It wasn't until it was confirmed that the monitor would not come back that Jiang Shu clamped his horse's belly tightly and headed towards Huangzhuang.
at the same time.
The two spies who came downstairs informed the messenger of Jiang Shu's movements, then they secretly disguised themselves and continued to chase north in the direction that Jiang Shu had taken his horse.
What they don't know is.
Almost the moment Jiang Shu left Princess Xian's mansion, Beidi's spies secretly informed Descarnado in the Xiyi Pavilion of Jiang Shu's whereabouts.
When Descartes deduced from his analysis that Jiang Shu was going to Huangzhuang, he quickly informed Master Yuan of the matter.
Regarding the specific information about the Dragon Guards in the Daxing Palace that Descarnato had learned through the power of the Jin Palace, Yuan Guoshi specially praised it and began to make arrangements.
"It's really hard to find anywhere, it takes no effort to get here. I'm still thinking about imitating Ning Wushu's handwriting to lure Hua Yi out of the palace. I'm worried that Hua Yi will send someone to Princess Xian to check first, which will delay Time, now that Ning Wu is safe, he sends someone to invite Hua Yi, God is really helping me."
"It's just that the time is wrong. General Di, I'd like to help you stop this Dragon Guard."
Stopping the Dragon Guard is not an easy task.
Descartes' eyes flashed with murderous intent, and he asked after deliberation: "Instead of stopping him, why not wait until he reaches the outside of the city and kill him directly, so as to avoid future troubles!"
"No, what we are going to do is to eradicate Hua Yi without anyone noticing. If we scare the snake because of the death of a Dragon Guard, even if there is only a one in ten thousand chance, it will arouse Ning Wuyan's suspicion. We will It’s absolutely not something you can do.”
He would fake Hua Yi's death as an accident.
Only in this way.
Only then can Ning Wuhuang make the same mistake again.
"It's just a bit difficult not to let people die and delay Long Wei's efforts."
Descarnato was not a reckless man, but because of Long Wei's superior kung fu and vigilance, it was difficult to attack him.
Seeing Descartes' rather troubled reaction, Master Yuan smiled calmly and reminded him aloud.
"General Di, our purpose is just to delay time. You don't even have to think about creating conflicts or causing heavy casualties to hinder his progress. Daxing people are very particular about what they do. You can start from this point."
Daxing people are particular about what they do?
I see!
Descartes thought for a moment, then waved to Amao and whispered a few words: "You go find a dozen people, do this... do this again... do you understand?"
"I understand, but if this is the case, won't the other party be suspicious?"
"This is the right time, let's go."
When Amao heard that his general was so confident, he no longer hesitated. He combed through what the general said again to make sure that everything was correct, and then he strode towards the door.
North of the city.
It usually only takes a quarter of an hour to ride from Princess Xian's mansion to the north of the city, but it took Jiang Shu more than half an hour.
There is no other reason.
One is because of Mr. Ning's instructions. He acts cautiously and is not in a hurry when delivering letters, so he avoids any disputes on the street.
The second thing is what happened in front of the Xiyi Pavilion, which made the entire capital's guards much tighter. There are still many Loulan people who are afraid that the two countries will become enemies. They will be like Taro Kishizumi who was burned to death at the Dongyi Pavilion. They were detained in Daxing, so they gathered together and fled outside the city.
As a result, in addition to some congestion on the road, the inspection at the city gate was also very congested.
After finally getting out of the city gate, Jiang Shu breathed a sigh of relief.
But they met eight bearers carrying sedans blocking the way.
"Brother, we are going to deliver a betrothal gift to Wang Yuan's family in the eastern suburbs of the capital. When the gift arrives at the door, according to our local customs, it must be set aside for the door god. Can you spare half a quarter of an hour and let us park it first? For a moment, will you leave after we leave?"
Jiang Shu had heard of this particular thing. It was fine if he walked. It would not disturb the happiness of the host family, but he could still enjoy the happiness.
Those who came on horseback like him, or those who stopped behind to catch the carriage, had to wait a while.
However, there was only one official road leading from the north city gate to the imperial village. Thinking of the many concessions he had made in the city before, in order to ensure smooth delivery of letters, Jiang Shu drove his horse to the roadside without saying a word, and got off his horse. to show consent.
"Thank you brother, brother, I am very happy to see you."
The bearer leading the sedan put a handful of melon seeds and peanuts into Jiang Shu's arms with both hands.
Jiang Shu glanced at the bearers who were distributing the fruits to other convoys, and could only sigh and take them, waiting for the half-quarter of an hour to pass.
The idle and boring waiting process is long.
Finally, after half a quarter of an hour passed, Jiang Shu quickly got on his horse with the sound of "lifting the sedan chair" from the bearer.
At this time, when I looked up at Huangzhuang in the direction of the northern suburbs, it was already vaguely engulfed in black.
"I have to hurry up, otherwise it will be completely dark by the time we get to Huangzhuang."
As he was speaking, he felt a flutter behind his back, vaguely heard the sound of thunder, and turned his head to look.
Sure enough, there was lightning shining in the clouds in the southwest, and the cumulus clouds overhead were slowly moving towards the north.
When you go out and encounter a thunderstorm, you have to speed up your pace.
Jiang Shu didn't know whether he suddenly became nervous because of the lightning he saw just now.
"drive!"
He clamped the horse's belly tightly and ran towards the Huangzhuang where the number of pedestrians was gradually thinning.
As soon as I reached a fork in the road leading to Huangzhuang and turned to pass through a small road, I saw a team carrying a coffin slowly walking over at the other end of the two-mile small road.
Jiang Shu suddenly couldn't laugh or cry.
"What kind of bad luck did I have today, that all the happy events and funerals happened to me?"
Happy events cannot be rushed.
Naturally, I have to let go of this funeral.
Jiang Shu took a look at the surrounding terrain and knew that if he took a detour at this time, it would be better to wait for the team of coffin bearers to pass by. He could only suppress the anxiety in his heart and turned to look to the southwest.
Rumble.
The dull thunder was getting closer and closer.
…
Huangzhuang.
Hua Yi was looking over the sketches drawn by Ning Wuhuang and the method of purifying Artemisia annua juice over and over again. He sketched on the draft paper next to him and wrote down his experiences and ways to improve it.
It wasn't until it got dark outside and there was no light in the room that he put down the brush in his hand and lit an oil lamp.
At this time, the steward of Huangzhuang sent a letter to Hua Yi's desk with a smile.
"Master Hua, I have your letter."
Except for letters.
There was also a carriage marked with the word "Shen" also parked in the yard.
Hua Yi glanced at the signature on the letter - Tu Ling.
When he took it apart, his disciple Shen Youchu's smiling face seemed to flash before his eyes.
"Master, I have collected a lot of good things at Fengyun Bookstore. When you are free, help me pick out which ones are better to use as apprenticeship ceremonies. I will use them when my parents and I come to worship the master in two days. , the rest will be regarded as my filial piety to Master, you must not dislike it."
Inside the letter was a catalog.
There are all kinds of objects, and some of the antiques he likes are marked with years.
As for that antique, he just said it inadvertently when he was teaching Tu Ling. Unexpectedly, Tu Ling went out to find it and gave it to him.
