Rebirth of the Golden Bastard

Travelers are divided into two groups.The first group is Yingyou, Sikongding and Park Mingze.Tang Ben and his party were kicked out of the capital a long time ago, and Pu Mingze just found an excuse to sneak back, because Tang Ben was there, so they had to hide their every move from each other.Tang Ben only thought that Park Mingze was investigating the enemy's situation, and he didn't think too much about it, but he still didn't expect that Emperor Ren would expel them directly.Originally thought that he was a gentle and gentle emperor, but he didn't want to look majestic.

Si Kongding will follow, it is completely out of boredom.He seldom meddles in state affairs, and he only drinks flowers and wine in the capital every day. Although he has fought in the battlefield, it was many years ago when he thinks about it.Renhuang would agree to go with him, but it was just to boost Yilan's prestige and scare Jin Zhangguo with some momentum.

After Pu Mingze left the capital, he went to chase Tang Ben and the others first, and they agreed to leave a code to contact them all the way, and Yingyou and Si Kongding would follow them a few days later.

Compared with the first group, the second group of people looked more like they were going on a tour. With Cang Qiao as the leader, Xia Yunqing and Jiang Ji naturally followed, followed by his attendants Gu Xiao, Sikong Lang and Hua Que.

Hua Que wanted to leave alone, but was blocked by Cang Qiao.No matter what you say, you have to go in the direction of Jiangnan anyway, and you also have a companion.Although Hua Que didn't want to be with Sikong Lang, but because of Cang Qiao's face, he had no choice but to nod.Cang Qiao took the opportunity to inquire around, but Hua Que's mouth was strict, and she didn't ask any gossip anyway.

They set off half a month later than Yingyou and the others. Before leaving, Murong Ya told Cang Qiao that he had contacted the Titan, and that if the Titan got any news, he would go directly to them.

That being said, Cang Qiao still has one thing to do before leaving.Xia Yunqing was puzzled, but she didn't expect that the man would actually find Hongxiu Niang from the embroidery workshop the next day.

There were a lot of people eating lunch but the atmosphere was cold. Xia Yunqing kept silent, Mr. Xia kept silent, Hongxiu Niang sat across from them and ate elegantly. Cang Qiao told bad jokes as usual, but no one laughed because they Can't understand.

Hongxiu Niang was dressed in bright red, and her clothes were made of high-quality silk yarn, so she could clearly see the flesh-colored skin underneath.A gold-rimmed apron was looming on her chest, and her white and tender skin was lightly pink. Qianqian slowly sipped from a wine glass with her fingers, and three red hairpins in her black hair were dazzling.This woman was completely different from Mrs. Xia, she had a quack air about her, she was less ladylike and more chic, although she could not be called graceful and gentle, she was full of charm.

After several people had finished their meal, the servants put away all the bowls and utensils on the table and re-placed the fruit plate and tea.Hongxiu Niang poured a cup of tea by herself, and looked at Xia Cangqiao calmly, "I don't know why the young master asked me for it?"

"It's nothing serious." Cang Qiao blinked, "I just want to ask about this." He reached out and took out a few things and put them on the table.Everyone was taken aback when they saw that they were actually the three wooden plaques used to frame Cang Qiao before for the protection of Xia's Embroidery Workshop.

Hongxiu Niang looked at the things on the table and her face remained unchanged, "Isn't this something on the Xia family's guards?"

Cang Qiao nodded, "I want to know why they appeared in Fang Xing's hands."

Hongxiu Niang smiled cheerfully, "How do I know? Why didn't the young master ask the three missing people?"

Cang Qiao smiled, "Can I still ask about the missing person? Hongxiu Niang is good at joking."

Hongxiu Niang snorted coldly, "Why isn't Eldest Young Master joking? Could it be that this thing came from the embroidery workshop, so it must have something to do with me?"

Cang Qiao said: "I heard from the housekeeper that the three of them were newcomers, and logically the wooden plaques should be issued next month, but Xiu Niang is so hardworking, so she made them so early."

Hongxiu Niang said indifferently: "I have nothing to do these few days, and it doesn't take much time to make a wooden sign."

"Nothing to do?" Cang Qiao looked at Xia Yunqing strangely, "Why do I remember hearing about the Xia Family's Treasure Festival from the court minister?"

Xia Yunqing said: "The Xia family will manufacture some new accessories and clothes in large quantities every year in midsummer, and some of them have been ordered by concubines in the palace."

Cang Qiao smiled, "Isn't it almost time?"

