Chapter 159: Smug Yu Xiaozhi (2 in 1)
After setting off, Wen Jiuxiao realized that he had underestimated. There were a total of one hundred vehicles, and Yu Zhi's convoy had a total of one hundred vehicles. The drivers were all young and strong, and all of them were burly. It's a bodyguard.
As soon as I asked, it was indeed a member of the Escort Bureau. There are three **** agencies in Ancheng, and most of the escorts are here.
If you spend so much money to hire so many escorts, if you only want to bring some souvenirs, it must be a loss. Considering that woman's money-loving temperament, it is impossible to think about it. There must be something he doesn't know about.
Wen Jiuxiao, who was riding on a horse, turned his head to look around. Yu Zhi's carriage was submerged in the crowd, and he couldn't see it at all.
"I should be thirsty after a long time. I'll make a pot of tea, and you bring it to her." Wen Jiuxiao squinted slightly and ordered to Qingfeng.
"Hey, let's go now, little one." Qingfeng was also riding a horse, and his face collapsed when he turned around.
He delivered tea again. In just one hour, he delivered tea to Ms. Yu three times. The third master was in a bad mood, but Ms. Yu didn't make things difficult for him, she just asked him, "Why is your third master so crazy?"
How would Qingfeng know? Even if he knew, would he dare to say it? I can only pretend to be stupid and laugh.
Qingfeng felt that it was too difficult for him, thinking that he was still far away from the capital, this way...will he still be able to return home alive?
Yu Zhi looked at the tea brought by Qingfeng, and was almost defeated by Wen Jiuxiao. After all, she, a little salty fish, was still affected. Wen Jiuxiao, a narrow-minded...
Yu Zhi exhaled slowly, and shouted: "Pomegranate, go and see Miss Muqing, and bring this pot of tea to her by the way, so that she can quench her thirst too."
As soon as the words fell, Qingfeng's pitiful voice from outside rang out, "No way! Miss Yu, this tea was brewed by the third master himself. The third master has never brewed tea for anyone since he was so old. One. You, don't disappoint the third master's wishes. "
Is this still her honor? Can I not?
Yu Zhi really wanted to slap the pot of tea on Wen Jiuxiao's face, but then she thought about her motorcade and the things pulled on it, and suddenly lost her confidence.
"Okay, got it." Yu Zhi said weakly, lying on the small table, looking at the pot of tea, feeling worried.
She really can't drink anymore. She wants to go to the toilet frequently. After drinking so much tea, can she fall asleep at night?
No, I have to find someone to share it for her.
Yu Zhi's eyes fell on Shiliu's face, Shiliu waved her hands in fright, "Master, I can't drink anymore. It's almost noon, there are so many people in the motorcade, and Lianwu may not be able to handle it alone, so my servant will help her." .”
Quickly got out of the carriage and ran very fast. I didn't know it before, so I drank it after drinking it, but now I know that the adults brewed the tea for my host, how could she dare to drink it? And she had already drank a full stomach of tea, and she couldn't drink any more.
Pomegranate decided that she would stay in the back all day today and not come to the front.
Yu Zhi just watched Pomegranate run away. This heartless person treats her so well in vain, even refusing to drink some tea for her. What can such a maid expect from her?
Pomegranate ran away, and there was still the boy in the car. Yu Zhi's eyes fell on the boy, and he took a long time to look away.
It's too small to harm.
Then...be fat!
Dogs should be able to drink tea, right? Whether it can or not, let's drink it first, the big deal is that I can't sleep at night. It's okay if you can't sleep, it happens to be on vigil.
Yu Zhi looked at the big dog with gentle eyes, "Big fat, are you hot? Are you thirsty? Come, drink a cup of tea to quench your thirst."
She poured a cup of tea for the big dog. The big dog stuck out its long tongue and licked the tea in the cup clean with Yu Zhi's hand.
"Isn't one cup not enough? Come, have another cup." Yu Zhi touched the dog's head and poured another cup.
Just like this, one cup left and one cup right, and soon the whole pot of tea went into the dog's belly, Yu Zhi rubbed it happily, "Big fat, you really are a good dog."
The little boy was still jealous, "Mom, what about me? What about me?" imitating a big dog, holding up two little paws, sticking out his tongue, panting.
Yu Zhi patted his head twice perfunctorily, "You are also a dog."
Yu Zhi handed out the empty teapot, "It's finished, here you are." With Big Fatty here, she no longer has to worry about Wen Jiuxiao's narrow-mindedness.
Qingfeng was right next to the car, and could hear the commotion inside clearly. When he got to the third master, he naturally... dared not say a word. Tell the third master about Miss Yu? Did he think his life was too long?
It's uneasy to hide it. Once the Dongchuang incident is revealed and the third master knows that the tea has gone into the dog's belly, then he... Anyway, it's his fault for being a slave.
At noon, Wen Jiuxiao ordered to rest.
