Fast Travel: Crazy Criticism of Beauty Always Conspiring against Me

Chapter 112 The Rain Falls Rouge Tears, Pear Blossom Plays Begonia (36)

The cold wind is bleak, the ruined temples in the outskirts of the city

It rained suddenly last night, pattering.

Song Ci spent the night in a nearby ruined temple.

With map in hand.

Looking up, he saw that the weather had cleared up outside, so he got back into the carriage and started on the road.

It took several days to arrive near Youzhou.

See that towering tower.

Standing under the tower, looking at the word Youzhou written on the tower, he breathed a sigh of relief and walked in.

Youzhou is a bitterly cold place on the frontier, unlike other cities where refugees must check their documents to enter.

Here the sky is high and the emperor is far away, most of the outsiders are traitors, and the people in Youzhou are dissatisfied with politics, which makes the whole Youzhou have its own system.

When I first entered Youzhou, it was not as bad and bleak as I imagined. It was similar to other cities and there were many street vendors.

People here are generally stronger than Ming, probably because of the environment.

Song Ci came here for the first time, and he didn't have a specific route, only knowing that they were dispatched to Youzhou, but he didn't know where it was.

Stop a person directly, "Excuse me, do you know where the Song family is?"

The tall man looked at the slender and slender young man in front of him, who seemed out of place with the surrounding environment.

"You're talking about the Song family who was assigned here years ago?"

Song Ci nodded: "Do you know where they are?"

"I don't know, you can ask someone else." The man waved his hand and walked away.

After asking several people in succession, he sat on the steps by the bridge and looked down at the flow of people beside him.

"What happened? Why everyone..."

As soon as he finished speaking, someone walked towards him.

The young man was still holding something wrapped in oiled paper.

"You are looking for the Song family?"

"Ah."

Seeing Song Ci looking up, the young man was a little surprised at his appearance, which suddenly turned into excitement: "Little Ci'er!"

Song Ci was hugged suddenly.

Song Zhi stroked his thin cheek, looking at his sister distressedly.

"elder brother."

In memory, although he is the youngest child in the family, even if everyone doesn't like him, Song Zhi has always cared about him, and he is one of the few people besides his parents who know that she is a girl.

"Sister, I thought you would never come back..." Song Zhi's throat choked up.

At that time, knowing how angry he was when Song Ci was taken away by Xiao He, his family all persuaded him that it was better for Song Ci to be suffered by the little prince than to suffer here.

He didn't trust Xiao He, but he still didn't want his sister to suffer in this bitter cold place.

"Why do you want to come to Youzhou?"

Song Ci took Song Zhi's hand and said, "It's a long story, let's talk about it when we go back."

Song Zhi took him to a simple farmyard, and shouted to the woman who was watering the vegetables, "Ms. Zhang, guess who I brought back?"

"Who?"

Zhang Niang smiled and got up and put away her apron. When she saw Song Ci, tears flickered in her eyes. She walked over quickly and grabbed Song Ci's hand.

"Cici, you're here."

Seeing a familiar person, I couldn't stop being moved, "Ms. Zhang."

Zhang Niang is his mother's dowry maid who grew up with her as a brother and sister, and called her Zhang Niang just like her mother since she was a child.

Song Ci seldom had contact with her parents since she was a child. It was Zhang Niang who raised her, so she was closer to Zhang Niang in her heart.

"You go into the house, I'll cook." Zhang Niang cheerfully went to the kitchen to cook.

Song Zhi held Song Ci's hand and asked, "Little Ci'er, how have you been doing this year?"

"Did Xiao He bully you?"

Song Zhi remembered that before Song Ci always said that Xiao He was so good, but he always felt uncomfortable and felt that Xiao He was not a good thing.

Song Ci's mind suddenly remembered that he and his brother only said Xiao He was good, the corners of his mouth twitched, and he immediately blinked his eyes.

He told Song Zhi about Xiao He's crimes with an aggrieved face.

Song Zhi gritted his teeth angrily, and slammed his fist on the table, "This Xiao He is really not a thing! How dare you bully my sister!"

Song Ci looked at him beating the wooden table to the point where it was about to break, "Brother..."

Only then did Song Zhi pay attention.

Song Zhi, who thought he was scaring his sister, immediately pointed to the opposite side: "Little Ci'er, look there is something over there!"

Song Ci looked at his flustered expression, and looked back cooperatively.

Song Zhi reached out to break off the piece, and hid the thing under his stool.

"Nothing at all?"

Song Zhi coughed, "Maybe I was wrong."

Song Ci saw that a corner was obviously missing, turning into a square wooden table with five sides, his eyelids twitched and he didn't speak.

"..."

Are you sure this isn't deception?
Well, I didn't see that...

Song Zhi paid attention to her gaze and looked this way: "Sister, you said you still came to find someone else, maybe I know who that person is."

"Don't worry about it." Song Ci continued, "Where is Mother now? I have something to ask her."

Song Zhi couldn't put it into words: "Mother is not here, but in the City Lord's Mansion."

"I'm going to find her now. I have to ask her face to face about some things."

"No, we can't even enter the City Lord's Mansion."

Song Ci couldn't help frowning, looked at Song Zhi and asked, "Did anything happen during this time?"

Song Zhi said: "From the day we were determined to be assigned, my mother has become very strange and always talking to herself... Zhang Niang persuaded me that it was because of the disappearance of my father that my mother's personality changed drastically. .”

"Why is she in the City Lord's Mansion?"

Reminiscent of her and Xiao He's act of signing a sell-off contract, I had some guesses in my heart.

Seeing Song Zhi's silent expression.

Instantly understood.

"Did she fall in love with the city lord or the city lord took a fancy to her?"

Song Zhi grabbed Song Ci's hand and begged and replied, "Little Ci'er, please stop asking, okay?"

The will of the original owner made Song Ci feel tight in his chest.

Song Ci indifferently listened to the voice roaring in his mind.

Even so, are you still willing to protect her forever?

That voice said:

"She has a reason.

She is a princess who is always high above her.

She won't do that, she loves her father very much, she won't betray her father..."

Song Ci shook her head in her heart: I will find her and ask her clearly.

That voice disappeared.

Song Zhi waved his hand in front of Song Ci: "Little Ci'er, don't hesitate to go to the city lord's mansion. The new city lord has a bad temper. The city lord's mansion is heavily guarded and I haven't been able to sneak in several times."

Song Ci smiled: "Understood."

Then I have to go see it.

In a border town, the city lord took great pains to hide people in the city lord's mansion, and guarded them tightly.

Either to imprison people or to have another conspiracy...

"Brother, let's eat."

Song Zhi was overwhelmed when he saw Wanli's younger sister pick up the talent for him personally.

Finish five bowls of rice in a row.

Song Ci looked at the eldest brother who was suspected to be reincarnated, and remained silent.

"Brother, do you know where the City Lord's Mansion is?"

The paw that was about to extend its sinful hand towards the sixth bowl stopped in the air: "Sister, I told you not to go there, it's very dangerous."

"Brother is doing it for your own good. If you want to see your mother, you are asking her if she is okay after you rescue her?"

Song Ci nodded, and smiled slightly: "I listen to big brother."

His younger sister is so well-behaved and good-looking, Song Zhi was delighted by his big brother call.

I just want to hug my dear sister and hold her high!
