Chapter 103: Waiting for Him to Come Back
This unexpected ambush did not change Chang Qianfo's plan to travel north.
While he was waiting for Mu Dianke to wake up, Mo Yichan selected more than a dozen assassins to go out of the city to stand by according to his requirements.
Ling Fu went to the medicine village outside the city. Chuzhou came to urgently, asked for a batch of urgently needed medicinal materials, and the medicine was expensive in an emergency, Ling Fu planned to escort it in person, and it was good to connect with the Yingshui Nanwen family and Daofeng Nian Grain Bank who cooperated a month ago to connect with the follow-up matters, this kind of thing is not always good on paper.
Halfway through the medicine team, the people of Gu'an Hall caught up from behind, and passed on the words of Chang Qianfo, and Bian Chongyi, the deputy head of Gu'an Hall, sent the medicine to Chuzhou, and Ling Fu could rush back.
This is not what Chang Qianfo himself meant, it was Liangqing and Mo Yichan who came out together, and forced him to agree.
Liangqing wants to stay to protect Mu Dianke's safety; Mo Yichan also has to sit in Gu'an Hall to coordinate and assist Chuzhou Huairen Hall, prevent the epidemic in Beijing, and even help Chang Qianfo move around, prepare for the rescue of Qu Yuer in the future, and many other matters; There is no powerful person by Chang Qianfo's side, and the two of them can never rest assured.
Chang Qianfo's trip involves a lot of things, and it should be secret and not publicized. The rainstorm was just in time.
Before the city gate was closed, Chang Qianfo and Ling Fu left Gu'an Hall with a light car, and met with more than a dozen good hands arranged by Mo Yichan at the agreed place, abandoning the car and changing horses.
A group of people braved the rain and rode quickly, just on the official road, they saw that there was a green canopy car in the direction of the city gate bumping and galloping, the oblique rear of the car was tightly decorated with a man and a horse, with a large hat and a long knife at the waist, and the momentum was quite heavy.
"It's Liangqing." Ling Fu reined in the horse, covered his forehead with his hand, glanced at it from a distance, and said, "I'm afraid that the fourth young lady is not at ease, so she will catch up." ”
"Nonsense!" Chang Qianfo's face was gloomy, turned around the horse, and ran over to meet the carriage and horse.
It was Mo Cangcang who was driving, and when he saw a thousand Buddhas coming, he stopped the horse with a "hoo".
Chang Qianfo scolded him: "What are you doing? I put the pulse case on your desk, you don't know what her situation is now? She's fooling around, and you don't understand? ”
Mo Cangcang knew that this was the end. Liangqing is an elder, and Chang Qianfo is not easy to get angry, so he just took his brother under the knife.
What a horizontal, you have the ability to yell at the person in the car.
This time, Mo Cangcang really saw it wrong, Chang Qianfo really roared at Mu Dianke: "Okay, you are waiting for me in Gu'an Hall, did you not listen to a word at all, did you not take your body seriously, or did you not believe me at all?" ”
Mu Dianke stood under the umbrella, wrapped in a black cloak, his sideburns were on his forehead, and his eyes were moist.
"I'm just scared." Mu Dianke made him scream in a daze, and snorted: "I'm very panicked, I don't know what will happen to you when you go?" ”
Her eyes wandered away, looking at the more than ten horses scattered in the wind and rain, and she knew that her guess was correct - it was better to raise the soup to stop the boiling, it was better to draw salary from the bottom of the kettle - how could it be as Chang Qianfo said that there was no danger, it was to use force under Mu Cangping's nose.
Chang Qianfo knew that this matter could not be concealed from Mu Dianke.
For this reason, he deliberately transferred the men and horses outside the city, instead of following him from Gu'an Hall, and just like that, he still did not escape her eyes.
"So far, there's only one way to do it." He calmed down a little and tried to slow down his tone: "What's the good of you going with you?" I may not be able to take care of you then, and you are in such a situation......"
"I'm not going with you." Mu Dianke interrupted him, and there was an incomprehensible eagerness and hesitation in his eyes: "I just want to tell you, no one is more important than you, Thousand Buddhas-"
She took a step forward and grabbed his hand: "Anyone, one thing, including... My hatred is not as important as yours, you... Do all in one's power. ”
Chang Qianfo was stunned.
