Chapter 134 I will accompany you
Weixi.
It is the fiefdom of Gu Xizhi.
The three of them had a smooth journey with the help of Gu Xizhi's waist card. After asking around along the way, there was no news about the cronies sent by Tong Shouliang to Xiliang.
I don’t know if the three of them were slow on their feet or if they took different paths.
Along the way, Gu Xizhi analyzed the current situation in Xiliang's court bit by bit to Liang Jiangzhi.
The two of them worked together to find an opportunity to intervene.
Traveling by day and staying overnight, we arrived in Weixi.
Liang Jiang felt reluctant to leave.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for taking care of me all the way. Liang Jiang will say goodbye. If he can get his revenge and find evidence of Tong Shouliang's treason and surrender to the enemy, Liang Jiang must go to Weixi in person to thank Your Majesty for his help."
Gu Xizhi reined in his horse and looked in the direction of Xiliang: "You are a woman, alone, rushing into the dragon's pond and the tiger's den. Are you really not afraid?"
"Afraid!" Liang Jiang was very honest.
Gu Xizhi chuckled: "I thought you were not afraid of anything."
Liang Jiang laughed at himself: "When I was in Yuhua Mountain, my uncles and brothers always said that I was bold and liked to cause trouble. In fact, I was sure that they all favored me, so I relied on favors and became arrogant. Impulsive, reckless, and reckless temper.
In fact, I am very timid. I am afraid of the dark, clouds in the sky at night, and thunder on rainy days. I am afraid of many things.
This time I went to Xiliang, not to mention the many crises. I was afraid in my heart. Even on the way to Xiliang, I was afraid that I would get lost. Just bite the bullet and show off. "
Gu Xizhi said calmly: "Then I will go with you."
Liang Jiang was stunned: "Are you kidding me? Going to Xiliang is not a joke."
"You are a woman who dares to take risks alone. What do I have to fear?" Gu Xizhi emphasized: "The Duke is also kind to me."
But I'm afraid! You are a majestic prince!
"In the past twenty years or so, Chang'an and Xiliang have been fighting non-stop, and countless soldiers have died. The people of Xiliang must hate Chang'an deeply. You have fought against Xiliang soldiers several times. I'm afraid someone will find out your identity. Too It’s dangerous.”
"Then I'll give you my life."
Liang Jiang was startled again: "You don't owe me."
Gu Xizhi turned his head and said with a playful look on his face: "Don't you remember?"
Liang Jiang frowned suspiciously: "Remember what? Have I ever saved you?"
Gu Xizhi smiled slightly: "Guess."
"Can't guess."
"Have you saved many people?"
Liang Jiang tilted his head: "I don't know if I have saved many people, but I know that if I had saved you, I would definitely remember it. After all, there are not many people as handsome as the prince. "
Gu Xizhi just smiled meaningfully: "Then think about it slowly."
He flicked the reins of the horse in his hand and passed.
Liang Jiang still refused to give up and chased after her: "But aren't you going back to Weixi to take the concubine back to Beijing? How will you explain to the emperor later?"
"Isn't the matter of family and country more important than the personal relationship between children? Not only will my brother not blame me, but he will also reward me."
"But……"
"Nothing but, I have made my mind up. Watch the chess game and go back and send a message to the concubines so that they will not worry about it."
Guan Qi responded, turned his horse's head, and when passing by Liang Jiang, he also lowered his voice and uttered two words: "Stupid."
"Hey..." Liang Jiang wanted to settle the score with Guan Qi, but suddenly he suddenly remembered the question he asked Gu Xizhi when he said that to him.
Concealing the truth...
Your Majesty, do you have any confidential matters that need to be dealt with?
Liang Jiang suddenly understood, as if someone had hit him with a stick, he froze in place.
Could it be that Gu Xizhi wanted to accompany him to Xiliang from the very beginning?
In other words, he invited the concubine to Beijing just to have a legitimate excuse.
Going forward and boldly extrapolating, could it be that he agreed to marry Jian Shuyan at this time, either sooner or later, just to have an excuse to leave Beijing?
Last time he proposed to go to Xiliang in person, he made him wait and made several excuses. Not at all. The main reason is to make yourself wait for him, right?
Are you a bit...arrogant?
She was even startled by the childish idea that suddenly came to her.
Gu Xizhi just remembered his father's support for him in the military camp, so he did his best. What was he thinking about?
She clearly knew that Gu Xizhi went to Xiliang with her today because of his painstaking efforts, but she did not dare to ask for fear that he would laugh at her.
For the rest of the journey, only two people were left.
Because of the shyness of a young girl's first love, Liang Jiang no longer chatted and laughed like she did when Guan Qi was around.
There seemed to be an inexplicable emotional barrier between the two of them just because of the word "watching chess carelessly".
When Gu Xizhi faced Liang Jiang, he felt a little uncomfortable that was not easily noticeable.
Sometimes when the two people's eyes met, they would all turn away in unison, their hearts beating fast.
Crazy, simply crazy.
Liang Jiang cursed himself secretly. Could it be that he had forgotten his situation? He actually had unwanted thoughts about this man who was as unattainable as the bright moon in the sky.
It is not very far from Weixi to Xiliangguan.
Because the two people's trip was confidential and for fear of being discovered by Tong Shouliang's spy at Xiliang Pass, Gu Xizhi did not reveal his identity.
Liang Jiang also disguised herself as a man, and the two of them changed into businessman attires. They inquired about the government office where Vice General He was located. It was almost noon.
The government office is heavily guarded and it is not easy to see Vice General He.
The two of them did not come rashly, but filled their stomachs and drank some tea at a tea stall not far from the government office.
From time to time, he looked at the people coming and going at the entrance of the government office.
Before the pot of tea was finished, the two were surrounded by several soldiers.
The tea stall owner pointed at the two of them and said with great certainty: "They are the two who have been staring at the door of the government office. They also mentioned that General He was acting suspiciously. They must be spies sent by Xiliang."
The leading soldier looked up and down at the two calm people and asked, "Where did they come from?"
Liang Jiang and Gu Xizhi looked at each other. Unexpectedly, the people at the gate here were quite vigilant.
Gu Xi took his time and said, "Weixi."
"what for?"
"The fur business."
"What do you want to gain?"
Gu Xizhi looked at Liang Jiang.
Liang Jiang took his time and said, "I want to collect some fine snow wolf skins."
"Come empty-handed?"
"I brought some tea, and I took action before I even got here."
"Receipt?"
Gu Xizhi shook his head: "No."
"No?" The soldier suddenly became alert: "Didn't anyone check the receipt along the way?"
Liang Jiang said: "It was lost halfway. General He and I are fellow villagers in Fucheng. We just want to wait for him to come out and ask him to help re-write the prescription."
The leader of the soldiers waved his hand: "There is no receipt and the behavior is suspicious. Take the prison first and wait for General He to come back for interrogation before dealing with him."
The soldiers immediately swarmed behind him.
Gu Xizhi and Liang Jiang looked at each other and did not resist.
Liang Jiang took out a silver ingot and quietly handed it to the leader: "When General He comes back, please let me know immediately and say that an old friend from Fucheng is here and wants to ask for something."
The leader was a poor man on errands. When he saw the money, he immediately stopped making things difficult for the two of them and ordered the soldiers behind him: "Good luck guarding them."
Soldiers take orders.
Liang Jiang and Gu Xizhi were imprisoned in the prison until it got dark, and then they heard footsteps coming from outside.
