Chapter 325: Where to go
"Young master, there's news! Someone recognized the small red-axed carriage in Lin'an Fang, parked outside the door of a tavern. β
Lu Zhi, who was sitting behind the table and analyzing the clues that had just been sent from everywhere, heard such a return from the subordinate who suddenly broke in. He sat up from the chair suddenly, picked up the rain while bypassing the bookcase, and said in a deep voice:
"Lu Yao followed me to find someone, and Lu Zheng went back to inform my grandfather."
"Yes."
The rain outside has not been reduced by half compared to the day, it has rained for most of the day, the air is already cold and tiresome, the breath is a stomach cool, the streets are very deep, there are no pedestrians on the road, the shops begin to close when they are not in the middle of the day, only a lantern hangs under the high eaves and low households on weekdays, and is extinguished by the wind and rain from time to time.
"Drive! Drive! Drive! β
With the sound of hurried driving, a team of fast horses galloped far away, and the splash of water from the horses' hooves was high on the wall by the roadside, and because of the wind brought by this gallop, two lamps were blown out in front of someone's house.
Lu Zhi held the reins of the horse with one hand, and when his body was jolting up and down, his brain did not stop running, this was his first confrontation with Han Li. He lost the Lu family and the jade without even taking a photo, but he was not afraid that the man would hurt his mother and sister, but he was ..... Just worried that I would be one step too late and let people leave.
Han Li robbed the mother and daughter in the past, it must not be just to catch up with the past, if he guessed correctly, the man would probably take his mother away from Chang'an, and the addition of the jade was to ensure that the Lu family could obediently obey.
"Young master, here you are."
On a remote street in Lin'anfang, more than a dozen horses stopped one after another, Lu Zhi turned over, and under the guidance of the person in front, walked into a dark alley in front of him, and after staying for a while, he saw a small carriage parked outside the door of a tavern, Lu Yao looked at it and affirmed:
"It was this carriage that carried Madame and Mademoiselle away."
Lu Zhi's eyes lit up, and he pointed sideways at the shop with the door closed, and said, "Move lightly." β
I haven't found anyone yet, so it's not easy to startle the snake, and who knows if there is still a back door here. Some of the people in the group were good at the doorway, and after touching the window on the side a few times, they pushed the half-person-high window open from the outside.
Lu Yao jumped in first, followed by Lu Zhi, followed by seven or eight guards with good martial arts, and the group walked from the front hall to the backyard. After searching lightly twice, he found a secret door hidden in a storeroom.
Lu Zhi looked at the terrain outside just now, knowing that there would be no extra exits here, his eyes narrowed, and he said coldly: "Get out of the way." β
***
Seeing the Lu family fall into Han Li's arms, Yi Yuxin screamed "Oops", it seems that this Han Li has made up his mind to take her mother away.
Han Li gently put Lu Shi on the bed, and with the help of Mu Changfeng, he breathed less than half a cup of tea, regained his spirits, and said: "Changfeng, you talked a lot just now, I know that you used to have a great prejudice against her, but don't forget that when I came back from looking for you the day before yesterday, you promised the eldest brother, if you can't do it, then you should go back to Hongzhuang." β
"I see, big brother." Mu Changfeng said with a serious face, no matter how he hated the Lu clan before, but since Han Li said so, he was reluctant in his heart. I will do the same.
"Okay, go and see if the little girl is awake, don't scare her, get ready, bring the people with you, let's get out of here as soon as possible, and leave the city gate in half an hour."
Mu Changfeng replied and strode out of the room, while Han Li got up to change out of his bloodstained coat.
Even she wants to take her with you? Hearing this, Yi Yu moved away from the hole behind the curtain, sat on the futon, rubbed his numb knees, and anxiously thought of countermeasures, Lu Zhi and they should be looking for their traces all over Chang'an now, according to what Han Li said, he was just trying to lure him out, so far, her eldest brother should have guessed that it was Han Li who robbed them, can he find them in time?
But Han Li's indistinct voice came intermittently in his ears:
"Jing Lan, I will take you away from this Chang'an, which will never be calm...... Remember when you were young, you said that you most wanted to live by the lake, the house didn't need to be too big, there was ...... When you get there, I'll make you forget all the unhappy things, and we'll start over, and I don't want to regret it, and I won't let you get hurt again... Jing Lan..."
Just looking at this Han Li's behavior, he was able to turn Fang Qiao around thirteen years ago, and now he has seen through her eldest brother's trick. Han Li, who is thoughtful, must have arranged a complete strategy to take the Lu family out of Chang'an, listen to his tone, this time, if you want to come back, I'm afraid it will be difficult!
"Hey," he sighed, hearing a voice in his throat, and Yu Yu's face was happy, and then he stepped down again.
What should she do, show affection and reason to Han Li, and let him let them go? What a joke, a man who has insisted on a relationship for more than 20 years, how can she be moved by the strength of his mind?
Just as Yi Yu got up with a sad face and re-stuffed the curtain into the hole, sat cross-legged and thought about getting out of the timer, there was a lock sound outside the door, "squeak", the door was pushed open, she raised her head, and by the light of the brazier, she saw Mu Changfeng standing by the door with a cold expression.
