Gou Becomes a Boss in the Fairy World
Chapter 995 On the road
The carriages and horses sparkled, the flags were fluttering, and the knights galloped all the way westward.
Wang Chen looked back at the road he had just walked and saw the imperial capital in the distance that was about to disappear from sight.
I don't know why, maybe he was influenced by Sun Zhengheng, and he also had a bad feeling!
"Master Wang..."
At this time, a knight quickly approached Wang Chen and whispered: "Your Highness, please come over."
This knight's voice is clear and melodious, and with his fair skin and pretty face, his gender is clear at a glance.
There were fifty female knights among the three thousand feather forest guards escorting the marriage team, who were responsible for following the carriage that Princess Qingyun was riding.
Wang Chen nodded: "I understand."
He picked up the reins and controlled the yellow gelding to approach the luxurious carriage pulled by eight horses.
This carriage is a royal regulation. Its carriage is very wide, just like a mobile house. It has all kinds of facilities and can easily accommodate a dozen passengers.
As for the passengers, they were naturally Princess Qingyun and her maid.
"Master!"
As soon as Wang Chen came over, he saw Princess Qingyun sticking her head out of the open window: "Can you come up? I have many questions to ask you."
The guards nearby were all watching, pretending not to see or hear.
Wang Chen couldn't laugh or cry: "Your Highness, this is not very convenient."
Although he now holds the title of Crown Prince Taibao and is Princess Qingyun’s de facto master, getting into the latter’s carriage in full view of the public is really not an ethical behavior!
Princess Qingyun snorted, retracted her head and closed the window tightly.
Obviously telling Wang Chen "I'm angry".
Wang Chen shook his head and didn't take it to heart.
If he were Princess Qingyun, traveling thousands of miles to a strange country to marry a complete stranger, she would not be in a good mood.
Wang Chen regained the distance between him and the carriage.
But not long after, the female knight came closer again and presented a food box.
Wang Chen understood at a glance that this was the filial piety of his cheap apprentice.
There was a hint of warmth in his heart.
The long procession stretched out for several miles on the official road, and when the eastbound business travelers saw it, they all moved to the side of the road in fear, and everyone was respectful.
For safety reasons, the wedding procession did not move very fast, and local dignitaries from the prefectures and counties they passed along the way came to greet and entertain them, with a wide range of tributes.
At this pace, Wang Chen probably won't even think about Dayan's capital for half a year!
And along the way, Princess Qingyun was also honest.
Although she did not invite Wang Chen to the carriage to teach her, she still insisted on practicing Taoism and passed notes to Wang Chen for questioning when she encountered problems.
Very diligent.
For such a disciple, Wang Chen naturally did not hesitate to teach him, which added a touch of fun to this boring and long journey.
A month later, the marriage team arrived at the Xihai Prairie.
Xihai Prairie is located in Xihai County. This county is the largest among the many counties in Daliang and has a very vast area.
However, the population of Xihai County is not very large, and it is mainly concentrated in a few cities.
This means that the team's next journey will be much more difficult, as it will be impossible to stay in the city frequently and receive respect and supplies from the local government.
In addition, there are still great dangers in the Xihai Prairie.
"Mainly three groups of horse thieves..."
Sun Zhengheng said to Wang Chen: "Especially the White Wolf Bandits, they are very strong. The three leaders are all fifth-level martial arts masters!"
The White Wolf Bandits have been rampant in the Xihai Prairie for decades. At the beginning, they were just a group of pony thieves, but later their strength continued to expand and they have become a serious problem in Xihai County.
Especially in recent years, many local herdsmen have joined the White Wolf Bandits, causing the latter's power to expand again and once posing a great threat to the county.
It is not that Xihai County has never sent troops to encircle and suppress the enemy, but apart from losing soldiers and generals, wasting money and food, nothing was gained.
The most troublesome thing is that there are dozens of horse thieves, large and small, in the prairie. Most of them are in contact with each other. They will warn each other when they encounter danger, and they may even form alliances!
Wang Chen understood: "Are you worried that these horse thieves will be harmful to us?"
Sun Zhengheng said so much, it is definitely not because he talks too much.
"Um."
Sun Zhengheng smiled bitterly and pointed at the dozens of cargo carriages in the team: "These things are enough to attract thieves!"
These carriages carried all Princess Qingyun's dowry, including gold, silver, jewelry, silk and satin, worth at least several million taels, which was a huge fortune.
It is normal to attract the covetousness of horse thieves.
Wang Chen smiled and said: "Come on, come on. Your three thousand Yu Lin are not vegetarians, are they?"
The Xueyi Guards, Jinwu Guards and Yulin Guards are collectively known as the Three Emperor's Guards. They are the guards directly subordinate to the Emperor of Daliang. The latter are all elite men selected from various legions.
And Sanqian Yulin, who was responsible for escorting the marriage team, was the best among the best.
Wang Chen didn't believe that the mere White Wolf Bandits could compete with this team, even if they added a group of horse thieves.
Horse thieves and bandits can deal with merchant escorts just fine, but when they encounter a real army, their shortcomings will be exposed!
"I once heard a rumor..."
Sun Zhengheng lowered his voice and said: "The White Wolf Thief is related to Dayan."
Um?
Wang Chen was slightly startled - this Dayan was Daliang's ally!
But when he thought about it in a blink of an eye, he felt that he was naive. There is no real friendship between countries in this country. It is only due to interests.
Daqi in the north wants to annex Daliang, but Dayan doesn't have any ideas?
Using horse thieves and bandits to bury nails in Daliang is obviously a very clever method.
If the White Wolf Thieves are really related to Dayan, then their strength needs to be re-evaluated and they cannot be careless.
"Wang Taibao."
Sun Zhengheng said sincerely: "Don't be afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of the worst. If you are really in danger, I hope you can take His Highness to leave first and leave us alone!"
"good."
Wang Chen nodded: "I promise you."
Sun Zhengheng showed a pleased smile: "Thank you very much!"
Woo~
The sound of a powerful horn came from the front, and the flags leading the way were waved, and the speed of the team suddenly slowed down.
It's getting dark and it's time to set up camp.
This place is out of the way and has no shops. Not even a business traveler has met a single person, so we can only camp tonight.
When night falls, darkness begins to cover the land, and piles of bonfires are set up and lit in the camp.
A group of Yulin guards gathered around the bonfire, chatting and laughing while enjoying dinner, and the atmosphere was quite lively.
Ouch~
Suddenly, a long wolf howl came from afar and reached everyone's ears!
Many Habayashi guards suddenly changed their expressions! ——
The second update is sent.
