Chapter 120: Sickness

Yuan Mo's heart moved, and he walked straight over, he picked up the crowd, and saw the ink on a stone wall that tourists were watching.

Yuan Mo took a look, and there was a rare trace of tenderness on his frosty face, "I knew that you must have come here." ”

He turned his head and called Haibo, "She is nearby, immediately mobilize people to search the vicinity of Heng Mountain." ”

After Yuan Mo finished speaking, he turned around and strode away.

The rest of the visitors in front of the stone wall are still looking at the ink on the stone wall in amazement - "against the wind"!

Life is full of ups and downs, and when you catch up with bad luck, you will stuff your teeth even when you drink cold water. Zhang Yue has deeply realized the meaning of this sentence in the past few days. First the thick roof of the carriage was torn off by strong winds, and then it rained continuously. After two days of rain in an uncovered carriage, we finally arrived at a small town.

She wanted to buy a carriage again, only to find that there was not much silver left in her bag, and she had already made a long detour, and Zhang Yue had no control over spending money along the way, so it was strange that the silver taels could be left.

Zhang Yue was thinking about what to do next? Now it is not far from the border between Tatar and Daming.

The nearest way to Hami is to pass directly from Tatar, but that is absolutely impossible, not to mention that Tatar and the Ming Dynasty have border friction all the year round, it is easy to be killed as a live target, even if fortunately did not meet the Tatar soldiers, the territory of Tatar is either a dune or a steppe, the road environment is bad, and he crosses alone, it is simply a life of nine deaths.

She made up her mind and decided to go around Hami along the border line of the Ming Dynasty, although it was far away, but it was safe, so she used all the money left to buy steamed buns and other dry food, although it was not very far from Hami, it still took at least ten days and a half a month's drive, so she had to save expenses, and she could save it.

She found another large piece of old cloth to barely cover the roof of the carriage. Continuing to walk, after walking for another five or six days, the dry food had been eaten, Zhang Yue felt hungry and cold, she stopped the carriage, and found that there seemed to be fruit trees faintly in the jungle next to the road, so she tied the horse and staggered towards the jungle.

She walked about half a mile, and finally found the fruit tree she saw, only to find that the fruit she saw turned out to be the back of the leaf reflected in the sun, she was panting, her mouth was dry, her whole body was weak, her heart was deflated, her body was soft, and her legs trembled violently.

She had to sit down against a big tree, rested for a while, tried to stand up, but no matter what, she couldn't stand up, tried a few times, she was tired and panting.

The sky gradually darkened, and Zhang Yue thought to himself that if it was dark and the temperature in the jungle was cold, he would have to freeze to death if he was not eaten by wild beasts.

She thought for a moment, took out the fire fold from her bosom, reached out and gathered the dry leaves and branches beside her, lit it, and a puff of black smoke rose.

Zhang Yue raised his head and looked at the black smoke that slowly rose into the air, if he was lucky, if someone saw it, he might be saved.

The jungle was extremely quiet, only the rustle of the leaves blown by the wind, and the occasional crisp birdsong, Zhang Yue felt that his brain was getting more and more dull, and his consciousness was becoming more and more blurred, I don't know why, Zhu Youjiao's face appeared in front of him, caressing his face as gently as in the past, and called softly, "Yue'er, don't be afraid, I'm here!" ”

Zhang Yue shook his head hard, the illusion in front of him disappeared, Zhang Yue smiled bitterly, he was exhausted, and he was still thinking about that person.

Zhang Yue's eyelids became heavier and heavier, and at the moment when he was about to close, a strange thought flashed in Zhang Yue's mind: After he died, he went to see the king of Hades, and the king of Hades asked how he died? Does she want to say that she froze to death on the way away from home because she found out that she was deceived and used by her lover! If Yuan Mo knew that he had answered like this, he would definitely laugh off his big teeth......

Zhang Yue finally fell into endless darkness.

The imperial study of the Qianqing Palace in the Forbidden City of Beijing.

Zhu Youzhu was uneasy for a while, and he clenched the string of Xuanjing beads in his hand.

Mu Bin and Ji Quan hurriedly walked into the imperial study, and after greeting the emperor, Mu Bin solemnly said, "Your Majesty, the minister has received news from all walks of life, but there is still no trace of the mother. ”

When Zhu Youzhu heard this, his face, which had become thinner and thinner in the past few days, became even paler, and his eyes were slightly dark.

Xiao Jing next to him hurriedly said, "This...., where else will Niangniang go?" ”

Zhu Youzhu closed his lips and said nothing, but the Xuanjing beads in his hand were held tighter.

A eunuch came in from outside the temple and presented a letter with a secret note.

Zhu Youzhu glanced at Xiao Jing, Xiao Jing took the secret letter knowingly, and after reading it quickly, he said,

"Your Majesty, after Li Dongyang left Dingyun Villa, he has been secretly monitoring Yuan Mo according to your instructions, Yuan Mo really left Dingyun Villa that night, Lord Li ordered someone to follow him, and found that Yuan Mo went to Datong, Shanxi, Lord Li speculated that Yuan Mo must have gotten the news, so he went to Datong. However, the letter said that Yuan Mo did not find Niangniang. ”

Zhu Youjiao's eyes suddenly lit up, unfolded the territory map on the bookcase, stared at it for a long time, and sighed lightly, "Yue'er really went to Hami." ”

Mu Bin, Ji Quan and others asked in surprise, "Niangniang went to Hami?" ”

"Yes, she was worried that I would guess where she was going, so she took Shanxi, made a big circle, and chose the farthest and most impossible way to Hami."

Mu Bin hurriedly said, "The minister immediately transferred someone to chase after him." ”

Zhu Youzhu waved his hand, "Yue'er, in order to avoid you and others, I'm afraid you won't be found." Since she chose to go far away, I waited for her at the end. Mu Bin, you immediately take Jinyiwei to the nearest road to Hami, and you must find the queen in Hami and send her back to me unharmed. I give you an edict that if the queen resists, you can act cheaply without being restricted by the queen's status. ”

Mu Bin knelt down to accept the order, and then turned away.

Ji Quan spoke on the side, "Your Majesty, do you want to lead the secret guards to assist Lord Mu." ”

Zhu Youzhang's eyes flashed, "Uncle Ji, you don't have to worry about this matter anymore, I have other things to do with you." ”

In a village on the border between Shaanxi and Tatar, smoke rises, and the sound of chickens and dogs barking nearby can be heard from time to time.

In front of a cottage, a young man under the age of twenty was carefully chopping wood, the axe did not seem to be very sharp, the young man was very struggling to chop, and his forehead was already covered with beads of sweat.

A little girl of thirteen or fourteen years old came out of the house and pursed her lips, "Why are you working again, your illness is not well yet, my mother will let you have a good rest." ”

The young man raised his head and wiped the sweat on his forehead with his sleeve, and smiled at the little girl, "Yezi, I'm fine, I've been eating and living in your house for so many days, I think I'll help you do what I can?"

The girl named Leaf squatted down next to the young man,

"How can it be so fast! Little Fifth Sister, the day my mother and I found you in the woods, you looked really scared to death, your body was cold, your eyes were closed, my mother and I carried you back to the village, and finally your body warmed up, and you began to have a high fever again, and your body was extremely hot, and it took five days and five nights to wake up after the fever subsided. ”
