Chapter Forty-Three: Alone on the Road

Early in the morning, Murong Qingxue slipped out of the side door with a rhyme, and the moment they went out, the two of them were physically and mentally comfortable. After going through the turmoil of the past few days, I was finally able to come out and breathe.

In the late days, the rivers and mountains are beautiful, and the spring breeze is fragrant with flowers and plants. After living up to so many days of spring, at this moment, Murong Qingxue's heart actually had a kind of emotion. I can't say why, just because of the warm spring sun.

Xinyun is dressed as a small girl, but she can't hide her delicate appearance. Murong Qingxue couldn't help but make fun of her, but she forgot that she was also dressed in ordinary clothes, and the two young men with red lips and white teeth were making trouble along the way.

"Miss, no, Childe, we won't just go to Lincheng, will we? Before she had walked a few steps, Xinyun pursed her mouth, and the corner of her eyes was secretly looking at Murong Qingxue.

"I also know the distance, but do you know how to ride a horse?" Hearing this, Xinyun lost the excitement that just came out, and shook her head helplessly.

The street was bustling, no one noticed the two teenagers, and the two looked at the endless crowd as they walked, as if the excitement was theirs and had nothing to do with them.

However, when Xinyun's eyes caught a glimpse of a signboard, her eyes lit up: "Miss, there is." ”

"What's wrong?" Murong Qingxue had long been accustomed to the surprise of Xinyun, so her answer was also careless. However, when she followed Xinyun's fingers, her eyes also brightened. There is nowhere to find the iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get them. The two of them took hands and ran to the shop under the sign.

"Old money, old money, come out quickly. As soon as she arrived at the door, Xinyun couldn't help but shout, not only shouting, but also patting the table with her hand. That's right, the shop they entered was Anhetang.

"Who, who? What is it called early in the morning, busy!" Although he was very impatient, Lao Qian still came out with an abacus. It hasn't been long since the last time we met, but looking at the old money, he is even richer, and his eyes are even smaller. Although he didn't look up, he was still thinking about it, but it could be seen from the speed of his subordinates that his shrewdness had earned him a lot of money.

Xinyun saw that Lao Qian was concentrating on settling accounts, and did not take them seriously, so she snatched the abacus and shook it. Lao Qian's accounts that were about to be calculated were restored to their original state at once, and he suddenly became anxious, raised his head and shouted: "Who is this, you blocked me early in the morning, isn't it fun to find it?"

Looking at the rhyme of smiling at him, Lao Qian only felt good, but he couldn't think of who the young man in front of him was. The smart eyes and handsome face are very familiar, where have you seen them? Looking at the back of Xinyun, there is also a handsome young man, who can be seen from the gorgeous clothes.

Regardless of whether you have seen it or not, it is a guest who comes to the door, let alone a distinguished guest, Lao Qian immediately put away his angry face and filled it with a smile, which changed too quickly, so that Xinyun couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh. Old Qian laughed, hunched over, and looked flattering.

Xinyun shook her abacus and laughed: "Old money, I haven't seen you for a few days, how much have you forgotten?"

Lao Qian was so familiar with this sour tone, and then looked carefully, patted his head, and blamed himself: "Old confused, old confused, the villain doesn't know that the third miss and the girl Xinyun have arrived, how offensive just now, please don't worry about the third miss and the girl." ”

Murong Qingxue smiled lightly, sat down on the stool next to her, and gestured to Xinyun.

"Old Qian, Miss and I are going to go on a long trip, but you also know that it is not convenient for the two girls after all, so I dressed up in men's clothes. You help us rent a carriage, hire a coachman, and the rest is yours. Xinyun said as she took out a silver ticket and gave it to Lao Qian, who took it and looked at it, a full hundred taels. hurriedly excused: "I don't need so much, I don't need so much." ”

Murong Qingxue said with a smile: "Since you give it, then take it." It's just that this matter must be done properly, and the rumors must not be leaked. ”

Lao Qian put away the silver ticket, patted his chest and promised: "Third Miss, don't worry, since this matter is handed over to me Lao Qian, there is no reason why it can't be done." You two will rest here for a while, and I'll do it myself. ”

Murong Qingxue nodded, and because there were many people, she and Xinyun went to the inner hall to wait.

"Miss, this time we went out, the lord and the lady didn't know, would it cause an incident?"

"There will be incidents, but there is no way to do it. If I go and explain the situation to my parents, I can be sure that this matter will never be found out again. There are no idle people waiting to enter the Snow Garden on weekdays, as long as we go back quickly, there will be no chaos. Although Murong Qingxue said this, she was still a little worried in her heart. Today's Snow Garden is different from the past, in the past, no one has set foot in it for many years, but now, with the change of his identity and the relationship between Yun Rui, it has become the most lively place in the General's Mansion.

Xinyun saw that her brows frowned slightly, so she didn't say anything more. Now that they are all out, there is no reason to turn back. Besides, Murong Qingyi's harsh words and contemptuous eyes at the beginning deeply stung her. Even if she could endure it, she couldn't let her mother endure it in vain. Therefore, she had to come out to find out the truth more than ten years ago, just to be innocent.

Old money is neat. At the time of half a pillar of incense, a carriage and a coachman were already waiting at the door of the pharmacy. Lao Qian came to report happily: "Third Miss, all the qiē have been prepared, and the Third Miss can go on the road." “

Xinyun glanced at Lao Qian: "Old Qian, what road are you on?"

