Wei and Jin cooks

Chapter 438 Sneaking in quietly

Nanyang Kingdom is located in Luyang, not far from Xi'e County, but not close either.

Zhao Hanzhang marched quickly with a hundred soldiers and arrived outside the city gate after noon the next day.

They reined in the horse on a hillside. Zhao Hanzhang's head and face were covered, only a pair of eyes were exposed. There was nothing they could do, it was too cold!

They looked down at the city gate not far away. Qiu Wu and the scouts trotted up and said: "Girl, we have checked. The inspection of not carrying goods in and out of the city gate is not strict, but with so many of us entering, it will definitely attract attention." ."

Zhao Hanzhang lowered his eyes and thought for a while before saying: "Leave three of the cavalry outside, and the rest will break into pieces and enter the city separately. Qiu Wu, you choose fifty cavalry to follow me into the city."

"yes."

Zhao Hanzhang took off his helmet, and the group changed out of their armor in the forest. Tinghe unpacked the baggage he had brought with him. After worrying for a while, he finally took out a shawl and used it as a large face towel to wrap around Zhao Hanzhang.

After a while, only two eyes of Zhao Hanzhang were exposed again, but they were different from the sassy ones just now. Now she was pretty and lively, and she looked like a girl from a wealthy family.

Tinghe thought for a while, untied half of her hair and let it down, "Girl, that's it."

Zhao Hanzhang nodded and flew onto his horse. Qiu Wu also ordered his men. Everyone put away their armor, got on their horses in cloth clothes, and solemnly followed Zhao Hanzhang down the hillside.

The remaining people waited for Zhao Hanzhang and others to go far before they started to disperse in groups. They had to find their own way to enter the city.

In troubled times, the masters of wealthy families would bring guards with them when traveling, but not many could take fifty riders with them at one go. In Yuzhou, you could count them on the palm of your hand.

So when he saw a pair of girls leading fifty people on horseback from a distance, the guard guarding the gate subconsciously tensed his back.

When they got closer, they saw the leader, a wealthy girl, covering her face with a scarf, her eyes cold and cold. Although she was pretty, no one dared to look at her more. She would look away at the first glance. However, the girl behind her, who looked like a servant at first sight, was very aggressive. , seeing them looking at them, he glared back fiercely and shouted: "What are you looking at? Why don't you get out of the way? If you freeze my girl, I'll take it from you."

The soldiers guarding the gate immediately lowered their heads, but still stood in front of them loyally. They glanced at the guards behind them and saw that each of them was carrying a weapon and the horses under them were well-trained and fat. Be more cautious, "Who are you, where are you from, and what are you doing in Luyang?"

He added, "This is an inquiry according to regulations."

Qiu Wu lightly kicked the horse, took two steps forward, raised his chin slightly and said arrogantly: "We are the Zhao family of Xiping, and we are going to Xiangyang via Nanyang Kingdom. This is the girl of our fifth room, why don't you let her go quickly?"

How would an ordinary soldier know which girl was in Zhao's fifth room?

But now in Yuzhou, the Xiping Zhao family is indeed the most prosperous family. No, it was very powerful before, but now everyone dares not to provoke it.

The soldier didn't hesitate and got out of the way.

Zhao Hanzhang kicked his horse and left.

The soldiers watched them enter the city and waited until they were gone before saying, "Go and tell the captain that a noble daughter from the Zhao family in Xiping has arrived."

The captain was hiding in the tower to keep warm. Hearing this, he sat upright and asked, "Which noble lady? What are you doing here? Where have you been now?"

"It's said that the girl from the fifth room is going to Xiangyang and passed by our country of Nanyang. She should be going to the inn now, right?"

Upon hearing this, the captain leaned back and waved his hand nonchalantly: "It turns out we were just passing by, so what's the big deal?"

He hummed and said: "There are so many people in the Zhao family, do I have to care about everyone who passes by? From now on, as long as it is not for business, there is no need to come to report."

The soldier responded and withdrew.

Zhao Hanzhang and the others did not stay in an inn, but found an empty house and entered it. It was covered with cobwebs and no one had lived in it for a long time.

Zhao Hanzhang opened a door casually, waved away the dust, found a place to sit down, and said, "Ask the scouts to bring everyone here."

Qiu Wu agreed and arranged it.

Tinghe brought a water bag and dry food. She felt distressed when she saw Zhao Hanzhang eating hard steamed buns with cold water. She glanced outside and said, "Girl, let me go buy some things."

Zhao Hanzhang shook his head, "It's better to keep a low profile at this time. Stay here and don't go out."

Tinghe can only accept it.

When the sky was getting dark, the scattered scouts finally brought everyone back, and a hundred people reunited in the empty house. At the same time, some scouts found out about Pei He's house.

Zhao Hanzhang squatted on the ground and watched for a while, then tapped his stick on one side and said: "Go in from here, the closest to his study."

"Will he be in the study at this time?"

"Calculate the time, the news of our entry into Xi'e County should have reached him, and he will definitely have to deal with things in the study." Zhao Hanzhang said: "Let's eat, we will leave as soon as it gets dark."

The weather was too cold, and it snowed heavily the day before yesterday, so everyone was even less willing to go out.

So as soon as night fell, the entire county governor's mansion became quiet. Except for a few servants, only the patrolling guards were walking around.

But the guards didn't want to stay outside for too long. They just walked by in a hurry and then hid back in the house.

Especially now that it's just dark, they feel that they don't have the courage of thieves to come to the Sheriff's Mansion.

So as soon as they passed by, they immediately hid in the house and closed the doors and windows tightly.

When Zhao Hanzhang and the others climbed over the wall easily, they heard an argument going on inside, "Open the window a little, there's charcoal burning in the room."

"Then sit down by the window..."

"Beautiful, hurry up and open the door. I was the one sitting under the window last night..."

Zhao Hanzhang tapped his toes, quickly walked around the room, and reached the corridor in one leap.

The view here is wide and it is very quiet. You can tell that no one is there.

Zhao Hanzhang didn't panic anymore, straightened his sleeves, and wandered to the study as if he were strolling in his own courtyard.

Qiu Wu and three personal guards followed behind. Seeing Zhao Hanzhang Shi Shiran walking calmly, cold sweat broke out on his forehead.

By the way, how did she know that the study room had to turn left? By the way, what is the name of the place shown on the map, and where is the study?

Before he could figure it out, Zhao Hanzhang had already gently pushed open a window and turned in with a push of his hand.

Qiu Wu:......

He glared and quickly followed.

Zhao Hanzhang landed gently. She lowered her head and glanced at the place where her feet landed. It was a wooden couch by the window.

Her shoes were worn while riding horses, walking on snow, mud, and climbing over walls and tiles. It could be said that they were as dirty as they wanted.

She apologized in her heart and stepped on the ground.

This should be an inner room for people to rest. Apart from this large wooden couch, there are only water basins, cloths, towels and other items on a shelf not far away. Lying in front of the wooden couch are two huge wooden couches connected together. screen.

At this time, human figures were reflected on the screen. It seemed that one person was sitting and two people were standing.
