The next day.

In the early hours of the morning, there was a rapid knock on the door of Wangshanju.

Aunt Qian, who had just gotten up and was sweeping the floor in the courtyard, went to open the door.

I saw a young man dressed as a coachman standing at the door. Behind him was a carriage.

"Looking for whom?" Aunt Qian looked at him and asked.

"I'm the little servant of the Lu Governor's family, Fu Zhou. Please also go and inform the third son. ”

That Aunt Qian didn't dare to let people in at will, so she closed the door first and came to Wushan's house.

The reason why she went to Wu Shan's room instead of Lu Gongzi's room was because she thought that she should not disturb Lu Gongzi's sleep right now.

After coming to Wu Shan's house and waking Wu Shan up, she said to Wu Shan, who was still sleepy: "Wu Shan, there is a person at the door who says that his name is Fu Zhou, and he says that he is the little servant of the Lu family, is there such a person in the Lu family?" ”

"Pay Zhou? What does he look like? ”

"Thin, dark-skinned, tall, but with a small head."

"It's Fu Zhou, you let him in."

Aunt Qian brought Fu Zhou in.

Fu Zhou waited in Wushan's room until Lu Shikang got up before entering, and said to his third son: "Third son, those people managed to escape last night. Then they stopped a car in the middle of the night and went to a place. ”

"How did you follow? Did they find out? Lu Shikang said.

If you follow a horse in the dark, the sound is too difficult to hide and easy to detect. And if you don't ride a horse, you can't keep up.

"I'm the groom of the palanquin they were looking for."

"Oh?"

"I was worried that it would be difficult to follow them at that time, and when I first locked them up in the town, I began to think about the future follow-up, so I got acquainted with a sedan chair man, and I told the sedan chair man that my lady was about to give birth and needed money urgently, but I could not find a job, and I hoped to borrow his carriage every evening, and pay him back every morning, and I would give him half of the night's income, which was regarded as the money for renting his car, and he agreed, so the carriage became mine every day from the evening. They would never have thought of this, so the only palanquin they could find in town after they escaped last night was the one I was driving. As they said, I brought them to a place. ”

"Where?"

"A country man. Childe will come with me to have a look. ”

Lu Shikang took Fu Zhou and Qi Fang, one person and one rider, and Fu Zhou led the way and rushed north.

Along the northbound official road for seventy or eighty miles, to a junction, here to the west can turn to Jiangbei City, to the east can turn to Xiadong County.

Fu Zhou rode in front and rushed east in the direction away from Jiangbei City.

At noon, they arrived at the entrance of a village.

Fu Zhou stopped his horse and said: "Third son, they got off the horse at this intersection, I secretly hid the horse in the forest, watched them enter the village, and never saw them come out." So, they should be from this village. But I could not follow them, lest they be suspicious, so I would not know which door they entered. ”

Lu Shikang looked at a low and dilapidated cottage in the village and said, "This is not their destination. ”

"What? Third son, have I been discovered? ”

"Not necessarily, it's just that they are cautious and won't get off the sedan at the real destination."

"That'...... Didn't I follow in vain? Thinking that he hadn't slept all night, he thought he had done something big, but he didn't expect that it was actually useless, and Fu Zhou was a little disappointed.

"It's not in vain, although they are indeed cunning and get off the sedan chair in advance, but I already know their destination......"

"What? How does the third son know? ”

"Within a radius of dozens of miles, there is only one person who may have a big secret."

Fu Zhou and Qi Fang asked in unison, "Who?" ”

Lu Shikang smiled, "You still don't know first, do you want to be hunted down like me?" ”

Fu Zhou and Qi Fang hurriedly said: "Don't talk about the third son!" ”

Compared with knowing the secret of a big person, it is naturally a small life.

"Let's go, we'll come back in a few days." Lu Shikang turned his horse's head around.

"What? Still coming? Qi Fang asked.

"Yes, we'll go armed in a few days. It's not appropriate to go to inquire today. ”

"Third son, let's not pay attention to it so much, things that have nothing to do with us, we know more......"

Lu Shikang smiled slightly, "What you want to say, but if you know too much, you will be killed?" ”

"It was meant to be." The pores on Qi Fang's worried face were about to stand up.

