In the chaos, I woke up a little, only felt that the body was very comfortable, and I didn't feel the cold air in the forest, I reached out and wiped the saliva that was vague at the corner of my mouth, opened my eyes slightly, only to see that the sky was slightly bright, and by the sparse daylight, the forest in front of me was all in front of me. I looked sideways slightly, only to realize that I was leaning on Shang Jinming's left shoulder, and my mind suddenly sobered up, and I hurriedly got up and sat next to it.

"Your saliva is all wetting my clothes!" Shang Jinming looked down at the shirt on his left shoulder, frowning, and looked disgusted.

My cheeks were flushed, so I had to keep my head down, "When you take it off, I'll wash it for you." ”

"It's already dark, hurry up and put away the bonfire, you must rush to Jiangfu today." As he spoke, he got up and dusted off his clothes.

Reluctantly, I kicked the bonfire away with my foot, pulled the horse, and handed the reins in my hand to Shang Jinming.

After running all the way, I finally arrived at the Jiangfu boundary in the evening. This is the junction of Jiangfu and Linzhen, named "Seven Bridges", because there are seven stone bridges of different shapes. This is the most common border town in the Jiangfu area. There are three stone gates in the town, which look very old, there is only one street in the town, dozens of households, except for the bustle of the market, the town is as quiet as a large courtyard.

"This is Jiang Fu's territory, don't look at this town, he is Jiang Fu's eyes, anyone who steps in, Jiang Fu's ruler will know." Shang Jinming grabbed the horse rope and dismounted and walked slowly. I followed him and didn't dare to say anything.

We walked all the way into the alley, and there were courtyard houses in the alley. Each courtyard is a black lacquered gate, entering the aisle, you can see the pink and white wall, on which are painted with auspicious patterns such as "Fu" and "Shou", but it adds a bit of elegance.

Passing by the gates of a dozen houses, he stopped in front of a slightly more spacious courtyard. I saw that as soon as the door opened at this time, a hunchbacked man in a gray cloth shirt walked out quickly. He held his waist slightly and walked straight to Shang Jinming, "My lord, everything is arranged." "Lead the horse and go out the back door.

Shang Jinming strode into this courtyard with his head held high, and although I was confused, I quickly caught up.

There are three main rooms in the courtyard, and there are east and west wings on each side, although they are not too big, they are always spacious. I followed him into the main room in the middle, which was clean and transparent, without any sense of luxury, and the simple wooden furniture was scattered. Before we could sit down, the little cloth cloth who led the horse had already entered the house with two bowls of hot tea.

"All the men have been sent out?"

"Yes, all the carrier pigeons that received the adults yesterday were sent out, and there should be news tomorrow." The cloth replied with an old man.

"What have Jiang Fu's guards and Sima Gang done recently?" Shang Jinming lifted the lid of the tea and blew the mist.

"The town guard went to Chunhui Courtyard a few days ago, and then he thought that he had been nesting in the house and had never come out. However, the son of the leader of the Sima Gang came back a few days ago, and it seemed to be lively, and he invited many famous people in the rivers and lakes. ”

"What does the Sima Gang do?" I hurriedly asked.

"The Sima Gang is the largest horse gang of Jiang Fu's generation, that is, the Lu Yun Gang, as long as it is escorted through Jiang Fu, they will have to intervene." Buyi smiled slightly, revealing a bit of Gongjin's attitude, "Forgive the old slave for being clumsy, I never recognized the girl as ······"

"I'm just His Majesty's Imperial Guard, and I happened to be assigned by His Majesty to help Lord Tutong handle the case." I said smoothly.

"Oh, oh, oh" The cloth Yi raised his eyes to look at Shang Jinming who was sitting on the high seat, only to see that he didn't raise his eyelids, and continued to taste the tea, then turned around, smiled at me again, and retreated with his body in his mouth.

"This is a secret village in Jiangfu of the Patrol Division, and the little slaves in it are all spies of the Patrol Division, so they can rest assured. You are resting here honestly today, and you can tell the old slave just now - Mrs. Cheng. I'll go to the Chunhui Courtyard in Linzhen tonight to investigate. ”

"I'll go too!"

"It's the Qinglou there, what are you doing?" Shang Jinming squinted his gaze slightly and said angrily.

"I'll protect you! There are a lot of fish and dragons there, I'm careful, can't I collect more information? I smiled flatteringly.

"Not allowed!" Shang Jinming was really too lazy to chew his tongue with me, threw off two words, and went to the backyard with a gust of wind.

Naturally, I refused to fall behind, trotted all the way, overtook Shang Jinming, and rushed to lead the horse out of the hospital.

Although it is a town, the scene is very different, Shouchun Town, where tall courtyards are everywhere, and the streets are full of traffic. The bustling crowd is surging like a tide, and the lights are in a trance, both illusory and real. The crowd shouting and indulging inside and outside the wine shop, the antique streets are long and narrow, at night, thousands of lights are bright, the exquisite courtyards are suddenly dressed in jewel-inlaid clothes, and the streets have become the shining Milky Way, and in the middle of the night, there are insects chirping and the deep mountains full of smoke.

I was looking at the crowd not far in front of me, and a melodious sound of piano and sound was in my ears. From a distance, I saw that the courtyard was draped low, creating a hazy atmosphere, and the walls were all covered with brocade, and even the ceiling was separated by embroidered felt, which was both warm and warm. I rode quickly, and got off the horse before the horse stopped a leg, a little slave led the horse for me, and walked into the courtyard, and the furnishings were also used in the girl's boudoir, extremely luxurious, the finely carved jade tooth bed, the brocade quilt was embroidered, and there was a small sachet hanging on the curtain hook, and there was a faint fragrance.

At this time, everyone is gathering on the guqin in the center of the courtyard, the sound of the piano is melodious, such as high mountains, such as flowing water, gurgling and ringing, the listener is like enjoying the most beautiful scenery of nature, making people feel refreshed and happy. I saw a young woman bowing her head and stroking the qin, she was wearing a yellow embroidered phoenix Bixia Luo, mopping the floor with a pink smoke gauze skirt, holding Luo Cui soft yarn, a peony flower obliquely inserted in the wind bun and misty temples, the long black hair like a spring slid between the snow-white fingers, a coiled bun, the jade hairpin pine hairpin, and then inserted a branch of gold step shaking, the long beads trembled and hung down, swaying between the temples, the eyebrows were not described, the skin was white and greasy without powder, the lips were pursed, Yan was like a danguo, and the coral chain and the red jade bracelet were compared between the wrists. Finally, the crimson bead chain is put on the wrist, white as snow, red as fire, terrifying and bright, the bright yellow Luo skirt is dressed, and the emerald ribbon is tied around the waist, which suddenly shows the figure of Na, wandering in front of the mirror, and all kinds of styles are alive.

"She is Qin Ke'er." Shang Jinming stood behind me.
