Chapter 292: There is a providence in the dark
The matter of encountering a Taoist priest was quickly left behind by Lu Yunxi, there are so many Taoist priests in this world, can't you interrogate each of them, right?
Since the Taoist priest who asked Nangong Long to marry Dong Meng appeared in order to increase the difficulty of Lu Yunxi's game, then he will definitely appear again in the future, so why should he rush to investigate?
Thinking of this, Lu Yunxi no longer grasped a clue from the Taoist priest to delve in.
Everything in Jiangning City is finally settled, Juan'er and Brother Sheng want to retire to the countryside, Lu Yunxi gave them a sum of silver taels, and also promised that as long as Juan'er and Brother Sheng need it in the future, the Yun family will definitely help.
Lu Yunxi handed over all the business of Jiangning City to a few trustworthy shopkeepers, cloud housekeepers, and the Xiao family sisters, and agreed that the cloud housekeepers would go to Beijing to report the accounts once a quarter.
After doing all this, Lu Yunxi and Si Tingyan finally got on the journey back to Beijing.
The two of them stayed for more than three months on this trip to Jiangning City.
When I came, it was still the height of summer, and now the autumn flavor is very strong, and Lu Yunxi's belly is too big to walk.
Thinking that a few months ago, she was still running around with this child, and now that the child is about to fall to the ground, Lu Yunxi's heart is still a little nervous.
In order to make her a little more comfortable on the way back to Beijing, Si Tingyan and the others chose to take the land route, and he ordered someone to put a thick layer of soft cushion under the chair of the carriage early in the morning, in case Lu Yunxi felt uncomfortable on the waist after running for a long time.
Early in the morning, a group of carriages and horses slowly left under the gaze of Nangong Long and others.
Hong Aya sat beside Lu Yunxi with Zhao'er in her arms, and Zhao'er was also a little older, leaning on her arms, sleeping soundly.
During this trip to Jiangning City, Zhao'er repeatedly made contributions, and this divine beast given to him by the system really saved Lu Yunxi a lot of trouble.
After the carriage traveled for a full hour, Si Tingyan galloped forward two steps, lifted the curtain of the carriage, pointed in the direction outside the carriage, and said softly, "It's time to Ningpo Mountain." ”
Lu Yunxi took a look at it and immediately ordered the coachman to stop.
She got out of the carriage with the help of Red Aya and looked around.
The scene of the last time I came to Ningpo Mountain is still vivid.
The two visits to Ningpo Mountain were thrilling, and this place was destined to become an unforgettable boundary during Lu Yunxi's trip to Ningcheng in the Jiangjiang River.
The cold wind, characteristic of autumn, blows the leaves and makes a rustling sound.
Where did the monks of Ci'an Temple go, He Haichao still refused to say.
I heard that He Haichao was also escorted into Beijing by these two people, but I don't know if he entered the capital and went to prison in the criminal department, whether he could ask the whereabouts of the monks was also a great merit.
Lu Yunxi thought about it, and was about to say a few more words to Si Tingyan, but saw Zhao'er bow up, scream, jump out of Hong Aya's arms, and run all the way forward.
Red Aya was startled, and chased after her.
Thinking that every time Zhao'er ran away, she would bring new news, Lu Yunxi was a little timid and didn't dare to step forward.
She is about to return to Beijing, and she really doesn't want to have any more troubles at this time.
"Red Aya just chase after it. ”
Si Tingyan also grabbed Lu Yunxi, and looked at Hong Aya and Zhao'er walking forward one after the other, "Zhao'er listens to Hong Aya the most." ”
Lu Yunxi nodded slowly, and with the support of Si Tingyan, he walked to the side under the pine tree, leaned against the tree pole, and closed his eyes to recuperate.
Suddenly, I heard a squeaky sound in the mountains and forests in the distance.
I saw a group of people coming slowly down from the top of the mountain.
The person at the front rode a white high-headed horse and wore a blue court robe, looking like a Beijing official.
He was followed by seventeen or eighteen men dressed as guards, all of whom surrounded a prisoner's cart.
The men in the prisoner car were chained to their hands and were sitting in the car with their eyes closed.
This person is not an outsider, it is He Haichao!
Speaking of which, the person at the forefront is not a stranger, it is Li Yun, the son of Shangshu of the Criminal Department of the capital.
This son is the second son of Li He, the secretary of the Criminal Department, and now serves as the secretary of the Criminal Department.
He saw Lu Yunxi from afar, immediately turned over and dismounted, handed the reins to the guards behind him, and stepped forward quickly.
According to the official rank, Li Yunda doesn't have to be like this, but who doesn't know that this Lu Yunxi is the righteous grandson accepted by the Queen Mother, and the Queen Mother personally named the county lord and is very favored. Before he left Beijing, the Queen Mother learned that the destination of his trip was to Jiangning, and specially asked him to say that if he saw Lu Yunxi, he would never bring a sentence - the Queen Mother missed her very much and waited for her to return to Beijing.
"The county lord. ”
Li Yun's speaking skills had already reached Lu Yunxi, and he bowed his hand.
Lu Yunxi got up and returned the salute, and glanced at the prisoner cart parked on the side, "It's hard work." Originally, Jiangning City was supposed to send someone to escort him to Beijing, but he was the governor of Jiangning City, and he was the highest official in Jiangning City, so he could only bother Li Tisi to come from the capital to escort him. ”
Li Yun hurriedly waved his hand, with a smile on his face, "What did the county lord say? Since the ministers and others are in the Criminal Department, they are naturally ready to go around like this early in the morning." On the day the minister left Beijing, the queen mother specially told the county lord to return to Beijing as soon as possible, and the queen mother missed it very much. ”
Lu Yunxi nodded hurriedly, "I also miss her old man very much." How did Tisi come down from the mountain?"
"He Haichao acted in Ci'an Temple, and according to the rules, he naturally had to go to the scene. ”
"He explained the whereabouts of those monks in Ci'an Temple?"
Lu Yunxi asked with concern.
Li Yun shook his head and let out a long sigh, "Since we came, He Haichao has only submitted a confession. It confessed to his imprisonment of the county lord and the framing of the Nangong family and the Yun family, but he refused to say anything where the monks of the Ci'an Temple went. ”
Li Yun said as he turned his head and glanced at He Haichao.
He Haichao didn't know when he had opened his eyes, his burning gaze was staring straight at Lu Yunxi, the corners of his mouth moved slightly, and he actually showed a few bloodthirsty smiles.
I haven't seen him for just a few days, and this He Haichao has been the same as the original judgment.
Lu Yunxi stared at his eyes, and his heart was also fluttering.
"How innocent are those monks in Ci'an Temple, who are going to be killed for his own selfish desires. ”
Si Tingyan also glanced at He Haichao, shook his head helplessly, and said in a deep voice.
Li Yun exchanged a few more words with Lu Yunxi, and then ordered someone to rush back to Jiangning City immediately, take the formalities, and go to Beijing.
The prisoner cart slowly moved in front of Lu Yunxi, He Haichao suddenly rushed forward, grabbed the railing of the prisoner cart with both hands, stared at Lu Yunxi's eyes, and shouted loudly, "Lu Yunxi, do you remember that white-bearded old man? Do you remember what he said to you?"
