Chapter 362 Yuan Ping Returns North

Chapter 362 Yuan Ping Returns North
Yuan Ping opened and read Xiao Lang's letter, but was caught off guard by what was said in the letter. His feet slipped and he nearly fell from the canopy of the camphor tree in the yard!

Even though there was a commotion, Yuzhen was quick-witted and rushed to remedy the situation. She even kindly persuaded all the maids in the courtyard to leave in case Yuan Ping's whereabouts were exposed!

In response to this, Yuan Ping took a deep breath, adjusted his posture, and steadied himself.

On June 25th, the sky was bright and the temperature was refreshing. It was a rare comfortable day in the summer!
In the courtyard, even though the maid had just been sent out, at this moment, Xiao'e, the mischievous girl, rolled her eyes and did not stop, and started to do something bad!
Wow!

He secretly scooped half a bucket of water from the wooden barrel, and suddenly made a sneak attack, splashing it directly on the eldest sister's back!
"ah?!"

Suddenly, Yuzhen was caught off guard. She had just dealt with Yuan Ping and her mind was not yet fully settled. Then the naughty girl Xiao'e came again behind her!
Caught off guard, Yuzhen arched her body and let out a groan!
He turned his head back and saw Xiao'e's deliberately naughty look, which made him feel angry and amused.

With a chuckle, Yuzhen quickly pouted her lips again.

"Humph!"

"Hey, little E, I think you're itching for trouble again!"

"How dare you throw water at me!"

"See how I punish you!"

As she spoke, Yuzhen smiled widely, reached her hand into the wooden barrel, and no longer cared about anything, and followed Xiao'e out!
For a moment, the two sisters' silver bell-like laughter spread throughout the courtyard.

In the bright daylight, the two of them were standing around the flower garden, splashing water on each other, laughing and playing. Yuan Ping, who was sitting on the crown of a camphor tree not far away, saw the scene and was caught off guard, staring in amazement!

"Ah!"

"Ogawa, Ogawa!"

"You are more blessed than me, kid!"

"If you continue to stay in Yangzhou like this, I'm afraid I will really envy you!"

He kept muttering to himself that it was Yuan Ping, but now he had a wry smile on his face and shook his head helplessly.

At this moment, I feel envious in my heart, but this is more of a blessing to Xiao Jingchuan!

Take a deep breath!

Yuan Ping collected his thoughts, took one last look at the two sisters Zhen and E in the courtyard, and then he decided to officially evacuate and return north!

Given Yu Yuanping's personality, embarrassing scenes like farewell before departure are the most frightening to him!
So he didn't want to miss this opportunity and went down to say goodbye.

But after traveling south with these two girls for so long, I have some feelings for them.

If I just left without saying anything, it would be a bit rude.

After all, a few nights ago, Yuzhen was still thinking about it and said that she must let him know when she returns north.

So, after thinking it over and over again and hesitating for a while, Yuan Ping let out a long sigh and casually tore off the first page of Xiao Lang's letter.

He also wrapped some small bottles of first aid medicine such as gold wound medicine and hemostatic powder that he had with him into the paper!
"Ugh!"

"Just leave it like that!"

"You two girls, just stay here and wait for Xiao Langnan to come in the future!"

After muttering a few words, Yuan Ping heaved a long sigh of relief, and suddenly threw the paper bag to the side of the flower garden, where Yuzhen and Xiao'e were!
After doing all this, he didn't want to stay any longer. With a leap, he left quietly from the tree top in broad daylight with unexpectedly strange movements!
blah blah blah!

In front of the flower garden, the two sisters were still playing and laughing when they suddenly heard a noise and saw a paper bag suddenly falling in front of them.

Yuzhen stopped, picked up the thing, opened it, and saw some small medicine bottles. Then they both stared at the page of letter!

I recognize all of Xiao Lang’s notes!
Open the letter and read it!

Suddenly, a breeze blew into the courtyard.
Yuzhen turned around and looked up at the camphor tree at the foot of the wall!
It seems like he understood something!
For a long time, I stood there in a daze.
At about noon on the 25th, Yuan Ping took money to choose a fast horse at Shitou Street, mounted the horse, whipped the horse, and fled out of the city!
Heading north, we rode fast towards Yanzhou City in Shandong Province, which was the location Xiao Lang mentioned in the letter!
The expected route is Yangzhou-Huaian-Taoyuan-Xuzhou-Huishan-Qufu-Yanzhou.

The whole journey is about a thousand miles!
After Yuan Ping mounted his horse and galloped away, he did not stop for long along the way!
Rushing there at night, I can't wait to go home!
Two flowers bloom, and two words are spoken!

In Yangzhou in the southern border, Yuan Ping was rushing all the way north!

At that moment in Yanzhou City, Li Huchen, with his own thousand light cavalry, had been marching along the Feicheng-Tai'an-Xintai-Mengyin-Yanzhou route since June 21st. After successfully recaptured several cities, he sent a letter of victory report by express horse to Jinan!
In reply to the previous military order, I am fortunate to have fulfilled the mission!
Not long after, a new order from Xiao Lang was sent back, ordering Li Huchen to temporarily station in Yanzhou city on the grounds of three tasks: occupying the city, raising food supplies, and recruiting soldiers!

We will make plans after Qi Gang, Ma Minglu and other military supply and intelligence teams arrive!
Thus, in the past few days, Yanzhou, an important city in the southern part of Shandong, has been under the rule of Hu Chen!
Time flies, and it’s the 29th!
In Yanzhou city, Hu Chen had been stationed there for eight days. This black servant could not wait for the new order to be dispatched back to the north, so he began to get anxious!
After a long wait, on the afternoon of the 29th, he was drunk and sleeping in the front hall of the government office in the city! Just as he was snoring like thunder!

suddenly!

Several riders rushed towards the gate of the yamen!

"Hahaha"

"General!"

"Hey General!"

"I found it! I finally found it!"

"General!"

Gao Hu, the deputy general of the Tiger Minister's Department, rushed into the yamen in haste. He was a big and strong man, and his voice was like a bell.

At this moment, this guy was roaring as if he had got some treasure, he was impatient and ran into the yamen in a hurry!

In the center of the main hall, Li Huchen, who was lying on the couch, was suddenly startled by the man's voice and stood up cursing!

His eyes were glaring with anger, and he just grabbed the whip and was about to rush forward to hit him!
But when he suddenly heard words like "found it", his eyebrows raised again!
"damn it!"

"Huh? If you have to fart, do it now!"

"Which one did you find? Why are you so happy?!"

Hu Chen just woke up from his sleep, breathing heavily and trying hard to cheer himself up.

"Haha, hahaha."

"Hey General!"

"It's the Dashun bandit who is on the run, the former Yanzhou lieutenant general, Hu Wenlong!"

"I just got the news that this guy and his remaining troops appeared at Xiaoxin Village, 30 miles southeast of the city last night!"

"General!"

"Give me the order!"

"I will immediately call upon a hundred or eighty of my brothers to chase after them!"

"If we can get the head of the bandit general, then our army will have made another contribution!"

"There's no time to lose!"
