Chapter 1538: Let's go

Tuobayan stood in the darkness. The weather was not cold, but his body was cold from the outside to the inside. He felt a cold heart was shivering, and he was constantly emitting cold air, making him fall into an ice cellar.

He didn't go into the room, but just stood in the darkness in the yard, staring at the figure walking around in the room intently. The child's crying slowly turned into a hum. Guo Yi sang a sleeping song softly, walked to the bed, bent down and put the child down, leaned gently on the corner of the back, but he leaned against the corner of the bed, and the singing was still ringing.

I don’t know how long it has passed, but the singing in the room has stopped. After a while, the candlelight shook a few times and suddenly went out. Tuobayan walked slowly to the window and quietly pushed open the window. With the vague moonlight outside, he saw Guo Yi leaning against the bedside, and was already asleep, but the corner of his mouth still had a happy smile.

Tuobayan clutched the windowsill with both hands, but the man hunched over to the window, put his head on the wall, and cried silently.

Murong Hai is now in a state of great significance. As the heroic army that appeared and saved Chang'an City at the most critical moment, whenever they appeared on the street, they would always welcome bursts of cheers. Walking on the street with his soldiers held high his head and chest was his most joyful thing. He enjoyed this day when he was worshipped as a hero. Every day, some gentry and wealthy people in Chang'an City would go to the place where they were stationed to work with some gifts. Now their troops are enjoying the glory they could never imagine when they were in Hengduan Mountain. In fact, the truly combat-capable army in Chang'an is theirs. After defeating the rebels, the army returned to the Yulong Mountain station.

Murong Hai decided to go and visit the brothels in Chang'an during his rest. Maybe the sisters on the building saw that they were themselves, and they didn't even want to be tangled with their heads.

But Tuobayan left for three days. Didn’t he agree to come back in one day? He had already arranged the next activity, but Tuobayan didn’t come back. As the deputy general of this army, he could not leave and could only work honestly.

Of course, he was not idle either. Now he had more and more maps about Chang'an City on his hands. There were many talents under his command who had received professional training in this area. Thanks to their current status, even if they were strictly guarding the important places, they could go in and take a look.

Of course, he still couldn't get into the imperial city, which made him very regretful.

After splicing together the scattered maps, the city defense deployment in Chang'an City gradually took shape in his eyes. There were still many blank areas. It was not that they could not enter these places, but that they did not have enough staff. As long as they stayed in the city for a long enough time, he believed that this picture would be filled in the end.

Chang'an City is indeed too big. He once went to Yuejing City. Yuejing is a city full of construction sites, but compared to Chang'an, it seems that there are still many shortcomings. Murong Hai can't tell what the shortcomings are, but he just feels like this in his heart.

There was a sudden sound of horse hooves outside. Murong Hai could hear it was the sound of Tuobayan's red war horse. It was the most majestic among the cavalrymen. He stood up with a smile, rolled up the map in his hand, and carefully collected it. Tuobayan finally came back and he had free time. Today he could go to some places first. The soldiers could not go to those places, but there was no problem with him. After finishing the work, he could also try it in the brothel. Can he taste some dessert without paying?

Murong Hai greeted him with a smile on his face, but was shocked when he saw Tuobayan. After three days, Tuobayan's appearance changed drastically, his eyes were black and his face was pale, and he lost a lot of weight. Did he not sleep?

"Why did you look like this?" He grabbed the reins in surprise, looked at Tuobayan, and asked with a smile: "The future is long. No matter how beautiful your sister-in-law is, you don't have to attack him. Look, you are like a ghost now. You can scare someone to death without dressing up when you go out at night."

Tuobayan turned over and got off the horse, walking inside without looking back. "Haizi, come in, I have something to tell you."

Murong Hai blinked his eyes and looked at Tuobayan. He could see that Tuobayan was really worried. He just joked that if it were normal, Tuobayan would definitely push back without hesitation.

He threw the reins of the horse to a personal soldier, and he followed Tuobayan into the door.

"What happened? You look very bad? Is anyone making things difficult for you? Damn, we are the heroes. Who dares to make things difficult for you? Now in Chang'an City, there are still people who dare to make things difficult for us? I'll kill him." Murong Hai said angrily.

Tuobayan sat calmly and looked at Murong Hai without saying a word. Murong Hai was a little furious when he saw him, and pulled over the chair and sat opposite him, "What's wrong with you? It's very scary to look at people like this, do you know?"

