More than ten days passed in a flash, and at this time Zhao Jin also received a letter from Jingzhou.

Although Cai Wei should explain Jiang Lu to Zhao Jin in person under Yanqiu, she wrote a secret letter when she turned around and brought it by the carrier pigeon raised by the palace.

Just a few days after the Mid-Autumn Festival, an autumn rain continued, and a lot of laurel flowers fell in the yard. Scattered petals lined the bluestone slabs, the mist was filled, and the air was filled with moist moisture. The red walls and green tiles are reflected in the green trees, showing a full artistic conception.

Yan Qiu was dressed in a plain dress, wrapped in an azure cloak, and the whole person looked a little weak. She wore clogs on her feet, held a bamboo umbrella and led the maidservant out of the courtyard.

She is a lazy person who is used to enjoying it, and she was reluctant to go out because of the heat before, but now the temperature has plummeted in autumn, and she is willing to go out when it is extremely cool.

The puddle under the eaves was full of water, and Yan Qiu didn't think that his white socks were wet, and walked with his eyes down.

"Master, further out is the outer courtyard." Although they followed, it was better to avoid idleness, but there was a large group of staff living in the outer courtyard.

Yan Qiu glanced at Cai Ge lightly, did not speak, but was about to turn around and leave.

The green bamboos in front are clustered and verdant. The autumn rain continued, and even the people moved around less, and those who were not worthy of it shrank in the house.

The fog began to dissipate, the breeze blew, and the bamboo leaves rustled. When there was silence, there was a whisper behind the red wall next to the bamboo forest.

"How's it going for what you're looking for? My master is in a hurry. The woman's low voice sounded, making Yan Qiu prepare to go back.

The drizzle fell on the bamboo umbrella and fell to the ground along the lines on the umbrella. Cai Wei Cai Ge held an oil-paper umbrella and stood quietly behind Yan Qiu.

"I'm a little eyebrow-raising, but I'm afraid it will take some time." The voice was deep, it should be a man's voice.

"You have to do something after you collect the money, don't push me back, hum!" The woman's voice was filled with anger and dissatisfaction.

"Don't worry, I'll find it for you in two days. Besides, it will take some time for His Highness to come back, what are you anxious about? The man chuckled, his voice a little flirtatious. Anyway, I didn't expect your master to be so ruthless, and you dare to follow? ”

Your Highness? Cai Ge, who was listening quietly, moved his brows slightly, and glanced at Yan Qiu almost invisibly. I saw Yan Qiu listening to the words expressionlessly, without the slightest reaction.

"What do you say? That's what you can say as well? The woman suppressed her voice full of annoyance, and shouted loudly.

"What? I still don't dare to say? I'm doing this for your good, too. Don't talk about that, let's let Ye Xiang have one, hehehehe" There was a sound of clothes rubbing against the wall, mixed with the woman's low voice.

"Let go, what are you going to do? Someone is coming in a while, and you and I can't run away. The woman pushed.

This is where the outer courtyard and the inner courtyard come and go, and people come and go on weekdays, so it's no wonder that this woman is so worried.

"What are you afraid of, who will come here on this rainy day? I haven't made love for days, but I miss it. There was a rough sound, and the sound of clothes rubbing became louder and louder.

The rain gradually became heavier, and the sound behind the wall became louder and louder, Yan Qiu coughed softly in embarrassment, and whispered: "Go back!" "She's not in the habit of listening to people's feet.

After speaking, Yan Qiu turned around and walked towards the bamboo garden. Leaving Cai Ge and Cai Wei to look at each other, the two looked at each other. Or Caige caught up first, carefully looked at Yan Qiu's face, and said tentatively: "Master, let's ...... It doesn't matter? ”

Cai Ge's face was flushed and he looked embarrassed. Yan Qiu was secretly amused, shook her head and said to herself, after all, she was a girl who had never experienced human affairs, and her face was so thin.

Seeing that his master's expression was narrow, Caige's face was even redder, and he couldn't say a complete sentence.

"What else are you doing? It defiled the ears of his master. Cai Wei caught up from behind and scolded Cai Ge.

Cai Ge's neck shrank when he heard this, his expression was wilted, and he didn't dare to say anything more, and even the blush on his face receded. Yan Qiu glanced at the two of them amusefully and continued to walk forward.

The cool breeze was blowing, and the slightest raindrops fell on Yan Qiu's body, and she shivered and gathered the clothes on her body. The hem of her dress was also wet, showing dark marks.

"Sister Caiwei has paid attention to this, what are you worrying about?" Her voice was faint, and Cai Ge couldn't see her expression clearly as she followed behind.

It is related to His Royal Highness King Ji, Cai Wei will naturally not let it go, why should she worry?

The corners of Caige's mouth tightened when she heard this, Sister Caiwei is so powerful......

Cai Wei glanced at Cai Ge lightly, and moved her gaze to the cyan back in front of her, with an obscure expression. "You go to the big kitchen to arrange the master's lunch." After saying this, she tightened the oil-paper umbrella in her hand and quickly chased after her skirt.

Your Highness, if he knows this, I'm afraid he won't be able to stay by his master's side.

