When I woke up again, it was dusk.

The maids brought dinner, and Feng Qingfang ate a little, but he didn't have much appetite, so he called someone to come in and remove the dishes and chopsticks.

After cleaning up the dishes and chopsticks, the maid suddenly came over and said in a low voice, "Young master, are you okay?" ”

At this time, it was almost dark, there was no light in the house, and he couldn't see the other party's face clearly, Feng stared at the other party for a while, and replied, "I'm fine, do you have something?" She wasn't sure if the other party was friend or foe, so she could only answer perfunctorily.

"A few days ago, a girl surnamed Qin came to the inn with your token to find Brother Li, saying that you were arrested, we guessed that you would be taken to Luojiabao, and sure enough, I didn't expect that it was not Mr. Wan who arrested you, but Sanssoucian."

Hearing her say this, Feng Qingfang knew that the other party was his own, and subconsciously glanced out of the door, and said in a low voice: "So, no one knows about Wan Ye's collusion with Sanssoucian?" ”

"Except for a few of his henchmen, no one knew about it before." The maid said, sighing, "Everyone thinks that the castle lord has really passed on the position of the castle lord to the head of Wan, if it weren't for Miss Qin, I still don't know that his old man was forced and has long since disappeared." ”

"Alas, it was my carelessness, and now that it has fallen into the hands of Sanssoucian, it is too difficult to get out." Feng blamed himself lightly.

The maid took a step closer and said, "Don't worry, young master, we will tell the truth to the other people, overthrow the head of Wan together, and let you temporarily take the position of the lord of the castle, this is Luojia Fort, no matter how arrogant the young master of the worry-free gate is, he will not dare to touch you." ”

"Don't do it yet." Feng Qingfang hurriedly stopped, "Wan Ye has been in power for almost a month, and he has been buying people's hearts in private, many people have been inclined to him, and they will definitely not believe this kind of thing, in this way, not only will they not be able to successfully fight back, but it will make Wan Ye vigilant, and find out that you are my people and kill them." ”

The maid bowed her head slightly, feeling that this made sense, and then said bitterly: "But there are less than twenty of us, if we don't shake the position of Chief Wan by creating chaos, we will definitely have no chance of winning against him head-on." ”

When Feng Qingfang formed this team, he selected some people who were thin and small, agile, and very sloppy, they belonged to very inconspicuous people who were not valued in the door, they were good at collecting and stealing intelligence and stealing, and the biggest shortcoming was that martial arts were very bad.

It was a fantasy that such a group of scumbags would rescue her by force, but there was no other way for her to ask Qin Luo to contact them at the beginning.

Now that Jiang Mingche is here, Feng Qingfang is sure that his little life can be saved, so there is no need to take such a big risk.

"Then hold your ground first, the first thing now is to find the castle master, you inform the others to find a way to leave Locke's Fort, all go out to find someone, and after finding him, take him to a safe place to protect him, and I will find a way to contact you after I get out."

The maid hesitated for a moment, nodded and said, "Yes, does the young master have any other orders?" ”

"Tell Qin Luo that I will go south to Lanzhou City tomorrow, and Jiang Mingche's people will also accompany me, so that they can follow carefully and not be discovered."

"Okay, my subordinates know, young master take care." After the maid finished speaking, she went out with the dishes and chopsticks.

Feng turned his head to look out the window, staring at the vast night and sighed silently.

In the early morning of the next day, Feng Qingfang was forced to follow Jiang Mingche out of Luojiabao and go all the way south, arriving at the city of Luzhou eight days later.

Because it was late when he entered the city, Jiang Mingche did not go to the Lin family to bother, and planned to visit again early tomorrow morning, so the two came to Yuhong Restaurant to settle down.

On the surface, Yuhong Restaurant is just an ordinary restaurant for eating and lodging, but in fact it is a stronghold of Sanssouci in Lanzhou, which is currently managed by Shen Li.

Since the separation in the sleeve red village, Feng Qingmad and Shen Li have never met again, and it has been several years now, and now the reunion of old friends is joyful, which makes Feng Qingmad's originally depressed mood suddenly feel a lot better.

