Don't have to worry about Lu Jinxi, they will plan their itinerary.
When he was resting at noon the day before, He Xing came to report to Lu Jinxi and discussed the itinerary.
The distance between the two places is about 300 miles, and because of Gu Juefei's previous warning, they only travel during the day, and at night they have to find a place to rest, so they have to take a long detour.
After all, the journey will take nearly four days.
Although it sounds like it has been a while, but safety is better, so Lu Jinxi has no objection.
Along the way, she sleeps when she is sleepy, and when she wakes up, she enjoys the scenery, reads a book, or talks to the nearest He Xing.
He Xing was still very cautious at first, after all, he had been trained by Gu Juefei before.
But since Lu Jinxi wanted to ask, it was impossible for him not to answer, and he didn't have the guts to not answer, so they got to know each other after a few visits.
"He Xing, the eldest son of your family is just a literati. It's just a matter of getting the Tao'an scholar Meng Ji to join him. How can he subdue you? According to your words, you turned out to be a bandit in the green forest."
It's already the fourth day.
It was sunny and sunny outside the carriage, and Lu Jinxi read almost all the books he was carrying. He was a little bored, so he lifted the curtain of the carriage and chatted with He Xing, who was riding a horse beside him.
He Xing was a little speechless.
In the past few days, he has already experienced the "special" of this general's wife.
She is not picky about food and lodging along the way, and she doesn't care what others think. The so-called "men and women's defense" doesn't pay much attention. If you ignore her outstanding appearance and weak body, she doesn't look like a weak woman from a boudoir. On the contrary, he has an amazing ability.
Even the brothers who walked all the way, mentioned her when they lay down and chatted at night, and they all had a rare expression on their faces.
After all, they had never seen such a woman before.
He has a high status, speaks elegantly, and suffers a lot, not to mention the air of keeping people at a distance.
They were nominally the guards of the Grand Master's Mansion, but in fact they were all raised by Gu Juefei, who only listened to his orders. In Meng Ji's words, it is an out-and-out "Gu Juefei's lackey."
As for Lu Jinxi, they had their own guesses.
But no one felt that such a woman was not worthy of their eldest son, and no one felt that the eldest son had a problem with his vision.
Even He Xing was a little surprised by such an unprecedented unification.
Even an idiot can see that the eldest son is unusual for the official wife of the general's mansion.
So at this moment, she lifted the curtain and came out to ask questions. Although He Xing felt a little awkward, he didn't dare not to answer, he just said honestly: "This subordinate met the eldest son when he was blocking the road in Shaanxi. He robbed the caravan, but whoever thought that the eldest son was among the people accompanying him, he convinced everyone in a few words. The subordinates were naturally convinced. The eldest son saw that I was good, so he asked me to escort the caravan together. I went. It didn't take long for him to leave Shaanxi and gave me a letter asking me to go to the Grand Master's Mansion as a guard. Since then, my subordinates have a place to live."
"Caravan?"
Lu Jinxi raised his eyebrows immediately, feeling that it was somewhat unimaginable that Gu Juefei was among the caravan. After all, he is an uncompromising noble son.
"Mixing in the caravan, I persuaded you in a few words. How did you persuade?"
"Speaking of which, you are afraid to sigh. At that time, it was Sheng Longchang's caravan that we were going to rob." He Xing laughed, his voice thick and rough, "At that time, the eldest son was wearing that sackcloth and a face. It was all blacked out, and we thought it was just the refugees who accompanied the team. But we surrounded the caravan and planned to start, and he stood up before the sword was raised. "
Thinking of that scene, He Xing still felt very courageous.
Gu Juefei's spirit.
When others saw their cold bandit, they were so frightened that they all shrank aside, only Gu Juefei stood up after beating people, looking at Luo Tuo who was clearly dressed, but when he spoke, he was neither humble nor arrogant, not afraid at all.
All he asked was, "Are you here to rob?"
At that time, He Xing wanted to scold his mother, so he opened his mouth and replied, "Is this your grandma's still need to ask?"
It can be said that his words are not very beautiful.
In the few years after knowing Gu Juefei's identity and ability, every time he thought about this sentence, he would have the kind of fear that he couldn't help but want to slap himself a few times——
The guts are too fat!
"Unexpectedly, the eldest son didn't get angry, and he didn't have a seizure. Instead, he asked us why there was no famine in the Shaanxi-Gansu area, why did he come out to be a bandit."
"I didn't want to talk to him, but he asked again."
"This time, some of my brothers said that the government's taxation is too heavy, and there are not a few grains of grain left after farming. If the caravan needs to unload a few carts of goods, we will not embarrass them and let them go."
He Xingren was already tall, and when he sat on a horse, he became a little more imposing.
It's just that when he said this, the expression on his face did not match his tall and burly body at all, but instead he had a very guilty conscience.
Lu Jinxi became more and more curious: "Then what?"
"Then the eldest son stood there, didn't speak for a while, and looked at us for a long time. We were about to snatch it directly."
"Fortunately he spoke again."
"Even if I said it, you probably wouldn't have guessed it. He actually said that the caravan's cargo can be unloaded for us by two trucks, but it depends on whether we dare to take it."
When he said this, He Xing paused again.
However, Lu Jinxi frowned, his eyes turned slightly, and he became a little more subtle, and directly said his guess: "You said that the caravan you robbed belonged to Sheng Longchang, and Sheng Longchang at that time should have They are still supplying military supplies for the border war. So you are not actually robbing ordinary caravans, but the semicolons in the rest of Shenglongchang to prepare enough to transport them to the headquarters and then send them to the battlefield goose quarters?"
"you……"
He Xing's eyes widened and he couldn't close his mouth.
"Can you guess that?"
What's so hard to guess?
It's clear after contact.
Lu Jinxi smiled, shook his head, didn't take it seriously, and just continued: "You should have been frightened by him when you heard it, and then he was aware of it, moved with reason, and used the common people of the country. Righteousness and good words persuaded them. In the end, when your brains became hot, you stopped robbing, and you only had food to eat, so you went with the caravan and escorted them to Shenglongchang Headquarters, right or not?"
"Yeah, that's what it said."
It seems that he is another smart person who knows what people are thinking at a glance. No wonder the eldest son attaches so much importance to him.
He Xing laughed: "The eldest son also told us that General Xue..."
As soon as these four words came out, there was a pause.
The expression on his face suddenly became a little stiff, and he turned his head to look at Lu Jinxi with a little caution, as if he felt that his words had mentioned someone who should not have been mentioned, for fear of angering her or making her sad.
But Lu Jinxi didn't have any special reaction at all.
As if guessing why he stopped, she still found it interesting and raised her eyebrows: "What about General Xue?"
He Xing was stunned again.
He couldn't believe his ears, and he couldn't believe his eyes: Isn't it extremely sad that the general's wife, Mrs. Lu, was indulging in the general's sacrifice for the country?
He thought it might be a little bit taboo.
Can……
He Xing looked at her, somewhat stunned, and it took him a long time to come back to his senses and replied: "Eldest son said that General Xue led the soldiers to death at the border, and fought with the Huns, throwing our heads and blood, even if we can't join the army.Don't give a piece of your power, you shouldn't drag your legs back regardless of the importance. The big guys are forced to go up the mountain. The eldest son said so, and he is a military supply. Of course, no one dares to do it again. And the eldest son is the master., don't pursue us, that's why today's congratulatory trip."
