The group stopped in front of a guest room, and the leader said, "May I ask if Madam Chang can be here?"
"I don't know!" the boy standing outside the guest room replied immediately.
The leader, Changji, glanced at him and recognized that he was one of the young men who slipped into his husband's carriage that day. At this time, he showed the token in his hand.
The boy looked at the object in his hand, puzzled - what is it? what for?
"..." Chang Ji was heartbroken after seeing this, so he could only explain: "My husband is the servant of Wei, and we are here to invite the Chang family's wife on your orders."
Seeing that the boy still had no intention of getting out of the way, Changji frowned when the door of the guest room in front of him was opened from the inside.
A "young man" appeared in sight.
Changji recognized that this was another young man who slipped into the carriage yesterday, and asked seriously: "May I ask where Madam Chang is?"
Girl: "..."
Is it possible, right in front of him?
Seeing that the "young man" was silent, Changji tried his best to be patient: "Please tell me the truth. I will be grateful."
The girl looked at him: "Maybe I am."
Changji's eyes widened in surprise.
This sound...
Is she actually a lady?
He couldn't see it!
Lang Jun only said that if he found the person who slipped into the carriage that day, he could find Madam Chang, but he never told him that Madam Chang was one of those young men!
How could a lady from a boudoir in the capital act so well pretending to be a man?
At this time, the young lady of the Chang family asked, "I wonder why Minister Wei is looking for you?"
Changji calmed down and bowed his hands: "My husband would like to ask Mrs. Chang to move to another courtyard to protect her temporarily to ensure that Mrs. Chang is safe and sound. After the affairs in Hezhou are completed, she can leave in a few days. By then, we will definitely ensure that Mrs. Chang is safe. Send him home."
The girl nodded, put her feet in front, and walked downstairs. Changji reacted by just leaving so quickly, and then he hurriedly led others to follow.
"Mr. Lang, I'm really sorry..." The waiter who had been paying attention to the movement downstairs came forward and apologized with a full face.
If it were anyone else, he would have dared to stop them, but these people turned out to be the subordinates of Wei Shilang, the capital's chief minister. He was afraid that the young man upstairs might be involved in the current case in the city, so he truthfully told them where they were.
Fortunately, looking at this posture, the two sides are friends rather than enemies.
The girl said softly "No problem" and walked out of the inn.
There were noisy people, a few willow trees on the street had their young branches sprouting, and the sunlight was as bright as gold.
The girl raised her head and looked at the clear blue sky.
At that time, in addition to the nickname A Li, she also named the baby girl "Sui Ning".
But there is always debate over whose last name should be taken.
Now it seems that he has taken the surname of Sha Dachang.
Chang Sui Ning.
Good luck and peace every year, which is a good meaning.
It's just that she didn't see with her own eyes how little Suining grew up, but as everyone wished, little Suining disappeared in the spring of that year.
But something went wrong, and from then on, she was always peaceful.
"Ms. Chang——" Changji followed out and raised his hand to signal the carriage prepared beside him.
Chang Suining nodded and got into the carriage.
The boy held the hastily packed bundle in his arms, followed the driver, and sat on the shaft seat.
The wheels were rolling, Chang Sui Ning lifted up a corner of the curtain in the car and looked at the scene on the street.
The governor's office was suddenly raided by imperial envoys, but the people in the city were frightened but not chaotic, and there was no chaos in the streets. It can be seen that Wei Shuyi was not only quick in his work, but also cautious and thorough.
And to find her so quickly——
In this regard, he is not like his father Wei Qin or his mother-in-law Shaoyi.
Thinking of his old friends and looking at his hometown, Chang Suining's eyes felt a little distant.
Want to go back to the capital?
There is no doubt about it.
There is her home, there are her old friends there, and there are past events that she has been unable to let go of.
In addition, she wanted to know the inside story of A Li who fell into the water on the night of Shangyuan Festival in the capital before he was abducted - she couldn't let A Li go away without knowing anything.
…
The carriage stopped in front of a courtyard in the city.
Wei Shuyi came here incognito, so he temporarily stayed in a separate courtyard here.
