Chapter Ninety-Six: Go to another yard to cool off

Liu Shuangli was already familiar with the road to the cafeteria, and he could easily walk back and forth with his eyes closed.

Since the two female dragon guards in the same courtyard with her were sent out to perform tasks in the field, the backyard of the Yamen of the Zhenfu Division was like the front yard, and there was no female streamer to be seen again. Even such a light job as sprinkling and sweeping is a man's business in the courtyard gate of this important town, and now there is a girl, although her temperament looks a little stupid, but it also makes Liu Shuangli, who has been lonely for a long time, happy.

It is said that no matter how high the position of the average Long Xingwei is, because most of the things he does are dirty work, he usually does not find someone to serve him close before he has a family. The most common subordinates such as the long-term followers in the eyes of people with status are extremely rare here in Long Xingwei. Now that Liu Shuangli is with him, it makes his comrades look very novel.

But curiosity is curiosity, as soon as I heard that it was personally arranged by Qianhu for a long time, no one dared to ask more.

Liu Shuangli is not an eventful person, and if others don't ask, she won't say it. After leading Lan'er to eat, he came back and arranged his accommodation, and gave a few simple instructions, and the day passed like this.

Although this Shen Lan'er is a little stupid and a little cowardly, she is a person with strong adaptability. Seeing that Liu Shuangli was an excellent talker, he was not a few years older than himself, and after spending the beginning of his strange timidity, his temperament gradually let go. Coupled with Liu Shuangli's deliberate guidance, in a few days, as long as she doesn't leave this small courtyard, when there are no outsiders, the little girl is like being in her own home, and Liu Shuangli is almost up and down.

In a few days, the two got along like sisters.

"Lan'er, after breakfast, go to the bottom of my box and pick up two sets of men's clothes. Early in the morning, as soon as he washed his face, Liu Shuangli commanded.

"What are you going to do, Miss?" Lan'er wondered.

"Go out and have fun. Liu Shuangli said with a smile.

"Go out?β€”why men's clothing?" Lan'er was puzzled.

"It's easier to dress in men's clothes. Liu Shuangli chuckled.

Although she will be recognized as a daughter every time she wears men's clothes, the real use is not much, but in the past few years, she has long regarded wearing men's clothes when she goes out to run errands as a habit, and she can't change it.

Seeing that Lan'er was still blinking her big eyes and looking puzzled, Liu Shuangli didn't explain, just smiled and patted her little head and asked her to do it.

The streets of the capital are as bustling as ever.

Because it was still early, there were not many people in the market. On both sides of the market, only the early businessmen have set up their stalls, and the shops with storefronts have only opened, but there are not many customers.

Liu Shuangli was dressed in neat men's clothes in front, followed by Shen Lan'er, who was twisting behind him, and couldn't help pulling Shen Lan'er, who was wearing men's clothes with coarse cloth and open collars.

Neither of them deliberately concealed it, so everyone could recognize them at a glance as women in men's clothes.

There are many people in the capital, but there are not many people who love to make trouble, so although everyone recognized the identity of their daughters, none of them said it to their faces.

Liu Shuangli led Lan'er, looked at this stall with a happy face, and occasionally saw which gadget Lan'er liked, so he directly bought it with silver and gave it to her, so happy that the little girl's eyebrows and eyes were together, and the words of thanks were not known to be said.

The two of them walked casually, eating and drinking all the way, and they were not tired at all, but they were so tired that they were tired of the few dragon guards who were behind them all the way.

Liu Shuangli knew that someone was following them when he went out early in the morning. Just like before, she didn't say it clearly, occasionally turned around a few times, and made eye contact with a few people behind her, she also grinned and smiled playfully at others, making Long Xingwei behind her embarrassed, but she didn't dare not follow.

In my heart, I kept complaining about the adults in their family: these two hairy girls who went shopping on the street, what is there to track and protect, I really don't know what the adults are worried about.

Hey, the dignified Long Xingwei actually did the thing of stalking the little girl, and he has been found all the time, and it is a fucking shame to say it.

The group of people, only the little girl Lan'er, didn't know that someone had been following this shameful thing from beginning to end.

The two of them and a few half-aggrieved followers behind them just stopped and went, and for half a day, it was really like shopping in the market.

Walking around until noon, the two girls casually asked for two bowls of porridge in front of a small stall. After eating, Yilan'er meant that she should go back, but Liu Shuangli shook his head, shouting that it was too hot at noon, and he wanted to find a cool forest to rest.

"Where do you get the cool woods on this street?" Lan'er said sullenly, fanning her face vigorously with her hands as a fan. I just ate a full bowl of porridge, although it was deliberately cooled, but in this hot world, it still makes people sweat all over the body.

Liu Shuangli smiled slightly, fanned the wind casually with one hand, and pointed to the opposite side of the street corner with the other.

"Why is it gone, isn't there there? ”

"There?" Lan'er looked at Liu Shuangli as she pointed.

Across the street is a steamed bun shop, and then there's a thousand-character shop that sells signboards. Between the two shops, there is a long alley.

On the other side of the alley, there is a large house.

From where they were sitting, they could see the faΓ§ade of the mansion, which was a foot high.

