Jinyi Night Walk

Fang Xiaoru left in a rage, and the marriage of the two families naturally fell through.

Xia Shi has already made up her mind about this ending. After Xu Minger boarded the winning chess building and Fang Xiaoru made a mockery of it—it was an inevitable ending, and even the other forms of alliances between the Fang and Xu families were also blocked. died.

Fang Xiaoru is a character who would rather bend than bend. He was not a character who could endure humiliation for the sake of the overall situation. Besides, this person has always been such a burden. Although he needs the support of the Zhongshan Palace now, in his heart, once the alliance is formed, the support he will give to the Zhongshan Palace will be far away. If it was more than he could get, how could he accept such humiliation.

What's more, those civil and military officials present brought together the forces of various factions in the court. No matter how fiercely they fought in the court, they could not be disrespectful in such matters of weddings and funerals. There is no need to completely tear face , so today they all came.Now that there is an opportunity to take advantage of the refusal of the little princess to destroy the alliance between Fang Xiaoru and the Zhongshan Palace, they are not fools, each of them is far more sophisticated than someone like Xia Shi in the officialdom, and they are better at seizing opportunities. Will they let it go? ?

Unsurprisingly, these veterans in the officialdom saw the opportunity, and immediately used all kinds of tricks that appeared to be persuasive but actually added fuel to the fire, and successfully drove Fang Xiaoru away.

Fang Xiaoru, as he puts it now, is a Fang-level university professor who has taught books for half his life. He still teaches classical literature, and he has been studying in the pile of old papers.

Who are these officials? They have been in the officialdom for half their lives. They have been able to work under Zhu Yuanzhang, a stubborn old man who doesn't rub the sand in his eyes. Who is not a human being? Comparable to them.So if they didn't persuade him to return it, they would just return it. The more they persuaded Fang Xiaoru, the angrier he became.

Mu En stood there, listening to a sentence here, and we said a sentence there. He made up everything, but he understood the process. Seeing that the gift could not be delivered, Mu En hurriedly called out to the four palace guards. Say hello, stick things back again.

In a short time, through the mouths of civil and military officials and their servants, and even every coachman and bearer, the incident that happened in Shengqi Tower quickly spread in Jinling City.

Luo Kedi only smiled slightly when he heard about this incident. He was also happy to see the result of destroying the Fangxu alliance. He felt that this result was very good.But when the person who monitored Xu Zengshou came to report Xu Zengshou's actions, he brought along a piece of news: the princess did not return to the Zhongshan Palace, and Wei Guogong was answering congratulatory guests at the Shengqi Building, but he didn't know the news.

The person in charge of monitoring Xu Zengshou was Ye An, and he sent the news back.Luo Kedi was startled when he heard the news, and didn't think deeply about it, he just asked casually: "Presumably, she also knew that she would be punished by her elder brother when she went back, so she went to live with relatives and friends?"

Ye Andao: "The princess got into a carriage when she came out of the Shengqi building. Looking at its appearance, it didn't look like the Zhongshan king's mansion was driving, and there were no servants accompanying him. Zhuo Zhi felt strange, because he saw that the governor Xu was still there. Upstairs in Shengqi, it might not be possible to leave in a short while—so I asked two people to follow."

Rock couldn't resist: "What's the result?"

Ye An took a breath, and said: "As a result, the car went through the streets and alleys, and it seemed that many people came to meet it. After using the method of Lang Duoyao's tracking, our people... actually lost it."

Luo Kedi raised his eyebrows lightly: "Oh! Did you lose track?"

There are many ways for a car to get rid of tracking, such as intentionally walking a narrow alley that only allows one car to pass, and be prepared in advance. As soon as the car on this side exits, another car will immediately drive in from the opposite side and block the village on purpose. If you live in an alley and make the people behind you unable to keep up, then it only takes a moment to track the target and it will disappear.

There are many similar methods, and Luo Kedi didn't hesitate to ask. The problem is that the people he sent are by no means easy to deal with. The methods of tracking and anti-tracking are quite clever, and they will lose them. So what did the other party do? The preparation and the power used cannot be ignored. Not only must there be huge power, but this person must be absolutely no outsider in this line of work.

Ye An said: "Yes, I lost it. When they chased after them again, they saw seven or eight identical cars driving in different directions. In a hurry, the two stopped one of them, and they ended up questioning each other. , they are all cars owned by Ping An Automobile Dealer."

