Chapter 55: Lost with him
The moat is bustling with people, and snow-white pear blossom petals float on the surface of the river, slowly flowing down from the upper reaches.
There are a lot of pedestrians, men and women, talking to each other with a smile and a smile, which is particularly lively.
"What is she doing in the moat?" Mingran hid under a willow tree, hiding his figure with the long willow branches that drooped.
Mu Yang leaned over and touched his chin with his hand, "Who knows, it must be that there are a lot of people here, and they can see the surrounding situation clearly." ”
He looked at Ming Ran sideways, reached out and quickly took off two hairpins from her head, leaving her only a white jade hairpin, he turned around and stuffed the hairpin to Lan Ling, and then glanced up and down at Ming Ran, and said, "The way you walked on the road before, it was difficult not to be noticed, so it looks much better." ”
Mingran touched the hairpin on his head and pouted disappre","It's my appearance that catches the eye, not makeup." ”
"Yes, yes, my sister's appearance is unparalleled." He smiled and crossed his hands in front of his chest, and looked up slightly at the maid standing alone in front of him.
The maid turned, glanced around, and looked in the direction of the arched bridge.
A picture suddenly flashed in Mu Yang's mind, "I seem to remember where I saw her." ”
"Where?" Mingran asked, looking up.
He lowered his eyes and thought about it, and affirmed, "On the portrait in the fourth uncle's room." ”
Ming Ran frowned, puzzled, "Are you kidding?" My uncle is not close to women, huh? Will he have a portrait of a woman? ”
Mu Yang turned sideways and nodded sharply at her, "What I said is true, once the fourth uncle was drunk in the room, I went in and saw him holding a portrait with my own eyes, and the portrait was a woman, and when the maid in front of me turned around, I remembered it instantly." ”
"Are you sure it's this maid? Could it be that she is the sweetheart of her little uncle? ”
Mu Yang reached out and flicked Mingran's forehead, "What do you want?" The fourth uncle is honest and has a pure character, how can he like a girl whose age is not much different from you. ”
Ming Ran stood on tiptoe and flicked his two fingers back on his forehead, "You said that the portrait of your little uncle is this maid, why do you still rely on me." ”
Mu Yang was helpless, he looked at the maid again, and said with a puzzled face, "But the woman in the portrait of the fourth uncle is really exactly the same as this maid." ”
As if he had suddenly discovered something big, the corners of his mouth rose slightly, and he looked at him with a sly gaze, and said, "It turns out that my little uncle is not married because he has a beloved woman, I will say that he is a good-looking official child, why don't he want to marry a wife and have children, it turns out that there is already someone in my heart, tell me, who is the woman in the portrait?" ”
Mu Yang rolled his eyes a few times, and said angrily, "There are so many people in the world who look similar, don't you and the Queen Mother look the same when you are young?" ”
"I haven't seen my aunt when she was young, have you seen it?" Mingran clasped his hands and raised his eyebrows to look at him.
"Nope."
"Do you recognize the woman in the portrait of your uncle?"
Lan Ling, who was behind him, suddenly pulled his shirt, and whispered, "County Lord, look at the arched bridge"
Ming Ran took a step in the direction of the river, looked past the pedestrians in front of her, looked at the arched bridge, a familiar figure immediately met her eyes, she opened her mouth in shock, "Zhuqing"
"Isn't that your maid?"
"Don't talk." Ming Ran gritted his teeth at Muyang.
Zhuqing walked down the arched bridge, looked cautiously left and right, and walked to the maid with his head down, and the two of them faced the river side by side, not knowing what they were saying.
It wasn't long before they turned and walked down the street by the river.
Yang pulled Ming Ran's wrist, "In order to avoid losing it, Dye Er is with me, Lan Ling follows towards the street over there, if you notice that your whereabouts are discovered, then continue to follow if you are not found." ”
"Yes." Lan Ling nodded, quickened his pace and walked a few steps, quickly disappearing into the crowd.
Muyang and Mingran quietly followed a few feet away.
Zhuqing and the maid walked up the arched bridge and came to the long street.
The streets were bustling with people, and the bustling people were strolling idly through the roads. On both sides are the stalls set up by vendors, all kinds of rouge gouache, pen, ink, paper paintings, etc., shouting and selling endlessly.
Many women wandered around the streets with young children in tow.
Zhuqing and the maid suddenly stopped, glanced back, and Ming Ran immediately faced the stall on the side, and picked up the rouge on the stall at will.
"Girl, my rouge is a first-class product, and the price is cheap, look at this." The vendor picked up another box and handed it to her.
Ming Ran quietly turned his head sideways to look at Zhuqing, and at a glance, there was no familiar figure on the street.
She put down the rouge in her hand, glanced at Mu Yang, and the two quickly dialed the people who were blocking the way in front of them, and walked to the place where Fang Cai Zhuqing stopped and turned back.
Before and after, looking around, I didn't see Zhuqing and the maid.
"What should I do?" Ming Ran looked at Muyang.
Mu Yang looked at the surrounding shops, took two steps forward, returned to Ming Ran's side, and said in a low voice, "Don't startle the snake first, maybe Lan Ling has followed, let's leave here first, we can't be exposed." ”
"Okay."
The carriage in front of the drunken sky building, the many gorgeous carriages parked on the side of the street, the sons of the family walked inside with a happy face.
The roast goose didn't fit into their mouths, and now both of them are hungry.
Mu Yang had just stepped up the stone steps, and Xiao Er, who was leading the guests at the door, stopped him, bowed down and said with a smile, "This son can't help it, the guest table is fully booked today, and there are no empty tables now, please come back later." ”
"Really?" Ming Ran walked to the door and asked towards Xiao Er's displeasure.
When the junior heard a female voice, he raised his head with a smiling face, his smile froze for a moment, and he immediately lowered his head, panicked and said, "Miss Ming, no, no, Lord Fenghua, please come in, the little one will go and make room for you." ”
Mingran waved his hand, "No need, just find a table." ”
Xiao Er nodded again and again, leading the two to find a table inside.
Ming Ran smiled at the corner of his mouth, and teased at Muyang, "I didn't expect it, I won't even give you face as a little two." ”
Mu Yang tugged at the corners of his mouth and smiled faintly.
He is mostly in the mansion on weekdays, and sometimes he will go out of the city for Mu Xu to patrol the mountains on the outskirts of Beijing.
Over the past year, the affairs of the army around the city have kept him and Mu Xu busy, how can he have the opportunity to come to these places for recreation.
During this time, it was also because of King Run's affairs that he was idle in the capital.
Although Ming Ran said that it would be good to find a table casually, Xiao Er didn't dare to do so, and led the two upstairs.
Walking upstairs, Xiao Er pushed open the door, and Muyang entered the house first.
The door to the next private room opened, and a handsome man stepped inside.
Akira was about to step into the house, but he couldn't help but glance sideways at the man who came out next door.
