…
In Jinxiu Palace, the fog inside the copper incense burner was thick, and the heavy aroma of benzoin filled the room.
Empress Jiahe's face was as gloomy as water, and she asked Nanny Ji uneasily, "Mother Ji, when will the person you sent come back?"
"It will take three days to go, and three days to return. It will take a total of six days." Ji Nanny said, "Yecheng is remote, and it was the place so far chosen by my mother. My mother, don't worry."
Jiahe Empress' complexions instantly became as ugly as if they had eaten a fly.
At the beginning, Yecheng was chosen because of its remoteness and remoteness, surrounded by mountains on three sides, and inconvenient to pass through. Rong Ting complained that every day should not be done there, and the land was not working. This year, the heavy snow that closed the city was God's help .
Who would have thought that she would suffer such a loss today.
She suppressed the anxiety in her heart, and asked: "The day after tomorrow, March 14th, it's time for him to arrive in Ye City."
Nanny Ji nodded, "That's right."
…
On March 13th, the branches were buzzing, and magpies jumped up and down on the newly sprung green branches.
After waking up, Jiang Rao couldn't get rid of the feeling of a sharp sword hanging from the back of her neck, and it was chilly behind her.
She couldn't fall asleep anymore, and she was not in the mood to have breakfast, so she asked the maid to go to the main courtyard to say that she didn't have breakfast this morning, and sat at the table, recalling the dream from last night.
Predicting the future from the dream did allow her to avoid many disasters, but the dream was out of her control, and sometimes she could only dream half of it, which made her a little confused.
That dream last night, that woman, how will she deal with her
The last scene she saw when she woke up was a man in Tsing Yi riding a big horse, running towards Yecheng.
Those who want to enter the city must stop at the post station next to the city gate for a while and receive an entry order before they can enter the city.
Station…
She tapped her finger on the table, and before she could think of a solution, a small group ran like a tiger and rushed in from the door, her tone was so anxious, she shouted at Jiang Rao: "Sister! Sister! Something happened. !"
The worried expression on Jiang Jinxing Baozi's face and the angry tone made Jiang Rao think that something serious had happened, but he heard him say, "Daddy wants to ground you."
Jiang Rao froze for a moment, "Foot restraint?"
Jiang Jinxing nodded heavily.
For seven-year-old Jiang Jinxing, being grounded, like the sky falling, is the worst thing that can happen.
Such a bad thing was about to happen to his elder sister, so he ran over to report to her after breakfast in a hurry, panting and sweating from exhaustion, "During the meal just now, Daddy saw that you didn't come , he was upset and became..."
He was young and not very good at describing. He flattened the corners of his mouth, drooped his cheeks, made a serious face, and moved his lips and said: "The face is like Guan Gong in the temple, so scary. I have a My friend, when I went to the temple, I was trembling with fright!"
Jiang Rao saw that his words became more and more crooked, and he made friends out of nothing, so he smeared his trembling in Guan Gong Temple on his friend, took away his chubby hand from the corner of his mouth, and hugged Xiao Tuanzi to her. legs, help him get back to the point, "Why did dad ground me?"
It's just that you don't have to eat breakfast, not just being grounded.
Jiang Jinxing tilted his head and thought for a while, "Last night, sister came back late."
He seemed to be quite experienced, "Sister, if you want to go out to play today, please know how to get out. The wall is too high, you have to ask the maid to hold it to climb over, but there is such a big hole at the foot of the wall on the west side of the backyard." .”
Jiang Jinxing raised his hand and drew a circle about the size of his chubby belly, "I can get in, so sister should be able to."
"That's a dog hole." Jiang Rao didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
When she came back last night, she didn't pay much attention to the time, but she remembered that it wasn't too late, and she was a little confused when she heard Ming Shao say from the side, "Girl, we came back at the hour of Xu."
Jiang Rao's heart skipped a beat.
A moment too late.
Punish her for this moment...
When did Dad become so strict
…
"Aren't you too harsh to restrain her just to come back a moment later every year?"
Jiang Qinshi handed Jiang Siye a cup of tea after the meal, and asked softly.
Fourth Master Jiang had a gloomy expression on his face, his voice raised a lot, and he looked a little ruthless, "If you don't be strict, she might stay in the west of the city and never come back!"
It's just that he couldn't last long with this iron face, so he soon couldn't bear it, and called a maid over, "Cook a bowl of sweet porridge and deliver it to the girl. Even if you have something on your mind, how can you do it without breakfast."
Seeing Jiang Qinshi looking at him with a slightly teasing smile, he felt that his attitude softened too quickly and was a bit embarrassing, so he called the maid again, "Stop making sweet porridge, make something she doesn't like Barley and lily porridge, it's hard for her. I can bear her."
Coughed and coughed, "Baixie and lily, just add a little, don't need too much."
The old father jumped back and forth between caring for his daughter and punishing his daughter. Jiang Qinshi smiled, "Niannian is not an ignorant child, and he will not do unruly things."
At this time, the housekeeper of the Jiang Mansion came to report—
"Master, madam, people are gradually leaving the city outside. The old slave checked, and although the officials here have not issued an unblocking order, the snow on the mountain road has melted, so it is no longer scary. Those who leave the city and enter the city are all safe and sound. .Master, should we start preparing for our return to Jinling?"
Fourth Master Jiang thought for a moment, "It's time to return to Jinling."
Jiang Qinshi was unwilling to leave so early.
