After breaking off the marriage, the Zhuangyuan Lang who was picked up was dressed weakly every day

Chapter 128 Baba follows
Meng Ziqing's attendants are all elite generals selected by him personally and have followed him for many years. They are both skilled and agile.

Following Meng Changqing's instructions, the carriage of the Duke's Palace followed Cai Xizhu's simple and even shabby ox-cart at a short distance. The attendants watched in all directions at the same time, watching every move around their husband calmly.

Soon, they discovered something strange.

One of the attendants found a shadow where the carriage was turning, hid his skills, and quietly jumped into the shadows.

After finding out what was going on, he stepped forward and reported to Meng Changqing: "Mr. Lang, the second husband of the Li family will be following us now. The distance is not close, but when we are faster, he is also faster, and when we are slower, he is also slower. It’s not like he went into town alone.”

Meng Changqing tapped the table irritably, then raised his eyes with a stern expression.

The scene of Li Jiahao pulling Cai Xizhu was in front of his eyes for a long time. For him, the target Li Jiahao was following now was Cai Xizhu.

Meng Changqing immediately sneered: "You are really evil-minded."

The attendant asked him: "Should we stop his car?"

With his car between the two of them, Li Jiahao would not succeed even if he was thief-minded and courageous. Meng Changqing waved his hand, "No need."

The wheels rolled, making a rumbling sound on the county road between Qingshan County and Lin'an Prefecture. After a while, the three cars arrived at the gate of Lin'an Prefecture.

The ox cart stopped briefly due to the interrogation of the city gate guards. Cai Xizhu thought she had arrived home, but when she looked up, she realized that the destination was wrong.

There were bright lights all around, and people were coming and going. The little lady, who had just come back from deep thought, had eyes that changed from confusion to surprise, and her brows went from frowning to flattening, and then to frowning.

She looked at Shi Shi, who was driving. A child in his early ten years was looking up at the lanterns hanging at the city gate with his little face raised.His eyes were bright and his joy was beyond words.Cai Xizhu belatedly remembered Shitou's question before the ox cart started, and opened her mouth, but after all, she did not say that she would go home.

She was not in the mood to play, so she wanted to destroy other people's dreams?It's really not necessary.

"Sister, let's go in and look at the lanterns. Is one hour enough?" Shitou asked her excitedly.

Cai Xizhu recalled the past experience when Cai Yu took her to the city to watch lanterns. It was the tenth year since they settled in the south. It was also the first time she saw such bright lanterns. That day she pestered Cai Yu to buy them for her. I learned a lot of interesting stuff and had a lot of fun.

The beautiful memories were still vivid in her mind. Not only did Cai Xizhu not have the thought of experiencing that exciting feeling again, but she remembered that Cai Yu stayed in Li Mansion to take care of the patients during the New Year, and she felt a little depressed.

Facing Shi Shi's joyful gaze, Cai Xizhu took out some money from her purse and handed it to him, saying: "That's enough. But I'm a little tired today, so I won't go with you. You can go play by yourself and buy what you want." We will meet again at Qingbo Gate in an hour."

She solemnly warned him: "You must remember the way back and don't get lost."

Shitou finally found a peaceful place with no worries about food and housing. How could he be willing to lose himself again? He immediately nodded heavily and said, "Sister, don't worry. My godfather and I have come to the city many times to get medicinal materials. I know it." road!"

Cai Xizhu touched his head and said, "Go."

After Shitou left, Cai Xizhu walked aimlessly on the street alone.

She looked at the lamp for a while, and for a while she looked at the ground. The lights were bright, and not even her shadow was left on the ground. After a while, her interest in the lanterns, which was not very strong, completely disappeared. As she walked, She stayed away from the lively crowd and walked to the embankment path beside the Qingfen River.

How lively the long street is and how bright the lights are, but how quiet and dark the river path is.

Cai Xizhu, who grew up in Qingshui Village, was not afraid of the dark. She walked directly into the dark night.

The husband who followed her was different. He had been pampered since he was a child. Even Xuewu, the only one who had experienced hardships, was taught by a specialized master. In order not to expose his whereabouts, he refused to follow Cai Xizhu's route and followed Cai Xizhu's route alone. When stepping on the snow-frozen ground, it feels like one foot is deep and one foot is shallow, and there is a sway when walking.

When he had walked less than half a mile, he stumbled on a small stone on the road, and Meng Changqing staggered immediately. If he hadn't reacted very quickly, he used the folding fan to tap the ground and jumped, he would have fallen down.

After finally standing still, Meng Changqing felt a complicated feeling in his heart when he looked at the back of his head in the darkness in front of him, which was completely unaware of what he had experienced.

He was both glad that she didn't notice his embarrassment, and he also felt that she had no idea how much precious time and effort he had sacrificed to protect her because he was following her in the dark without being noticed by her. Energy seems like wasted effort.

He lowered his eyes to straighten his muddy robe, but he didn't notice that the young lady in front of him had turned east at the fork and walked into the alley on the east side.

Meng Changqing tidied himself up, looked up, and his face froze.

Cai Xizhu is missing!

Meng Changqing's heart dropped. Li Jiahao had been following Cai Xizhu eagerly. Now that he didn't see Cai Xizhu, his first reaction was that Li Er had succeeded.

At this moment, he no longer cared about his pretentious demeanor. He put the folding fan on his waist, lifted up the hem of his robe, and chased forward in the darkness.

