Gu Shangqing was silent for a few breaths, looked at Li Mumu with red eyes, "Okay."

  Knowing that Gu Shangqing would be leaving in a few days, Li Mumu didn't feel tired of being pestered by Gu Shangqing and cooperated even if she was tired.

  He even cooperated with Gu Shangqing to try many more bold and unrestrained methods.

  Gu Shangqing hugged Li Mumu tightly, and he was ready to set off as soon as the sun rose.

  Yuan Du had already prepared himself mentally.

  But after spending these days with Li Mumu, he became more and more sad and afraid of the arrival of dawn.

  I couldn't help but hug Li Mumu tighter.

  Li Mumu couldn't sleep either. Gu Shangqing was going to the Turks alone and she couldn't help him in any way. She would be thousands of miles away from him and wouldn't be able to receive any news from him.

  In comparison, she would rather he lead the troops into battle, at least to fight openly on the battlefield with guns and swords and have the support of comrades.

  It is much better than when he was alone in the Turkic region.

  "Husband." Li Mumu hugged Gu Shangqing's waist tightly, and squeezed harder. "Come back safely, I'll wait for you at home. If you're worried about me going to Turkestan, don't let me go to Turkestan to find you."

  "Okay." Gu Shangqing lowered his head and kissed Li Mumu's shoulder heavily, "I will definitely come back safely. You wait for me at home and don't run around."

  "Yeah." Li Mumu responded in a hoarse voice, and her shoulder was slightly numb from his kiss.

  Li Mumu tilted her head and bit his neck hard.

  Until I heard Gu Shangqing's scream of pain, until I tasted the rusty taste of blood in my mouth.

  "I don't know how long this tooth mark will last." Li Mumu said, "If you want to take risks, touch this tooth mark before you go. Take good care of yourself and remember not to take risks unless it is absolutely necessary."

  "Okay." Gu Shangqing responded.

  The two of them just hugged each other, talking to each other, neither of them was willing to fall asleep.

  "It's dawn." Gu Shangqing saw the color of the window change, gradually turning from pitch black to bluish white.

  The windows at that time were not made of glass like those today, but were covered with oil paper, so the light transmittance was naturally not that good.

  I can only barely recognize one or two.

  Gu Shangqing moved and prepared to get up, but was hugged tightly by Li Mumu.

  "Mumu..." Gu Shangqing called in a low voice.

  Li Mumu sniffed, and finally wrapped her arms around Gu Shangqing's waist and pulled them inwards.

  , then let him go.

  Li Mumu lowered her head and rested her forehead on Gu Shangqing's chest, "I'm fine, get up."

  Li Mumu stood up, and Gu Shangqing felt even more uncomfortable seeing her like this.

  After they had packed up, Li Mumu saw that Gu Shangqing didn't look very good either. "You haven't slept all night, how can you travel today?"

  "It's okay, I'm used to it." Gu Shangqing said, "You don't have to worry. During the march, we often rotated to guard at night to prevent enemy attacks. It was common to stay up all night, but it didn't affect our energy during the day."

  Li Mumu didn't say anything else. It was too late to say anything now.

  His trip to the Turks is not something that can be done overnight. I'm afraid that from today on, he won't be able to sleep well at night.

  The two of them left the house, and the others had already gotten up.

  Although they didn't know that Gu Shangqing was going to Turkestan, they knew that Gu Shangqing was going out to carry out a mission.

  Although Gu Shangqing did not say it was dangerous, everyone knew that there was no safety when carrying out a mission, so they all got up early to send Gu Shangqing off.

  Li Mumu went to the kitchen and took out the food she had prepared early in the morning.

  Not a big package.

  It was fine in the territory of Daxi, but once he entered the Turkic Empire, Gu Shangqing would have to travel light. The more things he brought, the more inconvenient it would be.

  "Instant noodles still take up some space, so I baked some steamed bread slices for you and also dried some beef jerky." Li Mumu said.

  "Yes." Gu Shangqing took the bag.

  "There's still some money here, just spend it on the way, don't put yourself in a difficult position." Li Mumu said, and she lowered her voice again, "When you're in Daxi, eat and drink well while you can feel comfortable. Have a good rest. Once you enter... you won't have these opportunities anymore."

  "I secretly exchanged some Turkic coins with foreign merchants." Li Mumu said. Those foreign merchants not only came to Daxi to do business, but they did business everywhere and had a lot of foreign currencies in their hands.

  Fortunately, Li Mumu's business is doing well now. He has imported a large amount of foreign spices from foreign merchants and has gotten to know many of them.

  "When you get there, you won't be able to use Daxi's money. Even if you can exchange it on the black market, it will be too conspicuous for you to exchange Daxi's money for Turkic money with your Daxi appearance."

  "So I tried my best to change some for you. Take these and don't exchange them for money if you can, so as not to expose yourself." Li Mumu said.

  Gu Shangqing didn't expect

  Li Mumu's thought was so thorough.

  He originally planned to find a way to exchange some silver and money for the Turks once he reached the border.

  There is also a black market on the border in Daxi where you can exchange.

  Before this, they had captured Turkic captives and also looted some Turkic silver and money from them, but not much.

  After all, no one brings money to the battlefield.

  At most, it was just some loose coins that fell into my clothes and I forgot to take out.

  General Shang managed to give him some, but it was really limited.

  Although it is possible to exchange at the black market on the border of Daxi, it is also dangerous.

  Especially since he was being watched by the Turks, who had many spies on the border and received information quickly.

  He was afraid that the news that he had gone to the black market to exchange coins would soon reach the ears of Bagatur and the others.

  Although one of the purposes of this trip was to make the Turks think that he went to Turks for Su Zhier, he was sure to let the Turks find out that he had entered Turks.

  But not so early.

  The later the Turks knew about it, the safer he would be.

  Now that Li Mumu has exchanged these for him, he no longer has to take risks in the black market.

  Gu Shangqing put these away solemnly and said, "Madam, don't worry. I will not take risks unless it is absolutely necessary."

  Li Mumu nodded.

  "Have breakfast before leaving?" Li Mumu asked again.

  "Okay." Gu Shangqing wanted to set off immediately.

  But seeing Li Mumu's reluctant look, he couldn't leave.

  Besides, the saint didn't say what time we must set out, right?

  Even if he leaves now, he still has to find a place to eat.

  All the previous instructions between Li Mumu and Gu Shangqing were spoken in a low voice.

  But this sentence does not avoid family members.

  After hearing this, Mother Gu hurriedly said, "Great, I'll go to the kitchen and cook dumplings. We made them yesterday afternoon, and Mumu even made them with mutton and green onion fillings."

  Gu Shangqing smiled and said, "I haven't had a good meal of mutton since I came to the capital. People don't eat much mutton in the capital, and it's not as good as the one in Chong'an. It has too much mutton smell."

  "Don't we have a freight shop? Mumu specially asked the freight shop to transport a live sheep from Chong'an and found a butcher to slaughter it." Mother Gu said, "It's guaranteed to be delicious."

  "When you come back, I'll make you grilled lamb chops and pork belly." Li Mumu said.
