Chapter 138: Collision
Mrs. Hu's eyes swirled on the faces of Xiao Chili and Narcissus, turned her back to Xiao Chili, and said to Narcissus with a smile: "The tired girl sent it so far, it's only a few steps away from the door, so don't send it to the girl, just go out by yourself." β
Narcissus did have something in his heart, nodded and said with a smile: "Mother Hu walked slowly." β
When Hu Pozi walked away, Narcissus looked at Xiao Chili carefully a few times and said, "What's wrong with you?" I didn't see the medicine I caught, and I still look like this to see Miss, did I really forget the rules of our Qiuhua Academy? β
Xiao Pepper snatched the recipe from Xia Lian's hand, ran back to Ci'an Pharmacy, learned about Zhang Xing from Wang Bingyi, and hurried back, just to ask Gu Xiyun for help. The matter of taking prescriptions and taking medicine has long been forgotten by her.
She didn't listen to Qing Shui Xian's words at all, and still asked, "Sister Shui Xian, is the eldest lady still in the Durian Fragrance Courtyard?" β
Narcissus looked at Pepper, shook his head, and said, "I'm back early." β
After hearing this, Xiao Pepper's face was relieved with an anxious expression, and he let go of the narcissus and trotted towards Qiuhuayuan. Narcissus shouted but didn't respond, and couldn't help but shake her head in a low voice and said to herself: "This girl, after so many years, she is really going back more and more." After saying that, she hurriedly followed.
When he arrived at Qiuhua Courtyard, Narcissus saw Xiao Pepper kneeling in front of the eldest lady, her eyes were red, and she kowtowed and said: "Eldest Miss, my sister's surname is Zhang and not Wei, this Wei family's affairs have nothing to do with her, and now that she has been sent to prison, this matter must be a misjudgment." Ask the eldest lady to help save her. β
Narcissus was shocked, glanced at Gu Xiyun's expressionless face, and immediately came over to pull the little pepper up. He said, "You're so dizzy! How do you bring things out to our yard? β
Pepper is straightforward though. In the end, he stayed in the backyard of the prince's mansion for many years. Knowing that things outside the Dao cannot be transmitted into the inner courtyard. But she also knew that the eldest lady was not an ordinary boudoir, and she followed the princess's housekeeper a few years ago, and the shop Zhuangzi outside was also impressive.
She is just a little girl in the backyard of Huaiyang Palace, how can she save her sister Zhang Xing out? Only when the Huaiyang Mansion came forward in this matter could there be a glimmer of life.
Pepper was reprimanded by Narcissus, but she was still unrepentant, broke away from Narcissus, and kowtowed. With a crying voice, he said, "Miss, please save my sister." β
Narcissus couldn't pull Pepper, and was thinking about calling another person in and dragging her out of the coffin. Gu Xiyun stopped her, sighed, and said to Xiao Pepper: "Okay, don't knock, really think you're a papier-mΓ’chΓ©?" β
Little Pepper knelt straight and looked at Gu Xiyun with tears in her eyes.
Gu Xiyun shook his head and said, "Little Pepper." I know that you have a deep sisterhood, and you can enter the Chengde Hou Mansion and my Qiuhua Courtyard. It's also because of your sister. However, not to mention whether your sister is wronged or not, I can't help you. β
"Miss......" As soon as Xiao Pepper heard Gu Xiyun say this, tears flowed down.
"Listen to me." Gu Xiyun looked at Xiao Pepper and asked, "Although I have been in charge of the palace with the princess for a few days, I still know very little about things outside, according to my current identity, do you think I can interfere in the decisions of the lords of the county and county?" Besides, you also said that your sister's matter involves rebellion. This is a great crime that will kill the head. Don't say it's me in this matter, I'm afraid that the prince will come forward, and it won't help. β
Little Pepper was stunned by Gu Xiyun's words. She is just the existence of Huaiyang Palace, but there are not so many.
Narcissus hurriedly pulled up the little pepper and frowned and reprimanded her: "It's only this time, next time, if you ask the outside to come to the eldest lady again, you can go to Mama Wu to get the board yourself." You are really becoming more and more ignorant, who can interfere in this matter of rebellion? Even if you ask for the Golden Luan Palace, it will be useless. β
Xiao Pepper looked at Gu Xiyun in a daze, tears flowed, and suddenly knelt down again, crying and said, "Please give me a grace and allow me a few days off." β
Gu Xi Yunhai looked at her, supported his forehead, and said to Narcissus: "You go to the autumn steward, and let him point someone to go with Xiao Pepper." β
Xiao Pepper saw that Gu Xiyun not only approved the leave, but also sent someone to go with her, so she knew that she was helping her in a different way. With the golden signboard of Huaiyang Palace, even if Zhang Xing cannot be rescued, it is much more convenient to do other things.
Little Pepper hurriedly kowtowed in thanks.
Narcissus watched Pepper walk away before returning. Gu Xiyun leaned on the couch and looked out the window. At this time, the autumn cold was getting heavier, and Narcissus hurriedly took a thin quilt and put it on Gu Xiyun.
Gu Xiyun turned his head and said, "You go to Steward Qiu to explain, let him point a clever person to follow, by the way, if there is anything, it is best to talk to Steward Hu." β
Narcissus answered and exited the room.