The cold wind blew against his ears, and the water of the Qingfen River was also rushing. However, Meng Changqing felt that compared with these movements, the sound of his own heart beat like a drum, which made his heart skip a beat.

There was a sadness that the pearl was about to be lost, and Meng Changqing felt a little regretful: There were some things that he shouldn't have dealt with in the future.

He kept chasing forward, and soon he reached the long street.

He ran to the bright hall and knew that this was not the place where Li Jiahao had robbed people. He immediately turned around and fell back to where he came from.

Because he made the mistake of running a long way and gave up the middle position between Cai Xizhu and Li Jiahao, Li Jiahao who was following him took it seriously and met that person, entering the alley on the east side of the river embankment. , Cai Xizhu found that it was a dead end and walked back to the river embankment road.

In the half-darkness, a strong black figure suddenly appeared in front of her. Cai Xizhu was so frightened that she took a step back and screamed "Ah".

When Meng Changqing chased her back, she heard her cry.

He immediately ran forward a few steps quickly, jumped up, and kicked Li Jiahao in the abdomen, knocking him down hard to the ground.Li Jiahao fell to the ground and before he could cry out in pain, the next moment, Meng Changqing raised his hand and slapped him hard on the face.

"Li Jiahao, you want to die!"

Li Jiahao's fat face was slapped and burned, and his abdomen was kicked in pain. However, at this time, he felt that what really made him hurt and angry was Meng Changqing's naming words.

He was in disbelief: "Cousin, you knew it was me and you still attacked me?"

Meng Changqing pulled Cai Xizhu to stand behind him, looked down at Li Jiahao, and said coldly: "Why, you are so shameless, why should I applaud you?"

Li Jiahao took it back angrily, "I'm just following you," before he could say it, because he suddenly heard Meng Changqing's anxious question: "Zhuzhu, where did he touch you?"

Beads.

What a term of endearment.

When the voice reached her ears, Cai Xizhu's eyelashes trembled slightly. The lanterns in the hands of Li Jiahao's entourage who followed him got closer and closer to them, and the light became brighter and brighter. She saw Meng Changqing's face facing her sideways, half in the light and half in the dark. , Ming's side, under the thick eyelashes, are affectionate eyes.

She opened her mouth slightly, surprised and happy.

She didn't answer. Standing in his shadow, he couldn't see her expression, so Meng Changqing asked again: "Where did I touch you?"

Cai Xizhu finally answered him: "Nowhere. He didn't touch me anywhere."

It is true that Cai Xizhu told the truth, but in Meng Changqing's mind, Li Jiahao followed Cai Xizhu from Li Mansion to this point with evil intentions. He failed to succeed now because he appeared in time.

Meng Changqing sneered, turned to Li Jiahao, raised his foot and kicked him in the leg, "You are really capable, you followed him here."

Li Jiahao's entourage hurriedly came from a distance. They were about to teach the person who offended their husband, but they saw that the other person was Meng Changqing. After they looked at each other, they chose to help Li Jiahao up from the ground first.

But as soon as they helped Li Jiahao up, a powerful kick suddenly came from the opposite side, not only kicking his husband, but also shaking them all back.

It can be seen how much effort was used.

As a result, Li Jiahao was the only one around who could not bear the pain and groaned.

Meng Changqing had no intention of dealing with Li Jiahao anymore, so he took Cai Xizhu's wrist and strode away.

Being beaten, slapped, and kicked in front of his entourage, Li Jiahao was a person who was used to being fawned over. In the past, no matter how timid he was in front of Meng Changqing, he now had the opposite attitude and became fearless.

He chuckled behind Meng Changqing and said, "That's true! Not only does my cousin know my fourth younger brother and sister, he also has a close friendship with her. The relationship is extraordinary!"

This was the first time that Li Jiahao dared to confront him like this. Meng Changqing looked at Li Jiahao who wanted to ridicule him but did not dare to say anything, and she despised this pervert in her heart.

He sneered and asked, "When did Li Zejin get married? Why didn't the Duke of Qi know about it?"

Li Jiahao choked.

Then he said: "She is engaged to my fourth brother!"

Meng Changqing had some free time and said in a very calm voice: "It's just a promise, not a real marriage."

Li Jiahao: "You want to..."

Before he finished speaking, he fell silent.

Meng Changqing chuckled, "What do I want?"

Be loved.

——Li Jiahao only dared to think these words in his heart but did not dare to say them out.

No matter how rich the Li family was, they were just as insignificant as ants in front of the Duke of Qi. The Li family's fortune was due to his mother Wang Wan's natal relationship.But although Wang Wan is also a daughter of the Wang family, she is the least valued of the Wang family.

To put it bluntly, whether it is his mother or his father, they have to behave with their tail between their legs in front of people like the Wang family and the Duke of Qi.

It is rare that Li Jiahao, who has always been dull-minded, has such an awareness.

He gave up his angry words and changed the subject: "My cousin wants to escort Madam Cai, he is really kind-hearted."

He suddenly became cowardly again. Meng Changqing smiled sarcastically and walked away without dealing with him again.

Two figures, one tall and one short, disappeared into the night. Li Jiahao stopped in place for a long time.

The attendant saw that he was dirty and reminded him: "Lang Jun, let's go back too? It's very cold here."

Before leaving, Li Jiahao pointed to a short but nimble follower and ordered: "Follow me and take a closer look at what they are going to do."

*
It was such a follow-up that changed Cai Xizhu's future destiny.
