Brother Wanfu

Chapter 65 The Bride
The brother-in-law suddenly looked over.

For a moment, Qin Tian inexplicably noticed a trace of dullness in him, but Shen Xiao suddenly interrupted her thoughts.

"Tian Tian, ​​you don't know kung fu, why don't you pretend to be a dowry maid and sit with the bride in a sedan chair and a carriage."

Qin Tian nodded and said good, "I'll follow your arrangement."

After she finished speaking, she followed the flash of thought just now and looked at the elder brother, but he had already withdrawn his gaze, and as for the dullness she had inexplicably noticed, he couldn't see it anymore.

He just listened to the people talking, and called Fu Wen over to give some instructions.

According to everyone's discussion, Qin Shen's men pretended to be a wedding reception team and left, while Bai Chen followed Li Weizhen in the Li family's caravan and left with Li Weizhen's people.

Ning County is full of marriage matters. Because of the chaos in Yanzhou behind, many families stuff their daughters directly into the sedan chair and get married in a hurry.In this way, Li Weizhen sent people to the street to buy things for the wedding, which were completely inconspicuous, and they were all bought in just one afternoon.

Strict investigations were carried out in the city, and the yard where they temporarily stayed was also searched, but it was not a problem to hide Bai Chen Yueying safely.And just as Qin Shen said, the officers and soldiers found some "clues" outside the city, and the city gate was no longer blocked the next day.

On the morning of the day when she was about to leave, Yueying smeared her face with thick powder. She wore the bride's red wedding dress, and she looked like a fugitive felon. Even Qin Tian and Shen Xiao felt that this was who bride at home.

The two little girls were all dumbfounded.

Someone coughed lowly at the window.

"What are the two little girls looking at? No matter how beautiful they are, they can't stare at them. Didn't they see that the bride's face turned red?"

After getting acquainted for two days, Bai Chen casually got a lot closer when he talked.

As soon as Bai Chen opened his mouth, Shen Xiao spoke very honestly.

"How did Uncle Bai see that Sister Yueying's face was blushing, she's got such a thick powder on her face?"

Unexpectedly, Bai Chen didn't respond to her words, but said something instead.

"Little girl is not sensible, what is her name?"

Shen Xiao: "."

Qin Tian covered his mouth and snickered.

On Yueying's face covered with heavy makeup, it seemed that some blush really appeared.

She coughed and glanced at Bai Chen.

The latter folded his arms and laughed, whispering something in her ear.

"You look better when you smile."

Yueying didn't want to pay attention to him, but in his smiling eyes, the corners of his lips curled into a slight smile.

After fleeing for so many days, these two days are the most peaceful time.

Bai Chen was about to leave with Li Weizhen's people, so before he left, he explained a few words.

Shen Xiao also dressed up and stayed beside Yue Ying, while Qin Tian thought of her elder brother, wondering if the elder brother also changed into new clothes.

But when she went to look for him, he didn't change into the wedding clothes, he was still dressed in a black brocade robe, standing in front of the hall and listening to the people below.

Thinking of the deserted sense of distance emanating from his brother-in-law in the past few days, Qin Tian didn't bother, quietly glanced at the door, then turned and left.

Fu Wen was reporting the matter according to the young master's instructions, but he didn't want the young master to stop halfway through his speech, and his eyes slightly lifted to the direction of the door to look over.

Fu Wen also looked over, but saw nothing, only the leaves of the bushes by the door were blown by the wind.

And the young master also looked away, and his voice lowered a little.

"continue."

Qin Tian didn't see his brother changing clothes until he was about to leave.

He seldom wears brightly colored clothes, and when he suddenly appeared in front of everyone in a red wedding dress, everyone was taken aback.

But Bai Chen wasn't around, so no one dared to make fun of him.

Qin Tian bit his lip and didn't say anything, but couldn't help but glanced several times.

It's just that although he was wearing a wedding dress, there was no joy on his face, and he couldn't even see any emotion.

He just gave orders.

"Count the people and horses and get on the road."

According to the customs in the city, even if a girl marries far away, she still rides in a sedan chair in the city.

Qin Tian, ​​the little dowry maid, also followed on both sides of the sedan chair.

