[Red Chamber] Jia Huan's Army

Mo Lian and Jia Huan left Yangzhou City with the remaining guard.But they also know that as long as they don't reach the capital safely, the journey will be full of dangers.But there is no good way, I can only pretend to go back without stopping.

Unlike when he came here, Mo Lian was pretending to be a wealthy son traveling alone, with a servant and a guard.And Jia Huan played the role of that servant.Although it may not be able to cover people's eyes and ears for those who are familiar with it, such a cover-up is enough for the current situation.

The group's journey was smooth until they arrived at Huai'an City, and Mo Lian keenly noticed that the security around them had been strengthened. Even when entering and leaving the city gate, there were more soldiers interrogating them.Seeing the long queue at the gate of the city, which took a long time to move a little, Mo Lian's face became more and more indifferent, probably now he and Jia Huan are both wanted criminals.

It was not convenient for Mo Lian and Jia Huan to inquire, so they sent their guards to the gate of the city to inquire.After the personal guard gave away some money, he finally found out the news, and came back to report after a while.It turned out that Zhao Tongzhi committed suicide that night, but Li Zhifu issued an arrest warrant in the name of killing important government officials.Although they did not clearly state the identities of Jia Huan and Jia Huan, they ordered people to send the portraits to the surrounding cities. I am afraid that it would not be easy for the two of them to enter the city.It’s just that this city still has to enter. Firstly, the three of them must go to the city to repost from south to north; secondly, to inquire about news; Now that he doesn't choose to enter the city, the paths that must be passed around the city are probably full of traps, just waiting for him to jump in.

Mo Lian thought for a while, and the only one among the three who was not wanted was this guard who had hardly acted with him, so he ordered, "You go into the city and get a set of women's clothing according to his figure."

Listening to Mo Lian's orders, Jia Huan's mind was in a daze. Did he pretend to be a woman?So he looked at Mo Lian in disbelief.

"Be patient in order to escape for your life." Mo Lian looked at Jia Huan's stunned look, rubbed his head, and said.

Jia Huan stroked his messy hair, and murmured unhappily, "I'm not a woman." But she was also very tactful and didn't refute.As the prince, Mo Liangui would not do such a self-declining thing until a critical moment, and the appearance of the eldest brother of the guard is really not suitable. It's perfect for girls who have not yet reached their prime.And Jia Huan himself is not a sour scholar who cares about such small things, so even though he muttered, Jia Huan still followed suit.After all, compared with his own life, how can a man's self-esteem be eaten.

When the swift-handed guard returned with a set of women's attire, Jia Huan put on the pink and tender women's attire without saying a word. The almighty guard even combed a girl's hair for him. bun.Jia Huan twitched the corners of his mouth, but finally resisted the urge to take off his clothes.

Mo Lian sized up Jia Huan, then nodded with satisfaction: "Very good, I won't be able to see it this way."

Jia Huan secretly rolled his eyes in response.

In fact, Mo Lian still has something to say: Jia Huan like this really looks like a pretty little girl.Lips are not pimple but vermilion, eyebrows are not drawn but dark, just walk out like this, probably no one will believe that he is a boy.Mo Lian even frowned and thought, although this has achieved the effect of concealing his identity, will it be too conspicuous.I don't know if Jia Huan would turn his back on the spot if he knew what he said.

As expected, the three of them entered Huai'an City smoothly without any suspicion.

I don't know if it was Mo Lian's intention to play tricks, or if he really thought so, Mo Lian set up a carriage, several sets of women's clothing, and several sets of servant clothes in Huai'an City, and even bought a silly-looking little maid.This time, she transformed into a young lady from a rich family who went to Beijing to visit relatives with her servants and maids.Even better, he happened to meet the caravan going north at the inn, so after giving some money to the leader of the caravan, this "wealthy young lady with little experience in the world" happened to be able to go with the caravan.It has to be said that this can be described as a change of appearance, unless someone follows it all the way, it is really difficult to see through.So although Jia Huan had to pretend to be a woman all the way, he didn't want to, but he had to admit that it was a brilliant idea.

Following the caravan on the road, although it was a little slower than the three of them rushing on horseback, at any rate, their lives were much safer.And those evidences were all placed on Mo Lian's body neatly.

Along the way, everyone in the caravan knew that this young lady surnamed Wang didn't talk much, she loved to nest in the carriage, and even let the maids bring food into the carriage.But what makes people gossip the most is that this lady obviously trusts her cold-faced guard more.Sometimes even disregarding the defense of men and women, let the guards enter the carriage to rest.This lonely man and widow, the boring merchants in the caravan blinked ambiguously, and then smiled knowingly.There is no way, on this road that has gone back and forth countless times, there must be some fun to adjust the boring journey.