"Then this Ping An Automobile..."

"I went to investigate. Someone rented a whole ten cars with a fake identity. The clues are broken, so I can't continue the investigation."

Luo Kedi was silent for a moment——Xu Ming'er turned home, it doesn't matter!It's just that the youngest sons and daughters of the noble family are at odds with the family members, but Xu Ming'er also has a big brother-in-law, who is the all-powerful King Yan, and if I contact him now, I'm afraid his behavior on the Shengqi Tower will be different. easy.

After she refused to marry in public in the Shengqi building and destroyed the alliance between the Zhongshan Palace and Fang Xiaoru's family, someone actually used so many people to help her escape, even Jin Yiwei's spies could shake the ghost...

Luo Kedi got up and walked around for a while, his eyes gradually became sharper, he stood up, and said slowly: Lu Yan Wang's secret spy!It must be Yan Wang's secret spy who is causing trouble-immediately gather people to find her whereabouts, maybe we can find the person we have been trying to catch but can't catch from her! "

As soon as he said this, Chen Dong rushed to report out of breath: "My lord, the envoys of the Shanhou Kingdom are about to leave the capital, and Meng Shilang is arranging vehicles to escort them out of the city."

"Ok?"

Luo Kedi's heart was in a hurry: "Xu Miao's role was to destroy the marriage between the Xu family and the Fang family, and then he was picked up by others, and escaped cleverly. Then the envoy of the country behind the mountain left Beijing, and not long before, Xu Miaojin had gone to Hong Kong. Lusi has seen the prince of the Queen of the Mountain, from this point of view..."

Luo Kedi's eyes lit up, and he blurted out, "Quickly, stop the mission of the country behind the mountain immediately!"

Shangfang Gate—a group of cars slowly exited the city gate.

Sitting in the car, Meng Fusheng said with a smile to He Tianyang who was beside him: "For several months, Meng and the prince have gotten along very well. Today, the prince returns to the country, and Meng is a little reluctant to part."

He Tianyang said: "Xiao Wang is the same. Thanks to Mr. He's care all the time, after a few years, Tianyang will definitely come to pay homage to Shangguo again, and we will meet Mr. He at that time."

As he said that, a jade pendant had already slipped along his sleeve.

"It's a small country in a small country, and it's an isolated place overseas. There's really not much to show for it. When Xiao Wang returned to the country this time, he specially bought a lot of gifts from his father's gold and jade workshop in the city. Seeing that this jade pendant is extremely gorgeous, I also bought it, and gave it to my lord today, as a small gift to express my gratitude to my lord..."

"Oh! Prince, this is not allowed. It is the official's responsibility to entertain the prince. How can I accept the prince's thank you gift?"

He Tianyang said sternly: "I don't have any plans for this thing. I just hope that Mr. Meng will think about others when he sees things. He will remember the friendship between you and me, and remember that there is a friend called Xiao Wang in foreign lands. The king has expressed his affection, and please accept it!"

"This..." This..." Since the prince said so, it's inconvenient for me to refuse—thank you for your kindness, the prince, I accept it."

When the jade pendant was handed to him, there was a slight flash of light, and it was white and glistening, it was indeed a piece of beautiful jade, and the texture was exceptionally clear, it could be called the best.When the heavy beautiful jade was in his hands, he felt even more warm and greasy to the touch. Meng Fusheng rubbed the jade pendant twice with his thumb in his sleeve, feeling its delicate texture, and thought to himself: "It really is a top-quality jade. This texture must be a Hetian mutton fat jade, gold has a price but jade is priceless, this is a priceless treasure!"

Thinking in his heart, his sleeves drooped down, and Fang Yangzhi's jade pendant slipped into the bag, Meng Fusheng pinched it again, and then he felt at ease.When talking with He Tianyang again, he was really reluctant to part with him.

"Stop! Stop! Stop and check!"

As soon as the car left the gate of Shangfang, and before it reached the ten-mile long pavilion, several officials greeted it with their swords.

The officers and soldiers escorted by Honglu Temple reined in their horses and said angrily: "You're blind—didn't you see that this is the driver of Honglu Temple?"

The inspector said neither outstanding nor overbearing: "I'm sorry, Mou Zhi is also following orders, and the colleagues in Honglu Temple should be more considerate."

