Su Xiaoxiao could feel that Wei Ting was in a very good mood, with a cold and domineering surface, but the little twitch that was inadvertently revealed was very much like a little tiger who had eaten pig balls.

Wei Ting took Su Xiaoxiao's hand out of the cave.

The two saw Xiao Duye and his several guards who were brought back by Jing Yi, they didn't know it, they were startled when they saw it, they didn't see each other for a day and a night, Xiao Duye was like being sucked dry by a female ghost It seemed that his face was pale, his eye sockets were sunken, and his face was haggard.

Su Xiaoxiao snorted: "His Royal Highness Liang, have you run into a ghost?"

Xiao Duye gave Su Xiaoxiao a hard look, his body was covered with thick leather, and he was almost unable to speak due to the cold.

The damn girl left him and Jing Yi in the middle of the night and left first. It was freezing cold, and he fell down. He fell into a daze, so he had to find a cave to settle down.

But what good place could a cave be? It was damp and cold, and it was not enough to light a fire, and the cold wind wrapped in ice balls and poured straight into it.

If it wasn't for his fate, he would have frozen to death inside!

Soon, he saw Wei Ting beside Su Xiaoxiao, and frowned: "Why are you here?"

Wei Ting didn't fear him, and said flatly: "No comment."

Xiao Duye said coldly: "If you leave Beijing privately, you won't be afraid that this king will go back and read your book!"

Wei Ting said confidently: "Your Highness just go to attend and see if His Majesty will punish me."

Xiao Duye was taken aback: "Did your father ask you to come?"

Wei Ting didn't say yes, and he didn't say no.

No matter how stupid Xiao Duye was, he understood that Wei Ting had come to the border by order, and he was acting secretly like himself. He couldn't help but wonder, what mission did the emperor arrange for Wei Ting?

I will never come to find medicine.

No, not like.

medicine?

Xiao Duye thought to himself that he was stunned by the cold, and he almost forgot the business. He looked at Su Xiaoxiao with a serious face: "Where's the medicine? Have you picked it?"

"I got it, give it."

Su Xiaoxiao took out a piece of gastrodia elata from Wei Ting's bag and threw it to him.

Xiao Duye's expression changed, and he quickly caught it with his hands: "You carefully broke it!"

This gastrodia elata is an ordinary gastrodia elata, which she had prepared in advance in the pharmacy, and it was just put into Wei Ting's bag this morning.

Xiao Duye frowned: "Why does Gu feel that this plant of Gastrodia elata is nothing special?"

Xiao Duye didn't know medicine, and he didn't know Gastrodia elata even if he was given it. He simply thought that this Gastrodia elata was very ordinary.

"You can't make a mistake, can you?"

He asked Su Xiaoxiao suspiciously.

Su Xiaoxiao said: "Your Highness, you don't have to be suspicious of the employer, and you don't need to be suspicious. If you can't trust me, you can bring another doctor to Tianshan some other day."

Xiao Duye thought of the experience of almost dying in Tianshan, and said that he didn't want to come here for the second time in his life.

Forget it, she is also Zhuge Qing's doctor, she will never fool Zhuge Qing with a fake Tianma.

Su Xiaoxiao will not fool Zhuge Qing, she is simply worried about handing over the real Xueyu Tianma to him.

It's time to go back to Broken North Pass, they came here secretly, so naturally they have to return secretly.

Xiao Duye disagreed, and he said to Su Xiao: "Don't you have the token He Lianye gave you in your hand? So you can't pass the checkpoint openly? I was anxious to find medicine before, but now that the medicinal materials are in hand, it is much more unsafe to walk the road gone?"

Su Xiaoxiao smiled faintly: "If Wei Ting's identity is exposed and affects the tasks assigned to him by His Majesty, can His Highness King Liang bear the responsibility?"

Xiao Duye fell silent.

It took a whole day for the group to walk out of the Tianshan Mountains, and at midnight, they arrived at Beiyan's military camp.

Wei Ting looked at the number of patrolling soldiers in the camp, which obviously doubled, and said in a low voice, "Why is the security so tight? You were exposed when you came here?"

Su Xiaoxiao: "It's not me."

Jing Yi: "It's not me either."

Xiao Duye: "..."

It's not him, well, it's his guard.

Wei Ting and Jing Yi took the lead and helped Su break the rear.

A group of people avoided the patrolling soldiers, walked around the sleeping tents, and walked cautiously towards the iron net ahead.

