Chapter 163 Urgent March
Danyue blinked in astonishment and couldn't help asking, "Girl, go to Taiping Mansion? Didn't you mean to go to Liangdi? Why did you suddenly go to Taiping Mansion? What are you going to do there? Are we going to Taiping Mansion?
"Well, it's not a big deal. What's the big deal if you can go to Taiping Mansion? Just have fun. Take you and Begonia to learn more, eat a bowl of crab noodles, make a few new clothes, and visit Baiyun Temple. In addition to eating, drinking and having fun, what can you do in Taiping Mansion?" Li Xiaoyao talked with a smile, and Danyue looked at Li Xiaoyao suspiciously and muttered in a low voice, "The girl is making us happy again." Li Xiaoyao reached out and took off the golden hairpin on his head, handed it to Dan Yue, and yawned and said, "There is no time to have fun. From now on, we have to keep going. We have to rest in this car tonight. Let's lay down after packing up and sleep for a while." Danyue answered, came on her knees and padd the surroundings with a cushion, opened the mezzanine of the car to take out the quilt, and waited for Li Xiaoyao to take off her clothes and fold them out. Li Xiaoyao yawned, straightened her legs and lay down. The car was so big enough that she straightened her body to reach the front car plate. Li Xiaoyao He yawned and said, "Let's sleep together, go out, and have a good rest and don't get sick. Let go of those rules first." Dan Yue hurriedly agreed with a smile, carefully took the quilt and spread it out, and lay down beside Li Xiaoyao.
Li Xiaoyao also slept well in the bumpy night. The next day, it was just dawn. Danyue got up and quietly cleaned up his quilt. He raised the curtain and was about to send a message to the begonia in the car behind. Nanning came over and said with a smile, "Miss Danyue woke up and will arrive at Shen's post in half an hour. , someone has been sent a message to prepare hot water and soup, and then wait for the fifth master to wash up there. Danyue thanked with a smile and was about to put down the curtain and shrink back, as if she remembered something. She quickly probed her head and said, "The girl told me yesterday not to call the fifth master in the future, just call it the fifth girl."
"Thank you for reminding Miss Danyue." Nanning arched his hand politely. Danyue put down the curtain and turned back. Li Xiaoyao had already shaken with the car. He sat up with his arms lazily, raised his hand to curl his hair, lifted the curtain and looked back, yawned, and then fell back. He pulled up the quilt and said, "There is still half an hour left for Shen's station. I will sleep again. Call me when you get there. Danyue answered with a smile.
Li Xiaoyao got out of the car in the main courtyard of the post station, bathed and washed clean, sat on the kang in the main room, and slowly drank a bowl of porridge while turning over the newspaper of Wu Di sent by Nanning: Wu Guifei went to Baiyun Temple to fast for a day to pray for blessings. Prime Minister Lin used his mother's 60th birthday to save the lonely and helpless people in the capital. Tang Genyuan, the servant of the Ministry of Ceremonies, wrote a letter to Li Tai Son, the eldest concubine Yang's side concubine, Li Xiaoyao slowly ate more than half of the bowl of porridge, turned over the newspaper again, thought for a moment, put a few notes around and played with them for a while, threw a few notes into the charcoal basin and burned them. He turned to look at the begonia and ordered, "Call Nanning." Haitang went out for a moment and led Nanning in. Li Xiaoyao looked at him and asked, "How many days will it take to get to Rucheng according to such a itinerary?"
"Our journey is not slow or fast. If it goes well, it will take about 12 or three days to get to Rucheng." Nanning said very carefully. Li Xiaoyao frowned. It will take twelve or three days to get to Rucheng, and there is still more than half of the way from Rucheng to Taiping Mansion. If this is the way, it will take a month to get to Taipingfu at the earliest••••••
"If it is according to the urgent march, how many days will it take to get to Rucheng?"
"That's fast. It will arrive in four and a half days." Nanning smiled and replied. Li Xiaoyao rubbed one finger against his eyebrows. Alas, this is really a sin!
"I don't want that car. Let's change horses all the way. We must go to Rucheng within five days according to the urgent march." Li Xiaoyao ordered with a distressed face. Nanning was stunned and quickly advised, "Girl, this can't be done! The master has ordered that the girl's body is more important than anything else. If she is in such a hurry, the girl must be tired and sick, or••••••”
"Okay!" Li Xiaoyao raised his hand to stop Nanning: "I also know it's so hard. I can't wait to walk ten miles and eight miles a day and swim all the way through the mountains and rivers. Isn't it possible? OK!" Li Xiaoyao stopped Nanning, who was about to talk, and then said, "I've been thinking about it for a long time. If you want to go to Taiping Mansion, you can only find three sets of clothes like everyone else, and then rush to the road. Well, you and you have a long-term effort to arrange your itinerary, rest for half an hour every day, and bathe and wash." Seeing that there was no room for discussion with Li Xiaoyao, Nanning had to swallow his saliva and nodded and answer. Li Xiaoyao continued to order, "There is still something important. Let him go down in the long run. First, let someone go to the Song family in Yuling Township, Taizhou to check a man named Song Zhiqian. This person just returned to his hometown last year and was a master in Zhengcheng before returning home. , you should check it carefully. Nanning listened and nodded to write it down. Li Xiaoyao then ordered, "Second, find out where Mr. Lin, the famous nephew of Prime Minister Lin, is now and whether he has come back. He should be with a monk named Zhijing. If he is not in the same place, both of them must find out where they are now and what they are doing. Third, open There is a hook fence called Red Mansion in the tiles of Pingfu South Bridge. Have you heard of it?
