The ex-husband doted on his concubine and killed his wife!The princess turned around and remarried t

Mrs. Cao was shocked and thought her husband was injured.

She ran over in a panic, looked at her husband up and down, and when she saw nothing was wrong, she breathed a sigh of relief and asked, "What's the matter, husband? Why do you look so ugly?"

Cao Jian walked to the table and kicked the flower table angrily, "My men suffered heavy losses!"

Mrs. Cao was shocked, "How could it be possible? Didn't Zhiyuan and the others estimate how many people General Liu has last night? Could it be that our people's defense was lax and General Liu was caught off guard?"

Cao Jian shook his head and said helplessly: "I underestimated General Liu..."

How could he become the regent's right-hand man, how could he be an ordinary person, and how could he really show his strength in front of others.

Although General Liu can no longer mobilize the regent's local power because of the regent's letter, he has more people under his control than he imagined!
The number of General Liu's men who came to the inn to assassinate him tonight was ten times more than he expected!

In order to deal with this group of people, the Cao family lost [-]% of their cronies, a total of several hundred people!They are all elite!
Of course, General Liu didn't get any favors either.

His manpower loss exceeded [-]%!

Mrs. Cao froze on the spot, no one expected that things would develop like this!

Mrs. Cao smiled bitterly, "This time our Cao family must get the trade route between the northern border and Beidi, otherwise the gain will really outweigh the loss!"

At this time, Mrs. Cao's close confidant, the nun, came to report, "Madam, the person brought by General Liu is angry in the yard again and wants something. This..."

Mrs. Cao sneered. Originally, she could still be out of sight and out of mind, but now that General Liu had severely damaged their Cao family, she suddenly lost any patience with Gu Yufei and was filled with hatred.

"She's just a plaything. Do you really think she's on the stage? If she wants to cause trouble, kick her out of the house and let her make enough trouble outside the house!"

"Yes, ma'am."

Grandma left in a hurry.

After what happened, the Cao family no longer wanted to have New Year's Eve dinner. Even though today was New Year's Eve, the Cao family was even quieter than usual.

Gu Yufei couldn't believe that she was kicked out of the Cao family like this!

She was accompanied by several of the guards General Liu had left at Cao's house.

I was kicked out of the Cao Mansion on such a cold winter night. It was still New Year's Eve and I couldn't even find an open restaurant or inn.

Everyone stared at Gu Yufei angrily and complaining. If it hadn't been for Miss Gu's decision, and if it hadn't been for the Cao family to give them some good things on New Year's Eve, they would have been kicked out of the Cao family at this time without even a place to stay. !

Although the Cao family did not treat them favorably, at least they had a warm house to live in and three rich meals a day. Now it was better, they could only stand in the empty street and drink the northwest wind!
Gu Yufei saw that these people had unkind eyes, so she steeled herself and stared back, "What are you looking at! You two go to the inn, you two go to the general, and the rest of you go get some warm clothes for me!"

Although everyone didn't approve of Gu Yufei, they could only do what they did at this time.

As a result, on New Year's Eve, Gu Yufei froze outside for half the night before being picked up by General Liu.

When she arrived at General Liu's side, she was so cold that she could barely breathe.

In fact, those who were with Gu Yufei had already found General Liu, but out of revenge, Gu Yufei didn't come to find her until midnight.

After both sides suffered losses, General Liu would no longer trust Cao Jian at all, let alone live in the Cao family again.

Half an hour after Qin Shuhuang returned to the Cao family, he received news of the battle between the Cao family and General Liu.

When they learned the true number of General Liu's troops, even Liu Renren and Xie Xuanye, who had already expected it, couldn't help but be surprised.

General Liu's people were several times more than they thought.

If they participated in the war today, they would probably lose at least a general bodyguard!
Fortunately, Cao Jian severely wounded these people.General Liu originally thought Cao Jian was a loser, but now he may have directly concluded that Cao Jian betrayed the regent.

The result of this party's "fishing" was even better than they expected!
With the loss of General Liu's manpower, they will not have "venomous snakes" watching them all the time in Beidi, and the business negotiations with Beidi will go more smoothly.

Gu Hongchao, who had been robbed of supplies by Qin Shuhuang, and several others survived on the corpses of three dogs for more than ten days.

As soon as the snow stopped, they set off.

They had no horses now and were afraid of colliding with Qin Shuhuang's convoy, so they took another route.

After going through a lot of hardships, a few people arrived near Xiagong City.

Gu Hongchao, who was originally handsome, tall and straight, was already covered in mess and looked almost like a beggar.

Fortunately, he still had the banknote on him.

I exchanged my banknotes for money in the county towns around Xiagong City, found an inn, washed up and had a full meal, and the group of people looked decent.

Batu wiped the mutton soup on his beard and asked, "When will Mr. Gu enter Xiagong City?"

Gu Hongchao touched his frostbitten hands and said coldly: "We have no goods, so we won't go to Xiagong City."

Moreover, Qin Shuhuang must be in Xia Gong City at this time, and there is also the Xu family in Xia Gong City. If he goes to Xia Gong City and is caught by Qin Shuhuang, he may never have the chance to complete the task assigned to him by King Ping!

Batu said "Huh?" "Where is the young master going?"

"Beidi Royal City."

Batu was originally from Beidi, and when he heard what Gu Hongchao said, he immediately became happy.

"Young Master Gu has good eyesight. This place is very close to Beidi King City. I know it very well. There are many good goods that Young Master Gu needs. I will definitely introduce the cheapest and best quality goods to Young Master Gu. When the time comes, we can sell them to Dawu. Young Master Gu can Make a lot of money!"

Batu and his men always thought that Gu Hongchao was really a businessman from Dawu.

In order to gain the upper hand, Gu Hongchao did not dare to delay this time.

Before spending the New Year in the county town, he bought the basic things and took Chang Sui, Batu and others to Beidi.

Batu was eager to return home. He was from near Beidi Royal City and had relatives at home. He had not returned home for many years. He wanted to see how his relatives were doing.

The closer he got to Beidi King City, the faster Batu was on his way.

But he forgot that Gu Hongchao was from Dawu Capital City and was not used to the cold in Beidi. Beidi City was even colder than Xiagong City. After traveling day and night, Gu Hongchao's body soon became unable to bear the illness.

When there was still more than half a day's journey from Beidi King City, Gu Hongchao had a high fever, his cheeks were burning red, and he was shaky on his horse.

Chang Sui glanced at the sleepy eldest young master worriedly, frowned and said to Batu: "Our young master can't hold on any longer, otherwise we can find a place to rest for the night and then rush to the royal city tomorrow."

Batu wanted to go home impatiently. How could he want to go home? He said: "There is only half a day's journey. Renren will be there. There is a doctor in the royal city. When the time comes, let the doctor treat Mr. Gu. Just take two doses of medicine and he will be fine." Camping near here, Mr. Gu has three advantages and two disadvantages, and even the doctor can't find it!"

What Batu said makes sense.

So Gu Hongchao could only endure it.

In his daze, he couldn't help but wonder, if he were by Qin Shuhuang's side, would Qin Shuhuang treat him?

Suddenly, smoke and dust rose not far away, and a group of powerful men and horses ran towards their direction... (End of Chapter)
