Chapter 303: Concubine
After a brief understanding of the situation in Quancheng, Mo Chuchen sent someone to place the two old women and returned to the study by himself.
The second aunt is too peaceful, she thinks deeply of Wei Peng's decision, but she doesn't want to stay in Quancheng with Wei Peng, even if Wei Peng is her "true love", she will not stay in Quancheng for Wei Peng.
It was the mother of the original owner, she didn't have any sense of existence at first, and after settling in a safe place, she began to beg Mo Chuchen to save Wei Peng, and sent someone to find Wei Yin.
Xu is because it is her son who is sheltering her now, but she is a little more active than in the Wei family.
Mo Chuchen pinched the bridge of his nose and asked the maid to make the old lady happy with a headache.
"Wei Taishou, what are you going to do now?" Wei Lin was naturally not interested in catching up with his mother, and followed him to the study of the Taishou Mansion.
His eyes flashed, and he clenched his fists excitedly: "Now is a good opportunity!" Succeed in the king's defeat, the situation in our Nanzhou is very good, and we can fight for it. ”
"What are you fighting for? For? Mo Chuchen calmly took out a stack of letters: "In the past few months, I have received no less than 100 letters, including those three princes, and naturally there are some strange people, all of whom have the same rhetoric. ”
"Well, don't you really have any ideas?" Wei Lin was shocked: "In this situation, Emperor Zhao can't control Nanzhou here, what is there to worry about?" ”
Mo Chuchen smiled lightly and shook his head, most people look at Nanzhou like this, they always feel that the Nanzhou uprising will happen sooner or later, so they don't want to win over or take him away, the biggest courtier in Nanzhou at present.
"As for me, just do my own thing, what if the outside world is flooded, but Wei Peng, if he insists on refusing to escape, he still needs to trouble you to help last."
As he spoke, Mo Chuchen found a bag and gave it to Wei Lin.
Wei Lin was about to disassemble it, but Mo Chuchen raised his hand to stop it, and said, "When you arrive at Quancheng, there is no way back to open it, and you can't open it until time." ”
Wei Lin was puzzled, he only felt that the third brother's speech looked like a fortune teller who fooled people on the street, he nodded and agreed: "Okay, since you have other plans, I don't want to force ......." ”
Wei Lin gave up after persuasion to no avail, so he packed his things and quickly made a special trip back to Quancheng.
More than a month had passed when he rushed back to Quancheng alone, and Quancheng at this time would not be easy for people to enter and exit, and after King Zile openly raised the banner that he was the son of destiny, the places he occupied also began to prepare for war in all aspects.
In order to prevent all the people from running away, Lewang closed the city gates, and unless there was an application for entry and exit, ordinary people could only live in the city.
Wei Lin proved that he was a person from Quancheng and successfully entered Quancheng, at this moment Quancheng has already changed, there are not many people on the street, and a few hawkers from the countryside are selling wild vegetables and mushrooms and other things, and these things are not affordable for ordinary people in Quancheng.
Because food is not scarce in Quancheng, and there are people patrolling it, patrolling it tightly.
The people in Springs have not lost their minds, unlike people in other places, who kill and take food when they see it.
Wei Peng roughly looked at it, ordinary people can barely survive, because King Le will always give some coarse grains and other things to the people every meal, and those people are full of praise for King Le.
However, the larger merchants in Quancheng were not so lucky, most of their gold and silver treasures were scavenged by Lewang, and because of the previous grain request, most of the food in their homes was cut off.
Walking on the deserted street, Wei Lin had mixed feelings.
King Le cares about ordinary people, which is much better than other princes.
However, King Le was not so patient with the merchants, landlords and gentry, and the first step in occupying the city was to seize all the belongings of these people.
Because of this, many people do not support Lewang, and some large merchants have even taken refuge in other princes early.
If it weren't for King Le's own forces, which could not be defeated casually, the people who would like King Le's death the most now would be those wealthy nobles except for Emperor Zhao.
Soon, Wei Lin found the Wei family's old mansion, which was still the same as before, but silently a little more depressed and desolate.
Pushing open the door, the weeds in the yard were already half a meter high, there were a lot of cobwebs on the shelter corridor, and there was a patch of ash on the stone table under the tree.
"Big brother, are you back?" A woman with a woman's hair in a bun walked out from behind the rockery and whispered.
