Volume 3 Chang'an Rain Chapter 117 The Misfortune Caused by the Family Letter
After the wind and rain, the air in Chang'an City has also become much fresher, and it is faintly fragrant in the nose. The flowers are beautiful, and it is the season to see all the Chang'an flowers on this day.
After the so-called new rain in the empty mountain, the weather came late in autumn, and I just came to Chang'an and hit a heavy rain, maybe there was a little artistic conception of catching the wind and washing the dust, plus the rain broke through the overnight, maybe there was really a good omen.
Ling Jiang and Ya'er walked out of the inn, although it was still morning, there were already many pedestrians walking around on the street. Before going out, the two of them had already asked the second hall of the store for the location of the Guozijian and the Chang'an Dart Bureau. Although the shopkeeper has already said it in detail, because he is not familiar with Chang'an after all, and Chang'an City is really a little bigger, the two of them turned around twice, and they were originally walking towards Guozijian, but they went farther and farther.
Fortunately, after asking a few more passers-by and going around several times, I finally found the right route.
As if the color had cleared up today, a man wearing a hat on the road had attracted Ling Jiang's attention. The man held his hat so low that it was difficult to see what his face looked like in the crowd.
Ling Jiang only glanced at it inadvertently, and didn't pay too much attention to it.
But when the man walked to his side, a cold killing intent quietly overflowed, Ling Jiang was shocked, and subconsciously pushed Ya'er away. Who wanted to push like this, it happened to push Ya'er to a vendor carrying a flat burden, and the vegetables and fruits in the basket were suddenly scattered all over the ground.
"Don't you have long eyes when you walk?" the vendor turned and yelled.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry......" Ya'er didn't know what was going on, and she didn't dare to talk back, so she quickly nodded and apologized.
"Say I'm sorry and that's it, how do you think I'm going to accompany you?" shouted the vendor angrily.
Ya'er looked around, and the fruits that had rolled down nearby had been trampled by unsuspecting passers-by. Even if he wasn't stepped on, he was knocked a lot off the flat shoulder, at least his appearance was much worse.
Ling Jiang had been paying attention to the man in the hat at that time, and he didn't notice that there was anyone here. But when he pushed Ya'er, he found that the man in the hat was indifferent and passed by him, and he couldn't help frowning.
When he came back to his senses, it was long since there was no one in the crowd who was still wearing a hat.
"How much is your fruit, I will pay you. Ya'er whispered.
"It's not a question of money or not, do you know who this fruit is for?" the merchant became more and more annoyed, and raised his hand to fan Ya'er in the face.
Seeing this, Ling Jiang was about to step forward to stop him, but he saw a big hand pinching the vendor's wrist.
Seeing that he was stopped, the hawker was even more angry, and he raised his head and was about to scold, but immediately stopped.
"Yan ...... Yan Gongzi?" The peddler looked at the blue-robed man in front of him, so frightened that he couldn't speak. I saw that behind the man in Tsing Yi, there were also several entourages, looking at his posture, it must not be an ordinary identity.
Ya'er was frightened, and when she found that she was safe, she looked up and found that the vendor who stopped her was not her own son, and she couldn't help but stare at her big eyes with a puzzled look.
"Who did you just say, who is this fruit for?" asked the man in Tsing Yi.
"Hui Yan Gongzi, this is ...... The fruit set by Lord Zhang of Zhang's family banquet requires the villain to be delivered before noon today, and now that the fruit is broken, where can I go back and pick it in time. The vendor whispered.
"It turned out to be Lord Zhang's family banquet. The man in Tsing Yi nodded, turned to his entourage and said, "You go to Zhang's Mansion and tell him that the fruit will arrive later, don't rush." ”
"Wow. The attendant nodded, and quickly disappeared into the crowd.
The man in Tsing Yi then turned around, looked at the silent vendor and smiled, "Now you can go back to picking fruits with confidence, right?"
As he spoke, he stuffed a silver ingot into his hand, and although he couldn't see how much it was, he could guess the number from the faces of the vendors.
The vendor nodded his head again and again, picked up his flat shoulder and turned to leave.
"Thank you for your help. After the vendor left, Ya'er hurriedly thanked her softly, and Ling Jiang also followed along.
