Chapter 79 Departure
A few days later, on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, Yu Zhi and Ye Qinghuan were preparing to leave for Beiliang Mansion.
Also traveling with him was Wang Dafu, a member of the Baihu family.
Wang Dafu had a grimace on his face, feeling unwilling to do so in his heart, but he could not disobey Qiu Ruoruo's order.
Yu Zhi looked at Wang Dafu with a sad face not far away, turned to Qiu Ruoruo and said: "Ruoruo, Qing Huan and I can go alone. Wang Dafu asked him to stay in Kyoto. There are eighty people in his family."
Mother, I have a young daughter waiting for feeding, so there is no need to take risks with me."
"There is an eighty-year-old mother above, and a young girl at the bottom waiting to be fed?" Qiu Ruoruo looked at Wang Dafu with sharp eyes.
Wang Dafu, who felt guilty, immediately turned his head and avoided Qiu Ruoruo's gaze.
Whether Yu Zhi knows about his family situation, it is impossible for Qiu Ruoruo not to know. Without thoroughly investigating Wang Dafu's family background, how can Qiu Ruoruo feel comfortable letting Wang Dafu follow Yu Zhi.
"Brother Xiaoyu, just take him with you. Even if he can't help you much, he is still useful for serving you and Brother Ye and running errands." Qiu Ruoruo said.
Yu Zhi couldn't resist Qiu Ruoruo and said helplessly: "Okay. Let's go then. Don't miss us too much."
Qiu Ruoruo hugged Yu Zhi and said coquettishly: "Brother Xiaoyu, how about you take me with you? I also want to go with you. I haven't been to Beiliang Mansion yet?"
Yu Zhi stretched out his hand and put his index finger on Qiu Ruoruo's forehead, pulling away from her.
"Come here. If I abduct you, your grandfather and your father will have to kill me. Alas, by then I won't even have a place to live in Qiu Mansion."
"Huh, stinky brother." Qiu Ruoruo let go of Yu Zhi's arm and turned to ask Ye Qinghuan for help, "Brother Ye..."
Before he could speak, Ye Qinghuan interrupted: "This trip is dangerous, not just a sightseeing tour. I heard from Yu Zhi."
"Humph!" Qiu Ruoruo stamped her feet and ran back to Qiu Mansion.
Yu Zhi shook his head helplessly, mounted his horse and rode toward the city gate.
The fifteenth day of the first lunar month was the time for reunion, and Jiang Qing did not urge Yu Zhi on the matter of investigating Cangshan.
But Yu Zhi still felt that if he set off as early as possible, he could reach Beiliang Mansion earlier and find the miracle doctor Granny earlier to heal Li Wantong's legs.
Three people and three horses left the north gate of Kyoto and headed for Beiliang Mansion, but Yu Zhi went east first.
"Master Yu, this is not the way to Beiliang Mansion. Where are we going?" Wang Dafu asked.
Yu Zhi was riding a horse, chewing candied fruit in his mouth, and said, "Go pick up someone first."
Behind the three people, a man in black wearing a bamboo hat and a scholar under the city gate were looking at Yu Zhi's retreating figure.
The man in black was the person who Li Haomiao arranged to train Yu Zhi's skills, and the scholar was also the third gentleman who first sent the assassin to assassinate Yu Zhi.
Mr. Third said: "Li Haomiao has left Kyoto and is heading south. During this trip, Yu Zhi does not have the protection of Li Haomiao, so we can take the opportunity to kill him."
There was a sinister light in Mr. Third's eyes, and the paper fan in his hand was shaking a little faster.
On that day, Yu Zhi put himself in danger and went to the private school to provoke.
This made Mr. Three furious.
In Dachu, no one has ever dared to go to the killer's den to cause trouble, and Yu Zhi is the first one.
The man in black said: "I leave this matter to you, don't break the rules."
