Chapter 271: Returning Home
The coachman nodded and smiled: "Master Guan, at this time, my young master and wife have just returned from the banquet in the west of the city?" Is something wrong? Why the sudden cross-examination? ”
As he spoke, he gave the officers and soldiers two small pieces of broken silver.
The officers and soldiers advanced the silver and laughed: "It's still the merchant who is sensible." It doesn't hurt to tell you, there is a key criminal in the prison, and we are investigating. Hurry up and let your young master and lady come down, otherwise, we will be guilty of it, and at that time, it will not be a silver ingot! ”
"Yes, yes." The coachman said, approaching the carriage: "Young master, madam, I want to investigate the offender, it's okay, come down quickly." ”
Mu Yunge lowered his voice and said softly, "Scared me." The young master is drunk, you hold on, don't fall him. ”
As she spoke, she lifted the curtain and revealed half of her very delicate face.
Hongyi got out of the car first, stretched out his hand to help her, Mu Yunge got out of the car with his skirt, unexpectedly saw the dull eyes of the officers and soldiers, smiled lightly, and said in a low voice and helplessly: "Governor Zhang's mansion invited the husband to the banquet, the husband drank a few more glasses, please forgive the eldest brother of the official." ”
"Where, madam, be careful." When the officials saw that she was weak and heard that it was the prefect's invitation, they all put away their covetousness and looked at her carefully.
Mu Yunge turned around and handed his hand to Lin Juzheng in the carriage with the coachman.
Lin Juzheng's heart was beating fast, and his legs had lost sensation three years ago and he couldn't move at all. At this time, it is difficult to ride a tiger, if you don't lift the curtain and take two steps, I am afraid that you will be detained by the official immediately, Duan Rongxuan came to check, even if the disguise is good, Duan Rongxuan will find the clues. He couldn't afford to take that risk.
Lin Ju was holding the carriage with one hand, moving forward with all his might. The coachman had already calculated it, as soon as he stretched out his hand, he immediately put more force on Lin Juzheng's hand, and with this force, Lin Juzheng finally got out of the carriage.
Feet on the ground, completely exposed in front of people, another dangerous road.
Fortunately, Mu Yunge had already prepared, and although the few stitches she had just pricked in Lin Juzheng's waist were painful, they were very effective.
The coachman drove Lin Ju Zheng forward, and Lin Ju Zheng took a step unconsciously.
Surprisingly, his legs, who had long been disobedient, really moved in the direction he wanted!
He couldn't hold back his surprise, and subconsciously looked at the girl next to him, her eyes were full of worry, and she was nervously holding one of his arms, and said softly: "I'm really drunk, help him, don't fall." His expression was calm, as if this result was a matter of course.
Surprised in his heart, his feet suddenly became weak, and as soon as Mu Yunge's voice fell, Lin Juzheng was a stumbling person.
As soon as Lin Juzheng got out of the carriage, a smell of wine came to him, and the official wrinkled his nose, knowing that Mu Yunge's so-called drunkenness was true, and there was not much surprise when he saw him almost fall at this time. He waved his hand and let them pass: "Drunk like this, help them in." ”
Mu Yunge blessed his body, thanked him again, and entered the inn with the coachman.
The coachman helped the person to Mu Yunge's room, lowered his voice and said to Mu Yunge: "Duan Rongxuan has closed the city gate, and he shouldn't be able to get out tomorrow." After tomorrow, he has great ability, and he doesn't dare to lock the city anymore. ”
The people's grievances are boiling, Rao is the prince's family, and he must also be afraid of three points!
Mu Yunge nodded: "You have also worked hard, don't come out to do activities in the near future, so as not to bump into Duan Rongxuan's hands." ”
"Yes. Let's rest first, my subordinates are downstairs in the font room, and my subordinates will call me if they have something. The day after tomorrow, his subordinates will come again to send the door master out of the city. The coachman answered, bowed out of the room, and closed the door.
Finally quieted down, Lin Ju looked at the unfamiliar room as if in a dream, and couldn't believe that he had escaped from the cage so easily. In the past few years, he has thought of countless ways, but the farthest time is just to leave that courtyard! Is the nightmarish imprisonment really over?
"Second Prince Lin is tired, let's rest first, I'm outside, if you have anything, you can call me or Hongyi." After tossing for most of the night, Mu Yunge saw that he was sleepy, and knew that it was not easy for him to drag his legs, so he thoughtfully withdrew from the back room.
Lin Juzheng didn't dare to fall asleep for a moment, he had been used to it all these years, he shook his head, and wanted to say something else, Mu Yunge had already retreated.
As soon as the incense was not enough, he heard a slender breath outside, and it was obvious that Mu Yunge had fallen asleep.
He had a lot of doubts in his heart, but he could only suppress it and not mention it, stroking the jade carving in his palm, the person was not drunk, but his heart was drunk.
Of course, this night was very difficult for Lin Juzheng, and the next day, listening to the boiling voices on the street and listening to the shouts of the officers and soldiers everywhere, he felt even more tormented, for fear that the next moment Duan Rongxuan would rush in and arrest him!
In contrast, Mu Yunge was very calm, he should eat and drink, and only in the evening, he let the red clothes go out to buy some snacks and dry food, and filled the dark compartment of the carriage to the brim.
