Gu Minluo has lived in Jiang Mansion for more than ten days, Jiang Qin has learned more about him, and judging from his words and deeds alone, Jiang Qin has nothing to worry about him.

In addition, the person sent to Anyang County to inquire about Gu Minluo's life experience has returned, which is not much different from what Gu Minluo said, and the doubts in Jiang Qin's heart have been dispelled a lot. Of course, Jiang Qin would not know that Gu Minluo still had the identity of the young master of Feitou Cliff no matter what.

More than ten days later, on a crisp morning, the two rode fierce horses and finally left. Jiang Qin's tears were hazy, even if he was reluctant, he was helpless.

Jiang Qin knew that this was just an expedient measure, but after all, there were too many worries, the rivers and lakes were difficult and dangerous, and the road ahead was vast.

However, for Jiang Tingxue, although she was a little reluctant to her father, she was also full of excitement and joy, which can be regarded as the completion of her dream of wandering the rivers and lakes.

Gu Minluo told the river to listen to the snow that they would go slowly on this eastward journey, and the two of them would go to visit the famous mountains and rivers and appreciate the customs and customs of various places. Although he was a little worried that he would be chased by the enemy along the way, in order to satisfy Jiang Tingxue's wish as much as possible, Gu Minluo was willing to take risks. If the crisis really comes, even if he does his best, he will definitely protect his beloved.

After Jiang Tingxue left, Yan Lingyang went to Qianzhuang to look for her several times, but got the same answer from the guy, saying that their young lady had already left, and he also saw that the manager of Qianzhuang had changed, and it was no longer Jiang Tingxue.

But he still didn't believe the fact that Jiang Tingxue left, thinking that Jiang Tingxue deliberately hid in the mansion and didn't come out, in order to avoid him. For this reason, he deliberately went to Jiangfu, but he still failed to cross the gate of Jiangfu as he wished, and was stopped by the slave guarding the door.

Uncle Jiang was shocked out of the house, and when he saw the person coming, he naturally didn't give him a good face, so he only replied briefly: "Miss left." And he lifted up his hand, and commanded his servants to bombard.

Yan Lingyu naturally didn't believe it, blocked Uncle Jiang's way, looked at Uncle Jiang's expression change, and said in a tentative tone: "Please also tell me, where did Tingxue go?" ”

"All the way north, traveled." Uncle Jiang frowned deeply, and his words did not contain a trace of warmth. He was very disgusted with this person, if it weren't for this ploppy skin entangled day by day, how could his young lady go away, and live a wandering life from then on, suffering from the wind and sun in the hot summer.

Yan Ling watched the other party's expression change, not like he was lying, so he didn't ask any more questions, turned around to himself, and swaggered away.

Walking through the bustling streets, he was secretly thinking in his heart, preparing to send a few people to the vicinity of Jiangfu to secretly observe and inquire to see if the housekeeper was deceiving him. If Jiang Tingxue really left Qiantang, then he would also know where she went. He thought, if Jiang Tingxue didn't have it, what would he mean by staying in this Qiantang.

A few days later, Yan Lingyang got the exact news from the people sent to investigate, Jiang Tingxue had really left, and a man was with him, and many people saw the two riding out of the north gate that day.

Of course, Jiang Tingxue and Gu Minluo deliberately took the north gate, and when they left the north gate, they were actually going east, not north. The two had already expected that Yan Lingyang would not give up and would definitely send someone to find out where she was, so they deliberately left a hand to mislead Yan Lingyang.

When Yan Lingyu heard that Jiang Tingxue was leaving with the same man, he was not calm for a moment. In the end, after some investigation by the people in the city guard's mansion, I learned that Jiang Tingxue had a cousin who was from the Central Plains and lived in Huizhou. He linked this with Jiang Tingxue's northward journey, and soon concluded that Jiang Tingxue must have gone to Huizhou.

Yanling didn't want to cheapen the man surnamed Gu, with his years of experience, he knew at a glance that the man's motives for Jiang Tingxue were bad, so he made a very decisive decision to rush to Huizhou.

Before leaving, Yan Lingyang did not forget his attendant who was still suffering from prison, and went to see the man with some good wine and food, and the two talked a lot, which can be described as a deep love between master and servant, and the attendant reminded Yanling to take care of himself on the road many times, and felt guilty for not being able to protect the safety of Yan Lingyang.

The tossing and turning in the middle of the night is not longing, but anxious, worrying that Gu Minluo will get the moon first near the water. In the early morning of the day, after saying goodbye to Yuan Wenling in a hurry, he finally embarked on the journey with two guards sent by Yuan Wenling.

To be able to send away the big Buddha, Yuan Wenling is something that cannot be sought. Yan Lingyang stayed in his mansion for more than two months, and this time was not less for Yan Lingyang to clean up the mess.

At this time, Lu Jingxing and Ling Xiao had been back in Lu Mansion for several days. Now that the turmoil in the rivers and lakes has been settled and peace has been restored, the people of Lufumen, who were recalled to the mansion, also left one after another after Lu Jingxing's return, and went to their original residence, and the huge Lufu has returned to its former deserted and peaceful state. At the same time, the people who were sent to find Lu Jingxing also received a message from the Lu Mansion, and Lu Ci was rushing back at this time.