Returning to Beijing this time, apart from Yu Zhi’s more than 100 people, there are even more Wen Jiuxiao’s: the five hundred people given by the emperor, escorted dozens of criminals, and the Northeast Army sent another fifty elite escorts, Including Wen Jiuxiao's own staff, there are seven or eight hundred people in total.
There are so many people, wearing leather armor and holding weapons in their hands. In front of them are young generals riding tall horses with quiver on their backs, and behind them are all strong young and strong.
The clothes of the prisoners in the prison car are bright and silk. This must have been copied from some dignitary. Look at the direction of the road. This is escorted to Beijing for trial?
Such a group of people walked on the road with a solemn and solemn attitude, and no one could avoid them wherever they went. Those bandits and bandits, as long as they have eyes, they all hide away, and no one dares to make a move.
As for the robbery of the prison car, the possibility is not high, because the important criminals such as King Zhenbei have already been escorted back to Beijing by the fifth prince, and the rest are just women, children and unimportant small fish.
However, things are unpredictable, after all, there are four grandsons of King Zhenbei among these people. Qin Hui also has three good friends. The King of Zhenbei is also a hero. Maybe someone who has been favored by him wants to save a drop of blood for him and risk his life to save others.
Therefore, Wen Jiuxiao was very cautious. Six people were arranged beside each prison car. Even if they were resting, they were guarded in shifts.
Because it was the first day, everyone had dry food in their hands, so they didn't bury the pot for cooking. Instead, they ate some dry food and drank some water, and then they dealt with the midday meal and set aside time to rest. That's a long way to go.
Yu Zhi didn't eat dry food, she was well prepared, and in case the firewood could not be found on the road, she pulled a cart full of firewood. There is also water, and several large buckets have been pulled. Food, dried vegetables, bacon, etc. were loaded into several carts.
After all, she doesn’t have a few people now, there are only a hundred strong men helping her to transport things, these are only a day or two, and they can be replenished at any time when passing through towns on the road.
Wen Jiuxiaoxuan’s station is not bad, it’s a flat land with a small river beside it. The water Yu Zhi brought hadn't been used yet, so naturally he wouldn't use the river water.
The capable Pomegranate and Lianwu found a few stones and set up two pots, one for boiling water and the other for cooking.
What I made was noodle soup with fish bumps, and the little boy called for what he wanted to eat. Yu Zhi is an old mother who loves her son, so she satisfied him.
Yu Zhi's craftsmanship is good, coupled with complete condiments, the fragrance wafts throughout the camp. The most uncertain youngsters in Mujiazhai followed the scent and looked here. If Muqing hadn't suppressed it, they would have gone to beg for food.
"That's what Boss Yu's family made for Zhou Zhou. How old are you all? You still want to compete with a child for food, but it's really promising." Mu Qing yelled loudly with her hands on her hips.
The teenagers shook their heads and kept silent. After a while, someone whispered, "But, it's really delicious."
Mu Qing glared at him, "Hold it."
No wonder Grandma asked her to take them out for training. She was so stupid. They could be coaxed away with a little delicious food. When she thought about it, the responsibility on her shoulders became even heavier.
The bodyguards who were used to eating dry food smelled the aroma, and suddenly felt that the dry food in their hands was hard to swallow.
Even the officers and soldiers with strict military discipline, the Lord looked at them one after another, conveying meanings that only they themselves could understand.
As soon as Yu Zhi finished serving the meal, Wen Jiuxiao arrived, "What did you do?"
Yu Zhi just wanted to say that he didn't do it for you, but Shi Liu handed over the bowl of rice, then quickly filled another bowl, and hid away with Lian Wu to eat.
What can Yu Zhi do? You can't take his bowl away.
Aren't you mad at her? Don't eat her food if you have the ability, hum! Yu Zhi quietly rolled his eyes at him, and took the little boy to eat, out of sight and out of mind.
Wen Jiuxiao didn't care, wiped his mouth away after eating, and left a sentence, "It tastes good."
Yu Zhi looked at his back, thinking. The cannibal's mouth is short, he has already eaten her food, so he probably won't bring her tea anymore, right?
At this moment, Yu Zhi still doesn't know that his thoughts are too naive. Is Master Xiaowen's anger so easy to dissipate? Without knowing that she was still alive, he was able to write a marriage letter and put her under his own name. This terrible possessiveness was gone.
Wen Jiuxiao brewed the tea Yuzhi drank all the way to the capital, of course, this is a later story. Every time he thinks about it, Yu Zhi has nothing to love, and regrets being on his boat.
In the evening, they settled down at the inn. Thanks to Wen Jiuxiao's blessing, Yu Zhi was also assigned to a room, while Mu Qing and Pomegranate Wu shared a room. Some of the others lived in the courtyard, while others rested outside the station.
There are too many people, and the station can't be crowded at all.
