Yutai Bi

291 - Out of town 2
Hei Qi came back in a short time: "Young Madam, you have changed into men's clothing, so hurry up and leave while there is no curfew tonight. It is not convenient to go in and out during the day."

Hearing what he said in a hurry, Cen Sanniang hurried back to the house and changed her clothes. She was ruthless, tied her chest tightly, hid the bank notes and scattered silver, and then picked up the bag and came out.

Out of the courtyard, Hei Qi led Cen Sanniang to pretend to be a drunken night returner, and left Dongfang with a wine gourd.

Going straight to the back wall of a courtyard where there is no one, Hei Qi said: "Young Madam, I will carry you across the wall."

He threw a rope with an iron claw in his hand, tested his strength, and then squatted down.

After picking up Cen Sanniang, Hei Qi climbed the rope and rolled over.

The bleak night shrouded a large deserted garden.Cen Sanniang looked at the pool of clear waves from a distance, and recognized it: "Is this the backyard of the Princess Mansion?"

"Yeah." Hei Qi led her to the Duke's Mansion along the path overgrown with weeds, and said in a low voice, "I went to see the second old man. Tomorrow you will hide in the third young lady's car and go out of the city. Her sister married Cui Jidong would never have imagined leaving Cui Sanlang and taking her car out of the city."

"Wei Xiaowan?" Cen Sanniang was shocked, "Will she agree?"

"The Du family is all prosperous, and every one is damaged. The third young master is still serving in the Western Army. If the young master can't take off the hat of surrendering to the enemy, the Du family's children will never be able to rise to the top. The second old master recognized the jade pendant and made up his mind It just so happened that Wei Xiaoqing asked the third young lady to go hunting outside the city tomorrow, and the second old man told the eldest lady to go to relax tomorrow, and took the opportunity to drag you out of the city. The third young lady didn't know about it. There is no way but to take risks."

"I see." Cen Sanniang thought of Mrs. Liu, feeling a lot of emotion in her heart.From the initial distaste until now Liu clearly knew and still helped him cover up, he really complied with that sentence, a friend in adversity sees the truth.

The two entered Guiyan's residence, Hei Qi found a charcoal basin from the kitchen and lifted it into the house, there was no shortage of bedding, and Cen Sanniang slept on the couch with all her clothes together.Hei Qishou rested in the living room.

The next day, Wei Xiaowan got up to make up, and changed into riding clothes on purpose.The girl tied her a belt, and couldn't help muttering: "Young Madam has lost weight. The Western Army has won a great victory, and the third master will be back soon."

Thinking of Du Sanlang, Wei Xiaowan realized that she really missed him.I never thought Du Sanlang was so kind before, but since Du Yansui's accident happened, she was glad that she didn't get married to the Duke's mansion.If you can make military achievements and get the emperor's appreciation when you come back, it shouldn't be a problem to be promoted to a higher level.My own destiny has been able to advance further.

Seeing the sun rising outside, the snow in the yard was a little warmer, and I felt better: "Maybe I can catch a fox today! I just wanted to make a shawl. It's a pity that my mother insisted on eating roast game, Uncomfortable."

The girl persuaded her: "Let's make more delicious food. Madam can keep her mouth shut. She only hopes that you will hunt more wild game. It's better than trying to convince her and not let you go out. You marry into the Du family , haven’t gone out to have fun yet.”

That's true.Thinking of Liu's stupidity, as long as there is delicious food, his heart and eyes will go into his stomach.Wei Xiaowan curled her lips, tidied up, and went out with the girl and mother-in-law.

I went to see Mrs. Liu in the main room. The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law went out together. The carriage had already unloaded the threshold and arrived at the second gate to stop.Mrs. Liu yawned and said, "I'll sleep in the car later, Xiaowan, call me when you get out of the city."

She got into the car, poked her head out again and said, "When we arrive in Leyou, remember to make a pot of tea first and bake the mustache. I can't be hungry."

"Yes." Wei Xiaowan slandered, she was really a foodie, thinking that as long as she made Mrs. Liu feel comfortable, she would definitely not care about herself, and happily took the girl into her car.

The carriage left the second room of Du's house and headed towards the east gate.When we arrived at the gate of the city, we saw a long queue in front of us.Officers and soldiers searched strictly.

At this time, a girl came over and saluted, "Is it the carriage of the third young lady of the Du family?"

Wei Xiaowan raised the curtain of the car, and recognized that it was her sister's girl: "Your sister has come already?"

The girl smiled and said: "My young lady arrived a quarter of an hour early, please go over and leave the city together."

Of course Wei Xiaowan didn't want to wait in line, so she put down the curtain and ordered the driver to drive the car over.

The two carriages converged into one place.The servants were sitting in an ox cart, and Wei Xiaoqing was a little surprised when he saw that there was also a flat-topped black-painted carriage: "Sister, who is in the carriage?"

Wei Xiaowan glanced back, smiled wryly and said, "My mother-in-law wants to eat barbecue, so she said she would go to relax. If I don't take her with me, I'm afraid I won't be allowed to go." Seeing her younger sister's expression was unhappy, she hurriedly said, "She's fine. Coax. As long as the food is prepared for her, she won't care about us hunting on horseback."

Seeing that Mrs. Liu didn't even poke her head out, Wei Xiaoqing thought that Cui Jidong saw Cen Sanniang staying up all night looking around for arrests last night, so he couldn't help thinking: "Is your mother-in-law hiding Cen Sanniang in her car and taking her out of the city?" Bar!"