"Let's go. Buy armed equipment and go. Lu Shikang took a quick step to hit the horse.

Qi Fang found that the third prince didn't listen to his words at all, so he had to stop dissuading him and follow behind with Fu Zhou.

When the three of them arrived in the town to the west, the sun was already slightly setting in the west, so they had lunch at the best inn in the town, and then Lu Shikang rested at the inn and asked Qi Fang and Fu Zhou to buy a few things.

The things to buy are six pieces of farmer packs, three saws, three Patou, and two things that Qi Fang and Fu Zhou can't understand, that is, Shi Dai and Hu Fen.

After the two of them bought their things and returned to the inn, the three of them set off to Wangshan Residence.

When they rushed to Wangshanju, Lu Yuanqing and He Ying had already arrived at Wangshanju a little earlier.

After Lu Yuanqing knocked on the door, Aunt Qian went over to open the door and saw two young women standing at the door, and there were three men behind them, one who seemed to be a groom, and two who looked like little servants.

Aunt Qian asked, "Who are you?" ”

"My name is Lu Yuanqing, and my third brother Lu Shikang just came here a few days ago to recuperate here." Lu Yuan Qingdao.

"Huh? Are you Yuanqing? You're that big? "Aunt Qian's impression of Lu Yuanqing is still a little girl, and now that she has grown so big, she naturally can't recognize it at all.

"You are?"

"I'm Aunt Qian, why don't you remember me?"

"I don't remember." Lu Yuanqing said honestly.

Aunt Qian laughed and said, "It's normal if you don't remember, you were a little girl at that time." Saying that, he looked at He Ying, "This is?" ”

"My cousin, He Ying! I've been here before! ”

"He Ying?" Aunt Qian glanced at He Ying up and down, but she was also a little impressed, remembering that the daughter of the old man Lu Zhen's family also came for a few days ten years ago, she was also a soft and weak girl back then, and now she looks like she is also weak.

"It's really Peugeot." Aunt Qian couldn't help but praise.

The reason why Lu Yuanqing is most annoyed to go out with He Ying is that no matter where she goes, others are praising He Ying and ignoring her.

She wasn't jealous of her, she just felt that those people could only see their looks in their eyes, and they didn't know anything about He Ying's pretentiousness.

So she walked into the courtyard and said to Hu San: "Hu San, go and see where my third brother is!" ”

Wu Shan, who was lying on the bed recuperating from his injuries, was taken aback when he heard Lu Yuanqing's voice outside, and said in his heart, why did these four girls come? And call him by name?

He hurriedly answered loudly on the bed: "Fourth girl, I'm here!" Your third brother went out to play! I'm home alone! ”

Hu San was about to respond to Lu Yuanqing's words, and when he heard Wu Shan responding inside, he knew that Wu Shan had heard "Hu San" as "Wu Shan" again.

He walked quickly to the room where Wu Shan's voice came from, and saw Wu Shan lying on the bed.

Then Lu Yuanqing and He Ying also walked in.

"What about my third brother?"

"I'm out, I don't know where I'm going."

"Then why don't you go?"

"Me? I was crushed by Dr. Kong and didn't want to walk. ”

"What? Crushed by Dr. Kong? How did it crush? ”

"Dr. Kong went up to the tree to pick camphor fruit to eat, and it just fell on my back, which crushed me."

Lu Yuanqing laughed and said, "Wu Shan, why are you so unlucky? ”

Wu Shan said aggrievedly: "Fourth girl, I'm so unlucky, you still laugh like this, do you think it's appropriate for the fourth girl?" ”

Lu Yuanqing smiled again: "Isn't this funny?" Dr. Kong, who can also climb trees? Alas, missed out on the fun. Looks like I should have come earlier. ”

"I'm all hurt, and it's a lot of fun." Wu Shan pouted.

"Then where did Dr. Kong go?"

"He went to practice medicine, and now he goes out at dawn every day and comes back in the evening."

"My third brother won't go with him?"

"Dr. Kong is busy every day, he leaves early every day, I don't know when he leaves every day, he doesn't seem to have eaten breakfast here, and I don't know where he eats breakfast every day."

"That's the case......" Lu Yuanqing nodded like a chicken eating food.

It wasn't quite what she had imagined.
