Wei Mansion has returned to the days when there were only women.
Mrs. Guo either went to the Buddhist hall to pray every day, or asked Xu Ji to take Wei Zhi to her house and take care of her personally.
Liang Hui still didn't have a good look at the mother and son. Every day when she saw them in front of Mrs. Guo, she didn't raise her eyebrows.
Xu Ji has no temper. She never sits in front of Mrs. Guo and Liang Hui. Whoever's teacup is empty and the water is empty, and whoever sits uncomfortable needs to add money. She has already stepped forward before anyone opened her mouth. She is more thoughtful than a maidservant. Whatever Mrs. Guo says, she can talk to her obediently, always with a seven-pointed and three-pointed smile on her face, and her humility is just right.
In contrast, Liang Hui didn't speak much, and rarely participated in hot topics among women. Sometimes Mrs. Guo was happy holding Wei Zhizheng, but Liang Hui said she was tired, so she saluted and left.
"Princess is really stubborn, Mrs. Guo's face is not good-looking, and she completely ignores it." In private, the Zhou family couldn't help discussing.
"She is a princess." Zhu Shi said, "Even if Mrs. Guo is Gu Shi, she still had to salute when she saw her in the past."
"But now she is the second son's wife, and she still puts on airs like this, and I can't even talk to her." Mrs. Mao was enthusiastic, and said to me, "The elder sister-in-law and the princess have known each other since childhood, why don't you persuade me ?”
I smiled: "I am not very familiar with the princess, and she doesn't have much to say when she is with me."
"How long has it been since the princess's aunt came to persuade you last time?" Mrs. Zhu looked at me, and cast a glance at Mrs. Mao, "I'll wait until Mrs. Guo's affairs, I will get involved less."
These words hit the point, and the few people tacitly talked about it, and turned the topic elsewhere.
In fact, Liang Hui was not indifferent to me. I have known her for a long time, and she is Si Di, she often walks by my yard. She wisely didn't mention the imperial palace and the late emperor and empress dowager, and only talked to me about the old things in Chang'an. We have a lot of mutual acquaintances, and she also knows Ruochan.
"I heard that Chen Nujun is very famous in the feasting place?" Liang Hui said softly.
Although the words are tactful, of course I know what they mean.
"I don't know." I replied.
"I think how beautiful Chen Nujun was when Chen Gong was here." Liang Hui sighed, "If I were Chen Nujun, I would rather die than suffer such humiliation."
Hearing this, I looked at Liang Hui carefully, with a look of self-pity on my face.
"Everyone is lucky, if you want to survive, you have to obey." I looked at her and said kindly.
I don't know how much Liang Hui listened to these words. At that time, her eyes were a little surprised, but after a while she smiled wryly, and then she turned to it.
The affairs of the women in the house are trivial in my eyes, and what I really need to worry about is the business side.
At the end of July, Yanniantang's medicinal materials were almost exhausted. I met Li Shang in secret by going to a temple to worship God. Although he didn't want to give up Yanniantang, the situation was in front of him now, with the North and the South confronting each other, and the imperial court was keeping a strict eye on the passageway. Although it is a legitimate business, the risk of travel is unpredictable.
Li Shang negotiated with me to transfer the remaining goods to other pharmacies and close Yanniantang. The signboard and storefront are kept, anyway, the reputation has already been well-known, it is better to close it first and wait for the opportunity to reopen, than to be out of stock and make customers dissatisfied.
Not long after making up his mind, something big happened to Gong Yanggui.
In the past six months, although Yanniantang has not purchased any goods, Gong Yanggui's darts have not stopped. Those of his friends were originally Jiangyang thieves, and they were all people who licked blood on the tip of their knives for many years. Wei? I took a few jobs in Yongdu, almost once a month. The first few trips went smoothly, but this month, the group met Wu Kun's sergeant on the waterway. They came prepared, although the big men fought hard, but the other party was outnumbered. In the end, Ma Kui, the leader, was captured alive by the sergeant in order to cover the escape of the remaining brothers.
When this happened, Gong Yanggui was very anxious. He is very loyal, and he is about to set off to Huaiyang to rescue Ma Kui. Ruochan heard the news and rushed to stop him, but Gong Yanggui insisted on leaving. After the two had a big fight, Gong Yanggui still set out on the road.
"Madam, that Ma Kui is also a man. I heard that he was taken down after seventeen stab wounds." A Yuan said to me with a full face of admiration.