After eating and taking a bath, Yu Zhi led the little boy out of the room with some snacks in his hand, and asked the people in the station about things with a smile. What's new in the local area, customs, customs, caravans, what kind of business do they do... It seems that they are chatting wildly, but in fact, Yu Zhi has already obtained the information she needs in the chat.
Wen Jiuxiao soon discovered that something was wrong with Yu Zhi. This woman likes to be lazy, but along the way, she didn't stop at the inn in every town she came to. Either she took the young man from Mujiazhai to see the world, or supplies. She always had reason.
Even if the big troops don't enter the town, she still has to take her convoy to resupply, and then catch up in a hurry, and she seems to be in a good mood.
This is too abnormal.
Wen Jiuxiao decided to figure out what was going on here.
On this day, Yu Zhi and his men had just sold the skins from Ancheng and the mung beans from the previous town for a good price, and were about to collect some local spices when they looked up and saw Wen Jiuxiao.
Her mind went blank suddenly, and the guilt of being caught flashed across her face. Wen Jiuxiao is so shrewd, she didn't expect to be able to hide it from him, but she was caught too quickly, right? She has only done business three times.
Wen Jiuxiao looked at Yu Zhi, "Isn't it a souvenir for His Highness and your father? Are they all sold?"
"Not all of them were sold, only 30 cars were sold." Yu Zhi subconsciously said, and realized something was wrong as soon as the words came out. But having said it all, what can I do?
Since Wen Jiuxiao knew about it, Yu Zhi simply didn’t hide it, “Ah, it’s a good time to be at home, but it’s difficult to go out for a while, and the poor family has a rich road. Didn’t I just want to earn money on the road?”
Being idle is also idle, walking along the way, buying and selling along the way, and doing things along the way, how wonderful!
Look, let him guess right? This woman is the most savvy when it comes to money, and she will never do anything that loses money.
Wen Jiuxiao's expression became even more indescribable, "How can I be short of your money?" Didn't he just give her 10,000 taels of silver a few days ago, which is enough for her to go back and forth to the capital?
Yu Zhi became more confident, "Relying on the mountain, the mountain will fall, relying on the water, the water will flow, and it is best to rely on yourself. If you have your mother, it is better to have it yourself. If you have it, it is better to have it."
It's not that she, Yu Xiaozhi, doesn't know how to make money, so why spend other people's money? It's hard to live with palms up!
Wen Jiuxiao's eyes were dark, "Are you reminding me to hand over my private room?"
Yu Zhi was startled, and quickly waved his hands, "That's not what I mean." After a pause, he added: "But you reminded me, since you have a private house, don't forget to hand it in after you get married. your."
Yu Zhi waved his hand boldly, go, pretend! Splurge before you get married!
Wen Jiuxiao...I really don't want to.
For the rest of the journey, I passed Minglu, and Yu Zhi became more unscrupulous. In order not to delay the trip, she always sent people to scout the way and inquired about the local prices. Direct Deal.
When he was short of manpower, he still borrowed people from Wen Jiuxiao. Of course, Yu Zhi did not borrow in vain. He paid for all the food and drink. If there was no wine, the meat was open to eat. So much so that every time Yu Zhi went to the front, the soldiers stood up straight, hoping to be picked by her.
One day, when they passed by a mountain, Yu Zhi kept looking back, and Wen Jiuxiao, who was riding behind the car, asked her, "What are you looking at?"
Yu Zhi blinked his eyes, pointed to the mountain behind him, and said softly: "There is..."
"A bandit? I haven't heard of it."
Yu Zhi glanced at him, "It's not a bandit, it's a killer. There should be a killer den in that mountain."
Wen Jiuxiao was surprised, "How did you know?" He was sure that she had never left alone, did she meet five years ago?
"I heard it!" Yu Zhi shrugged his shoulders. Seeing that he was puzzled, he said, "If you know how to listen, you should not only listen to what the government has to say, but you should also listen to what the people at the bottom have to say, and what people of all schools and classes say. The teahouse in the tea house, the helper in the post station, the lady who runs the food shop, the uncle who gets up early every day and goes out of the city to pour Yexiang... You can learn a lot of interesting things by listening to what they say."
This woman really knows a lot. She has grown so much in five years, or is she just so smart? Wen Jiuxiao was thoughtful, his eyes fell on her face.
Yu Zhi didn't notice it, his mind was still on that mountain.
"It is said that the killer has been nesting for 20 or 30 years. There must be a lot of gold, silver and jewelry. Third Master, or..." She leaned out and approached Wen Jiuxiao.
"Don't even think about it." Wen Jiuxiao's face darkened, and he reached out to push her back into the car. Did she think the journey was too smooth? It's uncomfortable not to make a fuss, right?
"Qingfeng, bring me the tea set." This woman is safest only when drinking tea.
Yu Zhi's expression changed when he heard the word tea, and he huddled in the car, "Third Master, just pretend I didn't say anything."
Sure enough, people are easy to get carried away, and Yu Zhi regretted it very much.
