Chapter 113: It's the son who is unfilial and makes his mother worried
Fei Nanyu is so smart.
"Mrs. Mo wants me to help return the silver to its original owner."
He Zhiran likes to deal with smart people.
"Mr. Fei also knows that my husband and I are in a hurry to get on the road and have no time to do this. What's more, our identities are not suitable..."
Fei Nanyu already agreed with her idea and nodded, "If Madam Mo trusts me, I will definitely get the job done."
After a pause, he continued, "County Magistrate Sun must have received instructions from someone to hoard so much Coptis chinensis.
Judging from the current situation in Dongfeng County, the plague was most likely caused by humans. At the very least, King Qi's disaster relief efforts would be in vain, and at worst, King Qi would be infected with the plague and die.
We all know who will benefit most from this result. I think that when King Qi learns about this, he will definitely take revenge.
I believe that by that time, Prince Heng will be in a panic and will not have time to continue attacking Master Mo.
Also, after I return to the capital, I will think of a suitable reason to spread the news that Master Mo and Prince Qi had a falling out.
Once Prince Heng believes it, he will completely give up the idea of assassinating Master Mo, and only then will your future days be peaceful."
He Zhiran didn't expect that Fei Nanyu would consider these things so quickly, and they were even completely consistent with what he guessed might happen.
What made her even more gratified was that Fei Nanyu actually took the initiative to propose returning to Beijing to spread the news that Mo Jiuye and Nan Qi had broken up.
This saved her and Mo Jiuye from having to beg for mercy.
He Zhiran bowed sincerely towards Fei Nanyu.
"Thank you, Mr. Fei, for considering our Mohist school. I thank you on behalf of the entire Mohist school."
Fei Nanyu quickly gave him some support.
"Mrs. Mo, you're too polite. If we're talking about gratitude, you saved me first, and you helped me so much today. I should be the one to express my gratitude."
The two exchanged pleasantries, and seeing that it was getting late, He Zhiran offered to leave.
As for how to arrange the coptis chinensis and silver money here, that is Fei Nanyu's concern.
After returning to the mule cart, He Zhiran simply told Mo Jiuye about what had just happened, and then drove off in the mule cart.
In order to take care of Mo Jiuye's health, she didn't dare drive too fast.
It was not until they ran more than ten miles and felt that the surroundings were safe that He Zhiran sent Mo Jiuye into the space to recuperate.
He Zhiran didn't stop the car to rest until the sun set.
She parked the mule cart in a safe place, bought some fodder for the mules, and then slipped into the space.
In this way, He Zhiran drove a mule cart during the day and entered the space to rest at night.
On the sixth day of traveling, Mo Jiuye guessed that they should be not far from the large group of exiles.
At this time, He Zhiran had changed back into his original outfit.
The stitches on Mo Jiuye's wounds were removed, and he could move as if he had not been injured.
He insisted on driving the mule cart instead of He Zhiran.
He Zhiran simply sat next to him and admired the unique ancient scenery.
Before dusk, the two finally saw the exiled troops.
He Zhiran considered that her family had not eaten the fruits that could be purchased in her own space, so she took this opportunity to buy some fruits that were not too special in this era and bring them back, and by the way, give some to the officials as a thank you gift.
After all, if he and Mo Jiuye had been away from the team for so long without the tacit consent of the officials, they would probably have reported the matter to the court as a routine matter.
Seeing that He Zhiran was ready, Mo Jiuye controlled the mule cart to speed up, and in the blink of an eye, they caught up with the team.
The officer at the end of the team opened his mouth in amazement when he saw the people sitting on the mule cart.
Without caring about anything else, the officer quickly ran to the front of the team, shouting, "Boss, Mo Jiuye is back..."
Mo Jiuye slowed down the mule cart and gradually arrived at the location of the Mo family.
At the same time, Peng Wang also heard the officers' shouts and walked towards them, and happened to meet them at the Mohist team.
Mo Jiuye first nodded politely to Peng Wang, then walked to Old Madam Mo and knelt down with a thud.
"I am an unfilial son and I have made my mother worry."
As he spoke, he kowtowed solemnly to Madam Mo.
Mrs. Mo's eyes were filled with tears. She walked towards Mo Jiuye step by step and reached out to help him up.
She choked up and said, "It's good that you're back, it's good that you're back..."
Seeing this scene, the sisters-in-law kept wiping away their tears.
Mo Hanyue was even more exaggerated, throwing herself into He Zhiran's arms and crying loudly.
"Sister-in-law Jiu, you're finally back. Hanyue couldn't sleep every day because she was worried about you... wuwuwu...
Sister-in-law Jiu, Hanyue misses you and Brother Jiu..."
He Zhiran embraced Mo Hanyue and comforted her softly: "Hanyue, don't cry, we are back safely, aren't we?"
Mo Hanyue was crying with joy, but naturally she didn't cry for too long. She lay in He Zhiran's arms and acted coquettishly for a while before returning to Madam Mo's side.
At this time, Mo Jiuye had already arrived in front of Peng Wang.
I've been away from the team for so long, I need an explanation.
"Brother Peng, this happened suddenly. My wife and I accidentally fell off a cliff. Fortunately, Lord Zhou arrived in time and brought us out of the valley..."
Peng Wang looked at Mo Jiuye carefully and patted him on the shoulder.
"Old Eight has already told me about this when he came back. It's not your fault. Just catch up with the team.
You just came back, comfort your family. They've been terribly worried about what happened to you."
Mo Jiuye clasped his fists towards Peng Wang gratefully and said, "Thank you, Brother Peng, for your understanding."
Peng Wang looked at the sky and ordered them to move forward for another half an hour and then rest on the spot.
He Zhiran considered that Mo Jiuye had survived the disaster and returned to his family, and believed that Madam Mo and the sisters-in-law would have a lot to say to him, so he followed behind, pulling the mule cart.
Zhou Laoba was in the middle of the team. Seeing He Zhiran alone, he couldn't control his pace and chased after him.
"He Shi, did you and Mo Jiuye have a smooth journey?"
He Zhiran gave him a polite smile in return. "Thank you for your concern, Mr. Zhou. Our journey was smooth. In order to meet up with you earlier, we bought a mule cart in Pingyang County, which made the journey much easier."
Peng Wang was not far away, and He Zhiran was indirectly telling him the origin of the mule cart by saying this.
Zhou Laoba didn't think so much. He glanced at the mule cart and whispered:
"Normally, an exile team isn't allowed to have a cart with it. But don't worry, I'll talk to the leader about this. After all, it's a special situation. Besides, I spent money to buy the cart, so I can't just throw it away."
Peng Wang rolled his eyes at Zhou Laoba. If he hadn't considered that He Zhiran was present, he would have grabbed his ear and taken him aside to teach him a lesson.
This Zhou Laoba is really something. He clearly knows that there is no possibility between him and He Shi, but he still wants to get close to her.
