Cui Yongzhong was very close to everyone, and he recognized Meng Zelang at a glance, and then saw Yang Junyao.

He knew how much this was likely to be the uncle of the Cui family, no wonder this person was extra respectful when he saw the salute just now.

Cui Yongzhong put on the shelf of his elders, patted Yang Junyao's shoulder with a warm smile, and knew in his heart that what Qi Xuanhui said was true, not to ease his heart, so he said nonsense casually.

He nodded, greatly relieved, but he still couldn't help but say a wordy admonition, "Even if these children are all strong in martial arts, the number of them is too small, and the Jiangnan side is not very peaceful, the water bandits in the river are in chaos, and there are robbers in the mountains, even in the city."

"Hey, let's not talk about that now, anyway, Childe, you bring more people by your side, it's better to be safer, we'd rather have a flamboyant reputation than let people suffer."

"Yo, this isn't a complete fool." Qi Xuanhui felt that Cui Yongzhong's unexpected move today brought him a few different feelings.

It turns out that this person is really not pedantic and rigid, but he knows how to deal with things flexibly and flexibly.

He couldn't help but thank him solemnly: "I have written down everything Uncle Shi said, thank you for the two uncles for their concern." ”

"Well, the food over there has been prepared, let's hurry up and go over to eat, and we can hurry when the meal is over."

Because of their large number of people, many horses, and idle little thieves did not dare to provoke, and a large number of robbers rarely robbed on the way to Hongruo Temple, so on the return trip to Qi Xuanhui, they chose a spacious grassland to camp and cook.

Cui Wanqing and Cao Tang sisters. I can also take advantage of this kung fu to get out of the carriage to stretch my legs, and it is convenient and convenient to go to the forest accompanied by the maid and my mother.

Cao Tang listened to Cui Wanqing's words to persuade her, and she probably didn't think much about the subtle relationship between casualness and rules, and even between herself and her father.

She tugged at the hem of her skirt with one hand. One hand holds the jadeite. Following behind Cui Wanqing, he carefully avoided the hard objects on the ground and moved towards the woods, the tent that had just been erected.

Cui Wanqing saw that the woods here were full of thorns. for fear of scratching Cao Tang's skirt. Or it hurts the skin. So I turned around from time to time and told Cao Tang to be careful when walking.

It's just a seemingly casual move, but it shows deep concern. Cao Tang was not lightly moved, "This is what Cousin Qing just said, look, the road is not easy to walk, she still can't rest assured of me." ”

"When she turns her head to look at me, she can't look at the road under her feet, but she still looks back frequently"

If you don't look closely at some subtle subtleties and don't pay attention to them, you won't be able to see the deep meaning of them.

It was precisely because of Cui Wanqing's guidance to Cao Tang in the carriage that Cao Tang began to pay attention to these subsections, which he would never pay attention to before.

When the two of them finished solving the problem and came out of the tent, Cao Tang took two steps forward, grabbed Cui Wanqing's next door, and said with a smile: "Cousin Qing, I'll help you go, the ground here is slippery, and there are many branches of trees, you have to be careful." ”

Cui Wanqing was stunned by her, and then she smiled with relief, took her little cousin's hand, and said softly: "Tang'er has a heart, come, let's sisters go together, pay careful attention, and there will be no mistakes." ”

Looking at Cao Tang, who walked forward cautiously and pulled her tightly, Cui Wanqing's heart was sour, this kid was finally enlightened, the wind used to blow around all day long, how could he have paid attention to anything?

At this moment, although it is just a small thing to help yourself walk and tell yourself to be careful, it is at least a good start.

"It seems that what I said just now was not in vain." She whispered to Cao Tang, "Good sister, if you are at home, you also support your grandmother like this, take care of it, she is afraid that the old man will have no eyes to laugh." ”

Cao Tang raised his little face and said with a smile: "Hehe, when we get home, I will do this, and I will always do it in the future." ”

"Cousin Qing, I want my father, grandmother, uncle, aunt, and brothers to be happy because of Tang'er, by the way, and cousin!"

"If this price is to make me grow up quickly and be a dignified and courteous lady, then I am willing."

