I am fish

Chapter 42

After entering the back room, Xiaohua served refreshments to the three of them, crystal clear jujube paste cakes and steaming bean flour cakes, which made Zhen Wenjun, who hadn't eaten early in the morning, suddenly hungry.Wei Tingxu picked up a piece of jujube cake and handed it to Zhen Wenjun's mouth, the sauce-colored jujube cake made Wei Tingxu's fingers extraordinarily white.

Zhen Wenjun opened his mouth to bite the jujube paste cake, thanked him vaguely, and then heard Ah Liao tsk his tongue: "Tingxu really dotes on Wenjun's sister, it seems that I can't get her from you."

Wei Tingxu took a handkerchief and wiped off the oil stains on his fingertips: "Stop teasing her with such nonsense, and then you just said continue, how is Suichuan now?"

A Liao straightened his expression and said: "It has been a year since the war between Jixi Kingdom and Yuanqiu, and the Lord of Jixi Kingdom was captured alive by Yuanqiu's army. The prince pretended to be a refugee and originally wanted to escape to Dayu to ask for help and restore the country, but he didn't want to die halfway. General Yuanqiu intercepted him and slaughtered him on the spot. The crown prince failed to enter the country, but a large number of Jixi people came to Suichuan, and now Suichuan has become the second Jixi country. The Jixi barbarians were unbearable and burned after entering The people of Qi County, which is the closest to the country of Xi, suffered a lot, but Xie Taihang, the prefect of a county, packed up his clothes and fled with his family! Isn’t it ridiculous? Menmo is not the fetus of the tortoise king, it is a nest of eggs!"

Ah Liao spoke with high spirits as if talking about a play, and laughed out loud after he finished speaking.

Zhen Wenjun didn't finish a piece of jujube cake. Hearing such important news, he immediately lost his appetite.She had expected the homeless rebellion long ago, but she never thought it would be so serious.What A Liao meant was that the entire Qi County is now occupied by refugees.What about the Central Court?Should we just sit back and watch?And the Xie family, Xie Taihang is really a wine bag and rice bag, a rotten tree, and he took the lead in running away when the country was in crisis. He really didn't misunderstand him.Just where is Aunt?If Xie Taihang just ran away like this, where can he go, I am afraid that there is only Dongchun Xie's direct lineage.Zhen Wenjun guessed that Xie Taihang, who is such an important weight as his mother, would not deal with it hastily, but she couldn't feel at ease if he couldn't contact Xie's family.Thinking of Xu Weng's cough that seemed to be a secret signal yesterday, Zhen Wenjun decided to find a chance to meet Xu Weng alone.

"It's useless to come, and dying on the way saves Li Ju the perfunctory effort. If the imperial court has troops to go out, it will go out sooner, will it wait until today when he and Xi die?" Wei Tingxu chuckled and moved Handed the used handkerchief to Xiaohua, Xiaohua folded it into a pile, and then cleaned it together, "Xie Taihang's run has given up the whole of Suichuan. Once Suichuan is broken, the refugees will enter the cave in large numbers. Chun, Dongchun is the neighboring county of the capital, and Yuanqiu will attack Dongchun again. Once Dongchun is lost, Yuanqiu's army will go straight to Dayu's confidants, and the main force in the north will have to divide their troops back to Beijing. The difficult fortress in the north may be destroyed in an instant Destroyed. When the two armies attack Dayu, Li Ju will be scratching his head in a hurry."

A Liao laughed: "In the current situation, although Li Ju has the support of the national staff Xie Fuchen and other senior officials, but the eldest princess also has the support of the queen mother and the reformist new faction, the two parties are evenly matched, but in the end whoever can win the hearts of the people will win the favor." Can hold great power in his hands. The north has been harassed by the four big Hu tribes for so many years. The generals in Li Ju's hands died in battle like mountains of corpses. He still failed to wipe out the Hu tribes, and instead was captured eight counties. Not to mention the civilians in the north who suffered from the war, even the people in the Central Plains have long been panicked and complained. Da Yu's incompetence is Li Juzhi's stupidity. If the chaos in Suichuan can be quelled in the name of the eldest princess, and the people of the Li people will be relieved. Will lean more towards the eldest princess."

When Wei Tingxu said this, Zhen Wenjun wanted to understand that the Xie family that Wei Tingxu had been talking about all along was not the Xie Taihang family in Suichuan, but the direct descendant of Dongchun, and Xie Fuchen was the head of the Xie family in Dongchun.In this way, their fear is justified.Then Li Ju's name seemed familiar, where did I hear it... Zhen Wenjun suddenly remembered, isn't Li Ju the current day?This group of people is really fighting with open flames. It really is the eldest princess who dares to call the emperor by his name.