"Master......" Cai Wei walked beside Yan Qiu, and she called softly.

A smile flashed in Yan Qiu's eyes, and she looked at Cai Wei outside and smiled: "Go back!" Such a cold day. ”

"It's beautiful, but it's a little cold." She shook her head, stopping Caiwei's words without an exit. There are some things she still doesn't know, but if she insists on figuring them out, it's not good.

Hearing this, Cai Wei also understood what Yan Qiu meant, her mouth opened, and she swallowed the words in her mouth again. "This autumn is a little hot and cold, the master really shouldn't come out today, what if he catches the cold? The slave will go back in a while and cook some ginger soup for you to drink to dispel the cold. ”

"You're careful, I'm used to it, I'm in good health!" Yan Qiu gently plucked a branch of autumn chrysanthemum, and the water beads trembled and fell on her wide sleeves.

"Miss Yan is there?" From a distance, I heard Steward Liu standing at the gate of the bamboo garden and asking, with a hint of urgency in his voice. Yan Qiu stood not far away and was a little surprised, what was Steward Liu doing when he came to find him at this time?

Steward Liu was holding an oil-paper umbrella, the hem of his clothes was soaked, and his shoes were full of mud spots.

Cai Wei couldn't help frowning, godfather would never be like this, he always likes to be clean, how can he be so disrespectful today?

Yan Qiu's eyes froze at the hem of Steward Liu's clothes, and then he understood that something big should have happened, otherwise Steward Liu would not have braved the heavy rain to come to her.

The autumn rain was unpredictable, it was still a breeze and drizzle when I went out just now, and now I just stood at the gate of the bamboo garden, the rain poured down, and the sky was also ink-colored, gloomy and very scary.

Seeing this, Yan Qiu hurriedly walked towards the bamboo garden with an umbrella, and the crackling sound of the rain falling on the leaves became louder and faster.

"Steward Liu, let's go to the house first!" She shouted through the rain curtain, one hand in front of her, trying to stop the rain that was blown under the umbrella by the strong wind.

There was a rumbling thunder in the air, so that Yan Qiu's voice, which was not very loud, was muffled, and it was Cai Wei who went over and called Steward Liu over.

Bisi, who replied, saw that Yan Qiu was back, and quickly gave way to her master and Steward Liu.

It's just that Steward Liu didn't move, he stood in front of the hall, his face was solemn, and he said to Cai Wei: "Hurry up and pack your luggage for Miss Yan." The voice was deep.

Yan Qiu was taken aback, he didn't understand what was going on, and just as he was about to ask, Steward Liu said again: "After the heavy rain stops, we will meet at the West Gate, and I ask Miss Yan for forgiveness if the matter is urgent." ”

interrupted her unspoken inquiry, and directly did not give her a chance to speak.

"You let it go, and if there is a delay, you don't have to wait." Throwing down these few words, Steward Liu hurriedly walked towards the outer courtyard with an umbrella.

Yan Qiu's eyelids jumped, and he looked at Steward Liu's back suddenly, his heart sank, why did he let Steward Liu say such heavy words? You must know that Steward Liu is Cai Wei's stepfather!

In the majestic rain, Steward Liu's steps were anxious, and such a heavy rain did not affect him in the slightest.

"Master, I'm afraid something big will happen, so let's go back quickly!" Cai Wei whispered in Yan Qiu's ear, and her face was also solemn.

Yan Qiu nodded and walked towards the house. His face was not obvious, but his heart was uncertain.

Not far from the entrance of the bamboo garden to the main house, I arrived at the door after passing through a hand-copying verandah. The hems of several people's clothes are dripping, very wolf.

"Go and call Biye and the others, let them prepare clean clothes, and change clothes for the master." Cai Wei quickly instructed Bisi behind her, and after speaking, she followed Yan Qiu, who was already soaking wet, into the house.

"Yes!" Bessie was at the gate of the courtyard just now, and she also saw what had just happened, and she understood the urgency of the matter in her heart, so she casually saluted and ran towards the lower room.

Because of the dark rain and darkness in the house, Cai Wei hurriedly lit the lamp and went to the wooden box to turn up her clothes.

"Just find any one and let the rest of us pack for me!" Yan Qiu was holding a cup of tea, and when she saw Cai Wei's movements, she reminded.

I don't know why something was so urgent that caught her off guard. She saw the solemnity on Steward Liu's face just now, and she was afraid that it was related to His Royal Highness King Ji.

It's just that King Ji is far away in Youzhou, why did Steward Liu come at this time? A touch of uneasiness gradually rose in Yan Qiu's heart, a fear of the unknown.

When Yan Qiu came out after changing her clothes, Cai Wei was directing a few maids to pack their luggage. When he saw her come out, he offered a cup of ginger tea and said, "Master, wait a minute, it will be fine immediately." ”

Yan Qiu nodded, looking at the pouring rain outside the window, his heart was heavy, and he didn't know where he was going? I'm afraid it's not good to start with such heavy rain.

There was silence in the room, except for the sound of people packing their clothes. They didn't know what was going on, but according to their master's strict appearance, they also subconsciously held their breath and condensed.

Although it rained heavily, it stopped quickly.
