Mo Zhang's main force was evacuating without rest at all. They were still evacuating all night, and they had put all their energy into the evacuation.
Those soldiers had not closed their eyes for several nights.
"Hurry up!"
"cheer up!"
The shouting echoed throughout the valley.
As everyone knows, Li Xiran and He Yuhong's father, He Hansheng, are not far behind the evacuation route of Mozhang's main force.
The two of them were on the outskirts of Yuxi County on the boundary of Shunyuan Prefecture.
Seeing the torches lighting up the route, He Hansheng couldn't help but said: "This seems to be the withdrawal of the main force."
Listening to what He Hansheng said, Li Xiran didn't care about this at all. What she cared about most was to find Zi Yuan as soon as possible and take Zi Yuan back to explain.
After a while, He Hansheng guessed and said: "Could it be that Yu Hong's team is nearby?"
Li Xiran glanced at He Hansheng, then looked away and looked at someone else.
It was pitch dark here, and the two of them still walked by the moonlight. Without the moonlight, it would have been difficult for them to walk.
Seeing Li Xiran's appearance, He Hansheng finally said: "How about we go back to find Yu Hong and the others? It's not an option to continue searching like this."
Li Xiran shook his head: "No, if I don't find Ziyuan, how can I explain to Chunxu when I get back?"
"But how are we going to find it with just the two of us? Wouldn't it be easier to find tens of thousands of people if we follow Yu Hong and the others? Look, we have been searching like this for several years and haven't found any clues. Why don't we go back."
"Girl, you'd better go back. I believe your husband can understand you. It's really not an option to continue searching like this."
Listening to He Hansheng's advice, Li Xiran thought about this several times, but he thought that Zi Yuan was born to the concubine at that time and was of royal blood. Moreover, Zi Yuan was raised by the concubine's father himself. As ordered, she didn't want to cause a catastrophe because she lost Zi Yuan. After all, Xi Ran still remembered that she was a palace maid, both in the past and now.
"But... I really can't explain it to Chunxu when I go back like this. I have no shame in going back."
Xi Ran's words made He Hansheng not know how to persuade her. Looking at Xi Ran's appearance, he felt a little sorry for her.
Although He Hansheng didn't know Li Xiran at all, from the search over the past few years, He Hansheng could understand how important this child was to Li Xiran.
"Girl, don't say that."
"You are not the only mother in the world who has lost her child. I don't know how many mothers have lost their children, but you
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
Think about it, they lost their child, but like you, you went to find it by yourself? "
"Girl, just listen to my advice."
"Let's go back and discuss with your husband how to find the child. Besides, after so many years, your husband must be more anxious than us and follow you everywhere to find the whereabouts of the child? What if they find it? ?”
He Hansheng's words stirred up Xi Ran's inner thoughts.
After a while, looking at the dark sky and the untraveled dirt roads around, thinking about the hardships she had endured in the past few years, and sometimes not having enough to eat, Xi Ran finally spoke:
"Uncle, do you think there are so many of them, will they find Ziyuan?" Xi Ran asked.
Listening to Li Xiran's question, He Hansheng was not sure, but in order to convince Xiran, He Hansheng still said this: "It's possible. There are at least more of them than the two of us. There are so many people who want to find someone." It’s not difficult personally.”
"Girl, you haven't listened to what I have said in the past few years, but now that Yuhong's soldiers are close to us, I have no choice but to persuade you again."
"It's not that I miss my son and don't want to find a child with you, but it's hard to find a child with just the two of us."
Unknowingly, Li Xiran's eyes became moist, and a few tears fell down.
Xi Ran calmed down and then asked, "I'm afraid Chunxu and the others will blame me for not being able to manage Zi Yuan well."
Seeing Li Xiran blaming himself so much, He Hansheng squeezed his brains and continued to persuade: "Girl, it's not all your fault. If that's the case, even if I took Ziyuan out and lost it, I can explain it like this. Bar?"
"But..."
He Hansheng didn't know what to say. He thought for a moment, looked at the moonlight that was flickering at this time, and looked at Xi Ran's self-reproaching look, and said: "If you are afraid of going back, then keep looking. I Go back by yourself, I admit that I lost it and I don’t care about you."
See, after He Hansheng said this, he put some things he was carrying, including food, in front of Xi Ran, and walked away without any purpose. Well... To be precise, he had a purpose, which was to find Yu. Hong and the others, but they didn’t know where they were now, so they walked without a purpose.
Seeing He Hansheng walking away, Xi Ran wanted to go back with him, but thinking about Zi Yuan's identity and then his own identity, Li Xiran hesitated.
After hesitating for a long time and losing sight of He Hansheng, Xi Ran stood up, picked up the things left by He Hansheng, and walked away aimlessly, but Xi Ran was looking for Zi Yuan, not Chun Xu. They rebelled against the army.
The next day.
Early in the morning.
The soldiers who were the first to move the goods from Mozhang's main force had already arrived at the Wendang County pier.
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
The magistrate of Wendang County, Zhang Yuandao, is responsible for this important task.
Of course, this was not what he wanted, but he was following the instructions of the court, and this right was also given by the court.
What is the main responsibility? It is responsible for the transportation of ships.
When the news from the imperial court reached the ears of Zhang Yuandao, the county magistrate, Zhang Yuandao had already used the power granted by the imperial court to collect the ships along Mozhang to the current Wendang County Wharf.
Look at the efficiency of this work, it's pretty fast.
At this time, many ships were docked at the dock in Wendang County. They were so densely packed that they almost occupied the entire Mo River.
Fortunately, the current of the Mo River is not very turbulent, otherwise, the imperial court's plan to evacuate Mo Zhang's main force is not known to succeed.
"Move quickly!"
"quick!"
"Come in order!"
I saw soldiers running towards the ship with a small number of weapons in their hands.
At this moment, Zhang Yuandao, the magistrate of Wendang County, was standing beside the pier, watching.
He didn't want to see this scene. After all, he was a local magistrate of Wendang County. Furthermore, Mo Zhang's main force had withdrawn. Doesn't that mean that the court no longer cared about Mo Zhang?
Thinking about it again, doesn't it mean that he will not be the magistrate of Wendang County for much longer.
The officials standing here are not only Zhang Zhixian, but also several officials from the yamen.
"County magistrate." The official on the side shouted quietly.
He is Linchang, the county magistrate of Wendang County Yamen. He is neither fat nor thin, with only a few white hairs on his hair. His body shape and age are similar to those of Magistrate Zhang standing next to him.
Hearing the shouts of Lin County Magistrate, the county magistrate Zhang Yuandao moved his head and looked at the county magistrate Lin Changlai: "What's the matter?"
County Magistrate Lin lowered his voice: "President, the main force has withdrawn. Doesn't this mean that the imperial court has given up on Mo Zhang? As a result, Wendang County will not be protected at any time."
Zhang Zhixian nodded slightly: "What you said makes some sense."
"Then... if Wendang County is not preserved, what will happen to us county officials? Also, there is not a single ship left for us." County Prime Minister Lin Chang continued to lower his voice.
Hearing this, the county magistrate Zhang Yuandao smiled slightly, put his mouth close to Lin County Cheng's ear, and whispered: "Don't worry, I have already made arrangements."
Upon hearing this, the worries in Lin Xian Cheng's heart disappeared a little, and a smile appeared on his face.
"The county magistrate is wise."
Zhang Zhixian smiled slightly and continued to look at the soldiers who hurried to the ship to evacuate.
