Under the candlelight, Shangguan Jingyu rarely gobbled up such a gobble, rowed the white rice in the bowl, smiled at the simple peasant couple, and smiled, "Thank you." ”

Fortunately, it was the owner of the farmer, a pair of old people.

The old woman, who was over fifty years old, pushed a plate of vegetables down in front of her, and said with a slightly hoarse voice, "Little girl, how long have you not eaten?" ”

Shangguan Jingyu's face was slightly embarrassed, "It's just a day or two." ”

She naturally didn't dare to tell them, because she followed Li Yi on the road, she didn't eat all the things he handed over, and quietly discarded them. The heart of defense is indispensable, she will never eat a mouthful of Li Yi's food or drink a sip of water. It is better to be hungry than to fall into his way.

Because once, she did see Li Yi sprinkle something on the dry food.

That time, she dropped something on the ground and avoided it safely.

"Girl?" The old farmer shouted, "What's the matter?" Not enough food? ”

Shangguan Jingyu came back to his senses in amazement, and hurriedly shook his head, "No, I'm just ...... It's just homesick. After a pause, she said again, "Ah Gong, how far is it to go to Jade Dragon Mountain here?" ”

"Jade Dragon Mountain?" The old woman said, "This is Xiangye Town, if you go to Yulong Mountain, it is quite far, rely on the strength of your feet, it is estimated that it will take a day to arrive." ”

Hearing this, Shangguan Jingyu frowned.

His feet are not good, and if he says that it is a day, he is a normal person.

What about she......

I'm afraid that one day is not enough, so won't someone catch up?

But she came out in a hurry, and she didn't bring any money at all, how could she hire a car? In this way, she is embarrassed, how can this be good?

"Girl, what are you doing in Jade Dragon Mountain? There is nothing to see there. The old farmer laughed.

Shangguan Jingyu put down the chopsticks in his hand, "I'm going to visit relatives." ”

Hearing this, the old woman glanced at her husband, and the old peasant said, "In this case, it is easy to do." ”

She was slightly stunned, "Ah Gong, what do you mean by this?" ”

The old farmer said, "The two of us have no children and no daughters, and we rely on a few acres of thin land to grow vegetables to survive." Ming'er, those hawkers will come to collect vegetables, and the carriage will go to Yulong Mountain to supply vegetables for the laborers of Yulong Mountain. If you don't feel dirty, I can give you a ride, and I'll go and talk to the man with you. ”

"Thank you, Grandpa." Shangguan Jingyu naturally couldn't help but be overjoyed.

She doesn't know how to ride a horse, and she doesn't have any money with her, so it's naturally great to be able to hitchhike to Yulong Mountain.

It doesn't matter if it's dirty or not, just get there.

At this time, we can only settle.

The old woman cleaned up a room so that Shangguan Jingyu could sleep peacefully.

Shangguan Jingyu was naturally grateful, thinking that when Yulong Mountain came back to Xiangye Town, he would have to thank these two old men. But now, she can't give anything but thank you.

Early the next morning, Shangguan Jingyu got up early and waited at the door.

Sure enough, a horse-drawn cart came in the distance. She watched as the old farmer said a few words to the merchant who was leading the horse, then beckoned to her, and ran quickly.

"Girl, you just follow him, and I can send you into the Jade Dragon Mansion." The old farmer smiled kindly and said to the vendor, "You can do a favor and take care of more along the way." ”

The vendor nodded again and again, "We have been trading for so many years, you can rest assured!" ”

After saying goodbye to the peasant couple, Shangguan Jingyu breathed a sigh of relief. The cart was full of vegetables, and Shangguan Jingyu sat at the back of the cart, his legs hanging in the air, holding the handrails of the cart, and he felt a rare sense of freedom.

It turns out that life outside is so comfortable.

Carefree and really comfortable.

The car left Xiangye Town and staggered towards the Jade Dragon Mansion.

The farmer couple turned around in the room, the back door closed slightly, and someone walked in slowly after a while. He was dressed in black and masked, but dressed in luxurious clothes. Looking around the room, the sharp gaze seems to be searching for something.

"This lord, according to your orders, the girl has been sent away safely, so will you give us the rest of the bounty?" The old peasant's face was wrinkled, but he smiled plainly. He glanced back at his daughter-in-law, thinking that the husband and wife could finally live a good life, and they finally didn't have to get up early and sell vegetables at night.

"Silver, of course." The man in black took out two ingots from his arms and put them on the table, "Take it!" ”

The old farmer was overjoyed and quickly stepped forward, "Thank you......"

Before the word "master" could be spoken, his body fell to the ground. Blood was dripping from his neck, and a slender wound came from the cold sword in his hand.

"Old man?" The old woman exclaimed, turned around and tried to run out of the door.

Before he could reach the door, he fell to the ground.

A single sword killed him, severing the aorta in his neck.

Blood kept pouring out of the old woman's neck, and her eyes widened in disbelief, unwilling and resentful.

The man in black stuffed the ingots into the hands of the dead farmer, and then slowly walked up to the old woman, his tone cold to the bone, "In this world, only the mouth of the dead is the most reliable. Blame, you shouldn't have met her. ”

As the sound fell, he took a step, stepped out of the old woman's body, and disappeared outside the door.

Inside the house, it was bloody and miserable.

And these, Shangguan Jingyu was unaware.

"By the way, this girl, what are you doing in the Jade Dragon Mansion?" The vendor asked.

Shangguan Jingyu turned his head, "I'm going to visit relatives." After thinking about it, he said, "Little brother, dare to ask if you have heard of Liu Yuniang?" ”

"I still know a little about this Jade Dragon Mansion. Liu Yuniang...... There are also many people in this Jade Dragon Mansion who call it this name, but I don't know it, you go to the Jade Dragon Mansion, so you will inquire yourself. The Jade Dragon Mansion is not small, but it is not big, but it is still easy to find someone. The vendor replied with a smile.

