Chapter 228: Sending off relatives and heading north to hope for peace
Li Yaoguang hurriedly took it and opened it. She couldn't understand the succinct words inside, but the most important thing was that she could clearly see the appointment of her uncle as the seventh-rank ambassador to the north and escort the grain and grass north to Pengzhou.
Li Yaoguang closed the appointment in his hand and his expression changed, "I'll go find Lu Er to find a solution."
As soon as the talent moved, he was stopped by Cheng Su, "Sister Guang, don't go, it's useless."
"Why? We need money..."
"Oh, silly girl, this is not about money. If it were just money, my uncle would be shameless and still want to lend you a piece or two. Unfortunately, it's not..."
In the previous encounter on the street, he did escape the Hou Mansion Ming Mucang, but because of this, he also completely angered the Hou Mansion. The recent encounter was the result of the other party's efforts, and because the commotion was too big at the time, Almost everyone knows that when the matter came before His Majesty, His Majesty approved it, and there was no change.
"Actually, that's a good thing. Anyway, now your uncle and I are a seventh-grade official, which is much bigger than the official we originally planned to buy. What else should I be dissatisfied with?"
"Uncle!" Li Yaoguang knew that her uncle was comforting himself and enjoying the hardships, so he couldn't help but persuade her, "You know the situation in the North now. If it goes well, how can the emperor recruit troops and provide food? That guy Shen Yue is so A big official, even with such a huge force, was in a hard fight. Hu Di was biting and biting like crazy. Pengcheng was no longer the stable Pengcheng it used to be. Here we go..."
"It's okay. Your uncle and I are going to escort the food and grass and not go to the front to participate in the battle. There is basically no big danger. Moreover, food and grass are the top priority, and the secrets are escorted by heavy troops. The north will definitely send troops to support, so there is no need to worry about comfort. And I have an old friendship with General Shen. He will protect my uncle no matter what. Don’t worry, my son.”
"But."
"Oh, don't worry. If you have this time, I might as well help my uncle prepare some delicious food, medicine and whatnot."
"Alas!", what else could she say? At this point, everything was a foregone conclusion, and there was no way to save it with human resources, so she could only do her best to prepare.
Li Yaoguang nodded heavily with a sad face. He didn't want her to look like this. Cheng Su was dissatisfied, so he nodded her frown and smiled.
"Well, thinking about it on the other hand, this is actually a good thing. The man has ambitions in all directions. Your uncle and I also want to make contributions. If we don't get manipulated by the Marquis Mansion, we will have a good life. Don't behave like this again. I don't want to do that this time either. You don’t want to hold me back by letting your aunt worry and blame you for covering up something for me. This is our secret. How about not letting your aunt worry about it?”
Listening to the laughter coming from the kitchen opposite, Li Yaoguang was helpless, "Okay, why not, but uncle, you will be gone for who knows how long, how can I keep it a secret?"
Cheng Suha laughed and said, "You don't need to worry about this. The people here have their own clever ideas."
"Okay, what else can I say? You have thought about everything and decided. What else can I do besides cooperate?"
"Haha, that's not what I said. My sister Guang is still very capable. Now she has a problem, and it has to be you."
"What's the matter?"
"Of course this is where your aunt and Brother Yang will go. I'm not afraid of going to the North this time. I'm just afraid that after leaving, the Hou Mansion will use filial piety to pressure your aunt. If they are forced to take her back to the house, you Uncle, all my efforts have been in vain. So, my dear uncle, I ask you to hide your aunt in a place where she can’t be found in the Hou’s Mansion, or in a place where the Hou’s Mansion doesn’t dare to move until I come back. Can this be done? ”
"Well...it's done!" Li Yaoguang decided to leave the matter to Cheng'en Duke's Mansion.
Her own small courtyard could not stop the Hou Mansion from forcibly retaining someone. Even though she was a close relative and her uncle was around, she had no reason to force someone to stay, unless her aunt divorced or her uncle passed away and her aunt became a widow. Home, bah bah bah, is unlucky!
Taking a step back, even so, Brother Yang has the right to take him back because Brother Yang's surname is Cheng.
Just in case, Li Yaoguang, who didn't want to squander favors again and again, suddenly thought of the thing that his elder brother Jimo gave him when they parted. He didn't know if it was useful.
