Chapter 377 Hurry up
Gu Jinzhi visited Zhen's house in Liujiazhuang for the third time. Master Zhen and Grandma Zhen relaxed their vigilance and were quite happy.
They welcome Gu Jinzhi.
Then, they saw the handsome young man following Gu Jinzhi, dressed in simple clothes and outstanding temperament, with bright eyes and a smile. They couldn't help but be stunned.
Gu Jinzhi said, "This is the king of Luyang, my husband. I brought him here today to pay a New Year's greeting to the old man. You think I'm a daughter. I haven't seen my husband yet.
Master Zhen's eyes were suddenly moist.
Grandma Zhen quickly knelt down and kowtowed to Zhu Zhongjun.
They welcomed Gu Jinzhi and Zhu Zhongjun to the middle hall of the Zhen family, and the maids held tea.
"When did my brother come back to the city?" Gu Jin asked Grandma Zhen affectionately.
Grandma Zhen hurriedly replied, "He rushed back in the early morning of the first lunar month and said that he would come back on the Shangyuan Festival. Lord Tan valued him. He can't be idle and spends less time at home..."
Gu Jinzhi sighed.
"I came out of the palace yesterday and saw him. Otherwise, I wouldn't have rushed here in a hurry..." Gu Jin's way.
Grandma Zhen and Master Zhen were slightly stunned.
Both of them looked at each other and looked at Gu Jinzhi again.
Gu Jinzhi smiled slightly, but stopped talking about this topic. He only asked Grandma Zhen, "How many children are there in the family?" I've been here several times, but I haven't seen it. Today is the Spring Festival. Why don't you invite them to pay a New Year's greeting for me?
Grandma Zhen's attention was immediately pulled back.
She smiled and said, "Country children, I don't know the rules. I'm so naughty that I'm afraid of bumping into you, so I dare not let them kowtow."
"I don't like to hear that." Gu Jinzhi smiled and said, "Who in Beijing doesn't know that I grew up in the countryside? Is it possible that you grow up in the countryside and dislike the children in the countryside? Go and get it. Let me see what it looks like. How many aunts are there at home? Bring it here and let me have a look..."
Seeing that Gu Jinzhi was sincere, Grandma Zhen hurried to bring all the children over.
In just half a quarter of an hour, a group of people followed Grandma Zhen in.
The first is three boys, the oldest of whom is seven or eight years old, who looks very much like Zhen Mo; the younger three or four years old, dressed very thickly, a little unable to move his feet, pink, neither like Zhen Mo, nor like Grandma Zhen, and looks like the aunt behind.
Then, there were two girls, both wearing pink long jackets and buns. They are all five or six years old. One is a little dark, lively and clever, and his eyes are straight to Gu Jinzhi and Zhu Zhongjun, curious; the other is white and shy.
Five children kowtowed to Gu Jinzhi one after another.
One of Gu Jin gave them a purse.
After that, Zhen Mo's three concubines also came forward and kowtowed to Gu Jin.
Gu Jinzhi also sent out the New Year's money.
She didn't let them go, but asked them one by one.
Five children, three aunts, Gu Jin asked in detail, and accidentally asked Grandma Zhen a few words. Three of these children are the biological children of Grandma Zhen. The other two were born to two aunts. There was also an old aunt whose child died, and then she was childless.
Several aunts are not particularly beautiful, gentle and obedient.
Unconsciously, when it was dusk, the sky faded.
The bodyguard arranged by Shicang has also arrived.
Gu Jinzhi got up and said to Grandma Zhen, "Sister-in-law, let's move and say a few words..."
Grandma Zhen was suspicious. Thinking of Gu Jinzhi's saying just now that Zhen Mo went to see her yesterday, she was nervous and followed Gu Jinzhi out of the middle hall.
Zhu Zhongjun has been sitting in silence.
At this moment, he picked up the maid's newly added hot tea and took a sip slowly.
He didn't say anything, and people all over the room dared not speak, and the lively atmosphere suddenly cooled down.
Gu Jinzhi and Grandma Zhen have left the house.
The two of them didn't go far or even find another place to talk, but just walked slowly along the wall. Gu Jinzhi has been chatting with people recently, and it seems that he loves to be in the ice and snow.
"Sister-in-law, the capital is about to be peaceful..." Gu Jinzhi said to Grandma Zhen.
She has a sister-in-law, which makes Grandma Zhen feel very intimate.
It's just these words that make people feel cold.
"What?" Grandma Zhen asked. She did not suspect that Gu Jinzhi had lied to her. She just thought that she lived in the countryside and the news was blocked. And Gu Jinzhi is in the city, and he is also a princess. He knows everything.
Grandma Zhen feels that Gu Jinzhi is close again.
She believed Gu Jinzhi's words from the bottom of her heart.
"...not many people know." Gu Jinzhi lowered his voice and said, "Before, Juyong Guandilong turned over, and many fortifications collapsed. Have you heard of it? Last time there was a blizzard, many livestock were frozen to death in the grassland. The Mongols rely on livestock for their livelihood. The livestock froze to death, and they couldn't survive. They fought over.
Grandma Zhen's heart tightened.
She quickly asked, "Where did you hit it?"
"It's almost time for Juyong." Gu Jin said, "The court was afraid of the panic of hundreds of letters in the capital, so it concealed it. The eldest brother was very worried about the family, and he also said that the old man had never enjoyed Qingfu. When the war happened, the life was ruined, but how could it be good..."
