351: Chang'an Lane

A large group of guards were invited to the side hall, only the leader sitting, and the rest stood in two columns, all of them still wearing hoods, burly and straight, and their awe-inspiring aura made people dare not look at them.

Seeing this, the porter quietly wiped a cold sweat, only glad that this is the Jin State Mansion, and the side hall for hospitality is also large enough, otherwise, I am afraid that it will not be able to accommodate these people at all......

But Rao is like this, and the atmosphere in the hall is still very depressing.

There were clearly more than 100 people standing, but apart from the sound of breathing, the noise next to them could not be heard at all.

……

Jin Qingyun, who had been informed, was already on his way to and from the side hall at this moment.

Behind him was Jin Yuming.

The father and son were still discussing the news that the servants in the Qingbo Pavilion said that Jiang Ying had gone to another place, but when they were worried about this, they heard what the next person from the front yard said...... A team of neatly dressed Xiling people came to the house, claiming to be a close attendant of the Xiling royal family, saying that Princess Xundongzhu was here!

The close attendants of the Xiling royal family came to the capital?

Why have they never received a message before?

Even the local state capitals did not report it!

Could it be that this group of people actually came to the capital from the sky?

No way.

Jin Qingyun was suspicious in his heart, but he doubted the accuracy of the news sent by the porter.

He had always believed only in his own careful speculation.

"Father...... If it's really someone sent by King Xiling, then how do we reply to them? Jin Yuming looked like he was in a mess, which made Jin Qingyun, who was secretly analyzing the reason for the matter, feel angry.

"Princess Dongzhu asked to go to the northwest to find the prince herself. It's not that we have hidden it, and it is upright! What are you afraid of? ”

"What my father said is ......" Jin Yuming showed a slight expression, which made Jin Qingyun shake his head for a while.

Sooner or later, he was going to be pissed off by this stupid son......

Or blame him for always putting his mind on the eldest son before, this second son has been raised by his wife, and when he noticed Jin Yuming, he had been raised by his wife to look like a straw bale that couldn't be put on the table, but whenever he encountered a little unexpected thing, he would be the first to mess up, like a headless fly, and he didn't even know where to fly!

Rao was the one who spent so many years teaching himself. But he couldn't get this crooked son back......

Leave aside these inner helplessnesses. When Jin Qingyun came to the side hall and saw the neat and neat guards standing in the two columns, with strange and eye-catching blue eyes, he couldn't help but beat wildly between his eyebrows.

It turned out to be really Xiling's close attendant......

How did such a huge team of 100 people avoid his eyes and ears, whether bright or dark, in various places. Came to this capital?!

Jin Qingyun suddenly felt an unprecedented sense of unease in his heart.

It's like a sharp weapon that has been held tightly in your hand all the time. It was slowly pulled out by an invisible black hand. And he didn't even know anything before that!

It continued in an instant, and Jin Qingyun's palms were soaked with cold sweat.

Jin Yuming didn't seem to know why his father, who had always been as calm as Mount Tai collapsed at the top and did not change his expression, turned white in an instant. He whispered: "Father, do you want to tell them the truth about Princess Dongzhu's trip to the Northwest Land?" ”

Jin Qing Yunqiang settled his mind, his palms were clenched into fists, but his tightly stiff face relaxed a little, and he said, "I want to tell you the truth", and walked into the hall.

Whether the county guards in various places were blind and let this group of Xiling people come and go at will and turn a blind eye, he had to investigate it afterwards, but the most important thing at the moment is to 'entertain' this group of people.

In any case, King Xiling is his biggest 'ally' in the future.

……

The sky was bright, a loud rooster crow sounded one after another, and in the suburbs of the county, the morning shops on both sides of the main street and the doors of the restaurant inns were opened one after another.

Jujiao County is already two hundred miles away from Liancheng, and Jiang Ying and the Hua family's caravan settled here yesterday afternoon to rest.

"I asked Ah Ju to go downstairs and book a table early, and I will send it directly to the room later, if you feel sleepy, you can sleep for a while, I'll go out and walk around first, and come back before noon." Hua Changjing combed her hair in the mirror, tied it into a braid and coiled it on the top of her head, and picked up a gray squirrel felt hat to cover it firmly.

Jiang Ying, who had just woken up, turned around in a daze and faced the outside of the bed, looking at Hua Changjing, who was facing her back to tidying up her clothes, and responded a little dazed.

