Chapter 705: Song'an County
The next morning, they deliberately got up a little late, and when they heard the coachman coming downstairs, they got up too.
Freshen up, freshen up, and when I went downstairs, the coachman's breakfast was all over.
didn't hide like last night, and greeted them generously, especially after looking at Zhuang Siyan twice.
Ling Tiancheng quietly protected her behind him, and also asked the junior in the store for breakfast, and ate it in the lobby on the first floor.
The coachman over there ate half of it, so he came over and accosted them: "Girl, where are you going, I didn't expect that we could meet here, and it was quite fateful." ”
Zhuang Siyan smiled vaguely and politely at him, and said to him: "I was originally from looking for relatives, but this generation of people who were in drought a while ago were not able to make a living, and now it is freezing and snowy, and I don't know if my relatives are still in the same place." ”
The coachman pretended to nod: "That's really hard to say, the northwest generation, people are walking around now, and most of them have no fixed place." ”
Zhuang Siyan hurriedly cooperated with him, lowered his head, and made a sad appearance.
When the coachman saw that his words were valid, he said: "But there is a small town called Song'an Town more than fifty miles away, which can be regarded as the gate of the northwest generation, and people who come and go are resting there. ”
Zhuang Siyan thanked him repeatedly: "That's very good." ”
After a brief chat, each side reached its goal.
The coachman hastily used up the breakfast in his bowl, went out and put on his horse, and went on his way.
Zhuang Siyan and Ling Tiancheng glanced at each other, and hurriedly ate the breakfast on the table.
But after the two went out, Zhuang Siyan was still a little uneasy, and asked him softly: "Could he have discovered our abnormality and deliberately pointed us the other way around?" ”
Ling Tiancheng: "It's very likely, so we can't listen to him all, we still have to follow him for a while." ”
In fact, he was not so nervous, Ling's seriousness, but his actions were not in a hurry, he ate breakfast slowly, and he was afraid that Zhuang Siyan would be hungry on the road, so he even asked the inn to make an extra one and hugged it.
Zhuang Siyan looked at him strangely and asked, "It's cold on the road, frozen into pieces, how to eat?" Besides, isn't it only a few dozen kilometers from here to Song'an Town, let's go faster, and soon it will be hot, so we don't need to bring it at all. ”
Ling Tiancheng only replied with a light smile, still wrapped up the food he ate, and brought it to the car.
The coachman's surname is Lu, and he has already put the carriage in place.
Ling said something, and took Zhuang Siyan into the carriage.
The car went all the way to the west, out of this town, and it was still cold and snowy outside, so it was really not suitable for travel.
The speed of the carriage was too slow, and the wheels had to slip from time to time, but fortunately there were trees on both sides of the road, so I could barely tell the difference, and I didn't have to plant myself headlong into the field.
Zhuang Siyan lifted the curtain and looked out: "It's all your fault, I said that I wanted to follow him, but it was too late for us to come out, now people don't know where to go, and the ruts outside are also difficult to distinguish, in case what he said about our road is true or false, this time it will be lost." ”
Ling Yan just looked at her and smiled.
However, the driver kept driving west, and the direction was indeed to Song'an County.
Zhuang Siyan glanced at this a few times, and gradually saw the doorway, and turned back to ask Ling Tiancheng: "What did you do in his car?" ”
Ling Tiancheng let out an "um" sound.
She choked her mouth slightly: "I made a mark, and you also told me, I'm still in a hurry there, what kind of heart do you have?" ”
"It's just that the journey is boring,
I see you're too nervous, so just relax. ”
Zhuang Siyan leaned on the pillar of the car and glanced at him reluctantly: "Your way of relaxing is too special, is it just to make fun of me?" I didn't know you still had this hobby, otherwise I wouldn't have married. ”
Her words successfully darkened Ling Tiancheng's eyes, but soon, a smile appeared in his eyes again: "It won't be like this in the future." ”
Zhuang Siyan was at this time, as long as he saw her smiling, he had a feeling that he was going to be sold.
This guy wasn't like this before, why did he become unfathomable when he went out this time, and he couldn't smile at every turn.
That look doesn't make people feel gentle and amiable at all, but it looks like there is a ghost in the heart.
The wheels were grinding over the ice slag, and the sound was made all the way to Song'an County.
The coachman is Ling Tiancheng's personal guard, and in addition to catching the car, he is also very good in other aspects.
So he looked for the mark that Ling Tiancheng had made in advance, and there was basically no problem, and before it was dark, he almost saw the shadow of the coachman.
He gently knocked on the pillar of the car with his hand and said to the people inside: "Your Majesty, I saw that man's car, he was moving very slowly, and he looked like that, as if he was waiting for us intentionally." ”
At the same time as he spoke, the car in front seemed to have spotted them, so they picked up speed again and entered Song'an County.
Ling Tiancheng didn't look out, and instructed him: "After entering the city, find a bigger inn and don't stay with him." ”
Lao Lu agreed, and urged the horse to move forward quickly.
Song'an County is indeed a more important city in the northwest area, and as long as you come to the northwest, you have to pass through this place.
Although the road is slippery in the snow now, there are no fewer people in the city.
Passers-by wrapped in thick cotton clothes and furs can be seen everywhere along the way, and the shops of the merchants are also open, and the people inside are bustling with people.
