Yu Jun

Chapter 64 Farewell
The autumn wind is getting more and more chilling. Outside Kuanzhou City and along the Shuoshui River, it has turned yellow and decayed, and the tiles are covered with new frost, suddenly invading people.

The river gradually dries up, and the quicksand freezes hard. Instead, it becomes lively. Ship merchants who cannot use human mules start running back and forth, and the Qiang people also move frequently.

In the autumn of Kuanzhou, Zhang Gongfeng always had the illusion that it was already winter. In addition, the autumn grain had already been collected, and only when the water convoy was transported to Kyoto, he urged Mo Lingfeng to leave. From all walks of life, directly enter the third division of Kyoto, so that the emperor can hold power in his hands.

On September [-]th, just after Maoshi arrived, the stars were hidden and the moon was falling, but the sky was not yet clear, and it was getting darker and darker.

In Mo Mansion, which was silent in the dark night, lights were lit under the main porch, followed by stables and corner gates, spreading from outside the mansion to the mansion, laying lights high above the ground for the servants to rush about.

This is a rare and lively scene in Mo Mansion.

One by one, the boxes and cages were loaded onto the carriage, and I still wished that it was not enough, but the carriage could not be loaded indefinitely, so I had to give up.

Dozens of horses pulling the cart, loaded with luggage, coachman, little yellow gate, and maidservant, bear an unprecedented burden, take heavy steps, snort, white gas comes out of their noses, and complain to the front door, forming a long line , waiting for the master in the cold wind.

After a long time, the two boys opened the door.

Some dim lights came out, Mo Qianlan led Mo Lingfeng, without saying a word, Zhao Shiheng followed behind, because he had finished talking, his expression was very calm, the big yellow dog wagged its tail and followed, with a dog on its back. Face, took the opportunity to step on Zhang Gongsong next to him several times.

Nanny fell at the end and looked back frequently, very reluctant to part.

A group of people went down the stone steps, and when they reached the first carriage, Mo Qianlan squatted down, touched her hair bun, hugged Mo Lingfeng, and took her small body into her arms. It is like a knife twisting, meaning like frying.

He asked hoarsely, "Is it cold?"

Mo Lingfeng shook his head.

Zhang Gongfeng made an apologetic smile at the side: "Girl, please get in the carriage, the journey is long, and the cao team will be escorted by officers and soldiers, so it will be much safer."

Mo Lingfeng didn't move like a mountain, and Mo Qianlan refused to let go. Sometimes he was afraid that she would be cold, and sometimes he was afraid that she would be hungry. He went back and forth endlessly.

Zhang Gongfeng repeatedly urged unpopular people, Zhao Shiheng stepped forward and pulled Mo Qianlan to stand up: "It is not eternal, Jiedu envoy should not be so sad, the girl is young, make her sad."

He also told Mo Lingfeng: "Don't be naughty along the way, outside is no better than home."

Mo Qianlan let go of Mo Lingfeng, and kept stroking her shattered temple hair with both hands, and was shocked to find that she was still the age of the chief horn, with so many shattered hair that it couldn't be tied into a bun.

When I left home, I was in a state of anxiety and lived in fear. Ah Yao was so young, and I didn’t know how to feel sad in my heart. I didn’t dare to look at it anymore, for fear that I would personally go to hold the whip and bridle and drive, so I whispered: “Ah Yao, be patient. In some time, brother will pick you up."

Mo Lingfeng lowered his head and gave a "hmm", then turned and got into the carriage.

Seeing this, Zhang Gongfeng went to put the horse stool on himself, and helped Mo Lingfeng into the carriage, and the nurse also sat in, accompanying Mo Lingfeng.

Yin Bei was pulling Yin Nan and chattering, seeing this, he quickly let go of Yin Nan. Yin Nan sat in front of the cart boldly, grabbed the driver's whip, and swung it vigorously in the air.

