"Are you Brother Mu? It's really good, the lord has eaten the pills you prepared, and his body has been much more comfortable in the past two days, and I want to thank you in person! Please come with me in the car. Standing at the gate of the courtyard and waiting for the local officials to listen to Wei Bi's introduction, he immediately smiled and said to Shang Yu.

Shang Yu clenched his fists slightly, smiled and said, "Don't dare!" There is a Lady Laoyacha. "The so-called nourishing and moving the body, during the period of being in charge in Quanzhou, although he did not experience much time, the people he came into contact with were all people in the business field, and the etiquette and polite words came when he opened his mouth, and the momentum of his speech did not look like a subordinate person at all.

He has also dealt with the people in the government many times in the city, although the status of this official in front of him is not high, but when he heard Shang Yu's word "adult", he was overjoyed, and when he saw the momentum of Shang Yu's words, he said in his heart: "Sure enough, he is a local attendant from a big family, and his momentum is much stronger than that of the master." ”

immediately stepped forward to open the car door and said, "Brother Mu really deserves to be the son of a big family, please!" After speaking, he motioned for Shang Yu to get into the car.

Shang Yu nodded slightly, turned around and waved his hand to Wei Bi and Wei Mo, who were standing at the gate of the courtyard, and winked at Wei Bi, and said, "Brother Wei Bi, you and your mother-in-law should go back!" If the pheasant soup is cold, it won't taste good. After speaking, he got into the car without looking back.

"Mrs. Wei, you have won the silver reward of the lord for nothing this time, I'm afraid you don't have to pick herbs for a year. Gone, coachman! After waiting for Shang Yu to enter the car, the official flew on his horse, smiled and said to Wei Moshi, and then urged the coachman to drive on the road.

After watching the carriage and the officials next to him gallop away, Wei Bi followed Wei Moshi back into the room and told Shang Yu what he said.

"It turns out that this little brother Mu is actually the little steward of the Lu family's firm, he is a very famous young steward in Quanzhou Mansion, and even the steward of Yongchuan Pharmacy admires him quite a lot, I didn't expect us to save this person, but it's a pity that he entered the county seat for us! Son, he said that there is a way to get out, is this serious? After listening to his grandson's words, Wei Moshi couldn't help but ask with some concern.

"Grandma, it's true! He advised us to leave the village immediately, otherwise after he left Yongchuan halfway, the officials would inevitably become suspicious, and if they knew the identity of Brother Shang, they would come to arrest us. Wei Bi replied immediately, and his little face was also a little pale.

Ever since he knew Shang Yudi's identity and listened to him talk about the Yuan soldiers' slaughter of villages and the plundering of Quanzhou volunteers, Wei Bi remembered that there were 500 households in the village when he was a child, but now only one-fifth of them are left, which is due to years of forced conscription and heavy taxes, and at this time, many places in the Central Plains had rebels to divide the cities. Thinking of this, he looked at Wei Moshi expectantly.

"Oh, without further ado! Let's go immediately, you also have a distant cousin in Chuzhou, who is my nephew, he is also a medicine picker, and we will go to him along the way! Grandma has twenty taels of silver in her hand, enough for us on the road! Wei Moshi said immediately, a look of fear flashing in his eyes.

Although she had saved Shang Yu's life and cared about Shang Yu very much, the current situation was not something that their grandparents and grandchildren could face.

"Grandma, I also stewed a pot of pheasant soup in the pot! It's never too late to leave after you've drunk, right? Wei Bi suddenly remembered the pheasant stewed in the pot, and couldn't help but say with some pity.

"Still drinking soup? Go pack up your clothes and take that chicken out of the pot and eat it on the road! We must leave the village as soon as possible, and follow the mountain road that my grandmother used to take to collect medicine, so that the officers and soldiers will not be able to catch up with us. Wei Moshi glared at Wei Bi with some reproach and said.

Ten miles of road, the carriage only took less than half an hour to enter the Yongchuan county, this county is the current Yuan court to guard against the Quanzhou volunteers of the city, the city has 5,000 elite soldiers, compared to the 60,000 civilians in the city, the proportion is indeed more.

In the city, the archway of building in the Southern Song Dynasty abounds, there are dozens of inscriptions on it, Yongchuan is famous for producing high-quality glutinous rice wine, at this time Shang Yu lifted the curtain of the car and looked out, behind the archway on the street is a winery, a burst of wine aroma came, that is, Shang Yu will not drink and want to drink a little.

I couldn't help but think of the fact that Shen Fu and Zhang Shicheng and others were drinking in the Wanguo Building that day, and I couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion, Shen Fu returned to Suzhou Zhouzhuang in a bad mood and took away his book, which always made him unhappy.

But Shen Fu's talent is indeed not ordinary, and that Zhang Shicheng is very famous, and he is also very bold, this time Shang Yu also has the task of exploring Zhang Shicheng, but at this time, the Lu family has been divided and merged by the Yuan Court and the Quanzhou volunteers, and it is no longer meaningful to do that at this time.

And Shang Yu went to Zhouzhuang to find Lu Wan, and then went to Yangzhou, the wax pill Shang Yu had already opened it and recorded its contents, since the Lu family business had been Yuan Court and the volunteers? And, even if Lu Shaobei is still alive, he also has to go to Yangzhou to find out how huge the business alliance is, and how to make the world become the world of the Han people in the Central Plains again.