Mr. Third sneered: "Li Haomiao has gone south. No one can stop me from killing Yu Zhi. As long as I take action, I will kill him with one blow!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Mr. Third's body trembled suddenly, and a pair of venomous snake-like eyes next to him stared at him, making the hairs on his back stand up.
The man in black said in a cold voice: "Li Haomiao is a person who doesn't follow the rules, because his sword is his rules. But if he knows that you don't follow the rules, what do you think will happen to you?"
Mr. Third's pupils shrank, and his body seemed to be frozen, frozen in place.
Li Haomiao, this is indeed a figure that cannot be ignored.
Twenty years ago, everyone knew that Li Haomiao could reach the tenth-level Grandmaster realm, but they did not expect that Li Haomiao could successfully break through in just a few years.
This is a talent that is unparalleled in the world.
"Since this guy has entered the realm of Grandmaster, why don't you find a place to stay and come to Kyoto to cause trouble?" Mr. Third said viciously and helplessly.
The man in black looked at the direction where Yu Zhi disappeared and said: "You have many killers under your command, it's time to use them. I still say the same thing, don't break the rules. Unless, you are confident to deal with Li Haomiao's revenge."
When Mr. Third heard this, he could only grit his teeth and nod.
Helpless, powerless, unable to refute.
The next moment, the man in black had disappeared at the city gate.
There are many things about the grudges back then. Mr. Three doesn't know about it, but the man in black knows. Because the man in black knows more, he can predict that once many things are committed, there will be unbearable consequences.
Mr. Three also left here immediately.
Soon, the killer world will receive a big order.
It's expensive, but it's extremely easy to place an order. Killers from all walks of life are ready to take action.
.....
At the same time that Yu Zhi and the others left the capital of Dachu, in the imperial city of Dachu, the prince Xiao Jingyao was bidding farewell to his biological mother, the empress.
"Your Majesty, you must be careful on this trip." The queen was worried and had already foreseen the crisis on the road.
Xiao Jingyao held the queen's hand and said comfortingly: "Queen Mother, don't worry, this trip will go smoothly with Lei Chongsong accompanying you."
The queen said: "It is precisely because Lei Chong is accompanying me that I am worried. Your father asked Lei Cong to accompany him precisely because your father also realized the dangers of this trip."
The mother is worried when her son travels thousands of miles.
Even the royal family is like this.
In recent years, the queen has been worried about Xiao Jingyao's position as prince.
The third prince Xiao Jingyu's fierce pursuit threatened the prince's status.
The marriage with the Li family became imminent. With Li Xiuyuan's help, the civil servants in the court would definitely side with the prince.
Xiao Jingyu was assisted by the King of Chu, and most of the generals were under the command of the King of Chu. This power was enough to shake half of the country of Chu.
It is obviously difficult for the prince to successfully succeed to the throne.
"Mother, I will be more careful." Xiao Jingyao promised.
The Queen said: "Your Majesty has the ambition to make great achievements, and the Queen Mother is very happy. Don't worry, the Queen Mother will keep an eye on you here in Kyoto. She will not let others take advantage of her."
Xiao Jingyao smiled bitterly. So far, he has shown that he doesn't care much about the position of Prince of the East Palace.
But he knew that after he became the prince, he would never be able to step back.
Throughout the ages, deposed princes have never had a good ending.
This is a road of no return, a road that must be walked on.
Otherwise, what awaits him is only a miserable second half of his life.
After leaving the imperial city, Xiao Jingyao and his party walked towards the city gate.
A group of four people.
Xiao Jingyao, Wan'er, Lei Xuan, the minister of the royal family, and Yan Zimu, the guard leader of the East Palace.
There are few guards, very few.
"My lord, Lei Zong, this trip has been worthwhile." Xiao Jingyao bowed and thanked him.
Lei Sheng also returned the greeting and said: "Your Highness, you are too polite. Lei was just following orders."
Xiao Jingyao smiled and got into the carriage.
