After the system ran, I took off with my family

Chapter 363 A sudden visit

"Lin San, oh no, Miss Lin, we don't mean to blame you, we are just a little shocked for a moment." Hu San and Lian Bao waved their hands hurriedly.

"I'm glad you two don't blame me." Lin Shuyue pursed her lips and smiled, then went straight to the point.

"Captain Hu, when do you plan to leave Yangcheng?"

Hu San heard this, and a look of worry appeared on his face. He sighed and said, "The goods we have received are less than half of what we used to receive. I guess we will have to stay for a while longer."

Lian Bao also added: "There are fewer furs this year. We went to the grassland a few days ago, and the goods we collected were less than half of last year.

I wanted to go to the grassland again in the next two days, but now the city gates are closed and I can't leave. I can only see if the hunters in the surrounding villages have any scattered furs. "

"Why isn't Shopkeeper Fang here?"

Lin Shuyue was a little curious. Logically speaking, matters like purchasing should be handled by Manager Fang.

"Oh, don't mention it." Hu San waved his hand and sighed again.

"When our caravan crossed Broken Turtle Ridge, we engaged in a battle with bandits. Many of our brothers were injured, and Shopkeeper Fang was even accidentally stabbed. He's currently recovering in the inn."

After saying that, he glanced at Lin Shuyue and thought to himself: If he had been willing to swallow his pride and persuade Miss Lin to go on the journey together, the situation would have been much better than it is now.

Lin Shuyue understood everything. So that's why. No wonder Hu San looked so worried every time he met him in Yangcheng.

Hu San wiped his face with his hands, his expression regained its composure, and asked, "Now that we can't leave, what are Miss Lin's plans next?"

He knew the purpose of her trip. Now that she couldn't leave, she couldn't stay in Yangcheng forever. If he could invite her to return with him, her safety would be guaranteed.

Hu San's plan was very good, but Lin Shuyue's next words directly dashed his hopes.

"Yangcheng is great. I plan to stay here for a while. I think it will snow in a month, so I can enjoy the snowy scenery."

Lin Shuyue looked at the bustling crowd on the street with a look of longing on her face.

When Hu San heard this, he knew that his wish would be in vain, but he didn't hold much hope in the first place.

After chatting for a while, Lin Shuyue put down her teacup. She looked at Hu San and said calmly, "Captain Hu, what do you think about the sudden closure of the city gate?"

Hu San's expression became serious. After looking around, his sight was fixed on the face of the beautiful girl opposite him. The girl looked calm, as if it was just a casual question.

After a few breaths, he withdrew his gaze and said in a deep voice, "I'm afraid that Yangcheng will soon be in turmoil."

"Ah."

Lin Shuyue agreed softly, drank the tea in the cup, and said, "Captain Hu, you should leave Yangcheng as soon as possible."

After the city gates were closed, prices in the city rose slightly, especially furs, cattle, sheep, and horses, which became popular commodities.

There is little point in the caravan staying in the city any longer.

After chatting for a while, Lin Shuyue said goodbye to the two of them and took Chen An back to the inn.

The next day, the group of four checked out of the hotel and moved into a small courtyard in Yongqing Lane.

Two days later, three uninvited guests suddenly came to the small courtyard.

Under the jujube tree in the yard, Qinghe carried a tea tray and served tea to the three distinguished guests sitting opposite her young lady, then quietly retreated.

The man sitting opposite Lin Shuyue took the lead in picking up the teacup, took a sip, looked up at her with a smile, and said in a loud voice: "Miss Lin, I apologize for my intrusive visit today."

"General Tang, you are too kind. Your presence here is a great honor to my humble abode. How dare you call me 'presumptuous'?"

Lin Shuyue had a smile on her lips, and her tone was respectful but not flattering.

Although I was a little confused when I woke up early in the morning and found three grown men suddenly standing in the yard, after I knew the identities of the visitors, all the dissatisfaction in my heart disappeared.

Because the person who came was General Tang Chengying, who commanded hundreds of thousands of Zhenbei troops.

The other two were General Xie, a young general under his command, and Captain Li, whom he had met just a few days ago.

Seeing that Lin Shuyue was not at all nervous in front of him and behaved gracefully, General Tang's eyes showed more admiration.

He took the initiative to speak and said: "Miss Lin helped our Zhenbei Army a lot a few days ago. This general thanks Miss Lin on behalf of the soldiers of the Zhenbei Army.

Speaking of which, I've heard Captain Li talk about Miss Lin a long time ago. Miss Lin is young but has extraordinary skills and a chivalrous heart. I've wanted to visit her for a long time, but I've been busy with official duties and haven't had the time.

Lin Shuyue nodded modestly and said, "You are too polite, General. Ah Yue has only been practicing martial arts since childhood and has learned some boxing and kicking skills.

What I did before was just a matter of convenience. Being able to help was just a pleasant surprise. I don't deserve the general's concern."

Xie Yi, who was sitting on the left side of General Tang, heard this and gently tugged at the wristband on his wrist. His voice was lazy and magnetic.

"Miss Lin is too modest. To be able to eliminate nearly a hundred bandits in the time it takes to drink a cup of tea, such skills are among the best in the Great Zhou."

When General Tang heard this, he patted Xie Yi on the shoulder and said with a smile, "Xie Yi is right. Miss A Yue, there is no need to be modest."

Lin Shuyue could only smile politely at the two people's echoing words, "Thank you, General, for your kind words."

"Yes." Xie Yi glanced at her and his voice became serious: "I hope that if there is a chance, I can have a good exchange with Miss Lin."

Lin Shuyue smiled faintly, neither saying yes nor no, but looked at General Tang and asked curiously, "General Tang should have something to say to Ah Yue today."

One never visits a temple for no reason. She didn't believe that the Buddha had come here just because of his reputation.

The Zhenbei Army is currently busy with military affairs, so there must be a reason for this sudden visit.

"Hahaha, Your Majesty is right. Miss A Yue is indeed very talented."

General Tang laughed loudly, but what he said made Lin Shuyue's eyebrows jump.

She looked at General Tang and asked softly, "Your Majesty? What do you mean by that, General?"

"Miss Ayue, don't be nervous. Let me explain this matter slowly." General Tang lowered his voice and comforted Lin Shuyue.

Then, Tang Chengying began to tell the story.

Originally, Tang Chengying had no intention of paying a visit. Although he was grateful to Lin Shuyue and curious about her skills, as the commander-in-chief of the Zhenbei Army, he had more important things to do.

Therefore, after Captain Li returned from suppressing the bandits, he asked him to deliver the reward he had prepared to Lin Shuyue, and the matter was settled with him.

After learning of the Turkic conspiracy, he wrote a secret report and sent it to the capital that night.

However, he also mentioned in the secret report the young heroine who killed nearly a hundred bandits, captured Meng Ping, and helped them uncover the Turkic conspiracy.

Two days ago, he suddenly received a secret letter from the capital.
