Chapter 624: Who can save me (1)

Translator: 549690339

After the sun had set, the sky remained dark for a long time before it was replaced by night.

On a slightly higher mountain slope, the diplomatic corps lit a bonfire and set up their tents.

The women did not get out of the carriage. They slept in the carriage with a thin blanket wrapped around them. Xu Qi ‘an and the other high-ranking officials slept in the tents. The guards at the bottom level slept around the bonfire.

Fortunately, it was the middle of spring, so the night was neither hot nor cold. It was quite comfortable when the wind blew. It was just that there were a lot of mosquitoes, and they liked these “fat sheep” with strong bodies.

“Pa pa” sounds were heard continuously as the soldiers cursed and chased away the mosquitoes.

When Xu Qi ‘an returned from his patrol and saw this scene, he knew that the diplomatic mission did not have any herbs to repel mosquitoes. At most, they had some medicine for wounds and commonly used detoxification pills.

As for the mosquito repellant herbs, they could not be so detailed.

“Why are there so many mosquitoes?” The judge of the court of judicial review was dressed in a white unlined garment. He came out of the tent and complained, ‘ my ears are buzzing with insects. How can I sleep? how can I sleep? ‘

Being pampered was a common problem for civil officials. Although there had been some shaking on the ship earlier, they were all small problems that could be endured.

It was much tougher to travel by land. There was no bed, no coffee table, no exquisite food, and he had to endure mosquito bites.

When the two censors heard the complaints of the Deputy of the court of judicial review, they immediately came out and echoed, frowning. “Difficult, difficult.”

At this time, it seemed that Xu Qi ‘an’s suggestion was stupid. If they hadn’t changed the land route, they would still be floating in the water, sleeping in a soft bed and resting in a separate room.

The Dragon, who had copper skin and iron bones, was not afraid of mosquito bites. It mocked, ‘”‘Since we’ve chosen to travel by land, we naturally have to bear the consequences. We’ve only been on the road for a day, we can still make it if we change our route to the water route.”

Xu Qi ‘an took out a special spice and said loudly, ” I have some insect repellent here. Take a piece and throw it into the bonfire. It will repel the mosquitoes.

The soldiers were overjoyed. They took the spices from Xu Qi ‘an and threw them into the bonfire.

The spice burned slowly in the fire, and a slightly pungent fragrance spread out. After a moment, there were no mosquitoes around.

haha, there really aren’t any mosquitoes. This is so comfortable.

“Thanks to Lord Xu, I can now sleep in peace.”

By the bonfires, the soldiers were not stingy with their praises. Xu yinluo’s spices had solved the problem in front of them. They felt much more comfortable after they were free from mosquito bites.

Happiness started from these small treatments. If it was another official or leader, he would definitely not care about the small troubles of the soldiers at the bottom.

He also wouldn’t think that if he didn’t sleep well at night, he would be tired the next day and have to hurry on with his journey … If it was a vicious cycle, it would lead to a decline in the combat power of the entire team.

As the soldiers ‘happiness increased, it would also be reflected to their leaders, and they would become more respectful and acknowledged their leaders.

For example, when Xu Qi ‘an suggested that they change their route and take a more difficult land route, the entire team complained in private. However, not including the 100 Imperial Guards, they did not complain at all.

This was recognition.

The two censors and the Deputy of the Supreme Court asked for a piece of incense and returned to the tent to light it up with an incense burner. The effect of repelling the mosquitoes was immediate. As expected, there was no more buzzing sound.

Lord Xu even prepared such a small thing. You are indeed an expert in solving cases. Your thoughts are meticulous.

The Imperial Censorate’s Censorate came out of the tent and loudly praised.

In the carriage not far away, the maidservants smelled a faint fragrance and said happily, “”This smell is quite good. Let’s go get some to burn to drive away the mosquitoes.”

what’s there to take? Xu yinluo and general Ying are having a conflict. Don’t ask for a snub now. Another maidservant said.

I dont think so. Xu yinluo has a good personality. She’s especially gentle to us women. The maidservant said.

“Oh … I’m talking about general Ying. We’re people from the Prince’s Mansion, so we should know what we’re doing. No matter how good Xu yinluo is, we can’t forget who we are. Do you understand?”

yeah, and I heard that Xu yinluo is changing the land route. That’s why we’re working so hard.

As soon as she said that, the other maidservants began to criticize Xu yinluo one after another, saying ‘hate, hate’ and ‘hate’ non-stop.

The Queen curled up in the corner and sneered in disdain.

These brainless servants were as short-sighted as toads, and could only see the mosquitoes flying in front of them.

Although she was also tired, she also doubted whether it was really dangerous to cross the water, and she also doubted Xu Qi ‘an’s judgment. But she firmly supported Xu Qi ‘an’s decision.

He would rather suffer a little than encounter danger.

The judge of the Supreme Court lifted the curtain of the tent and looked at Xu

Qi ‘an, who was sitting with the soldiers. He asked, “”How confident are you, Lord Xu?”

He was referring to the ambush on the waterway and tactfully reminded Xu Qi ‘an to consider the bet.

After all, he had taken a lot of money from Xu Qi ‘an. The Deputy of the Supreme Court did not have any enmity with Xu Qi’ an and did not like him. The main reason was that the Minister of the Supreme Court had a great enmity with Xu Qi ‘an. As an official under the Minister of the Supreme Court, he had to sit upright.

Where did I get the confidence? letting Yang Yan step into the trap was just. test in itself … Xu Qi ‘an shook his head slightly and didn’t speak.

“According to the time, yang Jinluo should have arrived at the flowing Rock Beach by now,” said an imperial censor.”l’m sure he already knows if there’s an ambush.” When is he going to meet us?”

“I’ve left a secret signal along the way,” Xu Qi ‘an said.”He’ll follow it.”

With Jin Gong’s speed, it wouldn’t take long for him to catch up following the signal. At the latest, by tomorrow morning, and at the earliest, by tonight, they would be able to catch up.

Chu Xianglong and the other civil officials fell silent, each having their own thoughts as they waited for Yang Yan’s arrival.
