Sun Qiao, who went out to inquire with Song Yan, was a little puzzled, frowning his pair of thick short eyebrows and whispering: "Grandpa Song, isn't he just a thief who steals the mausoleum, just send Brother Li or whoever comes over." Why does the prince attach so much importance to it, and he has to come over to check in person on a cold day? ”

Song Yan glanced at him and said slowly: "Little Sun, since you call me grandpa, grandpa will teach you a word." It's something you shouldn't know, don't ask, you know? ”

Sun Qiao choked and was about to say something, but was instructed by Song Yan to go separately.

This Baishui town is very small, the whole town is just one main street, and it is pitifully short, there are only seven or eight decent shops in total, and most of the goods sold are shoddy and indiscriminate, which is unsightly. The guys in the shop also didn't know anything, and they were all stunned, which made Song Yan, who was used to dealing with smart people, very unaccustomed.

Although he didn't figure out the relationship between this woman with a mark on her face and the person he thought in his heart, he also knew that this kind of person with a flawed face was the least likely to hide her whereabouts. As long as she has been in this town for a while, she is bound to leave a slight impression on the people around her, how can she not ask?

In the end, he still found a clue for Sun Qiao.

He learned from the proprietress of the pastry shop that about a year or two ago, there was indeed such a woman in the town, and she also brought a little doll who was drinking milk.

The proprietress with long hands and feet said while talking to each other: "At that time, there was not a rice seller next door, but a cloth shop. The little lady from the countryside didn't know what luck she had, but she climbed to the Wang's house, a wealthy family in the county, and helped sell cloth in the shop for two or three months. Later, the Wang family closed the shop, and the woman left. Where did it go? I don't know! I'm busy with the work at hand every day, where do I get the spare time to take care of others~ Oh yes, I remembered, that little lady seems to be a dead husband, and later married a little white face who sells calligraphy and paintings in the town, and she is also a foreigner. Let me tell you, in the past two years of fighting in the north, we have a lot of chaos here than in previous years......"

Sun Qiao's brain is not flexible enough, and his memory is not bad, so he learned it to Song Yan in 1510. The latter frowned when he heard this, and then ran back and asked the proprietress a few questions, such as what the little lady looked like, how old the little doll was, and the specific origin of the Wang family, and finally went back to tell Qi Heng with a heavy heart.

In the pawnshop, the boss's leg was already paralyzed. He finally found that the big Buddha, which automatically emitted cold air, although it was terrifying, did not seem to show signs of being rough so far. Therefore, even if the other party sat directly in his store and didn't leave, he didn't say a word, he didn't dare to let go of a fart, and let the young man go to the best fragrant tea in the store, and used his most precious blue and white lotus eight-treasure pattern official kiln teacup, and hung a notice at the door of the store to close down, just hoping to serve this uncle more comfortably, these people can quickly find that little lady, and then hurry up.

It's just that after the white-faced middle-aged man came back and whispered something to the young man, his precious teacup was directly crushed into several pieces by the man.

Before they had time to feel sorry for their treasures, the gang followed the trend and rolled out with a bang. Except for the puddle of water on the table, the blue and white porcelain tiles, and the ingot of official silver thrown on the table showing the traces of their existence, the store was quiet, as if no one had ever entered.

"Master, your hand ......"

Qi Heng took the handkerchief handed over by Song Yan a little rudely, wiped the wound casually, threw it back to Song Yan, and said condensedly, "Go to Taixing County!" The latter, who was taking the gold sore medicine from his bosom, took a stool and put it back again.

Along the way, he sat straight, almost stiff, and he didn't know where to swing his hands and feet.

At first, there seemed to be a fire of hope burning in my heart. But after learning the news of her remarriage, it was like a sudden splash of ice water, which refrozen it into a thousand-year-old ice. After such repeated torture, he finally couldn't help but let out a painful cry and hit the wall of the car with a punch.

No, it's definitely not her!

Returning to Taixing County again, from Wang Ji Silk Shop's residence to inquire about Pei Baoer's residence, the group came to Osmanthus Lane.

