Trip three

"It's coming, it's coming!" The shopkeeper hurriedly ran out from behind and said with a smile: "A few guest officers, please take a seat, please take a seat." ”

The big man who spoke said impatiently: "Don't talk nonsense, quickly get some good food and good dishes." There are also two ordinary rooms above the two rooms. ”

The shopkeeper was embarrassed and said, "This... The small shop is just a small business, and it is not in the room, and I ask the guest officer to forgive me. ”

The big man was about to get angry, but the brocade-clothed man standing in front of him raised his hand to stop him and said, "Forget it, just ask for four rooms, just clean them." ”

Several of the subordinates knelt on the ground and said, "How can you let Childe stay in such a place?" ”

The shopkeeper said: "The small shop... There are only three rooms left. Can a few people squeeze in? ”

The woman frowned and said unhappily, "How do you squeeze this?" Do you want my fifth brother to share a room with his subordinates? ”

The shopkeeper was also very helpless, and said, "However, there is really no room in the shop." ”

The man frowned, and the entourage behind him whispered, "Fifth Young Master, there is only this inn in this town. ”

Hearing this, the man in brocade also frowned. Looking at the shopkeeper, he asked, "Isn't it possible to vacate another room?" We pay more. The shopkeeper smiled bitterly, his small shop has a total of six rooms, and it usually doesn't have a few days a year to be full, who knew that so many people suddenly came here tonight.

Huan'er came out of the backyard after cleaning up the room, and the voice came before the voice arrived, "Girl, the room is cleaned up." "When I stepped into the lobby, I saw that there were several more people in the small lobby, and it was a little crowded for a while. Huan'er hurriedly stopped and walked behind Siniang to stand still.

The brocade-clothed woman looked at Huan'er and suddenly asked, "How many rooms did they book?" ”

"It's... Three, but there are five of them in this son's wife. ”

The woman in brocade said: "There are more of us than them, let them give us a room." ”

"This ......" shopkeeper is very difficult.

The man who was acting as a guard had already rushed to the two of them in one step, raised his hand and slapped a piece of silver on the table, and said proudly: "Give us the room, these ten taels of silver are yours." ”

Siniang raised her head, glanced at the man in front of her with a relaxed expression, lowered her head and drank tea.

Being ignored, the man was immediately furious, "What do you mean? Didn't you hear me speak? ”

Siniang ignored it, and the woman finally became angry, and raised her hand to grab Siniang's face.

"Zhao Qing, stop!" The man hurriedly shouted, but did not immediately step forward to stop him.

The hand of the woman in brocade did not catch Siniang's face, and Siniang still held a teacup and drank tea with her eyes down demurely. Ye Sheng grabbed the wrist of the brocade-clothed woman with one hand, raised his eyes and said lightly: "Girl, I want to fight." ”

When she met his eyes, the woman in brocade felt cold in her heart, and soon became angry again.

"Presumptuous, you dare to grab Miss Ben's hand! Don't kill you! ”

Ye Sheng raised his hand and waved his wrist away, took out a pale cyan square scarf and wiped his hand slowly.

"The two of them are angry, and the ignorance of the family makes the two laugh." The man stepped forward and apologized.

"Second brother!" The woman in brocade said angrily.

The man patted her vest and said softly, "When you're out and about, don't make trouble." Where there's a first-come, first-served serv, isn't it? After speaking, he turned to the shopkeeper and said, "Since there is no room, I bother the shopkeeper to prepare a few more quilts, and we can just make a bunk on the floor." ”

The shopkeeper breathed a sigh of relief and said hello repeatedly. They are just small people who do small business, and it is naturally best to be harmonious. No matter what happens, they can't please them.

Cautiously glanced at the brocade-clothed woman, and the shopkeeper said, "A few guest officers, please take a seat, the meal will be ready soon." ”

"Thank you."

The meal came quickly, and the two groups of people divided into four tables to eat separately, but they were all right.

At night, Ye Sheng still had Ning'er to take care of, Yang Zhi and others stayed in one room, and finally Siniang and Huan'er in one room.

Early the next morning, Ye Sheng and the others got up early and went out for breakfast in the inn. I originally thought that the group of people I met last night was just a meeting in Pingshui, but I didn't want to leave for only two hours, and they were resting and sharpening in a flat place on the side of the road, and the group of people had already caught up.

Seeing Ye Sheng and the others, the man looked full of surprise. stepped forward and smiled: "What a coincidence, I met two more." You two also went to Tokyo? ”

Ye Sheng nodded slightly, and the man in brocade immediately smiled: "Everyone meets is fate, why don't you go together?" ”

Ye Sheng raised his eyes and looked at the man for a moment, and said, "Feel free, brother Tai doesn't think we are dragging down the trip." ”

The man in brocade shook his head and smiled, "How come?" My brother and sister don't have anything to do, we just go out and hang out. ”

"Second brother!" The brocade-clothed woman glanced at Lu Siniang with some envy and shouted in a low voice.

The man smiled: "Little sister, Brother Hengzhu has already left, he doesn't want to see us, and we can't find him." Why be in such a hurry. ”

"But..."The brocade-clothed woman glanced at Lu Siniang and Ye Sheng, who were sitting opposite, and swallowed back the words that came to her mouth.

