Chapter 156: Reunion in Lanzhou
When Yan Xin woke up, it was already dawn, she was probably tired before, so she slept fairly well along the way, and Fourteen also seemed to deliberately control the speed and behavior to make the carriage less bumpy.
Turning sideways slightly, she realized that she was leaning on a person's shoulder, and after opening her eyes completely, she realized that she was pillowing Luo Yunxi's hand, and from the posture, it was the man who secretly moved his hand behind her after she fell asleep, so that she could sleep more comfortably.
There was a little warmth in her heart, and she was about to lift the blanket on Luo Yunxi's body a little, when the people around her had already moved.
"Awake?"
This lazy tone, misty eyes, is really like no one around.
Yan Xin hummed softly, not ready to wake up Ye Jing who was leaning against the window on the other side.
She quietly lifted the curtain and looked out with her back up. The carriage and the shadows of the trees staggered by, and some sunlight sprinkled on her face, gentle and gentle, adding a little tenderness to Lidong.
Fourteen sensed the movement and turned sideways from the horse, "I have arrived outside Lanzhou City, and it is estimated that there will be an hour before I enter the city, Miss Liu is really awake, she must be homesick." ”
Have you already arrived outside Lanzhou?
It turned out to be so fast.
Ye Jing was already awake when Yanxin retracted her head, and she touched her face for the first time, as if she cared about whether her sleeping appearance would affect the image she maintained in Luo Yunxi's heart.
The three of them had just woken up, looked at each other without saying a word, silently put away the blanket covering their bodies, and Yanxin was the first to clear their throats and speak.
"Clean up a little, it's coming soon, then you go to the inn to stay first, and I'll contact you when I tell my family."
She hasn't been home for almost two months, and she doesn't know much about the situation at home, but now she just wants to see her brother as soon as possible, and by the way, see how the woman is doing.
Once upon a time, when she thought that she had solved an enemy on Pojun Mountain, she would also guess how Liu Tang'er was insulted and spurned, whether her father had secretly visited him, and whether King Pingnan had given her a good time.
Anyway, in the family letter, his father would not reveal half of the news about Liu Tang'er, maybe he felt that Liu Tang'er was a shame for the Liu family, or maybe he was afraid of arousing Liu Yan's heart.
didn't want to be bothered by these things that were about to know the answer, so Yan Xin had to suppress his anxiety and go home decently.
"It's okay, I don't want to meet someone like Xia Xu in Lanzhou again." Wiping her face a little, Ye Jing had already woken up completely, and when she heard that she was about to enter the city, she didn't know what she wanted to design.
Saying that, Ye Jing paused, rolled her eyes, and proposed, "But ...... Now that you're on Miss Liu's territory, shouldn't you find an opportunity to take us to your house as a guest and enter the friendship of the landlords? ”
Yan Xin knew that Ye Jing was not at ease when she saw her like this, and wanted to enter the door of her house and dream!
"If you want to, you can do it, I'm afraid that my family is too big and too comfortable, so that you who haven't become the young lady of the Xia family will be stalked, and you have to stay and be a concubine for my father."
"Poof."
Luo Yunxi, who was on the side, couldn't hold back his laughter, and always had a good attitude towards the conversation between the two of them, it seemed that the rumors of Pojun Mountain were honest and did not deceive him.
These two women who stand at the top of the list really live up to their reputation.
Seeing that Luo Yunxi was smiling, Ye Jing frowned, and immediately got up and said who was right and who was wrong.
"You! There should be a degree of joking! ”
"I'm just a reasonable guess, after all, Miss Ye's mind is unfathomable, and I'm really afraid that I will miscalculate and get closer to your trap."
Ye Jing is right, this has reached Yanxin's own territory, and the time has come to rectify her.
"Traps? What kind of trap can I have, don't frame people with empty mouths and white teeth! ”
Ye Jing's expression seemed to be trying her best to play the role of an innocent, kind and straightforward lady, but what she didn't know was that Luo Yunxi didn't eat this at all.
According to Liu Yanxin's understanding of Luo Yunxi, he should like that kind of charming and lovely, tall and atmospheric face, and his personality should also be amorous and hide a knife in his smile. Ye Jing can only pretend to be small and atmospheric, which is not suitable at all!
Of course, Yan Xin didn't mean to say that she was charming and lovely, she was just a reasonable guess.
Thinking of this, and then looking at the woman in front of him who was eager to tear herself apart, Yanxin shrugged: "You still sit in peace, I also said that the purpose is the military aircraft deployment map, don't understand any crooked thoughts, be careful that there is no return." ”
In order to alleviate the boredom in the carriage, Luo Yunxi turned out two dice from an unknown corner and asked the two of them if they wanted to guess the size or something. Liu Yan had no intention of playing, quietly looking out the window, Ye Jing became interested and had a lot of fun.
The breakfast was some snacks bought yesterday, and when Yanxin opened the sedan curtain at the gate of the city, he instructed the soldiers guarding the city to go to Liu's house to report.
The little soldier also seemed to know her, and hurriedly said a word of the eldest lady and ran away, provoking Ye Jing to talk a lot on the side.
"Yo, it seems that Miss Liu's reputation in Lanzhou City doesn't seem to be so good."
Yan Xin withdrew his hand and lowered the curtain, and couldn't help asking: "It's hard to see how much better your reputation in Pojun Mountain is than mine?" Don't take 50 steps and laugh at 100 steps. ”
"Even if I don't have a good reputation, it's your fault, so I have to perform well this time, or how to gain a foothold in Pojun Mountain in the future!"
