Chapter 354: Tsurumi Yanqiu
……
Time flashed, a month later.
Dahongguo, the capital of Jiangzhou.
In front of the crowded post station, the guards of the two enemy families opened the door of the carriage and said to the people in the carriage with respectful expressions: "Miss Jiang, Jiangzhou has arrived." ”
The girl nodded, rubbed her aching calves, and jumped lightly from the carriage.
"Big brothers, thank you."
"It's okay, the young master has ordered, we must send you to Jiangzhou safely, and we are doing our part."
"Miss Jiang, our people have already heard the news of the Zhu family, and someone will come to pick you up in a while."
"Mm-hmm, I see, thank you."
Thanking the enemy guards again, and watching them leave, Tsurumi Hatsuun turned around and woke up Shen Yi, who was sleeping on the other side of the carriage.
"Xuanli! Xuan Li, it's time for you to wake up, we're here! ”
"Huh? Arrived? He opened his eyes in a daze, looked at the outside world, and saw the pavilions of different heights in the city at a glance, and suddenly came to his senses.
"I'm going, it's finally here!"
Staying in the carriage for so long, he was about to get sick.
Twisting his body, Shen Yi squeezed out of the carriage in twos and threes.
The chatter on the street made him react to something at once, and he suddenly looked at Tsurumi Hatsukumo: "Huh? No one heard me, did they? ”
"Don't worry, no, they're far away, over there." She pointed in the direction in which the enemy guards had left.
Shen Yi looked down, and it was indeed far away, and he couldn't hear himself talking.
"Whew~"
Relieved, he asked, "Where are we?" ”
"This is a post station, the city I just entered, and I don't know where it is."
"Didn't you go directly to Zhu's house?"
"Jiangzhou Chen Shi is also here for the first time, I don't know where the Zhu family is."
"Okay."
Nodding, Shen Yi looked at the surrounding environment, the place where the Zhu family is located is the capital of Jiangzhou, which is one of the top cities in the Dahong Dynasty, almost the level of Jizhou City in Daliang, and also has a long history.
After looking around, sure enough, the style of the building and the clothes on the pedestrians on the road have an indescribable tone, just like the Chang'an City that I went to in my previous life, and after passing the city gate, it seems that a moment in thousands of years resonates with my current self.
"Yes...... nodded with satisfaction, Shen Yi was more happy that he didn't have to continue to ride the carriage.
The carriages and horses in this world are too slow, and it took a month to leave from the south to Gyeongju, and it is still the case that the horseman has the skill to control it, but this is already considered fast.
Originally, he was going to say something to Tsurumi Hatsuun, but before he finished speaking, he seemed to think of something particularly important, and quickly turned his head and got into the carriage, rummaging for something.
"No, what about my precious gold?"
Seeing Chu Yun, Tsuru glanced at him, took out the gold bar he had asked for from Qiu Ruixian from his arms, and said, "Here it is." ”
"What are you doing with my gold?"
"You just fell asleep and the gold fell underneath, and I picked it up for you."
"That's pretty much it."
“……”
She was speechless, during the journey from Gyeongju to Jiangzhou, she had been watching what Shen Yi was doing, in addition to eating and drinking, watching the scenery and sleeping on the road, he spent most of his time making this gold bar, and after a month, this gold bar was hard to be oily and shiny by him.
How to say it, Shen Yi's hobbies have always been a mystery in her eyes, at first he likes the neck, then he likes the legs, and finally he likes the waist, okay, now he likes gold again, the kind that he can't put down, in the few days after leaving from the Qiu Mansion, Shen Yi even had to hold this gold bar when he slept.
She just saw the gold bar fall on the carriage, she picked it up and looked at it, but she didn't find anything extraordinary about this gold bar, it was just an ordinary piece of gold, she was a little incomprehensible.
If his previous hobby is regarded as lustful, then this liking of gold is greedy for money, but the problem is that Shen Yi didn't seem to be a greedy man at the beginning. The hobby of gold seems to have appeared out of nowhere?
Watching him put the gold bars into storage, she finally asked her own question.
"Why do you like gold so much?"
"How do I know that?" Shen Yi replied like this, in fact, he had also thought about this question, and probably found some reasons.
It should be that as a Western dragon, he was born with an instinctive desire to control gold, because he remembered seeing a film and television work called "The Hobbit" in his last life
There was a dragon named Smaug who liked to soak in a pile of gold, although he didn't want to admit it, but Shen Yi was indeed a little envious, and he also wanted to soak in a pile of gold.