Qi Heng asked them not to follow, not even Song Yan, who had watched him grow up, and walked slowly to the small wooden door. muttering the three words of Osmanthus Lane in my heart, I always feel a little familiar. Yes, when he stayed here before, Lao Hei didn't send an abducted child home, it seems to be here. And the woman with the red mark on her face, is it the same person?

He suddenly had a sense of absurdity, if it was really her, what were these missed three times?

Knock Knock –

The man's pale hand knocked on the door twice stiffly, and then he heard a woman in the courtyard say, "Dani go and open the door, and by the way, take Yan'er down, and don't let him step on the stool and climb any tree." The voice was different from what I remembered, crisp, not as soft and sweet as before, but the crisp and neat energy of the past was a little familiar.

He shrank his hand, and it was rare to have some sorrow in his heart.

There was the sound of children's laughter in the courtyard, as if they were dodging someone, shouting "come and catch me", and the sound of running and running, and the sound of ping-pong with something falling to the ground......

The woman said helplessly: "I'm really afraid of you, I'll do it myself." Who's this? ”

A small face the size of a slap was revealed, first on the right side, then on the whole face. The eyebrows that are as light as a distant mountain, the small and straight nose, and the slightly upturned corners of the lips are all so familiar, except for those eyes, and the red mark the size of a fingernail.

Qi Heng's breath stagnated, and then his heartbeat missed another half a beat.

The woman's soft apricot eyes restrained her smile, and she looked at the man at the gate of the courtyard with some suspicion.

Pei Bao'er hesitated and asked, "This Langjun, may I ask, who are you looking for?" ”

The man in front of him was dressed in a moon-white robe, and he was also wearing a cloak of the same color, and there was nothing else on his body except for the white jade on his waist, revealing a dusty extravagance. Not to mention his knife-like tough silhouette, handsome but pale face, he looks like a big man at first glance.

Such a fairy-like man fell from the sky at her doorstep, it can't be lost, right?

Qi Heng opened his mouth, looking at the two children who had stopped playing in the courtyard, and the young man who came out of the house, and suddenly didn't know what to say. He stared at Pei Bao'er's slightly apprehensive little face, carefully studying any slight changes in the expression on it, but in the end he found nothing.

A thousand words, in the end, only one sentence: "This lady is thirsty on the road, can you borrow a bowl of water?" ”

Pei Bao'er looked at him with a strange look, and saw that he didn't move, there was no embarrassment, and his lips were indeed a little dry, so he reluctantly believed it.

"Yes, you can wait."

She turned her head to the kitchen to pour water, and lingered with a sense of disobedience, and when she went out with the water, she even wondered if the man had gone quietly.

As a result, the man was still standing there quietly, his eyes slightly lowered, as if he was in a daze.

"Well, the water is coming. It's still lukewarm, be careful. ”

She passed the water, and the man raised his eyes as if he had just woken up from a dream, as if he was looking at her, and as if he was looking at someone else through her.

He reached out and took the small bowl, and their hands quickly touched, and then quickly separated. The brief skin-to-skin touch seemed to ignite a flame on the back of his hand.

Pei Bao'er also hurriedly retracted her hand, she felt strange in her heart, and couldn't help but think, this man's hand is really cold, as cold as ice, but it is very consistent with his own temperament.

Qi Heng thanked her in a low voice, but only took a small sip, then returned the bowl to her, closed his eyes, and strode away directly. He walked very fast, as if he was afraid that something behind him would catch up.

Pei Baoer inexplicably took the remaining half bowl of water back and splashed it under the wall. Xiao Yan'er was tired of playing hide and seek with Dani, so she ran over to see the movement on her side, and her eyes lit up when she looked at the man's distant figure, and two words popped out of her mouth-

"Beauty!"

Pei Baoer felt even more inexplicable, and stroked the cheap son's big head and coaxed him inside. Save him from running out to play, and meet a crutch who kills a thousand knives.

