Chu Zhi, who was dressed in a dark blue jacket and a cloak, sat on the horse and smiled at Li Yuejiao's gaze:

"I don't want to see Madame here, Madame is here to go out?"

Li Yuejiao smiled and shook her head: "My senior sister and brother went back to Beijing today, I came to see them off, where did Lord Shilang come back?"

"Yu County." Chu Zhi responded.

Yu County is a small county on the county boundary of Anhua County, more than 150 miles away from Anhua City, and Li Yuejiao only knew about it when the Hu family brothers and the lady Gao told her the story of Anhua County.

She suddenly said, "It's strange that Lord Dao Lang is so dusty, it's hard work. The little woman doesn't dare to delay the waiter's business, so please hurry up."

Chu Zhi turned over and dismounted, took the reins of the horse and said:

"It's okay, it's already over. Today's wind and sun are beautiful, I want to enjoy the spring scenery, and then go to the tuntian over there to see, if the lady does not dislike it, can you go along?"

Li Yuejiao listened and asked curiously:

"If the waiter wants to enjoy spring, why go to Tuntian? Anhua River and Dongfeng Mountain are all places that people in the vicinity love to go."

Chu Zhi said with a smile: "The people take food as the sky, everything in the world, where is there anything more spring than spring planting?"

Li Yuejiao didn't expect him to answer like this, and smiled: "My lord is interesting."

She pondered for a while, she really didn't have anything else to do today, and she really wanted to distract herself and resolve her sorrows.

Moreover, Xue Zhen's attitude towards Chu Zhishi showed that he should be a good official, so he nodded and said:

"Since you don't delay the adult's business, you can naturally go along."

Chu Zhi's eyes flashed with a hint of pleasure, and he motioned his subordinates to go back to the city first, while he slowly led the horse, walked on the side of the sheep cart, and talked to Li Yuejiao with or without a pair.

It's just today's weather, Anhua folk customs, etc., although Chu Zhi doesn't talk much, he has something to say, and Li Yuejiao is polite and gentle in front of outsiders, but she is also talkative, so the two chatted happily. new

When everyone could see Tuntian from a distance, Chu Zhi looked at the huge waterwheel slowly turning on the river and asked Li Yuejiao:

"I've heard people say that the water conservancy on this tuntian is now all repaired by Mrs. and Senior Sister Zun?"

Li Yuejiao pursed her lips and replied with a smile:

"I don't have the ability to do this, but I just came up with an idea, prepared the drawings, and then worked on them by the craftsmen."

When Chu Zhi heard this, he looked admiring:

"In that case, it shows that Madame is smart enough to come up with such a good idea."

Li Yuejiao shook her head humbly:

"The squire has won the award, the craftsmen together, many things are thought by the predecessors first, and then there can be the thoughts of my descendants, and it is necessary to have the wonderful hands of those craftsmen to come true, how can I be considered smart?"

Chu Zhi tasted her words in his heart, and couldn't help but sigh with emotion:

"Listen to Madame's meaning, it turns out that the craftsmen and us are the same, they are all learning for the sake of the saints."

"I don't dare to say that I am sacred," Li Yuejiao said with a smile, "but after all, it is indeed the way of inheritance."

After the two of them talked, they both felt that the other party was humble and polite, so they met and smiled.

After walking for a while, I could already see the busy people in the fields, and everyone stopped from a distance to watch in order not to disturb the spring planting.

Especially Li Yuejiao, seeing that many people are using the farm tools they designed, her mood is much smoother.

Chu Shilang has a saying that is right, where in the world is there anything more spring than spring planting?

On the side, Chu Zhi remembered something and asked again:

"By the way, madam, I heard before that Du Gongzi is looking for a book, and now he is also in Anhua County? Chu has always admired Du Gongzi's name, but he is busy with things and can't see him, so he happens to be free today, I don't know if it's convenient for Mrs.? Can I introduce you?"

Li Yuejiao's body stiffened when she heard Du Day, and when the cloud sitting in the car boiling tea heard it, she also secretly gasped, and looked at Li Yuejiao with a bewildered face.

Chu Zhi, who didn't know anything about this, only looked at it sincerely

Li Yuejiao is full of expectations.

Li Yuejiao quickly regained her composure, and asked with a smile as usual:

"If you want to know your cousin, why don't you just go and tell the prince? It's more convenient."

Chu Zhi hesitated for a moment and said with a wry smile:

"Madame doesn't know, Chu is here now under the emperor's orders, and what he does is not very good, and he has a lot of dealings with the prince, so he wants to avoid suspicion, so he wants to beg Madame."

Li Yuejiao heard what he said and Xue Zhen's words, and also heard that he really didn't know about Du Day's injury, so she calmed down and said vaguely:

"I see, it's a pity that the squire asked at the wrong time, my cousin is sick because of the book repair, and he hasn't seen people well recently, so it's better to wait until he is better, and then I'll introduce him to Lord Squire."

She didn't know how many people were assassinated by Du Day, and how Xue Zhen spread the news, but saying that people were sick was an excuse that would not go wrong after all.

"Sick?" Sure enough, Chu Zhi was stunned when he heard this, and asked with concern, "How can I get sick?"

Li Yuejiao pretended to sigh and said helplessly:

"This is the northern frontier, 360 days a year, but there are 330 days of wind, my cousin is a southerner, how can he stand it? Adults must take care of their health."

She removed the topic from Du Sun without a trace.