Zhuang Siyan loves to be lively, and when he saw this, he couldn't help but poke his head out, and while looking around, he was facing Ling who had suffered a famine here, isn't this very lively, and he has to fight with the capital. ”
Ling Tiancheng only replied to her lightly: "No matter how barren the place is, there are always one or two states and counties that are lively, besides, the drought here has been under control at the end of autumn, and now that it is snowing so heavily, there will definitely be no more drought here in the coming year, and it will be better by then." ”
"Really? How about we come back here next year? ”
Ling Tiancheng: "......"
said that the two of them came to investigate the case together, how could they listen to her, as if they were out to play, and they also set next year's everything.
The coachman had no leisure for them, and after entering the city, he began to pay attention to the inns on the left and right.
Soon, I found a relatively large, relatively clean one.
"Fulai Inn".
There was Xiao Er standing at the door of the store, wearing a short jacket and pants tied in his neck, and when he saw someone looking this way, he immediately went out and asked, "Guest officer, where is the hotel?" Inside please inside please, inside warm. ”
The coachman asked the people inside through the curtain: "Master, ...... here"
Ling Tiancheng was still some distance away from this time, and he had already seen this inn with Zhuang Siyan's hand when he lifted the curtain, so he picked up the coachman's words at this time: "Let's go here." ”
Xiao Er immediately led the way, asked them to park the carriage in the backyard, and was busy shouting inside, a guest was coming.
As soon as Zhuang Siyan got out of the carriage, he brought a face full of novelty, and he couldn't stop looking around.
Ling Tiancheng reminded her beside him: "You are here to find someone, it's okay to look around, but you look like you're watching a play everywhere, you have to take it a little bit, don't be let go."
Look. ”
Zhuang Siyan immediately turned his face to look at him: "Didn't you find a store that is not the same as him?" How could he still find out? ”
Speaking of this, she was even more strange, she simply stopped with her feet, and by the way, she grabbed Ling Tiancheng's sleeve and said, "No, we don't live with him, how do we know what he is going to do?" Haven't you made a mistake? ”
Ling Tiancheng just dragged her hand, lifted the cotton curtain and walked inside: "After running all the way, eat something hot first, and then I'll tell you about it later." ”
In the lobby of the inn, it is even more lively, people from the south to the north and south, all go to the guide to rest, the carriages and horses are placed in the backyard, and people gather in the front yard.
Groups sit around the table, eating hot meals, and discussing the weather and people's customs.
Judging from this alone, it is a prosperous scene, and there is no problem with this town.
As soon as they sat down, Xiao Er's came to entertain them.
The two ordered food, and after Xiao Er left, Zhuang Siyan said softly: "The service here is better than in the capital, and the guys are so enthusiastic." ”
Ling Tiancheng looked around quietly, only "um", and didn't respond much to her words.
After the coachman came back from the backyard, he came over to Ling Tiancheng and replied: "Master, the carriage and horses are all placed." ”
As he spoke, his fingers lightly wiped the corner of the table.
Ling Tiancheng glanced at his hand.
Lao Lu made a gesture to him, saying that there was something wrong with the backyard and asking him to pay attention.
Ling Tiancheng also said "um", replied with a pun on his words and gestures, and then turned his head to Zhuang Siyan and said, "Eat quickly, after eating, we will go out for a walk." ”
This can fall into Zhuang Siyan's arms.
She is clamoring to come out, investigating the case is one of them, it is also true to walk around and take a look, she is holding back in the capital every day, even if Ling Tiancheng does not restrict her from leaving the palace, there is nothing new about playing in the capital for a long time, not to mention the lord next to her.
It's hard to come out once, how can you not play with flowers?
With this purpose, the meal is eaten very quickly.
The hot soup and hot dishes were in the stomach, and the temperature in the inn lobby was a little higher than outside, and even sweat came out.
As soon as Zhuang Siyan finished eating, he wiped his mouth and got up and said, "Let's go, go out and have a look, Lao Lu, are you going out with us, or go up to rest?" ”
Lao Lu hurriedly replied: "I'll go and rest, Lord and Mrs. will go early and come back early." ”
Zhuang Siyan didn't care at all, although it wasn't much to do with the old road, but the two of them would definitely be more comfortable going out to play, so he waved his hand to the coachman and dragged Ling Tiancheng outside.
When she got to the street, she asked him, "Before eating, what did you do with Lao Lu in a comparison?" Is there a problem in this inn? ”
"There is a problem, there are a lot of guys here, in addition to the front, there are more in the back, just now the old road went to the back to park the carriage, and I found that the guys in the backyard have kung fu, so they shouldn't be simple."
"Well, that makes sense, an inn, what do you want so many guys to do? Don't you need money for labor? Zhuang Siyan pondered Ling Tiancheng's words as he walked forward.
Suddenly, he asked, "It can't be that we just caught up with such a black shop, right?" There are so many inns in the whole town, why don't we go to another place? ”
Ling Tiancheng: "The reason why I came out to go was to see what was going on outside, but now that it's getting dark, it shouldn't be easy to see anything." ”
Zhuang Siyan pulled him, and the person had already taken two steps forward: "That's not necessarily, follow me." ”