She nodded and said, "Thank you." ”

Because of the conversation, the vendor's words also increased, "After lunch, it is estimated that it is time to enter the city, the scenery of Yulong Mansion is good, but it is a veritable feng shui treasure." It's just that the girl is born like a flower, so don't walk around when you enter the city, in case it is not good for people to see it. ”

Shangguan Jingyu frowned, "Why?" ”

The vendor chuckled awkwardly, "The girl just listens to me." ”

Only then did she remember the purpose of this trip, that little overlord, He Shucheng, the son of the Shangshu family. Bullying men and women, it must be a no-brainer, how did she forget He Shucheng!

The wind swept through the sideburns.

Because she followed Li Yi, her bun was messed up a long time ago, and now she doesn't tie her hair, but just wears her long hair and ties it a little at the back of her head. Ink hair is like satin, green silk and waist, and fragrant, just the age of being born like a summer flower.

Young, high-spirited, and born at the right time, Bo has an incomparably noble identity.

It's a pity that after all, I can't do it for a lifetime, I can only steal half a day of leisure!

Sure enough, in the early afternoon, I saw the boundary marker of the Jade Dragon Mansion. After walking a little further, it was Jade Dragon City, and after entering the city gate, Shangguan Jingyu said goodbye to the vendors and walked alone.

I heard from the mouth of the trader about the location of the government of the Jade Dragon Mansion, and now I don't care about the identity or not, so I will return to the team first. When you're alone, something may happen.

However, she found the government after several rounds, but was shocked to find that there were some eccentric people outside the government who had been sneaking outside.

Standing behind the tree opposite the mansion, Shangguan Jingyu began to hesitate.

These people ......

She looked up at the sky, and then at the vendors in front of the yamen. Who put a stall in front of the government office? It's not ...... Want to cover it up? There are people at the front door, and there must be a lot of people around!

I don't know who these people are? Or the group of people who hunted after themselves?

If it was He Shucheng's people, it would be fine, if it was those who chased and killed her, I was afraid that she would not be able to enter the gate of the mansion. Xindao, it would be good if she was without makeup, you can take her to climb the wall.

But now, there is nothing she can do.

Turning around and disappearing into the market, Shangguan Jingyu was stunned and asked an old man at the corner of the street, "Dare to ask the old man, have you heard of Lord Langhai, the servant of the Ministry of Works, who was just sent by the imperial court?" ”

Older people probably know more, after all, they see and hear more.

The old man nodded, "I've heard a little, but the girl is looking for someone?" ”

"I am close to Lord Hai, and I heard that he came to the Jade Dragon Mansion, so I went to meet at the order of my father, but I don't know if it......'s a coincidence," Shangguan Jingyu looked embarrassed and did not continue.

Hearing that it was the relatives of the new Ministry of Works, the old man's eyes instantly showed some awe, "It's unfortunate, the carriage in the palace took people to the imperial tomb early in the morning, and I don't know when I will come back." ”

"Thank you!" Shangguan Jingyu's face tightened, and he went to the imperial tomb?

Then she will wait at the city gate, and stop the car when the time comes!

After waiting until sunset, there was still no movement outside the city, and Shangguan Jingyu was a little uneasy, after all, her current situation could not allow too much time to be wasted.

The nurse was not found, and naturally there was nowhere to live without silver on her body, and the killers behind her would appear at any time.

As soon as he stomped his feet, Shangguan Jingyu turned his heart sideways and was preparing to leave the city.

I didn't know a slightly tentative whisper behind him, "Miss?" ”

What a familiar sound.

Be...... Nurse?

Shangguan Jingyu turned around happily and watched a woman wearing a light gauze hat lift the light veil, revealing a familiar face. I haven't seen her for a few years, and the nurse's complexion hasn't changed, but it's just ...... It didn't seem to be quite what she remembered.

What's the difference?

There are more ugly scars on the face, like burns!

"Nurse!" She was overjoyed, rushed straight up, and grabbed the nurse's hand, "I found you." ”

The nurse's original life is Liu Yuniang, originally from Yulong Mansion.

"Why did Miss get here?" Liu Yuniang thought about it, put down the light veil, and covered her face.

Shangguan Jingyu frowned, "Nurse, what's wrong with your face?" ”

Liu Yuniang said, "A fire, it's a blessing not to die." ”

Heart, slightly sick.

"Follow me." Liu Yuniang turned around and left, "It's inconvenient to talk here." ”

Shangguan Jingyu glanced outside the city gate, but there was no movement, so he could only follow Liu Yuniang and leave. Not far away, Su Yan rode a fast horse and galloped back to Egret Island. Shangguan Jingyu didn't come to the Jade Dragon Mansion at all, so the only possibility was that he was designed to be left alone and stayed in Bailuzhou.

Su Yan was so anxious, where could he hear Hairun's words to let her stay in Yulong Mansion, and while Hairun had not come back, he rode back directly.

But I didn't know that this was the case, and I missed it with Shangguan Jingyu.

Liu Yuniang led Shangguan Jingyu to the mountain, and the lush forest path made her feel faintly cold in her heart. So many accidents have occurred in similar mountain and forest areas, Shangguan Jingyu has to say that he is extremely resistant to places like mountains and forests.

Not far away, there are several thatched huts and a small fenced courtyard.

"Nurse, why do you live here? Didn't Dad say that he gave you a lot of silver, enough for you to have food and clothing for the rest of your life? Shangguan Jingyu frowned.

Liu Yuniang pushed open the door, and then took off the light gauze hat on her head.

Shangguan Jingyu was stunned, and he couldn't come back to his senses for a long time.
