Qingrong was stunned when she heard this, and she didn't know what kind of medicine she was selling in this gourd, so she politely refused: "Thank you Madame for your kindness, but I just arrived not long ago, and I didn't get used to it for a while, so I didn't go to disturb Ju Dudu and Madame." ”

Zhang said again: "Anyway, Madame is idle and has nothing to do, why don't you go with me, doesn't Madame still refuse to give me this face?" ”

Qingrong was a little helpless, she smiled, "Madame, where did I start with this, I first came to Xizhou, and I didn't know much about the affairs of the Western Regions, let alone accompany Madame to relieve boredom, I was afraid that I would lose Madame's interest, so wouldn't I be too guilty?" ”

After hearing this, the Zhang family felt that there was some truth, but if Lu Qingrong was unwilling to go to Qiuzi, then how could she do what the prince explained? It was a bit of a struggle for her. "Then Sanniang doesn't want to go, so I'll stay here, it's rare to come back, Madame shouldn't think I'm troublesome, right?"

Qingrong is very well cultivated, and he was stunned to put on a decent smile, shook his head and said, "How come?" Madame willing, I can't ask for it. ”

Zhang smiled with satisfaction, "That's fine." ”

Seeing that it was time to eat, Cui Liniang and several other ladies came to the courtyard banquet, and as Qingrong had just come the day before, they walked around the scene, although Qingrong was not strange, but he felt a little numb and bored.

During the banquet, Qingrong asked people to present all the generous gifts to all of you, all of which were gold and jade jewelry with good textures and materials, and that's it, even those gadgets were also rare to see. There is a sachet made of gold, which is small and delicate, and no matter how you turn it, the spices in it will not spill. When everyone saw Qingrong's generous move, they couldn't help but start thinking about her goodness, seeing that she was kind, and they were no longer so like a great enemy to her.

After the banquet was dismissed, everyone said goodbye and left, and Zhang stayed in the guest room of the official annex.

Xu was tired because of the menstrual period, and after returning home, he went back to his room and fell asleep, and it was dusk when he woke up.

Qingrong faintly heard the sound of someone walking in the outhouse, closed his eyes and got off the bed, sure enough, it was Xue Shao who came back from outside.

When Xue Shao saw her come out, he couldn't help frowning and said, "Why did you stay in a single dress?" It's cold tonight, so don't be afraid of catching a cold! With that, he went to the back room to find a cloak and put it on Qingrong.

Qingrong was still a little sleepy when she woke up, she eased her nerves, and took the initiative to throw herself into Xue Shao's arms, and said in her heart, wouldn't this be warmer?

Seeing that she didn't speak and relied on herself like this, Xue Shao was a little dazed for a while, and his voice tightened, "What's wrong?" Tired? Wronged today? Who upset you? ”

Qingrong shook his head, closed his eyes, and said in a muffled voice: "No, I just miss you." ”

Xue Shao was stunned when he heard this, and a stream of heat suddenly poured into his heart, full of warmth, and he couldn't help but hug Qingrong tighter, he lowered his eyes to look at Qingrong, and asked in a low voice, "Hungry?" ”

"Well, I haven't had much appetite lately."

She really didn't have much appetite for eating recently, and it was the same when she was on the road, at that time Xue Shao thought that the food on the road was shabby, and she didn't want to eat it, but in the past two days, it seemed that she had a poor appetite. Xu is not accustomed to the water and soil, and Qingrong has a menstrual affair again, and his complexion is very bad.

Xue Shao worried: "After that, you will rest at home, and you don't have to go out if you don't have anything important." I see you're tired, and you have to rest for a few days, and there's nothing important about you right now. ”

After speaking, he remembered what Qingrong mentioned yesterday, and said, "I have already instructed the guards to look for it secretly according to the characteristics you described, but it will take some time, so be relieved." ”

Qingrong opened his eyes and sighed lightly, "Now it's the only way to do it." ”

For the next few days, Qingrong closed the door, saying that he was sick and recuperating at home. Although this is the case, it will inevitably make others doubt the truth or falsehood. Otherwise, how to recuperate at home, and some merchants deliberately carried several large boxes of goods to Qingrong's house, how many people are sick, and they will still think about these? Everyone doesn't know how such a woman who only knows pleasure and squandering and doesn't know how can she get into the eyes of saints and queens?

