After a few more days, the carriage arrived at Xucheng, a big city guarded by soldiers. The people who entered the city had to be checked one by one. It was because the line was so long that they could not enter the city until it was dark.
Gu Chunzhu took the carefully placed paper and handed it to Su Wangqin. "Brother Wang, take this and ask if we can go in ahead of time."
Su Wangqin took the document and jumped out of the carriage and went to the city gate to ask. The soldier carefully looked through the document and saw the seal of the county magistrate of Taiping County. He nodded to signal that they could go through the side door.
Although it's a disorderly queue jumping, Gu Chunzhu, without blinking his eyelids, sits on the carriage and moves slowly towards the side door. When he passed the soldier, Gu Chunzhu called to stop, jumped out of the carriage, rushed to the soldier and asked, "I want to ask you something, brother. My son has been abducted. He is a very handsome young man, just 14 years old, about this tall. A pair of Phoenix eyes have grown. You should have seen them when you are checking people here every day. "
"No, I have been on duty for the past ten days. If it's such a handsome boy as you said, I can't remember it." The soldier shook his head and said to Gu Chunzhu, because she had documents to say a few more words, there are many people waiting to go to the city, and there is not much time to deal with Gu Chunzhu.
Gu Chunzhu noticed that she was looked at by all the lines of sight in the queue. She had no time to care for others, and climbed back to the car with a gloomy look. Aunt Miao helped her to sit steadily and asked, "master, is there no news?"
"No news. Hasn't Xiao Cheng been taken to the capital?" Gu Chunzhu twisted the willow eyebrows, and his face was very dignified.
Su Wangqin, who was driving outside, heard his wife's worry and said loudly: "there are many ways to transport people in the world. If Xiao Cheng walked in with a big swagger, the soldiers would remember it, but if he was lying in the car. Soldiers like us who have documents don't need to be checked, let alone other soldiers who have brought some keepsakes. "
Su Wangqin is implying that there are three princes' keepsake to take Xiaocheng away. Naturally, it is unimpeded to pass through Xucheng.
It's good to go in the direction of the capital. At least he didn't go to the wrong place. Gu Chunzhu was relieved.
"Then brother Wang, how do you think they did it?"
"Just tell me what I know. When the imperial court was escorting a corrupt official, it hid him in the coffin and carried him back to the country, so as to bring him back. Some of them are hidden in waterways and some of them are hidden in cabins. " Su Wangqin sat in front of the carriage and talked freely. He hadn't talked about these things for a long time, but he was also bold and heroic.
Ann listened in the carriage and said with emotion, "dad knows a lot. Then we can find my brother."
"I hope they are on the same official road with us. If they go by the water, they can only find it in the capital." Gu Chunzhu frowned deeply. If we wait for the capital, things will naturally become more complicated.
Mrs. Miao is also secretly surprised when she listens to her. Unexpectedly, her husband, who looks at the ordinary man with a broken leg, has so much insight. It's hard not to be anonymous in Ping'an County. It's too good to hide. Thinking of Mrs. Su at home, she always feels a little touchy.
The carriage entered Xucheng slowly. Xucheng is a big city, which looks very rich and bustling.
Su Wangqin slowed down the carriage, jumped down and lifted the curtain of the carriage and said to Gu Chunzhu, "look at the red clouds coming out. It's better to make some supplies in Xucheng. Then we'll go on the road as soon as it's bright tomorrow."
"Good." Gu Chunzhu answered.
I'm tired of eating steamed bread these days. The food in the inn is very expensive. Today, I can go to the stall outside to eat some while it's still early. She can smell mutton noodles at the tip of her nose.
After looking for the inn, Su Wangqin took the carriage to the backyard, ordered two ordinary rooms, and the family went out to buy food. After eating in the mutton noodle shop that Gu Chunzhu had been looking forward to for a long time, he went to the market to buy meat, egg and rice. With the pot on the carriage, there was no place to eat in the desolate land to cook and eat, because the eggs were fragile, only a few were bought.
In the evening, when they returned to the inn for a rest, a figure searched the inns, touched the inn, saw the carriage and left contentedly.
When the next morning was still dark and foggy, they set out. Madame Miao is an An'an who sleeps in one room and climbs into the carriage with An'an still sleepy on her back.
It took about an hour for the carriage to arrive at the end of Xucheng. It can be seen that Xucheng is really big.
At the same time, I also need to give documents when I leave Xucheng. When the carriage slowly stops to look for documents, a young woman suddenly comes out. She looks dirty. She tightly grasps the carriage door and says, "would you please take me out of the city? My mother is ill and needs to find a doctor. I don't know how long the line will take."
Gu Chunzhu is holding the document in his hand, but this young woman is looking at it.
This young woman is holding a woman with gray hair. She looks dirty on her body, and her eyes are a little chaotic, like some silly."Spring bamboo?" Su Wangqin asked her.
Gu Chunzhu could not understand the meaning of this good old man. She felt that the two mothers and daughters who came out were always suspicious. How could they just seize their own carriage? There are many carriages going out of the city every day.
She was thinking about it, and ANN on the other side said, "Mom, they are so poor. This grandma looks very sick. Otherwise, we will let them get in the car and take them for a ride."
An'an all opened his mouth, and Gu Chunzhu could not wipe out the kindness of the child, so he said, "we are going to the direction of the capital, can you go along?"
"By the way." The young woman nodded like a chicken pecking at rice, and the gray haired woman she was wearing didn't say a word, just giggled.
"Then we will take you to the next town, and you will leave on your own." Gu Chunzhu said that this also reduced the time for them to queue out of the city, which was a good move.
The young woman slightly drooped her eyes, which seemed to flash past her discontent, but when she looked up, she was already smiling. Gu Chunzhu thought she was wrong.
After the two women got on the bus, there was a bad smell in the carriage. It was from the young woman. Gu Chunzhu looked strange, but didn't say much.
"What are you doing in the capital? Are you visiting relatives?" Asked the young woman sitting in the carriage.
Madame Miao smiled, and Gu Chunzhu didn't dare to talk before she did.
When Ann saw no one to answer, she said honestly, "go to my brother."
"Oh, that's it. I'm sorry to trouble you." The young woman's mind turned away. Her brother was in the capital and her home was supposed to be in the capital. Then she didn't ask any questions. She seemed to be tired and took a nap in the carriage.