Grandma Zhen's heart is like being immersed in ice water.
She can't judge whether Gu Jinzhi's words are true or false at all.
If it's true, what should I do? Listening to Gu Jinzhi's meaning, Ju Yongguan can't stop the Mongols, and it's only a few days to hit the capital.
But what if it's fake?
What's the reason for Gu Jinzhi to deceive them?
Gu Jinzhi was very kind to the Zhen family. He visited the house several times and said that Zhen Mo was her savior, and she had no reason to lie.
Grandma Zhen made a simple judgment in her heart and chose to believe Gu Jinzhi.
"Why is that good?" Grandma Zhen was anxious and couldn't breathe smoothly.
"Go south." Gu Jin said, "Big brother didn't say it clearly, but the meaning came. He wants me to help you and go south as soon as possible. If the news spreads, there will be more and more people going south, and it will be difficult to walk on the road..."
Grandma Zhen nodded repeatedly and said, "Thank you for telling me. I'll pack up tomorrow and ask someone to go to Tongzhou to hire a boat to go south..."
"Where can I make it tomorrow?" Gu Jin said, "Think about it, if Juyong goes to the capital, it will only take more than a day. Mongolian horses are riding faster. They attack overnight, and the city can still block it. Your countryside has become a place for Mongolian soldiers to camp. Is there any way to live?
Grandma Zhen subconsciously pulled up her collar.
The chill soaked her whole body.
Gu Jinzhi's identity is there. There is no conflict of interest between her and the Zhen family, and Zhen Mo is kind to her. When Grandma Zhen heard the words of the war, she thought of death and war. She was already in a mess. She didn't have to think about anything carefully and listened to all Gu Jinzhi's words.
She asked Gu Jinzhi nervously, "You mean to walk overnight?"
"Yes, let's go now." Gu Jin said, "That's what the big brother means. He is still on duty today and can't come back to see you off. He gave me some silver tickets, saying that he borrowed them from Dr. Tan and gave them to you, so that you must take the child and the old master to leave quickly.
"Okay, okay..." Grandma Zhen's lips were a little shivering. I don't know if it was frozen or afraid, "He won't come back at night?"
"If he can make time to come back, he won't bother me." Gu Jin's way.
Grandma Zhen looked at Gu Jinzhi.
She thought that Zhen Mo dared to boldly trouble the King of Luyang and the Princess of Luyang, which was indeed a matter of urgency, and the Tan family had always looked down on the Zhen family and would not help.
The only one who can help is Princess Luyang.
Although Zhen Mo cares about his family, he is quite indifferent. He asked someone to arrange for his family to leave, and lent money to his family, just like Zhen Mo's style.
Grandma Zhen no longer suspects him.
She nodded and said, "Okay, I'll listen to you. I'm going to hire a car now..."
"No need to hire a car." Gu Jin said, "I will send the Buddha to the west, and the carriage and escort have been arranged for you. They will take you to Luzhou, Anhui. Luzhou is the prince's territory. Avoid it for a while first. If it is safe, come back.
Grandma Zhen really thought she was going to Luzhou and nodded and said yes.
Gu Jinzhi asked her to tell her confidant maid to pack up her things.
The carriages are parked at the west back door of Zhen's compound.
Everyone in the Zhen family, except for Grandma Zhen, didn't know what was going on. Everyone couldn't help but panic.
But Grandma Zhen is very authoritative at home, and no one dares to question her words. Even the old man is confused.
Zhu Zhongjun whispered to Shicang: "Arrange a team of people to go from the direction of Luzhou. You go to another road, set up more suspicious soldiers, so that people can't catch up, and send them directly to Guangxi.
Ishikura Road is.
Gu Jinzhi took another 20,000 taels of silver to Grandma Zhen, asking her to eat and chase on the way.
Grandma Zhen packed up her softness, and put all the other precious things in the warehouse, leaving a confidant to guard the house first and wait for them to come back.
They were on their way overnight.
There was no movement at all.
Although the servants left by the Zhen family were afraid and didn't know what was going on, no one dared to go to the city to tell Zhen Mo.
Gu Jinzhi left another bodyguard to take care of him for two days.
It's already dark, and there is a curfew in the city.
Gu Jinzhi and Zhu Zhongjun stayed in Zhen's house for one night instead.
They got up on the fourth watch, ready to go back to the city, and opened the gate in the city on the fifth watch.
When they rushed to the city, the two went straight back to the royal palace and had breakfast. The couple didn't wake up until noon.
In the afternoon, the two visited some other people again.
Like the eldest princess and the eldest princess, they all went to pay New Year's greetings and only left the Jian Palace.
The next day, the stone warehouse that sent the Zhen family came back.
He said, "It's safe on the road, and no one is chasing..."
Zhu Zhongjun nodded with satisfaction.
On the third day, Si Jian also came back from Tongzhou.
He has arranged an empty fleet to go south.
After two days of walking, the Zhen family has gone a long way.
Zhen Mo still hasn't found it.
He didn't plan to go back to his home in the countryside before the fifteenth day of the first lunar month.
I usually go back once a month, but I didn't expect anything to happen at home.
Once again, I asked for votes for the role of "Zhu Zhongjun". Everyone clicks on the page of Spring Boudoir Notes, and there are the characters of the work on the right, which can be directly connected. If you still have a free ticket, please support one. Thank you all on the 15th! RS