At night, the two sat in the courtyard drinking tea and chatting.

"Brother Shen, I haven't seen you for so many years, why are you still in Wuzhou, I thought you would have gone back to Wuzhou a long time ago, after all, you are the hall master, you should be in the headquarters, why are you always nesting here?"

Shen Li was stunned and said: "The people of Lanzhou are outstanding, the mountains and rivers are beautiful, suitable for long-term residence, and there are a lot of affairs here that I need to take care of, and this place is not too far from Wuzhou, if there is any major event, you can rush back at any time without delay." ”

"Oh, so I thought you were thinking about someone here."

Feng Qing laughed a little badly.

Shen Li laughed dryly: "Girl, don't joke about it, where do I have anyone to worry about?" ”

"My cousin Lin Yunshu." Feng Qingfang didn't beat around the bush at all, and exposed other people's hearts when he opened his mouth, causing Shen Li to almost choke on a mouthful of tea.

"Miss Lin? Ahem, no, although we are in the same city in Lanzhou, we haven't seen each other for a few years, and I don't think about her anymore, girl, don't make this kind of joke again, let outsiders hear it, it will ruin Miss Lin's reputation. ”

Looking at his nervous appearance, Feng Qingfang knew that he had not forgotten Lin Yunshu at all, but since he and Lin Yunshu had no longer met, she didn't need to worry.

"There should be a lot of beauties on your rivers and lakes, right? Why are you so old that you haven't found a partner yet? Feng Qing quipped.

Shen Li glanced at her and said with a smile: "I am busy with affairs, how can I have time to find a partner?" Besides, isn't it nice to be alone? Why do you want to marry and start a family? ”

"You're pretty open-minded." Feng couldn't help but look at him with admiration, "If you meet someone who is not satisfied, it is better to be a bachelor for the rest of your life." ”

"Listening to your tone, it seems to be very resentful?" Shen Li glanced around and asked in a low voice, "Are you talking about you and the young master?" ”

"Sort of." Feng Qing sighed wildly, if she was allowed to marry Jiang Mingche, she might as well marry and become a nun.

"Actually, the young master treats you too well to be better, I have known him for so many years, and I have never seen him so gentle and patient with anyone like you." Shen Liwen said, "I really don't understand, why do you always try to escape?" ”

"He treats me well, I admit it, and I appreciate him, but that doesn't mean I have to like him."

"But I heard that you eloped with him before, isn't that because you like it?"

Feng Qing lowered his eyes and sighed: "It was a long time ago, I did like him in the past, but then something happened, with the passage of time, this feeling was gradually worn out, and now there is nothing left, I can not hate him, and even treat him as a friend, but it is impossible to be with him." ”

Hearing this, Shen Li nodded in understanding.

"The young master is a person who is infatuated to stubbornness, if you want him to cut off the love thread, I'm afraid it will be more difficult than ascending to the sky."

"Who's to say it isn't? I've learned this for a long time. Every word in Feng Qing's crazy words expressed her helplessness.

The two talked for a long time, and only went back to their rooms to rest until late at night.

Feng yawned wildly, pushed open the door and was about to enter, when Jiang Mingche next door suddenly opened the door and came out, staring at her with deep eyes.

"You and Shen Li seem to be quite close, I don't know when you have such a deep friendship?"

His tone was not very kind, but he was afraid that he was too careful, so as not to cause trouble to Shen Li, Feng put on a dismissive attitude, and said: "It's not a deep friendship, it's just that when I was in Lanzhou before, I was taken care of by him and met a few times, but I didn't know each other, and I didn't know the word 'close' you said at all." ”

"Really?" Jiang Mingche looked at her with a smile, his eyes flashing slightly, "Since you are not familiar, why do you talk and laugh, as if you have been friends for many years?" ”

"Didn't you?" Feng Qingfang began to pretend to be stupid, "I'm a familiar person, as long as I'm not a hateful person, I can talk and laugh with anyone, and I don't necessarily have to be close." ”

These words made Jiang Mingche's face completely blacken, because she would never smile so happily in front of him, which means that he is among the people she hates?

