Cold Palace’s Abandoned Consort

Cai Wei whispered, "Well, is that the person who arranged the hotel for us along the way?"

"..."

I was silent for a while, then turned to look at her: "What do you think? Do you think it is him?"

"I think?" Cai Wei frowned for a moment, then shook her head: "I can't figure it out."

"Can't think of it, think about it."

Listening to what I said, Cai Wei bit her lower lip again and stood beside me. She gently twisted the wet cold towel in her hand. After a while, she felt she twisted the towel over and over again. Several times, water drops fell on the floor, and I looked up and asked, "How are you thinking?"

"I think it's possible, it's not possible," she said.

"how to say?"

"It is possible because he is rich."

"Ok."

"All the food arranged for us along the way were good food and good rooms. This cost is not small. How can ordinary people have such spare money?"

"That makes sense," I nodded. "Continue."

"It's impossible, because I don't know what his purpose is for this."

Then, she looked at me and said with a doubt: "Madam, if he is really the one who takes care of us along the way, why doesn't he show up to meet his wife? I think he's fine, laugh Hehe, like a Maitreya Buddha, is not like a gangster. "

"..."

"What is the purpose of his doing this? Madam know?"

I didn't hesitate to say anything to her, but for a moment, I said, "You're right, there is no place for him."

"So what the hell--"

"Whether it is him or not, it depends on where we go next."

"..."

As I said, I slowly got up and walked to the door, opened the cover of the concealed room, and looked at the brightly lit lobby below. Boss Wang was still sitting there, and the food and drinks on the table never moved. A chopstick is like thinking something.

And my mood became heavier with the night outside.

The next morning, Chen Shi.

After Lao Zhong got up early in the morning, he went to the backyard to prepare his carriage. Cai Wei and I finished grooming early and came downstairs. I saw the doorway, and Wang's carriage was waiting there. He was sitting in the lobby. At a table, he was drinking soy milk and eating oil cakes. When he saw us going downstairs, he waved and smiled, "Mrs., morning."

"Boss Wang is early."

I walked with Cai Wei, only to see that there was still porridge and vegetables on the table, and I hadn't touched it. I saw that it was prepared for us. Boss Wang said with a smile: "Here, I don't know the taste of my wife. I just let the second person prepare some. Madam will use some."

I didn't treat him politely either. I sat down like a gentleman and ate a bowl of porridge.

Then, our carriage came over.

The horse rested all day. At this time, the spirit was shaking, and his head was constantly shaking, and the oily mane was flying in the morning mist, showing a special spirit. Boss Wang came to our carriage, looked at the old clock that rushed, and looked inside the carriage, and turned back to me and said, "Mrs, why don't you find a comfortable carriage. The road is bumpy, and my wife is It ’s expensive, how can you bear it? ”

I laughed: "Where is there such a delicate? Besides, Cai Wei cleaned it up very well, and it was not very bumpy."

Boss Wang still shook his head: "Or else, Madam?

I quickly shook my head: "No, no."

"But this--"

"Mr. Wang must not be polite. If I really suffer, I will naturally tell you."

He seemed a bit reassured, but seeing that I insisted on it, it was not good to say anything. I just stepped aside and watched Cai Wei helped me to get into the carriage, and then told the old clock to let him drive on the road. Calm down, don't jog me, just walk away. When I entered the compartment, I immediately moved to the window, raised the curtains and looked out.

There was no one following him.

And I clearly remember that there was a man who stopped behind the carriage at the door last night.

Cai Wei slowly moved to my side, followed my gaze to boss Wang's carriage, and whispered, "Madam, what are you looking at?"

I didn't speak, I just glanced back at the hotel again, and there was no look like anyone was going out.

I slowly lowered the curtains: "Nothing."

Turning my head and seeing Cai Wei still blinking at me with big eyes, I smiled slightly: "Let's go."

Along the way with Boss Wang, the journey was not fast or slow, but it seems to have returned to the previous situation.

Every time he arrived at the station, he must tell the shop Xiao Er to prepare the dishes and the room for us. He is indeed a man who has been a big boss for many years. More and more prosperous, he does not know how many trips he has traveled from north to south, he is very familiar with this road, it is indeed more convenient for him to arrange for us.

Three days later, we arrived in Baoding.

As soon as Baoding passed, it had already entered the scope of Beijing. This section of the official road was filled with people, cars and goods, goods and goods, and it was very lively, but walking and the carriage stopped.

Cai Wei asked across the curtain, "Old bell, what's wrong?"

The old bell said outside: "Front, Boss Wang has stopped their car. Everyone has stopped."

It all stopped?

When I was in doubt, I moved to the window and raised the curtains to look out. Sure enough, on the wide road, the carriage and the merchants stopped and formed a long line.

How is this going?

I frowned slightly and looked out for a while. At this time, Boss Wang also got out of his carriage. I wonder if it was because he was bored in the carriage for too long. Pa Zi kept wiping, taking a few steps forward, not knowing what he saw and what he heard. When he returned, his face was full of sadness, and he slowly walked to my carriage.

I lay on the window and gently asked, "Boss Wang, what's the front?"

"There is a checkpoint ahead, and people are passing by."

"Checkpoint? Check?" I frowned, and said, "What happened to the capital? Are you checking those Jiangyang thieves?"

"No."

"No, what's that checking?"

"These people didn't say it, but it looks like they are not looking for fugitives, they are looking for someone."

"Find someone?"

My eyebrows frowned even tighter, and after a moment of contemplation, I asked, "Boss Wang, is the local government here, or-"

"No, it's not local, it seems, it's from the Ministry of Defense."

My heart burst.

The Ministry of Defense? !!
