CHAPTER XXV
But even if His Majesty the Emperor specially opened a private message channel, not to go to the post station, day and night, it would take three or four days for Cai Wei to travel on the way back.
And since Shen Ruyu received the letter, she waited for a few days for Song Jin's people to send the information to her, and then spent a few days sorting out the information, and then handed over the information and reply to Cai Wei, it had taken at least six or seven days in the middle, Cai Wei thought, the majesty in the palace was probably about to look forward to it, and maybe she would be angry with her, so she couldn't help but be anxious in her heart, and urged the horses for several □.
When she was halfway there, she saw a familiar figure galloping from the opposite side—this should be the second maid to leave the palace—and she must have brought with her the second private message from the Emperor's Majesty.
For the impatient behavior of His Majesty the Emperor, Cai Wei found that she was not surprised at all.
Cai Wei recognized this maid, she entered the palace much later than Cai Wei, and her name was Primrose.
Primrose is still young, because she recognized a good sister early, she has never suffered anything in the palace, her personality is quite flamboyant and pampered, and she can mix a few feet on any good errand, such as this time.
Although it is quite tiring to travel long distances and deliver private messages day and night, it is a good opportunity to show your face in front of the emperor and the emperor's sweetheart. Ruyu Niangzi is also known for being gentle and amiable, kind and soft-hearted, if she can brush up her good feelings, even if she casually mentions a few words in front of Her Majesty in the future, her future can be unlimited.
However, Cai Wei and Primrose recognize the good sister Cai He is the same generation, although they have not yet reached the Cheng dù who tears their faces, they still have some difficulties with each other, so they are not familiar with Primrose.
But in any case, they knew each other after all, so they each stopped their □ horses and smiled politely at each other.
Originally, with their friendship, it was just a matter of laughing, Cai Wei was anxious and was about to get back on the road, but Primrose asked Cai Wei: "Did my sister get a reply and rush back to Beijing?" ”
has grown up in the palace since he was a child, who doesn't have a few eyes? Although Cai Wei was irritable in her heart, and because of her question, she suddenly became a little vigilant, but she smiled inconspicuously on her face, and just responded as concisely as possible: "Yes." ”
Primrose didn't mind, her young face was full of pure and innocent smiles, her round eyes were wide open, and she continued with an innocent expression: "Not long after my sister left, Her Majesty began to ask when my sister would come back!" This trip my sister has been gone for a long time. ”
“…… Oh, yes. However, although Cai Wei was poked at the place that she was most worried about, but the momentum must not be lost, Cai Wei smiled calmly, and pulled out the official file about Shen Ruyu that was sealed in silk from her arms, "Ruyu Niangzi has a lot of things to write to Her Majesty, so it was delayed for a short time, but this intention, presumably if Your Majesty knows it, she will be very happy." ”
The thickness of the black data file that encompassed the entire Hengshan County officials obviously suppressed Primrose fiercely, and her eyes widened, and her eyes unconsciously showed a look of jealousy and envy.
The so-called loser does not lose the battle, seeing that the primrose has been suppressed, Cai Wei will accept it when she sees that it is good, put the file back away, and change the topic without wanting to talk more, "Speaking of which, when I left, Ruyu Niangzi seemed to be ready to leave for Julu County, and I don't know if my sister can catch up today, so let's hurry up, so as not to delay the important matter of His Majesty." ”
Primrose's gaze lingered on her chest where she was holding the files, and after a long while, she looked away, "...... My sister said the same, so my sister won't delay my sister! ”
She seemed to be sure from Cai Wei's body that Shen Ruyu's reply must be thick and numerous, which would definitely make Her Majesty feel very happy, so that these messengers could get a lot of benefits, and her eyes suddenly became more eager.
It's a good errand.
Thinking so, Primrose couldn't wait to start again.
Seeing her riding away, Cai Wei also turned around and was about to urge the horse, but she turned around and looked at the figure of the primrose gradually moving away with some uneasiness.
Cai Wei is also young and unwilling to keep to herself, the kind of ambition in Primrose's eyes that is eager to try and ready to try her skills, she naturally sees it very clearly, but Cai Wei has already understood that the most important thing in doing things in the palace is to keep to herself, follow the rules and follow the order, and never make your own opinions, be smart, and make additional decisions self-righteously.
Primrose is a clever girl, she has a flexible brain, very clever, and has done several things for the palace maid, just because of her ingenuity, she has been pampered, and she is considered a sister by Caihe, and since then she has gained a firm foothold in the palace, and it can be said that she is on a steady footing.
This is the ability she has relied on to get to this point, and for this reason she looks down on those who are decent, thinking that they are too stupid and not flexible at all. She felt that she had found a shortcut, a shortcut that only a smart person could think of—she decided to postpone the letter in her hand for a few days and send it to Shen Ruyu.
She obviously mistakenly deduced from the silk dossier that Shen Ruyu attached great importance to the emperor, and spontaneously comprehended the ancient version of the "hunger marketing" strategy.
Majesty doesn't understand what love is all about.
Primrose thought so.
Chasing too tightly and can't wait, it will make the Shen family lady less and less careful, and if she hangs the other party's appetite a little, the other party will know that she is nervous, and she will hurriedly come over in a panic.
Sister Caihe, and that Caiwei, they are too conformist and lifeless, they have long lost their sharpness in the palace, but in this world, some things, as long as they take a little risk, they may be able to get a much greater reward!
Majesty cares very much about the letters of the Shen family's lady, but what Her Majesty wants the most, in the final analysis, is not the relationship with the Shen family's lady can be enhanced?
