Splendid Abandoned Wife

Chapter 523

Zhiruo and his party were not a large team. Zhiruo brought Ru Chun, Ru Dong, Qiang Bo, and Mo Wang. The four brothers and sisters Mingze each brought a servant/maid, plus eight guards selected by Mo Wang. By the way, there were also Liang Dashan who happened to be traveling with them and Bai Xue who was inseparable from Xiao Xuan'er.

Neither of the Mingze brothers wanted to ride in the carriage, so Zhiruo followed them. Anyway, the two younger brothers, as well as Shi Xiaofeng and Nansheng who were accompanying them, were all very good at riding. In the past six months, they almost all traveled on horseback.

There are five carriages in total, one for Zhiruo, one for Zhihui Zhixuan, one for Liu Dianli from Qiangbo Tongzhifu Yamen, one for pulling luggage, and a small carriage for spare.

Liu Dian's official name is Liu Daqiang. He is a cousin of Mrs. Lin and is in charge of the ceremonial room of the Luocheng magistrate's office.Originally, errands such as escorting Zhiruo sister and brother to Beijing were usually led by the prison officer or military officer, but who asked Liu Dianli to be the brother-in-law of the prefect? ​​Liu Dianli was asked to do so for a random reason. The official entered the capital with six soldiers drawn from the barracks and execution room.It is said that even those soldiers have their own connections and backgrounds, otherwise how could they get such a good job?
Sure enough, on the first day on the road, these six people were all happy. One of the soldiers who spent some money to get this job secretly shouted in his heart, "It's worth it!".

Could it be worth it?We drank the best iced green tea and milk tea, and ate some crystal cakes and bread as snacks. We didn’t rush out at night. We stayed at the inn in a herringbone room with ventilation windows for three people. They were the same as Meizhuang’s own guards, not They used to stay in six-person rooms or even Datong bungalows when traveling.If there weren't enough rooms in the inn, Uncle Qiang would have let the two of them share a room.

Liu Dianli pretended to be reluctant to live in a single room at first, saying that the expenses for the seven of them would be borne by the prefect's Yamen, and two four-person rooms would be enough.How could Uncle Qiang be so willing?It’s just that the eldest girl has already told me that Meizhuang will bear the food and accommodation on the way. It’s very hard to travel during the day, so how can they not sleep well at night?
Uncle Qiang has never been stingy when it comes to appearances, and he doesn't want to leave any room for criticism in these trivial matters.The most common thing the eldest girl in his family says is: Nothing that money can solve is nothing!

As long as these seven people are safe and sound, not being bribed and used by anyone, and not doing anything to murder Meizhuang, it really won't matter if they eat well, drink well, and live comfortably along the way.When Shunshun Dangdang arrived in the capital, he prepared a red envelope for each of them. The girl said it was called Ping An Red Envelope.

Of course, if there are those blind people, Meizhuang will not be easy to bully.

Needless to say, Uncle Qiang was really not worried for nothing. Someone really wanted to take advantage of these soldiers, but the time they knew the news was too short, and the time for Prefect Lin to select the candidates was too late, and there was no time to make arrangements.The six people finally selected, as well as Liu Dianli, were personally appointed by Magistrate Lin, and he also specifically asked the master to educate them about the current situation in Beijing and the influence of the Yin family in the military.

Magistrate Lin is a smart man. After the incident of capturing bandits at night and the recent assassination of the young princess, he has a good idea of ​​Meizhuang's protection ability, although he has not studied it in detail. What's more, the emperor is very concerned about the Yin Zhiruo sister and brother's visit to Beijing this time. Anyone with a discerning eye can clearly see the importance attached to attending a palace banquet.If anything happens on the way to Beijing, the entire prefect's yamen headed by him will be angered by the emperor.Therefore, if anyone tries to kill these soldiers with a knife, no matter whether he succeeds or not, he will not only become an enemy of Meizhuang, but also become an enemy of Lin Tingwei!
Magistrate Lin personally filtered the candidates, and also personally warned and admonished them. Even if someone was contacted, no one dared to risk being confiscated, exiled or even beheaded, let alone someone who had not had time to make arrangements.

The journey was smooth, but the journey was leisurely and comfortable. Liang Dashan, who was busy with the escort business, couldn't help but speed up the journey first.

In the first few days, the four Mingze brothers were still a little excited. As they got closer to the capital, for some reason, the four brothers and sisters gradually became uneasy and anxious.The two young men, Lang and Zhihui, were fine. They were just silent and didn't like to talk. They frowned and didn't know what they were thinking.The youngest, Zhixuan, became seriously ill. She loved Zhiruo more and more and refused to leave. She even started to have nightmares again at night.Along with this, Bai Xue also became languid and stopped racing with the horse. Instead, he followed Xuan'er and stayed at Zhiruo's feet.

Zhiruo shook his head secretly. In one day, his father, mother, and aunt were all gone, and he saw his father fall down like a hedgehog. The shadow in the hearts of his younger brothers and sisters will probably never be eliminated for the rest of their lives.It was okay to be in Luo City, but now that they were getting closer to the capital, their insecurities began to rebound.

However, there is nothing they can do about it. It is a stage that they must go through in their growth process.What she needed to say and what she could analyze, she told them in detail before leaving Luo City.For the rest, they can only wait for them to work hard to dilute the fear and anxiety in their hearts before they can live a normal life.Escape is not a long-term solution. You can't never return to Beijing, right?
Zhiruo didn't deliberately go to comfort them, including the youngest Xuan'er.She didn't seem to notice anything unusual about them, and she did whatever she was supposed to do. Even though Zhixuanlai looked aggrieved and pitiful beside her, she still needed to talk about things, read and rest when she needed to.

She believed that her siblings could overcome the hurdle in their hearts, because whether it was to avenge her father or to revitalize her grandfather and father's Yin family, it required the faith of each of her siblings, especially the two Mingze brothers. and effort.Forever hiding in their shells, afraid to face the source of pain, what else can they do?How about revenge?
Fortunately, as expected, the older three returned to normal within two days.The most squeamish Xiao Xuan'er, although not as lively and relaxed as she was in Meizhuang, gradually began to smile again. Sometimes she would compete with Minghui in Qinggong, or like a little magpie, fly from Mo Wang's shoulder to Minghui's horse. On his back, he flew to Mingze's shoulder, and then with a swish, he flew to the front of Zhiruo's carriage, causing Bai Xue to follow him and run wildly..., which made the six martial arts soldiers from the prefecture's Yamen all praise him, and even As expected, the little girl secretly was indeed taught by the old man Banshan himself, and she deserves to be the only descendant of Fairy Lingbo.

It was known to the whole world that Minghui was a close disciple of Old Man Banshan. Because of Juxiang’s assassination of the young princess, the news that Zhixuan was the only inheritor of Fairy Lingbo’s peerless Qinggong had been known to more and more people, so Zhiruo no longer hid it. Tucked in, Yaomei can relax while practicing kung fu, killing two birds with one stone.

Near noon on the ninth day, the group arrived safely at the Yongding Gate on the south wall of the capital.As soon as they entered the city gate, Xiao Xuan'er, who was looking out of the car window, cheered, while on the other side, Ming Hui, who was looking around on horseback, suddenly frowned.
