"Yao Ying?"

"Yes, Yao Ying." Ouyang Sheng said, "He was the one who escorted you when you returned to the capital from southern Xinjiang. Do you still remember?"

"Remember." Ye Yuxiao nodded, "At that time, I gave him a banknote that was folded into a paper airplane. Later, you learned this skill and used it to save me from Prince Heng's Mansion."

"Just remember, we are familiar with each other and it will be convenient." Ouyang Sheng said, "I will ask him to wait for you at the North City Gate tomorrow."

"That's not necessary, right? Grandfather has already arranged for us to have accompanying family members." Ye Yuxiao knew he meant well, but she really felt it was unnecessary.

"Without Yao Ying, how can you send letters to me thousands of miles away?" Ouyang Sheng said, "If you don't send letters to me thousands of miles away, wouldn't you miss me?"

It turned out to be mixed with selfish motives. Ye Yuxiao patted him: "Okay, take Yao Ying with you and send the message thousands of miles away."

Ouyang Sheng grabbed her hand and said, "Are you going to get up before dawn tomorrow? I will send you back now. You should rest early to avoid being exhausted tomorrow."

Business was important, and Gu Heng was still waiting for her to rescue him. Ye Yuxiao nodded, let him hold hands, boarded the carriage, and went back to Mrs. Ning Hui's house.

After sending Ye Yuxiao away, Ouyang Sheng did not stay in the hermitage. He immediately returned to the Yingchuan Hou Mansion and called Yao Ying to the small study.

"What are your orders, Lord Marquis?" Yao Ying asked proactively.

Ouyang Sheng personally took out a pile of human skin masks from the box, threw them on the desk, and asked him, "Do you still have your voice-changing pills?"

Yao Ying immediately understood his intention: "Are you going to exchange identities with your subordinates again?"

"Raise an army for a thousand days, use it for a while." Ouyang Sheng walked up to him and patted his shoulder, "You are my shadow, but you have never played my role in public. Don't you feel regretful?"

"No regrets." Yao Ying said immediately.

"Have you learned how to reject my words?" Ouyang Sheng laughed, "It's a pity that you can't do it even if you don't want to. Who told you not to leave in the first place."

They made an appointment that day. After settling the matter in Prince Qi's palace, Yao Ying would leave Xichao and live his own life. But after Ouyang Sheng went through many ups and downs, Yao Ying took the initiative to stay with him, and this stay has lasted until now. The relationship between the two has long gone beyond master and servant, and is no different than friends.

Yao Ying was helpless: "Master Marquis, you have nothing to worry about now. If you want to accompany Mrs. Ning Hui to Liangtong County, you can go as the Marquis of Yingchuan. Why do you have to pretend to be a subordinate?"

Ouyang Sheng explained to him: "General Gu is in Liangtong County. The emperor is taboo about me getting too close to him. How can I go there using my original identity?"

"Are you worried that going as the Marquis of Yingchuan will draw too much attention to you and make it difficult for you to get close to Mrs. Ning Hui?" Yao Ying exposed him mercilessly.

Ouyang Sheng laughed loudly, without any intention of denying it.

"My subordinate now has a new goal. When you marry Mrs. Ning Hui back home and give birth to a son, I will leave Xichao and go to the Western Regions." Yao Ying shook his head and lifted the human skin mask from his face. Coming down, a face exactly like Ouyang Sheng was revealed.

"Don't worry, I will speed up and never delay your marriage and childbirth." Ouyang Sheng solemnly promised in a joking tone, put on a human skin mask, and transformed into Yao Ying's previous appearance.

Later, the two took voice-changing pills at the same time and changed their clothes. Ouyang Sheng became Yao Ying, and Yao Ying became Ouyang Sheng.

To be on the safe side, they even exchanged bedrooms, and Ouyang Sheng went to the penthouse where Yao Ying was on duty to rest for the night.

The next day, when the sky was still dark, Ouyang Sheng put on his bodyguards and went to the North City Gate to wait for Ye Yuxiao.

