Chapter 213 Saving Wei Bo 7
Chapter 213 Saving Wei Bo 7
Song Ying was under a tight time limit for the mission. There were only ten days left out of the fifteen days. He asked the butler to go to the city to get a pass and summon the Chu family's guards. After a day of rest, he had to escort Wei Boxi to the military camp to take over the army in the southwest.
Fortunately, the Chu family has a wide influence in the southwest, otherwise the housekeeper would not have been able to complete the process of issuing travel permits within one day.
In order not to attract attention on the road, Song Ying, Wei Bozhi and the guards who accompanied them all dressed up as young masters traveling with their wives, and were accompanied by many servants and guards.
The next morning, Song Ying was waiting at the gate of the manor. She also checked the people and belongings she brought along the way. She took this opportunity to look at the map. The words "water routes are blocked" on the map had turned gray, and there was no new information at the moment.
Song Ying thought about it and decided that it was not a critical moment, so he did not show it on the map.
There were still a lot of medicinal materials prepared by the doctors in the car, but time was tight and she couldn't prepare too much. Song Ying decided that if there was still time when she arrived at the destination, she would go to the nearby towns to collect another batch.
After Wei Bozhi got on the carriage, Song Ying naturally followed him in. This carriage was different from the previous one.
The carriage was pulled by two horses. The compartment was spacious and padded with thick leather to reduce bumps. In the middle of the compartment was a small fixed coffee table with tea sets on it.
There was even a bookshelf in the corner. After a closer look, Song Ying found that most of the books were storybooks, probably placed there to prevent people from getting too bored during the journey.
After Wei Bo got in the car, he took out a book and started reading. Song Ying felt that the car was too shaky and reading would make her carsick, so she looked outside from time to time.
This time, with the pass, we can pass through the city, saving a lot of time, and speeding up our progress after leaving the city.
Yesterday, when the butler went into the city to report and do some work, he heard some rumors that General Weibei had died at the hands of pirates.
If such news spread to the northwest, the barbarians there would probably start to rebel. After returning to the manor, the housekeeper informed Song Ying of this matter. Song Ying decided to pass the information to Chu's father through the Chu family's secret line so that he could make some preparations in advance.
What surprised Song Ying was that the journey for the remaining few days was unexpectedly quiet. There were no robbers, and no one sent by Princess Gaoyang appeared.
Song Ying was still wondering whether Luohe had made Princess Gaoyang's people believe that Wei Bozhi was dead that day.
When they were still two days away from their destination, they rested in an inn in a small town that night. Song Ying heard someone passing by on the roof in the middle of the night and was immediately awakened.
He took out his knife and was about to go out to check when he heard voices coming from Wei Bozhi's room next door.
"Has the message been delivered to His Majesty?"
Wei Bozhi lowered his voice on purpose. He should have discovered that Song Ying had good hearing, but he didn't expect that Song Ying's hearing was more than just good but extremely good.
"General, His Majesty's secret order."
Then Song Ying heard the sound of fabric rubbing against each other. The whole process seemed very normal except that Wei Bozhi's breathing became heavier for a moment.
"I will accept your order and live up to your trust."
When Song Ying said this, she heard something different, which seemed a bit regrettable, but she had no choice but to obey.
Is this secret order from Emperor Jingyuan the same secret order to secretly station troops?
Such a thing might be reported as a rebellion by others. If it was really the intention to station troops, I am afraid that Emperor Jingyuan did not have good intentions.
"Your Majesty has already arranged the specific location. The people and food are all there. We are just waiting for the general now."
The person who came to see Wei Bozhi might have been a little excited, and his voice became slightly higher.
Normally, Wei Bozhi believed that such a sound would be enough to wake Song Ying up, so he immediately told the man to shut up.
When Song Ying heard this, she pretended to be woken up and rushed directly to Wei Bozhi's room. After all, according to Chu Pei's personality, he would definitely go to check if he heard a noise.
When Song Ying rushed to Wei Bozhi's door, she had already heard that the person who had come before had left. Song Ying knocked on the door hurriedly.
"General Wei"
Song Ying's big noise naturally attracted the attention of the guard on duty, and someone ran over to inquire.
Before Song Ying was about to speak, Wei Bozhi opened the door to stop Song Ying from speaking any further. He told the guard that there was nothing to worry about and asked him to leave.
Song Ying followed Wei Bozhi into the room. There was no sign of another person in the room. It could be seen that the person was very cautious. Apart from his loud voice which attracted Song Ying's attention, his kung fu was obviously quite good.
After entering the room, Song Ying didn't beat around the bush and asked directly.
"The person coming is yours? Can you trust him? Don't betray me like Wu Jingshu did."
Song Ying's words were naturally an implicit reminder to the other party that the things that person sent might not be credible and needed to be considered.
"Miss Chu, you are worrying too much. The people coming here are not my people, but His Majesty's people. If they can track us here, His Majesty must have known our whereabouts for a long time."
Song Ying was actually a little surprised that Wei Bozhi did not hide the truth, but it was understandable. After all, he was surrounded by people from the Chu family. If the Chu family wanted to do something, no matter how smart he was, he would not be able to resist.
Now someone has come to him and said that he is Emperor Jingyuan's man. That is to tell the Chu family that he has His Majesty behind him, and if there is someone behind him who wants to do something bad to him, they still need to think twice.
"Well, just keep it in mind. I'll go back first. General Wei, go to bed early."
Song Ying came out of Wei Bozhi's room and did not go back to her room. Instead, she walked towards the backyard of the inn. There was a yard there, and she felt that she needed to think about it.
Chu Pei's identity is actually a bit awkward when facing Wei Bozhi. After all, Chu's father is on the side of Emperor Jingyuan, while the Wei family tends to be neutral, that is, they will support whoever is on the throne, as long as they can stay in the Northwest Army.
However, Wei Bozhi agreed to the change of commander only for the sake of Emperor An Jingyuan's heart, but he must have made preparations when he left the northwest. The Wei family has more than just Wei Bo, there are many others serving in the army.
Perhaps Chu's father kept Chu Pei because he wanted Wei Bozhi to fall in love with Chu Pei, but unfortunately it seems that Wei Bozhi has no feelings for Chu Pei at the moment.
In fact, relying on the fact that she is his savior, Chu Pei has the possibility of becoming Wei Bozhi's wife, but now Chu Pei's health is taken care of by Song Ying, and she does not want to make decisions about Chu Pei's life casually, so just pretend that nothing happened.
Emperor Jingyuan wanted Wei Bozhi to help him station troops, so he would need to manage two military camps by himself. The place where Emperor Jingyuan stationed his troops must be not far from the Chu family army camp.
When she got to the location, she needed to look at the nearby mountains. She had seen the mountain under the sea before. It was very tall and such a big mountain must be very conspicuous.
Song Ying went to the room after sitting in the yard for a long time. They got up and set off as usual the next day. The two of them were actually quite awkward in the carriage and no one spoke.
Song Ying didn't know what to say. Wei Bozhi thought that the Chu family was probably trying to get something out of them by doing this, so he just kept silent and read quietly.
