Luxiangling will be very lively after dark, as long as it's not raining.
For local villagers in Luxiangling, these days have been even more exciting than in the past.
Since that morning, when the group of boys fought to death in the mud pit, it has become their parents' home court in the past few days.
Unlike children, adults come forward to take care of their families. Seven aunts, six wives, three uncles and eight uncles all join the battle.
For several nights in a row, hundreds of people were so noisy and grumpy that they even waved their weapons around.
The night breeze was cool and comfortable, blowing again.
Xia Zhaoyi raised his head from behind the desk and looked out the window.
The night was peaceful and starry, and it would be nice if there weren't those quarrels where all the curse words came out of my mouth.
There was a sudden knock on the open door, and Gao Zhou came in with several letters in his hand and said hurriedly: "Second Miss, there is finally news about Ling De!"
Xia Zhaoyi was stunned and took the letters. Two of them were her "eyes" left in Guide, and the rest were actually military information intercepted along the way.
Xia Zhaoyi glanced at ten lines, reading each letter one by one, and frowned lightly.
"What's going on?" Gao Zhou asked, "How is General Shen?"
"Did the person who delivered the letter say anything?" Xia Zhaoyi asked.
"No, he was transferred halfway too. Second Miss... something happened?"
"No," Xia Zhaoyi looked at the letters and said, "Nothing happened to Shen Lie, but Guide and Jinghe sent troops to encircle and suppress him."
"General Shen is brave, and there are not many people this time, so it should be easy to escape!"
Xia Zhaoyi still frowned.
"Second Miss, don't worry..."
Xia Zhaoyi said softly: "You are right, with his bravery, it is easy to escape. When you first traveled to Hu County, the terrain was limited, and he was deeply involved in internal and external troubles, and it was winter, so it was difficult to leave. Returning to De Jinghe, but he There are more open and flat areas, and it couldn't be easier for him to escape. But it's so simple, why doesn't he leave?"
Gao Zhou said: "I understand, because the goal has not been achieved yet?"
Xia Zhaoyi nodded, with uneasiness in his eyes: "I'm just worried that he doesn't want to leave."
Gao Zhou also became frightened: "It's true that General Shen is a stubborn and stubborn person. He doesn't listen to anyone."
After a pause, Gao Zhou looked at Xia Zhaoyi: "No, General Shen seems to be..."
Xia Zhaoyi looked at him, waiting for him to continue.
For a long time, Gao Zhou didn't say anything.
"General Gaolang?" Xia Zhaoyi said.
Gao Zhou scratched his head: "I feel like General Shen still listens to your words, Miss Second."
Xia Zhaoyi was shocked. Because of Gao Zhou's words, her heart suddenly lit up, and then she felt happy. However, she was usually quiet, and her face was always calm, so Gao Zhou didn't notice the slightest disturbance.
After thinking for a while, Xia Zhaoyi said: "The obedience you are talking about, is it like the obedience of a brother to a sister? Or, between friends who have a very good relationship?"
"Ah?" Gao Zhou said, "What do you mean, Miss Second?"
On the contrary, it's not like I didn't understand.
That is, why are they divided so finely?
Okay, I still don’t seem to understand.
Gao Zhou was at a loss.
Xia Zhaoyi was also confused.
The two people were at a loss behind the wind behind the Suchuan Cuidie Seat. Their souls wandered for a while across the bookcase. Xia Zhaoyi gathered his thoughts first and said: "We have been here in Luxiang Ridge for a long time. Let's set off at noon tomorrow. .”
Gao Zhou suddenly said: "Second Miss, you came to Luxiang Ridge to wait for General Shen?"
Xia Zhaoyi: "..."
"I haven't seen you out and about in the past few days. We thought about it and it seems that Luxiang Ridge is the only place Lingde must pass on his way to Hengxiang."
Xia Zhaoyi lowered her eyes and looked at the open letters in front of her. After meeting Yao Zhen in the back office that day, she pushed Zhili out and passed by the lamplight in the courtyard where Shen Lie was waiting for her.
It was that garden lamp that made her know for the first time what it was like to miss her.
It was that taste that gave her the idea of visiting Luxiang Ridge.
That night, she rushed to the Yamen as quickly as possible, only to learn that Yao Zhen was fine. Although she looked calm, she almost vomited a basin of blood in her heart.
She and Shen Lie, she and Shen Lie haven't finished talking yet!
After arriving at Luxiang Ridge, she waited day after day.
I originally planned to wait only two days, but I thought he would arrive tomorrow, so I decided to wait another day.
In the blink of an eye, four or five days passed.
It was clear that she was no longer idle now, and had so many things to be busy with, but she stayed like this.
No matter in her previous life or now, she has rarely been so willful.
Gao Zhou looked at her and couldn't help but said: "Second Miss, why are you acting strange tonight?"
Xia Zhaoyi took a deep breath, stopped all thoughts, raised his head and said, "Go and talk to them. We will leave at noon tomorrow."
"What about Yang Guanxian?"
"Let him, he can stay if he wants, and leave if he wants. However, you go and ask him if he wants to borrow money."
"Borrow money?"
"He used to be a big shopkeeper and ran a large-scale restaurant in the capital. If he wants to borrow it, let him write an IOU. We won't charge interest."
Gao Zhou nodded: "Since we can open a restaurant in the capital, it shows that we have good management skills, and we should not be as homeless as we are now."
"Go ahead." Xia Zhaoyi said.
"Um!"
Gao Zhou resigned and left.
The evening breeze blew again, and the voices of those arguing outside the window gradually faded away.
Xia Zhaoyi stood up and went to the other window, gently opened the sash, and looked towards the far east with eyes as clear as a snow lake.
After a long while, she opened her red lips and said in a low voice: "Shen Lie."
Southeast of Luxiang Ridge, through a huge wasteland stretching for hundreds of miles, you can go directly to Huazhou.
From Huazhou to Hejing is a journey that Xia Zhaoyi is very familiar with.
At noon, Xia Zhaoyi left Luxiang Ridge with ten secret guards and rode away.
After Yang Guanxian, Xia Yuda and Tang Taosheng saw them off, they returned to the inn and sat at the window.
He likes to sit by the window, because if something happens, the window will be the first to notice it and can escape quickly.
Over time, this became a habit.
Xia Yuda no longer pretended to be a waiter, put on a set of clothes that looked rich, and came in to eat like an ordinary diner.
He pulled up the long bench opposite Yang Guanxian, sat down and said, "What are you thinking about?"
Yang Guanxian held his cheeks with both hands and said, "Many things."
Although he had been hungry for a long time, he did not lose his appearance. After a few days of eating and drinking, his face quickly turned round.
Xia Yuda said nothing and did not disturb him, but Yang Guanxian continued: "Miss Ah Li was generous and lent me a lot of silver. I was thinking that now that the money is in place, can I go back to the charming Yang Guanxian before?" Big boss."
Xia Yuda was silent for a moment and said, "Have you ever been romantic?"
"It mainly depends on temperament."
"Oh, have you... ever been temperamental?"
Yang Guanxian paused suddenly, his small eyes glowed brightly, and he turned to look at Xia Yuda.
Xia Yuda said: "What's going on?"
"Temperament!" Yang Guanxian suddenly became a little excited, "By the way, it's temperament!"
