"I didn't know that General Gu encountered such a danger. Madam Gu, wait a moment." Su Dazhuang took a pen and paper and wrote down the names of five people for Li Mumu to see. "These five people were loyal and brave when they were in the army. They were also the earliest guys in our shop. They were the ones who firmly believed that our shop could succeed when we were not optimistic at the beginning."
"When delivering goods on weekdays, if I encounter anyone who has trouble, I will help if I can. But if there are things that cannot be said, I will keep my mouth shut. Madam, just rest assured about this."
Li Mumu took the list. She happened to know everyone on the list, so she nodded and said, "I'll leave this matter to you all."
"Of course it is our duty." Su Dazhuang said, "This is a matter of concern to General Gu's safety, so we will do our best. Madam Gu, do you want to talk to them in person?"
"Okay." Li Mumu nodded.
Su Dazhuang went to call the five men.
They all had delivery work to do at the moment, and came over immediately after finishing the delivery.
After hearing what Li Mumu said, he immediately took it seriously.
At the same time, Li Mumu also asked Zhao Zhengxiang to write a letter to Dajiang and Xiang Guicai.
Dajiang and Xiang Guicai are now the heads of a region respectively.
Since Zhao Zhengxiang uses the military method of sending letters, the two of them will receive the letter faster.
While Zhao Zhengxiang and others were looking for Gu Shangqing, Li Mumu was also constantly researching where Gu Shangqing might be, constantly narrowing the scope.
Li Mumu also followed Zhao Zhengxiang's team to look for Gu Shangqing.
Originally, Zhao Zhengxiang was afraid that the search would be too difficult, especially since there were many mountains and steep cliffs at the border, and he was afraid that Li Mumu would not be able to hold on.
Zhao Zhengxiang didn't have the courage to say it because he was afraid that Li Mumu would slow down their search.
But Li Mumu knew Zhao Zhengxiang's worries, so she said, "I am not a lady from a wealthy family. I may not be as strong as the soldiers, and I may not be as fast as them in crossing mountains and rivers, but I can definitely hold on and not fall behind."
"General Zhao, I won't try to be stubborn. If I can't hold on any longer, I will stay here and not participate in the search. I will definitely not slow down the process." Li Mumu assured Zhao Zhengxiang, "Besides, I want to find my husband as soon as possible more than anyone else, and I will never allow myself to be a drag."
Zhao Zhengxiang also understood Li Mumu's feelings.
No one knows what Gu Shangqing's current situation is.
Li Mumu couldn't do anything.
How can I feel at ease if I can only wait?
But according to General Zhao, Li Mumu has already done a lot.
She traveled a long way from the capital to the border, arranged for the trusted clerks of the errand shop and the freight shop to search for Gu Shangqing in a low-key manner, and also took General Li's handwritten letter to ask him for help. She also got a clear path from the saint, avoiding the risk of being questioned if she went out to search without permission.
None of these can be done by just anyone, let alone a woman in the inner chamber.
Zhao Zhengxiang admired Li Mumu very much, and also envied Gu Shangqing for having a wife who cared so much about him.
So, Zhao Zhengxiang agreed to Li Mumu's request and allowed Li Mumu to join the search with the team.
Li Mumu participated in some easy roads.
If it is those dangerous mountain roads, let Li Mumu wait.
But Li Mumu still tried her best to go along.
She was afraid of missing any clues.
"Mrs. Gu! General Zhao!" A guy in the uniform of a runner came on horseback and shouted first when he was still some distance away.
His voice was very hoarse, obviously he had been traveling for a long time and didn't even have time to rest.
Li Mumu hurriedly looked over and saw that the guy came closer, stopped the horse, but as soon as he loosened his grip, he rolled off the horse and fell to the ground.
The soldiers nearby hurried to help him up.
Li Mumu also hurried over, but this guy was a stranger and she didn't know him.
"Letter...letter..." the waiter said weakly and tiredly, "In my arms..."
The soldier hurriedly took out a letter from his arms and handed it to Li Mumu.
Li Mumu took it and asked, could it be that he found Gu Shangqing?
Li Mumu hurriedly opened it and took a look.
The letter came from Dajiang, and the person who delivered the letter was a guy from Wuwei.
At the same time, the soldier also brought a kettle to give the guy water.
Li Mumu read the letter, which said that they found traces suspected to be Gu Shangqing in a small mountain village near Wuwei.
The village is located in the mountains near Wuwei. The villagers make a living by hunting. There are not many villagers, and each household is far apart from each other.
Occasionally I would go into the city to buy some things, and I would also find a errand shop to buy some things and deliver them to me on fixed days every month.
Just today, a villager went to the city to buy
The errand shop registered and renewed its membership fee, and asked the errand shop to deliver some vegetables every ten days.
Originally, because the villagers lived in the mountains, it was very difficult for them to go to the city.
It's hot now, so it's hard to store any vegetables. They can be stored longer in winter, and you can dry some vegetables in the winter to eat when the weather warms up.
But as the weather gets hotter, dried vegetables are difficult to store, so we have to eat them up as soon as possible.
Part of the meat they hunted was sold in the city, and some was kept for their own consumption.
But when the weather is hot, meat will easily spoil.
Usually, I eat potatoes and flour.
Every ten days, I would ask the errand boy to bring some other dishes, which would last me two or three days.
This time, when the villagers came to the errand shop clerk to renew their contract, they started chatting and said that there had been something strange happening in the Zhang family in their village recently. After asking around, they found out that there was a new man in the family, but he was in poor health, lying in bed every day and often in a coma.
Because they have lived in the mountains for generations, medical treatment and medicine in the city are expensive. They are familiar with the mountains and know many herbs.
The old man Zhang's daughter Yingzi often goes up the mountain to collect herbs these days.
They also teased Old Man Zhang, asking if he would wait for the young man to wake up and become his son-in-law.
Anyway, the villagers saw that Yingzi was paying attention to the young man, so she must be interested in him.
They were curious about what the young man looked like, but Yingzi stopped them from looking, saying that the young man was weak and was more unconscious than awake.
Even if we want to see it, we have to wait until the young man is fully recovered.
Although Yingzi loved the young man, judging from the old man Zhang's attitude, she didn't seem optimistic.
He said that the young man was good-looking and did not look like an ordinary person, and that the wounds on his body were all caused by weapons. When he was applying medicine, he also had wounds of varying sizes on his body.
Ordinary people wouldn't have these injuries.
But the young man was still unconscious, and Yingzi couldn't help herself just by looking at his handsome face.
Yingzi has lived in a mountain village all year round. The farthest place she has been to is the city of Wuwei. She has never seen a man as handsome as Gu Shangqing.
But she thought she had hidden it very well. When Old Man Zhang reminded her that the young man could not be kept and would leave after he woke up completely, and asked Yingzi not to think about anything else, Yingzi flatly denied her thoughts and said only that she wanted to save a life.
