Unexpectedly, in the end, Brother Lin was still dragged down by me, and I didn't do this smart thing once or twice, and I always lifted a stone and hit myself in the foot. In the past, we were lucky, but this time we are surrounded by swords and guns, like an iron wall, how can we get out safely?

The black-faced leader looked down at me with a stiff face, and even his eyes could not detect the slightest abnormality. He waved his hand behind him, and all the soldiers shouted in unison, shook the tip of the spear, and slashed through a dazzling silver light, which was violent.

For a moment, the tension was tense, and the air froze.

Pedestrians passing by are afraid of being dragged along, and those who dodge far away can't help but look here.

The canopy carriage that had passed me earlier also stopped and stopped not far away without fear of death.

I was shocked into a cold sweat, and my heart tightened, but I had to take a step forward.

"My lord, this notice says that the two of us are pretending to be officials of the imperial court, dare to ask who we are pretending to be? And how do we impersonate? You have to give me an explanation, you can't arrest people indiscriminately, right? I still had a hint of luck in my heart, and I had the courage to retort.

He didn't look at me, and coldly spit out three words: "Xuzhou City." ”

Sure enough, it was the dog official who sued first, and I snorted coldly: "We have never mentioned a word about our identity, and others misunderstand us because they are clumsy, how can they blame us?" ”

"Strong words!" The leader of the black-and-red-faced hall glanced at me, still expressionless, unable to see what he was thinking, but this time he said with a face: "I am only responsible for arresting criminals, and the trial is a matter of Dali Temple." ”

Brother Lin secretly tugged at my cuffs, looking unhurried and calm.

I am anxious, Rao is my shallow knowledge, and I also know that Dali Temple is not a good place to go. It's not like Xuzhou City, where we can run away if we want to. The officials there tried all the major and special cases of the DPRK and China, and I heard that if you enter the door of Dali Temple, you will be stripped of your skin if you don't die, but you can't joke.

Seeing the leader's iron-faced and selfless cold expression, which was really not accommodating, I had to beg in a low voice:

"Even if we unintentionally pretended to be something we can't provoke, Brother Lin was seriously injured and unconscious at the time, everything was my own idea, and it had nothing to do with him, and I asked the adults to be aware and not to affect the innocent."

The adult was obviously not good at words, he was a clumsy person, and after listening to my pleading, he was silent for a long time before he held back a sentence: "Keep this to Dali Temple and say it." ”

But this sentence is the most effective, blocking my mouth and can't refute it, if it's really a show to meet a soldier, it can't be explained.

Brother Lin patted me on the shoulder soothingly: "Don't worry. ”

"How can you not be in a hurry?" My eyes were a little red: "This disaster is caused by me, dragging you to suffer this prison in vain!" ”

Brother Lin smiled, gentle and kind: "It's just that some people are cautious and angry that I used his name to deliberately put on a posture and joke with you." ”

"Jokes?" I looked at Brother Lin suspiciously: "What kind of joke?" ”

"I, Lin Mou, am just a grass citizen, Lin Mosheng's words, few people know these words, and the prefect of Xuzhou has never heard you and me mention it, where does the name on this notice come from?" Brother Lin shook his head helplessly and smiled bitterly: "He was also too stingy, and ordered Mu Lin to monitor all the way, but he didn't know the reason, and he was still angry and teasing you and me." ”

I suddenly realized: "You mean that this matter is not a complaint from the Yangzhou prefect, but a ......"

Brother Lin nodded tacitly.

I turned my head and squinted at the leader, who uncomfortably put his fist to his lips and coughed lightly, his eyes twinkling to look at me.

I waved to him and smiled brightly, the sun was shining.

He tensed his face, forced himself to make a proud momentum, and asked pretendly, "What to do?" “

"If you don't come, I'll shout! Don't blame me for not showing you mercy. I bared my teeth and threatened.

His body on horseback stiffened, his eyes fluttered, and he should have been a little weak.

I smiled mysteriously and raised my voice: "I just want to greet you, is your diarrhea better?" Are the fried beans I gave you delicious? ”

I kept my eyes on his face, trying to capture every subtle change in his expression. His body was obviously shaking, and the muscles on his face twitched, and his complexion was a little unpleasant.

Sure enough, it's this piece of wood!

I immediately pointed at him unceremoniously and scolded: "Dead Mulin, just your face on the coffin board, you don't have folds for joy and anger, even if you change your appearance and change color, I know you!"

Didn't I just add some ingredients to the fried beans? As for the people who came here to deliberately play tricks on me, I was so frightened that my legs cramped. Are you chewing on the root of your tongue again, and whose idea is this? ”

The surrounding soldiers looked at each other, and finally someone couldn't help but laugh out loud.

He grabbed his hair embarrassedly, turned over and dismounted neatly, and took off a mask from his face, revealing his original appearance, who was Mu Lin?

