Mei Ru didn't have time to get angry, let alone teach Meng Yunlan to ride a horse, so she received a letter from her mother's own order, urging her to return to Beijing quickly.

The wedding date of the eldest sister and Xie Ke is scheduled for May, and seeing that it is almost April, it will take more than half a month on the way back to Beijing, in case other things are delayed......

Mei Ru did the math, it was indeed time to go back.

After she mentioned this to Xiao Qiao, Xiao Qiaoshi had no opinion, and replied briskly: "Let's go together." In this way, he planned to return to Beijing in three days.

As soon as she heard the news, Meng Yunlan began to be reluctant to give up her father, Meng Zheng was reluctant to give up her daughter-in-law, but Xiao Qiao's family thought that the father and daughter were troublesome.

Looking at her uncle's family, Mei Ru only felt funny in her heart, and thought that she had to go to the camp outside the city to find her brother.

Mei Xiang is now in the camp. The injuries on his body were not good at all, but after returning from Hu Ren, he went directly to the camp, and he did not listen to anyone's advice, and he was stubborn to death. Mei Ru has always been relieved.

She had already inquired with her uncle before she went, and when she learned that her brother had been doing chores in the stable, Mei Ru's heart was a little sour. When she actually saw her brother, Mei Ru was still stunned.

I saw that my brother was dressed in coarse cloth, and he was pouring horse manure back and forth!

Mei Xiang has never done hard work since she was a child, and she is dirty all over her body at this time, and the cuffs of her robe and the hem of her clothes are all dirty. Busy now, his face is already full of sweat, and he wiped it indiscriminately, and his white face has long been dark, where is the original handsome and graceful appearance?

Mei Ru saw it in her eyes, her eyes were hot, and she shouted "brother" highly.

"Follow the flow!" Mei Xiang turned around and answered, but the movements in his hands did not stop, and he explained: "Don't come here, stand there and wait for my brother." As he spoke, he bent down and scooped out some horse manure, piled it on top of the cart beside him, and later pushed it into the fields outside the camp. After shoveling this shovel, Mei Xiang dusted off the hem of his clothes and walked over.

As soon as he got closer, Mei Ru frowned when she smelled the smell: "Brother, why did you think of coming here?" "I heard my uncle say that my brother invited himself to the stable to do chores, which was really unexpected by Mei Ru.

"Brother, I am a powerless man, I can't pick up my shoulders, I can't lift my hands, I can't go into battle for a while, and there are no idlers in the camp, so I came here to do chores first." Mei Xiang smiled faintly, Nunu mouthed, and said to the stable: "There is the most shortage of people here, and no one wants to do it, so I'll try it." Afraid that my sister would be worried, I specially comforted Mei Ru: "Uncle said, when new recruits are recruited this year, I will follow them to practice." ”

Hearing these words, Mei Ru felt more and more relieved, and said approvingly: "It's good that my brother can see it." ”

It's not big or small...... Mei Xiang raised her hand and was about to knock her on the head, Mei Ru hurriedly covered her head and hidden, her hand was empty, Mei Xiang deliberately bluffed her face and asked her: "Follow the rules, what are you going to do today?" ”

Mei Ru thought of serious business and hurriedly took out the letter sent from the house.

Mei Xiang took it and looked at it, and said, "Follow it, my mother is urging you to go back to Beijing." ”

"Yes, brother." Mei Ru replied, "I left with my aunt and Yunlan in three days. ”

Mei Xiang read the letter carefully, and then told Mei Ru: "When I go back, when I see my father and mother and my ancestors, don't say anything about my injury, and don't mention that I am doing chores here in the stable, so as not to worry about my father and mother when they hear it." ”

"Yes." Mei Ru nodded obediently. If my mother knew that my brother was doing these hard work, I would definitely be reluctant.

After folding the letter and putting it away, Mei Xiang did not forget to advise: "Don't forget to visit your sister-in-law often, there is no shortage of silver." He said it very smoothly, and as soon as he finished speaking, he was stunned and sighed, and then he reluctantly changed his words: "Don't forget to go and see her." ”

Mei Ru nodded naturally.

After hesitating for a while, Mei Xiang specially instructed: "If she has set a good family, follow the rules, remember to send a letter to your brother." ”

What can a letter do? It's nothing more than a broken thought.

