The first more ~

It's a little earlier today than yesterday, but it's still not early enough!

⌒⌒⌒

The "Gao Boss" that the coachman respectfully called refers to the person who sits upright, his real name is a 'hidden' word, and his actual identity is not a horseman, but one of the ten generals of the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Although the ranking of the ten generals is not strictly based on the order of individual ability, high potential is an exception. He ranks first among the ten generals, in addition to the first order, his wisdom and martial arts are combined, and he is also the strongest person among the ten generals.

Although the prime minister has not specified anything, in private, the ten families will take Gao Qian as the core of leadership, listen to the prime minister's orders in major matters, and in the implementation process, many details will be discussed with Gao Qian, waiting for him to make a decision. The other generals in the Prime Minister's Mansion and even the miscellaneous servants of the family also have some respect for the high potential in their hearts.

In the incident where the prime minister assigned Gao Qian to escort Cen Chi to the northwest to seek medical treatment, it can also be seen that Xiang Ye attaches great importance to Cen Chi and Gao Qian.

This trip will probably be the further you go, the more slim and dangerous it becomes. Xiang Yewei believes that Gao Qian can be qualified for this trip, and such a dispatch decision not only includes his trust in Gao Qian's loyalty, but also his trust in his ability. And to send others with him, I am afraid that I will be sent to death.

Gao Qian knew that this trip was dangerous and difficult, but this also stimulated his desire to serve Xiangye.

Hearing the coachman's inquiry, although the other party's voice was very respectful and deliberately disguised, Gao Qian could easily hear the impatience contained in his tone, and his reply was just three words calmly and simply: "What's the matter?" ”

Seeing that Gao Qian was not in a hurry at all, but his three carriages were blocked at the gate of the city by the Yan family's convoy, and it was a situation that could be seen when he opened his eyes, and the coachman couldn't help but sigh softly.

He pointed to the long convoy ahead that couldn't be seen moving without looking carefully, and said slowly: "The little one went to the front just now to take a look, and found that although the Yan family's convoy was moving, it was walking too slowly. And the gap between the cars in front of them is already very cheerful. But in the end, the five cars were like wheels on the ground, and they didn't go ahead at all! ”

Gao Qian was silent for a moment and then said, "It's impossible for us to cut in the queue and wait." ”

The coachman seemed to have a plan in his heart, and when he heard this, he immediately opened his mouth and discussed: "This is not like the habit of the Yan family's merchants, could it be that something happened?" Boss Gao, let's go out of the city in a different direction! If the goods transported by the Yan family this time really have any problems, they will be stranded here, and we can't wait with them! ”

"If there is a problem with the goods in the car, the only result can be that the Kyoto Prefecture will send officers and soldiers. All of them were dragged away and kept in custody at the side of the warehouse, instead of continuing to be inspected at the city gate. Gao Qian quickly shook his head. Denying the coachman's speculation, he added: "The Yan family has a huge family business, and the so-called tree is very popular, and our emperor of Nanzhao is a virtuous monarch who attaches great importance to the construction of the law, and the Yan family does not dare to make any commercial activities that violate the ban in the important town of Kyoto no matter what." ”

After a moment of silence. Gao Qian denied the coachman's construction again, and said lightly: "The north gate has always been slightly negligent in freight than the other three gates, and the west gate is the most congested, and because the sea is about to be shipped, the east gate should be blocked now, I don't think there are other doors to go." No need to mention the South Gate. I was asked to go around the inner city for such a big circle, and then go around from south to north after leaving the city, and so on. It's better to wait a little longer. ”

Although Gao Qian had not moved, he had already sorted out his thoughts in his mind and came up with a moderate countermeasure, and the coachman heard his narrow-mindedness from Gao Qian's words, and he couldn't help but look ashamed, and he didn't build anything without permission.

