"Xin'er is 20 years old now! It's time to find a good family!" Mrs. Zhao said to Prince Zhao.

Duke Zhao nodded and said, "It's a pity! If Shuang'er is not our adopted son, Xin'er can entrust him!"

……

Gao Shuang bet on darts this time. On the one hand, some of the Jingtian Dynasty’s production tools in the paper printing workshop, silk workshop, porcelain workshop, and bronze workshop occupied a full 1000 dart carts.

The latter 9 taels of gold were locked in exquisite iron boxes and distributed among 300 escort carts.

For this escort, Gao Shuang mobilized all the brothers of the Fuwei Escort Bureau, and also activated the new brothers of Ji Shitang, a total of 6000 people in the escort team.

Among them, the skilled craftsmen from paper-making and printing workshops, silk workshops, porcelain workshops, and bronze workshops also brought enough. There are about 1000 people, all of whom are hired by Gao Shuang with high salaries. Lu Guo.

Yi Qingchen led [-] brothers from Fuwei Escort Bureau to open the way in front, while Wang Gang and Du Hu each led [-] brothers to guard the bodyguards in the middle and rear.The brothers among them are all transporting escort carts.

Gao Shuang rode the prince on the black horse to escort the escort car holding 9 taels of gold. Gao Shuang knew that the 9 taels of gold were not his own, but the people of Lu State.

Walking through the territory of the Jingtian Dynasty, the itinerary was very smooth.

On the one hand, the reputation of the Fuwei Escort Bureau has been greatly shaken, and many grassroots bandits have no strength to rob the darts. On the other hand, Gao Shuang's imperial gold medal is very useful when passing through various counties, such as Tangdi, Yimeng and other counties.

When entering the city gate, Gao Shuang flashed the new gold medal bestowed by the emperor of the Jingtian Dynasty, and the soldiers guarding the city immediately let them go without saying a word. realm.

Arriving in Luoyang County, the princess of Luoyang fought against Gao Shuang last time, and knew Gao Shuang's strength. At the same time, he saw Gao Shuang had a new imperial gold medal in his hand, and greeted Gao Shuang's escort car more respectfully.

After passing through the three counties of Tangdi, Yimeng, and Luoyang, he stepped into the territory of a foreign country.

This is the place where the Three Kingdoms meet, where Lu State, Rong State, and Sui State meet.

Rongguo is another powerful small country besides Suiguo around Luguo.

Rongguo used to live in peace and contentment, due to the self-sufficient natural economy implemented by the previous generation of rulers.

But recently the ruler of Rongguo passed away, and the new ruler Xia Houwei, who has always been competitive, has just taken office.

Because his land is very narrow and long, the land is barren, and no crops grow, the whole territory lives a nomadic life, good at bow and arrow, and his cavalry is sturdy.

In order to survive, he decided to give up the previous emperor's idea of ​​living by planting a few acres of thin land, and decided to sweep everything with his sword and conquer the surrounding small countries. Sui was defeated by Lu Guo and became a neutral country of Lu Guo.

But Rongguo felt that this was an opportunity, since Suiguo was incapable of fighting for hegemony, why not be the hegemon himself!
When Gao Shuang, Yi Qingchen, Wang Gang, Du Hu and others escorted the bodyguard into Rongguo territory, Xia Houwei had already prepared an ambush.

When the bodyguard team passed a narrow path with cliffs on both sides, Xia Houwei held up the command flag and shouted at the soldiers on the cliff: "Kill! Kill! Kill!"

Immediately, the Rongguo army scattered on the long and narrow cliffs shot at Fuwei Escort Bureau and other brothers beside the escort cart.
