Shortly after the Mid-Autumn Festival, in the afternoon. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info the border area of Jiangsu and Shandong provinces.

In this section, the official road is far away from the canal, away from the town, and at the junction of the two provinces. In troubled times, I am afraid that it will become a dangerous place for bandits to infest. Fortunately, at this time, the Ming monarch was in power, the politics were clear, and the imperial court attached great importance to the south of the Yangtze River.

A group of people came from south to north, and one of them was a caravan, the curtain of which was lifted, and the two girls in the car kept looking out, and the girl in the light pink dress gave instructions to another girl in a light green dress with a slightly smaller chronology. A young man in a dark blue robe on a horse watched this scene with a smile, interjecting from time to time. It was followed by three horses, and the people on the horses looked like bodyguards.

The girl in pink told a legend about the scenery, and the girl in green longed for it.

The man in the blue shirt looked at his sister's obsessed appearance funny, and praised casually: "Miss Cao is admirable!" ”

The girl in pink was about to say a few words of humility, but she saw more than a dozen masked gray-clothed people suddenly appear on both sides of the road, all holding bright big knives in their hands.

Pity the two deep boudoir women, where have they seen such a world, they are so frightened that they tremble and scream even before fainting. Rao is young man used to travel from south to north, and he was a little stunned all of a sudden, and he didn't know when he offended such a staked character. However, the two bodyguards, seeing that the time had come to contribute to the owner, although they were also afraid of the other party's number and the knife in their hands, they still dutifully rushed to the front, shouting in their mouths: "Bold thief, dare to alarm my young master!" ”

The group of gray-clothed men didn't take this kind of small role in their eyes at all, and walked up to two people and left the two bodyguards on the ground with three clicks and two clicks. A gray-clothed man who looked like a leader in the middle looked at the two bodyguards who fell to the ground and couldn't mourn and screamed: "This kind of thing also needs Lao Tzu to shoot?!" I fed the mosquitoes for two hours in vain! What bad luck! ”

A gray-clothed man behind him frowned and looked at the few people who were shivering like chaff, and said with some hesitation: "Boss, something seems to be wrong!" ”

"What's wrong? Did you hear that? Isn't that girl's surname Cao? It must be Cao Yin's daughter! The leader shouted, and then coldly pointed at the girl in pink and asked, "Are you surnamed Cao?" ”

The girl nodded subconsciously, and suddenly came back to her senses: "No, I ......" before I wanted to say that my father was not Cao Yin, and the group of people was already clamoring: "Sure enough, it's her!" "The little girl is cunning!" "Boss, kill her!"

The leader walked up to the Cao girl, smiled and raised the big knife: "Little girl, I'm sorry!" Lao Tzu uses money to do things for others, if you want to blame it, blame your father! ”

With a bang, the broadsword was held up by a □□. It turned out that the man in the blue shirt had already come to his senses, and while the group of gray-clothed people did not pay attention to him, he quietly got off the horse and took his □□ in his hand, and held the big knife less than half a foot above Miss Cao's head. Miss Cao's body shook and she had passed out on the ground.

In the murderous gaze of the leader, the man smiled slightly: "You have recognized the wrong person!" He is the daughter of the Cao family in Tai'an, Shandong, not the young lady of Jiangning Weaving Mansion! ”

He had a smile on his face, and his heart was already in turmoil. He is also a son of a famous family, and he has traveled north and south since he was a child, and he has seen many more things than those two girls. At this time, he already knew that this group of people was lurking here for some reason with the intention of being unfavorable to the Jiangning Weaving Mansion, and the girl in pink was taken as a correct idea because of the word "Cao", and looking at the appearance of those people, he was afraid that he was not ready to stay alive at all.

His □□ used to be instructed by famous teachers, and he was also a little famous in the Beijing area. But the other party is not one or two, but more than a dozen people, even if he wants to get out, it is not easy, not to mention that he has to protect his sister and Miss Cao. It's always because of his "Miss Cao" that caused this catastrophe, and he can't leave her alone no matter what. He regretted obeying his sister's request to abandon the boat and go ashore, and thought that the world was peaceful, so he only brought two retinues with mediocre skills but steady temperament.

