The most unlucky crossing in history

When Zhong Qiyun followed Zhang Hong to Xie Wenyuan's other courtyard, Xie Wenyuan was still talking with people in the study of the other courtyard. From a distance, by the candlelight in the room, Zhong Qiyun could vaguely see two figures.

The tall and tall man standing upright, needless to say, is naturally Xie Wenyuan.

Zhang Hong led Zhong Qiyun to the door, knocked on the door lightly, then stepped back down the steps and said, "My lord, I have brought you Mr. Zhong."

The people in the room responded: "Well, come in."

"Yes." Zhang Hong responded, turned around and said to Zhong Qiyun, "Mr. Zhong, please."

Zhong Qiyun nodded, and did not show courtesy to Zhang Hong, and walked forward one step ahead, but was about to reach out to push the door, but the door suddenly opened.

Running across from the person who opened the door, Zhong Qiyun saw the familiarity of this person, then took a closer look at him, and then cursed suddenly in his heart: Grass, isn't this the kid who wanted his life in the prison of the Ministry of Criminal Justice that night?

"It's you?"

Gu Shouyi didn't expect that the person Xie Wenyuan was talking about was this one. He paused, and then smiled, his small eyes narrowed slightly and almost became a slit: "My next Gu Shouyi, the word Fuzheng, that day I met Mr. Zhong in prison for a while, I never thought you would recognize me, I haven't seen you for a few months, and your face looks even more radiant than last time."

As he spoke, he turned sideways and made way for Zhong Qiyun.

Gu Shouyi?Zhong Qiyun raised his eyebrows, and without saying anything else, he and Gu Shouyi strayed into the door.

After all, that incident has passed, and he also knows the cause of the incident, so there is nothing he can't let go of.

Thinking of this, Zhong Qiyun looked at Xie Wenyuan, whom he hadn't seen for a long time. In the study, Xie Wenyuan looked over with his hands behind his back, and said, "Zhang Hong, go down first and prepare the horses and chariots." .”

Zhang Hong responded, then closed the door and backed out.

Zhong Qiyun looked in the direction where Zhang Hong left, "Master Xie is really busy, where are you planning to go this evening?"

As he said that, he met Xie Wenyuan's eyes, and said, "I don't know why Mr. Xie called me to this other courtyard in such a hurry. Now is the critical time for Miss Hu to choose her husband. Sir, don't rush In the past, he pulled me over first..."

"Zhang Hong didn't mention it to you?"

"What are you talking about? Why don't you just ask him to call me here?"

Hearing this, Xie Wenyuan looked at Zhong Qiyun with a somewhat complicated expression, "You followed me like this? Why don't you ask me to understand?"

Zhong Qiyun blinked and said with a smile: "

Otherwise, once you open your mouth, Mr. Xie, there is no reason for me not to come, let alone ask that Lao Shizi one, two, three. "

"..."

Seeing that Xie Wenyuan didn't answer, Zhong Qiyun looked at Xie Wenyuan under the dim candlelight. For some reason, Zhong Qiyun suddenly recalled the night when he met Xie Wenyuan again, in Zhiyi Pavilion, in the shipyard.. ....

The throat rolled up and down unconsciously, and Zhong Qiyun came closer, shortening the distance between the two who was not that far.

What was going on in Zhong Qiyun's heart at this time, Xie Wenyuan didn't know, but when Zhong Qiyunfu approached, he smelled a little wine first.

Frowning slightly, Xie Wenyuan asked, "Did you drink just now?"

These words suddenly woke up Zhong Qiyun from the inexplicable stupor just now.

Unexpectedly, Xie Wenyuan would ask such a question suddenly, and was about to approach Zhong Qiyun for a moment, then he felt a little guilty for no reason, and even a drop or two of cold sweat broke out quietly on his head, "Er... I just drank two glasses, Not much, not much..."

"..."

The study room, which was already quiet, became even quieter for some reason for some reason.

Gu Shouyi lowered his head at the side, but he put all these in his ears and eyes, looked up in surprise, looked up at Zhong Qiyun, and then at his master.

Speaking of Zhong Qiyun...

He didn't know much about Zhong Qiyun, he just knew that this person's original name should be Chen Chong, and he was also the key figure that Mr. Xie used to take over the entire Shu Prefecture last time.

He originally thought that there would be no connection between the two, and the biggest connection was just using and being used, although in the end it was Xie Wenyuan who saved his life with tricks...

But after all, this person with no family background and no money should hide his name and hide away from Jingzhao.

Even if you are running across from Xie Wenyuan, you should pretend to be strangers.

But listening to the conversation now, it seems that the relationship is not as imagined?

Gu Shouyi didn't know the twists and turns, so he couldn't figure it out. Before Zhong Qiyun arrived, Xie Wenyuan only told him to let him cooperate with one person to complete one thing, but he didn't expect that this person was actually Zhong Qiyun.

Gu Shouyi had a lot of thoughts in his heart, but he didn't dare to ask, so he could only listen to Xie Wenyuan's arrangement.

Xie Wenyuan saw Gu Shouyi's furtive expression, he shook his head, he shouldn't have asked what he said just now, and said, "Forget it, I called you, I have something to ask."

Zhong Qiyun cleared his throat, "What's the matter?"

"If you use a boat, can you guarantee that you will arrive in Mingzhou by Mao tomorrow?"

"When?" It was five to seven in the morning.

