Chapter 059: Cat on Horseback
But no matter how loudly he shouted, all he could respond to was a slip of dust kicked up by the horse's hooves......
Second Master Lian let out a dejected "belch", slowly retracted the arm that was stretched out, looked up at the sky and sighed long.
The carriage went fast, and after a while, it was far away from the Lianjia mansion and headed for the exit of Pingkangfang.
Along the way, the carriages and horses were faintly rumbling and rattling.
Ruosheng sat in the carriage, opened the bag of candied plums that her father had stuffed into her, and stretched out her fingers to pick out the grains from it and eat them. As soon as you enter the mouth, the sweet and sour aroma ignites on the tip of the tongue like a flame, and it becomes a fire, which goes straight into the throat and deep into the heart and lungs. The worries that gradually came to her mind because of her conversation with the fourth uncle immediately dissipated.
Out of Pingkangfang, the vision is getting wider and wider.
Ruosheng leaned quietly and looked out the window, but saw the sun shining through the cumulus clouds, falling from the blue sky, and falling on the trees not far away, illuminating the big trees more and more verdant. She couldn't help but think that when she came back from Pingzhou, it would be summer.
Every year in April, everyone begins to change into tulle clothes in twos and threes.
Looking at the climate this year, I am afraid that it will be even hotter than usual. It would be great if we could find the finchman before the end of the summer.
She thought about it, and heard Hu Qiuniang whispering to the green banana on the side, talking about the weather, customs, famous florists, and so on. Because she decided to go to Pingzhou in person, these things about Pingzhou were immediately sorted out and written on paper by the people below and sent over quickly.
Ruosheng took a closer look. However, the memory is not very good, and this will forget about it again.
It's Hu Qiuniang and Green Banana, I don't know if they were busy reciting it last night, but now no matter what they mention, they can remember it immediately.
Ruosheng listened to the two casually, his fingers lightly poked the fan, and he wanted to withdraw his gaze from the window. At that moment, however, she heard the sound of galloping horses' hooves. The group of them was not walking slowly, but the sound of running in her ears at this moment was far more than them.
Her gaze, which was about to retract, stalled. Instead, the face was pressed closer to the window. Look down the avenue behind the carriage.
The sound of the horseshoe palm hitting the ground became clearer and louder, and the "da-da-da" lingered in her ears.
Ruosheng looked at it fixedly, and saw a few horses flying past their line, and they really deserved to be galloping.
She was stunned. Then a familiar figure was spotted on the horse that had been beaten. Just now when the brown-haired steed swept past the carriage. She saw only half of the face of the man on the horse. At the moment, she could only look at her back from afar, but she just recognized it - it was Su Yu!
The daylight is warm and dazzling. The young man on horseback was also as if he was bathed in golden light, dazzling beyond measure.
He is, what to do?
Further on, the road leads to the city gate without looking back.
"Whose horse is running so fast?" The sound of horses' hooves was loud just now, and Hu Qiuniang also heard it, and said undoubtedly.
Ruosheng came back to his senses, closed his eyes and closed the window, "Maybe there is something important to do." After that, she opened her eyes, her eyes were clear, and she instructed Hu Qiuniang: "Let the people outside hurry up, if you can't stand it, I will shout to stop, if I don't shout, I won't stop." ”
Hu Qiuniang followed her for a few days, and knew that she was a person who said nothing, and she didn't say anything when she heard it, so she immediately went down and ordered the people who accompanied her.
However, even if the Lian family and his party quickened their pace, by the time they caught up, the few horses that had just passed them had already disappeared.
Because he was pestered by the criminal department Shangshu and said something for a while, the departure time was delayed, and Su Yu ordered the entourage before leaving, before going to the next resting place, just hurry up and rush forward. In theory, he is a senior official who was ordered to investigate the case, even if he walked slowly on the road and walked leisurely, there was no way on the Pingzhou side. So as soon as he spoke, the officials in his colleagues were a little unhappy. Who knew that Su Yuding's resting place was far away from the capital, and it would take at least six hours to ride a horse!
Running like this against the sun, you are not even allowed to stutter, which one can stand it?
But Su Yu nodded his head, his face did not change, and he walked all the way, and no one in his companions dared to complain.
Only...... There was a bold man who began to mumble and complain uncontrollably as soon as he stepped out of the city gate.
It first poked its head out of the large bag hanging next to the horse's belly, and then poked out a claw, stretching out to reach Su Yu's trouser leg.
But the horse galloped wildly, bumping and bumping, and the large pocket that clinged to the horse's body rose and fell up and down left and right with its movements.
The ingots nest in it, like a boat on the sea with strong winds and waves, "whooshing" a wave of waves, it was turned up to roll its eyes, open its mouth "meow" and scream. This vain attempt to reach the master's trousers was also not allowed to do it for half a day, and even the paws were tired, and they did not touch him.
It shouted, but after a long time, the man who was lying on the horse's back with the reins still did not hear it, and did not even glance at it out of the corner of his eye.
That's not going to work!
It crawled out of the bag, crawling and crawling, and swaying under it, and slapped its paw on the horse.
The horse neighed and shook itself so vigorously that it nearly threw it off.
