"Hmph, look for death! Kill together! ”

The leader of the black-clothed killer obviously lost his patience, and directly waved his hand, asking his subordinates to kill Dabao and Erbao together.

The men in black nodded, with murderous intent in their eyes, and were about to slash over with a big knife in their hands, when a loud horse roar suddenly came from the forest, followed by a deafening man's voice.

"Stop!"

A strong wind suddenly rose, and everyone felt a chill in their hearts.

The leader of the black-clothed killers turned his head to look, but saw a man and a horse in the distance, traversing the forest.

The man was dressed in a blue robe embroidered with gold trim, and a long sword hung from his horse.

"I can't imagine that in the territory under the jurisdiction of my Yangzhou Mansion, there are still thieves like you?"

The black-clothed killer looked at the man on the horse, and shouted with horror on his face: "You...... Are you Shangguan Haoxuan, the son of the prefect of Yangzhou? ”

"Hmph, I have a bit of eyesight."

Shangguan Haoxuan jumped off his horse, picked up the saber on horseback, and walked straight over.

With every step he took, the black-clad killers involuntarily took a step back.

By the time Shangguan Haoxuan walked in front of Yan Zixi and them, those black-clothed killers had already fled.

"It's not good to stay here, let's go!"

"Hmph, gutsless rats!" Shangguan Haoxuan cursed disdainfully, but did not chase after him, but bowed to Yan Zixi.

"In Shangguan Haoxuan, presumably this beautiful girl must be Yan Zixi Yan of the Yan family in Ningcheng County, right?"

Without waiting for Yan Zixi to return the salute, the big treasure and the second treasure on the side pointed at Yan Zixi and shouted in surprise.

"What? It turns out that Miss Yan'er is Yan Zixi Yan Divine Doctor in Ningcheng County? ”

"No wonder! No wonder the medical skills are so superb that they have cured half of our village......"

Dabao and Erbao came to their senses at this time.

Shangguan Haoxuan frowned slightly, and asked Yan Zixi for advice in confusion, "Doctor Yan, why is this?" ”

Yan Zixi smiled bitterly, and then informed the three of them of what happened and what happened.

Dabao and Erbao suddenly realized after listening to them.

And after Shangguan Haoxuan heard that Yan Zixi had cured half of the villagers, he became more and more admired.

"Doctor Yan really lives up to his reputation, not only has excellent medical skills, but also has a benevolent heart, no wonder even Xiao Gongzi is full of praise for you!"

"Hmm, Xiao Gongzi?" Hearing this familiar title, Yan Zixi asked in surprise: "Is the Xiao Gongzi in Shangguan Gongzi's mouth the Xiao Jingcong Xiao businessman from the capital?" ”

"Xiao Da Shang...... Yes...... It's ......" Shangguan Haoxuan hesitated for a moment, then nodded with a smile.

Yan Zixi felt more and more strange, that Xiao Jingcong was really powerful, and he even knew the son of the state capital?

Shangguan Haoxuan seemed to see the doubts in Yan Zixi's heart, so he hurriedly explained.

"Oh, I once had a few encounters with Xiao Gongzi in the capital, and I can be regarded as friends. He passed by Yangzhou this time, and he had talked to me about the past, specifically mentioned you, and said that you would come to Yangzhou in the next few days, so that I could entertain you! ”

When Yan Zixi heard this, a sweet smile appeared on her face, and she muttered to herself.

"Hmph, Xiao Jingcong, you have a little conscience!"

"What did Doctor Yan just say?" Shangguan Haoxuan thought that Yan Zixi was talking to him, so he couldn't help but ask.

"Oh, it's nothing, Shangguan Gongzi, you don't need to call me by a miracle doctor, just call me by my name."

Saying that, Yan Zixi walked in front of Dabao and Erbao again, and thanked them: "Dabao, Erbao, thank you for escorting me all the way, I really appreciate giving up my life to protect me just now." Now that I'm safe, you can go back to the village and report to the village chief!" ”

Dabao and Erbao glanced at each other, and then said to Yan Zixi with some reluctance.

"Miss Zixi, if you have time in the future, you must come back to our village to see all of us!"

"yes, it will."

"Well, with Lord Shangguan here, we are also relieved, then our brother will go back."

"Well, go back, be careful on the road, and protect your life."

"Yes, Miss Zixi, we're leaving!"

Dabao and Erbao took the donkey and reluctantly said goodbye to Yan Zixi and left.

After they left, Shangguan Haoxuan sent an invitation to Yan Zixi.

"Miss Zixi, please come here, let me do my best to be a landlord!"

"In this way, thank you to Shangguan Gongzi!"

In the next few days, Shangguan Haoxuan kept Yan Zixi in the mansion and accompanied him, and in just three days, he almost saw Yangzhou City.

On this day, Yan Zixi also submitted his resignation to Shangguan Haoxuan.

Coincidentally, Shangguan Haoxuan was also going north to Beijing, so he proposed a peer to Yan Zixi, and he happened to be able to take care of it all the way.

Yan Zixi felt that Shangguan Haoxuan was a good person, and he was Xiao Jingcong's friend, and the journey to the capital was unpredictable, and it would be safer to take care of him, so he agreed.

