Chapter 8: Find a Tool Man

Gangneung City is like a deep lake, the surface is calm, but there is an undercurrent surging under the water surface. On this side, Zhao Qingnian, who didn't know anything about this matter, got off the boat in Ning'an.

Ning'an is also a prosperous city, but the atmosphere is slightly more open, which is different from Gangneung City.

Zhao Qingnian lined up at the gate of the city with the crowd, and she watched the people in front of her give something to the officers and soldiers guarding the city, and then she could go in.

"What's that?" She muttered to herself, and a person next to her responded: "You don't even know this, that's a pass." ”

Zhao Qingnian shook his head: "I don't have a pass." Seeing that she was dressed as a country girl, the man pointed to the table next to her: "It's not easy, go to that table and write down all your information, and you can get a pass." ”

I see.

A magnificent carriage drove by, and the officers and men saw it from a distance, and hurriedly beckoned people to open a door next to it, so that the carriage could pass smoothly.

"The carriage," she asked, and the man glanced at the carriage and explained, "It's all the carriages of the adults, they are all people with status, where do they need any passes, they themselves are not passes, they come and go without hindrance." ”

Zhao Qingnian echoed, thanked the man, and walked to the officers and soldiers.

When the officers and soldiers saw someone coming, they pulled a piece of paper at random and asked impatiently, "What is it called?" ”

Since he sneaked down the mountain, he must not use his real name, Zhao Qingnian thought for a while: "Li Feixue." ”

The officers and soldiers looked up at her unexpectedly: "Li Feixue? Tsk, you country girl, you have the same name as the deputy head of April in the world. ”

Well? Fei Xue's reputation is already so big, even the officers and soldiers guarding the city gate know her name. She couldn't help but ask: "The deputy head of April in the world?" Is she amazing? ”

"Aren't you talking nonsense, since the legendary head of the sect retreated, she was in charge of the world in April, that's, tsk." The officers and soldiers said with admiration: "The heroine among the women." ”

Zhao Qingnian listened, and his heart was full of mixed feelings. Under her impulse, Tu slipped down the mountain for a while, and she was happy, but she threw all such a big sect to Fei Xue.

The officers and soldiers didn't give her time to think about it, and interrupted her rudely: "Hey, where did you come from?" ”

Zhao Qingnian came back to his senses and subconsciously said, "From Jiangling City." "Yo, it's strange, you're from Jiangling City, and you don't know the name of Deputy Head Li?"

The officers and soldiers were suspicious and looked at her, and Zhao Qingnian was anxious: "Alas. She sighed and said, "I'm tired of running around every day, and those big things are something that a little woman like me can hear." ”

Seeing this, the officers and soldiers also felt that they were too suspicious, and he waved his hand: "Yes." ”

Between questions and answers, she reported a lot of false information with mixed truths, and the officers and soldiers put down the paper, raised their chins and clicked on her package: "Okay, the baggage is opened, let's check it." ”

Zhao Qingnian's heart tightened, and her clothes were all over her baggage, which didn't match the coarse cloth dress on her body at all.

She took the burden behind her, and before she put it on the table, she pretended to be annoyed: "Oops! I've got something left on the boat! She looked left and right, and then looked at the officers and soldiers: "I won't go in first, I have to go back to the ship first." ”

As she spoke, she looked at the officers and soldiers, picked up her baggage and hurriedly left.

Shaking his head, the officer and soldier pressed the piece of paper underneath: "Throw it away." ”

Escaping the catastrophe, Zhao Qingnian sat in the teahouse and took a sip of tea, listening to the people in the teahouse with his ears sideways.

A carriage drove past the door, and the two scholars next to him changed their words and began to discuss: "Why have there been nobles entering and leaving Ning'an City recently?" ”

"I heard that someone from above came down, and these big officials all went to meet and have some relationship." The scholar was sarcastic, and continued: "These officials, complicit, corrupt, heh, even claim to be the parents of the people, ridiculous. ”

"Well, don't talk about it, those people are so close to us, don't be heard." Another man advised him, but the scholar was indignant, but he still didn't say anything more.

Zhao Qingnian thought thoughtfully, since these big officials can enter and exit the city gate at will, then ......

After paying for tea, she walked into an inn, and a moment later, a young girl walked out of the back door of the inn.

She walked out of the narrow alley, her snow-blue skirt fluttering, all the way to the street, where she sat in front of the teahouse, staring down at the teacup in front of her.

Pedestrians came and went on the road, passing by her, and they had to look at her a few more times, and she looked down and fiddled with the dark lines on her cuffs.

The girl's eyebrows and eyes are clear, the corners of her eyes are eyebrows, her expression is careless and cold, her eyes are lowered with a hint of fatigue, and the people around her come and go, none of which have anything to do with her.

Wei Xingsheng passed by the street in a carriage, lifted the curtain to take a look, and was attracted by her, and could not move away.

"Stop! Stop it! He hurriedly shouted, and the carriage stopped at once, Wei Xingsheng lifted the curtain and jumped down, and walked quickly to the girl, wanting to speak, but annoyed that he was too anxious.

Here it comes? Zhao Qingnian laughed in his heart, and the eager footsteps behind him paused again, and he hesitated for a while, like a shy young man, ignorant and didn't know how to speak.

Then she came to his aid and gave him an excuse.

Zhao Qingnian sighed softly, not big or small, just enough for the people behind him to hear.

Wei Xingsheng naturally heard it, and the beauty sighed, the opportunity has come!

Mustering up his courage, Wei Xingsheng stepped forward, the girl happened to get up, and between the four eyes, his face flushed with a thin red: "Ah... Girl... This girl... You... Hello. ”

After he finished stumbling, he stood at a loss, expecting the girl's response.

Zhao Qingnian secretly looked at the young man in front of him, he was full of noble air and looked extremely cultivated.

She nodded politely: "What is the son looking for me?" ”

Wei Xingsheng saw her sitting alone in the teahouse, looking preoccupied, so he asked her: "I just heard the girl sigh, but the girl is troubled?" Zhao Qingnian raised his eyes to look at him, and lowered his eyes again: "The pass is lost." ”

Seeing that he was at a loss, Zhao Qingnian added: "I can't enter Ning'an City." ”

Isn't that easy? Wei Xingsheng sent out an invitation: "Girl, I am also going to Ning'an City, we just happened to be on the way, I don't know if I have the honor to walk with the girl." ”

It's that simple? Zhao Qingnian thought to himself, Wei Xingsheng saw that she didn't respond, and pointed to the carriage next to him: "It's the carriage that gets off over there." ”

She looked over, the gilded carriage of the carriage was particularly dazzling in the sun, the curtain was embroidered with gold thread with large moire, and the two pure white horses pulling the carriage were majestic and extremely dazzling.

Looking at the expectant young man in front of him, Zhao Qingnian blessed his body: "Thank you, son." ”
