Guizhen

Chapter 222
Sun Ke and Song Chen chatted very enthusiastically.

"I didn't go out all to buy pickled melons. Just in case someone has a fortune teller, I'll let it go. I earn money to buy candy for Wo Er."

It's hard for Sun Shenji to think about him.Wo'er curled the corners of her lips and smiled at Sun Ke.Raising his eyebrows, he looked at Song Chen whose complexion changed slightly, and called out, "Your Highness?" Could it be Sun Shenji who made the medlar smell wrong?He looked down at his rice porridge.He is eating very well.

Song Chen raised his finger and made a silent gesture, "Someone is coming."

Sun Ke quickly put down the half bowl of porridge left, stood up and looked out through the dilapidated temple door.Wo'er also stood up, and a young man in front of him led the horse slowly towards the ruined temple.

Seventeen or eighteen years old, with sword eyebrows and star eyes, heroic spirit is compelling.Tall and thin but not weak.He seemed to be on his way all the time, with a hint of fatigue between his brows, his arrow sleeves rolled up to his elbows, exposing his strong forearms.Gnarled fingers gripped the reins, and the other clutched the scabbard wrapped in coarse cloth.The bare,,, exposed half of the handle is not inlaid with any gems or gold or silver, but it exudes a brilliance that makes people dare not look directly at it.

It was a knife drenched in blood.

The corners of the young man's lips were slightly curved, and there was a smile in his shining eyes.It seems that a colorful sunshine that can dispel any haze gradually came into Snail's sight.

Wo'er saw the boy's face clearly, almost wept with joy.

"Zhang, little general Zhang!"

The savior finally came!

Song Chen greeted him with a haha ​​smile, "A Mo!" He called loudly.

Zhang Tianmo also laughed, "Ah Chen." The deep voice was just right, sweet and pleasant.

Song Chen looked behind Zhang Tianmo, "Only you?"

"Let's enter the city separately. It won't be conspicuous." Zhang Tianmo tied his horse to the tree in front of the ruined temple, looked up at the ruined temple, and asked, "Are you used to living here?"

Snail lowered his head and sniffed.General Zhang is too good at hurting people.Listen, listen.What a great question.

"I'm used to it." Song Chen puffed up his chest, as if to prove to Zhang Tianmo that he could endure hardships, "This place is pretty good. At least there are roof tiles to cover your head, so you won't be cold or hungry."

Zhang Tianmo patted Song Chen on the shoulder, "I haven't seen you for a few years and I've improved."

Just... not persuading at all but boasting instead?With General Zhang's words, His Highness has to live in the ruined temple forever?

Snail's sorrow comes from it.Later, he and Sun Shenjishi went to buy pickled cucumbers and a bag of rice by the way.More than one person should prepare some rice noodles for meals.

Zhang Tianmo met Sun Ke, and Woer filled a bowl of rice porridge left in the pot.Without further ado, Zhang Tianmo drank to the top of his lungs, and wiped his mouth with the back of his hand, "I haven't had any hot water for several days."

"It's been a tiring journey." Song Chen smiled, "Let Wo'er make soup and rice at noon. It's delicious, and it's no worse than the royal chef in the palace."

Woer has mixed feelings in her heart.Is it because the soup and rice he made are so delicious, that's why His Highness doesn't want to stay in an inn or a post house?His Highness is afraid that he doesn't know that if you give some money, you can borrow someone's kitchen, and you can cook whenever you want.

Hearing this, Zhang Tianmo became interested, "Then I must try it."

He just does it.Wo'er drooped her head in resignation, and suddenly remembered that she forgot to serve fragrant tea.Get up quickly to boil water and make tea.

……

Cen Xiaochuan set up a pergola with his hands and looked at the city wall in front of him with a long sigh.I don't know why it happened to be in Suzhou by mistake.He clearly planned to go all the way north to enjoy the scenery beyond the Great Wall.

What are you doing here?