And now the owner who has been rumored to be looking at the two large boxes of things in the yard, she smiled and said: "An Langjun has a heart, just arrived in Xizhou, and bothered you to run this trip in person." ”

An Qilang, who was standing on the side, waved his hand and said with a smile: "Yes, I originally agreed with my wife, I was going to take my wife to the shop at home, but I heard that my wife was cultivating at home, so I asked someone to pick it out and send it to my wife to choose." Mrs. can pick slowly, if you like everything, then you can take it all, and you don't take a penny. ”

Qingrong shook his head and smiled: "How does this make An Langjun a businessman, just according to the rules of doing business, there is no need to spend so much, if this is the case, I will be shameless in the future." ”

An Qilang said: "What is this, I have already told the lady, this is the first time that I have led the team back to Xizhou, and I have been with the lady on the road, which is a lot more convenient, and this time I should thank the lady." "Before, An Qilang only knew that she was an official dependent, but after inquiring in Xizhou, he learned that Qingrong was actually General Xue's wife, so he was more attentive and a little more restrained than before.

Qingrong understood in his heart, but he still refused politely: "I understand An Langjun's kindness, but how to do it." However, I do have something that I need An Langjun's help with... I don't know if you remember..."

An Qilang patted his chest and said continuously: "I remember! Please also ask Madame to take a step to speak. ”

Qingrong nodded, and the two walked to the side of the courtyard, and An Qilang lowered his voice and said, "When I came back, I had already told my brother about it, and asked him to inquire about several large caravans in Xizhou... However, I still can't help but remind Madame that Madame should not expect too much from this kind of thing, there are many men and women who have come with the caravan from the capital, and it has been more than a year, and it is difficult to say whether anyone remembers it. Besides, if... If that lady is sold as a slave girl by mistake and is sold, it will be difficult to find..."

Qingrong sighed lightly, how could she not know? She said: "Thank you An Langjun for your kindness, but even so, you can't help but look for it, if you have half a point of whereabouts, please trouble An Langjun to inform me in time, I thank An Langjun here." ”

Seeing that Qingrong's attitude was so modest, An Qilang also sympathized with her worries, and hurriedly waved his hand and sighed: "I can't help it! Madame is serious, since Madame has said so, I will definitely be concerned! ”

Qingrong nodded and smiled, "Thank you." ”

After a while, Qingrong also quickly picked out the things he chose for Siniang, and instructed Yun Niang to take the money and let An Qilang accept it. Although An Qilang was prepared to take nothing when he came, when he saw Qingrong like this, he naturally accepted it with a smile.

Speaking of money, An Qilang remembered the things that had been in a uproar in the past few days. Qingrong hadn't been out for a few days, and he hadn't heard of it, and he heard that it was related to the temple, so he was a little curious for a while.

An Qilang said: "Actually, I only heard it this morning, saying that there was a monk in the Thousand Buddha Temple who went to the government to report the case this morning, saying that the monk from Huailuo stole the property in the temple, and the monk refused to admit it, and threatened that he was slandered, and the senior brother who came from Huailuo with him also gave him a guarantee, saying that there must be a misunderstanding in this matter, and the monk of the Thousand Buddha Temple took people to search the house that stole the monk. As a result, madam, guess what? ”

Why are you still selling it? Ah Zhen, who was on the side, was fascinated by what she heard, Qingrong was a little helpless, she smiled and asked, "What is the result?" ”

An Qilang spoke energetically, "As a result, people really found a bag of money, this time the human and material evidence are there, even if they can't rely on it, but the thief and his senior brother are bluntly wronged, and the senior brother is willing to pay back the money to the temple in person, just saying that he wants to settle this matter and don't make a public announcement." ”

This is true, even if the monks of the Thousand Buddha Temple are xenophobic, they will not ignore the reputation of Buddhism, and make such a big fuss that they even have to go to court. "And after that? Does the presiding officer of the Thousand Buddha Temple refuse to stop? ”

An Qilang shook his head, "It's not that the host refuses to stop the matter, but that senior brother!" He said that there was another person who really stole the money, but he must insist on reporting it to the official, find out the matter, not only to clear his name, but also to find out who framed him. ”

Qingrong nodded and said, "This is understandable. ”

At this time, An Qilang changed his words and raised his voice: "But the key is that the monk who stole refused to do so!" He said that since the money has been repaid, there is no need to pursue it anymore! Madame, you say, isn't this a thief? Afraid that people will not be able to see through it? Seeing that these two brothers have their own words, they are arguing about this, and there are monks in the Thousand Buddha Temple who say that they want to report to the official, which will not be in the court! But in my opinion, there is no need to judge this matter at all, it must be the person who stole it, otherwise why wouldn't he dare to stand up and want to settle the matter? It's a pity that such an upright senior brother has such a junior brother who corrupts the rules of Buddhism, and asks him to contribute money and effort in vain, but he can't support Adou. I heard that the thief is still a disciple of a high monk, a mage, what is it called... Empty? ”

Qingrong paused when she heard this, she could hardly believe her ears! Silence, theft of temple property?