Lao Qian hurriedly slapped his mouth with his hand: "Talking nonsense, talking nonsense, Miss Xinyun, Lao Qian is stupid, he said the wrong thing, don't pick Lao Qian's gift." Before the two of them could answer, Lao Qian had already called the coachman over: "This stone is the most skilled coachman on our street, and it will definitely send the third lady to the place safely." ”

Murong Qingxue looked at the stone in front of her, lowered her eyebrows, and accepted him. Without saying much, he was in a hurry to leave, so he said goodbye to Lao Qian.

The carriage drove from the capital of Xiling to Lincheng, Lao Qian's words were true, this stone really remembered purely, although it was in the carriage, but the two of them felt like walking on the ground, and they both fell asleep.

I don't know how long it took, Murong Qingxue woke up. When I lifted the curtain, the sun was already shining outside the window. Rubbing his sleepy eyes, he woke up his heart, and he didn't know where he went.

Xinyun stretched and looked out the window. It's really a good spring day. The mud melts and flies swallows, the sand warms and sleeps mandarin ducks, the road ends by the white clouds, and the spring and the green stream are long.

"Stone, where are you now? After such a long journey, you should rest. Murong Qingxue said.

Shi Shi turned his head and said with a simple smile: "Third Miss, the villain is not tired, there is still about half an hour, and we will be able to reach the next town." We'll have something to eat and we'll be in Lincheng by evening. ”

Murong Qingxue nodded, leaned on the cushion of the saddle, and arranged it like this.

The stone wielded the whip and gently whipped it on the horse's back, which allowed the horse to run fast without hurting it, and it was really a good horseman. Sure enough, within half an hour, the carriage drove to the town of the stone mouth.

After sitting in the carriage for a long time, Murong Qingxue and Xinyun were almost tired, and they got out of the carriage and walked around the market, which was much more comfortable.

After choosing again and again, they finally chose a store called "Shangshi Pavilion", the stone went to feed the horses first, and Murong Qingxue and Xinyun found a quiet seat and sat down.

Xiao Er greeted him very warmly and introduced the famous dishes of the restaurant, Murong Qingxue didn't have much interest in this, his eyes looked out the window, and the ordering work fell on Xinyun. The heart rhyme chattered endlessly about the characteristics of each dish, and some questions were asked by Xiao Er who was stunned and didn't know how to answer. From his eyes, it can be seen that the two sons with extraordinary bearing, how can they be like women when ordering food, so they looked at it a few more times. Xinyun noticed Xiao Er's dissatisfied eyes, so she raised her eyebrows, patted the table and said, "Xiao Er, do you have any opinions on the way this son orders?"

Xiao Er was shocked, but still replied: "I don't dare, it's just that Childe has to ask so much about every dish, and our restaurant is busy with business, and I really haven't met a guest like you." ”

"What, didn't you meet it today? What are you still standing for, and you haven't prepared to serve the food?" Looking at the fierce appearance of Xinyun, Xiao Erfei left like a general, and Murong Qingxue also shook his head.

It didn't take long for the stones to arrive. The dishes were served quickly, maybe Xiao Er was frightened by Xinyun before, so he didn't dare to slack off.

Just as the three of them were about to move the chopsticks, suddenly another person sat at the table. Murong Qingxue raised his head, and a man about ten years old who was dressed very casually also sat at their table. If you want to say that this young man can be regarded as a handsome boy in Yushu Linfeng, but the cynicism in his eyes makes people not like it, but he can't hate it. If you have to say it, it is more evil than Ling Pingyang, and at the same time, it has more Dongfang Yunrui's warmth.

The young man didn't care about the eyes of the three of them looking at him, he consciously picked up the chopsticks and began to eat, and praised while eating: "Not bad, delicious!" I don't know how long this young man hasn't eaten, anyway, after he feasted, there was not much left on the table.

The three of them looked at each other, what the hell is this?

The boy burped and smiled very satisfied: "Full, hehe, full." ”

Xinyun couldn't bear it anymore, and the chopsticks fell on the table with a "snap", and the apricot eyes widened angrily: "You are full, what should we do?"

Only then did the boy notice that the three of them were looking at him with chopsticks, and they didn't move a mouthful. Although he was at a loss, he still shook his hair that he thought was flowing, and said casually while knocking on chopsticks: "Brother Tai, it's just a meal, why is it so petty? Besides, there are brothers all over the world, so you don't need to be so excited, right?"

Xinyun pulled Murong Qingxue's arm: "Childe, look, how can there be such a shameless person?

Murong Qingxue comforted Xinyun, although she didn't like this young man, she didn't make a noise because of a meal. He instructed Xinyun to order another table of dishes, and suddenly saw the young man covering his chest, spitting blood, beads of sweat oozing from his forehead, and said intermittently: "Yes, poisonous." Before he could finish speaking, he collapsed on the table and stopped moving.

Murong Qingxue and Xinyun were both shocked, they were both cautious along the way, who was going to poison them? Looking around, there was no suspicious person, but the young man in front of him was obviously poisoned.

Chuke Mo Yan Mountain is dangerous, and the hearts of the world are even more dangerous in the mountains.
