Chapter 101: To the Northern Frontier
After arriving at Cheng's house, there will be a special person to check the authenticity, and then take out the letter inside and send it to the place where it should be delivered.
The person in charge of checking the wooden bird took out the letter inside, identified the authenticity, and made sure that the letter was written by the head of the house, and then sent the thing to the wooden pen pavilion.
After Chu Cheng got the letter, he read the contents of the letter and said, "Go and find Cheng Zhao and Yunmo." β
Jiang Heyuan and Mubi Pavilion were closer, so after a while, Cheng Yunmo came in and said, "Mother, are you looking for me?" β
"Sit down first, wait for your uncle."
After Cheng Zhao received the notice, he hurried over without a moment's delay.
His sister-in-law knew that he had been working hard lately, so she never sent anyone to disturb him.
If you invite him over for dinner, the person who goes will definitely make it clear.
However, the person at the moment said vaguely and asked him to come over to discuss the matter, and something big must have happened.
When Cheng Zhao hurried to the Mubi Pavilion, Chu Cheng had already sent out all the people who shouldn't be there.
There were only three of them left in the entire hall.
This confirmed his thoughts even more, and Cheng Zhao saluted: "Sister-in-law." β
"Here, sit down."
After everyone arrived, Chu Cheng took out the letter he had just received.
"Look at it."
"Send Wood Guard to the North?" Cheng Yunmo couldn't help but read it out loud, and then asked, "Have our people checked it?" Did Daddy write it? β
"After checking, your father was worried that the inspection side would not pay attention to it, so he deliberately used the most conspicuous wooden bird to deliver the news."
The wooden birds of the Cheng family are not all the same, and there are many private things in the letters exchanged.
Therefore, there are two types of letters: those that are allowed to be inspected and those that fly directly to the recipient's destination.
If the inspection is not allowed, then the inspection will naturally not be received.
If Cheng Ji sent a letter from home, he would naturally not go to the side responsible for checking the authenticity.
The Cheng family has always attached great importance to privacy, and it is a family that has been cultivating privacy since childhood.
So, once it's past the inspection, it must be a big deal.
"I'm afraid something has happened in Northern Xinjiang." Cheng Zhaodao.
"Emperor Ping died, Beidi is bound to seize this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Moreover, the royal family has never liked my Cheng family, but now my father is in northern Xinjiang, but he even wants the Cheng family's wooden guard. β
"Daddy is not unaware of the importance of the Cheng family to the Cheng family, but he still wrote to ask for it, thinking that this is a corner."
"Mother, I ask to go to the northern Xinjiang."
"I'll go, sister-in-law. Northern Xinjiang is not peaceful at the moment, and Mo'er is gone, I am afraid that it will be dangerous. Cheng Zhao said.
"Nope." Cheng Yunmo refused without thinking about it.
"This time I went to Northern Xinjiang to take the Cheng family's wooden guards away, if the royal family knew about this, they might not be embarrassed by the Cheng family, second uncle, you have to stay here to help your mother."
"Then Mo'er, you can run, you pack up today, and you will leave tomorrow." Chu Cheng said with a hammer.
"Why didn't the queen mother send troops to northern Xinjiang? No one is even allowed to send grain and grass? Min Fenglan broke into Shou'an Palace and said very angrily.
The palace people who didn't stop Min Fenglan instantly knelt on the ground and pleaded: "The slave is a capital crime." β
Sui Ya waved her hand and let the palace people who had let Min Fenglan come in out.
"Your Majesty, does this have an opinion on the mourning family?" Sui Ya said lazily.
"Queen Mother, if the Northern Xinjiang City is breached, it will be tens of thousands of lives, and the consequences will be unimaginable!"
"So what?" Sui Ya said coldly.
"Queen Mother!"
"It is their honor to be able to die for the Min Dynasty." Sui Ya said indifferently.
She walked in front of Min Fenglan, as if she was looking at a stranger: "If you are tired of sitting in this position now, you can do it again today." β
"If there is a next time, I can't guarantee that you will walk out of here unharmed."
Sui Ya finished speaking to herself, and then shouted loudly: "Come on, send the emperor back." β
Two people came in between the words, and Min Fenglan said with a blushing face: "Don't touch me, I will leave by myself." β
Sui Ya sighed lightly and sneered: "I don't know how Min Yan raised him, he actually raised people as naΓ―ve as him." β
"Do you think Cheng Ji doesn't have enough manpower, what will he do?" Sui Ya asked lightly, but the hall was empty.
"The subordinates guess that they may write back to the Cheng family, the Cheng family has the background, and the head of the Cheng family will never give up the northern Xinjiang." A voice came from around the corner.
"I heard that Cheng Ji sent a letter to Cheng's house?"
"Someone saw a pigeon flying out of the carriage that Cheng Ji was riding, and it was thought to be the wooden pigeon used by the Cheng family to carry messages."
"That's it."
"Monitor the movements of the Cheng family well, this time I want Cheng Ji to go and not return!"
"Yes."
Cheng Yunmo quickly packed her luggage, put on her mask, took the folding fan she used well, and after packing everything, she raised her legs and was about to leave Jiang Heyuan.
collided with the oncoming Chu Cheng.
"Mother."
"Just leave?"
"I'm worried about my father, and I want to go early and come back early." Cheng Yunmo said.
"You have to be careful on the road, do you know?" Chu Cheng said very worriedly.