Jia Huan was completely unaware of the various erotic thoughts in the minds of the businessmen outside, and he was about to go crazy now that he was bored in the carriage.This feeling of only being able to nest in a small space every day is simply terrible, even more difficult than that period of recuperation.

"Jingxi, when can I go out?" Jia Huan looked listlessly at the fourth prince sitting across from him, even though he could now call Mo Lian in private because of a disguise, it didn't make him feel better.In normal times, facing Mo Lian being so favored by Mo Lian, Jia Huan would have been overjoyed.

"Hurry up," Mo Lian still looked as if he was sitting firmly on a mountain, "This caravan is only going to Shandong, and when we are in Jinan, we need to go on the road alone."

Jia Huan thought for a while, counted the days, there were only two or three days left to arrive in Jinan, and the rest of the days seemed not so difficult, so he closed his mouth in satisfaction.If he continued to stay in the carriage like this, he would really think that he was some kind of lady, and when he returned to the camp in the suburbs of Beijing, he would still be a brigade commander. He might not even be holding his gun properly.

When he finally arrived in Jinan, Jia Huan couldn't hide his excitement all over his face. It felt so good to change into men's clothing.

The journey from Jinan to Beijing is not too far away, if the horses are really non-stop, it will only take one day to return to Beijing.Obviously, Mo Lian was planning to do so at this time.After resting, the group set off.What Mo Lian and the others didn't know was that after they left, all cities in the north, including Jinan City, were under martial law. At the same time, some bad news spread in the capital.At this time, Mo Lian and the others were galloping on the path.The reason why he didn't follow the official path was actually to save time.The three people present agreed that since they were approaching the capital, although they should not relax, the danger was much less than when they were in Jiangnan, and there should be nothing wrong with the small road.

Riding a horse is not a pleasant experience, especially if you have to be on a horse all day like you are now.Jia Huan, who hadn't eaten or cried for so many days, was suffering because of it. He could no longer feel the existence below the waist, and if he kept going like this, his whole body would fall apart.But seeing that the victory was in sight, Jia Huan would not hold back at such a time, so he had to grit his teeth and ride his horse to keep up.

When the sun was high and the three of them had just passed Leling County, Mo Lian looked at the sky, stopped and said, "Take a rest, and eat by the way." Jia Huan was able to rest now, and supported his stiff body to swing from the horse Come down wobbly.

Mo Lian noticed Jia Huan's movements from the corner of his eyes, shook his head, and said, "Huan'er, you need to exercise after you go back."

Jia Huan felt a little ashamed when he heard this. He was obviously born in the army, but he was not as good as Mo Lian, a pampered prince who had suffered so much. It was really embarrassing, so he blushed and nodded.

Eat and drink enough, this is the time when people are most relaxed, but accidents happen suddenly.A feathered arrow pierced through the air from the depths of the dense forest.Jia Huan and the other three were not good at it, and when they realized something was wrong, they had already moved away.The feather arrow was firmly nailed to the tree that Mo Lian was leaning on just now, and the arrow feathers kept shaking.

The three never expected that they would be ambushed in the least likely place to be attacked.At this time, there is no time to think about who is coming and what is the purpose, so I can only get on the horse and leave here quickly.

When they were ready to fight hard, the opponent did not catch up, as if the arrow was just an illusion.Of course they knew that this was impossible, there was a high possibility that there was a trap ahead, and this arrow was just a sign, like a cat catching a mouse, the other party was teasing them.

Thinking of this, Mo Lian frowned, he didn't like the feeling of being played with in the palm of his hand.Since he chose to ambush here, it is very likely that something happened in the capital, which caused one of his good brothers to decide to find someone to do it himself.Otherwise, with the abilities of those people in Jiangnan, they wouldn't have such great energy.

It's a pity that there is only one way forward from here, even if there is a trap ahead, they have to jump.

"Listen," Mo Lian's voice was as cold as ice because he was in a bad mood, "I'll get out of the siege and put things on Lian Hong. You can rush to Qingyun County. The county magistrate there is mine. You can trust me." .Let him send troops to rescue."

Then he looked at Jia Huan, the cold light in his eyes was not so strong, and he seemed to be softer, "They probably know Huan'er by face, so Huan'er will probably live and die with me today."

Jia Huan listened to Mo Lian's order, his hands were sweating, but his blood was boiling strangely, so he looked straight at Mo Lian without changing his face, and said firmly, "Huan will definitely live up to your highness's expectations!"

After everything was arranged, he continued to move forward, and he saw a figure blocking the road.
