The dark-bellied prime minister's cute wife

Chapter 307 Looking up at the stars in the ruined temple

I don't know if it's because of the big trouble just now, the few people who left the inn went to other places, but no one dared to take them in.

Tian Lanshan and Xintao were sitting in the carriage, the wind at night was a bit bitingly cold, Huang Changqing also had a dark face, as if he felt that it was his fault that he let the two of them suffer from the cold wind.

"Your Highness... I'll ask." After the carriage stopped at the entrance of an inn, Huang Changqing got out of the carriage.

Looking at the brightly lit inn, there was a glimmer of hope in my heart at this moment, it was already very far away from that inn, and I should be able to rest for a night, so I walked over and knocked on the door lightly.

A shop waiter opened the door a little and looked at him before asking, "Guest officer? Alone?"

Huang Changqing didn't talk to him too much, raised his brows and asked: "Do you have three upper rooms here?" It's Haishi now, if this inn can't take a rest, it really can only spend the night elsewhere .

three people?Hearing this, Xiao Er glanced at the carriage not far away, a flash of fear suddenly flashed in his eyes and said quickly: "The guest room is full." After speaking, he quickly closed the door with a "snap".

Seeing the same ending again, Huang Changqing sighed. Could it be that they underestimated Zhou Kang's power before?It made these people dare not speak out, or even accept them, just because they didn't want the Zhou family to think that they were against them.

Tian Lanshan rubbed her numb hands in the carriage. Although it was spring, the cold wind at night was still biting.Seeing her doing this, Xin Tao hurriedly took out a cloak and put her hands inside it: "Your Highness... I can only make do with this to keep warm, and Guard Huang will be able to find a place to rest after a while." Looking forward with a pair of eyes, he saw Huang Changqing walking over with a bad face. Needless to say, the inn must have known about their group's provocation of Zhou Kang.

Huang Changqing walked over, opened the curtain of the car, and then frowned and said, "Your Highness...it seems that we have to spend the night elsewhere. It's getting late enough now. These people are afraid that the Zhou family will not accept us."

Tian Yushan is not a particularly stern person, and he also knows the difficulties of these people, so he nodded quickly: "Let's see if there is a place to rest nearby. Let's make it for the night first."

Seeing what she said, Huang Changqing got into the carriage and started driving.

The sound of the carriage was extremely ear-piercing on the deserted street at night. Seeing the person leave, the waiter just now whispered to the shopkeeper, "The person has left."

The shopkeeper sighed, feeling a little indescribable, because the Zhou family’s business in Jiangzhou is not easy to do, and it’s finally here. Zhou Kang has festivals.

After walking for a long time, I don't know where I went. At this moment, the oil lamps that were already on were all extinguished. Huang Changqing sighed in his heart. It seems that Zhou's family really changed people's faces.It would be a disaster for such an official to stay in Jiangzhou.

After circling around the city, Xu felt that there was no place to rest here, so he thought about going out of the city to rest outside for the night, when he was walking, he suddenly found that there seemed to be a ruined temple in front of him.So he stopped the carriage and said to the people in the car: "Your Highness... there seems to be a broken temple there. Let's make do there tonight." His expression was a little guilty, because it was caused by himself.

But Lan Shan didn't say anything that day, she just said: "The ruined temple is not bad, it can still shelter from the wind and rain, so let's drive the carriage there."

Huang Changqing drove over in the carriage, and gradually the carriage stopped, and Tian Lanshan walked down with the support of Xintao.

Perhaps it was because no one came to disturb it for too long, so the ruined temple looked very gloomy, and there were even spider webs left, and rats could occasionally be heard squeaking.

Seeing this scene, Xintao frowned, and glanced at Huang Changqing slightly complaining, as if she felt aggrieved by letting Tian Lanshan rest here.

Seeing her complaining eyes, Huang Changqing rubbed his nose in embarrassment and said, "Your Highness... why don't we go out of the city and rest in the forest." Although there is no shelter from the wind and rain, at least it is cleaner than here.

Tian Lanshan glanced at him and waved his hands: "It's getting late, just rest here for the night, you will get tired from running."

Seeing that she was not going to leave, Huang Changqing took the dilapidated door from the side, and then found some straw in the temple to make a fire.

When the fire was rising, Tian Lanshan took out her hands that were a little red from the cold and roasted it beside the fire. The steaming fire quickly burned her little face red. It looks really cute.

Xintao took out the dry food and water bags prepared for them by the innkeeper just now.

Opening one of the greased papers, I found several meat buns and some sliced ​​braised beef wrapped in it. I felt that they were very thoughtful.

