Chapter 343: Back to Shanhaiguan

Qu Li looked at the picture and felt that it was just a very simple picture. It was like a map of a palace and didn’t think there was anything wrong with it. When the old man was in Kunlun Mountain for so many years, was this picture his own? But he never heard the old man say that there was such a picture, or that the old man was unwilling to say about this picture, and he was thinking too much.

"Those eating things are coming again." someone shouted in the cave.

Master Chen held the knife in his hand and looked out of the cave, watching the strange man-eating monkeys gathered at the entrance of the cave, with hundreds of them.

"Why don't they come in?"

"What do they really want to be afraid of?"

"Animals are the most honest." Chen Guanzhu looked calm, "There must be something that makes these monsters afraid of."

But there was nothing else in the cave except for a few people. When Master Chen looked at a person, he saw the figure in the corner and his hair was full of hair. There was one more person, and the person who had sneaked in didn't notice it.

"Are you a human or a ghost?" Chen Guanzhu stared at the motionless figure holding a knife in his hand.

At this time, everyone in the cave was looking at the strange figure.

"This thing can smell so that the monkeys can stop coming in." The figure spoke and threw out a sachet. "This thing can't last long. If you want to survive, close the hole as soon as possible."

Qu Li walked in step by step with a torch and looked at the man, middle-aged, in his forties, a little black and thin, with a Guanzhong accent.

"Who are you? Why are you mixed in with us?" Qu Li asked.

"I am a herbalist." The other party said again, "I have been to Kunlun Mountain many times. With me here, you can save you from death."

He was exhausted from escaping his life and no one noticed when this guy entered the team. A sudden appearance of such a person was very nervous. The people in the cave were holding a knife in their hands.

The man pointed at a person next to Chen Guanzhu, "He was bitten by the monkeys on his shoulder. Hurry up and kill him, otherwise he would become one of those monkeys."

Master Chen's breathing was very heavy, "You are the person I want to kill now."

"Three days later, he will beg you to kill him." He looked at Chen Guanzhu and said, "End his pain as soon as possible and don't let a good person become those monsters."

Half a month later, Li Er finally received the military newspaper for the Great Victory of Goguryeo. Looking at the contents of the military newspaper, I didn't write much about the process of pacifying Goguryeo this time. The report was written by Cen Wenben himself and did not tell much about the war. Su Dingfang, Li Tai, Li Ke, Gu Qing, Cheng Chumo, Shangguan Yi and 30,000 troops defeated the 200,000 defenders of Goguryeo in Liaodong City. Li Jie Hou Junji led his troops to conquer Ping'ao. After regaining other parts of Goguryeo, the civil strife in Goguryeo was completely quelled.

With so many people dead, this battle against Goguryeo couldn't recover for a long time.

The news of the victory soon spread throughout Chang'an, and there were more confident smiles on the faces of the people.

After Wu Mei heard the news, she said to Fan Jian at home, "As usual, take out some money and grain to the people in the village."

"Oh." Fan Jian nodded repeatedly.

Di Renjie also said after watching Fan Jian leave, "Master's wife, do you really want to visit Princess Gaoyang in person?"

"Prepare it." Wu Mei said, "I can't hide when I have something to face."

"I understand, students will prepare now." Di Renjie walked out of the house and saw Li Wan waiting for him at the door.

"Are you done with it?" Li Wan looked at Di Renjie, "Let's go fishing."

"There are a lot of things." Di Renjie said hesitantly, "Late later, I will finish the work on hand first."

"I'll help you." Li Wan smiled.

Di Renjie held Li Wan's hand and walked all the way through the village, saying, "Don't be surprised, the teacher and the teacher's wife often do this."

Li Wan didn't care, just blushed, "When did you tell me you will come to propose marriage?"

"It won't last too long." Di Renjie also said.

On the other side, Li Chengqian scolded Changsun Wuji, "Uncle, it's time and time again! Why do you just want to deal with Gu Qing! He is just a guy without power. What threat does he pose to you? Why are you so narrow-minded!"

Changsun Wuji looked at Li Chengqian decadently, "Your Highness, Gu Qing is surrounded by King Jin and King Wei."

"So what!" Li Chengqian roared at Changsun Wuji angrily, "Gu is the prince!Gu is the crown prince!"

"Your Highness the Crown Prince is a little more awake." Changsun Wuji continued, "Your Highness the Crown Prince is in danger if Gu Qing doesn't fall."

"You're talking nonsense!" Li Chengqian waved his sleeves and pointed at Changsun Wuji and said loudly, "He, Gu Qing, can still shake the prince Gu, the prince! Uncle! You care too much about Gu Qing and Changsun clashing back then, and you can't swallow this anger from beginning to end. You want to use Gu's hand to deal with Gu Qing, right?"

Changsun Wuji lowered his head sadly and didn't want to say anything else, nor did he want to explain anything.

"Uncle, you disappointed Gu!" Li Chengqian said and left.

On the other side of Chang'an, Li Yifu and Xu Jingzong sat together.

"The prince scolded Changsun Wuji." Xu Jingzong whispered.

"The prince should call Changsun Wuji "Uncle". Now the prince shouldn't scold his elders like this. I'm afraid that he would do this if he was really disappointed with Changsun Wuji." Li Yifu said, "Changsun Wuji is not far from falling."

"You are wrong." Xu Jingzong also said, "Your Majesty will not deal with Changsun Wuji easily. Changsun Wuji is the Duke of Your Majesty's personal establishment."

"As you said, is the old fox Changsun Wuji protecting himself?" Li Yifu was confused.

Xu Jingzong shook his head, "I can't see through him. Sometimes I see this old fox doing things a little stupid, and sometimes I feel that he has a more powerful backup plan."

Li Yifu nodded.

"How is the cultivation of the Daming Palace?" Xu Jingzong asked again.

"It's early, it's not that fast." Li Yifu sighed, "It's time for the marquis to come back."

Li Ji and his group finally returned to Shanhaiguan for repair. The defenders stationed here helped the army to organize their supplies. Gu Qing saw a familiar back on the top of the city from afar and said to Li Tai, "Fatty, I'll go and rest for a while."

"Go." Li Tai said without caring.

Sun Sheng, who was standing on the top of the city, hurried down when he saw Gu Qing entering the pass. Sun Sheng came to Gu Qing's side and said hurriedly, "Gu Too-er, Changsun Wuji has entered the Censorate."

"What happened in Chang'an?" Gu Qing asked.

The position of the Censorate has no substantive rights. It is regarded as a censor who is a clerk. The one who keeps monitoring the news and reports is to put it bluntly, it is to report on the small news.
