"Master, I received news from Da Sinong, asking me to wait in Yao'an City!"
In order to send his father to Yao'an City as soon as possible, Chu Ximo could go back to pick up Yan Shiqing, mother and son. During this period, it could be said that Chu Ximo was on the road day and night.
At this time, when he and others stopped to rest and reorganize, they heard Zhai's reply.
"Da Sinong has arrived in Yao'an City?"
"Return to the master, yes!"
When Chu Ximo heard this, he frowned, and for a moment he didn't understand what Bai Yifeng meant.
Previously, he asked someone to send a message to Bai Yifeng, asking him to take the herbs to Rongcheng. Why did he stay in Yao'an City and ask him to stay there too?
Could it be that something happened that he didn't know about?
Thinking of this, Chu Ximo glanced at his father, who had been in a coma for a long time, and said: "In that case, let's stop in Yao'an City. Send a message to Magistrate Jiang and ask him to wait there with his people."
"yes!"
Since it was not far from Yao'an City and he had to stay there, Chu Ximo simply stopped traveling day and night and stopped to rest when it was time to rest.
Time flew by, six days passed, and it was already mid-July. The weather began to get colder in the morning and evening, and the group of people arrived at Yao'an City.
Bai Yifeng had already met up with Jiang Yunye. When the two of them discussed it and learned that Ding Beirui and Qi Lie were also heading to Rongcheng, they decided to send the emperor to Jifeng Town.
As long as they are staggered and not in the same place, and Qi Lie and Ding Beirui don't move around, there shouldn't be any problems.
What's more, Shiqing has to return to Jifeng Town in the end, so it's appropriate.
However, the road must branch off in the end so that both sides cannot meet on the road.
After Chu Ximo discussed it with Bai Yifeng and Jiang Yunye, he arrived with Emperor Yongchang.
He first settled Emperor Yongchang in the postmaster, then went to look for him.
As soon as the three of them met in the courtyard of Yao'an City where Jiang Hongxuan was located, before they started talking, they heard the voice of Chu Yi coming from outside the door.
"Master, I have something important to report!"
"Come in, what's the matter?"
"Master, traces of Hongwu people were found in Rongcheng!"
Hearing this, Chu Ximo glanced at Bai Yifeng subconsciously, and saw that he also had a puzzled look on his face. Then he said in a deep voice: "A member of the Hongwu Kingdom? But what is the other party's background and how did he get here?"
"Back to the master, it seems that the two Hongwu people were invited here. As for who they are, we haven't found out yet."
When Chu Ximo heard this, he turned his eyes and suddenly thought of a possibility. He looked at Jiang Yunye and said, "Auntie and the Countess have already arrived?"
"I heard her say she was coming soon, but I didn't meet her on the way here."
Chu Yi spoke out: "My subordinates have received news that Mrs. Jiang San and the countess have arrived in Rongcheng."
"Continue to find out what is going on, and no matter who the Hongwu Kingdom is, we must control it. If necessary, take it down first!"
"yes!"
After Chu Ximo went out on the first day of the new year, Chu Ximo said with a solemn expression: "I'm afraid there are people in the capital who can't wait any longer. If they come for the countess, it's probably because of the weapons mentioned before. Of course, these are just my guesses.
The details need to be found out.”
Jiang Yunye and Bai Yifeng broke out in cold sweat behind them and said, "Something happened over at Ruanjiakeng. Now Ding Beirui and Qi Lie are coming to Rongcheng. After calculation, they are almost there. If so,
Those Hongwu people are not theirs, I'm afraid..."
Chu Ximo didn't know about this yet. After hearing this, he lowered his eyes and pondered for a long time, and said: "I sent someone to stop them immediately and asked them to go back to Jifeng Town. My father will place them in Rongcheng. Those two people
No matter who it is, kill it first. I will immediately write a letter and return to the capital to let the emperor pay attention to the movements of those people. As for Mr. Bai, something happened over there in Huaizhou, and I am afraid that you should go there.
I will ask my uncle to take people to transport the herbs sent back this time, and we will talk about it later when the time comes!"
After Chu Ximo finished speaking, without waiting for the two of them to say anything, he called for someone and gave a few instructions in a low voice. After the people left, he walked back and forth in the room several times, then looked at Jiang Yunye and said, "Uncle, tomorrow morning
, help transport the medicinal materials first. On my father's side, I will walk more slowly and personally escort him there."
Jiang Yunye knew what he meant. He asked him to deal with the matters in Rongcheng first and then let the emperor go. He nodded and agreed: "Okay!"
Bai Yifeng was still not sure what happened in Huaizhou and was waiting for Chu Ximo's answer, so he did not leave after Jiang Yunye left.
Chu Ximo then told what happened in Huaizhou, then took out an order and said: "For this military order, you can ask the commander of Huaizhou to mobilize 3,000 local elite soldiers. When you get there,
Don’t use it except as a last resort.” yyls
Bai Yifeng stretched out his hand to take the military order and nodded cautiously. Huaizhou was previously in charge of Prime Minister Shu Zuo's concubine. Who knows whether the commander would be on the same page as him, so it was better for him to be cautious when making arrangements.
After everyone left, Chu Ximo narrowed his eyes and expressed dissatisfaction with Ding Beirui and Qi Lie going to Rongcheng without permission.
If they had almost arrived at Rongcheng, those two people were from the Hongwu Kingdom and had ulterior motives. They might be able to recognize them.
He hoped that the two sides had not encountered each other before his people arrived to stop them.
Otherwise, things may develop out of control!
The capital of Hongwu Kingdom
After Chen Yining learned that Yan Shiqing was from Dachu, it wasn't long before she learned that Yang Lulan had followed the envoy to Dachu.
She was very envious of Yang Lulan's ability to leave at a moment's notice, and wanted to have her courage, but she didn't dare.
In the past six months, after Xia Siyu became the second prince's concubine, due to her ability to make waves and the second prince's love for her, no one in the capital was willing to be the second prince's concubine.
Now there is news from the good concubine in the palace that they are going to choose a concubine for the second prince, which makes her, who has reached the marriageable age, very distressed.
Unexpectedly, his father expressed disappointment that the prince had been away for half a year and there was no news from the front. He deliberately stood by the second prince's side and was gradually getting closer.
Although she is a lady and does not ask about the important affairs of the court, how can she really know nothing?
She had just woken up from her nap that day when she heard Wenxiu running over in a hurry and said softly: "Miss, something serious has happened. When I went to the latrine just now, I heard the nanny next to my wife said to Wenbi that the master wanted to put her in the hut.
The young lady was sent to the second prince's house, and she was asked to serve as a dowry for the young lady. He also said that the prince was destined to die this time, and the country was destined to belong to the second prince. Even if the young lady could not become a royal concubine and was just a concubine, she would be a concubine after the second prince ascended the throne.
, she is still a concubine after all. Let Wenbi be smarter when the time comes. Maybe she can be a common-room girl before the second prince ascends the throne, and she will be a talented person by then. "