With a "snap", the horsewhip made a crisp sound in the air. On the wide street outside Jiedushi's Mansion, the sound was crisp and straightforward, and there was another "snap", not like it was being whipped on a horse. , but on Mo Qianlan.

Little Jiaoer, he was the one who picked her up from the ground, raised her in her arms, and kept it in her heart. With Ah Yao gone, even if he could live ten thousand years, what would he do?
This kind of separation made him anxious, and he couldn't help taking a step forward. Zhao Shiheng's hand was firmly clasped on his arm, not allowing him to act rashly.

The carriage had gone far, and it was about to merge into the blue sky. At this moment, Mo Lingfeng suddenly opened the curtains, and stuck out his head. It was not enough, and even his thin shoulders were squeezed out. , the upper body leaned out of the carriage viciously, heaving up and down in the bumps, his face turned to Mo Qianlan as hard as he could, and he let out a heart-piercing roar: "Brother!"

"Be sure to come pick me up!"

"elder brother!"

Mo Qianlan endured and endured, biting his mouth full of blood, turned around and returned to the mansion, walked quickly into the study, and sat slumped.

Ah Yao left.

Mo Lingfeng left.

The envoys entrusted by Zhang met with the Cao team ten miles outside the south city of Kuanzhou. The Cao team escorted nearly a hundred Taiping vehicles. They had to go to Jeju first, take the official road to the southeast, and change the waterway from the pier when they approached Luoshui. , until Kyoto.

The Cao team transported troops stood on both sides of the Taiping chariot, with knives and guns everywhere, which was daunting. The grain road escort responsible for restraining the transported troops first went to the carriage to salute Zhang Gongfeng, said a few words, and set off again.

The Cao team walked in the front, the Imperial Mission walked in the middle, followed by the students rushing for the exam, and the team meandered for more than two miles.

Mo Lingfeng opened the curtain of the car, kept looking back, and turned back to the nanny after a while and said, "Grandma, Wu Jin is behind, and there is Wang Jingha."

The nanny also opened the curtain of the car and looked back, and saw that there were 80 to [-] candidates rushing for the exam behind them. Wu Jin was easy to identify, dressed in gray, but his skin was fairer, and he was very tall and straight, and there were people around him When talking to him, he responded with a slight smile, and occasionally raised his head to glance at the long line in front of him.

She turned her head and asked Mo Lefeng: "Who is Wang Jingha?"

"Wang Yunsheng's son, the one with the biggest mouth."

The grandma didn't know who Wang Zhizhou's son was, but she only knew that there were more than a dozen wealthy children in the exam team just now, all of them were riding horses with a servant, surrounded by a young man with their mouths open and closed, It is indeed not small.

The nanny thought to herself: "Zhizhou is also a high-ranking official, why did he give his son such a name?"

This team traveled day and night, and after ten days, they left Jia County and arrived at Jeju. The Cao team knew that there were many bandits at the intersection of Kuanzhou and Jeju, so they didn't want to stay here. It rained heavily.

The rain was surprisingly heavy, the dark clouds were wet and heavy, pressing directly on the top of the head, and the water flowed around like pillars, making it difficult to walk, trapping people and horses, so they had to stay at the Heshan Pavilion Station in Heshan County, Jeju.

Heshan County has a vast land, and a large posthouse was also built. There are 24 houses, where horses are fed and food is kept. The hall is divided into huts. After entering, it was not the case at all.

In the posthouse, the wood and stone materials are very rough. It rains heavily outside the house, but it rains lightly inside the house. Many places are densely packed with cobwebs and dust is everywhere.

The Hou people and the guards suddenly saw the large group of people and horses, and they were at a loss. They could only put the horses and carriages in the rain first, and the Cao team pushed the grain carts and put them in the warehouse. After complaining, they began to spread a second layer of oilcloth on the grain truck.

"Come help!" the grain road escort yelled at the students sheltering from the rain in the corridor, "Quick! Don't stand still!"

Not a single grain of grain should be wet.
