Chapter 2: Old Knowledge
Bumpy all the way, after three days of travel, the group finally arrived at the long-lost capital, looking at the moat An Yunxi lost his mind for a while, if he hadn't fallen into this moat and hadn't been rescued by Anxi City, would he be dead or alive now?
"Thinking about the old days again? It was just an accident at the time, and no one thought that the bridge would collapse at that time. Pen, Fun, Pavilion www.biquge.info "An Xicheng looked at An Yunxi and looked at the moat and thought that she was thinking about the river again, so he hurriedly walked over and comforted.
Knowing that Anxi City had misunderstood, An Yunxi nodded slightly and turned sideways to Anxi City and said, "Father has arrived in the capital now, I want to go around alone, you can go back to the other courtyard first." ”
"Then how can I let Xin'er go with me, otherwise how can your father and I rest assured that my flower-like daughter will be left alone on this street." Anxi Cheng directly refused.
"Father, I'm already in the prime of my life now, how could I get lost in broad daylight, you can go back to the courtyard to rest with peace of mind, and I promise to go home before dark." An Yunxi looked at Anxi City with a pleading face.
It's not that he doesn't want Xin'er to follow, but I'm worried that Xin'er will feel that his actions are strange when the time comes.
"Nope." Anxi Cheng resolutely refused, she was not familiar with the life in the capital, five years ago, he took her to look around, if she was lost in this huge capital, where would she find this baby daughter? Looking at his daughter's slightly lost face, Anxi Cheng was a little reluctant, and after thinking about it again, he tentatively spoke: "Then Daddy will accompany you to go shopping?" ”
"My father has worked hard enough after three days of traveling, and I can't let my father accompany me anymore, so I'll take Xin'er to go shopping." An Yunxi smiled slightly, it seems that she really can't act alone. Glancing at Xin'er standing beside Anxi Cheng, An Yunxi smiled at Anxi Cheng: "Xin'er is down-to-earth and steady, my father can rest assured, with her with me, my father doesn't have to worry about my safety." ”
Xin'er on the side listened to An Yunxi's words and complained bitterly, when did her young lady listen to her own words? When didn't you get led away by the nose by the young lady? Don't look at the young lady of your own family, who is quiet and gentle on the surface, but in fact she is a thousand-year-old fox with a black belly and died, and now I will pray for a while that the young lady will not throw herself on the street.
Anxi Cheng knew that he couldn't convince his daughter, so he could only nod and agree: "Then you have to go back to the other courtyard before dark, and we will go to your Uncle Zhang's house early tomorrow morning." ”
"Father, rest assured, I've already come to the capital, will I still be able to run away?" An Yunxi didn't say anything more to Anxi City, and walked to the city with Xin'er.
Entering the city gate is a noisy street, all the way people pass by An Yunxi's side passers-by will always look back at this beautiful woman, Xin'er's eyes are full of curiosity and excitement when she comes to the capital for the first time, and the calm and calm expression on An Yunxi's face is completely inconsistent, An Yunxi looked back at the people and frowned tightly. Isn't that too eye-catching?
"Miss, where are we going?" The excited Xin'er looked around at the dazzling things on the market, and asked An Yunxi curiously.
"Take you to a good place." An Yunxi looked at Xin'er's excited appearance, smiled faintly at her, and entered a cloth workshop.
After a while, Xin'er looked at the clothes on her body and the dress on her young lady, and the whole person was stunned, and asked An Yunxi a little unclearly: "Miss, why are we wearing men's clothes?" ”
The woman was dressed in men's clothes, and this was the first time she had seen someone do this since she was born.
A smile flashed on An Yunxi's beautiful face, a hint of cunning flashed in her bright eyes, she took a piece of cloth and walked to Xin'er, stretched out her hand to untie Xin'er's combed bun, and imprisoned Xin'er's hair with strips of cloth twice, looking like a delicate little scholar at a glance.