After lowering the car curtains, Shang Yu couldn't help but sigh lightly.

I thought to myself: "I don't know if my mother has arrived at Beicang Port!" Will there be danger in Beicang? Thinking of this, Shang Yu was a little worried about his mother in his heart.

"Has the master arrived on Jining Road again? Where are you with Daddy now? When Shang Yu thought of this, he hated to be able to incarnate several, and he could grow wings to fly to Beicang, Jining Road and Zhouzhuang.

Although he was anxious, Shang Yu gradually regained his mind after a while, and said in his heart: "If you pass through Yongchuan, you can go directly to Hangzhou Mansion through the first-line official roads of Dehua and Jianyang, and only after getting on the boat from there can you go to Xiaowan, where the situation is chaotic, and it is okay to go to Yangzhou from there, but if you want to go to Beicang, you have to go through Zhang Shicheng's Taizhou!" ”

"Master Lu once said, stay calm at all times! I must not panic, I must get through this hurdle. "If you can gain the trust of this county government in front of you, you can get a guide and a new identity.

As far as he knows, the Mu clan is very powerful in most of the capital, with hundreds of people, and this Mu surnamed Gongzi happened to have a few days ago in Quanzhou, and he is also a very knowledgeable person, that person is in Quanzhou Baoqi Street Shang Yu acquaintance, but Shang Yu has returned to the north by sea by boat half a month before he set off from Quanzhou, if he pretends to be his attendant is still a very ideal choice, and there are many attendants of large households, in order to facilitate control, as a large household attendant will basically not have a separate road guide when traveling with the master, This is also an excellent excuse for Shang Yu.

"Now I can only take one gamble! If you can get through the tricks and get the guide to the north, it's better to go north quickly than to pretend to be a beggar without identity. ”

Shang Yu thought of this, and his heart was much calmer, in fact, if there was no guide, after he tore his clothes and soiled his shoes, he could pretend to be a beggar and go north, but it would take time for several months, and he still decided not to run away halfway, but to get the approval of the county government.

In a short time the carriage stopped, and the horses in front of them neighed softly, and it was nearly noon, and even the horses were a little tired and thirsty.

"Brother Mu! Please get out of the car and I'll take you to see the master. After the door was opened, the official said with some respect.

Shang Yu gave him an excellent impression in Weijia Village, and the tone of his voice did not look like a subordinate at all, this official was just a servant in a county, the so-called seven-rank official under the prime minister, just by virtue of Shang Yu's momentum, he was convinced that Shang Yu was indeed the attendant of the nobles of the Semu people.

Shang Yu nodded, said that he was tired, and then got out of the car and walked forward with the servants.

Looking up, this should be the back door of a house, but this house is too big, beautifully repaired, all the same color of blue brick walls, and the top of the wall is also paved with pale yellow glazed tiles, and it looks relatively new, this house looks like it should have been repaired in the last two years.

After entering the courtyard, Shang Yu was even more surprised, the courtyard was actually a small garden, although it was winter, but all kinds of flowers were still blooming, and he felt that the courtyard was obviously much warmer than the outside, which made him feel a little sweaty.

There is also a pond in the courtyard, there are no fish in the pond, but there is a faint smell of sulfur in the water, Shang Yu suddenly said in his heart: "It turns out that there is a hot spring under the ground of this house, no wonder it is so warm in this back garden!" ”

In the pond, there is a zigzag stone bridge, and in the center of the stone bridge is a stone pavilion, Shang Yu was led to the front and back of the stone pavilion by this officer, and the official motioned him to wait.

After the official walked into the stone pavilion, he immediately knelt on the ground and said, "Master! Brother Namu has been invited. ”

Shang Yu was more than ten steps away, only to see a huge figure wearing a seven-grade official uniform sitting on a comfortable Xuanzhu chair with his back to him, and said in his heart: "Just look at this pavilion, which is made of high-grade marble, and the tables and chairs placed in the pavilion are also made of the finest Xuanzhu in central Sichuan, and the life of this county lord is too luxurious!" Even if there is no such luxury in the Lu Mansion, how can the Qipin County Order have so much silver taels to build such a mansion? ”

I saw that the man's body trembled slightly, and I heard him make a majestic voice: "Oh! Please? Then don't you come up quickly, how can people be slow to treat your guests, where is it? With that, his body slowly turned and his head turned around.

"Brother Namu is here! Brother Mu, please enter the pavilion. The official immediately stood up and beckoned to Shang Yu.

After Shang Yu saw the official's face, he almost laughed, and he could only forcibly move his steps to the pavilion, after all, it was the heart of a young man, and the worries and worries that existed in his heart were immediately shocked by the appearance of this seven-rank county commander.

"I've seen the county master!" Shang Yu bent down and bowed to Gribu Subalcher.

"Excuse me! Sit down, I've got something to ask for. The Qipin County Commander shook the fat in his hand and motioned for Shang Yu to sit down at the table, and then turned his face to the official and said, "Why don't you go and order the wine and food?" ”

"Yes! Master, I'll give you the order right away. The official immediately departed.