If she can help His Majesty the Emperor win the heart of the Shen family's lady, wouldn't the credit be much greater than simply sending a letter?
Sister Caihe always taught her to seize the opportunity and be flexible, isn't this an opportunity?!
Thinking so, Primrose couldn't help but smile on her face, as if she had seen the future where she was about to reach the pinnacle of her life.
On the other hand, although Shen Ruyu has tried her best to keep a low profile, she has not made her whereabouts a top secret after all, and who can climb to the official position of a county guard, who is not enough brains?
When Shen Ruyu lived in the Fulai Inn to sort out the information, her whereabouts were inevitably detected by local officials, which made her in Hengshan County quiet for most of the days, but in the end she still did not hide from a farewell banquet.
The farewell banquet was arranged on the painting boat that Shen Ruyu and the others saw at the ferry when they came to Hengshan County, and I don't know who stipulated it.
In short, it is necessary to invite tricks to entertain, as if there is no trick and no joy.
Looking at a group of women in their forties and fifties, and a group of teenagers eyebrows, whether they were men or women, Shen Ruyu couldn't understand their thoughts and logic of treating this as a kind of romantic affair.
She was a little uncomfortable and tried to avoid falling her eyes on them, but fortunately, they also seemed to be afraid that Shen Ruyu was a woman who was remembered by His Majesty the Emperor, and finally did not do anything that everyone was assigned to a handsome young man to snuggle up to her, but just let those tricks dance and play music in the hall.
Of course, there was no ambiguous contact at the banquet, but during the interval between music and dancing, I gave a wink and agreed to meet for a private meeting later, and no one cared.
Shen Ruyu sat there, embarrassed that she was sitting near the railing for a person who was so afraid of water, and would rather look at the river than turn her head to look at the lively singing and dancing in the hall.
Fortunately, she smiled and made a few perfunctory poems to suit the occasion, got a few words of praise, and used words such as looking at the scenery and about to leave to reply to all the officials' temptations, whether overt or dark, Shen Ruyu was finally liberated from the banquet.
Fortunately, the world of female honorifies the world from time to time to toast.
When Shen Ruyu was a little tired and sat in the sedan chair arranged by the post station, she couldn't help but think so.
Speaking of which, as a deposed envoy, in addition to corruption and tax evasion in the next official letter, she will mention to Her Majesty about the prohibition of prostitution by officials, right?
Ever since she knew that she would have to reply to the letters sent by Her Majesty from time to time, Shen Ruyu would think about what to write in the next letter whenever she had free time.
They added many specialties to their luggage, such as jujube wine from Yunshuifang, pastries from Xingfuzhai, and other large items, such as the fabrics and picture scrolls that Shen Ruyu bought, she asked Bai Sa to transfer them to Jingshi.
…… Anyway, he collected the accounts all the way and finally went to Jingshi.
And in addition to the specialty, they also harvested a Kong Qingyang.
Bai Sa didn't look happy, but it seemed that he could only sigh helplessly and buy her a spear.
Shen Ruyu was actually quite worried that when she was about to leave, Bai Sa stuffed her with a silver ticket, but fortunately, the actual ruler of the Bai family was exquisite, and what he gave to Shen Ruyu was a fine iron sword, Wen Ming was given a jasper flute, Mingxi was given a mutton fat hosta, and Wang Zijun was given a silver silk whisk.
Shen Ruyu felt that it was really good that he could spend so much effort for Kong Qingyang.
Only sent Kong Qingyang but excitedly only cared about talking to Wang Zijun, as if he didn't notice the sadness of parting with Bai Sa at all.
Well...... Wax him.
Compared with the waterway, Shen Ruyu is much more comfortable on the land route, but although she will not be seasick and nauseous, the official sedan chair arranged by the post station is still not as comfortable as the sedan chair of the Shen family and the Cui family, and it is also very uncomfortable to be stuffy in the sedan chair all day long.
When you are tired of riding, you go back to the sedan chair, and when you are bored, you come out to ride a horse, combining work and rest, and you will never get tired of it.
Every time she was on a horse, Mingxi would poke her head out of the sedan chair, looking quite envious and yearning, Shen Ruyu was bored anyway, so she taught him to ride a horse.
Ming Xi was still small now, and when he was trembling and pulling the reins, Shen Ruyu helped him pull the reins of the horse and led him forward.
Sometimes Shen Ruyu walked and walked, and suddenly felt like a vendor who rode a horse in a tourist attraction in the future and charged ten yuan, and then he couldn't help laughing.
It's just that Shen Ruyu doesn't like it very much, when she plays with Mingxi, the servants still have to take care of their speed, and they can't go beyond it to follow them, which is simply tiring. She asked them to leave her alone, just let her walk slowly behind with Mingxi, but there was such a road in front of her, and it was impossible to get separated.
But Shen Ruyu never expected that although she did not get separated...... But...... She was actually snatched away!
Although Hengshan County, as the closest place to Jingshi, has good public security, there are so many states and counties under Hengshan County, and the closer it is to Julu County, the farther away it is from Jingshi. No one expected that near the official road, there was actually a group of bandits.
It seems that because it is a little far away from the large army in front, it is regarded as a lone by the bandits lurking in the mountains...... Traveler?
But it's understandable that girls and teenagers who are alone together may be mistaken for their husbands.
In short, a group of women dressed in tatters and with dirty complexions suddenly jumped out of the grass and surrounded Shen Ruyu and Mingxi.
