Chapter 652 - Volume II The Truth Is Coming – 1 Blocking the Road, Lord Yu’s Departure from the Capital
Qi Gongfu today and sent people over, said some details of the matter, the dowager lady thought to also pay attention to some details, never let people from the top of the clothes than the Qi Gongfu.
The more clothes cabinet is doing this kind of business, Qu Mo Ying got the meaning of the dowager lady to the more clothes cabinet to pick some of their own, but also with the shopkeeper Yang aunt to discuss how to better, this aspect of Yang aunt can be regarded as a competent hand, the most will help people accessorize the clothes, some small details, it is possible to affect the overall feeling.
“Why is it still stuck in traffic?” The carriage had been stuck in the traffic jam for some time, Qu Mo Ying gently lifted the curtain and looked outside.
“The slave girl went down to take a look.” Yu Dong said.
Qu Mo Ying nodded, this section of the road has never been blocked before, I didn’t expect that this time it would be so blocked, and once blocked for so long, her carriage was far away and didn’t know what was going on in front of her, she only heard that it seemed that there were officials going out of the capital.
What officials come out of the capital in such a big way.
“Come back after inquiring a little.” Qu Mo Ying said.
Yu Dong nodded, eloquent down from the carriage, rowed toward the front, she is not really a maiden, demeanor above put very open, crowded place directly to the front of the crowd, do not care about other people bumped into their own, the mouth of course, also very polite, “Let a give way, let a give way!”
Others see him a good-looking little maid, although annoying squeeze over, but also can not be too much, can only to the side and squeezed, but let him also really squeezed to the front.
The street was stopped on both sides of the street, with soldiers on their way out of the city, and all the people on both sides of the street were stopped.
The rows of soldiers move forward, look back, there’s still some distance to go… is this going to move?
Surprised, Yu Dong probed around and didn’t see anything, and with a hint of a smile on his face, he politely said to an old man standing beside him, “Old man, is this a war?”
“No, where is the war, the Yu Guo Gong is leaving the capital.” The old man smiled and said.
“Yu Guo Gong?” Yu Dong thought for a moment, “That’s the Yu Guo Gong who had been idle before?”
“Yes, it’s that Duke Yu.” The old man nodded, “Duke Yu is a fierce general who has led soldiers before, it’s best if he goes over now.”
“Where to?” Raindon looked ahead and didn’t see the end.
“The northern border side it, I heard that side is now in chaos.” The old man shook his head and looked around, seeing that no one noticed them before he whispered again, “I heard that what the big prince over there is beating the second prince, the second prince is beating the big prince, and what the plot to seize the position of power and whatnot, it’s in chaos, and then the chaos is going to hit our side.”
“That messed up?” Raindon’s eyes widened in shock.
“Of course … otherwise why would they send Yu Guo Gong over, it is not because Yu Guo Gong is too heroic and has this ability, there are not many generals like this in the dynasty.” The old man shook his head, rather sighing that time is easy to grow old, “Back then, the Duke of Yu was a white-robed young general, and now he’s old.”
As he spoke, a young man in white armor came from the back, riding on a white horse, white helmet and white armor, even though he was still young, he still made people feel heroic.
“Look, look … This is what the British Duke looked like back then.” The old man excitedly reached out and pointed to the white horse boy in front of him.
“This is … Yu Guo Gong’s son?” Yu Dong thought for a moment and asked, he remembered that the Duke of Yu should have a son, early on, he reprimanded the son of the world.
“It’s Duke Yu’s son, the Duke Yu back then was like this.” The old man was honored with the honor and said happily, “I heard that Duke Yu’s son also practiced marching early, this time he will definitely have the opportunity to go to the Northern Border and show off his might.”
The white-clothed boy passed by Yu Dong, bringing up a gust of wind.
Yu Dong’s gaze swept over the face of this Yu Guo Gong Shi Zi, inexplicably feeling some sense of familiarity, could it be that he had once seen Yu Guo Gong from afar before?
Raindon didn’t care and turned to squeeze out of the crowd.
“Miss, it’s the Yu Guo Gong who went to the Northern Border to inspect, I heard that the Northern Border is not stable, and brought a few more people, this will not be finished yet.”
Raindon reported.
“Are there so many people traveling together?” Qu Mo Ying asked casually as he remembered some of the things his father had talked about in his last life about the marching of soldiers.
“Actually not much, but walking very neatly , but also very slow, to this road are blocked, slave girl estimated that there may still be a period of time to go.” Yu Dong remembered the soldiers who had not yet reached the end of the road from afar, “Does Miss want to get off the carriage first and take a rest?”
“Also good!” Qu Mo Ying nodded her head, if it was really still far away, it wasn’t a good idea to stay in the carriage all the time, and she originally wasn’t in a hurry to go to the Yue Clothes Pavilion.
“Miss, there is a bookstore over there, can we go there?” Yu Dong just got off the carriage when, has checked, those places Miss may not like, not as good as that a book store, look more in line with Miss’s mind.
“Just go to the bookstore.” Qu Mo Ying nodded, sitting so dry was indeed boring.