It took three days to get to Jinling, which also included the days when Yu Hang was on the road to Jinling. Time was tight and there were many things to do. Before the next day, Li Yaoguang went to the door of Cheng'en Duke's mansion that night, asked to see Cheng'en Duke's wife, and presented him with a piece of ghost face. Yan Luoling only asked the Duke Cheng'en to take care of his aunt, mother and son for a while.
At first, she felt uneasy because she didn't know the specific value of this order. After all, she only knew that Qijitang's seal was precious, so this was a bit uncertain.
As a result, Mrs. Fang immediately smiled and narrowed her eyes when she saw the thing in her hand, and took it with both hands. She just didn't pat her chest and said that her aunt, mother and son could stay as long as they wanted, and the Cheng'en Palace would do their best to take care of her.
Li Yaoguang knew the weight of the token from the corners of Fang's lips that couldn't be pressed down, so she felt relieved.
After leaving Cheng'en Gong's Mansion, Li Yaoguang went straight to Jishi Hall to find Grandpa Wu, and asked the old man to buy a series of medicines of various colors that he had used well. As for Ji Mo's weird and weird medicines, Grandpa Wu didn't have them. The remaining evolved version of Li Yaoguang was in his hand. They are also all packaged, with directions for use and antidotes clearly marked, and each package is carefully packaged and stored properly to ensure that it is easily known as soon as you take it.
In addition, it was too late to make temporary chain armor. Li Yaoguang visited the city through Lu Erben the next day and bought an invulnerable soft armor at a high price from an old sorghum boy who had declined his honor. He went to the top embroidery house and gave it to My uncle bought two pairs of silk undergarments and undergarments, and a pair of lightweight but good defensive goggles. In addition to the two lightweight weapons sponsored by Lu Er, it was like a big box of things to pack up.
In order to prevent her aunt from suspecting, she did not dare to take these things home, so she had to put them in the Xinhai Pavilion first. After returning, she talked to her uncle about it, and Cheng Su instantly reached consummation.
Convinced that Zhenweihou Mansion could not recruit anyone from Chengen Mansion, Cheng Su was very satisfied with the arrangements for his children.
That day, Yu Meixue took her son and Brother Yi and stepped into the gate of Cheng'en Palace again. Li Yaoguang was even surprised. She didn't know how her uncle deceived her aunt, but seeing that her aunt and cousin completely trusted each other, , she was too embarrassed to expose it.
As promised, his aunt would come to visit them in two days. As he watched the three of them enter the house, Li Yaoguang went back to Xinhai Pavilion to get the box and cage, lighting up the contents and explaining everything to his uncle.
In addition, she also took out a letter containing 20% of Xinhai Pavilion's revenue during this period and handed it to her uncle, asking him to pass it on to Shen Yue. Naturally, she would not tell her uncle that the letter was all about her begging Shen Yue to take care of her family. Please, uncle.
No matter how much preparation he made, they would eventually part ways. He entrusted a box of things to Xue Xingluan Shan who insisted on going with him, took out a bag of gold leaves and forced them on his uncle, and told them, master and servant, to look for Uncle Dong again when they arrived in Jinling. He bought more medicines of various kinds for self-defense, and Cheng Su responded to them one by one with a dumbfounded look.
Brother and sister Li Yaoguang and Li Qifeng personally escorted Cheng Su's master and servant out of the city. They saw them go to Jinling to meet with the sergeants outside the city, and then saw them off all the way until they were outside the long pavilion ten miles north of the city. Cheng Su was not allowed to see them off again, so the two sides said goodbye. Li Yaoguang watched with worry. The close relative turned and left.
It wasn't until the figures of his uncle and Luan Shan disappeared in front of him that Li Qifeng patted Li Yaoguang's shoulder and whispered.
"Yaoguang, go back. Uncle Luanshan and the others followed the rear route with the grain transport troops. My uncle is also an escort officer and will be protected by the accompanying sergeants. They will be safe and sound. Don't worry too much."
Li Yaoguang said yes, how could he not be worried?
But the only thing she could do at the moment was to pray, hoping that everything would go well for her uncle and the others on their trip. They didn't ask for any achievements, but only for their safe return. Otherwise, she couldn't imagine what would happen to her uncle. , How can I explain it to my aunt who was kept in the dark?
