Chapter 493 494 The So-Called Oath

Mr. Ningxiang waved to him, and Mr. Yang went over to him. Mr. Ningxiang whispered in his ear, "I have hidden some treasures. As long as you help me take care of them, I don't ask for anything else. I just ask them to take care of me." Exiled to a better place, as long as you help me handle it, I will tell you the treasures hidden elsewhere."

Mr. Yang lowered his head and swore in a low voice, "Madam, don't worry, I will do my best to help you get it done. If you violate it, I will be struck by lightning."

Ning Xiangjun nodded with satisfaction after hearing this, "I have hidden a bag of gold leaves in the corner of the yard, in the flower bed planted with epiphyllum. I will tell you the other treasures when the matter is settled. When you come to see me."

Mr. Yang's heart was warmed by the words "Golden Leaf", and his voice was full of affection, "Madam, I will do my best."

Ning Xiangjun looked at Mr. Yang with relief and said gratefully: "Thank you, sir."

The cell leader shouted in a low voice, "Let's go quickly, the inspectors are coming."

"Madam, please rest assured and wait for my good news."

After Mr. Yang came out of the prison, he dusted himself off and looked at the sky, feeling that everything was so beautiful.

With a smile on his face, he went to the restaurant to eat and then walked slowly towards Jiangjun Street.

When I arrived at Jiangjun Street, I found a corner near Xiangjun's Mansion until midnight. I climbed over the wall and entered Xiangjun's Mansion. In the flower bed planted with epiphyllum, I found the small bag that Ning Xiangjun said. After opening it, I saw that it was full of A pack of golden leaves.

Mr. Yang's hands shook uncontrollably, and he hugged the bag to his chest, the smile in his eyes almost overflowing.

"After giving up more than a dozen taels of silver, I should be satisfied with this package. Madam Xiangjun, just wait patiently!"

Mr. Yang carefully tied the bag to his body, climbed over the wall and disappeared into the night.

***

The three members of the Zhang family had a good sleep in the inn. When they got up early the next morning, they waited for more than an hour, but no one saw Mr. Yang.

Zhang Defa felt something was wrong and went downstairs to ask the shopkeeper for news about Mr. Yang.

The shopkeeper glanced at him and said, "That gentleman has not come back since he left. Sir, do you want to stay tonight?"

Zhang Defa felt a little panicked, "Shopkeeper, Mr. Yang will definitely be back before noon."

The shopkeeper nodded, "Okay, I'll wait until noon. If the gentleman doesn't come, you will have to check out if you don't renew your room."

Zhang Defa nodded, took out a few coins and bought some steamed buns, and walked towards the guest room upstairs. Chen Zhaodi saw him carrying several steamed buns upstairs, "Master, Mr. Yang hasn't come yet?"

"Well! The shopkeeper said that Mr. Yang has never been back and asked us to pay the room fee again before noon, otherwise he will kick us out." Zhang Defa said with a frown.

Chen Zhaodi looked at Zhang Defa with the steamed buns and had no idea. After thinking about it, she said: "Logically speaking, they have spent so much effort and a lot of money, they will not leave us here."

"What happened?" Zhang Guisheng came in from outside the house and looked at the two of them, "Mr. Yang hasn't come back yet?"

Chen Zhaodi took a steamed bun and handed it to Zhang Guisheng, "Your father and I were talking about this!"

"Mr. Yang hasn't been home for so long. He may have been delayed by something. He should be here after we finish eating."

Zhang Defa took a hard bite of the steamed bun and said, "I still don't think Mr. Yang will be able to take us to Kyoto and still ignore us here."

Zhang Guisheng said with a smile: "Yes! Let's eat and wait until Mr. Yang comes, then go out for a walk."

After the family of three finished eating the steamed buns, they stood at the window and watched for a while, watching the endless flow of people on the street. Seeing that noon was approaching, there was still no trace of Mr. Yang.

The innkeeper stood at the door and smiled politely, "Sir, the shopkeeper asked you if you want to renew your room?"

Zhang Defa hesitated for a moment, looked at the waiter and asked, "Brother, is there a Datong store?"

The smile on the waiter's face froze, "Datong Shop can only be found in Beicheng. You guys go to Beicheng to have a look."

Zhang Defa's heart dropped, "Thank you, little brother, let us tidy up and check out."

The family was standing on a busy street in Kyoto with a big bag on their shoulders, not knowing which direction to go.

Zhang Guisheng looked at his parents, still not believing that Mr. Yang would make such a joke with them. He optimistically pointed to the corner of the inn and said to the two of them: "Mom and dad, let's go sit there and wait. If we go too far, Mr. Yang It will be troublesome if you can’t find us when you come.”

The old couple nodded and sat down at the corner of the street.

The family was worried, and when it was getting dark, they still didn't see Mr. Yang.

Zhang Defa looked at the sky and touched the only two pieces of silver in his pocket. He frowned and discussed with Zhang Guisheng, "Guisheng, I think Mr. Yang will probably not come to pick us up. I think it's better to pick him up while it's still dark." Find a place to stay for one night and wait until tomorrow.”

Zhang Guisheng flatly refused, "I won't leave. I want to wait here for Mr. Yang to take me to see the doctor."

Chen Zhaodi made a 'bang' sound and kept the bag on the bottom, "How could such a person take us from Tongzhou to Kyoto and then leave us here without care?"

Zhang Defa thought about the incident from beginning to end, and felt that no one would put so much effort into harming his family.

"No, we can't wait like this. I'll go find the innkeeper and find out."

"Dad, I'll go with you." Zhang Guisheng got up and followed Zhang Defa to the inn.

Zhang Defa ignored the matter of Li Yu's family and told the shopkeeper about Mr. Yang's bringing their family from Tongzhou to Kyoto.

After hearing this, the shopkeeper felt that what happened to the Zhang family was unheard of. After taking a look at Zhang Defa, he felt that his family did not seem to be loyal and honest.

I thought: There is nothing to gain from a family that can't even afford to stay in an inn. Why did they spend so much effort to trick you from Tongzhou to Kyoto? This family must not be telling the truth.

For such a dishonest person, he didn't want to say more, and smiled lightly, "Guest sir, there are countless people named Yang in the whole capital. I advise you to find a place to settle down. There are officers and soldiers patrolling the streets at night, and you can catch them if they want to." Going to jail."

Zhang Guisheng thought for a moment and asked: "Shopkeeper, where does Mr. Zhou, the Minister of Household Affairs, live on East Street? We are from the same village."

The innkeeper shook his head, "There is a large area on East Street, where the rich and powerful live. I am a small innkeeper, but I don't know where the Minister of Revenue lives. I will find out if I go there tomorrow and find out."

"Thank you so much, shopkeeper." Zhang Guisheng thanked the shopkeeper with his hands.

The shopkeeper looked at Zhang Guisheng limping out, thought about it and said, "Guest sir, you are from Tongzhou, you can stay at the Tongzhou Guild Hall."

Zhang Defa turned around and thanked: "I miss you so much, shopkeeper. Please tell him when Mr. Yang is here. We are going to the Tongzhou Guild Hall."

The shopkeeper nodded and watched the father and son walk out.

Zhang Defa and his family went to Tongzhou Guild Hall and saw that living here was really cheap. They counted the money in their pockets and rented a Datongbu to stay.

Zhang Defa bought some steamed buns, asked the shopkeeper for some boiling water, ate the steamed buns and went to Datong Shop separately.
