The boat traveled for more than ten days, the autumn mood was getting stronger, the river was clear, and the big ship finally docked at Jiafeng Wharf. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Qiao Zhao stood on the bow of the boat, looking at Jiafeng City in the morning mist, and his mood was extremely complicated.

"Zhaozhao, get off the boat. Shao Mingyuan stood beside her and reminded softly.

Qiao Zhao came back to his senses and nodded to Shao Mingyuan: "Hmm." ”

Jiafeng, she's finally back.

"Do you want to say hello to the local government?" Yang Houcheng walked over to discuss with Shao Mingyuan.

"No, let's go to Apricot Lin Qiao's house to settle down first. Shao Mingyuan glanced at Jin Wuwei behind Yang Houcheng and said in a low voice, "They-"

Unlike him, Yang Houcheng and the others came with him in the name of protecting Qiao Zhao to the South China Sea, and when they stopped halfway, some of these people would inevitably be dissatisfied.

Yang Houcheng grinned: "Don't worry, these people are all picked by me and can be trusted." Besides, the faces of me and Shixi in front of the Queen Mother are no smaller than the Ninth Princess, and even if the Queen Mother knows about it, she will not blame us for being playful. Shixi, don't you say?"

Chi Can stood not far away, nodded slightly, and said with a little impatience: "Let's go, what is the pestle doing here?"

Before the group left, a man with ordinary eyebrows and eyes went to the foothold of Jinlanwei to report: "Fifth master, Miss Li and her party have disembarked at our Jiafeng Wharf. ”

A man sitting on a recliner with a book over his face was taken down to reveal his face.

This is a very recognizable face, the tip of the nose is slightly curved, and the eyebrows and eyes are deep, but when he opens his eyes, he seems to be targeted by a poisonous snake, which makes people feel furious for no reason.

His voice was as cold as his temperament: "Get off the boat in Jiafeng? What kind of fame, go and find out if those people are temporarily off the ship, or if they have other plans." ”

"Yes. ”

After his subordinates left, Jiang Wu stood up and paced a few steps in the courtyard at will.

Although they are well-informed, they don't have the power to know the origin of every person who comes to Jiafeng, and the reason why they pay special attention to Miss Li and her party is because of the explanation from the capital.

As far as he knew, all the towns where the Jinliang Guards were stationed had received the news and kept a close eye on Miss Li and her party.

The leaves of the trees in the courtyard have turned yellow, and they have fallen on the bluestone bricks to form a thin gold carpet. Jiang Wu stepped on the golden carpet, his mind deep.

Why would a stepfather pay so much attention to a little girl?

I don't know what to think, Jiang Wu kicked the trunk of the tree beside him fiercely, the leaves fell in a swoop, he raised his hand to dust off the dead leaves that fell on his shoulders, and strode towards the house.

Quietly in the study, Jiang Wu took out a pair of acupuncture fine insoles from a dark compartment, and gently rubbed them for a long time before putting them away again.

The apricot forest was not in Jiafeng City, and Qiao Zhao and his party went to the suburbs.

Qiao Zhao was accompanied by Binglu and Ah Zhu into a temporarily bought carriage, while Shao Mingyuan and the others rode on both sides of the carriage.

"There are so many of us, and we will probably be targeted by those brocade guards as soon as we get off the boat. Yang Houcheng glanced back behind him and sighed.

He couldn't forget that on the way back to Beijing from Jiafeng a few months ago, he saw Jiang Yuanchao from time to time.

"Keep an eye on them. Ji Chan said lazily.

Ever since Qiao Zhao sent the box of ointment to Shao Mingyuan, he seemed to have died and returned to his usual appearance.

"I'm afraid that they will send back the news of our stay in Jiafeng. ”

Chi Can smiled disapplausively: "Don't worry, even if it is sent back, it will only be passed to Jiang Tang, and he will not disturb the emperor for such a trivial matter." ”

"That's right. Yang Houcheng nodded, turned his head sideways and asked Shao Mingyuan, "Tingquan, why don't you speak?"

Shao Mingyuan's gaze withdrew from the carriage: "Huh?"

Yang Houcheng supported his forehead and muttered: "I really convinced you!"

He never expected that once his friend, who only knew how to lead the troops to fight, was moved by a girl, it would be like an old house on fire.

Thinking like this, Yang Houcheng quietly glanced at Chi Can, and saw that he looked indifferent, so he secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, Shixi is probably really dead, otherwise he would have a headache.

Speaking of which, why are they tempted by a little girl who has not yet reached the end of their lives, fortunately he and Zizhe are normal, otherwise he would have begun to doubt life.

"The village in front of you is an apricot forest, right?" Shao Mingyuan pulled the reins and looked at it.

"Yes, that's Baiyun Village, and we used to drink tea at the village chief's house. Yang Hou admitted.

Shao Mingyuan thought for a while and asked for the opinions of the two: "How about we borrow it in Baiyun Village?"

Chi Can couldn't help but think of the bitter coarse tea at the entrance of the village chief's house, subconsciously frowned, and nodded: "Feel free." ”

In the afternoon, Baiyun Village was quiet and peaceful, and several big dogs were lying lazily on the ground, and when they heard the movement, they stood up vigilantly, shook their fur and ran to the front of the group to stop.

As the group approached, a large dog suddenly barked, followed by the barking of dogs.

The villagers who heard the movement rubbed their eyes and pushed the door out to check, and were stunned when they saw Shao Mingyuan and others riding a tall horse, and then walked over quickly and asked tentatively: "Where did you come from, did you come to our village to find someone?"

Shao Mingyuan turned over and dismounted, holding the reins and said gently and politely: "This uncle, let's come to find the village chief." ”

The villagers glanced at Shao Mingyuan a few times, then quickly glanced at Chi Can and the others, and nodded, "You guys wait a minute." ”

These people look at the extravagance and force, and they are not easy to provoke at first glance, so they naturally want to find the village chief for ideas.

The villagers ran to inform the village chief, and Chi Can got off the horse, pointed to a house that occupied a large area not far away, and said to Shao Mingyuan: "That is the village chief's house." ”

"You came together last time, right?" asked Shao Mingyuan.

"Yes. Chi Can glanced back at the stopped carriage and said lightly, "Li San is also here, I brought her here at that time, but I didn't stay overnight." ”

He was silent for a moment and smiled: "Don't worry. ”

Shao Mingyuan sighed in his heart and said in a low voice: "I just want to ask, was there anything unusual in the village at that time?"

Chi Can knew that he had misunderstood, and pulled the corners of his lips: "It's very quiet, not this kind of peaceful quiet, but deathly quiet, and later I learned that it was related to the fire in Qiao's house." ”

"In this way, my father-in-law's family has a lot of influence on the people of Baiyun Village. Shao Mingyuan muttered.

Chi Can sneered: "Tingquan, in the future, in front of Li San, you will also have a bite of your father-in-law's family?"

Shao Mingyuan coughed lightly: "This is a fact that cannot be changed. ”

Chi Can leaned close to Shao Mingyuan's ear and whispered: "To be honest, I think Li San is quite aggrieved to follow you, a good girl came to be your steproom." ”

But who made Li San like it.

He could see clearly that Li San didn't care about these false names. He can only add to the blockage of his friends and let out a sigh of grievance in his heart.
