Chapter 183 Flying into the sky
Chapter 183 Flying into the sky
Liang Youyu walked out of the tent and wiped the sweat from his forehead with lingering fear.
Why is the general so angry today?
We still need to check the account book. According to the account book, didn’t he already take the bulk of the money?
Could it be that the little tricks I did secretly were discovered by the general?
"Lord Liang, let's go?" Sun Xiaoqi next to him looked at him with a smile.
Liang Youyu became even more frightened.
After walking a little further, Liang Youyu took out a banknote from his sleeve, looked around to see if there was anyone around, stuffed it into Sun Xiaoqi's hand, and asked flatteringly:
"Guard Sun, did I do something wrong to make the general angry? Please give me some advice. I will be grateful.
Sun Xiaoqi took a look at the nearby campfire. Wow, he didn't expect Liang Youyu to be so generous.
This shows how much money he, as the quartermaster, makes.
Sun Xiaoqi took the banknote into his arms and said in a profound tone:
"Sir Liang, our general's eyes are not open to any grain of sand. If anyone dares to embezzle money behind his back, what do you think he will do?"
After saying this, he looked at Liang Youyu meaningfully.
Liang Youyu was shocked. It was indeed the case!
He knew An Mengde's methods. Those who disobeyed would be beaten with hundreds of military sticks at any time. With his small physique, he would definitely die.
He followed Sun Xiaoqi nervously to get the account book, then returned to his own tent and brought out a box.
As soon as he returned to An Mengde's tent, Liang Youyu fell to his knees.
"General, I have brought the account book, as well as these banknotes. These are what I have prepared to give to you as a gift in the past few days. Please accept them."
This was almost all the money he had secretly embezzled behind An Mengde's back.
Although my heart was bleeding, I had no choice but to hand it over in order to save my life.
Li Tieniu opened the box and asked:
"How many are here?"
Liang Youyu answered cautiously: "Twenty thousand taels."
Li Tieniu looked at the stack of banknotes in front of him and sneered:
"Liang Youyu, you are so brave!"
Liang Youyu kowtowed like crazy and begged for mercy in a crying voice:
"General, please spare my life. I will never do it again. Please show some mercy."
Li Tieniu said with a sullen face:
"Alright, I'll let you off this time! I'll give you a chance to make amends. This money will be used as military pay. You can use it to buy meat and vegetables. If I hear that a soldier is hungry again, watch out for your head!"
Liang Youyu said hurriedly:
"Yes, General, one month later——"
The silver bills and the grain in the granary together were only enough to feed the entire army for one month.
Li Tieniu interrupted him and said:
"Let's make sure everyone is well fed first. I will take care of what happens in a month! Go and do it!"
Liang Youyu didn't dare to ask any more questions and hurriedly left the tent.
After Liang Youyu left, Li Tieniu proudly said to his three special forces soldiers:
"How is it? Do I, Tie Niu, look like a great general?"
The three of them immediately gave a thumbs up:
"so similar!"
I really didn't expect that Li Tieniu, who usually looks like a simpleton, has a different aura after receiving guidance from the national teacher, and he is becoming more and more like a general.
The four of them couldn't understand the account books, so they put them away and waited to hand them over to the imperial teacher someday.
At this moment, Gu Xi and Chu Zhao had already traveled four or five thousand miles and flew back to Minzhou.
She first settled Zhou Qing's family in the house that Liu Erdan had just bought today.
Then he took out a bottle of refreshing medicine and shook it under Zhou Qing's nose, and Zhou Qing woke up.
He looked at the unfamiliar environment around him with a dazed look in his eyes. He slept very deeply.
"National Master? Why is it you? Aren't you distributing grain seeds in the south?"
Zhou Qing looked at Gu Xi, who had disguised himself as Qi Dasheng, then looked at Chu Zhao beside him and asked in surprise.
Gu Xi said, "Yes, it's me. Lord Zhou, your family will settle down here from now on. Don't worry, even if the court is tracking down the fugitive, it is impossible to chase him so far."
Zhou Qing looked at the sky outside. It was already completely dark. He frowned and said:
"What is this place? I have only slept for a few hours, how far can I walk? Oh, where is Gu girl?"
Gu Xi lied without blushing or beating his heart:
"This is Minzhou. The eldest daughter of the Gu family has passed away. These are the boxes of Moutai liquor she left behind. At your age, you should drink it slowly."
What? Minzhou!
Zhou Qing was so surprised that he didn't even care about the Moutai.
"Is the Imperial Master joking? Minzhou is more than 2,000 miles away from the capital."
He just took a nap, not flew.
Well, yes, he just flew into the sky.
Chu Zhao also said: "Old man, that's right, you are in Minzhou now. If you don't believe it, wait until tomorrow morning, and you will know if it is Minzhou when you go out."
"And these silver coins and food and clothing expenses were also left by Miss Gu. She said it was to repay your kindness in helping the Gu family. You can just stay here with peace of mind."
Zhou Qing followed Chu Zhao's gaze and saw a large box of silver coins and a large pile of rice, flour, grain and cloth.
"How can an old man accept this? Madam brought silver, you can take these."
Chu Zhao said:
"That won't do. This is what Miss Gu left behind. She's doing business everywhere, and we can't find her. You can keep it for yourself. The last thing she lacks is money."
Gu Xi took out some medicine for external injuries and said:
"Master Zhou, this medicine from our master is very effective. You only have some external injuries on your body. They will heal after a few days of application."
After saying that, she sprinkled some of the bottle of stimulant in the air. Seeing that Madam Zhou and the servants were about to wake up, she said:
"Farewell!"
Then he and Chu Zhao used their Qinggong skills to leave the courtyard directly.
This courtyard was bought in a remote town, and it was impossible for people from the court to find it.
After leaving the yard, Gu Xi took out the motorcycle, Chu Zhao got on it, and took Gu Xi on a quick ride, heading straight for the capital of Minzhou.
They had to stay in the city, waiting for the imperial edict to be issued by the court to suppress the Japanese invaders.
Wu Dajiang, who was in the capital of Minzhou, slept for a whole day before he finally recovered a little, but he was still woken up by hunger.
He was wolfing down the food on the table when he saw the imperial teacher and the major general coming back.
He asked in surprise:
"Grandmaster, Major General, didn't you go to the capital to rescue Lord Zhou?"
Chu Zhao nodded, "Yes, the person has been rescued and resettled."
"What?" Wu Dajiang's eyes widened. "It's only been six or seven hours, right?"
Chu Zhao looked at him with disdain, "What's the big deal? I can't really lie to you."
Then he said proudly:
"This young general has a flying magic weapon that can fly to the capital in just over half an hour. It took six or seven hours because we went to the north and captured An Mengde."