Meng Fusheng frowned, got up and walked out of the sedan chair, went to that stop, and shouted majestically: "What's the matter?"

"It's them, it's them, who abducted my daughter, my daughter..."

An old man with a white beard ran up staggeringly, beating his chest and feet, and crying loudly.

Surrounded by a group of men armed with knives and guns, looking at their clothes, they should be servants of Ying Tianfu. Among them is an official wearing an official uniform. The highest rank among these people should be theirs. boss.

It seems that this official is only in his thirties. Although he is only a fifth-rank official, he is in charge of local security, investigation and questioning at the foot of the emperor. The number of people is still large, so the authority is very strong. When seeing Meng Shilang, a third-rank official, he didn't seem cramped and flustered. Someone abducted his daughter—I have to investigate because of my duty—and please ask your lord to make it easier for me to send someone to search.”

"It's bullshit!"

Meng Shilang flicked his sleeves and said angrily: "This is the envoy of the country behind the mountain. He came to pay homage to the emperor of our country. He returned to the country today. I was escorted away by the emperor's order. You should dare to come to investigate. This is the crime of neglecting foreign envoys. Can you afford it?"

I don't think that pushing the official seems to be a bit of a "strength order", and he is not afraid-Yuan Sheng said: "The official is in charge of the criminal name of the government, and maintains the law and order of the capital. As long as you can get it! There are sufferers here today, just because they are foreign envoys, can't the lower officials find out? The lower officials are responsible, please don't embarrass the lower officials, and let the lower officials search. If there are civilian daughters hidden in the car, then I will take them all back and hand them over to Mr. Fu Yin. If the accusation is not true, I will just kowtow to you for apology."

"You are bold!"

Meng Shilang's duty is, how can he let him search the foreign envoy's vehicle? Besides, he is short-staffed, and he has just received a good jade pendant from someone else, so how can he not care about it? He was about to scold again when He Tianyang walked out of the car. Smiling and authentically said: "The behavior is magnanimous, naturally the heart is upright, the adult is protective, and the little Wang has the heart, if he wants to investigate, he will investigate.

Meng Fusheng glanced at him worriedly, and said hesitantly, "Prince..."..."

He Tianyang smiled and said: "My lord, don't worry, even though Xiao Wang is from a small country in Fanbang, he also learned the culture of the upper kingdom of heaven, how could he do such a criminal thing."

Only then did Meng Fusheng wave his hand, causing the escort officers and soldiers of Honglu Temple to step aside, and the pushing officer held his knife and led the white-bearded old man who complained carefully to check the cars one by one. The car has been checked in and out of the car, inside and outside the car, not to miss a place where people can hide, and even the walls and pedals have to be knocked and knocked to see if there is any interlayer .

More than a dozen large carts were searched, and all the servants and maidservants lined up on the ground, and the old man looked carefully one by one, but he couldn't find the old man's daughter. The old man blinked and blinked. Dazedly said: "That's right, the neighbor's idiot said that the old Cha's daughter was taken away by such a car, why can't anyone be seen?"

"Bastard! You sue foreign envoys, and I will punish you severely when you go back!"

The pushing officer was furious, scolded the old man severely, then turned to Meng Fusheng, said with a smile: "Master Shi Lang, the official is reckless, the one who turns back..."

Meng Fusheng sneered coldly, and said, "Turn around, I will go to Yingtian Mansion to meet your governor Wang Hongrui, and ask him how Lord Wang disciplines his subordinates! Hmph! Let's go!" Waved the convoy away.

Watching the convoy go away, the old man with white beard tore off his beard, and it was Chen Dongqiao playing him. Then he looked at Ye An, who was playing the pusher, and said with a wry smile, "What should we do now?"

Ye An shook his head, and said dejectedly: "Just go back and report the truth to your lord...". ———————————————————————————

At the same time, at the gate of Chaoyang Gate in Jinling City, people were queuing up to leave the city.

"How high is the city gate? Thirty-six feet high. Riding a white horse with a knife, a group of people walked under the gate..."

Children on the street clapped their hands and sang nursery rhymes, happy and carefree.

The people who are going to enter the city are on the left side of the passage, accept the inspection and pay the entry tax, and the people going out of the city are on the right side. The inspection is much looser than that of entering the city.

"What?"

