Chapter Twenty-Four: Return to Sheep's Head Mountain
After listening to Zhou Anmin's story, Zhu Shencone immediately laughed.
"So Li Hu's luck is not bad?"
"Hehe, this kid's luck is indeed good, as long as this kid doesn't make a big deal in the future, and hides in Sheep's Head Mountain, this matter is almost like this. But you have to remind this kid that the name Li Hu must not be used anymore, those mine supervisors who have no eggs are not good men and women, and after suffering such a secret loss, you must know that he is hiding in Sheep's Head Mountain and it is difficult to guarantee that there will be no other actions. ”
Zhu Shencone nodded, what Zhou Anmin said was reasonable, he had to remind Li Hu when he went back to pass by Sheep's Head Mountain this time. However, Zhu Shencone was still a little worried about Jinyiwei's side, and immediately asked Jinyiwei's attitude towards this matter.
Zhou Anmin smiled and waved his hand, he reassured Zhu Shencone that although Jinyiwei knew about this matter, he had no intention of interfering.
Although the Jinyi Guards and the mine supervisors are both working for the emperor, the Jinyi Guards who have been suppressed by the eunuchs in the palace over the years, the Jinyi Guards have a very poor sense of the eunuchs. It is precisely like this, when the mine supervisor asked Jin Yiwei for help, Jin Yiwei didn't take it to heart at all, let alone do it carefully, otherwise how could there be such a result.
As for using the topic to make a small report to the emperor, Jin Yiwei naturally would not do so.
No matter how to say that the mine supervisor is not a person, there is a big eunuch above the mine supervisor, this matter is not only not good for Jinyiwei, but will cause a commotion, so it is most appropriate for Jinyiwei to do this by turning a blind eye.
At this time, Zhu Shencone is completely relieved, Li Hu's identity is no problem, and he holds Li Hu's lifeline in his hands, coupled with his kindness to Li Hu and Li Hu's upright temperament, it seems that this person can be used.
Thinking of this, Zhu Shencone had a smile on his face, and he also had a plan in his heart.
Originally, Zhu Shencone planned to stay here for a few days, but he didn't expect Li Hu's news to be heard so easily.
Now that there is news, and then calculate the time of the return trip, Zhu Shencone is ready to return to Zhao Village tomorrow.
told his sister and brother-in-law his plans, although his sister was a little reluctant and wanted him to stay at home for a few more days, but his brother-in-law Zhou Anmin thought it would be better for Zhu Shencone to go back early.
It's getting colder these days, and after the first snowfall, there are two more light snowfalls, and it looks like this year's heavy snow is earlier than usual. It will take several days to return to Pingyang from Zhaocun, and this road is not very easy to walk, so it is safer to let Zhu Shencone go back earlier.
Although she knew in her heart that what her husband said was reasonable, Zhu Xiuer was still reluctant to let Zhu Shencone leave, took her brother's hand and said a lot of words, and took out a shoulder and gave it to Zhu Shencone, which Zhu Xiuer had already helped her brother do, and she wanted to wait for him to give it to him, who thought that she would leave after only two days, and the next goodbye would probably be next year.
After staying overnight and having breakfast the next day, Zhu Xiuer put on a burden the things she prepared for her younger brother, and told him to be careful all the way. Brother-in-law Zhou Anmin went out early in the morning, and when Zhu Shencone was saying goodbye to his sister, he came back in a hurry.
Tell Zhu Shencone that he found a carriage for Zhu Shencone to go to Yuxia Pass, and this carriage is one of the convoys to deliver supplies to Yuxia Pass. He had already greeted the handlebar of the leader, Zhu Shencone could take their carriage to Zhao Village, anyway, from this side to Yuxia Pass, he had to pass through Zhao Village, so that not only would he save the fatigue of the journey, but the journey would also be much faster.
thanked my brother-in-law, said goodbye to my sister, touched the heads of my two nephews, and told them with a smile to come back to see them next year.
With his bags on his back, he carried his jujube stick in his hand, waved goodbye to his sister and nephews and left the station.
Zhou Anmin personally sent Zhu Shencone to the convoy to Yuxia Pass, and waited until Zhu Shencone got into the carriage and the convoy left on time before saying goodbye.
Sitting in the carriage, Zhu Shencone turned his head and looked at the other side of the official road, and faintly saw his brother-in-law Zhou Anmin still standing on the side of the road looking at him, as if he saw Zhu Shencone looking at him, Zhou Anmin waved his hand vigorously at Zhu Shencone, and when he went farther and farther, he could no longer see Zhou Anmin's figure.
