Wei Xiaobao took two sets of clothes that he had worn, handed them to Fang Yi and the little princess, and said: "You two women disguise themselves as men, pretend to be eunuchs, and sneak out of the palace with us." Fang Yi and the little princess took the clothes, and Wei Xiaobao He Xiangyan quickly packed two bags with banknotes, gold and silver jewelry, a large bag of Mongolian sweat medicine and a bottle of corpse powder.
After a while, the little princess changed her clothes first. Wei Xiaobao praised: "What a handsome little eunuch, let me braid your hair." After a while, Fang Yi also changed her clothes. Fang Yi was taller than Wei Xiaobao, and Wei Xiaobao's clothes were too tight on Fang Yi's body and didn't fit her well. Fang Yi couldn't help laughing as soon as she looked in the mirror.
The little princess smiled and said: "Let brother Bao help me braid my hair, and I will braid my senior sister's hair." Wei Xiaobao tied the little princess's long hair into a big braid. The little princess looked in the mirror and exclaimed: "Ouch, it looks so ugly. No, I have to do it again." Fang Yi said: "Little princess, if your braids are ugly, just let them be ugly! Brother Xiang is already very anxious, so you can Don't waste any more time." The little princess pouted and gave up on braiding her hair again.
Wei Xiaobao smiled again and said: "You two are so beautiful, why don't you wipe some sand and dust on your face!" The little princess was a little reluctant, but seeing Fang Yi reaching out to wipe the dust off her face, she did the same.
Fang Yi took a step and felt a pain in her chest. Wei Xiaobao put his arms around Fang Yi's waist, half-supported, half-hugged, and walked forward. The four people left the palace through Shenwu Gate, the back gate of the Forbidden City. The guards guarding the gate saw that Eunuch Gui and Eunuch Xiang were leading two young eunuchs out of the palace. Who dared to ask more questions besides fawning over them?
Xiang Yan came out of the palace, and after walking more than ten feet, he turned back and glanced at the palace gate. He had mixed feelings, as if he was living in a different world. I probably won’t come back in the future. Let’s practice martial arts with Mao Shiba in Taizhou! Hmm, I wonder what my martial arts qualifications are?
Wei Xiaobao hired four small sedans on the street and ordered them to be carried to West Chang'an Street. After getting off the sedan, he hired another small sedan and got off the sedan outside Tianshuijing Hutong in Dongcheng. Wei Xiaobao led the three of them into the alley and came to a big house. Someone in front of the house led the four of them inside. Another old man came out to greet him. The old man was dressed like a doctor.
The old man invited the four of them to sit down in the hall, served tea, and then pulled Wei Xiaobao aside to whisper. After a while, Wei Xiaobao came over and said, "Xiaoyan, Brother Mao went to Mount Wutai last night. How about we go to Mount Wutai to find him?" Xiang Yan said helplessly, "Okay." Wei Xiaobao then said to Princess Fang Yihe, "You guys Friends from Prince Mu’s Mansion rushed to Mount Wutai last night with people from the Tiandihui. Where can you go? I’ll ask one or two reliable friends to escort you there.”
Fang Yi said: "I'm afraid something has changed in Mount Wutai. We have to rush over and warn the young master." Wei Xiaobao said: "You are injured and your daughter's family can't make the journey, so don't go. Don't worry, the emperor sent us When we go to Mount Wutai, Xiaoyan also has to go to Mount Wutai to find Brother Mao. After we go to Mount Wutai, we will remind the young master."
Fang Yi said: "You are not from Prince Mu's Mansion, and if you don't know the secret secrets of Prince Mu's Mansion, you may not be able to find the young master soon." The little princess also said: "I haven't seen my brother for a long time, and I want to see him. Wei Xiaobao said: "Okay, let's go to Wutai Mountain together. But if you are in a hurry, don't be in a hurry. Let's take a rest first and eat before we set off."
The people inside brought four bowls of noodles. After the four people finished eating, Wei Xiaobao said to the old man: "Brother Xu, may I introduce three friends to you? These two are disciples of Mr. Liu, the 'Iron Back Canglong'. This is Miss Fang, and this is Miss Mu, the little princess of Prince Mu's Mansion. This is Xiaoyan, Brother Mao promised to accept him as his disciple, and I brought him here specially to become my disciple, but unfortunately I didn't meet him." And the other party said. Princess Yihe said: "Brother Xu is acquainted with Mr. Liu and your young father-in-law. It was a little trivial at first, but now it's all over."
The old man's name was Xu Tianchuan. It was he who had a dispute with brothers Bai Hansong and Bai Hanfeng from Prince Mu's Mansion over supporting Tang and Gui, and he accidentally beat Bai Hansong to death. Fortunately, Wei Xiaobao rescued Wu Lishen and three others, and this resolved the dispute between the Tiandi Society and Prince Mu's Mansion.
After the four of them had greeted each other, Wei Xiaobao said: "Brother Xu, we are also going to Mount Wutai. Can you please escort us?" Xu Tianchuan said respectfully: "Yes." Wei Xiaobao said again He handed Xu Tianchuan three hundred taels of silver notes and said: "Brother Xu, I had a good brother in the palace who was killed by the Tatar guards. I brought his ashes out and wanted to bury him properly. Please send him immediately." People go buy a coffin.”
Xu Tianchuan agreed to go. In addition to choosing a wooden coffin, he also had other shrouds, urns, lime, tissue paper, oilcloth, spiritual tablets, spiritual flags, paper money and other items readily available. He also bought clothes, shoes and hats for Fang Yi and the little princess to change into men's clothes, dry food and snacks for the journey, and also hired a widower and a painter. By the time everything arrived, the four of them had slept for two hours.
