Because there are still some old eunuchs and old palace maids in the old palace to retire here, and Ma Yong has not been back here in the past few days, Du Cheng and the four of them have rested here in the old palace for a few days.

After all, you can go to the kitchens of those old palace maids and eunuchs to steal food, and no one dares to come in if you live in this Qianqing Palace, but every morning an old eunuch will come over and clean it casually and leave.

After living in the Qianqing Palace in the old palace for three days, Du Bu did not forget to secretly go to the city to inquire, and found that at this time, the city seemed to have stopped searching for a few of his own people, and everything was restored to the way it was before.

After Du Buyi returned to the Qianqing Palace in the old palace, he discussed with Mingxi, Mrs. Liu Sheng, and Liu Sheng Zongyan.

I just heard Du not forget to say:

"I went to check it out, and I think we should send Madam and Zong Yan to the ferry as soon as possible, and let you leave the Central Plains by boat is the safest!"

Mrs. Yanagi had already recovered from the pain of losing her husband a few days ago, and nodded:

"Brother Du, everything is up to you!"

Then Du Bu Bu took the three of them, quietly bypassed the old palace and returned to the city, and then began to find a way out of the city, after all, although the search at the city gate had been relaxed at this time, there were still portraits of a few people who were arrested.

At this time, the four of them each brought a straw hat and stood in a corner in front of the north gate of Nanjing, discussing how to get out of the city.

I only heard Mingxi say:

"I think we'd better modify it again, and then when we go out of the city, we should be able to sneak some silver into the soldiers who are inspecting. ”

The young Yanagi Zongyan on the side immediately said:

"Sister Mingxi, this is not good, let's go out and stuff silver for those soldiers, isn't there a little like you Central Plains people said to cover your ears and steal the bell? ”

Mrs. Yanagi glanced at her son Yanagi Zongyan:

"Zong'er, we just listen to what your Aunt Mingxi and Uncle Du say, what do you know?"

Liu Sheng Zongyan said with some dissatisfaction at this time:

"Mother, I know a lot better than you, you can ask Uncle Du?"

Du did not forget to say:

"Zong Yan is indeed reasonable, and the matter of stuffing silver into officers and soldiers will definitely not work. ”

Mingxi asked again:

"So what should I do?"

At this time, there was a festive sound of gongs and drums beating in the city, and from a distance, it seemed that the bride in the city was going to marry outside the city and was about to pass through the city gate.

Du did not forget the inspiration and said:

"I know what to do, you come with me. ”

After a while, the welcoming procession arrived at the city gate, and was naturally stopped by the city gate guards.

The bridegroom, a fat man with a round head and big ears on a white horse, saw that his party's welcoming party was stopped by the guards at the city gate, and he jumped off the horse very angrily, but at once he broke his leg and screamed in pain.

Several servants on the side hurriedly rushed over to support the bridegroom.

The bridegroom, supported by two servants, pointed to a group of guards and scolded:

"Don't you know my son? I dare to interfere with my son's wedding and delay my son's time, I will definitely let the prefect treat you for a serious crime!"

One of the generals walked up to the boy and smiled:

"Young Master Xu, we are also acting on orders, please cooperate with the investigation, you don't have to scare us with your uncle and prefect, even if the prince and nobles pass here, they have to accept the interrogation, this is the order of Gonggong Ma. ”

The bridegroom was very angry and drank away from the two servants beside him, rushed to the general and pushed it, but the general did not move, and the groom was bounced back a few steps away.

At this time, the bridegroom was even more angry, pointing at the general and saying angrily:

"Okay, you Su Qiyu, since you came to spoil my good things on my big day, you wait for me!"

Then he said to the greeting team behind him:

"Since they won't let us go out of the city and go home, we'll break out!"

At this time, a group of archers immediately surrounded the city gate, and the general Su Qiyu said loudly to the bridegroom just now:

"Young Master Xu, please accept the interrogation!"

The groom, Xu Gongzi, couldn't help but be frightened when he saw the officers and soldiers fighting like this, but he was still bold, pointed at the general Su Qiyu and said:

"Okay, you Su Qiyu, you remember your insult to me Xu Yingxun today, and I will pay it back tenfold one day!"

Let his head be raised, and he said again:

"Search for it!"

At this time, seven or eight more officers and men began to inspect the people in the welcoming procession one by one.

Xu Yingxun saw that Su Qiyu was walking towards his bride's sedan chair at this time, and hurriedly ran to the sedan chair to stop Su Qiyu, and scolded:

"Su Qiyu, you turtle bastard, what do you want to do?"

Su Qiyu replied:

"Of course, the sedan chair has been searched, Xu Gongzi, if there is any offense, I will come to apologize in the future. ”

Then pushed Xu Yingxun away, and walked towards the sedan chair, just as Su Qiyu was about to open the sedan curtain, Xu Yingxun ran over, hugged Su Qiyu directly, and said:

"Don't try to take advantage of my wife, if you dare to open the sedan curtain and insult my newlywed wife's innocence, I will die with you. ”

Su Qiyu directly opened Xu Yingxun with one palm, and then lifted the sedan curtain with his hand, but just opened a little gap, and suddenly a cool breeze hit behind him.