It was indeed a lot faster to travel by carriage, leaving later than when he came, but arriving at Zhao Village earlier than when he came.
When he arrived near Zhao Village, Zhu Shencone got out of the car and thanked the veteran of the team leader, the other party smiled and said that it doesn't have to be like this, he and Zhou Anmin are also old friends, Zhu Shencone is a relative of Zhou Anmin, everyone is not an outsider, and it is just a trivial matter to carry along the way.
The convoy did not stop in Zhao Village, but only passed by the official road not far from Zhao Village, because they had a time limit for transporting supplies, so they had to continue to hurry.
After thanking the old man, after saying goodbye and waiting for the convoy to go away, Zhu Shencone headed in the direction of Zhaocun. When they returned to Zhao Village, after arriving at the temporary station in Zhao Village, Wang Chuer and the others had been waiting for a long time.
I asked about the situation, everything went smoothly than I expected, and they had already done what they had explained. Since this is the case, Zhu Shencone didn't want to stay in Zhao Village for long, and decided to return early tomorrow morning.
In the early morning of the next day, Zhu Shencone and others packed up their things and began to return, camping in Dayuling on the same day as before they came.
Reaching out his hand, a few snowflakes fell on the palm of his hand, feeling slightly cool, and soon the snowflakes turned into snow water, and the palm of his hand was wet.
Looking up at the sky, the sky was gray, this snow was the fourth in the past half a month, and this snow was obviously much heavier than the previous three.
Seeing this, the heavy snow in the north is coming soon, and they have to hurry up on the way back, if the snow gets heavier and heavier for a few days, the road will be even more difficult to walk, and once they are blocked in the middle of the road, it will be a troublesome matter.
It stands to reason that Ruixue is a good year, which is a good sign.
But Zhu Shencone's face was not the slightest joy, the last year of the Ming Dynasty was the Xiaoice River period, there were more and more natural disasters, and this climate was also very abnormal.
Just like now, the winters are getting longer and the temperature is getting colder, and it snows so early. In addition to the heavy snowfall in a few years, there will be a heavy drought in the summer, and the impact of the abnormal weather will be enormous, and now it is just the beginning.
"Sixth brother, what do you see? What is there to see in this snow? Helping to set up the camp, Wang Jin Wule came to Zhu Shencone's side, and when he saw Zhu Shencone looking up at the sky, he couldn't help but ask.
"It's okay, I'll look at this day, I don't know what the snow will be, if it rains for a few days, I'm afraid the road will not be easy to walk next." Zhu Shencone said casually.
"Isn't that every year? It's just that the snow is a little earlier this year. But don't worry, after the sheep's head mountain, we will go directly to the official road, and it will only be a few days to go back. Wang Jinwu said with a smile.
Zhu Shencone nodded noncommittally, glanced at Wang Jinwu, and asked him how he felt about following the salt this time, and if he had any ideas.
Wang Jinwu grinned and said that it felt good, and he didn't have any ideas, except for a fight between Sheepshead Mountain and Li Hu, it was just ordinary. Speaking of competing with Li Hu, Wang Jinwu's eyes suddenly lit up, and he shouted that he would enter Sheep's Head Mountain tomorrow, and when the time came, he would have to compete with Li Hu.
He has been thinking about the last fight for the past few days, and has thought of a few ways to deal with Li Hu, and he will have to give it a try when the time comes, and he is very confident that he will be able to win Li Hu by then.
laughed and scolded this stinky boy a few words, and asked him not to think about these things all the time, and to think more about the things along the way.
Since his uncle Wang Rong asked Zhu Shencone to take Wang Jinwu to take salt this time, he also planned to let him take charge of himself in the future. Walking salt is not a trivial matter, all kinds of situations may be encountered on the road, it is not as easy as Wang Jinwu imagined, he still has a lot to learn.
Rest early, and when I woke up the next day, the snow had stopped, and although the sky was still gray, it didn't seem to be going to rain again soon, which made Zhu Shen's heart feel a lot easier.
They continued their return journey, and after two hours they entered Sheep's Head Mountain, and had just walked along the mountain path for a short time when they heard the sound of movement in front of them.
Zhu Shencone and the others hurriedly stopped, reminding everyone to make a vigilant response, and after a while, they saw a few people appearing from the mountain road, one of them walked in the front, and his footsteps trotted towards Zhu Shencone and them, and he ran all the way and asked loudly: "Is it the sixth master?" Hahaha! It's really the sixth master! I've been waiting for you for two days, so I've been waiting for you! ”
