6 Chapter 6

Han Mufei shouted to the big man in the convoy who looked like the leader.

The convoy was followed by four wagons carrying men, and all but five large men riding horses.

Seeing that these people were all wearing strong uniforms, Han Mufei estimated that this should be a dart team, and the one sitting in the carriage was estimated to be the employer.

"Ladies and gentlemen, we are the people who escaped from the capital last night and want to go to the next town."

Han Mufei replied like this, pulled his younger brother behind him, and at the same time stretched out one hand to his waist and held the knife, feeling apprehensive and worried.

"People from the capital? Which family's ......" The leader rode up on a horse, stopped in front of Han Mufei, looked up and down, his eyes fell on her embroidered shoes, and returned to Han Mufei's face: "Which lady and young master are you?" ”

Disguise failed!

Han Mufei also knew that he was not ready in a hurry, but he was ready, unless a girl is a man, how can it be so easy for a woman to dress up as a man and deceive people?

It was to hear the leader call himself "lady", smiled awkwardly, and at the same time measured in his heart whether he wanted to tell the other party his identity truthfully.

"May I ask where is the uncle?"

"We are from the kamikaze dart game, and I am the leader of this dart team, and my surname is Xiao Dazhuang."

Xiao Dazhuang saw that they were two weak ladies and children, and they were injured again, so they were not afraid, and told them their identities happily.

Do you want to tell him that you are from the Han clan in the capital?

But the owner of the dart team hasn't shown up yet.

I don't know what the identity of this master family is, in case this master family is a family that does not deal with the Han family, and if she says her true identity, she and her younger brother will not be able to get any benefits at this time, and they may even cause trouble.

In addition, judging from Uncle Han's actions yesterday, the rebels are not very fond of seeing the Han family, although I don't know what the impression of the people of this kamikaze dart bureau is of the Han family, but what if they reveal their whereabouts to the rebels?

"We are the children of the Mu family in the capital, yesterday we encountered turmoil, and we were afraid that something would happen, so we escaped from the city with my father and my mother, but unfortunately I got separated from my father and mother after leaving the city, and I went to ...... to ......"

When it comes to which shop in the capital has the most delicious dim sum, which cloth workshop has the best silk and satin, and which study has the most up-to-date books, Han Mufei is the most familiar, but when it comes to the nearest place that can be reached along the official road of the southeast gate of the capital, Han Mufei doesn't know.

It's no wonder that she thought that she would be a girl from a family in this life, eating and drinking and waiting for death, and she would not take half a step out of the capital, how could she pay attention to the name of the nearest town on the official road outside the capital?

Even if she was interested in the great river, she couldn't find any maps to see.

"When we get to Changping Town, we can find our father and mother." has calmed down from the changes, and after the initial ignorance has passed, Brother Chu has regained his agility when he was in the house, and when he saw that Sister A couldn't speak, he immediately answered for her.

"Yes, I don't know if Uncle Xiao's convoy will pass through Changping Town?"

"That's a coincidence, we ......"

Xiao Dazhuang wanted to say by the way, but the master sitting in the carriage lifted the curtain, glanced at Han Mufei and Han Hechu, and twisted his beard: "Which Mu family?" Why hasn't the old man heard of it? ”

Han Mufei was about to answer, he felt the ground tremble slightly, and there was a faint sound that was almost indiscernible, and when he heard it again, Han Mufei's face changed, and he pulled Xiao Chu to retreat quickly to the forest next to the official road: "This lord, Uncle Xiao, there are horses only coming towards this end, and it is estimated that there are hundreds." ”

The sound was the same as the sound of the city breaking yesterday.

Uncle Xiao also heard it, his face changed, and he ordered the convoy: "Hurry, drive the carriage into the forest immediately." ”

The main family knew that it was very important, so he jumped out of the carriage and left the official road first.

