Chapter 313: Ying'er's thoughts
Hearing Cao Lin ask about Ji Yanning's itinerary, Ying'er actually didn't know it.
She said: "I don't know how Miss plans yet, anyway, where Miss goes, I'll follow." ”
When Cao Lin heard her say this, his eyes moved slightly, and he thought for a long time before he slowly spoke: "Miss Ying'er, can I trouble you with something?"
Ying'er was a little puzzled: "Brother Cao, is there anything you can need my help with?"
She's just a little maid, and there's only so much she can do.
Cao Lin looked at Ying'er and said, "Actually...... I want to leave with you, most of the people who came here from your eldest lady have returned, so you should need some guards to accompany you, right? Please ask Miss Ying'er to help me, can I follow Miss Ji as well. ”
He said it very sincerely, and his eyes were fixed on Ying'er, and it could be seen that he really wanted to be Ji Yanning's guard.
Ying'er frowned slightly and thought about it, the eldest lady's guards were all personally selected by herself, and she didn't know if she could bring another Cao Lin.
She asked, "Do you want to be the eldest lady's bodyguard so much?"
Cao Lin looked at Ying'er, lowered his head and said with some embarrassment: "Actually, I want to be with Miss Ying'er more." ”
Hearing Cao Lin's words, Ying'er's face turned red in an instant, and she fiddled with her handkerchief with both hands, not knowing what to say for a while.
Cao Lin said: "If you are unwilling...... Forget it, in fact, it's good that I've always taken it with the Hou Mansion in Dingbei. ”
Ying'er said: "I can't be the master of this matter, but I'll help you ask the eldest lady, if she doesn't agree, I can't do it." ”
When Cao Lin heard Ying'er's words, he laughed and said, "More Ying'er girls." ”
Ying'er said: "You go back, if there is news, I will tell you." ”
Cao Lin nodded, looking happy, as if the matter had been settled, and then turned to leave.
Looking at Cao Lin's back as she left with a little excitement, she lowered her eyes and chuckled.
She walked back towards Ji Yanning's courtyard, and saw that Ji Yanning was still looking at the map intently, she stepped forward and silently walked to the table to study ink for Ji Yanning.
Ji Yanning put down the drawings in his hand, looked at Ying'er, saw that her face was still a little crimson, raised her eyebrows slightly, and asked, "Who are you going to meet?"
When Ying'er heard Ji Yanning's question, her hand holding the grinding block suddenly paused.
She said: "It's a guard in the house, and during the time that the young lady didn't come back, he always sent me news. ”
Ji Yanning asked, "Shaobei's guards?"
Ying'er thought for a while and said, "It's not a guard, he's on duty outside the Hou Ye's courtyard." ”
Ji Yanning nodded slightly, but didn't say anything else.
Ying'er said: "Miss, it's better to let him follow us, anyway, almost all of the people before us have gone back." ”
Ji Yanning leaned closer: "What, you like him? Well, you have indeed reached the age where you can get married, but I was negligent." ”
"Miss, that's not what the slave meant!" Ying'er's face turned red all of a sudden, and she said, "The slave just thinks that Miss you also need to add a few guards, so it's better to even be one of them." ”
Ji Yanning's eyes flashed slightly, and he said, "Actually, there are more than a dozen guards from Yuan Wu and them, I think it's enough." He is a person from Shaobei, if he wants to be my guard, he should also mention it to Shaobei, why did he come to you?"
Ying'er lowered her eyes and said, "If Miss agrees, if you want to come to Master Hou, you will naturally not disagree." ”
Ji Yanning pondered for a while, looking at Ying'er like this, it seemed that he really had a mind about that guard.
She said: "It's better to do this, you let him go to Yuan Wu, since you want to be my guard, martial arts must be passable." ”
Ying'er nodded and said, "The slave knows." ”
Ji Yanning chuckled and asked her to inform Cao Lin.
Ying'er saluted Ji Yanning, and then retreated into the room.
Ji Yanning watched Ying'er leave, but the smile in the corner of her eyes faded.
Ying'er trotted out of the yard, but almost bumped into Xiao Shaobei head-on, immediately stopped, and then saluted Xiao Shaobei: "The slave has seen Master Hou." ”
Xiao Shaobei looked at Ying'er, whispered a word expressionlessly, and walked into Ji Yanning's room.
"Yan Ning. Xiao Shaobei walked in and saw Ji Yanning, his face finally eased.
Ji Yanning raised his eyes and asked, "Have you arranged all the adults who sent the envoy?"
Xiao Shaobei nodded and said, "After walking for so long, they don't have any thoughts, and they are resting." ”
Ji Yanning said: "Yes." ”
Some of those imperial historians are old, so they naturally have to rest.
Xiao Shaobei looked at the two maids in the room and told them to go down.
The two maids saluted and exited the room.
"I've already opened the yellow talismans for the things you brought back last time. Xiao Shaobei said, "I specially went to consult a master, this practice of burying corpses in different places is said to be cursing, but as long as the bones are found one by one and buried together, it will be fine." ”
Ji Yanning nodded and said, "So I'll leave for Laizhou in two days." ”
"Why don't I go with you. Xiao Shaobei said, "You are a girl's family, although you have guards, but there is always some trouble. ”
Ji Yanning shook his head and looked at Xiao Shaobei: "Don't forget, Laizhou is the fief of the King of Lijun, if you appear in Laizhou, I am afraid that the emperor and the King of Lijun will be vigilant." ”
Speaking of King Lijun, Xiao Shaobei's face darkened slightly.
