Chapter 52
Chunxia and Wu Da got up early, one made breakfast, the other chopped firewood, and they were no different from ordinary peasant couples.
Seeing them come out of the house, Chunxia smiled at them in the stove and said, "Get up, ready to eat." ”
Wu Da glanced at them and didn't say anything, but Wu Chou and Wu Wu ran over and saluted Xiao Yunjiao in a proper manner.
"Hello Mr. Luan."
Xiao Yunjiao smiled and touched their heads, "Hello guys." ”
Wu Wei took her hand, "Sir, can you follow me to Erniu's house to find her?" I told her that I had a fairy gentleman, and she didn't believe me. ”
Wu Chou took her other hand, "No, follow me to find Huzi first." ”
It seems that the two children are showing her off.
Xiao Yunjiao lowered his eyes and thought for a while: "Who is the second girl Huzi?" ”
"Erniu is my good friend, as well as Fengya, Xiaolan, Pingping......" Wu Wei said a long list of names, "They are all my good friends." ”
Wu Chou stared at her with wide eyes on the side, "Can Mr. come with us?" ”
Xiao Yunjiao didn't agree, and glanced at Wu Da, "We are your father's guests, and we still need his consent." ”
Wu Chou and Wu Wu turned to Wu Da's side, and he agreed to "Dad", "Please", "Okay", and agreed.
I don't know if I am confident that they will not be able to set off the wind and waves, Wu Da actually agreed that Shen Yuzhou would also join them.
Walking out of the courtyard, Xiao Yunjiao paid attention to the scene of the village.
To the south is a flat, small field that leads to the foot of the mountain. On the north side are two rows of houses, with fruit trees planted in front of and behind them. There are chickens and ducks in the courtyard, and a few children are playing in the mud in the open space in front of the door.
Thinking of Shen Yuzhou's words, Xiao Yunjiao deliberately observed that there were really no old people in this village.
Wu Wu saw a few children from afar, and shouted happily, "Second girl! I brought my fairy! ”
This voice attracted a group of children, and soon a group of them surrounded them.
"Are you really a fairy?"
"She's so beautiful, she must be a fairy."
"Why is the fairy dressed like my mother?"
"Are you the fairy's guard? Are you all heavenly gods? ”
Xiao Yunjiao, who asked questions one by one, was dizzy.
Shen Yuzhou opened his mouth to help her out of the siege, "We are not immortals, we are masters who have come to teach Wu Chou and Wu Wei to read." ”
The children's questions were quickly asked to him.
"What is Master?"
"What are you doing reading?"
"The Master is the one who teaches people to read and write." Shen Yuzhou explained one by one, "After reading books and knowing words, people will be more sensible and more beautiful." ”
"Is it as pretty as a fairy sister?"
Shen Yuzhou looked at Xiao Yunjiao for a while before saying, "Then you have to read a lot of books." ”
Wu Chou has also become familiar with them in the past two days, and slowly faded away from the appearance of little adults, and a group of children proudly showed off the "Three Character Classic" that he had just learned yesterday.
When they returned to the Wu family, they were followed by a group of little tails that couldn't be shaken off.
"Mother, I want the second girl to study with me." Wu Wei took Chunxia's hand and shook it.
Chunxia glanced at a bunch of children in the yard and said with a smile: "Okay, but did their mother agree?" ”
Wu Wei nodded heavily, "I agreed." ”
Chunxia smiled and said to Xiao Yunjiao, "Sister, it's really hard for you." ”
Xiao Yunjiao shook his head, "It's okay, I just might want my husband to help me." ”
Shen Yuzhou cooperated and laughed harmlessly on the side, and played the weak boy brother vividly.
Chunxia naturally has nothing to say. As a result, the daily class changed from teaching two children to teaching a bunch of children.
Shen Yuzhou also became their master, and soon the children loved him more than Xiao Yunjiao.
Not for anything else, just because he would tell them a little story after every lesson. Some of these stories are about the spirits of the mountains and wilderness, and some are about the alleys and alleys, and his narration is vivid and fascinating, and it is not the same for five or six days in a row.
"Brother Yun, will you tell us the story of Fairy Chang'e tomorrow?" The second girl leaned on the table and asked meaninglessly.
Shen Yuzhou shook his head, not as responsive as a few days ago, "The story in my stomach is almost finished." ”
Wu Chou was shocked, "Brother Yun is so powerful, will the story be finished?" ”
Shen Yuzhou took a sip of water, "Of course, to make up a story, you need to listen to the customs of various places, every time I go to a place, someone will tell me a lot of things about them, and this is the story you hear." ”
The children nodded thoughtfully.
"Then we'll tell you about this too, do you have a new story to tell us?" Wu Wei raised his head and asked.
"Of course." Shen Yuzhou smiled, "But...... I can't let your parents know, I'm afraid that they will know and think that I am a shallow learner, and they won't let me teach you to read anymore. ”
This is something that the children don't want to happen, and they all cover their mouths tightly and promise not to tell the adults in the family.
"I didn't think you were good at fooling children." After the children left, Xiao Yunjiao said to Shen Yuzhou with a smile.
Shen Yuzhou put away the pen and ink, and said casually: "What's so difficult about this, they are much better fooled than you and Fu Mingyuan when they were children." ”
Xiao Yunjiao was stunned for a moment, and her taste was wrong, "Hey, what are you fooling me about?" ”
Only then did Shen Yuzhou realize that he had slipped his mouth, "No, I'm talking about Fu Mingyuan." ”
Xiao Yunjiao leaned behind him and said quietly: "Let's talk about leaving here." ”
After cleaning up the table, Chunxia outside had already prepared dinner, these days she has changed her tricks to make food for them, and several chickens in the yard have been killed.