The veteran who shouted was a native of Jinling, named Cui Yaya, who was in his early forties and hadn't mentioned his last wife yet, so he wasn't very strict about guarding the city, but he was very nervous when he saw a man who brought a big girl and a young wife out of the city. He leaned forward eagerly, but in fact he was just looking for an opportunity to strike up a conversation.

In front of him was a young man with a beard, in his early thirties, dressed in coarse cloth, carrying two empty bamboo baskets, and the most important thing was that he also brought a little village girl with her hair in a bun, with a thorn hairpin skirt and eyebrows. Please Muxiu, although she seems to have yellow pox, her pretty little face is actually ginger yellow, but it doesn't affect the beauty of her facial features at all.

Seeing the soldier guarding the city in a rough voice, with his eyes gouging out his body like a knife, the little village girl timidly grabbed the hem of his clothes and called out softly, "Uncle Teacher..." Brother Yi has never seen the appearance of a country girl in the world.

That branch nodded and bowed with a smile: "Master Jun, the villain went to the city to sell a few ducks, and he is about to go back."

The soldier guarding the door looked at them up and down, and at the empty bamboo basket, there were still a few duck feathers in it. There was really no reason to keep them away, so he shot his gun, waved his hand and said, "Go, go..."

The two hurried out.

"Uncle, that military master is so fierce..."

The little village girl yelled timidly, but there was a mischievous smile in her bright and bright eyes, as if she thought it was very funny.

The branch carrying the bamboo basket was like any honest countryman who didn't want to cause trouble, just kept his head down and walked forward, and reprimanded Xiao casually: "Don't talk nonsense, don't be naughty, next time uncle won't take you to the city to play. "

Behind him, Cui Yaya greedily stared at the little girl's twitching, seductive waist like a willow blowing in the wind, licked her lips, smiled obscenely, and said in the local dialect: "This little Panxi, she looks pretty good." Pretty ostentatious..."

Out of the city gate, the picker picked up the basket and quickened his pace. The little village girl ran and jumped behind to keep up with him. The little girl put her hands on her hips and panted, "Yang Xu, Slow down, I'm exhausted, I can't keep up!"

"Call uncle!"

Xia Shi vigilantly glanced around to see that there was no one around, so she gave her a hard look.

This little village girl is naturally Xu Ming'er. Xia Shi didn't ask her to dress up as a boy. She has no experience. The skin color and hairstyle changed a bit.

Xu Ming'er curled her lips and groaned with Chang Yin'er: "Uncle Jiang...you can't make it if you walk slowly, people can't keep up with you."

"Do you want me to carry you?"

"Yeah!"

"Think beautifully!"

"whispering sound!"

"Hurry up, there is a car ahead - get in the car, and I will take you to the riverside, and immediately board the boat and go to sea."

"Going to that island, are you going?"

"I won't go. I still have important things to do in Jinling, and I will come back."

"Then I won't go, you go with you."

"No reason!"

Xia Xun was annoyed: "That's not what you said when I promised to rescue you, you promised well, why did you change your mind again!"

Xu Ming'er said confidently: "I didn't know at the time that you wouldn't come with me. Last time you left me at Xie's house without a single acquaintance. I felt like I was in jail. Or, you sent me to Beiping sees my sister, and when I get there, at worst, I won’t show up, and my name and surname will not be revealed, and I think the news won’t get out and won’t affect our Xu family..."

"Stop messing around. I've gone through a lot of trouble arranging you to go to sea. Now the north is at war. There's no peace in this way. It's too difficult to send you all the way to Peiping. If you go by sea, it's winter again now." , it was engraved by the northeast wind, not to mention the difficulty of traveling by sea, I am afraid that your bones will not be able to bear the hardships along the way."

"Then I will follow you. If you don't have an accident, I will be safe. If you have an accident, I will still be safe. What else can big brother do to me? Hee hee, maybe I will come to save you then. "

"You..." Let me tell you, if you want to follow me, you can only pretend to be a village girl, always pretend to be a village girl, have no good clothes to wear, no good food to eat, sleep on a big earthen kang, live in a straw house, and... ""

"Okay, okay, I like this, I've never tried it, it's really fun..."

Xia Shi's threats were ineffective, so she had no choice but to hurry on her way.

Xu Ming'er crossed her waist again, and started to trot: "Yang Xu, walk slowly, you can't catch up! Uncle~uncle~~, uncle"..."!~!