When there is silence. The coachman listened to Gao Qian and said, "It's noon, I don't know how long I have to wait." Mr. Cen in the car is still sick and can't accompany us to work so dry, you go buy some food first, you need to be hot. ”

The groom took the silver handed over by Gao Qian, and asked casually, "I wonder if you and that gentleman are particular about eating?" ”

Gao Qianyan seemed to remember something, and turned around and stretched out his hand to lift the curtain of the carriage door. But as soon as his hand reached mid-air and was about to touch the edge of the curtain, he hesitated again. Eventually, he gave up doing so, jumped out of the carriage, and headed for the car behind.

In the third car, a doctor on the same road was placed, and Xiang Ye spent a lot of money to buy the medical hall he was willing to leave and go all the way to the northwest, so that he could take care of Cen Chi on the road.

Gao Qian inquired about the healer, and had an idea in his heart, so he came back and told the groom who was going to buy food what to buy.

The groom trotted all the way away, and the high dive sat back in the carriage to drive. Although he had slowed down with great care, the carriage leaned forward slightly.

In the car, there was a slight sigh.

Gao Qian's mood moved slightly, and he whispered to the people inside through the car curtain: "Did you disturb Mr. below?" ”

Xiangye once asked Cen Chi to be the Xixi of Shi Sangongzi for a period of time, although Cen Chi did not fulfill his duties for the appointment of this Mr. Xixi, but the honorary status given to him by Xiangye, no one in the Xiangfu dared to despise it.

Gao Qian's age is a few years older than Cen Chi, but because Cen Chi has this important encounter in the past, plus he himself has never been arrogant and arrogant in treating people, most of the servants in the palace have respect for him because of this, so even the members of the ten generals are infected by love and are willing to call him 'sir'.

"Actually, I woke up a long time ago." The person in the car took a breath and said, "I didn't move because I didn't want to move." ”

Gao Qian lifted the corner of the curtain and saw a tired Cen Chi sitting in a corner of the car.

After he was hit by that kind of chronic poison, although he would not die immediately, but after only a few days of work, his whole person suddenly became emaciated, and a circle of bruises appeared under his eyes, which was a phenomenon of disordered qi luck in his internal organs.

According to the doctor, people who have been hit by that kind of slow poison will first feel weak and drowsy, and their bodies will feel paralyzed intermittently, as if the blood is stagnant.

Gao Qian is a person who practices martial arts, and he knows very well what the paralyzing feeling of stagnant qi and blood is like, he looked at Cen Chi's appearance of struggling to even gasp, and couldn't help but feel some sympathy, and said gently: "Mr. needs to rest more." ”

But Cen Chi saw Gao Qian lift the curtain and his eyes touched a touch of sunlight outside the car, he squinted at first, and then got used to it. He crawled towards the door.

No matter how long you rest, you won't be able to regain your strength when you're healthy!

Cen Chi climbed to the door, as if he had climbed a mountain, and gasped for a while, but his body was not like the person who had just climbed the mountain, and he looked like he was sweating.

Gao Qian looked at him like this, a little worried and didn't know what to say.

Cen Chi took a breath, looked around, and then said softly, "Why is the carriage still parked here?" I remember that when I had just fallen asleep, our carriage was almost at the gates of the city. ”

"Ahead is the Yan family caravan. It may be that the inspection steps are complicated, which slows down the speed of leaving the city. Gao Qianwen said: "Originally, I had plans to go out at another city gate, but I don't know what the situation of the other gates is. The inner city is too strict with horse restrictions. Mr. is unwell, and I can't bear to take you back and forth. ”

Cen Chi didn't seem to care about this problem, but just said casually: "You are doing this and waiting, don't you find something to do?" ”

"Looking for something to do?" Gao Qian was puzzled. He really couldn't think of what else he could find to do at this time. It's good to be able to wait patiently.

