Chapter 115: Leaving Linqiong
Shu County Linqiong Longmen Mountain.
It has been almost three days since Zongxing arrived in Linqiong with a bag full of mad fruits.
After he came, he didn't see Zhuo Wenjun for several days, and finally he couldn't wait anymore and came directly to the Zhuo family's mine in Longmen Mountain.
"This little brother also asked me to spread the word, just say that I was sent by the Taixue Order of Chang'an City to see the eldest daughter of the Zhuo family."
Before I arrived at the mine, there were already roadblocks three or four miles away.
It can be seen that the Zhuo family regards these coal and stone mines as more important than anything else, although they are working for Princess Pingyang, the Zhuo family can still do their best.
"You wait here for a moment, and I'll go in and report."
At this time, the circulation of news is not strong, Zong Xing talked about Taixue Ling, and the rest of the people didn't know who it was at all, if the word Zhang Yuan was mentioned, maybe the caretaker would let Zong Xing go in directly.
Because the distance is not very close, this back and forth is an hour of time.
Zongxing was not impatient, but patiently looked at the surrounding mountains and rivers, thinking that this was where his master made his fortune.
In the eyes of these people, being able to get rid of slavery is no different from making a fortune, and now that they are promoted to Taixue Ling, they are already figures above the clouds for Zongxing.
"This nobleman, the eldest daughter, please come in."
The person who just went to pass the word has now come out, and he also realized that Taixue Ling is a great big man in Chang'an City, although he doesn't know that person is Zhang Yuan, but he knows that these three words Taixue Ling can make Zhuo's eldest daughter's face shocked.
"Okay, please lead the way in front."
You will definitely be able to find the mine along this road, but you may not be able to find Zhuo Wenjun, so Zongxing let the caretaker lead the way.
Sure enough, halfway through, a fork in the road appeared, and this person took Zongxing directly into another fork.
In the end, he walked nearly two miles before arriving at the place where Zhuo Wenjun lived.
"The eldest daughter is waiting for you inside, and the villain will retire first."
Zong Xing was a little confused, and only nodded his head.
Originally, Zongxing thought about why Zhuo Wenjun didn't live in the big mansion in Linqiong County, but instead ran to this deep mountain and old forest.
During the period, I suspected that the Zhuo family might attach too much importance to the mine, which made Zhuo Wenjun stare here, but after thinking about it, no matter how much attention was paid to it, it would not let the eldest daughter of the Zhuo family live in the mountains all the time.
Until he saw the scene in front of him, the clouds and mist were shrouded, the waterfall hung on the cliff, the birds and insects chirped endlessly, and occasionally there were small beasts passing by, and finally coupled with the house by the lake that looked quite simple, Zong Xing subconsciously thought that this was the seclusion of the immortal family.
"Living here is quite in line with the eldest girl's temperament."
Zong Xing muttered unconsciously, and then walked straight towards the house by the lake.
The house was like a normal farmhouse, surrounded by a fence and three houses in the yard.
Zhuo Wenjun is rich and this place is not very far from the mine, so there is no need for superfluous people to protect it, and there are no traces of crop growth around.
Ordinary farmers may have chickens or something, and their homes may be full of farm tools, but there are no here, and they are extremely clean.
"Zongxing asks to see the eldest daughter."
After entering the courtyard, Zongxing shouted at the main house.
Immediately, a voice came from inside.
"Oh, it turns out that Zongxing is here, come in quickly."
Hearing this, Zong Xing pushed open the door and walked in, Zhuo Wenjun was lying on his side on the bamboo mat, still holding a book in his hand.
There was a servant girl standing beside her, holding a fan and fanning Zhuo Wenjun all the time.
"Zongxing pays a visit to the eldest daughter."
"No need to be polite, I may not have seen you for a long time, and now you look like a man who stands up to the sky."
Zhuo Wenjun put down the scroll in his hand and straightened up.
"Ah Yuan, I'm afraid he asked you to come to Shu County just to find me."
Zong Xing was stunned for a moment, not knowing what to say, but he remembered everything Zhang Yuan explained.
"The head of the family does have other things for me to do, but now that they have all been done, this is the time to come to Qiong."
"Oh? What is it? ”
"The head of the house has commanded, but I can't say it."
Originally, Zhuo Wenjun was still a little interested, thinking about what was more important than her, but as soon as Zong Xing said this, Zhuo Wenjun's face turned cold.
"Okay, if you don't say it, don't say it, this person, it's not a good thing to have a high position, if you have a high position, you will have more secrets in your heart, and you will become more and more lonely."
Zong Xing was a little embarrassed, why did his face look quite good, and he changed his face when he said that he would change his face.
"Uh..."
