Chapter 822: Leaving Beijing, taking the same ride
Di Xin did not get out of the car, but opened the curtains to reveal himself and Song Qianwei. He looked at the approaching soldiers and asked, "Master, what happened? Why is the investigation so strict today?"
"Don't ask what you shouldn't ask."
The soldier said impatiently, and then looked into the carriage.
Although the faces could not be seen clearly due to the light, it could be seen that there were two men in the carriage. Next to them, packed cakes, silks, calligraphy and paintings were neatly placed aside.
It is basically consistent with what the coachman said when he left the city to visit relatives.
But he asked again: "What are you doing out of the city at this time?"
Di Xin answered honestly: "Visiting relatives."
"Where outside the city?"
"Shangba Village, thirty miles away."
"Today is not an important holiday, why did you choose today to visit relatives?"
"My nephew was born a few days ago, so I sent an invitation."
…
When asked and answered, Di Xin seemed to have been fully prepared, and his answers were flawless.
The soldier didn't hear any questions. After asking the last question, he stretched out his hand and said, "Where is your road guide?"
"Here."
Di Xin took out the road guide from his arms and handed it over together with the road guide he took from Song Qianwei.
The people who were knocked unconscious by Di Xin yesterday, except for the waiter at the beginning, will take at least two days to wake up, which means that they are still in a coma. Before these people wake up, except for the government officials
No one in the crowd would notice what was missing from them.
But Mingyue Tower would definitely not dare to hand over their people to the government.
The original guides from Yanque Pass cannot be used, so the two guides that Di Xin handed over now were taken from the Mingyuelou killer who was knocked unconscious by Di Xin when he left the restaurant with Song Qianwei yesterday.
In this era, the owner's birthday and address were written line by line on the road signs, and they were stamped with the government's seal, but they did not even have a portrait printed on them like the identity card on Blue Star.
Therefore, after Di Xin answered all the information on the road guide, the soldiers did not have any doubts.
After checking, he returned the road guide to Di Xin and then signaled to the people behind him to let him go.
"Thank you, sir."
After Di Xin took the road guide, he lowered the car curtain.
Then, the driver got on the carriage and drove the horse slowly towards the outside of the city gate.
Until we left the city gate, there were no other accidents.
…
After the carriage traveled ten miles eastward along the official road, Di Xin's voice sounded in the carriage: "Please stop for a moment."
"Hush!"
The carriage tightened its reins, stopped, and asked with some confusion: "Sir, we only have ten miles of land, is there still a place to go?"
"If you are getting tired, there is a pavilion a mile further. If you go there to rest, you can drink some tea to moisten your throat."
"No."
Di Xin and Song Qianwei got off the carriage and said with a smile: "Just send it here, and we can walk the rest of the way ourselves?"
The groom hesitated: "This place in the wilderness is..."
Di Xin interrupted him directly and said: "Don't worry, the money I should give you will not be less."
He took out money from his purse that was twice the original reward and handed it to the coachman, smiling and saying: "It's just that I have to trouble you to make a few more laps outside before returning to the city."
"It's easy to talk about."
As soon as the money was given, the groom said nothing more.
He could vaguely feel that the two guests in front of him were not going to Shangba Village, but what did this have to do with him, an ordinary civilian?
In any case, there is no coercive relationship between the two of them, and the groom doesn't want to meddle in other people's affairs.
This is the rule in their business, just solicit customers, no matter the reason.
The groom took the money, patted his chest and assured, "Don't worry, sir, I don't know anything."
Very good, very discerning.
Di Xin turned around and left with Song Qianwei, and said: "After you go back, if the soldiers at the city gate still remember you and ask you why you went back so early, just say that you met relatives on the way who came to pick me up."
"Thank you sir."
The groom thanked him, and suddenly found that the two people leaving were only holding cakes in their hands. He quickly shouted: "Two guests, you have left something behind."
Di Xin's voice came from afar: "I've given it all to you. Remember to unpack it before you go back."
This time, the carriage really drove away with a smile on its face.
Regardless of whether he went back early or late, the soldiers guarding the city would not embarrass him, a little horseman, but the silks, calligraphy and paintings left in the carriage were real things.
Although the groom could not estimate the exact price, he also knew that even if he picked out one of these things, its value would only be much more than the silver he had just obtained.
The car dealer needs to take a commission from the remuneration, but the silk, calligraphy and painting all belong to him.
The harvest from this trip was enough to equal his previous income for half a month.
…
The groom started to drive around the official road with an empty carriage, hoping to see if he could pick up a guest who happened to be returning to the city. However, Di Xin and Song Qianwei had already left the official road.
Although Song Qianwei's body has recovered somewhat, she is still not suitable for traveling long distances, and with her current state, she can only get rid of Emperor Xin's hind legs.
If it were any other woman, she would be a little shy when Di Xin proposed to act behind her back, but Song Qianwei is a typical woman in the world, and does not take the conflict between men and women that seriously.
In fact, if Di Xin was not the man she admired, she would still have less hesitation.
Occasionally using the ability to shrink to an inch, Di Xin carried Song Qianwei on his back and headed northwest after leaving the official road.
An hour later, the two people appeared on another official road.
It is the official road after coming out of the north gate of the capital.
After spending a lot of money to buy the passing carriage, Di Xin personally drove the carriage north along the official road.
Song Qianwei sat in the carriage and tried her best to recover from the losses in her body.
…
Three days later, although Song Qianwei's state has not recovered, it has stabilized at the mid-acquired level, and there is no need to worry about further decline.
The damaged foundation required a large amount of medicinal food to recover. The two did not have this condition before returning to Yanque Pass, so Song Qianwei stopped practicing after her state stabilized.
Afterwards, the carriage carriage was dismantled and abandoned, while Di Xin and Song Qianwei rode on the horses.
Even though we were sharing a horse, the speed was still much faster without the drag of the carriage.
Along the way, the two changed horses several times.
I don't know whether it was a tacit understanding or other reasons, but although they changed horses, they did not add another horse.
Until the Taicang Mansion appeared in the distance, the two of them were riding the same horse together.