Pepper returned to her room, packed all the valuable items with her baggage, and went to the outer courtyard to find Steward Qiu. The autumn steward had already been instructed, and the men and carriages were ready, and when he saw Little Pepper coming, he stood up and said, "The girl comes with me, the narcissus girl has already ordered, and the carriage has been set." β
He led Little Pepper out of the side door, and a young man in his twenties who was talking to the coachman next to the carriage saw them, hurriedly came over, said hello to Steward Qiu, and glanced at Little Pepper.
Steward Qiu pointed at him and said to Xiao Pepper: "This is Liu Shunyu, he is the most clever in the stable." β
Liu Shunyu immediately greeted with a smile: "Is the girl going to Zhanghe Town in Yu County?" I've been to this place many times, and it's a distant cousin of mine. β
Little Pepper's eyes lit up when she heard this, and she couldn't help but say, "Really? That's great. β
Liu Shunyu smiled again and said: "I am also stained with the girl's light, and when I see my uncle, if the girl has anything, just tell me." β
Steward Qiu patted Liu Shunyu on the shoulder and said, "Let's talk about it on the road, now you can catch the last boat from the dock to Yuxian, if it is later, you won't be able to catch up." β
Pepper hurriedly climbed into the carriage. The smile on Liu Shunyu's face was taken away at once, and the Chongqiu steward nodded, and set off with the carriage.
When they arrived at the dock, they saw that there were few boats left on the dock, and the captains were shouting and urging the guests to hurry on.
As soon as the waist card of Huaiyang Wangfu came out, the boat boss came over in person, nodded and greeted them straight to the small private room on the ship.
The crew on board was all on board, and the captains shouted and several poles slid and started in unison, and the boat gradually left the shore. Xiao Pepper grew up by the Huaishui River, and her father is also the captain on the Huaishui River, so it is common for her to take a boat.
She was fidgeting in the cabin when suddenly the ship shook violently, as if it had hit something, and nearly knocked her to the ground. Pepper grabbed the pillar before he steadied.
The boat coming and going to Huaiyang in Yuxian County is not a small boat, it has only left Huaiyang for a short time, and it should not have reached the dangerous beach, how can there be such a big shock?
Little Pepper's heart couldn't help but pass over the capsizing incident she had experienced.
She hurried out of the cabin, only to see a two-story ship grazing their hull like an arrow from a string, speeding towards the shore.
The men who supported the pole here scolded one after another.
"How can anyone run a boat like this? You don't have long eyes, do you? β
"That's it, I almost collided, and we turned fast."
And the ship, as if it had not heard at all, was so fast that the clothes of the man standing at the bow of the boat flew up.
Liu Shunyu's cabin was next door to Xiao Chili, such a big bump, he also came out, pointed to the person standing at the bow of the boat who passed by, and said, "Hey, isn't that Ye Xinchen next to the prince?" β
Little Pepper has been in Huaiyang Wangfu for two or three years, and has always been in Qiuhua Courtyard. The prince of Huaiyang Wangfu has long moved out of the backyard, and rarely comes to the backyard, even if he comes to the backyard, he also goes to the old princess's durian courtyard. Therefore, although she is the name of the prince of Huaiyang Palace, she rarely sees the face of the prince, let alone the people who serve the prince.
"Hey, didn't this kid just go back to Yu County? How did you get back so quickly? Liu Shunyu said to himself.
Xiao Pepper only has the matter of her sister Zhang Xing in her mind now, and she doesn't have the heart to pay attention to the affairs of the entourage around the prince. Seeing that the ship was far away, and that her own ship was stable, she turned around and went back to her cabin.
After three days of sailing, they arrived at the town of Zhanghe. As soon as Pepper got the boat, he went straight to the town jail, but was stopped at the door.
The head of the guard said, "People from the Wei family? What you're looking for is Wei Yunhai's family in Weijiazhuang, right? β
Little Pepper nodded hurriedly, took out some broken silver, and said, "Uncle Troublesome is convenient, let us go in and take a look." β
The cell boss took the broken silver, bit it with his teeth, and the smile on his face was immediately piled up, and while carrying it into his arms, he said, "You guys are late, they have already transferred to Yuxian." β
Pepper was stunned.
Liu Shunyu coughed lightly and took out the waist card. The cell boss took a look. He recognized the waist card of Huaiyang Palace, and then his face changed suddenly, and he just bent his waist into a shrimp, and said respectfully while touching the things he was carrying in his arms: "Miss, forgive me, it turns out that you two are from Huaiyang Palace, and I am clumsy." β
Xiao Pepper only wanted to know about Lu Daozhang Xing, and asked, "When did they transfer to Yu County?" β
The cell boss said, "It was turned yesterday." β
Liu Shunyu took the broken silver that the cell boss respectfully handed over, and his face was still not good-looking. The cell boss hurriedly took out the money bag again, and put his hands in front of Liu Shunyu. Liu Shunyu's face improved slightly, accepted it, and asked, "Which way are you going in the main mansion?" β
"Go all the way down this street, and there are two big stone lions at the door." The cell boss said with a licking smile.
Liu Shunyu pulled Xiao Pepper aside and said in a low voice: "Girl, it's getting late now, why don't we stay here for one night, and then rush to Yuxian tomorrow." β
Little Pepper looked up at the sky, shook it, and said categorically, "No, I'll go today." β
Liu Shun was stunned for a moment, and was about to say more.
Pepper had already walked away briskly.
Liu Shunyu has already figured out Xiao Pepper's temper along the way, and knows that although this girl is young, she is stubborn, and whenever she makes a decision, she will go to the dark.
He didn't say much, and hurriedly followed. I chartered a carriage at the gate of Zhanghe Town and rushed to Yuxian. (To be continued......)
