Chapter 20 Goodbye Yang Zongbao

With the company of Jinping and Yinping, Mu Guiying did not feel lonely. All the way north, Mu Guiying and the two sisters played together and almost forgot their purpose. The three of them are about the same age, and it doesn't take long, just like friends who have known each other for many years are about to go crazy. Fortunately, Jin Ping was more rational and didn't forget where Mu Guiying was going.

The three missed many towns because they were greedy for fun. Jin Ping found a small county town more than ten days later before dark. After asking the people in the county, the three knew that they would get out of the county and reach Suizhou in a day and a half.

Mu Guiying was very happy to arrive in Suizhou and decided to rest in this small county for one night and set off again tomorrow. Jin Ping and Yin Ping had no objection and began to look for inns. But looking around, the three of them could only look at the big inn opposite and live in the small inn.

Because a team of soldiers chartered the largest inn in the county, Mu Guiying and the other three had to live in a dilapidated inn nearby. Jin Ping and Yin Ping didn't care about the dilapidation of the inn, but Mu Guiying has always been used to enjoying it, but she can't stand the strange smell in the inn. After thinking about it, Mu Guiying went out of the inn and came to the big inn when the two sisters were not paying attention.

Mu Guiying just wanted to enter the inn to discuss with the shopkeeper whether he could pour out a room, but he saw two people coming out of the inn. Seeing one of them clearly, Mu Guiying immediately flashed aside, retreated to the dark, and patted her heart.

Soon, Mu Guiying suddenly reacted and said to herself, "I forgot. Although I have seen him, he has never seen me and doesn't recognize me. What am I hiding from?

However, despite this, Mu Guiying walked out of the dark but did not go to the big inn, but returned to the small inn diagonally opposite. Jin Ping and Yin Ping wanted to tell Mu Guiying not to go out alone, and finally take any of them. But seeing that Mu Guiying seemed to have something on her mind, she swallowed these words back. After dinner, all three of them rested early.

Mu Guiying was very angry when she listened to the snoring of Jin Ping and Yin Ping. However, she was not angry with the two sisters, but angry that the person she met at the door of the inn made her insomnia.

When he came back at the gate of the inn, Mu Guiying met none other than Yang Zongbao. At that time, Mu Guiying looked at Yang Zongbao carefully. The eyebrows are like paint, the eyes are like stars, the bridge of the nose is high, and the face is like a silver basin. Wearing a purple-gold crown on his head, with a trembling and tall pheasant tail. Wearing a pair of goose lock armor, the heart-protector flashed with dazzling brilliance. He is really handsome and handsome.

Handsome man, what a handsome man. Mu Guiying has never found that she still has some 'nymphomaniac' potential. Is it possible that the men she saw in her previous life are a little 'mother', so today when she sees a handsome and sunny boy, she will have insomnia. Fortunately, Mu Guiying closed her mouth again and said secretly, very good. I didn't fall in love with Yang Zongbao at first sight as said in the storytelling. It's just appreciation, appreciation. Everyone likes to see beautiful things...

Thinking, thinking, Mu Guiying slowly fell asleep. In the dream, Mu Guiying seemed to return to Mu Kezhai, and Yang Zongbao came to borrow the dragon wood. As if he said something, he captured him back to the village. After that, it seemed that Yang Zongbao was released again, but I don't know why I rode down the mountain. After that, Mu Guiying woke up.

"Sister Ying, what's wrong with you?"

"I had a dream all night. I'm so tired."

"What kind of dream will you be so tired?"

"I remember it clearly in my dream, but I forgot it when I woke up. I'm so tired."

"Are we still on our way?"

"Why don't you get up? When we finish our work, we will go back to Mukezhai and have a good rest.

With the help of Yin Ping, Mu Guiying got up slowly. When Jin Ping took breakfast, Mu Guiying sat down at the table. Looking at Jin Ping and Yin Ping taking care of themselves without any dissatisfaction, Mu Guiying had a trace of guilt and satisfaction in her heart. In my heart, no wonder rich people hire nannies or something. It feels good to be served.

The three went out of the inn, and Mu Guiying looked diagonally opposite, but found that the soldiers were sorting out the carriages. It seemed that they were going to leave. However, looking at the items on the carriage, Mu Guiying knew that Yang Zongbao was escorting grain and fodder.

Thinking that Yang Zongbao is going to the battlefield at such a young age, I don't know if he can do it. Mu Guiying turned her head and suddenly found a clothing store. With a flash of inspiration, she suddenly had an idea. I called Jin Ping and whispered to her. Jin Ping nodded, but she entered the clothing store with a puzzled face. Soon, Jin Ping came back with a burden. Mu Guiying smiled and waved his hand. The three slowly left the county with a carriage.

