Chapter 193: Departure
There is still such a good thing that I sent to my door?
Cui Pu was so excited that he was about to fly.
"Yes, of course! I can't ask for it!" he nodded hurriedly.
After that, he happily introduced Hu San and his party to Lu Jiu, and said triumphantly: "These are all rangers who have traveled south and north for many years! Last time, they fell in love with me because of a coincidence, and now we are friends who are irreversible!"
The most important thing is that these people are attracted by him through his personal charm, and they have little to do with Mu Jiaojiao!
In other words, the reason why these people came to escort them to Yangzhou was for him!
Such a vast group of people, although there is only one batch, is enough to overwhelm Mu Jiaojiao so many in terms of quantity!
Thinking about it, he was so happy that he wanted to cry, and hurriedly sent a smug look to Mu Jiaojiao's side - you see, someone also made a special trip to send me! And they sent us directly to Yangzhou! It's much better than those around you who only give some gifts and say some reluctant words!
Mu Jiaojiao received it, and could only smile helplessly.
After a while, the time to set off came, everyone said goodbye again, and Cui Pu and Mu Jiaojiao walked to the river surrounded by everyone.
Each of those rangers carried a box for each person, easily carried it on their shoulders, and went to the boat with some talking and laughing.
But at this moment, there was a rush and chaos of horses' hooves behind him, and someone was shouting: "Let me go!
Everyone was shocked, and hurriedly looked back, and saw four horses opening the way in front, followed by more than ten cars, and a huge team rushed towards this side, and did not slow down in front of people.
The people around the ferry subconsciously walked around, and Cui Pu also hurriedly pulled Mu Jiaojiao aside. Then he watched as the carriage and horse grazed their shoulders and came to a dangerous stop at the ferry.
Cheng Jiuniang immediately found the emblem on the carriage, and immediately sneered: "The surname Wu is really a big show." It's just to go down and make a county order, which is the same as doing a festival envoy!"
Cui Pu also lowered his face and whispered: "It's really unlucky, why did you choose to set off on the same day as him?"
Moreover, on the first day of travel, they were deliberately pressed by the surnamed Wu, and they definitely did it on purpose!
Seeing this, Hu San asked: "These people are so arrogant and domineering. Rokuro-kun, do you want me to send my brothers to teach them a lesson?"
"No need. There is still more than a month to go along the way, and there is time to get back a city. Cui Pu said coldly.
As he spoke, Wu Lixin had already jumped out of the carriage. When he looked back at Cui Pu, he seemed to have just discovered his existence, and hurriedly gave up his hand and pretended to make a gesture: "Ah, Cui Liulangjun, you also chose to set off today? It can be seen that today is really a good day! This way to Yangzhou, we have to go all the way, and we will take care of each other when the time comes." ”
"It's easy to say, it's easy to say. Cui Pu also gave a perfunctory return salute.
When the enemy meets, he is very red-eyed. Now in front of these many people, it is not easy for them to say a few words calmly.
After saying hello, Wu Lixin immediately turned around and boarded the ship. Five or six delicate women with heavy makeup came down from the carriage behind, and several people called out to Lang Junjiao and chased after them with a smile. Then it was the turn of the servants to unload no less than fifty cages from the carriage behind them and carry them to the ship one by one.
Seeing this, Lu Jiu couldn't help but shake his head and said: "Is he going to be an official or going to play? And he brought so many concubines, doesn't he know that Yangzhou has produced beauties since ancient times? If you want to be accompanied by beauties, it's not too late to buy them when you get to the place!"
His words got Cui Pu a cold eye.
Lu Jiu touched his nose, not knowing what he said wrong.
Mu Jiaojiao covered her lips again and chuckled.
It was easy to wait until the samurai's belongings were finished, and they were about to board the ship, when another carriage arrived in a hurry.
"Hey, Wu Erlangjun has already boarded the ship? Forget it, let someone send him something, I'll say goodbye to Cui Liulangjun and the sixth young lady." Peng Zhang got out of the car and said with a smile.
There was an uproar among the onlookers: Brother, didn't you come to send his cousin Wu Erlangjun on behalf of King Shou?
Obviously, Peng Zhang is not afraid.
The commander put a few heavy cages on the boat for Wu Lixin, and he came over to Cui Pu and Mu Jiaojiao, and after saluting respectfully, he said with a smile: "Cui Liulangjun, Sixth Young Lady, long time no see." I didn't expect this meeting to be a long-term farewell, and I really can't bear you here!"
"We're the same. However, the order of the saint cannot be violated, and we have cured it and hurried to go to the post. Cui Pu looked at him defensively, and his words were extremely perfunctory.
Peng Zhang didn't even play with him perfunctory at all, so he said straightforwardly: "Cui Liulangjun should already know the relationship between me and the Sixth Young Lady by now, right?
"She's not available, the auspicious time is coming, and we're going to board now. Say whatever you want here!" Cui Pu said coldly.
Peng Zhang hit a nail in front of him, and hurriedly turned to Mu Jiaojiao: "Sixth Young Lady, don't you want to say a few private words together?" I thought that there was a lot to say between us. ”
"Yes? Why don't I know? I don't have any secrets between me and my family Langjun, and I don't have anything to say in front of him, Peng Langjun can just say whatever you want, let's listen!" Mu Jiaojiao said indifferently.
Peng Zhang choked, and a little consternation appeared on his face.
Cui Pu saw it in his eyes, and he was in a good mood - no matter how you kid pretends to be familiar with her, she doesn't want to pay attention to you. Look, aren't you being slapped in the face now?
