MTL - The Fugitive White Moonlight of a Powerful Minister-Chapter 153 And again... girl?
It didn't take long for Wen Ning to make this decision.
There is no Shi Ying in the formula, so there are surprises, confusions, and disappointments, but her first reaction is... what about the eldest brother and sister-in-law? !
Before they set off, she deliberately stuffed a few packs of Shi Ying into their carriage carrying medicinal materials, thinking that when Shi Ying was robbed, they would have enough for themselves.
But there is no Shi Ying in the prescription of this life. Not to mention that she has done so much useless work. According to the current situation, the price of medicine is already rising. She is not sure whether someone will drive up the price of a certain medicinal material like in her previous life, resulting in the shortage of medicinal materials, poor prescription effects, and rapid epidemics. spread.
Hoarding Shiying failed, she didn't have the ability to save so many lives, but her own eldest brother and sister-in-law, she can't just ignore death, right? !
Thinking that Wen Lan and He Luan might want to wrap their bodies in straw, and there would be no trace of a fire, she simply couldn't sit still.
After all, the medicinal materials in the prescription, her pharmacy is very full. When she brings the medicinal materials from the capital to Lingnan, it will probably be the peak of the epidemic, and maybe it can save the life of the eldest brother and sister-in-law!
As for how to get on the road, it is even more difficult for her.
She planned so many escapes in her previous life, and the farthest escape was to Yanmen Pass. Now that she has a lot of money in her hands, is it still difficult to beat her?
Only this time she no longer brought Linglan.
She also knows that in the eyes of all the family members, she is still the lady of the family who does not go out of the door and does not go out. The farthest place she has been to is the Jiangnan last time, and she is still with Pei You. If she expresses her thoughts, They will not agree.
She was worried about handing over those medicinal materials to others.
At the peak of the epidemic, medicinal materials are human life, worth more than gold. If the transporter knew that he was transporting a whole load of gold, could An Neng deliver those life-saving medicinal materials to Wen Lan He Luan as she wished?
So she called Duan Rushuang.
Duan Rushuang used to trust her, and never asked her to do anything. Linglan listened to her even more. She told the two to go out for a few days to deal with some things, and asked them to help cover, Duan Rushuang pretended to be her, and stayed in Xiangti Garden, while she wore Duan Rushuang's clothes and pretended to be her who slipped out through the back door.
That silly girl Linglan thought she couldn't hold back and went out to find Pei You, so she immediately agreed with twinkling eyes.
Wen Tingchun never came to Xiangti Garden easily, as long as Duan Rushuang didn't go out and went to bed early, it was not easy to be found.
Wen Qi would go back to see her once in five or six days, but by then she had already gone far, and they couldn't stop them even if they wanted to.
Wen Ning never thought that the experience of escaping from Pei You in her previous life would be used by her again.
Just sneaking out of Wen's mansion is much easier than sneaking out of Pei You's yard back then.
She calculated the time, distracted the attention of the backyard boy, and went out wearing Duan Rushuang's clothes smoothly;
She knew very well where there was a place to buy a carriage on Chang'an Avenue. She bought one first, filled it with the medicinal materials needed in the warehouse, and then changed into men's clothing. two chariots with people;
After finishing these, she went to the Escort Bureau and hired a dozen guards alone. The journey is long and the epidemic is raging. The journey to the south must not be peaceful. Although I heard that there are not many people who are willing to go to Lingnan, but with a lot of money, at least ten people are gathered together.
Of course, Wen Ning also bought some clothes and food for herself. She has a lot of experience in these, so it goes without saying.
In just one afternoon, she made thorough preparations for this event that ordinary people would never dare to think about, and left the capital before closing the city gate.
The carriage galloped all the way to the southwest.
She hired six coachmen to drive two carriages, one for people and one for medicine. The six people took turns to rest, without stopping all the way.
Those ten bodyguards came from the Escort Bureau, and they were used to escorting the darts overnight, so they only changed horses at the post station every day, took a short rest and continued on their way.
On the sixth day, we arrived at the boundary of Yizhou.
"When will the spices fail to ship? Mr. Wen is in such a hurry to go home at this time, isn't there a little girl waiting at home?"
Wen Ning is sociable, and has been acquainted with the accompanying grooms and guards for a long time. He would occasionally say a few words and make a few jokes when resting at the post station.
She did not say that the carriage contained medicinal materials, but only said that she was in the spice business, and a batch of goods was eager to be shipped home.
"Where did Xiaojiaoniang come from? Brother Hu might as well introduce one to me then."
Brother Hu happened to be from Lingnan, when she went to the Escort to hire someone, he was the first to respond.
Wen Ning responded to him with a smile.
"Speaking of which, Mr. Wen, have you ever heard of the most famous play in our capital?" Another guard interjected.
"The most famous play in Beijing? Which one?"
Is there any play that she hasn't heard of?
"Mr. Wen's play with Miss You!" The man said cheerfully, "Let Brother Hu introduce you to Miss You!"
Wen Ning: "..."
How can I eat melons on my own head wherever I eat...
"No problem! When we get to Lingnan, let him be left with girls and girls, and introduce whichever Mr. Wen likes!"
"You don't need to ask, of course Mr. Wen is a girl who loves you hahaha!"
Wen Ning: "..."
I can't talk anymore today.
Returning to the carriage, he hurried on his way again. Entering Yizhou means entering the southwest boundary.
