This section of the road bears not only the recognizable marks of horse-drawn carriages, but also the stumbling marks of horses' hooves.

The boy frowned and watched, silent.

Later, when he got up, he glanced coldly at the two guards who came with him, especially the one from the Hua family.

"Can the person driving for her be familiar with the terrain near Beilang Mountain?"

The young man looked at the guard who was following him, and asked in a faint tone.

The topography of Beilang Mountain?

The guard of the Hua family perked up, looked at the young man and hurriedly replied, "That person is familiar!" ”

Keeping eye contact with the young man, the guard lowered his head and recalled, and immediately added a few words: "I also came to the racecourse the year before last, and he knows the mountain roads in this area. ”

"Compared to the small one, the guard next to the eldest lady is more familiar."

The eyes of the people of the Hua family coincided with the young man, and the other party looked at him fixedly, his gaze did not dodge, and he replied honestly.

Although the people of the Hua family do not live directly in Suzhou City, but are separated by some distances, they both belong to the territory of Suzhou, and there is no reason not to know the terrain of Beilang Mountain at all.

What's more, the guards themselves will also be trained in this area.

If you encounter a situation and are not even familiar with the terrain, how can you track it!

"Since it is said that he is here to chase the whereabouts of the master," the young man's eyes moved slightly, and a wave of irritability surged in his heart, "Why is the carriage going in the opposite direction?" ”

The young man pursed his lips tightly, and a hint of strange color flashed in his eyes.

Looking at the mountains in the distance, people can't guess what he is thinking at the moment!

This is indeed difficult to explain.

Previously, the guards of the Hua family kept saying that their eldest lady chased them to Beilangshan just to find Sanshao. But the route deviated from the established one.

The guards are still familiar with the terrain in this area, and it feels like they have made an excuse to actually find something else.

The discovery. It's a bit of a slap in the face!

The guard was startled, for fear that the arrogant third young master would not trust him, so he quickly shook his head and said, "Impossible, the eldest lady said that she would follow later." “

The Hua family's guard said in an affirmative tone.

He paused, and dismounted himself to confirm on the way.

Since it was the third young master of the Yuwen family who all raised questions, he was equally surprised.

He dismounted from his horse and had to see the marks left on the road.

Because. The marks left by the carriage are better than verbal explanations, and that is not deceiving.

For doubts, the guards naturally feel strange and unreasonable!

The eldest lady of her own family made it clear that she wanted to come to Beilang Mountain to see the third young master of the Yuwen family.

She lived in the mansion in the east of the city, and she has not had a chance to meet him to this day. I couldn't hold it anymore.

Of course, it was not a suitable move to come to Beilangshan, but most of her was for anger.

Just as she gritted her teeth and said the sentence "If he doesn't come to see me, I'll go see him"!

There is more than one person in the Chengdong Mansion who knows about these things.

The guards pondered, and the housekeepers of the Xing Yuwen family were very clear. Brightly and secretly. Miss Hua has been inquiring about the news of Sanshao.

In the night wind, the two guards dismounted to check, and the traces on the road were still quite obvious, thanks to the fact that few people passed by on this road.

If there are frequent traffic and horses, it is impossible to identify the traces on the road.

If someone from the yamen comes to inspect it, they will probably come to the conclusion that the scene is well protected!

When it comes to tracking, it's a bit similar to solving a case.

After a while, the two guards glanced at each other. They all saw the clues in each other's eyes.

It's hard to believe, but they are completely unanimous.

The third young master's judgment was definitely not wrong. The traces of the carriage showed that the Hua family guard drove the eldest lady in the other direction instead of Beilangshan Racecourse.

But the messy horseshoe prints on the road also caught their eyes, which meant that there was another group of people passing on the road at about the same time.

Could it be that another group of people changed direction because of this?

The guards suddenly had a bad feeling in their hearts, what kind of person could it be?

This group of people has affected the plan of the eldest lady of their own family, what happened?

Thinking about this clearly, his expression was solemn and his heart was heavy, and there was an indescribable worry.

The Hua family sent two guards to follow the young lady, of course, in order to ensure her safety, now there is only one guard by her side, and the direction of going is still deep in the mountains, which makes people feel uneasy.

The guard suppressed the fear in his heart, it was not good to talk too much at this time, not to mention, what to do next, he didn't know what to do in his heart.

