Chapter 4 Sudden Change
Qianlan stood up and bowed to the steward of the field, "When I missed the meal because I was in a hurry, I came to disturb him, and asked the steward of the field not to blame, just give us a simple meal." Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info" said and took out some silver coins and stuffed them to the Tian manager, who hesitated a little and accepted it.
"You're welcome, you're here, please wait." After speaking, Steward Tian gave Hua Changshen a deep salute and retreated. Hua Chang and the others were full of doubts in their hearts, they just "passed by", why was the steward of this grange so respectful?
After a while, someone sent a few plates of melons and fruits, all of which were already cold, and there were still dewdrops on the surface.
In Hua Chang's opinion, these melons and fruits are not a novelty, but it is a noble house, such an inferior grange, can take out so many seasonal fresh fruits to entertain passing guests? This is not something that a small family can do.
Everyone looked at each other, and an attendant named Qianpin stood up and bowed down and said, "On such a hot day, the horses are also thirsty, so go and have a look." ”
Another person stood up and bowed and said, "The little ones should also go and see, there are many horses, and I am afraid that Qianpin will not be able to take care of them alone." Hua Chang nodded, and the two went out.
Hua Chang looked at the rest of the people: "Everyone sit down, don't waste such a good thing." Qianlan and the others also sat down, this weather ran for most of the day, and everyone was extremely hot, this cold melon and fruit, it really couldn't be better?
After a while, the two of them came back, and everyone scattered in all directions, some went to the eaves of the porch to breathe, and some walked around the yard. Qianpin and the two sat down at the table, and quietly reported the situation by eating melons and fruits.
"Oh, you read that right, it's really all the best horses in the forbidden army?" Qianlan asked in surprise.
"That's right, we still have this kind of vision." Qianpin said categorically.
Qianlan looked at Hua Chang and said, "Those people who entered the Grange earlier should be them, it seems that they know our identity." Could it be the forbidden army that followed Princess Shengping to Puning Temple? ”
Hua Chang was noncommittal, and Qianpin continued: "Entering from the corner gate of the grange, there is a medicine hall, and many villagers around have come to see the doctor, and the three and three are uninterrupted. ”
This is in line with what they have heard, and Qianlan looks at Hua Chang.
Hua Chang said: "In that case, let's go back after dinner." "He originally came to check on those novel green plants, since he didn't find anything special, and the other party's special identity is so kind to hospitality, so don't bother more.
Half an hour later, the food came up, and sure enough, it was all vegetarian. Although there are only a dozen kinds of dishes, these vegetarian dishes are time-consuming and labor-intensive, and ordinary cooks can't make them.
Looking at the table full of vegetarian dishes, Hua Chang and the others were even more sure that the other party knew their true identity. After a short rest, he took a break after the meal, and then offered to take his leave.
At this time, the heat has faded a lot, and the cool breeze from the field has been brought in, and it will be dark in about another hour. The steward of the field respectfully and politely sent Hua Chang and others to the outside of the village, and only returned to the grange when Hua Chang and the others were far away.
The weather is pleasant, the wind is light and the rain is light, it really can't be more comfortable. Hua Chang is not in a hurry, just go back to Puning Temple at night to rest, and the group is walking with him
Qianlan grabbed the horse's belly, walked two steps quickly, came to Hua Chang's side, and said softly: "Do you want to check on these people?" ”
"No need, they obviously know that they are the sons of this world, but they didn't come out to meet and just let their subordinates be respectfully entertained, it should be inconvenient, maybe they have official business." Hua Chang said casually.
As we all know, Hua Chang's mother and the queen of the dynasty have a good relationship, and after Hua Chang's parents had an accident, the queen loved Hua Chang even more. Princess Sheng Ping is the young daughter of the queen mother, if these forbidden soldiers dare to neglect their duties and act without authorization during the protection of Princess Sheng Ping, how can they face Hua Chang so calmly? Knowing this, Qianlan put aside this matter and didn't think about it.
After turning a corner, the terrain was noticeably much more open, with green hills and green grass, or rather more abundant crops.
Hua Chang grabbed the reins and stopped, and Ah Jian said: "Lord Shizi, there is a small river on this mountain, which is crystal clear. Although it is shallow, it flows all year round, and the place where it turns becomes a small pool, which is a good place to cool and refresh at this time. ”
Hua Chang nodded, glanced at Ah Jian with satisfaction, turned the horse's head, and walked towards the mountain. Everyone was also excited, busy all day, their bodies were slimy, and they could take a bath happily, which was very comfortable, and they all beat their horses to keep up.
Following the melodious path of the fields to the back of the mountain, the eyes are full of fresh greenery, and there is a small river at the foot of the mountain, which is sparkling and sparkling.
Everyone was excited to see the river, the river water was clear and translucent, the pebbles at the bottom of the water were distinct, and occasionally one or two small fish could be found swimming by, facing the fine sunlight in the stream, Hua Chang also felt comfortable.
Hua Chang took off his clothes and jumped into the pool, and everyone patrolled around and found a suitable position. The mount dragged everyone around, but also tired and thirsty, everyone is a horse lover, after their own pleasure, but also to the horse carefully washed.
Although Hua Chang doesn't care about the rules, he is not unreasonable, the little princess Sheng Ping did things for his parents in Puning Temple, no matter what he said, he should thank him. After such a commotion, the sun had already set, so he no longer delayed time and set off to return to Puning Temple.
When everyone was cleaning up, there was a sudden distant eagle chirping, everyone was startled, and Hua Chang commanded: "Hurry, the smoke and snow are in danger!" ”
The people Hua Chang brought with him were undoubtedly good hands, and they flew on horseback one by one and followed Hua Chang to the accident site.
When they came to a ravine, they saw a group of men dressed in soft silk, besieging two men in coarse cloth shirts. There were eight or nine people dressed in soft silk, although the clothes were of different colors and styles, but it could be seen that all of them were in good shape, skilled in attack and defense, and were all well-trained.
But even so, if it weren't for the help of a gray-clothed master, they would have been beaten down by the two people in the coarse cloth shirt. At this moment, they are just barely resisting those two people, and they can't even ask for help, if it takes a long time, I'm afraid the situation will not be good.
Hua Chang has been away from Beijing for many years, and most people don't know him, but there is one person he knows, and that is Zhan Rong. Zhan Rong was the commander of the guards for Princess Shengping's trip this time, and he also took a photo when he broke into the hall in the morning. At this time, Qianpin also recognized that these people's horses were the best horses of the forbidden army in the stables of the grange.
Not too far from the men, at the edge of the woods, a falcon fell to the ground, trembling, half of its wings stained blood-red, and a child cautiously approached with a medicine bottle in his hand.
Hua Chang's heart was churning with anger, who hurt Yanxue like this? This child can actually get close to Yanxue, is the child too weird, or is Yanxue too seriously injured?
