Between the vast sea of ​​clouds

Chen Jun looked at Qingping expressionlessly, the relaxed atmosphere just now has disappeared, but now there is a hidden threat of swords being drawn, Qingping sees her like a wolf whose territory has been violated, the attacking posture is already set, waiting for the desperate prey to hit her come up.

Chen Jun took out a handkerchief and wiped her hands, and a gentle smile curled up on the corner of her mouth: "Didn't your parents teach you? It's fine if you don't get some things, chasing after them is just useless work."

The boy was suffocated by her sharp eyes, looked around uncomfortably, and barely straightened his back and said, "If you haven't tried it, how do you know that you are doing useless work?"

Chen Jun shook her head with a smile, with a hint of sarcasm in her smile, looking at him as if looking at a wolf cub who provoked a wolf, as if she disdained such an overreaching challenge.Without saying a word, she turned around and sat down, continuing to eat.

Qingping silently picked up a piece of meat with chopsticks and put it in the bowl, secretly raised his eyes to look at Chen Jun, and found that Chen Jun was showing her an encouraging smile, but there was some kind of inexplicable gloom in that smile, Qingping was very puzzled Ever since she came down from Tianliang Mountain that day, she has always looked like this, looking weird.

Most of the caravan had already left in the afternoon, and the efficiency of the people behind to handle customs clearance documents has also been greatly accelerated.Riding on the horse, Qing Ping looked at Ms. Shao who pushed Liu Zhen away without a word. Ms. Shao smiled happily and kept looking at her with eyes like seeing a baby. Ms. Shao went over cheekily and asked, "Qing Ping, what are you doing?" Have you thought about what to do next?"

Qing Ping moved a little further away from her, and said cautiously: "You have to study to get fame."

Ms. Shao rolled her eyes and said with a smile: "It's so tiring. Although it's good to be an official, it's just that the exam is difficult. If it's just for the future, I have an idea."

While talking, the carriage slowly overtook them, Qingping hurriedly said: "Thank you for your kindness, it's not too late to talk about the future, I'll take a step first!"

Seeing her walk away, Miss Shao felt very frustrated.

In the carriage, Chen Jun was playing with an inconspicuous wooden sign in her hand, silently looking at the trembling curtains, since that day and night conversation, she was often in such a trance.

Her biological mother is an emperor, but she is extremely superstitious about the theory of longevity. She favored monks and mages for several years, and neglected the government, causing the country to fail and the ministers to have two hearts.

Maybe it was because what he heard that night was so bizarre, it was almost like a dream, but after thinking about it carefully, it seemed to be a metaphor for something.

If a person has nothing in his body, how can he be afraid of losing it?

Gain and loss are fateful, who will be the fate?She squeezed the wooden sign in her hand, slowly opened her palm, and held it in her palm.

The two prefectures of Chenmin and Minzhou have known each other for a long time, and the folk customs are similar with minor differences. Qingping watched the passers-by wearing short jackets and half trousers on the road, and fanned the wind with his hands to keep his face from being so hot.

It is hot. This coastal state and county seems to be under the shroud of summer forever. The wind blowing towards the face is full of indescribable enthusiasm, not to mention the scorching sun and the hot ground. Only when you occasionally walk under the shade of a tree can you feel good. some.

Qingping obviously felt that he had been tanned a lot. They passed by a market where the houses were made of wooden boards. Liu Zhen bought several bamboo hats and shared one with Qingping.

"Why is that guy surnamed Shao still following us?" Liu Zhen glanced back, the original long caravan was gone, only a few guards and a carriage were left behind them slowly, thank you No rush, and I don't mean to be in a hurry.

Qingping unscrewed the water bag listlessly and took a sip of water: "I don't know either, let's go along."

Whether it goes smoothly or not is actually not very important. Thinking of Miss Shao's enthusiastic gaze and earnest attitude, Qingping felt as if he was being targeted by something, and couldn't help feeling a chill in his heart.

Why?She really wanted to break her head and didn't understand why Miss Shao's attitude had changed drastically, especially after entering Minzhou, she might have returned to her own territory, and even sneaking stalking had turned into an upright stalking.

