Chapter 111: Driven Away Again
The carriage left the capital and drove to the Jiao family's farm in the south, in fact, after Jiao Lihe was assassinated, Jimo and Ao had no connection with the Jiao family, not to mention that things were all over the city at that time, but the investigation did not catch the murderer for three months, so the murder eventually became an unsolved case, and it was over, so he naturally would not have contact with the Jiao family again, if it wasn't for Jiao Yuzhen, how could the first stop out of the palace be the Jiao family's farm?
Although this time it is said that it is a private patrol of micro-services, but the posture is still very grand, the first carriage is made of the best Shenhai cangmu, this sunken sea cangmu is an extremely rare wood, the big ships of the royal family are made of this wood, because even if it falls into the water, it will never sink, it must be strong, and the water is not penetrable, but it is painted with black paint, but people can't see why, if it weren't for Jiao Yuzhen's powerful eyes, naturally he wouldn't have found it, I believe that no one will find such a carriage outside, However, the second carriage was for the maids, the third and fourth carriages were for the guards and the salutes, and the four carriages entered the farm at dusk, and the momentum was extraordinary.
Although the Jiao family is a famous family, the farm is full of countrymen, and at most they have seen the housewife on weekdays, and where have they seen such a formation, so everyone is trembling and watching the four carriages enter the farm.
The current steward of the farm is a man about fifty years old with gray hair, and he is no longer the steward of the king that Jiao Yuzhen had seen at the beginning.
"The younger one is the steward of Zhuangzi, and everyone calls me Liang Bo." Liang Bo bowed and saluted to Xu An, who was the leader, "I don't know how many distinguished guests are ......"
"My old lady is passing by here on business, and I hope to stay here for three days to rest." Xu An said as he handed over a bag of silver, which was enough for their group to stay in the top inn in the capital for ten days!
Liang Bo took the silver with both hands, and after weighing it in his hands, his eyes were one, and he bowed again and again; "There are brothers all over the world, it is natural for the distinguished guests to stay temporarily, and the small ones will immediately let the best courtyard in the Zhuangzi be cleaned up and let the distinguished guests rest."
It is normal for travelers to spend the night through Zhuangzi, and it has been more than half a year since Liang Bo took over the farm, but it is the first time he has met such a generous traveler, so his heart is happy, such a bag of silver is already half a year's salary, but he can earn so much in three days, which is even more cost-effective than opening an inn!
"There's Lao Liangbo." Xu An was not surprised by Liang Bo's enthusiasm, after all, such a large bag of silver could naturally make anyone enthusiastic.
"Don't bother, don't bother." Liang Bo hurriedly turned around and instructed the people below to clean the yard first, and then spoke to Xu An, "It takes some time to clean the yard, you can't let the old lady wait in the carriage, why don't you go to the small house to rest first, and then go to the yard after dinner?" ”
"That's fine." It was already dusk, and it was indeed dinner time, although there were fruits and pastries to be offered to the carriage along the way, but the emperor must not be delayed for dinner, so Xu An nodded, and walked quickly to the first carriage, "Master, madam, dinner time has arrived, why don't you go to Zhuangzi's housekeeper for dinner first, at that time the yard is also cleaned up, how about we go over again?" ”
"Okay, let's arrange it like this."
Jimo and Ao opened the curtain, without anyone's support, jumped off the carriage vigorously, although he was young, but his demeanor was majestic, even if Liang Bo was just a steward of a farm, but at a glance he could see that Jimo and Ao were not only born rich and noble, but also must be a high-powered person, because that kind of temperament is not what businessmen have.
"Come, Ranxin, give me your hand." Jimo and Ao ignored how others looked at him, and he stretched out his hand into the carriage.
A small hand with slender fingers and fair skin stretched out from the carriage and placed it on the broad palm of Jimo and Ao, and then was pulled by Jimo and Ao to take the person out of the carriage, Liang Bo looked at it and found that it was a hairstyle with an unmarried woman, and the clothes on her body were low-key and gorgeous, but it was definitely not a woman's clothing, these people said that it was a lord and a lady, but this was clearly a girl who had just reached the end of her life!
"That ......" A dark-skinned middle-aged man standing next to Uncle Liang was startled when he saw the appearance of the girl who got off the carriage, he was different from Uncle Liang, he was the son of a family in the farm, naturally he had seen the third Miss Jiao Yuzhen who was driven to the village many times, but he was even more aware of the fact that Jiao Yuzhen was kicked out of the Jiao family more than a year ago, and said that she was an ominous person who killed the master of Jiao's mansion!
The countrymen are superstitious, and the middle-aged man has always been that Jiao Yuzhen is an ominous person, so he didn't care about anything, and spoke directly in Liang Bo's ear, and also added fuel to the vinegar to describe the ominous demon Jiao Yuzhen was going to be tied to the shelf and burned to death by the Taoist priest, and as a result, the demon law was out of danger, and in order to take revenge, he also killed his biological father Jiao Lihe!
Liang Bo's face also changed greatly, he weighed the weight of the bag of silver in his hand, and thought in his heart, if he took Jiao Yuzhen and the matter spread to Jiao Mansion, his golden job in charge would definitely be gone, compared to the two, the bag of silver in his hand was nothing at all!
