Chapter 2339 to Beijing
Man Bao and the others could not stay in Xiazhou longer, so after going up the mountain to see their longevity tablets, they were happy and ready to return to Beijing.
By this time, Du Yu had already met seven or eight people in Xiazhou City with the help of Xiang Mingxue, but he still couldn't find the wife he was looking for.
He could only collect the money sadly and follow the others to see Zhou Man off. "I heard that the capital is very big. Are the people selling there better?"
Man Bao also learned about Dayu's criteria for choosing a spouse from Zhou Lijun. Seeing him looking sadly in the direction of the capital, he reached out and patted his shoulder and said: "Brother Dayu, if you want to marry a fairy-like figure, then you can
You have to become a god-like person first, so that you can be compatible, and only then can you have a chance to meet such a person."
Dayu: "...Is that a person like a fairy? Worse than you, right?"
Man Bao shook his head and said seriously: "No, he is much better than me. Apart from being literate and having some medical skills, I am also smart and beautiful, but I can't do anything else."
Du Yu paused and hesitated: "Then should I relax the conditions?"
The brothers standing behind him immediately said to Zhou Man: "Master Zhou, how can you remind him? He should be single."
"Yes, the girl he ends up harming when he marries a wife like this is the other girl. If the girl he marries is not what he wants, wouldn't they become a couple of enemies?"
"That's right, that's right, he should continue to find such a fairy-like figure."
Heavy Rain waved to them, "Go, go, go, why are you everywhere?"
Man Bao said: "If you are willing, you can come with us to the capital."
Dayu's heart skipped a beat before he shook his head and said, "Forget it, brother will beat me to death if he knows that I ran away to the capital without permission."
Yang Heshu smiled and said to him: "Xiazhou has a large population. Especially after April every year, there are many merchants coming to Xiazhou. There are always merchants with their wives. If Brother Dayu doesn't mind, you can go to Xiazhou City more often.
After a few trips, you might be able to meet your destined person."
Man Bao and Bai Shan recommended Xiazhou to Yang Heshu together, "Yes, Xiazhou has a large population. Finding a wife depends on your feelings. If you meet more people, what if you find the right one?"
Heavy Rain looked at them suspiciously.
Man Bao was a little unconvinced and said: "Doubt us? You don't even look at it. I'm already engaged. Aren't I more experienced than you?"
Bai Shan turned to look at her, wanting to tell her that even if you were engaged, you were no more experienced than others.
Who would have thought that Heavy Rain would actually start thinking thoughtfully, nodding slightly, "That makes sense."
Bai Shan quickly took Man Bao and said goodbye to everyone.
Yang Heshu and Mrs. Cui nodded to them and smiled and said: "Take care along the way, we have prepared a lot of vegetables and bacon and frozen meat for you. According to the itinerary, you should be on the road to celebrate the New Year. It will be difficult to find inns and restaurants by then.
Prepare more food for the road.”
He also warned: "Don't stay too long on the road. If you don't go back after the seventh day of the Lunar New Year, it will be difficult for Your Majesty to explain to you."
Man Bao and Bai Shan agreed together and then set off.
Their convoy and Xiang Mingxue's caravan formed a single convoy, and they did not separate until they reached Yongzhou.
Man Bao and the others continued on their way to the capital at great speed, while Zhou Lijun and the others decided to stay in the courtyard in Yongzhou for one day and then enter the capital the next day.
So Manbao and the others arrived in Beijing in a light and simple manner. They only had three luggage carts in total, which directly reduced the number of luggage carts by nine.
The oxcart carrying the wounded soldiers also started running, but the oxen lacked endurance when it got up quickly, so it didn't run very fast.
Fortunately, Yongzhou is not very far from the capital, and Manbao and the others finally entered the capital in Shenshi.
As soon as he entered the city, Manbao was at a loss and didn't know where to go. Mr. Zhuang said: "First go to the post station, then go to Honglu Temple next to the post station to hand in the seal, then send someone to the palace to deliver the message, and finally go back to each other.
Everyone is waiting for news."
Mr. Zhuang said: "Today is the fourth day of the Lunar New Year and the Yamen has not yet opened the seal. Your Majesty may not announce his visit."
After everyone heard this, they felt relieved and went to the inn immediately. Of course, they didn't have to live in the inn. It was the wounded soldiers on the oxcart who needed to stay. Manbao didn't want them to pay for it. Of course, she didn't pay for it herself either.
, and said directly to Yi Cheng: "This is a patient who has been vaccinated with cowpox. His Majesty may summon him later, so don't neglect him."
Yi Cheng looked at the soldiers who were old or missing arms and legs, and was speechless for a while, "The patients chosen by Mr. Zhou... are really unique."
Man Bao smiled and said: "Where is it? Okay, I'll leave them to you, entertain them well."
Then he said to these retired veterans: "I live in Zhou's house in Chongyuanfang. If you have anything to do with me, just ask me and you will know. This is the door post."
The veterans immediately took it. When Yi Cheng saw it, he really didn't dare to neglect these people and led them to the room to rest with a smile.
Mr. Zhuang took Manbao to Honglu Temple to hand in the seal.
There were officials on duty at Honglu Temple. When they saw Zhou Man coming back at this time, they were startled and then overjoyed, "Oh, Mr. Zhou, Mr. Zhuang, you are finally back."
I heard about them twenty days ago, but they haven't come back yet. God knows how worried they are. They are afraid that they will encounter bandits on the road and capsize the boat in the ditch. Nothing happened during the expedition to the west, but they did.
An accident occurred when Shengli returned to Beijing.
However, although there were officials on duty at Honglu Temple, the seals were not opened at this time, and he could not issue a seal to Zhou Man. However, he still accepted their seals, smiled and issued a receipt for them, and then
He asked with a smile: "Master Zhou, is this going smoothly?"
Manbao nodded with a smile and said: "It went very well. The people who have been vaccinated with cowpox are now living in a post station not far away. When I return to the hospital, they will come over to see the doctor and confirm the situation. His Majesty may also summon them."
The officials of Honglu Temple were happy to hear this and asked quickly: "Have you sent someone to inform the palace?"
If he didn't go, he wouldn't mind asking someone from Honglu Temple to run an errand.
Hearing that Nie Canjun had sent soldiers over, he was disappointed, and then said with a smile: "Today is the fourth day of the Lunar New Year, and the Yamen has not yet opened the seal. Just report to the palace that you are safe. Your Majesty may summon you again in two days."
"My lords, you have been traveling all the way, why don't you go home first, pack up, rest, and wait for the notice from the palace."
Manbao agreed, took the receipt, and led the person home.
Nie Canjun wanted to take his people back to the military camp, so they divided their luggage on the street.
Among the three carts of luggage, one and a half carts were filled with the soldiers' luggage and... the ashes that could be burned. Everyone moved a few boxes from another car, checked them, and said to Manager Li: "There are still some in that box."
We have something."