Yu Dong re-emerged from the carriage and helped Qu Mo Ying to come down as well, without an eye veil, only wearing a drapery hat and a light veil to hide her face.
Although the carriage here blocked a few, people are not particularly much, all crowded to the front to see the fun, Qu Mo Ying followed Yu Dong’s back, not long after walking forward, to see the bookstore, the store is not small, the door is also someone standing, this one is a little higher, some people are standing in front of the store to see the fun.
Luckily, it’s fairly quiet inside.
The bookstore is divided into upper and lower floors, Qu Mo Ying turned around in the lower floor, did not find anything special to care about, and brought Yu Dong up to the second floor.
The wooden stairs clacked and stomped as they were stepped on.
The stairs are not directly up, in the middle of the half also turned a corner, Yu Dong in front, Qu Mo Ying in the hand, only to the turn, suddenly the top rushed down a few people, so straight down.
Yu Dong subconsciously tried to push the person away, the dress was pulled by Qu Mo Ying, and the two of them took a few raw steps backwards, if not for Qu Mo Ying’s quick reaction and retreating so fast, they would inevitably roll down raw.
Above the people can also stand, is three young men, when the first one looks outstanding, not far from the stairs there is a small boy chased down.
“My lord, be careful.”
“This young lady, didn’t bump into you, right?” The young man looked at the master and servant duo who could stand downstairs, and politely arched his hand, “I have urgent matters, and walked in a hurry, if the young lady has any discomforts, please speak clearly, there is a medical center not far in front of her, so she can go there to take a look.”
“Unhindered!” Qu Mo Ying silently sized up these people twice and shook his head.
Yu Dong was originally exasperated and wanted to speak, but when she saw Qu Mo Ying shaking her head, she could only close her eyes in annoyance and glared angrily at these few people.
“Is it really alright? Just now I seem to have seen Miss’s leg twisted, is it hurt?” The young man once again politely said.
“There’s no harm in it, Your Excellency, be my guest!” Qu Mo Ying said sparsely and coldly, making a sideways bow to the young man.
It was still Yu Dong who took the lead, and Qu Mo Ying followed and marched upstairs.
When he passed by the young man, the young man also had the courtesy to avoid the side and smiled at Qu Mo Ying, his outstanding looking face showing a few points of guilt, looking at it was very pleasing to the eye.
Seeing Qu Mo Ying go up, the young man suddenly spoke up, “If this young lady has anything to do, just come and find me, my name is Liu, I’m now living at the stagecoach station, you’ll know once you go and ask around!”
Qu Mo Ying didn’t reply, and only gave a sideways salute, following Yu Dong’s lead as he continued to walk forward.
It looked like this man was still an official, otherwise he couldn’t have lived at the stagecoach station.
This matter originally has nothing to do with her, but just now when the other side rushed down, the momentum looked like how to avoid can not avoid, there is such an urgent matter, this will look at how it is not urgent?
Willow eyebrows slightly frowned, because the other party rushed too fast, it was impossible to avoid, Qu Mo Ying’s subconscious reaction was to pull Yu Dong, for fear that he would overreact.
If it was a maiden who didn’t know martial arts, even if she went up to block it, she wouldn’t be able to, but if it was a maiden who knew martial arts, she would inevitably rush up.
She inexplicably is to feel that these people are very unusual, which has subconsciously pulled Yu Dong back initiative, those steps really hurt her, foot slightly twisted, fortunately here up the stairs only a few steps, she has been steady to nothing, to be walked behind the people can not be seen, and only then held Yu Dong’s hand, signaling him to stop.
Maybe she was overthinking it, but that’s what the party was thinking.
“Miss, are you hurt?” At a glance at her situation, Yu Dong immediately understood and anxiously squatted down to look at Qu Mo Ying’s feet.
“It’s not a big deal, just sit down for a little while.” Qu Mo Ying looked around and saw that in front of the innermost bookcase, there seemed to be a place to sit, and reached out and pointed in.
Yu Dong stood up and carefully helped her over, feeling guilty, just now if he reacted faster, he could certainly block the rush of those people.
To be so rampant even in a bookstore, those people have no class, and they don’t look at what kind of place this is and whether they’ll bump into someone.
Things have been put here, Yu Dong again annoyed no way, Qu Mo Ying help to the inside, and really see that there are actually a few reading and copying position.
No one will be around, so it’s a good place to take a break.
Qu Mo Ying picked an inside seat and sat down, this one had a large long table with chairs placed on both sides of the table, and for the sake of quietness, there was a layer of curtains outside that could be pulled up.
Yu Dong had already pulled this one up, immediately like isolating a private room.
Originally it was already the innermost part of the second floor, pulling it up made it even quieter, and with the windows still on one side, it didn’t feel gloomy, making it a perfect place to rest.
Looking up, you could clearly see people squeezing people and cars squeezing cars below, and some people were squeezing back and forth, drawing people above them to look over.
Look at the location very clearly.
“Is it Fourth Miss Qu?” A voice suddenly came from outside the curtain, and Yu Dong looked at Qu Mo Ying in surprise, but saw her nod.
Go up and open the drapery and look out …