Zhong Qiyun doesn't know, thanks for asking

Yuan asked what was going on, and he made up his mind. It was only a few hours away from now, and he had to rush from Hangzhou to Mingzhou within this time period...

"Hangzhou to Mingzhou is nearly 320 miles by water. If the weather is beautiful and the wind is smooth, you should be able to get there. But you also know that no one can say what the God of Heaven wants this day, and this The sea wind in winter is strong and merciless, and it is not safe for a boat to sail during the day, let alone at night...but..."

Having said that, Zhong Qiyun paused: "Are you planning to let me rush to Mingzhou overnight?"

Xie Wenyuan shook his head: "Send him and 30 people there." After finishing speaking, he looked at Gu Shouyi who was waiting aside.

Zhong Qiyun naturally understood who this "he" was referring to.

Zhuo Feng was arrested, and just now Gu Shouyi rushed to report that someone from Jianzhou went north and changed direction to Mingzhou, and he would be able to arrive in Mingzhou tomorrow.

Tonight, Zhuo's family is ready to rush to Mingzhou overnight to join them.

Although Zhiyi Pavilion has already been taken care of by Xie Wenyuan's orders, but... he still wants to use the face of that Zhiyi girl to ask for something, but this matter, he can't do it anyway. Show up.

It's just that Mingzhou is the territory managed by the third prince's staff...

He needs to arrive in Mingzhou early.

Xie Wenyuan moved his eyes, pondered a little, and asked, "But what? The wind blowing from the northwest has been strong recently, and it hasn't shifted or changed direction. If it goes down with the wind, it should be considered a favorable wind, right?"

As soon as Xie Wenyuan's words came out, Zhong Qiyun's eyes changed again and again, looking at Xie Wenyuan, he felt even more curious, "Do you still know the direction of the sea breeze? You know how to sail?"

Xie Wenyuan shook his head, and said seriously: "I only understand superficial celestial phenomena, but I don't understand the rest. If it is impossible to sail at night, then forget it."

"Hey, hey, I didn't say no." Zhong Qiyun said seriously: "As you said, the northwest wind is strong, and it's just a good wind to go to Mingzhou. I just walked the sea route to Mingzhou a few days ago, so it should be nothing. The problem is that I have never been to Mingzhou, so I don’t know if there is a seaport there, and if there is a road near the sea to Fucheng.”

"If the wind is favorable, how long will it take to reach the coast of Mingzhou?"

"Before time."

Xie Wenyuan smiled when he heard the words, "That's fine."

"If things come true..." As he said that, Xie Wenyuan looked at Zhong Qiyun again, and continued: "If things come true, I will give you a thousand pieces of gold."

Zhong Qiyun laughed, sailing once to Mingzhou, even if his ship broke down, it would only be a few hundred taels.

Forget it, you should do what I want. "

"What's the matter?"

Zhong Qiyun thought for a while, "I haven't figured it out yet, when I think about it, I'll tell you, don't worry, it won't be difficult."

Xie Wenyuan naturally knew that Zhong Qiyun was not the kind of person who would open his mouth like a lion, and he believed him a little bit about this.

"can."

"Well, since it's been agreed," Zhong Qiyun paused, took a deep breath, turned his back, and stopped looking at Xie Wenyuan: "It's not too late, I'll call the boatman to the bank of the Qiantang River now, Then you rushed to the port of Qiantang River, the ship with the white mast and canvas."

As for what to send these people to, and why they had to be sent overnight, Xie Wenyuan didn't say anything, and Zhong Qiyun naturally wouldn't ask.There are so many twists and turns in this officialdom, if one is not careful, he will be doomed. It is better for him to know less about some things.

Xie Wenyuan saw that Zhong Qiyun turned around and was about to leave, so he said again: "You send Fuzheng to Mingzhou and come back immediately."

"nature."

After all, Zhang Hong just came back, knocked on the door lightly, and said: "My lord, the carriages and horses are ready."

When Zhong Qiyun heard the words, he didn't turn around, but said directly, "Then I'll go." After finishing speaking, without waiting for Xie Wenyuan to say a word, he quickly walked out the door and away from the study.

Zhang Hong hurriedly followed Zhong Qiyun, and when he saw Zhong Qiyun's head covered in cold sweat, he was startled: "Mr. Zhong, you are..."

No matter how good the analgesic ointment Master Huang prepared, it will only be effective for a certain period of time. The ointment for burns has expired, and the pain on the back is tearing, which can be regarded as Di Zhong Qiyun can bear it, so he didn't show it in front of Xie Wenyuan. one cent.

Zhong Qiyun shook his head: "It's nothing serious, it's a burn, there's no specific medicine, no matter what, you have to take care of it slowly to heal."

Zhang Hong looked serious, "Do you have pain-relieving ointment on you?" Although the burn ointment formulated by Doctor Huang was painful when it was first applied, after a while, it will feel refreshed and cool, relieve the burning pain, and then heal. many.

"No, it's in the Hu Mansion, and I don't have time to get it now, just bear with it, and I'll get it tomorrow."

"..." Zhang Hong looked at Zhong Qiyun and said nothing.He knew the feeling of the burn, and it made him feel uncomfortable all the time, not to mention that there was such a big piece on Zhong Qiyun's back.

In the study, Gu Shouyi cautiously looked at Xie Wenyuan, "Just now, this Mr. Zhong doesn't seem very good-looking."

Still looking at Xie Wenyuan who opened the door wide, his eyes darkened, "I know."