Ah Zhen and Song Yue were also surprised, was Master Empty Silence also in Xizhou? Qingrong didn't dare to be convinced, and asked, "Who are you talking about?" ”

"Master Empty Silence..."Seeing that Qingrong's expression was a little wrong, An Qilang said tentatively: "What's the matter, madam?" Have you ever heard of this mage? ”

Not only have I heard of it, but there have been a few intersections. Just, how could it be? Qingrong didn't believe that Sora would do such a thing. "Heard, do you know how Lu Changshi judged this matter?"

Anqiro scratched his head, "Also... I don't know, the court just got into trouble this morning, if Mrs. wants to know, she can ask someone to go out to inquire now, this Xizhou is not a big place, and the news is also well-informed. ”

Qingrong hurriedly asked Yun Niang to go out to inquire, and she said to An Qilang: "An Langjun doesn't know, I have also met with Master Kongshan a few times, and my father is a good friend of Master Kongshan's master, I don't know that he also came to Xizhou, and this kind of thing happened, which is really disturbing." ”

An Qilang's eyes widened in surprise for a moment, "Madam... Do you know him? ”

Qingrong nodded, "In the past, he was generous, so he shouldn't have done such a thing, maybe there was a misunderstanding here?" ”

An Qilang didn't know what to say for a while, "Madam is kind-hearted, this person knows the face but doesn't know the heart, and it's hard to say." ”

Qingrong smiled and said, "Yes, thank you An Langjun for reminding me." ”

Qingrong didn't want to listen to him, so he diverted from the conversation and chatted casually. Seeing that Qingrong was a little excited, An Qilang also took the initiative to leave, and when he was about to leave, An Qilang didn't forget to say to Qingrong: "Oh... By the way, it is rare to fall in love with Mrs., and I said to Mrs. before, at that time, I hope that the lady can come. ”

Qingrong thought of what An Qilang said before, smiled even deeper, nodded and said, "Don't worry, I will definitely attend." ”

It just so happened that Xue Shao also came back from outside today, and he heard these two words from the two.

An Qilang was going out, and he saw a tall man standing there, his face was solemn, and his expression was so cold that people couldn't help but tremble. Song Yue, who came to see off the guests, saluted beside her and called, "Ah Lang." ”

It turned out that this was General Xue, but I didn't expect him to see it today. After An Qilang reacted, he smiled fully, "General Xue." ”

Song Yue explained: "This person is Hu Shang, who called An Qilang to deliver something to the lady. ”

Anshiro? He'd heard the name.

Xue Shao nodded, and said simply: "There is labor." ”

An Qilang was about to talk a few words, but he saw that he didn't mean to talk, so he had to smile, "The general is polite, since that's the case, I won't disturb the general and his wife, so I will leave." ”

"Song Yue, send off."

After speaking, Xue Shao strode inside without looking back. An Qilang has seen a lot of commanding officials, and he doesn't care much about Xue Shao's cold but polite attitude, he turned his head and inquired with Song Yue: "This general looks tall and handsome, but he also looks weird and bluffing, isn't Madam afraid?" ”

Song Yue pursed her lips and smiled, "Our general is not like this in front of Madame. ”

……

As soon as Xue Shao entered the house, Qingrong greeted him and asked, "You're back, I just have something to ask you." ”

"You've heard about the Void Mage, too?" Xue Shao glanced at Qingrong, the news was fast enough.

Qingrong nodded and asked, "Then how did Lu Kaiyan interrogate?" ”

Xue Shao said: "I heard about one or two, and said that he detained the mage, but he hasn't said how to deal with it." What, you want to take care of this? ”

"What if it was wronged?"

"Or possibly." Xue Shao glanced at her, understood what Qingrong meant, and said in a deep voice: "Then you can do it." ”

Qingrong nodded and smiled, "With the general's words, how can I not listen?" ”

Xue Shao stretched out his hand and flicked her forehead, looking a little helpless, "I don't dare to say this." ”

Qingrong smiled, and Xue Shao asked again, "What did that Hu Shang send to you just now, and what did you do to him again?" "But we have only been walking together for a while, and we are so eager to come and go?

"It's just some jewelry and spices, and he specially brought someone to send them."

Xue Shao took Qingrong's hand, looked serious, and said in a deep voice: "What do you want to buy, let Yun Niang and them accompany you, don't get someone else's for nothing." ”

Qingrong smiled helplessly, "I naturally paid for it, how can I take it for nothing." ”

Xue Shao nodded matter-of-fact and said with a smile: "I knew you knew what you wanted." ”

Ah Zhen on the side didn't speak, and she didn't laugh out loud until she endured it, Ah Lang is not jealous, right?