Wei Tingxu smiled meaningfully: "Ziyun is already on his way to Suichuan, we will meet him next month when we leave tomorrow."

"Oh? Li Ju actually let Ziyun go to Suichuan?"

"Of course he refused, but thanks to that old thief Xie Taihang's escape, Xie Fuchen was so angry that he complained of illness and did not go to court. In addition to the recommendation of his officials, Li Ju couldn't refuse with his clumsy tongue. After Ziyun entered Suichuan Presumably it will take less than two months to get rid of the suffering of Jixi refugees."

Zhen Wenjun silently ate more than half of the bean flour cake, causing Xiao Hua to stare at her all the time.

The name Ziyun is similar to that of Zizhuo.It is said that Wei Zi Zhuo is the youngest son of the Wei family, presumably there should be many elder brothers and sisters above her, and this Zi Yun may be her elder brother.

"Sister Wenjun." Wei Tingxu suddenly lifted her out, and Zhen Wenjun hurriedly wiped off the powder from the corner of his mouth, swallowed half of the pastry in his mouth, and replied:

"exist!"

"Now that my identity has been exposed, I don't have to hide it and be restrained anymore. You will be my right-hand man when I go back to Suichuan, and I will entrust many important matters to you. Don't let my sister down."

Zhen Wenjun swore another oath pointing to the sky, and when he looked up, he saw A Liao propping his head on one hand, his eyelids drooping and his mouth showing a see-through smile, this appearance made Zhen Wenjun's heart tremble, his eyes wandered, and he hurriedly recalled Didn't he just listened too seriously and couldn't control the pondering look on his face, which made Ah Liao aware of something?

"Beautiful." A Liao shook his head and sighed, "I see all the beauty of Wen Jun's sister."

Zhen Wenjun's eyeballs drew a large circle on the upper eyelid, and he gave her a secret look: "Thank you, Mr. Liao, for your praise."

After staying in Taojun City for a year, he finally wants to leave this place.When Lingbi packed up all her luggage and called three carriages, Zhen Wenjun still didn't wait for the news of Xie's visit, and even Mr. Xu didn't come to the door.Perhaps Xie Taihang was too busy running for his life to contact her... Thinking of this, Zhen Wenjun was a little confused.She hated news of the Xie family, but was worried when there was no news from the Xie family.

The three carriages basically didn't have any clothes, they only brought some clothes and furs, ingredients and kitchen utensils.Although Wei Tingxu didn't eat much, he liked how Xiaohua prepared a beautiful meal for her, so he packed a large cart with all the ingredients and cooking utensils.Lingbi Xiaohua and Wei Tingxu and Zhen Wenjun sat in a spacious two-horse cart, and the other maids sat in another cart.

Everyone will get in the car, Xiao Hua wants to carry Wei Tingxu into the car, Wei Tingxu said: "Wait a little longer."

"Who are you waiting for?" Lingbi was a little puzzled.

"Wait for Mr. Xu to make a plan."

Lingbi and Zhen Wenjun looked at each other, the three-day period had come, Zhongji hadn't shown up, presumably he had self-knowledge for fear that his eyes and hands would be gouged out if he couldn't cure it, so he didn't dare to come.

However, hearing what Wei Tingxu said with certainty, it seemed that the master and apprentice would definitely come.

After waiting for two sticks of incense, Xu Gong and Zhong Ji came riding on a bullock cart.

Zhongji bowed to Wei Tingxu and said: "I've thought about it, although the poison of the ghost dove is difficult to cure, it is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for doctors. This poison has long been extinct in the world, and I have only seen it in medical books. Scholars Warriors who break through thousands of volumes go to the perilous peaks, and what doctors pursue all their lives is to be able to save the world and crack strange poisons. I am afraid that there will be no second person who can survive after being poisoned by the ghost dove. It is really Zhong Ji who can meet Fortunately for the plan. Don't talk about losing a pair of eyes and hands, even if it takes my life, I want to try it. Please do it, girl."

Xiaohua's face was rarely moved, and Wei Tingxu asked her to stand up.

"We are going to Suichuan, are you willing to go together, master and apprentice?"

Zhong Ji looked at Xu Gong and waited for him to make a decision.Xu Gong sighed: "Go, go, this old man has already buried his body in the earth, it's rare for a disciple to have lofty ambitions, so the old man has to follow his disciple to wander the world."

