Chapter 266
The weather in early June is already a bit hot. In the morning, if you walk a few steps, you will inevitably see some sweat on your forehead.
Among the 50 troops led by Mu Qingyuan, except for those who were leading the way, the rest were stationed outside the city.
On that day, Jiang Yu changed into the uniform of a soldier that she had prepared long ago, looked in the mirror, and felt that except for her fair skin, she really looked like that.
At the gate of the palace, Qiao Qi was waiting for her with a horse.
Qiao Qi also changed the attire of the guards in the palace and put on a military uniform.
Seeing Jiang Yu, he stepped forward and asked, "Does your ladyship know how to ride a horse? If not, you can also take a carriage."
"Yes!" Jiang Yu readily took the rope.
She has been able to ride a horse since she was a child, and galloping on a horse is even more commonplace.
"However, you can't call me your empress anymore. Just call me Jiang Yu!"
"Yes."
Seeing that Jiang Yu got on the horse, Qiao Qi's movements were skillful, and he was very experienced in urging the horse to a trot, so he was relieved and got on the horse himself.
"What about the emperor?"
Looking around, only the soldiers ready to go, did not see Mu Qingyuan, Jiang Yu asked involuntarily.
"The emperor is inspecting ahead, you can't see it now, we will set off in a while."
Jiang Yu nodded silently.
"Then what do I need to do on weekdays? The emperor asked me to ask you. How about I call you Brother Qiao from now on?" Jiang Yu smiled.
Qiao Qi was stunned for a while, and soon smiled heartily: "Okay, no problem!"
"What do you want to do, that is, take care of the emperor's daily life, eat and drink, and occasionally pass on a message. Don't worry, there will be no danger in the camp of the Chinese army."
"Brother Qiao, I'm not afraid of danger, I really don't know what to do."
Qiao Qi enthusiastically said: "That's what I just said, what else is needed, the emperor will personally order you."
"Then... where do I live?" Jiang Yu was concerned about this.
If you live with other soldiers, you will inevitably be embarrassed or even lost your way.
But if you live alone in a camp, if you don't give a reasonable explanation, it will arouse suspicion from others.
Qiao Qi continued to tell her enthusiastically: "Don't worry about this matter, you and the emperor live in a tent, and it happens that you don't have to take turns to watch the night every night, it's fine for you to do the night watch."
Hearing this, Jiang Yu was taken aback.
Live in a tent?
What does it mean?
Wouldn't that mean staring at each other every day?
Even in the palace, except for that day in the study room where she slept on the couch and Mu Qingyuan read all night, she and Mu Qingyuan had never spent the night in the same room.
According to Qiao Qi, from today on, not only will he have to take care of Mu Qingyuan's daily life, but he will also live with him day and night?
While Jiang Yu was in a daze, the sound of a horn came from beside her ear.
"It's time to start. Let's hurry up and catch up." Qiao Qi said to Jiang Yu.
Qiao Qi led a total of six soldiers, and the rest were carefully selected smart young soldiers. They looked at Jiang Yu curiously.
Qiao Qi coughed lightly: "This is Jiang Yu, a fellow from my hometown, please take care of me."
"No problem! The boss's hometown is also our hometown!"
"It's the one with thin arms and legs, can he be a soldier?"
"Brother Jiang, from now on, you will hang out with me, Lao Wang, and I will guarantee that you will be popular and spicy!"
Qiao Qi waved his hands quickly when he heard that their words were getting more and more outrageous, "Come on, the more you say, the more biased. This is the youngest son of my old uncle. The family is in great pain. The old uncle is afraid of being too spoiled, so he specially asked him to be a soldier." Practice and experience. I think this child will not be able to practice for a while, so I will report to the emperor and become a personal soldier. He has no skills, so he will serve tea and water for the emperor. It is okay to see the lights and candles at night .”
After listening to Qiao Qi's explanation, everyone nodded and greeted Jiang Yu affectionately.
"Okay, let's talk when we have something to say, let's hurry up, the army is about to leave." Qiao Qi said solemnly.
Everyone took orders in unison, and followed Qiao Qi to pat the horse forward.
Jiang Yu was riding on the horse, and a strange emotion surged in her chest.
Just yesterday, she was still wearing silk clothes, with a high bun, jewelry and jade, and she was also sitting in a sedan chair when she went out.
But today, she was straddling the horse in a military uniform, and those nephrite and warm fragrances were left far behind by her.
For a long period of time, Jiang Yu will no longer be the Jiang beauty of Mingxi Palace, but Jiang Yu, an ordinary soldier beside the emperor.
"Look, the emperor is ahead!"
Jorge's horse trailed slightly behind her, and told her loudly.
Sure enough, there was a steed among the densely populated sergeants in front, and the man on the horse stood upright, exuding an imposing aura and noble demeanor, who else could it be if it wasn't Mu Qingyuan?
In an instant, they caught up with Mu Qingyuan.
Mu Qingyuan's eyes fell on Jiang Yu who was also riding a horse, and there was a hint of appreciation in his eyes.
Immediately, the tenderness in his eyes disappeared in a flash.
His resolute eyes looked at his soldiers and the people of Daxia.
"set off!"
he announced loudly.
After riding the horse for a long time, Jiang Yu realized that she was not used to riding a horse for a long time, and her legs were sore and sore.
She got off the horse with a grin, and Qiao Qi said with a smile: "After riding for a few more days, I will get used to it."
"Brother Qiao, I won't complain because of this."
"Tomorrow, you can wait on the emperor in the carriage. The emperor will approve some papers delivered by fast horses in the capital every day, and he will not ride a horse all the time."
"Let other people serve the emperor, I can."
Qiao Qi grinned: "The emperor said that he doesn't want others to serve him, so let the newcomer Jiang Yu serve him."
For some reason, Jiang Yu's face turned red because of this sentence.
"The tents are all set up. It's not long since we left the capital. All the conditions are still good. You should go to rest, eat and take a shower. When we go far, I'm afraid we will have to eat dry food. You can wash your face every day." It's not bad."
After Qiao Qi finished speaking cheerfully, he pointed Jiang Yu to the tent where Mu Qingyuan lived, and went to rest by himself.
It was getting late at this time, and campfires were lit everywhere.
Two of Qiao Qi's six men were guarding in front of Mu Qingyuan's tent. Seeing that it was Jiang Yu who was about to go in, they smiled and nodded, signaling her to go in.
Jiang Yu opened the tent door and walked in.
Simple tables, chairs and beds have been arranged inside, and candles are lit, but the lights are dim, far from the money-free arrangement in the palace.
There was a candlestick on a simple wooden table, and Mu Qingyuan sat on the ground in front of the table, with only a cushion on the ground.
He frowned, looking at the important memorial delivered by a fast horse today by the candlelight.
On the low table on the other side, there is a wooden plate with dishes and rice in it, but it seems that it has not been moved.