"Hey, Wei Yin, why are you here?"
Wei Linzai looked at the woman carefully, and only remembered after half a sound that this was the concubine of the third room.
In the past, he didn't walk around much with those younger sisters, and the appearance of his sister was always a little vague in his mind.
"Didn't you leave Spring City with your husband's family?" Wei Lin still remembers the news he inquired about a few months ago.
"Well, that's not the case." Wei Yin sighed sadly.
It turned out that she did leave Quancheng with her husband's family, but instead of going to the imperial capital, they went to the territory of other princes.
It's the Zhao family, after they had an accident, they went directly to the imperial capital to take refuge in their own family.
Wei Yin was kept in the dark at first, thinking that it was a family trip, but as the route became farther and farther, she realized that something was wrong.
But at that time, she didn't have time to report to the Wei family.
The road was not easy, there was famine and plague everywhere, Wei Yin was a pity for a sick man on the way, and was thrown away by her husband's family after giving him a steamed bun.
Because no one knew whether Wei Yin was sick or not, they couldn't afford to take this risk.
How did Wei Yin, a lone woman, return to Quancheng? It turned out that she met Wei Guy in the past halfway, and that guy was also a good person, he had run out of Quancheng, but when he saw Wei Yin pitifully, he sent her back again, and he was trapped in Quancheng and couldn't get out.
"Also, they won't let ordinary ladies know about this kind of thing, fortunately you met your former buddy, otherwise I'm afraid you will die outside."
Wei Lin pinched a cold sweat for this sister after hearing this, the world outside is terrible, and a girl can't get anything good outside.
"What about the guy? I'm going to thank him. ”
"He now lives in an old shop in Springs.
By the way, big brother, my father is seriously ill, but how can I be good? Wei Yin himself was also the master of the six gods, grabbed Wei Lin's arm and told Wei Peng about the situation.
It turned out that after Wei Lin Wei Ran left with a huge amount of money, Lewang began to rectify those dishonest traders, and most of Wei Peng's fields and shops were collected by Lewang, seeing that the things left by his ancestors were taken away, Wei Peng was also angry and couldn't afford to get sick.
Wei Lin frowned when he heard this, he didn't expect King Le to be so eager to take away his Wei family's land.
Wei Lin walked all the way to the room where Wei Peng was resting, Wei Peng was lying in it so quietly, as thin as a hanging thread, even if King Le didn't make a move, Wei Peng was afraid that he wouldn't be able to hold on for many days.
"What did the doctor say?"
"The doctor said that it was an angry illness and gave some medicine, but my father never got better." Wei Yin's tears fell as she spoke.
"Okay, don't cry, I have some special medicine here, to calm the nerves and replenish qi, and we will leave when my father is better."
Wei Lin estimated that King Le would not think of the Wei family again, after all, this place was already so dilapidated, and his father was almost out of breath.
Wei Peng was so sick that he didn't understand Wei Lin's words, otherwise with his temper, he would definitely rather die of illness than leave.
After Wei Lin came back, he first took care of his old father for a few days, and then went to the old shop to visit the guy who saved Wei Yin.
Wei Lin's appearance made Wei Lin impressed, compared to other guys, this guy is much stronger, at first glance, he is the kind that can fight, but he has a simple look, and he laughs with a silly energy.
"Brother Miao is the guy who brought me back." Wei Yin introduced.
"Wei Da Shao is good, my name is Miao Xuan." Miao replied in a stiff manner, in the past, he was a guy who moved goods, where could he talk to the young master of the Wei family, he was nervous when he saw Wei Lin coldly.
"Don't call me anything Wei Dashao, just call me Wei Lin, this time, I'm here to thank you for saving my sister, we don't have anything else to repay you, it just so happens that I have a house to the west, so I'll send you." As he spoke, Wei Lin took out a title deed and handed it to Miao Xuan.
"This, this is too precious!" Miao was stunned because he knew that the house on the west side used to be Wei Lin's martial arts practice, and if it was left in the past, it would be worth a hundred taels.
"It's nothing valuable, even eating here is a problem now, and I'm sorry to give you a house." Wei Lin said that he refused Miao and returned the title deed.
Miao said that it was just inspiration, and finally accepted the title deed in a daze.
After living in Quancheng for half a month, after Wei Peng's condition improved somewhat, Wei Lin immediately prepared to take him out of Quancheng, with his kung fu, it was not difficult to take a few people away without knowing it.
