It was getting late, a light red sunset was burning in the gray-blue sky, and the two official roads stretched into the distance in the glow, a few old trees stood on the side of the road, and the branches and leaves seemed to stretch out into the sky. Behind the old tree, a long black shadow is the famous Jiayan City.

As soon as he got out of the checkpoint, Bai Yan pointed to the road on the left with his horsewhip and said, "Let's go this way." ”

Pan Zi's eyes widened and said, "Huh? In Dongxia, we have to pass through the village, and now that we are in the middle of the week, why do we still take the deserted road? ”

Bai Yan's concern was quite complicated, and it was inconvenient and there was no need to explain it to them, so he said, "It's better to be careful, no one knows if that Xue Qing secretly sent someone." ”

Bai Wei's phoenix eyes immediately flashed with worry, and he nodded in agreement.

The three of them ran for a while, and gradually entered the mountain village, and there were few pedestrians on the official road. There are chickens and dogs smelling in the smoke from time to time, so it is a peaceful and quiet pastoral style. Gradually, the three of them relaxed their guard, and could not help loosening the reins, allowing the horses to slow at will. Bai Wei and Pan Zi's expressions became lively and relaxed.

Pan Zi patted the horse's back and sighed pityingly: "This horse is really energetic." Isn't it, the second son? ”

Bai Wei caressed the horse's strong neck lovingly, and chuckled: "This horse is a famous horse that the eldest brother bought at a high price, but he has been wronged by us in the past few days." ”

Pan Zi glanced at Bai Yan, who looked heroic and upright on the horse, endured it several times, and finally pretended to be casual and said: "The eldest prince seems to be an official of the Middle Zhou Empire, and he is a big official. ”

Bai Weifeng's eyes flashed at Bai Yan, and suddenly filled the little face of the black clown with a layer of charm, making people forget the black ugly, and the beauty of the palpitations at a glance, he said with a smile: "Pan, don't test the eldest prince, when the eldest prince wants to say it, he will tell us." ”

Pan Zi lowered his head and muttered in a low voice pretending to be disappointed: "I thought the second son knew ......"

Bai Yan listened to it and smiled silently. The heart said that these two girls were really naughty, and they wanted to ask, but they deliberately went around the bend and said, Huan'er was even more naughty, obviously provoking herself to tell her, so she said: "About my life experience, didn't Brother Yu tell Brother Wei?" ”

Of course, Bai Wei was pretended by Yan Weihuan, but the two of them were used to being called this along the way, and they didn't care about what they said and listened to. Pan Zi has not been with them for a long time, and he is from a good family, and he is not used to being a slave and maid, so he listened to their words and rolled his eyes slightly with a smile. is obviously a beauty, but she still screams affectionately, do you think she is playing Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai? I thought that these two people were little men and women who eloped, who wanted to be polite and polite along the way, and there was no matter of etiquette. As for what their relationship is, Pan Zi can't guess it, she only knows that they are good people, who are hiding from them along the way, and they themselves are good people who saved her from the sea of misery while they are still on the run, otherwise, she must have been sold to the Qinglou by her drunken husband who gambled excessively.

Wei Wan smiled: "My brother didn't say it." ”

Bai Yan laughed and joked: "I don't know who I am, so I dare to follow, but my brother is really bold." ”

Wei Wan smiled and said calmly: "My brother only said that the eldest brother is a chivalrous and righteous man, and he is a loyal and reliable hot-blooded man. Brother Lou'er believes. Now I believe it even more, the eldest brother is really a chivalrous and faithful strange man, and he will not do anything to deceive the little woman. ”

Bai Yan laughed so hard that he fell on his horse, and pointed at Wei Wan and said, "Good you smart girl!" When you say this, even if I am not that kind of person, I have to work hard to be faithful and righteous. Don't think I don't know what you think. You want to know my origins, and if I don't tell you, it will be like being unfaithful and unfaithful to deceive you. ”

Wei Wan told the central matter, and couldn't help but bow her head, but she didn't say anything.