And the reason why this hobby suddenly appeared is probably because I have rarely come into contact with gold.
Just as people who are used to the dark don't need light.
Carefully calculated, before he got this gold bar, the amount of gold he touched was only a handful, only twice, the first time was the gold that Wu Gong took out before entering Huaiying City, and that time he didn't pay too much attention to it, so he didn't feel anything.
And the second time was in the residence of the true enemy Ruixian, which can be regarded as arousing his primitive desires.
The love for gold comes from the genetic aspect, to be honest, Shen Yi doesn't like it, rationality and follow the instinct are intertwined, which always makes him feel a little strange, not so much because he likes gold, but because he is dominated by gold.
I have to find a way to quit this "poison", and if I am too obsessed with gold, I may be used by someone with a heart, which is not a good thing.
Shaking his head, Shen Yi no longer thought about what he had or didn't have, and looked at Tsurumi Hatsuun.
"What are you going to do next? Just waiting? ”
"Yes, Master Chen has already sent someone to inquire about the news of the Zhu family, and it won't be long before he comes."
She crouched on the side of the road with her knees crossed, looking at the crowded street.
"Sell rock sugar gourds!"
At this time, an old man pushed a car full of rock sugar gourds passing by, the sugar coating on the hawthorn looked crystal clear in the sun, very attractive, the girl's eyes lit up, looked at Shen Yi and asked, "Xuan Li, do you want to eat rock sugar gourds?" ”
Shen Yi glanced at his head and said disdainfully: "If you want to eat, just say it, don't push it on me." ”
"If you don't eat it, forget it."
Shaking his head, Tsuru saw that Hatsuyun didn't bother to pay attention to him, got up and walked towards the cart selling rock sugar gourds.
"Wait, buy me two bunches too."
"You're not going to eat?"
"It's better to eat than not to eat."
“……”
Coming to the cart, Tsurumi Hatsuyun took out a few copper coins from his arms, and was about to buy a few strings of rock sugar gourds, when a carriage came from a distance, and the exquisite and gorgeous shape attracted the attention of many people around as soon as it appeared.
"Whose carriage?"
"It seems to be the Zhu family, get out of the way, or you'll be bumped!"
The people exclaimed, and the carriage was not moving fast, but it still made them hurry to dodge.
The crisp sound of horses' hooves got closer and closer, and after a while, it stopped directly on the side of the road not far from Tsurumi Hatsukumo.
She frowned, looked away from the carriage, looked at the cart selling rock sugar gourds, and finally had to give up.
There were also four guards on horseback who came with the carriage, two of them were from the enemy family, after the carriage stopped, the two came to Tsurumi Hatsuun one after another, and said respectfully: "Miss Jiang, we have found the people of the Zhu family, they are here to pick you up, now that our affairs are done, please take care of yourself later." ”
"Thank you."
"Miss Jiang is polite, farewell."
The two enemies gave up, didn't stay long, signaled to the Zhu family guard next to the carriage, and rode away.
Then the groom got out of the car, trotted to Tsurumi Hatsuun, and asked, "Is it Miss Hatsuun?" ”
"I am, and who are you?"
"The villain's name is Wei Zhong, I came to pick up the young lady at the order of Mrs. Go back, get in the car quickly, Mrs. is waiting for you."
"Oh, let's go."
Crane saw Chuyun looking at Shen Yi, the other party understood, and immediately turned into light and squeezed into the consciousness space from the center of her eyebrows, and then she didn't talk nonsense, and got into the car under the greeting of the carriage Weizhong.
The horses neighed and turned around with the two Zhu family guards, heading towards the Zhu family's location.
On the way, Crane saw that Chuyun didn't say a word, and sat upright under the soft silk seat, but her little fists were clenched, and her joints were white, and she could see that she was nervous and apprehensive.
"Xuan Li, what now?"
"What are you asking me for, it's not your business?"
"If my aunt doesn't want to see me......"
"If you don't wait to see you, you won't be seen, just leave, if you don't wait to see you, it's her loss, no, it's the loss of the entire Zhu family."
"But she's my aunt."
