The carriage staggered toward Feihongju, and the sound from outside the curtain gradually became a lot louder. Meng Qiqi guessed that it was approaching the market. Gao Lan has a delicate status, and when she travels with other official sisters on weekdays, others find topics to chat with her. It's a pity that Meng Eqi is a careless person, so she lifts the curtain and looks out without caring about herself at all. As a result, Gao Lan took the initiative to find a few topics, and seeing Meng Qiqi's perfunctory response, she stopped making fun of herself.
Gao Lan closed her eyes and thought for a while, the evil fire in her heart could not be suppressed, and she became angry when she thought of Meng Qiqi's indifferent attitude. Then he opened his eyes and said, "Let's put the curtain down. My elder sister is so beautiful with her veil on. If I let the rude villagers outside see it, I might have bad intentions. What's more, my elder sister and I haven't left the cabinet yet, so I still need to pay attention. Some are good."
Gao Lan is not a person who cares much about fame, but she just doesn't want Meng Eqi to be wishful, no matter what Meng Eqi does, she always wants to sing the opposite.
Meng Eqi pinched the curtain with two fingers and was looking out. Gao Lan's words came into her ears, but Meng Eqi did not intend to lower the curtain.
Gao Lan's face sank: "Does my sister have to be so determined?"
"Is the market in the east or west of the city?" Meng Qiqi asked suddenly.
Gao Lan looked at her perfectly seductive profile, and reluctantly replied, "Of course it's in the east of the city."
"Then there are persimmon trees on the way to the east of the city?"
Gao Lan gave her a strange look: "How do I know?"
Meng Qiqi frowned tightly, she put down the curtain and thought carefully. She remembered that before coming to Youzhou, Sheng Jiayan had been to Youzhou and was 'Front Huai Jujube, Hou Xingyu, Dongliu Gold, Tomato Silver. 'Because Youzhou people believe in feng shui, pomegranate and other trees are planted in the east of the city, and persimmon and silver mulberry are in the west of the city, which are in line with the five elements of yin and yang.
Meng Eqi didn't know whether to be sure, but on the way here, although he did pass through some noisy markets, the direction of the carriage became more and more strange, and there were fewer and fewer people around. The carriage was so swaying, the ground must be uneven. But the road to the east of the city is flat, how can there be such a bumpy situation
She had wondered if Gao Lan had some bad intentions and deliberately deceived her from the Gao Mansion, but she asked Gao Lan a few words just now, apparently she didn't know it either.
"How many maids did you bring with you this time?"
Seeing Meng Eqi, Gao Lan lowered her voice suddenly, wondering what she was doing: "One, what does my sister ask this for?"
Could it be that Meng Eqi found something? In fact, Gao Lan would take four or five maids when she travels on weekdays, but this time she deliberately set up a bureau in Feihongju to embarrass Meng Eqi, so she never thought of taking more maids. Seeing that Meng Eqi's expression was a little dignified, she became more and more worried that Meng Eqi found something wrong.
Afraid that the plan would be revealed, Gao Lan deliberately shouted outside with some guilty conscience: "What's the matter! Haven't been to Feihongju for so long?"
Unexpectedly, there was no response from the driver outside.
Meng Qiqi's heart sank a little again.
Gao Lan also found it strange that she was about to get angry when Meng Qiqi grabbed her wrist. The two beautiful rouge-colored birthmarks at the end of Meng Eqi's eyes were very moving, but the light in her eyes was a little sharp, and Gao Lan felt a chill on her back.
"Stop shouting, where is the maid you brought now?"
"It's in the carriage at the back." Gao Lan stopped and lifted the curtain to look at it, and when he saw this, he broke out a lot of cold sweat: "There is no carriage behind!? How could it be!"
The two carriages sent by the Gao Mansion were one after the other, the one in front was for Gao Lan and Meng Qiqi, and the one in the back sat one of Gao Lan's maids and two guards. Gao Lan was a little anxious, Liu Yin was still on the carriage behind, if Liu Yin didn't keep up, who would cooperate with her in Feihongju to make Meng Qiqi embarrassed!
Meng Qiqi said solemnly: "I'm afraid people are deliberately distracted. We are not going to the east of the city, but to the west of the city. You go and see this road, where are you going? I have never been there. Youzhou City, I don’t know where we will go all the way west.”
Gao Lan looked incredulous: "Going to the west is going up the mountain, that's impossible! I told the driver to go to Feihongju, and he didn't have the guts to go against me."
Go up the mountain! ? Meng Eqi was startled, no wonder the carriage became more bumpy, it was originally a mountain road.
"I'm afraid we've been held hostage." Meng Eqi lowered her voice, not knowing who was driving the carriage outside now. She had never offended anyone, so why was she held hostage!
Gao Lan couldn't hold back when she heard it, how could she believe that the carriage from her house would be hijacked!
"Stop, this sister wants to go down!" She yelled outside, but Meng Eqi didn't have time to stop her. Similarly, the driver outside did not respond to her. Gao Lan immediately pushed aside the curtain of the carriage impulsively, with a fierce tone: "I told you to stop, are you deaf?"
