Chapter 64: Misfortune is not a one-way street
Her dad is missing!
Her father's left arm is long Shi Liantu, and his right arm Sima Song Gui has led people out to look for them, but they have all lost their tracks.
Wei Yu's first reaction was: Her father received the news of Xiqiang's abnormal movement and set off overnight, as the so-called snake has no head, and the Qiang people who are keeping an eye on the dynamics here may have seen her father alone and took the opportunity to capture her father - this is two years earlier than in the previous life.
Could it be that Sima Run is a ghost again?
But marriage can be child's play, how can the military mess around!
Wei Jian asked the question in her heart, but Aunt Fang was just a woman in the house, and she came casually to Zhang's family, Li Jiaxiao, and she was confused outside the hall, and she couldn't even tell the specific address of her father's disappearance, let alone others.
After thinking about it for a while, the guard sent Zu Que, who had "crossed more bridges than Pei Rang took", to investigate the situation, and I have to say that Zu Que was indeed a veteran of cutting wheels in this regard, a top two dozen clumsy Pei Rang.
After a short time, it was reported back to the current situation of the Wei Mansion, and her father had an accident, and the biggest impact was naturally her stepmother, which was a veritable disaster.
Although it was bad luck, Yu Jiang didn't even have the qualifications to be bedridden, because the above didn't seem to care much about her father's disappearance, so Yu Jiang ran non-stop.
The mother family is the support of the married woman, and the first person to find Yu Jiang is the Yu family, but Yu Gong does not protect her because she is also surnamed Yu, and plays an official tone with a sparse goatee: "Ah Jiang doesn't need to worry, this matter has been reported to the imperial court, Bo Jian is the captain of Huqiang, if there is a problem with such an important person, how can the lord sit idly by, you just go back and wait for good news!"
Yu Jiang didn't agree with this, she shook her head and retorted: "How can the concubine be calm, just last year, there were several major events, first the emperor's uncle - Dazai Sima Liang was killed by the rebellious army, and then the emperor's brother - Zhenxi General Sima Cambodia was trapped and killed, and there are many noble children who are intercepted and killed by the rebels and displaced people, and I haven't seen the court come forward to take care of it, there can be many captains who protect Qiang, but the husband of the concubine is only this one, and when the court approves it, I am afraid that it will ......."
Before, Duke Yu still maintained the politeness on his face, listened to her words, and even saved the false courtesy, and said with a straight face: "National affairs are also something that you can criticize as a woman? Hearsay untrue news dares to move out openly to discredit the court, Mrs. Wei, you don't want Xiang Shang's head, my Yu family still wants my own life, go back to your Wei family to guard, don't come out again to cause trouble, and add trouble to your husband who doesn't understand personnel!"
Yu Jiang's proud mother clan sent her away.
The mother's family is not good, and there are in-laws, Yu Jiang went out of the back door of Yu's mansion and entered the front door of his own son-in-law, but Ma Wei was not in awe of the newly appointed mother-in-law, and said with a stern face that he couldn't even see Sima Run's face now, let alone hand over the words.
Although the Wang family is not in-laws, they have this intention, so Yu Jiang also went to look for it, but when the doorman heard that it was her, he shook his head again and again, and he didn't inform her at all.
There is also the Huan family, Wei Yi is their son-in-law, they can't see death without help! The person who received her said that Huan Gong had not returned yet, and those who could take care of this matter had not returned home, so let her go home and wait for news.
In the past, those noble ladies who spent a lot of money to hand over were either polite or polite, or politely refused, and even worse, people said that they had something to do at home, and they avoided it mercilessly......
Of course, Yu Jiang has no money on hand, and he even has to stop eating, so how can he have the money to go up and down?
Wei Jia waited for a night, and finally got the exact news that her father had disappeared in a deep mountain forest that stretched for 300 miles, known as the ominous land by the locals.