Halfway through, Wei Ting stopped suddenly.

Xiao Duye almost bumped into his back, he gritted his teeth, wanted to reprimand, but worried about being exposed.

There were no lamps in the camp, and Wei Ting would not have noticed the movement inside if it hadn't been for Wei Ting's sharp ears.

"The general is really here? Is the news reliable?"

"It's a personal letter from the general. He has arrived in Wuzhen and plans to rest there for three days."

"What next? Does the general have any instructions?"

"Not yet, you and I will wait for the general's news. In addition, the barracks must be more alert, and the omissions of the night before yesterday must not happen again. You know, the general's rule is strict."

"I see."

Afterwards, the two exchanged a few words, one of them left the tent, and the other also rested.

Everyone held their breath until the other party walked away before leaving lightly.

Half an hour later, they returned to Suibei Pass, and the two carriages were parked on the official road, watched by Xiao Duye's long entourage and the driver.

Without further ado, Xiao Duye got into the carriage and lit the stove to keep warm.

Su Xiaoxiao and his party also got into Jing Yi's carriage.

Fusu stood guard outside.

"Where is Wuzhen?" Su Xiaoxiao asked.

Wei Ting said: "The direction to the northeast is about a hundred miles. If you speed up your horse and change horses frequently, you can reach it in a day."

After a pause, he said again, "It's just in time for him to come to the border, saving me from going to Yanjing to find him."

Jing Yi was also in the carriage, Wei Ting didn't deliberately hide his mission from him.

Su Xiaoxiao thought for a while: "Then I'll wait for you to finish the task and go back to Beijing together."

Wei Ting took a deep look at her, with a small expression that you really don't want to part with me and want to cling to me every day, he sighed: "If you insist, that's great."

Wait, why am I insisting?

Going back together, wouldn't a carriage save a lot of travel expenses?

Will you have a good time?

"It's not too late, I'm going to Wuzhen now, and besides, I'll leave Fusu to you."

As Wei Ting said, he picked up the cloak on the bench and put it on for her, and tied the ribbon for him bit by bit with knuckle fingers, "I'll try to come back as soon as possible."

Jing Yi: Hurry up, hurry up!

"You bring Fusu with you." Su Xiao said, "He Lianye is not that easy to kill."

Wei Ting smiled: "Worried about me?"

Jing Yi: "Who told you to cook?"

Wei Ting: "..."

Wei Ting still kept Fusu, the reason was that if he couldn't kill He Lianye now, Fusu would die if he went, if he could kill, Fusu didn't want to follow.

Fu Su said to Su Xiaoxiao: "Actually, the young master is worried about you."

Wei Ting: The wages will increase next month.

Wei Ting set off overnight and sneaked into Beiyan.

Su Xiaoxiao and his party went to a nearby inn to settle down.

The conditions at the border are difficult, and there are no so-called upper houses in the post station, and they are all ordinary houses.

Xiao Duye couldn't help feeling disgusted again, but because he was too tired, he fell asleep quickly.

"Didn't sleep?"

Jing Yi knocked on the door of Su Xiaoxiao's room.

"Didn't sleep, come in." Su Xiao.

Jing Yi entered with a bowl of ginger soup: "Let the cook at the inn boil it, drink some ginger soup to warm your body."

"Thank you." Su Xiaoxiao took the ginger soup.

Jing Yi sat down opposite her: "What are you thinking?"

Su Xiaoxiao said seriously: "He Lianye came to Wuzhen quietly, and listening to the conversation of the two Beiyan people, it is very likely that he will come to the border."

Jing Yi asked, "Are you worried about a war?"

Su Xiaoxiao nodded: "As you have seen along the way, the people at the border are miserable, and the streets are full of beggars and refugees. If the people live like this, the lives of the soldiers may not be easy. If there is a real fight, I am afraid they will Hungry."

Jing Yi paused, and asked, "Didn't the old Hu Guogong and Su Mo transport a batch of grain and grass to Beijing?"

Su Xiaoxiao shook her head: "Those are far from enough, and the grain and grass are just a cover, mainly to transport weapons."

This was considered a secret, but there was nothing he couldn't say to Jing Yi, even Wei Ting trusted him while fighting with him.

Jing Yi looked at her: "You've already thought of a countermeasure, haven't you?"

Su Xiaoxiao stared and said: "I don't know if it will be too late, but tomorrow morning, you will follow me to the surrounding cities to buy food and grass."
