The coroner and the concubine doctor pursue the murderer in the Dali Temple
Chapter 205 Gathering and Departure
Chu Yunxi thought for a moment and said, "Second brother, go back to the Marquis' Mansion and pack your things. Wait for me for a day. I will go and discuss it with the prince. I want to go to Southern Xinjiang with you."
"You want to go too?" Chu Zhongxi frowned, "But the journey to Southern Xinjiang is long..."
"It's okay. I can handle it." Chu Yunxi had made up her mind. There had been too much news about Southern Xinjiang in the past few days. The Emperor-Slaying Star came from Southern Xinjiang. Yuan Rubai had the power of the Southern Xinjiang Wanjian Sect behind him. Now her elder brother had disappeared in Southern Xinjiang again. She was afraid that she would only find the answer to all this when she arrived in Southern Xinjiang.
Chu Zhongxi knew that he couldn't persuade her. Besides, he couldn't sit still after hearing the news about his elder brother, so how could he persuade his younger sister to stay?
"Okay, I'll wait for your news." Chu Zhongxi nodded.
Chu Yunxi did not stay in Ruyun Building for dinner, but went directly to Dali Temple to find Xiao Mubei, but was told that Xiao Mubei was out.
Chu Yunxi knew that Xiao Mubei was busy these two days, so she waited for him at the Dali Temple. It was not until it was completely dark that Xiao Mubei came back from outside with Li Jinghong.
Seeing Chu Yunxi waiting for him, Xiao Mubei said a few words to Li Jinghong, then walked over and held her hand, "Why are you standing outside? Are you cold?"
Chu Yunxi shook her head and smiled, "It's not cold, Prince, I have something to tell you."
Xiao Mubei took her back to the room and asked Hei Mu to get a heater to warm her hands.
Chu Yunxi told Xiao Mubei about what happened today, and finally said, "I want to go to Southern Xinjiang with my second brother to find my eldest brother, and at the same time investigate the matter of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect and the Emperor Slaying Star. Xiao Muyu had been living in Southern Xinjiang, and there must be some clues there. Yuan Rubai's identity must be found out before we can follow the clues. Since he wants to die quickly, we will let him live."
Xiao Mubei nodded, "I have transferred Yuan Rubai to the Heavenly Prison today. The guards there are stricter. Yuan Rubai is still imprisoned in a secret room. Those people will definitely not be able to find him. This way, we also have time to go to Southern Xinjiang to look for clues."
"We?" Chu Yunxi asked in surprise, "You want to go too?"
"How could I let you go to southern Xinjiang alone to take risks?" Xiao Mubei touched Chu Yunxi's head and smiled dotingly.
"I'm not alone either. My second brother is here, and I'm planning to bring my senior brother along as well..." Chu Yunxi muttered softly, but she was very happy in her heart.
"Anyway, I won't feel at ease if I'm not with you. I'm also familiar with Southern Xinjiang. It will be more convenient for you to do things if I go with you. Tomorrow morning, I will ask His Majesty for permission to go to Southern Xinjiang to investigate the case."
Chu Yunxi knew that his identity was useful and no one dared to neglect him wherever he went. In fact, she also hoped that Xiao Mubei could go with her.
"Okay then, but have you arranged Sun Shaozhen's affairs?"
"Everything has been arranged. The death row prisoner has been prepared. Sun Shaozhen can be replaced before the execution tomorrow. I originally planned to put her in Ruyun Tower first, but if we go to Southern Xinjiang, I suggest taking her with me. On the one hand, she can serve you, and on the other hand, you can keep an eye on her condition at any time. She can also avoid the limelight. When the Sun family's affairs are settled, no one will remember her anymore. Then she can return to the capital."
Xiao Mubei's arrangements were very thoughtful and Chu Yunxi couldn't find any fault with them, so they decided to do so.
The next step was to prepare things. Hei Mu went back to prepare things with Hong Yu. Xiao Mu Bei and Chu Yun Xi went to Ru Yun Lou to make arrangements and asked Wen Ru Lan to go with them. Butler Ling and Uncle Li would run Ru Yun Lou together first.
As for Han Zhener, let her recuperate in Ruyun Tower first. The Mansion of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery has no owner for the time being, so don't let her go there for now.
Xiao Mubei divided the Purple Guards into two teams. One team secretly accompanied him to southern Xinjiang, while the other team stayed in the capital to protect the safety of the palace and Ruyun Tower.
Hongyu and Sun Shaozhen accompanied Chu Yunxi, Xiao Mubei brought Baiyu and Heimu, Chu Zhongxi and Wen Rulan were alone and did not bring any followers.
The team was decided. Wen Rulan was reluctant to leave his Ruyun Building, but he was even more worried about Chu Yunxi's safety. Although he agreed to go with them, he was obviously unhappy. Only when Chu Yunxi promised to give him an extra 10% of the shares of Ruyun Building did he become happy again.
After the morning court session on the second day, Xiao Mubei went to the imperial study to report to Emperor Sui Ming about Yuan Rubai's affairs, as well as the discovery of traces of the Southern Xinjiang Wanjian Sect in the capital. He speculated that there were still remnants of the Emperor-Slaying Star, so he wanted to go to Southern Xinjiang to investigate.
Emperor Sui Ming agreed and gave him a token allowing him to mobilize nearby troops in an emergency.
Chu Yunxi had already made preparations at the palace. There were four large carriages in total, one for Xiao Mubei and Chu Yunxi, one for Hongyu and Sun Shaozhen, and one for the others, who could go in and rest when they were tired of riding. The remaining one was for luggage and things needed on the road.
This group of people planned to disguise themselves as bodyguards. This way they could avoid unnecessary trouble. Secondly, it could conceal their identities and not make a big fuss. After all, there were quite a lot of people in this convoy.
Everything was ready. Xiao Mubei also came back from the palace and said to Chu Yunxi, "Let's go outside the city and wait for Sun Shaozhen. Someone will send her out later."
Chu Yunxi nodded, Yue Yanran still held her and Hongyu's eyes red, "Sister, you are all gone, there will be no one to talk to Yanran in the future."
Hongyu patted Yue Yanran on the head and comforted her like an older sister: "Be good, Yanran. Sister will be back soon. You should study medicine well with Doctor Lu. Next time when sister comes back, I will bring you delicious food."
"It's settled then. Sister Hongyu will bring some delicious food to Yanran when she comes back."
"must."
Chu Yunxi took out a few thick books and gave them to Yue Yanran, "You can't stop reading. You have to study hard when I'm not in the capital. Finish reading these books before I come back."
Yue Yanran took it and agreed. She still liked reading very much.
Everyone was present, Yue Yanran was comforted, and they finally set off.
Four carriages and more than a dozen horses set off together. The team was quite large. After walking a mile out of the city gate, they stopped at a small tea stall to drink tea and rest, waiting for the people arranged by Xiao Mubei to send Sun Shaozhen out.
Sure enough, about half an hour later, an inconspicuous carriage left the city and stopped next to the small tea stall. The coachman helped a tightly wrapped woman out from inside and sat with Chu Yunxi and her group.
After drinking tea for a while, Chu Yunxi and the others stood up, paid the bill, and shouted to get on their own carriages to leave. The two men also stood up to pay the bill at the same time. Amid the crowd, Sun Shaozhen was sent to Chu Yunxi's carriage without a trace.
After the group left, Sun Shaozhen lifted the headscarf on her head, revealing a tearful face.
"Sister Princess, from now on I will no longer have a father and a mother."