"Awake? Put on your outer garment. β
β...... You. You," Yu Yu grabbed the quilt and sat up slowly, the light of the fire gradually shifted from the bed to her face, her delicate brows furrowed at first, her dry lips twitched twice, and thenβ
"Woo, woo... Mother, mother, where are you... Mother, woo woo..."
Mu Changfeng looked at Yi Yu, who seemed to have just woken up, and was sitting on the edge of the bed holding the quilt and crying, his expression stiffened, although he had heard of Yi Yu's recent name. But no matter how she looks at this, she looks like a scared little girl, and she doesn't watch out for a while.
He cleared his throat, walked over, and said as slowly as he could, "Don't cry, put on your clothes quickly, and I'll take you to your mother." β
As soon as he came up and opened his mouth, Yu Yu cried even more vigorously, "Mother... Big brother, yes, there are villains who have arrested Yu'er... Woo woo woo .... Don't come here, bastard..."
Mu Changfeng saw two handfuls of tears dripping from Yiyu's small face, hurriedly shrunk the quilt to the wall, and listened to her mouthful of a "bad guy", and almost couldn't help but reach out and touch his face, does he look so terrible?
Seeing that the soft one was not good, he came to the hard one again, his face was pale, and said: "Aren't you very smart, use your brain to think, if I am really a bad person, how can I treat you softly in a high bed, and I will burn the brazier, I will throw you into the firewood room and lock you up, don't talk nonsense, get up and follow me honestly, it really makes me angry, you don't want to see your mother." β
This trick really worked, Mu Changfeng watched with satisfaction as Yi Yu puffed out his cheeks and couldn't hold back his howl, first looked at him with teary eyes, and then took a little guard, while rubbing his tears with the back of his hand, he said:
"I'll go with you, you want me to see my mother... Also, I haven't eaten for a day, I'mβI'm hungry. β
As she spoke, her stomach rang, and Mu Changfeng impatiently reached out to pick up the clothes that had been dried at the end of the bed and threw them to her, "Hurry up." What to eat on the way to talk. β
"I want to eat the crab roe lion head of Jin Kee."
Mu Changfeng looked at the jade that was dragging and dressing, remembered Mu Changfeng's explanation, and said, "Change the one that you can take on the road." β
"That, that wants to eat Hongyuanlou's flower basket purse." Yi Yu said a little aggrieved.
"This won't work."
Yi Yu said in frustration: "Eat mutton patties, there is always one, the one in front of the West Gate of the West Market..."
Mu Changfeng thought for a moment and hesitated: "Okay." β
Seeing that she had finally obediently put on her clothes, Mu Changfeng glanced around the ground, but did not find her shoes, sighed helplessly, reached out and carried her up, and impatiently clicked her dumb hole in the screams of Yi Yu.
"Boom!" There was a sudden loud noise outside the house, Mu Changfeng frowned, and glanced out of the high window where the lightning flashed.
***
As soon as Lu Zhi gave the order, two people stepped forward, each of them unceremoniously flew up, locked the sturdy secret door from the inside, and fell down with a "bang". Lu Yao led people to break into the secret room in front of him-
"Young master, this?"
Lu Zhi was in an elegantly furnished room on the left side of the secret room, where the white candle was slightly extinguished, and watched Lu Yao reach out and stain some blood on the back of a mahogany chair, sniff lightly, and said:
"I should have left two quarters of an hour ago."
"Young Master, I found this in the next room!" A guard ran in and handed over something.
Lu Zhi just glanced at it, and quickly took it, but the mouth of the bag was wide open, and the inside of the pouch embroidered with simple patterns was empty, and there were no clues left. Han Li and they should have taken another carriage to leave two quarters of an hour ago, two quarters of an hour, the fastest way out of the city from here, only half an hour is needed, once people leave Chang'an City, it will be difficult to find it again!
Lu Zhibian stared intently at the empty pouch in his hand, speculating on the meaning-
There was a guard on the side and said: "Young master, if you want to leave Chang'an at this hour, you can only go through the south gate, there are already people waiting there, why don't we go over now?" β
As soon as the light exploded, Lu Zhi stretched out his hand and squeezed the pouch tightly, turned around and strode towards the secret room, and said in a low tone: "It's not the south gate, it's the west!" Come with me. β
It is empty, but it is a fine light, and the lotus bag is wide open, which is the meaning of the door, the fine light, the golden light door!
Just as Lu Zhi was rushing towards the Golden Light Gate with a group of guards, a quarter of an hour ago, a carriage stopped in the shadows on the side of the city gate. There is a small silver-headed case in the car, on which a small stove with a beast's head is burned, and incense lingers on the top of the stove.
"Master, this Han Li is really capable, he can buy the city and help him open the door at night, if it weren't for ..... Who would have thought that he would leave from the West Gate, this person can escape from Hongzhuang, it is also good, if we catch him tonight, what are you going to do? β
A cold color crossed his heterochromic pupils, "Send it back." β(οΌ )