Among the people who helped Rong Liang seize the throne back then, this King of Lijun made great contributions.
When Xiao Shaobei was in Chang'an, Ji Yanning attacked several Rong Ling's henchmen, and later in Yingzhou City, Ding Zhen was removed, if Xiao Shaobei appeared in Laizhou again, I was afraid that the emperor and the king of Lijun would not be able to sit still.
Xiao Shaobei also knows the relationship, his identity is too conspicuous, if he goes with Ji Yanning, he is afraid that King Lijun will keep an eye on him all the time.
He said, "What about Rong Che?"
Ji Yanning said: "As an envoy to Yan State, he naturally has to go back on time to give the emperor a mission, and I don't plan to let him go to Laizhou with me."
Xiao Shaobei said: "Then I'll arrange more guards for you." ”
Ji Yanning shook his head and said, "It's enough to have Yuan Wu here, too much is even more dazzling." ”
She is a girl's family, she looks harmless to humans and animals, and she has guards, so she shouldn't be targeted by powerful people.
Yuan Wu's martial arts are not low, and bringing more than a dozen of them is more secure than bringing hundreds of ordinary guards.
Xiao Shaobei saw that she looked like she had planned it a long time ago, but he didn't want to disrupt her plan.
He asked, "After coming out of Laizhou, did you go directly south to the southwest?"
Ji Yanning bowed his head and said: "The opportunity to come out is not easy to come by, if I go back to Chang'an, I am afraid that Liu Mu will not easily agree to let me come out again, even if I agree, I will arrange a lot of guards, it is inconvenient to act." ”
Liu Mu and An Shi are really good to her, so they are also worried about her safety.
But she is different from other young ladies of the family, and she doesn't need so many guards who may not be loyal to her.
She is not the real Ji Yanning, if Liu Mu finds out that something is wrong, it is estimated that it will be difficult to explain it to them.
So this matter has to be done in one go, and these bones are directly brought back.
Xiao Shaobei said: "In short, you act carefully, as for King Lijun, if you are not sure, don't act lightly." ”
He knew very well how heavy Ji Yanning's revenge was, she passed through Laizhou, as long as she had the opportunity, she would definitely not let go of King Lijun.
Laizhou is the fief of King Lijun, which is equivalent to the local soil emperor, and it is not an easy thing to deal with him.
Ji Yanning bowed her head, if she wasn't prepared, she would definitely not make a move easily.
Just let her let go of King Lijun like this, I'm afraid she won't be able to do it.
The enemy is right in front of her eyes, and she can't wait to feast on him and break him into pieces!
Let them also taste the pain experienced by the Ying family and the Lou family that day.
Ying'er came out of Ji Yanning's yard and went straight to find Cao Lin.
Hearing that he was going to go to Yuan Wu to try his skills, Cao Lin paused slightly, and his eyes were a little embarrassed.
Ying'er said: "Don't be nervous, Brother Yuan's martial arts are high, there are few who can compare to him, even if you lose, it doesn't matter, you can be the Hou Ye's guard, and it won't be too bad to think about it." ”
Cao Lin nodded, and said: "Is it quite demanding for Miss Ji to choose guards, I looked at the guards around her, and many of them were those who followed the old marquis before." ”
Ying'er said: "My young lady doesn't know martial arts, so naturally she can only choose some guards with high martial arts skills to protect herself." ”
The young lady has been experiencing a lot of dangers, so it is natural to ensure her safety.
Cao Lin's eyes flashed slightly, nodded seriously, and said, "Okay, I'll do my best." ”
Ying'er chuckled, and then took him to find Yuan Wu together.
Listening to their intentions, Yuan Wu looked at Cao Lin in front of him, looked at Ying'er again, and somewhat understood what was going on.
Yuan Wu said: "Let's start, if you can go through five moves under me, I will pass this level." ”
Cao Lin saluted Yuan Wu with a fist, then pulled out the sword in his hand and stabbed Yuan Wu directly.
Yuan Wu did not bring a weapon, he leaned back to dodge Cao Lin's attack, and then supported the ground with one foot, and kicked Cao Lin's calf with the other foot, causing him to fall forward! At this time, Yuan Wu turned lightly and slapped him on the back.
only heard Cao Lin's muffled sound, and the whole person was about to fall to the ground, he immediately used the sword in his hand as a support, so he didn't let himself fall, but Yuan Wu attacked again and punched him in the chest.
Cao Lin was slightly startled, subconsciously leaned back and turned over, and jumped a step in the air, only then did he dodge Yuan Wu's attack.
Seeing that Cao Lin's subconscious movements were so agile, Yuan Wu narrowed his eyes slightly and attacked quickly again.
"Brother Cao, be careful!" Ying'er said to Cao Lin.
In the next few moves, although Cao Lin dodged a lot, he was also beaten a lot by Yuan Wu.