……

Half a month later, Yan Zixi worked hard and finally came to the door of the capital after a bumpy journey.

On the carriage, Yan Zixi thanked Shangguan Haoxuan next to him.

"Shangguan Gongzi, thank you for taking care of you for half a month, Zixi doesn't know how to thank you."

"Hey!" Shangguan Haoxuan waved his hand and chuckled, revealing two neat rows of big white teeth, "Miss Zixi, what are you talking about?" We are friends, and friends should take care of each other. What's more, you have also treated the people of Yangzhou for me, and this time I will send you to Beijing, you and I are also on the way, Miss Zixi don't have to care too much! ”

Yan Zixi also laughed: "That being said, I still have to thank you, Shangguan Gongzi, after I gain a firm foothold in the capital, I must treat you to a big meal, it is my big thanks!" ”

"Haha, in this case, I will thank Miss Zixi first. It is really an honor for me to meet Miss Zixi, and I hope to meet her as soon as possible one day! ”

"Yes, if I can't stay in the capital anymore, I don't know if I can go to you, Shangguan Gongzi?" Yan Zixi asked quippedly.

When Shangguan Haoxuan heard Yan Zixi's words, he was stunned for a moment, then opened the folding fan and laughed: "Of course you can, you're welcome!" ”

"Shangguan Gongzi Hugh is going to coax me, you are about to leave and become a high-ranking official in the capital, I'm afraid you won't even let me in when the time comes!"

"Never, please rest assured, Miss Zixi, whenever you come to me, my door to Shangguan Haoxuan will always be open for you!" Shangguan Haoxuan swore to Yan Zixi and said.

Yan Zixi bowed and said with a smile: "Hehe, is it?" Then I will thank Shangguan Gongzi first, I hope there will not be such a day. ”

"Why?"

"Because when it really comes, it's when I can't get along in the capital, I don't want to be like that!"

Shangguan Haoxuan was slightly stunned when he heard this, and then laughed again: "Interesting, really interesting!" ”

"It's boring, it's boring! Okay, Shangguan Gongzi, then let's say goodbye and see you again! ”

"Well, there will be a date later!" Shangguan Haoxuan closed the folding fan and solemnly arched his hand.

Yan Zixi got out of Shangguan Haoxuan's carriage, took up the burden, took his horse from the coachman's hand, and strode towards the city gate.

After being inspected by the guards in front of the door, Yan Zixi finally really set foot on the land of the capital.

Stepping on the stone pavement of Zhengyang Street, looking at the wide, neat and clean street in front of her, Yan Zixi knew what it meant to be high-matched.

Compared with the streets of Ningcheng County in my hometown, it is simply one day and one place.

On both sides of the street, all kinds of quaint restaurants and shops are lined up with each other, and the hawkers who set up stalls shout, and the performers and jugglers attract the attention of onlookers.

The bustling Zhengyang Street is full of traffic, crowded with people, shoulder to shoulder, and very lively.

"After all, it is the capital of a country, it is really extraordinary!"

Yan Zixi sighed in her heart, and asked the passers-by next to her about the nearby post house, preparing to store the horse first.

These people in the capital are also very enthusiastic, not like no one in their eyes, not only pointed out the place of the post house for Yan Zixi, who came from other places, but also recommended several inns to her.

once made Yan Zixi wonder if these people were Lapike.

But fortunately, the journey was quite smooth, and after saving the horses, Yan Zixi did not rush to find an inn to settle down, but remembered the marriage letter in the baggage.

She plans to go to the general mansion of the town to try her luck first, maybe the food and accommodation connected to it will be saved?

Thinking of this, Yan Zixi asked the owner of the post house about the location of the Zhenguo General's Mansion, and then rushed over on foot.

……

In the palace of the general of Zhenguo.

"A girl asking to see you? What is that girl like? ”

"That girl is chic, and she looks very good-looking, she feels like a small jasper, but it's just ......"

Mrs. Xiao picked up a cup of tea and blew it gently: "It's just what, but it's okay to say it?" ”

The maid Xiaoyu recalled and replied truthfully. "It's just that the words are very weird, and I don't seem to know any etiquette......"

Mrs. Xiao snorted lightly and said coldly: "The wild girl in the countryside is a beggar to give some money and leave!" ”

"But ma'am, the girl said she had something important to do with you......

"Something important?!" Mrs. Xiao frowned slightly, "What's the matter?" ”

The maid Xiaoyu pursed her lips, and then said again: "The girl said that she brought a marriage letter, and the payment was from our Zhenguo General's Mansion." ”

"What do you say, marriage book?!" When Mrs. Xiao heard this, her body shook violently, and she immediately put down the blue and white porcelain cup in her hand, glanced at the maid, and asked, "Did you really say this?" ”

"Madam, the slave doesn't dare to lie, everything is the truth."

Mrs. Xiao thought for a moment when she heard this, as if she had thought of something, and after being silent for a while, she continued to ask, "Tell me, how old is that girl?" ”

"It looks like it's seventeen or eighteen......"

"Seventeen or eighteen? Well, it seems that it should be so old, I really didn't expect that eighteen years have passed, and that child is still alive? Mrs. Xiao seemed to be whispering to the maid Xiaoyu, and seemed to be muttering to herself......
