Maybe it was the smoke of firecrackers and fireworks last night, and the fog in the capital in the early morning, but this could not stop Song Nan from setting off. Before the hour arrived, Wang Yong led a hundred firearms and personal guards to wait in front of the Song Mansion.

In the backyard, Song Nan was fully armed, striding out in a scarlet cloak, Yang Ko'er was wearing a moon-white brocade robe and a pink windbreaker standing in the courtyard waiting for Song Nan.

"Let's go." Song Nan smiled.

Yang Ko'er followed behind Song Nan with a slight blessing, the little county lord Ye Fanggu Lu Qingli and others followed to see each other, Song Mu was nowhere to be seen, as before, whenever Song Nan traveled far away, she would chant Buddha all night, and she would be in the Buddha hall at this moment; Dai Suer was pregnant, and Song Nan went to her room early in the morning to say goodbye to her in person, and didn't let her get up to see her off.

The group came to the front yard, Li Daniu led two horses to wait in the yard, the luggage had all been hung on the horseback, the big black horse was restless and restless, Song Nan turned around and smiled at the wives and concubines and the crowd in the house, turned over and stepped on the horseback, Yang Ko'er also gently and skillfully turned over on the horse, and went out of the mansion in a precious goodbye sound. The team of people and horses moved, and the crisp sound of hooves shattered the dreams of the hangover people in the capital, and went all the way to the west, out of the Xizhimen Shangguan Road.

As early as yesterday afternoon, Song Nan sent the people who returned to Ulzhou Province to send them to the palace, Zhengde has been carnivaling day and night for the past two days, and he was not in the Qianqing Palace at all, and only ordered Liu Jin to deal with some trivial excerpts by himself.

However, for Liu Jin, this is a good time for him to exercise the right to approve red, although he often reviewed and folded for Zhengde before, but after wearing red, he had to read the results of his opinions to Zhengde, and if Zhengde was not satisfied, he would correct it, but during this time, he was addicted to the power to decide the affairs of the world.

Liu Jin saw Song Nan's letter after rejecting several official selections of the Sixth Ministry, as well as several excerpts on matters such as the increase in the amount of relief money and grain, Liu Jin now thinks carefully about Song Nan's words and deeds, and he will not be careless in this matter. After thinking about it for a while, I came up with a lot of questions: What did I do in Ulzhou Province for the New Year? Song Nan's foundation is clear to himself, and there is indeed a lineage of the Song family in Ulzhou, but Song Nan has already cut off contact with them, what are you going to do in the province this time?

With these questions, Liu Jin made arrangements early, and not long after Song Nan left, a team of fans also followed on the road, and an hour later, Hou Dabiao of Fusi Town, Beizhen Town, did not escape the eyes and ears of Fanzi with a hundred horses riding out of the south gate, and the other team of fans also followed Hou Dabiao's soldiers and horses.

Song Nan and the others, who had no idea about this qiē, arrived at the West Thirty Mile Pu at noon, and Song Nan ordered to stop to rest and eat and drink, and then wait for Hou Dabiao's arrival, which was the agreed meeting place.

When the flag school was resting, Song Nan came to Yang Ko'er, who was standing silently on the side of the horse's belly, slowly chewing dry food, Yang Ko'er saw Song Nan coming, and hurriedly stood up and blessed a picture, Song Nan smiled and said: "What, can you still eat?" ”

Although she is good at riding, the delicate skin on the inner thigh is a hard injury, she has not ridden a horse for a long time, and she has been grinding for a long time, but Yang Ko'er will never say it.

"It's okay, it's okay, has Childe ever seen me fall behind?"

Song Nan smiled and said: "That's not true, I didn't expect your riding skills to be really good, you must have been a wild girl when you were a child." ”

Yang Qian'er blushed and said: "People are not, when I was a child, my father took me to play on the grassland, what's the fun of not riding a horse on the grassland?" So over time, I rode it, but I rarely rode it in recent years. ”

Song Nan said in his heart: "Do you know that it will break the membrane?" Your dad is really, and he doesn't think about his daughter's future days. ”

"No, take this." Song Nan's hand behind him stretched out, and a thick cotton cushion appeared in his hand.

