Compared with the official road taken when the fate line came, the waterway is much faster. The warship followed the river all the way to the south, and finally entered the Yellow River, during which the passenger boat had been following behind, Yang Le'an's attitude was quite interesting, seeing that Hong Qingyao insisted on staying by Yuanxing's side, he sent a servant woman on the warship to take care of her daily life, and then ignored it, as if she did not exist.

It's been a day on the ship, in addition to arranging some work, Ning Muduo is with Yuanxing, chatting about each other's experiences that can be spoken to people.

The rain had stopped, the sky was just right, and several people were drinking tea on the deck, Ning Mu listened to his junior brother's curiosity about Yang Le'an's actions, and then explained slowly: "Grandfather doesn't care about this little girl, why should he pay attention to an outsider who is not related?" ”

"Don't care?" Yuan Xing frowned slightly, if he didn't pay attention to it, how could Yang Le'an personally come to Liangzhou to deal with the aftermath? "Isn't she the last bloodline of Jin Yuanzheng's daughter?"

"That's exactly what Jin Yuan told you?" Ning Mu's eyes widened, and he turned to a sneer: "How did I hear that he is old and strong, and several concubines are about to give birth?" He glanced at Hong Qingyao, who was sitting next to her in a daze, and said, "She has a daughter, but she is not a concubine, how can she attach importance to this granddaughter?" ”

Yuan Xing recalled the scene of that day and couldn't help gritting his teeth. Jin Yuanzheng only said that his sons died and his daughter's family died, so that he sympathized and resolutely agreed to escort the little girl to Liangzhou. Well, people really didn't tell a lie, they just concealed it a little. Is......

It's so angry! He silently recited the Buddha's name several times, but he could not calm the turbulent mind.

Ning Mu saw that his face became flushed, and he knew that this junior brother was very angry, and after a few words, he thought about it and retracted what he wanted to say, and then teased Hong Qingyao on the side, this expressionless and old-fashioned expression appeared on a child's face, and it looked particularly cute.

After a long time, Yuan Xing's complexion returned to normal, picked up the teacup and poured a sip of tea, did not continue on this topic, but told Ning Mu about the palace warehouse that had a good relationship with him in Kaifeng City.

Ning Mu raised his eyebrows, pondered for a moment before nodding and said: "Okay, I'll write a letter to Kaifeng to check the whereabouts of this person, if he didn't die in the expedition, how much care he took care of, it was nothing." ”

Seeing that he agreed, Yuan Xing relieved his heart a little. After coping with a few more words, he was really in no mood to talk any longer, so he took Hong Qingyao back to his room to teach martial arts.

Ning Mu watched the backs of one big and one small disappear on the deck, the look in his eyes was obscure and complicated, and after a long time, he suddenly laughed comfortably......

The boat traveled very fast, and it took less than two days to arrive at the Lanzhou wharf.

Don't look at the attitude between Yang Le'an and Ning Mu, the attitude between each other is intriguing, when they get together, both sides are cynical and unpleasant. But the warship docked at the pier here, and the passenger ship on the other side also stopped at the same time, and both sides seemed to have a tacit agreement to enter Beijing together.

Yuan Xing was actually quite distressed, seeing that the March period was approaching, he didn't know how to arrange Hong Qingyao. It is said that it is most appropriate to hand over Yang Le'an to take care of at this time, but this girl is quite stubborn, she doesn't listen to anyone, as if she knows that he is leaving, she doesn't want to leave his side for a moment, except for taking a bath and other time, and even sleeping has to pull the corner of his clothes to close her eyes.

It seems that I can only leave quietly then. Yuan Xing was also a little reluctant in his heart, so he could only comfort himself like this. It's a pity that his girlfriend hasn't talked about it, but now he still has some sense of experience as a father.

just got off the boat, and Yuan Xing saw a thin figure standing on the shore at a glance.

"Big brother." He shouted, and without hesitation of the world, he dodged in front of the man. The man's robe was draped obliquely, unmoving as a pine, and he was the elder brother who had not been seen for many years.

"Hmm." Yuanfa glanced at him with slanted eyes, and then turned his gaze behind him with a look of ignorance.

"Big brother." Ning Mu also came to the front with the little girl in his arms at this time, and greeted him with a smile.

Unexpectedly, Yang Le'an, who has always been unruly in the impression of Yuanxing, took the initiative to salute Yuanfa at this time: "Yang Mou visited Master Yuanfa." ”

"Amitabha." Yuanfa smiled and saluted back: "I've seen Lord Yang, I haven't seen him for many years, I heard that Lord Jin came back from the dead, it's really gratifying, how is his health?" Not sick, right? ”

Yang Le'an's expression froze, and he replied with a forced smile: "Senior brother, everything is fine, Master Lao is concerned." ”

Yuanfa's smile became even brighter when he heard this: "It's a blessing that my old friend is safe." As he spoke, he swept his eyes again, and said: "My little junior brother is a young monk, and he doesn't do much trouble, so he wants to cause trouble to Lord Jin, and the poor monk will come to apologize in person another day." ”

Yang Le'an squeezed out a smile on his face, and opened his mouth dryly to say something. On the other side, Yuanfa's eyelids drooped, and he kicked the thigh of Yuanxing, who was watching the excitement on the side: "What are you doing with a stunned clubbing, don't you come with me?" Leaving this sentence, he turned around and left, ignoring Yang Le'an and his party.

Yuan Xing and Ning Mu glanced at each other, but they didn't care much, and quickly followed Yuan Fa to leave.

The senior brother was angry, Yuan Xing cautiously looked at the back in front of him, don't look at the Yuan Fa Fang with a smile on his face, but the senior brother has been together for a long time, and he can clearly understand the anger of the senior brother.

Yuanfa took a few steps in front, suddenly stopped, swept to the side with horizontal eyes, and couldn't help frowning when he saw Yuanxing with a worried face, and reprimanded: "What kind of body is it to bend over and collapse your back?" What about prestige? ”

"Yes." Yuan Xing was suddenly startled when he heard this, and he was busy straightening up, not squinting.

With a light snort, Yuanfa continued to walk in front of him without hurrying, and Yuanxing was also solemn and safe, following closely.

Only Ning Mu, who was not a monk for a long time, hugged Hong Qingyao in the back and unhurriedly decorated it far away, gloating with a face of schadenfreude.

Not long after the journey, a few people arrived at the inn, and it was the same room where Yuan Xing had stayed for one night.

This time, he didn't go up to the second floor, but was taken to an independent and clean courtyard at the back by Yuanfa.

Xu was because of the foot on the dock, as soon as she entered the yard, Hong Qingyao, who was put on the ground by Ning Mu, walked quickly to Yuanxing's side with her little short legs, hugged his thighs, and then pouted, trying to stare at Yuanfa with her eyes wide open, but her attitude of thinking that she was vicious was really intimidating, but it looked even more stupid and cute.

"This is the girl?" Yuanfa frowned and looked at the girl dressed as a little novice, and squinted at Yuanxing: "These ghost ideas are in the works all day long, a good girl, and I actually let you look like this." After that, he lowered his body and smiled at the little girl, and he looked very fond of it.
