Chapter 164: Blocked Again
Xiao Shui drove the carriage quickly towards the Li Mansion in Liuyuan Lane, and Song Zizhou and Li Dai stayed in place and waited. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
The Li Mansion in Liuyuan Lane is in the west of Yanjing City, and the Shili Pavilion is ten miles outside the South City Gate, which is really a short distance.
Fortunately, I walked early in the morning, there were not many pedestrians and vehicles on the road, and I didn't have to worry about hitting others, and the carriage went a little faster than usual.
When the carriage turned into Liuyuan Lane from Xiguanzheng Street and walked for half a cup of tea, a group of carriages came to meet it, blocking the way of Zhengrong and others.
Although the Lingering Garden Lane is just a small alley, it is the only way to go from the West City Gate to the gathering place of the family in the south.
The alley was too narrow to accommodate two carriages passing through at the same time. Therefore, one of the teams had to exit the alley completely for the other group to pass.
"Juxiang? What happened? A nice female voice came out of the carriage.
The little maid standing next to the carriage hurriedly stepped forward to explain, "County Lord, there is a carriage coming in front of you, blocking the road. ”
The county lord of Hui'an rubbed her eyebrows, is she at odds with this Liuyuan Lane? Why is it blocked every time I pass by here?
"Which carriage is it?"
Ju Xiang raised her eyes and looked around, saw the sign on the curtain of the carriage, and weighed it in her heart, "If you go back to the county lord, it looks like the new branch champion Li Mansion." ”
The county lord of Hui'an frowned even deeper, it seems that she is not at odds with this Liuyuan Lane, but with the Li Mansion!
Zheng Rong was talking to Zijing, when suddenly the carriage stopped, Zheng Rong frowned, what's the matter, Song Zizhou and they are still waiting there.
"What's going on?"
Xiao Shui looked at the oncoming luxury carriage, and knew that it was not something that he could afford to provoke, so he consciously reined in the horse after a long distance, "Young master, the road is blocked." ”
Generally, in this case, the status of the noble person comes first, which is an unwritten rule.
Of course, Zhengrong understands that this is the capital, not a small place like Pingdu, and there may be bricks falling from the wall here, and all that is smashed is a third-grade master.
A petty official like Li Dai who is from the sixth grade is probably not qualified to let others make way.
"Do you know which house it is?"
"The villain doesn't know, but it looks like the county lord's honor guard."
Princess? Sure enough, it's not something I can afford to mess with.
"Then let's exit first, let the county lord go first!" Zheng Rong commanded.
I don't know which county lords in the capital are Zhengrong, and the only thing I've heard of is the county lord of Hui'an who inadvertently saved Li Dai's life, but no matter how bad the county lord is, it is impossible for him to fall to the point of making way for his own family, which involves the face of the royal family.
Ju Xiang watched the carriage on the opposite side retreat, and reported to the county lord of Hui'an, "County lord, they have withdrawn." ”
It's still a good acquaintance of the people of the Li Mansion, but wasn't Li Dai sent to Huainan by the emperor? Could it be that the lady of the Li Mansion is sitting in this carriage? Calculate the time, go to Shili Pavilion to send people, and come back at this time.
The lord of Hui'an, who was ten years old, was curious, and when the carriage passed around the corner of the alley, he lifted the curtain and looked out.
Just as the breeze gently blew the corner of the curtain of the carriage of the Li Mansion, the county lord of Hui'an happened to see the side face of the grand man sitting in the carriage.
Seeing that it was a little boy, Hui'an County was stunned for a moment, and then lowered her head a little shyly, she had never seen other foreign men since she was a child, except for her father and brother.
However, he was so good-looking, fair-skinned and blackened as ink.
Except for her cousin, she hadn't seen anyone better than him.
Just this glimpse left an indelible impression in the heart of the county lord of Hui'an.
"Ju Xiang, go and thank the young master of the Li family."
Although the little maid Juxiang wondered how her county lord knew that the young master of the Li family was sitting in the carriage, she had always been well-behaved and would not ask more.
Came to the side of the carriage parked at the intersection, and curtstoed a blessing salute, "The slave maid is ordered by the county lord of Hui'an, and Young Master Xie Li gives way." ”
Lord of Hui'an? Zijing frowned, wasn't it the county lord who saved Li Dai last time?
Zheng Rong didn't think about how the county lord of Hui'an knew that she was sitting in the car, and now that people have come to thank her, it is too rude to be silent.
"Yes, the county lord is noble, so we naturally have to avoid it."
After hearing this, Ju Xiang saluted again, "The slave and maid have retired, so don't disturb the young master of the Li family and go home." ”
But after a while, the sound of a wheel sounded, and it should be the county lord's convoy gone.
It wasn't until the sound faded away that she spoke, "Let's go!" ”
The little bolt answered, raised the horsewhip and whipped it, and hurried towards his house.
Song Zizhou and Li Dai had been waiting in Shili Pavilion for more than an hour, and when they saw that the carriage had not returned, they couldn't help but feel a little worried.
It's only an hour's time to go back and forth from here to Lingering Garden Lane, why is it delayed for so long? Isn't something wrong?
Li Dai looked at Song Zizhou and frowned, thinking that he was a little impatient to wait, so he hurriedly comforted, "It's coming soon, do you want to go first?" I then caught up with myself. ”
In fact, he himself was worried that the two most important people were sitting in the carriage, and there was only one small servant following, what if there was any accident?! At this time, he regretted that he didn't let Wang Shaoqing follow, but fortunately, his safety was guaranteed.
Song Zizhou knew that he was accompanying Li Dai, he must be under a lot of pressure, but he still had to accompany him.
Ben Lei was grazing on the side of the road, and he himself leaned on the pillar of the Ten Mile Pavilion, and asked faintly, "Do you recognize the road?" ”
Li Dai stopped talking, he really didn't know the road, and the ghost knew how to go in Huainan?! He's not a driver, so he doesn't have to catch a car, how can he know how to get the road?! Not to mention. He had never been to Huainan.
Get! His uncle loves to wait, just wait.
The two were in a stalemate for about a quarter of an hour before the little bolt arrived late in the carriage.
After the carriage stopped, Li Dai took the lead in rushing to the carriage, "What's wrong?" Why did you come so late? ”
Xiao Xuan timidly glanced at Prince Chu, and saw that he also had doubts in his eyes, so he replied, "The journey was quite smooth, but I happened to meet the carriage of the county lord of Hui'an in Liuyuan Lane, and the second young master asked him to withdraw the carriage from the alley and make way for the county lord of Hui'an, which was delayed for some time." ”
Li Dai nodded, Liuyuan Lane is indeed a little narrow, and you can't pass two carriages at the same time.
However, this county lord of Hui'an is really related to their house.
Only Song Zizhou's eyes were a little unclear, Zhengrong's girl had never been big or small in front of him, but now she had to make way for others......
Seeing that he didn't speak for a long time, Li Dai turned his head and glanced at him, "Lord Wang, can you go?" ”
Song Zizhou looked at his face, which was good-looking, but not at all like Zhengrong, and turned his face away, "Let's go!" (To be continued.) )
