Chapter 1327 The Road to the East
The voice and smile of his father when he left was still in his mind, but he never came back.

Holding her father's belongings in her hands, the woman sat down in the yard, weeping uncontrollably.

A three or four-year-old boy ran out of the room, cuddling up to her side obediently.I know my mother is very sad, so I dare not make trouble.

The woman's name is Zhao Yunshu, and her father is Zhao Chuan, a well-known doctor in Shaanxi.

After Zhao Yunshu got married, her husband's family died in the war, so she had to bring her children back to join her father.

Unexpectedly, there was an epidemic near Xi'an. Sun Chuanting heard about his father's name, so he was called to the army to treat the sick soldiers.

But I didn't expect that this trip turned out to be a farewell.

Zhao Yunshu was sad and helpless.

Without her father, she is just a weak woman, what should she do in such troubled times?

It doesn't matter if she dies or not, the young child probably won't survive either.

Although her father left a message, he asked her to go to Shandong to find her senior brother.But Shandong is thousands of miles away, and she can't go there by herself.

When I was sad, the knock on the door sounded again.

Zhao Yunshu was a little stunned. Could it be that those soldiers came back again.

She wiped away her tears, stepped forward and opened the door, feeling a little flustered for a moment.

The people outside the door were not soldiers, but several men.

However, these people also covered their faces with strange cloths, looking very tough, like robbers who robbed their houses.

Zhao Yunshu's heart skipped a beat, and he hurriedly wanted to close the door.Unexpectedly, the leader spoke very politely and politely.

"Excuse me, but Ms. Zhao Yunshu?"

It's a very strange title, but for some reason, it warms Zhao Yunshu's heart.

After living for so many years, people call her either Zhao's family name or her husband's family name.

Respecting her name like this somehow made her feel like a human being.

"You are……"

The leading man talked to her, but the others scattered in all directions, making no attempt to break into the yard.

Zhao Yunshu observed carefully and found that those men were very vigilant around them, obviously unwilling to be discovered and act.

"I'm Wang Changliang from the Shaanxi Division of the Xia Kingdom's Intelligence Department. This is my ID."

The leading man took out a small palm-sized book wrapped in cooked leather from his arms, and opened it towards Zhao Yunshu.

It is densely packed with words and there are many seals.

Zhao Yunshu came from a medical family, so he was naturally literate.I saw that it said: The leader of the first group of the Shaanxi Division of the Xia State Intelligence Department.

Below is the name, and a seal that is difficult to imitate.

Hearing that he was from Xia Kingdom, Zhao Yunshu felt more secure.

Although she has never been to Xia Guo, she has heard people say that Xia Guo is like heaven.

After reading the documents for her, Wang Changliang finally revealed his purpose.

"Some of us are in the army, and I heard what your father said before he died. May I ask, Ms. Zhao, is your senior brother named Wu Youxing?"

Hearing the familiar name, Zhao Yunshu's heart warmed up.

"Exactly. My father said that I want my family to go to Shandong to look for him. It's just a long way, and my family's weak body may be difficult to do."

Wang Changliang showed a smiling face through the face scarf.

"We just knew this, so we came to the door. Ms. Zhao may not know that your brother is the director of the Epidemic Prevention Department of our Xia State Health Department. You are a relative of Director Wu, and we have the responsibility to escort you safely. to Shandong."

Zhao Yunshu hadn't seen his senior brother for many years, and he heard that Wu Youxing was actually an official in Xia Kingdom.Although I don't know how big the official position is, I can't help but feel happy.

"Is this true?"

Wang Changliang laughed.

"If it wasn't for the long journey and the lack of time, I can ask Director Wu to write you a letter as a confirmation. But this matter is of course true. After Director Wu arrived in Xia Kingdom, he really made great contributions. The disease of miasma It was Director Wu who conquered it, and was promoted because of his meritorious service, I don't know how many people are grateful to him."

After the news of his father's death, Zhao Yunshu's painful heart was somewhat soothed when he first heard the news of Wu Youxing.

She thought of the key point.

"Can you really escort our mother and son to Shandong?"

Wang Changliang knew that the woman was suspicious, so he could only tell the truth.

"In the current situation, if you stay here, you will die. If we are bad people, you will die too. Whether you want to gamble or not depends entirely on your will."

These words reached Zhao Yunshu's heart.

Now there are faint signs of turmoil in the city of Xi'an, and there is no telling when it will break out.

She is a weak woman, I don't know how many pairs of eyes are staring at her.

In the past, when the father was alive, there was no need to worry.Now that his father is gone, the weak courtyard gate can't stop those who do evil.

Even if he wasn't killed by someone, the whole city was covered by the plague, and he might be infected at some point, so he couldn't survive.

This is troubled times.

Human life is like a mustard.

Although Zhao Yunshu is pretty, the most important thing is whether he can survive.

Looking back, looking at her increasingly thin son, she finally made up her mind.

"I'll go with you."

She didn't give up on herself, but she had been paying attention to observing when she spoke just now.

Wang Changliang's eyes are clear, without the slightest trace of obscenity, which shows that he is definitely a gentleman.

Another one, there are seven or eight big men on the other side, and they are holding knives and swords.If she really wanted to do something bad, she would have done it a long time ago, how could she resist it?

Even if something happens at this moment, who can save her?
There is no need for the other party to spend a lot of trouble.

Seeing that Zhao Yunshu agreed, Wang Changliang couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.

"If you want to leave, you have to hurry up, otherwise, when Li Chuang fights with the officers and soldiers, the roads will be blocked and there will be rioters everywhere, then we won't be able to leave."

Although Zhao Yunshu was a woman, she was quite decisive, went back to the house and tidied it up hastily, took a change of clothes and money, and left with Wang Changliang and others.

There was deathly silence all around, and no one knew Dr. Zhao's house was empty.

The actions of Wang Changliang and others obviously went through careful planning. One person helped hold the child and escorted Zhao Yunshu through the city of Xi'an without arousing any suspicion.

After a few rounds, a magnificent carriage was parked in a secluded alley.

When Zhao Yunshu saw the banners on the carriage, he couldn't help being startled.

There is a big "Qin" character on the banner, with a bright yellow background.

This is a flag that can only be used by the Qin Palace.

Wang Changliang chuckled and said, "If you want to get out of the city smoothly, without obstruction on the road, you have to pull a big banner and pull a tiger's skin. In this area of ​​Shaanxi, borrowing his name as King Qin can be regarded as his accumulation of good deeds."

But ordinary people definitely don't have a good impression of the vassal king.

Hearing what he said, Zhao Yunshu couldn't help pursing his lips in joy.

She and her son got into the car, only to find that it was very ordinary inside.Except for some simple items such as food and bedding, there is nothing else.

Obviously, this was disguised by Wang Changliang and others.

During the wobble, the carriage started to move, and Zhao Yunshu also started to embark on the road to the east.
