018 Arriving at Wei Customs, there are groups of refugees
Ji Shu's face was firm, and if she thought about it carefully, she did have to go.
She had to remind the eldest brother to be careful of being plotted three ways when fighting, and not to be a eunuch for some reason.
Ji Chengfeng said with a straight face: "No! I disagree! It's too dangerous! And what reason do you have to go? β
"The Hou Mansion has a medicinal herb shop in Qinghe Town behind Wei Customs, so I said that there was a problem with the shop and went to rectify it."
Ji Shu pulled Ji Chengfeng's sleeve and shook it softly.
"Good big brother~ Please, let me go! I have bought all the military supplies, and if I can't give them away and sell them, I won't lose a lot! β
Qin Dangjia didn't overdo it and took a sip of tea.
Ji Chengfeng he understands, wife slave and sister slave, the most painful woman begged him, and within a moment she would disarm and surrender.
Sure enough, Ji Chengfeng confessed, "Okay, okay!" You can go, and I'll send someone to follow you. β
Ji Shu tightened his brows.
Let the big brother's people follow?
If he let his people hear it, he told the eldest brother to be careful of being attacked in the next three ways, with the temperament of the eldest brother, will he misunderstand anything, and then
e
g Dead Qi Ye......
"I have Qingtan with me, nothing will happen."
Qingtan was the secret guard who went to check Jiang Fu for her before, and she was also a girl with extremely high martial arts.
"Weihaiguan is mixed, and a woman in Qingtan may not be able to deal with everyone."
Seeing that Ji Chengfeng had made up his mind, Ji Shu could only reluctantly agree.
"When will you leave?"
"Naturally, the sooner the better, in recent years, I don't know when the snow will close the mountain, and the road will be even more difficult to walk."
"What about in three days?"
"Okay, I'll immediately ask the dart master to prepare food, clothing, and bags, and we will meet at the dart game in three days."
After discussing everything, Ji Shu left the dart game.
When she returned to the Hou Mansion, she told Xi Tao about it, and the Hou Mansion couldn't miss her eyeliner, so Xi Tao couldn't go with her.
"I've been away these days, you take care of yourself, and if you're bullied, hand it over to your brother. If Chang Miao shows up at the shop, you can briefly explain the situation to her, and wait for me to come back and discuss. β
Xi Tao nodded vigorously, "Miss, don't worry, the slave will help you keep Changle Courtyard!" β
Three days later, Ji Shu led Qingtan to the Dragon Dao Dart Bureau, and everything was already ready.
Ji Chengfeng's secret guard for her is named Cheng'an, and she has always been the person by Ji Chengfeng's side, and she is very familiar with Ji Shu.
"Young lady!"
Cheng An saluted respectfully, revealing a mouthful of big white teeth.
"Cheng'an will give you a car on the road, and if there is anything, he will go to the people of the dart bureau and say, be careful on the road, and have a safe journey."
Ji Chengfeng rubbed Ji Shu's head, took out a safety buckle and handed it to her.
"Your sister-in-law begged for you, wear it well."
"Thank you, big brother, thank you sister-in-law for me."
Ji Shu hugged Ji Chengfeng, and stepped on the bench to get into the carriage.
They left in the early morning when the gates were opened.
Ji Chengfeng chose the best carriage for her, it looked ordinary on the outside, very spacious on the inside, and was cushioned on the ground and couch, so that the carriage could sleep comfortably no matter how bumpy it was.
As soon as he left the capital, Ji Shu lifted the curtain of the car with high interest to look at the scenery outside.
Qingtan flipped over the charcoal on the stove and reminded Ji Shu: "It's windy outside, Miss be careful not to hurt your body." β
"It's okay, I've left the capital once when I've grown so old, and I want to see the scenery."
Cheng An, who was driving the horse, said with a smile: "It's a pity that we have to take the mountain road this time, and it is estimated that it is all snow at a glance." If you can walk the official road, the lady can see a lot of scenery. β
Ji Shu lowered the curtain and leaned on the body, "Cheng'an, with our drive, how long will it take to get to Wei Customs?" β
"At least a month."
Now, in December, excluding the time spent in Weihaiguan, she will not be able to return to Beijing until at least February next year.
The delay of two months is to let Qi Chengxu and Jiang Fu get away with them for two more months.
Ji Shu lifted the blanket on her body, hoping that Qi Ye would be worth her time wasting these two months.
And two months......
I don't know if Mrs. Ji's body can last until she comes back.
β¦β¦
As Cheng An said, this way passed, in addition to snow or snow when the curtain was lifted, sometimes when heavy snow blocked the road, it was necessary to shovel snow for a day or two.
Ji Shu is pampered, and this month can be said to have endured all the hardships, and when she finally saw the gate of Qinghe Town, she breathed a sigh of relief.
The city gate was closed, and the leading Qin Dangjia called for a long time before soldiers came to answer the door.
They watched the group vigilantly, their guns ready to fire, "What people?" β
"We are merchants, passing through here, and the shopkeeper is in the carriage behind, and it is freezing cold, and we want to go into the city and find a place to live."
This is a predetermined statement, this batch of grain and grass is really sensitive at the moment, and it must be sent to the barracks unscathed.
The guards discussed for a while, came out and asked for papers, and after confirming that they were correct, they let them in.
The city was quiet, silent.
Ji Shu lifted the curtain of the car and looked out, his pupils shrank.
In the midst of the heavy snow, countless people were lying on both sides of the avenue, including children, women, and old people.
Some people can still hug each other to keep warm, and some people are motionless, probably frozen to death.
"Noble! Elegant! Please save my daughter, she hasn't eaten in three days, please give me a grain of rice! The slave family is grateful! β
A woman suddenly rushed to the side of the road, the child in her arms had a blue face and was breathing very weakly.
She stopped in front of Ji Shu's carriage and kowtowed.
Ji Shu's throat was dry, "Qingtan...... How much more dry food do we have with us? β
Qingtan turned out, Ji Shu put on a coat, lifted the curtain, and handed it to the woman.
"Thank you, noble! Thank you, noble! β
"Noble! Reward us a little, nobleman! β
"Nobleman!"
Suddenly, all the people on the side of the road surrounded him, and the carriage suddenly became unable to move an inch.
Ji Shu calmly asked Cheng'an to take the dry food down, and the group of people immediately grabbed it, and the burden was empty after a while.
When he wanted to ask for more, Ji Shu's carriage had already run away.
She looked at the mess behind her from the car window, wrinkled her eyebrows and said, "It turns out that Weihai Customs not only has a shortage of military supplies, but the people have no food to eat...... Qingtan, you go and check if there is a relief porridge field in the city. I have brought only a lot more food, and as long as I can survive the cold winter, it will get better. β
"When the young lady is settled, the slave will go to check immediately."
As the carriage drove into the middle of the city, there were far fewer refugees on the roadside, and the pedestrians were much more brightly dressed.
Ji Shu lowered his eyelids and set the room silently.
Qingtan was ordered to ask about the porridge field, so Cheng'an accompanied Ji Shu out of the door.
The two of them walked slowly towards the mess they had come.
As soon as he arrived nearby, Ji Shu heard someone shouting: "The barracks have distributed food!" Go get it! The barracks have been stockedβ"
Refugees poured in like a tide, and Ji Shu and Cheng'an were squeezed out of the crowd.
She put on her hood and followed the crowd to a place, and sure enough, it was the barracks to put food, and there were a few soldiers maintaining order on the side.
It's just that compared to the refugees, their faces are not far behind.
"Don't squeeze it, one by one! None of them cut in line! β