But Chen Jun didn't say anything from the beginning to the end, and her attitude made Ms. Shao follow her even tighter.Qingping glanced at the sky depressingly. The blue sky was clear and cloudless, and the tree-lined path was soaked in the heat of noon, and it was no longer cool. The horses were lazily walking slowly. Liu Zhen suddenly pointed to a place and said: "What is that place?"

Qingping looked in the direction she was pointing at, and saw a small black corner in the gap between the leaves. There was a small object shaking back and forth underneath. Lancheng, the place to look at the sea."

Liu Zhen and Qing Ping suddenly felt cramped as if they had deserted in class and were caught. They both followed the carriage obediently. Tianxuan passed by them, holding swords in both hands, shaking his head mockingly.

In the evening, the woods finally came to an end, and the narrow path suddenly became wider. Standing here and looking down, an extremely vast city appeared in front of everyone. This city was closely connected to the sea, and the blue water rolled With the snow-white waves advancing layer by layer, the distant sea is like a mirror, reflecting the blue sky.

Flying eaves are rare in buildings in Minzhou, and the tiles along the sides are turned out to facilitate the rainwater to flow down.Occasionally, you can see a bamboo building hidden deep in the bushes. A group of people enter the city wearing long robes and bamboo hats. Looking at the thin clothes and shorts all over the street, the Minzhou people suddenly feel hotter on their bodies.

The sea breeze blows, and the sound of jingle bells echoes non-stop. People here will hang a copper bell on the right side of the eaves. This copper bell is usually obtained from the temple, and the surname of the main family is engraved on it. It is engraved with the words of wishes, and it is said that every time the copper bell shakes back and forth, it is repeating the wish of the family.

Qing Ping originally thought that Ms. Shao would continue to follow her, but she didn't expect that the chariots and horses that had been following her all these days disappeared after just entering the city.It was getting dark, and the group found an inn in the city to rest for a while. When they got up the next day, Liu Zhen brought two sets of Min people's clothes and changed them with Qing Ping. Qing Ping asked while getting dressed, "Miss is going out again?"

Liu Zhen was not very good at wearing this kind of clothes, so she studied for a while before changing into them. After they got dressed, they went to wait in front of Chen Jun's door, and the door opened after a while.

Chen Jun was wearing a new dress, and she stood by the door and straightened her sleeves. She was very bright in this suit, and it brought some color to her face that had been depressed for many days.

She looked at the two of them, but said to Qingping: "Did you comb this hair yourself? It still looks good."

Qingping rolled her eyes speechlessly, before nodding her head, Chen Jun tapped her forehead with a folding fan in her hand and said, "Why are you making such a weird face?"

This intimate action immediately made Qingping feel the low pressure lingering on her body eased.Chen Jun stepped out of the room with her sleeves fluttering. She didn't put on a crown, but wore a bun that is common among Minzhou girls. Looking around, she was as radiant as a Lanzhi jade tree.

Chen Jun said: "Let's go, Tianquan is waiting for us outside the door."

The carriage drove to the outskirts of the city, and many green plants were planted along the road. These tall crown trees had luxuriant branches and leaves, and the wide leaves blocked the sun, leaving a shade. After an incense stick, the car stopped in front of a white building.

This house is built with white stones. Because of the ingenious design of the craftsmen, the stones fit together tightly, which looks like a complete fit. There are three steps in the house, which are much higher than ordinary houses. Once a Jinshi.A few words were written on the plaque in Fu language and Common language, but because it was too scribbled, Qingping couldn't understand it after reading it for a while.

Chen Jun patted her head and said, "It's 'Shao'."

Both the middle door and the side door were opened. The servants sat on both sides of the door, holding a cup with fine wine inside. They entered the house through the middle door. The servants on both sides tapped the cup of wine with their fingers, flicked it three times in the air, and then It is a very grand etiquette for a waiter to come out with flowers in hand, and it has always been used to entertain distinguished guests.

