An envoy from Kyoto!
Wu Jin had seen that sheepskin cover once before in Mo Mansion. It contained a letter from His Majesty in person to Mo Qianlan. At this time, this identical sheepskin cover probably contained an imperial edict!
Before the sound of horse hooves went away, he turned to look at Xi Guan, took off his silver bag from his waist, grabbed a handful of money, and stuffed them all into Xi Guan's hand without looking at it. A few more copper coins slipped out from between his fingers. He fell into the dry grassland with a yellow light, but he didn't pay attention: "Lease the horse."
The official Xi looked at the large amount of broken silver mixed with scattered copper coins. It was enough to buy a horse, let alone leasing a horse, and he quickly said: "I don't want this much."
Wu Jin was anxious, but his face remained calm, refusing to let anyone see the clues: "We will calculate it when the horse is returned, and write down the document quickly."
This official Xi recognized Wu Jin and knew that he had saved his own child. Although he did not see how impatient he looked, he heard him say the word "quick" and quickly led the horse that had just been drinking water and handed the bridle and riding whip into Wu Jin's hands. : "I recognize you, and I will write a document for you."
"Thank you." Wu Jin got on his horse, took hold of the bridle, and immediately rushed to the city.
The Golden Crow was about to fall to the west. On the main road near the city gate, there were only a few people, and people could still ride horses. However, after a while, the crowds became denser, and people bringing the good news were walking through the streets, and behind them were a large group of people watching the excitement and grabbing money for the wedding. People, the flow of people hugged him and the horse, and even the horse that was thousands of miles away couldn't move its legs.
Wu Jin was so anxious that he was sweating all over, as if he had already seen this official from the capital making a big fuss in the fort.
Mo Lingfeng borrowed an army of women to cross the sea and control Wang Zhizhou. If she could not continue to hide, would she have enough power to face the emperor's wrath?
If the garrisons from various states and the Imperial Guard from Kyoto come to encircle and suppress the enemy, and then take over the fortress, then if they don't follow the wind and the road is clear, their efforts to invade the fortress will be in vain.
Whatever he could think of, Mo Lefeng could also think of, and Mo Lefeng's actions could be predicted by him - in this short period of time, he already had a complete idea in his mind to help Mo Lefeng get through this difficulty. .
Just be quick, the sooner the better, get the other person to the castle before dark!
The road was crowded and it was difficult to move his hooves, so he simply dismounted and left the horse in a foot shop beside the road. He paid all the remaining silver he had on him, then tucked up his clothes and ran through the cracks in the crowd towards Zhizhou Mansion.
He became like a loach, burrowing into any cracks he saw, panting and running away, until his eyesight turned black from exhaustion.
After finally walking out of the crowd, his turban was tilted and he kept walking. He raised his hand to take off the turban, held it in his hand, and started running again.
Just after crossing a street, a team of people grabbing wedding money blocked his way again. He was running around here and there, almost in despair, when he suddenly saw several sedan chairs.
In the official sedan chair at the head, a man was opening the curtain and looking out. He was clearly Wang Zhizhou.
He just wants to find Wang Zhizhou!
"Wang Zhizhou!"
He shouted three times in a row, but the crowd was so noisy that his voice was drowned out as soon as he left his mouth. Seeing the official sedan heading towards Yuhua Street, he quickly squeezed out to follow.
There were more people on Yuhua Street, with Zhuangyuan cakes and wedding coins distributed everywhere, and beggars swarming in. This group of people blocked Wu Jin's line of sight. When his line of sight became clear again, Wang Zhizhou's figure had disappeared.
Where are people?
He had been to Yuhua Street only a handful of times, and now several of them had changed their appearance, leaving no trace of their past. He looked around, feeling a little confused for a moment.
I was at a loss, but I still kept walking. I rushed into a swallow shop and asked the waiter, "Is Wang Zhizhou here? There is something important." The waiter shook his head in fear and waved his hands repeatedly.
He continued to ask from one house to another, and after asking four houses in a row, he suddenly heard Wang Zhizhou's laughter, which was very deep and proud, followed by countless flattering voices.
He raised his legs and stepped forward quickly. The waiter followed him with a smile and asked him a few questions in a buzzing voice. He didn't hear a word clearly and only rushed up to the second floor.
The second floor was full of pavilions, one after another, all very similar. He walked past each one, and then stopped in front of the door of the pavilion with a carved orchid in the middle.
There were four attendants standing at the door, staring at him with unkind expressions. One of them recognized him and immediately stepped forward, raised his hand and gave him a shove. At the same time, he turned to call the waiter: "Why are you letting everyone in? Don't disturb him." Know Zhizhou!"
That's too late.
Wu Jin pushed his entourage aside and opened the door with a slap, revealing the situation in the pavilion immediately.
The table had already been laid out, waiting for Wang Zhizhou to arrive. Wang Zhizhou was sitting at the front seat, looking at the uninvited guest in surprise. A circle of people sat around him, one person was holding a pot to pour wine for Wang Zhizhou, and the other stood up to hold a cup. Xiu, like a servant, provides food for Wang Zhizhou.
Wu Jin's sudden intrusion broke the laughter in the pavilion. When Wang Zhizhou frowned, he was as fast as the wind and had already reached Wang Zhizhou's side.
He bent over, and the clothes on his body also bent into sharp and angular lines. Wang Zhizhou shrank back suddenly, his heart beating wildly in his chest, and a cold sweat broke out from his back. If it weren't for the solid behind, The strong backrest of the chair prevented him from getting up for a moment, otherwise he would have fled on the spot.
Those who flattered him did not react for a moment, and even the entourage who followed him was a step slower.
Wu Jin put a hand on Wang Zhizhou's shoulder and whispered in his ear: "The secret envoy from Kyoto has arrived at the fort."
"What?" Wang Zhizhou's face was extremely shocked for a moment, his pupils trembled sharply, he held the chair with both hands and stood up suddenly: "Impossible!"
He didn't receive any news. He had already written a memorial about the defeat and took care of it in many ways. The emperor had already reprimanded him. Why would there be an emissary coming?
After countless battles, he had already solved the problem of empty pay in the fortress and was not afraid of investigation. However, the emissary came suddenly and no news was leaked along the way. The replaced food, grass, leather armor, etc. might be Discover.
And the Mo family!
If they had known in advance that the emissary would arrive, they could have joined forces and put on a show to hide the emissary from him - but the emissary's arrival was so sudden that Mo Liangfeng was probably not prepared.
"Impossible, how do you know?" He gritted his teeth and looked at Wu Jin, lowered his voice, and held his arm tightly with one hand.
He had to hold on to Wu Jin because after Wu Jin said those words, his legs were trembling and he was breathing heavily with a pale face.
Wu Jin's face was also in an unprecedented state of embarrassment. He was not wearing a crown, only a wooden hairpin was inserted into his head. The hairpin was already crushed in his hand. The corner of his clothes was tucked into a mess in the silk ribbon, and sweat dripped from his temples. It fell and wet the skirt of my clothes.
For such a man who was always well-dressed when fighting, suddenly became confused and looked like crazy. I am afraid that there is really a secret order coming from Kyoto.
Wu Jin pushed his hand away and whispered: "I have seen with my own eyes that the envoys sent by His Majesty to Kuanzhou were not caught off guard. If you rush to the fortress now, you will still have time to join forces with Miss Mo. If If you go too late, it’s too late!”
After that, he was too tired to stand any longer, so he dragged a stool over and sat down, breathing slowly.
