The carriage creaked and walked, months passed, the surrounding scenery gradually became beautiful, the cold winter was gone, spring returned to the earth, and the grass grew and the warbler flew in February.

Qing Ning leaned on Xiao Jingyi's shoulder, he was driving the car, the journey was bumpy, and it didn't take long to see the smoke from a distance, as well as the Wanghuo Tower.

That's Huaishui City, right? Jiangnan is the richest city, she has long heard of Jiangnan, and many of her Abu's delicate concubines are from Jiangnan.

In spring, I saw that there were many sedan chairs on the road, and there were all the ladies who came out to go out. Qing Ning was in a happy mood, looking at the paper kites flying in the sky and the children running on the ground, everything seemed to become vivid.

Soon they came to the city gate, and there were a group of officers and soldiers guarding outside, screening the passing crowd.

"I wonder if there's a wanted warrant for me here?" Qing Ning asked Xiao Jingyi on the side with some concern.

"I'll take a look." Xiao Jingyi jumped out of the car and walked to the city gate.

Qing Ning sat outside the sedan chair, wearing a hat, her white veil hanging down, and she couldn't see her face clearly.

The sedan chair on the side walked by, and a female dependent, dressed in blue and orange clothes, wearing a hat, slowly walked down from the sedan chair, with a slender figure and fluttering clothes.

"Girl, Young Master Qi went to visit the kiln again, and was beaten severely by his old man, and now he is still lying on the couch!" The girl rushed to speak.

Qing Ning glanced at the past curiously, and saw that the woman was not annoyed, but just walked slowly and said lightly, "Which one?" ”

"Piano workshop, it is said that the women there do not sell their bodies, but when they meet some nobles, they can buy them at a high price." The girl said.

"That's it again, find someone to give me some silver, and clean it up for me!" The woman's tone was a little displeased, and she said with a lot of money.

Qing Ning thought to herself, good guy, with her demeanor back then.

——

Not long after, Xiao Jingyi came back, saying that there was no wanted warrant on the city wall, and then jumped into the carriage and prepared to enter the city.

Qingning saw the bustling crowd on the road, it was noon now, there were many city gates in the pudding, and there were dignitaries and nobles who came out of the city one after another, and it must be very lively to come to the suburbs.

"Take out the household registration." The officer and soldier asked.

Xiao Jingyi gave them the household registration to check them one by one, and quietly handed them the fine silver, and then let them go.

"It's actually a distant relative of the Yun family, and the old ministers of the Yu Dynasty are still dead?" The officers and soldiers behind him had heard of the Yun family, and they were puzzled.

Qing Ning glanced at Xiao Jingyi, only to see that his expression was normal.

As soon as the carriage entered the city, I saw a lot of traffic inside, and the crowded crowd passed by. From a distance, there are continuous pavilions and pavilions, which are scattered. When passing by a household, there is a gold-lacquered plaque hanging on it, which reads: Qi Mansion.

"Wow......" The horse's hooves stepped on the stone road, flying and obeying.

"You said that the Mei family......"

"Don't you know there's a new story in the storyteller today?"

"How high is that tax?"

"Family-run ......"

"Hey! Clever ......"

“……”

Qing Ning listened to the squeaky conversation of pedestrians on the road, the surroundings were very noisy, and there were all kinds of fragrances coming to his nose.

She tugged at Xiao Jingyi's sleeve and salivated as she looked at the bun shop on the side of the road.

"Stay here, I'll buy it." Xiao Jingyi said.

Qing Ning watched him walk away, and when the women on the side met him, they all looked sideways and stood still, as if they were stupid.

"It's even more handsome than the little young master of the Qi family?!" The woman was surprised.

"Look at the satin he wears, his identity should be extraordinary."

"Just ask Brother Zhao and you will know that he is on duty at the city gate today."

Not long after, I saw that the woman I saw first was coming in a sedan chair, and her sedan chair stopped next to Qingning, and the woman was helped down by the maid.

Qing Ning glanced in the direction she was walking, there was a piano shop in front of her, and thought to herself, she stared over there with some curiosity to see what the woman could do.

Li Fuqiao took a few small people and let them go in first, but the piano workshop found many people to stop them.

"What do you mean?!" Li Fuqiao looked at the old bustard and gave a cold look.

"Miss, you are a beautiful lady, this place is not for you to come." The old bustard shook the fan and said with a smile.

Li Fuqiao stretched out her hand to call the little girl, and the little girl hurriedly handed over the silver ticket, she pulled out a few silver tickets from two papers, and the old bustard's face in front of her changed instantly.

"I don't know who is in charge? There is only a piano workshop, and my Li family can still afford it. Li Fuqiao said.

The old bustard suddenly smiled, and layers of wrinkles appeared on his face, "The Li family, I really can't move this piano workshop." ”

Li Fuqiao's expression became serious, "You can accept this money, I won't come to find the young master of the Qi family." ”

The bustard happily accepted the silver ticket and let her in.

Qing Ning watched the woman walk in with a majestic voice, and wanted to know the follow-up development, only to see Xiao Jingyi buy the bun and walk back.

"Where are you sleeping out tonight?" Qing Ning asked him.

"Find an inn first, and then look for a house here." Xiao Jingyi jumped into the carriage and looked for a local inn.

The scenery in the south of the Yangtze River is beautiful, the mountains in the distance are green and inky, the weeping willows are still clinging, and the birds suddenly jump down from the trees and rush back to the sky.

There are many shops in the market, and the teahouse is full of puddings, most of them are old people, drinking tea while listening to the storyteller tell interesting stories.

The two came to an inn, and the shopkeeper was very enthusiastic, so he asked Xiao Er to pack their luggage for them and carry them to the wing, and led the horse to feed the grass.

Qing Ning walked into the room and saw a hexagonal window, in front of which there was a high table, on which was placed a blue and white porcelain vase, and a peach branch was inserted.

She was very satisfied, she ran all the way for a long time, and finally she could rest, she quickly undressed and went to the bed, just wanting to sleep well.

"Don't eat something?" Xiao Jingyi sat on the couch and asked her.

"I'm tired, let's rest for a while." She said.

Xiao Jingyi straightened the hair on her face, and watched her fall asleep after a while, which really tired her.

The two of them slept in their clothes, and before they knew it, the sun was slanting through the window and reflected on the wall.

——

Following.

Qing Ning sat in the pavilion under the tree with a hat, looking at the piano shop from a distance, and yesterday the woman led a group of people into it again.

Li Fuqiao heard that Qi Yulin had stayed in the piano shop last night, and she was mad when she heard the news, and hurriedly brought someone to arrest him.

With a "bang", Li Fuqiao kicked the door open.

Qi Yulin slept on the couch with a smell of alcohol, and a delicate woman was still in his arms.

"You're crazy!!!" Li Fuqiao shouted, her eyes widened, and her face was incredible, but in an instant, a few tears fell from her eyes, and she gritted her teeth fiercely and endured it.

Qi Yulin woke up in a daze, and when he saw Li Fuqiao, he quickly pulled the quilt, and shouted, "What are you doing in my room!" ”

"In your room? Look at it! Li Fuqiao's eyes were red, and she turned around angrily and left.

Qi Yulin glanced around, the woman on the side had already woken up, and she looked at Qi Yulin with a shyly expression.

It's terrible! Qi Yulin glanced at the naked woman beside him lightly, put on his clothes and left in an orderly manner.
