After Duanmu Ci separated from Fan Li, he returned to Guanyi.
At this moment, many people had gathered outside Guanyi. Of course, their target was not him, but the Tian family caravans living in the official post.
Duanmu Ci entered the official post, first met the two people in secret, and then returned to his room. When Gao saw Duanmu Ci coming back, he hurriedly greeted him:
"Owner!"
Duanmu Ci originally wanted to tell Gao Ming the details so that he could be prepared. But he thought again and decided not to tell him for the time being, indicating that he could take a break for the time being.
However, Gao did not retreat but advanced at this time. He stepped forward and spread the soft fabrics given by Duanmu, and said:
"Master, it seems that it's not peaceful outside Guanyi today. In my humble opinion, it's better not to go out casually tomorrow, right?"
"Nothing, what they hate now is the Qi and Lu people, and I am a Wei person, they won't do anything to me."
Gao sighed:
"Having said that, Zheng Yi is really in chaos now, so it's better to be careful."
Duanmu Ci couldn't help but nodded when he heard the words. After hesitating for a while, he still said:
"You should also prepare, we may have to leave Zhengyi tomorrow!"
When Gao Li heard this, his eyes lit up and he grinned:
"Great! But the villain is alone, so there is no need to make any preparations. Please don't blame me for my master's luggage. Gao has already prepared it for me and can leave at any time!"
When Duanmu Ci heard this, he couldn't help but laugh. He raised his hand and nodded towards Gao Shi:
"Haha, you, you, are really discerning."
…
Early the next morning, Fan Li was about to take Guang'er out again, but unexpectedly, he was suddenly stopped as soon as he left the gate of Jizhai.
"Your Majesty, your little master is not allowed to leave this house today."
Fan Li couldn't help but asked in surprise:
"I was able to go out yesterday, why can't I go out today?"
Just listen to the guard reply:
"Please don't blame me, Master. There was a commotion in the city last night. Your Excellency is also afraid that the temple will be damaged, so you specially ordered us to come here to take care of it and strengthen our vigilance. I also hope that Master, Master, will not make things difficult for us."
Fan Li had no choice but to send Guang'er back temporarily. Guang'er's big eyes widened. Although he didn't understand why, he didn't say much.
So at noon, Duanmu Ci followed the plan and first asked Ji's caravan to bring some salt back to Zhengyi from outside the city, and sold it at a fair price.
When the Chinese people heard the news, they immediately flocked here.
However, since Duanmu Ci did not release a lot of salt this time, most people did not actually grab it.
Duanmu Ci was putting out salt at this time, and at the same time he was spreading rumors, saying that Tian's caravan actually had a lot of private salt stored there, but they were just selling it for a price.
When those Chinese people who had not rushed to buy salt heard the news, they couldn't help but become furious!
So, they attacked Guanyi again. Tian's caravan saw that these people were approaching menacingly this time, so they had no choice but to escape through the back door of Guanyi.
When Si Xie heard the news, he was also afraid that Qi would be offended for this, so he hurriedly mobilized troops to suppress it.
Unexpectedly, just as the officials were struggling to deal with it, Duanmu Ci once again spread rumors among the crowd, saying that Yang Hu had led an army to Zheng Yi. As a result, the people were even more panicked.
Originally, rumors about the war like this were not so easy to spread. However, due to the panic among people in Zheng Yi, the people gathered in crowds to rebel, and the officers and soldiers tried their best to suppress it.
As a result, everyone in Zheng Yi was even more in danger, and they had to believe it.
As for Duanmu Ci, he quietly sneaked back to the official post. By the time of You, Duanmu Ci saw that the timing was almost the same. This is what he said to Gao Yan:
"Let's go, it's time to go to Weiguo!"
When Gao Zai heard that he was going to leave right now, he couldn't help but be overjoyed.
He immediately packed his bags and prepared to escape with Duanmu Ci.
…
However, due to the civil unrest that occurred in Zheng Yi during the day, Si Ming specially implemented a curfew that night, and the people of the country were not allowed to move around at will.
Duanmu Ci was obviously more prepared. He came to the next door to the post house again and gave special instructions to his fellow countrymen.
After receiving Duanmuci's instructions, the man hurriedly went out before it got dark.
At the end of Xu Shi, we could hear chaos again outside. It turned out that the person Duanmu Ci had entrusted to him had actually transported two more carts of salt and stopped at the gate of the official post.
How did he get this batch of salt?
It turned out that the fellow Weiguo fellow he bought was a merchant who traveled to and from Zhengyi all year round. At this moment, he bribed the guard at the gate and privately pulled in two carts of salt from outside the city.
Moreover, it was said that because the city had been too chaotic recently, entering the city at night could avoid being robbed by the Chinese.
Of course, the guard also knew the current situation in Zheng Yi. After collecting the money, he made a "little accommodation" and allowed the two cars to enter the city together.
But I don’t know why the news “leaked out”, and the Chinese people didn’t even care about the curfew and rushed out to grab it.
This scene happened to happen at the official post, so Duanmu Ci and Gao took the opportunity to sneak out from the back door, went directly to the exit of the secret passage of the Jifu, and escaped into a private house that he had bought early, quietly Waiting for Fan Li quietly.
…
As for Fan Li, since it was the fact that the young master was always in the mansion during the day, the guards outside were even more closely guarding the gate of the Sacrifice Mansion.
When Fan Li saw that the time had come, he took Guang'er and the other clan members of the Ji Mansion and quietly sneaked out from the secret passage.
Just because at this time Zheng Yi had been turned upside down by Duanmu, and it could be said that it was already quite chaotic. Therefore, the defense outside the temple is naturally relatively weak.
When they met up with Duanmu Ci, they all disguised themselves as merchants from the Wei Kingdom and came to the city gate.
The generals guarding the city gate originally thought that only three or five people were given by Duanmu. Seeing this huge team, they couldn't help but have doubts:
"Wait! Curfew tonight! No one is allowed in or out of this door!"
When Duanmuci saw this, he couldn't help but sigh in a pretentious manner:
"General, please excuse me. These are the caravans of our country. Zheng Yi is really in chaos now, and the Lu country will come to kill you at any time. We can't help but feel a little scared..."
The general guarding the city also felt helpless:
"It's a curfew, and no one is allowed to come in or out. You have to go out with so many people. If the adults find out, I'm afraid they will blame you..."
"General, we are all guards and have no intention of getting involved. General, just don't worry."
As Duanmu Ci spoke, he took out a few more strings of coins from his sleeves.
The general guarding the city's eyes lit up, and he glanced left and right. Seeing that no one noticed him, he sneaked in, pretended to sigh, and then waved his hand, ordering someone to open the city gate a crack. , and everyone filed out.
As soon as Fan Li and the others went out of the city, they saw several caravans coming to meet them not long after walking.
Everyone got on the carriage respectively. Fan Li held Guang'er in his arms, and Duanmu Ci also got on a carriage. Just as Gao was about to get on the carriage, he saw someone holding a torch coming from behind. He didn't know if they were pursuers.
Gao made a quick decision and got into another carriage. Without telling the others, he directly picked up the reins and went forward to meet it.
When Duanmu Ci saw this, he had no time to react and rushed back just as he saw him.
After all, they were not out of danger at this moment, so everyone had to drive their carriages and hurried away.
Guang'er was sleeping, but when the carriage moved, he woke up immediately. He looked at Fan Li with his eyes, then at Duanmu Ci, and asked:
"Alijun, where are we going?"
Fan Li said with a smile:
"We are going to Qufu! We will meet Guang'er's parents soon!"
