Chapter 73: People Who Shouldn't Appear

Are you asking her to go back to embarrass her?

Liu'er can understand it.

Even if the young lady is around, no one will bully Fang Jinxiu, but if Fang Jinxiu's biological mother did such a thing, everyone knows that it has nothing to do with her, but there is unavoidable resentment in their hearts.

It’s not just the Fang family that has grudges, why not Fang Jinxiu?

Even if the Fang family lets her go, she can't let herself go.

It's like this, it's better to just cut it off and never see each other or think about each other.

"Old lady Chengyu and the eldest and second young ladies will take care of her secretly, so don't worry." Miss Jun continued.

What the young lady said was definitely correct. Liu Er smiled again and put aside this worry.

"Miss, please try this." She said, holding a bag of food in her hand.

Just as there was some noise in front of them, the two stopped and looked over. At this time, they had walked into the county government office. A group of officials were coming out of the county government office with their entourage, and they seemed to be getting on their horses and leaving.

Many officials came to Yangcheng this time, and not all of them need to be executed. It has been a long time since everyone came out. Today, the matter has been settled, and they have to leave one after another.

Because the people gathered at the execution platform, it was very quiet at the county government office, so these officials did not need officers and soldiers to clear the way when they went out. Everyone talked and laughed and mounted their horses casually.

Miss Jun also averted her eyes and continued to move forward with Liu Er. These officials and their entourage walked along the street in large numbers and without any disorder, and they passed by each other.

Just after passing two or three people, Miss Jun suddenly stopped and turned around as if she thought of someone.

Her eyes fell on the centaur who had just walked past.

Liu'er walked over without warning, only to find that Miss Jun stopped and turned around.

"What's wrong, miss?" she asked in confusion.

Miss Jun didn't answer her, she just looked at the group of people passing by on the street.

After all, the young lady wanted to watch the excitement. The beheading was too frightening so she didn’t want to watch it. Officials from these prefectural cities were rare to see on a daily basis. When they met, they would inevitably have to take a look.

Liu'er also looked over.

Most of these officials are civil servants, aged in their thirties or forties. Like all civil servants, they have a bookish air and the majesty gained from officialdom.

They were used to being watched by everyone, so even though they noticed two girls on the roadside looking over, they didn't pay any attention to them and walked upright without squinting. Only one entourage in green clothes looked over.

Miss Jun was also looking at him.

This is a man in his thirties or forties, fair-skinned, with a mustache, and an ordinary appearance, with the simple and honest aura that all his followers have.

Seeing that they were two girls of fourteen or fifteen years old, he didn't pay too much attention. He stretched out his hand to stroke his beard and looked away.

Miss Jun also looked away, and at the same time she could no longer hide the surprise in her eyes.

"Why is he here?" she murmured.

Liu'er heard it.

"Who is it? Does Miss recognize the person?" She quickly looked at the people walking past, "Is he a colleague of the master?"

Not Jun Yingwen's colleague.

Miss Jun looked over, because that person was not an official at all.

Her eyes fell on the entourage in green clothes.

He is a follower, but not a follower of any of these officials. He is the eunuch Yuan Bao.

Eunuch Yuan Bao was not a famous eunuch. On the contrary, he was very inconspicuous. Even after King Qi ascended the throne, he did not work in the palace.

The reason why Miss Jun remembers him is because when King Qi was still King of Qi, he was the one who took him with him when he came to Beijing for an audience in the East Palace.

At that time, she was being punished by her mother, so she knelt down outside her father's study. Jiuli couldn't coax her, so Yuan Bao, who was standing outside the door, did some little tricks to make her laugh. She happily rewarded him.

A piece of jade pendant, asked him what his name was, and wrote down his name.

Later, when King Qi ascended the throne and new people replaced old ones in the palace, she even asked Yuan Bao.

The King of Qi said that Yuan Bao was in poor health and did not want to leave his homeland, so he stayed at his residence in Shandong.

After so many years, she still recognized Yuan Bao at a glance because of the deep impression she had when she was a child.

