Chapter 294: Arriving in the capital
The next journey was much smoother, perhaps because of the annihilation of the fifty people, which made the people behind them jealous and stopped their own death.
When it came to the next larger county, Lianyi and his party lived directly in the best inn, ready to rest here for five days, not in a hurry, Steward Li and Mrs. Li didn't dare to let one go, and went to live in the room quietly, without a trace of reluctance.
Ripple saw that the two of them and the remaining two guards were still familiar with each other, and she didn't embarrass them, she just ordered Luo Ying to call Wen Lu and the captain of the guards over.
"After leaving this city, we will enter the confines of the capital, which is at the foot of the Son of Heaven, and the people there are the best at reading dishes.
We have been dodging all the way, and now it seems that the other party should stop, so we also have to change ourselves, otherwise it will really be a poor relative who comes to fight the autumn wind, which will make the people of the Li Mansion look down on us even more. ”
As he spoke, he took out two silver tickets worth five hundred taels from his sleeve pocket, pushed them in front of Wu Meng, the captain of the guard, and directly commanded:
"People rely on clothes and horses to rely on saddles, you take the big guy to change his outfit, prepare another set for washing, order a new carriage, and match my identity, if your swords and sabers need to be repaired or replaced with new ones, they will be done together."
The captain immediately thanked him:
"Thank you Miss for your care, Wu Meng will do it."
"Keep a low profile, don't let people keep an eye on you."
"Yes, Miss!"
Wu Meng put away the silver ticket, leaving half of the people to guard the young lady, and the other half to go out with him to run errands.
"Aunt Wen, you and Luo Ying together, go and make a few new dresses for ourselves, preferably the style that is popular in the capital now, but it can't be compared to the people of the Li Mansion, I want them to flatter me, I don't dare to show my face, one person prepares two sets of jewelry, as long as it doesn't go over."
This time, Wen Lu was directly given two thousand taels of silver tickets, and women's things will not be cheap.
"Miss don't worry, I'll do it myself, I'll go out in the past two days, so I'll let Minmin follow Miss closely."
"Aunt Wen, don't worry, I'm not a child, I won't run around."
Ripple grinned, after arriving here, her divine sense had already scanned the entire county seat, and after there was nothing abnormal, she decided to sprinkle silver here.
"When spending money, avoid Steward Li and Mrs. Li, as well as those two guards."
Ripple added.
"Miss, don't worry!"
Wenlu was relatively steady and careful, and it took three days to get everything done.
The night before departure, everyone changed their shotguns and changed their guns, and the ripples brought together all the people who came with them to make the last arrangement before entering Beijing.
"You escorted Miss Ben all the way to the capital, I am grateful, although you have all sold yourself to the Wu family, but I don't want to treat you badly, after entering the capital, it is still a crisis, not only for me, but also for you, the capital not only has open guns but also hidden arrows, I hope everyone will be vigilant."
After finishing speaking, Luo Ying followed Ripple's instructions and gave each guard a silver ticket of one hundred taels.
"This is what you deserve, after Miss Ben's affairs in the capital are completed, you will have another reward, return to Jiangnan, you can redeem your deed of sale, this is Miss Ben's promise."
Ripple didn't forget to draw a big pie for these people, after all, these people survived because of her.
"I'll swear allegiance to Miss to the death!"
Despite the dangers along the way, the young lady did not give up any of the seriously injured guards, and for them, this was the best result.
Leaving the county seat on the second day, Steward Li and Mrs. Li looked at the new team and found that only the four of them looked out of place.
Later, every time they went to a large town, they would add one or two chests to their team, and the things they bought gradually increased.
Luo Ying saw the beautiful jewelry head, and wanted to buy it to dress up her own lady, before keeping filial piety, the lady's dress has always been very bland, and there is no need to dress up in the Zhuangzi, after coming out, she was chased and killed all the way, where can she take care of these, and now she is going to see the Li family, so she naturally has to dress up well.
Seven days later, Ripple and his party successfully entered the gate of the capital, at this time the size of their team was not small, adding up to ten cars before and after, which were full of boxes, and just like that, they advanced with the team entering the city.
Steward Li and Mrs. Li were excited to cry at this time, and finally returned to the capital alive.
Steward Li didn't dare to leave the ripples first, so he could only send the only two remaining guards to the Li Mansion to report the news, and he and Mrs. Li slowly advanced with the team, beside the ripples' carriage, and whispered about the situation in the capital.
The ripples on the car had already released the divine consciousness of the foundation building period, observing the entire capital, and finally the divine consciousness stopped in the direction of the imperial city, and a trace of mockery flashed in his eyes.
An emperor who is bent on seeking immortality, the true dragon qi that protects the imperial city has been swallowed by a third of the black evil qi, and if it continues, when the golden true dragon qi is completely devoured, this dynasty is probably about to end.
The end of a dynasty is nothing new, the poor people of the world, I am afraid that they will experience another melee of dynasties, she can imagine how many people will die at that time, and the strong resentment nourishes the evil spirit.
Coupled with the fact that the original body was replaced before and became the culprit of bearing all these crimes, the death was so ugly, and the resentment was even greater.
This time, she came to the capital three years later than the original, and she was quite well prepared, hoping that it would be too late.
"Miss, the Li Mansion has arrived!"
Luo Ying whispered to remind the ripples of closing her eyes and recuperating her mind.
"Miss, they only opened the side door to greet you."
Wen Lu's voice came from outside the carriage.
"I'm a distinguished guest of their Li Mansion, how can I go through the side door and trouble Aunt Wen to open the main door."
"Good!"
Wen Lu had long known from Steward Li's mouth that the name of the Li Mansion might be able to bluff people outside, but it was the bottom existence in the capital, not to mention that these people were worried about Miss's family wealth, and it was not a good thing, so she didn't have any worries, raised her foot and kicked hard, and the red Zhumen was directly kicked open.
The gatekeeper of the Li Mansion still wanted to make a few rewards, even if he opened the side door, it was only half open, who knew that people didn't want to go through the side door at all.
After the heavy gate was kicked open, Wen Lu just waved his hand, and the guards of the Wu family stepped forward and removed the door, Chu Liangchen snorted coldly, and as soon as he raised the small whip in his hand, the horse stepped into the gate, followed by the rest of the carriage.
Because of the movement here, there were many onlookers around, and they were all surprised, there was such an arrogant person, and Min Min, who was left behind, stood outside the door and said loudly:
"My young lady is a cousin of the Li Mansion, who has lived in Jiangnan for a long time, and this time in order to understand the difficulties of the Li Mansion, she brought all the family property to the Li Mansion as a guest, and by the way, she will hold a ceremony, and invite all your neighbors to watch the ceremony."
As soon as the words fell, a large handful of copper coins were sprinkled, and they were sprinkled three times in a row, and the front of the Li Mansion was very lively for a while, and the news of Wu Lianyi's arrival in the Li Mansion also spread, and at the same time, her wealth was also spread.
