Chapter 43 This Zhuangzi's Servant Also Likes to Brag
Time is like a butcher's knife, you can't see it but you can't touch it.
The 5th day passed quietly.
On these 5 days, Sun Simiao and his party returned to their residence in Zhongnan Mountain, emptied out all their belongings, and returned to Zhaojiazhuang.
Most of the things I moved this time were some medicinal materials and books and documents that I had accumulated over the years.
After combing through these documents, I began to devote myself wholeheartedly to my work!
Du Ruhui's body gradually recovered after the past few days of conditioning.
I had suffered some injuries before, and I took some special medicine under Zhao Mu's arrangement, and I am slowly recovering.
I am a man of the rivers and lakes. How can I not get stabbed when I am drifting in the rivers and lakes?
How can you be called a child of the world without any injuries on your body?
besides,
I just wander around this medicine shop every day, trying to take good care of myself as soon as possible, so that I can return to the palace to serve His Majesty and do my best for His Majesty!
...
"Those people set off for Luoyang a few days ago."
The group of people arranged by Li Er rushed to Bingzhou. They originally planned to keep a close eye on the Turks in Bingzhou, but who knew that after receiving the news, the Turks had already rushed to Luoyang.
"This is really unreasonable. What on earth are these hateful Turks trying to do?
Send me the order to rush to Luoyang as soon as possible!"
Drive, drive, drive.
"Brother, it is said that Luoyang was a very large city in the Tang Dynasty, comparable in size to Chang'an City.
The girl from Luoyang is as beautiful as a flower. Brothers, when we go to Luoyang, we must look cool and elegant!"
The Turkic villain ran quickly in front, followed closely by Datang's group.
The leading Turkic prince glanced at the two of them.
"Okay, this time when we get to Luoyang, if you encounter someone who doesn't have eyesight, you can hurt them, but you can't kill.
If these Tang people get angry, we alone may not be able to get out of Luoyang City."
In the cities they passed along the way, the things they did were seen in the eyes of the Tang people, and everyone's eyes wanted to eat them alive.
"Tch, it's okay if we do it. The Tang people are weak and no one dares to step forward."
"Okay, listen to me."
"yes, Sir."
After such a long time, the news has probably reached Chang'an City.
Next, they also had to restrain themselves. Although they were not afraid of the Tang people, if they were alone, they would not know how to die if they were caught in the middle of the road.
I really want to have a good time. I can have as much fun as I want when they complete their mission and return to the Turks to completely conquer the Tang Dynasty.
Drive, drive, drive.
Zhaojiazhuang.
Now that Du Ruhui's health is getting better and better, in addition to wandering around the medicine shop, he has begun to expand his scope and wander around the entire Zhuangzi.
Except for some places in the entire Zhaojiazhuang, people are not allowed to enter at will, but most places can be strolled around at will.
Zhao Mu arranged for an entourage to accompany him and take him for a stroll.
As I walked, I came to the blacksmith shop.
Standing at the door, I could only hear the sound of clanging and hammering coming from inside.
There were servants leading several horses and walked into the blacksmith shop one by one. Du Ruhui was confused when he saw everything in front of him.
This is just blacksmithing. What's the point of bringing a horse in?
"In front of the wooden accounting room is the blacksmith shop. Our Zhuangzi has regulations that outsiders are not allowed to enter the blacksmith shop at will."
Seeing the confused look on his face, the servant accompanying him spoke out.
Although everyone knows his identity as a cashier, their shopkeeper Li is a brother-in-law to his young master.
But you can't enter at will without the young master's permission.
"When I saw this blacksmith shop, I was just curious. What is the purpose of bringing a horse into your Zhuangzi's blacksmith shop?"
The main reason is that there is no necessary connection between horses and the blacksmith shop, so it is not confusing.
"That's Zhuangzi. Our horses need to be re-shoeed. Every summer and winter, all horses must be re-shoeed.
In more than half a year, this horseshoe will wear out."
Zhao Mu has issued strict orders on some matters and does not allow anyone in Zhuangzi to disclose them to the outside world.
However, there are some things that do not restrict everyone from talking in private, including the matter of horseshoes, which everyone has become accustomed to. When Du Ruhui asked, the servant accompanying him also took the opportunity to tell the matter.
Du Ruhui once again wondered what this horseshoe was. He had never heard of it.
He turned his head to look at the accompanying servant and asked his doubts again. The servant shook his head.
"I don't even know what this horseshoe is, but I heard the big guys say so.
It is said that these shoes are worn on horses. As long as the horses are equipped with horseshoes, the horses' hoofs will not be injured even if they step on hard objects.
This horse can travel thousands of miles in a day, no problem."
Du Ruhui was stunned when he heard this, and shook his head helplessly in his heart.
Horses wear shoes, nonsense.
In Zhaojiazhuang, Duke Zhao is extremely powerful. If he says something, he will believe it.
But Zhuangzi's servant was obviously a bit bragging.
Of course, I felt relieved when I thought about it. Maybe they had been in Zhuangzi all this time and didn't know the world outside.
Even the 800-mile express, which is said to be the fastest in the Tang Dynasty, always arranges a post station hundreds of miles along the way to make it easier for the messengers to change horses and people.
Traveling thousands of miles in a day, let alone a human being, even a horse cannot carry it with its legs.
"Hahahaha, good brother, good brother, I, Lao Li, am here."
It's still the same, I haven't seen him, I only heard his voice.
Du Ruhui, who had already left the blacksmith shop, came to the courtyard of Zhaojiazhuang and met His Majesty face to face!
Du Ruhui was very excited when he saw His Majesty in front of him.
After getting to know each other over the past few days, he also understood how dangerous his condition was that day.
If it weren't for the current Saint, my life would really have to be explained.
His Majesty went to his residence in person and arranged for someone to carry him to a carriage. Changsun Wuji drove the carriage and arrived at Zhaojiazhuang for treatment.
At the same time, she has been guarding him for such a long time. There is no way to repay this kindness, except to swear loyalty to the death!
And his eldest grandson, Wuji, owed him another favor.
master!
Seeing Du Ruhui on the side, Li Er hurried over.
He stepped forward and touched his body, with joy on his face.
"Accountant Du, there are a lot of things going on in Chang'an City these days, and I haven't come over to see you. How is your health now?"
"Thank you, Master, for your concern. My body is resting peacefully here, Mr. Zhao, and is as good as ever.
The doctor has already checked it with me, and I can go back to Chang'an at any time."
"Hahahaha, okay, okay."
Li Er happily stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder.
"You don't know, I'm really not used to not having you by my side.
Since your health has recovered, then come back to Chang'an City with us tomorrow morning!"