"Haizi, I know who you are?" Tuobayan said suddenly.

Murong Hai widened his eyes, "Of course you know who I am, I am Murong Hai. We have been together for almost ten years. You don't know who I am yet. Hey, are you in a bad mood?"

Tuobayan looked at Murong Hai without blinking, and said word by word: "Of course I know you are Murong Hai, and I also know that you are a spy detective of the Ming Dynasty."

Murong Hai suddenly froze, and his whole body felt like he was poured from head to toe by a basin of ice water. He felt the chill penetrate into every crack of his bones. After a while, he forced a smile and said, "You are crazy, what are you talking about?"

"One year I sent you out of Hengduan Mountains to Hulao Pass to find out the enemy's situation? You actually went to Ming Dynasty, right? You found your own wife and children. Now they are all living in Yuejing City. Your son is still a student of the Beijing University. You are about to graduate this year. Those who came from the Beijing University can be the least good at being a county magistrate in the Ming Dynasty, right? Haizi, your son is promising, unlike you. Can you recognize a lot of words now?"

Murong Hai was stunned. He thought he had hidden the deepest secret. Tuobayan easily lifted the bottom of the sky, and cold sweat came out one after another, and his hand unconsciously moved to the hilt of the knife around his waist.

Tuobayan looked at Murong Hai's hand and said lightly: "You want to do it? You should know that the ones you fight with me will support me at most ten moves. By the way, there are still many of you in the military camp, but now many of them are either on duty outside or sent to work outside. How many are there in the military camp? Three hundred or five hundred? Gather them all together and you can indeed kill me. Then, what? Kill out of Chang'an City? Then go back to Mingguo thousands of miles away? Should you go to Luzhou or Changning? No matter which way you go, it will be a dead end."

Murong Hai took a deep breath and smiled bitterly: "It turns out you know everything, okay, I admit, I am, what do you want to deal with me? Kill us? I didn't see you bringing the army here."

An extremely painful look flashed through Tuobayan's eyes, "You and my brother have been together for nearly ten years, right? This is someone who is even more close to each other than their own brothers. How could I kill you?"

"Then what do you want to do? It's impossible to rebel against me. I would rather die. Since you know everything about me, you should know that I will never betray Ming, not for anything else, just for my son. As you said, after graduation, he will become the magistrate of a county, and he will go to a wealthy place like Shayang to be the county magistrate. Therefore, for the future of my son, I will never betray my son. If you want to persuade me, save money."

Tuobayan nodded: "I won't advise you to leave, take all of you and those who are hiding in Chang'an City, leave quickly. I know you can contact them, and I will only give you a day."

Tuobayan took out a piece of stuff from his arms and put it on the table, "This is my handwritten to transfer you out of the city to wipe out a rebel who suddenly appeared. Take him and leave Chang'an, then take off your military uniforms and throw away everything that can indicate your identity. The Qi State is still very chaotic now. I believe you can escape back to the Ming Dynasty. When the emperor comes back, you can't leave if you want to."

"Would you let us go?" Murong Hai looked at Tuobayan in shock.

"Brothers of ten years, how could I kill you? Let's go. In one day, only one day, Cao Hui and the others will find out the problem. This is the longest time you can fight for. Then whether you can escape the ghost's pursuit depends on your own." Tuobayan said slowly.

"We're leaving, what do you do? Brother Tuoba, why not..."

"I will not follow you because an army of 3,000 people will never escape no matter what. Besides, you just said that for your son, you will never betray the Ming Dynasty, Haizi, and I also have my own son." Tuobayan said slowly.

Murong Hai was silent for a while and stood up suddenly: "Okay, even if we may meet on the battlefield in the future, even if we may fight to the death in the future, just fight this, and I will still recognize you as my elder brother. If you die, I will restrain you. If I die, don't forget to send my body back to my wife and son."

Murong Hai turned around and walked out with great strides.

"Stay the map." The voice of Tuobayan came from behind.

Murong Hai stiffened, and he took out the roll of drawings from his arms and bent down and placed them on the ground.

After a while, the sound of gathering troops sounded in the barracks. Through the window, Tuobayan stood up, walked to the window, and watched the soldiers step onto the war horses, Murong Hai also turned around, looked at him for a moment, and finally turned around and ran outside to ride the horse.