"Mo'er knows, Mo'er will definitely protect herself." Cheng Yunmo assured with a smile.
Chu Cheng held her in his arms: "My mother's Mo'er has grown up, and my mother is waiting for Mo'er to come back safely at home." β
"Okay." Cheng Yunmo knew that she was not at ease, so she stayed in Chu Cheng's arms very obediently as if she was appeased.
He repeated again: "Mother, don't worry, I'm just going to send Wood Guard to Daddy, and nothing will happen." β
After saying goodbye to Chu Cheng, he was afraid that there would be too many people to talk about, so he leaked the news.
Cheng Yunmo quietly left Cheng's house, took Mu Wei, and went all the way north.
Southern Xinjiang and Northern Xinjiang are far apart, if you don't keep hurrying, when Cheng Yunmo arrives with Wood Wei, it is estimated that the daylilies will be cold.
Cheng Yunmo didn't dare to stop for a moment, she took a small road and cut corners, as long as she could save time, she used all the methods, except for feeding food and water, the rest of the time never stopped.
In this way, after more than half a month of wind and rain, it can be regarded as a shadow of the Northern Xinjiang City.
Fortunately, Cheng's Trojan horse doesn't need to rest, and Cheng's wooden guard doesn't need to rest.
Otherwise, with Cheng Yunmo's method of hurrying, I am afraid that before he arrives in the northern Xinjiang, he will have to die on the road.
Cheng Yunmo sat in the carriage and took a cursory look at the style of Northern Xinjiang City, and found that there were no other abnormalities except for fewer people on the street.
There are still stalls and pedestrians coming and going on the streets.
Cheng Yunmo got out of the carriage and went to the tea shop to buy a cup of tea, and said while drinking: "Uncle, do you know where the garrison camp of the Northern Xinjiang Army is?" β
"It's five miles straight ahead from here."
"The girl is from out of town?"
"Yes? Didn't you say that the Northern Xinjiang City was in full swing? I don't think this northern city looks like it! β
"This is also thanks to the Cheng family master and soldiers, if they weren't afraid of life and death to defend the northern frontier, this northern frontier city would have been broken a long time ago, where is there now." The old man said with gratitude.
"That's thanks to the soldiers and military advisors of Northern Xinjiang City." Cheng Yunmo smiled and took a sip of tea and said, "Thank you to them for allowing me to see the style of Northern Xinjiang, instead of imagining it by relying on the previous records." β
I also thank them for their perseverance, so that she is not too late.
The old man seemed to have opened the conversation: "Speaking of which, now we can do business and make a living with peace of mind, not only thanks to the soldiers in Northern Xinjiang, but also thanks to Lord Jingmu beside Cheng Junshi." β
"Lord Jingmu?" Cheng Yunmo was a little puzzled, why didn't she know when there was an extra person like this by her father's side?
And the name is exceptionally familiar.
I just can't remember where I've heard it.
"Lord Jingmu is the son of the Dingbei Hou Mansion."
She remembered that Jing Mu, the second son of the Hou Mansion of Dingbei, was the third and first, which can be said to be rare in the Min Dynasty since the establishment of the dynasty.
She had deliberately read Jing Mu's article before, and the content was really good.
The words are not bad, either.
is worthy of being touted on the market, Jinglang's words, but thousands of dollars can be sought.
Although this Jing Mu was born in the imperial capital, after all, he grew up in southern Xinjiang, and it is normal for him to come to northern Xinjiang after joining the office.
It's just why did she follow her father?
And it's not that the first emperor favored him, but it was a hurdle for all the scholars who entered the imperial examination.
Go to Hallym Temple.
He didn't go either, but went straight to the sixth.
Since Emperor Ping has decided to put him in the imperial capital, why does he still appear in the northern frontier?
Cheng Yunmo suppressed the doubts in his heart, drank the last sip of tea in the bowl, paid and said, "Thank you, uncle, for informing me." β
Cheng Yunmo walked five miles forward according to the old man's words, and sure enough, he saw the barracks.
However, the current martial law in the military camp is not something that outsiders like her can enter.
"Who's coming?" Cheng Yunmo appeared here, and she was a girl, which was very attention-grabbing.
"The Cheng family." Cheng Yunmo took out his waist card and proved his identity: "I am Cheng Yunmo, I want to see Cheng Junshi." β
As soon as the soldiers guarding the door heard that it was the Cheng family, they immediately took Cheng Yunmo's waist card, and said consciously respectfully: "Girl, wait, I am the reward." β
"There is labor." Cheng Yunmo said politely.
Cheng Yunmo didn't wait too long, and after a while, he saw Cheng Cheng running over from afar and said, "Miss, why are you here?" β
"Didn't you receive my letter?" Cheng Yunmo wrote a letter and sent it before leaving.
"I got it, but I didn't expect the eldest lady to come so soon, she must have suffered a lot along the way, right?" Cheng Cheng was very distressed.
"It's okay, I'm not that squeamish." Cheng Yunmo smiled and followed Cheng Cheng into the barracks.
A girl suddenly appeared in the barracks, saying that it was impossible not to be watched.
There are even some people who have a good relationship with Cheng Cheng, and they will come forward and ask: "Lord Cheng Cheng, who is this?" β
"This is the eldest lady of my family, Cheng Junshi's daughter-in-law Cheng Yunmo." As soon as Cheng Cheng's words came out, the surroundings immediately fell silent.
After a long time, someone smiled and said, "It turned out to be Miss Cheng!" β