"How is that possible? I got into the carriage with her this morning. She got up early, and she was still trying to catch up on sleep. Besides, my mother-in-law is the most cowardly person." Wei Xiaowan was startled, and quickly explained.Even though they are all from the Du family, the emperor has not implicated the nine clans, and Cen Sanniang is still a prisoner arrested by the Ministry of Criminal Justice. Erfang hid her, which would definitely anger the emperor and get him convicted.

"It's your mother-in-law anyway, I'll go and pay her a visit." Wei Xiaoqing didn't want to see it with his own eyes, still worried.

Wei Xiaowan had no choice but to go there with her.

As soon as he got to the side of the carriage, he saw the curtain of the carriage lifted, and Liu looked like he had just woken up: "Why did you stop? Eh, it's not out of town."

"Xiaoqing has met the eldest lady." Wei Xiaoqing stepped forward and bowed his knees to salute, and glanced into the car.Only Mrs. Liu was in the carriage, and Lao Gao's brocade quilt was piled up for her to catch up on sleep.

Mrs. Liu yawned again and said, "My family's Saburo is not here, and your family's Saburo is not here either. Single daughter-in-law, when you go out to play, an elder will watch over you, and no one else will gossip. You don't think I'm bothering you two, do you?"

"Where is it? Just wait, my sister and I will hunt more game for you to drink with today!" Wei Xiaoqing said briskly.

Mrs. Liu immediately smiled: "Okay! Hey, how long do we have to wait!"

Wei Xiaoqing smiled and said: "Madam, don't worry, I have already greeted the guards of the city gate. They helped the Ministry of Criminal Justice arrest people, my second uncle is in the Ministry of Criminal Justice..." She didn't finish her sentence, and her eyes were full of color.

"Okay, then let's go! Thinking about roasting venison, my stomach has long been tossing." Liu put down the car curtain with a half-smile.

A group of people passed the people queuing out of the city. The officers and soldiers guarding the city carefully looked at the servants sitting on the bullock cart, and carefully looked at the servants on the horses one by one. They asked the sisters Wei and Liu to open the curtains and take a look. , let it go.

After successfully leaving the city and heading towards Leyouyuan, Mrs. Liu suddenly yelled, "Oh, my stomach hurts! Stop!"

After stopping the car, seeing the sisters Wei's poking their heads out of the car, Liu waved her hands vigorously: "You two go first, it's important to hunt wild game, I'll be there in a while."

Sister Webster wished she was not there.Wei Xiaowan ordered her servants to draw down the curtains for Mrs. Liu to pay her respects, and then drove away with Wei Xiaoqing.

Cloth curtains surrounded the carriage.Only then did Liu walked to the carriage and shouted softly: "They have gone far away."

Cen Sanniang lifted the brocade quilt piled up on her body, got out of the car, and held Liu's hand, her eyes turned red: "Thank you, auntie. I used to be small-minded and asked Mother Fang to scare you. I didn't expect you to take the risk. Risk save me."

"Hey! Don't cry!" Mrs. Liu was at a loss, and said after a while, "Auntie often eats your family's food... The old man is right, Jiulang really committed the crime of surrendering to the enemy, and my Dalang Saburo will be gone in the future Qian Cheng. You must get the Duke back in full and complete condition."

"Well, I promise." Cen Sanniang smiled through tears.

Mrs. Liu got into the car again and found a bundle, licked her lips and said, "This bag of mustache is stuffed with meat, you take it with you."

Cen Sanniang took the burden, knelt down and kowtowed to Mrs. Liu: "Auntie, I will thank you when I come back after I find the Duke."

She got out of the curtain, and a servant arranged by the second old master had already brought a horse. Cen Sanniang got on the horse and walked along the official road.

Seeing her walking away, Liu ordered the curtains to be removed, got back into the car and drove towards Leyouyuan.

When we got there, the tent was already up.The Weiss sisters left the cook to bake the pancakes and make tea, and went hunting by themselves.Mrs. Liu sat in the comfortable tent, drinking hot tea and eating cakes, feeling very comfortable.

Before she could finish a cup of tea, she saw several horses galloping towards her.Cui Jidong led the people to rush over.She was so frightened that Liu almost dropped the teacup in her hand.

Cui Jidong didn't sleep all night, and he closed his eyes at dawn, and received news that the Weiss sisters went out to hunt today.He wondered, would Cen Sanniang leave the city in the crowd of the second bedroom of the Du family?Feeling really uneasy, he chased after him with a few followers.

He strode to the front of the tent and saluted Mrs. Liu according to the etiquette. Seeing Mrs. Liu flustered, he became suspicious.Shouted loudly: "Where is Cen Sanniang!"

"Cen Sanniang..." Liu Shi was so frightened that her mind went blank, her body trembled, and her sleeve knocked over the teapot, causing her to jump up: "Ouch!"

"Ma'am, are you burning it?" Her girl was also startled, squatting in front of her and wiping the tea with her sleeve.

After being scalded by the hot tea, Mrs. Liu finally came back to her senses, pointing at Cui Jidong and yelling: "Look at you, you are a junior, how can you speak so unreasonably! I felt sorry for my daughter-in-law and allowed her to come out. Cen Sanniang can't be found in the whole city, but she is making trouble for my old lady instead. How shameless! Come, find Mrs. Sanshao and come back, and she is not allowed to associate with the Cui family again!"