Li Weizhen was extremely well prepared, and there was also a guard of honor leading the way.

The happy events continued for a month, and passers-by no longer held an attitude of being rare. Although the officers and soldiers were still investigating, the focus was on the outside of the city. When they arrived at the gate of the city, Qin Shen asked people to come forward and give the officers and soldiers Wedding candy and money, those officers and soldiers only checked the people on both sides of the sedan chair, and let them go when they saw nothing unusual.

Everyone went out of the city, just like other wedding reception teams, the bride was even transferred to the carriage under the eyes of the officers and soldiers.

The corners of the red hijab swayed slowly under the blowing of the summer wind, and the dowry maid helped the bride and got into the carriage together.

Changing from the sedan chair to the horse, the speed of leaving suddenly increased.

The soldiers who were checking at the gate of the city didn't pay much attention to it, they just felt that the team of picking up the bride who had just passed by was quick in their hands and feet, and left quickly.

But not long after, another team of Chuichuidada's pick-up team came out.

There are many people getting married every day, and the calculated auspicious times are not too different. The officers and soldiers didn't care. Only one soldier took a look at the clothes on the bride's body, and it looked the same as the team that had just passed.

"Why is a girl from the Li family married again?"

He muttered something, feeling something was wrong, and just about to speak to the captain above him, the captain hurriedly called everyone.

"Quickly cheer up and stop gossiping, Commander-in-Chief is here!"

With that shout, the little soldier dared to say nothing, he quickly shut his mouth and lined up behind the veteran to meet the commander of the third rank.

Commander Huang didn't care about the little soldiers at the gate of the city. He just felt that his official career was bleak, just like the eunuch from the capital said, "One of these two criminals can't work hard, so he can get out of prison twice. Officers and soldiers slipped away under our noses, our family really doesn’t know how Commander Huang got this officer!”

Right now, the chief eunuch came to Ning County in person, and Commander Huang accompanied him up the tall city gate building sweating profusely, but his heart felt cold.

"The sun is getting higher and higher. If my father-in-law should go to the county government office to cool off, the soldiers I sent will report if they have any news."

But it was too listening, just sneered again and again.

"When the news is sent, do you want to say that the person ran away under your nose?"

Huang commanded a bean-sized bead of sweat to fall from his forehead with a bang.

"I have already reprimanded the people below, they will never dare to neglect again, and everyone who comes and goes will check carefully."

"Everyone?"

Huang Xian looked down and saw that there was a procession to meet the bride passing by the gate of the city.

"Why did our family look at the bride in the sedan chair without checking, what if the singer dressed up as a bride?"

As soon as these words came out, even Huang Xian himself was taken aback.

Commander Huang and Huang Xian looked at each other in surprise.

The eunuch's voice became thinner.

"They won't really pretend to be newcomers, passing the officers and soldiers' sight?"

Commander Huang still couldn't believe it, "There are only two of them, how can they command a team?"

"How do you know that there are only two of them? When Yueying appeared a few days ago, the one who shocked the horse came at such a time, maybe there was someone else helping. If so, take Yueying out as a bride under the hijab. Isn't that a good idea?!"

The eunuch's shrill voice almost pierced Commander Huang's eardrums.

He hastily called his subordinates, "Hurry up, let the soldiers not miss the bride by mistake, and even take off the hijab to see clearly! Anyone who dares to confuse the errand will be severely punished!"

The generals under him hurried away, Commander Huang breathed a sigh of relief, but he could only come to his family's eunuch and let out a cold snort.

*
After rushing for a day, they passed the last hurdle and left from the Xuzhou prefecture.

In the scorching summer, everyone was sweating profusely, and the moon shadow under the hijab couldn't help asking Qin Tian, ​​"Miss Qin, help me take a look, is there any makeup?"

Lifting the hijab, Qin Tian took a look and frowned.

Under the sweat, some of the thick powder had come off, and Yue Ying's face was slightly exposed.

She told Yueying the truth, but persuaded her, ".I'm leaving soon. No officers and soldiers lifted their hijabs along the way. It should be fine."

Unexpectedly, as soon as he finished speaking, he heard the sound of the horse whipping outside, and it came to the carriage.

