Painting Tang Jiao

Chapter 62 City Gate Search
Early in the morning, Miss Si brought Shunqiao to Qinghuan's place.

"Miss Si, please sit down, Miss is still not well?" Mancao opened the door to welcome Miss Si.

The fourth girl smiled slightly: "I got up early?"

I'm afraid he didn't sleep all night, Mancao murmured to himself.

"Not busy, I don't drink tea." Seeing that Mancao was about to serve tea, the fourth girl shouted.

Hearing this, Mancao paused, then retracted her hand naturally, and stood aside again.

Not long after, Qing Huan came out.

"Sister looks pretty good, did you sleep well last night?" Miss Si saw Qing Huan coming out and got up and said with a smile.

"I fell asleep when I was a little tired." Qing Huan said lightly.

The fourth girl knew that the seventh sister must still be angry about what happened yesterday, but she should be even more angry, as she was being played by others.However, the fourth girl was unwilling to say these words in front of so many people.

Seeing Miss Si winking at her, Qing Huan glanced at Mancao and the other two.

Mancao said with a smile: "Girl, let's have breakfast in the young master's room. Linglu and I will get it."

Qing Huan nodded.

"The two servant girls next to Seventh Sister are very clever." Fourth Miss said, looking at their backs.

Qing Huan pursed her lips and smiled, but did not answer her words.

The fourth girl felt that the blame was meaningless, so she had to say directly: "What happened last night was that I was sorry for the seventh sister. I really can't say the specific reason. This box should be my sister's apology. It's just those people, I They will definitely not let them go." The fourth girl said bitterly.

Qing Huan was silent for a long time before putting away the box, but her face was very reluctant, obviously very dissatisfied with the fourth girl's decision, but she had no choice but to accept it.

Qing Huan's performance was completely in the eyes of Fourth Miss, so she completely let go of her doubts about Seventh Younger Sister.

After the fourth girl asked Shunqiao to put down the box, she left in a hurry.

"Miss Si is so generous." Mancao said when she saw the opened box.

Qing Huan sneered: "Second house is full of money." She raised her hand and closed the box, but she didn't have the slightest interest in the ten ingots of silver inside, at least not for now.

"Have you found out clearly?" Qing Huan asked.

"Well, a servant woman was locked up, and I heard that the servant next to the second master is watching over it."

"That's the best." Qing Huan smiled suddenly.

The funeral ceremony was very simple. When Qing Huan and his party left, the family of Cheng Mansion next door had already gone to the building.After Qing Huan heard Ling Lu's report, she just breathed a sigh of relief.

The two servants and the servants were left to continue watching the funeral ceremony. The funeral ceremony also had to choose a date. Although it was simple, it would last for three consecutive days.The fourth girl can't wait, tomorrow is the day when the second girl leaves the cabinet, and she has to go back tonight.Simply, everything that Qing Huan was supposed to do had already been done, besides, since she had promised Jun'er, she would take Liu Rong's man back.One less day of stay means less danger.

Who knows if someone will suddenly search Ziyang Temple

It's better to enter the city earlier and let him go.

With four fewer people on hand, the two carriages in Qing Huan's yard are somewhat empty.Seeing this, Linglu went to the carriage behind with Mancao and the others.

Aunt Liu originally planned to sit in the back, but Qing Huan refused.Not counting Liu Rong's own carriage, that is, two siblings plus Aunt Liu, it's not too many people.On the contrary, counting the size, Bi Mancao's carriage was a bit empty.Of course, the actual situation is still crowded together.

Liu Rong was in a different situation than that day, but he looked better today, he was awake all the time, wearing clothes he found somewhere, leaning against the carriage without saying a word.

The carriage creaked.

Yan Jun fell into Aunt Liu's arms in a daze because of her drowsiness.

Qing Huan pursed her lips, feeling a little uneasy.

I don't know how long the carriage had been driving, but it stopped suddenly.

"Miss, there are soldiers at the gate of this city, it seems that they are searching?" the servant said through the curtain.

What are you going to do?Qing Huan grabbed Liu Rong's hand, stared at it fiercely, and then said to the people outside the curtain door: "Have you checked all the carriages going back to the city today, including the female relatives?"

"Girl, there are very few female family members entering or leaving the city gate these days."

Qing Huan understood, that is to say, in the current team, if it is said that the status is distinguished, only her and her group are the only ones.

"Don't move around? No matter how good your martial arts are? With your current body and the coachman in front of you, do you think you can keep people from noticing?"

No, on the contrary, it will cause more riots, and ultimately lead to greater impact.

