Chapter 224 Passing By



Yuan Heng studied the two letters and confirmed a few things:

First, Yuan Qiyu is not in danger and has gone out to make his way in the world.

Second, he didn't know why he suddenly wanted to start a business. Although he didn't know what to do, he said it seriously.

Third, Yuan Qi Yu did not contact anyone, hid his whereabouts, and only wrote a letter to him, his third uncle.

Although the address in the letter was a bit disrespectful, Yuan Heng didn't mind it and felt quite happy.

So he rewrote the letter and, based on the stamp addresses on the two letters he had received, deduced Yuan Qi Yu's approximate route.

With a try-it attitude, he ordered someone to send the letter to the address he had deduced.

But then I thought, what if Yuan Qi Yu can’t receive it?

So he simply wrote seven or eight letters in a row and sent them to seven or eight cities with post stations.

The contents of the letters were pretty much the same, very simple and direct:

Xiaoyu, we have sent people to suppress the bandits. Doing business? Yes! Short of money?

Xiaoyu, good business! Support! Are you short of money?

Xiaoyu, I have enclosed a banknote with this letter. Please write to me if you need money.

Xiaoyu, be brave. With Uncle San, you're not afraid of losing out! Attached is the banknote.

After sending out a series of letters like this, there should be one letter that Yuan Qi Yu should receive, and only then will Yuan Heng feel relieved.

For this reason, he couldn't help but think that he should settle down in Liangzhou City as soon as possible, so that he wouldn't have to deal with any trouble that kid caused again.

Thinking this in his mind, he walked outside the camp and saw Yuan Musheng sitting motionless by the fire, wondering what he was thinking about.

Seeing this, Yuan Heng stepped forward, patted his shoulder, sat beside him and asked,

"What are you thinking about?"

Yuan Musheng came back to his senses and shook his head.

Seeing him like this, Yuan Heng couldn't help but sneer, "Hey, you're so young, don't act like an old man like Yuan Cheng!"

The four children of the imperial sister are all smarter than the other, except Yuan Musheng who matured at a young age.

She is clearly at the prime age, but because she is always around Yuan Cheng, who has a gloomy face, she always looks gloomy as well.

Yuan Heng couldn't stand it the most.

Hearing Yuan Heng say this, Yuan Musheng couldn't help but reveal a youthful smile and said, "I'm just worried about mother and third brother."

Yuan Heng raised his eyebrows, and his smiling face dimmed. He threw half a piece of wood into the fire and said,

"Huo Yan won't let anything happen to my sister."

Yuan Musheng hummed, and Yuan Heng stood up and patted him again, saying, "Go to bed early. We will set off early tomorrow and try to reach Liangzhou as soon as possible."

Liangzhou...

Yuan Musheng stared at the northwest direction. Liangzhou was only five hundred miles away from Xiaoyue City in Beiqiang.

A hint of sadness appeared on his handsome face.

In fact, he was not only worried about his family, he was also worried about another person along the way.

After learning that Huo Pingchang had colluded with the enemy and betrayed his country to become Helian Chang of Beiqiang, the first person he thought of was Helian Yu.

Yuan Musheng had been disabled for five years, and his old friends had long since left. After returning to the capital, they would only approach him if there was profit to be made.

He stayed with Yuan Cheng and was unwilling to make close friends with others.

Helian Yu is open-minded, upright and idealistic.

Even though the two were in different countries, during their time in the capital, they threw off these shackles, talked about everything, and expressed their feelings freely.

With the arrival of Helian Yu, Yuan Musheng finally had his first real friend of the same age.

Sometimes Yuan Musheng also thought that if they were in the same country, one could be civil and the other military, supporting each other and making progress, they would definitely be able to achieve great things.

But the reality is always not as we wish.

After knowing that Helian Yu's father was actually Huo Pingchang, even if he didn't see Helian Yu, Yuan Musheng could know what a blow he would suffer.

How should he cope? I'm afraid he won't even be able to get over the hurdle in his heart, and he'll be the one suffering the most.

What Yuan Musheng didn't know was that while he was worried about Helian Yu, Helian Yu had already ridden a fast horse straight from Xiaoyue City to Dacheng Capital.

Even though he knew it was inappropriate to go to the capital of Dacheng at this critical moment, Helian Yu still wanted to make this trip for some reason.

He also wanted to see Yuan Musheng again. In such a helpless situation, he wanted to discuss with Brother Musheng what he should do.

But unexpectedly, the two of them passed each other and missed each other.

Helian Yu traveled day and night and wore a conical hat before entering the city.

He went straight to the princess's mansion, but found the door closed.

After waiting for a long time, it was almost dark and there was no sign of the door opening.

He wanted to go to the Huo family and see what his father's original home was like, but he didn't have the courage.

So he could only walk dejectedly on the street, not knowing where to go.

He was a little breathless because of the conical hat, so he lifted it slightly and wanted to buy a bun on the roadside.

A carriage passed by behind him and stopped again.

Someone lifted the carriage curtain and called out doubtfully,

"Master Helian..."

Helian Shi turned around and met Xie Wanqing's eyes in the car.

Xie Wanqing's breathing almost stopped. She looked at the person in front of her with some disbelief and asked again to confirm,

"Is that you? Second Young Master?"

When she called out "Helian", many people around looked over. She realized that it was inappropriate and stopped calling out this surname that had been widely discussed in the city recently.

Helian Yu also knew what he looked like now, and nodded almost stiffly.

He is now completely different from when he left the capital. He has lost a lot of weight and looks very haggard.

Stubble grew on his chin, and the handsome young man instantly looked much more haggard.

Xie Wanqing didn't recognize him at first, but he vaguely felt that the figure was very similar.

Seeing how miserable he looked, she didn't know what had happened, but she was sure it was not a good thing.

So she said to Helian Yu, "Second Young Master, please get in the carriage first."

The maid beside her heard this and advised, "Miss, this is not polite..."

Xie Wanqing just glanced at her, and the maid stopped talking and lifted the curtain of the carriage.

Helian Yu pursed his lips and did not get in the car. He just said, "Nothing, thank you, I have a horse."

"I just wanted to ask Miss Xie, do you know where Brother Mu Sheng is? I have something important to discuss with him."

Xie Wanqing didn't expect that Helian Yu came all the way back just to see Yuan Musheng.

So she sighed and said, "Young Master Yuan left for Liangzhou City a few days ago. Calculating the date, I'm afraid he's almost here by now."

When Helian Yu heard this, he didn't know how to respond.

He has been through so much these days.

The world is so big now, he doesn't know where to go.

So Helian Yu cupped his hands and said, "Thank you very much, young lady."

He was about to leave, but Xie Wanqing stopped him.

"Second Young Master, please stay. If you have nowhere else to go, please follow me."