The leader smiled cruelly: "Little white face, are you Miss Cao's good friend?" Do you want heroes to save beauty? Feel relieved! Grandpa, I'll let you guys go on the road together. If you kneel down and kowtow to Grandpa, maybe Grandpa will dig a pit and bury you two together. ”

The man in gray laughed. The man in the blue shirt didn't say anything, and with a shake of □□, he pushed the big knife out and fought with the leader.

"The little white face is a bit of a doorway!" The leader hurriedly responded to the battle, and at the same time ordered his subordinates: "Give this kid to me, you go and pack up the few!" ”

The man in the blue shirt heard what everyone should have said, and he had already rushed over, and his sister was so frightened that she screamed and screamed, and she only felt terrified: "Come on, I didn't expect that I would die here in a daze today!" ”

At this critical moment, there was a sharp sound of breaking the air and a burst of screams one after another.

The leader jumped out of the battle circle and looked around, only to be frightened. In the blink of an eye, his men were staggering, each with two or three arrows stuck in their bodies.

On the way to the south, two tall horses stood in the distance, and immediately two of them were holding bows and arrows in their hands, and one of them shot three arrows in a row. Rao was fast, and only two arrows flashed, and the third arrow still □□ deep into his left thigh.

After all, it was a leader, and he fell to the ground with a strange scream, and then jumped up and shouted: "Retreat! He took the lead and fled into the woods by the roadside. The other gray-clothed men supported each other and walked away in an instant.

The man in the blue shirt went over to help his sister up, comforted him, and carried the fainting girl Cao to the car. The two injured bodyguards also stood up with the help of the little guy and came over to plead guilty. He comforted them a little, told them to rest first, and he caught up with the two horses that were slowly pacing.

When I got closer, I saw that they were actually two famous horses, and the two horses on the horses were dressed differently and looked different, without shaving their hair, but like Mongolians outside the Saiwai. The older one on the left, about twenty years old, wore a black satin robe with dark stripes, a longbow and quiver on horseback, a slightly dark complexion, a hawk nose and thin lips, long hair draped casually over his shoulders, and a resolute and distant expression. The young man on the right, fourteen or fifteen years old, wore a light gray leather jacket, carried a long bow, and wore an arrow bag at his waist, looking heroic, his hair was thinned into braids behind him, and his dark face was full of curiosity. The two are six or seven points similar in appearance, and they are obviously brothers.

The man in the blue shirt stepped forward, knelt down on one knee, and clasped his hands into fists and saluted: "In Xia Lejia Mountain, I would like to thank the two life-saving graces here!" ”

Immediately, the two of them seemed to be used to being kneeled, and they did not dismount to support them. The young man said lightly: "You're welcome. ”

Lejiashan secretly guessed the identities of the two in his heart, and said: "I don't know the names of the two honorable surnames? Please repay the grace of saving your life in the next day! If he hadn't met these two today, I am afraid that none of them would have escaped with their lives, and even their families would not have a clue if they wanted to take revenge.

"It's not enough to raise your hands." The man's expression was still faint, and he was about to walk away.

"Are those people robbers?" The young man blinked and said, "Didn't you say that the emperor of the Central Plains, Shengming, is the world peaceful?" How can there still be robbers? This young man's accent is extremely strong, and Lejiashan can only barely understand it.

The young man frowned when he heard this, but said nothing.

Lejiashan found it strange that as far as he knew, the Mongol tribes were subject to the Manchu regime, and the current emperor was also their Khan, and the young man's words were full of strangeness. He was born in a merchant, he was well versed in human affairs, and he was grateful for the grace of saving him, but he replied truthfully: "From the point of view, this group of people is not robbers, but—"

His words were interrupted by the sound of hurried horses' hooves.

Everyone looked towards the road together, only to see smoke and dust billowing mixed with a few crisp chirps, and a group of people rushed in. At first, there was a carriage, with two fast horses on the left and one on the right, and a small group of men and horses chasing after it.

Lejiashan was shocked, and I don't know what happened. The two Mongols recognized at a glance that it was the group they had surpassed earlier, and the boy seemed to find it amusing.

