Chapter 178 People in Chuzhou
Qin Yan frowned and entered the door.
After a while, there was a knock on the door twice, "Lord Wang, the tea is ready, can I come in?" Cang Yulin asked cautiously outside the door.
Qin Yan covered the unbuttoned robe again, and agreed in a cold voice.
"Lord Wang, you drink a cup of tea first, and the bathing water will come immediately." Cang Yulin saw that Qin Yan's clothes were scattered, and knew that he was going to change his clothes, so he moved closer to him in small steps, and whispered, "King, lord, I will serve you to change your clothes!" ”
The Cang family is the ruler of Chuzhou City, and his father Cangduan is the head of this generation of Qingshanmen, with a huge family, noble and strict rank. He is the eldest grandson, and he has been cultivated as the future patriarch of the Cang family since he was a child, and he is not as noble as the uncle of the sect.
Although he is only 11 years old, he can already take charge of himself.
Three years ago, he heard Qin Yan's story in the library, and since then he has only remembered Qin Yan as his respect; When he met today, he really thought of all the ways he could think of at a young age, just to be able to follow Qin Yan.
Qin Yan glanced at him.
Cang Yulin suddenly had no hands and feet to rest again, and he didn't dare to move or leave.
"Say, why do you want to follow this king?" Qin Yan locked his eyebrows and asked him impatiently.
Cang Yulin peeked at him, and then lowered his head and muttered, "I want to worship you as a teacher......"
Qin Yan coldly rejected him, "This king doesn't accept disciples!" He looked at Cang Yulin seriously, "Qingshanmen's martial arts are unfathomable, you don't have to look at a mountain high, it's most suitable to concentrate on practicing this martial arts." ”
"I, I want to watch the prince learn the art of war." He still looked at Qin Yan's eyes without giving up, "Lord Wang, I will definitely work very hard, you must accept me!" Cang Yulin was afraid that Qin Yan would refuse, so he fell to his knees with a thud, kowtowing and interceding for himself.
Qin Yan's fingers burst out with an internal force, lifting his small body so that he couldn't kowtow anymore, and said in a condensed voice, "Go back, don't come again!" ”
Cang Yulin's eyes were full of tears, and he stubbornly refused to get up.
Qin Yan took his collar and sent him to the door, and instructed the guy who came to deliver water, "Good life send him back!" ”
The guy hurriedly poured the water into the bathtub behind the screen, trotted out to pull Cang Yulin, and begged in a low voice, "Master Cang, just go back, what kind of identity is the Tiger King, how can you be so foolish?" If it really doesn't look like it, your family will be unlucky. ”
Cang Yulin lowered his head and said nothing, holding back the tears in his eyes, and went out with his guy step by step.
After bathing, Qin Yan's wine had almost woken up, and the secret guard went back and forth one after another, and he didn't stop until the third watch. He lay on the bed, staring at the top of the tent and sleepless.
In the past five days, there has been no news of her, and Qin Yan can't help but feel a little anxious. For some reason, he was afraid that this half-moon relationship was his illusion, and the delicate and gentle her was completely different from the one he knew before.
Someone seemed to be coming in the lobby, and it was quiet after a while. Qin Yan didn't feel sleepy at all, he got up and put on his robe again, and floated out of the window.
At the end of the fourth watch, half of the people on the street were gone, and the lively and noisy Dengshi Street during the day was also asleep at this time, and he followed the road he had walked during the day to the direction of Qingjing Winery.
The three-story building of Qingqi Winery was not lit at all, and he bypassed the front door of the winery and followed the alley to the backyard wall. Sure enough, the backyard was connected to a cross-courtyard, and a two-story small building was built in the cross-courtyard.
He collected the sound of walking, jumped up to the terrace on the second floor with excellent light skills, and listened carefully to the window: there was no one in the main room, and there was a very shallow breathing sound in the room to the west, and his martial arts were not weak.
He knew that the man was not the person he was looking for, but he still loved it and did not want to leave.
The fifth watch drum sounded, Qin Yan stepped on the corner of the building to borrow strength, and his body shot like an arrow from the string to the roof of a shop in front of him, and then disappeared among the heavy houses after a few ups and downs.
After returning to Tianyi Pavilion, he fell back to the bed in a lot of emotion, but he didn't close his eyes until someone knocked on the door. Looking at his empty arms, he missed the satisfaction of that soft body in his arms more and more.
The person who knocked on the door was very patient, knocking a few times from time to time and stopping for a while, and then knocking again after a long time.
Qin Yan was unhappy when he heard him mutter, "Jiang Tao, don't you want your dog's paws anymore?" ”
"Lord Wang, you finally woke up, I'm here!" Jiang Tao heard Qin Yan's voice, and shouted happily outside the door, "The shopkeeper said that you came back last night, and you didn't open the door for me after knocking for so long." He actually had a little grievance, and he was no big or small.
