Rebel

After Chen Jiang left, Yu Junfan got up, walked to Gu Ao's side and sat down, with his screen backed away.Gently squeezed Gu Ao's shoulders, Yu Junfan said: "Dian Buzhi came back recently to entertain rewards, there are many county affairs, and the world is not peaceful, are you tired these days?"

Gu Ao opened his eyes: "...It's okay."

Yu Junfan said: "Although we expected such a day to come, we really didn't expect it to come so soon. Now that Yongchi has taken such a heavy hand and directly imprisoned the emperor in the deep palace, it seems that his determination has been made. It is necessary to prepare early.”

Gu Ao nodded: "I know."

Yu Junfan raised his hand, and slowly combed the hair on the back of Gu Ao's head: "Are you still worried about Rongdi?"

Gu Ao said: "...Before the Southern Expedition, I didn't see Huai Xin, I still felt a little uneasy."

"He and Dian Bushi are guarding the Rong land, and they have complemented each other in these years. It is not difficult for you to meet him, but you have to wait for Dian Bushi to return to the Rong land first, and then Huai Xin comes here, otherwise the people in the Rong land Xiaoxiao's generation, seeing that the two generals have gone to Yuyang, I'm afraid they will take the opportunity to make trouble."

Gu Ao said: "Recently there is turmoil in Rong, the new king of Rong, the new king of Rong, there are many things waiting for them to deal with. Dian does not know how to leave Rong, there are other generals who can be driven, but if Huai Xin leaves Rong, , There are so many affairs in Rongdi, who is the backbone? Huai Xin can't come to Yuyang, why don't I go to Beidi to meet him, and see how well he has managed the Rong, and listen to his opinion on going south. "

Yu Junfan said: "If today's situation is about to change, it may not be appropriate for the King of Han to move lightly."

Gu Ao sighed, and stood up: "Jun Fan, it is precisely because the sky is about to change, I have to go to Rongdi to tidy up the rear, so that I can give it a go one day in the future."

Yu Junfan lowered his head: "That's fine, it's up to you, but I want to send more people to guard you, and tomorrow I will call back the White Feather Army stationed at the ranch."

Gu Ao patted the back of Yu Junfan's hand: "Let's go with the light car, it's a big fan, but it attracts attention. Besides, if you don't know the code, what are you afraid of?"

Yu Junfan raised his face: "We have traveled all the way, Hanzhong, Guizhou, and Yuyang. We have finally come to where we are today. There are cities and soldiers, so there must be no mistakes."

Gu Ao said: "I don't have much time to go to Rongdi this time. Words and words are very fast. Now that the world is turbulent, things are also very fast. If you are really worried, just send more dark songs to follow me. It's time to deploy the defense and call the Baiyu army, and the time is delayed."

Yu Junfan said: "Are you leaving now?"

Gu Ao said: "Dian Bushi and I will go to Rongdi together, and we will leave in the afternoon."

Yu Junfan said: "...that's all right."

"I'll be gone for ten days. If anything happens, we'll contact you by letter."

Yu Junfan said: "Be careful."

Gu Ao smiled: "Yes."

On the same day, Gu Ao and Dian Bushi embarked on the journey back to Rongdi, and Yu Junfan went to the city gate to see him off.Dian Bushi and Gu Ao rode in the same car, heading north.Dian Bushi smiled and said: "Brother, the last time I rode with you day and night was when we were traveling around the world. At that time, we just arrived at the northern border, and the snowflakes were falling. It was the prefect Yu who sent you off in Shangjing. They took our clothes and furs and protected us from the cold, thinking about it now, it’s as vivid as if it happened yesterday.”

Gu Ao nodded, and said with a smile: "I also remember, at that time, you said that you wanted to learn from the King of the Great Tomorrow, and that you wanted to stand up for the poor families in the world. Since then, you have looked down on Yong Chi, and you even scolded him during the banquet."

Dian Bushi sneered: "I still look down on him, what is he? We are fighting against the army here, and he doesn't say he won't help, but makes trouble as much as he wants. He is also worthy to be the regent? I His younger sister's debt is also counted against him, and I will not spare him in the future."

Gu Ao said: "I have always kept the matter of revenge for the little girl in my heart."

Dian Bushi fell silent, and after a while he said: "Brother, it's been a long time since we sat and chatted together, and there was no one else, just like before, let's talk about something interesting."

Gu Ao smiled wryly: "...Well then, do you know? Liao Qinghui is promising now. He has been promoted to General Zuo of the Rebel Army, commanding [-] light cavalry under his tent. He has fought against the Rong all these years and won consecutive battles. I heard that he Among those aristocratic families in Jiangqu and Hejian, the prestige is not high. How about it, when you first saw him, did you think of him today?"

Dian Buzhi chuckled: "I didn't expect that! I didn't expect that! The first time I saw him in the annex, he backed away in fright. I thought to myself why this kid is so timid! I didn't expect him to be really annoying today. Look forward to it!"

"War experienced people."

"That's right, there are people in the Chen family. I used to think that Chen Jiang was still a man. At least when I was a child, I didn't run away. The others were just useless. I didn't expect that they came to give me congratulatory gifts this time. He's smart, majestic, and looks like a dog."

"Look at what you said. You are also a educated person, why do you speak so vulgarly?"

"Hey! I'm telling the truth, really, they are really like this."

While the two were talking, they arrived at Rongdu just after dawn the next day.This is the first time that Gu Ao has seen the appearance of Rongdu. Although the large population, the number of horses, cattle and sheep, and the number and equipment of the army have long been known from countless reports that Huai Xin and Dian don't know, but Gu Ao made people slow down the car and prepared horses, and went to several military camps together with Dian Bushi.

Dian Buzhi said: "The Xi Daying camp here is a mixture of the three thousand Han troops and Rong people I brought earlier, and now it belongs to King Rong's imperial guards. Huai Xin and I are the soldiers. A while ago Huai Xin found someone to teach them Chinese and Chinese etiquette in the camp. Now that the spirit of Rong is withered, but Yuyang is prosperous, let them learn Chinese and do business with the Han people. They are very important for their future livelihood. happy to."

Gu Ao pursed his lips: "There are some people who are not happy. It is said that there are several groups of people who are unwilling to speak disrespectful words and respect Han etiquette. After investigation, they are related to the assassination of the Queen Rong and the two princes of East and West. It has been dealt with by military law, isn't it?"

"Brother, how do you know?" Dian Bushi chuckled, and let out a trace of turbidity in his mouth: "On my territory, do they still have a share? I am the biological father of King Xiaorong, and what I say is the same in Rongdi." imperial decree."

Gu Ao raised his eyebrows slightly, and said again: "Huai Xin is in Xi Daying today?"

Dian Buzhi said: "The person who came to report just now said that he is training soldiers there again. Brother, let's ride faster, we will arrive at Xidaying in a while."

Gu Ao and Dian Bushi were followed by teams of guards, and the flag representing Dian Bushi's name was fluttering in the wind. They met Rong people on the way, and they didn't know who Gu Ao was, and they all bowed to Dian Bushi to pay tribute to the king. Dian Bushi nodded slightly in return.

Soon they came to Xidaying, Dian Bushi just arrived in front of the gate, before he got off his horse, he shouted loudly: "Brother-in-law, do you see who is here?"
