Hearing Yi Xingchen's words, Mei Lengxiang couldn't help but think of the scene where the two of them hid under the soft collapse in the Xuantian Temple, and couldn't help but feel a heart pounding again, secretly thinking in her heart, although this young man is weak, he can be said to be powerless, but he has the talent of the sky, and can calculate the hexagram to avoid the evil, since he has this ability, no matter how big the disaster is, he can't hurt him in the slightest, but he is too worried. ↖

Mei Lengxiang nodded and smiled: "Okay, since that's the case, you can go." ”

Yi Xingchen stared at her delicate face: "Sister, you also have to be careful, take care." ”

Yi Xingchen left Mei Lengxiang's boudoir and came to the front hall of the pharmacy. Seeing Tang Xiaoqi chewing snacks in her mouth and busy picking up medicine, she lay on the counter and said to her, "I'm leaving, I'll come to see you tomorrow." ”

"Okay,—— you wait!" Tang Xiaoqi took out a small bag of things from his pocket and handed it to him: "Take this and give it to you." ”

Yi Xingchen took it, pinched it, and said, "What is this?" ”

"Songhua candy, it's delicious, Tunzhou doesn't have to sell, my senior sister came from Jiangnan, passed by Tunzhou, and brought it to me. There are two packs in total, I kept one for myself, and I will give you one pack, try it! I can't give anyone else. ”

Yi Xingchen actually doesn't like to eat candy, but listening to Tang Xiaoqi say it so solemnly, and it is such a precious thing, and he gave half of it to himself, it can be described as well-intentioned, if he said that he didn't like to eat it, it would hurt her heart. Then he held it in his hand and said, "Okay, thank you for still thinking about me, let me eat all the good things." ”

Tang Xiaoqi grinned and said, "Okay, thank you, let's go." ”

Yi Xingchen smiled and waved his hand, took the bag of pine candy in his arms, and turned around and walked out of the pharmacy.

He went home and told Master that he was going on a business trip for several days, so Master didn't have to worry about it. Then he returned to the Jinyi Guard Yamen.

The three of them rode out of the yamen with official documents and went straight to the southeast. The route to escort the show girl is from the southeast into the boundary of Tunzhou, through the south of Tunzhou and then from the southwest, across the south of Tunzhou. They need to be greeted at a place in the southeast called Apricot Flowers. That place is the place where Tunzhou meets the border with nearby states and counties.

By the time they got to the apricots, it was already evening. Judging from the information received, the officers and soldiers escorting the show girl will enter the country the next morning. So they can have a night's rest here.

Apricot is a small market town, and they found one of the best inns to stay in. Whether the Jinyi Wei store gives money or not is all up to them. The store didn't dare to say anything at all, so Jin Yiwei always chose the best inn to stay in on business trips.

There was nothing to say all night, and early the next morning, Yi Xingchen proposed to settle the account. According to the previous practice of the two of them, it was not settled, but Yi Xingchen remembered Mei Lengxiang's words, even if he was a Jinyiwei, as long as he had a good heart, it didn't matter whether he was a Jinyiwei or not, so he didn't want to bully others, so he still settled the money for three people to live in the hotel. Anyway, there is enough subsidy for the tolerance Jinyiwei, and this money does not need to be paid out of your own pocket.

The shopkeeper thought that these three fierce gods would never settle the bill, and he didn't expect them to settle the bill, but he didn't expect the three of them to settle the house money, which made him overjoyed, and he thanked him vigorously, and personally helped the groom to put the saddle of the three people, and led the horses to the door of the inn.

Yi Xingchen sighed in his heart, being a Jinyi guard in the Ming Dynasty was really a trendy errand.

The three of them came to a hill at the border post, which was where the two sides met. Sitting on the hill and looking from afar, the winding mountain road under the mountain is clearly visible, and if the officers and soldiers escorting the show girl appear, they can see it from afar.

But it wasn't until noon that I saw the officers and soldiers escorting the carriage of the beautiful girl up the hill slowly.

