"Xiaobai!" Gu Yue recognized the horse at a glance.

These are Wumen's horses. Twins were born in the same litter, one black and one white, which is almost unprecedented. The two ponies are strong and healthy. Although they were a little small when they were born, they grew up very quickly and soon became a pair of horse brothers who work well together.

If they were in a military camp, such tacitly-matched horses might be able to play a greater role, but it’s also better to have some free time. At least Xiao Hei and Xiao Bai have never been injured and are living happily.

Gu Yue touched the horse's neck excitedly and looked around, but he didn't see anyone who looked like a Wumen person.

Apart from the passers-by who were staring at him, there was only this horse.

"Did you come here by yourself?" Gu Yue smoothed the horse's hair.

Xiaobai's eyelashes are also white. It blinked and exhaled a puff of air from its nostrils.

The owner of the tea stall nearby saw that the white horse seemed to be in a stable mood, so he asked, "Is this your horse?"

"...Yes." Gu Yue looked around and saw that half of the table in the tea stall had fallen over, and several tea bowls were broken. "Sorry, boss, I'll compensate you."

He first took Xiaobai out of the tea shed, then turned back, straightened the tea table and benches, and then took out his purse.

Seeing his good attitude, the boss could no longer vent his anger. He watched Gu Yue take out a silver particle and put it in his hand, and then looked at the broken porcelain bowl and the insignificant table, chairs and benches...

"Okay, tie your horse up next time," the boss said angrily.

Gu Yue thought to himself, why does it sound like cursing?

He led Xiaobai to the official road. Xiaobai didn't get to drink tea, so he could only lower his head to pull grass from the ground to eat. Gu Yue looked at the horse - the horse's body was covered with branches and grass debris, and the whole horse was yellow and dark, and it looked like it hadn't been taken care of for a long time. The bridle and saddle were complete, but there was a layer of dust on it.

Could it be that he ran away secretly? Gu Yue thought.

He is getting better now! Is this the legendary protagonist halo? Just when I was worried about not being able to rent a horse, God sent one directly to me!

Gu Yue turned back suddenly.

nobody.

Did he really come here by himself? Was it some kind of coincidence? On the way to Ganzhou, they rode Xiao Hei and Xiao Bai, and perhaps they became familiar with each other at that time. Afterwards, Xiao Bai also accompanied Wu Huo to Jiangnan Road, and then followed him to Yunxi. He saw it before executing the death escape plan.

Don't think about it anymore. Gu Yue brushed off the dust on the saddle and rode on Xiaobai.

The horse raised its hooves, turned, and headed south towards Luoyang.

……

"Run away?" Gu Xu raised his eyes and frowned.

"We have already sent people to chase him." Wu Feng said, "But... this must have been planned in advance. He has made all the preparations, so I'm afraid it will be difficult to catch up with him."

Gu Xu put down the intelligence letter in his hand.

"Control the road leading to Luoyang." Gu Xu said, "We are short of manpower, so we must act with caution. He is already at the end of his rope and can't cause any trouble."

"Yes." Wu Feng said, "Master, there is one more thing... Xiaobai came back from Yunxi a few days ago and escaped during the chaos when he entered the city."

Gu Xu asked: "Have you found it?"

"We didn't find it. We looked everywhere around here." Wu Feng said, "Xiao Bai is not a well-behaved dog... The horse breeder said that the reins were about to be chewed off by it, so maybe that's how it ran away."

Gu Xu was silent for a moment, then waved his hand: "Horses are intelligent. Since it wants to leave, there's no need to look for it."

Wu Feng said worriedly, "Will Xiao Hei follow him? They are brothers."

"How's Xiao Hei doing?" asked Wu Yan, who was sorting out the account books on the side.

"Xiao Hei looks quite calm, almost the same as usual." Wu Feng replied.

He was so distressed. These two horses had grown up with him. He would be upset if he lost either of them. However, he had searched all over Luoyang City and couldn't find any trace of Xiaobai. At this moment, it was not easy to assign people to look for a horse.

Xiaobai is a good horse, so even if he was caught, he wouldn't end up being stewed into horse soup. Wu Feng touched his chest and held back his tears.

Now the entire Dunxinbo Mansion has been completely renovated.

The emperor fell, so naturally there was no need to keep any of the former spies in the palace, and they were all arrested and imprisoned in the dungeon. Qin Zhaoyue naturally had nothing to say about this. Now Gu Xu was in the same line with him, and there was also the marriage with Jing, so although Qin Zhaoyue did not trust him completely, he did pay some attention to him.

Qin Zhaoyue and Jing Sang's marriage had passed the deadline and was completely settled. Everyone in the court congratulated them. The Hu family was wiped out, and when the officials were all holding their heads tightly, no one dared to cause trouble.

As for the Duke Dunxin's mansion, Qin Zhaoyue did not take it back because of Duke Dunxin's death, and it was not even left for a moment. The people applauded and no one said anything wrong about Gu Xu.

Gu Xu knew that Zhen Suhang was behind this.

The Dunxinbo Mansion, which has been renamed the Gu Mansion, will also welcome its mistress. This is the rumor among the people, and there are even rumors that Qin Zhaoyue and Gu Xu will get married on the same day. As for the true situation, who knows?

"He Gui is quick in settling accounts. Without him, it would take me a day to settle these few things." Wu Yan suddenly said.

Wu Feng also thought of these three people and said, "According to Fengtang, there is no trace of He Gui and others. They were not found in the dungeon of Anhe Village either. Could it be that..."

Wu Feng did not dare to think about it further. After hearing the news, Lu Junmei's family was sad for a long time. Chai Gui, who had grown into a middle-aged child, cried uncontrollably. The next day, he followed Feng Tang out to look for someone. He had practiced martial arts for several years, and it was time for him to gain experience.

Gu Xu remained silent. Although his suspicion of Gu Yue's subordinates had not diminished, finding He Gui and the other two was no longer the most important thing. Since he had confirmed the final identity of the mastermind, he naturally would not bother with the details.

"Let's withdraw our personnel first." Gu Xu said, "We have an important task to do soon."

……

Liangzhou.

The Xidi "Princess" Yishaguli wore a veil and looked to the southeast with her hands on the pergola.

"I heard that northern Qin is moist and warm, but this place is desolate," she said.

Liangzhou Governor Hui Shuye smiled and said: "Northern Qin has a vast territory, with warm and humid counties and dry counties."

"Liangzhou is much more beautiful than when I came here as a child," said Yishaguli. She no longer looked toward the southeast, which was covered with a layer of fog, but looked toward the city of Liangzhou.

Hui Shuye did not say anything. He had nothing to talk about with the Western Di people, and since Northern Qin was strong, there was no need for him to curry favor with anyone - even if this person might very well become the emperor or the new emperor's concubine.

Yishaguli looked at the people coming and going in the city and suddenly asked, "Are there still Western Hu people here?"

"Liangzhou is an important trade route, so it's not surprising to have people from all over the place." He replied to Shu Ye.

Yishaguli, however, was mesmerized by the sight.
