Chapter Eighty-Seven: Anomaly
"It's okay to arrive, not tired." After she was full, she slept until now, and if she said she was tired, it might be her pillow arm, which was a little numb.
"It's almost time to get to the station." Xie Chongning glanced out the window.
Mu Yu followed and glanced at the sky, the sun was still struggling on the horizon, and the flaming clouds in the distance were very spectacular, this was her first time traveling, and the faint expectation in her heart gave this time a layer of color that had never been seen before.
The carriage stopped at the post house in front of the city, Xie Chongning lifted his robe and got up first, "Tonight, now the post station will rest for one night, and enter the city tomorrow." ”
Mu Yu glanced up at the sparsely populated post house, "At our current speed, how long will it take to get to Nanxun?" ”
"More than half a month." Xie Chongning replied.
Qin Sang got out of the carriage and stood stiffly at the door, refusing to enter the post station, "This place is inevitably too bad, I don't live there." ”
"You also said that this is a trip, not a blessing, and it is good to have a place to live." Qin Xu didn't care so much, handed over the reins, and walked in on his own.
"I don't live!" In Qin Sang's eyes, the post house is in tatters, and it can't be compared with the county lord's mansion at all, the most terrible thing is that the tables and chairs in the post house are old, and scratches from the old and new can be seen everywhere, how can she stand it as a county lord?
His eldest brother couldn't be trusted, and Qin Sang came to Xie Chongning for help again, "Brother Chongning, this place is too shabby, I can't live it, let's go." ”
Mu Yu deliberately slowed down his pace and slowed Xie Chongning by half a step.
"If the county lord doesn't stay, you can go back." Xie Chongning replied coldly.
She knew that Brother Chongning was the best, and she was reluctant to suffer herself, Qin Sang suddenly smiled, and was about to take Xie Chongning's hand with a small step, "Brother Chongning, then let's go back together." ”
Xie Chongning raised his hand indifferently, making Qin Sang pounce, "Xie An, send the county lord back." Xie An was the guard who had been following him.
When Xie An walked in front of Qin Sang, Qin Sang understood that Xie Chongning wanted to accompany him back, he disliked himself and wanted to send her back alone.
"I don't, I don't go back, you are all here to accompany me, why should I go back?" In a fit of rage, she pushed Xie An away and ran into the post station alone.
Qin Xu smiled helplessly at Xie Chongning, "You still have a way, my sister has been arrogant since she was a child, and it is difficult for the two of you to put up with her." ”
In fact, Qin Sang's performance, Mu Yu had already predicted it, a county lord who lived in the capital all the year round, how could she know the hardships outside, especially if she traveled far away, and when the time came, she would complain again and again.
It's just that Qin Xu, a well-known gentleman in the capital, didn't complain in the face of such a down-and-out post station, and sure enough, this person still couldn't fully believe his words.
During dinner, Qin Sang lost his temper and didn't come down to eat, Qin Xu asked people to prepare food and send it upstairs, "It really makes you laugh." ”
Mu Yu smiled understandingly, and then buried his head in eating the rice in the bowl.
"I didn't expect Miss Mu to have such a good temperament, and she has never suffered hardships, why are you so good at talking?" Qin Xu sighed casually.
"It's not easy to talk, it's just that I have a big heart, so I don't need to pay so much attention when I come out to play, some eat and some live, it's already good." Mu Yu chuckled contentedly.
"It's better for you to be my sister." Qin Xu suddenly remembered the night he watched the banquet, "I haven't heard you call me Brother Xu until now." ”
Thinking that he would have to get along with Qin Xu for a long time in the future, Mu Yu was not restrained, and became bolder, "Brother Xu can't be called, if you don't mind the county king, can I call you Brother Qin?" ”
Qin Xu raised his eyebrows, "Naturally, we are all traveling in plain clothes, your county king and county king call me, but I am troubled." ”
Xie Chongning was a machine for eating the whole process, if it weren't for the necessary moments, there would be no extra words, but Mu Yu and Qin Xu chatted happily, it turned out that Qin Xu had traveled a few times in the early years, so he had already adapted to such days.
"The days of having a post house are good, if you go to the south again, the distance between the cities will be farther and farther, if there is no post house, you can only sleep on the floor." Qin Xu looked serious, and it didn't seem that he was lying to himself.
"It's good that I have food and shelter, but the county lord ......" Mu Yu subconsciously looked at the second floor of the inn.
"Don't worry, as long as Chongning is here, she won't leave." Qin Xu knows his sister best, but whenever he meets Xie Chongning, no matter how difficult it is, he can stick to it.
But Xie Chongning didn't like his sister, he looked at it in his eyes, and said that he didn't listen to his sister, so he could only wait for her to hit the south wall one day and wake up.
Mu Yu listened to Qin Xu's description, and felt more and more funny, and looked back just to meet Xie Chongning staring at her, and a pair of black eyes stared at her without a place to hide.
"But don't be jealous, Sister Yu'er, Chongning is wholeheartedly devoted to you." Qin Xu saw that the two of them were secretly sending Qiu Bo under his nose, and his tone was sour.
Mu Yu quickly turned his head and eagerly picked up the rice in the bowl to hide his embarrassment.