"Come on, if she treats you badly, what is this aunt going to do? Right? Besides, the world is so big, where can't it go? There is no place to stay here, there is a place to stay! ”
“……”
Seeing that Chuyun stopped talking, perhaps it was Shen Yi's comfort that worked, and her clenched fist gradually loosened a little, and her heart relaxed with it.
She looked out the window, too, the world is so big that she can't go, whether it's wandering around or whatever, there will always be a bastard by her side, so she is not lonely at all.
Unconsciously, the carriage came to a majestic and magnificent mansion, the archway in front of the mansion is towering, carved with delicate and complex patterns, the carriage did not stop, from the side of the special car side of the auxiliary door into it, the bluestone paved horse road, the carriage all the way deep, planted on both sides of a variety of precious flowers and trees, as well as the guards wearing iron armor, holding spears, the momentum is mighty.
I don't know how long the carriage stopped, and the groom named Wei Zhong jumped down from the front of the carriage, carefully opened the door of the carriage, and said respectfully: "Miss Chuyun, we have arrived." ”
"Hmm."
Tsurumi Hatsuun got out of the car and looked at the layout of the mansion, the Zhu family's mansion was very large, comparable to the Tsurumi Mansion, but because of this, the whole mansion seemed a little cold.
"Where's my aunt?"
"They'll take you there."
Wei Zhong pointed to the guards who followed behind the carriage, and the two also dismounted, nodding at Tsurumi Hatsuun.
"Miss come with us, don't make Madame wait long."
"Well, lead the way."
She nodded in a flat tone, and followed the two guards into the magnificent main courtyard, not far away stood the main building was tall and magnificent, the glazed tiles were shining, and when the wind blew, the brass bells hanging under the eaves made a pleasant ringtone.
The relatively low buildings on either side missed the way, and through the long corridor, the delicate carved balustrades flickered through, until at last, two guards led her to stand at the door of a side hall.
Tuk tuk tuk ~
One of them reached out and tapped his knuckles on the door a few times, and there was a quick response from inside, the voice of a young woman.
"Who?"
"As Madame ordered, we brought someone over, right at the door."
"I see, then you guys go and let the young lady in."
Hearing this, the two guards looked at Tsurumi Hatsukumo, nodded to her and left, leaving her alone in front of the door.
"Xuanli ......"
"You go in."
Tsurumi Hatsuun had a nervous face, and took several deep breaths before slowly opening the door, and what came into view was the faces of two young women, looking at their costumes, they should be maids and other figures, which made her breathe a sigh of relief.
"Miss Hatsuun."
The two maids greeted her politely in unison, and then bypassed her, stepped over the threshold, and closed the door before she could react.
The lighting in the house is very good, and the sunlight that comes in is extremely soft, but the moment the door closes, the surrounding light is still dim.
The incense burner on the table was faintly sandalwood, the faint fragrance was in the air, and on the chair covered with a blanket, a gorgeous lady had a few yellowed ancient books in her arms, she slowly raised her head and looked at the girl's face, but the next second her brows furrowed.
"You are?"
"Niece Crane sees Chuyun and visits her aunt."
Tsurumi Hatsuyun hurriedly saluted, but the other party's brows furrowed even deeper, and his eyes were full of doubts.
"Are you Tsurumi Hatsukumo?"
At this time, Shen Yi reacted and hurriedly said, "Old witch! You haven't removed your makeup yet! ”
A sentence woke her up, she hurriedly raised her hand and tore off the mask on both sides of her cheeks, took out a wet towel and wiped it on her face, and changed her appearance in three or two strokes, revealing her original finely carved face like a work of art.
The lady was stunned, and suddenly smiled: "Yi Rong." She pointed to the chair next to her, "Sit down." ”
"Yes."
Tsurumi Hatsukumo walked over and sat down slowly, her hand nervously pinching the corner of her clothes, even though she had tried hard to keep herself natural.
Sitting next to the lady, she didn't know what to say for a while, and the other party kept looking at her.
The atmosphere stiffened for about five or six seconds, and Tsurumi Yanqiu suddenly reached out and touched her face, Tsurumi Hatsumo subconsciously dodged, but reacted and straightened his body.
"Auntie......"
The other party's hand touched her face, making her feel extremely shy, and her face turned red.
"I said, when I was a child, I thought you were a beautiful embryo, how can you not be beautiful when you grow up, right?"
"Hmmm......"
"This face is carved out of the same mold as your mother."
"Auntie, I ......"
"Okay, don't touch it, look at your blushing."
