From a son-in-law to a favorite of the empress

Chapter 711

Zhou Yuan called everyone together.

Cai Ni, Ye Qingying, Guan Caixi, Xiaoying, Xiong Kuohai, Wang Ang, and Zhou Yuan, the leader, formed a team of seven.

They sat around a bonfire to make the final plan.

Zhou Yuan said, "Old Xiong, how are the Jinyiwei preparing?"

Xiong Kuohai was always serious when talking about business. He said in a deep voice, "After the contact in the past few days, the Jinyiwei in Guizhou are almost all here. They are all in the county town across the river, with a total of more than 800 people."

"They will ambush at the location designated by the adults to block the pursuers and open up a way out for us."

Zhou Yuan nodded, looked at Cai Ni, and said, "Do you understand the process of the Mountain Flower Festival? Do you know what to do tomorrow?"

Cai Ni smiled and said, "I know everything, young master. In the morning, we will step on the flower field, play the reed pipe and dance the flower dance."

"In the afternoon, we will climb the flower poles, ride horses and shoot arrows, and sing mountain songs."

"There are various programs, such as playing other instruments, showing embroidery works, and then men and women who like each other will give each other handkerchiefs, etc."

"I will participate in the flower dance in the morning, horseback archery in the afternoon, and finally folk songs."

"After a day, I will definitely make them like it."

Zhou Yuan nodded and said, "Qingying, you will be responsible for protecting Cai Ni tomorrow to prevent anyone from making trouble while she is performing."

Ye Qingying said, "No problem."

Zhou Yuan continued, "Old Wang, you will cooperate with Murong and Li Song to light a fire on the river bank at noon tomorrow, roast all the sweet potatoes, and distribute them to everyone to eat, one per person."

"There must be a lot of People will ask what this is and where it comes from. You can just say it is sweet potato, given by the Jin Dynasty. There is no need to hide it. "

Wang Ang said: "Okay, I will complete the task."

Zhou Yuan looked at Xiong Kuohai and said: "Our identity may be exposed. The chieftain has gathered a lot of officers and soldiers on the other side. After the Shanhua Festival, they may want to arrest us. You should always pay attention to their movements. Once there is a problem, we must closely connect with the Miao village to prevent them from killing us on a large scale. "

Xiong Kuohai's face changed and frowned, "Isn't this too risky? I mean, the other party seems to be planning to fight to the death."

Zhou Yuan said: "They now occupy Guizhou, but Sichuan They were very nervous because they couldn't take it down. At this time, they would not choose to break up with Shuixi Baizhai, after all, they needed the support of Miao soldiers. "

"As long as the people in the village come out to protect us, they won't do it."

Here, he pinched Xiaoying's face and said, "You have to coordinate the overall situation with me tomorrow. The main thing is not to let the bug players cause damage, understand?"

Xiaoying smiled and nodded confidently, "No! Xiaoying is here! Those bug players are not my opponents!"

Zhou Yuan was really afraid of playing with Gu insects. After all, he didn't know anything about this thing and didn't know how to deal with it. Fortunately, there was Xiaoying, an expert.

Guan Caixi couldn't help but said, "What about me? I also want a mission."

Zhou Yuan thought for a while, then said, "There is indeed a mission for you, it's very important, you are responsible for spreading the news."

"What news?"

"There is an official in the Tusi Mansion who has taken a fancy to Cai Ni and is planning to snatch Cai Ni to be his concubine."

Zhou Yuan smiled and said, "You have to spread this news quietly, then someone will stand up and protect their Yang Asha."

Guan Caixi's eyes lit up, and he immediately said, "Okay, okay, I can do this, I can do it."

Zhou Yuan looked at everyone and said in a deep voice, "Remember, our escape The route is to go up the mountain, cross the pass, and go west, where the Jinyiwei boat is parked. "

"When the situation is very urgent, I will give the order to evacuate at any time. When the order is issued, you must escape immediately."

"Caixi, you are the only one among us who has no martial arts. When you spread the news, you must always pay attention to my position and stay close to me when there is danger."

Guan Caixi said: "Understood!"

Zhou Yuan took a deep breath and smiled: "Tomorrow, we will definitely succeed."

...

March 20, early in the morning, when the ray of light peeked out from the east sky, the whole world seemed to be reviving.

The Xiangshui River was flowing, and the mudflats on the shore were so vast that the green grass and the remnants of the bonfire echoed together, which did not destroy the beauty of it, but instead set off each other.

Countless flower poles stood here, and countless flowers were spread on the ground.

The Mountain Flower Festival has begun.

