Chapter 193 Follow Me
Bai Zhao did not say anything back, but just smiled awkwardly, grabbed the edge of the carriage, and did not dare to shout out.
The funeral procession was indeed dispersed, and the coffin almost overturned. It was only thanks to Wei Liu's intervention that it was stabilized.
"My fault! I'm sorry for scaring the horse suddenly." Wei Liu stopped and apologized repeatedly.
The leader of the funeral procession said with a stern face, "Do you know who is in there? Why is he so aggressive?"
"I'm sorry, we were escaping from Liu County and encountered a land bull that turned over, and the horse got scared. Look, it kicked its back at the slightest movement."
Wei Liu pretended to be miserable and explained, which really attracted the man's attention.
"Liu County has suffered a sudden turn of events, but what about the capital city?" This man was none other than Miss Bai's wet daddy, Bai Daddy.
His wife, White Nainian, was walking beside the coffin, tears streaming down her face.
"Are you serious? That would be terrible. The capital will be in trouble."
"Yes, the capital was also hit by the disaster. It is said that the imperial palace was also affected and fled to the suburbs. There are also a few princes who have died. But I heard this from hearsay. I don't know what is going on in the capital."
After Wei Liu finished speaking, he hurriedly distanced himself from the matter, "Only one out of ten houses in Liu County are still standing. Where are you going? If you're going to Jucheng, it's fine. But if you go south and pass by Liu County, you have to be careful."
"Master, what should we do?" Nanny Bai was a little anxious. She glanced at the coffin and said, "We must bury the young lady in peace. Even if Madam opposes, we must bury her in the mountains over in the capital, closer to the late Madam."
"An unmarried girl died?" Wei Liu pretended to be surprised.
Nanny Bai held back her tears and nodded, "Yes, the young lady lost her mother when she was young, and the current wife is the second wife. Unmarried girls cannot be buried in the ancestral tomb."
"In my opinion, you should slow down and think it over tonight before returning. The situation in the capital is not good."
Wei Liu looked honest, and the couple did not do what he expected. They thanked him repeatedly and did not even pursue the matter of the collision.
Bai Naidi glanced behind Wei Liu and said, "Let's go! I won't bother with you because of your news."
"Boss, let's take it easy for now and go to Jucheng early tomorrow morning."
It was late in autumn and the nights were long; even if they hurried they might not reach Jucheng.
Let’s discuss now whether or not to return to the capital.
Given the situation in the capital, no matter how much Prime Minister Bai values the young lady, he cannot put aside the affairs of the court.
Wei Liu clasped his fists and said goodbye, then turned around and smiled.
Bai Zhao sat outside the carriage and witnessed everything.
I didn't expect it to be so simple.
He immediately sent a message to his daughter, "We have succeeded here and will arrive in the evening. Where are you now? Where should we meet up?"
"There is a boat at the innermost part of South Town Pier. We will leave tonight."
"it is good."
Wei Liu came back and continued on his journey.
The people behind followed closely.
Old Lady Bai jumped onto their carriage and asked, "How is Jingzhi?"
The old lady saw her granddaughter leave with her own eyes, and she never believed the sarcastic words of Old Lady Zhou, so her granddaughter did not escape early.
"Nothing, don't worry, we'll be able to meet up in the evening." Bai Zhao made room for Old Lady Bai, "Mother, I'm sorry to have troubled you. It must be cold on the ox cart. Come in and warm up."
Bai Zhao gave her a thin quilt and asked her to cover herself with it.
Bai Jingzhi took away a carriage, which was vacated for the couple. Old Mrs. Zhou looked unhappy at that time.
"Aunt Zhou didn't say anything, right?" Bai Zhao asked this question because he saw that the old lady looked unhappy.
"Humph! She said that our Jingzhi had left us and ran away, and we had a few words with her."
Old Mrs. Bai said this angrily.
"We can stay away from here tonight and avoid having to deal with her."
After Bai Zhao smoothed Old Lady Bai's hair, he stopped talking.
He sent a message to Bai Jingzhi, but there was no reply.
Bai Jingzhi really didn't have time to reply. She looked at the girl in front of her who insisted on leaving with them and felt a headache.
Just now, the four of them were looking for Zhou Yue'e and walked all the way to the innermost part.
Zhou Yue'e's carriage was parked on the side of the road, with two people guarding it.
"Where is Miss Zhou? Why is the carriage just left here?"
I only saw the carriage, but not the person.
Wei Li tied up the ox cart and said, "Don't run around. I'll go over and ask. Use this for self-defense."
He looked around, his eyes flashing with ferocity, and scratched the stone pillar next to him with his dagger, then handed it to Bai Jingzhi, "Don't be soft-hearted, I'm here for you."
The air around them suddenly turned cold, and the person who had been following them stepped back slightly.
After this shock, Wei Li felt relieved to look for the person.
At this point, Bai Jingzhi was also a little worried.
The carriage they were riding in was the original Wei family's carriage.
Not only is it spacious and comfortable, it can also hold a lot of things.
When Zhou Yue'e set out, she loaded some gold and silver into the car.
Bai Jingzhi whispered, "Please don't let anything happen."
"Don't be afraid, cousin. I will protect you." Wei Duan saw that her face was not right and quickly said, "I have practiced with Uncle Yong for a while, and I am very good at it."
"Row!"
Bai Jingzhi answered perfunctorily and began to look around at the surrounding situation.
There was a large ship facing them, and after their team reunited, it was more than enough to accommodate all the people and food.
She just took a look, and what she had was totally not enough.
Just buy a simple boat that can carry people.
As long as they can avoid the troops in Jucheng, they will be safe.
Bai Jingzhi withdrew his envious gaze and no longer had any desire for it.
"careful!"
A girl walked out of the cabin of the big ship and shouted towards the shore, "Be careful!"
Bai Jingzhi then realized that something was wrong. Someone was trying to steal the food.
The girl was Zhou Yue'e.
Seeing this scene, Zhou Yue'e became anxious and jumped directly into the air. She stepped on the surrounding boats with her toes a few times and reached the shore.
"Where are you running to, little thief!"
Zhou Yue'e moved freely on the shore and caught the man in no time.
She just kicked the man a few times and took the food back, "Get out of here now, or I'll kill you with my sword!"
The deal was not reached just now, and Zhou Yue'e was very angry. She stepped too hard, and the man could not stand up and had to crawl forward.
Bai Jingzhi asked with concern, "Sister Yue'e, how is it? Did you buy it?"
Zhou Yue'e could only shake her head, "The owner won't sell it."
"The ship you just got off?" Bai Jingzhi smiled awkwardly, "Don't blame them for not selling it. We can't even exchange a third of that big ship for this little stuff."
"It's true that I just had a wild idea." Zhou Yue'e blushed and felt a little embarrassed.
"Wait!" A girl walked out from the big ship. She was wearing white clothes and had a simple white flower in her hair.
He looks like a person in mourning.
The girl on the boat shouted:
"I am willing to sell the boat, but there is one condition: I can go on board and have a chat."
"That young master can rest assured. No one dares to touch my things. If someone touches them, be careful of bad luck."