Dayin's southwestern part is mountainous, and the road is winding, shuttling between the mountains, obviously not as easy as before. And after entering the southwest, I really saw the refugees.
Wen Ning raised her heart, firstly she was worried about the extent of the epidemic in the Southwest, and secondly she felt that those refugees were pitiful, but there was nothing they could do.
Occasionally riots can be seen. Although her carriage was eye-catching, including the coachman, there were sixteen strong men in front and behind, none of them dared to come forward to cause trouble. Wen Ning was also afraid of causing trouble, so she drove fast all the way, and the rest time at the post station was shorter than before.
After traveling for nine days, I finally left Yizhou and entered the border of Lingnan.
I don't want to enter Lingnan, the terrain is more winding and steep. Moreover, this season is the rainy season in Lingnan, and it rains heavily from time to time, making it very inconvenient for carriages to drive.
In addition, there are really many snakes, insects, rats and ants in Lingnan.
On the first day of entering Lingnan, the back of Wen Ning's white and tender hands was bitten by mosquitoes in the early summer and swelled into two horrible bumps. If he was in Beijing, he would have to go to a doctor to have a look, but he was driving all the way, and he didn't know the epidemic situation in other towns in Lingnan, so he didn't dare to enter the city rashly.
Fortunately, that big brother Hu is very experienced. He got off his horse and went to the forest to pick a few pieces of weeds and applied them on his hands. The swelling was not so terrible the next day.
Wen Lan and He Luan were in Wuxi, the most affected area in Lingnan. After entering Lingnan, they would continue to walk southwest for a few days.
It was another heavy rain today, and the two carriages fell into a puddle in the mountains at the same time.
The carriage that Wen Ning was riding in was alright. Three or five people pushed it out of the puddle. The carriage full of medicinal herbs was probably because it was too heavy, and the puddle was deep. Several martial arts practitioners took turns to push it. None moved.
On a rainy day, Wen Ning was so anxious that she didn't know whether it was sweat or rain, and she wished she could get rid of her umbrella and go to have a try.
During this journey, she didn't enter the town, only listened occasionally at the post station, and she knew that things were as she expected. In just half a month, the price of the medicinal materials on the prescription had skyrocketed, and even the medicinal materials in some epidemic areas had long been exhausted. .
Now her medicinal materials can not only save elder brothers and sisters-in-law, they must not be delayed here.
"Mr. Wen, the rain is too heavy, there is a town ahead, why don't I take you to the inn in the town to rest first?" A guard suggested.
"No need." With the sound of rain, Wen Ning almost yelled, "I'll be with everyone."
Actually, how could she feel at ease to throw so many medicinal materials here and go first?
She was still very worried, in case the carriage overturned...
"Brother Hu, be careful! Do not soak spices in water!"
Probably because of this, everyone dared not try their best, so that the situation fell into a stalemate.
"Mr. Wen, back off a bit, let's do it again!" Except for Wen Ning, no one in the rain curtain was holding an umbrella. Brother Hu waved his hands and called for someone to come over, "Zhao San, you are in the upper left corner, Li Liu, You are in the lower right corner!"
This time seven people were involved, Wen Ning took a few steps back, and then heard a few people work together to say "one, two, three"——
Woke up!
Wen Ning was so happy that she was about to jump up.
At this moment, behind the gurgling rain, there was a rush of horseshoes.
The mountain road is already narrow, it sounds like a lot of people came. Brother Hu hurriedly asked everyone to lead the horses and pull the carts aside to make way.
Wen Ning was also a little dazed for a moment, thinking of bandits and horse thieves who are most likely to appear in the mountains and forests in those stories, raised her umbrella slightly, and looked ahead through the rain curtain.
A team of at least 30 people, all sweaty horses, such a heavy rain, did not affect their speed at all. The leader was in a black riding uniform, with black hair like brocade, and even in the rain, he was flying backwards due to his excessive speed.
The speed was too fast, everyone couldn't help but took a few steps back, and so did Wen Ning.
It was raining too much, and it was impossible to see who was coming. He could only see that the other party seemed to be on his way. If he didn't retreat, he was afraid of accidentally injuring him.
Wen Ning watched, the leader seemed to notice them, and then yanked the reins.
As soon as he pulled the reins, the thirty or so people behind him also pulled the reins. In the rainy mountains and forests, horses neighed everywhere.
Although the horse is slow, it is still moving forward.
Wen Ning didn't know if it was her own illusion, but she always felt that the person in charge seemed to be... staring at her?
Aimed at them?
Has the medicinal material been discovered?
She took a few steps back subconsciously, and she was about to lean against the rock.
No, why does this person's figure look so familiar?
Wen Ning had to wipe off the rain that hit her eyelids. Not only does Lingnan have a lot of rain, but when it rains in the mountains and forests, there will be thick or thin mist.
At this moment, the man's horse had completely slowed down, and he was coming towards them step by step.
Through the fog and the rain curtain, Wen Ning finally saw the face of the person coming.
The clothes on his body were completely soaked, and the black hair that had just flown was already attached to his body. It was a simple bun without a crown, and a few strands of hair were sticking wetly to his cheeks.
He had just stopped from his fast walk, his chest was still rising and falling slightly, the corners of his lips were tightly pressed, his eyes were usually indifferent, but he stared at her non-stop, as if he wanted to nail her to the spot generally.
Wen Ning blinked, and then blinked again in disbelief.
again…
Again... girl?