Yajia quickly completed the task, Wei Jia stepped forward to take a look, inexplicably gave birth to an inexplicable sense of abruptness, called Pei Rang over, he couldn't see the reason, and Zu Que went out to find out the news, at this time, Wei Jia especially missed Huan Yulai, who knew astronomy and geography - if there was really a problem with this map, he would definitely be able to find it out at a glance, and he could also give her a very pertinent construction by the way......
stared at it for a while, but still didn't find the source of the abruptness, and in Yajia's memory, there was not a single word about this forest, Wei Ji thought about it, and asked Pei Rang to find a map drawn by the government and come back.
Just when Pei Rang was looking for the picture, Zu Que brought back the news again, saying that someone took pity on Yu Jiang's fine skin and tender meat that was about to be torn apart by the carriage, and pointed out a clear way for her- The man first said that Yu Jiang, a woman with long hair and short knowledge, was really unreliable, and when she was in a hurry, she would do some stupid things to dig the ground and find the sky, and the son of such a big disciple of Nangong Guan at home didn't need it, so he ran out and begged his grandfather to tell his grandmother, look at these places she went to, how could it be reliable, even if people gave her this face, it was just to report it for her, but after the approval at the first level, it is estimated that her husband is rotten into a bone frame, it is better to let her son take someone to save her father!
Yu Jiang was very dazed, there was indeed a disciple of Nangong in the family, but it was a girl, and her son was only seven years old, and he couldn't get on horseback, so he could still save his father?
So the man nodded at her more bluntly: "How could it not be! When your daughter got on the sedan chair, the boy also came out to warn his brother-in-law to treat his sister well, otherwise your Wei family will not be finished with him!"
Yu Jiang recalled that Wei Jian did look like a teenager that day, of course, Wei Jian was usually neither male nor female.
Before Yu Jiang harbored his selfishness, he only announced that he was going to marry his daughter to Sima Run, but he didn't say which daughter, and later Wei Jia returned home, she also placed her in a remote idle courtyard, and the people in the house knew that Wei Jia was a "second girl", but in the eyes of outsiders who didn't know why, she was a little lang!
Good news: there's a way, bad news, bow down to your stepdaughter who just had a falling out...... Yu Jiang was entangled.
Wei Ji didn't bother to pay attention to Yu Jiang's entanglement, she pulled Zu to the front of the case and asked him to look at the picture.
Zu Ke stared at it for a long time, and finally dropped his finger on the mountain forest where her father disappeared: "Here, it seems to be different from the map I saw before, is it a mistake?"
Wei Jian shook his head resolutely: "The original picture is from the hands of my second senior brother, there should be no mistake." "Yajia has never had the slightest mistake in this regard, so Wei Jia is confident.
Compared with the vast territory, three hundred miles is only a small part of it, and it is not a key location, and it is not particularly marked on the general sketch map, so in Zu Que's impression, it is very vague, and he can't make up his mind when he sees the Wei Wei swearing.
After more than half an hour, Pei Rang rushed back, and he got three detailed drawings of different periods.
Wei Jia took it and unfolded it, and there was indeed a discrepancy with what Yajia depicted, and all three were the same.
Wei Jia thought about it, and then circled that place on the sketch and asked Yajia to redraw it.
Since the garrison only circled the area within a radius of thousands of miles, Yajia naturally put the map larger, and the details were more detailed, and even the ups and downs of the mountains and the direction of the water veins were drawn.
After getting the map, Wei Jian studied and discussed with Zu Que and others.
Or Zu Que questioned, in the blank places on the other three maps, there are mountains here, and it is just a matter of mountains appearing, because of the limited capacity nowadays, many maps are blank for inaccessible places, and perhaps this piece of mountains and forests is not reflected in the previous maps.
But this mountain range that has not appeared on other maps is already very special, how can it be accurate to the direction of a few small water veins, you must know that even in the fortress place, many river tributaries are ignored.
If her second senior brother was here, she could ask him face-to-face why he had a soft spot here, but the problem was that even her master couldn't figure out where her second senior brother was now, and she couldn't ask if she wanted to.
Pei Rang, who had been silent, suddenly said: "Hmm...... Where have you seen it?"
