Chapter 34: Bai Wen Qu Xing
Ran Qiunian's gaze froze in one place, his brisk expression froze on his face, and slowly became a little cold.
She saw Liu Yufei and stepped down from Qi Ruoyun's carriage.
"Miss, Miss," Qingxi's voice sounded a little breathless from behind the carriage, Ran Qiunian lifted the curtain and let Qingxi in, no need for Qingxi to say more, Ran Qiunian already knew the result, "The slave maid had already watched Liu Yufei's carriage break down halfway, who knew that the little grandfather happened to pass by......"
"Forget it, this method is not perfect. This time, Liu Yufei was lucky, how could there be this Qi Ruoyun everywhere. ”
Although Ran Qiunian was a little unwilling, she didn't blame Qingxi, she said a few words of appeasement, lifted the curtain, and looked outside again.
Liu Yufei caught Qi Ruoyun's carriage, so that he could arrive in time. After getting out of the carriage, he raised his eyes and saw the young master of the Feng family, who was one step ahead of him, and his face suddenly turned cold.
"I didn't expect you kid to be lucky enough to climb into the carriage of the little grandfather, tsk, it's a pity."
Young Master Feng came out late, and when he passed by the streets and alleys, he also saw Liu Yufei's carriage broken down in the middle of the road. He naturally sneered and left directly, but he didn't expect Liu Yufei's luck to be so good.
Liu Yufei glanced at Young Master Feng coldly a few times, and didn't pay attention to him, but he hated Young Master Feng a little more in his heart. He glanced at the soldiers who were searching harshly not far away, and gave a look to the entourage who was carrying things beside him.
The entourage got the order, and without a trace, he approached the little guy carrying the cage next to Young Master Feng a few steps, and his fingers moved, and no one noticed anything unusual, except for Ran Qiunian, who was staring at it intently not far away.
Ran Qiu raised his eyebrows, but he didn't expect that there would be "unexpected joy".
"Tsk, Liu Yufei, this kid is really much more ruthless than me, and as soon as he makes a move, he is a ruthless move to raid the house and destroy the door."
If it weren't for her expectations, Liu Yufei asked his entourage to throw some forbidden things into Young Master Feng's cage that would be enough to convict him. According to the laws of this dynasty, cheating in the imperial examination is a big crime.
Although she didn't have much friendship with this Young Master Feng, she was able to taunt Liu Yufei so many times, and Ran Qiunian didn't mind being a favor and letting Liu Yufei's calculation fall through.
"Qingxi, go and hire someone for me and let him knock over the cage in that little guy's hand. Be quick. ”
In a hurry, Ran Qiunian didn't plan to think of any complicated tricks, whether he could take the opportunity to escape depends on whether the young master Feng was clever enough.
Waiting for Qingxi to return to the carriage, without waiting to see the follow-up, Ran Qiunian ordered to go home, not paying attention to what would happen next.
After the end of the Chunqiu Township Test, it will take three days to release the list, even though Ran Qiunian has already known the results from the memory of his previous life, he still can't help but be nervous for Xiao Yin.
"Tomorrow is the day of the list, I have to go to the temple to make incense, worship Emperor Wenchang, and ask Wenqu Xing to bless my eldest brother Toad Palace."
Ran Qiu thought about tomorrow's release day, but she couldn't settle down, so after breakfast, she went to beg the old lady, and wanted to go to the Chenghuang Temple on South Street to worship and ask for a good sign.
The old lady couldn't resist Ran Qiunian's entanglement, so she had to agree to her, and let Xiao Yin go with her, so that she could get the blessing of Wenquxing.
Maybe it's because the list is approaching, many people coincide with Ran Qiunian, and they all rush to the City God Temple at this time to burn incense and worship Wenqu Xing, when Ran Qiu Nian and they arrived, there were many pilgrims in front of the City God Temple, and there were crowds of people, just like in the New Year's Festival.
"Get out of the carriage and follow me in a while, don't run around, there are so many people today, I knew this was the case, I shouldn't have let you out."
Xiao Yin frowned a little, afraid that Ran Qiunian would be dispersed by the crowd, so after getting out of the carriage, he let the little guy open the way around, and walked beside Ran Qiunian by himself, always protecting.
Ran Qiunian was also a little surprised, he didn't expect that there would be so many people here, he knew that he was wrong, and he didn't refute Xiao Yin's words, he followed him closely, and walked on the trail leading to the City God Temple with some difficulty.
"This trail is too narrow for the carriage to pass, otherwise it will save a lot of effort."
Ran Qiunian walked cautiously beside Xiao Yin, afraid of being scattered by the crowd, after passing this trail of just tens of meters, it would be fine, the road in front of him was spacious, and it would not be so crowded.
A child recklessly bumped into him from behind, and the little guy who opened the road didn't pay attention, so he actually crashed straight into Ran Qiunian's body.
Xiao Yin quickly dragged Ran Qiunian and protected the person in his arms, and the child rushed over from the place where Ran Qiunian got out of the way, and soon ran away from the crowd.
"How did you get the way?"
Xiao Yin frowned and reprimanded, and let go of Ran Qiunian who was in his arms: "How about it, has Nian'er been bumped into?" ”
Ran Qiunian supported Xiao Yin's arm with both hands, raised his head from his arms, his face was still a little shocked, and he came back to his senses when he heard the words.
Looking at Xiao Yin's face close at hand, the cold plum aroma that lingered in his nose because of the proximity of the distance isolated the messy smell around him, making Ran Qiunian forget what to say for a moment.
"Nian'er, but were you scared?"