The carriage was about to stop before approaching, and two girls, one red and one yellow, had jumped down from the carriage, running towards this side, chirping and croaking: "What was the sound just now?" "Have you met the robbers?" "Where are the robbers?" "How did you let them run?"

An old man guarding the car put on the reins and shouted a little weakly: "Miss, come back quickly!" ”

The other horse ran forward a few more steps, and the person on the horse jumped up, flipped in the air and landed in front of the two girls, stopping the castration of the two: "Chu Yan, go back to the car with Miss Cao!" ”

Chu Yan, a girl in a water-red riding suit, hugged the young man's arm and shook it: "Brother Jingyi, let me go over and have a look!" ”

Taking advantage of Jingyi and Chu Yan's tugging, the girl in the goose-yellow riding uniform lowered her head and actually got under Jingyi's arm and ran to the three of them.

"Miss Cao from Jiangning Weaving Mansion?" Lejiashan has deduced from the word "Miss Cao" in the young people's mouths that this group of talents is the right idea for those people in gray to find. He almost killed them, but the two girls were elated, and Baba came to see the excitement, so that he didn't know whether to laugh or be angry.

Miss Cao blinked her eyes widely: "You know me?" ”

Lejiashan smiled bitterly, not knowing how to explain the situation to this eldest lady who didn't know the suffering of the world.

Jing Yilu's hand saw that the young man's eyes lit up: "Your riding skills are really good!" Let's have a contest? ”

Jing Yi, who was entangled with Chu Yan, did not talk. However, Chu Yan heard this young man's strange accent, and when he looked up, he cried out: "Are you Mongolians?" Are you really Mongols?! That's great! She grabbed Jingyi with both hands and couldn't help shaking: "Brother Jingyi, compare with him!" Let's see if you're a half of a Mongol or a whole Mongol! Than that! Than that! ”

The young man himself also had a rude and willful sister, and when he saw that Jingyi was entangled by Chu Yan, he couldn't help but make a big deal for him.

Jing Yi already had experience in dealing with this little girl, so she only asked with a straight face: "What did you promise me when you left the ship this morning?" What did you promise me again? I won't be able to trust you next time! ”

Chu Yan almost immediately let go of his hand, said a few words, and whispered, "Then, I'll wait for Bingyu!" ”

The young man couldn't help but admire Jingyi's two sentences and turned a rude girl into a good girl, and carefully looked the two of them up and down.

Jing Yi is about twenty years old, medium height, ordinary appearance, slender eyes, thick lips, together give people a sense of loyalty, but the light in his eyes makes people feel that this person is not simple.

The girl next to him, Chu Yan, had a low-eyed and pleasing appearance at this time, but she was a typical Jiangnan woman, with fair and delicate skin, melon seed face and big eyes, not a big beauty, but very delicate and generous.

As if sensing the young man's rude gaze, Chu Yan quickly raised his head and kicked him fiercely.

The young man was stunned for a moment, then opened his mouth and laughed a little presumptuously.

His elder brother, who had always seemed to be expressionless, also showed a little smile at the corner of his mouth, dismounted, and walked in front of the two: "You have Mongol blood in you?" ”

"Yes, yes," Chu Yan replied in a hurry, raised his head to meet Jing Yi's stern gaze, and hurriedly tilted his head to the side and shouted: "Ice Jade!" ”

Cao Bingyu agreed and ran over: "Chu Yan, you can't think of it, that group of people just now actually wanted to kill me." As a result, I thought another girl surnamed Cao was me, which scared people out. ”

Hearing that she was not afraid, but as if regretting that she had not been at the right time, the three men were a little surprised.

Jing Yi sighed secretly, Chu Yan really found a difficult sister and a difficult sister, these two people together don't know what kind of catastrophe they are going to break through.

"Really? How stupid! Chu Yan's reaction was comparable to hers.

"That's it! Chu Yan, do you think they will come again? ”

The Mongolian boy had already dismounted with his brother, and he was about to lose his ability to listen to it anymore: "That gang is all armed with big knives, and they are very fierce." If we hadn't arrived, they would have been dead. He thought that the Central Plains woman he saw along the way was boring, she spoke softly, and she couldn't even walk steadily, but these two were too bold!