"Under Zhao Qing, this is the housesister Cao Lian. Haven't asked my brother Taigao's name yet? ”

Ye Sheng glanced at him lightly and said, "Ye Sheng." ”

Zhao Qing's smile became more cordial, "It turned out to be Brother Ye, Mrs. Ye." What's the matter with the two of you going to Tokyo? I have some friends in Tokyo who might be able to help. ”

Ye Sheng said: "Enter Beijing to take the exam." ”

"So... We're on the same page. Zhao Qing said with some joy.

Lu Siniang sat quietly beside Ye Sheng, as if she was a gentle and beautiful woman who obeyed her husband's orders. didn't say half a sentence from beginning to end, and Zhao Qing and the others naturally thought she was such a character. However, neither of them had their eyes on her for long.

Lu Siniang lowered her eyes and ate while silently complaining in her heart about Zhao Qing who was talking eloquently on the other side. Where did the hell come out of the squirt who only talked about it, listening to the so-called insights he said, Lu Siniang wanted to laugh while still having to endure the urge to beat people away.

In Zhao Qing's eyes, they are only afraid that they are two young couples who came out of Quanzhou and may be relatively wealthy, but they have not seen much of the world. But this young man also has a beautiful girl like a flower, which makes him contemptuous and jealous. So he desperately showed off his family background and knowledge between words, but he didn't know that he was just a joke in the eyes of the two people in front of him.

Ye Sheng watched Lu Siniang's eating gradually increase speed, and he also knew that she was impatient with this gentleman. However, the news he wanted to know had already been set out, so naturally he didn't need to endure the person in front of him. Ye Sheng turned his head sideways and asked Lu Siniang beside him, "Is Madam rested?" ”

Lu Siniang nodded, and Ye Sheng said softly: "Then let's set off early." Arrive at the pier early to take a break. ”

beckoned Ning Er to bring water to the side, and the two of them cleaned their hands, Ye Sheng pulled Lu Siniang to get up and said, "We're leaving, Brother Zhao is at your own convenience." ”

Zhao Qing, who was making a big speech, paused, nodded with a stiff expression, and sent Ye Sheng and his wife away.

It wasn't until Ye Sheng and his party left that Cao Lianfang, who was sitting beside him, sneered and said, "Second brother, people don't want to deal with you at all, why do you use your hot face to stick to other people's cold butts." ”

Zhao Qing glanced at her and said, "Little sister, where did you learn these nonsense words." Father and mother must be unhappy to bring you out this time, if you become oblivious to the rules and etiquette, second brother, I will not carry this black pot for you. ”

Cao Lian immediately pulled Zhao Qing's sleeve and shook it, and shouted, "Okay, second brother, I know it's wrong." I know that my second brother loves me the most. But... What's so good about that woman? It's just that he looks a little good, and he's still married. What kind of beauty do you want, why bother staring at her? ”

Zhao Qing smiled: "In that case, why have you been staring at her?" ”

Cao Lian's originally delicate and lovely face immediately sank, and she said softly: "She is the singer who Ye Sheng redeemed at the question meeting held by Qian Gong. ”

Zhao Qing looked at her with his chin in his hands, and said with a smile: "She looks average but has a heroic aura. There is also a person who is favored by the emperor, and there are many spies of the Imperial City Division along the way to protect him. Don't let your temperament bring disaster to your Cao family. ”

"Okay second brother" The woman responded, and said secretly in her heart, I'll find someone to do it.

On the carriage on the other side, Lu Siniang was lazily lying on the seat and tilting her head to look at Ye Sheng. Ye Sheng was holding a book and reading it calmly, and the bumps in the carriage did not affect him at all.

"Who's that guy just now?" Lu Siniang asked.

Ye Sheng raised his eyebrows, "Why do you think I will know who he is?"

Lu Siniang cut a snort, rolled her eyes and said, "If it wasn't profitable, would you take care of him?" ”

Ye Sheng closed the book and put it aside, and said, "He is not profitable. ”

"So, you still know him." Lu Siniang said with a smile.

Ye Sheng shook his head lightly and said, "I don't know, but I guessed it." ”

"Oh? Be all ears. Lu Siniang said.

Ye Sheng sighed lightly and said, "Son of the royal family." ”

"Sons of the royal family, what a big deal." Lu Siniang praised.

Lu Siniang asked with some curiosity: "Children of the royal family, what are you doing in Luoyang?" ”

Ye Sheng shook his head, he was not a god operator. Just instructed, "Be careful with these two people." ”

"Huh?" Lu Siniang was puzzled.

Ye Sheng stared at her face for a long time and said, "Zhao Qing is a womanizer, but I believe you can handle it." But that Cao Lian... You'd better be careful. ”

Lu Siniang nodded knowingly and said, "That girl is really arrogant?" ”

A hint of inexplicability flashed in Ye Sheng's eyes, and he said lightly: "She is indeed jealous, but... But I'm not jealous of you. ”

Lu Siniang blinked, "This great god looks like a fairy, and it is normal for a mortal to be jealous."

Ye Sheng looked at her and didn't speak, but his eyes revealed the meaning of "exactly". made Siniang secretly happy in her heart, and she was a little embarrassed after boasting.

At this time, Ye Sheng interjected again: "In short, you should be careful. She is the only concubine of the Cao family now, and the power behind her should not be underestimated. ”
