The Little Officials of the Song Dynasty Chapter 271: Go to Guangnan


After Yun Yan returned to the palace, the little tiger was still crying, and his voice was hoarse. It was very distressing to see Yun Yan returning.

A group of people surrounded the little tiger, but they couldn't coax him to be quiet. This kid was stubborn. After being abducted and sold, the traffickers couldn't make him stop crying or making trouble.

The little tiger had tears in his eyes, saw Yun Yanhui's figure, pushed aside the crowd, rushed over, and burrowed into his arms.

Yun Yanhui squatted down and hugged the little tiger, feeling his arms tightly around her neck, and lovingly wiped his tears, "Honey, tell my brother, what's wrong?"

Only Yun Yanhui's words could make him listen. The little tiger's cry weakened and he told Yun Yanhui with a sob: "My father...my father is sick, he is going to die." He grabbed Yun Yan turned back to the front of her clothes and said, "Brother Yan, I miss my father..."

"Then let's hurry back and see Daddy, okay? But what if you don't cry first, otherwise you don't have the strength to walk?" Yun Yanhui took the towel from the waiter's hand and wiped the little tiger's face. Seeing that although he was still smoking, he had stopped crying.

The little tiger was tired from crying, and gradually fell asleep in Yun Yanhui's arms.

Some of the servants complained: "The Miao people who reported the letter were so reckless. They even told Shi Xiaolang his father's illness directly, which caused Shi Xiaolang to cry so much that he couldn't stop crying."

The official allowed this person to report the news to the little tiger, but he did not expect that this person would tell his little master about his condition so bluntly. The little tiger cried so loudly that they were also scolded by the concubine.

It is not convenient for Yunyan to stay for a long time, holding the little tiger and begging to see Renzong.

Renzong knew this for a long time, and he felt pity for the unfortunate little tiger family. Seeing that the little tiger fell asleep in Yun Yanhui's arms, he asked someone to pick him up and put it on the wooden couch beside him.

"Since this is the case, Shi Gaobi should be called back to his hometown quickly to fulfill his filial piety. Bring some medicinal materials and send an imperial doctor from the Imperial Medical Bureau to accompany him."

Although it is said that Shifu is dying, and the little tiger will probably see the last time when he goes back, they still have to do some symbolic work.

"I don't know what's wrong with my uncle?" Yun Yanhui asked with a glimmer of hope. He didn't understand medicine, but he knew that many minor diseases in modern times can lead to death. It's just an ordinary minor illness, and he just has an impression of how to treat it?

Renzong: "The miasma enters the body, and all medicines are useless."

Yun Yanhui is very disappointed. He doesn't understand this disease at all. Moreover, there are many miasmas in the mountainous areas, and the local residents may know how to treat them better.

Renzong pondered: "I'm afraid I'll have to hurry up and work hard, day and night, I'll order someone to **** him back to his hometown." Renzong considered for a moment and decided to call Zhou Huilin in charge.

Yun Yanhui knew that Zhou Huilin was quite reliable, and felt a little relieved.

After the little tiger woke up, Renzong told him kindly that someone would accompany him back to see his father, and he could leave immediately.

The little tiger hugged Yun Yanhui's arm tightly, but was unwilling to get up.

"Are you still sleepy? Can you sleep in the car?" Yun Yan advised back.

The little tiger shook his head vigorously, put his head on Yun Yanhui's shoulder, and whimpered: "I want Brother Yan..."

In Tokyo, the little tiger trusted Yun Yan back the most. Now that he knew the news, he was afraid, and he was even more reluctant to leave Yun Yan. Leave Yunyan back.

Yunyan was stunned for a while, then reacted immediately, and after only a moment, she made up her mind and begged Renzong to allow him to accompany him and send the little tiger back to Guangnan.

Renzong only asked: "The distance from Tokyo to Guizhou is long, and the mountain road is difficult. Are you sure you want to go?"

Yun Yanhui nodded firmly, "I'll go back and pack up a bit, and I'll be able to set off immediately. I'll write a letter to arrange the affairs at hand when I'm away."

Renzong knew that the two were in a good relationship, so asking Yunyan to accompany him would also comfort the little tiger, so he nodded: "That's right."

So, at this emergency, Zhou Huilin, the imperial physician, and Yunyan returned to them, packed their things, and set off for Guangnan Road.

Because of the sudden incident, Yun Yanhui only had time to talk to Zheng Ping, and Zheng Ping understood it very well. This was not the first time he was on a business trip. Others didn't have time to inform at all, and they didn't know that he was no longer in Beijing until he was hundreds of miles away.

……

Because there are old (the imperial physician), weak (Yun Yanhui), and young (little tigers), no matter how strong Zhou Huilin and the little tiger guards are, they cannot ride the horses, so they can only drive the carriage as fast as possible. Set up a horse, and change horses every time you arrive at the station.

The carriage was very bumpy. Because of the day and night, except for the necessary rest, almost all of them were on it. It was not good to rest at all. After a few days, Yunyan would be better when he was young. Out of breath.

It's not over until we finally reach Guizhou. Because the little tiger's home is deep in the mountains, the carriage can't go up, and the horse can't run, so he basically has to walk.

I don't know how the little tiger's father is doing, so it's not easy for everyone to delay, and it's too late to rest, so they immediately went into the mountains again.

Before, Zhou Huilin was in charge. When they got to the mountains, it was the guards of the little tiger who led the way. They were all local Miao people and knew the way.

No, there is no "road" in this mountain at all.