The people of the dart team pushed one after another, and neatly moved the four carriages to the forest, fearing that the comers would not be good, and deliberately walked further and stayed away from the official road to avoid trouble.

Soon, the sound of iron hooves rolled in, earth-shattering, Han Mufei, who hid behind the tree with his younger brother, put down all the burdens in case of early on, held the wooden crossbow tightly in his hand, and watched a horse gallop from the official road, and was puzzled.

This is, rebels? Or reinforcements?

"Look at the flag, it's Cheng'anhou's army!"

"I'm afraid that I received the news of King Li's rebellion and went back to the city to save the driver!"

"At this hour, I'm afraid it's too late!"

After the people of the dart team saw clearly what kind of army it was, they did not hide, stood up straight from the forest, and watched the thousands of cavalry soldiers pass by the official road and gallop towards the imperial capital.

"We came out in time yesterday, and this Cheng'an Hou returned to Beijing to face King Li, and it is estimated that there will be another bloody storm." Uncle Xiao stood beside the main family and sighed, "It's bitter that after leaving Beijing yesterday, I heard that King Li was in turmoil, and I was worried about the sons and gentlemen who were worried about their families turning back." ”

Han Mufei only knew at this time that this group of darts was part of the people who spent the night in the temple last night.

In addition, there are many people in the capital who left the capital yesterday before the city was broken, and when they heard that something had happened in the capital, they were worried about their relatives at home and could not take care of anything else, so they hurried home this morning.

Now that the situation in the capital is going to be chaotic, I am afraid that it will worsen than yesterday, and Han Mufei doesn't know if he should be glad that he escaped in time with the Han clan and saved his life for the time being.

The master of the family, Master Sun, who hired Xiao Dazhuang and his entourage to escort him, was not a native of the capital, but a merchant from other places who prepared goods from the capital, so he was glad that he left the imperial capital at the most appropriate time and saved his life and goods.

After hearing that their convoy was also going to Changping Town, Han Mufei tried his best to persuade Master Sun to bring him along.

"Master Sun, we are both fallen people at the end of the world, since you are on the way, can you help us bring our sister and brother together?"

"I'm not related to you, so why should I help you?" Master Sun was disdainful.

"Master Sun!" Han Mufei was embarrassed, bit his lip, and had to ask for help from Xiao Dazhuang, who looked good at talking, "Uncle Xiao, we are willing to take out all the silver taels on our bodies and buy the safety of the road from the capital to Changping Town, do you think it is feasible?" ”

"No, you can't. Leader Xiao is the dart team I hired, but I paid the money first, don't give me a long-winded piece of this wooden lady. "Master Sun doesn't do it.

"Master Sun, I think their two sisters and brothers are also pitiful, and it is only two hours away from Changping Town, so it's better to take them with you, right?"

"Master Sun, we promise not to cause trouble, just let us follow." Han Mufei watched Xiao Dazhuang speak for them, took off the purse on his waist with interest, and asked his younger brother to take the purse off, and then poured out the money and silver in his purse and put it into Brother Chu'er's purse, hesitated for a moment, took half a tael of silver and twelve copper coins back and pinched it, and then handed it to Master Sun, and said suddenly: "This is all the silver that my father gave us when we escaped from the capital, and gave it to you, Master Sun, you will be kind and give us a ride, right?" ”

Master Sun glanced at Han Mufei, unceremoniously swept over the purse, took out all the silver and counted it: a silver ticket of ten taels, a silver ingot of two taels, and thirty-four copper coins.

Old Man Sun brushed his beard, and looked at the things on Han Mufei's back: "What are you carrying?" ”

"It's all our clothes." Han Mufei hesitated for a moment, but he still didn't dare to say that he had a crossbow in his bow bag, "There are also some pots brought out from home." ”

"All four baggage?"

"The two burdens are the clothes of my brother and me, and the other two burdens are the clothes of my father and brother." Han Mufei said as he put down the bags on his back, untied his mouth and showed it to Master Sun, and at the same time asked Brother Chu to untie it and give them a look.