Xugong and Zhongji followed their carriage to Suichuan, and they both had their own ox carts to follow.Zhong Ji said that Xiao Hua would fast for a whole day and start probing the acupoints with silver needles tomorrow.Xiao Hua ignored her and only looked at Wei Tingxu.Wei Tingxu nodded slightly, but she was speechless.

Xiaohua carried Wei Tingxu into the carriage, and the four-wheeled cart also moved in.There are two rugs covered with soft fur in the carriage, and Lingbi hangs curtains between the rugs to separate them.Xiaohua and Wei Tingxu sleep on the east side, Lingbi and Zhen Wenjun sleep on the west side.

The three carriages slowly set off on the road, and Zhen Wenjun recognized the groom as one of the first hidden guards when Jiang Daochang and Ajiao were assassinated. Looking at the other carriages, the groom and the pawns were all hidden guards.Each of these people's eyes are like swords, and they are staring at their surroundings all the time.Not to mention that Zhen Wenjun is good at remembering, even if it is an ordinary person with the naked eye, it will be difficult to forget these fierce-looking people.

It takes more than a month to go all the way to Suichuan. Although there is a direct official road, there are many thieves in today's troubled times.These few people are on the side, and there are guards who are out of sight to protect secretly. Bandits are not to be feared, but if political enemies are ambushing with heavy troops, I am afraid there will be more twists and turns.

Seeing that Wei Tingxu and Lingbi didn't talk about any dangerous things at all, could it be... Zhen Wenjun looked around the carriage, could it be that this carriage also has all kinds of hidden weapons?

Wei Tingxu's behavior style has always been unpredictable, Zhen Wenjun only knows that she has a plan in mind.But at this moment, Xie Taixing cannot protect himself, and I am afraid that he will not be able to withdraw to assassinate her again.Now Zhen Wenjun really doesn't want Xie's family to disturb her, she managed to gain Wei Tingxu's trust, this trip to Suichuan Wei Tingxu has high hopes for her, and she also expects to make more miracles.One day, if she can rescue her mother with the help of Wei Tingxu or even the Wei family, that would be great.

Wei Tingxu was weak and couldn't stand the bumps, so the carriage moved very slowly all the way.It was only after leaving the city that Zhen Wenjun remembered, and asked Lingbi, "Didn't Ah Liao go with us?"

Ling Bi laughed and said, "Ah Liao travels too ostentatiously, the girl always agrees with her on the meeting place and walks separately."

"So that's how it is." Zhen Wenjun looked at Wei Tingxu who was close at hand behind the hanging curtain, and suddenly thought that she would get close to the unpredictable Wei Tingxu in this carriage for more than a month, and his scalp tingled just thinking about it.Fortunately, Ah Liao was not around, otherwise it would be even more difficult.

After five days in the carriage, he stopped at a post station in a small county town.A group of people got off the carriage, and Wei Tingxu's face was not very good. When Xiaohua carried her down, Zhen Wenjun saw her frowning slightly leaning on Xiaohua's shoulder, and her lips were slightly pale. Obviously, she was also suffering from the exhaustion of the journey. .

Zhen Wenjun unloaded the four-wheeled cart from the carriage, and looked at Wei Tingxu worriedly: "Sister's complexion is not good, do you want Xu Weng to come and see?"

Wei Tingxu smiled weakly: "Let my sister worry, just rest for a day. It's a long way to Suichuan, so my sister will also have a good rest tonight."

Zhen Wenjun: "Yes, my sister also rested earlier."

Xiaohua carried Wei Tingxu into the room, and Lingbi also took some change of clothes and asked Zhen Wenjun whether he wanted to take a bath or eat first.Zhen Wenjun glanced at the sky and said: "It's still early, I'll take a bath first to refresh myself."

Lingbi responded and went to prepare hot water. Zhen Wenjun had been jolting in the carriage for the past few days, his bones were falling apart, his waist was sore and his legs were sore, he just wanted to do boxing to move his muscles and bones. Stretched waist and legs in the courtyard of the post station.

Just as he was about to return to his room, an old man with white beard came across.Zhen Wenjun didn't notice the old man at first, but the two words he uttered when they passed by made her extremely astonished.

The old man shouted: "Ah Lai!"

Zhen Wenjun raised his head suddenly, and saw Xiaohua and Wei Tingxu standing on the corridor above their heads, looking at her coldly.