"Men can avoid a lot of trouble when they go out, but women can get a lot of trouble when they go out." An Yunxi said as she reached out to uncover her bun and tied her hair up high, and soon a handsome boy appeared in front of Xin'er.
"Oh..." Xin'er nodded as if she didn't understand: "It turns out that Miss is afraid that she is too beautiful and will cause trouble." ”
An Yunxi was defeated by Xin'er's straightforwardness, and as soon as the hand holding the bun was loosened, she almost tied her hair up, but the shopkeeper who was standing on the side and watching the interaction between the master and servant nodded approvingly, this girl is so good-looking, even if she changes into men's clothes, she can't hide her charm, such a face can fascinate thousands of girls when she is a man, and she can also confuse all beings when she is a woman.
Charming but not charming, charming but not demonic, beautiful but not glamorous, she is really a rare woman in the world.
After paying the money and walking out, the master and servant are no longer the identity of the young lady and maid, but the identity of the boy and the scholar.
Although there are still many people looking back on the street, there are also a lot of strange eyes from men, more of a woman's appreciation and a man's scrutiny, and less of that kind of obscene and trivial gaze An Yunxi is much more comfortable walking on the road.
"Childe, where are we going?" Xin'er asked An Yunxi in a low voice, deliberately making her voice sound like a man. Just now, Miss said that they can't reveal their identities as girls, otherwise they will cause annoyance.
An Yunxi listened to Xin'er's awkward voice and raised her eyebrows: "Xin'er, as long as you don't jump around excitedly like a little girl, others will still not hear you." "The implication is that you should speak normally.
Xin'er's eyes lit up, Miss is so smart, as long as her voice is quieter, no one will hear her voice. The excited Xin'er stepped forward quickly and walked a step behind An Yunxi, following closely, she decided to be a maid who only did not do much.
An Yunxi felt the change in Xin'er, the smile on the corner of her mouth flashed, and she walked quickly towards the place in her memory, and the hand holding the fan slowly tightened, five years have passed, father, brother, Xi'er, your soul is still wrapped around the top of the Right Prime Minister's Mansion waiting for me to come back and avenge you?
Looking at the barren ruins An Yunxi stood firmly in place, even after five years of wind and rain, he could still see the charred wooden stakes here, looking at the weeds growing from the bandits, An Yunxi felt a heartache, and the hand holding the fan tightly had fallen into the palm.
Xin'er saw that something was wrong with An Yunxi, so she hurriedly stepped forward and asked softly, "What's wrong with Miss?" Is there something uncomfortable? ”
Hearing Xin'er's concern, An Yunxi shook her head gently: "No, I just feel that there seems to have been some catastrophe here." ”
"Miss, a real and kind person, can feel sad for a long time when she sees a house that has been burned down for several years." Xin'er said and stretched out her hand to support An Yunxi, pointing to the woods next to her: "There is a big stone under the tree over there, Miss go and sit there for a while." ”
"No need, you Miss and I are not so weak." Turning his head to glance at Xin'er, An Yunxi's gaze returned to the ruins.
"Qing'er?" An Yunxi had just rejected Xin'er's request when an uncertain male voice sounded behind the two.
Hearing the voice, An Yunxi's whole body was stunned, and the hand holding the fan was also loosened, Qing'er? How long has it been since anyone has heard this name called?
"Yan Qing is you, right? I knew you weren't dead, Qing'er! Seeing that An Yunxi didn't answer, the man stepped forward in two steps and spoke excitedly.
"You recognize the wrong person this son, our family is small, our son is not a clear child." Xin'er, who was anxious to protect the master, watched the man approach her young lady and hurriedly stepped forward to stop the person who came, protecting An Yunxi behind her. This man must have noticed Miss's beauty before she changed her clothes, so he followed her all the way!
An Yunxi didn't care about Xin'er's movements, looking at the handsome face of the person who came, a trace of shock flashed in his eyes and he quickly regained his composure, but he didn't expect to meet an old acquaintance just after entering the city.
I didn't expect that he still remembered Yan Qing.
