Chapter 781: Guard

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Su Xiaoxiao could feel that Wei Ting was in an extremely good mood. He looked cold and domineering on the surface, but the smugness he inadvertently revealed was like Xiaohu who had eaten pork b.a.l.l.s.

Wei Ting held Su Xiaoxiao’s hand and left the cave.

The two of them saw Xiao Duye and his guards who had been found by Jing Yi. They wouldn’t have known if they hadn’t seen them. They were shocked. It had only been a day and a night since they last saw each other, but Xiao Duye looked as if his Yang qi had been sucked dry by a female ghost. His face was pale, and his eyes were sunken. His face was haggard.

Su Xiaoxiao exclaimed, “Your Highness Liang, did you encounter a ghost?”

Xiao Duye glared at Su Xiaoxiao. He was wrapped in thick leather and was almost unable to speak.

That d.a.m.n brat actually abandoned him with Jing Yi in the middle of the night and left first. It was cold and freezing. He fell and was stunned. He could only find a cave to settle down first.

But what good place could a cave be? It was damp and cold. It was not enough to light a fire. The cold wind wrapped in ice poured in.

If not for his luck, he would have frozen to death inside!

Soon, he saw Wei Ting beside Su Xiaoxiao and frowned. “Why are you here?”

Wei Ting was not afraid of him and said calmly, “No comment.”

Xiao Duye said coldly, “You left the capital without permission. Aren’t you afraid that I’ll go back and raise a complaint about you!”

Wei Ting said fearlessly, “Your Highness, just go and partic.i.p.ate and see if His

Majesty will punish me.”

Xiao Duye was stunned. “Did Father ask you to come?”

Wei Ting did not say yes or no.

No matter how stupid Xiao Duye was, he understood that Wei Ting had come to the border on orders and was acting secretly like him. He could not help but be curious. What mission did his father arrange for Wei Ting? It couldn’t be that he was also here to look for medicine.

No, it didn’t look like it.

Medicine?

Xiao Duye thought that he had been frozen silly and had almost forgotten about serious matters. He looked at Su Xiaoxiao solemnly. “Where’s the medicine? Did you pick it?”

“I picked it. Here.”

Su Xiaoxiao took out a piece of hemp from Wei Ting’s bag and threw it to him.

Xiao Duye’s expression changed and he hurriedly caught it. “Be careful not to break it!”

This stalk of hemp was ordinary. She had prepared it in the pharmacy in advance and only placed it in Wei Ting’s bag this morning.

Xiao Duye frowned. “Why do I feel that this Snow Domain Hemp is nothing special?”

Xiao Duye did not know anything about medicine. He would not recognize the real McCoy even if she gave it to him. He simply felt that this hemp looked very ordinary.

“You didn’t pick the wrong one, did you?”

He asked Su Xiaoxiao suspiciously.

Su Xiaoxiao said, “Your Highness, don’t suspect me. If you don’t trust me, bring another physician to Heavenly Mountain another day.”

Xiao Duye thought of his experience of almost dying on Heavenly Mountain and expressed that he did not want to come a second time in his life.

Forget it. She was also Zhuge Qing’s doctor. She would not fool Zhuge Qing with a fake Snow Domain Hemp.

Su Xiaoxiao didn’t know about fooling Zhuge Qing. She was simply worried about handing the real Snow Domain Hemp to him.

It was time to return to Broken North Pa.s.s. They had secretly come over, so they naturally had to return secretly.

Xiao Duye disagreed. He said to Su Xiaoxiao, “Don’t you have the token Helian Ye gave you? Can’t you walk through the checkpoint openly? Previously, you were in a hurry to find the hetb. Now that you have the herb, it’s much safer to walk the main road?”

Su Xiaoxiao smiled faintly. “If Wei Ting’s ident.i.ty is exposed and the mission given to him by His Majesty is affected, can Prince Liang bear the responsibility?”

Xiao Duye fell silent.

The group spent a day walking out of Heavrnly Mountain. In the middle of the night, they arrived at the military camp of Northern Yan.

Wei Ting looked at the number of patrolling soldiers in the camp that was clearly doubled and said in a low voice, “Why is the security so tight? Were you exposed when you came over?” Su Xiaoxiao said, “It wasn’t me.” Jing Yi said, “It wasn’t me either.”

Xiao Duye was speechless.

It wasn’t him, okay? It was his guard.

Wei Ting and Jing Yi took the lead and Fu Su followed.

The group avoided the patrolling soldiers, went around the sleeping tents, and carefully walked towards the iron net in front.

Halfway through, Wei Ting suddenly stopped.