After the incident in Yuancheng, Ye Jing didn't want to pretend to be at peace with her anymore, since Yan Xin wanted to tear her face first, she didn't mind touching her to the end.
She wanted to talk about the murderer of Yu Huai, but she was afraid of angering Yan Xin, so she could only stop talking stupidly.
"The power of Lanzhou City is not much better than that of Yuan City, remember not to reveal your identity at will, and don't deal with the people of Pingnan Palace, otherwise...... At one's own risk. ”
There are one and two of these kinds of things, and it is not clear in the next step, Yan Xin just takes care of them and is more careful, although Liu Tang'er has already subdued the law and can not let go of King Nan's heart knot. Luo Yunxi naturally knew the inside story about this matter, but Ye Jing was stunned.
If the news of her return this time reaches the ears of King Pingnan, she doesn't know what kind of storm it will set off, anyway, she doesn't have any good premonition in this line.
"I know, I must wait for your good news at the inn, it's best to let me see the military aircraft deployment map of the Ashan Department quickly, otherwise I will have to sue the master."
Ye Jing raised her eyebrows, she didn't use any good tone, but when she thought of being alone with Luo Yunxi at the inn, her mood immediately improved.
Yan Xin looked at this familiar street and scenery, and his heart was full of emotion, and he couldn't help but instruct Fourteen: "Yipinzhai turn left on Yongqian Street, and you don't have to send me when you get there, I can go back myself." ”
"Yes, Miss Liu, I'll give you a horse then." Fourteen didn't question any of her orders, and treated her as respectfully as Luo Yunxi.
The horses stopped, and the noise on the street grew louder and louder, and Fourteen lifted the sedan curtain and whispered: "Yipinzhai has arrived." ”
Ye Jing was the first to dismount, stood at the door of this Pinzhai and watched for a while, and waited until Yanxin and the others dismounted before happily walked in.
The furnishings here haven't changed much since the banquet left, but I don't know if I can meet Axis Qing again. The last time she left, Yanxin handed over the osmanthus forest in the south of the city to him and Jing'er to take care of it together, and she didn't know whether it was a profit or a loss at the moment, since she came back this time, she happened to find a chance to take a look.
"Yo Liu Yanxin, why is there still your hanging elephant here, is it possible that this is also your family's property?"
Ye Jing ran to the top of the stairs at some point, pointed to a few paintings on the wall and shouted at them: "This woman next door looks pretty good, but she is no worse than you." ”
As soon as Yan Xin was about to let her come back, someone answered her question.
"Our Yipinzhai is actually not the property of the lord of Liucheng, and those paintings can only be hung by the noble ladies who won the first place in our annual Lanzhou City Talent Conference can be fortunate to leave the painting scroll. This one is Miss Liu, and the one next to it is Ning Shuying, the deceased daughter of King Pingnan. ”
The shopkeeper of Yipinzhai didn't know when he came out, and after saying this, he first saluted Yanxin.
"Dead daughter?" Ye Jing muttered secretly, thinking of Liu Yanxin saying in the carriage that he wanted to keep a distance from the people of the Pingnan Palace, and it was difficult to achieve it because of this incident.
"Hey, this young lady has just come to Lanzhou City, I think it should be our Miss Liu's classmate, no wonder she is so extraordinary."
The shopkeeper continued to inquire, as if he intended to talk about it, after all, it was just a rumor that Yanxin went to break the military door to learn art, and he wanted to verify it again. Since Ning Shuying died, Liu Yanxin climbed to the second prince, and King Pingnan's power was not as good as before, isn't the entire Lanzhou City the biggest in her Liu family? Whether it is public or private, as a businessman, he should stammer.
Yan Xin didn't want to attract attention, but just called the shopkeeper, first, to interrupt his nonsense, and second, to probe the limelight.
"The shopkeeper will go and arrange two rooms for my two friends first, I haven't seen my father in a hurry to come back this time, I don't know what the situation is at my house?"
"There are indeed two things happening in Liufu in the past few days, one of which you must have heard about, your brother Thunder Boy is back, and the other is ...... But it's hard to say. ”
The shopkeeper's face was sad, as if the time was not good, and he was afraid that Yan Xin would do something if he knew about it.
Now Yan Xin also has a little bottom in his heart, and he doesn't dare to say anything to her, except for Pingnan Wangfu, which is Liu Tang'er!
She just had to ask which one was doing it right under her nose! "What's wrong? But it doesn't hurt for you to say it! ”
"Your sister-in-law...... Disappeared the other day ......"
"What!"
Missing? Liu Tang'er is missing?
Did she save her, or did she escape on her own? Could it be that the bastard of King Pingnan didn't send someone to take a good look at her!
Liu Tang'er's disappearance is undoubtedly a tiger returning to the mountain, but it was only a few days ago, could it be that someone reported to her......
Yan Xin thought about one person after another who might be involved in this matter, and thought about where she could run away with a sinful body.
"Fourteen, I still have to ask you to do this."
After thinking about it, she still called Fourteen and asked him to inquire about Liu Tang'er's whereabouts.
"The subordinates must do their best and not let go of any clues." With that, Fourteen retreated.
Ye Jing listened attentively on the side, but she still didn't understand anything when the whole thing was over, so she asked, "What sister, Liu Yanxin, you can make it clear." ”
Liu Yanxin, who had just come out of the restlessness, looked at her, pointed to Ning Shuying's hanging painting, and said indifferently.
"See that woman? It was my sister who died in the house. ”
