Chapter 39 White Fish Wang Family

He learned from the boy's mouth that the Wang family's residence was on the main road of the East City. He prepared some small gifts and prepared to go and get some clues from the head of the Wang family.

Although the Wang family is a disbanded family, it is also a famous family that moved from the capital of Cangzhou. Its foundation is not low. Even in the east city of Baiyu Town, it is one of the top families.

The Wang Family Mansion is easy to find, and you can see the wheel hub from a distance on the main road.

Lin Jingzhe walked over, knocked on the scarlet red door of the Wang family's mansion, and waited for the people inside to open the door.

After a moment, the red door slowly opened a crack, and a head dressed like a servant poked out.

"This Taoist priest, who are you looking for?" The owner of the head asked Lin Jingzhe.

"Infinite Heavenly Lord." Lin Lin Jingzhe announced his Taoist name, "The Taoist priest is here to find your master."

"Looking for our master?" The servant frowned and said, "Our master doesn't have any friends dressed as Taoist priests like you."

"You and your master said that it was Wang Shibo's senior brother who came to visit, and he would know."

"Okay, you wait here, I'll go and inform the master."

With a creak, the vermilion door slowly closed.

This servant didn't seem to know a man named Wang Shibo in their house, otherwise he wouldn't have such a strange look on his face.

After a long time, the vermilion door opened again, and this time an old man in his sixties came out.

"Tao, Master, are you Brother Quanzi?" The old man's voice was slightly trembling and his expression was excited.

"Infinite Heavenly Lord, the path is just right." Lin Jingzhe cupped his hands.

"Come in quickly." The old man quickly asked his servants to open the red door, and he went in person to welcome Lin Jingzhe into the palace.

Lin Jingzhe felt flattered and wanted to refuse, but the old man couldn't resist his kindness.

"Taoist Master Lin, please tell me how my dog ​​is doing now. Is he respected by the sect?"

"Senior Brother Wang is very good. He is currently in seclusion. He cannot escape, and I happened to be coming down the mountain, so he asked me to come and say hello to you, old man, and report that I am safe."

Even when she was panicking, Lin Jingzhe always felt flushed and slightly embarrassed.

"That kid is really thoughtful." Perhaps because the old man was thinking about his son so much, he didn't notice anything unusual about Lin Jingzhe.

"Taoist Master Lin, you came here to finish the letter for my son this time. What are your plans after that?"

"I have no plans at the moment, but I want to go to Cangzhou."

"Cangzhou! Oh, it just so happens that I also want to go to Cangzhou. Why don't you, Taoist Lin, come with me?"

"How can this be so embarrassing?"

"What are you sorry for? You are Junior Brother Quanzi. Since Quanzi asked you to come and report for him, he must have a tacit understanding with you. How about I call you Nephew Lin?"

"How embarrassing."

"What's the point of being embarrassed? In the final analysis, I still took advantage of you."

"In that case, let me call you Uncle Wang."

"Very good, very good." The old man's face was full of joy.

That night, the old man held a banquet and revealed Lin Jingzhe's identity to everyone in the clan.

Lin Jingzhe was flattered and panicked.

Although this was not the first time that he had received so much attention, this time was different from last time. This time he told a big lie, and he felt unspeakable and full of guilt.

I learned from the old man that his surname was Wang Yi.

He was originally the Grand Master of Chu State, upright, selfless and upright.

He originally had a bright future, but because of his upright and selfless character above the court, he would always take a turn for the worse in every situation, offending many people.

Later, he was harmed by a traitor and was forced to dismiss from office. This lasted for ten years.

This time when he went to Cangzhou, he was also invited by the king of Chu to enter the palace to listen to the announcement and restore his official rank.

This wait lasted for ten years. He originally didn't want to go, but because the war between Chu State and the neighboring Song State was tense, and he was a patriot, how could he not go?

If it were peace, he would have refused to enter the palace to listen to the announcement, but the war was tense and Chu State was suffering losses one after another. It was precisely because Chu State lacked talents that he thought of him, an old man who had retired from office for ten years.

Baiyu Town and Cangzhou were thousands of miles apart, and the road was far away, and the imperial court's summons had only arrived a few days ago. He hurriedly summoned his tribesmen, prepared all the necessary supplies for the journey, and rushed to the capital in a few days.

Although the Wang family is a large family, there are only a few people related to Zhengzhi. Except for Wang Shibo, who is the eldest son, Wang Yi only has a daughter and a younger son.

Wang Yi is the head of the royal family and has two younger brothers. His younger brothers have three sons and three daughters.

Others are side branches. Although they also have the surname Wang, they cannot live in the Wang family's mansion.

The move to Ducheng this time was not a relocation of the whole family, but the second brother Wang Yi and other legitimate blood relatives were left behind to garrison in Baiyu Town.

Not all the side branches have moved to Cangzhou. After all, the Wang family has been stationed in Baiyu Town for more than ten years and has left some foundations, which still need to be taken care of by manpower.

There are about a hundred people there, but servants, maids and guards account for more than half of them.

After all, a journey of thousands of miles still requires the conduct of servants. We cannot let the noble Wang clan members handle their needs by themselves.

Lin Jingzhe was put into a separate carriage, and Wang Yi sent a maid to take care of him.

He originally wanted to refuse, but he thought that he would definitely encounter the informants of the three unknown enemies along the way, and it was not appropriate for him to show up too much, so he accepted Wang Yi's arrangement.

