Chapter 161 The Bride
When she heard that they were going to dress up as a wedding procession, Shen Yiyi's eyes suddenly lit up.
"That's a good idea!"
If they just went there like this, and the bandits knew they were delivering government silver and food, they would definitely intercept it all.
But if they disguise themselves as a wedding procession, that would be easy. Just like Boss Jiang said, as long as they pay enough silver, maybe they can be allowed to pass.
You have to be someone who often travels this route and has experience, so you know how to deal with those bandits.
As if she remembered something, she smiled and pointed at Shang Zhanchen, that handsome face that charmed everyone.
"Xiaoguai will be very beautiful if she dresses up as a bride!"
Judging from this guy's appearance, he would definitely look really good if he were to dress up as a bride.
“……………………”Jiang You’s mouth twitched.
He glanced secretly at Shang Zhanchen, and it seemed that this was not the effect his master wanted. After hesitating for a moment, he looked at Shen Yiyi with a smile.
"Miss Shen, if Young Master Xiaoguai is dressed as a bride, then what will you dress as?"
"Maid, I'll dress up as the bride's maid, and you'll dress up as the groom, isn't that perfect?" Shen Yiyi smiled.
He pointed at Jiang You's nose again. Apart from Xiaoguai, he was the tallest in the team, so he was the most suitable person to be the groom.
“……………………”Shang Zhanchen’s face was full of black lines.
He glared at Shen Yiyi with dissatisfaction. Is this woman out of her mind to be able to say such words?
How could a woman as tall as him be recognized at the first sight?
Seeing their master's face darken, Jiang Zuo and Han Chun also came closer.
"Miss, this doesn't seem appropriate. Xiaoguai is too tall to be a bride."
"Yes, Miss Shen, although Xiaoguai looks good, her head is too big. If she were to dress up as a bride, she would definitely be recognized."
Han Chun also nodded in agreement. If the master really let her dress up as a bride, then they would have no chance of keeping this skin.
After saying this, he winked at the others, and everyone nodded in agreement.
"Yes, Master Xiaoguai is too big."
"It's just that it's too easy to be discovered."
The secret guards all echoed each other as if they were saving their lives. Hearing them say this, Shen Yiyi hesitated.
"What you said makes sense."
I just thought that Xiaoguai was pretty, and if she dressed up as a bride, she would definitely not be discovered.
I forgot that he is the tallest person, so if he were to dress up as a bride, it would be easy to be exposed.
"Then who will play the bride?" She leaned over and looked into the crowd again.
She looked to see if there was anyone smaller who might be more suitable to dress up as the bride, but was obviously disappointed.
Although these people were not as tall as Xiaoguai, they were not much shorter than him, and their heights were surprisingly similar.
I wanted to find the kind of short person I had in mind, but there was none. Just as I was thinking about it, Jiang Zuo came over with a smile.
"Miss, I think you are the most suitable person to play the bride."
"Me!" Shen Yiyi was stunned. She looked at Jiang Zuo and pointed at her nose. She had never thought about it that way.
"I also think Miss Shen is quite suitable. She just needs to dress up a little." Jiang You nodded in agreement.
Soon after, others followed suit.
"Miss Shen is indeed quite suitable."
"That's right, Miss Shen is a girl, and she won't be discovered if she dresses up as a bride."
Hearing that everyone was recommending her so seriously, Shen Yiyi hesitated for a moment and then nodded readily.
"Okay, then I'll be the bride."
Anyway, this is not true, so there is no need to worry about it. Besides, she is the only girl at the moment, so it would be quite suitable for her to play the bride.
“……………………”Everyone.
Everyone was trying to hold back their smiles. They thought the Crown Princess would refuse, but they didn't expect her to agree so readily.
Even Jiang You and Jiang Zuo thought so in their hearts. They thought that the Crown Princess would not agree. This was too easy.
He stole a glance at his master, and the corners of his mouth curled up, showing that he was happy.
In order to perform this scene well, the team decided to set up camp on the spot and sent people to prepare some things.
Seeing the Crown Princess lying in the carriage, Jiang Zuo and the others followed their master to the forest in front.
"Master, do you think you can get away with this?" Jiang Zuo looked at his master with suspicion.
The bandits in Baihu Mountain are the second prince's subordinates. Even if he couldn't recognize them, he wouldn't let them go seeing that they had taken so many things.
"Yes, master, is it okay for us to do this?" Jiang You also looked doubtful.
That group of bandits always kills people to silence them when they rob things, and the master even wants to disguise themselves as a wedding procession. Considering how brutal that group of bandits is, how could he let them pass?
I don't know what the master is thinking. Could it be that he just wants to have a wedding with the Crown Princess? It can't be such a trivial thing.
"Of course this won't work." Shang Zhanchen said in a low voice.
He looked up at Shen Yiyi in the carriage again and lowered his voice again.
"We will arrange a wedding procession tomorrow. We should first tie down those bandits, and you can lead the convoy to go around them through a small path." Shang Zhanchen looked at Jiang You.
Not to mention that the bandits in Baihu Mountain are under the command of the Second Prince, even if they are just ordinary robbers.
Seeing that they had pulled so many things, he would not let them go. He naturally understood this logic.
The safest way right now is to let the convoy take a detour. The only way to avoid being discovered by them is to divert their attention.
As long as they disguise themselves as a wedding procession and tie down the bandits, the convoy can successfully pass through Baihu Mountain.
"Master, this is too dangerous." Jiang Zuo frowned. It turned out that this is what his master thought.
"Yes, master, why don't we send a message to General Wei?" Jiang You's brows were also tightly furrowed.
It's only a few days' journey from here to Lingnan. If we send a message to General Wei and his men, they will probably arrive soon.
They could just wait here until General Wei came with his army, and then they could successfully cross Baihu Mountain.
"No." Shang Zhanchen shook his head.
The situation on the border is still unclear at the moment. If General Wei and his men are transferred over here, there may be a surprise attack over there.
Without even a main general, he would be easily taken advantage of, so he had no intention of sending a message to General Wei and the others.
"Then it's too dangerous for you and the Crown Princess!" Jiang You frowned and looked at his master. It was too dangerous to use his master and the Crown Princess as bait.
"Yes, Master, how about you and the Crown Princess take the convoy to take a detour, and let Jiang Zuo and I hold them back?"
After Jiang Youyi finished speaking, he glanced at the Crown Princess in the carriage in the distance. The Crown Princess was the only one who didn't know Kung Fu.
How could they let her do such a dangerous thing? If anything went wrong, they would be blamed for it.
But as soon as he finished speaking, he received a look of disdain from his master.
"Do you think you can catch up with that woman?"
