Chapter 165 hearsay
After escaping from the barracks, Feng Qingyao was afraid that Wu Changqing would send chasing troops, so she didn't dare to stay for a moment, and took a small road all the way to the north.

At dawn, I arrived in a remote town.

After running around all night, she was already hungry, and when she saw a shop selling food by the side of the road, she reined in her horse and stopped.

It is said to be a shop, but a pergola was built with straw mats, and a few tables and chairs were simply placed under the pergola.But since there is only one shop nearby, the business is still good, and there is only one vacant seat left in the shed.

Feng Qingyao got off her horse and walked over.

Seeing a guest arriving, a middle-aged woman with a good figure greeted her, "My lord, what would you like to eat?"

Feng Qingyao didn't talk nonsense, she took out a piece of broken silver from her bosom and threw it to her, and said straight to the point: "I'm in a hurry, so come quickly."

The woman understood, took the silver taels with joy on her face, and shouted loudly to the back of the awning: "Cook a bowl of noodles." After shouting, she politely pointed to the empty seat and said, "My lord, please sit first. Bring it to you."

"Okay." Feng Qingyao stepped forward and sat down.

There were three men sitting at the table behind them. Judging from their clothes, they looked like businessmen who came to the Central Plains from other places.But with the fierce aura on his body, anyone with a discerning eye could tell it was Lian Jiazi.

He took a sip of tea and didn't care what the purpose of these people was.

Soon, her face came.

"My lord, take it easy, call me again if you need anything." The woman smiled elatedly, she put her face in front of her, and then went back to help.

"Hello." The man dressed as a businessman stopped her, and said dissatisfied: "Why is the person who came late, the food has already been served, but he just sits here and waits for a long time without even a bowl of water?"

"Brother, please put out the fire first." The woman explained with a smile on her face: "This young man wants a bowl of noodles. It's simple. The cakes you want are freshly baked, so naturally they are slower than his. Just wait a little longer, I'll go pour a glass of water for the others first."

Hearing what she said, the man lost his temper and sat back on his seat.

Feng Qingyao raised her eyebrows and continued to eat the noodles in the bowl.

The few people behind were quiet for a while, and then chatted as if nothing happened.

"Have you heard the news? Recently, the capital of Southern Chu has been raging like a storm. It's very lively! A son of a first-rank official was arrested and sent to the sky prison. I heard that his father didn't even guard the border, so he went back to the capital directly. "

"That was all a few months ago!" Another person corrected: "I heard that the Dali Temple Secretary in Nanchu, who got witnesses from somewhere, insisted on letting the son of the great general buy an official and sell him. He was charged as an official and exiled to the frontier."

Feng Qingyao was startled, Ling Wucheng was exiled?
In other words, the letter she handed over to Hua'er, Hua'er has successfully delivered it to Gu Changci.But who is the witness they are talking about?

Ling Wu deserved what she deserved for her crime, and she had nothing to regret and sympathize with. What she was most worried about was that Ling Weiyuan would jump over the wall in a hurry.If he bites his father back and drags his father to put Ling Wucheng on his back, it will be troublesome.

The movement of eating involuntarily quickened.

At another dinner table, a few people dressed in Jianghu chatted about the war in the southern border.The elegant man with a folding fan in his hand said: "The big Chu and the big Han are separated by a river, and the battle is endless, and I don't know when it will end."

The people around him laughed twice and said, "In my opinion, it's difficult."

“How come you see?”

"You haven't seen the battle formation between the two armies. The Chu army has been trapped in the Han army's Zongyan formation for more than two months. So far, no one has been able to break this formation. If this continues, the southern border may be in danger."

"I heard that the commander of the Chu army rewarded geniuses with a lot of money, but they can't find anyone who can break the formation?"

Everyone shook their heads.

After Feng Qingyao finished eating the noodles, she put the chopsticks on the bowl and strode away.