Hongxiu Niang was a little annoyed, "Even if the embroidery shop can't spare any extra time recently, it was last month when those three people came..." Before he finished speaking, Master Xia put his chopsticks away.

The sound of the bamboo chopsticks hitting the bowl was light and crisp, obviously not heavy, but it made Hongxiu Niang shut up suddenly.

Master Xia looked straight at her, "The embroidery workshop in the first half of the year is all prepared for that day, and there will be leisure in the second half of the year."

These words have been said clearly enough, Hongxiu Niang's face was not good-looking and she was silent for a while before she said: "Yes, those three people came to the embroidery workshop to ask for that wooden plaque."

Master Xia asked, "Why? This is all arranged by the housekeeper. It's just that others don't know the rules, and you don't know the rules either?"

Hongxiu Niang bit her lower lip with displeasure in her eyes, "The three of them seem to be good at martial arts. Didn't you want to send some people to protect Cang Qiao in the past few days? I think the three of them are good, so I specially spared time made."

Master Xia slapped the table, "Presumptuous! This matter is up to you? Why didn't you ask me first?"

That day he asked Gu Xiao to look for Hongxiu Niang, because Xiu Niang hadn't come to Xia Mansion to report the situation of the embroidery workshop for many days, so he had to send Gu Xiao to urge her, but unexpectedly, such a thing happened.

Hongxiu Niang was also angry, she slapped the table and stood up, Liu Mei raised her phoenix eyes and opened her eyes wide, "I'm sharing your worries, I didn't know that something like this happened! Could it be my fault?"

Cang Qiao leaned on the table with one hand and watched the two elders quarrel with each other, even if Master Xia could bear it, he was also a little frustrated at this time.Cang Qiao thought slowly: It seems that this cheap old man is not worried about his own safety, probably because he was framed by his own family before, so he was angry, but now he looks so protective of his cubs.

It's just that I thought this matter had something to do with Xiu Niang, but it seems that it has nothing to do with it.But it can be regarded as some clues, the three people should have ambushed and entered the Xia Mansion a month earlier.

After thinking about it, he felt better, and slightly hooked the corners of his mouth.Xia Yunqing watched clearly from the side, as if she knew what he was thinking, the hand under the table held Cang Qiao's, and the two of them interlocked their fingers, Hongxiu Niang's sharp voice did not sound annoying at all.

When Hongxiu Niang walked away in a flick of her sleeves, Master Xia heaved a long sigh.Cang Qiao got up to leave, but stopped when she crossed the threshold, and turned to look at Master Xia.

"Father, do you want to marry that woman?" He asked without warning, which made Master Xia stunned.

"Who said that?" Master Xia scowled, and then returned to his expressionless serious look, "It's enough to have your second mother."

Xia Yunqing was also taken aback for a moment, he originally thought... Thinking of him looking at Cang Qiao, Cang Qiao raised his eyebrows, what does that mean—see if you think too much, how can that woman compare to you? Where is your mother?

Xia Yunqing's heart suddenly softened, Cang Qiao had his own in his heart, he was worried that the woman would come to Xia's mansion to make trouble once they left, so he helped him resolve the knot in advance.In this way, he can go out boldly with confidence.

The two looked at each other in the air, Master Xia seemed to feel that the atmosphere was a bit strange, and looked at them suspiciously, "Is there anything else?"

"No." Cang Qiao closed his eyes and coughed dryly, "Father, you are still a flower, be careful to attract bees and butterflies."

Master Xia didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and gave his eldest son a hard look, "It's not big or small!"

Cang Qiao smiled and wandered out.Xia Yunqing also wanted to go out, but Master Xia held him back, "Yunqing, take good care of your elder brother when you go out this time."

Xia Yunqing nodded, "Naturally."

Master Xia shook his head, "It's not as simple as you think... In short, I must take good care of your elder brother." As he spoke, he seemed to be talking to himself, "I'm afraid we can't hide this matter."

Xia Yunqing was surprised, "Father? What did you say?"

"You should know, you will know one day." Master Xia let go of Xia Yunqing's hand, got up and walked out.His tall body slightly blocked the sunlight at the door, and his shadow was elongated on the ground, "Actually, I never had any expectations for your elder brother. I just hope that he is ordinary, safe, and happy for the rest of his life."

Xia Yunqing rarely saw his sad father, so he didn't know what to say for a while.It's just that Master Xia didn't wait for his answer, and went out directly across the threshold.

……

Half a month later, everyone set off.

