Chapter 34 Change of Mission
Although Xiao Hanqian sat politely on the main seat all night, it was rare for him to say a word, and at this time, Fang interjected and said in a cold tone: "Yingyu! Don't make too many jokes, how can Uncle Shi's family affairs be the turn of outsiders! Don't apologize to Uncle Shi and Rong'er yet! Do you still want the emperor's grandfather's apprentice grandson to call you aunt? ”
Seeing that Xiao Han's face was not good, the county lord whispered aggrievedly: "Brother Yan, don't be angry, Yingyu didn't mean that!" Just kidding! She turned her head to her master and said with an apologetic expression, "Uncle Qianshi...... Yingyu is not sensible, don't you be angry with Yingyu, okay? Ying Yu knew she was wrong. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info" then turned to me and said: "Sister Tianrong is not strange, my sister is unintentional." ”
I lowered my head and didn't know what to do, and the master said, "Since the county lord is a joke, how can we take it seriously." My three precious apprentices still have patrol duties at night and can't stay for long, I wonder if they can retire now? ”
The county lord looked at us with a look of pity and said, "Hey...... It's a pity, I just met, and I'm going to leave before I can talk about it. Since there is a task on her body, Yingyu is not easy to stay, so let's get back together another day! Lu'er sees off guests, and the younger brothers and sisters are easy to go. ”
As soon as Lu'er took a few steps, Xiao Hanqian said, "Lu'er doesn't have to go, Ziyu!" Xiao Hanqian called Ziyu to his side and whispered a few words before saying, "Ziyu, you send the three of them out." Lu'er had no choice but to pout and return to the county lord.
Ziyu led us back to where we were, put the cloak back on me, fastened it, and led us out of the banquet hall. It wasn't until we left the courtyard where the banquet hall was located that we breathed a sigh at the same time, and Ziyu said that we should wait for her to come back immediately, and then left quickly.
Blaze watched her walk away, then scratched her head and asked, "Isn't this county lord a very smart person?" How can you make such a joke at a banquet. Since ancient times, the master is like a father, and he pays attention to starting from the beginning, how can he change the master, this is a taboo against the heavens and betrays the master, how can it be used as a joke. Everyone understands something, why doesn't the county lord know? What does she mean by that? ”
Xiaoxue rolled her eyes to the sky, pouted, and said, "Hmph! I'm crazy about love, and my head is burning! It's no wonder that she has been shouting all day long that she wants to marry Xiao Gongzi in the future, and she has been shouting for hundreds of years, and people don't pay attention to her stubble, and now she has a rival in love, and she is even more anxious. ”
Blaze tilted his head and thought for a long time, then asked, "Rival in love?" Who is her rival? ”
Xiaoxue looked at Blaze's eyes and was about to pop out, but Blaze still looked at her with a blank expression. In the end, Xiaoxue shook her head helplessly: "You are really a pig's head, of course her rival is Rong'er, you can't see this?" She likes Xiao Gongzi, and Rong'er also likes Xiao Gongzi, do you say that the county lord can look at Rong'er? But she is really good enough today, she still wants Rong'er to be Xiao Gongzi's apprentice, she really can't think of such a bad move! Rong'er was recommended to Master by Xiao Gongzi at the beginning, didn't she slap Xiao Gongzi in the face? This idiot woman...... It's really stupid to care about yourself. Ay! I can't bear to laugh at her with her intelligence. Blaze listened to the expression of sudden realization, touched his chin and nodded frequently.
I felt uncomfortable, and listening to Flame Xiaoxue speak was even more mixed, but Xiaoxue's last sentence amused me. However, I quickly became worried and asked Xiaoxue, "How do you know that I like Xiao Hanqi?" Am I manifesting myself? ”
Xiaoxue looked disdainful. "What do you say? If you're fine, look up at the North Mountain, what do you see? Could it be to see the scenery? If you want me to say that you are really grinding, if you like it, just say it, you can make it! Can't be pulled down! Worried all day long, are you annoying? ”
I used to say this when I watched TV in my previous life, I couldn't stand it as soon as I saw the bloody plot of the male and female protagonists, and now it's my turn to find that confession is not an easy task, at least I don't have the courage to say it, I'm afraid that I won't be able to accept the consequences of failure, I'm afraid that if Xiao Hanqian doesn't like me, or even hates me because of it, then I won't be able to stay in a place where Xiao Hanqian is! If we don't confess, then we can at least be friends forever. I'm not afraid of death but I'm afraid of being hated, is this considered cowardice? I smiled helplessly, so bitterly.
