious Forest, and finally saw the desert in the Rong Kingdom. The six of them felt more like being reborn after a disaster.

After the six people left the Lost Forest, they drank water to quench their thirst and satisfy their hunger. They had almost finished eating the dry food before, and the rest became poisonous food and could not be eaten all the way in the Lost Forest.

At this time, they were still about dozens of miles away from the Rong Kingdom's military camp. They had survived more than half of the journey ahead, so the desert of these dozens of miles was not difficult.

Fortunately, it will get dark soon. They will not be too exposed to the sun while walking in the desert, and their body moisture will not be lost quickly.

In the middle of the night, six people approached the Rongguo military camp.

"You stay here and keep watch while the others work separately to find the location of the food and fodder and send the signal and wait for my instructions."

The one on guard outside the camp was one of the royal guards who was good at hiding and could warn the five of them at any time in case of emergencies.

Jiang Shunian assigned tasks to several people, and at the same time, one person took a life-saving pill.

Life-saving pills can be used in critical moments to delay death and preserve a glimmer of life while waiting for treatment. They ate a full meal of dry food while running around, and it is normal for them to be physically hungry.

This life-saving pill was developed from a century-old mountain ginseng, and it barely provided nutrition to the body. Jiang Shunian didn't want to go through ninety-nine steps and fail in the last step because of hunger.

At this time, some officers and soldiers on night duty in the Rongguo military camp were very tired and taking a nap late at night, while the rest gathered around to drink and make money.

The five people acted separately, each searching in their own area, and finally discovered the Rong Kingdom's granary in an extremely inconspicuous hiding place.

"Hiss. Mimi"

Suddenly two sounds of sand dune cats were heard.

The vigilant Rong soldiers asked suspiciously: "Is there something wrong?"

"Haha, you are just a nocturnal sand dune cat who meows twice. Come on, keep playing."

The five people quickly met at the grain and grass shed. Jiang Shunian each handed them a bottle and motioned to scatter the contents on the inner roof of the grain and grass shed.

A few people carefully scattered the things and waited for Jiang Shunian's order to light the fire. But Jiang Shunian actually ordered them to leave quickly?

Although they didn't know what Jiang Shunian's intentions were, he was the commander of this mission, and they could only obey the order and leave quietly.

The six people quickly left the Rongguo military camp and were in no hurry to return. They looked different from the local Rongguo people and were easily recognized by others, so they could only take shelter nearby temporarily.

When he was just checking the location of the food and grass, Jiang Shunian found the enemy's kitchen and stole some meat and dry food to fill his stomach.

"Commander Jiang, why didn't we just set fire to the food and grass?"

Three of the six people are Jiang Shunian's own people. Even if they don't know the leader's plan, they will not question Jiang Shunian's decision. But the two secret guards of the Holy Emperor are different.

They were members of the Holy Sage. Although they had to obey Jiang Shunian's command for this mission, they were really puzzled that the great opportunity they just had was not used.