Mei Ru sighed in her heart, secretly thinking that such a good sister-in-law would not know who she would be given to someone else.

The brother and sister talked a little longer, and Mei Xiang bombarded her, pointing to the stable and said, "I have a lot of work here, follow you and go back quickly." After sending her into the carriage, Mei Xiang said again: "Follow the rules, my brother won't be going to see you off in three days, don't run around with your aunt on the way back to Beijing, don't get into trouble, and be obedient." ”

Hearing these careful words, Mei Ru's eyes couldn't help but turn red again, "Brother! She called softly.

Mei Xiang's eyes were also a little red, he turned his head and ordered the coachman, and the carriage hurried forward.

Mei Ru was caught off guard, and hurriedly poked her head out of the curtain to look back.

I saw my brother standing alone at the gate of the camp, so dirty all over his body, because he was injured, he was getting thinner and thinner.

Just looking at this look, Mei Ru couldn't stand it, she hurriedly hid back in the car, lowered her head and wiped her tears.

"Don't cry, girl!" Jingqin hurriedly persuaded, "It's a good thing that the old man stays here, we have to go back to give the old lady good news." ”

Mei Ru wiped her tears and poked her head out to look again. But the carriage has gone far, where can I still see my brother?

Mei Ru sat back in the car, thinking of her brother's appearance before, she was still uncomfortable.

She returned to the inn with red eyes, just in time to meet the two highnesses who had come back from nowhere. Seeing Fu Zheng, the fire in Mei Ru's heart rushed, but she didn't want to talk to this person even more, she was blessed at this time, and she didn't care about these two people, and went straight inside.

Clinker Fu Zhao caught up in three or two steps, and laughed at her: "Xunxun, your eyes are so red, you must have cried!" ”

Hearing the teasing meaning in his words, Mei Ru was annoyed, and was about to glare at him, when she caught a glimpse of Fu Zheng standing behind her out of the corner of her eye. With a roll of her eyes, Mei Ru changed her mind, simply paused her steps, and said deliberately: "Blame Your Highness for talking too much, causing a good painting of mine to be ruined, how can I not be embarrassed?" ”

"What's going on?" Fu Zhao scratched his head in confusion.

It seemed that he didn't know anything, Mei Ru spread her hands and said: "Your Highness, just because you told Miss Zhou about my painting, now you are ridiculed by everyone, everyone says that my painting is ugly, and it was taken by someone to become his without permission, and I don't even ask what I mean!" Speaking of this, Mei Ru tilted her head and asked, "Your Highness, do you say that this person is annoying?" Am I supposed to be angry? ”

In the afterglow, Fu Zheng's face was cold and tense, his thin lips were pursed, and he didn't step forward, just stood there and watched quietly.

"There are still such people?" Fu Zhao was incredulous, and said indignantly, "Who hates it so much? This prince will teach him a lesson for you! ”

Mei Ru smiled coldly, and said again: "I'm afraid that Your Highness, you won't be able to teach you a lesson." ”

With that, she took care of herself and went to the inn by herself. Jingqin heard a cold sweat in the back. She quietly glanced at His Royal Highness King Yan behind her.

The man stood there with his hands in his hands, looking at him with a faint expression, but he was also the most terrifying.

Jingqin hurriedly lowered her head and followed the three girls in.

Leaving Fu Shiyi confused there, he turned around and asked, "Seventh brother, do you know about this?" ”

Fu Zheng glanced at the back of the sharp-toothed little girl again. Leng Leng retracted his gaze, he didn't say a word, and walked in.

Seeing this, Fu Zhao became more and more inexplicable. After a pause, he slapped his head and suddenly realized: "That person is Seventh Brother!" He stuck out his tongue, and no wonder he couldn't teach him anything.

Let's say that Mei Ru walked to the post house, and when she passed the middle courtyard, there was a heavy footstep behind her. It's Fu Zheng! At this time, it will be late, and the post keepers of the post house will all go home or find a place to laze and rest, where is there anyone else?

Mei Ru frowned slightly, and heard the person behind her really call her: "Three girls." "The voice was low, oppressive. Mei Ru frowned and turned back coldly.

She didn't speak, and her two eyes poked straight at her, still like throwing a knife, and it seemed that she was really angry.

