Daughter Raiders

Chapter 196
Mu Huan stepped out of the barracks where he stayed last night, opened his pocket watch, and saw that there was still an hour before lunch, so he called the team of personal soldiers he brought over to lead the horses, and was about to set off for Liaodong; in the distance, he saw a The little soldier came running like flying, and when he got up to him, he stood up with one hand and said, "My lord, General Wei has a request."

Although Mu Huan has joined the army, he has no military rank. He just leads a 40-member cavalry guard with his father. In addition to protecting his father, he spends more time sending letters; After all, after his father became a nobleman, his grandfather invited him to be his son, and some people called him his son directly, and he was used to it.

But now after hearing this little soldier's report, his expression immediately turned serious.

Uncle Wei handed over the reply letter to him last night, why, now there is another emergency?Or if he knew he was going back to Liaodong, he sent someone to invite him instead of waiting for him to say goodbye?
Thinking of this, he hurriedly waved to the soldiers leading the horses, and followed the soldiers to the camp of the guard general Wei Zhenhai. After entering the tent, he saw two men sitting under Wei Zhenhai's hands. Dressed as a soldier, but he is dressed like a soldier, and he looks familiar.

This, this is the general of the Miao family who escorted Tao Ran out of the customs all the way!Did something happen to Suizhong City?
Mu Huan's complexion became more serious, but he was not in a hurry. He went up to see Wei Zhenhai, the guard of the Shanhai Pass, and greeted the two men with fists together. Although the two men had been in the army for more than ten years, they were now only holding the title of a hundred households. , This is what the old Qi Guogong sought for them before he disarmed and returned to the field. Seeing that Mu Huan treated people so respectfully, he quickly stood up and returned the gift.

After several people were seated again, Wei Zhenhai did not hesitate, and explained the two people's intentions in a deep voice: "...It seems that the discussion last night was not thorough enough. After such an incident, it is not only Shanhaiguan who must take strict precautions. , and other cities should be strictly guarded, lest a small group of Khalkhas disguise themselves and sneak into the city to harass the people."

Wei Zhenhai said so, but in fact it has nothing to do with his discussion last night, nor with his scope of authority - he is only the guard of Shanhaiguan, and the defense of other cities is not under his jurisdiction.The reason why he said this was to put forward the proposal in a different way, so as not to be criticized for interfering with the deployment of the general army at will.

Although Mu Huan is still young, he also understands this measure. After accepting Wei Zhenhai's kindness with a smile, he stood up again and bid farewell to Wei Zhenhai, saying that he planned to leave immediately and did not want to delay any longer; Because they wanted to return to Suizhong City immediately, the group didn't even stay for lunch, and Wei Zhenhai didn't try to persuade them to stay, and immediately sent people to send everyone out of the station.

It was not until the group of horses and horses left the Shanhaiguan garrison for six or seven miles that Mu Huan calmed down and slowed down his riding speed, and rode his horses to the side of the two generals of the Miao family: "Dare to ask the two uncles, are the family members of Third Uncle Su still alive?" Ok?"

The two family generals were taken aback for a moment, looked at each other, and then remembered that the eldest son was going to escort the sixth girl of the Su family to the Liaodong Mansion, and the one who was more able to talk told what happened last night in a deep voice. He explained it to Mu Huan in detail: "... Don't worry, Mu Shizi, everything is fine except for the death of a servant girl in the back house."

In fact, in detail, that maid deserves to die, how could she open the door casually when she heard someone knocking on it in the middle of the night?This is not the capital city outside the pass, and Mrs. Su San has lived in Suizhong for almost two years, so don't you know that there is a lot of chaos outside the pass?The general shook his head and sighed secretly.

Although Mu Huan had known for a long time that Tao Ran was unharmed, he breathed a sigh of relief once again—if the dead maid hadn't opened the door and let him in, the thief might have found other rooms. Where...for example, the East Wing where Tao Ran stayed?

But Tao Ran surprised him even more.You must know that his two sisters can also hit eight out of ten shots with a flintlock pistol, but after all, it is only in the martial arts arena. If they really encounter a thief, wouldn't the two sisters tremble with fright?

Tao Ran was able to be so calm, one bullet killed the thief, and even hit him right on the head!She doesn't know how to use a flintlock, so she wants to ask Yu Hong, the head of the Miao family's general, to teach her?Could it be that the danger is imminent and the potential has exploded?

But thinking so, it would be difficult for Mu Huan to believe it.Be it horse-handed kung fu or boxing and foot martial arts, it all depends on long-term familiarity and practice. If you can explode when you encounter danger, who would bother to learn these things!

Mu Huan was puzzled and excited at the same time, his mounts ran faster and faster, and this group of people were all good military horses, even the two generals of the Miao family were no exception. It was two hundred miles away, and at noon, everyone arrived at the city of Suizhong.

The two generals of the Miao family knew that it was not easy for Mu Huan to stay with military affairs, so they wanted to say goodbye to Mu Huan and go their separate ways. Let's go on our way after lunch.

The two families raised doubts in their hearts, and even showed a trace of contempt.This prince is really young and frivolous, he doesn't even care about his official duties, and he still wants to go to Suizhong City for lunch!How dare the young masters of the Miao family do this, it would be light to hit the Duke with dozens of military sticks!

Mu Huan didn't care what the two generals of the Miao family thought, after discussing the arrangements with his own soldiers, he took the lead and rode straight to the gate of the city. He didn't stop when he entered the city, and he arrived in front of the Su family's house in a short while. After that, he took the rein and did not dismount, and the man immediately became stunned.

what happened to him?Even if he was worried about the safety of Third Uncle Su's family, it wouldn't be the case, right?If it is said that he is hungry, he has been in Liaodong for the past two years and he has been rushing for meals. A piece of hard cake and a pot of cold water can still satisfy his hunger, so why does he have to go to the city!

To know the safety of the people in Liaodong and all the cities, it is more than a star and a half more important than the family members of Su Sanshu!It seems that he is still too young. Although he is not convinced by what his father often said, he finally admits that there are times in his bones that he still wants to do whatever he wants... completely ignoring General Ji.

But since he came, he couldn't turn around and leave again.Since Tao Ran can use a flintlock so skillfully, it would be even better if he could also ride a horse. He no longer has to worry that it would be too risky for her to stay in Suizhong to wait for him, and he can take her on the journey together in the afternoon.

Mu Huan made up his mind and got off his horse. At this time, Yu Hong had already returned from the county office. He heard the neighing of the horse outside the door, so he came out to meet him. He was also taken aback when he saw Mu Huan, but he was relieved immediately— ——Although the sixth girl of the Su family is young, she considers things very carefully. Since Mu Shizi got two of his subordinates to report the news, he should come to thank him now.

After a while, Tao Ran who was preparing to have lunch with Mrs. Yu in the back house also received the letter.She raised her head and consulted Yu Shi with her eyes, and saw that her mother nodded to her helplessly, so she slowly swallowed the kang, and slowly gave Yu Shi a gift to leave temporarily, and waited for her to leave the room where the main house was. In the courtyard, the steps under his feet immediately became cheerful, and he almost ran away...
