Chapter 42 The Deputy Envoy of the Imperial Mission
In the Yangzhou Mansion in the middle of the night, the Yizhifu couple were still sitting in the living room waiting for their news.
When they saw that Mo Yan had come back and that Miss Du had regained her senses, everyone was very happy, and the Yi Governor hurriedly ordered someone to bring the wine and food that had already been prepared.
"Master Yi, the things in Miss Du's body have been removed, but her body is still very weak, and she needs to be raised for a few days. Mo Yan said.
"Where's the old toad?" asked Governor I.
"Dead, along with that green cantharid worm. ”
Seeing that Mo Remnant was reluctant to elaborate, it was not good to ask again, no matter what, thanks to Mo Remnant today, saving the driver is a great merit, not only will there be a reward, but also an official will be added to the knighthood.
"This matter is over, Mr. Mo doesn't know what to do in the future?"
Mo Yan thought for a while and said, "First go to Yichang Mansion with He Shen to find out that villain Gui Qi and avenge the Miao Hall Master, and then wait for the government to close the case and go home." ”
Du Yuanwai was in a very happy mood, and frequently toasted Mo Remnant, until he was dizzy and did not go back to the room to rest.
The next time, the prefect of Yi accompanied Mo Remnant to Shen Mansion, Qianlong asked Ming that the old toad and the green cantharid Gu worm had been eliminated, Long Yan was happy, and ordered He Shen to take Mo Remnant to Yichang Mansion immediately.
Although Du Yuanwai's daughter was fine, he was still a little uneasy and wanted to go with him, so Mo asked He Shen and asked him to get on the boat together.
He Shen and Mo Yan set off from Yangzhou on an official boat and went up the river, stopping at one stop along the way, and officials from all over the country feasted and gave gifts. Mo Yan was reluctant to get off the boat, and He Shen also let him go, but he just ordered people to treat him with good wine and food.
At night, Mo Yan couldn't sleep and sat on the bow of the boat, looking at Jiang Xinyuebai and evoking a burst of homesickness. It has been several years since I left Dali City on that rainy night, and I am sixteen years old, and I am a head taller than before, and I don't know if my father and mother can recognize it. Alas, how they are suffering at home, thinking of these hearts are hot, and they can't wait to fly back to western Yunnan all of a sudden.
Before setting off from Yangzhou, He Shen handed over a holy decree to Mo Xuan, which was given to Luofu Mountain, Boluo County, Guangdong, to the effect that Mo Xuan was ordered to go to Chongxuguan to refine a furnace of elixir with Ge Hong's Feiyunding.
In fact, Mo Remnant didn't want any elixir, but wanted to refine a vessel that could collect the qi of the old yang and the old yin, which was still found in the True Martial Arts Temple Library Pavilion, by Wei Boyang's "Zhou Yi Shen Tong Deed" remnant book of the Eastern Han Dynasty, but the holy decree said that it could only be refined once, so it was necessary to make adequate preparations, otherwise there would be no chance to refine it.
The weather has been sunny all these days, and whenever the sun rises in the morning, Mo Yan swallows a pill of Yi Rong Dan. Seven days in a row, to the eighth day, he wanted to try the effect, so he hid in his cabin alone and faced the mirror, first launched his intention to get older, Xu Yu really felt that the skin and flesh on his face gradually relaxed, and he in the mirror was gradually aging, and finally even his sideburns were white, if it weren't for the person in the mirror with a pair of bright eyes, it would be like Daddy Mo Wenli.
Mo Yan applied his mind back to its original state, and his skin immediately tightened and returned to his original appearance. It's amazing, there are really no wonders in the world, should you get older and scare your mother when you return to Mojiayi, and finally think about not scaring her, my mother can't bear it.
Miss Du's body gradually recovered, and Du Yuanwai's heart finally fell to the ground.
The official ship stopped and stopped, and was sent all the way, and only docked in Jingzhou after more than ten days. Du Yuan's father and daughter got off the boat, thanked them and asked Mo to come to Jingzhou again to fulfill the friendship of the landlord.
He Shen ordered someone to send an 800-mile urgent document to Xiangyang Mansion, but he didn't know what to do.
In the past few days, He Shen has probably received a lot of gifts and has been happy all day, and after noon, he called someone to call Mo Yan to his cabin.
"Mo Yan, I'm about to arrive in Yichang tomorrow, and you have seen the old man socializing a lot along the way, so I don't have time to talk to you, so I want to ask you a few words today." ”
"Please tell us. "Mo Mo thought to himself that this He Shen is a high-ranking and powerful man, and his appearance is also a beautiful man, and he is living a good life, I don't know why he still has to give the emperor a trick, people say that the rivers and lakes are sinister, and I am afraid that this court is ten times more sinister.
"Is the old toad really dead?"
"Yes. Mo Yan knew that He Shen was suspicious.
"How did you die?"
"It was eaten by the green cantharid Gu worm and died, the more powerful the Gu worm counterattack, the more dangerous it is, like the Golden Silkworm Gu, everyone in Miao Jiang knows this. ”
"Well, well, how long has it been since Mo Yan went home, I heard that you are from Dali?"
"Yes. ”
He Shen pushed a paper bag on the table to Mo Yan: "This is for you, be filial to your father and mother when you go home, don't come out and run around if you have nothing to do, it's very dangerous on the rivers and lakes." ”
Mo Yan took the paper bag and looked inside, wow, it was full of silver tickets, and he couldn't help but be surprised: "My lord, this is"
He Shen smiled: "Take it, you deserve it." ”
He is trying to seal my mouth, Mo Yan knows in his heart that he has never thought of going to the emperor to denounce him, and the infighting between you monarchs and ministers does not matter to me. The silver ticket in the hand is the money sent by those corrupt officials anyway, don't do it in vain, just keep it home for your father and mother to buy a new house in Dali City, and your mother will no longer have to get up early and be greedy to sell vegetables on the mountain road.
"Thank you, your Excellency. Mo put the paper bag in his arms in a grand manner, and after taking Heshen's money, he was even more embarrassed to speak ill of others.
"Mo Yan, you and Ben Qincha are the deputy envoys of Qincha to handle the case together, this Gui Qi is corrupt and is required to behead him, so as to fulfill your wish, and after the matter is completed, the case will be withdrawn and you will be innocent. How about it, do you want to go to Yichang Mansion as a deputy envoy to shake your majesty?" He Shen said with a smile.
"Absolutely. Mo said excitedly.
Back in the cabin, Mo Yan opened the paper bag and clicked it, he couldn't believe his eyes, there were 20,000 taels of silver tickets!
Two days later, the official ship arrived in Yichang Mansion, and the prefect Guiqi led the local officials to meet and arrange to live in the post house, and in the evening held a banquet in the palace to receive the wind for the Lord Qincha.
Before the banquet began, Cha Shidong, the prefect of Xiangyang Prefecture, and Liu Xingwu, the garrison, also came to the banquet hall, which surprised the Yichang officials present.
"Sit down, Benchin sent them here. He Shen said lightly.
Gui Qi, who was sitting next to He Shen, whispered: "And my lord, the lower officials have a generous gift to honor my lord." ”
"Don't be busy, I'll ask you for it after the banquet is over. ”
"Lord Xie," Gui Qi said with joy in his heart, "and my lord, can the banquet begin?"
"Wait, the deputy envoy is changing his clothes, and it won't be too late to wait for him to arrive. He Shen replied.
Gui Qi looked at the empty seat beside He Shen and wondered, who could it be.
