husband and wife

Chapter 439

A trace of worry flashed in Su Wan's eyes, and then disappeared again, and said softly: "But there is one more thing I need to ask Dad."

"what's up?"

"People coming from Beijing can't enter Qiongzhou without a boat. Originally, we could temporarily detain the boat in the post station and wait for people coming from Beijing. But if we do this, we might startle the snake and make those people vigilant, and the situation will become troublesome. Well, it's better to give up the boat in the post house and rent two merchant ships in secret, Father."

"Two merchant ships? How can you ask for such a big ship?"

"Just in case you need it."

Father Su's face became even more serious, and he glanced at Su Wan: "You really don't know what's going on?"

"Of course I don't know. My husband asked me to tell my father these things. He only said that these must be done well, and he didn't have time to explain the rest."

Father Su's expression turned serious, he nodded and said, "What else did Ziheng say?"

Su Wan nodded, took out a letter from her sleeve, and handed it to him: "This is written by my husband to the magistrate of Guangzhou. My father seems to have some relationship with the magistrate's government. I wonder if I can deliver the letter to the magistrate of Guangzhou in person tonight." hand?"

Father Su took the letter solemnly, and set off for Zhizhou Mansion as soon as it got dark.

I don't know how long it took, Su Wan tossed and turned on the bed unable to fall asleep, she simply put on her clothes and got up, Mama Liu was worried, she specially kept watch outside, she woke up when she heard the movement, she lit the lamp and asked softly, "Madam is awake?"

Su Wan gave a low "Mmm", only to hear a rustling sound from behind the screen, after a while, Mama Liu came in with a candle and asked in a low voice, "Madam can't sleep?"

"What time is it?"

"About three o'clock in the afternoon."

"My father hasn't come back yet?"

"The old slave didn't hear any movement outside the courtyard, so he probably hasn't come back yet."

Su Wan turned her eyes to the half-closed window, was stunned for a moment, and said, "The moonlight outside the courtyard is pretty good, Mama Liu will accompany me for a walk."

Liu Ma knew that she was disturbed, so she didn't try to dissuade her, she just nodded and said: "It's late at night, ma'am, wait a moment, this old servant will get you a cloak to put on."

The cold dew was heavy, and the night was as cold as water. Su Wan saw her own shadow clearly appearing under her feet, and suddenly felt that the night was really in line with her current state of mind. She looked up at the beautiful bright moon in the night sky, and sighed deeply.

For Yue Siren, she has now tasted the feeling of being worried, but she doesn't know how the other party is now.

In the past, when we were together every day, there was nothing to worry about, so we didn't realize it, but now we realize that there is no contact tool, which is really inconvenient everywhere.

Liu Ma silently followed behind Su Wan without saying a word, the courtyard was quiet for a while, and suddenly heard footsteps coming slowly, Liu Ma raised her head and said: "It is estimated that the old lady is back."

As soon as Mama Liu finished speaking, Father Su's figure appeared in front of Su Wan. When Father Su saw Su Wan, he was taken aback for a moment, then nodded slightly, and asked, "Waiting for me to come back?"

Su Wan asked back: "Father delivered the letter to Mr. Zheng?"

"Exactly."

"How does Mr. Zheng react?"

"He was more hesitant, saying that the matter was too big, and he didn't dare to make a rash decision."

"But since Xianggong wrote the letter, he must be very sure. Even if he made a mistake in the end, he will be punished. Mr. Zheng can't bear the slightest responsibility. On the contrary, if he does, because Mr. Zheng doesn't cooperate with the work, it will lead to unforeseen circumstances. Mr. Zheng is fully responsible for the losses he avoided."

Father Su was silent for a moment, and then said: "The master in front of Mr. Zheng also said the same thing. Mr. Zheng finally agreed."

Su Wan nodded, and finally let go of her worrying heart. She had fulfilled Song Ziheng's entrustment, and now she only depends on God's will. After thinking about it, she said, "Father asked someone to guard the city gate. Once there are people from the capital Come here, let's get in touch in time, so as not to delay the time."

"I'll send my servant who came with me from Beijing early in the morning. He is a safe and trustworthy person."

Su Wan nodded and felt relieved. Just as she was about to ask Father Su to rest earlier, the other party suddenly asked, "Honestly speaking, is your son-in-law in Qiongzhou now in danger?"

Seeing Su Wan open her mouth, Father Su said again: "Don't embarrass me anymore, I have listened to Mr. Zheng and Master's discussion. In the letter, the son-in-law actually asked Mr. Zheng to strengthen the coastal defense and strengthen the supervision of the pier. Do not let any suspicious people or goods enter Qiongzhou. Mr. Zheng promised in front of me that starting tomorrow, the dock will send five more teams every day, and every boat entering and leaving will be strictly inspected, including the boats in the posthouse——such precautions Strictness, it must not be a trivial matter, Wanwan, is there going to be turmoil in Qiongzhou?"

"Don't think about it, it's not that serious."

Father Su is still uneasy: "The son-in-law said in the letter that if necessary, the sea area will be sealed off, and suspicious people will not be allowed to land in Guangzhou-isn't it to prevent people from rebelling?"

"I guessed half right. It's actually not a rebellion. It's the remnants of the previous dynasty. It's the rebels." Su Wan explained simply, "My husband found treasures and weapons hidden in the mountains behind an inconspicuous village. It is related to the army, and before the rebels form a climate, they want to wipe them out in one fell swoop and send us to Guangzhou, one is for the sake of insurance, and the other is the arrangement of the husband, and there must be a proper person to complete it for him."

Father Su took a deep breath, but when he saw Su Wan's calm face, he forced himself to calm down, and said in a low voice, "If we meet the adults sent by the saint, how can we get on line with them?"

"Invite them to come here to explain, I have a letter from my relatives." Su Wan said, took out another letter from her sleeve, and handed it to Father Su, "They will know after reading it."

"Son-in-law's arrangement is so proper, I think it won't be a big deal." Father Su nodded, not sure if he was comforting Su Wan or himself.

The people sent by the sage were also very quick. Su Wan waited restlessly for five or six days in Guangzhou. The team arrived as scheduled, a few days earlier than expected. However, the letter written by Song Ziheng was useless because the sage sent It was an acquaintance.

"His Royal Highness, this way please—"

Mr. Zheng's attentive voice was heard by Father Su in the hall as soon as he entered the hospital. Father Su immediately stood up and greeted him nervously. Before stepping out of the hall, a group of people had already appeared in his courtyard. At a glance, Father Su saw the highly sought-after young man in the middle, Master Zheng's courteous attitude, and he could only kneel on the ground and let him step on him.

As soon as the young man raised his head, his sword-shaped eyebrows slanted into his temples, and his exquisite peach-blossom eyes diluted the sharpness, so Father Su couldn't help blurting out: "Young Master Yu?!"

Su Wan, who was listening to the commotion outside the room, was also taken aback. The saint actually sent the third prince out?Did the situation in Beijing and China change so quickly?
