Save the Bachelor of Heaven

Chapter 837: 839 [Crossing the Sea]

After asking the prince for leave, Xiang Nan immediately hired three carriages, took his family, apprentices, gold and silver, and set off back to Cangzhou.

In order to avoid danger on the road, he also asked Smith to buy two revolvers and two hundred rounds of ammunition. With these two guns, Xiang Nan didn't pay attention to the small group of bandits.

After the three carriages left the capital, halfway through the journey, Xiang Nan told the driver to turn to Jinmen.

"Old man, what are you going to Jinmen for?" Hu Suhua asked puzzled, "Didn't you go back to Cangzhou to worship your ancestors?"

"Yeah, Brother Xi, why are you going to Jinmen all of a sudden?" Sai Xishi didn't understand.

"Didn't I tell you before that although the capital is good, it is not a place to live for a long time. Although Wang Tianhe is dead now, those imperial doctors still refuse to let me go, and they still want to trouble me.

In the past two months, they have let their children drop out of school, and they have refused to accept our pills from Yixiaotang. If you don't leave, you don't know what kind of conspiracy you will play in the future.

What's more, I don't think Prince Jing's reform is unreliable. Our emperor is very useless. Concubine Zhen is injured, and he can't even order the imperial doctor to order him. Do you think it is possible for him to succeed in reform?

Once it fails, it will be unlucky for Prince Jing, and we will also be unlucky. So, go now while you can, so as not to be involved in the future. "Xiang Nan explained.

"So that's the case. You should have explained it to me earlier, I still haven't brought a lot of things." Hu Suhua complained after hearing this.

"That's right, Brother Xi, I haven't brought a lot of things with me. Besides, I eat a lot and still haven't said goodbye to many people." Sai Xishi also complained.

"We can't tell the outside world about this, we won't be able to leave if we do." Xiang Nan waved his hand.

"You can't even trust us?" Hu Suhua and Sai Xishi said dissatisfied when they heard this.

"It's not that I can't trust you. It's just that the fewer people who know about this matter, the better." Xiang Nan said quickly, "Secrets are used to make things secret, and words are used to reveal failures."

Hearing what he said, although Hu Suhua and Sai Xishi still have some opinions, but after all, the rice has become porridge, so there is nothing to do.

"Then will we be in Jinmen from now on?" Sai Xishi asked again.

"No, Jinmen is only a day's journey from the capital, and it's too close. We can't stay in Jinmen, we'll take a boat to Macau from Jinmen." Xiang Nan explained.

Macau was the only place that was not affected by the flames of war during World War II. Moreover, most of the people there are Chinese, with the same script, understandable language, can communicate, and are not easily discriminated against.

In fact, Xiang Nan originally wanted to go to the United States or Canada, where the war would not be affected. But as a Chinese, it is easy to be racially discriminated and suppressed there.

Therefore, in comparison, Macau is better.

"Macau?! Where is Macau?" Hu Suhua asked puzzled.

"Macau is in eastern Guangdong, and it is now occupied by the Portuguese." Xiang Nan explained, "When we get there, we won't be under the jurisdiction of the Qing Dynasty."

"Oh." Both Hu Suhua and Sai Xishi nodded.

...

After walking for a day and arriving in Jinmen, Xiang Nan and his party met Smith, and then took the English steamer Queen Victoria to Macau.

Smith has been studying medicine with Xiang Nan for half a year, getting along day and night, and has accumulated a profound friendship.

Moreover, Smith was amazed by Xiang Nan's amazing medical skills, and he wanted to learn it. Therefore, knowing that he was going to develop in the south, he also applied to accompany him there.

Xiang Nan knew that it would save a lot of trouble if he, a foreigner, accompanied him on the road, so he was naturally welcome.

After boarding the boat, only Defu, Shengzi, Luzi, Yu'er, Ruixin and other people knew that the master didn't take them back to their hometown to worship their ancestors, but took them away.

For a while, several people shed tears of reluctance.

"Master, didn't we stay well in the capital, why did we run away?" Defu asked puzzled.

The other apprentices also looked at Xiang Nan, and they were also puzzled.

Xiang Nan then explained the truth of [A companion is like a tiger], "The longer we stay in the capital, the more risky we will be. So I discussed with your wife and decided to leave the capital and go to Macau. It is better than this side of the capital." Be safe, and our lives will be better."

"Then what about Beijing Yixiaotang, Food for the Heaven and Peide Medical School?" Telford said reluctantly.

"What can I do, I can only give it up." Xiang Nan waved his hands and said, "Son, you can only gain if you give them up. If you don't give them up, we will be tied up in the capital forever. At that time, we will be in bad luck. Don't believe me, two years at the latest, you will know that what I said is true."

"Then what are we going to Macau for?" Telford frowned.

"It's still a pharmacy, or a restaurant." Xiang Nan nodded and said, "Don't worry, when the time comes, you will still be the doctor in charge."

Hearing what he said, Defu just breathed a sigh of relief.

...

Although Ruixin married her husband, she couldn't help crying very sad when she learned that she was going to leave the capital and go to Macau.

"Miss Rockchip, don't cry. I left some money for your family, which will be enough for them to spend for a long time." Xiang Nan comforted her, "Besides, we will come back after the matter is over."

Rockchip felt better after hearing what he said.

...

The steamship traveled on the road for nearly ten days before finally sailing from Jinmen to Macau.

Fortunately, there was no danger on board, and the journey was smooth.

After arriving in Macau, Xiang Nan entrusted Smith to come forward to purchase houses and shops in preparation for long-term residence in Macau.

With Smith, a foreigner, who came forward, whether it was buying a house, buying a storefront, or registering a household registration, or registering a company, it took half the effort to get twice the result with half the effort. Therefore, within a month, Xiang Nan's family settled in Macau smoothly.

...

At the same time, Xiang Nan hadn't come back more than a month after he left, which made Prince Jing a little anxious.

"Where did Xilaile go? In a month, let alone go back to Cangzhou to worship the ancestors, even if he went to Sichuan and Yunnan to worship the ancestors, he should come back." He complained to Lu Zhengming.

"Yeah, I also think he's gone for a long time." Lu Zhengming nodded and said, he was so busy with reform these days that he didn't have time to think about it.

Now that the prince reminded him, he realized that Xiang Nan had indeed been gone for a long time.

"Zhengming, go to Cangzhou to see if he is afraid of staying in the capital and dare not come back." Prince Jing immediately ordered, "If so, you have to tie him back to me."

Lu Zhengming nodded, and then rode to Cangzhou.

When I went there to look, I found that the door of Yixiaotang was closed, and there was no one at all.

After inquiring again, I found out that Xiang Nan had never been back to Cangzhou, let alone worshiping his ancestors.

He was taken aback, thinking that Xiang Nan and his party were killed halfway, so he hurriedly investigated the robbery and murder cases in the past month, but nothing came out.

Then he returned to the capital and investigated the car dealerships in the capital, and finally found out that Xiang Nan and his party went to Jinmen.

In this way, he understood that it was false to dare to love Xiang Nan to worship his ancestors, and it was true to run away.