Visit Mao Yingnan?
Cen Xiaochuan found it funny.He reminded Mao Yingnan that the king of Wu was not the master of Ming Dynasty, but Tang Zhao was worse than the king of Wu.If he hadn't been desperate back then, he wouldn't have served Tang Zhao all these years.

It's like a dream.Cen Xiaochuan hesitated for a moment, then took out the Luyin and handed it to Chengmen Lang.

Cheng Menlang looked Cen Xiaochuan up and down, "Tu Erdong?"

Cen Xiaochuan hurriedly responded.

Cheng Menlang handed Lu Yin to him, "What are you doing in the city?"

"Visiting friends." Cen Xiaochuan lowered his voice, "My little Qingmei just lost her husband, I'll come..."

Cheng Menlang was afraid to stain his ears, and urged: "Go in, go in. Don't tell me the details. We don't care about other people's affairs on the kang."

Cen Xiaochuan waved his hands again and again, "We are innocent, we have never been on the kang!"

Cheng Menlang almost fainted from his anger, "Go, go."

Cen Xiaochuan smiled awkwardly, and walked forward at a leisurely pace.Cheng Menlang's murmurs came to his ears intermittently, "I'm already old... I'm still a young green plum... Is it sour..."

"Not sour." Cen Xiaochuan muttered and twisted his beard, "It's very sweet."

The city was still bustling, so Cen Xiaochuan chose an inconspicuous inn to stay.After being settled properly, she left the inn in a white dress and went out for a walk on the street.

He never came back after going beyond the Great Wall.I'm really sorry.Cen Xiaochuan felt melancholy and walked forward aimlessly.Suddenly, a familiar voice called him from behind, "Shang Heng!"

Cen Xiaochuan's back was stiff, his throat moved, and he continued to walk forward as if he hadn't heard anything.

Now he is looking for Xiao Qingmei's Tu Erdong, not Cen Xiaochuan.

"Shangheng!" Mao Zhifu poked his head out of the carriage, "Don't leave. Me! It's me!"

Mao Yingnan?Cen Xiaochuan stopped in his tracks, turned his head and followed the prestige in surprise.It really is him!
Prefect Mao grinned so happily that he could see his teeth but not his eyes.The sky really has eyes.He was still thinking about Cen Xiaochuan just now, but he met him on the street.

What a coincidence.

"Get in the car!" He waved his arms and shouted, "I'll take you to eat braised pork trotters."

Prefect Mao's smile was very sincere.It was obvious that he was very happy to see his old friend.Cen Xiaochuan walked over with his robe in hand, and the driver helped him into the carriage.As soon as he sat down opposite Magistrate Mao, Magistrate Mao couldn't wait to ask: "When did you come? Why didn't you go to the government office to find me?"

"I... just entered the city." Cen Xiao Kawabata appraised Mao Zhifu for a moment, "I look good recently."

Yeah?Mao Zhifu said with a smile: "Last night I drank a bowl of Lu Wu girl's talisman water. Not to mention, it is really good. After drinking it, I feel much more relaxed, and my mood is also..." It's still the same.

It's not that Fu Shui is bad, but that he has too many worries.

Miss Lu Wu... Cen Xiaochuan said, "I never imagined that she would give people water from the talisman."

"Something happened to me." Magistrate Mao didn't hide anything, and explained in detail how he was taken away by Miaoyuan and left alone.Cen Xiaochuan listened very seriously.

"I just went to see the prince." Mao Zhifu smiled bitterly, his eyes were sore, "To tell the truth, Shang Heng. I have nowhere to go this time. If I am not careful, I will fall to pieces."

Cen Xiaochuan widened his eyes in surprise, "Isn't it?"

"Haven't you heard? Your Majesty has sent an imperial envoy." Magistrate Mao frowned suspiciously, "Master Tang should have received the letter, right?"

"It wasn't there when I left." Cen Xiaochuan didn't want to say more, but Mao Zhifu asked, "Did Master Tang send you out to find out the news?"
