Wei Mian saw his mother asking about the black-clothed young man, frowned and thought for a while: "This son doesn't know, he didn't bother to say a few words after he met him, and he was busy running for his life." Could it be that the prince sent to follow his cousin's entourage? ”

Zheng shook his head: "It doesn't look like an entourage." "Zheng is not a person who likes to get to the bottom of the details, and when he saw that he couldn't determine the identity of the young man in black, he put it down, and Hengzhi was not an enemy.

Then he thought of the reason for Xuanyun's injury this time, his face was a little unsightly, and he glared at his son and said, "Stay in the car!" Your cousin needs to take care of his injuries, don't bother! Thinking of the ordinary actions of the Prince of Li, and the endless sad grievances of my cousin every time I saw her, I couldn't help but think that I don't know which unlucky girl will become Xuanyun's princess in the future.

Zheng was about to open his mouth and issue another ban on his son to stay away from Xuanyun, when Gao Yuan, the leader of the guards over there, walked over here.

Wei Mian took the opportunity to say: "My mother must have something to arrange, and my son retreated first." With that, he quickly bowed to Zheng and walked away.

As Wei Mian walked, he secretly said in his heart: This time, because of his cousin, he suffered from the pond fish.

Since he went to visit his cousin when he was five years old, he mistook Xuanyun for a female doll, and gave him a jade pendant that his mother stole from his mother's dowry with a red face, saying that he would marry him in the future. Every time he sees Xuanyun, he always has to be unlucky!

Gao Yuan came over and thought about Zheng's salute and said, "Madam, but you still want to enter Puji Town?" The subordinates had already chartered the Fuyun Restaurant in the town. ”

Zheng thought about it, although Xuanyun's injury had already been seen by the young man named Junyi, but after all, he was a little uneasy, after all, he was the only son of his cousin, the only seedling of Prince Li's mansion, and he couldn't get out of the pool, so it was better to go to the town's hospital to find a doctor to diagnose it.

So Zheng said: "Since you have booked a restaurant, let's go, you go and ask where there is a doctor in the town who treats external injuries, and bring it to help Shizi take a look at the injury." ”

Gao Yuan responded, Zheng saw that everything had been arranged, so he went back to the carriage, and soon heard the sound of the carriage and horses driving outside, and the carriage that Sanniang and Zheng were riding also moved.

Xuan Yun was enjoying the little girl sent by the Zheng family to serve him in the carriage, and at the same time looked at the little girl whose face was already red: The Wei family is really a beauty from cousin to girl, look at the big mole on the face of this little girl, it is like a green-headed fly on her face.

I was thinking about whether to find my cousin to change the maid over, and found that the carriage was moving, and looked out through the windblown curtain, but found that the carriage was heading towards Puji Town, which he had just escaped, and couldn't help but straighten up and shout out: "Stop, stop, don't go to the town in this world!" ”

But after shouting for a long time, the carriage didn't stop, but the curtain of the carriage moved, and Junyi jumped up.

"After passing the town, we will go west, and we will arrive at Licheng in the evening. As long as you stay in the car and don't show up, you'll be able to get out of town safely. ”

Junyi glanced at the maid beside Xuanyun who was shyly bowing her head and fanning, her face did not move, and she leaned against the wall of the car with her arms around her arms and closed her eyes to recuperate.

Xuan Yun saw that he had been shouting for a long time and no one paid attention to it, and remembered his cousin's stubborn temper that did not recognize people, so he stopped in frustration.

The horse-drawn carriage slowly drove into Puji Town, which is just a small town under the Taishan Mountains, and the whole town has only one east-west street, but it has become a prosperous place with a relatively concentrated population because it is located on a traffic artery.

As soon as the carriage entered the town from the official road, Sanniang heard the noise of bustling and noisy. Because there are not a few cars and horses passing by every day, so the arrival of Sanniang and his party did not make the people in the town have too much surprise, the small vendors who were originally placed in the middle of the road saw the convoy from afar, so they neatly and skillfully picked up the goods on the ground, quickly retreated to the side of the road, and when the convoy passed, they poured out one after another to continue to shout business.

Due to the flow of too many people, the carriage moved slowly, and the sound of the horses' hooves could even be counted on the car, and it was already past the time of a stick of incense when the carriage stopped at the back door of the restaurant.

The guy who had been waiting at the back door for a long time skillfully removed the door panel and let the carriage into the backyard, but after three cars were in, the guy stopped the rest of the cars with a smile, saying that the backyard was too small to accommodate anymore, and the carriage behind needed to be parked in the back alley. Gao Yuan arranged for a few coachmen to park the car with the job, and went to the front yard to find the shopkeeper to make detailed arrangements, and then inquired if there were any famous doctors nearby, and then went out.

Sanniang, Zheng and Yun Ying got out of the car first, and as soon as they got out of the car, they were led by a woman who looked like the daughter-in-law of the shopkeeper to the guest room on the second floor, where hot water and tea were already prepared.

Sanniang recruited Bai Zhi and Bai Ying into the house to help wash her face and hands, change clothes and makeup.

"Where is the young master?" Sanniang asked the maid behind her.

"Young Master and Wei Gongzi are in the opposite room." Bai Zhi pointed to the window.

There is a patio from the opposite room.

As soon as the tidying was finished, there was a knock on the door.