In the past few days, she has been resting quietly in the same room as Hua Chang, and when Jiang Ying opened her eyes early yesterday morning, she saw a pretty white-faced Langjun standing in front of the bed at first glance, which almost scared her soul.

Immediately sat up from the bed, wrapped the quilt tightly, and looked defensive-

I thought there was a man in the room sometime!

Then I heard the people in front of me leaning forward and laughing for a while, and then I came to my senses.

It turned out that Hua Changjing was dressed as a man.

In the next two days, Hua Changjing went in and out in the image of men's clothes, and the people in the caravan seemed to be surprised, and without command, they changed the word "girl" to "childe" very cooperatively.

Jiang Ying also learned at this time that Hua Changjing, in order to make it easier to walk, mostly looks like a man outside, especially when she goes to a place, she has to patrol the shops of her peers as a 'commercial spy', and she is even more cautious in her attire - not only men's hair, but also beards, thick eyebrows, and I don't know what paste to use, wipe it on the earlobe, even the ear holes can be covered tightly, and the whole body can't find the slightest flaw.

It's no wonder that Jiang Ying was frightened by her on the first day.

"I'm not sleeping anymore." Jiang Ying sat up, brushed the hair that was scattered on her forehead behind her ears, and asked, "Are we going to leave in the afternoon?" ”

"There's no hurry, it's not too late to hit the road tomorrow morning."

Jiang Ying couldn't help but shake her head when she heard this and said, "Sister Hua, I also traveled a long way before. My body has always been good, so you don't have to slow down your trip for me. ”

Hua Changjing seemed to be afraid that she would not be able to withstand the bumps of the carriage too often, and the journey in the past few days had been extremely slow, and she had to rest every time she arrived.

"Uh......" Hua Chang was stunned for a moment, and then said: "No, it's just that there happen to be a few fledgling silk and satin Zhuangzi in the place where these two sunsets ...... place."

Jiang Ying opened her mouth slightly.

Seeing this, Hua Changjing said again: "Don't worry, after this sentence, there is nothing to stay in the suburbs." The rest of the road was easy. ”

I don't know why. The atmosphere is still a little awkward.

Jiang Ying let out an "oh" and nodded to indicate that she knew.

Her biggest shortcoming is that she loves to be amorous......

After Hua Changjing left the inn, Jiang Ying washed up and used a light breakfast. I listened to Ah Ju talk about this sentence in the suburbs in the room.

Ah Ju is Hua Changjing's maid. Although Miss Hua has always been independent. But no matter how she is still a woman, she still has to have someone to take care of when she goes out, for fear of trouble. I don't want to bring more, and there is only one Aju by my side for so many years.

Ah Ju is not an ordinary little girl.

For so many years, she has followed Hua Changjing to the north and south, and she is well-informed, and she still has a faint 'rough' energy.

In every gesture, it is not what a little girl should be, and it does not match the meaning of 'people are as light as chrysanthemums' in her name.

For example, when she came in just now, Jiang Ying told her to bring the door, but this girl didn't even bother to stretch out her hand after she got down, and kicked out directly, and a door closed with a "bang", and it was estimated that the guests on the entire two-story building were awakened by the loud sound.

Jiang Ying was stunned, but also expressed understanding.

After all, it's been in a bunch of men for so many years......

It's a little rougher, but fortunately, the work is neat, the speech is refreshing enough, and it is a ready-made place chronicle, where she walks, she can easily pull out a lot of delicious and fun places.

Hua Changjing couldn't come back until noon, and the weather outside was good, Jiang Ying didn't want to stay in the inn all morning and spend the past in vain, so she asked Ah Ju about this sentence in the suburbs.

"Miss Jiang, the most interesting thing in this suburban county is Keju field! It's crowded and lively, and now it's spring, so it's perfect to kick a kemari on the green grass! Ah Ju's eyes lit up, and he kicked out as he spoke, although his strength was sufficient, his posture made it clear that he was a layman.

At the end, he added: "But women are not allowed to enter the Keju field, I usually have to dress up as a man with my girl, if Miss Jiang wants to go over to have fun, I will find you a set of men's clothes to come over?" ”

Jiang Ying heard this, and quickly shook her head and said no.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ In terms of sports, let's not talk about it for the time being, right? ”

She's a lazy person.