Feng Qingfang didn't notice the change in his expression, and went straight into the room.

"I'm going to sleep, so you should rest early."

Then the door closed with a "bang", leaving Jiang Mingche standing alone in the dark.

Jiang Mingche was so angry that he almost hit the wall, this girl is really not angry with him, he won't be finished!

Next.

Early in the morning, before dawn, Feng Qingfang was woken up by a loud knock on the door, got up in a daze, opened the door and looked, and what greeted him was Jiang Mingche's bright smiling face.

"It's still dark, why are you knocking on the door?"

"I said that I would go to the Lin family today, I am the first time to come to the door, and I have to go to the street to pick up some gifts, so I have to go out early."

"Trouble!" Feng was so irritable that she didn't want to go to the Lin family in the first place, let alone take Jiang Mingche with her, but she was forced by him and had to follow, now it's good, she can't even sleep well, it's really hateful!

After washing up and using the breakfast again, Feng followed him to the street, and when he picked out the gifts, it was already an hour later.

Followed by four entourages, a group of six people arrived at the Lin Mansion.

Before entering the door, Feng Qingfang pulled Jiang Mingche aside and whispered: "After meeting the Lin family, you claim to be a businessman from other places, don't reveal your true identity, act like a little bit, if they know that you are from the rivers and lakes, you will definitely be blasted out, do you understand?" ”

Jiang Mingche hooked his lips and said, "Okay, I listen to you, it seems that you still care about what these relatives think of me." ”

"You're wrong, I just don't want the elders to know that I'm dealing with people in the rivers and lakes, so they are worried." Feng Qing snorted wildly, turned his head and walked inside.

After the report of the subordinates, the first person to come out to entertain the guests was the eldest lady Lu.

"Frivolous, I haven't seen you for a long time, let my aunt take a look." Lu Shi smiled and pulled Feng to look up and down frantically, "Why do you seem to have lost weight?" It's still a little darker, and you've been running around again lately, haven't you? ”

The Lin family basically knew that Feng Qingmad was a person who loved to run outside, so he was used to it, and the Lu family didn't think it was unusual, but he just persuaded hard: "You are a girl's family, and you are a beautiful girl, it's not good to be crazy outside every day, you still need to be reserved, if you let outsiders know, it will be difficult to find your mother-in-law's family." ”

Feng smiled wildly: "The people in the capital have long known my virtue, so those young talents are all hiding from me, otherwise why haven't I been married yet?" ”

"You girl, you're kidding me again, aren't you?" Lu Shi smiled and shook his head, his eyes inadvertently looked behind her, only to find that there was still a young man with a lofty weapon.

"This is ......"

Jiang Mingche immediately stepped forward, saluted the Lu family, and said with a smile: "Meet Mrs. Lin, the junior is surnamed Jiang, and the single name is a strategy, and he is a frivolous friend." ”

"Frivolous friends?" Lu Shi glanced at Feng Qingyi and smiled, "Qimad has never brought friends of the opposite sex here, your relationship with her should be unusual, right?" Looking at the conversation and dressing, I think he is also the son of a big family in the capital? ”

"He's ......"

Feng Qingfang was just about to speak, Jiang Mingche preemptively said: "My father serves in the household department, and his official position and title are not high, so he can barely be regarded as a big family, but it is still far from the Guogong Mansion. ”

"Childe is humble."

"yes, you're too modest!" Feng Qingfang said with the corners of his mouth twitching, and deliberately added an accent to the word "modesty".

Is his father still in the household department? The official title is not high? Please, you are an underworld family, which title do you have?

Lu Shi glanced at Feng Qingyan and Jiang Mingche again, and felt more and more that these two were a good match.

"I've already asked the old lady to inform her, and she must be in a hurry to see you now, so I'll take you there."

"Okay, that, Jiang Gongzi, you can stay here first." This situation is like taking her boyfriend home to meet her parents, Feng Qingfang doesn't want the old lady to see Jiang Mingche.

