"Second Miss! Come on, come on!" Zhan Ning happily pointed to the front.
At the end of the sky, Wu Shaoning came running quickly, one person and one horse. The big bird in the sky made a falcon call, loud and clear, resounding throughout the world. From time to time, it would fly low and follow him.
Xia Zhaoyi turned sideways and bent her knees, leaning on the door frame of the carriage. The curtain of the carriage was rolled aside, and the wind on the mountain road blew in her face, ruffling her broken hair.
Compared to how empty it was back then, her carriage was now full, stuffed with packages that Du Shaohong and the others had graciously given to her.
It has a very light salty taste, a bit like sea breeze, but not fishy or smelly.
After getting closer, Wu Shaoning got off his horse and said, "Miss Ali, Magistrate Xu and the others are all crying!"
Zhan Ning laughed and said: "Isn't it just leaving half a day early? There's nothing to cry about! I told you in advance that I would leave today, so it doesn't count as leaving without saying goodbye."
"They said that a farewell banquet was originally arranged for noon."
Xia Zhaoyi smiled: "I've eaten enough these days."
As she said that, she looked at the big package on Wu Shaoning's buttocks and said in surprise: "These are..."
Wu Shaoning hurriedly picked up the package: "Oh! These are for you too!"
When the coachman Zhuang Qi saw this, he went up to help Wu Shaoning.
Xia Zhaoyi was surprised: "This is too much."
She wasn't sure if the carriage would still fit.
Zhuang Qi said: "It's okay, it's okay, the horse isn't tired, anyway we are riding in pairs."
Zhan Ning helped them unpack the large package and put the small packages inside into the carriage one by one and arranged them.
Xia Zhaoyi had already gotten out of the car, and seeing how happy they were holding the gifts, she really agreed with what she said, too many gifts.
As if thinking of something, Wu Shaoning looked at Xia Zhaoyi: "By the way, Miss Ali, when I set out, someone just came back from Huangmiao Village in Aling Valley. He said he was a rebel general from Tangzhong Township and committed suicide two more times.
indivual."
Xia Zhaoyi paused slightly and said: "This is a good thing for the entire Lingzhou. The annihilation of the rebel army will allow Lingzhou to recuperate and resume operations."
After everything was loaded, Xia Zhaoyi got back into the carriage, and Zhan Ning and Wu Shaoning followed on both sides of the carriage.
Those who came to Lingzhou with Wu Shaoning need to stay in Lingzhou for a while and wait for the uprising forces in Tangzhong Township to completely disappear before returning.
At night, they rested at a post station on the official road.
After Xia Zhaoyi took a bath and was about to fall asleep, Wu Shaoning and Zhan Ning knocked on the door and said they had just received a letter from Yushuiyuan Town in Guzhou.
The windows in the house were all open, and the night breeze came in slowly, which was crisp and dry. Xia Zhaoyi finished reading line by line and said: "Qian Fengrong, I caught him."
Zhan Ning's eyes were overjoyed: "Great!"
Seeing that there was no joy on Xia Zhaoyi's face, Zhan Ning was curious: "Second Miss, how come you are not happy?"
Xia Zhaoyi put the letter away and said, "It's nothing."
She was not surprised that Qian Fengrong had such an end, because Qian Fengrong was destined to live a short life. After she finished her work, if Qian Fengrong was still alive, she would chase him to the ends of the earth. Even if she couldn't beat him with a bright sword or a bright gun,
He and she also have many methods of assassination.
What she felt sad about were those people who had been hurt by Qian Fengrong.
Seeing that she didn't want to say anything, Zhan Ning didn't ask any more questions. His eyes fell on the letter paper in Xia Zhaoyi's hand. Zhan Ning suddenly became curious: "That's not right. If General Shen went to Guzhou, wouldn't it be at the agreed time?"
Can’t come back?”
Wu Shaoning said hurriedly: "But our young master went to kill Qian Fengrong. This is a great thing, to eliminate harm for the people!"
Zhan Ning turned to look at him: "...Don't worry, I didn't say General Shen was wrong."
Xia Zhaoyi put away the letter and smiled: "Well, there's no rush, but... we can pick him up first instead of going to Hejing."
"Okay!" Wu Shaoning said immediately, "This must be an unexpected surprise for the young master. The young master is definitely very happy!"
Under the same moonlight, on the bright land of Songzhou, Xie Zhong and Xie Qiniang finally buried the last body in the deeply dug soil.
After many days, it was hot summer again, and the corpse had already stinked. When it was thrown in, the smell made Xie Qiniang vomit several times.
Xie Zhong is even more uncomfortable. His body is full of color, his cough has been relieved and he drank a lot. Now he is choking and coughing wildly.
Afraid of being heard, Xie Zhong pressed his collar to his mouth, trying to make the noise as quiet as possible.
Back at the wooden house, Xie Qiniang went to scoop up the hot water that had been prepared in advance.
When I came out, I saw Xie Zhong standing in the yard with his hands behind his hands, looking toward the south with a frown.
"Godfather?" Xie Qiniang came over, "What are you worried about?"
Xie Zhong looked at her and sighed: "I'm afraid it will take two days for my body to heal."
"Then let's rest for two more days."
"I'm afraid something might happen to Chang Yi," Xie Zhong withdrew his gaze and looked towards the place where the body was buried on the mountain. "I was fine a few days ago, but as time goes by, I feel more and more uneasy."
"The king is so powerful, who in the world can be his opponent? Godfather, don't worry, the king will be fine. The hot water is ready. Godfather, please take a bath and rest early."
Xie Zhong took a deep breath and nodded: "Yes."
Early the next morning, many people from nearby villages came looking for him, still asking about the missing person.
Xie Qiniang, who had gotten up early to prepare breakfast, came out and opened the courtyard door. She cried while holding her handkerchief when she heard this: "Don't tell me, my husband was fine the day before yesterday, but he hasn't come back for two days."
The people who came to inquire were sympathetic: "Is there someone missing in your family too?"
"Yes!" Xie Qiniang cried, "I want to go find him too, but my father is still ill. He has been ill for several days. If something happens to me after I go out, who will take care of my father?"
Everyone sighed and tried to comfort her.
Xie Zhong was awakened by these movements, got up and stood behind the door with his ear against the door.
Xie Qiniang cried and complained, and everyone gathered around her to persuade her not to be sad.
Xie Zhong raised his hand and touched the beard on his chin. He originally wanted to use this Xie Qiniang, so he sold her to get some money for his trip. Now he feels more and more that there are really many uses for her.
After everyone had left, Xie Zhong opened the door and came out.
Xie Qiniang was wiping her tears and walking back. Her face was not even half sad as before, and she flicked her handkerchief twice with an impatient and tired expression.
When she heard Xie Zhong's door opening, she changed her face again, raised her eyebrows and smiled, and walked quickly towards Xie Zhong's wing: "Godfather, you're awake!"
Xie Zhong nodded and looked at her with satisfaction: "Is there anything to eat?"
"Yes, yes! It's hot on the stove! Can I bring it to you?"
Xie Zhong said: "Okay, just take it to my room, but I have to wash up first."
Xie Qiniang said attentively: "There is also hot water, I will bring it to you right away!"
"Then hurry up. I have to go out for a walk after I finish eating to see if Chang Yi has sent someone to deliver a letter."
"Yeah! I'll go right away!" Xie Qiniang left in a hurry.
Xie Zhong smiled and raised his hand to touch the beard on his chin.
To raise a dog, you have to provide him with food. Not only does Xie Qiniang not need him to raise him, but she also serves him in return.
