A villager who passed by Bai's house saw that the gate of his house was closed, stood on tiptoe to look, and saw that the mule cart was not there, so they knew that Bai Yitang had left again.

Shaking his head enviously, "The life in Bai Yitang is so chic, you can leave as soon as you want." Thinking that the autumn tax will be paid soon, he didn't dare to delay any longer, and hurried to the field with a hoe on his shoulder.

At this time, Bai Yitang was already waiting at the pier with Qin Wenyin. He generously changed his outfit, and then carried Niuniu onto the boat. Qin Wenyin followed with a small burden. As for the mule, the mule cart and the carriage The things are pulled onto the boat by the boatmen.

That's right, Bai Yitang took a "luxury cruise ship" and didn't disembark until he went all the way to Hangzhou. The three of them went to Hangzhou to visit relatives. One ticket was only 22 taels, half price for children, plus fodder for mules and carriages , Land occupation fees, they have to pay a total of sixty taels.

The boatman persuaded Bai Yitang in a low voice, "You might as well sell the mule and carriage and bring the luggage up. At least you can save ten taels of silver, which is enough to buy a mule."

Bai Yitang said stubbornly: "This mule has been with me for three years, I don't want to part with it."

The corner of Qin Wenyin's mouth twitched, and she turned her head away. Is this person's day a year?

Niuniu is no stranger to boats, there are many fishing boats in the village, but this is the first time she has seen such a big boat, she broke free from Bai Yitang's arms and ran around as soon as she got on the boat, she is short and can't see the sea even on tiptoe , can not help but worry.

Bai Yitang picked her up and threatened her, "If I accidentally let go of you, you'll fall down with a thud, and you won't be able to find it again."

Niuniu giggled, "Master bullied me, I'm going to tell grandma."

Bai Yitang nodded her nose and said: "It's just as thoughtful as your brother, but it's also good. It would be great if you were bullied to death by your brother like my idiot."

Niuniu's eyes were full of ignorance, but soon her attention was attracted by the big boat that was gradually moving.

The sails are slowly raised, and the boatmen on board are trying their best to turn the rudder to raise the sails. The boat is driving faster and faster. The sea breeze seems to be blowing from the front, blowing Bai Yitang's hair, and his clothes seem to be bulging. , Niuniu yelled "Wow", and stretched out Xiaopang's hand to grab his hair.

Bai Yitang patted her little paw lightly, and said with a smile: "Let's go, go back and bring you a hat."

There will be three stops along the way from Qiongzhou to Hangzhou to replenish fresh water, and it is also a time for the boat passengers to relax and buy some urgently needed supplies.

Zhou Baishu went to the doctor with a medicine box on his shoulders when the little girl's health was getting better and better. It is said that he got a lot of inspiration from the Li family's medical books. nothing.

Bai Yitang didn't dare to give her a blowjob, otherwise, if he couldn't get to the shore to find a doctor, would he and Qin Wenyin cry, or would they cry?

Bai Yitang carried the little girl back to the cabin, but fortunately she had strong vitality and didn't even catch a cold along the way, the three of them arrived in Hangzhou comfortably, and they were already ahead of Qin Xinfang and the others.

Qin Xinfang and his group, who had set off three days earlier, arrived in Nanchang at this time. They planned to take the waterway, but the boat ran into a hidden reef when it was near Guangzhou. Fortunately, there were many fishing boats nearby at that time, and the people on board were surprised. He went ashore dangerously.

But if you want to take the next boat, you have to wait, and the accompanying guard feels that the sea is not safe, so he decisively diverts to land, and the route is determined by him and Qin Xinfang, and only the two of them know the route .

Sure enough, the road ahead went much smoother, but they still encountered assassins when they approached Nanchang.

But this should be the vanguard, there are not many people, they only slightly injured two people and beheaded these assassins before their horses.

Qin Xinfang got off the carriage and tore off the cloth towel from the assassin's face, checked and said, "It's not from Dachu."

The chief guard immediately said: "My lord, we have to speed up our journey."

Qin Xinfang means a lot to Chu, the crown prince is about to ascend the throne, but he is weak, and he is afraid that he will share state affairs with the grandson in the future, but the grandson has only been taught by the prince, and has been deliberately shielded from state affairs by the emperor in the past. A capable minister can guide the prince and grandson.

What's more, Qin Xinfang is still the spiritual pillar of many people, as long as he is in the capital, he will be a shock.

Qin Xinfang obviously knew this too, clasped his hands together and said, "Let's go, let the Nanchang garrison send out some cavalry, we march quickly, and we can reach the capital in ten days."

And Bai Yitang took Qin Wenyin and Niu Niu to visit most of Hangzhou, and even went to the West Lake to eat a dish of West Lake vinegar fish, and then took his family's mule, which was still a little dizzy, on the road after resting all night. .

After seeing the endless sea, I looked at the green mountains and green waters, and when I was tired from working in the car, I could get out of the car and run around picking flowers and catching butterflies on the grass.

Qin Wenyin sprinkled the insect repellent powder around, washed her hands, then went to pick up the sleeping Niu Niu and put her on the blanket laid beside her. Turning around, Bai Yitang poured vegetables, mushrooms and chicken into the pot In the middle of the day, she stepped forward to pick out the vegetables with some helplessness, and said in a low voice, "Put it down when the chicken is almost cooked."

Bai Yitang immediately gave her the job of cooking, and sat cross-legged on the side, occasionally handing her some things she needed.

