Du Qi had already tidied things up early. According to Du Qi's plan, it is enough to wear light and simple clothes, put on soft gold silk armor in the inner shirt, sleeve arrows in the sleeves, dagger, treasure bag and so on.
But there are two women in the family, one is the mother, Mrs. Zheng, who stuffed the half-carriage with food and clothes with large and small bags;
The items stuffed by the two women together make up a whole carriage.
When Du Qi was about to go out, both of them looked like pear blossoms and rain, which made Du Qi uncomfortable. Under the entrustment of his old lady Zheng, Du Qi finally got rid of the two people, then got into the carriage, and left with Moredo and Liu Jian.
These two people took care of Du Qi's daily life.
The two carriages left, hurried on their way, and soon came to the north gate of Chang'an City.
Outside the north gate, there is a team of people.
Impressively, it was Changsun Shunde and his party.
The eldest Sun Shunde is nearly fifty years old, but he is a burly man, a typical northern man. Even so, the eldest Sun Shunde does not look old, but looks very energetic.
Changsun Shunde came from the Changsun family and was the uncle of Changsun Wugou. During the Sui Dynasty, Changsun Shunde was just a small guard. In order not to participate in the Battle of Goguryeo, Changsun Shunde fled to Taiyuan and became Li Yuan's entourage.
?When Li Yuan raised his army, Changsun Shunde became a general in the army, conquering east and west, and made many military exploits. Finally, he was promoted to General Zuo Xiaowei and named Xue Guogong. The eldest grandson Shunde was unwilling to go to Goguryeo when he was young, but now the eldest grandson Shunde is quite majestic.
Next to Changsun Shunde, there is a group of soldiers.
It belonged to Sun Shunde and Du Qi, the chief guards.
Du Qi stepped forward, cupped his hands and said, "My boy, Du Qi, pay my respects to General Eldest Sun."
Historically, the elder Sun Shunde was on the side of Li Shimin. After all, Li Shimin has always been the main force on the battlefield. Many generals in the army have a good relationship with Li Shimin.
That's exactly the case. When Changsun Shunde saw Du Qi, he nodded and said: "Du Erlang, you are welcome, you are a famous writer in Chang'an. You don't have to be like this in front of this old man."
Du Qi shook his head and said: "This time, there are only chief envoys and deputy envoys, and there are no writers."
The eldest Sun Shunde stroked his beard and smiled.
Du Qi, although he is famous for his talent, he is not arrogant about his talent. Even the elder Sun Shunde praised it quite a lot.
Changsun Shunde said: "Let's go!"
"Please, General Changsun!"
After Du Qi waved his hand and waited for Sun Shunde to board the carriage, he returned to his own carriage and followed the mission.
For Du Qi, it is not difficult to go on a mission.
The team hurried on their way, and after leaving Chang'an, they headed north all the way. After leaving Gyeonggi-do, enter Hadong-do in the north. The final destination of Du Qi and Changsun Shunde's journey is Daizhou in the north of Hedong Road.
After entering Daizhou, pass through Yanmen to go north, exit Yanmen Pass, enter Shuozhou, and then enter the area where the East Turks are located. After the team entered Hedong Road, their speed slowed down slightly.
The weather has also entered July.
Although the weather is still hot in July, it is much cooler at night.
Du Qi, Changsun Shunde and his party are still in Puzhou, which is the southernmost point of Hedong Road. Puzhou is far away from Daizhou, so it is not considered a border, but the territory is quite prosperous.
?Because they were on their way all the time, there was no village to stay overnight in the evening, so at night, the group found a ruined temple to stay overnight. The accompanying soldiers stood guard outside.
Du Qi and Changsun Shunde rested in the ruined temple.
When Du Qi rested, he saw that Liu Jian was already busy. Instead of cooking at night, he met a village on the way. Liu Jian bought two chickens and prepared to cook beggar's chicken at night.
Today's Liu Jian has an excellent standard.
In his carriage, all kinds of spices for cooking are also available. The beggar chicken he made tasted extremely good.
