Chapter 62: Zhen Yuer
In the light of the oil lamp, Wu Zheng suddenly found that the girl in front of him was the girl in a goose yellow dress who walked with Qinglian on the official road when she entered the city in the morning.
And Yu'er also recognized Wu Zheng, immediately blinked a pair of good-looking eyes, and asked with a smile:
"What's your name, do you know Sister Qinglian?"
"Could it be that you are also surnamed Zhen?"
Wu Zheng's rhetorical question undoubtedly gave Yu'er a positive answer.
"Giggles, you really know Sister Qinglian. Tell me, how did you know each other? Why didn't you recognize Sister Qinglian on the official road outside the city in the morning? No wonder Sister Qinglian looked depressed all morning. ”
"Does Qinglian recognize me?!"
Yu'er's words couldn't help but surprise and disappoint Wu Zheng. The scene of meeting Mr. Zhen Qingyi on the street suddenly flashed in my mind.
"If I recognize it, can I not talk to you? Sister Qinglian was so embarrassed that she didn't look up when she was hit by you, where would she recognize you? However, it should be from your 'sorry' that I heard something, maybe because of this, it aroused a trace of sadness in Sister Qinglian's heart. ”
The pretty face that seemed to be smiling was full of playfulness, and then continued:
"If my guess is right, Sister Qinglian should have you in her heart. Tell my sister, how did you meet?"
Wu Zheng did not refute the girl's self-proclaimed "sister", but replied honestly:
"I, we are fellow countrymen. Last year, I read a book with Mr. Zhen for three months. ”
"You're also from Houpo Village, Jue County, what's your name?"
Wu Zheng was a little hesitant, should he tell the girl in front of him his real name or a fake name? After thinking for a while, he replied:
"Wu Zheng. ”
"Wu Zheng, a strange name, why have you never heard Sister Lian'er mention it?"
Seeing the girl in front of him bowing her head thoughtfully, Wu Zheng took the opportunity to say:
"Excuse me, Miss, it's time for me to go. ”
As he spoke, he was about to turn around.
"Wait, don't you want to meet Lian'er, don't you want to meet Mr.?"
Wu Zheng wanted to tell the scene of meeting Zhen Qingyi on the street, but in the end he held back.
"It's the third watch in the middle of the night, so let's visit Mr. again in the future. ”
"Then you broke into Miss Ben's boudoir in the middle of the night and ruined Miss Ben's reputation, what do you say about this?"
"I, I, I'm sorry. ”
Where did Wu Zheng know what to do, he could only bend down deeply and apologize to the girl again.
"Does an apology work, does an apology save my reputation?"
"So, what did the young lady say?"
"If tonight's events get out....... ”
Speaking of this, Yu'er suddenly paused.
When Wu Zheng looked up, he found that the girl who was smiling and moaning just now suddenly looked like she was crying.
"I, I, I didn't mean to. I, promise, will not say it to anyone. ”
Where has Wu Zheng experienced such a thing, and suddenly he stammered when he spoke.
"How can I convince me that you won't tell anyone?"
Wu Zheng was stunned, except for swearing, he couldn't think of a better way for a while, so he raised his right hand lightly and was about to swear.
"Hmph, I don't believe in the oath. ”
Yu'er, who was originally in tears, was amused by the embarrassment on Wu Zheng's face after saying this, and actually laughed out loud.
"Why didn't you ask me what my name was?"
Wu Zheng was really overwhelmed by Yu'er's run, and when he heard the other party ask, he had to ask along with the meaning of the words:
"Miss, may I ask her name?"
"Yo, I think I've really read a book. Remember, my name is Yu'er, so you can call me Sister Yu'er like Lian'er. ”
Xu found that the sky was already slightly bright, so Yu'er let Wu Zheng go:
"Remember that you can't tell anyone about tonight in the future, and besides, you are not allowed to leave Suncheon City for three months. Can you do it?"
