Chu Yi really felt that his son was sensible.
Since marrying Yun Chu, Brother Yu has become more and more motivated and studious, Chang Sheng's health is getting better and better, and he himself is getting more and more enjoyable every day.
He simply couldn't imagine how Pingxi Prince's Mansion would be like a backwater without Yun Chu.
While the family was talking, suddenly, a figure quickly approached.
Qiu Tong, who was standing behind Yun Chu, stepped forward and reached out to hold the figure's back. The man was held down and a loud sound came from his mouth.
"Let go...let me go!"
From the sound of the voice, it was a woman.
Yun Chu protected the child and looked up.
The woman was dressed in dirty clothes, her hair was unkempt, and she looked very embarrassed.
After being held down, the woman struggled violently and pulled her hair with both hands. She was emotional and looked a little crazy.
"I have met Prince Pingxi and his concubine. This girl is the crazy girl in our Zhuangzi!" A large group of women came to look for her and apologized to Chu Yi and Yun Chu. "The young ones were negligent and let her run out and disturbed the nobles. Here. I'm sorry, we happened to catch a lot of fish in the village, and I will send it to the prince and princess for a taste later."
The ladies took the crazy girl away.
Chu Yi, the owner of Zhuangzi, came late and explained with sweat on his face: "The Zhuangzi behind the mountain over there is the property of the Duke of the State, and there lives a crazy girl. She has never escaped in all these years. Therefore, the old slave was negligent and almost hurt his master, so I ask the prince to punish him!"
"The Duke's Mansion?" Yunchu thought thoughtfully.
She had read the information from the Duke's Mansion. All the concubines were in trouble, but the concubines all married well. Who could this crazy girl be?
So many women came to look for her just now, all of them looked nervous and obviously cared about Crazy Gu, but Crazy Gu was also dirty, so she should have no one to take care of her on weekdays.
This is very contradictory.
She asked the village owner to elaborate further.
"About twenty or thirty years ago, Mad Gu was sent to Zhuangzi to recuperate." The owner of the village didn't know much, "I don't know her specific identity, but I once saw the Duke. Madam personally brought the imperial doctor to Zhuangzi to treat the crazy aunt."
Chu Yi twirled his fingers: "Assign someone to go to the village to inquire about it."
The village owner nodded and went to do the work.
"Chu'er, what do you think?" Chu Yi turned around and asked.
Yun Chu raised his eyes: "Perhaps it's someone the Duke and Madam cares about, who might be a breakthrough."
The Duke's wife is protected by the current emperor and acts without fear. She cannot let herself be in a passive position.
Sometimes, it's time to take the initiative.
She said slowly: "Take that crazy girl away at night and see the reaction of the Duke's Mansion."
Chu Yi nodded and called the procedure.
It was night, and suddenly there was a big fire outside. It was the old woman from the village who came to their village looking for someone.
Yunchu became more and more certain that the crazy girl's identity was extraordinary.
Otherwise, how could those low-level servants dare to request to enter Zhuangzi where King Pingxi lived late at night to search for someone?
Yun Chu's attitude was very gentle. He smiled and said to the leading woman: "It's dark at night, so she can't go far. I'll arrange for someone to go with you to find her."
"Thank you, Princess, thank you very much!"
The ladies are very grateful.
After the mothers-in-law left, Yun Chu and Chu Yi entered Zhuangzi's underground area and saw the crazy girl tied to a chair behind her back.
The crazy girl had a piece of cloth stuffed in her mouth and made a whining sound.
"Don't be afraid, I won't hurt you." Yunchu said softly, "I'll help you take out the cloth, don't scream, okay?"
The crazy girl didn't seem to understand, and was still struggling in fear.
Yunchu asked someone to light Jingxin incense and sat there with Feng Gu. It wasn't until Feng Gu gradually calmed down that she reached out and took off the cloth.
"let me go……"
This is what the crazy girl said as soon as she opened her mouth.
Yun Chu asked softly: "Where do you want to go after escaping from Zhuangzi? Should I have someone take you there?"
Confusion instantly appeared in the crazy girl's eyes: "Where...where are we going to find Erlang? Yes, where is Erlang? You take me to find Erlang!"
"Erlang?" Yunchu still smiled, "What's Erlang's name?"
"That's Erlang, my Erlang!" Crazy Girl screamed, "I want to find Erlang, let me go..."
She struggled violently.
Yunchu asked tentatively: "Li Jingshu?"
Mad Girl suddenly paused and looked at Yunchu with her big eyes.
Yun Chu narrowed his eyes.
Li Jingshu is the maiden name of the Duke's wife. If the crazy girl reacts to this name, it means that her relationship with the Duke's wife is extraordinary.
She was about to test it a little more when she saw the crazy girl shaking her head in pain, making a painful sound in her throat, screaming, and fainted.
"She is mentally stimulated and needs medical treatment." Chu Yi said, "I will arrange for an imperial doctor."
"No." Yun Chu immediately shook his head, "The imperial doctor is loyal to the emperor. The emperor protects the Duke's wife and cannot let anyone know that Feng Gu is here. I will write a letter to Wu Yun and ask him to treat Feng Gu. "
Wu Yun is one of his own and will never reveal this matter to others.
Although there is a crazy girl in Zhuangzi, it does not affect the family's original plan at all.
On the morning of the third day, a family of four took a carriage south. First they went to Lizhuang, a city with beautiful scenery and delicious food. They spent three days here.
Then continue to go south, all the way from the capital, staying in all the cities on the way for a few days, seeing all the scenery, mountains, rivers and waterfalls, eating all kinds of delicious food, sweet and bitter, and unknowingly arrived at Quancheng on the southernmost coast.
At this time, it was already autumn, but it was still summer in Quancheng.
Yun Chu nestled in the man's arms, looked at the children playing in the distance, and said with a smile: "You know, I wanted to take my two children to travel to Dajin a long time ago, and you were not included in the plan. .”
Chu Yi looked at her: "Then when did you have me?"
"Since I agreed to marry you, you have been included in all my future plans." Yun Chu opened his lips and said, "So, I have something to do for you."
Her father came to the south last year and hoarded a large amount of food. Although the food could be stored for a few years, it became less tasty as it was stored and needed to be disposed of.
Also, the big ship that goes out to sea in the spring will soon dock at the dock in Quancheng. She plans to sell all the sea goods in Quancheng, and then buy the goods in Quancheng and return to the capital to resell them. This way, she can make more money.
These matters are all handled by Chu Yi.
He had those old grains transported to Luochuan, which was his fiefdom. These grains could feed the poor people in Luochuan.
But of course it is not for free, but the poor people are allowed to work hard to build and strengthen city walls, trenches, etc., and food is distributed to subsidize the people.
After selling the goods on the big ship in Quanzhou, they made more than 40,000 taels of silver. In this trip, Yun Chu made back nearly half of his investment.
The young man Shuangxi came to report: "This time I went to sea, I encountered a little trouble."
Shuangxi was a young man promoted by Yunchu. He was responsible for going to sea. He was a very smart young man.
Yun Chu motioned for him to continue.
"We met an island nation halfway. The other party was very arrogant and wanted to take away half of our goods." Shuangxi clenched his fists. "Fortunately, we brought gunpowder on board and scared the other party away."
Yunchu opened his lips: "Is it the Dongling Kingdom?"