The little tiger was carried by his guards in turn, while Zhou Huilin supported Imperial Physician Wang. What surprised Zhou Huilin was that he usually looked at Yunyan's weak text, and had no power to tie the chicken. Be a thug, but in this case, he didn't say a single word of bitterness.

This mountain road, Yun Yanhui has not traveled for a long time, but it is not that he has not traveled. Before he crossed, it was not just something that happened in the mountains, but he went to all kinds of deep mountains to shoot material, it was a very common thing.

Although he hasn't endured hardships for a long time, Yun Yanhui is by no means lacking in strong will, how could he fall off the chain like this.

The temperature on the mountain is low, the valleys are shrouded in mist, and the forests are full of insects and beasts. However, among the people present, the Miao people all have secret medicines for deworming, which are a bit better than those made by Imperial Physician Wang. Lended to others to smear.

Yun Yanhui is very fond of this thing. He used to have the sequelae of fear of insects. He can ward off insects, but it is useless against ordinary insects. With this medicine, it seems that his defense has been supplemented. , or long-term purchase.

After trekking in the mountains for three days, the Miao Cai who led the way said: "It's almost there."

In fact, he doesn't need to say it, everyone can see it.

According to Yun Yanhui's experience, this place is at least five degrees lower than the temperature at the bottom of the mountain. There is a gurgling river, and most importantly, you can see the terraced fields that have been harvested.

Zhou Huilin had never seen terraced fields, and he looked shocked.

Yunyan went back to the side and said calmly, "The Hehua fish in Guizhou are raised in these terraced fields."

Zhou Huilin naturally thought he knew it from the Miao people, but in fact, because Yun Yan returned, Zhou Huilin thought that all Miao people would raise Hehua fish, Zhou Huilin glanced at him and said, "Would that make it worse? Delicious?"

"I can't say that." Yun Yan smiled back, then she restrained herself and patted the little tiger's head, "Let's go faster and get to the stockade before dark."

Little Tiger's stockade is already the closest to the outside world. It would take three days to get there, not to mention other stockades.

When twilight closes, there is a relatively flat area in front of you, at least there are mud roads.

The group met a Miao man who was driving a flock home. The shepherd Miao man was holding a stick in his hand. There was a bell on the neck of his head sheep, making a crisp sound, and the sound of the sheep echoed in the valley. .

The Miao people who led the way were refreshed, greeted the shepherd, and asked him eagerly in Miao language how the little tiger's father was doing.

The shepherd was also very excited to see them, saying that the little tiger's father's condition was getting worse and worse, but it was still fine.

When the little tiger heard it, he was about to whimper again.

Yunyan turned back to her head and hurriedly took the little tiger from Miaoren's back and began to coax him.

When they went up the mountain, they left the horses at the foot of the mountain, but after walking for a while, they could see the local people driving a few horses again. The Miao people who led the way borrowed the horses. There is already a road here. Everyone simply rode to the stockade.

……

Before it got dark, I finally arrived at the little tiger's hometown.

As far as the eye can see, most of the houses in the entire stockade are made of bamboo, because the ground is uneven, and most of them are scattered. And the people here, all dressed as Miao people, cast curious and vigilant glances at a few foreign Han people.

As soon as the little tiger entered the stockade, he broke free from Yun Yanhui's embrace and ran towards his house. There were two people, and when they ran out, they remembered that Yun Yan went back to them and no one was taking care of them, so they stopped and ran back, it was chaos.

After the two returned, they were also at a loss, as if they didn't know what to do. Because they suddenly remembered that the chieftain had ordered that outsiders who came to the stockade should not be allowed to wander around, but had to be taken to a special place.

However, this Yun Yanhui is the benefactor of the little master again. The chieftain said to respect him, and he is also a Miao person, not to mention a doctor. Now, should he take him to that place to wait for the chieftain to see them, or should he take him with him? to the patient?

At this time, the people in the stockade also gathered around and looked at them.

Yun Yanhui reluctantly said to the two men in Miao dialect: "Is there a place to discuss matters in the stockade? I have your majesty's oral order here to announce to the chieftain."

The two of them breathed a sigh of relief, nodded quickly, raised their chests, one led them in one direction, and the other reported to the chieftain.

And the fluent Miao dialect of Yun Yan, who is clearly dressed as a Han Chinese, also attracted the attention of many local Miao people, as if they were seeing some rare animals, they dared not approach, but they followed the crowd all the way.

Zhou Huilin's scalp was numb. He felt that those people's eyes were weird, and they were still whispering something in a language he didn't understand. He followed closely. It is also slow, and he is always separated by a distance, not in contact with them, which makes him particularly uncomfortable.

"What are they talking about?" Zhou Huilin frowned and asked Yun Yan back, "Haven't they met Han people?"

Zhou Huilin doesn't know, in terms of frequency, it's not much different from never seeing it. If it weren't for something, the people in the stockade might only exchange the mountain for salt and other things once a year, and there are usually fixed groups of people who take up the task of dealing with outsiders. Therefore, there are indeed some people in Zhaizi who have never seen Han people, let alone Zhou Huilin. Compared with the local Han people in Guizhou, there are also some differences.

Yunyan glanced back at Zhou Huilin and said earnestly, "Be careful, don't walk around alone for a few days here, or you may be tricked by the Miao girl."

The corner of Zhou Huilin's mouth twitched, showing a look of disdain.

Yun Yanhui added: "It's also possible for an old bachelor to catch you back..."

Zhou Huilin stared at Yun Yanhui, watching what he was going to say.

Yunyan replied: "...Ploughing."

Zhou Huilin rolled his eyes.