Jiang Mingche has always been a man, and the first time it was inconvenient to go to the backyard, Lu Shi smiled and said: "Childe sits first, or you can walk around, just like in your own home, don't be restrained." ”

"Yes, thank you, Lady Lin." Jiang Mingche made a gesture very politely and sent the two out.

Feng glanced back at him lightly, and didn't see that the sadness was even stronger, it seemed that the Lu family liked this so-called prince of the capital quite much, in case she said good things for him in front of the old lady and others, she was really going crazy.

"Uncle, I heard that my mother is going to marry Mencius? I don't know if it's true or not? ”

Lu Shi was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile: "Of course it's true, the wedding date is on the sixteenth of this month, I thought your mother had already informed you, isn't this for this matter?" ”

"It's not." Feng shook her head wildly and replied, if she wanted to say yes, she would definitely have to show up at the wedding, "My mother may have been too busy to forget to inform me, right?" I'm here to visit my grandmother and aunt, and I won't go to my mother's wedding. ”

"Aunt can understand your feelings," Lu patted the back of her hand and sighed lightly, "If you don't want to go, don't go, so as not to feel uncomfortable." ”

"Oh, I forgot to tell you, your mother has been living in the Lin family during this time, and she may be in the old lady's yard now, so just bear with it if you are unhappy, don't make it difficult for the old lady."

I have to say that the Lu family is really an extremely considerate and thoughtful person, and the head of the Lin family deserves it, Feng Qingfang thought to herself, and smiled: "I know, aunt don't worry." ”

"Good boy, let's go." Lu Shi looked at Feng Qingmad with pity.

Although she never said it, in her heart, she didn't look down on what Lin Yitang did, and at the same time, she was upset for Feng Qing, who had been abandoned since she was a child, so she was very merciful to her, and loved her more than before.

As the two spoke, they arrived at the gate of the courtyard, and the voices of several people came from inside, and sure enough, Lin Yitang was among them.

When I entered the courtyard, I saw the old lady and Lin Yitang in the pavilion, as well as Lin Yunqi and Lin Yunshu sisters chatting, and they were happy.

It's a pity that his arrival is destined to destroy this harmonious atmosphere, Feng Qingfang couldn't help but sigh secretly.

Lu Shi pulled Feng Qing and walked over wildly, and said with a smile: "Old lady, who do you think is coming?" ”

"Oh, it's frivolous? Come here! Old Madam Lin stood up happily and waved at Feng lightly, "Come to grandmother!" ”

Feng Qing glanced at Lin Yitang and Lin Yunshu, directly ignored Lin Yunqi's cold gaze, stepped on the lotus step to the old lady, and bowed: "Greeting grandmother and mother." ”

"What kind of etiquette does the family do?" The old lady dragged Feng Qing's hand, smiled from ear to ear, and hurriedly pulled her to sit down, her eyes swirling around her, "How do I think you seem to be thinner and darker than before?" Girl, are you disobedient again, and ran out to play without telling your father? ”

Lu Shi smiled: "I said just now that she is, if she doesn't run outside every day, how can she get such a tan?" ”

"I'm a person who can't stay still, it's good to be able to play outside, if I'm bored at home every day, I can't get sick?" Feng Qing stuck out her tongue wildly, looking very cute and cute.

"You're such a restless girl, and I don't know who I'm with." The old lady said angrily, "And Dingguo Gong is too, how can the father not care about his daughter?" ”

Lin Yunshu on the side said in a strange manner: "Heh, everyone knows that Cousin Feng is naughty and loves to cause trouble, and she must be able to control it." ”

Feng followed her words lightly and said: "Dad is entangled in official business, and there are endless things to deal with every day, where is the time to care about me?" As my cousin said, I'm a notoriously troublemaker anyway, and I don't care what outsiders think. ”

Speaking of Feng Heng, Lin Yitang was silent and did not speak, his face was a little unnatural.