He waved his hand and motioned to the soldiers around him to put away their silver guns, walked up to me, waved his hand at me, and said respectfully: "Mu Lin welcomes Miss Qingwu into Beijing." ”

He was so polite all of a sudden, completely changed his routine, and I felt that I had gone too far for a while, and scolded him in front of so many of his subordinates, which made him lose his majesty.

I put away my posture, and I couldn't continue to get to the bottom of it, so I smiled wryly, and asked with a red face, "Did your master let you come?" Where is he now? ”

Mu Lin glanced behind me with a strange expression, coughed lightly, and hesitated: "It was my master who sent me to greet Miss Qingwu, but he was busy with court affairs, and he couldn't get out for a while, so it was difficult to have time." ”

I was about to ask again, when the crowd that had carefully gathered around broke out into a cheer, full of surprise: "Miss! That's Miss back! ”

As soon as the words fell, a petite figure squeezed in desperately from behind the pile, rushing towards me quickly, and then suddenly stopped in hindsight, looked around, and froze in place, at a loss, a pair of hairy black eyes full of horror.

"Look at your little look!" I laughed, then turned to Mu Lin and said, "Trouble the big leader of Mu Lin to withdraw his subordinates, it's scary." ”

Mu Lin nodded, and the soldiers behind him changed formations in unison and stood solemnly aside.

The little one pouted, cried out with a "wow", and threw herself into my arms aggrievedly.

Choking for a long time.

Hui'er and Lan'er behind me also heard the sound, surrounded me and asked for warmth, looked carefully, and counted if I was missing a few hairs.

It turned out that after Xiao Xiang'er and Hui'er Lan'er entered Beijing, they were worried about my safety. He stayed at the gate of the city early in the morning, and it was several days when the gate was closed at dusk.

Today, seeing a large number of officers and soldiers leaving the city in a hurry, they heard the people around them talking about it, saying that they were rounding up the bandits, and hurriedly flashed to the side, not daring to come forward to watch.

Later, Xiao Xiang was really curious, went out of the city to look, and couldn't help but be overjoyed to see me, and rushed over recklessly, ignoring the officers and soldiers around him.

The Hou Ye's mansion has been full of etiquette for several days, and every day he even sent a carriage and a grandmother to meet me at the gate of the city. When he saw me, he stepped forward and bowed down in a regular manner, without the slightest slackness, not too enthusiastic, neither humble nor arrogant, and quite appropriate.

I was embarrassed to work on Mu Lin any longer, so I asked him to thank me for my kindness, and turned around and got into the carriage of the Hou Ye's Mansion. Mama and Hui'er sat on foot or in the car.

According to the advice of my aunt at home, An An sat in the car separately, not daring to look around curiously, not wanting to lose his dignity in front of the people of the Hou Yefu and make people laugh.

So I don't know how far I went, but I only heard the gradual noise of cars and horses outside the car, and the voices of people were boiling, which was even more lively than the market in Yangzhou City.

Suddenly, I heard the shouting of dragging and singing outside the car, vaguely as if it was a bean noodle donkey rolling, after all, I couldn't hold back my curiosity, and secretly lifted the curtain and looked outside.

Sure enough, there are red, green, and green snacks on the counter at the entrance of the shop, all kinds of tricks, which are mouth-watering. I just don't know which one is the donkey rolling that Liang Ci said, pea yellow?

I was about to lower the curtain, but I happened to see Xiao Xiao jumping out of the car and waving to the opposite shop. One of them stood up from under the wall, patted the dirt on his buttocks, and ran to talk to her.

The man turned sideways to me, with a dirty face, a thin body, unkempt hair, ragged clothes, and probably not very old. It looks familiar, but I can't remember where I've seen it.

Later, when the carriage drifted away, Lan'er raised her voice twice, and then she caught up with her breathlessly.

The carriage drove slowly through several bustling streets and finally stopped in front of a tall mansion.

The plaque at the head of the door has four gilded characters: Anle Hou Mansion.

I heard that the Hou Yefu has been in decline for a long time, but what I saw was unexpected, and it was completely different from what I thought. Just a pair of Shaking Door Beasts at the door, tall, majestic, and with hideous expressions, made people a little daunting. The vermilion gate, glazed courtyard wall, and gilded characters are completely different from the graceful and subtle architectural style of Yangzhou City Courtyard. Although there are many wealthy families in Yangzhou City, there are regulatory requirements, and the courtyard walls and houses cannot be built too tall, and there is less coercion.

When I entered the house, there were already people rushing into the house to spread the word, Qingqing heard the news and couldn't wait to go out of the second door to greet me, inevitably another cold and warm meal, and then took me to the main hall to meet Qingwan, now Mrs. Hou.

Qingwan is high on the chair of the Taishi in the main hall, full of flowers and jewels. is supporting his forehead with his hand, as if he is pretending to sleep. When he saw me, he didn't say anything, only raised his eyelids and glanced at me coldly.

She looks very different from Qingyin. The body is plump and pancreas, slightly rich, and the skin is white and tender. The tips of the eyes are slightly provoked, and the eye waves are circulating, arrogant and arrogant, and it is a little similar to the seventh aunt.
