On her wedding night, she went into exile with her pharmacy arsenal

Chapter 1569: First Arrival at Dachao Village

Jiang Tangli and Qi Dongqiang followed Yan Ruyu to the eldest lady's courtyard.

The dinner room suddenly became lively.

Jiang Tangli and Qi Dongqiang shared their interesting experiences of appreciating flowers in the pear orchard outside the city.

"Sister, the pear blossoms are so beautiful. I picked some flowers and brought them back to make some wine."

Qi Dongqiang said with a smile: "She kept talking about this when we were picking flowers, and even tried to tempt me to join her. I didn't care, because if the wine was brewed, I had to have two jars."

Jiang Tangli said proudly: "Two jars per person."

The eldest lady was also very happy, and discussed with Yan Ruyu: "Ruyu, why don't we go to the suburbs for a walk? It doesn't have to be too far, just take a stroll."

She has hardly gone out since she came to Youcheng.

Yan Ruyu readily agreed: "Okay, no problem. I'll ask around these two days to see where the scenery is good. Call Princess Ming Zhao and we'll go together."

After dinner, Yan Ruyu chatted with Jiang Tangli and the others for a while before returning to the yard.

The light was on in the room, but no one was there.

In the past, when Yan Ruyu went on missions, she was mostly alone and never felt anything. But now that Huo Changhe is not around, she feels a little lonely.

She laughed at herself, thinking that humans are indeed fickle animals.

Prepare some tea bags and ingredients and give them to Huo Changxu early tomorrow morning.

Before going to bed, I will ask the abbot again to see whether Huo Changhe has arrived safely and whether he can be confirmed to be in place.

Come to think of it, it’s quite busy.

Try to keep yourself busy to dilute your longing.

……

At this time, near Dachao Village.

Huo Changhe slept in a tent in the woods.

This tent was given to him by Yan Ruyu before he left. Not only him, but every two of his subordinates also had one.

It’s a small bag, very light, and no heavier than a bag when carried on the back, but when unfolded it is large enough for two people to sleep.

There are also instant biscuits, small bottled water, anti-insect powder, etc., each person has a portion.

Yan Ruyu said that although there might not be many insects at this time, one should always be prepared for the worst. The situation in Dachao Village was unclear, and the tribe had moved here, so it was better to be cautious.

Huo Changhe was lying in the tent, looking at the roof. His tent was different from others. There was a transparent part on the top through which he could see the night sky.

The moon is bright and the stars are dense tonight, it is really beautiful.

He felt warm in his heart, and when he thought of Yan Ruyu, the corners of his mouth unconsciously curled up.

Sometimes he would think about what Taoist Xuanqing said, but he was just curious and didn't mind.

Life is short, and he just wants to be with Yan Ruyu for these few decades and live happily. He doesn't want to think about anything else.

Even if she is not a human, she is a fairy. Even if she is a demon, she is a demon that does good for him.

Just as I was daydreaming, I heard low voices outside.

Bee Whistle's voice was small, but he couldn't hide his excitement and boasting: "This, this is also a gift from the princess. Look, it's so solid."

This should refer to rope climbing.

"And this one, look, it's small and easy to use."

What is this talking about? Huo Changhe thought about it and thought it should be a pair of small scissors.

While still showing off, he suddenly cried out "Ouch" as if he was hit by something.

Then he heard Jin Ting say in a cold voice: "Noisy."

All of a sudden there was silence.

Huo Changhe couldn't help but laugh silently.

After lying alone for a while, it was almost midnight, and Huo Changhe thought of Taoist Xuanqing's words again. Dachao Village, Li Baru, he didn't know what this person was doing now.

He thought that after returning, he should discuss with Governor Cao and City Envoy Li as soon as possible to conduct a secret check of the villages around Youcheng, and focus on observing villages like Dachao Village.

Border towns do require more caution than other places.

Just as I was thinking about it, a white shadow suddenly passed over the top of the tent.

His eyes flashed and he sat up immediately.

At the same time, footsteps approached his tent softly.

Jin Ting said outside: "Pigeon."

Huo Changhe walked out of the tent and saw Jin Ting holding a white carrier pigeon, the one he had just seen flying over the roof.

"Not ordinary." said Jin Ying.

Feng Shao also came over quietly: "Why is it special? What's the difference, Brother Yingying, please introduce it to me."

"claw."

Feng Shao was confused. Looking at the pigeon's claws, they were a light red color.

"This... isn't unusual, is it? Pigeons of this color are quite common."

"It's not the color," Huo Changhe said, "it's the shape of the toenails. This is a different breed. Not everyone can afford a pigeon. Good homing pigeons are hard to come by. They need to be raised and trained. The ones with this kind of claws are smarter and more alert."

Feng Shao suddenly realized: "The fact that such a carrier pigeon can fly out of this village is a problem in itself."

Huo Changhe nodded: "Not bad."

I took the letter box off the pigeon's leg, unfolded it and took a closer look. There was a simple line of words on the letter paper: Dad is sick, come back soon.

Huo Changhe glanced at Jin Ting, and Jin Ting handed him a small bottle of medicine.

The potion was poured into a small bowl, and a small cowhide letter tube was thrown into the potion. The letter tube was gradually softened, unfolded, and turned into a piece of letter paper.

Huo Changhe looked carefully with a flashlight, but there was nothing.

No? Huo Changhe thought for a moment, could this letter be some kind of code? So, there is no need to write on the mailbox.

This possibility is not impossible.

Now the mailbox is the real letter. This is no secret. Many spies use it, and many people have begun to use code words for this purpose.

Huo Changhe remembered that Yan Ruyu once said that when the abbot was traveling, he saw some organizations that shared a book called the "code book". They used a special number to represent a certain word in the book. When they received a secret letter, they could only understand it with the help of the book.

In other words, even if the letter is intercepted by someone, there is no need to worry, because without the code book, no one can understand what is written.

He thought it was fresh and interesting at the time, and after reading the letter this time, he felt that it was necessary to make a code book like this.

Huo Changhe withdrew his thoughts, destroyed the letter and the mailbox, and handed the pigeon to Jin Ding.

"Don't crush it, keep it, it might be useful."

Jin Qing nodded.

Huo Changhe ordered Feng Shao: "Tell everyone to be careful and take turns to rest. As soon as the sun rises tomorrow, you should find a way to go into the village and investigate the situation."

"Yes!"

Feng Shao agreed excitedly, thinking about how and with what identity he would use to enter the village tomorrow, and he thought of several versions in a row.

The next morning.

A villager in the village was shocked to find a person covered in blood and fainted on the side of the road.

"Oh my god!" The villagers rushed forward and carefully sniffed the person's breath, "Hey, he's not dead, is he?"

"It's okay, he's still breathing," the villager turned around and shouted, "Help, help, help quickly."

When the residents around heard it, they opened their doors and came out.

"Who is this?"

"I don't know. His clothes look shabby, like he's a refugee."

"Don't worry about who he is. He's a poor man anyway. Let's carry him home first," said an old man.

Everyone helped and carried the person away.

The secret guard who was watching from the dark whispered, "Your Highness, go in."
