The Prime Minister's delicate wife can control her husband
Chapter 55 Departure
Old Master Yan had someone pass the horse stool to the two of them. Yan Sheng limped over to him and asked, "Grandpa, what do you want to ask about Da Wu?"
"Sheng'er, come in and talk!" Old Master Yan gestured to him to invite him in.
"Grandpa, you should go first." Yan Sheng looked back at Jiao Niang before leaving.
Arriving at the old man's room, Yan Sheng asked, "Grandpa has something going on and asked you to call me alone."
"Aren't you going to Dawu? I thought it would be difficult and dangerous to go to Dawu, and I was worried that you would be alone there without help, so I wrote a letter to my friend in Dawu in advance, and he will come to pick you up when you arrive in Dawu."
"This is the token of our agreement. Keep it. If you have any questions in Dawu, you can ask him."
Yan Sheng held Grandpa Yan's things in his hand and looked at them for a while. "Grandpa, what is this? Why haven't I seen it in the Great Zhou Dynasty?"
"This is the Qiang flute I bought in Da Qi when I was young. When my good friend and I parted, I broke it into two pieces, half for me and half for him. He eventually went to Da Wu to do business, and I continued to do business in Da Zhou. This time when you went to Da Wu, I specifically told him to take good care of you."
"Thank you grandpa!"
Yan Sheng clasped his fists and said, "Then I will set off for Dawu the day after tomorrow morning."
"Go and be safe!"
Yan Sheng returned to the bridal chamber, looked at the Qiang flute in his hand, and murmured, "I seem to have seen this kind of Qiang flute somewhere."
Yan Sheng closed his eyes and recalled where he had seen it before. He suddenly stood up and clapped his hands, then picked up the purple jade token in the lining for comparison.
"Is it a coincidence?"
There happened to be a half-broken Qiang flute on the top of the Purple Jade Order. The shape of the Qiang flute was exactly the same as the one in my hand! It seemed that Grandpa knew something...
"Third brother, I have given the token to Sheng'er. It depends on whether he can solve the mystery."
“Dad! I…I…”
"Just say it!" Master Yan stared at Yan Lao San and said.
Yan Lao San stammered, "I want to protect Sheng'er in secret. I'm worried something might happen."
"If you go to Dawu, who will collect the herbs? This will be a test for Sheng'er. As long as the person in Dawu recognizes him, he won't dare to attack Sheng'er. If he doesn't listen, I will go to Dawu and kill him myself."
"Okay, Dad!"
Yan San returned to his room, packed up the banknotes in his home and stuffed them into Jiao Niang's package.
"Why don't you hand it over to Sheng'er yourself, but instead do this?" Madam Qin asked inside the house.
"I... I don't know why, I feel like there's too much of a gap between me and Sheng'er, I don't know how to communicate with him. When I went back to the mansion to look for you, he was already twelve or thirteen years old. If it weren't for me, Sheng'er wouldn't have become disabled."
"Wait until he comes back from Dawu, then you can slowly communicate with him and untie the knot in your heart. You are father and son, and there is nothing you cannot talk about."
Madam Qin comforted her.
Yan Sheng was hiding behind the door and heard everything clearly. He immediately turned around and left.
Hearing the rustling sound outside the house, Madam Qin stuck her head out to check and murmured, "Did I hear it wrongly?"
Qingwen also started to prepare the clothes she was going to take with her at home. Jiao Niang took this opportunity to take Zhang Sui'an to the house in the suburbs to meet her parents.
Zhang Sui'an obediently called out twice, "Dad, Mom"
"How strange!", and then he took out a hand-woven red rope knot from his sleeve.
Zhang Laosi said, "Dad and Mom hope you grow up safely."
"Thank you, Mom and Dad! I will protect you when I grow up."
Zhang Laosi took out two woven red knots and handed them to Maolan, "One for you and one for Yan Sheng! This is a gift your mother woven all night yesterday."
"Thank you, Dad!"
Jiao Niang and Zhang Sui'an stayed in the new house until dark before returning home.
Wu Jingui sat in a chair, drinking tea leisurely and complaining about his exhausting life.
Master Wu happened to hear it and said, "I told you not to go, but you insisted on going. Now you are being roasted on the fire, unable to get down or up. Why didn't you listen to your father?"
"Dad! When I come back, my Wu family will be the most prosperous family in Xingwen County. Just wait for good news from your son."
Wu Jingui supported his father, and his father took out a red rope from his sleeve and said, "Tie it around your wrist. I got it from the temple to keep you safe! If it doesn't work, just run back to the Wu family quietly."
"Oh, what do you mean by this, Dad? Why should I come back quietly? Can't you hope for the best for your son?"
"I know your mind best!"
When the two were communicating enthusiastically in the courtyard, Manager Geng came to Wu's house.
The two men from the Wu family came forward to greet them, and Master Wu said, "Why didn't you tell me in advance that you were coming? I could have prepared some top-quality tea in the courtyard."
"No need! Master Wu will leave for Dawu from the east of the city tomorrow! You can pack up at home, someone will meet you tomorrow."
After hearing his words, Master Wu was first shocked and then worried, "Sir, are you leaving for Dawu so soon?"
"Yes! The situation in Da Zhou is urgent and we can't afford to take it off any longer."
After hearing this, Wu Jingui replied, "Sir, I am ready to sacrifice my life for the country. If I cannot come back, please take good care of my father."
"These are things that everyone in the building should do. Just go there and come back safely. Just avoid causing any trouble on the way. The people who are going out with you this time are all the best in the building."
After giving the reminder, Chief Steward Geng left, but he was stopped by Master Wu, "Sir, may I have a word with you?"
"Can I have a word with you?" Manager Geng repeated.
When Wu Jingui entered the room, Mr. Wu took out a stack of silver bills from his pocket.
"Sir, this is all the savings of our Wu family. We only hope that my son is safe. Please accept it!"
......
Manager Geng returned to Zuiyan Tower, handed the stack of banknotes to Yan Sheng, and whispered the situation into his ear.
"Got it! Let's first sort out the route for departure."
"Tomorrow I will go from the south of the city, through Yun County and then to Qingzhou County; and you will go directly to Qingzhou County to rest for two days, and then I will go from Qingzhou County to Balang County!"
After listening to Song Fengren's arrangement, everyone said, "Yes!!!"
At dawn in the morning, Wu Jingui came to the agreed place to meet with the arranged people, and the two carriages from the Yan Mansion were also ready to set off. Yan Sheng, Jiao Niang, and Yan Qin set off together, followed by Yan An, Qingwen, and Zhang Suian.
"Be careful and come back safely!" Everyone in the Yan family warned at the gate.
Wu Jingui reunited with Chief Steward Geng, Song Fengren and others.
Because they were masked, Wu Jingui did not recognize their faces.
"Let's go!", Jingyang shouted.
Wu Jingui said to Jing Yang in a low voice: "My Lord, allow me to say goodbye to my father."
It turned out that when he was about to set off, Wu Jingui turned around and saw his father seeing him off at an inconspicuous position at the city gate.
"Son, be careful!" Master Wu hugged him and cried.
"I will definitely come back safely. Just wait for me to come back and take care of you until the end of your life."
