Concubine Hanhan's Concubine Gongdou

Chapter 389 Wait For Me Here
With his relatives close at hand, Lian Mu was very anxious.

He didn't know how his parents were, how his second and third brothers were doing, whether his mother's illness was getting better, and he was very worried after being away for many days.

On the eve before the announcement of the rankings, his eyelids twitched, fearing that something might happen at home, so he packed his bags early the next morning, prepared food for the journey, and went to the market to hire a carriage in a hurry. , and left Taiyuan Mansion in a hurry before saying goodbye to his friends.

The horse-drawn carriage hired in a hurry went wrong, and they left Taiyuan Mansion and left them behind. Fortunately, there was nothing wrong with them. Later, they met Aunt Wu and the others and accompanied them all the way to Beijing.

When the ox cart drove under an old tree, Lian Mu bid farewell to Wu Sheng and Uncle Wu and Aunt Wu, and agreed to visit again in the future.

Aunt Wu greeted him warmly, and when she and Uncle Wu had brewed vinegar, she would leave a vat of vinegar for him to pick up, Lian Mu smiled and agreed, and the two groups separated.

After watching Uncle Wu leave and Aunt Wu, Lian Mu continued walking with Wu Sheng.

The place he asked Uncle Wu to deliver was the nearest fork in the road where Aunt Wu's nephew lived. He was worried that they would not be able to find the way because they were unfamiliar with the place, so he pointed the way here, and it was still far from the courtyard where he lived.

Wu Sheng carried a burden on his back and said, "My lord, according to your instructions, I stuffed the car money into their quilt, so I think they won't lose it."

The burden he carried mainly consisted of dry food and a few pieces of clothes, which were not heavy.

Lian Mu responded, "Okay."

He carried a book basket on his back.

The book basket looks very heavy, with an oil-paper umbrella tied on the side, covered with a bamboo lid, which contains books, pens, ink, paper and inkstone, clothes, etc.

Wu Sheng said again: "My lord, why don't you let me carry the box on your body, I can carry it."

The book basket on the young master's back is much heavier than his. Although the young master is slender and taller than him by a head, but the young master's left foot was said to have been injured and was not connected properly. Walking is more strenuous than him.

Lian Mu smiled: "No need." Continue to drive forward.

When he was standing, he looked like an ordinary person, and when he was walking slowly, it was not so obvious, but when he was walking like this, his left foot was obviously limping, which always attracted some strange eyes.

He didn't care about this, and he didn't change his pace because of other people's eyes, and he walked as he wanted.

The two continued on their way, and when they came to a main road, three fast horses came running towards them. The riders on horseback were not dressed like ordinary people. The one in the lead had red lips and white teeth, and a white beardless face. There was a trace of hostility on his face, which showed that he was in a very bad mood. it is good.

The fast horse galloped past them, the man in front took a look at Lian Mu, and then passed by. Under the afterglow of the setting sun, red dust billowed up.

Lian Mu stopped and looked back, his eyes revealed a trace of solemnity, these people were not ordinary people, especially the one in front, who looked young, but had an imposing aura on his body and indifference in his eyes.

How could such a person come to Nancheng?
Thoughtful, he turned his head and continued to drive forward, but he was getting faster and faster, and Wu Sheng almost couldn't catch up with him.

Lian Mu became more and more anxious as he walked, seeing the horseshoe marks along the way, which completely coincided with their new direction, as if they came from their courtyard, his first thought was that his enemy had discovered him, and his heart jumped wildly.

As he walked, he calmly denied this possibility. If they were an enemy of their family, Cai Cai would not have passed him by ignoring him just now, and most people can't cultivate the temperament of a leader.

He couldn't guess why that person came, whether he came for them, and he could only feel relieved when he saw his parents.

When he finally got around the courtyard, he saw the same horseshoe prints on the ground. Lian Mu's eyes sank, he took off the book basket he was carrying and threw it on the ground. Before he could say anything more, he said to Wu Sheng: "Wait here for me .”

He limped and ran forward.

Wu Sheng and Lian Mu had a tacit understanding for a long time, knowing that their son had a special status, they didn't yell or ask, they quickly picked up the book basket on the ground, moved it to a secret corner, and waited anxiously.

The young master gave him the grace to reinvent him. He was originally a street vagrant, but was rescued by the young master and became the young master's book boy. The young master also taught him to read and write. If you have done him a great favor, let him risk his life to repay it, he will not hesitate.

It's just that he acted erratically, it was a waste of help, he didn't dare to make decisions on his own, and he could do whatever Young Master arranged for him.

On Lian Mu's side, when he was about to run to the yard, he turned around and walked through another alleyway to observe. He saw three horses tied under the tree in front of the courtyard where his family lived, and there were faint sounds in the courtyard.

There was his father's voice inside, and the voice was vaguely anxious.

His forehead was sweating, his eyes were calm, he analyzed the horses and the footprints on the ground, his heart suddenly relaxed, and he was falsely alarmed.

He suddenly raised it again, since he wasn't the one who came to arrest them, why was his father so anxious?
Could it be that something happened to my mother?

Thinking of this, he couldn't care less, and ran to the gate, which was unlocked.

As soon as he opened the door, he saw his second brother Lian Wanzhen squatting at the door, holding his head in his hands and looking very painful. When he saw the door opened, he turned around and saw him, and immediately got up and shouted: "Brother, come back!" Oh, my mother is not good!"

Lian Mu, or Lian Musu, his mind went blank...

Cao De rode a fast horse and hurried on the road.

Just now his subordinates came to report to him that the private soldiers raised by Xue's family had a clue.

For this reason, he had no choice but to leave shortly after seeing his sister, and he had already done what his sister had entrusted to him.

These days, in order to find out the whereabouts of the private soldiers raised by the Xue family, he left early and returned late, very busy.

Fortunately, he told his subordinates that if someone came to the Li family shop, they should report it to him in time, so that the news was not missed.

The news from my sister said that the benefactor had been found, but he was seriously ill in bed, and I asked several doctors to see him, but they were helpless. Now that his condition is critical, I hoped that he could help find someone with good medical skills.

After receiving the news, he immediately put aside what he was doing and went to the Imperial Medical Office to arrest Huang Zude, but he was not on duty today.

So he hurried to Huang's house, and the old man who guarded the door opened the door nimbly and said that the master's house was there, and the master and the young master were in the pharmacy, so he asked him to go in and look for it.

He drove straight into the pharmacy, and when he entered the door, what caught his eyes was the Huang family's ancestral motto hung in the middle of the room in huge fonts: Hanging the pot to help the world, life and death have fate.

He felt in his heart that the Huang family is really different. The first half of this family motto is the benevolence of a doctor who wants to snatch people from the hands of the king of hell, but the second half of the sentence is like saving if you can save it. Indifferently, the upper and lower sentences are really contradictory.
