Thunder roared.
Ji Qingqian slowly fell asleep again in his arms.
Early the next morning, the officials all got up. They had to pass through a town today. There was thunder and rain last night and nothing was done. They had to go shopping today.
When Ji Qingqian went out and saw Mo Laosan, she also wanted to take a breather and sort out her dream last night.
"Lord Mo..."
"Mrs. Jiang..."
You two looked at me, I looked at you, smiled, and then stopped.
"Is there something wrong, Mr. Mo?" Ji Qingqian forced a smile.
Mo Laosan looked at the beautiful girl in front of him, not daring to have any evil thoughts in his heart. This girl could kill someone with a flying knife. It was not that he didn't know last night that she had killed so many wolves inexplicably.
"It's okay. Thanks to Mrs. Jiang's help last night, we are going shopping today. If Madam wants to go shopping, it's okay, but don't go too far."
After saying that, he coughed unnaturally.
Hearing this, Ji Qingqian finally showed a bright smile and said, "Thank you, Lord Mo. Your sinful woman praises you for what you do and how you behave. This is a journey of three thousand miles, and you have to rely on your care and attention along the way."
Mo Laosan's face immediately tensed up and he said seriously: "As long as you don't act recklessly, I will handle the matter impartially."
Ji Qingqian admired his way of doing things. Many people knew about his strength last night, but what surprised her was that no one was surprised that Jiang Yubai was no longer in a wheelchair.
Just as he was thinking about it, Jiang Yubai walked out. He was relieved to see her return to her former tranquility. He had known her for some time, and he had never seen her lose her temper like she did last night.
"Let's go to town to buy some things."
For the first time, Mo Laosan gave Jiang Yubai a horse.
When he sat upright on the white horse, he reached out his hand, fished her out gently, and then he picked her up on the horse's back and said warmly, "Don't be afraid, I won't throw you off." The breeze blew by her ears, and Ji Qingqian couldn't help but think again. Blushed.
The distance between two people is too close.
"Who took action last night?"
She really wanted to know who sent the black shadow.
Jiang Yubai pulled the reins, and after a long time in his mind, he spit out a name: Backer King Yang Lin.
He was galloping on horseback while patiently explaining to her the origin of this person.
He was in his forties and wielded a horned dragon stick. During the founding war of the People's Republic of China, he almost defeated all the invincible opponents in the world. He even killed the former prince and subdued the enemy's general Qin Bufan. He was named the Ming Dynasty because of his unparalleled achievements. The patron king of Dashang means that Yang Lin is the patron prince of Dashang.
Yang Lin was stationed in Dengzhou. Emperor Wen respected him very much and gave him the right not to kneel when he saw the emperor. The prince would kneel when he saw him. Like the emperor, he wore a yellow robe. Every important military and national event must be discussed with Yang Lin. He and Yang Lin fought many battles together.
I just didn't expect that the old prince would be so cruel and actually wanted his life.
"A lot of his achievements are because of you, right?"
Ji Qingqian suddenly said this.
Jiang Yubai's heart twitched, he didn't nod or shake his head, he just looked ahead coldly.
She understood instantly that someone had taken the credit from him.
The horse's hooves clattered forward, and soon they arrived at the gate of the town.
This is called Shangli Town. The town is not very big, but it is not small either. It is shaped like a tic-tac-shape, with four major streets and many small alleys. People of all kinds come and go on the streets, and the stalls and hawkers selling things are also special. many.
Every day is like catching up with a big market.
There are all kinds of gadgets. There are even restaurants, gouran courtyards, etc. in the bustling part of the long street. There is even a night market in the evening, which is full of people.
She stood in the ancient market for the first time after getting off her horse. Her eyes kept glancing around, feeling that everything was interesting, and she couldn't help but smile.
"Candied haws on a stick, selling candied haws on a stick!"
"The candied haws are delicious and not expensive. They cost five cents a bunch. Girl, buy a bunch. It's not sweet and doesn't cost any money."
She just glanced at the straw strings of the ice gourd. The hawker's eyes lit up, knowing that he had met a buyer. Before she could say anything, Jiang Yubai on the side had already handed the hawker five copper coins.
"Eat it, taste it."
He smiled and handed the candied haws he just bought to Ji Qingqian's hand.
"Um!"
She hummed happily.
Not to mention taking a bite, it was sour and sweet, and the taste was indescribable.
Mo Laosan, who walked behind, spoke to Jiang Yubai again. Jiang Yubai nodded lightly and said that he would be back at the inn before a quarter of a hour at the latest. Mo Laosan patted him on the shoulder and took the other officials there. Went shopping.
"Sir, don't mind if it's a small thing."
Before Mo Laosan left, Ji Qingqian stuffed ten taels of silver into Mo Laosan's hand. Her smile was as bright as the warm sun. Mo Laosan looked at the face of the beauty in front of him and couldn't even say a word of rejection.
However, who doesn’t like silver?
There was an obvious smile on his face, and he pretended not to care and said, "Don't attract attention."
Ji Qingqian raised her head and raised a smile. Even on the road to exile, her face was still as white as snow, her almond-shaped eyes were wide open, and her whole person exuded a bright and moving aura.
Although Mo Laosan is upright, he never refuses money.
One of the officials, the youngest one named Xiao Wu, was almost stunned when he looked at Ji Qingqian's face.
After the others left, the junior official couldn't help but sigh: "Mrs. Jiang is so beautiful, even more beautiful than the most beautiful woman I have ever seen."
His admiration immediately overflowed.
Dao Scar Liu glared at him unhappily, "You kid are talking nonsense, be careful I will kill you if you dare to talk nonsense again."
Xiao Wu stuck out his tongue, Scar Liu looked scary.
Mo Laosan also said to him with a cold face, don't say anything you shouldn't say in the future. He always felt that Ji Qingqian was a very human being, so he shouldn't offend him. Of course, it would be best to give him money.
After all, other prisoners, even if they squeezed out the most, could only get away with two taels of silver.
He weighed the money in his hand, which was enough to cover his three months' salary, and his mood suddenly became much better.
long street.
Ji Qingqian curiously touched around and looked around, but when she turned around, Jiang Yubai actually bought everything she had seen.
He could hardly hold the wooden hairpins, rouge gouache, cute gadgets, sesame seed cakes, etc.
"Don't buy them all, I'm just taking a look."
She lowered her head and complained sheepishly.
"Then...you don't like me giving it away?"
His eyes narrowed slightly, and a low laugh escaped from deep in his throat.
"Don't... don't, I want it all!"
She knew that Jiang Yubai could do it, but she didn't take a look casually, only when she thought it was appropriate.
Just walked to a small alley.
An accident happened.