"You men are more stupid than the other, Zhang Yuan, what did he let you come to me for?"
"The villain doesn't know."
"You didn't know that you came to Qiong to find me?"
"The head of the house just said to let the villain come to see you, saying that he was a little worried that there was no news from you for a long time."
"It's not because I'm worried that I've found a man in Shu County."
"Probably not."
"So what are you worried about?"
"The villain doesn't know."
"Get out!"
"The villain quits."
???
Zhuo Wenjun didn't expect to become like this, is this person stupid.
"Koizumi, call that fool back to me."
"Whoa."
Zhuo Wenjun's maidservant hurriedly ran out and called Zong Xing back.
Zong Xing thought to himself, you didn't tell me to get out, I was already out of the way, and you called me back to do something.
"Big girl."
"I forgot to ask you just now, did Zhang Yuan know other women in Chang'an?"
Zong Xing scratched his head, and really thought about it carefully.
"The head of the family has been busy with Taixue, and before I left Du County, the head of the family estimated that he had only spoken to a woman for more than half a year."
Zhuo Wenjun suddenly became a little nervous, and asked subconsciously.
"Who?"
Zongxing Zhengse.
"Her Royal Highness Princess Pingyang."
Suddenly, Zhuo Wenjun felt that this sect was not teasing her, why did she only talk to Princess Pingyang, and there were still a group of Xiaoqing people in the house.
In fact, Zongxing really didn't lie to Zhuo Wenjun, Zhang Yuan didn't go home much for almost a year, and occasionally went back to explain things to Lao Zhao Xiongda, plus he brought more than ten people to Du County, and the news exchanges in the family were usually done by Zongxing.
"Zhang Yuan is now in his prime, and he is still unmarried, which is a little strange."
Zhuo Wenjun said so, but he didn't know what he thought in his heart.
"The eldest daughter also knows the situation of the head of the family, there are no elders in the family, and there is no news of marriage to the outside world, which leads to no one coming to the door to say goodbye."
Zhang Yuan's personality is like this, if there is really an elder or someone who can call the shots to force Zhang Yuan to go on a blind date, maybe he will get married a long time ago.
But now in this extremely embarrassing situation, there are still many women in Dahan who basically don't go out much before they leave the pavilion, let alone Chang'an, a place full of nobles.
Zhuo Wenjun also had a fantasy that she would return to Chang'an with the first batch of coal mines.
But halfway through, she learned that Zhang Yuan was named Taixue Ling, and after getting the news that Liu Che was reused, she changed her mind.
With her current identity, it is impossible to be Zhang Yuan's wife, which has nothing to do with Zhang Yuantong's disagreement, even if Zhang Yuan only marries Zhuo Wenjun alone, outsiders will not regard Zhuo Wenjun as Zhang Yuan's wife, which insults the reputation of the Han Dynasty.
This led to Zhuo Wenjun's idea of staying away from Zhang Yuan, sometimes reputation is not important, sometimes it can put people to death, and Zhuo Wenjun does not want to be a burden to Zhang Yuan.
Over time, Zhuo Wenjun thought that Zhang Yuan had forgotten her, but he didn't expect Zongxing to come from Chang'an City.
Speaking of which, seeing her is only incidental, but it is still wonderful to have someone who can care about herself.
"When do you expect to leave Linqiong and return to Chang'an?"
Zong Xing thought about it, the matter of the madman fruit was in a hurry, and his trip had been delayed for more than a month, and it was estimated that it would affect Zhang Yuan's major events if he was delayed.
"I have seen the eldest daughter today, and the villain entrusted by the head of the family has been completed, and I will return to Chang'an tomorrow."
Zhuo Wenjun was a little disappointed in his eyes, and couldn't help but sigh.
"That's the case, then you remember to be careful on the road, I won't send you."
"The villain will retire, and the eldest daughter must remember to take care of her body."
Saying that, Zong Xing turned around and left for the second time, but he suddenly felt a little uncomfortable, felt that he should do something, walked to the door and turned around.
"Eldest daughter, according to the rules, those of us who are servants should not figure out the thoughts of the master's family.
But I think the head of the family should have someone by his side, and if the eldest daughter can't forget the head of the family, please take the initiative.
You also know the character of the head of the family, no one pushes him forward, he estimates that he will not even leave Lantian Mountain for the rest of his life, and if this continues, we servants will also worry that the head of the family may have no queen. ”
After saying this, Zong Xing immediately turned around and left the small courtyard, and set out on the way home alone.
Zhuo Wenjun's eyes also glowed with brilliance because of Zong Xing's words.
"Xiaoquan, pack up your things, and we will leave Linqiong tomorrow."
"Huh?"