The guard standing in front of him to the right turned his head to look at him: "What have you seen?"
Pei Rang stepped forward and stretched out his hand to cover the eye-catching mountain trend: "Look at it this way, if you don't say that this is a stream, just looking at these twisted thin lines, is it a little familiar?"
After what he said, Wei Jian looked at it again, and it was really familiar, but Zu Que and the others said in unison that they were not impressed.
Wei Jian couldn't remember where she had seen similar lines for a while, thinking that since this picture was from her second senior brother, maybe she and Pei Rang had seen it by chance, because it had been too long and impressed, and when she saw it again, she felt familiar, which was also a common thing, so she didn't rack her brains anymore, and there were more important things waiting to be dealt with - the news came back from the "Yangping Eldest Princess Courtyard", and her second uncle came to the door.
Obviously, her stepmother didn't have the face to come to see her, and her second uncle, as her father's younger brother, gave her gifts when they first met, and was biased towards her in public, so she had to save some face for her second uncle, at least she wouldn't refuse him!
But she wasn't in the other courtyard, and her second uncle didn't see her, so naturally she wouldn't leave, and she was still waiting over there.
Regarding whether she wants to save her father, Zu Que and others are very interested, many of them have the will to make contributions, and hide in the world with Wei Zhen, although they can live a rich and comfortable life, but the opportunity is in front of them, as long as they dare to gamble, there is the possibility of a dream coming true, how can they not be excited?
Pei Rang was very calm about this, he would not sway her judgment, he would only wait quietly for her decision, anyway, no matter whether she went or stayed, he would follow her silently.
After she heard about it, she was silent for a long time, and finally sighed, with a look of embarrassment: "Filial piety comes first, the father is in trouble, how can the children stand by and watch, but after all, you are a daughter's family, so go out like this, what can you do about the marriage with the Wang family?"
Although Wei Ji is not interested in marriage now, she is still curious about what conflict there will be between saving her father and getting married.
Listening to her ask, her aunt patiently explained to her that even if people didn't know how to let Yu Jiang send Wei Yi's "son" to save his father, if Wei Yi himself wanted to go on this trip, his daughter's identity would be really inconvenient, and she would definitely have to pretend to be a teenager, once she appeared in front of people as Wei Yi's "son", then when the Wang family came to discuss the family, would they want to discuss Wei Yi or Wei Jia? If she directly shows herself as a daughter, she will mix with a group of men along the way, I am afraid that her reputation will be damaged, so that not only may the Wang family retreat when she hears the news, but I am afraid that even ordinary scholars will not dare to ask for marriage.
Wei Jian then remembered that in his previous life, in order to let her set up a household for the Wei family in such a difficult period, Yu Jiang announced to the public that Huan Xin left a pair of dragon and phoenix fetuses behind him, Wei Jia is a brother, Wei Jia is a sister, and after Sima Run found out her daughter, although she was actually married, it was her sister's name that was uploaded on the genealogy.
This is what my aunt is worried about, she has become her father's "son", if the Wang family still has the will to marry, then they can only discuss Wei Jia, but the real Wei Jia is an idiot, this messy family matter, not to scare people away!
Hearing her aunt's entanglement, Wei Jian felt that this was really good, she was her father's son, and she would never have to worry about her father forcing her to marry from now on!
Just when the aunt silently prayed for the Buddha to show the way, the news came back from the other courtyard, saying that Wei Yong had also come to the door after being instructed by the people of the Wei Mansion.
Hearing Wei Yong's name, not to mention Wei Yong, even Zu Cuo Pei Rang and others also felt strange.
You must know that Wei Yong went with her father at the beginning, and now that her father is missing, if Wei Yong is fine, the first thing to do should be to go to the station to move the rescue soldiers, and the place where her father disappeared is obviously closer to the station, Wei Yong did not go to the station, but killed several horses in a row and rushed back to find her, what is it?
After listening to this, Zu Xuan turned to Wei Ji: "What does Lang Jun want?"
Wei Jian sighed slightly: "Let's go, let's go and see first!"
