Chapter 194: Moths to the Fire (4)
Even if the master has left Momen, the friendship between the brothers and sisters is still there, and it is reasonable that the master should indeed go back to see it. Wei Nong couldn't help but comfort: "Master, you...... Condolences. ”
Ji Fengzhi closed his eyes, as if he was holding back his emotions, and waved his hand to Wei Nong for a while: "You go find a carriage and send me back to the inn." ”
It seems that Master is really overly sad! Wei Nong didn't dare to delay, and hurriedly ran to hire a carriage to escort Ji Fengzhi back to the inn. Along the way, Ji Fengzhi didn't say a word, and kept his eyes closed.
Wei Nong guessed in her heart that the master must be reminiscing about this little junior sister. She couldn't help but look at the master, and suddenly realized that his old man had passed the age of destiny, but he was still alone, his former thick eyebrows had long been dyed with wind and frost, and his sideburns were faintly frosty white, which was no longer what she remembered.
Is it really right to involve Master, a ranger who doesn't ask about the world, by himself? He has a helper, but what about his old man? Qi Zhan and Yunchen are more or less related to him, what is his position in the face of the mutual tilting of several juniors and the planning between countries? He might be able to stand it?
Wei Nong felt very bitter, and couldn't help but spit on his selfishness, so he said cautiously: "Master, why don't I go to Ningguo by myself!" ”
Ji Fengzhi still didn't open his eyes, but his voice had calmed down a lot: "Momen is also in Ningguo, you accompany me first." ”
Wei Nong hesitated for a moment: "I'm going...... I'm afraid I won't be able to get out. ”
"What do you mean?" Ji Fengzhi opened his eyes.
Wei Nong hesitated and explained: "I'm afraid that the master of the Momen Sect will know my identity and will prevent me from going to Lidu...... Moreover, Yunchen and Qi Zhan do not agree, and the owner of the door is Qi Zhan's uncle, so he must be helping his nephew. ”
Qi Zhan, the uncle, can even coerce his own sister, which shows that he is a ruthless and ambitious person. His identity is so special, and he is involved in both Yan and Chu, what if he feels that he is a strange commodity and detains himself in Momen? Wei Nong thought that he was not so stupid, and ran to throw himself into the net.
Ji Fengzhi thought about it, and also felt that the slight concern was not unreasonable, so he said: "Then you go shopping in Youzhou first, and when I finish my business, I will go to Lidu with you." ”
Wei Nong didn't want to involve the master anymore: "I'd better go by myself!" At the beginning, I was in a hurry to find you, because I wanted you to take me out of Yan Kingdom, and I also wanted you to help identify Yunchen's identity. Now I know enough clues that I can solve the rest on my own. ”
Ji Fengzhi was silent for a moment when he heard this: "I promised your father to take good care of you." This trip is full of dangers, how can I let you go by yourself? Moreover, I also want to know who Yunchen really is. ”
"However, Master......" Wei Nong wanted to persuade again, but was stopped by Ji Fengzhi: "I must go to Lidu, even if it is not for you, I have to go to see Zhan'er...... Send his mother's relics over. ”
When Wei Nong heard this, he had no choice but to stop.
Ji Fengzhi sighed again: "If Zhan'er is in power, I won't worry about you at all." King Koning is still here, if you really have a case, I'm afraid Zhan'er won't be able to protect you. With me, at least I can rob a prison together, don't you say? ”
Seeing that the master could tell jokes, Wei Nong relieved himself a little, thought about it, and said, "Let's go, Queen Jiang will definitely repair Yunchen's book." In that case, we might as well go separately and attract less of his attention. ”
"Are you going to Leto hide from him?" Ji Fengzhi asked again.
"If I don't hide it from him, how can I check?" Wei Nong laughed dryly: "Not only do you have to hide it from him, but you also have to think of ways to hide it from King Ning." Otherwise, I should be deported again. ”
There is some truth in this, and Ji Fengzhi doesn't know how long he will delay this trip to Momen, so he nodded and agreed: "It's okay, you go to Lidu first and wait for me." But you can't act rashly until I'm gone. ”
Wei Nong nodded again and again: "Eat a trench and grow wise, I won't be so impulsive anymore." ”
*****
Since the master and apprentice had already discussed, they immediately set off on the road, and only parted ways when they entered Ningguo Youzhou. Ji Fengzhi turned to Momen, and Weinong went straight to the royal capital of Lidu.
Ji Fengzhi was afraid that Wei Nong would have an accident on the road, so he gave her a lot of tracking powder before they were separated, and if she had an accident on the road, he could also rescue her through Momen. The two have already discussed, and Wei Nong will settle down at the Fujia Restaurant at the South City Gate and wait for Ji Fengzhi to go to the meeting. One of the advantages of staying at the city gate is that you can find out the movement in the city in time, and it is easy to run away if there is any trouble.
At the end of March, Weinong safely passed through the boundaries of Youzhou and Minzhou and arrived in Yanzhou. The closer to Lidu, the more lively and prosperous the street market is, one of the major features of Yanzhou is to eat tea and listen to music, as far as the eye can see, every street is full of large and small teahouses.
