Chapter XXVI
On February 13, Mei Ru left Beijing with Xiao Qiao's and Meng Yunlan.
Qiao Shi hugged her daughter, her eyes were about to cry and swell: "Follow the road, you must listen to your aunt on the road, don't run around, don't get into trouble, stay in peace!" He also said: "When you see your brother, let him be more careful...... "A lot of chatter, and finally thought of something, and specially advised: "Follow the rules, my mother prepared your favorite plums and halva for you, just put them in the back, don't forget, remember to eat them on the way." β
Mei Ru originally wanted to shed tears, but when she heard the end, she couldn't help laughing: "Mother, I know everything." β
Seeing that his daughter was actually laughing, Qiao became more and more angry: "Little guy with no conscience! β
Xiao Qiaoshi couldn't listen to it anymore, and persuaded: "Sister, with me, it will be fine, don't worry." β
Looking at her deeply, Qiao Shi said, "I really don't feel at ease with you......"
After saying goodbye to Mei Yin and Qiao's family, Mei Ru went to bid farewell to her ancestors, and after listening to the lesson of repeating the same old tune, Mei Ru finally came out of Mei Mansion, and she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.
There were three carriages in total, one for Xiao Qiao's own, one for Meng Yunlan and Mei Ru, and the last one for luggage and the pen, ink, paper, inkstone and books that Xiao Qiao's had to bring with him wherever he went - Xiao Qiao's was a person who couldn't do without these.
Meng An sent them to Baoding this time.
He rode his horse, and he stood by the side of the carriage, waiting for them.
When Mei Ru saw him, she shouted "cousin".
Meng An pursed his lips, and finally saved those messy greetings, and only wisely replied with three words: "Cousin Ru." β
But he still looks like a wooden man, where does he look like a merry man in a book?
Meiru still wanted to laugh.
As soon as there was a smile in her eyes, Meng An was embarrassed again, and her white face turned red.
The group went out of the city, went straight to the official road, and walked all the way to the northwest.
Mei Ru and Meng Yunlan stayed in the car, and it was easy to chatter when they got together, talking all the way. Meng An rode outside, listening to the sound floating from inside, and couldn't help frowning, why did my sister and cousin Ru talk so much?
On the ground, the car stopped, Meng An just thought there was something, and hurriedly patted the horse over. But I saw Cousin Ru's personal maid get out of the car, walked to the carriage behind and didn't know what to take, and returned to the car. Meng An was puzzled, and he didn't want to ask too much, and in the next moment, he saw the curtain of the car lifted, revealing a small half of a bright face.
Mei Ru asked him, "Cousin, do you want to eat plums?" β
Meng An was embarrassed and shook his head. Seeing that her expression seemed a little disappointed, he reluctantly said, "Then try one." β
Mei Ru was very generous and gave him a pack casually.
Meng An inexplicably had an extra bag of plums in his hand, holding it heavily in his hand, he frowned and tasted one, and was very surprised to find that it was not as sour as he imagined, and there was a hint of sweetness. He ate another one before putting it in his sleeve pocket.
On this day, the group rested at the Zhuozhou Post House.
The accompanying maids were busy moving their luggage in, the mother-in-law went in to clean up, Mei Ru and Meng Yunlan were about to get out of the car, when they heard Meng An greeting people outside-it seemed that they had met some acquaintance. Mei Ru quietly lifted the curtain and looked cautiously. At this look, I couldn't help frowning.
The one who was talking to Meng An with his head up and pretending to be an adult over there was not Fu Shiyi, who else could it be?
He is a prince and does not live in the palace, why did he leave Beijing?
Speaking of which, Mei Ru is not very happy to see this Eleventh Highness, because of the matter of the four drawers of buns, there are still people in the capital who tie the two of them together and say it......
Thinking of this, Mei Ru still frowned.
The maid outside set up a soft pier and helped Meng Yunlan get out of the car first.
Seeing Meng Yunlan, Fu Zhao was stunned: "Master Meng, will Miss Meng and Mrs. Meng go together?" β
Since Meng Yunlan returned to the screen, she had a much worse impression of this vexatious Eleventh Highness, she pursed her lips, and only turned around and greeted: "Come down quickly." β
Mei Ru couldn't dodge, so she could only lean down.
The curtain was lifted, it was a faint twilight outside, the sky was a little dark, Mei Ru raised her eyes and looked around, her body was stagnant-
There was a man by the window on the second floor of the inn, and he stood there with his hands in his hands, his eyes lowered.
The four eyes are far away from each other.
Even if it is far away, Mei Ru knows that Fu Zheng's eyes are pitch black, as if they are dotted with ink, which can burn into people's hearts. When he wasn't smiling, those good-looking eyes were particularly cold, cold like a thousand-year-old cold pool, which made people feel cold all over his body. But this time, his eyes were slightly crooked.
A chuckle for unknown reasons can still make people cold.
Mei Ru's body stiffened.
She quickly looked away, but still didn't see the person, and stepped on the soft pier to get out of the car.
Fu Zhao saw her and said happily: "Mei San, why are you here?" β
Mei Ru frowned and asked coldly, "Your Highness, why are you here?" β
Fu Zhao said proudly: "I won't sue you." β
Mei Ru: "......"
She really didn't want to deal with this person anymore, Mei Ru turned her head and only said to Meng Yunlan: "Yunlan, let's go in." The backyard room has been cleaned up, and Xiao Qiaoshi has already entered the room with her pile of treasures.
Meng An said goodbye to Fu Zhao in the back, Mei Ru walked in front with Meng Yunlan in her arms, and when she was about to reach the stairwell, she was uncomfortably stunned, still feeling cold.
She tilted her head to look overβ
I saw that Fu Zheng had come down.
He stood there, wearing a dark robe with wide sleeves and a collared robe, with a jade belt around his waist, and in the drowsy twilight, his lips were red and his teeth were white, and his shoulders were broad and his waist narrow.
Mei Ru lowered her head.
Meng Yunlan had also seen Fu Zheng, so she was stunned for a moment, and quickly paused.
Meng An next to him had already stepped forward to salute: "Your Highness." β
Fu Zheng bowed his head slightly and said: "This king was drinking tea on it before, and he heard your voice, so come down and take a look." β
Meng An had already heard Fu Zhao mention that they were going to the Northwest Camp. But Fu Zhao didn't say what they were going to do, and Meng An guessed that it had something to do with his father. Thinking that he could only be sent to Baoding, he really didn't worry about Xiao Qiao's and his two younger sisters, so he pointed to Mei Ru and Meng Yunlan next to him and introduced: "Your Highness, this is my sister and cousin, and I am also going to the Northwest Road, and I hope Your Highness will take care of you all the way." β
Fu Zheng turned his head to look at the two of them.
Meng Yunlan lowered her head and saluted: "I've seen Your Highness." β
Fu Zheng didn't speak, just stood there quietly, as if waiting for something.
His gaze was slightly dull, and when he brushed over, he unnaturally revealed a little oppression.
Mei Ru twisted her eyebrows, her body stiffened, and she said slightly: "I have seen Your Highness." β
Fu Zheng only faintly "um" at this time, and replied: "Three girls." β
Yesterday, Mei Ru had nowhere to hide, so she pretended not to hear or know, she pretended to be stupid, and Fu Zheng knew everything.
So, today he is forcing her!