"That's right! Le Gongzi said that the robbers escaped only after being hit by your arrows! He said your archery was amazing! Cao Bingyu looked reverent.

If Chu Yan's appearance is very delicate, Cao Bingyu can almost be regarded as delicate, with white and tender skin, dark eyes, small nose, tender red lips and goose yellow clothes, like a summer rose. The Mongolian boy suddenly felt a little dizzy.

Jing Yi was a little apprehensive in his heart, not knowing who was going to attack the people of the Cao family, and whether it would affect them. He didn't dare to leave the two girls with these two unknown Mongols, so he had to hope that Cao Fu could figure things out and think of a good countermeasure.

Cao Fu was also surprised when he heard that someone was going to be ineffective with the young lady, and he seemed to know quite well about their whereabouts. Although the two young ladies did not □□ and quarreled for a few days to go ashore to play, the decision to let them go ashore to play for a day was decided by him and Jingyi's mother Luo Zhu this morning. The other party seemed to know immediately, calculated the time to wait here for the rabbit, if it weren't for the two girls who wanted to ride a horse for a while, and were tired for a while to rest, and then ran to the market for a while, and delayed for a long time, I am afraid that today will not be good.

He has followed Cao Yin for many years, and knows that Cao Yin has been favored by Kangxi, and he is an official with exquisite faces, full of scenery on the surface, but there are still many enemies in secret. Cao Yin's official rank is not high, but he has the right to report secretly, and he will be suspicious of any disturbance in Jiangnan officialdom. In the early years, for the matter of Chen Pengnian, the prefect of Jiangning, he had a disagreement with the prince and the governor of Liangjiang, Ashan, and the prince was narrow-minded and held revenge, and it was not impossible to send someone to seek revenge. The anti-Qing forces had always regarded Cao Yin as a Manchu lackey, and it was possible that they would use it to attack Han Chinese officials in Jiangnan.

Seeing Cao Fu's pale face and not speaking for a long time, Lejiashan guessed what he was thinking, and it was not easy to say anything.

Cao Fu was stunned for a while, and said reluctantly: "Today's matter, it is always us who has affected Miss Gongzi. In the next step, I will apologize to my son for my master! As he spoke, he took a deep seat.

Lejiashan hurriedly returned the salute: "After a long time, it is inevitable that you will meet one or two nights." What a crime Lord Cao has! I think that the boy is good, so the old man might as well discuss a countermeasure with him! ”

"That's all there is to it!"

Cao Fu introduced to everyone: "This is the son of the Beijing pharmacy 'Tong Ren Tang' Lejia. It was his sister, Miss Le. "This Miss Tong is the daughter of Tong Shihai, the commander of the Zhejiang Navy Army. Jingyi is one of her older brothers. ”

The two Mongolians also signed up for themselves, the older one was Rilang, and the younger one was called Ce Ling, and they were indeed brothers. Cao Fu and the others knew that this must not be their real names, but seeing that the two of them were extraordinary, they guessed that they might be the sons of a certain Mongolian prince, and they didn't dare to ask more about their identities.

Lejiasha was secretly surprised, but he didn't expect the identity of another girl to be even more noble. It turned out that this girl named Tong Chuyan, although his father was only a third-grade military general, her surname was Tong and she belonged to the Manchurian clan Tong Jia. The biological mother and third empress of the current Kangxi Emperor were born in this family.

Not long after, Cao Xiulan woke up. Because he was worried about encountering bandits again on the road ahead, Lejiashan decided to go on the road with Cao Fu and others, so that he could take care of it. Rilang and Celing are also going north, and they are also going with them.

Tong Chuyan said that Cao Bingyu and Le Yunzhi were originally of the same age, and they were both girls, so they immediately became acquainted, and simply asked Le Yunzhi to sit in their carriage, leaving the frightened Cao Xiulan to rest in the other car. The three girls are laughing and making trouble when you say a word.

