Chapter 356: Meng Bu Ren's Peach Blossom
"hurry up…"
"Be quick!"
Qi Sheng, as the steward of the Qi residence, was watching the guards loading all the luggage that had been prepared long ago onto the carriage.
"Master Qi!"
The governor of Peizhou got off the carriage in such a hurry that he almost fell down.
There were beads of sweat on his forehead, obviously he rushed over after hearing the news.
"Why...why are you leaving?" The governor's tone was full of reluctance.
Looking at this, if you don't know, you might think his father passed away.
Jiang An raised his eyebrows in surprise. Are you so reluctant to leave?
"Don't worry, Governor..."
Qi Shanyuan changed into a plain robe and went forward to talk to the governor.
"Qi missed the north, but I went back to live there. All the Qi family properties in Peizhou are still there."
"Oh...haha...I see."
"Then I am relieved... Isn't it!"
The governor accidentally spoke out the truth.
Peizhou has had the Qi family's business in recent years, and as the governor, he has also gained a lot of benefits from it.
He glanced at Qi Shanyuan's calm expression as if he didn't hear anything, and his smile was even a little flattering.
The governor quickly excused himself: "What I meant is..."
"Shan Yuan knows..."
Young Master Qi took over his excuse and said it more nicely, which saved the official's face.
"Your Excellency means that you hope Shanyuan has a safe journey."
"After all, I have much business to do with my Lord."
"Ahahaha...right, that's right! That's exactly what I meant!"
Look at this mouth, this smooth-talking appearance, it would be a shame if he didn't go into government to work!
"Are you done yet?"
In the carriage, Jiang An stuck his head out and glared at the Peizhou governor who was in the way.
so annoying!
“Okay, okay…” The governor immediately backed down.
"Then I respectfully send you off, young lady... Have a safe journey!"
From the small window, a fat paw wrapped in gauze waved at him, as a greeting.
The road was quiet in the previous month...
It was so calm that Jiang An doubted the truthfulness of what Wen Zeyu said several times.
Of course, she also kept in touch with the team that was looking for the body.
In the azure sky, the hawk is circling...
When the whistle sounded, it chirped in response and swooped down towards the little girl's outstretched hand.
With its appearance, the birds in the nearby woods were startled and flew away.
Huo Changming, who had been waiting on horseback, held a slingshot and squinted one eye to aim.
"One... two..."
There were quite a lot of meat dishes along the way!
Of course, their mouths only have the smell of birds~
Jiang An opened the small cloth bag on Goshawk's back, and inside was a piece of paper...
Qi Shanyuan was feeding the eagle with raw meat using wooden chopsticks when he saw the little girl crumpled up the note and threw it out of the car.
"Not found yet?"
"Um…"
Jiang An was in a daze, poking the goshawk's head with his fingertips out of boredom.
"The secret guards reported back that they searched five miles downstream and only found a piece of clothing hanging on a dead branch beside the river..."
Qi Shanyuan: "It must have been hooked up when it was washed down by the water."
"Including this letter, the secret guards have searched for a full twenty miles, and have also searched nearby houses and mountains."
"Perhaps the body has been eaten by wild dogs, or perhaps it has been buried at the bottom of the river by mud and sand, An An..."
"I know…"
The little girl leaned her head against Qi Shanyuan, half-closing her eyes, as if she wanted to rest.
These secret guards have other things to do, and they can't just waste a day without finding this person.
"I hope he's dead..."
Or, I hope they don't see each other again.
"Yuanyuan~"
Then Young Master Qi, who was feeding the eagle, responded gently, "What's wrong?"
I only heard the little girl say: "Have you always felt that there was something wrong with Wen Zeyu..."
She was like a big fool and had no idea.
"I do think there was something wrong with him at the time."
Qi Shanyuan put down the wooden chopsticks in front of the hawk's small green bean eyes and covered Jiang An with a thin blanket.
"But that's just intuition and guesswork..."
"Would our An An kill someone based on guesswork and baseless intuition?"
"You're already great."
The young man's voice was gentle, and his hands were patting the thin blanket lightly, as if he was trying to coax her to sleep.
"We will avenge the soldiers An An. Chang Ming told me how decisive and heroic you were that day..."
Unfortunately, I didn’t see it.
After hearing his muttering, the little girl, who had not had a good rest for many days, finally closed her eyes.
The snoring gradually became louder, and even though Qi Shanyuan's arms were numb, he did not dare to change his position for fear of waking her up.
Through the small window, Li Xingsang saw the peaceful sleeping face of the little girl, and he also told the guards driving the carriage to slow down and be more steady.
Eh?
The goshawk standing on the shelf tilted its head, picked up a wooden chopstick with its beak, and was about to flap its wings to attract attention.
Are you going to feed it or not?
I’m not full yet!
"Shh..."
The young man poked the plump goshawk with his fingertips and said seriously, "Speak softly, don't wake her up."
After saying this, he couldn't help but laugh.
It must be because he has been with the little girl for a long time that he can actually talk to an eagle so seriously.
Goshawk said: I don’t understand~
You don't want to feed me, right? Then I can help myself!
Walking all the way from Nandi to Qicheng, Chongzhou is right in front of us...
Ahead was the city gate of Qicheng. Meng Buhen led the convoy to rest at a tea stall, preparing to pack their luggage before entering the city.
"In seven days, we will reach the border of the North..."
Meng couldn't bear to take off the sunshade and took a sip of water.
The flowing water flows down the jaw to the neck, flows through the rolling Adam's apple, and finally penetrates deep into the lapels, which looks full of wildness and handsomeness no matter how you look at it.
It's just a pity that they are all grown men and no one will appreciate it.
"Son..."
It turned out to be a girl from another caravan walking over.
She walked lightly and called softly, her face burning with shyness, a good color...
“Hey…eh!”
A group of rough men, you push me, I push you, staring with interest, ready to watch their general's excitement~
Even the little girl secretly covered her mouth and grinned.
Meng Bu Ren: "…Miss, is there something wrong?"
He put down the water bag and asked in a serious and cautious manner.
"嘁~"
No one knew who made the sound in the team, but it expressed everyone's inner thoughts.
They should know that Meng Bu Ren, who only wants to fight and fight, knows what it means to be under the moonlight and in front of flowers? !
The girl's face turned even redder, and she even lowered her head. She took out a purse from her sleeve and stuffed it into Meng Buren's arms.
She thought she was fast enough, but in fact Meng Bu Ren was even faster!
It seems that this purse cannot be given away...
"Brother Meng!"
Jiang An’s teeth were about to break!
She grabbed Meng Buren's wrist and stopped the man's actions.
Whether he likes her or not is another matter. He doesn't have anyone he likes, so why should he embarrass this beautiful sister in front of everyone?
It took her a lot of determination and courage to stand in front of Meng Bu Ren.
In the end, the purse filled with the fragrance of a daughter's home fell into Meng Bu Ren's hands.
The girl also walked away with a smile on her face.
At this point, everyone was satisfied, except Meng Buren who was still confused.