Qin Sang was next door to her, and the houses in the post house were all made of wood, and the sound insulation effect was very poor, so bad that she could clearly hear Qin Sang's muttering while lying on the bed.
Speaking of which, although Qin Sang is a county lord, her temperament is not very arrogant, she likes Xie Chongning and likes Xie Chongning, but she doesn't have much hostility towards herself.
Qin Sang couldn't sleep all night, so he kept whispering, "Brother Chongning is a villain." But he didn't say a word about Mu Yu, so Mu Yu fell asleep with the voice of "Brother Chongning is a bad guy".
When he set off on the second day, Mu Yan saw that Qin Sang's face was much worse, but he still took the initiative to ask Xie Chongning for warmth, a county lord, he liked it so humblely, Qin Sang was really the first person.
Xie Chongning had a cold face, he would never answer unless necessary, and finally got into Mu Yu's carriage under Qin Sang's attention.
Mu Yu touched her nose weakly, for some reason, when she saw Qin Sang like this, she actually felt a little guilty. If Qin Sang was like Li Miaozhen, she didn't need to estimate Qin Sang's feelings, but she was just a simple and humble little girl.
"What's wrong?" Xie Chongning quickly sensed Mu Yu's somewhat depressed mood.
"I think the county lord is a very good girl." Mu Yu lowered his eyes, staring at the curtain of the carriage and trembling uncontrollably because of the shaking of the body.
“……”
Seeing Xie Chongning's caring eyes, Mu Yu hurriedly explained, "I just think that the county lord loves and hates clearly, and he has never embarrassed me." ”
"So you think she's good?" Xie Chongning chuckled, picked up a book from the side of his hand, and flipped it elegantly.
Mu Yu felt that Xie Chongning was laughing at herself, and Biyue cautiously leaned into the ear of the young lady, "Miss, didn't you notice the abnormality of the county lord today?" ”
"Anomaly?" She only felt that the county lord was not in good spirits today, and there was not much smile on her cute little face, and she was still a little tired, "The county lord is not very happy today?" ”
"No, today's county lord's dress is very similar to yesterday's young lady's dress."
"Biyue is more careful than you." Xie Chongning's rounded fingertips stayed on the yellowed page, and it was rare to interject.
Mu Yu carefully recalled the county lord's outfit today, it was indeed much better than yesterday's complexity, and his clothes were the same light green as himself, "It's just a coincidence, right?" "Why does the county lord look like he dresses up?
Biyue shook her head, how did she know the county lord's thoughts.
Xie Chongning glanced at her contemptuously, and then lowered his head and looked at the book.
Xie An, who was sitting in front of the carriage, suddenly knocked on the outer wall of the carriage, "My lord, this horse seems to have eaten something wrong." ”
As the curtain of the carriage was lifted, an unpleasant smell rushed into Mu Yu's nose, which pulled the stomach.
Xie Chongning was silent for a while, "The city will be there soon, ask the county king...... "Ask the county king, it must be a day off, but before Xie Chongning could say the following words, they saw two intermittent and unusual colors on the ground through the raised curtains.
"It seems that not only our horses have problems, but also their horses." Mu Yu frowned, only feeling that this horse's belly was a little unusual.
"Advanced City." Xie Chongning said.
The horse reluctantly pulled them into the city, and the group had to get out of the carriage and walk with their feet, followed Xie Chongning and Qin Xu's guards into the city, and then disappeared, and only six of the eight people remained, but the team that left people was still a little mighty, which inevitably attracted attention.
"Where's Xie An?" Mu Yu looked around for a week, but didn't see Xie An.
"Go do what he's supposed to do." Xie Chongning replied.
Qin Xu walked to them with Qin Sang, "This horse is so good, how can it have diarrhea?" ”
"I knew that the inn was dirty, and you could see that horse had diarrhea." Where did Qin Sang know so much, he should have found a place to complain.
The three of them glanced at each other, and they were all vigilant, although the belly of the horse can be big or small, but it is not a bad thing to be cautious when sailing a ship for ten thousand years.
"Sister, since the identity of the four of us left the capital, we have to let go." Qin Xu reminded.
Qin Sang frowned, "Why?" ”
"For safety." Xie Chongning said in due course.
Qin Sang's large number of questions were blocked back by Xie Chongning's words, and he nodded obediently. "Oh, I see, you can call me Ahsan."
Thinking that Ah Sang was his maiden name, Qin Sang suddenly twisted, feeling as if he had taken advantage of Xie Chongning.
"All four horses are sick, and I am afraid that they will have to rest in the city for a while." Although he said this, Qin Xu didn't have any regrets at all, "This is Liangcheng, the closest to the capital, and the beef soup here is quite famous, let's go shopping, and we'll try the beef soup here." ”
Qin Sang smiled and nodded, and suddenly lost the sluggish atmosphere of the morning.
Xu is the reason why he has hardly been out of the house, Qin Sang saw the things in the market, and he felt extremely novel, this one must be touched, and that one must be touched.
"What is this, what is this?" Qin Sang pointed to the sugar man in the hand of an old man, thinking that it was very novel, and without waiting for others to answer, she asked the maid to buy two first.
After the two sugar figures arrived, Qin Sang casually took one and handed it to Mu Yu, but he didn't say anything.