"Ms. Chang, please stay here in peace. If you need anything, just tell the servants."
"In addition, my lord has said that Mrs. Chang's appearance in Hezhou will not be leaked at all. Please rest assured, Mrs. Chang."
Changji explained one by one.
"Thank you." Chang Sui Ning stopped in front of the small courtyard where he was placed, and asked Chang Ji: "I just don't know why Mr. Wei knows that I am here, and why he helps me?"
Hearing this, Chang Ji's face was inexplicably wary, and he hurriedly explained: "My lord was entrusted by Shi Gongtai Yu Chang to keep an eye out for Mrs. Chang in Hezhou City."
Thinking of the young ladies in the capital who were doing all kinds of tricks to get close to their husbands, he immediately said: "My master is busy with official business in the city and is not here at the moment. And since we are entrusted by others, there is no need to say thank you."
But he saw that the girl was slightly startled, her focus was not on her husband: "Sigongtai Yu Changshi - Yu Zeng?"
Changji's brows jumped.
How dare this little lady dare to call servant Yu Chang by his first name?
But seeing that she was waiting for him to answer, he nodded: "Exactly."
Chang Sui Ning was slightly surprised.
Now that A Zeng has become successful, he has become a regular servant and is in charge of the palace.
She wanted to ask who was sitting on the Dasheng dragon chair now, but she didn't want to be treated as a fool by the not-so-smart Wei family member in front of her, so she didn't rush to ask.
Seeing that she didn't ask any other questions, Changji secretly relaxed a little, handed over his hands and left.
The maid in the courtyard who was ordered to take care of Chang Sui Ning was very considerate: "...in the afternoon, a tailor will come to measure the lady's clothes. I wonder what colors and patterns the lady likes on weekdays?"
"No need to bother." Chang Sui Ning said: "Men's robes are more convenient when going out."
The servant woman was a little surprised, but she didn't interfere much. She just came down and asked, "Is there anything I should pay special attention to when drinking and drinking daily?"
This brings us to the real question.
Chang Suining said seriously: "Just eat more meat at each meal and don't make it too fatty."
Eat more meat to be strong - this is the eating habit that has been engraved in her bones for many years.
The maid smiled and nodded, then stepped back to make arrangements.
"The matter in Zhoujiacun has been resolved. I need to return to the capital." Chang Suining took out a money bag, put it on the table, and said to the boy standing beside him: "You can take the money."
The boy reacted for a while and understood what she meant, but then he knelt down towards her with a "plop" and said somewhat incoherently: "I...I have no parents and nowhere to go. Although I can only cook, but from now on I will be a good man." I will learn whatever you want me to learn, and I am willing to do any job. I just ask you, husband, not to drive me away!"
Looking at the little boy who seemed to regard her as a life-saving straw, Chang Suining asked: "Do you want to follow me for a long time?"
"Yes! It was Lang Jun who saved me, I -"
Chang Suining interrupted his excited words and said bluntly: "But I don't have enough money for the time being, so I can give you monthly money."
Although I have figured out my current identity, after all, I have just arrived and there are many things that I cannot accept.
But I heard the boy say in surprise: "... Mr. Lang has kindly given me an errand to do, why do you still want to give me money?!"
Chang Suining: "..."
I'm afraid this is not testing her moral bottom line...
Facing the boy's too clear eyes, she was speechless for a moment and then said: "Don't go out and say this."
Otherwise, he will be caught like a donkey and tortured for the rest of his life.
The boy nodded half-knowingly.
"Okay, get up. After lunch, follow me out." Chang Sui Ning said.
The boy was overjoyed and quickly agreed.
…
In the afternoon, Chang Suining left the courtyard and sat down in a busy teahouse on the street.
"Quickly give way!"
Following a loud shout, the sound of horse hooves was heard, and a group of people galloped across the street, and the people gave way.
Chang Suining, who was sitting by the window, looked at the soldiers and horses and the military flag that were quickly disappearing. He was a little stunned and subconsciously said: "Is that... Xuance Army?"
"Mr. Lang also knows about Xuance Jun?" the waiter who was refilling her tea asked.
Chang Suining nodded lightly: "I know."
More than knowing.