"Putting it in the saddle will make it less painful, and this is what your sister Su'er told me to give you." Song Nan smiled.

"No need to ......," Yang Ko'er bowed her head and said.

Song Nan turned a deaf ear, and continued to take out a small porcelain bottle from his arms and said, "You can take this too, in the tent at night, don't ...... Rub it off, huh...... It will be beneficial to the wear area. ”

Yang Ko'er's face turned red, she bowed her head and said nothing, Song Nan smiled: "Don't be embarrassed, there are at least four or five days of rapid march, you can't do it if you don't get ready, if you don't pick it up, I will let you go back to Beijing." ”

Yang Ko'er hurriedly took it, blushed and put the porcelain bottle into her arms, put the cotton pad on the saddle, Song Nan took out a piece of beef jerky and put it in her mouth, chewed it with a bulging mouth, turned around and wanted to walk away, Yang Ko'er suddenly said: "Sister Su'er also followed you to the western town of Shanxi when she rode a horse?" ”

Song Nan turned around and smiled: "Yes, she is as stubborn as you, and she can't walk for half a day, I hope you don't want to be like her." ”

Yang Ko'er tilted her head and asked softly, "How did Sister Su'er know you?" Her father seems to be an official, right? ”

Song Nan was stunned and said: "Yes, her father is a hard bone, but it's a pity that the bones are too hard to turn, and after the family was ruined, Su'er almost fell into the Jiaofang Division as a slave." ”

Yang Ko'er sighed and said: "Fortunately, the ending of the story is not a tragedy, I asked about it in the mansion, and no one was willing to sue me; Sister Su'er is so lucky, she met Childe, and you rescued her, this seems to be a script, it's really good. ”

Song Nan was amused by her cute demeanor and smiled: "Isn't it all in the script that the son was rescued by Miss Daughter?" How did it turn the other way around. ”

Yang Kouer said: "It's just as good as the other way around." ”

Song Nan smiled and shook his head, seeing the rumbling of hooves in the east, it was Hou Dabiao's people galloping from afar, and they wanted to greet each other, when they suddenly heard Yang Qian'er say behind him: "Ask Childe a question, if I fall into trouble like Sister Su'er, will Childe rescue me?" ”

Song Nan looked back in a daze, and saw Yang Qian'er looking at her with bright eyes, she panicked, and hurriedly warned herself not to do too much, she couldn't be blind anymore, this is also an official lady, and she can't be provoked casually.

"How can you compare with Su'er, your father and mother are here, and you won't experience Su'er's qiē."

"I mean, it's not true, it's like ...... It's like a script. ”

Song Nan smiled: "Then naturally you can't ignore it, Miss Yang and I are friends, if my friend is in trouble, I will rescue him." ”

Yang Kouer smiled with satisfaction: "If you are in trouble, I will too." ”

Song Nan laughed and turned around and walked away, Wang Yong and more than a dozen flag schools were already standing on the side of the road, watching Hou Dabiao's cavalry team gallop towards the front.

Ningxia Town is far away in the northwest border, the people of the time have done measurements, Ningxia Town is 3,840 miles away from Nanjing City, according to Beijing City 2,650 miles, this unattainable distance of more than 2,600 miles, if you travel in five or six days, you have to travel 400 miles every day, which shows the hardships on this road.

Fortunately, the official road leading to Ningxia and Gansu is good, and the Hongzhi period has also experienced a big rest, and the road is quite flat, but even so, this trip passes through dozens of state capitals, passes through countless mountain passes, and the more west you go, the worse the weather, the wind and snow are filled, and the sand and dust cover the sun, it is really a difficult process comparable to learning from the scriptures.

Only then did Song Nan understand the wolf bèi on the flag school article and others who saw the letter sent by Qianhu in Ningxia Town that day, and anyone who ran day and night for five days would be so wolf.