There are still several months before the mother-in-law's birthday, and the little boy's family background in the west of the city has not yet been found out, and the marriage is even more unknown. She doesn't want to leave so soon.
"Fourth Master." She asked softly, "Can you stay a few more days? I'm not in a hurry to go back to Jinling."
Jiang Siye always doted on his wife, after thinking about it, he really wasn't in a hurry to go back, so he said to the old housekeeper, "Wait until the unblocking order comes out, and then we can talk about leaving."
…
And Jiang Rao was grounded pitifully.
Before she could figure out how to avoid the disaster predicted in the dream, she was caught off guard by this little disaster that flew in.
It's useless to complain, her father specially sent servants to watch outside her courtyard, and even asked someone to cook the worst barley porridge for her—
Tell her to stop even pleading for herself, and stay in the courtyard honestly, trying to figure out how to avoid the disaster in her dream.
Up to now, she still doesn't know which family Rong Ting is a child of, so she can't deal with that noble lady directly.
You can only start with the person sent by the woman.
She followed her thoughts in the morning, post station, post station.
If that person passes by the post station, she must be able to recognize him.
A flash of inspiration—
Jiang Rao knew what she was going to do.
"Ming Shao, call Jiang Ping over here!"
After Jiang Ping came, Jiang Rao handed him two pieces of paper, "Find a little more effort, and then, do as written on the paper, don't make too much noise."
Jiang Ping held up another rolled paper scroll in his hand, "What about this one?"
"Send it to the west of the city."
Jiang Rao still remembered the agreement with Rong Ting yesterday.
It's just that she was grounded today, so she couldn't find him, so she could only ask Jiang Ping to bring a letter to apologize on her behalf.
Let's go find him another day, and then, bring some gifts of apology, and apologize again sincerely.
…
After reading the paper written by Jiang Rao, Jiang Ping followed her instruction to keep quiet, burned the paper, and silently remembered the request in his heart.
He first summoned the men in his family to compete, and selected the ones with the strongest martial arts skills, and added two men who were not high in martial arts, but big in arms, round in waist, strong in stature, and strong in strength. They were used to frighten people. .
The problem of slow update of new chapters has finally been solved on the app that can change the source. Download the huanyuanapp.org source change app here, and view the latest chapters of this book on multiple sites at the same time.
This job took him half a day's work, and after finally choosing it, Jiang Ping rushed to the post station to do some work.
Finally, all the way to the east, I came to an abandoned house along the mountain in the east of Yecheng, and arranged for two people to clean it up here.
After doing this, it was already dark.
"Girl, everything you arranged on paper has been done."
Jiang Ping rushed back to Jiang Rao's place in the dark, and said in reply.
Jiang Rao signaled Ming Shao to hand Jiang Ping the reward money he had prepared earlier, but Jiang Ping knelt down with a plop, "This reward money is not worthy of a villain."
With sweat on his forehead, he pulled a roll of paper out of his sleeve, held it out in front of Jiang Rao with trembling hands, "I've been busy all day, so I forgot to deliver the letter. When I think about it, it's getting late and I can't make it in time." gone."
Jiang Rao frowned.
The letter has not been delivered.
Didn't he wait for a day
She frowned, but still put the reward money back into Jiang Ping's hands, and turned to ask Ming Shao, "Is there someone sent by Dad to watch outside the courtyard?"
Ming Shao said: "It's already night, no one is watching anymore. There are still people guarding the main entrance."
She glanced at Jiang Rao hesitantly, "The girl means..."
Jiang Rao sighed, "Try the methods that Jin Xing said."
Released his pigeons without saying hello, in case he has been waiting, what to do.
Ming Shao glanced at the sky outside, "It's almost bedtime, maybe he's already asleep."
Jiang Rao had already put on the cloak he was going to wear when going out, lit a lantern and carried it, "It's always my fault, even if he has already fallen asleep, I have to see him to be at ease."
Jiang Ping felt guilty, and said casually: "The villain also follows, go together."
Jiang Rao nodded, "Let's go, go to the backyard."
…
In the morning, before dawn, Rong Ting went to the stream to fetch water.
After so many days of taking medicine and massaging, his legs gradually gained some strength. Although he still couldn't walk without leaning on other things, it was much better than when he was so serious that he lost consciousness.
However, taking a bath is time-consuming and labor-intensive.
It is also time-consuming and labor-intensive to change a set of clean clothes from the inside to the outside.
But Rong Ting was always patient and slow.
It wasn't until Jiang Rao couldn't wait for a long time that he began to faintly feel agitated.
Watching the sun rising in the east and setting back in the west.
After waiting all day, he was sure that she really wouldn't come today.
Yesterday's sincere request, but she... took it as a joke
Rong Ting frowned.
My heart is more uneasy.
Suddenly, he recalled some time ago, when she didn't come for a few days, the last thing he waited for was the news that her carriage fell off the cliff.
He got up suddenly, in a moment of anxiety, forgetting that his leg injury had not yet fully recovered, his bones suddenly hurt as if they were broken, and he fell back down heavily, with beads of sweat appearing on his forehead.
Not afraid of ghosts and gods, not afraid of people, but at this moment, I started to be afraid.
As he said, if she didn't come, he would go find her himself.
He turned the wheelchair and left the house.
…
After arriving at Jiang's mansion, before reaching the main entrance, he heard a rustling sound beside the wall.
On the wall, a small head poked out.