Yuan Bao was so frightened that he didn't dare to move for a long time, and it took a long time to climb up cautiously, and finally his front paws stretched long, and finally hooked a corner of the master's clothes, and it "meowed" and screamed. Then, in an instant, a hand fell from the sky, and pressed it into the bag again, stuffing it tightly like a bag.
"Meow! Meow! Meow meow! Yuan Bao was angry and struggled desperately, but in the end he couldn't resist the master's claws, and he was afraid of falling off the horse, so he had to go back back aggrieved.
With nothing to do, it can only lick its paws.
But after licking the front paws, I want to lick the hind paws...... What about the hind paws? In the bag!
Yuan Bao was in a hurry, trying to lift his hind paws in front of him, but it wasn't until Su Yu and his party stopped at their horses. It didn't work out either......
Moreover, it hasn't eaten dried fish for a day!
So when Su Yu released it from it, it had already turned into a gas sound of "meow", and he didn't have the heart to deal with him anymore.
Sanqi on the side came over: "Fifth master, look at it like this, even if you leave it and leave it at home, it is really hungry, and it will definitely look for food by itself, and it will not be hungry." ”
"If you want to follow, let it follow." Su Yu glanced down at it and said expressionlessly.
"Meow woo......" Yuan Bao called softly. Looking up at his master's face. Shivering in the cold wind of the night.
Su Yu's trip was a tolerance, and the distance was tight, he had no intention of bringing ingots, so he had a secret meeting with Gonggong Chen that night. began to prepare for ingots. He was going to take it to his sister-in-law first. Let my sister-in-law take care of her for a few days. But who knew that the front foot only sent it away, and its back foot could slip back to the small bamboo forest on its own; He sent it to He Xian again, and asked He Xian to help him watch it for a few days. But Yuan Bao Bacheng is not in agreement with He Xian's eight characters, and he can't keep it, so Su Yu has no choice but to leave it in his yard, and there is a mother-in-law to take care of it.
As for the ingots, naturally I don't know his thoughts, I saw that he sent himself away twice and then didn't move, so he thought that he was peaceful, eating and drinking every day, eating and drinking everywhere, hooking up with other cats in his spare time, and the days were so happy.
As a result, in the blink of an eye, it was very happy and sad.
When Su Yu got the order, he immediately ordered Sanqi to take out the bags he had prepared earlier and prepare to go out.
It stared at the pile of baggage and thought about it for a long time, and finally found out that he was preparing to leave without taking himself, and he didn't want to do it at the moment, and he didn't even eat the dried fish for all kinds of coquettish rolling.
Everyone was surprised to find that it had not eaten anything for most of the day.
Sanqi glared at it with his burden: "Can't follow!" ”
Yuan Bao bared his teeth: "Meow! ”
A momentum that if you don't give it, you will starve to death and pull it down.
Su Yu changed his clothes and went out to see this scene, so he asked Sanqi to prepare a big cloth bag and stuff it into it as a bag.
Yuan Bao was overjoyed at first, squinting his eyes and shaking his tail, very happy. But who expected that this was really out of the door, and what was waiting for it was a horseback riding meow......
Fortunately, the master is still humane, he carries a small dried fish with him, and after resting, he squats there to feed it. ate one, two, or three, and was not full yet, but was taken over by Sanqi, "I don't let you follow, now you know the hardships, right?" ”
The ingots chewed and ate, and they didn't look at him.
Sanqi laughed, lowered his voice and threatened it: "Have you seen the fifth master's face?" Maybe Ming'er will throw half a ...... if he thinks you're troublesome" Before he finished speaking, he suddenly looked cold, and then covered his nose and retreated straight back, pointing at Yuanbao and saying, "What a stinky fart!" ”
"Meow ......" Yuan Bao finally glanced at him and let out a long meow.
Sanqi covered his nose and retreated, bumped into a person with a "bang", hurriedly looked back, saw that it was an official errand of his peers, and hurriedly bowed down to apologize.
The official smiled and pulled Sanqi aside, and whispered, "Little brother, did you hear what the adults just said?" ”
Sanqi was stunned: "The matter of continuing to rush after eating?" ”
"That's it!" The official in the blue cloth shirt smiled, "Little brother, you said, it's so dark this day, you can't see your five fingers, what kind of way to go, not to mention that you have already rushed a lot today, how can you just hit the tip and not stay overnight?" Why don't you just sleep for one night? ”
Sanqi listened and nodded.
The official asked him to talk to Su Yu and ask for a favor.
Sanqi refused to do so, but only said that they would say it themselves, and several officials glanced at each other, and smiled bitterly and did not dare to mention it to Su Yu.
It's Sanqi, after feeding the ingots, he still couldn't help but ask Su Yu: "Fifth master, we have all arrived at this realm, do you want to rest for a night and wait for dawn before leaving?" ”
Su Yu watched the stars at night, didn't look at him, and only said coldly: "The murderer only killed one person in half a month at the beginning, and after committing two murders, he became a murderer every seven days, and then committed two more murders, and changed to kill one person in only three days, and went too late, who knows how many more people will be killed?" (To be continued......)