At this moment, Qing Huan has already prepared the worst plan in her heart.
The carriage was driving slowly, and Qing Huan secretly calculated that the carriage in front belonged to the fourth sister's carriage. If it was necessary to check, the fourth sister must have been very considerate and generous at the side, but today's situation is different.In the situation where there is a girl from the Yan family who is about to leave the court, and she is marrying an eldest son.The fourth girl will evade, and will not let others get her way easily. Although she can hide her face, if she is searched, it is a search, and she is still a small soldier who is only a subordinate among the children of a rich family.The final result is hard to guess, maybe there is still no way, but there will probably be an obstacle.

Sure enough, after a while, they heard the sound of arguing in front of them.

"This is my sister's carriage, how can I let you search it casually. We are from the Yan family." The second master's voice was high-pitched and passionate, which showed that he was really angry that the officers and soldiers wanted to search his sister.

What a good brother, what a good life is enviable.

Qing Huan's fingernails scratched hard on the carriage, and her ten fingers connected to her heart, not to mention the pain that her nails felt as if they were about to be peeled off.Suddenly a hand brushed the back of his hand inadvertently.

Qing Huan turned her head and saw that Liu Rong was staring at Jun'er intently with her head turned, as if her face could see flowers.Suddenly Qing Huan laughed out loud.

With a straight face, Liu Rong turned around in puzzlement.

Qing Huan had already lowered her head at this time, but she couldn't help laughing in her heart.Just now he turned his head away, just showing those ears.This man is a fun guy, with an unrecognizable expression on his face, but his ears are red.

This little episode quickly and effectively made Qing Huan forget what happened just now.

There was another commotion ahead, but the fourth girl's helpless voice was vaguely heard.When Qing Huan was thinking about it, Mancao deliberately lowered her voice from outside the carriage: "Girl, Fourth Miss got off the carriage."

At this time, Mancao reminded herself to prepare early. Obviously, she also knew the situation and was worried, so she got out of the carriage.

The carriage moved again, but stopped immediately after a while.

"Our girl is young, and the aunt she was taking care of was bitten by a snake. Brother soldier, what do you think about this...?" Mancao's voice was clear and transparent.

"We are also on a mission." The soldiers standing outside refused, if today's buddies turned a blind eye to it, that's all.Compared with those official young masters and ladies, these people like myself are not as important as a little finger, but there are important people watching behind them.

Mancao looked embarrassed, thought for a while, approached the carriage and lowered his voice, "Miss, is fourth master awake?"

"Well, get up."

After hearing this, Mancao said helplessly to the soldiers: "Please hurry up, our master and aunt have a fever?"

"Is your master sick?"

"My lord?"

"My son..."

He Jitong, who was originally unwilling to come out, heard Mancao's words, and appeared in front of everyone as soon as he turned his footsteps.Now that his identities have been exposed, He Jitong simply walked to the side of the carriage and said, "Why are you newcomers these days?"

He looked sharply at the grass.

Mancao was not in a hurry, blessed her body, and explained the reason neatly: "...the old lady in the mansion is worried, worried that the young lady and the young master are young, so she specially asked the second master and fourth young lady to come out together. "

"Your Majesty." The fourth girl, who had already entered the city gate and got back into the carriage, hurried over again when she heard the servant's report.

"Mmm..." He Jitong replied, not intending to talk to the fourth girl at all.

"Seventh Younger Sister, this is Uncle Ruyang's son. Can you come out now?" Fourth Miss shouted loudly.

When the people in the carriage and the vines standing outside the carriage heard the fourth girl's shout, a trace of boredom flashed across their faces.If the fourth girl hadn't yelled loudly, others would at most think that the girl from Yan's mansion appeared at the gate of the city and let the soldiers check along with her.Everyone is listening to the loud yelling now.

Under such circumstances, how could Qing Huan get out of the car.

He Jitong also thought of this: "I met several times in Yan's residence, and I always thought it would be great to have a younger sister as old as a girl."

"Yes..." Qing Huan didn't know what to say and only responded in a low voice.

"Seventh Sister cannot be missed in this search. If it's convenient, can you open a corner of the curtain so we can take a look."

There was a moment of silence in the carriage.

After a while, another female voice was heard: "Mancao, it's fine."

Mancao blessed He Jitong's body, and carefully opened half of the bottom curtain. The angle was not too big or too small, but it was just right for people to see the figure of the person inside at a glance.

Aunt Liu's face was clearly visible, together with Jun'er, who was ignorant and sleeping, and another person who wore a veiled cap on her head, and her stature was obviously that of a girl of eleven or twelve years old.

The moment the boss saw the veiled cap, he suddenly understood why there was a sudden silence in the carriage just now, presumably it was to prepare for this matter.It's just that the caring people present couldn't help thinking that they were also girls from the Yan family, why the four girls got off the carriage directly, and their faces were so unobstructed.

The fourth girl's face turned red and then turned pale. Although she knew that this matter could not be blamed on Seventh Sister's head, it was completely up to her own decision, and Seventh Sister didn't know it at all, but she still couldn't help complaining.