That night, she had another strange dream.

When she woke up the next day, Pei Baoer sat on the kang and was stunned for a long time. This dream is a little different from the usual, most of the previous dreams were from a first-person perspective, but this time it is from the perspective of God, like watching a movie.

She saw a mountain, and there was a Taoist temple or temple building in the mountain, which looked quaint and quiet. Someone came up and knocked on the door, but it was a man, and he couldn't see his face clearly because he was carrying her. Then a woman answered the door, she was dressed in a Taoist robe, with an old-fashioned Taoist bun on her head, and her eyes were smart, like a cunning little fox.

"Childe is lost? There are all female Taoists in this female temple, but I'm afraid it's not convenient for you to come in. ”

She didn't hear what the man said, she just watched the wooden door close again, and the whole dream was slowly shrouded in the white mist of the mountains.

Pei Bao'er was a little frightened, the woman in the dream was a little like herself, but not exactly her.

It's not like she touched the scene, and today she was asked for a bowl of water by such a handsome guy standing at the door, so she automatically made up for such a drama of a domineering son falling in love with a pretty aunt, right?

When Pei Baoer was doubting life, the He family, which was harmonious and peaceful in the past, was messed up.

Mrs. He held her heart and shook in disbelief: "Master, this is not true, tell me quickly, this is definitely not true!" ”

He County Commander sat aside like a mourner, oh no, now it can't be called He County Order.

The day before yesterday, Xie Yushi came, and as soon as he entered the door, he was about to read the file, and he had a bad heart, and sure enough, the case of Lin Si and the Liu family, who had just been sentenced, was "spot-checked", and he was asked in a cold sweat, just hoping to be able to fool the past. As a result, Xie Yushi came back from "hanging out" yesterday, and told himself with a smile that he met a woman at the city gate who beat her husband to a wow, and he wanted to educate the woman in line with the idea of a husband as a wife, but he didn't expect a strange thing to be tried in the first instance, the man with legs and feet comparable to a rabbit was actually Lin Si himself, and it was said that he should be the "bitter master" who had broken his leg and couldn't move for several months.

He County Ling knew that this Xie Yushi was prepared, otherwise how could there be such a coincidence, so he had to admit it, and prepared to re-judge the case with bitterness, and then send Xie Yushi away, and be prepared for the evaluation at the end of this year. As a result, what is even more unexpected is that a bigger guest came to the yamen early this morning.

This distinguished guest first asked the lady of the Liu family involved in the case, and he was afraid of Xie Yushikeng, so he knelt directly on the ground and honestly explained the whole case at 1510, and tactfully shouted for himself.

"Xiaguan really can't help it, then the Lin family is ...... after all" He paused and changed to another explanation, "After all, he is the old servant of the Marquis of Zhongwu, and he lives in peace on weekdays, and there is nothing to bully men and women." The lower officials didn't know that Lin Si was so bold that he did such a deceptive thing, intending to harm the Liu family. That's when the case was wrongly decided......"

He Xianling knelt on the ground to plead his case, but he didn't notice that when he began to explain the case and pointed out the relationship between Liu Yun and the little lady, the expression of the person sitting on the top became more and more cold, and the gaze that looked at him was even more disgusted.

In the end, I still listened patiently to him and finished some of the things that Pei Niangzi had to do with the Wang family, for example, Mrs. Wang had saved Pei Niangzi, who had given birth alone, and had taken in Pei Niangzi as a female worker, and so on. It was precisely when he heard these words that the man's eyes were not as cold as before.

He Xianling was dismissed from his post on the same day, and he got the status of "staying for inspection".

However, Song Yan knows very well that an official like this who has been listed in front of his own prince and is still on the blacklist, even if he has the support of several adults in Sanyang, he is afraid that the officials will not dare to use it again. He glanced at He County, who was as tearful as an old dog, and sneered. What's more, this person is already old, but he is still serving as the commander of Qipin County, except for flattering him on both sides, he is probably also a talentless, and it is not a loss to deal with it like this.