I can't help frowning. Although Gong Yanggui did this for the sake of his friends, it seems to me that he was a bit impulsive. Leaving aside whether his journey to Huaiyang alone is smooth, how should he be rescued when he arrives? Almost at the same time, I thought of Pei Qian. Gong Yanggui and him have known each other for a long time. Could it be that he wants to open up the joint through Pei Qian

Just as I was thinking about this, Ruochan sent a message saying that she was in Danxia Temple and asked me to go there.
From these words, we could see how impatient she was, so I agreed and went out immediately under the guise of Jinfeng.
Arriving at the backyard of Danxia Temple, Ruochan did not sit and cook tea as before, a curtain hat was thrown on the stone platform, showing that the master came here in a hurry.
"The matter of Zhongping, Ah? μ? Robber's heir Chu Junbi? The sedan chair is purely lying? Ai? Gao hip province? br> "I heard. "I said, "Mr. Gongyang has already left." "
Ruochan nodded, after a while, as if calming down, she took a deep breath and let it out slowly.
"Don't worry." I said, "Young Master Gongyang has arrived in Huaiyang, how do you plan to rescue him?"
"What else can I do?" Ruochan pulled the corners of her lips stiffly, looked at me, "Go and find Mr. Ji Yuan."
It's exactly what I thought it would be.
I pondered and asked, "Is it possible?"
Ruochan shook her head: "I don't know, Zhongping can only have a try."
"What if it doesn't work?" I asked.
Ruochan's gaze was fixed, for a while, the fundus of her eyes turned red slightly.
"Zhong Ping brought the sword and leather armor." She whispered.
I didn't speak. The meaning of this statement is that if Gong Yang cannot be rescued softly, he will rescue Ma Kui by force.
"Does Mr. Gongyang's family know?" I thought for a while and looked at Ruochan: "I heard that there are many more checkpoints on the way to Huaiyang now."
Ruochan's eyes flashed: "Checkpoint?"
I nodded: "Exactly."
The two faced each other silently. Ruochan is a smart person, she already understands what I mean without clicking on it.
"As for Huaiyang, you can write a letter and tell Pei Qian about it. Pei Qian has an old relationship with Mr. Gongyang. If he can help, he will help without Mr. Gongyang personally. If he can't..."
"If you can't help, Zhongping can't go." Ruochan continued, her voice calmed down.
I said again: "But now that the north and the south are confronting each other, it's hard to find a safe messenger."
"There's no need to worry, I still know some people in Yongdu." Ruochan said, looking at me with bright eyes. She frowned and murmured, and walked back and forth in the yard a few steps, holding her fingers together, just like she used to think about things that would excite her.
"Ah Cheng!" She suddenly called out of the courtyard.
Not long after, a servant came in to salute.
"Prepare the car, I'm going down the mountain immediately." Ruochan said.
The servant responded, Ruochan picked up the veiled hat on the stone platform and put it on swiftly, before walking away, she turned to look at me.
"Ah? Α?? He? Zhao∥ industry? Zheng? Carrying? Walking? Shaking caries? Sneaking out secretly Bai Yuanyou's armpits? Counseling?? Scratching Chunyan Meng? ?br> That finger is greasy with sweat, It was extremely cold. I looked at Ruochan's face behind the veil, and remembered her expression that seemed to not care about anything when we met again.
For such a tough-minded person, to reach this point, I am afraid that his heart has already been moved.
Something seemed to be tied up in my heart, and the figure under the city wall that day suddenly floated up again.
I opened my mouth to say something, and for a moment, I only curled the corners of my lips: "It's not too late, let's go."
Ruochan nodded, let go of my hand, turned and left.
Her figure disappeared as soon as she turned around outside the courtyard gate, and I was still standing there, thinking about the thoughts that had just passed me by.
The wind blows with the unique taste of summer, dry and warm. The sound of bells in the distance is faint, and the sound of nuns chanting sutras is long and slow, as long as ancient times.
What do you want to do, but you can't see him. I laughed at myself.
I looked at the sky, sighed softly, and walked out of the courtyard.
I had just returned to the mansion, and before going to court, I suddenly saw Wei An running over.
"Sister-in-law!" There was a rare smile on his thoughtful face, his eyes were bright, "Father has a book, and I'm allowed to go to the camp with you!"
