Considering the bodies of King An and Hua Rong, the speed along the way was not very fast.

It took a month to arrive in Chuzhou, and it was still two or three hundred miles away from Chenzhou.

In the intertwined season of spring and summer, there is a lot of rain, and as soon as you enter Chuzhou City, the rumbling thunder comes from afar.

Seeing that it was going to rain heavily, Jiang Yunhua ordered people to speed up.

However, it had not gone far before the carriage was stopped, and the men's angry scolding and the woman's cries came.

"Lao Tzu is your blessing to see you, don't be ignorant!"

"I have made a marriage contract, I will never commit to others, if you don't let go, I will die here!"

Hua Rong lifted the curtain and saw a gentleman leading people to drag two women on the street.

King An was also attracted by this movement, gave Jiang Yunhua a look, and motioned for him to send someone to save the two women.

The people led by Jiang Yunhua were very strong, and those people were frightened, so they let go of the cruel words and fled.

The two women hurriedly went to the carriage and thanked King An.

"Thank you Childe for coming to the rescue!"

The woman at the head was wearing an indigo dress, she was born beautiful, but she was seventeen or eighteen, and it was difficult to hide her appearance without powder, so she was frightened, and the tears on the woman's face were not dry, and her eyes were still wet, like a lotus flower that had just been destroyed by the rainstorm, which was lovely.

"Who is it that is embarrassing you? What are your entanglements? ”

An Wang asked softly, and the woman couldn't help but cry again.

The woman's name is Ye Tang, the daughter of a cloth merchant in the city of Chuzhou, after her mother died early, her father married her stepfamily, and the steproom gave birth to a daughter.

Ye Tang has suffered a lot of grievances over the years, tears fell into tears, crying silently, and the maid behind her said a lot of things about Ye Tang's stepmother treating and scolding Ye Tang.

King An is in the royal family, he has never seen such human suffering, and his sympathy for Ye Tang is two points more, he looked at Jiang Yunhua and said: "Miss Ye is a poor person, it is going to rain heavily for a while, and she can't hurry, so let's escort her home first." ”

Ye Tang was flattered, and then shook his head and said: "The son can come to the rescue, the little woman is already grateful, and she doesn't dare to delay the son anymore, and the man and woman don't kiss, the son escorting the little woman home will cause criticism." ”

Ye Tang was very disciplined, even if he came to thank him, he kept his head down, not daring to look at King An's face.

Wang An heard her concerns, and said softly: "Miss Ye, don't worry, my sister is also traveling with me, and you master and servant can take my sister's carriage." ”

This trip is to bring back King Qi's ashes, it is not appropriate to make a noise, King An and Hua Rong are both commensurate with brother and sister, and they will not reveal their identities easily.

Ye Tang's master and servant looked at the weakness, but after all, it was a stranger who suddenly appeared, Jiang Yunhua remained vigilant, and said to King An: "Young master, young lady is timid and afraid of people, it is better to let young lady and young master sit in a carriage and give them the carriage behind." ”

This proposal is not bad, King An agreed, and when Hua Rong finished changing the carriage, the group rushed towards the Ye family.

As soon as the carriage stopped outside Ye's house, heavy rain whistled.

Although the Ye family is in the cloth merchant business, there are few people, and when the group enters the house, they are inevitably drenched in the rain.

Ye Tang was very apologetic, and was busy asking people to boil ginger soup, while he personally led people to the front hall.

The Ye family's house is not big, just a small courtyard with two entrances.

When he was about to arrive in the front hall, a sharp voice sounded: "Yo, isn't this the eldest lady of our family, you don't have to hook up with people outside, why do you still hook up with people at home?" ”

The one who spoke was a woman in her early thirties, and the woman was well maintained, but her eyebrows and eyes were sharp, and she didn't look like a good person.

This is the step-family Sun who has been making things difficult for Ye Tang.

Hua Rong stepped forward and said softly: "Madame misunderstood, my brother and I first arrived in Chuzhou, we are not familiar with the place, Miss Ye helped us show the way, we saw that she didn't bring an umbrella, so we sent her back, not what Madame thought, and asked Madame to be cautious." ”

Hua Rong didn't say that Ye Tang was entangled by the gentlemen, and Ye Tang cast a grateful look at Hua Rong.

Although they were in a hurry, Hua Rong and King An were dressed luxuriously, and they were accompanied by Jiang Yunqi and several guards, and Sun quickly realized that they were not bad.

She was annoyed that Ye Tang was lucky and could always meet some nobles, but she quickly reacted and felt that this was an opportunity to disrupt Huang Yetang's marriage, so she shouted loudly, saying that Ye Tang was inappropriate and had a skin-to-skin relationship with King An.

Ye Tang tried to explain, but she was not as loud as Sun's, nor was Sun's shamelessness, so she had nothing to do with Sun's at all.

It was the first time that King An saw what the shrews in the market looked like, and he was a little stunned for a while.

Jiang Yunhua was impatient with Sun's quarrel, drew his sword and pointed it at Sun, and ordered in a cold voice: "Shut up!" ”

Just as a bolt of lightning flashed, the blade of the sword refracted a shocking cold light, and Sun shivered, and finally shut up.

Jiang Yunhua stared at her coldly, and said Hua Rong's previous words again, saying word by word: "She is innocent, she has no skin-to-skin relationship with anyone, if you talk nonsense, I will cut out your tongue, understand?" ”

Jiang Yunqiu's aura was cold and coercive, how dare the Sun family say no, and nodded again and again.

Ye Tang breathed a sigh of relief, wiped away his tears and thanked him, trying to persuade them to stay overnight, Sun muttered in a low voice: "They are the sons and daughters of rich and noble families at first glance, how can a small temple like ours afford such a big Buddha, besides, there is no rice at home, what do so many people eat?" ”

The Sun family was obviously driving people away, Hua Rong glanced at King An and said to Ye Tang: "Thank you Miss Ye for your kindness, but we have a place to stay, so we won't bother here." ”

I didn't even drink the ginger soup, so the group went to the post station in the rain.

took a bath and changed into clean clothes, but Ye Tang's face always lingered in King An's mind.

During the meal, King An couldn't help but ask Hua Rong: "After we leave, will that Sun family continue to make things difficult for her?" ”

Absolutely.

The Sun family saw that Ye Tang was not pleasing to the eye, and wanted to interfere with her marriage, so he naturally spared no effort to deduct basins on her head.

Hua Rong didn't say it directly, but asked King An: "The third brother can't rest assured that Miss Ye?" ”

King An paused for a moment, but did not hide it, and said truthfully: "I just think she is a little pitiful, and she has not done anything wrong, so she should not be treated like this." ”

It is difficult for Qing officials to cut off family affairs, and no matter how much King An feels unfair for Ye Tang, he can't do anything with the Sun family.

Before Hua Rong could figure out how to persuade King An not to meddle in his affairs, Jiang Yunhua poured cold water mercilessly: "She already has a fiancé, is it possible for the young master to learn from the eldest young master?" ”