As soon as she lifted the curtain, a flash of white flowers flashed in front of her eyes. Meng Qiqi quickly pulled Gao Lan back, and Gao Lan avoided the silver-white white knife in a thrilling way.
A brawny man with a large size and three thick men waved a long knife at the door curtain, and said fiercely: "Sit honestly, otherwise you will be silenced again!"
"You... who are you? My father is the prefect of Youzhou, if you dare to disrespect me..."
Before Gao Lan's words were shivering, he was spat by the strong man, and Gao Lan panicked to avoid.
The brawny man said with contempt, "Kill your life for your life, and in a while you'll be looking forward to your own death!"
"Murder!?" Gao Lan raised her voice a little higher: "When did I kill?"
The strong man sneered: "Sister Gao is so forgetful, you can only blame yourself for your bad life. Don't mess with the Zhao family. They are the only seedlings in the family, and they were killed by you. Now others don't want to. I sent you to the government, I just want you to die."
Gao Lan said in a daze: "The Zhao family? You, Zhao Changrong, are dead!?"
How could it be dead? Last time Zhao Changrong met her in Yunshen Pavilion. If he really died, the Zhao family must have known that Zhao Changrong was with him when they found him! Even if I didn't do it myself, I can't wash it now...
The strong man smiled coldly, but when Gao Lan was pretending to be stupid, he let go of the car curtains and turned to chat with his companions.
Meng Qiqi habitually touched the saber on his waist, but there was nothing. She remembered that when she changed this long dress this morning, she put the thin-handled long knife given by Sheng Jiayan in the house and did not carry it with her.
She looked at Gao Lan, who was in a trance, and thought to herself, wouldn't Gao Lan really kill someone, and someone else is looking for revenge
If this is the case, such an innocent disaster, how innocent I am...
…
Feihongju was greeted and sent, and the people with the book spit all over the table.
Sheng Jiayan was sipping a cup of tea in the elegant room upstairs, listening to the book man carefully telling the story of Erlang God.
"It is rumored that this God of War is a flesh-born immortal, and he has great merit. In the biography, mortals have to get rid of their emotions and desires. This God of War is an exception, because he still has a catastrophe! After the immortal book was registered there, he entered the reincarnation and passed his last love calamity..."
After Sheng Jiayan heard it, he couldn't help but glance at the book man more.
The scholar was hidden behind the screen, and he could only vaguely see a corner of the blue shirt.
"Your Highness—" Mo Chunfeng rushed from the outside in a hurry: "No, it's been half an hour since the Gao Mansion's car left the mansion. Normally it should have arrived early, but now it's lost. I just sent someone to go. I searched, but there was no trace."
Sheng Jiayan squeezed the tea cup tightly, and his eyes suddenly became gloomy.
At the same time, on the first floor of Feihong Residence, Fang Bao led dozens of servants swaggering in. The shot is a piece of gold, threatening to wrap up the field.
However, just after he finished speaking, the servant beside him stumbled in from the outside and whispered a few words in his ear. The relaxed look on Fang Bao's face gradually faded away, and before he could order anything, he felt a gust of wind swaying around him.
He looked back and saw that Sheng Jiayan and Mo Chunfeng were walking away.
After Fang Bao refused to be let go, he firmly believed that he was more familiar with Youzhou City than Sheng Jiayan, and then he would find Meng Qiqi first and see what Sheng Jiayan had to say!
The two teams, one on the left and one on the right, went to find people separately.
…
I don't know how long the carriage had been running, and Meng Eqi's butt was hurting, and the color outside was gradually darkening, and a few stars were vaguely crawling on the ink-colored cloth.
During the time they were being held hostage, Gao Lan cried a total of three times, forcibly tried to escape by jumping out of the window twice, because she rolled back and forth in the carriage and knocked her head to the corner of the table and fainted once. During the period, the strong man kept coming to frighten him with knives. In the strong man's mind, these were just two girls who were powerless. However, this was the case. Gao Lan was often so frightened that her face turned pale, and the strong man seemed to have found fun, and from time to time he would come in with a knife to frighten him a few times. After trying Bailing, it seemed that he was happy to appreciate Gao Lan's panicked appearance.
Meng Eqi pretended to be pale with fright, and tried her best to lean towards the corner of the carriage. First, he didn't want Gao Lan's waving arms and legs to hit him. The second is that she doesn't know the ruthlessness of the thief. She knows how many unexpected disasters her face can bring. Before Sheng Jiayan finds herself, she can only keep a low profile.
Gao Lan was so tired that she fell asleep.
Meng Qiqi was dumbfounded watching from the side, she was really big-hearted.
Meng Eqi opened a corner of the curtain and remembered the scenery outside by the moonlight. Thinking that these gangsters are not very professional Jianghu people, otherwise they would have been surrounded by their eyes, so that they would not know the way when they came.
I don't know what to do with them, but they made a special trip to catch them up the mountain.
Meng Eqi pulled out the hairpin on his head and hid it in his sleeve, and took out Gao Lan's hairpin and put it in his place.
After a while, Gao Lan finally woke up, and the first sentence she said was: "Why are my hair on the temples loose!"