At this time, the night breeze was cool, and the fire shone on Qin Wenyin's face, showing an orange tenderness. The expression on Bai Yitang's face couldn't help but soften, and he turned his head to look in Niuniu's direction, "The mule cart is tired from driving, waiting to enter. When we arrive in Suzhou, we will take an extra day off."

"How long will it take to reach the capital?"

Bai Yitang calculated in his mind, and said: "At the current speed, if there are no accidents, we can arrive in twelve or three days."

They took their children with them and didn't dare to walk quickly. They had to stop for lunch at noon, and they had to stop early in the evening to find a place to sleep. If the child was not happy halfway, they would stop the car and take her to play and walk for a while.

Qin Wenyin was worried, "I don't know what happened to my eldest brother and sister-in-law?"

"Don't worry, they'll be fine." Bai Yitang leaned on the tree trunk behind him relaxedly, and said, "This is still the territory of Dachu, those Tatars can't make any trouble."

Although he is from the rivers and lakes, he is also sensitive to government affairs, and he is not a fool. The relationship between countries is actually similar to that between sects.

So as long as he substitutes this world into Jianghu, he will understand everything.

No matter how bad Chu was, he would never let a group of Tatars come to his house to kill people.

Bai Yitang guessed right, when they were on their way leisurely, Qin Xinfang and the others were rushing towards the capital, and the assassins appeared one after another, but they were all killed before they entered Qin Xinfang's body.

During the period, they experienced poisoning and sniping, but all of them were resolved one by one. After all, there were a lot of people escorting Qin Xinfang and his wife this time, and the prince issued a national order, and all counties along the way must protect Qin Xinfang's safety.

Therefore, all the counties where Qin Xinfang has passed and is about to leave are all on first-level security. When Qin Xinfang comes to the front line, he will check and crack down on them, and the suspicious people will be checked and checked again. Or a lot of them were taken away.

Although Qin Xinfang went all the way back to Beijing, the effect was obvious, and he didn't suffer any injuries.

Gu Jingyun got the news early and stayed up all night. The next day, before the cock crowed, he got up and pushed Li Baolu beside him.

Li Baolu opened her eyes in a daze, turned over and asked in a daze, "What's wrong?"

"Get up, we're going to pick up my uncle and aunt at the gate of the city."

Li Baolu reluctantly opened her eyes to look at the pitch-black night sky outside, and immediately fell back on the pillow and grabbed the quilt without letting go, wailing, "The city gate is still open, let's sleep a little longer."

"It's almost time for you to get dressed and then wash up. We still have to rush to the city gate..." Gu Jingyun didn't want her to sleep again, so he stretched out his hand to grab her.

Instead, Li Baolu pulled him down on the bed, turned over and held him down, and said, "Sleep a little longer, Uncle and the others don't arrive until Sishi (nine o'clock in the morning) at least, and it's only Yinshi (three o'clock in the morning) now, what are you doing there?"

But he can't sleep!

Gu Jingyun wanted to push him away, but Li Baolu felt that the world was the biggest sleeper, so she lay on top of him, buried her head by his neck, found a comfortable position, and fell asleep naively.

The person who fell asleep was very heavy, Gu Jingyun helplessly pushed her away to prevent her from pressing on him, but she hugged him tightly with both arms, Gu Jingyun saw that she was sleeping soundly, so it was not easy to shake her Waking up, I had to keep my eyes open and wait for the dawn.

It's just that the person next to him was so sleepy, his head was buried on his neck, and the hot air that came out swept over his neck little by little. Gu Jingyun's eyes staring at the ceiling were also slightly sore, and he closed them sleepily. Eyes, he thought, he would just squint for a while, and after a while, whether she wanted to or not, he had to wake her up and wait at the gate of the city, and he couldn't miss his uncle and aunt.

Thinking that Gu Jingyun, who had only been squinting for a while, was already dawn when Li Baolu shook him awake, he sat up in shock and said angrily, "Why is it so late?"

It was rare for Li Baolu to see such a child like him, and said with a smile: "It's not too late, it's only 12:00, you get up and change your clothes, breakfast is already ready, we can go out of the city when we are full, and go directly to the ten-mile long pavilion outside the city to wait. .”

Qin Xinfang and the others had only entered Baoding last night when they got the news. Even if they set off today at Maoshi (five o'clock in the morning), it would still take two hours to reach the capital.

Gu Jingyun hurriedly got up and took breakfast to the carriage for the first time, Li Baolu didn't stop her when she saw this, climbed into the carriage and sat down.

She also wanted to see Uncle Qin and Aunt Qin very much.

When the young couple arrived at the Ten Mile Chang Pavilion, they found that there were many people around. Seeing Gu Jingyun and Li Baolu get off the car, many people nodded to Gu Jingyun, and some people saluted him from afar.

Gu Jingyun froze for a moment, then cupped his hands in return.

These people came to pick up Qin Xinfang and He Zipei. Before they arrived at Sishi, the side of the Ten Mile Pavilion was full of carriages and people. Li Baolu also saw someone driving an ox cart, supported by a few young men. A very old man sat on the grass beside the road and waited. These people were all officials who were imprisoned wrongly. Resignation does not do.

Gathering here now, there are high-ranking people, squires, and down-and-out farming and studying families. The purpose of their coming here today is the same, that is, to meet face to face with those who saved them from the fire and water, but fell into the fire and water themselves.

Gu Jingyun and Li Baolu's hearts were pounding, and it was the first time that they sincerely felt that what their uncle did back then was not wrong.