As soon as Mu Guiying left, Yang Zongbao walked out of the inn. Seeing that the soldiers were ready, he turned on his horse and set out for Suizhou. Since he knew that his father Yang Liulang was not dead and arrived in Suizhou, Yang Zongbao has always wanted to come and see him. Some time ago, when the border gate was in an emergency, the Liao soldiers invaded a large scale, and soon reached Daizhou. Yang Liulang divided the military situation in Suizhou and felt that the Liao soldiers would soon reach Suizhou. But Suizhou is too small, and there is not much food and fodder to cope with emergencies at all.

So, Yang Liulang's family letter passed to Tianbo Mansion. After asking Kou Zhun and the eight sages to discuss it, she went to the court to ask the emperor Zhao Heng to send grain and fodder to Suizhou, so that Suizhou could support it for a period of time. Zhao Heng was also worried that the Liao soldiers would come to Bianliang, so he immediately agreed and ordered the Yang family to escort grain and fodder. In fact, Zhao Heng was embarrassed to let the Yang family go directly to guard Suizhou, so he had to let the Yang family become a grain and grass official. When they meet the Liao soldiers, the Yang family will naturally not stand by.

But who is Mrs. She? She can see through Zhao Heng's thoughts at a glance. The Yang family was very dissatisfied with the emperor's 'un justice' of the Yang family and did not want to be a grain and grass official. Therefore, Yang Zongbao became the best candidate. Yang Zongbao is the Yang family, of course, as a grain and forage official. But he is too young to escape when he meets the Liao army, no one can say anything. However, the Yang family was also afraid that Yang Zongbao would be young and angry for a while, so they let Meng Liang follow him.

"Stop--rest in place for half an hour and then hurry."

Yang Zongbao saw that his soldiers were a little tired, so he followed Meng Liang's advice and stopped to rest. Yang Zongbao himself wanted to explain it. Seeing that there was a forest nearby, he talked to Meng Liang and got in. Finding a relatively hidden place, Yang Zongbao just wanted to untie his trousers when he heard a strange noise from the depths of the woods.

Yang Zongbao's heart moved and, driven by 'curiosity', quietly walked to the place where the sound was made. Yang Zongbao hid behind a big tree, opened the branches that blocked his vision, and looked inside. I saw an elderly woman fall into the grass, stretching out her hand to grab a small porcelain bottle not far away, and there were some scattered dead branches around the old woman.

When Yang Zongbao saw this, he immediately jumped out and strode forward and said, "What's wrong with you, old man? Do you want this porcelain bottle? I'll bring it to you."

Seeing the old woman nodding, Yang Zongbao immediately picked up the porcelain bottle and put it in the old woman's hand and helped her sit up. The old lady didn't say anything, but quickly opened the porcelain bottle, poured out a black pill, and stuffed it into her mouth. After a long time, the old man took a long breath.

"If the little general hadn't passed by here today, the old man would have died on the spot."

With that, the old man got up tremblingly and wanted to thank Yang Zongbao. Yang Zongbao was willing to let an elderly man give such a big gift to himself. He quickly picked up the old man and smiled, "You don't have to thank me. This is also the old man's good luck, which made me pass by here and do some meager efforts.

"The little general is of a good heart. He will definitely be a great general and marshal in the future."

The old man praised Yang Zongbao and bent down to pick up firewood. Yang Zongbao originally smiled modestly, but it could be seen that the old man's behavior immediately strode forward with great glance, tied up the scattered dead branches and picked them up. He just wanted to say that he wanted to send the old man back, but suddenly thought that he was still escorting food and grass, so he couldn't stop by as before.

So Yang Zong said apologetically, "Old man, I should have sent you home. However, I still have to set up food and fodder, so I can't give it to you."

"No, no, don't look at the old man, but he is in good health." The old lady carried the dead branch behind her, took out a pamphlet from her arms, stuffed it into Yang Zongbao's hand, and said, "There is a family treasure here, and it is useless to put it here. Today, I happened to meet the little general. Let's give it to the little general. I hope the little general will become a general as soon as possible.

"Old man, how can I take your baby? You still take it back..."

"Alas, this baby is put here, which is papyrus. But if you put it with the little general, it will help the little general win the battle. Don't refuse.

When Yang Zongbao heard what the old man said, he was curious and looked down at the book in his hand. It turned out to be a 'marsmanship'. Looking inside, Yang Zongbao became more and more surprised. This 'war art' is really good. But he is also familiar with the classics of soldiers, but he has never seen this 'tactic of war'. Yang Zongbao raised his head and was about to ask who wrote this 'tactic of war', but he had disappeared from the old man.

"How did the old man go silently and did not improve his age at all. Is she a master outside the world who specially came to pass on my 'art of war'?

The more Yang Zongbao thought about it, the more he felt like this. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that he was really good. He got a 'tactic of war' in vain. It seems that the 'dream' of becoming a grand marshal will definitely come true. Yang Zongbao happily put the 'war art' close to his body and listened to Meng Liang's shouts in the distance. Yang Zongbao agreed loudly and quickly ran out of the woods.

When Yang Zongbao ran far away, three people came out of the woods and came to the place where Yang Zongbao had just stayed. These three are Jin Ping, Yin Ping, and Mu Guiying dressed as an old woman...