Seeing the steamed stuffed bun and beef, Tian Lanshan suddenly smiled: "I never imagined that we could still eat such good things." I don't blame myself, isn't ordinary dry food included in pancakes that can be carried with you?Those two actually prepared such delicacies for them.

Huang Changqing glanced at the things in the oil paper, then suddenly remembered something and said: "Maybe they have been bullied by Zhou's family for a long time, so they are very grateful to see us draw swords to help, it is difficult to explain clearly, so we have to do this Thank you instead."

Tian Lanshan took out one of the meat buns, put it in his mouth and ate it with big mouthfuls. He said that he was very hungry after running around for so long, so he swallowed the food in his mouth and said, "So we must do it for you. If the people get rid of the harm, then Zhou's family must punish severely, so that the people here can live a good life again."

Seeing that she could use idioms, and using them just right, Huang Changqing raised his eyebrows and glanced at her. His Highness is becoming more and more learned.

Seeing Tian Lanshan pick up the cold meat buns and gnaw on them, Xintao was worried that she would spoil her stomach, so she roasted the remaining three meat buns, and handed one of these to Huang Changqing. Only then said: "However, today we figured out one thing. The Zhou family had already made the people complain a lot in Jiangzhou, but everyone has always been concerned about their official status so they dare not speak out. This can at least prove that the emperor let His Highness It is necessary to come here."

Huang Changqing nodded when he heard this, glanced at Tian Lanshan and continued: "Your Highness... I don't know how to thank you after this matter is over." This is a good way to win the hearts of the people, Your Majesty It was really well-intentioned.

Thinking of looking at Tian Lanshan here, he had some thoughts in his heart. The emperor has been entrusting these things to His Highness for a while, what is the purpose behind this?I don't think it's because there are no ministers in the DPRK who can handle affairs, not to mention that Su Yunbo is a powerful person, isn't Duan Fuji, whom His Highness invited back a few days ago, also a powerful person?After thinking for a long time, he couldn't figure out why, so he simply withdrew his gaze and continued to focus on eating the meat bun in his hand.

After eating and drinking, the three of them couldn't sleep for a while.

Seeing that the master didn't feel sleepy, the two of them naturally didn't dare to sleep, so they chatted together.

Tian Lanshan glanced at the direction of the top of the head, there was a broken eaves, a small hole was exposed, just enough to see some stars at night, sighed and said: "Long time no see, I miss senior brother and the others gone."

Huang Changqing glanced at her before suggesting: "Your Highness, we can't sleep, why not watch the stars outside."

The three of them nodded and went out. Huang Changqing took a piece of burning wood in his hand and went out to continue lighting a fire.

After being warmed up, Tian Lanshan said: "What should we do next?" A pair of eyes just stared at Huang Changqing in a daze.

...Being taken aback by her sudden question, Huang Changqing finally said: "Now we know that Zhou Kang Qiang robbed women and oppressed the common people. The next thing we should do is to find witnesses." This is the most difficult part, because those people dare not speak out because they are afraid of the Zhou family's revenge. They dare not say a bad word about the Zhou family on weekdays, let alone let them go to court to testify.

Seemingly aware of this, Tian Lanshan froze, and muttered, "How is that possible? You don't even look at those people. Seeing the Zhou family is like a mouse seeing a cat, let alone letting the people see it." They testified."

Huang Changqing nodded and spread his hands: "So this method is useless. Now our only way is to sneak into Zhou's house. If we can find some definite evidence about them, we can deal with them severely."

Hearing this, Tian Lanshan also nodded, she also thought the same way before leaving the capital, and the character had already been determined by herself, the concubine Hua is very charming when she pretends to be a woman, so he naturally let him do this kind of thing.

Knowing what was in her mind, Huang Changqing didn't shirk it. Besides, he didn't feel relieved to let the two of them go, but he was worried that the two of them would be revenged by Zhou Kang. At that time, wouldn't it be that he didn't protect them by his side? Great danger?
Frowning: "It's a simple matter, but if you two are found by that Zhou Kang, you will definitely be dealt with severely." I can see that Zhou Kang is not a person who will not revenge.He suffered a loss outside the city before, and this afternoon he brought everyone to seek revenge.

When Xintao heard this, she also glanced worriedly at Tian Lanshan, what she said was right, what would happen if His Highness was in danger without Huang Shiwei?Sighing in my heart, it would be great if Xiangye was here, and His Highness can turn danger into good fortune every time by his side.

Tian Lanshan didn't know what was going on in Xintao's mind, when she heard this, she just felt that she had hurt others again, so she just looked down at her embroidered shoes without saying a word.
