Chapter 36: Prince Dongli
Changfeng and Qin Xin sent Lin Wan to the door, and after watching Lin Wan get into the carriage, the masked guard also followed into the carriage, but the other guard sat in front to catch the carriage.
Both of them wondered in their hearts, how could there be a guard and a master in the carriage together? Moreover, his master was still a young lady in the boudoir of cardamom.
Qin Xin looked back at Shopkeeper Ji, only to see that Shopkeeper Ji was also at a loss, obviously not knowing the true identity of the guard. But everyone is speculating in their hearts, the identity of this guard must not be simple, is it which son of the Lin Mansion?
The carriage was about to start, and a black carriage came from behind, stopping at the gate of Tianxianglou, blocking the way of Lin Wan and the others.
The coachman of the black carriage jumped out of the carriage, looked at the dress of Shopkeeper Ji and others, and stepped forward to ask Shopkeeper Ji in blunt Beijing: "Are you the shopkeeper of Tianxianglou this day?"
Shopkeeper Ji politely replied, "Exactly." ”
When the coachman saw that he had guessed correctly, the corners of his mouth hooked, and he ordered loudly: "Shopkeeper, prepare two upper rooms." ”
Shopkeeper Ji respectfully explained: "Guest officer, I'm sorry, the small shop is a restaurant, not an inn. Besides, it's already closed. "Actually, Tianxianglou does not have guest rooms, but it is not open to the public, and not many people know about it.
The curtain of the black carriage was lifted from the inside, and a beautiful woman dressed as a maid got out of the carriage first, and then, turning around and lifting the curtain, I saw a man in black who was fifteen or sixteen years old with skin like snow, eyes like stars, red lips and white teeth, and a long figure in black walked out of the carriage.
"Shopkeeper, my son has been admiring Drunken Tianxiang for a long time, I just arrived in the capital tonight, and I found it here after looking for a long time, so please make it convenient. "The man in black speaks very authentically, but there are still some differences between him and the people of Dafeng Guojing, his face is clearly contoured, his skin is as white as snow, and his eyes seem to be able to speak, extremely beautiful and familiar.
Shopkeeper Ji bowed down and politely refused: "Son, forgive me, the store has indeed closed, and the guys have already finished work." ”
The man in black frowned, and he was not willing to leave, but what Shopkeeper Ji said was reasonable, and he was inconvenient to force it, so he was about to leave with his sleeves up-
"Shopkeeper Ji, this son has come from afar, it is really an honor for Tianxianglou to come to Tianxianglou today, how can you neglect your guests?" Lin Wan opened the curtain, reproached Shopkeeper Ji for a few words, and then turned to smile at the boy in black, and said: "If the son doesn't dislike it, you can ask this son to live here tonight, and tomorrow Tianxianglou will set up a banquet to wash the dust of the son, how about it?"
The man in black looked back at Lin Wan who was speaking, Lin Wan smiled and nodded to him friendly. He turned his head to look at Shopkeeper Ji again and asked with his eyes.
Shopkeeper Ji respectfully explained, "This is the young master of our Tianxiang Pavilion. What the young master said was that the little one was snubbing, and he asked the son to forgive the little foolishness. Our young master has an upper room in the shop, which occasionally comes to rest, but never gives it to anyone else. If you wish, you can stay at our store. ”
The man in black turned to Lin Wan, smiled slightly, and hugged his fists: "Thank you!"
Lin Wan also hugged his fists and saluted back: "Childe doesn't have to be polite, Childe is extraordinary, at first glance he is a nobleman, and it is also fate to meet here today, and the little brother is really fortunate." ”
Then he turned to Changfeng and said: "Big brother, please help greet this distinguished guest, the younger brother is really too strong to drink, so he will leave." After speaking, he said goodbye to the man in black, the man in black nodded lightly, and Lin Wan put down the curtain.
Shopkeeper Ji arranged for the man in black to take the coachman in black to drive the carriage to the back door of Tianxianglou, and the gale slowly drove away.
On the way, Zhou Tianqi took off his mask, held his chin, squinted at Lin Wan, and asked, "Who do you guess that is?"
"I guess he's the sixth prince of Dongli. Lin Wan didn't think about it, and opened her mouth to answer.
Zhou Tianqi nodded in agreement and said, "They are indeed from Dongli, I can determine from the coachman's accent." But how do you know?".
"I guess, there was news before that the sixth prince of Dongli was going to the capital in the near future, a foreigner, with such a bearing, and so good-looking, and it happened to be at this time, except for the sixth prince of Dongli, there was no one else. And he came from Dongli, he was very low-key all the way, trying to avoid the eyes and ears of people from all walks of life, and it was normal that he did not go to the capital post house to stay. It is estimated that he deliberately entered the city before the city gate was closed, and went around the capital a few times, got rid of the tracking, and arrived at Tianxianglou ......" Lin Wan fell asleep on Zhou Tianqi's shoulder as he spoke, his little face was pink, his small mouth was ruddy, and his eyelashes were long and slightly upturned. Although she wears men's clothes, her eyebrows are thickened, and her hair is tied up, she still can't hide her daughter's appearance.
Zhou Tianqi suddenly felt warm in his heart, just like when he was with his mother when he was a child.
After the death of his mother, he lived in Lin San Temple for three years, and then his father personally took him back to the palace, but he really didn't want to live in that cold and lonely palace, and finally grew up to the age of twelve, so he begged his father to let him go to the barracks. Although the master never admitted that he was his apprentice, he has always been very good to himself and taught him everything. Although General Zhao is strict in governing the army, he is also very concerned about himself, and he feels more like a father than his father.
However, Zhou Tianqi has never felt like this moment, a kind of sunny-like warmth that can warm his heart.
Looking at the sleeping girl in front of him, he couldn't help but think of the picture of Lin Wan and Changfeng hooking shoulders again, he was angry in his heart, and wanted to push her away, but he couldn't bear it, so he had to turn his head, no longer look at her, leaned against the car wall, and fell asleep unconsciously.
When Lin Wan woke up, it was already the second day.
"Miss, it was the Seventh Prince who brought you back last night. Lu Liu combed Lin Wan's hair as he spoke, looked at Lin Wan's expression in the bronze mirror, and saw that she didn't react, so he continued: "Gale said this morning, the one you saw last night was really the sixth prince of Dongli, and Prince Changfeng has made an appointment with him to visit the capital today, ask if you want to go?"
"Okay! tie my hair and change into men's clothes. Lin Wan was still drowsy and felt a headache, but as soon as she heard about traveling, she immediately became energetic, she hadn't had a good time in the capital! It has been more than half a month since she came here, and she is going to suffer from depression every day when she stays in this deep mansion compound.
Fluttershy next to her immediately took men's clothes, looked at Lin Wan with expectant eyes, and said pitifully, "Miss......"
Lin Wan squinted at her and said with a smile: "Okay, take you there!" Inform Qingtong and let her prepare too. ”
Fluttershy jumps up happily, puts down her clothes, and goes with Tonus to change clothes.
Lin Wan said to the green willow in the mirror: "Green willow, you can go too." Leave everything behind today and let's go out and relax. ”
Midori nodded, her eyes shining.
