Chapter Twenty-Six: Return to Beijing
Time flies really quickly, and before I know it, it is time for Sima to return to Beijing leisurely.
Since that night two days ago, after Sima Youran, Chen Mingyu, and Yang Shaoru had a rough conversation, the rest of the time the three stayed quietly in their respective homes and did not go out again. During this period, Sima Youran sent Asu to Chen's mansion to deliver two letters.
One for Chen Enyi and one for Chen Mingyu.
The letter to Chen Enyi briefly explained the arrangement of Sima Youran to Chen Enyi, originally Sima Youran was going to go to Chen's Mansion to explain to Chen Enyi in person two days ago, but who knew that since Chen Mingyu took the initiative to run to Sima Xiang's Mansion, Sima Youran did not go to Chen's Mansion again, but asked Asu to send a letter.
As for the letter to Chen Mingyu, the main reason is that Sima Youran wanted to ask Chen Mingyu to arrange the guards, carriages and dry food for everyone on the way back to Beijing. Although there was still a prince's army lurking outside the city, Sima Youran was still very worried about any accidents on the road, so he specially asked Chen Mingyu to arrange more guards.
......
......
Sima leisurely packed up his things, thinking that the time should be almost up, so he came to the door of Sima Qianye's study and knocked on the door as usual.
"Enter. Sima Qianye's voice came from the study.
Sima leisurely gently pushed the door in, and saw Sima Qianye who was flipping through the books at this time.
"You're leaving, right? Sima Qianye said leisurely to Sima who walked in.
"Yes, father, the child is about to leave for Beijing, and I have come to bid farewell to my father. ”
Sima Qianye nodded slightly, walked up to Sima Youran and gently patted the latter's shoulder.
"Hmm...... Be careful on the road. Sima Qianye said softly.
Listening to his father's instructions, Sima nodded leisurely.
"Okay, let's go, write back when you have time. ”
"Good...... The child quits. ”
Sima leisurely bowed to Sima Qianye and then exited the study.
The study room was silent again, and Sima Qianye walked to the desk and sat down slowly.
In fact, Sima Qianye was very worried about Sima Youran, who returned to Beijing this time, after all, the situation in the capital is too dangerous now, and many things have been out of the control of Emperor Li Linming.
But while worried, he also believed in Sima Youran very much.
Because Sima Qianye believes that what he can do, his son will definitely be able to do it!
......
......
At the west gate of Linjiang City, Yang Shaoru and Chen Mingyu had already converged.
Because Sima Youran specially instructed the two of them not to tell other talents in Linjiang City about the fact that they were going to enter Beijing with Sima Youran this time, there were not many people at the gate of the city at this time, only Chen Mingyu, Yang Shaoru and a few guards arranged by Chen Mingyu.
Chen Mingyu prepared a total of two carriages, one of which was very large and was not a problem for five or six people, while the other carriage was much smaller and seemed to fit only two people.
"Brother Mingyu, why did you prepare two carriages, is this big carriage enough for a few of us to sit in the near future?" Yang Shaoru asked suspiciously.
Chen Mingyu spread his hands and explained: "Actually, you asked me to prepare two carriages, and I don't know what he wants to do...... Sima leisurely instructed him in his letter, you must prepare two carriages, one of which must be relatively large.
"The pony carriage is for Miss Haoyue. At this time, Sima Youran's voice came from behind the two.
The two turned around and saw Sima Youran and a masked woman in a long white dress walking towards them.
"Let me introduce to you, this is Miss Haoyue, and she will go to the capital with us this time. Sima leisurely introduced to the two.
Coincidentally, after Sima leisurely left Sima Xiang's mansion, he first went to the pawn shop stronghold of Chihuwei, and sent a letter box to Li Qinglan, the lord of Anping County, just like last time, there were two letters in the letterbox, but the content of the letters was not the same as last time - the content of the two letters was roughly the same, both of which indicated that he was about to leave for Beijing, and estimated the time to the capital.
After leaving the pawn shop, Sima leisurely rushed to the city gate, on the way to the city gate, Sima leisurely met Hao Yue, who also went to the city gate, so the two walked together, and felt that the city gate happened to hear the conversation between Yang Shaoru and Chen Mingyu.
After Sima leisurely introduced Hao Yue, Chen Mingyu also remembered where he had seen Hao Yue - in his Ling Dance Pavilion, Hao Yue was the person who helped He Rong'er that night.