The last time I went to Lidu, Wei Nong was on the same road as Qi Zhan, although Qi Zhan was a killer, he was very good at eating, drinking and having fun, Wei Nong was taken by him, and he could be regarded as having seen a lot of places. But this time, Wei Nong had something in his heart, so he didn't have much interest in wandering around, so he settled at the inn recommended by Qi Zhan last time.
The chic thing about this inn is that the two floors upstairs are residential hotels, and the downstairs is a restaurant, the dishes are chic and delicious, and you can also listen to music and eat tea. The most important thing is that there is someone to take care of the stables, so she doesn't have to worry about her mount Xiangrui going hungry.
Weinong settled Xiangrui, asked for an upper room, and saw that the sun was about to set, so he went downstairs to have dinner. She had just asked for two side dishes, but when she heard a few "bangs" at the top of the stairs, seven or eight people swaggered downstairs and sat down at a table beside her.
Wei Nong didn't care about them, but overheard a young man complaining: "This ghost place doesn't even have a private room!" Spoil the mood! ”
Then someone whispered guilty: "Master Gongzi forgive the sin, otherwise let's change places?" There's a restaurant at the end of the street......"
"Forget it, I'm starving! I don't have the strength to change places! ”
This voice is obviously very young, but the tone is so domineering, and he calls himself "Lao Tzu...... Wei Nong couldn't help laughing, so she followed the sound and looked over, just in time to see a young man sitting opposite her with a broken face, impatiently waving his hand to the people around him. It seems that he is the one who complained out loud.
It's okay not to look at it, but I want to laugh even more when I look at it. The young man was only seventeen or eighteen years old, obviously a son, with a very handsome white face, but his whole body exuded a domineering style that did not match his age, which attracted her attention. But what is even more eye-catching is his dress-
He was wearing an extremely bright blue brocade robe, embroidered with peacock feathers, and he didn't even let go of the corners of his robe! The crown on his head was also very expensive, as if it was made of emerald, and was set with a circle of sapphires, which shone blue-blue in the twilight, and even his forehead was faintly blue.
And the most funny thing is that on the brocade jade hook around his waist, there are jade pendants, sachets, purses, wrenches and other fine objects at the same time, there are seven or eight kinds, not only that, but there is also a fan pinned behind his waist...... Dressed up so flamboyantly, at first glance, it looks like a peacock with the screen open!
How could anyone dress like this? It's a pity that he has a good skin. I don't know if his waist will "jingle bells" when he walks. Thinking like this, Wei Nong really couldn't hold back his laughter, and suddenly laughed out loud.
Fortunately, the peacock was teaching his subordinates a lesson and did not notice her rudeness. She couldn't help but sneak over again, and saw that the peacock was sitting at a table of eight immortals, and there were several subordinates at the same table, all of whom were plain and unpretentious, which made him stand out more and more. No, it's the peacocks.
At this moment, he was counting people one by one, and all the subordinates at the table bowed their heads, some did not say a word, some said yes again and again, some laughed and apologized, and some felt helpless. Only one of the guards had the same face as usual, with a coffin face, and looked like he was out of the way.
Wei Nong had never seen such an interesting young man from a family, so he inevitably took a few more looks, and when he came back to his senses, the dishes were about to be cold. But for some reason, she suddenly felt much happier, and the haze caused by Yunchen's identity and Qi Zhan's mother's death was swept away in the past few days, so she decided to add another pot of good wine to herself.
Looking at the table next door, the food is also very good. The peacock boy had always had a gloomy face, but after eating a few bites of food, his face finally turned cloudy and clear, and he buried his head in hard eating without saying a word.
Wei Nong also took his heart, silently used the meal, and just drank two glasses of wine, and saw a few Jiang Guoren walk in. This is nothing, since Jiang Guo announced the "change of banner", Jiang Guo people can go to Ningguo to do business, and the exchanges between the two countries are naturally more frequent. But those Jiang people were obviously new to the country, and they thought that the folk customs of Ning Country were as simple as the 100,000 mountains, and they openly talked about the court. Moreover, the discussion is also related to Yunchen.
At the beginning, he just said a few new policies of Yunchen, and he listened to it slightly, just to understand his recent situation. But the more Jiang people talked, the more outrageous it became, and then they drank a few glasses of wine, and they were a little gibberish.
"Which of you has ever seen Yun Zili? I don't know what such a genius looks like. I really want to make friends! ”
Zili is Yunchen's table.
"I once inadvertently saw Yun Zili once, with a noble temperament and handsome appearance, he is a rare person from Yushu."
"The people of Yushu? Can you do that kind of thing? One of Jiang Guoren sneered and said disdainfully: "It doesn't matter how talented it is for the time being, it's just that the superior means are too disgraceful." I don't know what kind of ecstasy he gave the queen Niangniang, but he made Niangniang obey him and spend a lot of effort to bring him to Ningguo. ”
When Wei Nong heard this, he understood a little in his heart. Now that it is spring, seeing that the spring test of Ningguo is imminent, these Jiang people must have come to participate in the scientific examination. It is said that literati are light, and it is estimated that they are also jealous of Yunchen, so they spread rumors like this.
She was faintly angry in her heart, and was thinking about how to stop these sour people, but she didn't want to, someone was one step ahead of her-
"What kind of sour are you ginger people? Lord Yun is also something you can slander? Talking about courtiers, do you want to fucking die? ”
