The fat woman packed Su Mulian into a big box, and then moved the wooden trailer with the old man, at this time, the people of Lintong Town stayed at home, and almost no one walked on the street.

Cheng Aoran searched in the city for a day but didn't find Su Mulian's figure, and even made him wonder, is she here? But this is the only way to go to the capital, and it is also a city that must be passed, according to calculations, Su Mulian must stay here.

He walked down the street depressed and decadent, accompanied by the moonlight, the street was very quiet, and he saw two people in the distance, a thin old man and a fat woman, pushing the cart this way.

When the two parties passed by, they asked about a faint fragrance floating in the air, and Cheng Aoran stopped his feet.

"Stop!"

He looked at the woman in front of him, because it was too late in the night, and he couldn't see her appearance clearly, but the hairpin on her head felt familiar.

The fat woman and the old man stopped obediently, they couldn't help but be a little nervous as thieves, the two looked at each other, and then looked at Cheng Aoran, seeing that his face was unfamiliar, and he was a little less worried.

"It's so late, where are you going?" Cheng Aoran frowned and asked in a low voice.

The fat woman looked at Cheng Aoran with a smile and said softly: "Childe, we are from a tailor's shop, go and deliver clothes!" ”

"Open it and take a look." Cheng Aoran was a little skeptical and said.

When the fat woman heard this, the smile on her face gradually faded, and she said dissatisfiedly: "Childe, I sealed it before I went out, this must be opened by the buyer, otherwise, I won't give the silver, and Childe won't embarrass us." ”

Cheng Aoran suddenly thought that he was in a foreign country, so he didn't want to provoke right and wrong, and besides, these things had nothing to do with him, and the most important thing now was to find Su Mulian's figure.

Then he said no more and turned to leave.

After the fat woman and the old man met, they sped up and pushed away, and came to the backyard of Yixiang Courtyard, where Wu's mother, who was dressed up in fancy clothes, had been waiting for a long time, twisted her waist and walked over, and said with some dissatisfaction.

"I've been waiting for you for a long time, and I thought you weren't coming! Really, there is no one to greet you before, so it would be bad if the girls quarreled. ”

The fat woman said helplessly: "When I came over, I met a nosy man and asked me to open the box?" Didn't you wrestle with him for a while? ”

Mother Wu shook her veil: "Okay, how about the girl sent today?" ”

"Don't worry, it's absolutely beautiful!" The old man said with a smile, then opened the box, only to see Su Mulian curled up in a coma.

Mother Wu leaned down to take a closer look, and nodded with great satisfaction: "She looks really good, you can let her be the top card, and she won't get into trouble, right?" ”

"Just a passerby, don't worry." The fat woman waved her hand indifferently and said, "Since you are satisfied, you have to add some money." ”

Wu's mother listened to it and said with some dissatisfaction: "How can you temporarily raise the price of a good deal?" What's more, I don't know if it's clean or not, if I keep it for the first time, how about giving you an extra five taels? ”

"Okay then, check it out." The fat woman didn't want to argue too much, so she hurriedly urged.

Mother Wu ordered two more wives to carry Su Mulian in, and after some inspection, she came out and nodded to Mother Wu, and then she took out twenty taels of silver and gave it to the fat woman, and the transaction was completed.

Cheng Aoran on the other side always felt that something was wrong with the two people of Fang Cai, especially where had he seen the headdress on the fat woman's bun, and finally a name came to mind.

Emerald!

The hair is wearing Xiao Cui's headdress, Xiao Cui is the maid he personally picked, Su Mulian pretended to be Xiao Cui and escaped, he knew Su Mulian, he would be extra cautious in everything, not to mention pretending to escape.

In this way, maybe the person in the box is Su Mulian!

Thinking of this, Cheng Aoran was angry, he knew that he insisted on letting the fat woman open the box at that time, but now he didn't know where to find the two, so after thinking about it, he still went to find Liu Yuanxiang, the local magistrate.

He couldn't care that it was too late, so he went to the prefect's mansion and looked at the gate.

"Who!" There was a lazy and sleepy sound inside, and then he opened the door and said, "Knock on the door in the middle of the night, looking for death!" ”

"I want to see Liu Yuanxiang." Cheng Aoran didn't bother to say much to him, so he said straight to the point.

The person on duty sneered disdainfully: "How can the magistrate say that he can see it when he sees it?" Let's go back to sleep at night, neurotic! ”

Cheng Aoran's eyes became sharp, he pulled out the accessories around his neck, and said angrily in a low voice: "Hurry up and take me to see Liu Yuanxiang!" ”

The subordinate was trembling with fright, his body trembled non-stop, and he nodded hurriedly.

"Be honest!" Cheng Aoran warned sharply.

In this way, the subordinate on duty took Cheng Aoran to Liu Yuanxiang's door, and after he knocked the subordinate unconscious, he kicked open the door.

Cheng Aoran walked to the side of the bed, and looked at the man lying on it, who thought he was about fifty years old, slightly fat, and was awakened by Fang Cai's voice, and the woman next to him was also so frightened that she drilled into his arms.

"Dare to make a fool of the people, dare to break into the mansion of Benzhi County at night, how many lives do you have?" Liu Yuanxiang, who was forced to be calm, said angrily.

Cheng Aoran laughed sarcastically, ten magistrates, nine fat, he took out the token and held it in front of his door, and said coldly: "I am the general of Zhenyuan." ”

Liu Yuanxiang saw the token clearly, his face was already there, he quickly got out of bed and knelt on the ground, and respectfully bowed: "The lower official sees the general!" ”

"Get up." Cheng Aoran said, he looked at the frightened woman on the bed, who was wrapped in a quilt and stayed in the corner.

"I don't know what the general is doing when he comes to visit late at night?" Liu Yuanxiang, who stood up, became respectful, bent over, and asked with a smile.

Cheng Aoran put away his long sword and said, "Princess Zhaohua is missing. ”

Liu Yuanxiang's face was shocked, and he thought to himself, shouldn't these two be in Anchang Town? How did you end up here?

Cheng Aoran saw that he was affectionate, and seemed to guess what he was thinking in his heart, and asked angrily with dissatisfaction: "Are you doubting the identity of General Ben?" ”

"The lower officials don't dare!" Liu Yuanxiang hurriedly replied.

"Are there any particularly fat women in town?" Cheng Aoran asked.

Liu Yuanxiang pulled out a flattering smile and said, "There are several!" ”

"General Ben suspects that Princess Zhaohua has been abducted by them, or will do some improper deals!" Cheng Aoran's voice was serious, and he warned in a low voice, "But General Ben dares to guarantee that Princess Zhaohua must be in Lintong Town." ”

"With your words, the general, the lower officials will order people to strictly guard the city tomorrow, and those who go out of the city will be investigated one by one!" Liu Yuanxiang didn't dare to say sluggishly, sighing unlucky in his heart.

Cheng Aoran nodded in satisfaction, said a soft "um", and added.

"If Princess Zhaohua has three long and two short, you won't be able to eat and walk around."