Xiao Duye almost b.u.mped into his back. He gritted his teeth and wanted to scold him, but he was worried that he would be exposed.

There was no lamp in the tent. If not for Wei Ting’s good hearing, he would not have noticed the commotion inside.

“Is the Great General really here? Is the news reliable?”

“It’s a letter from the Great General. He has already arrived in Wu Town and plans to rest there for three days.”

“What happened after that? Do you have any instructions, General?”

“Not for the time being. You and I will wait for news of the Great General. In addition, the military camp has to be strengthened. Don’t let any mistakes from the night before appear again. You know that the Great General is strict.”

“I understand.”

After that, the two of them exchanged a few pleasantries. One of them left the tent and the other rested.

Everyone held their breaths until the other party was far away before leaving quietly.

An hour later, they returned to Broken North Pa.s.s. The two carriages stopped on the official road and were watched by Xiao Duye’s attendant and coachman.

Xiao Duye got into the carriage without a word and got someone to set up a stove to warm himself.

Su Xiaoxiao and the others also got into Jing Yi’s carriage.

Fu Su stood guard outside.

“Where’s Wu Town?” Su Xiaoxiao asked.

Wei Ting said, “About a hundred miles northeast. We can reach it in a day if I ride fast and change horses diligently.”

After a pause, he said, “It’s good that he’s at the border. It saves me the trouble of going to the capital to look for him.”

Jing Yi was also in the carriage. Wei Ting did not deliberately hide his mission in front of him.

Su Xiaoxiao thought for a moment. “Then I’ll wait for you to complete your mission and return to the capital together.”

Wei Ting looked at her deeply with an expression that said, “As expected, you can’t bear to part with me and want to stick to me every day.”

He sighed. “If you insist.”

Wait, why was she the one who insisted?

If they went back together, wouldn’t a carriage save them a sum of money?

Did he know how to live?

“There’s no time to lose. I’ll go to Wu Town now. In addition, I’ll leave Fu Su with you.”

As Wei Ting spoke, he picked up the cloak on the bench and put it on her. His well-defined fingers tied the ribbon for her bit by bit. “I’ll try to come back early.”

JingYi wanted to say, “Hurry up and leave!” “Bring Fu Su along,” Su Xiaoxiao said. “Helian Ye isn’t so easy to kill.”

Wei Ting smiled. “Are you worried about me?”

JingYi asked, “Who asked you to be lousy?”

Wei Ting was speechless.

Wei Ting still left Fu Su behind. The reason was that if he could not kill Helian Ye now, Fu Su would be tempting fate had he gone. If he could kill him, Fu Su would not need to follow.

Fu Su said to Su Xiaoxiao, “Actually, Young Master is worried about you.”

Wei Ting silently thought about increasing his salary next month.

Wei Ting set off overnight and infiltrated Northern Yan.

Su Xiaoxiao and the others went to a nearby courier station.

The conditions at the border were difficult. There were no so-called upper rooms at the courier station. They were all ordinary houses.

Xiao Duye could not help but feel disdainful again, but because he was too tired, he quickly fell asleep.

“Aren’t you asleep?”

Jing Yi knocked on Su Xiaoxiao’s door.

“I’m not asleep. Come in,” Su Xiaoxiao said.

Jing Yi carried a bowl of ginger soup in. “I asked the chef at the courier station to make it. Have some ginger soup to warm your body.” “Thank you.” Su Xiaoxiao took the ginger soup.

Jing Yi sat down opposite her. ‘What are you thinking about?”

Su Xiaoxiao said seriously, “Helian Ye secretly came to Wu Town. From the conversation of the two Northern Yan people, it’s very likely that he will come to the border.”

Jing Yi asked, “Are you worried that there will be a war?”

Su Xiaoxiao nodded. “You’ve seen it along the way. The people at the border are miserable, and the streets are filled with beggars and refugees. The soldiers are probably not having a good time either. If we really fight, I’m afraid they’ll go hungry.”

JingYi paused and asked, “Didn’t the old Duke and Su MO send a batch of rations to the capital?”

Su Xiaoxiao shook her head. “That’s far from enough. Besides, the rations are just a cover. It’s mainly to transport weapons.”

This was considered a secret, but there was nothing she could not say to Jing Yi. Even Wei Ting trusted him as he fought with him.

Jing Yi looked at her. “You’ve already thought of a countermeasure, right?”

Su Xiaoxiao narrowed her eyes and said, “I don’t Imow if I’ll be in time.

Tomorrow morning, follow me to the surrounding cities to buy rations..”
