Rebirth: Raising an Emperor as a Wife

Linjiang City, as the name suggests, is a city facing the river. Looking across the river, it is the former land of the Central Plains. Now, it has been occupied by Beihu for a long time.It has been so long in the hearts of today's Shenji people that they no longer know how rich the once fertile land of thousands of miles was.

Linjiang City is the first line of defense between Shenji and Beihu. It has always been the top priority of Shenji's military use. In addition to being guarded by heavy troops, beacon towers were built along the river, and the beacon towers stretched for dozens of years. Here, the nobles of Shenji are behind the beacon tower, dreaming of singing and dancing.

It was almost Yin time, when ordinary people were most sleepy, and the soldiers guarding the beacon tower fell asleep one by one. On the river, a few small boats slowly approached. They were said to be small boats, but they were not very small.Since the river was ruled, the area along the coast has been taken over by officers and soldiers, and the fishermen who rely on water for food have to find another way to make a living. The boat can be mixed very well.The draft of the hull is very shallow, so the sound of the water hitting is also very subtle, buried in the sound of the tide, it is inaudible.

The boat searched along the river bank for a long time, and finally found a place to dock at the end of Yinshi. It was a very thin tributary, and it was usually locked with a big chain. The chain was hidden deep in the water, and most people really couldn't find it. arrive.

The boatman of the boat earns his living by doing some smuggling work, so he is naturally good at it.In twos and threes, he dived into the water and released the chain, allowing the boat to enter the port.A few people got off the boat, all of them were young and strong men, but the other boats got off nearly ten horses. Hey, it was absolutely amazing. It was the first time I saw someone smuggling horses by water.

After counting the number of people and the horses, the group paid enough silver to prepare for the journey. The boatman salivated as he looked at the majestic Mongolian horses.

"It's really a good horse, brothers," the boatman walked up to a man who seemed to be the leader and said, "If you want to sell these horses, you must remember to ask me, Jiang Xiaoliu. Brother, I promise to give you a good one." The price will definitely not let you suffer."

The saliva he was talking about here was flying all over the place, and there was a tall and thick man beside him who was biting the horse and said impatiently: "How many times have I told you that we don't sell this horse. This horse is our brother's." This man's life, sell us to drink the northwest wind. Talk about it again, believe it or not, I will kill you." The man seemed to be really angry, and came to the boatman in three steps, holding his chest The front collar was pulled up.

The boatman walked on the water all the year round. He was skinny and dry. How could he stand up to his hands? He pulled his painful neck and yelled, "My lord, please forgive me, please forgive me."

That cowardice made a group of people burst into laughter.

The boatman had brought a few helpers with him, but he seemed to be frightened when he saw the battle, so he dared to avoid it from a distance, and he had to prevent the officers and soldiers from being too loud, so he lowered his voice and shouted towards this side , "My lord, we're just doing business on a small basis, so it's fine if you don't sell it, and there's no need to kill someone."

That's right, isn't business done slowly, and even if the negotiation fails, there is still a bit of affection to be met face to face.There is no one like him who would kill someone if he didn't agree with each other.

The strong man laughed a few times proudly, and with all his strength, like an eagle catching a chicken, he lifted the boatman up and down, which made the boatman scream.

Some of the brawny man's accomplices yelled:

"Brother Huzi, just kill this kind of coward. What are you talking about?"

"Yeah, don't waste time with him. We've got to hurry."

Each of them had a thick voice, as if a burst of brute force could be heard from their voices.

Not to mention, this boatman has been traveling for many years, and he still has good eyesight. The person who seems to be the leader is really a leader. Seeing that the noise is almost the same, he also said, "Okay, Huzi, We should be on our way."

"Okay," Hu Zi laughed when he heard the elder brother's words, and obediently threw the boatman down, but his movements were a little casual.

The poor boatman fell to the ground with his buttocks, and almost cried out in pain. Looking again, the group of people had already got on their horses and sped away.

The leader of this group is Xue Yao.

It is said that when the official came to his yard with the imperial decree that day, he had already passed away.When I was not dead, I always thought that I could protect the rivers and mountains with my own strength. When I was really about to die, I was relieved, at least I didn't have to watch the great mountains and rivers fall into the enemy's hands.

But the ghost knows what he went through, even he himself couldn't figure it out, finally he didn't have to play with that innocent emperor, but he woke up and returned to the Nangui boat.He didn't believe it at first, thinking he was dreaming, but when he opened his eyes again and saw Huzi's big face, he was so angry that he wished he could throw himself into the river and die again.However, there are people watching all around, so it is not easy to start.In desperation, he had no choice but to lead the people towards the established route.

Behind the beacon tower, there is an official road leading directly to Linjiang City.Because a large number of officers and soldiers have been stationed here for many years, a small market has been formed.It was almost dawn, and there were a few cock crows from the direction of the market, and the smell of meat buns from the breakfast shop spread far away.A group of people didn't want to linger here, and hurried along the direction pointed by the boatman.Soon they entered a dense forest.

Although the road pointed by the boatman is a shortcut, it is not easy to walk.There are few people in this dense forest, and the inaccessible place means that there is no way to go, but it's okay, although the weeds are knee-deep, there are few thorns.If you walk slowly, you can walk.

At the turn of spring and summer, the sky is not yet clear, and the dense forest covered by towering trees is even more gloomy.The dew in the forest was deep, and the clothes were wet. They were all men who grew up in the north. It was the first time they felt the damp air, and they felt uncomfortable all over.

Huzi lashed his horsewhip against the air, "Damn it, it looks like it's raining." Turning his head, he asked Xue Yao, "Brother, could it be that the skinny monkey lied to us, there are no people on this road."

"No, this direction is the direction to Xingdu." Jokingly, Xue Yaoxin said that he had already walked this road countless times. Back then, when he was guarding the line of defense in Linjiang Town, he had walked every inch of land here.Later, several times, in order to defend against foreign enemies, many traps were set in the forest.How could it be wrong.

"Brother, how do you know it's in this direction? Have you ever been to Xingdu?" Little Six, who was following behind them, led his horse and asked curiously.

"..."

How can someone answer these words? Xue Yao was stunned for a moment, and he couldn't tell him that he walked this road in his previous life?
