Daqian Night Emperor

Chapter 332: Run Away When You See Her
The outskirts of Tianyuan County are covered with dense vegetation and many dense forests.

The official road along the way was also opened up in the forest, with tall trees on both sides. Even when the sun was shining directly overhead, the sun was blocked by the dense treetops on both sides of the road, making the road look gloomy.

Lin Wenxu followed the team for half an hour, holding a standard military wooden spear in his hand, and felt his mouth dry and his legs sore.

A scholar like him, who holds a high position, usually travels in a carriage. How could his physical strength compare to that of the soldiers around him?
He just felt that the wooden gun in his hand was too heavy, and he wanted to throw it to the side of the road to lighten the burden.

"When will the troops be divided?"

Lin Wenxu wiped the sweat from his forehead, panting and looking at the front of the team.

At the front of the team was the captain of the Astronomical Observatory, followed by several captains of the palace soldiers and brigade commanders of each team. They were all riding on horses, and their work was much more relaxed than those soldiers who could only walk on foot.

And why did the patrol captain at the front look so young...

Lin Wenxu felt that the face looked familiar, and squinted his eyes to look at it from a distance. Just then, the patrol captain turned his head and talked to someone next to him, allowing Lin Wenxu to see the side profile clearly.

"Captain Cub Tiger?"

Lin Wenxu recognized this person and was slightly surprised, and quickly lowered his head.

Although this young captain of the Astronomical Observatory is not of high rank, he is quite famous in the capital and is considered the most watched among the young people in the capital.

The main thing is that this guy is really good at making trouble. I heard that he even dared to burn down the imperial farm under the prince!
Lin Wenxu and Zhao Guanxiang had met before, and now he was afraid that Zhao Guanxiang would recognize him.

Fortunately, the team now has more than a thousand people, and Zhao Guanxiang obviously does not have the time to recognize each of his soldiers one by one.

At this moment, Zhao Guanxiang, who was at the front of the team, suddenly raised his hand and made a gesture, and then the flag bearers on both sides began to ride their horses towards the rear.

"First Battalion, follow me!"

"Second Battalion..."

The troops are finally divided!

Lin Wenxu breathed a sigh of relief, and his tired body seemed to have some strength. He held the gun and started to move along with the soldiers around him.

……

At this moment, Zhao Guanxiang really didn't notice that a big fish had mixed into the team behind him.

After dispersing his troops, he said to the people around him: "General Zhang, you lead your brothers to patrol normally. I have to act alone."

Zhang Juzheng rode up to him and asked worriedly, "Are you traveling alone again? You brought me here specially to cover for you, right?"

Now that Brother Gao needs someone to take care of him, Zhang Juzheng is actually not very willing to come out, but he had to agree after being nagging by Zhao Guanxiang.

Zhao Guanxiang smiled and said, "It's not a cover. It's a task given to me by General Ling. It's just that it's not convenient for too many people to go, so I'll go alone to keep it a secret."

Zhang Juzheng looked at him suspiciously: "Really?"

Zhao Guanxiang immediately said, "What are you talking about? You and I are brothers, how can I lie to you? But now you have accumulated enough military merits for you to be promoted to a lieutenant, so don't get involved in this matter. You and Brother Gao should return to Beijing in a while."

Zhang Juzheng hesitated for a moment and said, "I, I want to stay for a while longer."

"No need. No matter how many military achievements you make, at most you will only gain more merit points, and that's the limit of your promotion to lieutenant."

What Zhao Guanxiang said was true, because official positions above the rank of colonel were not only related to merit, but also to one's own strength, which had to be at least at the level of a celestial being.

Zhang Juzheng's talent is not very good, and now he is only at the sixth level of Huasha. After returning to the capital, he can use his merit points to exchange for some treasures from the prison, and he should be able to be promoted to the fifth level of Zhoutian within a year. However, he is still a long way from the realm of heaven and man, and being promoted to a captain is already his limit.

But Zhang Juzheng shook his head and said, "I want to accumulate more merit points, so that I can ask the Imperial Master to come to my rescue once more."

His idea is a bit wishful thinking.

The merit points required for the national master to take action once are almost astronomical.

That is not the amount of merit a brigade commander can earn.

But Zhao Guanxiang did not pour cold water on him. He just patted his shoulder and said, "Don't you still have me?" "But you..."

"Don't worry, it's just an additional 300,000 merit points. What's more, Brother Gao suffered a work-related injury, so we should at least give him a discount, right?" Zhao Guanxiang looked like he was not worried about the debt, and smiled to comfort him, "I'll take care of everything."

Zhang Juzheng was quite moved: "Captain Zhao..."

Zhao Guanxiang waved his hand casually: "Alright, forget the corny words."

Unexpectedly, Zhang Juzheng shook his head and said, "No, I just want to confess something."

Zhao Guanxiang glanced at him warily: "What have you done to offend me?"

Zhang Juzheng said ashamedly: "Actually, my wife sent me a letter yesterday. There is something I didn't tell you..."

"What's the matter?"

"My humble sister came to the capital to visit you. She seemed very satisfied with you and seemed to have come to Jingzhou to look for you."

"Nonsense." Zhao Guanxiang said dissatisfiedly, "Jingzhou is so dangerous, and you come here to look for me? Okay, I know what you mean. When I meet her, I will definitely send her back to Kyoto City..."

"No, that's not what I meant!"

Zhang Juzheng interrupted him and said sincerely: "If you see her, run away quickly!"

Zhao Guanxiang was stunned: "What do you mean?"

Zhang Juzheng asked, "What do you think of my wife?"

Zhao Guanxiang thought for a moment and said, "My sister-in-law has a bad temper."

"Compared to my aunt, my wife is gentle and lovely."

Zhang Juzheng looked at him with some sympathy in his eyes: "When you see her, don't even think about fighting her, just run away as soon as possible!"

Zhao Guanxiang reacted and sneered, "How ridiculous! With my strength, why would I run away just because I saw a woman?"

He pulled the reins and turned the horse around: "Okay, let's go!"

"Eh……"

Zhang Juzheng wanted to say something, but Zhao Guanxiang had already ridden away.

He looked at the direction where Zhao Guanxiang left, hesitated for a long time, and then sighed: "But your strength... is not enough in front of my aunt."

……

"drive!"

Zhao Guanxiang ran towards Liuxi Village.

He had indeed accepted Ling Fang's mission, which was to investigate several Jingzhou families that were involved with the Salvation Church.

But before leaving, he had to go and see his third sister.

"I wonder if Third Sister has moved to another place."

Zhao Guanxiang was still thinking about this before he arrived at Liuxi Village.

But fortunately, when he arrived at Liuxi Village, he found someone guarding the village gate.

The people guarding the village gate soon discovered that someone was riding a horse towards Liuxi Village and immediately became alert.

At this moment, Zhao Guanxiang held up a jade tablet:
"I am Zhao Guanxiang from the Zhao Family Charity Hall. Are you a brother from the Tianyuan Escort Agency?"