Although Chu Zhi knew that Li Yuejiao was just following Du Tian's affairs and politely concerned, looking at Li Yuejiao's gentle and tranquil face, he still felt warm in his heart, his expression became more gentle, and he said with a soft smile:

"Thank you, madam, don't worry, although Chu is also a southerner, he has received family training since he was a child, and he often traveled abroad before taking the fame examination, and he traveled to northern Xinjiang with his father when he was eleven years old, so he is quite adaptable."

"That's for the best." Li Yuejiao said, thought about it for a while, and asked with a smile, "But it is inconvenient for the squire to interact with the prince, how can he walk with the little woman?" Will it delay the squire's business?"

Chu Zhi felt a kind of panic that his mind was exposed, but he still smiled and said:

"Madame doesn't care about political affairs, and she doesn't live in the General's Mansion, so what we're talking about is just a matter of spring planting, so naturally it's okay."

When Li Yuejiao heard him say this, she suddenly felt strange in her heart.

How could he know that he didn't live in the General's Mansion?

But before she could ask, she suddenly saw a child running along the bridge over the river not far away, running to the side of the riverbank, and there were people chasing after him.

The child ran very fast as if there was a tiger behind him, and Li Yuejiao felt that the child was a little familiar.

And the little child also happened to see Li Yuejiao's side, stumbled under his feet, and almost fell, but immediately ignored the ground, ran in her direction from the tuntian, and shouted as he ran:

"Ma'am! Madam! Is it Madame?!"

The tunmin who were cultivating saw her stepping on the field, and they were immediately unhappy, but when they heard her shouting "madam" again, they all looked in the direction of Li Yuejiao.

In their hearts, there is only one lady in Anhua County.

Li Yuejiao heard the child's immature cry and recognized it at once, and the cloud around her had already poked its head out of the car and said:

"Ah, it's a little Lingzhi!"

Lingzhi is the nickname of Wei Hong's little female disciple.

At this time, Xiao Lingzhi had already crossed the Tuntian, threw herself in front of Li Yuejiao's car, and cried, "Madam, madam, save my master, save my master!"

Li Yuejiao's heart sank, and before she could ask, she suddenly saw a few people on the other side of the shore, looking sneakily over here.

They also recognized the sheep cart on the shore side, and immediately turned and ran.

Seeing this, Li Yuejiao immediately said to Chu Zhi, "Please ask the squire to take care of this child."

Then, he instructed Hu Rongdao:

"Brother Hu! Cross the river and go see!"

Hu Rong did not delay, and immediately drove to the other side of the river.

Chu Zhi didn't know what was going on, but he first heard a child shouting for help, and then saw Li Yuejiao in a hurry to chase someone, so he knew that something big must have happened, so he immediately bent over and hugged him, and asked:

"Little sister, are you alright?"

Little Lingzhi didn't know him, and looked at him with fear and shook his head.

Chu Zhi didn't say much, but turned over the horse with her in his arms and rode the horse to the other side of the riverbank.

*

Li Yuejiao's carriage crossed the river and chased in the direction of those sneaky people, and before she could go far, she saw a few men and women in gorgeous clothes and makeup walking from the foot of Dongfeng Mountain in the distance.

And the direction in which the sneaky men ran was different from theirs.

The men and women over there seemed to notice the strangeness of this place, so they stopped to look around, and looked very out of the way.

However, Li Yuejiao intuitively felt that Wei Hong's accident was the problem of these people, and immediately pointed to those people: "Brother Hu, go to them."

Although Hu Rong was puzzled, he immediately turned the sheep cart and went to those people.

When she got closer, Li Yuejiao immediately recognized it, and among them happened to be Young Master Tan, who she saw on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, as well as his three wives and concubines.

Young Master Tan and the others didn't think about it, Li Yuejiao came over directly, and she didn't feel gloomy, she didn't salute, and she didn't speak.

On the other hand, the other one was wearing a pink robe, although he looked good, but his demeanor was really oily and powdery, and he looked at Li Yuejiao, as if he didn't know him, and said to the young master:

"Zijue is really extraordinary, there is even a little lady with such a role, chasing you here."

This even more crooked sentence caused their group of people to burst into laughter, and even talking about the young master was as if they had picked up something, tilting their necks with a provocative smile on the corner of their mouths.

Yun Tuan and Hu Rong's faces suddenly turned angry, but Li Yuejiao didn't pay attention to them at all, but simply stood in the car and looked behind them.

Then, she pointed to a big plane tree at the foot of the mountain and said to Hu Rong:

"Brother Hu, you go behind the tree and take a look."

Hu Rong answered, jumped out of the car and went over there.

When the young master Tan saw it, his expression sank again, and that group of people wanted to block Hu Rongdao's way.

It's just that their behavior shows that Li Yuejiao doesn't see it badly, and Hu Rong doesn't bother to quarrel with them, so he simply gets up little by little, deliberately stepping on Young Master Tan's head and stepping over, striding towards that side.

Where did the young master think that Hu Rong would be like this, holding the top of his head and facing Hu Rong's back, he said angrily:

"Dog minion! You dare to step on Young Master Ben's head!"

Hu Rong didn't even hear it, the person had already walked behind the tree, only to find that there was a gagged person tied behind the tree and half buried in the soil!

Hu Rong was taken aback, and immediately said in a loud voice:

"Miss! They buried Dr. Wei alive!"

At this time, Chu Zhi rode over with Xiao Lingzhi, and when he heard this, he was shocked along with Li Yuejiao and Yun Tuan.

What does it mean to be buried alive?!