But after sobering up, Wei Peng was particularly twisted, and he was stunned and did not leave the Wei family's old house.
"If you want to leave, you can leave with Yin'er, I, Wei Peng, is, I am sick and dead, in the old mansion, I can't just run away!."
As he spoke, Wei Peng gasped several times, and his words were intermittent.
"Daddy! Why bother? Wei Lin wanted to carry the person away, but Wei Peng just didn't cooperate.
"What, why not? I'm not going anyway!. Wei Peng insisted on his own opinion, just didn't run.
At this time, the sound of applause sounded from the door, and I saw a screeching sound from the wooden door, and then a middle-aged man in a luxurious brocade dress walked in.
"I thought that Wei Taishou would not be able to take care of here, but I didn't expect that after so many days, Wei Taishou finally sent someone to pick up this old father."
"Le Wang!" Wei Lin's heart tightened, he never expected that Le Wang would appear at this time.
"I already knew it the first day you came to Spring City." King Le sat down casually, and his left and right guards served him tea and poured water, and the pie was so natural that it was as if he was at home.
"The matter of Nanzhou, this prince has heard about it, and now this king coughs cough ......."
A black mist interrupted Lewang's speech, choking him with snot and tears.
This black fog turned out to be caused by Wei Lin.
Ignoring the nonsense of King Le every day, he calmly took out the tips.
Who knew that as soon as it was opened, there was a bang, and there was a large black fog, which was extremely choking, and just smelling it made people dizzy.
Wei Lin didn't expect this either, he choked on tears after taking a sip.
Fortunately, as a person who practices martial arts, he hurriedly held his breath as soon as he realized that something was wrong, found Wei Peng, and left the room with him on his back.
As soon as he got out of the room, he was shocked, this black fog had already spread out, wrapping the people and horses of King Le, and it looked very evil.
"Brother, what's going on?" Wei Yin was choked with tears on her face.
"Hold your breath and follow me!" Wei Lin didn't have time to explain too much, he grabbed Wei Yin, carried Wei Peng on his back, and floated out of the Wei family's old mansion with light luck all the way.
After they ran out of Quancheng, they hid in a ruined temple in the middle of the wilderness to rest.
"Alas, if Dad wakes up, I'm afraid he will make trouble." Wei Yin looked at Wei Peng, who was in a coma, with a sad face.
"There's no time to explain that much, we need to get out of here as soon as possible." Wei Lin could see that he had already left Quancheng anyway, and he would definitely not let Wei Peng have a chance to go back to Quancheng again.
After resting in the broken temple for a long time, Wei Peng started to hurry again, he made a deal with a dart bureau on the way, bought a carriage for one hundred taels, and inquired about the situation in Quancheng by the way.
After this inquiry, he learned that King Le had fallen into a coma since he was choked by the black fog, and the people who went to the Wei family's old mansion with him were also unconscious.
People who don't know about it regard this incident as a haunted incident in the Wei family's old mansion, and they don't know when King Le will wake up.
"Brother, won't King Le threaten us anymore?"
Wei Yin is optimistic about this.
"It's hard to say, I'm afraid it's not the rhetoric that King Le released to confuse the world, let's go, let's go to Nanzhou."
Wei Lin didn't believe it at all, if King Le was really unconscious, how could such a major event be known to everyone?
Wei Lin drove the carriage to hurry, and halfway through, Wei Peng's illness became serious again, sometimes he was so sick that he couldn't distinguish between reality and dreams, and he muttered some words like the ancestors and ancestors in his mouth.
When passing through the imperial capital, Wei Lin inquired about Wei Ran's whereabouts by the way, but he didn't hear about Wei Ran, and he didn't know where the person went.
The atmosphere in the imperial capital is harmonious, but the rich eat and drink without worry, and the poor freeze to death on the streets.
At this time, Wei Lin missed those days in Nanzhou, which could not be said to be rich, at least everyone could still afford to eat food and wear cotton clothes, even if there was really no place to live, they could spend a few pennies to go to the fireplace room to make do with it.
Wei Yin was nervous all the way, she was afraid of encountering robbers halfway, but fortunately, Wei Lin's martial arts were strong, and there was only no danger along the way.
It took nearly two months for the three of them to rush from Quancheng to the boundary of Nanzhou.