Su Qiyu immediately turned around and jumped to the side, Xu Yingxun took the dagger and instantly stabbed the air, and rushed directly to the sedan chair, and suddenly a woman jumped out of nowhere and knocked Xu Yingxun to the side.

Looking at this person, isn't this the same Yushang who was injured a few days ago?

After Su Qiyu saw Youshang, he came forward and asked:

"Girl, I don't know what happened here?"

Youshang smiled at Su Qiyu:

"General Su, I happened to be passing by here, and I saw a lot of people watching the excitement here, so I came to see what was going on!"

苏七余 says:

"So that's the case, we are investigating the wanted criminals here, and this Xu Yingxun relied on himself to get close to the prefect and refused to accept our interrogation, so it became like this. ”

Yoyo said:

"Since today is the day of Xu Gongzi's great joy and the day when the bride goes home, why don't I let me check the inside of the sedan chair for General Su, after all, we are all women, so we will not neglect Xu Gongzi's newlywed wife, I don't know what you think, General Su?"

Su Qiyu hurriedly replied:

"That's really good, it's great, after all, you are the righteous daughter of Ma Gonggong, and I am also dedicated to doing things for Ma Gonggong. ”

Youshang then said to Su Qiyu and Xu Yingxun on the side:

"Then it's troublesome for the two to let go, after all, the bride hasn't visited the church yet, and it's unlucky to be seen. ”

The two of them immediately stood aside.

At this time, Youshang slowly turned around, walked to the sedan door, gently opened a short section of the sedan curtain, and then immediately put it down again, and said to the inside:

"This bride, you are so beautiful, cover your hijab well!"

A woman's voice came out from inside:

"Thank you, sister, for reminding me. ”

After Youshang walked back to Su Qiyu, he said:

"There are no suspicious people in the sedan chair, only Xu Gongzi's bride is sitting inside!"

Su Qiyu smiled, and then said to Xu Yingxun on the side:

"Xu Gongzi forgives me for being offended, I will definitely come to the door another day to ask for guilt!"

Xu Yingxun still said to Su Qiyu angrily:

"Okay, you Su Qiyu, you wait for me!"

Then the two servants helped each other to get on the white horse they had ridden before, and led the welcoming procession out of the city gate.

After arriving not far outside the city, the eight sedan chair bearers were actually sweating profusely at this time.

I only heard one of the sedan chair drivers say to the other:

"Brother, have you noticed how our sedan chair is so heavy, it was light when we were in the city before!"

The palanquin man next to him nodded:

"Yes, I also think something is wrong, can the bride become heavier all of a sudden?"

At this time, the welcoming team had already entered a forest, Xu Yingxun also got off the horse, and then shouted to the team:

"Let's rest here for a while, the sun is too big today, and the heat is killing me!"

Then with the help of the two servants, he walked to the sedan chair and said to the inside:

"Lady, it's so hot, do you want to come out and breathe?"

A sentence came from inside the sedan chair:

"Xianggong, you are hot like this, you go over there to enjoy the cool first, and then let these sedan chair drivers and other people also go over to rest together, I can just be alone in the sedan chair, this road is noisy, my ears are almost deaf, I want to be clean alone." ”

Xu Yingxun hurriedly asked again:

"Lady...... This...... Let's all go over there to cool off, won't you be afraid in a sedan chair?"

A coquettish voice came from inside the sedan chair:

"Xianggong, you just listen to the lady, go first, I can't run away here, I remember that my mother taught me a sentence, at home during the day Xianggong has to listen to me, at night I can listen to your words!"

Xu Yingxun became excited when he heard this:

"Lady, are you telling the truth?"

A sentence came from inside the sedan chair:

"Of course, Xianggong, you can go quickly!"

Xu Yingxun immediately shouted at the sedan chair man and the others:

"What are you still doing here? Didn't you hear Madame say that you should accompany me over there to enjoy the shade, and let it be here alone, and you will have to listen to Madame's words in the future?"

As he spoke, he took all of them to a nearby shade under a large tree.

At this time, three people suddenly came out of the sedan chair, and naturally Mingxi, Mrs. Yanagi and his son Yanagi Zongyan were strict.

The three of them were also sweating profusely at this time, and they only heard Yanagi Zongyan say:

"Aunt Mingxi, you really acted like you, but Xu Gongzi didn't suspect you at all!"

Mingxi wiped the beads of sweat from his forehead, quickly took off the bridal outfit, put it back in the sedan chair, turned around and said:

"It's so hot, didn't my husband say to meet us outside the city? Why hasn't it come yet?"

Mrs. Yanagi pulled the sleeve of her shirt:

"Sister Mingxi, let's hurry up and leave first, otherwise it will be troublesome when Xu Gongzi and those people see it. ”

The three of them didn't have time to think about it, and hurriedly walked towards the north in the direction of Dajiang Ferry.
