Chapter 128: Enemies
Zhang Mu rode his little black horse and walked on the official road, the sun was setting, the official road was rising in the sun, and the heat wave was rising, and Zhang Mu's clothes were soaked with sweat before and after.
Looking at the carriage running on one side, Zhang Mu couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart: "The passing year is not good, why do you have such a drudgery." ”
Looking up and looking ahead, the mighty team of more than 200 people made Zhang Mu's heart feel a little relieved.
At this time, Han Fangshan rode a fast horse from the front, stopped beside Zhang Mu and whispered: "My lord, there are still twenty miles away from Tonglu County." ”
"Twenty miles more?" Zhang Mu glared at the stirrup hard, stood up slightly, reached out and touched his buttocks, his pants were soaked with sweat, and his buttocks were sore, so he asked, "Are your butts okay?" ”
Han Fangshan said with a smile: "At first, I rode horses like this, but I slowly got used to it in the future." ”
When Zhang Mu heard this, he glanced at the little county lord's carriage lane with envy and jealousy: "Continue to explore the way, I just want this trip to be safe and sound, but don't make any more moths." ”
"Don't worry, my lord, I paid attention to my humble duties all the way, and no one followed." Han Fangshan said with a smile.
"When Lord Wu came that day, the carriage I asked you to track down, did you have a whereabouts?" Zhang Mu asked.
"The little one has found out that the carriage finally arrived at Xie's house in the south of Hangzhou. This Xie family is a local squire in Hangzhou, and has lived in Hangzhou for several lifetimes. Some of the fields and small industries under the door are honest people for three generations. There is nothing suspicious. Han Fangshan said.
"Did you inquire about the people in the car that day?" Zhang Mu asked.
"Lord Hui, there was a woman in the car that day, and I went to inquire in person, and I heard the old slave at their back door say that this woman was a distant cousin of their Xie family. Just coming here for a while. The rest of the lowly duties were afraid of being exposed, so they didn't ask any more. However, someone has been sent to keep an eye on it secretly, and someone has been sent to continue to listen, so your Excellency can rest assured. "Hanfang Mountain Road.
"Keep an eye on me. I always felt that the woman in the car was not an ordinary person. Zhang Mu said faintly, and recalled the scene of the time he saw this woman that day.
Although across the road, it was just a glimpse, Zhang Mu was still deeply impressed, firstly, because the woman was indeed long, but more importantly, when the woman saw him, she showed a sneer.
This sneer made Zhang Mu feel that this woman definitely knew him, and this woman and the vegetable farmer appeared at the same time, which made Zhang Mu feel that there were many suspicious points, and he couldn't feel at ease if he didn't investigate clearly.
"What woman?" At this time, Yan Su rode to Zhang Mu's side and asked.
Zhang Mu hurriedly smiled: "Just a suspicious woman, nothing serious." ”
Yan Su glanced at Zhang Mu faintly, gritted his teeth and said, "You have recently committed a peach blossom offense, but you have to be careful." After speaking, she touched the handle of the knife that broke the flow of water, and then glanced at Zhang Mu with great meaning.
Zhang Mu coughed and said, "Then there is?" Besides, don't you know my intentions? ”
"Hmph, who knows what your heart is? What kind of little county lord is it, and what kind of mysterious woman, Lord Zhang has been so busy recently, so I won't bother. Yan Su said in a casual voice.
When he set off this morning, Yan Su spoke with a gun and a stick, and when Zhang Mu heard this, he couldn't help but smile and said, "What? Jealous? ”
"Phew! I'm not unusual. Yan Su glanced at Zhang Mu and said.
Zhang Mu was just about to explain, when he heard the carriage window open, and then the little county lord poked his head out and shouted: "Zhang Mu, you come over to this county lord." ”
When Yan Su heard this, his pretty face suddenly darkened, and he gritted his teeth and led the horse forward, Zhang Mu couldn't help but smile bitterly and said, "Obey." ”
When they arrived at the side of the carriage, the little county lord said boredly: "Suffocated, tell the county lord a joke." ”
"Your Royal Highness, the little ones don't tell jokes." Zhang Mu said with a drooping face.
"Then it's okay to sing a song for the lead singer of the county." The little county lord said.
"Your Highness, don't be embarrassed." Zhang Mu hurriedly smiled.
At this time, an old woman who accompanied the car coughed and said, "Your Highness, close the window, it's hot outside." Beware of heat stroke. ”
The little county lord frowned, and said with an unhappy face: "Stop!" ”
"Stop!" Zhang Mu hurriedly shouted, and the mighty team immediately stopped.
The little county lord jumped out of the car door and stretched, Zhang Mu hurriedly turned over and dismounted, and quickly got down and rubbed his buttocks.
When the little county lord saw this, he blushed and said, "Are you ashamed, you don't know that such a big person actually pees his pants." ”
Zhang Mu couldn't help but blushed and said, "Don't make trouble, these pants are soaked with sweat." Your old man is sitting in the car, and the little poor man has been exposed to the poisonous sun for a day. Half of my life is left. ”
"Hehe, aren't you afraid that day when one person fights a hundred people? Why did you get stuck after only riding the horse for half a day today? The little county lord hunched his waist and asked with a pair of watery eyes.
At this time, the old lady got out of the car and saluted: "Your Highness, the hour is not early, let's hurry up." It will soon be dark. ”
The little county lord looked unhappy when she saw this old woman, she annoyed these people, nagging all day long, and her ears were about to become calloused, so she frowned, and said with anger: "Zhang Mu, can you teach me to ride a horse?" ”
"Hey, Your Royal Highness, you can't help it, there is a female doll riding a horse? It's not orthodox. Besides, you are a golden branch and jade leaf, in case you fall, the old slave and can't afford it. Stop messing around. The old lady said hurriedly.
The little county lord gritted his teeth and said: "My grandmother, Empress Xiaoci Gao, rode a horse and fought, why can't I ride?" Are you saying that my grandmother was not a proper person? ”
The old lady was suddenly startled, and hurriedly knelt down and kowtowed: "Your Highness, the old slave didn't mean that. ”
The little county lord said angrily; "Zhang Mu, help the county lord to get on the horse."
Zhang Mu saw that this little county lord was in the rebellious period, the more she didn't let her do anything, she was more and more energetic, glanced at the sky, it was indeed not early, and it didn't stop all the way today, and it would be dark again, and he said helplessly: "Come on, get a horse stool for the county lord." ”
The guards hurriedly brought the stool over, Zhang Mu helped the little county lord to get on the horse, and the old lady hurriedly waited on both sides, and the team moved forward slowly.
The little county lord should be riding a horse for the first time, very excited, plus she is outgoing, and she is not afraid of falling, so let Zhang Mu lead her and dance happily on horseback.
Zhang Mu hung a bitter gourd face, and said secretly in his heart: "Yes, there was a horse to ride just now, and now I am walking directly." What kind of sin do you think I have made? ”
