Chapter 2 The Encounter in Jiangcheng

"Miss, take Yun Niang with you." Yun Niang looked at Yuan Shanjia pleadingly.

Yuan Shanjia looked at the woman in front of him who was obviously only in her twenties, but already had a trace of gray hair, and hesitated a little.

She also wanted to take her back with her, but when she thought of the inconvenience that her identity would bring, she was ruthless, "Yun Niang, the place I'm going to is not suitable for you, and I'll pick you up when I'm settled." ”

"Is it dangerous?" Yun Niang was very worried and a little unwilling.

She wanted to follow, but she was afraid that it would be a burden to go.

"Don't worry, Yun Niang, how can there be danger?" Yuan Shanjia smiled, "I found my own background." Yun Niang, you have to be happy for me. I'm going back to my family. But because I am not familiar with the situation, it is not good to tell you, and it is even more difficult to take you there. ”

"Family?"

"Besides, I still need you to take care of my property. Yun Niang, you'll help me, right? Yuan Shanjia changed the topic and was unwilling to say more about his life experience.

"Don't worry, Miss, Yun Niang will definitely keep Miss's property." Yun Niang gritted her teeth and nodded.

Although she was a little unwilling, she didn't want to be a burden herself. She wanted to have the ability to protect Miss.

If she had the ability, her children would not ......

"Yun Niang, I'm leaving." Yuan Shanjia waved his hand and boarded the carriage.

"Miss, take care." Yun Niang leaned on the gate, looking at the distant convoy, with tears in her eyes.

What she doesn't know is that this distinction is that things are wrong.

"Uncle Wen, hurry up and go to Jiangcheng." After walking for a while, Yuan Shanjia lifted the curtain of the door and said to Uncle Wen, who was driving the car.

"Yes, miss." When Uncle Wen heard this, he "drove" and drove the horse forward quickly.

Although the speed of the carriage increased, there were not many bumps in the car.

Yuan Shanjia lifted the curtain halfway and hung it next to him, looking at the galloping scenery outside the window in a daze.

Ten days ago, news came back from Jiangcheng that Yundu had sent envoys to Jiangcheng and other southern regions to inspect and was about to arrive in Jiangcheng.

Yuan Shanjia knew when she heard that the opportunity she had been waiting for for ten years had finally come. He, Lin Zicong, the first army division under General Yuan Da, will inspect the Jiangcheng area as the minister of the imperial court, mainly to hold the military rights of Jiangcheng Sima Gou Yulin hostage.

Although Jiangcheng belongs to the border area, it is close to Dongguo, one of the three major countries, and has developed commerce, both economically and culturally.

It is precisely because of this that the troops stationed in Jiangcheng are also the most powerful in Yun Country except for Yundu. Jiangcheng Sima Gou Yulin, as the military ruler in the Jiangcheng area, was naturally suspicious and guarded by the emperor.

The Emperor of Yunguo sent envoys to Jiangcheng every year, first, to transport the taxes received by Jiangcheng, and secondly, to test Gou Yulin's strength. Moreover, in order to prevent the people who go from colluding with Gou Yulin, different military attaches will be dispatched every year, and they are temporarily dispatched.

And this year, it was General Yuan's turn, but General Yuan was stationed in the capital and could not leave casually, so Lin Zicong, the first army division under him, went there.

Recalling his previous life, after Yuan Shanjia was sold to the Red Mansion in Jiangcheng, he was raised from childhood to adulthood, so he never had the consciousness of escaping.

It was also her luck that when she was about to leave the cabinet, she met Lin Zicong to inspect Jiangcheng. And their place of connection was precisely in the Red Mansion. Because of this, he was recognized by mistake and returned to the Yuan family.

And in this life, since she left the Red Mansion, she has been waiting for this news.

Originally, Lin Zicong should have come earlier, but I don't know what the reason is, which caused the imperial court to delay sending people to inspect. It was also for this reason that Yuan Shanjia had nightmares for a few nights.

Two days later, Jiangcheng was in sight.

There are two big characters of Jiangcheng hanging on the high city tower, revealing a simple atmosphere, and three words of the West City Gate are written below Jiangcheng.

"It's finally here." Looking at Jiang Cheng from afar, Yuan Shanjia's previous anxious feeling calmed down autonomously.

The gates of the city were bustling, and there were many people coming in and out.

"Everyone who enters the city is lined up! Get in line! The soldier at the door was fierce and pushed twice at the people who were queuing up.

Uncle Wen drove the carriage forward, and saw that the soldiers at the city gate kept checking, and the inspection was very careful and strict.

So, he asked the young man in blue who was driving in a carriage next to him, "This little brother, what happened here?" Why do you suddenly have to check so carefully? I didn't even have to check when I went out before? Why do you have to check it when you come back? Could it be that the eastern kingdom is coming? ”

"Uncle! This is not nonsense. The little brother in blue was startled, waved his hand again and again, looked left and right for a while, and then asked, "Uncle, it seems that you have been out for a while, right?" ”

"It wasn't long, just four or five days ago." Uncle Wen smiled.

"Then it's no wonder." The little brother in blue is also an enthusiastic person, and seeing that there is still a long line anyway, he chatted with Uncle Wen.

"Isn't it time to ship taxes to Yundu again? Yundu is about to send people, so naturally it is going to start being strict. ”

"Oh. I see, I forgot about it. Uncle Wen suddenly realized, and said inadvertently, "I don't know which adult is coming this year, but we have to take a good look at it when the time comes, we are not high-ranking officials who often come to Yundu." ”

The little brother in blue drove the carriage forward along the procession, and whispered mysteriously: "I heard that this year it is General Yuan's subordinate Mr. Lin." ”

"Mr. Lin? But the First Army Division under General Yuan? Uncle Wen's eyes widened in surprise, but he had another thought in his heart: It seems that the information is correct, it is indeed General Yuan's people who came to inspect. Fortunately, I had the foresight to come out and was fully prepared, otherwise the young lady might not have been able to get in.

"That's the one." The little brother in blue showed a look of adoration, "I admire him very much." His most commendable thing is the battle of Lucheng that year, thinking that back then, he scared off the army of Wu on the city tower with the strength of one person, what a heroic posture, but unfortunately I was not born at that time, otherwise I would definitely join his army and gallop on the battlefield with him. Even if you can't retreat the enemy with him, it's better to pay respects. ”

The line of the little brother in blue was faster, and he was about to say something, when he found that the person in front of him was empty, "Ah, I'll go first." ”

He hurriedly drove the carriage up, handed the voucher for entering the city to the soldier, and said with a smile: "Brother soldier, I'm sorry for you." ”

"Next." The soldiers defending the city ignored him and shouted with a serious face.
