It is not easy to delay the matter of going down the river for too long. Yu Yongqing and Lu Jiangfeng took care of everything. asked Lu Jiangfeng to let Li Jiangwei leave the capital in the name of returning to his hometown to visit relatives.

The time of departure was chosen by Lu Jiangfeng Lingzhan later. It was early that morning, and it was still dark. Li Jiangwei and his entourage rushed to the city gate early, and drove out of the capital as soon as the city gate was opened.

Because it was in the name of visiting relatives, the Huaixing Marquis Mansion sent a total of two buses. One trip was the car Li Jiangwei was riding, and the other was to confuse other people's ideas in the name of transporting goods.

Yu Yongqing sent Yue Kang to protect Li Jiangwei, and Yue Kang temporarily traveled as the steward of An Yuanbo's Mansion. According to the regulations of An Yuanbo's Mansion, Li Jiangwei should take a maid out even if she is a concubine.

Considering the rest of the trip, Li Jiangwei and Yue Kang still gave up the idea of bringing a maid from the house, and chose to pick one at random on the way.

Li Jiangwei sat in the carriage and felt the shaking from the carriage. In order to make the road less twists and turns, Lu Jiangfeng specially prepared a high-quality car, which is very stable to drive.

Even when I arrived in the suburbs of Beijing, I didn't feel dizzy.

There are not many things to carry with you, mainly a change of clothes, which are kept in the carriage.

Li Jiangwei originally wanted to wear a simple dress, but she needed to maintain the identity of Miss An Yuanbofu along the way, so she could only wear several layers of skirts that were complicated in the past.

"Guards, where are we going first?"

"Miss, it's time to change your name in the future." Yue Kang, who was driving the carriage outside, said: "Miss should call me Yue Kang directly." ”

As a close attendant of the imperial concubine, when Li Jiangwei was in the Wenhua Palace, she more or less knew from the conversations of others that Yue Kang was of grade. Let Yue Kang be his own driver, obviously wronged him.

"We borrowed from Huaizhou to go to Xinzhou. It's a long detour, but it's safer than going straight to NSW. ”

"I know that." Before leaving, Lu Jiangfeng specially went to Anyuanbo's Mansion to explain the general arrangements to Li Jiangwei, but he did not mention the specific cities he passed through.

"Let's go to Shangyang County first and pick up people in Shangyang County. Then go to the next place, and it won't be too long. ”

"Pick up someone?" Li Jiangwei said: "Apart from me, there are other people who go to the river together?" ”

"Yes."

"Who's it?"

Yue Kang replied calmly: "He is one of the shopkeepers of Wenjin Bookstore, and he wants to go south to talk about business." The shopkeeper has martial arts, and the emperor thinks that with him with him, it will be safer on the way to Xinzhou. ”

Li Jiangwei had doubts, but did not continue to ask.

Li Jiangwei, who was holding her bags, lifted the corner of the curtain and looked out, the woods outside the car were dyed with autumn, and pieces of yellow leaves fell one after another, covering the ground. Lu Jiangfeng chose a good departure time, and it was rare to have two sunny days, and the ground was no longer wet. On the day of departure, the weather was just as there was no rain falling.

At the current rate, we will be able to reach Shangyang tonight.

As the carriage swayed rhythmically, Li Jiangwei closed her eyes and rested, and soon fell asleep.

When they woke up again, they had already arrived within the boundaries of Shangyang County.

After passing by several restaurants one after another, Yue Kang parked the carriage in front of a bookstore, and the plaque on the door read "Wenjin Bookstore".

"This Wenjin bookstore has opened here?"

Yue Kang just smiled and didn't answer Li Jiangwei's exclamation.

He put away his horsewhip and asked the guy outside the Wenjin bookstore, "Is the shopkeeper here?" We are the people of Shangjing Anyuan Bofu. Come to find the rice shopkeeper of your bookstore. ”

When the guy heard this, he replied respectfully: "It was originally from Uncle Anyuan's mansion." The shopkeeper has already explained in advance, and the two of you are invited to come to the backyard. If you don't like it, I'll stay in the room behind our bookstore tonight. ”

After hearing this, Li Jiangwei in the carriage understood Yuekang's plan. Living in the territory of Yu Yongyi is safer than living in a restaurant.

"The room in our Wenjin bookstore is more comfortable than the county restaurant." The guy said proudly: "I will never slack off Miss." ”

"Then there will be labor to lead the way."

Waiting for the carriage to drive into the backyard, Yue Kang carefully lifted the curtain of the car. Li Jiangwei put the bag in her arms to the side and got out of the car.

The backyard of the Wenjin bookstore in Shangyang is decorated with a unique flavor. There are a lot of flowers and plants planted in the courtyard, which are purple and red, and the colors are different, which is very beautiful. It's just that among so many flowers, Li Jiangwei only recognizes a cluster of osmanthus flowers.

The fragrant osmanthus made her feel a little less interested in appreciating the flowers.

If this osmanthus can be made into a snack, it must taste good.

"This young lady will live in the room. We've cleaned up the room, and the shopkeeper is still talking about business outside. It's getting late, and I'm sure I'll be back soon. The two of them are tired of traveling, so it's better to rest first. ”

As soon as the words fell, a little girl came over, saluted Li Jiangwei timidly, and said, "Miss, the maid was sent by the shopkeeper to serve Miss." Miss, please. ”

After a long-lost trip, Li Jiangwei was indeed tired, even if she slept in the car.

The people at Wenjin Bookstore cleaned the room very clean, and also used some faint incense. The smell of this incense is similar to the smell of the incense she bought for Li Jiangyun last time. Li Jiangwei took a deep breath, and then exhaled the turbid breath in her chest.

Between exhaling and inhaling, I feel that my body is much more relaxed.

"What's your name?"

"The maid's name is Yingzi."

What a plain name.

"I have prepared hot water today, I wonder if Miss needs to take a bath?"

"Okay, you go and prepare."

"Yes."

This body has improved, but it is still weak compared to ordinary people. Li Jiangwei is not ready to deliberately polish her body at the beginning of the journey, but simple stretching and walking are still necessary.

After Yingzi was ready, Li Jiangwei happened to come back from a walk.

After bathing, I feel a lot more comfortable.

Yingzi said: "The shopkeeper is back." Miss wants to have dinner with the shopkeeper? If the young lady was too tired, the maid went back to the shopkeeper and brought the food to the house. ”

"No need, I'll go see your shopkeeper."

Since you want to travel together, it's not good to not see each other.

"You lead the way."

"Yes."

When Li Jiangwei and Yingzi arrived, they saw Yue Kang and one person talking.

Just looking at the back, Li Jiangwei is a little familiar.

"The person who is with the Yue Steward is your shopkeeper?"

Yingzi replied obediently: "It's the rice shopkeeper from the head office." ”

The size and voice of this rice shopkeeper are very similar to a person, Li Jiangwei does not know many men, and only after eliminating them one by one can she understand who this familiarity comes from.

Li Jiangwei didn't show it on her face, but she was beating the drum in her heart.

"Miss, won't you go in?"

Hearing Yingzi's urging, Li Jiangwei was shocked to realize that she had been standing outside the door for a while.

"You go in and tell me about it."

Yingzi got the order and shouted at the door, "Miss is here." ”

The two people in the room reacted to the outside, and both looked at the door.