When she repacked it last night, she sorted it out, separated Master Wu's old clothes, and wrapped them separately in the four openings where the baggage would always face outward.

After all, she still has valuable pearls and hairpins, and a few sums of silver, so when people ask, they say that they are all clothes, hoping to fool the past, so as not to make people want to see money.

At this time, Han Mufei had to congratulate himself on his foresight.

"When we were separated from Daddy and Brother, they left their clothes behind, so I took them with them."

Master Sun glanced at it, saw that it was indeed some old clothes, and saw the iron pot that Han Mufei carried with him, so he did not comment, and then saw Brother Chu dressed as a rich man, looked at Han Mufei, and then looked at Brother Chu, and frowned, "Since you are a sister and brother, why are you not as good as a younger brother as a lady?" Nondescript. ”

"Brother Chu is the youngest Langjun in our family, and our family naturally gave him the best, so it's not strange to dress better than me."

Han Mufei pretended to be timid and said, "Master Sun, did you promise to take us with you?" Daddy and Brother made an appointment with us, if we get separated, we will meet in Changping Town, if you take us to Changping Town safely, my Daddy and Brother will definitely be grateful to you. ”

"Yes, Master Sun, since this wooden girl has given an honorarium, there are so many people in our dart team, it is not a big deal to bring two more people." Xiao Dazhuang said.

Ordinary dart guards are only a two-hour journey, and they only need to spend one or two silver, and Master Sun has already gotten enough.

"Okay, then the old man will reluctantly make it difficult and do a good deed every day." Master Sun said, put away all the silver taels, and returned to the official road with the convoy.

"Thank you, Master Sun."

Han Mufei thanked Master Sun, followed the convoy back to the official road, Xiao Dazhuang asked them to follow behind the second carriage, put all their bags on the car, and sat on the wood on the side, watching the convoy slowly set off, Han Mufei secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

Finally, there is no need to sleep in the wilderness, worrying about encountering some villains or unpredictable accidents.

Since Johei Town is the closest town to Kyoto, if the Han family stops along the way, they may still be able to find them.

Probably caused by the vision of the capital, the official road to Changping Town was very calm, and after resting twice on the way, Han Mufei followed the convoy to Changping Town smoothly.

It should be that someone who knew about the turmoil in the capital had already been to Changping Town, and the atmosphere in the town was very tense, and many people on the street were talking in low voices, and their faces were panicked.

The dart team guarding Master Sun and his goods will only stop in Changping Town for a while, and will immediately set off for the next city government after eating, so in front of a restaurant, after Han Mufei thanked Xiao Dazhuang, before Master Sun asked, he took things and left with his younger brother.

"Sister, I'm hungry."

Knowing that calling Brother Ah was just to cover up, Brother Chu called Sister back again, and Han Mufei didn't bother to dwell on it.

"I'm hungry too." Han Mufei currently has only half two pieces of silver and twelve copper coins that can be seen by others, and it is enough to eat one meal.

Originally, Han Mufei planned to go to the inn to sip a good meal as if he was in the capital, but he had to be safer after thinking about it, and finally found a small stall, bought two meat buns and two bowls of white porridge with twelve copper coins, and asked the diners on the stall about anyone in Changping Town today, or whether he had seen the passerby who looked like the wife and son of the family.

"Hey, you guys just escaped from the capital, right?"

The diners who were also eating steamed buns and drinking white porridge at the stall next door looked at Han Mufei's sister and brother with sympathy, "Tsk, it's really a sin, and I don't know how many people died in the city." ”

"Do you still have the heart to sympathize with the people of the city? If the capital is in chaos, our people will definitely not get better. ”

"Yes."

"Uncle and aunt, did you see the carriage coming from the direction of the capital today?"

"Yes!"

"Really? Any idea where they are? ”