Qin Yan got up and opened the door for him with only his middle coat, "Get in, and then you will cut off your tongue!" ”
"Lord Wang, you are good, you don't let the little one follow when you leave, you don't know how worried the old lady is, I come to ask several times a day, I don't dare to see her old man." He laughed, "Haha, fortunately, I was clever and sneaked out." ”
Qin Yan waited for him to get dressed, glanced at him and asked, "How do you know that Ben Wu is in Chuzhou?" ”
"What Miss Wei said ......" Jiang Tao said happily, and suddenly stopped talking in the middle of speaking, and explained: "Miss Wei is on an errand in the palace, she heard that the prince is in Longquan Town, and the little one went to Longquan Town. As a result, Xiang Hou said that you came to Chuzhou, and the little one had to go to Chuzhou overnight. ”
Qin Yan glared at Jiang Tao and didn't speak.
"Wang, Wangye, Miss Wei, she is also here......" Jiang Tao pointed to the room diagonally opposite, "I only arrived at the fourth watch last night, so I didn't bother you." ”
Qin Yan didn't even bother to give him a reproachful look, and ordered, "Go down and prepare breakfast." He cleaned his hands and face in the basin brought by Jiang Tao, and sat at the window reading a book.
Jiang Tao wasn't sure if he was angry, so he peeked once before touching his nose and went downstairs.
As soon as he left with his front foot, Wei Wanwan entered Qin Yan's house.
The sudden aroma of fat powder that suddenly wafted close made Qin Yan twist his eyebrows unhappily. He flipped through the book indifferently, and the aura of a person who was not allowed to enter became thicker and heavier.
"Lord Wang, it's late!" Wei Wanwan gave a salute, she took off her armor and changed into a bright daughter's outfit: the pink brocade robe was covered with transparent veil, half-concealed and half-reflected, and she was infinitely shy.
Qin Yan didn't turn his head, his eyes didn't leave the book, and he only said lightly: "Hmm!" He knew it.
Wei Wanwan had a very charming smile on her lips, Qin Yan did not refuse, which meant that she was allowed to exist. She quickly rolled up her sleeves and began to tidy up the room, first folded a messy bedding, then picked up Qin Yan's clothes and folded them, and spoke to Qin Yan softly, "Lord Wang, before leaving, the old lady prepared some clothes for me to carry, I'm afraid you won't be used to wearing needlework outside." ”
Qin Yan didn't seem to hear it, threw down the book and walked to the door.
"Lord Wang, do you want to go downstairs for dinner?" Wei Wanwan walked quickly to Qin Yan's side, "There are many people downstairs, so let's use it upstairs, I'll let Jiang Tao bring it up." She spoke and walked out the door.
Qin Yan's brows tightened more and more, and his eyebrows locked up. In the past few years, he was ignored by her many refusals, and he was tired of staying by his side. He has a knot in his heart, he doesn't fight with her, he just doesn't go into the house.
Now, that ghost girl's scheming can't even guess herself, if she separates again because of Wei Wanwan, she won't have to live. Qin Yan was very nerve-wracking, and he was powerless against Wei Wanwan's obsession and Weiyang's determination.
Not long after, Jiang Tao entered the door with breakfast, and Wei Wanwan, who came in later, also brought a lot of food in his hands.
Jiang Tao put all the dishes in his hand on the table, and took Wei Wanwan's tray again, "Miss Wei, sit down, you and the prince eat first while it's hot, I'll just come." ”
Qin Yan sat at the table with a gesture of rejection, eating breakfast slowly and neatly, and even the atmosphere was stingy.
Wei Wanwan didn't have the courage to sit in front of Qin Yan without permission to share breakfast, she was embarrassed and polite, "Don't worry, it's not too late to wait for the prince to run out." Her fingers tightly grasped the edge of the tray and didn't let go, "Jiang Tao, you go make tea first, I have me here!" ”
After a meal, Qin Yan drank half a cup of tea before getting up and walking out.
Wei Wanwan hurriedly glanced at Jiang Tao, and Jiang Tao followed knowingly, "Lord Wang, do you want to prepare a horse?" ”
"No, don't follow me!" Qin Yan walked out of the door, ran into Cang Yulin head-on when he came out of Tianyi Pavilion, and said bluntly without waiting for him to speak: "Go to your house, let's go!" ”
Qin Yan spent a whole day in the City Lord's Mansion, intentionally or unintentionally showing everyone the fact that others were in Chuzhou. After leaving for dinner, Cang Xiuwen sent out of the gate and told Cang Yulin, "Good students send the prince back to Tianyi Pavilion, don't be crooked!" ”
Cang Yulin nodded aggrievedly and didn't say a word from beginning to end.
"There is no need to send ......," Qin Yan said indifferently, and his figure suddenly burst out, blowing through the market like a gust of wind and disappearing in front of everyone's eyes. The slender figure in white in the distance, could it be that she has arrived?
Cang Xiuwen opened his mouth widely, only this extreme light skill was incomparable to his own sect.
