Chapter Eighty-Six: People Are on a Journey
The chariots and horses traveled all the way to the southwest. Probably because of the tight schedule, Mo Gongzi did not take the luxurious carriage that pulled the style, but put on a lighter car, without any flashy decorations throughout the body, and it looked much simpler than the former from the outside.
As for the feeling of sitting on it, it will definitely not be very comfortable in Dayu without a shock absorbing device.
They were no more than twenty people, and they drove two carriages, one for people and one for luggage. In addition to Mo Gongzi and her, only Wei Cang and more than a dozen personal guards, as well as Xing Yi and Xing Jiu, accompanied him.
Xue Langzhong and Wei Hao, the camp leader of Mengxue Camp, originally set off at the same time as them, but they had other important tasks to do, and as soon as they left the valley, they parted ways with everyone and disappeared.
The three guards of the sun, moon and stars have always been stationed in the valley, and they have never gone out with Mo Gongzi. This time, Xing Yi and Xing Jiu were named and brought out by Mo Gongzi, no matter how steady they were, they still couldn't hide the joy on their faces.
Luo Qianhuai's mood was not so good. She didn't know how to ride a horse, so she wanted to ride a car comfortably, but Mo Gongzi didn't know which string was out of order, so he forced her to ride with him, but instead matched Xing Yi and Xing Jiu, who were full of expectations, to ride a horse.
Luo Qianhuai lifted the heavy silk curtain of galloping horse flowers and looked out through the window covered with double plain veil, but the grass-colored trees had changed from withered yellow at the time of departure to mottled yellow-green, indicating the temperature difference between the north and the south.
The fire-like sunset erased from the sky, and in the blink of an eye it was already twilight, but there were still no cities or villages to be seen.
Luo Qianhuai guessed that he could only stay in the wild tonight. Eight of the ten days I went out, and I don't know why Mo Gongzi, who has always been exquisite, deliberately avoided the town and picked up some deserted paths to walk, so that the comfort of this publicly-funded trip was greatly reduced.
While thinking about it, she couldn't help but glared fiercely at the person sitting on the side with his eyes closed and pondering, who thought that he just opened his eyes at this time, and happened to be facing her.
Luo Qianhuai immediately turned his head. Her two angels did their best, all kinds of flattery, made a lot of food, said a few baskets of good words, and contributed the recipe of homemade gold creation medicine in vain, but the other party never agreed to open the handcuffs, and the banter in her eyes was not too obvious, it was simply psychopathic and unreasonable.
A hint of an almost imperceptible smile appeared in the corner of Mo Gongzi's eyes, and it disappeared in an instant. The sound of horses' hooves came from far and near, and Wei Cang's face appeared outside the window:
"Childe." He said: "Ten miles ahead, there is a boundary of Xinzhou. A few miles after entering Fenzhou, it is Yungang Village...... Could you please indicate whether you are camping at this moment, or at the foot of Yungang Village? ”
Mo Gongzi's gaze swept over Luo Qianhuai's face, and seeing her expectant look, he said quietly: "Speed up and go to Yungang Village for another night's rest." ”
Wei Cang received the order, and sent someone Pegasus to fight the front station without mentioning it.
When people are on the go, their needs become simple and straightforward. Luo Qianhuai was overjoyed when he thought of the warm bed and hot bath water, and there was a smile on his lips and eyes.
"Tea." A cold voice fell into her ears. Luo Qianhuai immediately smiled, and reluctantly lifted the teapot wrapped in a thick silk cotton sleeve to keep warm, weighed it slightly, and only poured himself half a cup and put it back:
"The tea is gone. The Lord should bear with it for a while, and then boil the water when you get to the place. Otherwise, if you stop and delay, I am afraid that you will not be able to catch up when it is dark. ”
Mo Gongzi looked at the tea soup in her cup, his eyes turned around the teapot and his own cup, and looked up at her fixedly, noncommittal.
Luo Qianhuai has completely relaxed since he knew that the other party didn't want his life. She figured it out, in the eyes of Mo Gongzi and others, appearance, speech, and acting skills are all false, and what can really save her life depends on her medical skills.
The so-called one trick is fresh, eat all over the world, that's it. She is not only the only doctor in Dayu who has both Chinese and Western studies, but also has countless prescriptions in her mind in her previous life, so she is naturally a strange commodity. In comparison, that Jinchuang medicine prescription was just a drop in the ocean, and it was nothing at all.
Since this is the case, she must take the money of the divine doctor, and she can't let this one be bullied because she is young and afraid of death, at least she has to fight for the same treatment as Xue Wen.
The first thing is that you can no longer serve tea and pour water casually, and let people call you as a person.
Luo Qianhuai ignored her, picked up the cup by herself, and took a sip. This pot of tea has been left for most of the day, and it has already become warm and cool, and the taste is really quite ordinary, but compared with people who don't have tea, it has become extraordinarily mellow.
It's strange to say, that Mo Gongzi seems to have really eaten her, and he endured it silently, just glanced at her a few times from time to time, and never said a word.
The wheels rolled, and soon they crossed the boundary monument of Xinzhou, and the field of vision was gradually filled with the outline of green mountains.
The pale blue sky sank into the dim clouds, and visibility became less and less. But there are more pedestrians on the road with the naked eye.
The towing family was in a group of three or five, all of them were ragged, their eyes were empty, and when they saw the convoy coming, they all shrank and avoided the side, which was completely different from what they had seen in Xinzhou before.
Luo Qianhuai noticed that the direction they were heading in was the opposite of Mo Gongzi's convoy, and they were all going to Xinzhou.
Mo Gongzi personally rolled up the curtain on the other side, and after just one glance, he understood what she was thinking.
"The front radius of more than 200 miles is the fief of the king of Fenyang." He reminded softly: "Yu Shou, the king of Fenyang, is the nephew of His Majesty today, and the fifth grandson of Yu Chao, the seventh son of Emperor Wen of Great Yu. ”
Luo Qianhuai was slightly stunned, and suddenly understood: "You mean, the king of Fenyang does not care about the people, so the people under his rule want to flee to Xinzhou?" ”
Mo Gongzi glanced at her appreciatively: "You can see through it at all." That Yu Shou is not only unsympathetic to the people, but simply mediocre and tyrannical. It was only a year before he attacked Fenyang, and he stirred up Fenyang's resentment, and the people were not happy. ”
When he mentioned the name of the king of Fenyang, he was extremely casual and did not have any respect.
Luo Qianhuai didn't care about this. She remembered the information she had gotten earlier, and couldn't help frowning: "But since they escaped, there will be no guide." I'm afraid that if I finally arrived in Xinzhou, I may not be able to enter the city and settle down. ”
The smile on Mo Gongzi's face deepened. "Normally, it does. When it comes to the fiefdoms of the princes and kings, most people will act cautiously, not to mention that there are still very few kings of Fenyang, and the princes and kings who have not been removed from the country since Emperor Wen passed on to this day. ”