The boy named Tsezero rode by the cart and listened to them with a grin. He was not much older than a few girls, he grew up on the grassland, he didn't know what to do with men and women, he was used to seeing the scene of men and women running horses and singing heartily, and he knew a little trick to please girls. But he was born noble, proud by nature, and never took women seriously. It's just that these two girls are fresh and natural, unpretentious, some naughty and willful but more lively and cute, plus beautiful appearances, Wu Nong's soft words, very beautiful, so that he can't help but want to please them, and he did not hesitate to use his means at the moment, carefully depicting the beauty of his hometown, only coaxing the three girls to laugh constantly, and kept asking him about Mongolian customs and customs.

"One of my favorite poems is: The sky is blue, the wilderness is vast, the wind blows the grass and the cattle and sheep are low. I always want to have a chance to see it, but I don't know what kind of magnificence and vastness it is. Listening to you say this today, it turns out that this grassland is not only beautiful, but also very interesting to people! Tong Chuyan said quietly, his face yearning.

Cao Bingyu clapped his hands and smiled: "When we enter the palace, we will ask the emperor for a favor when we have the opportunity, and ask him to bring you and me when he is out on patrol, so that we can see with our own eyes whether what Ce Ling said is true." He squinted at Zero.

On that day, Kangxi went on a tour of the south, lived in her house, and once saw her, and kindly asked her what she read and what she liked to do the most. In Cao Bingyu's heart, although the emperor is majestic, he is also an uncle-like existence, and even those elder brothers are also gentle and amiable.

When it comes to the mention that she will participate in the draft next year, her mother is always gloomy, urging Cao Yin to think of her to be exempted from the draft. But she was excited in her heart, thinking that she could finally leave home, go to Beijing to have a look, and also see what was interesting in the palace.

When they met Chu Yan, the two had similar interests, and they couldn't wait to leave their parents' control early to be free, so they begged their parents in every possible way and went to Beijing with Chu Yan all the way. In the past few days, the two of them have been like birds out of the cage, looking around for freshness.

Cao Bingyu was also a baby in the palm of her parents' hands when she was at home, but she may not be as she wanted, until she saw Mama Luo Zhu's treatment of Chu Yan, she didn't know what it meant to be obedient and obedient. There was also a Jingyi beside her, who didn't frown, silently cleaning up the mess for her.

Along the way, Cao Fu sometimes restrained her, let her be coquettish and begging, and did not let go. Chu Yan only stood there for a while, and sighed: "When we enter the palace, become slaves and maids, and are restrained everywhere, no one will love us anymore!" Cao Fu's body stiffened, and Mama Luo Zhu was about to cry. Chu Yan grimaced at her, and the two of them hid to the side and laughed secretly.

Early this morning, I don't know what Mama Luozhu said to Cao Fu, so I let them go ashore and have a happy day. Cao Fu somehow changed his sex, and said that he wanted to ride a horse, so he found two ponies, and anticipating that her two riding skills were very poor, he called a car to follow from afar, and on the way they heard that there was a market, and frowned and let them go.

Her parents always said that she was ignorant and unsophisticated, and she would suffer a loss when she entered the palace, in fact, she also understood, she had made up her mind early, and she should not be separated from Chu Yan when she entered the palace, it was best to share it with the emperor, no one would dare to bully them, and wherever the emperor went, they all followed to see a lively scene.

"Okay!" Chu Yan said with a smile: "When the time comes, we will be called Ce Ling to be the east, and invite us to eat, drink and have fun!" ”

Ce Ling originally wanted to say that the emperor was going to Saiwai and not to my house, but when he turned his head and saw his brother staring at him, he hurriedly swallowed the words on his lips and said with a smile: "Since you like the grassland, marry into our family!" ”

Cao Tong's second daughter blushed with shame, scolded him repeatedly, turned her head to speak by herself, and refused to pay attention to him.

Tong Chuyan's father was born in the military, her biological mother died early, and Mama Luozhu, who raised her, is a Mongolian, as long as she is healthy and happy, no matter what three and four virtues. Every time her stepmother wanted to discipline her, Mama always had to protect her in every possible way, and even quarreled with her stepmother. Her father regarded Luo Zhu as his own sister, busy with official duties, and when he came home, he had to break the housework case, and he had to complain about his stepmother.

