Chapter 139, Peach Blossom Dense Danhe Pavilion
After saying a few words, she left with the person beside her.
Xu Shen looked at the background of her departure and was silent for a long time.
"Father, are you alright?" Seeing that everyone was gone, Xu Le ran out from behind the rockery and asked cautiously. Z.br>
"It's alright, kid." Xu Shen swallowed, but before he could recover his strength, he said, "Fang Cai, you are hiding there, you heard it, right?"
「…… I heard it, Qi Niang is Gou Chenzi, it's unbelievable......
"Remember, you must forget those words, if you step into the court in the future, you can save your life, do you hear?"
Xu Shen warned sharply, and then, ignoring his son who was stunned on the spot, he walked back.
When he went back, Lu Zhaoyi was walking on the road alone, and the black armor guard didn't know when and where he was hiding.
On the way, it was not far to return to the mansion where she lived, and after going down the mountain, it was the county seat. And at the bottom of the mountain, there is still shadow snow waiting.
Inadvertently, Xu Shen's sad and resolute expression appeared in her mind.
Those eyes, deep and indifferent, seemed to be able to see everything.
He said, "I won't let you know the truth!"
Why wouldn't he tell himself the truth? What will make him jealous then?
Or, the person behind the scenes, the background is too complicated, and even a tiger general like him, who was once a member of the team, is afraid?
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but sigh, and she couldn't help but feel a little anxious in her heart.
The next day, Lu Zhaoyi got up early, and after dressing up, he took Ying Xue and Zhang Youzhi out with two hundred Yongzhou, and met with Han He and set off for Danhe Pavilion.
As for the others, she stayed in Shangluo and assumed her position as the county lieutenant, maintaining law and order in the county, and leaving Wei Meng fully responsible.
Because Xia Yuanlong's identity is really special, he is also disguised, and few people know him, so he goes with him.
Along the way, while riding a horse, she was thinking, and from time to time she looked behind her, but she still couldn't see the figure of a familiar person.
"Seven Niangzi, it seems that the person you are waiting for still hasn't followed?"
Han He's ridicule reached Lu Zhaoyi's ears, and it was white eyes that responded back.
Instead, she pulled the reins back, reduced her speed, and finally got not far from Xia Yuanlong, who was at the back of the formation.
"Yuan Long, Your Majesty, is there any news?"
She asked, staring at each other without blinking.
When Xia Yuanlong heard this, his face condensed slightly, "Qi Niang Fangxin, before Brother Pei became the emperor, he has always been very clever, and after he ascended the throne, he has a deep mind and rarely approaches the clan, but his ability is not inferior to the previous king. If this little thing can't be solved, how will he govern the country in the future?"
She was slightly stunned, the world has only been peaceful for a year, and she has forgotten that Xia Pei went from a Zhonglang general, to the prince of Yuan, the prince, and then the king of Yuan, and then to the emperor.
Along the way, it was his courage, strategy, martial arts and military exploits, as well as a little scheming and the city government that he achieved all this.
From this point of view, Xia Pei is indeed not like the children of ordinary families, but relying on blood and sweat, he has forged him, an indomitable and determined monarch.
Thinking about it like this, Lu Zhaoyi didn't feel a trace of emotion in his heart, Xia Pei is still very charming.
Thinking about it, she bowed her head slightly, and then, she stopped talking.
There was no word all the way until we arrived at the Danhe Pavilion.
It is not far from Wuguan, but because the city wall is tall and majestic, ordinary people can't get close at all, and even if they have the courage to enter the city, they are just small fish and shrimp.
Danhe Pavilion, in the suburbs of the entire Shang County, is located in the 12 miles of Wuguan, the gateway of Jingzhou, between the high mountains, and the bottom is the Danjiang River that flows eastward from the Qinling Mountains.
Therefore, the name of Danhe Pavilion comes from this.
After several days of traveling, and more often than not, they were already exhausted from the journey.
Knowing that he was so tired all the way, Lu Zhaoyi just glanced at the towering city wall in the distance, and when he saw the Danhe Pavilion, he immediately shouted to everyone.
"Stop!"
As soon as she gave the order, everyone immediately stopped.
"Is there a post house here?"
A soldier from the Yongzhou guard came over to report, "I know, two miles southeast of Danhe Pavilion, there is a post house, but it belongs to the Wuguan Commander, and I don't know if I can rest?"
As soon as he heard him, Lu Zhaoyi immediately understood, that post house, which was only ten miles away from Wuguan, must be a post house under the rule of Wuguan.
"Then let's drive these two miles again." Lu Zhaoyi wanted to wave the horsewhip and turned his head to look at Han He.
"General Han, you go to the fifth, and make an appointment to send someone to tell me."
Han He arched his hand, watched this group of people, and continued to urge the horse forward and continue to hurry.
Soon, among the group, only Ying Xue turned the horse's head and returned to Han He.
She smiled, "General Han, don't get me wrong! Qi Niang asked to stay and wait for others."
"That's it......" Han He hesitated, "What the Seventh Lady said...... The deceased?"
Shadow Snow didn't reply, but instead, grabbed the reins, and rode to the city gate.
In the Wuguan Post House, Zhang Youzhi waited impatiently outside a courtyard door, and just as he was about to continue knocking on the door, the courtyard door slowly opened from the inside, and a stunning beauty appeared in front of him.
She wears a long skirt in green clothes, covered with tulle, a black silk hair pulled into a bun, and a hosta is inserted on it, which looks dignified and does not lose everyone's beautiful demeanor.
Zhang Youzhi admitted that he was a little stunned.
But now, Lu Zhaoyi, who had just washed and changed his clothes, looked displeased, as if he wanted to ask the teacher for guilt.