Bai Yan didn't tease her anymore, and said gently: "Of course Bai Yan is my fake name. My real name is the compound surname Dongfang, and the single name is a bright word, and the table word is Yaozhi. ”

Wei Wan smiled and gave Dongfang Yi a new salute on the horse: "Dongfang Gongzi, you are polite, Huan'er has seen Dongfang Gongzi." ”

Pan Zi didn't care about his real name and surname, and wanted to know how big an official this Dongfang Gongzi was in the end, so he said: "What kind of official is Dongfang Gongzi in?" ”

Dongfang Yi said lightly: "It's just that Zuo Zhonglang will be an alternate among Yulin Wei, and he won't come down until the next year, and now he is at home." ”

Pan Zi didn't know what kind of official Zuo Zhonglang was, but the candidate should not be big, thinking that Dongfang Yi's tone was indifferent and he was embarrassed to mention it, so he comforted: "It's good to pay leisure, if you don't pay leisure, how can you go to Dongxia to save my second son." Although Pan Zi followed Weihuan for a short time, she won Weihuan's trust, and Pan Zi also proved that she was worthy of Weihuan's trust with her behavior - knowing that they were avoiding some people, she took advantage of her familiarity with the terrain and led them out smoothly.

Wei Wan knew that Zuo Zhonglang would be the military attache of the fifth grade, and his rank was not low in the eyes of ordinary people, and Yu Linwei was a royal forbidden army, and those who could occupy a place in the army were all children of the family. I don't know what kind of family this Dongfang Yi family is? When I thought about it, my heart became heavy for no reason, and my face was worried.

Dongfang Yi looked at Wei Wan with her eyes lowered, and the smile on her lips was reluctant, so she asked softly, "What is the trouble with Brother Wei?" Although Brother Wei is only a small Zuo Zhonglang general alternate, it is not a problem to send you to your aunt's house safely. But don't be worried. ”

Brother Yan Yu told Wei Wan about his aunt's family, and knew that his aunt's family was a big family, although his brother repeatedly said that his aunt was good, but Wei Wan had never seen it, and he was inevitably worried about whether his aunt's side could rely on it. Weiwan pondered for a moment, pulled the reins of the horse, and said with a light smile: "With the eldest brother here, how can I be worried." It's just that...... Huan'er thought of Sister Yanhuan. I don't know if Sister Yanwan is good ......"

Dongfang Yi smiled disapprehantly: "Yanhuan has changed from the daughter of a beggar to a prince and concubine, it can be said that a sparrow has become a phoenix, and she has ascended to the sky in one step, of course it is very good." Don't worry too much. ”

Wei Wan sighed secretly. Sure enough, even he thought so. Whether it is the concubine of the prince or the wife of the family family, it is common and a rule for the wives and concubines of the men of the family to have a group. How can a man who serves a husband with a group of women, competing for her husband's favor for several more looks, can a man experience the hardships of hard work? Even if you win the favor of your husband, the happiness will come hard, and the affection will become false and calculating due to insecurity. Where would such a life be good? But men don't understand, and still think that if a woman is given a name, the woman should be grateful.

Weiwan was in a heavy mood, and she lost her smile unconsciously. Dongfang Yi always paid attention to her, and saw that her phoenix eyes were half-closed gloomily on her black-clowned face, and she shaved off her eyebrows to pretend to be ugly, but her eyelashes were long and thick, closing on her eyelids like two small fans. couldn't help but soften in his heart, and comforted: "Guan Wen has changed, but my brother can resume his daughter's outfit from tomorrow, and when he arrives in Yedu, his eyebrows should also grow." Otherwise, I will send you to my aunt's house, and your aunt will think that I have abducted her niece and sent a big monkey away. ”

Pan Zi laughed beside him, and said crisply: "I don't know where the eldest prince learned this kind of makeup, and he turned a beauty into an ugly man with a wide face and a nose." ”

Dongfang Yi smiled: "When I was a child, I was playful and learned from a wanderer. At that time, I often pretended to be naughty with others, but I didn't expect it to come in handy. ”

Pan Zi muttered in a low voice: "Where is this serious use......"

Weiwan also touched the glue sticking to her nose and chin, and smiled. Thinking that she no longer has to paste these pasty things, and she can wear women's clothes again, although she doesn't know if her aunt's family can rely on it, Wei Wan's heart can't help but feel relaxed.

At this moment, there was a sound of horses' hooves running quickly on the road behind them, and when the three of them turned around, they saw more than a dozen iron-mounted warriors, all the way to the rolling twilight dust, chasing after them.

Wei Wan looked at these dozen fierce knights in astonishment, and wondered if the people of the prince of Dongxia had chased here? The official road here is secluded, even if there is a fight, there will be no one from the Middle Zhou Kingdom to take care of it, and my brother said that the eldest brother is strong in swordsmanship, but one person can do more than a dozen...... She turned her head to look at Dongfang Yi worriedly, and there were tears in her phoenix eyes.

Dongfang Yi returned her with a relaxed smile, holding the reins in one hand and the horizontal knife under his waist in the other, leading the horse forward, blocking Weihuan and Pan Zi behind him.
