Chapter 4: Hiding in a restaurant
Although it was only ten taels of silver, Mu Qing still sneaked out of the Mu Mansion.
"Miss, have you really thought about it?" On the street, Xin'er asked uncomfortably that running away from marriage is really not a trivial matter.
"Of course, I have never known the third prince in my life, so naturally I don't want to marry him. What's more, in this era, there are so many opportunities to make a fortune waiting for your young lady, how can I delay making money because of getting married! Mu Qing weighed the purse in his hand and spoke with pride.
Xin'er frowned and looked at her own miss, although what Miss said about the opportunity to make a fortune, she heard it in a fog, but the third prince may not live long at all, and it is understandable that Miss is unwilling to marry.
"Miss, don't worry, no matter what you do, the slave will definitely follow behind you, Miss."
Mu Qing hooked her lips and smiled, although Xin'er is a girl who is occasionally a little silly, but she is indeed loyal.
"Miss, when are you going to run away from the marriage?" Xin'er lowered her voice, "If the master comes back, it may be difficult to sneak out again." ”
"When? Now, of course, otherwise what do you think I'm doing now? ”
"Now?" Xin'er was stunned, "But Miss, we didn't bring anything!" ”
"Do you think there is anything of value in our yard besides these ten taels of silver?"
Xin'er: ......
That's the same thing......
"Miss, let's just leave, in case the eldest lady finds out......"
"Even if they find out, they'll just pretend they don't know." Mu Qing raised his eyebrows.
After all, they naturally don't want to watch themselves get married, and the only thing they need to guard against is that if the marriage escape fails, they can't let them seize the opportunity to punish themselves.
"That ......" Xin'er was just about to continue speaking, but when she saw a carriage coming not far in front of her, the whole person instantly froze, "Little, miss, that seems to be the master's carriage!" ”
"What?" Mu Qing looked over, "Are you sure?" ”
Xin'er nodded stiffly, "The coachman is from our house, and it is indeed ......"
Before Xin'er finished speaking, he was pulled by Mu Qing and hid in the restaurant on the side. It's just that what they didn't expect was that the carriage stopped at the door of the restaurant so coincidentally.
"Miss, the master won't have discovered us." Xin'er's voice trembled a little.
Mu Qing quickly looked around, there were not many diners on the first floor now, and there was no place to hide, so he immediately dragged his heart up to the second floor.
"This girl, have you booked a private room?" The shopkeeper looked at Mu Qing and asked politely.
"Anything else?" Mu Qing glanced at the staircase, the figure that had already walked up, and hurriedly asked.
"This is no longer ...... today"
Before the shopkeeper finished speaking, seeing that it was too late, Mu Qing could only drag his heart, and immediately ran to the far right room, pushed the door and hid in, and at the moment of hiding in, Mu Chenghai also happened to go upstairs.
opened the door slightly, and watched Mu Chenghai walk towards the private room on the other side, Mu Qing was sure that the other party should not have found himself.
Since the decree of marriage was issued, in order to prevent any accidents, Mu Chenghai ordered her to stay in the mansion. Although she didn't bring anything with her now, even if she was bumped into by Mu Chenghai, the other party should not guess that she was running away from marriage, but if she was brought back by Mu Chenghai, it would be difficult to come out again when the time came.
Mu Qing breathed a sigh of relief, and then turned around and looked at the private room he was in.
Elegant and quiet, the layout is very stylish, the windows are open, the wind enters the room, and the bamboo curtains are slightly shaking.
The most important thing, though...... At this moment, at the table near the windowsill, two men were sitting, both of them looking at her.
Unexpectedly, there was someone inside, and Mu Qing was instantly embarrassed.
"Well, I'm sorry, I was in a hurry, that's why I broke in."
After a moment of silence, a man in a blue robe burst out laughing.
"Huh...... This suddenly broke into a beautiful girl, which made us a little unresponsive. ”
Mu Qing looked at the other party intently, his eyebrows were delicate, his face was handsome, and with that little smile, he looked like a beautiful son.
Moving his gaze to the man sitting beside him, Mu Qing couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.
Dressed in white, detached from the dust, with exquisite facial features, like a knife and axe carving, you can't find a flaw, at a glance, it is really amazing. It's just that although the other party's complexion is fair, this whiteness seems to be a little sick.
Could it be that the other party is not in good health?
Mu Qing was stunned for a moment, quickly came back to his senses, and apologized again: "Two, I'm really sorry, I'm sorry, let's leave." ”
"This young lady looks like she's hiding from someone, since it's to dodge, it's better to stay a little longer, if you go out now and are discovered, I'm afraid that you just bothered and collided, and it won't make sense." The man in blue smiled again.
Mu Qing hesitated for a moment, said something abrupt, and then walked to the window and looked outside.
The car was still there, and the driver was still at the door.
"Does this restaurant have a back door?"
"Not really." The man in blue shook his head and followed Mu Qing's line of sight to look at the carriage outside.
"If the girl doesn't want to be seen by the coachman, it's better not to go out now."
"Thanks for the reminder." Mu Qing coughed awkwardly, and couldn't help but glance at the man in white, "Excuse me." ”
The man in white raised his eyes and glanced at Mu Qing, and then glanced out the window, his eyes dimming slightly.
"If I haven't seen it, the sign of the carriage below seems to be from the Hubu Shangshu Mansion, this young lady is hiding, could it be the Hubu Shangshu?"
Mu Qing was stunned suddenly, he didn't expect the other party to guess it.
And Xin'er was panicked and embarrassed from the moment she came in, and when she heard this, she became even more dispossessed, and couldn't help but call: "Miss......"
When the man in blue heard this, he became more and more interested, "Hiding in the Ministry of Households? If I'm not mistaken, this young lady of the household is just ...... The three princes have made a marriage contract! ”
"Who are you?" Mu Qing frowned, the two people in front of him looked very good, and they could recognize the carriage of the household at once, and their identities were not simple.
The man in white took a sip of tea and didn't speak, but the man in blue raised his eyebrows, "The two of us are candidates for this year's scientific examination, and we have been visiting everywhere recently, so these things are naturally clear." ”
Mu Qing thought about it and nodded, if it was a test for a scientific expedition, it would not be strange to recognize the carriage of the household.
"Now that we have introduced our identities, dare to ask, is the girl the lady of the Hubu Shangshu Mansion?"
