At this moment, on the outskirts of Shangjing City, among the lush mountains and lush trees, everything should have been completely silent, but suddenly there was a sound of laughter that resounded through the jungle.
This sound startled the black and white birds.
The birds were hovering in the air, waving their wings, looking down, wailing, and looking frightened.
Below them is a large group of connected tombs. In front of each tomb is a crystal clear white marble tombstone, like small mountains.
It's a pity that despite the endless life outside, there is only a heavy air of death among the tombstones.
The one who laughed was a young man with disheveled hair. In front of the man was a white jade bowl with unburned brass paper money in it.
Wearing a string of black Buddhist beads on his hand, there are densely packed scriptures engraved on it.
If one ignores the madness on his face, he will definitely be praised as a filial young man.
It's a pity...that smile is so incompatible with this solemn tomb.
After laughing enough, the young man took a deep breath, widened his eyes, took out a letter from the palm holding the Buddha bead, and read it carefully again, and the curvature of the corners of his mouth widened little by little.
In the end, I couldn't help but laugh again.
The crow was startled again.
Maybe he laughed too much, and the ashes of the burned brass paper scattered into the air. The young man was stunned for a moment, coughed violently, and tears filled the corners of his eyes.
But even so, the curvature of the corners of his mouth never dropped.
Slowly putting the things in his hands into the fire pot, watching the fire snake spread instantly and swallowing the white envelope, the young man reached out to wipe the tears from the corners of his eyes, and then the smile on his face faded.
There is no way to heaven if you don’t take it, and there is no door to hell if you don’t go there.
Zhang Qingjiu, if you dare to go to Yongzhou, you must be prepared to never return.
This day was finally what he had been waiting for...
In Prince Jing's Mansion, when Chu Xun received this letter, he was one day later than Chu Lan.
It's not that Yunque followed Zhang Qingjiu's request and sent him over late again, but...
After reading the contents of the letter, Chu Xun frowned instantly and turned to ask the servant in the mansion, "Do you know how long Mr. Xiao Zhang has been there?"
Thinking of the night before yesterday, Chu Xun suddenly left the house and did not return until today. The boy replied respectfully, "This letter was sent by Mr. Xiao Zhang's maid at midnight yesterday. The maid said that when this letter was sent, her family
The master has been gone for six hours."
Did you go there at that time?
Chu Xun frowned even more.
"Master, what's wrong?" Seeing Chu Xun's serious look, the boy couldn't help but ask.
She left the night before yesterday, and Zhang Tailiu disappeared the night before. Could it be such a coincidence?
"Nothing." Chu Xun took a deep breath, took the letter and looked at it carefully, and couldn't help but sneered, "This girl does know that she cares about her mother."
It's just that...he needs to hurry up about Zhang Tailiu's escape.
Thinking that that person could escape under his nose, Chu Xun couldn't help but feel a little more uneasy. He narrowed his eyes and put away the message, "First send some people to protect the Wei Mansion, and then follow me."
A trip to the East Palace."
He still had to talk to his precious nephew about this matter.
After all, he caught the person, but he escaped from his own hands.
"East Palace?" The young man frowned, with a strange look on his face, "His Royal Highness, you also left the capital early this morning. In the court today, Your Majesty said that you sent His Highness the Prince to Yongzhou City."
After saying this, Chu Xun's eyes suddenly widened, "What are these two doing? They are all going to Yongzhou. Yongzhou is flooded now. They are not allowed to travel around the mountains and rivers to fall in love!"
The young man was so shocked by Chu Xun's words that he didn't dare to say anything for a long time. What about traveling around the mountains and rivers, or talking about love?
But Chu Xun seemed extremely angry and continued: "I can still find someone to protect one of them, but if both of them go, do you really think you are going to make dumplings?"
He also heard about the flood in Yongzhou. If Zhangtai Liu had not been lost, he should have gone to the palace to discuss the matter with his brother.
Before Zhang Tailiu escaped, he originally thought about going to Yongzhou by himself.
Who knows...
Taking a deep breath, Chu Xun slammed his palm on the desk.
He was angry that the two juniors were young and energetic and acted easily.
But isn't he angry with himself...
The boy, who had not seen his master so angry for many years, took a cautious step back.
Could he have heard something he shouldn't have heard, and would he be silenced soon?
He doesn't want it, he's not married yet, he doesn't have a baby...
It can be seen that Chu Xun was still angry for a long time and had not come back to his senses. The boy couldn't help but swallowed his saliva and stepped forward cautiously, "Your Highness, there is no need to be so worried. This subordinate remembers the flood in Qianzhou two years ago, and the prince also
His Highness went to govern and appease the people. His Highness the Crown Prince was only seventeen years old at that time, but he did it in an orderly manner, and the people praised him along the way."
"The land in Qianzhou has been flooded so many times, how can it compare with Yongzhou." Chu Xun took a deep breath and frowned fiercely into the character "Chuan".
The boy was so frightened that he didn't dare to breathe.
The room suddenly became quiet, and Chu Xun began to pace back and forth.
Zhang Tailiu has not been found since he escaped. He doesn't know where he is hiding at the moment. Whether it is because of him or Zhang Qingjiu's letter, he cannot leave Shangjing.
What he can do now...
Chu Xun narrowed his eyes, turned around and ordered, "Take the third picture from the third box from the left on the fifth floor of the cabinet, seal it, and have someone hurry up and send it to that girl... to His Highness the Crown Prince.
"
At the end, Chu Xun almost gritted his teeth.
What a stinky girl, she can run so fast! It’s only three days and three nights’ journey from Yongzhou to the capital city. Now she is afraid that she has reached the boundary of Yongzhou...
The young man followed the order, and when he could clearly see what he had prepared, he couldn't help but frowned, "Your Highness, the terrain of Yongzhou is comparable to a map. His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and Lord Xiao Zhang must have brought it with them."
What does it mean to give something they have? Could it be that my master made a mistake?
When the boy questioned him like this, Chu Xun couldn't help but grind his back molars, "Who said this is the same as what they have?"
In the past few years, he has been traveling and made many capable people and friends from all over the world. One of them lives in Qianzhou, with Yongzhou at his back. He likes to travel all over the mountains and rivers and draw maps.
And this good friend just sent him a letter a few days ago. There were very few words in the letter: Strangely enough, the mountains of Yongzhou seem to have more than one hill.
Accompanying the letter was this map of the topography of Yongzhou that he had re-drawn.
He looked at it and found that it was indeed very different from the drawings stored in the palace in his memory.
Before he had time to send a palace letter to Chu Wei to explain the situation, things happened one after another, leaving him no time to take care of it.