Cen Chi sighed and said, "If you have time, get me a cane." ”

Gao Qian was stunned when he heard this, he didn't immediately understand the meaning of Cen Chi's words, but after he understood, he couldn't help but sink his eyes. Then he said with a very serious expression: "Sir, I will definitely take you to find a good doctor." ”

Cen Chi smiled reluctantly and said, "I know you will not live up to Shi Gong's expectations. But for now, it seems that I do need a cane. After he said this, he turned his gaze to the convoy of the Yan family in front of him.

Gao Qian hesitated for a moment, and finally agreed with Cen Chi's statement, and his tone eased slightly. Said: "Then you can do it when it's free." ”

Cen Chi said casually: "Don't worry, just break the roots and branches on the road." Yes, too. With that, he withdrew his gaze from the distant convoy and fell into a thoughtful silence.

Seeing this, Gao Qian also looked forward, looked at it twice, then withdrew his gaze to look at Cen Chi, and asked softly, "What is Mr. thinking?" While he was asking Cen Chi, he was also asking himself in his heart: Is it really as the coachman said just now, what is wrong in the Yan family's caravan?

Cen Chi's eyes raised slightly, noticing the hint of vigilance in Gao Qian's eyes, and hurriedly waved his hand, "It's nothing, the Yan family seems to be waiting for someone, and there is a vacant road in the convoy, and there is not much movement." ”

After being reminded by his words, Gao Qian, who was thinking about the coachman's words just now, seemed to be a little uncontrollable, and his voice raised slightly, "How can this be." If that's the case, they should give way and let our people who are out of town in a hurry go first. ”

"Wait a little longer."

In the same way, Gao Qian said to the coachman just now, but now it is Gao Qian who is relieved by Cen Chi to arouse his feelings.

But at this time, Gao Qian was like the driver who was depressed and anxious just now, and he couldn't listen to persuasion.

He didn't let go of Cen Chi's persuasion, but couldn't help but say again: "I don't want to put up with it anymore if I delay for such a boring thing." If they miss the time and can't make it to the next post station this evening, their Yan family doesn't mind sleeping in the open, but how can Mr. accompany them? ”

Cen Chi saw that Gao Qian seemed to have the intention of going to the front convoy to theorize, so he hurriedly grabbed him and dissuaded: "I'm just guessing, maybe someone else really has something, and they don't necessarily say it's ......."

As soon as he said this, something suddenly changed in the convoy ahead.

I heard a person's voice coming from the convoy, with a loud timbre and full of energy, and said in a loud voice: "Yan Jiuzi, go ahead." ”

After a slight pause, the voice said, "Yan Cross, go forward two times." ”

The tone of the voice seemed to give a command. Suddenly, there was a carriage in the middle of the convoy moving slowly, but the carriages at the front and rear ends were still firmly parked in place.

The voice then called out the name of "Yan Eleven Characters, Twelve Characters", and gave orders to move forward.

In the entire convoy of the Yan Family Commercial Bank, only a few carriages in the middle were slowly moving with the order being issued, and the positions of the vehicles in front and behind did not change, but a long distance of open space had been vacated in the middle.

For the Yan family, who is long in land business, the General Chamber of Commerce has formulated a set of passwords for the exclusive Yan family caravan in the early years, and other land merchants have begun to imitate it in recent years, but most of them cannot abide by the Yan family caravan and standardize.

The number in the password represents the individual serial number of the vehicles in the convoy, but if there is a caravan in front and behind, it is necessary to shout the abbreviation of the chamber of commerce before the number serial number to warn.

At this time, in the open space inside the North City Gate, there was only the convoy of the Yan family's Chamber of Commerce, but despite this, the number of the Chamber of Commerce in front of the number sequence was not omitted. No matter what the situation, when the commander of the Yan family caravan guided the convoy to march, the commands shouted were standardized and consistent, and would not be changed in the slightest.

As for the word 'que' in the password, it is a measure of distance that is exclusive to the Yan family's business activities, and the Yan family's one ring refers to the length of a parking space for the Yan family's commercial vehicle.