"Grandpa......" Cang Yulin looked at the direction where Qin Yan disappeared with great admiration, as if he had made up his mind, and muttered to himself: "I must worship the Tiger King as a teacher, and no one will try to stop me." ”
When it got closer, Qin Yan realized that he was wrong. Although the scholar in the white robe was not bad, it was not her. At least there is no charm of her, the kind of agility that she can't hide no matter how easy she is, whether it is Miss Mujia Qingyan under heavy makeup, or the young master of the beggar gang who dresses as a man; The sense of familiarity that even if his eyes are wrong, his heart will not admit it.
He was a little lonely, looked up at Tianyi Pavilion not far away, and didn't want to go back.
Turning around and walking out of the lively Dengshi Street, I unconsciously came to the door of Qingjing Winery again. He didn't hesitate for a moment, as if he had entered his own house, his steps were brisk and casual.
"Lord Wang!" Yan Mingwu greeted him, smelled the wine on his body, and took the initiative to speak, "You upstairs, please, make a pot of tea for you downstairs to sober up." ”
Qin Yan nodded politely, "There is a hard shopkeeper to worry about!" Intentionally or unintentionally, he glanced at the courtyard outside the small door behind the counter and walked up the stairs to the third floor.
Although Yan Mingwu didn't know the relationship between his master and the Tiger King, Lord Xin had explained, but whenever the Tiger King came to the door, it was equivalent to the master coming in person, and it was right to serve carefully.
A pot of tea was crippled, and Qin Yan got up to say goodbye.
Tianyi Pavilion is still lively, drinking orders, shouting five and six. He entered the door with a cold air emanating from his bones, and Jiang Tao was waiting at the door with the Dongfang shopkeeper.
"My lord, you're finally back!" Jiang Tao hurriedly stepped forward, "Lord Wang, go upstairs first!" He looked meaningfully at the stairs.
Qin Yan nodded lightly and went upstairs first.
Jiang Tao glanced at the shopkeeper in the East, followed Qin Yan upstairs, and trotted forward to push open the door, "Lord Wang, Lu Shaoqian has news that Liangzhou City is besieged. ”
"What about people?" Qin Yan asked.
Jiang Tao didn't understand who he was looking for for a while, "Who?" Wanwan girl has been busy all day today, should she go back and rest? He turned around and looked at the room where Wei Wanwan lived opposite, and just wanted to count a few words from the prince, when he suddenly saw Qin Yan's eyes with extreme coldness, he didn't dare to make a mistake, and hung his head silently.
Outside the window, there was a strong wind coming from the room, facing Qin Yan's room with the lights on.
Qin Yan grabbed the window, and the visitor jumped in through the window he had opened.
"Tiger King, my master has a letter here!" The man was dressed in a night coat, covered his face with a black scarf, and there was a mark on the cuffs, which was somewhat similar to Mu Qingyan's sticking on the lintel of the house in Longquan Town.
The man took out a thin piece of letterhead from his chest and handed it to Qin Yan with both hands, then bowed respectfully, and rolled out of the window to blend in with the vast night.
"Go down!" Qin Yan was not in a hurry to read the letter, but urged Jiang Tao to leave.
Jiang Taozhi made his master unhappy tonight, and he didn't dare to talk more, so he withdrew from the door in a huff.
Qin Yan couldn't wait to open the envelope, shook off the folded stationery, and there were few words on it, but all of them were military aircraft: There were more than 10,000 troops outside Liangzhou City, and the siege was not dangerous; There is no danger in Longmen County; There were no casualties in Jincheng, but there was a fake big insect in the city lord's mansion.
There was no title on the letter, and there was no signature.
Qin Yan still folded the letter paper and put it in the envelope as it was, and a touch of pleasure thawed the chill between his eyebrows. Standing at the window blowing the hot and humid wind in the mountains, although he didn't say a word about what he wanted to know, he felt comfortable for no reason.
When the sky is slightly bright, the drizzle is like silk, lingering and falling.
Jiang Tao came to knock on the door again: "Lord Wang, Bai Yanfeng Bai has arrived." ”
"Hmm!" Qin Yan agreed, got up and opened the door.
Bai Yanfeng knelt on one knee: "Lord Wang, your subordinates are late, please surrender your guilt!" ”
"Get up!" Qin Yan looked at him with a tired face, calculating that the day should be half a day late, but he was in a hurry.
"Have you ever settled the bill?"
Bai Yanfeng got up after hearing the order, "Back to the prince, I was camping when I entered the city, and I could raise the stove before the beginning of the day." ”
"Okay, this king will give you three days to rest, and you can go down and rest." Qin Yan never said a word of nonsense in front of his subordinates, either rewarded or punished, and had strict military discipline.
Jiang Tao took out a gorgeous royal blue moire brocade robe from the cabinet, "Lord Wang, the little one has changed your clothes, and the shopkeeper has prepared breakfast, but you want to go to the camp outside the city?" ”
"Hmm!" After Qin Yan finished washing, he saw Jiang Tao holding his clothes, so he took off the piece on his body. But when Jiang Tao got very close, he smelled a fragrance emanating from the clothes, and he instantly twisted his eyebrows, "Where did this clothes come from?" "The latest chapter of the "Jinyue Claw Book House" is free to read for the first time.