The maid's name is Xiaoli. She is small, cute, and well-behaved. She is a real-life little loli.

Although Xiaoli looks short and has a loli face, she is actually sixteen years old.

However, in her work, she is hard-working and taciturn, which seems to be very inconsistent with her external image.

Perhaps due to the unfamiliarity, as she gradually became familiar with the situation, Lin Jingzhe felt that she talked more, and from time to time she would scratch her face and ask questions.

Lin Jingzhe was a little confused about her habitual action of grabbing her little face, but she didn't ask.

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, three days have passed.

Perhaps the team was too long. In three days, they could only walk fifty miles slowly. If they kept going at this speed, it would take more than half a year to reach Cangzhou City, which is thousands of miles away.

Lin Jingzhe originally wanted to suggest that Wang Yi cut down half of his people, but it was inappropriate to suggest it in his current capacity, so he gave up for the time being.

Ten days later, the team traveled another hundred miles and arrived at a mountain city called Feilong City.

The thousand-mile journey from Baiyu Town to Cangzhou City will only pass through three towns, and Feilong City is the first one.

After passing Feilong City, there is a vast two hundred miles of desert in front of you, covered with yellow sand and no one is home.

In the desert, water resources are extremely important, so Wang Yi asked people to purchase a large amount of water sources in Feilong City and put them in seven or eight horses for preparation.

The team rested in Feilong City for one night, and the next day, the genius was gray and shiny, and it was already started.

When traveling long distances, it is generally the slaves and maids who have the hard work. They cannot sit in a noble carriage like their masters, nor can they take turns to ride on horses like servants. Instead, they rely on a pair of feet. The difficulty lies in

Walking on the ground.

Even if you are exhausted, you can only hold on. If you fall ill along the way, you may be thrown away directly. Life or death depends on it.

However, if the maids and servants have a close relationship with the master's family and get the consent of the master's family, they can also ride in the spacious carriage.

Xiaoli is very lucky because her current employer is a young Taoist priest who has no airs or temper.

Originally, she refused to let the two of them live in the same carriage. After all, it was inconvenient to live alone with only one man and one woman. However, after only a few days of walking, she felt unsatisfied and began to feel swollen.

She had no choice but to bite the bullet and move into the same carriage.

Only after living in the carriage could she take a closer look at the young Taoist priest.

Although the Taoist priest has a long beard, his appearance is extremely handsome. The expression between his eyebrows is raised and free and easy. There is a vague feeling that he is not like a Taoist master in this mortal world.

Xiaoli's face turned red. Although she had been able to chat with the handsome Taoist priest in front of her a few days ago, she had never seen him so close.

"It turns out he looks so good even when sleeping." Xiaoli couldn't help but feel restless in her heart.

Since Lin Jingzhe invited her into the carriage, he no longer moved or stretched his legs casually. After all, any excessive movement on his part might scare this lolita girl.

He didn't know what the little maid was thinking at this time. After all, as soon as he closed his eyes, he would settle into the yin and yang of the chaos.

As soon as he closed his eyes, the day and night passed.

Xiaoli felt curious. He didn't eat or drink all day and night, and he didn't even move his body. His expression didn't even feel tired at all. Her curiosity aroused, and she murmured in her heart: How did he do this?

So, she gained courage and tried to ask: "Master, do you need water or food?"

Lin Jingzhe withdrew his consciousness, did not open his eyes, and just nodded.

"Xiaoli will go over and prepare for the real person." Xiaoli felt happy in her heart, and unconsciously grabbed the baby's fat cheeks with her hands, thinking to herself: As long as the master she serves still needs her services, she will not be

People abandoned it and wandered into the wilderness.

Just when she was about to open the hood of the car happily, someone suddenly grabbed her arm behind her and with a sudden pull, her entire body fell on a broad chest.

"You, what are you going to do?" Xiaoli's face turned red, and her heart was beating suddenly, as if she was pretending to be a rabbit and might run out at any time.

"Stay there, don't talk." Lin Jingzhe's bright eyes were shining brightly in the dark carriage.

"Fa, what happened?"

"Shh, don't talk." Lin Jingzhe said slowly: "We are being targeted."

"Being, being targeted?" Xiaoli's pretty face turned red and white, "Being, being targeted by what?"

"Horse thief."

"ah…"

"Keep your voice down." Lin Jingzhe quickly reached out and blocked her mouth, saying, "If you don't want to die, just shut up."

"You, you need to go out."

"No, they should be able to deal with it." Lin Jingzhe directly vetoed it. He couldn't take action casually. If the eyes of those three people were really attracted, these people would really be annihilated in less than a breath, and even a piece of them would be wiped out.

No ashes will be left.

"Then, since the master's family can deal with it, why can't we show up?"

"They have archers who are looking for targets. If you step out this time, you will definitely attract the secret archers to attack us. After all, you are just a maid. In their eyes, if a maid dies, the Wang family will definitely not

I feel bad." Lin Jingzhe explained to him.

"I see, that's it. I thought you did it on purpose." Xiaoli's face turned red, like a ripe apple.

Lin Jingzhe rubbed her nose and felt ashamed. She just stretched out her hand to pull her. In her opinion, he was deliberately taking advantage of her.

What is this little loli thinking about all day long?

"Whoosh!"

At this moment, a sound broke through the air, followed by a scream, and a servant rolled down from the horse. After a few tossing, there was no movement.

Wheel, wheel.
