When she woke up again, Lin Jingmo was already on the bumpy carriage. The pain in her abdomen hit her. She knew that she was not dead. Because she was injured, she could not get up, so she just lay silently in the carriage,
Let it take you wherever it goes.
Lin Jingmo stared at the not-so-high roof of the car, feeling extremely desperate. All his relatives had been killed, and he had always been beside his enemy...
She lowered her eyes and suddenly thought of Shang Shixu.
Is he... dead?
He must be dead. How could he still be alive when the knife hit his vital point?
Suddenly the carriage stopped, and Lin Jingmo's thoughts also became quiet.
The car curtain was opened, revealing the wonderful fragrance.
"Madam, are you awake?" Qiaoxiang walked into the carriage, helped Lin Jingmo up and said, "Madam, would you like to eat some dry food and drink some water first?"
Lin Jingmo shook his head and asked, "Where are we going?"
Qiaoxiang replied: "We are on the way to Shuzhou, and we have already left the capital city!"
Shuzhou... that is Lin Jingmo's hometown. Lin Yuanzhi set out from Shuzhou to the capital to take the exam, and finally became the Minister of the Ministry of Civil Affairs step by step.
Lin Jingmo didn't speak. She lowered her head numbly, staring at one spot and then stopped moving.
Seeing this, Qiaoxiang lowered her head and glanced at Lin Jingmo, took out a letter from her arms and handed it to her.
Lin Jingmo took the letter and said, "Lin Jingmo personally writes this." The handwriting on it was very familiar to me. It was the Shang Dynasty...
Lin Jingmo put down the letter and continued to sit blankly with eyes blank, because she understood that Shang Shixu was not dead and she could not take revenge after all.
Qiaoxiang picked up the letter again and said, "Madam, aren't you curious about what you wrote?"
Lin Jingmo glanced at Shang Shixu's letter to her, turned her head and said lightly: "No matter what he wrote, what's the meaning now?"
Qiaoxiang put the letter back into Lin Jingmo's hands and said, "The letter was given by your Excellency. Qiaoxiang's duty is to hand it over to Madam personally."
After that, she jumped out of the carriage and said: "My lord asked me to accompany my wife to Shuzhou to seek refuge with relatives and friends, but I still told her that everything should be done according to my wife's wishes. The carriage driver will send my wife to Shuzhou and then return to the capital."
, if Madam doesn’t want to see Qiaoxiang, she can send me back to Beijing when she gets to Shuzhou.”
Lin Jingmo had no intention of replying, and Qiao Xiang didn't say anything more.
In Qiaoxiang's view, Lin Jingmo was in a state of good fortune and did not know how to be blessed. Shang Shixu was obviously so kind to her, but she was always good and bad, and killed Shang Shixu more than once.
Moreover, although Qiaoxiang is considered to be Lin Jingmo's closest maid, she actually doesn't spend much time with Lin Jingmo. If Shang Shixu had not asked her to follow him, she would not have chosen Lin Jingmo.
Lin Jingmo leaned on the carriage and did not open the letter after all. Instead, he stuffed it into his baggage: Send me to Shuzhou? What does this mean? My revenge has not been avenged, how can I just leave it like this?
What about returning to your hometown?
Lin Jingmo was about to stand up, but as soon as he exerted force, the pain on his body became heartbreaking.
She frowned in pain and held on to the carriage window.
Qiaoxiang walked into the carriage with a medicine bowl. She placed the tray with food next to her and said, "Madam, you'd better eat something and drink the medicine. Otherwise, how can you get better quickly?" p>
Lin Jingmo nodded and said, "Thank you."
She picked up the dry biscuit next to her and took a few big bites, thinking to herself: She must live well. Only if she survives can she seek revenge from Shang Shixu, Chen Mianzheng and the others. Her father, sister, and mother Li, they all cannot die in vain!
I must find evidence and bring them to justice!
Then he took a few bites of the pancake and served it with tea. After finishing the meal, he picked up the medicine bowl and drank the medicine soup in one gulp, and then handed the empty bowl to Qiaoxiang.
Qiaoxiang calmly packed her things.
Just as she was about to get off the car, Lin Jingmo suddenly asked: "Qiaoxiang, please ask the carriage driver to come to the window to talk."
Qiaoxiang nodded, and after a while, the carriage driver asked outside the window: "What are your orders, madam?"
Lin Jingmo said through the curtain: "It's a long way to Shuzhou, and I was injured again, so it's unavoidable that it's bumpy. Shuzhou is my hometown. According to the old calendar, it might take less than a month and more than twenty days to get there.
How about I show you a shortcut? In this way, we can reach Shuzhou in more than ten days!"
The coachman was stunned for a moment, then replied: "Everything is done according to Madam's instructions. Your Excellency gave you instructions when we left. Everything should be done as Madam has told us."
Lin Jingmo was a little surprised when he heard this: Since Shang Shixu wanted to send him away, why did he ask them to listen to me in everything? Wasn't he afraid that I would not go to Shuzhou, but somewhere else or return to the capital? Lin Jingmo did not make any further guesses, but continued to say to the carriage driver: "How about we change the route to Chenzhou?"
"Chenzhou?" The coachman was stunned for a moment and said, "If we go from Chenzhou to Shuzhou, we will save a lot of money."
Lin Jingmo said: "If I remember correctly, when I was a child, the carriage would go to Chenzhou first and then to Shuzhou!"
"Is this really true?" The coachman said doubtfully, "In that case, just follow the lady's instructions!"
How did the coachman know that Chenzhou was the fiefdom of King Zhao Qi Xuanyi? If they changed route to Chenzhou, on the one hand, Lin Jingmo could slowly recover from his injuries along the way. She estimated that she would be able to stand up alone when they arrived in Chenzhou. On the other hand,
Since it is clearly recorded in Shang Shixue's account books that the destination of all benefits is King Zhao, then why not go directly to King Zhao's Mansion to find evidence?
……
Shang Shixu was lying on the bed wearing a white coat. He was stabbed in the chest by Lin Jingmo again. He has been injured in the past six months, and now he needs to take good care of himself.
Suddenly he looked up and saw a carrier pigeon flying in outside the window. Shang Shixu sat up with difficulty. The severe pain made him immediately cover the wound with his hand. The carrier pigeon flew to the head of his bed, and he took the letter from under the carrier pigeon's feet.
, this is the letter sent back by Qiaoxiang, who left early today.
It is not easy to make up his mind to let her go, but instead of letting Lin Jingmo stay by his side full of hatred, it is better to let her go free and stop entangled, but when Lin Jingmo is about to send away this morning
, he still told Qiao Xiang that he would send letters to him via carrier pigeon every day to let him know Lin Jingmo’s current situation.
He unfolded the letter and looked at the news that Qiaoxiang said that Lin Jingmo had no problem eating and drinking, and that she also started taking medicine. Shang Shixu couldn't help but smile slowly. As long as Lin Jingmo is fine,
That's enough.
Although I don’t know when we will meet again, or whether we will never meet again from now on, as long as I have the news that you are alive and well, it is enough.