A while ago, Chu Yan made a big incident, and her father was shocked to realize that his daughter had reached the age of the draft, and she was wild and untamable and disobedient, if she entered the palace and caused any big trouble, not only would her own life be difficult to protect, but even the family would be implicated. Together with her stepmother, she decided to send her to Beijing in advance and let her live with her uncle Tong Guowei for a while. On the one hand, Tong Guowei's mother, the old lady of the Tong family, is still alive, let Chu Yan come to her knees to accept joy, and let the old lady and the daughters help control her temperament; On the other hand, please ask Tong Guorong to help with the exemption from the election, and then look at the suitable relatives.

The Tong family can have no two forces in the court today, in addition to the remarkable merits of the ancestors, the current emperor looks at it differently, that is, the Tong family has a large number of talents, and they are united and support each other. The current patriarch, Tong Guowei, the core figure of the "Tong Half Dynasty", is a sophisticated person, and he has always taken more care of his sons and nephews. As the uncle and father-in-law of Emperor Kangxi, he was in a high position and power, and all forces in the court and China vied to make friends with him. As long as Lao Taijun and Tong Guorong are willing to take care of Chu Yan, Chu Yan's affairs will naturally be able to be properly and steady.

Tong Shihai calculated in every possible way, but he never imagined that Chu Yan would meet Cao Bingyu in Jiangning, and with a companion, he was even more unrestrained from then on, and insisted on going his own way, until he almost gave up his life. learned that Chu Yan and Cao Yin's daughter went to Beijing together, and comforted himself that Chu Yan had finally made a friend who knew books and etiquette, and he would be accompanied by some edification day and night, and probably would not act indiscriminately.

Cao Yin knew more about the temperament of the two girls, and was a little uneasy in his heart, and then thought that even if they had something to do on the road, as long as they arrived in the capital, next to the big tree of the Tong family, and the old lady was there, there should be no chaos.

When Cao Bingyu was old, every time he thought of the experience of this day, he would sigh: Everything started from that day!

At this time, Cao Bingyu was still a child, a child who grew up under the wings of his parents, did not know the dangers of the world, and thought that he knew the world and had clever plans. She and Chu Yan muttered about how Jinan was Quancheng, and how the emperor uncovered Mount Tai, but she refused to take care of Ce Ling who was accompanied by a smiling face, who let him offend them with his words.

Their new friend, Le Yunzhi, sat beside them and listened intently.

She grew up with her mother, and her mother disciplined her very strictly, often opening her mouth and closing her mouth to accuse her of being bad here and there, not like a lady, and always asking her to behave properly and not to embarrass her. The death of her mother made her very frightened, but fortunately, her brother was very kind to her and tried his best to make her happy, and the father and grandmother who were about to meet did not seem so terrible. Since she was a child, her mother taught her to read, and she was conceited and a little talented girl, and when she saw Cao Xiulan's side recruitment, she already felt that her knowledge was narrow, but she didn't expect to meet Cao Bingyu and Tong Chuyan again, they were simply people from another world. Seeing that they were not only not sad about entering the palace to be show girls, but also full of interest, Le Yunzhi suddenly felt that her fate was not sad. Infected with their courage and generosity, her lively nature began to stretch.

Hearing that they were planning to go to Mount Taishan, Le Yunzhi glanced at her little feet gloomily, and said angrily: "I can't go!" ”

Cao Bingyu and Tong Chuyan were both stunned, and followed her gaze to see her little entangled: "What is this?" "Most of the female dependents they come to and from are flag people, and they have never seen much of this kind of thing.

Seeing Le Yunzhi inferiority and retracting her feet into her skirt, Tong Chuyan patted the back of her hand: "Don't worry, I have an idea!" Let them find a soft sedan chair and carry you up. It's really not good, I'll let Brother Jingyi carry you up. It will be the top of the mountain, and the mountains will be seen at a glance. At the foot of the mountain, how can you not go up! ”

Seeing that she was really planning for herself, Le Yunzhi was grateful, and when she heard her say that she let the man named Jingyi carry her up the mountain, she couldn't help blushing and bowing her head silently.

