Chapter 1658 Mo Zili Saves People (3)

Cai Wei's words made Nangong Yi's face stern. He said sullenly, "If I find out that he killed my mother, I will tear him into pieces to set an example!"

It is not difficult to investigate Li Kaifeng, because he is now in the prison of the Ministry of Justice. As long as we keep a close eye on him and don't alert him, his minions will be caught sooner or later!

Bianzhou, Qing County

Since passing the imperial examination, County Magistrate Shen has been an official in Qing County. It has been more than ten years now. He has been promoted from county magistrate to county magistrate. His official career has been smooth. This time he was transferred to the capital, and his superiors promoted him to the sixth rank of Chengyilang. After receiving the transfer order, County Magistrate Shen hurriedly handed over his official duties to the next county magistrate, and then made a final decision to set off for Beijing on September 24, so as to vacate the house for the next county magistrate as soon as possible.

Madam Cui had packed her luggage with her maids. A large number of servants were released from the mansion for the trip to Beijing. Some things that were inconvenient to carry were sold at a low price. For a while, the whole mansion became much emptier.

Juhua disliked the silence of her own courtyard and insisted on squeezing into her parents' courtyard to live in the east wing. Every day when her father went out to do business, she would accompany her mother Cui, packing her luggage or saying goodbye to relatives and friends. She had no time to go to the back garden, so she never saw Mo Zili again.

On the 24th, before dawn, Juhua was awakened by Xiaokui. She dressed and made up, and ate a little cake. The sky was still gray, and she was helped into the carriage.

This time, she was accompanied only by her wet nurse Zhou Mama, Xiaokui and Xiaobai, two second-class maids, Chunli and Chunqiu, two low-ranking maids, and two rough maids.

This long journey will take more than a month, and the whole month will be spent in the car. Lord Shen is used to enjoying life. He is afraid of being tired from riding in the car, so he specially customized three large cars with sleeping couches. Each of the three of them has one, so that they can lie down and rest when they are tired of sitting in the car.

The servants all took the servant carriage at the back. Several people sat in one car. Although they didn't have to walk, they couldn't sleep on the road.

This time, they will probably never come back to Beijing. Mrs. Shen Cui took away everything they could take away, pulling 30 horses. This is not counting the ten carts of fine goods, antiques and other good things taken away by the escort agency.

When they set off today, Juhua saw Mo Zili again. He was still the same as before, with a faint expression and unwilling to communicate with others. He stood outside the second gate alone with a horse. He didn't pay much attention to others talking to him, and he was independent and isolated from the world.

Juhua took a look and then lowered the curtain, not paying any more attention. Her mother Cui said goodbye to her uncle and aunts. Not long after she got on the carriage, Lord Shen also left the mansion and got on the horse. The carriage rolled and moved slowly all the way out of the city.

After leaving the city, the convoy stopped. County Magistrate Shen and some friends who came to see him off exchanged greetings, and then they set off again. This time, the time to go to Beijing was very tight. The superiors required Lord Shen to report within one and a half months, but he took more than ten days to deal with housework. Therefore, if he wanted to arrive in the capital on time, he had to travel day and night, and if necessary, he had to take a small road.

Three days later, Juhua and his party arrived at Yushu County, the southernmost part of Bianzhou Prefecture. After Yushu County, it was no longer the territory of Bianzhou.

At night, Juhua lay on the small bed in the inn, with her arms and legs spread out, letting Xiaokui kneel beside her to massage her sore legs. The nurse, Mama Zhou, sat beside her and said with a smile, "Girl, relax and go to bed early. Tomorrow we will take a shortcut to Huizhou. The road is all mountainous and very bumpy. You can't sleep in the car tomorrow."