Of course, he knew how difficult it was for Mu Dian to say such things, and he knew where the sadness and hesitation in her eyes came from.
For her, it was tantamount to betrayal: a deep self-betrayal of the dead Golden Gate, of the heart and purpose for which she had lived and fought for many years.
He took a big step, pressed Mu Dianke's head on his shoulder, his cheek pressed against her sideburns through the cloak, and rubbed it back and forth: "When I come back, I will definitely come back safely." ”
After saying that, he leaned over, picked up the man who was as thin as a page, and stuffed it back into the carriage.
"I'll go back to you and settle the score." He said to Mo Cangcang.
Mo Cangcang died unjustly.
What kind of temper do you not know? Besides, wasn't you quite happy just now, why don't you turn your face and don't recognize people?
"Come on!" Mo Cangcang waved a spatula behind Chang Qianfo and gestured, "Bully the soft and fear the hard!"
At the end of the Shen period, the city gate was about to close, and no matter how angry Mo Cangcang was, he would not miss the right thing because he was angry. That is, jump on the car and ride the horse around.
The general rushed into the city, and the two heavy gates rumbled and closed behind him.
It's no wonder that Chang Qianfo is so angry, Mu Dianke had a high fever halfway, and it is also due to the fact that there is no shortage of doctors in Gu'an Hall, and all kinds of symptomatic rare medicinal materials and pill supplements are all used. The entire medicine hall belongs to the Chang family, and the people who are in the same place as the owner, who is still idle to stingy with this little medicine money for him.
There are famous doctors around him, and even the maid Qinghui who is waiting to be groomed is the master who can take the pulse alone. Mu Dianke is very sick, and it will go away quickly.
In the second watch, Qinghui came into the house to deliver medicine, and said that the good master said, if the fourth lady is in better spirits, there is someone waiting outside to see, and it has been waiting for a while.
Mu Dian can sit up and get dressed and tidy up, and call people in.
But it's not Qu Ya, it's the East Protector of the Dharma who sits down.
“…… And the elders went out of the city in the morning. Poppy Lu lowered his hand in front of him and replied respectfully: "Some affairs in Jiankang City are now being taken care of by subordinates. The class elder has other important matters. ”
"Why are you out of town at this time?" Mu Dianke raised his eyebrows and said suspiciously.
"A few days ago, I found out that the old lady of the Dou family is a heavenly master and Taoist apprentice. Before the decree was issued, Xin Wei had frequently entered and exited the Dou Mansion and had contact with the palace people. The elder suspected that Mrs. Dou entered the palace and cooperated with the inner servant Yan Sili and the outside, and promoted the Dou family's uncle and nephew to take over the escort of the prisoners. ”
Poppy Lu spoke unhurriedly and clearly: "When we entered the Dou Mansion to investigate, we encountered a force that obstructed us in every way, and we acted in the style of the rivers and lakes, which should be Mu Men and Heavenly Master Dao.
The elder believed that the key to the matter was Dou Yan's uncle and nephew, and decided to get rid of the two of them in order to prevent future troubles. ”
I have to admit that Qu Ya's ability to integrate clues and prevent things before they happen is quite amazing.
The secret agents of the Ming Palace are active in Beijing, and they are naturally no better than the two Fang Rong families, which have deep roots and broad veins.
Qu Ya couldn't find out the secrets of the Dou family's inner house, but with years of experience in the treacherous rivers and lakes, he was keenly aware that something big was going to happen, so he decisively abandoned the situation of Jiankang and rushed to Jiangbei to give it a go.
Originally, Chang Qianfo also left a letter for Qu Ya, telling him to hand it over to him in person, but now it seems that it is not necessary.
Mu Dianke asked some more details about the layout in Beijing, and he was mentally tired, so he asked Poppy to retreat.
Liangqing also went out.
Outside the door, it was stormy, Mu Dianke sat in front of the lamp, holding the secret letter in his hand, staring at it for a while, and finally couldn't help but open it.
Maybe Chang Qianfo is right, but she can't do anything about it.
He went to do it for her, and she should keep her promise, don't think uselessly, and take care of her body with peace of mind.
Wait for him to come back.