"Keep up!" Behind them, the boy quietly looked away, turned over his horse again, and then urged the two guards.

"Since it's the other way around, you might as well take a look!"

The boy made a short decision, not wanting to waste time on the road.

The eldest lady of the Hua family has to play some new tricks every time she comes back to Suzhou, although he doesn't want to see people, he doesn't want to see the troublemaker.

In addition to that potentially delicate relationship, there is a deeper reason.

At present, there are only three people to track, and the boundary of Beilang Mountain is large, so it is obviously extremely difficult, but if you turn back to the Suzhou Mansion to send more people, a movement is too big, and it is difficult to ensure that the news does not leak.

The second teenager didn't plan to do that from the beginning.

At all times, things are under his own control, and he will feel at ease.

Out of control, that's not easy to say!

The three of them rode away one after another, this time chasing in the direction that the carriage followed the direction of the Wang Shi's pathfinder

The Qingyin Pavilion was warm, and I ate the dishes made by Ade, and added a small pot of rice wine.

I didn't take a few sips of that pot of wine, but it just meant something, to warm up on a winter night.

Most of them went into the mouth of the ingot.

Adele looked at me and asked strangely, "Lin Gongzi doesn't drink well?" ”

Suzhou is close to the north, and most of the people here drink well. It's rare for Adele to see me take a few shallow sips, and she was surprised.

I smiled and shook my head and said to Adele: "Speaking of alcohol, it's actually okay, I drank too much once in the past." If you make a mistake, your family will tell you not to be greedy in the future. ”

Drink too much and make a mistake!

"If you really let go of drinking, two pots of wine are not enough to see."

I stretched out my hand and knocked on the cup and said, "Ade, if the third young master of your family wants to stay in Beilang Mountain for a few days and does not come back, before I leave, you can come to Qingyin Pavilion to find your brother." ”

As soon as the big kitchen is free, Adele can go to Qingyin Pavilion. They have a good relationship between brother and sister, and it's good to talk about nothing.

"It's more comfortable here, and there are no outsiders to disturb you." I thought for a while and said, "Ade, I usually read upstairs when I go out to do something. Very few come down. ”

Adele nodded at me.

Subsequently. She glanced at Yuan Bao and turned her head to me.

She cautiously opened her mouth and said tentatively, "When is Childe going to leave?" ”

They all knew that I was going to the Northlands, and they had made it clear before, and they talked about it a little less scrupulously than before.

I frowned and thought for a while, "It mainly depends on the progress of my preparations. "As you all know, you have to make some preparations to go to the Northlands."

"I used to try to write down the things I wanted to prepare upstairs, and I felt that it was too much after I finished writing."

I sighed, stared at the wall across from me, and didn't say anything for a long time. "It's a little tricky." I lowered my head and said sullenly, "I can't find my senior brother, it seems that there is some trouble." "Adey!" Yuan Bao listened to this sentence. Sensing my low mood, I immediately reached out and pulled Ade's sleeve.

Yuan Bao said to her: "Sister, you help go to the steward to ask, it is the people who are in charge of purchasing." "Adei, you are more familiar with them," Yuan Bao pursed his lips and said in a serious tone, "Childe wants to inquire about the mansions of rich families in the east of the city, which one is after the house is placed, the owner is often absent, and only the people below are guarded." “

Yuan Bao brought up the words I had asked him and told them to Ade.

Adele tilted her head and thought about it, and said thoughtfully: "If you want to say that there must be more than one such family!" “

She said with a serious expression: "Childe, there are many people in the mansion in the east of the city who are rare to live in after buying it. “

Sure enough, as I expected, I didn't think in that direction some time ago, and I deviated from the point.

Adai said casually: "It's like the house next door, it seems to be the same situation, the owner of that house is not there on weekdays, only a few people under him are guarding and cleaning the yard, recently"

Before Adele could finish speaking, a sudden movement outside interrupted the continuation of the topic.

"Who went into the yard?" Except for me, Yuan Bao and Adele all heard the voice.

"Childe, slave maid go take a look." Adei moved flexibly, one step faster than Yuanbao, and directly pushed open the door and walked through the courtyard of Qingyin Pavilion to the bridge.

"Maybe it's the Fu steward who inquired about the news, and they're back!"

Yuan Bao glanced at me and said in a low voice.