Ling Xiao was dressed in a purple dress, sitting under the porch outside the dining room and reading a scroll. The breeze swept slowly, the hair on his forehead trembled slightly, and his face was still slightly haggard and colorless.

This time, she was already too seriously injured to be treated in time, and coupled with the bumps on the road, she fell completely ill in the carriage before she arrived at the house. After coming back, it took five or six days to recuperate. Although the sword wounds have begun to heal and scab over, the internal pain in the body still needs to be slowly recuperated. The rain that night had caused a lot of damage to her body after all, and it was difficult to recover for a while.

In the dining room, there were occasional wisps of light smoke wafting out of the door, and Lu Jingxing was busy alone inside, while raising a fire behind the stove and paying attention to the movement on the medicine stove. Seeing that Ling Xiao had a bad appetite these days, he wanted to make a bowl of green onion noodles for her. For this reason, he also deliberately drove away Yu Niang and ordered them to come over later to prepare dinner.

Ling Xiao glanced at the afternoon sun outside the corridor and put down the book he had finished reading. Still a little weak, she rested her elbows on the carved railing, propped her head, and closed her eyes shallowly.

In the past few months, it is rare for the two to have such a quiet time, not disturbed by external things, and without worries. Ling Xiao originally wanted to go into the dining room to help Lu Jingxing, but as soon as he entered, he was kicked out. She wanted to stay by his side, but when she had nothing to do, she asked Finch to bring a book. Now that the book is finished, her medicine has almost been boiled by him, and the strong smell of herbs is diffused everywhere in the air.

Ling Xiao fell asleep for a moment, and a clear voice floated from the dining room wrapped in light smoke, and sounded in her ears: "Xiao Xiao, the medicine is ready, come in and drink it later." ”

Broken hair fluttering, Ling Xiao woke up from a light dream, looked at the shadow cast by the eaves, his eyes gradually cleared, and replied to the door: "Got it." ”

Ling Xiao looked at the shadows on the ground for a moment, then got up and went to the door of the dining room.

Stepping into the room, I saw the long figure in front of the stove with his sleeves pulled up high, holding a rolling pin and fiddling with a snow-white thin dough cake, the water in the pot was half-boiled, and the mist was curling. On the table not far behind him, a small half bowl of brown decoction was still steaming, wisps dissipating in the air, and the smell of herbs was permeating.

Seeing such a quiet and warm scene, Ling Xiao's heart couldn't help but warm. This is the second time he has cooked noodles for her, and I am afraid that no one has done anything specifically for her in so many years.

Lu Jingxing heard the sound of gentle footsteps, and naturally turned his head to look, against the light, the purple shadow at the door was stunned, with an imperceptible light in his eyes. He hooked the corners of his lips suspiciously: "What's wrong." ”

"It's fine. Just thought of a question. Ling Xiao shook his head, his arms naturally drooped, and he walked over.

Lu Jingxing was curious, paused the movements in his hand, looked at the person who was gradually moving away from him, raised his eyebrows and asked, "What's the problem?" Let's hear it. ”

"You are used to me like this, I am afraid that one day, I will be pampered and proud." Ling Xiao looked up at him slightly, his voice was low, but his expression was serious.

When Lu Jingxing heard this, a gentle smile quickly climbed from his lips and teeth to the corners of his eyebrows. He thought it was such an important question that could distract her, but he never thought that it would be so.

The smile faded, he frowned slightly, pretending to be pensive: "Well...... this is a question, what should I do?" If there is such a day, I will make up for my mistakes, and Xiao Xiao will not have to worry about it at all. ”

Ling Xiao knew that he was deliberately making fun of her like this, so he glanced at him slightly, stopped answering, turned around and walked to the back of the stove, adding some firewood to the fading stove. The man on the other side buried his head again, busy with the work in his hands, and finally cut the large pancake into strips and sprinkled it all into the pot of boiling water.

The brown decoction was already warm, Ling Xiao stood sideways at the table and carefully took it from Lu Jingxing's hand, and drank it very simply, then frowned slightly: "It's so bitter." ”

"Isn't that better?" As he spoke, Lu Jingxing lowered his head and kissed the medicine traces on her thin lips, and before she could react, he pried open her slightly closed teeth, and the trace of bitterness remaining in her mouth was on the tip of his tongue.

At this moment, Ling Xiao's eyes were a little straight, and when she came back to her senses, the initiative was firmly in his hands, and she couldn't help but respond. This man was always doing things that she didn't expect when she was unprepared, and she couldn't do anything about him.

The sound of crackling firewood burning in the stove completely pulled Ling Xiao back to reality, she gently pushed him away, her cheeks were hot, put down the bowl in her hand, and pointed to the stove with her eyes: "Look at the fire, don't let the two of us burn the kitchen." ”

"How?" Lu Jingxing said two simple words, looking at her cheeks that were quietly flushed, and the smile on the corner of her mouth was extremely deep.

There was already a faint fragrance of noodles wafting out of the pot, Ling Xiao ignored him, turned around and walked towards the mouth of the stove, afraid that the stove fire would not take care of it, something really happened.