Du Qi felt normal after eating, but his grandson Shunde had never eaten Liu Jian's dishes. After eating Beggar Chicken, the eldest Sun Shunde's face was full of surprise, and he exclaimed: "It's delicious, it's really delicious!"
"It's so delicious!"
The eldest Sun Shunde swallowed quickly while speaking.
Those eyes were full of joy.
This taste is so good that Changsun Shunde tasted very comfortable. When he was full, he burped and stroked his round belly, with a satisfied expression on his face.
Du Qi is also full here.
Liu Jian started to eat after serving Du Qi. After all, he was so busy that he had to satisfy his stomach.
The grandson Shunde looked at Liu Jian and said with emotion: "Du Erlang, the servant beside you is really good at cooking! This cooking skill is rare in the world. I have lived for decades, and this is the first time I have eaten Such delicious food."
Du Qi said: "If General Changsun likes to eat, when you return to Chang'an, you can arrange for the cook from the house to come, and I will ask Liu Jian to teach him cooking skills. Although it is not as good as Liu Jian's, it is still similar."
"So, thank you very much."
A bright smile appeared on the face of Changsun Shunde.
Along the way, he can eat Liu Jian's meals, which is pretty good when he thinks about it. At this moment, outside the ruined temple, there was a sudden shout of killing.
A soldier quickly entered and reported: "General Changsun, something is wrong. Suddenly a group of people came to kill outside this ruined temple. There were nearly sixty people on the other side, all dressed in black. Extremely fierce. There are only about 30 soldiers outside of us, and it is very likely that they will not be able to stop the opponent's attack."
You know, this has just entered Puzhou on Hedong Road, and there is still a considerable distance from Yanmen, Daizhou, the northernmost city on Hedong Road. Now that he is being assassinated, he doesn't know what will happen next.
Changsun Shunde stood up and said, "Go, follow me out to have a look."
Immediately, he looked at Du Qi and said, "Erlang, you stay in this ruined temple and don't leave."
Du Qi shook his head and said: "General Changsun, you just need to command, don't worry about me. I will take care of my safety. Besides Liu Jian, there is Mo Ledu beside me. Mo Le Duo is very skilled in martial arts. There will be problems."
Mo Ledo is tall and strong, even if he sits in the ruined temple, he is like a hill.
With him here, Du Qi is safe and sound.
Changsun Shunde stopped talking and went straight to the gate of the ruined temple. Du Qi followed behind, standing behind Changsun Shunde to watch the situation. In the dark night, more than sixty black-clothed warriors outside the ruined temple, one by one holding a sword, sprinted quickly.
At the gate of the ruined temple, the soldiers brought by Changsun Shunde defended with all their strength. They did not take the initiative to attack, but chose to use defense as an offense to resist the attack of these more than 60 people.
Although Du Qi had never participated in the fight, he could understand the situation in front of him.
More than 60 people cooperated very tacitly.
The killing was even more ferocious. Even though the soldiers brought by Changsun Shunde were not weak in combat effectiveness, under the ferocious charge, the people brought by Changsun Shunde gradually fell behind.
A group of soldiers gradually became unable to resist.
Du Qi frowned suddenly, and said: "General Changsun, we are besieged by this group of men in black, I'm afraid it will be dangerous."
Changsun Shunde's face was also gloomy, and at some point, he had already held a sword in his hand. But the eldest Sun Shunde did not come out for the time being, and shouted: "I am Sun Shunde, the Great General Zuo Xiaowei of the Great Tang Dynasty, who are you waiting for, who dare to attack the officials of the Great Tang Dynasty. Could it be that you are going to rebel?"
"The dog official of the Tang Dynasty, everyone gets it and punishes him, kill him!"
A cry came from among the men in black.
The leading man in black has already issued an order to continue the fight. As time passed, there were less than 20 soldiers outside the ruined temple, but there were still more than 50 men in black who surrounded and killed them. (Remember the site URL: www.hlnovel.com