Xiao Yin looked at Ran Qiunian with a worried face, and reached out to probe Ran Qiunian's reddish forehead, a little strange: "Why is your face so red, is it too summer?" Otherwise, let's go back first. ”
Ran Qiunian came back to her senses at this time, for some reason her face was a little hot, she suddenly broke free from Xiao Yin's arms, dodged Xiao Yin's hand that probed her forehead, coughed lightly, and shook her hand to cover up.
"No, Nian'er just couldn't react at once. There are too many people here, Nian'er is a little hot and out of breath, they have all come here, let's hurry up. ”
Ran Qiunian subconsciously raised his feet to run forward as usual, but was grabbed by Xiao Yin's eyes quickly: "Didn't I warn you not to run around, there are so many people, I was scattered to see what you do, follow me." ”
Anyway, for fear that someone would suddenly collide with Ran Qiunian again, Xiao Yin didn't let go of her hand again, and just pulled people forward, Ran Qiunian was also a little unexpected and didn't protest, and was honestly led by Xiao Yin to finish the way.
"There is the City God Temple in front, and I will go back early after the incense, and it is difficult to walk in the evening."
Xiao Yin let go of Ran Qiunian's hand in front of the City God Temple, and Ran Qiunian subconsciously pressed his wrist that was led all the way by Xiao Yin, a little inexplicably uncomfortable.
"Okay, that Nian'er and Qingxi will go in to make incense first, and the eldest brother will donate the incense money, but remember to go there to ask for a sign, I heard them say that the unsigning of the City God Temple is very powerful."
After Ran Qiunian finished speaking, he dragged Qingxi, who was still stunned on the side, and walked quickly into the worship hall specially prepared for female guests.
After turning his back, he couldn't help but touch his cheek strangely as he walked.
"I've been through that journey, why do I still feel a little out of breath, why do I feel so much hotter than usual?"
Hearing the content muttered in Ran Qiunian's mouth, Qingxi looked at the sky strangely, and then looked at Ran Qiunian, whose face was flushed: "Today is a lot cooler than a few days ago, Miss Mo is really suffering from heat stroke, I have to drink more lotus seed soup to cool off the heat when I go back." ”
Ran Qiunian hurriedly asked Qingxi to go back and prepare a few more bowls for herself.
The two of you said a word to me, and entered the worship hall.
There are a lot of people outside, but the female guests don't feel overcrowded here. After entering the worship hall, Ran Qiunian felt that there were many fewer people all of a sudden.
She was about to find a spare futon to go over to offer incense, and with a sweep of her eyes, she saw Ran Yinyin kneeling there in the center praying.
"It's strange to see her here. Sanfang didn't hear about any cousin going to the scientific examination this time, and he didn't hear that anyone had any plans to gain fame, what did Ran Yinyin do when he came to worship Wen Quxing? It's weird. ”
Ran Qiunian looked at Ran Yinyin's back with novelty, although she was wearing a veil, Ran Qiunian recognized the personal maid next to her.
"Would you like to say hello to the young lady?"
Qingxi whispered in Ran Qiunian's ear, she knew that Ran Qiunian had always been unable to play with a few sisters in the third room, but Ran Yinyin was older, not as unreasonable as Ran Susu, and although she was not close to Ran Qiunian, she had never had a conflict on the surface.
"Whatever she does, don't you see it."
Ran Qiunian shook her head, to Ran Yinyin, she always felt a little frightened to get along, so it was better to deal with less.
The master and servant found a futon farther away from Ran Yinyin and knelt down, and sincerely prayed for Xiao Yin: "Wangwen Quxing bless my eldest brother Toad Palace, and the future is bright." ”
After Ran Qiu finished reading the incense, he looked at the place where Ran Yinyin was kneeling, but found that the person didn't know when he left, and he was no longer in the worship hall, and he didn't care, so he asked Qingxi to donate some silver in the merit box and wait in front of the hall.
Looking around, looking down from the steps of the worship hall, there was a flow of people in front of the City God Temple, the incense was flourishing, and the peddlers and pawns performed their duties, so that Ran Qiunian, who lived in the mansion for a long time, looked at the novelty, and couldn't help but smile a little on his face.
Eyes swept over, and suddenly saw a somewhat familiar silhouette walking towards the forest behind the worship hall, Ran Qiunian's eyelids jumped, and she subconsciously chased a few steps, wanting to see if that person was the person she thought he was.
Before reacting, Ran Qiunian had already left the worship hall and stood at the entrance of the forest behind, looking at the two people who had secretly met in the forest, and was surprised and didn't know how to react.
"That person is really Liu Yufei, and he actually came to the City God Temple."
Ran Qiunian secretly thought about it, and then took a closer look at the slender figure in the blue dress with a veil standing with Liu Yufei, wasn't it Ran Yinyin who had been seen in the hall before?
When did these two people get along so well in private? Ran Qiunian subconsciously grabbed the handkerchief in his hand, and couldn't help but listen to what the two people who met in the forest said.
"Brother Yufei, with your talents, you will definitely be able to win the first place in this Spring Imperial Examination. This is the talisman that Yin Yin specially asked for you, with the protection of Wenqu Xing, Brother Yu Fei will have a bright future and shine. ”
Ran Yinyin's face under the veil was slightly red, and a pair of beautiful eyes were shining, although she had the courage to have a private meeting with Liu Yufei in the forest, she still showed a down-to-earth and generous style, and handed out the talisman in her hand with a decent education.
"Cousin Yin is very loving, Yu Fei is ashamed and doesn't dare to be."
Although Ran Yinyin is only the daughter of the third room of the Ran family, among all the daughters in Splendid City, her appearance and talent are also outstanding.
Being admired by such a woman, even if Liu Yufei has no feelings for Ran Yinyin, he will never have a bad feeling. But what really attracted him was the value that Ran Yinyin could bring to him.
