I know, the state next door to us is called Hezhou. "

"Nonsense, Hezhou is obviously far away from us!"

"The state to the north of us is called Linzhou..."

……

After Wei Ci listened for a while, he found that out of the dozens of words spoken, not two of them were right.

He held his forehead with a headache and said to Li Zheng, "Li Zheng?"

Li Zheng looked at Wei Ci, thought for a moment, and said: "Son-in-law of the Shen family, this matter needs to be discussed in the long run. I will go to the county magistrate and the master to discuss it. If they are willing to help, we will escape. If they are not willing to help, we will escape." , I have no choice but to think of my own solution. After all, human life is at stake and cannot be ignored."

"Son-in-law of the Shen family, I heard from Daya that you used to run a caravan. You have traveled all over the country for many years, and you must be very familiar with the city of Yan State. I would like to invite you to discuss it together."

"No problem." Wei Ci agreed immediately.

"Everyone, please go back first. I will inform everyone of the results of the discussion at that time." Li Zheng waved his hand and asked everyone to leave first.

"Li Zheng, I have asked my brother to inquire about the rebels. I believe we will know the specific situation tomorrow."

"Ah, it's so dangerous outside. Will there be any danger if you let your brother out?"

"Don't worry Li Zheng. He has been with me for so many years and is very clever. If he doesn't encounter a strong enemy, his life will not be in danger." Wei Ci said.

"I would like to thank your family on behalf of our village." Li Zheng bowed to him.

"In that case," Wei Ci stood up, "then I won't disturb Li Zheng's rest."

After he said that, he stood up, turned around and left Li Zheng's house.

......

In the Shen family, Wei Jiu was processing wood in the yard. When he saw Wei Ci coming back, he quickly stood up and went to greet him, asking: "Master, how is the situation?"

"We'll wait until Wei Yi and the others come back, but I'm afraid we really have to leave here this time." Wei Ci looked ugly.

Before dawn in the morning, Wei Yi and the others returned to Shen's house covered in dew and went back to the wooden house to sleep.

At dawn, Wei Yi woke up. After squinting for a while, he still couldn't sleep well. When it finally dawned, he quickly got up, dressed up, and went to wait in front of his master's door.

When Wei Ci woke up, the golden glow covered the entire horizon. He put on his clothes and gently opened the door. Wei Yi had been waiting for him for a long time. When he saw him coming out, he immediately went to greet him. The two looked at each other, and Wei Yi immediately followed Wei Ci's footsteps.

The two walked through the hallway and out to the front yard.

"Master, it has been found out." Wei Yi saluted Wei Ci, "The rebels are true. They are now entrenched in Shiqing County, which is only a hundred miles away from Anning County. There are about 2 people. They do all kinds of evil. Everywhere they go, no grass grows, and they burn Killing, looting and all kinds of bad things."

There is no grass growing wherever they go, no matter old, young, women or children, they are not spared. Now they have approached us. "Weiyihui reports.

They are just one of the rebels. Now there are rebel teams everywhere, and the imperial court has long existed in name only. Soldiers from all over the country would be killed immediately if they did not join them, which is why the rebel ranks expanded so quickly.

When Wei Ci heard this, his heart skipped a beat, and his eyes instantly became fierce.

He gritted his teeth and said: "I didn't expect this emperor to be so useless. He can't even defend his own country. Wei Er, please send someone to notify the villagers immediately and ask them to pack their things. We must leave here."

"Yes."

"Get Wei Ba." He ordered Wei Jiu.

"Yes."

"Wei Qi, go find out more information and see what the rebels' route is."

"Yes."

......

"Master, what do you want from me?" Wei Ba asked respectfully, kneeling on the ground.

"Is there anything unusual happening in our village these days?"

"Reporting to the young master, there is nothing unusual. Why do you suddenly ask like this?"

"Nothing, go and tell the county magistrate that there are about 2 rebels in Shiqing County now, and ask him to organize the refugees quickly and leave as soon as possible."

"Yes." Wei Ba agreed, turned around and walked out.

"Second sister!" Wei Ci looked at Shen Nan walking over and immediately stopped her.

She knew that Shen Nan, like her sister, was definitely not an ordinary woman. Ah Yue was still in confinement, and she could no longer let her take care of her. She had to handle these things.

When Shen Nan heard the call, he stopped, turned to look at Wei Ci, and asked, "Brother-in-law, why are you calling me?"

"Come here and listen to me explain in detail." Wei Ci waved, and the two of them sat at a small table in the yard. Wei Ci said, "Wei Yi and the others went out to inquire for information last night."

Shen Nan's eyes widened when he heard this, and urged: "How is it? What news did you find out?"

"There are indeed rebels, and their number has reached 2."

"What? So many!"

"Yes, the most important thing is that anyone who does not submit to them will be killed, even women and children."

"Is it true that he is so heartless? This is too bad."

"Well, the rebel leader is a bandit."

"Damn it, killing innocent people like this is worse than a beast."

"Second sister, now I don't have any available troops except Wei Yi and the others, and the rebels are only a hundred miles away from our village. It will be a matter of time before they come over, so I think we have to leave here."

"But the eldest sister is still in confinement, and we have so many things, how are we going to leave? The most important thing is who are we going to go with? If we go together, the goal is too big, and I am afraid it will attract the attention of the rebels." Shen Nan said .

Wei Ci sighed: "This is what I'm worried about too."

"We can ignore the county magistrate and his group, but these people in the village..."

Wei Ci knew that the Shen family had a good relationship with the villagers, so he couldn't decide for them.

Seeing that he didn't know how to speak, Shen Nan said, "I'll go talk to Li Zheng and the others and let them make their own decision."

“We have ten carriages in total, and you brought nine carriages, plus one horse.

My family originally had a two-horse carriage. If it were left, it would probably be able to hold a lot of things, but ten carriages are really too eye-catching. "

Wei Ci pondered for a moment and said, "I have thought of a way, but I don't know if it is feasible."

"What solution?" Shen Nan asked.

Wei Ci told Shen Nan everything he thought in his heart.

"I think it's feasible, but..." Shen Nan hesitated.

Wei Ci smiled and said: "Second sister, you must also know Ah Yue's secret!"

"Huh?" Shen Nan's heart skipped a beat and she looked at Wei Ci with a scrutinizing look in her eyes.

"I know Ah Yue will definitely tell you her secret, so let's get straight to the point now."

"If we put most of the food into Ah Yue's treasure first, we can reduce a lot of luggage. Just bring three horses, and Wei Yi and the others will bring some more."

When Shen Yue heard this, she knew that the eldest sister had only told him her own secrets and had not betrayed her.