The man in Tsing Yi smiled and said, "This girl doesn't have to be polite, in Xia Yan Siming, I wonder if the two of you are free to go to my house to sit?"
When Ya'er heard this, she didn't dare to respond, but glanced back at Ling Jiang.
Ling Jiang shook his head, "Thank you Gongzi Yan for your kindness, but we still have something to do, please understand." ”
Yan Siming saw the relationship between Ling Jiang and Ya'er, and couldn't help nodding and said, "It's okay, I don't know what this brother is called?"
"In Xia Lingjiang, this is my maid Ya'er. Ling Jiang replied.
"Ling Jiang, Ya'er, good name. Yan Siming nodded slightly, intentionally or unintentionally sweeping his gaze over Ya'er's delicate little face, "Brother Ling Jiang walks slowly." ”
Seeing Ling Jiang and the others disappear into the crowd, Yan Siming turned sideways to an entourage and said, "Go and check the origin of these two people, if you don't have any backing, bring me the woman named Ya'er." ”
"Wow. The attendant nodded, trailing all the way up.
A smile appeared on the corner of Yan Siming's mouth, although she was just a maid from someone else's family, her temperament was different from that of many women in Chang'an, which was rare.
"Childe, what's going on, why was I pushed and scared Ya'er to death. Ya'er remembered the angry look of the little vendor just now, and she still had palpitations.
Ling Jiang smiled helplessly, it was indeed his responsibility to make this oolong. was about to make up a reason to prevaricate the past, but he subconsciously glanced at it and found that there was a gap in one corner of his hand.
"How could this be!" Ling Jiang said in surprise.
Ya'er followed the probe and looked closely, seeing Ling Jiang open the corner of his clothes, and asked curiously, "Strange, when I cleaned up my son's clothes last night, was this still good?"
"Could it be him?" Ling Jiang thought back, and suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.
This is a warning to him!
can quietly cut off the corners of his clothes, and naturally has the ability to take his life on the spot. In this way, if this person's cultivation is to practice martial arts, he is definitely on top of the Triple Mountain of Martial Arts, and may even have stepped into the Fivefold Mountain.
"Who the hell is it?" Ling Jiang's heart was beating at the moment, and it was difficult for him to calm down. I almost brushed shoulders with death, and I didn't know it, who can make a decision?
"Childe, what are you talking about?" Ya'er saw that Ling Jiang was suddenly sweating profusely, and the whole person was also panicked, and hurriedly took out a handkerchief to help him wipe his sweat.
"I'm fine, maybe I ate too much this morning, and I have a stomach upset, don't walk around here, I'll go to the thatched house." Ling Jiang took a few deep breaths, which eased his turbulent mood a little, and casually made an excuse, he took a detour to the back of a shop, and was alone and quiet.
He didn't dare to go too far away from Ya'er, for fear that he wouldn't know what was going on.
Ling Jiang thought to himself, "What exactly does that person want to warn me?"
He and Ya'er have just come to Chang'an, and it is impossible to provoke any enemies, even if they inadvertently provoke others, how will they know when they will come to Chang'an?
But the man with the hat was obviously doing it on purpose, although it was certain that they would not kill themselves when they didn't do anything out of the ordinary. But this is like falling asleep with the back of a knife, how can people feel at ease?
Ling Jiang took a look at what he was going to do when he came to Chang'an, and what of these things he did might cause others to be angry.
One is to send a letter, and the other is to go to the Chang'an Dart Bureau to inquire about the family letter.
The purpose of sending the letter is to go to the Guozijian, which is the territory of the imperial court, and he doesn't even know what the content of the letter is.
If it's not a message, it's only ...... This letter from Chang'an.
"So, that person doesn't want me to investigate the matter of this family letter?" Ling Jiang thought back vigorously, and there were indeed many doubts and problems in this family letter.
If my father has been in Chang'an, why hasn't he sent home books for so many years?
How can we explain that the letter sent home is just an empty envelope?
Also, was this letter sent by my father personally?
These three questions are the key to this chess game.
Now it is certain that as long as Ling Jiang does not go to the Chang'an dart game, maybe the man with the hat will never attack him again, but once he goes to the dart game and finds out what secrets he should not explore, then his fate may be......
