In the middle of the night, Lin Yankong rode alone with Lin Jiaojiao out of the Jinxiang Marquis Mansion and went to Huayongguan, and the two of them only took a seventy-two.

On the bright side, Lin Yankong left a book for everyone in the Marquis Mansion of Jinxiang, saying that he was afraid that Li Cai would come to entangle, so he took Lin Jiaojiao out for a trip, but in private, he planned to take Lin Jiaojiao to Xiqin first, and then make plans to see the situation there.

Qiqi was fast, and in the early hours of the morning, the three of them left Huayong Pass and headed towards the border between Dongchen and Xiqin.

Lin Yankong originally planned to take Lin Jiaojiao to Shengping, the capital of Western Qin, to meet Li Cai again, but he didn't want to meet Li Cai who was lightly armed and only brought a guard as soon as he arrived at the border.

The border between Dachen and Western Qin was a vast grassland, separated by a desert, which was rarely blocked by buildings, and the wind and sand were even greater, and Li Cai and the guards were wrapped in thick cloaks and hoods.

Li Cai inherited the style that has always been, a deep purple mink fur inlaid with white fox fur, gorgeous and sassy.

His guards led the horses and stood in the distance, wrapped in a black coat, and he couldn't see his face clearly, but the figure looked familiar to him.

Lin Yankong's face suddenly darkened, Lin Jiaojiao restrained herself from looking at whether the guard was Huo Ningzhi's house, patted him comfortably, and said in a low voice, "Fourth brother, don't worry, Li Fuzi is very good."

Lin Yankong didn't speak with a cold face, Li Cai saw Lin Yankong's cold face, and he was happy, "Lin Xiaosi, this matter is not bad for me, do you think I am willing to take a clown girl to the shame of Xiqin?" Do you want me to show you the decree? ”

Lin Yankong stretched out his hand without smiling, Li Cai sighed, took out a crumpled yellow cloth from his sleeve, wiped his hands with it, and then threw it over.

Lin Yankong opened it and looked at it, his face became even worse.

Lin Jiaojiao soothed and held his hand, "Fourth brother, don't worry, I can take care of myself."

Lin Yankong hugged her into his arms, "I will follow you secretly, don't be afraid."

Lin Jiaojiao hummed softly, Lin Yankong tightened her tight hood, got off the horse, and waved her hand at Li Cai, "Then Jiaojiao'er will ask the master."

"Don't worry, in fact, Lin Xiaosi, if you don't have that face that is too well-known in Shengping, it's not impossible to join us, it's strange to blame you The Lin family's fortune tree is too famous."

Li Cai snorted, looking particularly insincere, turned over and got on the horse, waved his hand at Lin Yankong, and said to Lin Jiaojiao, "Let's go, time is limited, we have to rush to Shengping as quickly as possible, but we are not allowed to complain about being tired."

Lin Jiaojiao rolled her eyes, leaned over and pulled Lin Yankong's hand to her lips, kissed her through the mask, and said in a low voice, "Fourth brother, I'm leaving, you and fifth brother will take care of Sister Huo for me," said the first to beat the horse and leave, and Qier followed closely.

Li Cai snorted and followed with his guards.

……

……

When it was time to break at noon, Lin Jiaojiao couldn't help but rinse her mouth over and over again with a water bladder, the wind and sand here were too big, and the feeling of eating a mouthful of soil was really not good.

Li Cai commanded the guards and Qi'er to make a fire, while laughing at Lin Jiaojiao, "Tsk, the pampered Lin Qigirl has lived in Fengxue City for so many years, and she hasn't suffered like this, right?" ”

Lin Jiaojiao smiled but didn't smile, "It turns out that the master knows that the student follows his father and brother, and he has not suffered this kind of hardship for fifteen years, and he has only followed the master for half a day, and he has become like this.

Li Cai, "......"

Li Cai choked half to death, and shouted angrily, "Huo Xiaoer, come here, I won't take the blame for this matter alone, you also have a share!" ”

Huo Ningzhi was called by him to reveal his identity, so he ripped off the face towel under the hood and waved his hand at Lin Jiaojiao, "Seventh sister".

Lin Jiaojiao returned the salute and continued to rinse her mouth.

Huo Ningzhi somehow felt that she should be angry, and subconsciously explained, "I didn't know that the emperor had made a will, so let you come with me."

Lin Jiaojiao snorted and continued to rinse her mouth.

Huo Ningzhi's intuition should not have dissipated her anger, but he didn't know what to say more, so he frowned a little annoyedly, so he had to continue to do the work in his hand.

Li Cai glanced at him meaningfully, and greeted Lin Jiaojiao, "Xiao Qi'er, don't gargle, come over and eat something, I brought parfait from Snow City, it's so interesting, you can eat a little too."

Parfait is a special food in the Snow City, which is generally made of fermented coarse grains, dried and compressed by special means, and made into long rectangular bricks, easy to carry, not perishable, and is a must-have product for home travel.

It's just that the taste is really not flattering, dry and hard, you have to use a small hammer to knock it down little by little to chew it, Lin Jiaojiao deeply feels that the parfait in Snow City looks like a brick, not to mention, in fact, it can completely develop the function of a brick, shoot people!

For example, at this time, she saw Li Cai happily holding a brick, well, parfait waving at her, she really had the urge to grab it, and then a brick - parfait - to shoot over!

Over there, Qier set up the fire, and seeing that Huo Ningzhi didn't ask her for help, he took off the package from the horse, took a small bag of dim sum and roasted it on the fire for a while, and sent it to Lin Jiaojiao.

There is something delicious, Lin Jiaojiao naturally won't masochize herself to eat the dry and hard parfait, and gave half of it to Qi'er and ate it.

Li Cai ate the parfait with relish, while regretting that she would not appreciate the unique and beautiful taste of the parfait, and taught her earnestly, "Xiao Qi'er, all the flavors of life, you must always taste them one by one, what is the fun of you just tasting the sweetness?" If you don't endure hardship, how can you appreciate the extra sweetness? ”

"How do you know I haven't suffered?" Lin Jiaojiao said coldly, "Bitter, it's enough to eat once, if I eat it once, I can't appreciate the extra sweetness, then I can only endure hardship for most of my life."

Li Cai raised his eyebrows and hissed, "Xiao Qi'er, why do I think you always make sense when you speak?" ”

Lin Jiaojiao was unequivocal, "because what I say is always very correct."

Li Cai was stunned for a moment, and laughed, "Little Qi'er, I really like you more and more."

Lin Jiaojiao took a sip of water, "Master, what are we going to Shengping for?" In what capacity? ”

"Sheng Ping will have a grand debate in the second half of the first month of each year, not only the West Qin, the Confucianism of the East Chen, the students also have many admirers, I have been there a few times, but won some false fame, every year the West Qin has to write a letter to invite me to judge, I just go over as Li Cai, you are naturally my righteous disciple."

Li Cai said and looked Lin Jiaojiao up and down, "If you study for a few more years, you can also participate in it and give me a long face as a teacher."

Lin Jiaojiao ignored him, pointed at Huo Ningzhi and asked, "What about him?" Guards? Do you think people will believe it? ”

That little face, small body, and small temperament go to that station, saying that it is a guard, and a fool will not believe it, okay?

Li Cai raised his eyebrows, "What is not a guard?" He is a lot old, and he said that he was my disciple, do you think people will believe it? ”