Cao Bingyu laughed: "People have their own brothers, there is no need to beg your brother Jingyi!" ”

Tong Chuyan patted his head: "Why did I forget again, rules!" It's not rude to let your brother carry you up the mountain! If you don't have a marriage, it's also good to marry Brother Jingyi! He has good martial arts and a good temper, if I don't have to enter the palace, I will definitely walk the rivers and lakes with him! ”

"I'm going too! How can such an interesting thing be so little for me! Cao Bingyu grabbed Chu Yan.

Tong Chuyan sighed: "Aren't you and I going to enter the palace?" ”

Cao Bingyu rolled his eyes: "Why don't we go to the palace first, and then come out and walk the rivers and lakes with Brother Jingyi after we have had enough?" ”

"Good! I just don't know when I'll be able to come out if I go in. ”

"What are you afraid of. There is my father, and you old lady of the Tong family! As long as we enter the palace to please the emperor, we naturally want to be windy and rainy. Cao Bingyu thought of the emperor's amiable smile.

"I've heard people say that a companion is like a tiger." Le Yunzhi whispered: "You better not enter the palace." ”

"I heard that it's very fun in the palace, Xiyuan, Changchun Garden, how can you see it if you don't enter the palace?" Speaking of which, Cao Bingyu wanted to visit the royal garden.

Tong Chuyan is actually not as confused as his father thought, and he must not be as free as before when he enters the palace, but according to his father's stepmother's intentions, if he doesn't enter the palace, he will find someone to marry her. She doesn't want to marry someone she doesn't know, to be an angry little daughter-in-law, it's better to go into the palace, at least eat and dress well, and have a little more knowledge, if it's really hard to be in the palace, then beg the elders to think of ways to get her out.

She waved her hand: "Don't mention the upset!" Let's plan how to play on the road, no matter what others say, I will definitely climb Mount Tai! ”

Cao Bingyu is naturally also a person who wants to go. Even Le Yunzhi heard that the problems caused by her little feet had been solved, although she was not like Cao Tong and the two who shouted loudly, her face was full of wanting to go.

Turing listened to their funny words, and was reluctant to part with them like this, so he went to discuss it with his brother.

Rilang was originally traveling to the customs this time, and readily agreed.

When they arrived at the ferry, Tong Chuyan's nanny Luo Zhu took people to wait early, and saw that Chu Yan came back safely and satisfied, without causing any trouble, and he was happy in his heart, and he didn't care about anything else.

Luo Zhu's father came from the Mongolian steppe, with a humble status, and he was Tong Guoyao's groom in his early years. Her mother died young, and Tong Guoyao's wife adopted her. Luo Zhu is honest and diligent, and he has won the favor of the Tong family. Even when her married husband died, Mrs. Tong took her mother and son back, and let her two sons study with Tong's children, and she took the initiative to ask to be Chu Yan's nanny.

Although she had never lived in the steppe, the warmth and cheerfulness of the Mongols were deeply rooted in her blood. guessed that Rilang and Ce Ling were noble, and they were carefully received, and they were also cold and warm to the Le brothers and sisters and Cao Xiulan.

What Tong Chuyan wants to do, there has always been a way to get Luo Zhu's consent. Chu Yan can go, Cao Fu naturally can't stop Bingyu. Their desire to climb Mount Tai was approved.

Lejiashan saw that Yun Zhi easily got rid of the sorrow of losing her mother and made two new friends, and she was happy in her heart and did not stop her.

Cao Xiulan's family merged with Cao Yin a few years ago, Cao Xiulan is the young lady of the family, she was frightened this time, Cao Fu originally intended to escort her home, and apologized to her parents by the way, so that she was just on the way.

Cao Xiulan's grandfather, Cao Ning, was a rather proud scholar, thinking that Cao Yin's family defected to the Qing court and ruined the character of the Han people. Cao Xiulan was affected by it, and this time she was almost killed by Cao Yin, and she had a deep prejudice against Cao Bingyu.

She once heard that the Tong family was a Han and had received many favors from the country in the Ming Dynasty, but they were willing to take refuge in the Manchu Qing Dynasty and become a lackey, to fight the Han people, and they also looked down on Chu Yan.