Because these show girls were used for the emperor to refine pills, of course, they couldn't be lazy, so they hired carriages for them, and there were officers and soldiers in front and behind of a long carriage, and when they reached a relatively narrow place, only one carriage could pass, so there was no way to escort them on both sides. There will be no robbers under Lang Lang Qiankun, besides, they are escorting show girls, not gold, silver and jewelry, and the robbers should not risk their lives to rob a few women from the officers and soldiers. What kind of woman can't find money? Therefore, the road was too peaceful, and the officers and men were also very lazy, riding back and forth to enjoy the spring slowly, as if stepping on spring, slowly coming up.

Gao Zhugan and Ai Donggua asked Yi Xingchen to sit for a while, and the two stopped in the middle of the road, watching their convoy come from a distance, and raised their hands high. When the officers and soldiers in front saw two people wearing flying fish suits and carrying embroidered spring knives at their waists, they knew that they were local brocade guards, and immediately reported to the officials in charge of escorting them, as well as the brocade guards who had been escorted by the state and county before, and soon several people strode in front of the two of them.

The first military academy clasped his fists and said, "The two of you have worked hard, and you are really grateful for coming from afar to greet you." ”

Gao Zhugan smiled, took out the official document of Jinyiwei and handed it over, the officer accompanied Xiaoxiao to take it and unfold it, nodded, and turned around and handed it to a Jinyiwei next to him, Jinyiwei also looked at it, so he smiled and nodded to Gao Zhugan and said: "The errand behind will be handed over to the two brothers, and we will leave." ”

Gao Zhugan and Ai Donggua hurriedly surrendered: "Brother work hard, go all the way." ”

The military academy handed back the official document in his hand to Gao Zhugan, who pointed to Yi Xingchen sitting on the big stone under the shade of the tree and said, "That is our leading brother, surnamed Yi." ”

The military academy hurriedly stepped forward, clasped his fists and said, "It turned out to be General Yi, disrespectful and disrespectful." ”

In the Ming Dynasty, the emperor adopted the strategy of suppressing military affairs with civil affairs, vigorously improving the status of civil officials, suppressing military attachés, and military attachés of the same level could not hold their heads up in front of civil officials. Therefore, the military attache can be said to be smiling when he sees people, not to mention that when he meets the brocade guard next to the emperor, it is even more necessary to slap the horse and flatter him. So although Yi Xingchen is just a small brocade-clothed guard, this military academy rank is actually the general banner, leading a hundred soldiers, but he does not dare to slack off, and he is called a general.

Yi Xingchen stood up at this time, hugged his fists and arched his hands, this shelf must be placed, this is different from the common people, if you are too humble, the other party will look down on you, because your behavior does not match your status, others will think that you can't be a man.

Zongqi took out three small ingots of silver from his arms and held them with both hands, and sent them to Yi Xingchen: "This is a little foot horse fee for the three of them, and I hope to accept it, please take care of it along the way." ”

Yi Xingchen took the ingot of silver and cushioned it, it is estimated that each one has two taels, and this errand can earn two taels of silver! is equivalent to a month's salary, and I can't help but sigh in my heart, it is really too easy to be a Jinyiwei.

He thanked him honestly and unceremoniously, and then gave the other two ingots of silver to Gao Zhupole and Ai Donggua, and said, "Okay, my brother, you're welcome, let's go." ”

So, the three of them rode and followed the flag.

Zongqi kept talking to Yi Xingchen and them along the way, saying some strange things on the road, high bamboo poles and dwarf winter melons were also chattering, of course, you and I kept talking, only Yi Xingchen didn't like this kind of chatter, so he rode all the way just to look at the scenery, and looked at the sky from time to time.

In the evening, they went to a small town, and the three of them were of course paid for by the escorted officers and soldiers. At the moment, the banquet was set up, and the general flag called a few small flags in charge of escorting to come over and accompany the three Jinyi Wei uncles to drink. Although, escorting dozens of young and beautiful girls, but it was for the emperor, even if they had a hundred dares, they did not dare to call to accompany the wine, it was to kill the head, but fortunately there were singers in this village, so they called to listen to the music and drink wine, but also happy.

The next morning, the group continued to set off and walked forward, and by noon, they had come to the south of Tunzhou City.