"In Xia Chen Mingyu, he is the young owner of Ling Wu Pavilion, and the things of the day are thanks to the help of Miss Haoyue, and I am grateful and disrespectful here!"
"It's just a small thing, not a big deal. Hao Yue waved her hand and said softly.
And Yang Shaoru looked like he was out of the situation, and he was also stunned to introduce himself to Haoyue and said hello to Haoyue in a daze.
"That little carriage is specially prepared for you, girl, after all, there is a difference between men and women, the three of us sit in one, and you sit in one girl. Sima said leisurely to Hao Yue.
Hao Yue nodded lightly, and got into the smaller carriage, and Sima Youran and the three of them also boarded the big carriage one after another.
"Let's go. With Chen Mingyu's order, this train fleet officially embarked on the road to the capital.
In the carriage, Yang Shaoru finally opened his mouth and asked Sima Youran: "Brother Youran, who is this Haoyue girl?"
Sima smiled leisurely and said: "After the reception banquet that Mingyu prepared for me that day, Che Tianluo tried to tease He Rong'er by getting drunk, and it was this Haoyue girl who helped He Rong'er at that time, so that He Rong'er could avoid Che Tianluo's teasing. ”
Chen Mingyu also answered: "At that time, it was really thanks to this Haoyue girl, you know how much my father spent to invite He Rong'er, in case Che Tianluo really did what happened to He Rong'er, my father will definitely not be able to spare me." ”
Yang Shaoru understood it as soon as he heard it, but there was still one thing that didn't make sense, why did Hao Yue have to follow them to the capital?
Yang Shaoru asked Sima Youran, and Sima Youran did not hide it, and briefly told Haoyue about his amnesia.
After that, Yang Shaoru didn't have any doubts, but Chen Mingyu suddenly asked Sima Youran with a solemn face: "Brother Youran, do you think this Haoyue girl has any doubts...... How much does she know about our plans to go to Beijing?"
Sima Ran shook his head leisurely and said, "I have thought about what you said, and I have also sent someone to investigate her, she seems to have appeared in Linjiang City out of thin air, and almost no one knows her." But...... I don't know why, I think she can be trusted, at least don't be wary of her...... As for our plan to enter Beijing...... Rest assured, I will not reveal anything about these things to anyone who has nothing to do with them. ”
Chen Mingyu breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this, he had just met Hao Yue, so he couldn't talk about any trust, but he trusted Sima Youran.
"Brother Leisure...... Could it be that you are to this hazy girl...... Interesting?" Chen Mingyu suddenly quipped.
Just now, Sima Youran said that he didn't know why he felt that Hao Yue could be trusted, could it be ...... Sima Youran, who has never had much feeling for beautiful women, was tempted by this amnesiac girl of unknown origin this time?
"What do you say...... How could it be ......" Sima leisurely waved his hand leisurely.
This scene caused Yang Shaoru and Chen Mingyu to laugh wildly. Indeed, whenever Sima Youran encounters a question about women, he will become at a loss.
The three of them began to joke with each other, and it wasn't long before Sima suddenly opened the curtain and looked out, then asked the driver to stop.
After the convoy stopped, Sima leisurely stepped out of the carriage, took out a flute from his sleeve, and began to play.
The coachman guards on the side were very puzzled, not knowing what kind of medicine was sold in the gourd of this Sima Gongzi, and Hao Yue in the small carriage behind heard the melodious flute, and also poked his head out and looked at Sima Youran who was playing.
Suddenly, there was a loud noise in the woods on the side, and I saw a group of soldiers wearing iron armor and holding swords rushing out of the woods and coming to Sima Youran.
The guards hurriedly drew their swords to protect Sima Youran, but Sima Youran waved his hand and signaled the guards not to step forward.
I saw that among the soldiers in front of me, a middle-aged man wearing silver armor walked out. He walked up to Sima Ran and got down on one knee.
All the soldiers behind him also fell to one knee.
"The last general, Xie Changfeng, has seen Lord Sima!" the silver-armored soldier saluted at Sima leisurely.
"I've seen Lord Sima!" all the soldiers saluted at Sima leisurely.
At this time, Yang Shaoru and Chen Mingyu already knew it in their hearts.
These soldiers...... It was the prince's army sent by the prince to protect Sima Youran!