Everyone wore the best clothes and the most beautiful skirts, and gathered together in groups of major villages.

Dozens of men blew the reed pipes, and on the other side more than a dozen drums were beating, and there were also sounds of various instruments such as flutes and flutes.

The elders of each village, led by Mu Rong, officially appeared on the stage. They headed towards the field.Walking in the middle, dancing majestically, the field began to be stepped on, announcing that the festival entered the official stage.

The ceremony was not complicated, clean and simple, so that people's expectations would not have to wait too long.

Under the sound of various musical instruments, the field dance ended, countless people cheered, and the girls from various villages finally ran out.

They held hands, laughed, and began to dance around the major flower fields.

Countless brothers squeezed forward, watching this lively scene, watching the sisters, and cheered like a tsunami.

And Cai Ni finally moved.

She was wearing a blue ribbon skirt and the most complicated and stunning silver jewelry. When she walked out of the field, she was watched by everyone.

"Oh my God, who is that sister! So beautiful!"

"You don't even know Cai Ni's sister?"

"She is Cai Ni's sister? She is just like a fairy! So beautiful."

Under the gaze of countless brothers, Cai Ni came to the field with light steps and danced.

Her skills were so good that every movement was extremely graceful and every expression was fascinating.

Not to mention the elder brothers of the Miao village, even Zhou Yuan couldn't help but stare.

Cai Ni danced very seriously. In this respect, she was invincible when she was serious.

The graceful dance, confident expression, charming eyes, surrounded the flowers, and the flowers also surrounded her.

Almost instantly, she became the focus of the entire flower field.

Countless people began to gather there, and countless elder brothers cheered for her and roared for her.

The scene reached a climax directly.

On the other side, a young man looked at the figure in the field stupidly, and seemed to be stupid for a while.

"Shuizhou, you want to be a hero? That requires courage."

Mu Rong's voice came from behind him. Shuizhou turned his head and looked over, and couldn't help but lower his head again.

Mu Rong said in a deep voice: "We have suffered too much in the Miao village, so Cai Ni A Mei is here. She is our real Yang A Sha."

Shui Zhou's face twisted, and he gritted his teeth and said: "Grandpa! It's not that I don't believe you, but... but... the matter is not clear yet..."

Mu Rong said: "Still don't understand? No, I think you lack courage."

"You dare not face the strong soldiers of the Tusi, you are afraid of death, you don't have the responsibility of a hero."

Watching Mu Rong stride away, Shui Zhou covered his face and trembled all over.

Because he knew that Grandpa Mu Rong was right, he just didn't have the courage.

Standing up against the Tusi, he would be beheaded and die.

He is still young, he doesn't want to die.

"Brother, are you feeling unwell?"

A pleasant voice suddenly came, Shui Zhou looked back and saw a beautiful A Mei looking at him worriedly.

His heart warmed up instantly, and he whispered: "I, I'm fine..."

Guan Caixi smiled and said: "Is Sister Cai Ni pretty?"

"Sister Cai Ni..."

Shui Zhou looked back at the fairies dancing among the flowers in the field, and murmured: "Sister Cai Ni is the most beautiful sister in the world."

Guan Caixi whispered: "What a pity, she is going to be captured."

"What?"

Shui Zhou's face changed.

Guan Caixi said: "The Tusi master also saw her beauty and planned to snatch her away and take her as a concubine."

Shui Zhou was shocked and glared: "Tusi master? Isn't he an old man in his fifties!"

Guan Caixi said: "So he wants a young girl like Cai Ni A Mei to sleep with him. Who doesn't want to be served by such a girl?"

"The officers and soldiers on the other side of the river have arrived. No matter what, Cai Ni A Mei can't escape the fate of being a slave."

Shui Zhou felt that his heart was grasped by a big hand, making him almost unable to breathe.

Cai Ni A Mei... wants to be a slave?

His face was distorted and covered with sweat.

There was an inexplicable flame of anger burning in his heart.

Tusi master? He collected our taxes, sucked our blood, killed our people, and wanted to snatch Cai Ni A Mei?

Is he... still a human being!

No! He doesn't treat us as human beings!

No, that's not right, that girl just lied to me!

Shuizhou ran towards the river like crazy, and he saw the other side.

Countless soldiers were standing there, and countless boats were ready, as if they were planning to cross the river.

Shuizhou's scalp suddenly went numb, and his face turned pale with fear.

But the anger in his heart became more and more intense, as if it was going to burn his soul, his body, and everything he believed in.

He couldn't help but burst into tears, and gritted his teeth and said, "Why! Why does he do this to us!"