Ye Yuxiao appeared quickly, followed by people from Pingnan Palace who saw him off. After giving many instructions, Ye Yuxiao waved Ouyang Sheng to come forward and introduced him to everyone: "This is Yao Ying, the guard of the Yingchuan Hou Mansion. He and I are old acquaintances, and he will come with me this time." Liangtong County.”

It was just an additional guard. No one thought much about it. They just told Ye Yuxiao not to tell anyone that he was from the Yingchuan Hou Mansion, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble. After all, there were Dong Yi and two young ladies from the Xue family along the way.

Ye Yuxiao nodded in agreement and asked Ouyang Sheng to join the other guards.

Suddenly Dong Yi, Xue Jingyu and Xue Fanling also arrived. Dong Yi rode a horse, while Xue Jingyu and Xue Fanling rode a carriage.

They were rushing to save someone, and they actually took a car? The three-day journey had to take five days! Ye Yuxiao was full of displeasure, but had no time to get involved with them. He only said: "Rescuing people is like putting out fire, there is no delay. People on horseback go first, and people in cars can do whatever they want."

Xue Jingyu's face changed immediately. She went to Liangtong County and rode horses for three days. After three days, her legs were completely worn out.

It's just that Ye Yuxiao is used to riding horses, so that's all. How come even Dong Yi, who has always been pampered and pampered, takes the initiative to ride on a horse?

Xue Jingyu was tangled in her heart and complained to Dong Yi in a low voice: "Envoy Dong is really good at trying to please Mrs. Ning Hui, even if she doesn't have two legs, she still has to ride a horse."

Dong Yi glanced at Xue Jingyu and said nothing. He really wasn't doing this to please Ye Yuxiao, but he still remembered that when he was rescuing people in southern Xinjiang in the past, all the imperial doctors who were passive and slow in their work did not end well. Ye Yuxiao was very strict with his work, not to mention that the person they wanted to save this time was her uncle. He didn't want to offend her on such a trivial matter.

Xue Jingyu was not able to join Dong Yi's side, so she had to reluctantly change the carriage into a horse.

Xue Fanling was very hesitant and persuaded her in a low voice: "Cousin, we rarely ride horses. I'm afraid the three-day journey is too much. Otherwise, according to Mrs. Ninghui's wish, let them go first and we will follow behind."

How can that be done? She is working hard this time. If she wants to compete with Ye Yuxiao, she must not fall behind! Xue Jingyu gritted her teeth and coaxed Xue Fanling: "If you save General Gu this time, General Gu will be extremely grateful. Maybe he will let his son marry you in return for your life-saving grace?"

As she spoke, she pursed her lips towards Gu Yuanlang: "Look, that handsome young master is General Gu's eldest son, and he will inherit the title of Ping'an Nan Palace in the future."

The future King Pingnan? Xue Fanling glanced at Gu Yuanlang and saw that he was as handsome as Xue Jingyu said, but her face turned a little red without knowing it.

This girl's desire to marry well was actually more serious than hers. Xue Jingyu secretly despised it, asked someone to bring the horse, and handed the reins to Xue Fanling.

After saying goodbye to everyone, the group rode towards the north.

Ye Yuxiao, Gu Yuanlang and Gu Qingyan were all thinking about Gu Heng's illness, so they raced their horses very fast. Dong Yi tried his best to keep up, but felt that his head was turned into paste. Xue Jingyu and Xue Fanling were even more miserable and shed tears from exhaustion.

According to Ye Yuxiao's idea, she planned to drive all night, tie herself to the horse with a rope, and just squint for a while.

But in the evening, it started to rain and the roads were muddy, making walking difficult. Ouyang Sheng felt sorry for Ye Yuxiao and came to persuade him: "Madam, if the rain is so heavy, if your clothes are soaked, you will get sick. General Gu Heng is still waiting for you to rescue him. You would rather slow down than fall first." Get off."

It makes sense, save yourself first before you can save others. Ye Yuxiao was not a stubborn person, so he readily listened to the advice and ordered the guards to find a small hotel along the road and booked the entire second floor.
