MTL - Dressed As a Farm Boy, He Cheated on His Way Out of the Desert.-Chapter 1088 The worst happened!

Chapter 1088 The worst happened!

As soon as Mu Jue untied his belt, he immediately jumped off the horse, lay down on the ground, and breathed a sigh of relief.

Ye Shan **** his horse and sat next to him, breathing heavily.

He patted Mu Jue and said with a smile, "Thanks, Guard Mu, it's all thanks to you this time, otherwise I would have been arrested by those people.

　　When the Marquis rescued you, you were still a young man. I didn’t expect that after a few years, you would become so successful!

No wonder the Marquis always says that you are born to march and fight, but it is a pity that this is not your ambition! "Mu Jue crossed his legs, picked up a piece of grass and held it in his mouth. Then he took an oil paper bag from his satchel and stuffed it into Ye Shan's hand.

“Uncle Shan is right, why don’t we boys grow up? You need to rest your belly first. Is this a sesame seed cake brought from home or baked by Aunt Mei?”

Hasama hadn’t seen his wife for several months. Hearing this, he quickly opened the oil paper bag, took a big bite, and then narrowed his eyes happily.

"Boy, don't think that if you bribe me with a sesame seed cake, I won't pursue the case." Ye Shan finished the sesame seed cake in several bites, choked and drank a sip of water to smooth it down, and continued to criticize.

“How many fog **** do you still have, share half with me. Unfortunately, I am still cautious and don’t dare to use one until there is danger. It’s better for you to throw them out one by one.”

Mu Jue was proud that he had his beloved girl to support him privately.

 He spat out the straw stalks and opened the bag. There were a dozen straws left in total.

“This thing is not easy to make in the first place, and the princess doesn’t have much in stock. Most of it was sent to you for the Northern Expedition, and the remaining few were given to me.

"It's just that the princess said that this is a second-generation product with lime powder in it. If the wind direction is not good, it is easy to deceive one's own people, so I did not put any poison powder.

“Be careful when you use it. Lime can easily cause blindness if it gets into your eyes. If it gets contaminated, remember to scrub it with plain oil.”

“I know.” Ye Shan grabbed all the fog **** and stuffed them into his arms without any politeness, and then got down to business.

"The Marquis is about to launch a full-scale attack, planning to drive the barbarians out of the border in half a month and completely regain Jiangbei. However, the imperial court has issued an official document to switch from offense to defense, and the delivery of military supplies is also being delayed.

"The Marquis has decided to abandon the court and fight quickly. In this way, the family will have to find a way to provide military supplies. I wonder how uncle and Mr. Wen have prepared before? Maybe they can help the Marquis now?"

"Of course!" Mu Jue's eyes were so bright that they became clearer in the night.

"My family has been secretly stocking up on military rations, especially after the last time the military rations were destroyed. My uncle and Mr. Wen couldn't come forward, so it was me and my people who secretly transported the grain to Jiangbei and hid it in a valley. Guarded by veterans. Those three hundred veterans were left to me by the Marquis before he went on the expedition. They are very reliable."

Ye Shan was delighted when he heard this and guessed casually, "The valley you are talking about is not the gravel valley that everyone in Broken Gold Beach has longed for, is it? Is it the one where the Guo family's collection of books has been temporarily stored?"

 “Hahaha, you guessed it right, Uncle Shan. That’s where it is!”

Mu Jue jumped up and said, "Let's go, Uncle Shan, let's go back and have a look. Although those people may not be able to leave us any clues, we still have to take a look before we can rest assured. If nothing happens, I I’ll take you to the valley to discuss how to transport the food.”

Ye Shan unscrewed the water bag at his waist, took a few sips of water, and sighed, "That team of people didn't have much murderous intention towards us, otherwise we would have been injured in the rain of arrows just now.

“However, having such an extra force in Jiangbei is always a trouble, so we have to find a way to get rid of them.”

Mu Jue nodded, "After the food is shipped, so as not to delay the major events of the Northern Expedition, I will spend my free time looking for these people. However, it is difficult to deal with these people if I catch them."

“It would be a pity to kill him, but it would be useless if he didn’t kill him. It would be a headache!”

 “Let’s go, the geese haven’t been caught yet, we’ll decide whether to steam or boil them later.”

 Ye Shan untied the horse's reins and climbed onto the horse. Mu Jue then jumped up, and the two of them quietly returned to the place where they had just fought.

Sure enough, not to mention the soldiers and horses whose eyes were damaged by lime, there was no trace of the bodies of the men in black who had been chopped down by Ye Shan earlier.

 Except for the faint smell of blood that was blown away by the night wind, it was as if nothing had happened here...

Mu Jue walked around for a long time, and Ye Shan was not idle either. Finally, the two of them met.

"The men in black who first intercepted and killed me were probably... the people from Xindu. He was determined to drag the Northern Expeditionary Army with them, and wait until the incident in Xindu was over before letting the Northern Expeditionary Army fight with the barbarians. It's a decisive battle." Ye Shan looked unhappy and felt angry, not worth it for his master.

Hunting for a cousin every day, he wished that the whole world would know how difficult it was for him and his master to support each other and survive since childhood.

 As it turns out, at the critical moment, for the sake of his own plan, he didn't just throw his cousin's safety aside.

Perhaps he has other greed, so that the master worked hard for Tianwu for most of his life, and in the end he didn't even get a good settlement...

Mu Jue also sighed, the worst happened.

"These people are indeed from the palace, and their tricks are all commonly used by secret guards. Judging from the marks of horse hooves, their bodies should have been taken away by that team of people. But I don't know what the purpose of that team of people is!"

“That person has been hesitant before and has not made up his mind. The princess can see it most clearly in the palace. She is worried that such a situation will happen, and she will not be able to eat or sleep well.

"Now that man has sent his men to intercept Mr. Hou's contact with his family. I'm afraid he has really made up his mind."

Ye Shan snorted coldly, "When I go back, I must inform the Marquis in detail so that he can make preparations in advance. That man had already decided to be ungrateful, but the Marquis disobeyed the order and decided to fight in advance. I'm afraid that that man would have more excuses to attack me." The Lord is in trouble."

Mu Jue tilted his head and thought about it, then smiled.

“Uncle Shan, you said that the secret guards wanted to cut off the connection between the Northern Expeditionary Army and the family, and that the troops wanted to destroy the army’s supplies.

Since they are all enemies of the Northern Expeditionary Army, should we make arrangements to completely blame those dead guards on that team? "

Ye Shan’s eyes lit up when he heard this, and he asked, “Do you have any idea?”

“Of course, when the secret guards in the palace handle errands, they usually have backup plans. Once the person who handles the errand has been dead for more than four hours, someone will follow up to check.

“There were a lot of people in that team, and the traces left behind are more obvious. Let’s try to find them. It’s best to get two more sets of clothes and horses.

“When the following secret guards arrive here, we will lead them to that group of people with a southwest accent…”

“What a great idea!” Ye Shan couldn’t help but cheer, and slapped Mu Jue hard, “You’re too quick-witted, and if you let them go like this, we can get rid of the Jiangbei team that disrupted the situation without us taking action.”

Mu Jue also smiled, but his eyes were full of coldness.

The team of people in Jiangbei who are disrupting the situation are nothing at all. The hypocrite in Xindu who covets his beloved girl is his ultimate goal.

The man with the southwestern accent was discovered, and it would be strange if the man in the palace did not doubt the prince-in-law he was interested in.

What's more, his consort was so strangely ill before getting married...