A row of carriages parked beside the outer city gate of the capital, many of them came to see them off.

Those who saw Sikong Lang off were the Third Prince and the Ninth Prince, as well as some court ministers who supported Sikong Lang.The eldest prince Si Kongming also came, but he just stood far away, didn't say anything or say hello.

The Xia family was naturally sent off by Master Xia and Mrs. Xia. Mrs. Xia gave many instructions to her two sons with a worried face, and prepared all kinds of things, big and small, but she still felt that something was missing.

"Ma'am." Master Xia sighed, "If you take it again, you might as well move the Xia residence away."

Mrs. Xia was helpless, "I'm also worried..." She said and looked at Cang Qiao again, "Cang Qiao, take care of yourself, don't be too impulsive in everything, and calm down when things happen."

Cang Qiao nodded, and Xia Yunqing got on the horse beside her and said, "We're leaving now, there's no need for parents to send them off."

"Hey..." Mrs. Xia looked at her second son reluctantly, Master Xia patted her hand and said: "It's not the first time to travel far away, Yunqing went to the frontier with Yingyou to practice when she was only a teenager, At that time, we would gather less and leave more.”

While talking here, a group of people over there have already started their journey.Yan Jin watched Cang Qiao clumsily climb up the handsome white horse's back, and suddenly remembered that when the two met for the first time, that stinking brat looked like this.

He said: "If there is anything wrong, withdraw, come back and discuss."

Sikong Shen didn't say much at the side, but looked past Cang Qiao and looked at Gu Xiao who was behind.Gu Xiaozheng hurriedly put some packages into the carriage box, because he was running too fast, he stumbled and almost fell down.A hand next to him easily caught him.

Sikong Shen watched the young man and Jiang Ji quarrel from a distance, Jiang Ji smiled evilly, the young man and him talked about something, and the side of his face turned slightly red.He was a little dazed, and he didn't come back to his senses until Nan Xun reminded him next to him. He put away all his emotions and smiled, "Cang Qiao, Yun Qing, it's a good journey."

Cang Qiao immediately turned to look at him, "Don't tell me I'm going to die, okay?"

Sikong Chen still smiled calmly, but he couldn't help looking at Gu Xiao over there. Gu Xiao had already got into the carriage, and he was in charge of being the driver. The long whip in Xiao Xiao's hand looked a little out of place.Gu Xiao rolled up her sleeves, exposing her white and thin arms, turned her head to meet Sikong Shen's eyes, the man nodded and smiled, Gu Xiao lowered her head in a panic.

Except for the sparrow, everyone rides a horse.Four tall horses and two carriages headed out of the city slowly.One carriage contained everyone's bags and other things they needed for daily use, and the other carriage contained Huaque.

Hua Que didn't slowly lift the curtain to look out until the carriage had gone a long way.Looking at it, he saw a big yellow horse walking beside the curtain of the carriage, Sikong Lang sat on it, and when the curtain was lifted, he pulled the horse rope and leaned closer to the carriage.

"What's wrong?" Sikong Lang asked in a thick voice.

Hua Que looked at him for a while, "Why did you come out with me?"

Sikong Lang pursed his lips, "I don't know, but when I heard that you were leaving, I wanted to follow along."

Hua Que frowned, "Do you have any sense of being a prince? I'm an actor, how about a dignified prince..."

Sikong Lang didn't wait for him to finish before he said: "When I didn't know that I was the prince, you treated me like a family member. At that time, I thought you were a daughter, and I wanted to marry you wholeheartedly. Although we separated later, I Never forget you."

"Now you know I'm a man."

"Mmm..." Sikong Lang replied, but he didn't speak for a while, and after a while he said: "You are a man, so I can't marry you."

Huaque's heart twitched, but her face was expressionless, "Then what are you doing?"

"But I don't want to lose sight of you." Sikong Lang lowered his head and looked at the man, "Before I figure out what to do, I will follow you first."

If you just let Huaque go away, you will never see him again.For some reason, Sikong Lang felt that he could not accept such a thing, so he could only follow the other party until he could sort out his confused thoughts.

Hua Que couldn't tell whether he was happy or unhappy, but his face softened a lot.He didn't say a word, and looked forward in a straight direction, and saw a big snow-white horse and a big black horse leaning close together in the front.Immediately, the two of them were fighting and fighting, and it was as beautiful as a painting.Cang Qiao's confident side face made people feel as if there was nothing to worry about in the world.

Let's take a step and see... Hua Que stopped talking, put down the curtain and shrank into the carriage.