Lin Juzheng couldn't figure out where her confidence came from, so he was sure that Duan Rongxuan would definitely not find out here. But it turned out that he really underestimated the woman in front of him. When the night of this day came, all the hustle and bustle outside gradually quieted down, which also indicated that this very unquiet day and two nights had finally passed, and he completely believed that this escape, which was different from the previous ones, would not end in nothing!
At noon on the third day, as the coachman expected, Duan Rongxuan finally aroused public anger after closing the city for a day and two nights, and Duan Rongxuan had to open the city gate.
Although he opened the city gates, he still let his soldiers line up under the city gates, searching the people who entered and exited one by one, and he sat on the city wall to supervise.
At three o'clock in the afternoon, the inn was the least crowded, and Lin Juzheng was carried downstairs by the coachman, walked to the backyard, and placed in the carriage.
The carriage was covered with a thick fox fur bedding, and a stove was placed in the middle, which was very warm. Mu Yunge got into the carriage, with a valuable headdress inserted in his caged hair, the white cloak on his body looked good, and the fur collar circled his neck, revealing a shocking face. Lin Juzheng was dressed in black, his hair was neatly combed, and with his pale complexion, he looked a little decadent, as if he hadn't woken up.
The carriage swayed to the city gate.
When the officers and soldiers stopped and opened the curtain, they saw a young couple in the carriage, and their hearts were already a little relaxed. At this time, it was only late October, and he needed to use a charcoal stove to keep warm, and the young man looked decadent, obviously very sick, and immediately let go.
Duan Rongxuan was on the city wall at this time, and when he saw this carriage from afar, he only thought it was a rich and noble son of a family who went out, and he didn't take it to heart.
He believed that those unscrupulous people who came to rob people would definitely think of the most secret way to send Lin Juzheng away, and they would never be so swaggering!
Under Duan Rongxuan's gaze, the carriage slowly left the city and drove towards the homeland that Lin Juzheng had been looking forward to......
At the end of October, the golden chrysanthemum in the Great Wei Jing gradually withered, the autumn was deeper, the chill was heavier, and there were fewer and fewer people going out. On this day, it rained again in the capital of Great Wei, which was soaked to the bone marrow, and people couldn't help but shiver.
In such weather, the people from the county lord's mansion were waiting outside the city gate early in the morning. Nangong Jin stood on tiptoe, not even holding an umbrella, just standing upright on a broken stone outside the city. Passers-by looked at this high-ranking county lord a little strangely, but she didn't care at all, just waiting for the two familiar figures.
From the slight darkness of the sky, it was not until after noon that a carriage slowly drove in the sky.
"It's coming, county lord, it's coming!" Liu Yuan accompanied Nangong Jin to stand on the broken stone, and when he saw the carriage, he couldn't help cheering: "It must be Miss Mu!" ”
Nangong Jin covered her mouth, and before she opened her mouth, tears were already rolling down.
She quickly jumped off the broken stone, subconsciously tidied up her hair, and touched the cold hairpin with her hand, only to suddenly remember that she had not combed her hair in a bun today, but coiled her hair.
He put down his hand, and silently raised his hand to wipe away the wet rain on his face. Seeing this, Liu Yuan hurriedly handed over his handkerchief, and Nangong Jin wiped his face with a handkerchief before stepping forward and walking onto the official road. The soldiers of the county lord's mansion hurriedly handed over the umbrella, and Liu Yuan took it and propped it up on top of her head, so that her freshly tidied face would not be wet by the rain again.
Nangong Jin couldn't see anything anymore, her eyes were full of the carriage coming in front of her, her eyesight was very good, and when she saw that the person driving was Mu Yunge's girl in red, she immediately couldn't help but take two steps forward.
After leaving the border of Southern Chu, the coachman returned to Southern Chu, and Hongyi consciously took over the work of the coachman.
The red coat reined in his horse, turned around and said, "Miss, the county lord is outside the city gate and has come to pick us up." ”
"Got it." Mu Yunge responded while raising the curtain and looking ahead, smiling slightly, and breathing a long sigh of relief. She got out of the carriage, jumped in front of Nangong Jin easily, raised her head and pursed her lips and smiled: "Fortunately, I have successfully brought it back." It's so tiring to run around these days, I'm going to go back to the house to rest first. ”
"Yunge!" Nangong Jin stopped her and wanted to say a few words of thanks, but when she opened her mouth, she realized that she couldn't find the right words to express her gratitude.
Fortunately, they have a deep relationship, and Mu Yunge still understands her mind to some extent, waves his hand, and walks away.
Lin Juzheng listened to the conversation between the two in the carriage, and knew that the person who had been reading for more than three years was outside the carriage, but he couldn't lift the strength to open the curtain.
He is still a little scared......
His legs are gone, and all the good and happy things that were promised to her can only be spoken. He can no longer take his little girl to travel the world, can no longer accompany his little girl to dance with knives and guns, and can no longer hold her hand in the morning sunset...... Does she feel sorry and sad?
He was staring at his legs and thinking, when a strong light suddenly came out of front of him.
Lin Ju slowly raised his eyes.
At this glance, it seems to be the vicissitudes of life, as if it is a world away!
Nangong Jin in front of the carriage was full of tears, and the young man sitting in the carriage was finally no longer the phantom in her daily dreams, and it was no longer an empty tomb on Nanshan just for mourning. She knew why he didn't come down and hugged herself excitedly, she knew why there was such strong restraint on his face, he couldn't walk anymore, but it didn't matter, from now on, she was willing to be his legs!
She couldn't help but jump into the carriage and slammed into his arms......
