On the day of the trip, it was a good day with no clouds. It's summer, and the weather is a little hot. Miao Lan packed up in the morning, and greeted Mrs. Shen San and the old lady in turn to say goodbye. The elders of the second and fourth rooms, as well as all the brothers and sisters, were also in the old lady's Rongshou Hall to bid farewell to Miaolan.

It's a long way to go, and they don't know what awaits them. Miaolan didn't know the situation in the court, but she also knew that Mongolia was a long way to go, and it was unlikely that she would return to Beijing with the paintings within a month. The Queen Mother is only afraid that the drunkard does not mean to drink.

It's just that she doesn't understand what kind of character she is this time.

After stepping out of the inner house through the corner gate, Mrs. Shen San and Shen Yilan stopped. Shen Mo, who had been waiting at the door early, greeted him. He saluted to the third lady, "Mother, the child will escort my sister out of the city all the way, and please rest assured." ”

Mrs. Shen San trusted her eldest son the most, and she held Miaolan's hand and patted it gently, "There are many inconveniences when you go out, so you should be more cautious in your actions." When you arrive in Mongolia, remember to send someone to deliver a letter to your family. Come back early. ”

Mrs. Shen is a quiet and slightly cold person in the first day, but her earnest care is hidden in daily trivialities. Shen Miaolan has been her daughter for so long, so she naturally understands her hidden love for her daughter. Looking at her eyes slightly red, I couldn't bear it. hurriedly held back the tears that were about to burst out of her eyes, and choked up, "Mother, don't worry, my daughter can take care of herself." But you, every year in the summer, now that it is summer, you have to be careful about your body, don't work too hard. ”

The third lady nodded and handed Miaolan's hand to Shen Mo's hand. "My sister handed it over to you, if you can give it an extra ride, it's harder. ”

Shen Mo agreed, sent Miaolan to a soft sedan chair, and went out of the house.

When I got to the gate, there was already a carriage pulled by four horses. Although it is a big car, it is not flashy and very low-key. Two coachmen stood beside the carriage, one on the left and one on the right, and although they were coarse cloth clothes, they were erect. Seeing Shen Mo coming over with Miaolan, he hurriedly stood sideways and saluted.

"These two are the forward and center generals who have followed their father all the year round, the Ponzi brothers. Specially accompanied to protect you. Shen Mo introduced to Miaolan in a low voice.

Such a heroic coachman, Miaolan had long guessed that he must be a person in the army, but she never thought that he would be a general with military rank. I was really surprised. Busy saluting politely to the Pang brothers, "The two generals have been wronged to take charge of the car for Miaolan." ”

Brother Pang Yuan hugged his fists and saluted, "The girl is polite, our two brothers were able to gain a foothold in the army thanks to the general's refusal to give up, and it is our duty to saddle the horse for the girl." ”

The younger brother Pan Hai also echoed on the side. The two brothers were polite and polite, but there was no trace of flattery. But it's a soldier's backbone. Shen Miaolan's most respected thing in her life is such a real man, and she nodded as a salute when she arrived.

With the support of the cloud warbler and the lark, Miaolan got into the carriage, and Shen Mo set off from outside. The carriage drove slowly towards the west gate.

"Miao'er, is it stuffy in the car?" Shen Moze, following the carriage and asking.

Miao Lan ordered the lark to open the car window, and Shen Mo could be seen through the gauze curtain. Seeing his concern, he replied with a smile, "It's not hot, there is an ice bowl on this table, and a cool breeze blows in outside the window, and it's not hot at all." However, my brother rode a horse against the sun, which was harder. ”

Shen Mo covered the shed with his hand and glanced at the sun rising in the east, "It's not yet when the sun is hot, don't worry, not to mention that your brother and I are from Jiangmen, are you still afraid that the sun won't be able to shine?"

Shen Miaolan chuckled and teased, "Who doesn't know that you have been most afraid of practicing kung fu since you were a child, although you are from a general's background, you are not as good as the martial arts of the son of a civil official family." ”

"Did you say that, brother?" Shen Mo pretended to be angry, and suddenly thought of something, and rode the horse closer to the carriage, looking at Miaolan through the window. "You don't talk about martial arts, I forgot, I heard that this time the Holy Lord sent the deputy commander of the forbidden army in front of the emperor to escort the princess, do you know who this person is?"

Shen Miaolan shook her head, "How do I know, I only heard my father say that the commander of the forbidden army, Lord Fang, has extremely high martial arts, and even my father is not his opponent, but I have never heard who the deputy commander is." ”

"Of course it's Lord Fang's proud disciple, Gu Qingping, the prince of Zhenguo!" Speaking of Gu Qingping, Shen Mo's mood was slightly excited.

Miao Lan didn't feel anything unusual, but the lark on the side paid more attention. Peeked to look at Shen Mo's expression.

"This Gu Qingping's name is very familiar. It seems that I have heard the third brother mention it a few times. Shen Miaolan answered.

"Yes," Shen Mo replied, "The third brother admires Brother Gu, who is strong in martial arts, the most." ”

Shen Miaolan didn't care, she didn't live in a martial arts novel, her martial arts were strong and she could eat. She is not interested in anything like flying eaves and walls, floating on water, and fighting for stars, nor does she pick up the topic of Shen Mo. Brother and sister, you said a word, and before you knew it, you walked to the east gate.

Princess Zhaohe's carriage stopped outside the city gate early, and she was a little impatient to wait, pacing back and forth beside the carriage by herself. Seeing Miaolan's carriage slowly driving over, her eyes lit up. Hurry forward.

Shen Miaolan got out of the carriage, and before she could see the surrounding situation clearly, she was accused by Showa, "Why are you so slow, I have been waiting for you to have a stick of incense." You see, I'm all tanned. ”

Showa said as he poked his white jade-like crystal clear face and approached Shen Miaolan's side.

Shen Miaolan looked disgusted, and reached out to pinch her face, "It's obviously just a blow bomb that can be broken, where is it dark? If it's really dark, it's not bad, lest you walk on the road too eye-catching and be found to be a golden branch and jade leaf." ”

Showa struggled to save his pinched face, and was praised like this without a trace, and he was really proud in his heart. Pulling Miao Lan to his carriage, "You can sit in a car with me, so you can relieve your boredom together." ”

Miaolan responded, but her body didn't move, and she turned her head to look at her brother, "Brother, report safety to my grandmother, father, and mother for me." I'm leaving. ”

Shen Mo nodded and waved his hand at Miaolan, still with a worried look on his face.

Seeing this, the young man who was originally standing behind the princess stepped forward and patted Shen Mo on the shoulder, "I will protect Sister Ling along the way, Brother Shen rest assured." ”

Shen Mo looked at the young man opposite with gratitude, "It's going to be a lot of hard work for you along the way." ”

The two clasped their fists and saluted each other, saying goodbye to each other, and the boy turned around and followed in the footsteps of Miaolan and Princess Showa and left.

Before Shen Miaolan got into the car, she turned her head again and waved her hand to her brother, who was still standing in place. Princess Showa reached out to pull her in the carriage, revealing a very envious expression. "Your brother treats you so well. ”

Shen Mo treats himself and Yilan's two younger sisters very well, which Shen Miaolan does not seem to deny modestly. So he said, "The fourth prince treats you very well." ”

Showa nodded and lowered his eyes, making it difficult to see his expression, but the sense of loneliness became more and more intense.
