Chapter 134 Crayfish
Soon, Lin Wuhui selected thirty secret guards.
He took a few of Gu Feiyun's reliable subordinates with him and sneaked into Wuling Port after disguising himself.
When Gu Feiyun saw Lin Wuhui's disguise, he was shocked and surprised.
If she remembered correctly, Lin Wuhui seemed to be the younger brother of the Queen of Daxia?
Are the nobles of Daxia so knowledgeable?
Even able to disguise yourself?
What shocked Gu Feiyun was not only Lin Wuhui's disguise, but also the supplies that were transported from Zhouling Pass to Qiankun Port a few days later.
The people of Daxia had just recaptured Qiankun Port and were actually beginning to plan and build the city wall.
They also conscripted people from the port to do corvée labor, providing them with two meals a day and wages.
This move brought a rare smile to the faces of the people who had been worried for so long.
Not only that, she took the time to see the two meals that Daxia prepared for the people doing corvée labor, and each meal had a meat dish.
Meat. The people of Qiankun Port would probably only be willing to eat some meat during the New Year holidays throughout the year.
Moreover, during this period, the Chu government increased taxes, and only a small number of people could afford two meals a day.
For most people, it is difficult to have a full meal a day.
After a few days of testing, the people found that the Xia people were fair and clear about rewards and punishments, and would not beat them for no reason.
Even if someone made a mistake or was lazy, they would only be persuaded to leave and would not be whipped like in the past when they were doing corvee labor.
So, they naturally work hard.
The people felt that there was hope for the future and they wished they could go to work every day to earn more money and were unwilling to stop for a moment.
But the Xia people did not allow this, and the time for performing corvée labor was fixed.
Moreover, there is one day off every ten days, which makes many people happy but confused.
Gu Feiyun had mixed feelings, but his sense of belonging to Daxia grew stronger day by day.
A few days later, Gu Feiyun took the initiative to lead people to sneak into Zhaocheng.
Ma Dequan, who came to Qiankun Port to deliver materials for the construction of the city wall, gathered all the generals together to discuss the matter.
He looked at Gu Feiyun, "General Gu still needs to rest well from his injuries, why are you in such a hurry?"
"That's right," Chu Qiyun also looked distressed, "You can consider Zhaocheng affairs after your injuries are completely healed."
Two blushes immediately appeared on Gu Feiyun's round face.
Qian Qian tilted his head to look at Chu Qiyun, then at Gu Feiyun, and said to himself, "The more I look at these two, the more they look like a perfect match."
She was sincere. Ever since Gu Feiyun regained her female body, the rough look on her face became less and less.
In fact, if you look closely, she has a very cute appearance.
Round face, round eyes and chubby lips.
Although she had a pair of sharp eyebrows, the female soldiers who served her in the past few days helped her to trim them a little, and she looked much softer.
Qian Qian thought she was whispering, but unexpectedly the tent was so quiet that her whispering became very clear.
Gu Feiyun's face turned even redder, and Chu Qiyun's cheeks also felt a little hot.
Ma Dequan glanced at the two of them, and when he thought of Green Screen, who had worked like a slave on Xiangrui Island, he felt very unhappy.
"Ahem, General Gu, tell me why you want to sneak into Zhaocheng at this time?"
Gu Feiyun straightened his expression and said seriously, "I am quite familiar with Zhaocheng. The control of the city gates there is lax. It is easy to enter the city as long as you have silver."
"And I know that there is a dark forest at the border of Zhaocheng and Daxia. The locals call that dark forest the Forest of Death. No one can come out of that dark forest alive."
"The area there is quite large, and is suitable for concealing one's whereabouts. When Zhaocheng is in chaos, I will lead my men to hide in the dark forest and launch a surprise attack on the Zhaocheng defenders."
Ma Dequan and the three brothers of the Chu family stared at the sand table with deep eyes. After a while, Chu Qicai nodded, "This place is indeed suitable for secret military training."
"But, didn't sister-in-law just say that there is no way out from here?"
Sister-in-law?
Gu Feiyun didn't hear anything else Chu Qicai said, but heard the word "sister-in-law" and rolled his eyes at Chu Qicai, "What nonsense are you talking about?"
Chu Qicai...
I was confused. What did I say?
Looking at his younger brother, Chu Qifu laughed heartlessly and got a slap in the face from his second brother.
Everyone laughed for a while, and Gu Feiyun continued, "I have a soldier under my command who has walked out of the dark forest before. I will let him act as a guide this time."
She considered it for a while and said, "If Her Royal Highness the Princess doesn't mind, I would like to take Erdan with me." She felt a little embarrassed that such a majestic and good-looking snow wolf was called Erdan.
"Erdan, let's go together."
"Animals have more acute five senses. I think with Erdan here with us, we won't be trapped in the dark forest."
Qian Qian nodded, "Then I'll go with you."
Without waiting for Ma Dequan and the others to object, she asked again, "Erdan is such a big target, can he sneak into Zhaocheng?"
"We will pretend to be a caravan, hide Erdan in the cargo, and head directly to the Dark Forest after entering Zhaocheng."
Qian Qian nodded, and Ma Dequan immediately spoke, "Princess, the situation in Zhaocheng is unclear, and you are still young, so don't put yourself in danger."
"But," Qian Qian scratched his head, "Er Dan won't listen to anyone else's orders, he only listens to me."
This is actually impossible to refute.
Finally, everyone decided that Gu Feiyun and Chu Qiyun should pretend to be a couple and sneak into Zhaocheng with the princess, their daughter.
In the evening, Qian Qian was writing a secret letter to her father, the emperor and her mother, hoping that they would designate Qiankun, Wuling and Zhaocheng as her fiefdom.
She tried her best to express herself sincerely and thought it over several times before allowing the secret guard to send the secret letter.
As soon as the secret guard left, she heard rustling sounds outside the tent, and almost instinctively, [Tongzi.]
As soon as the thought came to my mind, I remembered that Tongzi was hiding.
After a pause, she opened the tent and saw Li Huan holding a large tray...
"Princess, you scared me. Fortunately, I have a steady hand."
Before Qianqian could say anything, he smelled a very tempting aroma.
"What delicious food have you made?"
Li Huan came to Qiankun Port with Ma Dequan, and he found a lot of seafood on the coast of Qiankun Port.
Placing the tray on the table, he lifted the lid.
A domineering fragrance rushed straight to Qian Qian's head, and she opened her eyes wide, "This, is this a crayfish?"
Li Huan nodded proudly. He had only known about this ingredient when he heard the princess's voice a long time ago.
When he heard her discussing this with Tongzi, he was extremely envious.
This time we went to Xiangrui Island, Gaodi Island and Lang Island, but we didn't find it. We also didn't find it at Zhouling Pass.
But I didn't expect to find this kind of strange insect in Qiankun Port, and I dealt with it according to the method suggested by the princess.
It was indeed a unique experience. Qianqian had no time to talk and just washed his hands and started peeling shrimps.
[Oh my god, oh my god, it's been a long time since I last had crayfish. It tastes delicious, but it's a pity that there is no chili at this time. ]
[But this one is also delicious, the aroma is a little different, but it is also super delicious. 】
This time, the princess's thoughts were not echoed by Tongzi, and Li Huan was not used to it.
He washed his hands leisurely and then enjoyed the meal with the princess.
The two of them quickly finished two large plates of crayfish. Qianqian was still not satisfied. She touched her stomach and said, "Huanhuan, I want to eat more tomorrow."
Li Huan smiled and said, "Sure, Princess, if you still want to eat, can you take me with you to Zhaocheng?"
