Xiao Er brought water, and the two quickly washed off the oil paint on their faces.

Zhao Qin put down the towel in her hand and breathed a long sigh of relief, "My skin can finally breathe again"

"Sister, where are we going next?" Xia He asked.

"Let me think about it" Zhao Qin thought for a while and said, "The closest city to Jinling City is Luzhou City, which is hidden in the city, let's go there!"

Early the next morning, Zhao Qin inquired with the innkeeper about renting a carriage, and after a while, he negotiated the price, found a suitable carriage and an honest coachman, and sent them to Luzhou City.

The carriage was walking on the mountain road, and Zhao Qin was choked enough, this ancient means of transportation was enough to choke, and there was no shock absorption at all. In this way, the stomach can be turned upside down.

Zhao Qin opened the curtain and asked the coachman, "Uncle Li, how long will we have to walk to Luzhou City?"

Lao Li, the coachman, said: "Miss, according to our speed, it will take three days to get to Luzhou City." ”

"Three, three days?" Zhao Qin asked, "What are we going to do that night?"

Lao Li said: "You don't have to worry about this, Miss, we can rush to the town in front of us after dark today." ”

Oh! Zhao Qin thought to herself, this means sitting in the carriage for a day!

Zhao Qin leaned against the wall of the carriage awkwardly, unable to sleep, unable to lie down, so he could only endure it stubbornly.

Xia He excitedly kept looking at the scenery outside the window. It may be the first time to go out of the door so far away, and everything is new.

As soon as it was dark, the three of them entered Xianghe Town in one car. It's a small town, and there are not even inns, only a humble inn.

Lao Li familiarly drove the carriage into the post station.

After a day's journey, Zhao Qin and Xia He were hungry and tired, so they ordered a few dishes and went back to their rooms to rest in a hurry.

During the meal, a few more merchants came in the post station, and they also ordered food to eat in the hall. While eating, they chatted about gossip.

"There was a big incident in Jinling City recently, do you know?" said a merchant with pockmarked faces.

"Isn't it just that the eldest lady of the Nangong family has lost it!" said another man with a long face.

"Yo, what's going on?" the rest of the merchants urged the long-faced man, "Tell me quickly." ”

The long-faced man said proudly: "My wife's cousin and niece work as a maid in the Nangong family, and I heard her say that Miss Nangong seems to have been found on the second day of Mrs. Nangong's birthday banquet, and she didn't find it in and out of the house." Mrs. Nangong fainted several times in a hurry......"

Hearing that Mrs. Nangong fainted because of herself, Zhao Qin's heart tightened, and Xia He looked at her with a worried face.

Nangong Ling and Xia He were only discovered the next day after they left on the night of Nangong Lady's birthday banquet. Nangong Yu was furious and ordered the whole house to search closely, and finally found the letter left by Nangong Ling.

When Master Nangong found out about the letter, he was so angry that he almost fainted. The long-faced man said, "Withdraw all the people who went out to look for it, saying that they will not look for this daughter again, as if they have never given birth to ......."

"It seems that Master Nangong is really angry this time!" said the merchant at the same table, "I didn't expect such a disobedient daughter." ”

"Yes!" the rest of the people echoed, "The old man wants to save face, isn't this a slap in the face?"

"How did you know about such a private thing? You couldn't have made it up?" someone questioned the long-faced man's words.

"Am I going to die when arranging the Nangong family?" said the long-faced man, "My distant cousin is helping in their house, and I have seen and heard it with my own eyes. ”

"Oh!" everyone believed him.

"Doesn't the Nangong family still have a marriage contract with the Dongfang family, this Nangong lady is gone, how can she explain to the Dongfang family?"

"Explain, where do you still need to explain? Dongfang Yu had already dissolved the marriage contract before Miss Nangong left. ”

"What? Are you accurate?"

"Believe it or not!" said the long-faced man, pouting.

"Believe, believe, why?"

"I don't know about that. The long-faced man shook his head and said, "I can't inquire." ”

"What's so hard to guess about this, the Nangong family is so big, Dongfang Yu actually dares to withdraw from the marriage, it must be that the Nangong family has done something sorry for others, so he can only let others withdraw from the marriage, and he doesn't even dare to let a fart go. You say don't you?"

"That's right, but the Nangong family is a decent family, what can they do to lack virtue?"

"Hmph! Are there still few things that these famous and decent people do to lack morality? Do you know? Miss Nangong has a maid named Chunxiang, who has been sold to Xishan. This is an old man who has been with her for many years, and if she sells it at this juncture, doesn't it mean ......"

"There must be a problem, there must be a problem......" the rest chimed in.