"What does the girl want to know?" Ah Ju learned smartly this time, and asked in detail.

Jiang Ying no longer beat around the bush, and said calmly: "It's delicious." ”

Ah Ju was stunned for a moment, then slapped the table and said, "Girl, you said it earlier!" ”

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and tugged Jiang Ying's little arm, "I'll take you to Chang'an Lane!" ”

Jiang Ying was dragged up by her violently, stumbled on her feet and asked, "...... What is Chang'an Lane? ”

……

Chang'an Lane is a well-known food street in the suburbs of the county.

From the end of the alley to the end of the alley, there is not a single shop, there are some simple sheds set up of small stalls, and even many are too lazy to build sheds, there are only one or two long tables in front of the stalls, and they don't know each other, and the guests don't dislike each other, squeezing together, bowing their heads to drink soup, chatting and laughing, urging the boss "why haven't my buns been on yet", all kinds of voices are intertwined, and the aroma of rice on each stall, the hot white steam, the lively is not like talking.

"There are those who sell breakfast, those who sell snacks and pastries, noodles and porridge, and fried fruits...... In short, you can eat whatever you want! Ah Ju explained to Jiang Ying with high interest, but suddenly said with some regret: "It's a pity that the girl just used it early in the inn...... I knew that the girl liked to eat so much, so I simply brought her here at first......"

I knew that the girl liked to eat so much......

Why is this so strange?

In the midst of the noise, Jiang Ying comforted: "It's okay, I just haven't eaten enough." ”

Looking at his expression, it doesn't look like he's lying.

The breakfast in the inn is nothing more than the same simple, no tricks, she has been tired of eating in the past few days, and she doesn't want to trouble Ah Ju to go out to buy it for her, and now that she has come to Chang'an Lane, I don't know if it's really hungry or psychological, and I feel hungry in my stomach......

"Let's go over there and seeβ€”"

Now the situation has become Jiang Ying pulling Ah Ju around, in the face of all kinds of food, her sense of smell is always surprisingly sensitive, just by sniffing, you can immediately distinguish the two Yangchun noodles of the same material, which one tastes better.

Eventually, the two sat down at a stall selling offal soup.

I ordered two bowls of beef offal soup and a few steamed buns.

Drinking the hot, freshly sprayed beef offal soup, and taking a bite of the steamed bun with the local special spicy sauce beans, the two little girls ate it called a happy heart.

β€œβ€¦β€¦ It's even better than the one my girl brought me to eat last time! Ah Ju was inhaled by the spicy sauce beans, but she still couldn't help but give a thumbs up.

Jiang Ying sent a mouthful of fresh soup sprinkled with coriander, and nodded and said, "When Sister Hua comes back, I'll go over again in the evening and let her taste it tooβ€”β€”"

"Hmm!"

The two of them were unusually involved in eating, and because of the crowd around them, they didn't notice a couple arguing on the street behind them, and the battle situation had risen to the point where they wanted to roll up their sleeves and do it.

"You still have a face thief shouting to catch a thief! Don't think I don't know what the hell is going on between you and the old king next door! If it weren't for the fact that the child was still young, I would have swept you out of the house! ”

The man should have eaten wine, and in front of so many people, he didn't even care about his own face, and shouted loudly.

Annoyed, the young woman with a blue floral headscarf on her head snatched a large iron spoon with a long handle from the stall behind her and smashed it at the man with hatred.

The man groaned and burst into a rough sentence, grabbed a porcelain bowl and fired back.

"Bang dang!"

"Smack!"

"What are you doing? If you want to hit somewhere else, what are you going to do with my things! Why don't you smash yourselves! The proprietress of the offal soup was not happy, and went forward to stop it with a black face.

If it's an ordinary passer-by, it's okay, but the couple is selling bean curd next door, and the two families have been 'deeply resentful' for several years, and now they have seized the opportunity, and it is natural that they will explode.

"Big bull! Smash their house for me! Seeing that the proprietress of the offal soup couldn't hold the sick couple, she simply called her own plan to smash the stall selling Douhuaer's house.

There was a cacophony of noises, and the scene became very chaotic.

A tea egg from nowhere flew through the air and smashed into the soup bowl in front of Jiang Ying accurately, and the sound of entering the water suddenly started, splashing a layer of soup, Jiang Ying's eyes closed, and the expected hot sensation appeared...... (To be continued......)