After entering the house, I found that the building inside was imitating the Han people, with rockery and green trees, two completely different styles.Although Qingping was curious, she also knew that it was better for her to know less about some things.

Chen Jun was led to the deep part of the house, surrounded by trees, the ground was cut with green bricks for ponds and canals, in which water lilies were planted, and many golden carp were raised, swimming leisurely past people's feet, not afraid of people, some He also raised his head and opened his mouth, as if begging for food.

In the open and bright reception room, the floor is paved with black marble, a small table is placed, and there is a curtain in the corner that can be lowered. The servants light incense and put it in the silver incense ball. Spilled and exhilarating.

"Miss, please sit down."

A woman in brocade clothes and embroidered robes walked out from one side, she was stunned when she saw Chen Jun's equipment, and said with a smile: "It's really lost all of them."

It was thought that she changed into Han Chinese clothes specially to entertain guests, but Chen Jun also wanted to see her, so she also changed into Fu Chinese clothes, the two were not the opposite.

"My surname is Shao and my name is He. When I heard that Miss is here, I wanted to show my hospitality as a landlord. If there is any place where the hospitality is not good, I hope you will forgive me a lot!"

Shao He is obviously a familiar businessman, able to bend and stretch, without any airs.She poured the tea and handed it to Chen Jun, who took a sip with a smile and said, "Who doesn't know that the Shao family is a big family in Minzhou, how could there be a place where the hospitality is not good?"

Shao He obviously got the news and didn't dare to relax at all. Chen Jun noticed that although she was smiling, her hands were a little stiff.Shao He said some more polite words, then put away his smile, and said in a deep voice: "I heard that the third daughter and fourth son have offended the young lady by their inappropriate words and deeds, so let them come out to apologize to you this time, what do you think?"

Before Chen Jun could speak, she clapped her hands lightly and said, "Come out soon!"

A man and a woman came in from outside, and they knelt beside Shao He. Shao He's tone was heavy, and he stared at them with resentment, and said, "This is the third daughter, Shao Cong, and the fourth son, Shao Ming."

Chen Jun looked at the handsome young man on the right side with great interest, and said with a smile: "Young Master Shao, I told you earlier that when you arrive in Minzhou, you will know who I am. Are you satisfied now?"

Shao Ming calmly said: "I didn't know the identity of your lady at that time, so I was rude in words and deeds, please forgive me."

Shao Cong silently looked at his younger brother. She knew that he was always arrogant, and when he was forced to such a humble state, she couldn't help feeling sympathetic.

Shao He coughed twice, and said: "The child is ignorant and has always been stubborn, and the little girl is also useless. Miss Wang, don't care about the two of them."

There was silence in the hall for a moment, Chen Jun unfolded his folding fan and said, "Master Shao, I'm afraid there is still something to say?"

Shao He said: "Naturally, there is something we want to ask for. The reason why the Divine Academy sent the dragon lantern to Minzhou this time is for the two treasures passed down from generation to generation in the Zhenhai Pavilion. If they don't give them, they may spread rumors; After setting this precedent, there will be no end to it in the future.”

Chen Jun retracted the folding fan, remained silent for a moment, and said, "So?"

Shao He seemed a little hard to speak, but Shao Ming, who was sitting beside her, said, "I want to ask you for someone."

Chen Jun's eyes darkened, as if a storm was about to come, and said, "But I can't be her master."

Shao He scolded in a low voice: "What nonsense! Boys, don't talk nonsense!"

Shao Ming took a deep breath, and looked at Chen Jun determined to win. Shao He sat upright, put his hands on his forehead, bowed to Chen Jun, and said: "The fourth son is fifteen years old, and it's time to talk about marriage. My son from the Shao family I don’t want to cling to the rich and powerful, and I marry a wealthy family. I have always chosen a wife to marry into the family. I heard that there is a girl next to the lady who has never married. I want you to make the decision and allow this marriage.”

The author has something to say: The temperature in summer is changeable, everyone should pay attention to prevent cold and heatstroke.

Because I am the experiencer who has a cold and heatstroke.

Drowsy, did anyone sleep with me?