It takes five or six hours to travel every day, and almost all of them are in a hurry except for eating and sleeping, and the winter days are short, and the day is only five or six hours a day, and it can almost be said that they have to cross the horse and hurry until it is dark.

Even so, after four days of travel, I went out of Shanxi and arrived at Yansui Town, and it was still nearly half the way from Ningxia Town. Song Nan had to order the speed to slow down, and if it went on like this, people and horses couldn't hold it anymore.

From beginning to end, Song Nan didn't see Yang Ko'er say a word of complaint, and the capable Jinyi Weiqi School couldn't stand it, and this torture for Yang Ko'er can be imagined.

That night, camping in the ravine on the side of the official road, the flag school lit a bonfire in the open space, in order to keep out the cold and eliminate fatigue, Song Nan allowed them to drink a few sips of wine, and every night the camping dinner time was the happiest time for them, and at the moment they were drinking and joking by the campfire.

Song Nan didn't see Yang Qian'er's figure, so she got up and walked to her tent, her tent has always been built next to Song Nan, which is a kind of self-protection in the flag school, but Song Nan has never entered, this is the first time Song Nan has entered Yang Qian'er's tent since she went on the road.

Song Nan bent down to look into the tent, there was a black hole inside, there was a sound of snorting, it seemed that Yang Ko'er had fallen asleep early, Song Nan wanted to ask about the situation, but now it was obviously inconvenient, and he was about to turn around and leave, when he suddenly heard the sound of the wind, a cold thing flashed cold light against his chest, and Yang Ko'er's voice sounded coldly: "Who?" Dare to watch. ”

Song Nan was startled, coughed and said, "Miss Yang, it's me." ”

There was a noise inside, and after a while, a candle was lit, and Yang Ko'er half-sat in the futon with her scattered hair and said, "Song Gongzi?" Is there something wrong? ”

Song Nan said: "It's okay, I just want to come and see you, you didn't eat the dry food at night, I'm afraid you're sick." ”

Yang Ko'er sighed, and after a while, there was a sound of sobbing, and Song Nan was stunned and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Yang Ko'er didn't answer, and Song Nan said, "Can I go in?" ”

Yang Qian'er whimpered: "Childe, please come in." ”

Song Nan got into the tent, covered Yang Qian'er with her face and was crying, her hair was scattered on her head and face, looking extremely decadent.

"Can't you stand it anymore? In this way, tomorrow I will order someone to go to Yansui Town to find a carriage, and I will order a few people to protect you and follow you slowly. Song Nan said softly.

Yang Qian'er suddenly got up and threw herself into Song Nan's arms and cried, Song Nan sighed, reached out and gently patted her back and comforted, "Okay, okay." I know the hardships I have endured along the way, and the old men can't stand it, let alone you as a little girl. Don't cry, don't cry. ”

Yang Ko'er sobbed continuously, and finally vented a lot of grievances and pain in her heart, and embarrassedly pushed away Song Nan to wipe the tears on her face; Song Nan took out the hot dry food and the skin containing the wine and said, "Eat something and sleep, you can also drink a little wine, which can speed up the recovery of the body." ”

Yang Kou'er reached out and took the skin, swallowed it violently, and suddenly frowned into a pimple and coughed violently. Song Nan laughed, a red cloud rose on Yang Qian'er's face, and she stretched out her hand to beat Song Nan and said, "You tease me, you tease me." ”

Song Nan grabbed her powder fist and said: "It's just that you are too anxious, eat some dry food, drink some water and go to sleep, and also, comb your hair, you have become a female madman." ”

Yang Ko'er was startled, and hurriedly covered her head with the quilt and said, "You go out, you go out, don't let you see me like this." ”

Song Nan smiled and got out of the tent, feeling much better, since Yang Qian'er was not sick, then everything was fine, when she thought of her appearance, Song Nan's heart was hot for no reason, and she hurriedly warned herself, you can't think about it, this Miss Yang can't move, no matter how cute she is.