Xiaoxue sighed: "Forget it, it's your business, and I don't care so much." But you don't have to worry about that county lord, Xiao Gongzi would have married her if he liked her, and I want to see that Xiao Gongzi still likes you more! Don't think about it so much, if you don't want to fight, just go with the flow, what was like before and what is still now, leave it to time to solve, there are not many people in our world, just a lot of time, isn't it? ”
I thought about it, Xiaoxue was right! I'm struggling with this, can I change a yarn? It's better to not think about anything and get along like before. Adjust my mentality, and I feel like even the air is fresher. After a while, Ziyu walked back quickly, handed me a small round cotton bag in her hand, and opened it to see that it was a delicate small ball stove, and she told me that it was too cold to patrol at night and asked me to take it with me.
As she spoke, she sent us out of the palace and into Uncle Zhong's carriage. Then, she handed over three small satchels, which contained a few packets of dried fruit compote and snacks, saying that the patrol until dawn was too long, and you can fill your hunger when you are hungry, and the three of us are very satisfied with this, especially Xiaoxue, she likes to eat snacks the most.
Ziyu's old mistake was made again, and there were always endless words to tell her, and in the end, Uncle Zhong came out and persuaded her. The carriage drove slowly, and Ziyu followed the carriage and said to me: "Miss Rong'er, my son-in-law said, let you not think nonsense all day long, these days are busy, he will go to see you in a few days." She stopped chasing the carriage, but stood there and watched us, and we waved her back quickly.
The last sentence of Ziyu made me feel better. Xiaoxue also raised an eyebrow at me, looking like she was as I expected, looking happier than me.
After going home and changing our clothes and tying up our hair, we went straight to the yamen, and we hurried to avoid being late. The original mission of patrolling the northern city suddenly changed, due to the frequent thefts in the city in recent days. The thieves stole not only some high-ranking families and wealthy businessmen, but also the poor people, and for a time the number of people reporting cases increased dramatically, so that the government could not be idle, and the victims were a little more, but it was not a fatal case, and the government was only investigating step by step. But who knew that this little thief was too rampant and actually stole to the prefect's house last night, although the prefect Duan was a good official with clean sleeves, and there was nothing to lose at home, but after all, this matter was humiliating to the official's family, so this theft case rose to a new level and evolved into a blatant provocation against the government.
In addition to investigating cases, the patrols in the city are all in charge of regular workers, and white servants like us, that is, temporary workers, have been sent to patrol some retail residential areas outside the city, that is, the hard work of drilling the forest has been lost to us, and the leaders of the white servants have also been replaced by newcomers to the yamen, and the old people have stayed in the city. Only the leader of our group has not changed to Sun Zhongchuan, but this does not mean that we have good luck, on the contrary, our group is the worst of the white servants, responsible for patrolling a valley called Tibetan Demon Valley!
When they first heard this name, everyone's faces changed, and the expressions of the other teams were obviously relieved, while Xiaoxue, Blaze, and Sun Zhongchuan's faces were so ugly and ugly. Sun Zhongchuan turned his face on the spot and said that he didn't want to go, and the people of the other groups were afraid that his protest would succeed, so they all ran out to work like birds and beasts, as if someone was urging them to die, and there were only Sun Zhutou and the four of us left in the room in an instant. Sun Zhongchuan snorted, cursed, shook his face and led the three of us out of the yamen.
The people who patrol the city have high physical requirements, the same working time, the distance between the city and the outside of the city is not the same, fortunately, the people who can be selected as white servants are not vegetarians, and the white servants who go out of the city after leaving the gate of the yamen, they all swoop in different directions and disappear into the night.
Sun Zhongchuan took the lead, and we also headed towards the Hidden Demon Valley. Sun Zhukuai's body is not under the flame and snow, and even the foundation is deeper, the movements are simple and smooth, and he can also see and listen to all directions under the rapid advancement, and maintain a state of vigilance at any time.
Out of the city, we went into the suburbs. It is a large growing area, and the terrain is flat and open. Sun Zhongchuan suddenly stopped, looked back in the direction we came, and squinted his eyes and searched in the darkness for a long time. I don't know why Snow and Flame, but I know why! Because since I left Xiao Hanqi's house, the feeling of being followed all the time has reappeared, when I was speeding in the city just now, because there were many people in other teams, this feeling was not obvious, and now in the wilderness where no one is around, this feeling is magnified, as if there are a pair of eyes in the dark that have been staring at you, and you can't find it.
Sun Zhu frowned and thought about it, and Flame couldn't help but ask, "Sun Tou'er, what are you looking at?" ”
Sun Chukuai didn't seem to have any intention of answering him, and I interjected, "Someone is following us." ”
Sun Zhuai looked at me in surprise and praised: "My intuition is good!" He changed his words and added, "But the visual hearing needs to be honed." ”
Xiaoxue was taken aback: "Tracking? Even Sun Tou'er noticed it, and it seemed to be true. She turned to me and asked, "Are you still the one who follows us both during the day?" I thought you didn't sleep well during the day and hallucinated! ”