At this time, the sun is in full bloom, and the scorching sun reflects the long alley, and you can faintly see the depths of the alley, a few green and attractive branches and leaves, poking their heads out of the high wall.

"What does Lan'er think?" asked Liu Shuangli with a smile.

"There's a good tree planted in that yard. The girl poked her head out and replied, "The tree is so big, it should be cool in the yard." ”

"Lan'er also thinks it's good," Liu Shuangli chuckled, "How about we go to that courtyard and borrow a place to enjoy the shade?"

"Miss," Lan'er hesitated, "that's everyone's courtyard, let's not go." ”

"We're just going to borrow a place to stay for a while, and we don't steal or rob, what's wrong?" Liu Shuangli smiled disapprovingly.

This is what the young lady often calls the accommodation of walking outside? Do people who go out care so much?

Lan'er was stunned for a moment: "Miss, we are in Beijing, this is different." ”

"What's different?"

…………

Looking at her young lady's serious face, Lan'er didn't know why.

Liu Shuangli laughed out loud: "Lan'er, is that yard of any house?"

Lan'er shook her head.

"That's the courtyard of the Chen family of the Ministry of Rites, does Lan'er know?"

Lan'er was stunned for a moment: "The Ministry of Rites waits for Lang, what kind of official is that?"

Although she grew up in Beijing, the girl had no concept of the so-called squire and the Chen family.

Liu Shuangli replied with a faint smile: "Zhengsanpin." ”

Lan'er was startled, stared at her big eyes, and raised her little hand to count.

is the third product, and I can't count it in one palm, that's such a big official. ”

Liu Shuangli then said with a smile: "The courtyard immediately behind the alley is on the edge of the back corner of the Chen family's mansion, and it is not a very important place, just a place where the people under the Shilang Mansion live. ”

"Where do the people live?" Lan'er looked forward again, it was also a high place.

"What does Lan'er think?" asked Liu Shuangli.

"Huh?" Lan'er didn't know why, "What do you think?"

Liu Shuangli said as a matter of course: "Where the next person lives, don't you have to say hello when you go in." ”

……

What is the rationale for this?

Where people live, can they trespass?

Lan'er felt that the sweat on her head was not all because of the hot weather.

Liu Shuangli smiled deeply, and then said, "Lan'er, think about it, it's noon, it's very hot, isn't it?"

"Yes. Lan'er nodded.

"The owner of this house is going to get hot too, right?"

"Yes. Lan'er nodded stunned.

"Does Lan'er think that the master, will fan the wind by himself?" Liu Shuangli asked with his head held high.

"This ......"

"So, at this time, on such a hot day, the people in everyone's house will definitely not be in their own courtyard, they must be in the master's front yard, waiting to be called to fan the cool. Liu Shuangli made up his mind.

"It seems, it's also ......" Lan'er nodded, but her eyes were still wide and confused, not understanding what her young lady was talking about.

Liu Shuangli looked like he hated iron but not steel: "Didn't I say it, there will be no one in the courtyard now." ”

"Yes, no one ......"

So what?

Liu Shuangli pouted: "If no one is there, they can just go in." ”

……

What is the rationale for this?

Where no one is around, you can just walk around?

Why do you think it's more unreasonable than looking down on your subordinates?

Miss, have you always walked the rivers and lakes like this?

After being stunned for a long time, Lan'er mustered up her courage and squeaked, "Miss, this is not right." Even if there's no one, miss, we can'tβ€”we just go into someone's house. ”

Liu Shuangli chuckled: "As long as you don't steal or rob, it's fine." ”

"But, in case someone finds ......"

"That's easy, say hello when you find it. ”

…………

She really can't keep up with Miss's thoughts.

The midday sun is very dazzling, even if the whole person is hiding under the shed, he still feels that the sun is dazzling.

Liu Shuangli smiled, glanced at the green branch wall not far away, didn't say more, pulled the girl who was still stunned with a wave of his hand, and his figure jumped into the narrow alley in an instant.

In the depths of the alley, the small door in the back corner of the courtyard belonging to the deep house is naturally closed at this moment, and there is no door to enter even the servant courtyard of the compound.

Seeing this, Lan'er wanted to retreat directly, but was dragged by her young lady. I don't know how the young lady did it, she was pulled with only one hand, but her whole body couldn't exert her strength. A pair of feet were completely at the mercy of the dispatch, and with the strength of the young lady, they went straight into the alley.

As soon as she saw the cracks in the stone bricks on the wall in the depths from a distance, Lan'er suddenly felt a lightness around her, and the whole person floated up with the wind, she screamed in shock, but before the sound stopped, the person had fallen to the ground. After a while, she looked around and saw that she was already in a small courtyard.

Several dragon guards who followed closely behind Liu Shuangli and the two also came to the outside of the high wall.

The group glanced at each other, and then the leader nodded, and jumped onto the wall with the other tall dragon guard. In the small courtyard behind the high wall but did not jump off the wall, the two just lay on the roof lightly, paying attention to the direction of the two girls, and then followed all the way along the roof beams at the heights.

The remaining few dragon guards, except for one who turned back to the Zhenfu Division, the rest stayed outside the high wall, stealthily guarding the four corners.