Liang Bo thought of this, and immediately turned his heart sideways, so he took the silver and walked in front of Xu An, Jimo and Ao, and Jiao Yuzhen, and stuffed the silver back into Xu An's hand: "I don't want this silver, you leave quickly, we don't welcome you in Jiao's Farm!" Let's go, let's go! ”
Xu An was pushed hard by Liang Bo, he didn't stand firm for a while, and almost bumped into Jiao Yuzhen behind him, fortunately, Jimo and Ao hurriedly pulled Jiao Yuzhen away and protected her into their arms, and then looked at Liang Bo coldly: "You have already received the money just now, why do you want to go back on your word?" ”
Liang Bo was a little frightened by Jimo and Ao's glare, but he swallowed his saliva and still stood firm, and as soon as he said this, several Chinese characters nearby surrounded him, which gave him some confidence, so he gritted his teeth and met Jimo and Ao's gaze: "This lord may not know that the woman in your arms is an ominous demon, bringing disaster to the country and the people, bringing bad luck to everyone, you don't have to be confused by her!" ”
Jiao Yu Zhen Xing's eyes flashed with a touch of displeasure, she didn't expect that she would be treated like this again as soon as she stepped into Jiao's house, so it seems that the superstition in this world is very powerful, and it is also a good means to use it!
Jiao Yuzhen didn't speak, but Jimo and Ao couldn't stand her being bullied, so they shouted angrily: "Presumptuous!" ”
Xu An naturally heard about Jiao Yuzhen being kicked out of Jiao's house more than a year ago, and he naturally recognized that although the woman in Jimo and Ao's arms had a new identity, it was indeed Jiao Yuzhen, but no matter what Jiao Yuzhen's identity was, she was now the emperor's favorite woman, no matter who she was, she couldn't bully her, otherwise how would the emperor's anger be calmed down?
"The old man is angry." Xu An saw that because of Jimo and Ao's angry shouting, all the guards were brought over, and the scene suddenly got a little out of control, but this was just out of the palace, and the emperor's whereabouts must not be exposed, so he had to appease Jimo and Ao's anger, "These countrymen just recognize the wrong person." ”
"We won't admit our mistakes! She is clearly the former third lady of the Jiao family, Jiao Yuzhen! The man who had initially recognized Jiao Yuzhen spoke loudly.
"You're wrong." Xu An turned around and spoke kindly, "Our lady is from the Isidor country, and she is the aristocratic daughter of the Isidor country, how can she be the third lady of the Jiao family?" If you don't believe me, we can also prove that we also have a female official here who serves in the Ministry of Rites, and our lord invited her to be a translator for the convenience of his wife's travel, and I will go and ask the female official to come over now. ”
Liang Bo looked at everyone and finally nodded.
As soon as Xu An's words fell, a guard standing near the female carriage suddenly understood, and secretly passed the word, and after a while, the female official of the Ministry of Rites changed into the official uniform brought out of the palace and walked down from the second carriage, and she still had the pass waist card of the Ministry of Rites.
"My name is Mao Anhe, and I am a female official of the Ministry of Rites, and this is my waist card." Mao Anhe straightened his official uniform, then took off the waist card from his waist and handed it over.
Liang Bo took the waist card handed over by Mao Anhe, and after carefully checking it, he restrained his arrogance just now, and his face was even more blue and white: "This is indeed the waist card of the Ministry of Rites." ”
"Then that girl......" The man's face was also pale, he had never imagined that there would be two people in the world who were so similar.
"This girl is a noble lady from the country of Isidor, and she is married to this lord, and I have been entrusted to act as an interpreter for them, this lord...... The status is very noble. Mao Anhe is also a very smart woman, and after taking back her waist card from Liang Bo's hand, she also reminded her in a suppressed voice.
Uncle Liang's face was even more ugly, he glared at the man beside him, knowing that he couldn't drive people this time, after all, he still had a female official, and even the female official was just sitting in the second carriage, so the identity of this lord was so noble that he could call the court officials, and there were very few such dignitaries and nobles in the capital, not to mention that he could drive the officials in the court to leave the capital with him?
"Small...... The little one knew that he was wrong and was rude to the distinguished guest. Liang Bo hurriedly bowed to Jimo and Jiao Yuzhen to admit his mistake.
The men on the four sides saw Uncle Liang like this, and saw that the female officials who were rarely seen had come out, and they felt that they had recognized the wrong person just now, so they hurriedly followed Uncle Liang to apologize.
"Don't do that, it's just a misunderstanding." Xu An's heart was also a little relieved, Jimo and Ao said that they would live here for three days, if they were kicked out, they would naturally not be able to live, then he was not able to do things well, fortunately Jimo and Ao let Mao Anhe follow, otherwise they really don't know how to explain Jiao Yuzhen's identity without revealing their identity.
"Please forgive the old lady." Liang Bo was a shrewd person, and hurriedly led everyone to bow down towards Jimo and Ao.
"Humph!" Jimo and Ao Leng snorted, their hearts were still full of anger, Jiao Yuzhen had always been cared for by him as a treasure, but he was bullied again and again, he was the king of a country, did he still have to swallow his anger?
Knowing that Jimo and Ao are not good men and women, Jiao Yuzhen doesn't want to make trouble as soon as she leaves the palace, not to mention that these people in Zhuangzi are just deceived by Old Lady Jiao's Pan, and they are not hateful people, so she gently pulled Jimo and Ao's collar, raised her little face and showed a smile, and then shook her head.
In Jimo and Ao's heart, Jiao Yuzhen has always been a gentle and kind person, so it will not be the slightest surprise to see Jiao Yuzhen so tolerant, and since Jiao Yuzhen doesn't mind, he won't pursue it: "That's it, if you are still so reckless in the future, you will definitely invite the disaster of killing!" ”
"Yes, yes! The little one got it. Liang Bo nodded again and again, and his heart was always put down, if he wasn't just afraid that it would be really hard today!