Cui Wanqing looked at her clear and sincere eyes, raised her hand to remove a lock of hair from her sideburns, gently followed it behind her ears, and whispered: "Good Tang'er, you are really sensible and have grown up, if the third uncle knows, he may not be happy." ”

"But, Tang'er, do you know? In fact, you can continue to be lively and cute, and at the same time, you can still be the lady in the eyes of the elders. ”

Cao Tang's eyes widened and he asked in surprise, "Ah! Can it be like this? These two things are obviously contradictory, how can there be no conflict? ”

Cui Wanqing smiled, pulled Cao Tang to continue walking, and said calmly: "We can skillfully let these two get along harmoniously, and Tang'er in the future will be not only a cute pistachio, but also a lady who is praised." ”

"Do you want to be like this?"

"Uh-huh." Cao Tang nodded hurriedly, "Yes, I am willing, cousin Qing, but what should I do?" ”

"Don't worry, this is not something that can be done in a day or two, we have to take our time, you, just listen to your cousin obediently in the future."

"When we go back to Beijing, Guan Bao will let my grandmother and them look at you with admiration!" Cui Wanqing's method of teaching people is too much.

As long as Cao Tang fully cooperates, she is still confident that this child will not completely annihilate his lively and cheerful nature while being dignified and atmospheric.

I heard Cao Tang pulling Cui Wanqing and twittering, "Oh, good cousin, don't sell Guanzi, you just tell me first." ”

Cui Wanqing shook her head with a smile.

"Just a little bit then?"

Cui Wanqing still chuckled and shook her head.

"Isn't it okay to do a little bit?"

"Huh." Cui Wanqing couldn't help laughing out loud and reached out to wrap her hand around Cao Tang's shoulder.

The sisters muttered like this. Affectionately and affectionately all the way out of the forest.

According to Cui Wanqing's meaning, it must be directly on the carriage and sitting in his own small world.

After all, there are many cars and people outside, and the young ladies in the two boudoirs still have to take care of their image and not leave a bad impression.

But who knows, when he walked to the half-center, Cao Tang's eyes were attracted by the big iron pot on the fire.

This young lady. The master who has never been in the kitchen for half a step. This will see the three-foot-wide cauldron, one or four or five, I really think it's not rare, and this step under my feet is a little immobile.

Pulling Cui Wanqing, she asked curiously, "Cousin Qing." It's noon today. Let's eat. Is it made out of these pots? ”

Cui Wanqing actually knew that it was said that it was camping and cooking, but in fact, it was still dry food. Dim sum is the main thing, that is, set up a bonfire, boil some hot water, and be able to cook some hot soup.

She blocked her eyes with her hand, and sure enough, in front of the forest, there were rabbits and pheasants that had been hit, which would have been disemboweled, and several strong men with strong men were chopping pieces with machetes.

Cui Wanqing said with a smile: "I'm afraid you don't want to eat rice, but it seems that a bowl of chicken soup is still indispensable." ”

Cao Tang was overjoyed when she heard this, she was really afraid that she would bring her a plate of greasy duck meat and chicken, and when she thought of the hard cake, Cao Tang would have a little sour teeth.

I think there is a bowl of hot soup, soak the cake softly, and swallow it better.

Don't look at the table at noon, there are a few more pieces of roast rabbit meat, and a bowl of hot chicken soup with wild onions, Cao Tang, this little girl, really has a great appetite.

Compared to the unpalatable lunch of the last trip, this time the food is much sweeter.

For Cui Wanqing, as long as she doesn't think deeply, have these chickens and rabbits been washed and killed, and the bluestone slab that chopped the chickens and rabbits into pieces has not been washed with water, then this chicken soup can still be regarded as ingestible.

After finishing the meal in a short time, the people outside cleaned up quickly, and the convoy began to start slowly again, heading towards Jiangzhou City.

The rest of the road was still calm, except for two groups of pedestrians who were in a hurry, there was no other episode.

Two hours later, the group finally returned to the gate of Jiangzhou City smoothly, and sure enough, there were more than 100 officers and soldiers at the gate of the city than when they left the city, so that the people who needed to enter the city gate lined up on the right side and checked one by one.

Looking at the posture, it seems that the search is very careful, at least there are six or seven portraits alone, one by one compared with the pedestrians, the atmosphere is very dignified.

The intersection on the left should be reserved for the big families, and the VIP passage for the eunuchs, compared with the two sides, it is obvious that there are fewer cars and horses on the left than the people on the right.

In front of them, there were only two or three families, and the one with the most people was only three carriages, which were soon checked and released.