Mu Jiaojiao's attitude made him feel at ease, and he didn't have the heart to compete with this man, so he said: "Forget it, you senior brothers and sisters can say something private! But hurry up, we will board the ship soon." ”
He walked to the side.
Peng Zhang immediately stepped forward and smiled lightly at Mu Jiaojiao: "You still have a way, it is easy to make him believe in you, and take the initiative to give up the place." ”
"It's not that I have a way, it's that I am married to him, and he trusts me. Mu Jiaojiao corrected.
Peng Zhang's face suddenly smiled. "Husband and wife? Why do I think it's so ridiculous? Do you really want to spend your whole life on this man?"
"Isn't that possible? We're already husband and wife. Mu Jiaojiao responded lightly.
"You're going to regret it. Peng Zhang said coldly.
"I won't. Mu Jiaojiao shook her head.
Peng Zhang snorted coldly, and the corners of his lips raised slightly: "If not, why do you want to leave Chang'an in a hurry now? Don't you dare to admit that you made this decision just to avoid me?"
Burst!
Mu Jiaojiao sprayed directly. "Peng Langjun, you can't help but think of yourself too much. Do I have any close relationship with you? Why should I avoid you? The reason why I left Chang'an with my husband was because he was going to Yangzhou to become an official! After a few years of training outside, his official position will inevitably rise steadily, and sooner or later he will soar to prominence. I'm doing it for him and for myself!"
"Isn't our relationship close enough?" Peng Zhang's eyes darkened, his upper body leaned towards her like this, and his dark voice was soft and sinister, which made people feel chills in their hearts, "You say, if I told him everything we had done, what would he think?"
"I don't know what he thinks. But if you want to know, you can just go and talk to him now. Mu Jiaojiao was not threatened by him at all.
The coldness around Peng Zhang's body was retracted. "You just believe in him like that?"
"Yes!" Mu Jiaojiao nodded.
"It's because you supported him single-handedly, and he can't leave you yet, so do you have nothing to fear?"
Hearing this, Mu Jiaojiao shook her head weakly: "You think too much." I said trust him, that is, trust, nothing else. What I believe is his character. ”
Peng Zhang's eyes darkened when he heard this. "Did you trust me like that before?"
"I once believed in you. Mu Jiaojiao nodded. But it's just believing, not trusting.
"However, this belief was destroyed by my own hands. Peng Zhang smiled bitterly, "Moreover, it also led to my final fate, right? So much so that now, you don't even believe in me at all, and you won't even give me a chance to atone for your sins." ”
"It's good that you know. Mu Jiaojiao nodded happily, "With this self-knowledge, you won't appear in front of me again in the future." Let's be separated, and we'll be fine. I'll take my Yangguan Road, and you cross your single-plank bridge, isn't it good?"
"Okay, but what do I do when I find out that I can't forget you? I've dreamed of you almost every day since I recognized you, of what it was like when we were children. At that time, we studied with the master together, recognized herbs together, the master went to the clinic, I carried the medicine box for him, and you secretly stuffed food in my mouth. At that time, we were childhood sweethearts, and the two had no guesses, how good! No matter who we were, as long as we saw it, they praised us as a natural pair, and we were a match made in heaven. Peng Zhang said quietly, that look was very nostalgic.
"Well, there used to be such a paragraph. But it's a pity that after you completed my grandfather's fifty or sixty percent of the medical practice, you climbed to the director of the Provincial Health Department, and quickly got engaged to his daughter, which made my grandfather angry to death. Mu Jiaojiao added coldly.
The expression on Peng Zhang's face cracked.
Mu Jiaojiao smiled coldly again: "In my last life, you were angry with my grandfather, I killed you, one life for another, and we were both clear." Now here, I don't want to have any more crossroads with you, and you'd better remember that. Otherwise, I have a way to make you die a hundred more times! You'd better remember my words!"
Peng Zhang was stunned in place, his face in disbelief.
Recalling the past, Mu Jiaojiao's mood also became extremely bad, so she turned her head and said, "I'll talk to you here." In the future, we will never get along, this is the best way I can think of it. ”
Seeing that she was about to turn around and leave, Peng Zhang hurriedly caught up with two more steps: "Jiaojiao, I know that I was wrong at the beginning, and I am sorry for you! But haven't I already atone for my mistakes? Have you forgotten all the things we have been together for more than ten years and experienced so much together? And you don't remember what you said to me?"
Mu Jiaojiao stopped, turned around and smiled brightly at him, but the words he said were extremely cold and vicious: "I was blind at the beginning, so I fell in love with you, a wolf in sheep's clothing. But now, my eyes are better! I have found a man who is of better character than you, who is more handsome than you, and who is much more noble than you. Since he is better than you in everything, then why should I remember everything between me and you? With this thought, I might as well live a good life with him and make a few more beautiful dolls!"
When the words fell, she clearly saw that Peng Zhang's face was getting darker and darker, and then the corners of her lips hooked, and she turned back proudly.
Cui Pu has been keeping an eye on the situation on their side. Seeing that Peng Zhang's body was stiff and his face was extremely ugly because of what she said, he quickly breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly caught up. "What's wrong with him?"
"Oh, he wanted to use his old relationship with me, but I refused, so I'm in a bad mood now. Mu Jiaojiao said.
"Then let him be depressed!" Cui Pu hurriedly said, holding her hand with one hand, "Now, let's go!"
"Okay, let's go. Mu Jiaojiao nodded, and the two held hands and stepped onto the big boat.
Then I heard the boatman shout - "Anchor!"
There was a dull sound, and the ship gradually left the shore and sailed out of the water.
They finally set sail and are going to run to Yangzhou, the flowery capital of Jiangzhou!
