Chapter 157 Then
At the same time, Shen Lingzhu fed Mr. Han the medicine and told him about meeting Shi Wulang again.
"Xiao Zhuzi, don't let Mr. Han worry." Shen Xianzhu looked at his sister disapprovingly. Mr. Han's departure time was postponed because of the recurrence of an old injury he suffered when he suppressed a rebellion many years ago.
In addition, on the first day after leaving Bingzhou, the escorts did not dare to let him go, so he had to walk with the shackles on, so that his body, which had just begun to recover, caught a cold again when the wind blew.
His guards were originally sent by Bingzhou and could not travel with him.
The only one he brought out from his hometown was not with him because he was sent to the capital to deliver important evidence a few days ago.
"It's okay, I slept too long today, and now is the perfect time to think.
Why is Shi Wulang here when he hasn't been transferred yet?" Mr. Han thought of something and asked, "He didn't cause you any trouble, did he?"
"No, but he has a bad look in his eyes. He once even contacted Erlu and Damao and tried to kidnap my sister and me." Following his elder brother's suggestion, Shen Lingzhu did not mention Shi Wu's entry into the palace in Bingzhou.
Mr. Han said, “It seems that he still remembers you.
The Shi family always holds grudges. You and your eldest brother shouldn't go back to your car for now. Wait until Pingding arrives and see where he goes. "
Shen Xianzhu disagreed: "Sir, there's no point in avoiding him now. He's serving in the Shenwu Guards, very close to Shun County. If he has any bad intentions, he'll definitely ask for our address."
"Brother, what the master means is that he is worried that he will do something bad to Uncle Seven and the others along the way.
After all, he's the Duke's nephew. If he gives us a little trouble at the tax gate, he might be fine, but several truckloads of goods might be seized. "Don't forget, we have a lot of goods on our truck. If they say they'll collect taxes, they can give them some time to seize their goods."
Shen Xianzhu frowned: "He dares to openly find someone to embarrass us?"
Shen Lingzhu asked in return, "Isn't he now openly living in the post station?
The Shi family has many brothers. If he just casually reports someone else's name with the Duke's Mansion's fire card, who would go to the capital to check him out?"
Mr. Han nodded repeatedly after hearing this: "He must be upset because Miss Shen is still safe and sound.
If you want to do something irrational again, there will be people around you to dispatch you.
If you stay by my side, he won't dare confront me, and there won't be any more trouble."
When Shen Xianzhu heard that it concerned his sister's safety, he immediately agreed, but he needed to go to the inn not far away to reply to everyone.
Shen Lingzhu did not suggest that he go, but took out charcoal pencil and paper from his backpack, wrote a letter and showed it outside the gate.
Seeing that his uncle and Li Laojunhu were still waiting for him and his sister at the door of the inn, he immediately went to the kitchen to ask a handyman from the post station to deliver the letter to his uncle.
After reading the letter, Huang Zongqi went to the post station to make sure the two children were okay.
Li Laojun dissuaded him, saying, "Don't go through the main gate. Mr. Han will be assigned to the skirt room in the far corner while he's in custody.
We entered through the back door. Miss Shen thoughtfully wrote down the name of the person who had just delivered the letter, so that we could use this person to find her."
"The two children only had a brief encounter with him and then didn't dare to come back.
That person must have done something." Huang Zongqi was still worried after receiving Xiao Zhuzi's letter.
Li Laojun knew that he was worried and confused, and he was still worried even though the letter had already written what happened.
Moreover, it was impossible for Shi Wulang to do anything at the post station in such a short time because Mr. Han was there.
Moreover, with the Jinyiwei from the capital escorting him, Shi Wulang, who had secretly crossed the border, did not dare to make any big moves.
This is indeed the case. Shi Wu's guards presented various realistic reasons, saying that there is still a long time to go and that they can do whatever they want after returning to Baozhou.
Shi Wulang took it to heart. He went out this time at the request of his nephew, without telling his uncle, the Duke. If he was caught in the act, he would be in trouble both inside and outside.
He glanced at the guard and said, "Remember this and teach that girl a lesson later.
Since it's hard to kidnap her, why not just cut off one of her legs to prevent her from running too fast and jumping around? "
"Yes, I will definitely make proper arrangements." The guard didn't dare to say that he would show up in person, because she recognized him when he bought donkey meat at Shenquan Market last time.
Shi Wulang raised his hand to drive him away: "If you can't even do such a small thing, don't stay with me anymore."
"Yes." The guard quickly retreated, then hesitated for a moment and asked the people at the post station where Mr. Han and his party were staying.
When he learned that they were divided into two groups, one living in the upper house and the other living in the podium in the corner, he went towards the podium without hesitation.
As luck would have it, I met Shen Lingzhu again when she came to send my uncle back.
But when he saw a figure in the distance, he turned around without even looking at Shen Lingzhu, only to hear the little girl behind him say four words: "Shenwu Right Guard."
He turned around again, staring at Shen Lingzhu and his sister, and said to them one by one: "Be careful what you say."
After saying that, he left quickly, thinking that the Fifth Young Master had done her no harm by targeting this little girl, he was really good at finding people's sore spots.
"Xiao Zhuzi, why did you stab him?" Shen Xianzhu waited for the Shi family guards to leave and tapped his sister's head with his index finger.
Shen Lingzhu said: "He must have come to find us to test our strength.
We've been enemies for a long time anyway, so I'm not afraid of saying one more thing."
Shen Xianzhu: "Aren't you afraid that he will beat you with a black stick?"
"He, doesn't dare." Shen Lingzhu raised his chin and asked the school guard guarding Mr. Han's door, "There is..."
Shen Xianzhu couldn't help but shake his head and laugh. He slept very uneasily that night. The result of having several nightmares was that he woke up late in the morning.
After waking up, he heard Xiao Zhuzi talking to Uncle Huang outside the door. He thought to himself, didn’t they agree not to contact each other for the time being?
Shen Xianzhu got up, dressed and opened the door very quickly. This time, he saw not only Uncle Huang, but also Uncle Seventh.
He asked hurriedly, "Why are you all here?"
"The Shi family left before dawn." Shen Lingzhu said with a smile: "I heard that it was someone Mr. Han hired who walked around the upper room several times yesterday."
The leader being escorted must not be from the line of Duke Zhongguo, otherwise Shi Wu would not have been scared away.
She would count the number of people escorting the officials after they set off. If there were fewer, there was a 99% chance that they were secretly following Shi Wu.
"Let's leave later today and keep some distance from them." Uncle Huang was worried all night, but fortunately, Xiao Zhuzi came to him early in the morning and said that the alarm had been lifted.
Unfortunately, he was willing, but the escorts were not, as they needed to arrive in the capital within the specified time.
So after breakfast, everyone went to work as usual, and nothing unexpected happened throughout the day.
Even the number of Jinyiwei counted by Shen Lingzhu was not missing a single one. She took advantage of lunch to ask Mr. Han for advice.
The latter told her: "Their mission is to escort me to Beijing safely. It is not appropriate to assign them other tasks."
Upon hearing this, Shen Lingzhu asked again: "So, have they seen Shi Wulang?
Will there be a chance in the future to expose Shi Wuwu's trespassing to his face?"