"I've heard of it." Nanning hurriedly replied, and Li Xiaoyao continued with a 'um' sound and then said, "The former red peony of the Red Mansion, nicknamed Luo Yan, followed a big businessman named Qian Fuze last year. I heard that Qian Fuze's family is from Taiping Mansion, so I asked people to inquire about this Qian Fuze and Luo Yan." Nanning repeated three things. Seeing that Li Xiaoyao nodded, he took a few steps back and went out to spread the message.
Li Xiaoyao watched him go out, turned his head and asked, "You two also heard it. From tomorrow, you have to rush to Taipingfu. This journey is not an ordinary hardship. I'm afraid you can't stand it. Or you two go back. Well, don't go back to Kaipingfu. I'll write a letter, and you two Let's go to Liangdi with the prince's motorcade. Danyue and Haitang shook their heads desperately: "If a girl can stand it, we can also stand it. Even if we are exhausted, we have to follow the girl everywhere!" Li Xiaoyao looked at the two silent and didn't say anything. Haitang was a little anxious. She knelt on the ground with her skirt and promised, "Don't worry, you will be able to stand it. Don't send us back. If you go back, you will die!" Li Xiaoyao opened his eyes wide and pointed to Begonia and couldn't speak for a moment. Danyue hurriedly knelt down and explained in a low voice, "It must be a secret for a girl to go to Taiping Mansion. There is no way for us to live without the girl." Danyue's voice became lower and lower, but Li Xiaoyao understood in an instant, exhaled gently, and quickly raised his hand and said, "Get up, I didn't think of it. I didn't expect this. Alas, I almost hurt you well. Get up, pack up quickly, and hurry up later." Danyue and Haitang quickly stood up, answered with a burst of smile, and busy packing up their things. The servant outside sent clothes in. The two waited for Li Xiaoyao to change their clothes, put on their cloaks and hats, and wrapped their heads and faces tightly. They also changed their clothes and followed Li Xiaoyao out of the main room.
followed Nanning in for a long time and half-heartedly reported to Li Xiaoyao: "What the girl ordered has been passed on, and the front station has also departed. The stations in front of us have prepared horses at the intersection. Let's change horses and leave. We will rest for half an hour in Luoqiuyi tonight, and tomorrow morning in Zhangmu Post rests for half an hour••••••”
"You can discuss these details with Nanning and Xi'an." Li Xiaoyao raised his hand and interrupted the long-term words. As he motioned him to go out, he continued, "Let's set off quickly."
"Yes!" In the long run, he agreed to let Li Xiaoyao, Danyue and Haitang follow him out of the post station. More than a dozen people got on the horse and galloped in the direction of Rucheng.
On this journey, except for half an hour of resting in the morning and night to wash and drink hot water to change clothes, the rest of the time were galloping immediately. In the long run, Nanning's itinerary was extremely accurate. On the morning of the fifth day, the group entered Rucheng Post, which was also the last post station from Beiping to Wu.
Li Xiaoyao was so tired that he was like a handful of scattered bones. He didn't know where it hurt for a long time. He got off the horse and tried his best to suppress the idea of being softlyzed on the ground and never getting up again. He moved his legs into Ruchengyi and washed out. Long-term and Nanning have arranged vehicles. Li Xiaoyao narrowed his eyes and looked at the oil in front of him. The bright and beautiful tung wooden car was surrounded by thick cotton cloth. The corners of the car were wrapped in bright copper pieces. At first glance, it was used by the rich people's family. Li Xiaoyao nodded with satisfaction and looked at Nanning and asked, "Is this car prepared by Rucheng?"
"It was prepared by Rucheng, but not Lord Yao, but prepared by Rucheng's spy report." Li Xiaoyao explained with a long smile. He took a breath and calculated for a moment and ordered, "In the State of Wu, there must be a suitable reason to travel day and night like this. In this way, let's go to the funeral. No matter how busy I am, I'm exhausted. I will rest here for three or four hours. Everyone has a good sleep. Be prepared and leave in the middle of the night. Nanning and Changyuan were choked by Li Xiaoyao's mourning words and were stunned for a moment before they looked at each other and answered.
Danyue and Begonia were so tired that they couldn't even speak. Hearing Li Xiaoyao say that they were going to rest for a long time, tears of excitement almost gushed out. They quickly moved over and reluctantly waited for Li Xiaoyao to sleep on the kang. The two also climbed to the other end of the big kang, pulled up the quilt and fell asleep. At this time, they were so tired that they couldn't take care of anything!