Wu Zheng, who had already been flustered by Yu'er, nodded hurriedly.
Until he returned to the inn room and was lying on the bed with his clothes, Wu Zheng was still a little chaotic in his mind.
The scenes that happened in Liufu and Yu'er's room this night kept replaying in my mind, and countless questions naturally hit my mind.
Who is Huatoutuo in the Western Regions?
This is almost confusing for Wu Zheng, who has just entered the rivers and lakes.
The so-called heir of Huatoutuo in the Western Regions, because the night is too dark, he has always only seen a vague figure, and the girl with the sword seems to be helping herself intentionally or unintentionally, why?
Could the recent successive burglaries in Suncheon City be the work of a girl with a sword? Otherwise, why would Liu Shiqing say the sentence "The old man has been waiting for you for a long time"?
Who was the person who secretly rescued himself from Taishi Liu Shiqing?
Do you know each other with the sword-wielding girl of the heir of Huatoutuo in the Western Regions?
Why did Taishi Liu Shiqing leave the girl with the sword alone, but he had to catch himself? Is it because he found out that he could also "Lingyun Footwork"?
Also, why did he fall into the yard of Qinglian's second uncle, Zhen Qingshen, and it happened to be the backyard where Yu'er lived? Is it just a coincidence?
Why didn't you see a trace of fear and panic on Yu'er's face from beginning to end?
How dare an ordinary girl be?
As a result, Wu Zheng had to wonder if the window sash opened by Yu'er was also intentional?
In particular, after Yu'er knew about her relationship with Qinglian, she didn't even mention a word, and she wanted to tell Qinglian about her coming to Suncheon City and even passing by Qinglian outside the city, was it just that Yu'er forgot it for a while?
Why didn't Yu'er leave Suncheon City for three months?
Wu Zheng, who was lying on the bed, became more and more chaotic the more he thought about it, because he hadn't slept all night, he fell asleep unconsciously. When he opened his eyes again, it was already past noon, and the sun in the sky was already in the west, so it was estimated that it should be around the time of Shen.
After changing the blue cloth jacket on his body and putting on the long shirt he bought again, Wu Zheng washed up, and then retreated from the inn room and went to the street. Sneaked all the way to the door of Liufu, wanting to see the movement of Liufu.
To Wu Zheng's surprise, there was silence in front of the Liufu Mansion, and there was no sound coming from inside.
Could it be that what happened last night, the Taishi Mansion didn't tell the Shuntian Mansion?
Along the courtyard wall on the west side of the Liufu, I came to the northwest corner where I had climbed into it last night, and observed it carefully for a while, and at the same time visually measured the distance that was thrown out by the person in the dark with something like a soft whip wrapped around my waist.
Wu Zheng's estimate was immediately taken aback by the results.
From the courtyard wall where the arrow bamboo looming in Liufu is located, to the backyard of Zhen Qingshen's house across the street, there is a distance of five zhang, to say the least. From this, it is not difficult to judge how much power the person who secretly throws himself out. Even if his body is on the thin side, he is more than eighty pounds, close to ninety pounds. Just relying on the strength of his arm, he can throw out five zhang away, and under the premise that he must beware of the attack of Taishi Liu Shiqing, this can't help but make Wu Zheng speechless.
Standing outside the wall of the east courtyard of the backyard where Yu'er lived, Wu Zheng wanted to jump up and see the situation inside, and even turned to the gate of the Zhen family, and looked inside two more times intentionally or unintentionally.
Although when he met Qinglian outside the city yesterday, he comforted himself with the excuse that he was an ominous person, but his heart still longed to see Qinglian again.
In the end, Wu Zheng was still disappointed. didn't want people passing by on the street, or even the Zhen family, to see his abnormality, so after walking back and forth, Wu Zheng left with a wistful heart. And the footsteps did not stop, one way out of the city through the East City Gate, turned off the official road, and returned to the mountains and wilderness where he had spent the night before.
