Chapter 144: Lack of a Good Show (Part 2)
Just like when Tathagata came here, there were still as many carriages when he left.
Qu Zhiwen, Wan Mingjun, Chen, Kang and others accompanied He Yanxiu, Su Yujin and others to a place more than ten miles outside the city gate.
After some pleasantries and the exchange of many gifts, they parted with difficulty.
The carriage moved slowly along the official road.
Ai Cao and Qing Kui seemed particularly excited in the carriage.
Although I was very happy staying in Hedong Prefecture, I was naturally happier to be going home.
Su Yujin was also happy that she could return to Qinghe. After all, she had lived there when she first came to this world and had acquired so many properties there.
To her, that was home.
Your own home.
But Su Yujin was also a little unhappy.
Because of the carriage.
It cannot be said that his carriage is uncomfortable. In fact, the carriage had been repaired in Hedong Prefecture, and the cushions on the seat were replaced with new ones, making it more comfortable to sit in.
But compared to He Yanxiu's large and comfortable carriage, his own was really not good enough.
And because of the hot summer, He Yanxiu put ice cubes on the carriage...
Do you want to find some excuse to go look for the Second Master?
Just as Su Yujin was planning how to enjoy the comfortable carriage, the carriage stopped.
"What happened?"
Before Su Yujin finished her question, Xing'an had already trotted to the carriage, "Miss Su, the Second Master would like you to ride in the same carriage with him."
Sleepy pillow! "I'll be there right away."
After simply packing up her pillow and her round fan, Su Yujin got on He Yanxiu's carriage.
As she entered the carriage, a fresh breath greeted her, in stark contrast to the heat outside and the stuffiness of her own carriage earlier.
There are also iced fruits and cooling tea on the carriage.
Even when He Yanxiu closed his eyes to rest, he looked contented and obviously enjoyed this trip very much.
Woo woo woo woo, it’s really so happy to be the master.
When she makes enough money to get her slavery back, she will also run away and live a life like this! By then, her carriage must be more comfortable than this one!
However, for now, I still have to get a ride on the Second Master's carriage first.
Speaking of which, the Second Master is still considerate of his servants...
While Su Yujin was daydreaming, He Yanxiu opened his mouth and said, "Why don't you continue the story you told last time?"
It takes more than ten days to travel from Hedong Prefecture to Qinghe County, which is just enough time to kill some lonely time on the road.
Su Yujin, "..."
It turns out that he had an ulterior motive and it was not just out of pure compassion.
It seems that I have praised the Second Master too much this time.
But in other words, even if she had some ulterior motive, she told stories to the Second Master, and he was treated to good food and drink and stayed in a comfortable carriage, which was fair.
Can't tell what's wrong...
So, just talk about it.
"Yes, Second Master." Su Yujin cleared his throat and was about to speak when his expression suddenly changed.
That story is not finished yet!
On the way here, she had almost talked about the latest part she had seen, and she had no idea what was going on next?
"Ahem!" Su Yujin rolled her eyes, "Second Master, the storyteller hasn't finished telling the story yet, and I don't know what happens next..."
"Is that so?" A layer of disappointment suddenly appeared on He Yanxiu's face. "If that's the case..."
I can't leave such a cool carriage! Su Yujin hurriedly said, "I have a story about an ordinary mortal cultivating immortality. Do you want to listen to it, Master?"
The words "Then you can rest here for a while" had already slipped off the tip of his tongue, but He Yanxiu swallowed them hard and said, "Okay."
The so-called cultivation of immortals is mostly based on coincidence, extraordinary talent, or a bizarre life experience. This is the story of an ordinary person cultivating immortals...
Maybe it would be interesting? Su Yujin cleared her throat and told the whole story according to her memory.
The carriage was shaking along the way, but it became less boring because of Su Yujin's sometimes soft words and sometimes vivid descriptions.
What makes the place even less boring is that Su Yujin shows off her cooking skills from time to time.
Sometimes when she couldn't find an inn or village to stay in during a lunch break on the road, Su Yujin was always able to make delicious meals with the few ingredients she had.
For example, the delicious beggar's chicken in front of you is wrapped in lotus leaves, covered with a layer of yellow mud and roasted in the fire.
The fish caught from the river are hollowed out and clamped in thick bamboos nearby, then roasted in bamboo tubes over the fire.
Put a stone on the fire as a wok and make oily fried meat slices.
And the pile of stones mixed with bread, the fragrant stone buns...
This made He Yanxiu suddenly feel that this was not a journey, but a trip. There were new expectations and new gains every day.
It was also because of this that the journey, which was originally planned to take half a month, took a full twenty-five days.
"Second Master, we will be returning to Beijing more than ten days later than expected. Is that really okay?" Xing'an was a little worried.
"No problem." He Yanxiu disagreed.
Although his wrist had almost recovered, the splint had been removed, and his rib injuries had almost healed, he was still a patient if you looked closely.
It is normal for patients to feel uncomfortable on the road and walk slowly.
If there is any hindrance, it will only be that matter that will delay some time.
He Yanxiu lowered his eyes, "Where is that person now? Where was he sent to?"
"He was sent to Qinghe County a few days ago and has been held in secret ever since. No news has leaked out." Xing'an replied in a low voice, "The people that the Second Master asked to be prepared are all ready and can leave at any time."
"If we count the time, it's about time. Let's get people ready to go. Walk slowly on the road. There have to be some loopholes, but not too many. And you still have to appear cautious on your face."
He Yanxiu said, "People should leave in batches, with a few days' difference between them. He is usually suspicious, so this is just right for him."
"Yes." Xing'an agreed, "I will do it right away."
Seeing Xing'an busy, He Yanxiu scraped the foam on the teacup with the lid and took a sip of tea.
The tea has a strong fragrance and tastes refreshing, making it a rare good tea.
This way of drinking tea is the most comfortable, except for the lack of a good show.
But good things may come late, but they will come eventually.
He Yanxiu couldn't help but curl the corners of his lips. ——When He Yanxiu and Su Yujin arrived at the house in Shuanggui Lane, Qinghe County, it was already evening.
He instructed the other guards and followers to settle down in the inn in the county town and rush to the capital early the next morning. He Yanxiu stayed in Su Yujin's yard, planning to stay there for a few more days.
Firstly, Su Yujin needs to carefully check his recovery from injuries.
Secondly, He Yanxiu wanted to wait for that person's schedule.