Qin Tian lifted the curtain of the car and took a look, seeing that the people who looked like officers and soldiers passed by on a fast horse, a bad premonition suddenly appeared in his mind.

She didn't dare to look more and quickly covered the car curtain.

Qin Shen, who was sitting on a horse beside him, gave Fu Wen some instructions in a low voice.

Ahead is the last hurdle to leave Xuzhou, so don't let anything happen at this time.

Fu Wen quickly left and returned, Qin Shen secretly thought something was wrong when he saw his tense expression, and Fu Wen really spoke.

"Young master, the person who passed by just now was the person sent by Commander Huang, who delivered Commander Huang's order."

"What order?"

Fu Wen sighed, "Commander Huang ordered the officers and soldiers to strictly check everyone passing by, and the bride must also lift her hijab to check carefully!"

Qin Shen frowned.

On the road that was almost sunburned by the scorching sun, the summer wind also stagnated.

Yueying and Qin Tian in the car also heard this, sweat dripped from Yueying's forehead, and her make-up became more smudged.

Qin Tian and Yueying looked at each other, turned around and called the young man on the horse outside the car.

"Brother, are we?"

She wanted to avoid the checkpoint for the time being, and find another way to leave, but before she could say anything, she saw a group of officers and soldiers approaching in front of her.

As soon as the horse's hooves approached, Qin Shen heard it. His eyes fell to the left and right, and the private soldiers who were pretending to be married all tensed up.

And the team of officers and soldiers also saw the procession on the road, the general in charge looked them up and down, and suddenly led his troops to approach them.

Seeing this situation, Qin Shen made the worst preparations in his heart, but he didn't show it on the surface, and signaled Wei You to step forward.

Wei You hurriedly stepped forward, "Masters, you have to run errands in this hot weather, it's hard work." He said, and put the money bag into the hands of the officers and soldiers in charge, "This is my master's wish, a little tea money."

The officer and soldier glanced at it and was not in a hurry to ask for it.

"Since we know it's on business, let the bride come down. We checked the people carefully according to the instructions from above, and then let you go."

Qin Shen frowned upon hearing this.

He got off his horse and stepped forward, a bright red wedding dress was very eye-catching.

"This military master, I don't know how to investigate carefully?"

Seeing his demeanor, the officer and soldier paused for a moment, but still said, "Naturally, the bride should come down and take a closer look, otherwise how can it be called a close inspection?"

Qin Shen laughed as soon as he heard it, "But the wedding rules don't allow the bride to lift her hijab at this time." He gestured behind him again, and Fu Wen took out two bulging money bags again, adding The one given by Wei You just above has a total of three purses, about a few tens of taels of silver, which is not a small amount of money.

The officers and soldiers at the head looked at him and hesitated for a while.

But he suddenly thought of the news just now. Not only did they say to check on the bride, but they also said that if anyone dared to refuse to carry out, they would report to each other and take them down immediately. No one should be neglected!

He doesn't want to lose his official status!
"Take it back!" The officer suddenly raised his hand, and the officers and soldiers behind him immediately surrounded the convoy.

"Hmph! You stopped the officers and soldiers from investigating the serious criminals. Could it be that the bride in the car is the wanted criminal?!"

He pointed at the carriage, "Pull the bride down!"

As soon as these words came out, Qin Shen's expression darkened instantly.

The private soldiers of the Qin family who were dressed as a wedding reception team tensed up.

The sword is drawn, and it is on the verge of fire.

However, just when Qin Shen was about to give an order, a voice like a clear spring in the mountains suddenly came from the carriage, calling him.

"Husband!"

Qin Shen was taken aback for a moment, and there was silence in his ears.

He heard the voice say, "Since the official wants to investigate, I'll just come down."

While talking, someone lifted the curtain of the car with bare hands and came down.

She was wearing a bright red wedding dress embroidered with golden silk flowers, and covered her head with a hijab with four corners of pearls.

The pearls adorning the horns were shaking, and she raised her hand to lift off the hijab.

The setting sun in the west setting mountains blurred a large fiery red sky behind her. Standing in the fiery red center, she lifted her hijab and was the most dazzling ruby.

Qin Shen looked over and froze in place.

　good night.