"Seventh lady, there is a letter from Danhe Pavilion, saying that the location arranged by the fifth captain is not far from the post house, and there is a peach orchard to the north."
"Oh?"
She raised an eyebrow, "And what are you still standing out there for?" I don't know how to go in and wait?"
Zhang Youzhi was speechless when he was reprimanded.
"What are you doing?"
In a hurry, he stammered and couldn't say a complete sentence, and finally simply closed his eyes, took a long breath, and then raised his head and shouted.
"It was General Han who said that after separating from Qi Niang, about an hour, someone named Xu Shen arrived at Danhe Pavilion. General Han took matters into his own hands and recommended the person to the Fifth Lieutenant."
"Oh. I see." Lu Zhaoyi nodded lightly, and as he spoke, he walked straight out, while ordering, "Go and rest." Tomorrow afternoon, come with me to Taoyuan."
Zhang Youzhi looked at her back as she walked away, and couldn't help touching his nose to relieve the embarrassment just now.
For those who have been in the army for a long time, the officials they have always faced are men, and when it comes to female officials, no one has any experience.
Looking at her departing back, Zhang Youzhi couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief, this woman is still so fierce.
On the other side, after Lu Zhaoyi returned to the post house, he ordered someone to pack his luggage and prepare to leave tomorrow.
The next day, at noon.
The sun is shining.
To the northeast of the Danhe Pavilion, bypassing two mountain peaks, there is a paradise at the confluence of two rivers.
Here, the locals are known as Taoyuan, and as the name suggests, this place is quite elegant and quiet, with a beautiful surrounding environment and pleasant scenery.
Similarly, there are various peach blossoms growing, which are quite pleasing to the eye.
In the center of the peach orchard, there is a single courtyard, at this time it is spring, the branches and leaves of the peach trees are luxuriant, and the flowers are blooming one after another, all kinds of colors are staggered, and it is very beautiful.
In the peach forest, there is a small stream that crosses it, the water is turbulent, a piece of emerald green, occasionally a carp swims by, the water ripples, flashing and flashing, as if jumping out of joy, provoke people can't help laughing.
A thin old farmer was chasing him by the river with a bamboo basket.
Behind him were two children, both thirteen or fourteen years old, dressed in coarse linen clothes and holding sticks, collecting firewood on the ground.
Suddenly, the old farmer paused in his footsteps and looked up at the middle of the peach grove, where there was a boulder, towering into the sky, hidden behind the dense peach trees.
At this moment, they were standing under a big tree, and the shadow of the boulder blocked them.
"Huh? What's going on?" The old farmer frowned suspiciously.
At that moment, suddenly, he felt a wind blowing beside him.
When he turned his head, he saw a slender and tall man coming from the peach forest.
It was a very handsome man, with a handsome face and dark eyes, as if he could attract people's attention.
But seeing him smiling, he clenched his fist towards the old farmer, "There are nobles in Taolin today, please leave with those two children quickly!"
"Childe is polite!"
The old farmer bowed again and again, "After picking up the last firewood today, the old man will leave immediately, and he will not be in the way."
"It's okay, you can go, hurry up." He smiled slightly, waved his hand, and signaled that the old farmer could leave.
Seeing this, the old farmer had no choice but to turn around and leave with the two children.
When the two children disappeared from sight and headed in the direction of the village, the old farmer turned slowly, walked back to the original place, put down the bamboo basket, and continued to be busy.
His movements are very skillful, and it can be seen that he has been running in the peach forest all year round, and his legs and feet are already very flexible.
When he finished collecting firewood, he was returning to the village, but he saw a beautiful figure, which he had never seen in decades, just like a fairy.
I don't think that the old farmer is already stunned.
Just when he thought that he was going to pass by the fairy-like woman, he listened to the woman talking to him softly.
Most of the things that can be said are whether there is enough food? How's life going? Have you ever encountered bandits? And how did the magistrate deal with it?
Listening to this tone, the old farmer felt like an official and condolence.
After a while, a figure came out from behind the peach tree, and the polite handsome man that the old farmer met here was this person.
"Yo, sir, the old man knows that he is in the way, so he will leave immediately."
After speaking, he found that this handsome man did not look at him, but the beautiful woman in front of him, and his eyes were a little excited, looking at the white figure.
The next moment, something strange happened to the old farmer.
The man stepped forward and bowed to the woman, as if to show the nobility of the woman's status.
"The tutor has been waiting for a long time, please come with me."
The beautiful woman in the white dress showed her bright teeth and smiled, "I should have thought that you would be with the fifth. However, Your Majesty is not in Luojing at the moment, and neither are you, Henan Yin, don't you worry about changes in Luojing?"
Listening to the meaning of these two people, no matter how confused the old farmer is, he will not know that at this moment, he actually touched the big event in the world, so frightened that the old farmer immediately knelt down and kowtowed to the two.
That handsome man is none other than Henan Yin, and he is also one of the apprentices of the fifth Langya, Li Qian.
As for the beauty in a white dress, it is Lu Zhaoyi.
The eyes of the two of them looked at the kneeling old farmer at the same time, and they both looked surprised.
"Hurry up, old man!"
Lu Zhaoyi bent down and stretched out his hand to help him up.
And Li Qian looked at the bamboo basket beside the old farmer, and his eyes seemed to be thoughtful.
"Coincidentally, at today's luncheon, there is a lack of a man who cooks on the fire, uncle, you can come with us in a while!"
"Huh?"
The old farmer was shocked and frightened, at this time, no one thought that this small act of kindness by Li Qian and Lu Zhaoyi would change this old man who was half a piece of loess, and the original life trajectory would also completely change the faction pattern in the Dayuan court.
