Huang Jue, after three marriages

Chapter 362 Aye City
From the place where the goods were transferred to Aye City, it was only about four miles away.

But one has to go through a whole piece of woods.

In winter, only the bare trunks of the deciduous trees are left, but some needle pines are mixed with them, so they still retain some green.

Snow covered it, forming all kinds of beautiful ice crystals.

Su Yue was amazed when she entered, but she didn't have time to look again.

Xie Jue didn't let her ride a mule or a horse, but walked with her hand.

The snow in the forest was deeper, and from time to time there were startled snowdrifts falling on her head, so she had to concentrate on walking.

Not long after walking, a scream was heard from behind.

Su Yue looked back, but saw nothing.

There were many people behind her, and Xie Jue entangled her face so much that only half of her eyes were left...

Xie Jue smiled, looked back and said, "That idiot, who was restless on a horse, was swept away by the ice crystals on the branches."

He is tall, and his face is only half covered, so his vision is of course much better.

However, even if he didn't see it, he knew what happened behind it.

When he came out of Wucheng yesterday, he found that the woods around Wucheng were covered with ice crystals. He heard that fifth master Cheng said that he had to pass through this forest before reaching Aye city, so he didn't let Su Yue ride a horse.

The trees here are probably planted to prevent the cavalry from charging. The branches of the trees are very low. If it is not for the excellent riding skills, it is easy to be hung by the branches.

What's more, the branch is still full of ice crystals now.

Gu Chou Cheng Wuye's team didn't have a single person riding a mule or a horse, but he didn't expect the idiot behind him to ride it.

Looking at the hanging posture, I'm afraid I won't be able to move for a few days.

Really cheap this kid!
Seeing that it was getting dark, Cheng Wuye didn't care about the caravan from the capital saying that some of them had fallen and demanded, etc., and urged everyone to leave quickly, leading Xie Jue to leave the team and speeding up.

Aye City is not the gate city of the Song Dynasty. Aye City will close its gates at some point, and once the gates are closed, no one will be able to open it.

In this kind of weather, it's really not worthwhile to spend the night outside here.

Anyway, he brought that team of people here, and he did his best.

He had met the leader of the caravan twice in the past two years, and he had also walked this way, so he probably knew the rules.

If you know the rules and things like that happen, then you should take care of yourself.

After leaving the woods, the sky had already darkened. From a distance, one could see a bright red city amidst the white snow.

That is the city of Aye.

A group of people speeded up and rushed to the city gate. The giant gate at the gate of the city was making a creaking sound and was about to fall down.

The soldiers at the city gate recognized Wu Ye, seeing him yelling and running towards the city gate, they stopped the door temporarily with a smile, and smiled at him: "Oh, Wu Ye, you are a bit late this year."

Cheng Wuye rushed to the door, threw a bulging purse to each of the soldiers at the door, and said with a smile: "Something happened this year, why, Master Hong didn't leave?"

"No, without making a deal with you, where would Master Hong go?" Following the laughter, a soldier in leather armor came out and smiled at Cheng Wuye.

Fifth Master Cheng beckoned, and one of his subordinates and Xie Jue's steward also ran up, holding a few bolts of silk in one hand, and a large bundle in the other.

Cheng Wuye took something and stuffed it into the soldier's head, saying: "This is my brother. It's the first time he came here. He brought some good silk. It's just right to make clothes for his younger brothers and sisters."

The soldier's head was not polite, he changed hands and put it in the hands of the soldier behind him, and said to Cheng Wuye: "Your brother, that is also my friend, go in quickly, we dare not close the door too late today."

I wanted to say that there was still a group of people behind to tell them to wait, but upon hearing this, Fifth Master Cheng immediately turned to ask, "What's wrong?"

"We have a big shot in our city, and we're nervous now." Bing Bing blinked his eyes at Fifth Master Cheng.

Cheng Wuye waved his hand, and his subordinates immediately sent another big package.

"I specially collected these from Jiangnan this time. The embroidery is very good." Cheng Wuye loosened the bag a little, revealing a purse and a few embroidered handkerchiefs inside, and then put the big bag on the soldier's head. After putting it on, he said: "I'm late this year, I'm afraid I can't afford it, so I'll give it to my wife to play with."

These purse handkerchiefs are not worth anything in Song Dynasty, and you can buy one for a dozen coins in Jiangnan.

But in the country of Rong, it is a tall thing.

Very rare.

Mr. Cheng Wu gave away two packages today, and the soldier head was also happy, and said in a low voice: "You came late this year, maybe it's just luck, the eldest prince of our king came to the city today, and he came over a while ago I have already sent away all the things, and the eldest prince is not happy, so you can send some good things to the eldest prince when you come."

Cheng Wuye's heart skipped a beat, he nodded and said, "Thank you brother for reminding me, if I get it, I will definitely not forget brother!"

The soldier laughed, winked at him, and went back to the room with his things.

Fifth Master Cheng waved his hand to tell people to hurry up and drive mules and horses in. He walked up to Xie Jue and said in a low voice, "The eldest son of the Great King of the Southern Yard has arrived in the city. I heard that this prince has a violent temper. Let's be more careful. Even if you suffer a little, don't offend him, and go back immediately when the goods are delivered tomorrow."

Xie Jue raised his eyebrows slightly, and said in a low voice, "Brother, are you worried?"

Cheng Wuye smiled bitterly, and said: "We are seeking money, but life is more important than money. It is better not to stay in a dangerous place."

Xie Jue nodded slightly: "Understood, thank you brother for reminding me!"

Seeing that he was transparent at one point, Cheng Wuye had a smile on his face, and said in a low voice: "I said you are my brother, you will come with me later, I have a brother in this city, the inn he opened is safer , when we squeeze together, we should all be able to live. Tomorrow morning, you and I will go to see Master Hong. He is the biggest businessman in Beirong, and those excellent wild ginseng furs are all in his hands. Just barter with him."

Xie Jue's face turned slightly tight, and he cupped his fists in a salute and said, "Fifth Master is very kind, brother, remember it!"

Cheng Wuye chuckled, patted his arm (too high to reach his shoulders), and said with a smile: "You are welcome, if it weren't for your help, brother, we are still moving in the snow today, and we can't get in at all today. Yecheng."

And in such a situation, if you arrive one day late, you have to stay one more day, which is also equal to the danger of one more day.

He has been in Aye City for more than ten years, and he is very aware of the importance of Aye City and the customs of the Rong people. Now the eldest son of King Nanyuan has grown up, and now he is in Aye City at this time.

What's more, the leader of the army even specifically said: The eldest prince is not happy!
The few caravans that came in front were all trading with Yeluqi's business firm!

Hearing Cheng Wuye's words, Xie Jue's heart sank slightly.

One day later is dangerous enough to deserve such a thank you from Master Cheng Wu?
With a heartbeat, Xie Jue turned his head to look at Su Yue.

Su Yue raised her head, smiled at him, and said, "Let's go together."

Xie Jue's heart stabilized again, he shook her hand tightly, and nodded.

Yes, no matter how dangerous it is, since it's here, it's safest to be by his side!