Lin Yunshu walked over, stood next to Feng lightly, and said with a smile: "Cousin just likes to smear herself, fortunately, only our family is here here, if outsiders listen to your words, how can it be really good?" ”

"Listen, listen, how right is Shu'er? Don't talk nonsense anymore. The old lady deliberately taught a lesson with a straight face, but the smile in her eyes couldn't be hidden.

Feng Qingfang bowed his head and said, "Yes, I remember it." ”

Lin Yunqi saw that they were chatting so happily, and she was like an outsider, she was very unhappy, she glanced at Lin Yitang's side, and asked with a smirk: "My cousin came from the capital this time, presumably to come to my aunt's wedding banquet on the sixteenth of this month, right?" ”

As soon as these words came out, the air suddenly became quiet, Lu frowned, secretly dragged Lin Yunqi, and reproached him with his eyes, and the faces of the others became a little weird, especially Lin Yitang himself, his face was blue and white for a while, and it was extremely ugly.

"No, I didn't know that my mother and Mencius were going to get married before I came, and I only heard about it when I arrived in Lanzhou." Feng said indifferently.

Lin Yunqi ignored her mother's eyes to stop her, and answered herself: "Then you know now, you should attend the wedding banquet then, right?" ”

"I'm not sure yet." Feng Qingfang didn't say not to go directly, because he didn't want to make the scene too embarrassing.

The old lady glared at Lin Yunqi and said with a smile: "There is still half a month, don't be in a hurry to make a decision, let's not talk about this first." ”

"My aunt remarried, cousin, it's normal for you to feel uncomfortable, but after all, she is your mother, and it stands to reason that you should still attend, otherwise people may gossip."

"I'm only gossiping when I'm in attendance, right?" Feng Qing raised his eyes and looked over, "Why does my cousin always think differently from me?" ”

"I ......"

"Okay, okay, it's up to you to go or not, what does it matter if outsiders gossip or not?" The old lady said, and gave Lin Yunqi a warning look, so frightened that she quickly closed her mouth and didn't dare to make a sound.

Lu Shi hurriedly diverted the topic: "By the way, I almost forgot to say that the frivolity did not come alone this time, she was accompanied by a young son, who was also from a famous family in the capital, and it looked like a perfect match for the madness." ”

"Oh? Is this really the case? ”

The old lady and Lin Yunshu, and even Lin Yitang and Lin Yunshu all looked at each other, but their expressions were different.

Feng Qingfang hurriedly explained: "That's just me...... An ordinary friend in the capital, he came to Lanzhou to do some business, so he walked with me by the way, but he just took care of each other, nothing else, don't misunderstand. ”

"But I see that Jiang Gongzi looks at you with affection in his eyes, and it is far more simple than just an ordinary friend for you." Lu Shi teased her, "Moreover, if it is really as simple as you say, how can you bring people to your home?" ”

Lin Yunshu stood up to relieve the siege and said: "Cousin Feng is thin-skinned, auntie, don't make fun of her, see that her face is red, if she continues to talk, she may have to find a crack in the ground to get into." ”

"I ......"

Feng Qingfang is really hard to say, it turns out that this is Jiang Mingche's calculation - let the Lin family unanimously think that he is her sweetheart.

"Okay, let's not talk about it," the old lady held Feng Qing's hand, and the joy in her eyes could not be hidden, "But since that Jiang Gongzi is here, I should still go to meet him, otherwise it will make the family feel rude, eldest daughter-in-law, you help me to the hall, go!" ”

As he spoke, he got up and went, and Feng couldn't stop it.

Looking at the backs of the old lady and the Lu family walking away, Feng Qing hung her head wildly and sighed.

Lin Yunshu walked over and said with a smile: "Cousin, don't worry, grandmother and aunt are gentle people, and they won't embarrass Jiang Gongzi." ”

"Hehe......" Feng smiled and sweated, and then saw Lin Yunshu's eyes roll, and said playfully: "Listening to you praising that person like this, talking about people like the moon in the sky, I am also very curious about what kind of character that son is, or go over and take a look." ”