Because Steward Fu has been taking people out for a long time, since he is willing to go out in person, he should have connections in Suzhou City, calculate the time, and he is almost back when he hears the news.

"Probably." I'm not sure who the person is here, but I thought to myself, maybe it's possible for a tsundere boy.

Hey! As soon as the idea came out, even I thought it was strange, how could I think of him?

He should eat and drink spicy food in the courtyard of Beilang Mountain at this time, and he will definitely be able to hunt wild meat on the mountain with his kung fu.

He deliberately ran from the mansion in the east of the city to Beilang Mountain, isn't it just to have a hunting addiction, with his obsession, it is simply unreasonable not to hunt a bunch of loot.

In addition, it is rare for the people at the bottom of the courtyard at the foot of Beilang Mountain to see him, and it must be too late to make a sycophant.

Good manner, why do I think that the person who came to Qingyin Pavilion to find me would be the one who rushed back?

Where the hell does that feeling come from?

I paused as I raised my glass, and looked out the window with a hint of confusion in my eyes.

There was a conversation on the side of the curved bridge, mixed with the night wind, intermittently, far away, and not very clear.

Yuan Bao and the others were a little anxious in the house, as if they were worried that Adele would not be able to cope with it.

He looked a little uneasy and was about to get up to go out to look at it, but I raised my hand to stop him.

It won't be that he is here to find trouble, otherwise he will not move, and Adele will have turned back early!

After a while, I saw Adele walking in with someone.

The man was tall, neatly ridden, and cold!

He was also carrying something in his hand, which was covered with a cloth so that he could not see clearly, and it seemed to contain something.

As soon as the man saw the person sitting at the table, his gaze quickly moved to me from the face of the ingot, which was closer to the door.

When he saw my appearance clearly, he froze for a moment, and then stared blankly at me and didn't speak.

"Hey, what's the matter with you!" It was Adele who pushed him.

They are all people working in the Yuwen family, and they are more familiar with each other, and there are not so many taboos.

"Lin Lin Gongzi!"

The man was pushed by Adele and subconsciously shouted at me, but listening to his voice, he still looked a little unaware and unresponsive.

Adele laughed on the side and said, "Hey, Childe won't eat you again, what are you afraid of!" ”

After saying that, she stuck out her tongue and looked at me with a wink, an expression waiting for my approval.

Familiarity is this benefit, or how to say, drinking and eating will be easy to let down your guard and shorten the distance!

I remember that when Adei first saw me, wasn't she in the same state as the person who came to Qingyin Pavilion now?

I couldn't help but laugh in my thoughts, and motioned for him to put down what he was carrying.

"What are you holding in your hands?"

I looked at him, a faint smile crossed my lips, and asked in a gentle tone.

"Let's three, the third young master asked the little one to be sent to you, this is caught by Beilang Mountain, caught" The guard scratched his head a little embarrassed and said, "Hare!" ”

My eyes lit up, and I immediately stood up and walked to the door, crouched down and tore off the cloth covering my head.

Looking at it with great interest, it was really a little rabbit with snow-white fur, eating in a cage!

I teased the little rabbit for a while, stood up and coughed and asked him, "You third young master is back?" ”

"No, not yet," after a few moments, the guard gradually regained his composure, but his eyes were not directly in line with me.

He replied to me in a sincere tone, "The third young master is still on the side of Beilang Mountain. "This is what he asked the little one to send back to the mansion for you first."

"The third young master specially took care of it, and I want to send it directly to Qingyin Pavilion to show you."

The guards emphasized twice.

I looked out the window with my eyes moving, and according to this, the guards had come back from the night rush, no wonder they were cold and dusty.

I didn't think much about why the tsundere boy asked me to send me a bunny, but the guards looked a little embarrassed. "You haven't had dinner yet, have you?" I asked.

Hearing this, the guard suddenly raised his head and looked at me, his eyes met, he was stunned and his face turned red all of a sudden, and only after a while did he whisper: "Yes." “

The sound is not much louder than that of a mosquito. "Ade, do you still have food in the kitchenette of our Qingyin Pavilion?"

If he had been half an hour earlier, he would have tasted Adele's exquisite craftsmanship.

It's a pity that the timing of the escort was unlucky, and they couldn't catch up with the delicious food made by Ade. (To be continued......)