Seeing that it was their turn, Yang Junyao strode forward, led everyone's way, and brought a silver ticket of one hundred taels together, and handed it to the little leader of the investigation.

Such a large amount of silver tickets must be very good, the little boss turned around and handed over the silver tickets, and the captain who led the team saw the large amount of silver tickets, and then looked at Cao Mu and Cui Yongzhong, both of whom were officials of the imperial court.

There is also the Dachengtian Temple in the capital, the master and apprentice of the master, know that the people in this convoy are all nobles, where do you dare to slack?

hurriedly ran over, bowed his head and negotiated with Yang Junyao.

I heard him say in a very embarrassed voice: "Brother, don't you know, the city has been investigating tightly in the past two days, there are lost felons in prison, and the strict orders of the upper peak, all the vehicles entering and leaving must be searched, you see, this"

Yang Junyao smiled: "Hey, how dare you let you take on the role?" It's just that there are two of our young ladies in the team, don't be surprised, and Master Ran, he is used to being noisy. ”

"You take a look at these two carriages, and the rest will be as you please, no special treatment is required."

When this Wu Chang saw that Yang Junyao was a knowledgeable person, and his tone of speech was full of bright and upright energy, he didn't seem to have a heart at all, so he couldn't help but laugh even happier.

A noble person like this kind of generous man, it is difficult to meet a few a day, and he happened to meet it when he was on duty, and he was not happy about the good things that fell from the sky?

I am not lazy to take a cool place in the shade, and I personally take someone to check it.

When they arrived at the carriage of Cui Wanqing and Cao Tang, the chief of the Wu humbly asked for peace outside, and he didn't dare to lift the curtain to take a look.

As a result, Magnolia generously lifted the curtains, smiled and handed over a purse embroidered with flowers and birds, "My lord has worked hard, Miss said, a little money, it's not worth anything, and please don't be too little, take it and your brothers to eat a few dimes of wine." ”

"Hey, you're polite, you're polite, you really don't dare to be it!"

"Thank you for the reward of the two young ladies, thank you, thank you." The moment he looked up, he still looked at the car, and his eyes were surrounded by beads and greenery, and the clouds were fragrant.

In the small carriage, there were only four people, two young ladies and two maids, and now his heart was more steady.

In the dark, he twisted the purse with his fingers, there were not many things in it, just five or six round beads, he couldn't help but shout in his heart, 'Heavenly Bodhisattva', this smile, his eyes are about to be lost.

In this mood of hitting the big luck, this person came to the side of the carriage of Master Ran, and just glanced at the curtain.

But the servants and attendants checked very carefully, and compared them one by one with the road guides, and this was the end of the matter.

From beginning to end, Qi Xuanhui was not the slightest bit impatient, holding a miscellaneous book about the customs and customs of Jiangnan, reading it with relish, and he didn't even raise his eyelids for this wide-eyed Wu Chang.

However, when Commander Wu gave him a salute, Cui Yongzhong, in line with the sense of responsibility of the officials of the Dajing Dynasty, deliberately advised: "Even if such a big thing happens, it is better to investigate carefully, we are not only officials of the imperial court, but we must also set an example." ”

When the Wu Commander heard the righteous and awe-inspiring words, his whole body trembled, and he instinctively listened to Cui Yongzhong's true words as a counterword.

He thought in his heart, these people, one is the younger brother of Ming Anhou, the other is the younger brother of Hubu Shangshu, and the two families are still relatives.

Another son surnamed Qi, his appearance is even more terrifying, and he was afraid for a while, for fear that these people would settle accounts in the future, so that he would not be able to eat and walk around.

The result in his heart is that he didn't have the heart to look at the last dozen or so people, he didn't have the heart to look at it carefully, they all glanced at it in a hurry, and then passed, which was considered to be the end of the investigation.

Seeing that there was no suspicious situation, Wu Chang hurriedly trotted all the way to the head of the team, returned Lu Yin respectfully to Yang Junyao, and asked them to pass.

At the moment when the carriage started, Master Ran looked determined, and said indifferently, "Master Qi has always done things safely, Master Yan can rest assured, just wait to enter the mansion with peace of mind." ”

Just listened to the wall of the car behind him, a small voice came, "Yes, the boy understands, let the master bother to break the ring, the boy is really frightened." ”

"Sins, Sins" (To be continued......)