Bai Ying hurriedly ran to open the door, and there were two people standing outside the door, Mama Zhang and Mama Tang.

Bai Ying hurriedly let in.

Mama Tang smiled: "Miss, can you clean up?" Madame asked the slave maid to ask the third lady if she wanted to go over and have dinner with her, if she didn't want to move around, she would set up a table in this room, and the fifth young master also had their own meals, and the third young lady didn't have to remember it. ”

Sanniang thanked with a smile, thought about it, and said, "I'll go over and use it with my wife, it's not interesting to eat alone." "Zheng's room is next door.

Mama Tang was very happy when she heard this: "Eh, then I'll go back to Mrs., Mrs. said that if the third lady goes over to eat, let the kitchen add a few more dishes you like, the slave has just inquired with Mama Zhang, and when Mrs. returns to the kitchen, she will go to the kitchen to order." Without waiting for Sanniang to say anything, she bowed and withdrew.

Sanniang looked at Mama Zhang with some surprise when she heard this.

Mama Zhang said with a smile: "The slave maid was ordered by the old lady to serve the third lady's diet and daily life, and the third lady's preferences naturally have to be investigated in advance, so I have already asked the maid in your yard in advance." ”

Sanniang nodded and smiled: "Mama has a heart." If you're tired along the way, go take a break. Then he turned his head and instructed Bai Ying and Bai Zhi: "I'll go to Mrs. Wei's room to eat, I don't need you to serve, you can also go down with Mama Zhang to rest." ”

Sanniang went to Zheng's room and saw that in addition to Zheng's mother and daughter, there was also the woman who took them upstairs.

When the lady saw Sanniang come in, she bowed generously and continued: "The Pure Land Temple in our town can be effective, and you can get money and get rich." He glanced at Sanniang and Wei Yunying, and said with a smile: "Ask for marriage and get married." Every year, the pilgrims who come here do not know how many, and the bluestone steps in the temple are lowered by a few inches every year. ”

Seeing that Zheng just listened and did not answer, the woman smiled and said: "Our town is backed by this mountain called Changbai Mountain, there are waterfalls and springs on the mountain, strange flowers and plants, deep caves and stone monsters, and mountain treasures are all over. Six or seven miles from the town to the northeast is the famous Dongling Mountain, if you come to our Puji Town, you don't see Dongling Mountain, it can be regarded as nothing. ”

Zheng waved his hand and said with a smile: "Just casually ask you about the situation in this town, you have pulled out so much." We won't be here for long, we will leave after dinner, and we will rush to Licheng today. ”

The woman was a little disappointed when she heard this, but the disappointment disappeared in the blink of an eye, and she immediately said kindly, "The little one will tell the kitchen to serve the food quickly." so as not to delay the lady's trip. If you go late, it will be dark when you get to Licheng. The road at the foot of this mountain cannot be walked at night. The mountains behind us are prosperous and peaceful. Further east to the Mingshui that section of the mountain road is different, listen to the guests from the city said, some people heard the wolf howl at night, and some to the eastern foot of Changbai Mountain to Zhouzhuang to buy silk merchants lost, and finally only found a few pieces of bloody clothes on the mountain, strange and infiltrating, scared that the villagers there are now afraid to go up the mountain. ”

Hearing this, Yun Ying pulled Zheng's sleeve with some fear and said, "Mother, there are wolves on the road?" ”

Zheng said: "It's just hearsay, besides, so many of us are not afraid even if there are wolves." ”

Zheng turned his head and instructed the woman, "You go to the kitchen and urge." And he asked the girl who was waiting beside her to reward the woman with a few pieces of silver.

The woman hurriedly said "eh" and went away rejoicingly.

After eating, the maids and daughters-in-law were busy preparing for the journey, and Sanniang and Yunying stayed in Zheng's room to chat and drink tea. As he was talking happily, he heard a noise outside the window, and it was getting louder and louder.

Zheng frowned and sent the maid around him out to take a look.

Sanniang faintly heard some crying noises, which came from the patio, but she couldn't really hear them because the doors and windows were closed.

Zheng was about to ask someone to open the door and window, but Mama Tang pushed the door and came in.

"Ma'am." Mama Tang's face was a little ugly, she glanced at Sanniang and Wei Yunying, leaned into Zheng's ear and whispered a few words.

Sanniang only heard: "Shizi...... Girl...... Crying ......" words.

Wei Yunying bit her lip and asked, "But what happened to my cousin?" ”

Zheng glanced at Wei Yunying, and said a little sternly for the first time: "It's not up to you." Then he got up and said to Sanniang and Wei Yunying: "I'll go out for a while, you guys stay in the house well, don't go anywhere." ”

Wei Yunying pursed her mouth a little aggrievedly, but after all, she didn't dare to disobey, so she just stood in place and watched Zheng quickly walk out of the house with Mama Tang.

Sanniang heard Zheng instructing the two mothers-in-law outside to let them watch the door and not let the idlers disturb the young lady.

The crying outside was getting louder and louder, Sanniang glanced at the window, and then looked at the two maids who Sun had left in the room to serve, and then sat down and drank tea.

Wei Yunying wandered in his seat for a while, but suddenly stood up and walked towards the window.

The two maids glanced at each other, but after all, they didn't say anything, and lowered their heads.

Sanniang thought about it, but she didn't move, Wei Yunying gently pushed the window open a crack and looked out.
