Chapter 305 Return safely
Chapter 305 Return safely
After Robi left, Yuwen Qian began to think:
Now that Shui Changqing has been rescued, the imperial court has no more concerns, and it is estimated that the two sides will go to war in the next period of time.
She had to take advantage of the chaos to escape from Nanling through a small path.
There are not many roads in Nanling, but there are roads (mountain trails) everywhere.
Yuwen Qian had already hidden a large amount of gold and jewelry in Yuncheng, so she only needed to take her personal belongings and a few close confidants with her.
……
After leaving Yuwen Qian, Luo Buyi went to find Mu Yiyang.
"Tusi, Mu Yili returned to Nanling a few days ago. She came to us and asked us to join forces with the imperial court to attack Nanling.
I pretended to agree to her request and asked to meet with someone who had a say in the court.
A man named Shui Changqing came to the court. I heard that he was the head of the Shui family and also the military supervisor of this court. I arrested him when he was returning.
I originally wanted to get some information from him about the military so I could tell the chieftain, but I didn't expect him to be rescued last night."
After hearing what Luo Buyi said, Mu Yiyang panicked for a moment: "You said Mu Yili persuaded you to join forces with the imperial court to attack Nanling?"
"Indeed, many clan leaders have agreed to cooperate with the court."
"Which families are there?"
Robbie said.
Mu Yiyang summoned the nobles who supported him to discuss matters.
After everyone arrived, Mu Yiyang asked Luo Buyi to tell the story again.
"Everyone, what do you think should be done with Chief Shi and the others?"
Just as Patriarch Shi expected:
The relationships among the Nanling nobles were too complicated. After discussing for a while, everyone finally decided to first take custody of those families that had connections with the court.
Wait until the matter is over before deciding what to do.
These nobles naturally have their own selfish motives.
They thought that if the imperial court won, they could still find those families to plead with the imperial court.
After everyone agreed, Mu Yiyang sent soldiers to those families and put them under surveillance.
……
In the Shi family's secret place, Shui Changqing returned the Qi Wang waist badge to Ye Wuwei:
"Fortunately, the badge wasn't taken away, otherwise it would have been another problem."
Ye Wuwei took the badge and said, "I'll give it back to Wushuang when we get back."
As the two men talked, the woman they rescued kept listening to their conversation with her ears perked up.
Mu Yili's uncle had already arranged water and food here. Throughout the day, apart from not being able to go out, there were no other inconveniences.
At midnight, Mu Yili's uncle said, "We can set off now."
With Mu Yili's uncle leading the way, Ye Wuwei and the others finally got out of Mu Yiyang's sight at dawn.
Shui Changqing said to the woman following them:
"We are going to the military camp next, so it's not convenient to take you with us. We'll say goodbye now."
The woman said, "I don't have any money on me. Can you lend me some?"
The silver on Shui Changqing's body was taken away by his captors. He turned to Ye Wuwei and said, "Give her some silver."
Ye Wuwei didn't see the woman's appearance and age clearly, he only knew that she was quite skilled because she followed Ye Wuwei out of the Luo family's forbidden area without touching any of the mechanisms.
But since he was imprisoned by Robi for eight years, he must not be very young.
Moreover, the person who was imprisoned in the forbidden area by Robi for eight years must have either a special identity or something that Robi needed.
But the woman didn't want to say it, so Ye Wuwei didn't make things difficult for her.
Ye Wuwei threw the purse to the woman, rode away with Shui Changqing and the others.
The woman looked at Ye Wuwei and the others from behind, and thought that the two leading officials were of good character.
Along the way, the woman knew that Ye Wuwei and Shui Changqing were both the new emperor's confidants. With such good character confidants, the new emperor must be not too bad, right?
She had learned a lot of skills from her master since she was young, and she was unwilling to let them go to waste.
Especially since he was imprisoned for eight years and wasted eight years.
If the new emperor is a good person, could she consider working for the court and using her acquired skills to benefit the people?
But if the new emperor is as sinister and narrow-minded as the previous one, she would not be willing to sell herself to the court.
The woman thought about it and decided to go to Chamdo.
After arriving in Chamdo, she would get to know the new emperor and then consider whether she should work for the court.
……
A day later, Ye Wuwei and his men returned to the military camp stationed on the border of Huishui and Nanling.
Qi Kangping breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Shui Changqing return safely.
If something happens to Shui Changqing, his contribution this time will be greatly reduced.
Ye Wuwei said goodbye to Shui Changqing: "Master, the Qi'an tribe has a lot of things to do, I will return to Qamdo first."
The purpose of Ye Wuwei's trip was only to rescue Shui Changqing. Now that Shui Changqing has been rescued, he no longer interferes with Qi Kangping's leadership of the army.
Shui Changqing nodded: "Okay, be careful on the way back."
Ye Wuwei took out a medicine bottle:
"Here is Mu Yili's antidote. Once we invade Nanling, you will give the antidote to Mu Yili."
After Ye Wuwei led Yao Guangzhi and others away, Qi Kangping and Shui Changqing and others agreed to attack Nanling the next day.

Qamdo
When Ye Wuwei and his companions returned to Chamdo, it was already the end of the hour of midnight and the city gates of Chamdo were closed.
Ye Wuwei ordered Yao Guangzhi to go forward and knock on the door.
When the guards of the city saw Ye Wuwei illuminated by candlelight from the high city wall, they hurriedly went down the wall and opened the city gate.
"Commander."
Ye Wuwei threw a money bag to the guards who opened the city gate and said, "I'm late for the mission, give some to the brothers."
The guards hurriedly thanked him.
Yao Guangzhi smiled and said, "Sir, your face is the best excuse. There is no need to check it."
No matter whether it was the personal guards responsible for protecting Qi Wushuang, or the imperial guards responsible for guarding and patrolling Changdu City, there was no one among the tens of thousands of imperial guards in the entire Changdu City who did not know Ye Wuwei.
No one dared to disobey Ye Wuwei.
There is no way around it. This is the order issued by Nie Youren, the commander of the Imperial Guard.
Even Nie Youren himself obeyed Ye Wuwei's orders.
After entering the city, Ye Wuwei parted ways with Yao Guangzhi and the others:
"I'll give you two days off, and then go to Qi'an to complete the mission.
The bonus for this mission has been doubled."
After following Ye Wuwei for a long time, Yao Guangzhi became very shameless: "Sir, it would be best to give the brothers a promotion."
Ye Wuwei laughed and scolded, "You're the only one who asks for too much."
After scolding Ye Wuwei, he urged his horse to go to the palace.
The people who went to Nanling with Yao Guangzhi were all his confidants, who had followed him since he was in Andu. Upon hearing this, they asked:
"Director Bei, are you going to be promoted again?"
Yao Guangzhi glared and said:
"I was only promoted from the sixth rank to the fourth rank. How could it be so fast? I was just asking for a favor on your behalf."
He has no chance of promotion this time, but he will definitely be promoted after Lei Dahong comes back.
It is estimated that Ye Wuwei will promote Lei Dahong to the rank of fifth-rank captain.
It is said that those who follow Ye Wuwei are the ones who get promoted the fastest. For example, Wang Youcai was only a centurion before, but now he is a sixth-rank warrant officer.
Like him, he had fought in the army for so many years, and when he met Ye Wuwei, he was only a seventh-rank captain, but after following Ye Wuwei, his position was promoted very quickly.
It really proves the old saying that "when one person succeeds, the whole family will prosper."
However, not everyone can catch Ye Wuwei's eye and be valued by him.
People like him, Lei Dahong and Wang Youcai all have extraordinary abilities.