Although he has two extra beards, he just reached out his hand to stroke his beard and covered it just right. He looked exactly like Yuan Bao.

Did she admit it wrong? This man just looks a lot like Yuan Bao? Otherwise, this would be really strange. How could Shou Qiandi come out and become a follower?

Who can afford to use the old eunuchs from the emperor's residence as his followers?

Could it be that they were placed like Jin Yiwei to monitor local officials?

Or is it related to what happened to the Fang family this time?

Miss Jun's expression changed for a moment.

"Liu'er." She calmed down and said, "You go back and wait for the old lady and the others first. Tell them that I think something is not right. I will go take a look. I may come back later."

Liu'er looked nervous.

"What's the matter?" she asked.

"I don't know what's going on yet," Miss Jun said.

"Then, I'll go with Miss." Liu'er became even more nervous and said, "What if something happens? Miss is alone."

"It's convenient for me to do things alone." Miss Jun said softly, "And you go tell your family so that if anything happens, they can help me better."

Although Liu'er was worried, she still nodded obediently.

"Miss, please be careful," she said.

Miss Jun nodded and waved her hand. Liu Er reluctantly turned around and looked back as she walked, watching Miss Jun walking quickly along the street.

……………………………………………

"Miss Fang, Miss Fang."

Chen Qi shouted, looking at Fang Jinxiu who was still walking quickly in front of him.

Fang Jinxiu ignored her, so Chen Qi had no choice but to speed up and walk around in front of her, reaching out to stop her.

"What are you doing?" Fang Jinxiu said angrily, "Why are you following me?"

Chen Qi let out a breath.

"Miss Fang, you are wandering around in this alley, where are you going?" he asked.

Fang Jinxiu looked ahead, and there was a street outside the alley entrance.

"I'm leaving the city," she said, "I'm leaving."

Chen Qi looked outside and recognized that it was the street leading out of the city. He looked up at the sky again and saw that the sunlight was already tilted.

"Miss Fang, even if you want to leave, don't leave at this time. You can't walk very far out of the city and it will be dark." Chen Qi said, "Have you decided where to go? Where can you go when it gets dark?

Can I stay overnight? Do you want to walk there or rent a car?"

Fang Jinxiu had never thought about these things. She left home at midnight last night and sat on the street corner for midnight. She originally decided to leave early in the morning, but she still wanted to see the bad guys being beheaded and see the memorial ceremony at home.

To fulfill the wishes of the daughter of the Fang family.

As for where she would go after leaving, she had not thought about it at all.

"Anyway, just leave." She said, pushed Chen Qi away and walked out quickly.

Chen Qi had no choice but to keep up.

"I said your girl looks quite smart, why are you so confused?" He said, "Since you have decided to leave the Fang family, you are a girl with ideas. You have to think about how to live in the future.

, take it seriously, what do you mean by this? Are you just angry?"

As he spoke, he bumped into Fang Jinxiu's back. He was startled and took a step back. However, he did not see the girl turn around and hit him. Instead, she leaned against the wall and looked out.

At this time, they had reached the entrance of the alley, and they were on the street with one step.

"What's wrong?" Chen Qi asked in confusion, and followed him to take a look.

People were coming and going on the street, and there were many more people than before. It seemed that the execution platform was over, and the spectators had dispersed. People gathered in twos and threes on the street were excited and dancing, obviously talking about the excitement of beheading.

.

Is it because they don’t want to be told about the Fang family?

Chen Qi followed Fang Jinxiu's line of sight and saw two people standing and talking not far from the entrance of the alley, a middle-aged man and a girl.

He couldn't help but sigh.

"That's not the one just now..." He pointed with his hand and said.

Before he could finish his words, Fang Jinxiu hit him.

"Stop talking." She whispered, looking at Miss Jun, and then her eyes fell on the man.

Although she looked much depressed compared to when she was at Jinyun Tower, she still recognized him at a glance as Lin Jin'er's father, Master Lin.

Why did she go with him? (To be continued)
