the small courtyard, each with a figure and appearance that catches the eye.Only Yang Lin, a man among all the flowers, stood out."Are you Yang Lin"Zhao Deyi frowned, becoming even more displeased."I...When Yang Lin's carriage appeared at the village entrance, the villagers who had been waiting there long parted ways to make a road, solemnly watching Yang Lin in the carriage.

"...someone suddenly shouted, “Master, come back soon!”

"

The rest also shouted in unison, “Come back soon! We’re waiting for you!”

Suddenly, shouts filled the air!

Yang Lin jumped out of the carriage and waved to the crowd.

Zhong Tao walked over and nodded. "Everything is ready, we can depart at any time."

"Oh, I wonder where Mr. Kong and the others are"

Looking around, however, I saw no sign of Kong Qiu or his four disciples.

It was only when Li Yuhua came to see them off that she said, "They had already left a step ahead yesterday.”

What

Yang Lin was startled and widened his eyes, saying: "They couldn't be fooling me, could they"

If they leave here and don't go to Sui Zhou, wouldn't they be dumbfounded when I arrive in Sui Zhou

Li Yuyao rolled her eyes and said, "You think Master Kong and the others are that kind of people Once they make a promise, they always keep it. Rest assured, I already spoke to them yesterday. They'll leave early and set things up for you in advance. By the time you reach Suizhou, everything will be almost resolved."

Yang Lin's mouth twitched.

Everything is solved, what else are you going to do

He's really clueless about what his wife is up to!

Had he not already guessed her identity and known that there was a deep meaning behind her arrangements, he would never have traveled such a long distance for this.

"Well, then just ignore them."

Just as Yang Lin was about to order the troops to move out, a woman suddenly rushed out of the crowd.

"How did you come here"

Looking at Liu Qiaoyun running over, Yang Lin hurriedly stepped forward to help her up.

This girl was seriously injured before, and it took a lot of effort to save her life. She had just recovered from her injuries, so Yang Lin didn't want to disturb her. He deliberately kept his plan to leave a secret from her, but she still came.

Take me with you, okay

Liu Qiao Yun looked at Yang Lin with big, expectant eyes.

Just as she was about to refuse, Liu Qiuyun hurriedly followed up, "Remember what you said before, about taking me away with you"

With a surge of courage, Liu Qiao Yun grabbed Yang Lin's arm, her eyes brimming with anticipation.

Yang Lin's mouth twitched again, looking at that pitiful gaze, but the words of refusal were hard to utter.

I did say things like that before, but that was a long time ago. And well, I guess... it's on me.

However, at that time, it was because the Liu family disapproved of their relationship, so the two planned to elope.

Now he's just going out, he's not gone forever.

"Qiao Yun, your injury hasn't healed yet, stay home and rest well. I'll be back soon." Yang Lin comforted him.

Liu Qiuyun shook her head. "The wounds are healed, really, I can do it! I want to go out with you and see the world!"

Look at this world…

This made Yang Lin even more unable to refuse.

Looking at her complexion, and then at Liu Qiuyun's mother-in-law, Liu Zhangshi, and younger brother, Liu Liang, who were already packing her belongings for the journey, it was clear that not only did her family know about this, but they were also supportive of her.

"Okay, but you have to listen on the way and not run around!"

"Hmm!" Liu Qiyun immediately smiled and nodded obediently. Yang Lin helped Liu Qiyun onto the carriage and looked at Li Yuyao, but he found that the Empress's face didn't change much.

"Bro."

Little Nine also squeezed over.

"Oh, you are the pillar of our family, so you must stay at home!"

Before the other party could speak, Yang Lin hurriedly said.

Since the tofu shop first opened, Little Jiu has been in charge of the accounts. No one knows the figures from each workshop better than him. He's already left, and if we take her away too, Mistress will be overwhelmed alone.

Han Mengzhu pouted. "The main pillar is the main pillar, what's a small main pillar Alright, alright, I just wanted to ask, will you be passing through Nanyang on this trip"

"No." Yang Lin shook his head.

This trip to Suizhou, the route has been planned, after leaving Jiange County, passing through Zhou County, all the way south!

Looking at her expectant eyes, Yang Lin knew she missed home too!

At first, I had promised her that when I had the opportunity, I would go to Nanyang and bring her mother over. Apparently, she still remembered it.

Yang Lin rubbed the little guy's head and said seriously, "Although going to rob the County Magistrate's wife is a bit dangerous, this time when I come back, I can take a detour to Nanyang and give it a try."

"Hmm!"

Han Mengzhu hurriedly nodded her head.

"

No one has anything to do this time, right If we don't leave now, the sun will set. Let's go.

"

Yang Lin jumped onto the carriage and waved to the women behind him, as well as the villagers on either side.

At this moment, the sun had just come out, and the wide road leading out of the village was bathed in a golden glow. Everyone burst into laughter at Yang Lin's words.

A crowd laughed and waved, but in their smiles, tears fell unnoticed.

Li Yuxiang clenched her fists and said in a voice only she could hear, "Be sure to come back safe!"

Yang Lin's carriage led the way, followed by nineteen carriages loaded with grain and supplies. Behind them was a contingent of five hundred men led by Zhong Tao.

Although there were only five hundred people, the entire squad still looked impressive and imposing, with no end in sight.

This newly formed team, established yesterday, was named "The Second Guard of Koushan Village" by Yang Lin.

Although the name might sound a bit old-fashioned, the equipment is truly powerful!

Each person has a long spear forged from fine steel.

The biggest advantage of this spear is that it's long and sharp! It's invincible! Even if the enemy is wearing leather armor, it can pierce right through!

In addition, twenty elite guards are equipped with crossbows. For this trip, they have specially prepared 3,000 iron crossbow bolts and 500 steel crossbow bolts!

This squad has spearmen and crossbowmen. If, according to the normal plan, we also equip them with shield bearers, at a critical moment, they could form a Macedonian phalanx, becoming an unstoppable killing machine!

This time, we may not have a battle when we go out. The journey is long and heavy to carry, and since we prepared in a hurry, we didn't bring many shields. Each person has a spear or a crossbow, traveling light.

By noon, the large group had arrived at Jianghe County.

They found an open space and let everyone build a fire to cook and rest in place. He then put on his purple robe, and the two of them entered Jianghe County together.

Although it hasn't been long since I last left, communication is inconvenient in this era and news from the county town to the village rarely reaches here. Therefore, I don't know how my elder sisters, three, four, five, and six, are doing in the county town.

After entering the city, Yang Lin entrusted a grain store he managed to his fifth sister.

This store has a back house, and Yang Lin knows that the fifth sister lives there.

But once inside the shop, I only saw one clerk and no sign of Five Sister.

Where is your employer located

"The fellow didn't know Yang Lin. He just shook his head and said, 'The master isn't here. Who are you...'"

Just then, someone with a bruised nose and swollen face rushed in, shouting: “Madam’s in trouble! Quickly go find the bodyguard unit for help!!”to fight bandits And even if he had the guts, who could possibly stand against them""Come on, come on, let's go see what's going on."The convoy from Koushan Village stopped in the open space at the ce...