Wu Da has always been speechless at the dinner table, but today he opened his mouth, "I'm going out tomorrow." ”
Chunxia glared at him, "It's only been a few days since I've come back and I'm going out, there are still guests at home, where are you going?" ”
Wu Da said lightly: "Go and recover the arrears." ”
I didn't say a word more.
Chunxia held the bowl silently, but her expression was obviously not very happy, and she didn't say a word until she finished eating.
This gave Shen Yuzhou and Xiao Yunjiao more space to plan their escape.
In the next day or two, a few children told them all the big and small things in the village, and Shen Yuzhou also gave them more wonderful stories.
On the night of the third day, he and Xiao Yunjiao lay side by side on the bed and whispered, "I may know the secret of this village. ”
Xiao Yunjiao closed her eyes but didn't fall asleep, "I may know it too." ”
"This is where private soldiers are stationed."
"They're private soldiers."
The two said together.
Dongsheng's soldiers were all registered by the Ministry of War, and then unified by the generals with tiger talismans, even the royal pro-soldiers and forbidden troops were no exception. After each major battle, the book was recreated to ensure that the forces were balanced and sufficient.
Outside the register are private soldiers.
Private soldiers and guards are very different, they have a system, a general, a weapon, and the number of guards is thousands of times that of the princes and nobles. The man who raised a private soldier...... His heart can be punished.
"We can't just get out of it now." Shen Yuzhou said.
"If you want to find out where they hide their blades, there are more than 100 men in this village, so where else are the places like this to hide soldiers?" Xiao Yunjiao said what he thought of.
Shen Yuzhou frowned and said: "I don't know when Wu Da will come back, calculate the day when the letter should arrive in the capital, I hope they will move faster, and I also hope that they can see the mark I left on the letter." ”
"When did you mark the letter?" Xiao Yunjiao thought about it carefully, and the letter didn't seem to be anything special.
"I secretly picked a wild fruit on the tree and hid it, the fruit was extremely sour, and the juice would show traces under the fire, and I used it to secretly make a mark while Wu Da was not paying attention." Shen Yuzhou revealed it lightly, in fact, he also took a big risk at that time, but fortunately Wu Da didn't find out.
"Next...... It's up to my uncle and theirs. ”
Xiao Yunjiao said: "I have been missing for so long, Nanhe will fly pigeons to the capital for help, but they don't dare to report too much hope, it is not easy for them to hide the identity of Izuxiu." ”
Shen Yuzhou turned over, "The time, the place, the people, we don't have it, and let's calm down and see what happens next." ”
……
Under the cover of night, a group of lightly armed and simple teams shuttled on the official road, and they had been on the road for three days in a row.
Walking to the official post fifty miles outside Yunzhou, the leading man in black dismounted and trotted in, and took out a token from his arms.
"The military department is on an errand, go and change horses."
The official messenger of the official post did not dare to slack off when he saw the token, and hurriedly replaced the horses ridden by a few people with fat and strong ones in the backyard stables.
"Childe, this is not far from Yunzhou, shall we enter the city overnight or enter the city again tomorrow morning?" The man in black, too, asked the leader.
The man was dressed in black, and his handsome face had lost the look of a hippie smile in the past, and was replaced by a frowning brow, which was Fu Mingyuan.
Fu Mingyuan frowned and thought for a while, "There is too much movement in the city at night, let's rest here, and as soon as the city gate opens tomorrow, we will enter the city immediately." ”
When Uncle Zhao told him about the kidnapping of Shen Yuzhou and the princess, he was worried about the news that Shen Houye fell off a cliff and disappeared, and he was anxious when he knew the news.
is good to go to Jiazhou for the summer as a messenger, and he can still treat people as falling off the cliff, not to mention, even the princess has become his concubine! This time it's even better, the two of them were tied up in the bandits' den!
Fu Mingyuan was really out of line, so he turned around and went to find Shen Yuzhou's father, Shen Tingshan.
Although Shen Tingshan said that his legs and feet were inconvenient and his body was not as good as before, his mind was still sober and understood, and he was about to enter the palace to face the saint. But before he left the gate of the Shen Mansion, he heard from the porter that there was a son outside the door, claiming to be a guest of the Princess's Mansion!
Thinking of this, Fu Mingyuan looked at Jiang Yiheng, who was weak and unable to do it just after getting off the horse, and said with concern, "Can Mr. Jiang still hold on?" ”
Jiang Yiheng pulled the corners of his mouth, "It's okay to be down." ”
It's just that the back is not as straight as before when walking.
Fu Mingyuan saw that he could still hold on, so he asked, "After entering the city tomorrow, what are the plans of the gentleman?" ”
He was not familiar with this person, but when he came to the door, he was holding the token of the eldest princess, so that people had to believe him twice.
"After we enter the city, go find Xu You." Jiang Yiheng explained: "This person is an upright person, and he will not be co-opted for a long time after taking office as the prefect, we have the token of the Ministry of War, and it is not a problem to ask him to borrow troops." ”
Fu Mingyuan frowned, "The Wulian Mountain Range is vast, and it is located at the intersection of Yunzhou and Jiazhou, even if there is a Yuzhou to leave a secret signal all the way, it is easier than looking for a needle in a haystack." What's more, no one has been found in Jiazhou, there must be a problem, in what name are we going to search the mountain? ”
Jiang Yiheng spat out a word, "Wait." ”
What are you waiting for? They drove overnight and changed horses several times, didn't they want to rescue people before the kidnappers received the money and tore up the tickets?
Fu Mingyuan was very worried, he was not as calm as Jiang Yiheng, "What are you waiting for?" ”
"Wait for the kidnappers to release themselves."