Fu Zheng said: "This king has something to tell you." ”

Mei Ru said: "I have nothing to say to Your Highness. ”

Fu Zheng guessed that she would be like this. He stepped forward and threatened: "Since the third girl has nothing to say, let's listen for the time being." ”

“……”

Mei Ru was dumbfounded, raising her eyes and glaring at him.

Clinker Fu Zheng just lowered his eyes. The inky black eyes looked at her fixedly, and after a while, he only said: "This king didn't mean to touch the painting of the third girl." ”

Mei Ru sneered.

The smile was too cold, so Fu Zheng explained more: "Whether the three girls believe it or not, this king just wants to round up for the girl." ”

Mei Ru naturally didn't believe it.

She lazily bowed and thanked perfunctorily: "Heh, thank you for Your Highness's roundness." He choked unceremoniously: "It's just that I didn't know that His Royal Highness was talking about such ridiculous words for others." Mei Ru didn't forget, this person said that her pen was a little immature, the overall frame was not good, and it was too sloppy and casual...... Sweep her face every word! Thinking of it, Mei Ru continued to choke: "Your Highness, I know that you have high attainments in painting, and you don't look down on me as an unruly person, I just hope that you won't stain your eyes again in the future!" ”

She slashed every word like a knife, and Fu Zheng's eyes shrank suddenly. He pursed his lips and didn't say anything more, just looked at the man in front of him.

Mei Ru didn't bother to look at him anymore, blessed herself, said goodbye to this person, and went to the house.

This call finally relieved her a little. Mei Ru's heart finally felt a little more comfortable. The clinker went back to the room to rest for tea, Meng Yunlan brought a piece of news, and Mei Ru was uncomfortable again.

Zhou Suqing wants to go back to Beijing with them!

Mei Ru only felt upset, and couldn't help but wonder: "This person has just come to Pingliang, how can he be willing to go back to Beijing with us?" - Fu Zheng will continue to stay in Pingliang, discuss the follow-up arrangements with Hui Tu, and also ask Chak to deduct military salaries, so how could Zhou Suqing be willing to leave?

Meng Yunlan said: "Just now, His Royal Highness King Yan asked her to follow us back to Beijing." ”

Fu Zheng?

Mei Ru was a little puzzled, if he didn't go back to Beijing, how could he just let Zhou Suqing go back?

After thinking about it again, Mei Ru knew that Fu Zheng was afraid that he wanted to avoid suspicion.

All of them left, leaving Zhou Suqing here, although there was permission from the saint, but after digging deeper, there was some indescribable relationship with Fu Zheng.

Mei Ru chuckled. Fu Zheng is really cold, it was easy for people to chase her here, so they sent her away so lightly......

Since it came to His Royal Highness King Yan, Meng Yunlan changed the topic and said with a smile: "Follow the path, my mother and Zhou Suqing didn't see the reason for your painting, but His Royal Highness King Yan saw it and painted it all for you, is there a light on your face?" ”

"A light on your face?" Mei Ru sneered on her face.

Meng Yunlan bit her ear and said, "Follow the rules, you didn't see Zhou Suqing, she had a black face at that time!" Thinking of Zhou Suqing's face, Meng Yunlan couldn't help laughing when she was in a good mood, and whispered: "She and His Royal Highness King Yan are the best, I definitely didn't expect His Royal Highness King Yan to bother so much......

Mei Ru was stunned when she heard this, and she suddenly thought of Fu Zheng's previous words, this king just wants to round up for you, girl...... Therefore, Fu Zheng guessed that she would be teased by Zhou Suqing, so he specially completed her painting?

Mei Ru was still frowning, and she didn't want to think about anything related to this person at all.

Three days later, Mei Ru and her entourage returned to Beijing.

Meng Zheng sent a few personal soldiers to send them to Shaanxi, and on the other hand, Fu Zheng asked Fu Zhao to follow, so that he could take care of them along the way.

On the day she left Pingliang City, Mei Xiang really didn't come, Mei Ru poked her head and looked around for a while, a little disappointed. She shrunk back into the carriage.

Fu Zheng was explaining to Fu Zhao at that time, when he suddenly saw a head popping up by the curtain of the car, and he didn't know what he was looking at, so he quickly hid in again.

He looked at the curtain quietly, but the man didn't lean out again, nor did he look at him again.
