Startled Meng

The next day.

There are a lot of things going on in the mansion, it is not good for Yan Cijing to stay at the Yu Family, Yu Fangzhi is not very happy, and he wants to stay for a few more days, and the reason given is very good:

The matter of poisoning cannot be made public, but Yan Cijing still needs to take medicine, and if he decocts medicine in the yard, he will be found, so why don't he stay and wait for his illness to recover before leaving.

In this regard, Tang Shuang, who came to check the pulse, said, don't worry, decoction is inconvenient, just take pills instead.

Everyone is happy, only Yu knows whether he is happy or not.

Relying on his martial arts skills, he can freely enter and exit the government office, but it is different from his own small courtyard. There are no messy documents here, and Yan Cijing can take the time to hold a lantern and watch the motionless fish at the bottom of the lake. To tease the birds under the eaves, and to hug him under the quilt and say some sour words.

"What?" Yan Cijing tugged on La Yufangzhi's cuff while no one else was around.

Yu Fangzhi held that part of the wrist with his backhand, and took Yan Cijing into his arms, "You managed to get a good night's sleep last night, and when you get back to Tiger Cave and Longtan, you may be fine."

Yan Cijing raised his head behind the mirror and said with a smile, "It's not as serious as you said? Isn't there you?"

"That's a good word." Yu Fangzhi smiled and hugged Yan Cijing, hugging him and pushing towards the door.

At this moment, the door of the room was still closed, Yan Cijing didn't have such a big heart, he was afraid that someone would come in suddenly, pushed Yu Fangzhi's shoulder, and softly said don't make trouble.

There was a sound of fluttering wings, and Duan Chengkong followed the goshawk into the house, cursing: "What are you doing, scoundrel?"

Yan Cijing shrank into the room in fright, and quickly withdrew his hand. Unfortunately, the fear on his face was still there. In the eyes of Duan Chengkong who broke in suddenly, it was really remarkable.

"Master, why are you here?" There was a hint of complaint in Yu Fangzhi's words.

Duan Chengkong glanced at Yan Cijing, and urged Yu Fangzhi: "Come out! I have something to do with you."

Yu Fangzhi refused, saying that he wanted to send Lord Yan back to his residence, Duan Chengkong clicked his tongue, scolded the scoundrel, and told him to come out with him quickly, Master Yan asked Xiao Qing to take him off, and the carriage was already waiting at the stable.

Yu Fangzhi still wanted to give it away, so Duan Chengkong snatched it away.

Duan Chengkong muttered as he walked: "Master Yan stayed in your courtyard last night, why didn't you live somewhere else? It's too presumptuous!"

Duan Chengkong muttered, Yu Fangzhi turned his head three times at a step, Yan Cijing turned around and didn't look at it, Xiaoqing came up to meet him and smiled: "Master Yan, I'll help you pack your things."

Yan Cijing was puzzled, and Xiao Qing said again: "Master Yan said that Master Yan should not be allowed to return empty-handed, no, no, Master Yan, don't think too much, it's just some snacks like dried fruit and winter dates, you can just take them and eat them on the way. "

It only takes a stick of incense to go from the language house to the government office, and it takes only half an hour to use the carriage. It's not a long distance, so why do you need dry food and snacks?Yan Cijing knew that Yu Wanqian was worried that he would be neglected due to poor hospitality, and would not be able to please others, so he let Xiaoqing take care of him.

She didn't know how to pack it up, she packed out a big bag, Yan Cijing said that she couldn't lift it, so Xiao Qing slowly took out half of it.

"Oh! Don't forget Master Yan's medicine!"

Xiaoqing ran to the table next to the bed and took the medicine, then picked up an old cloth bag, and said, "Master, isn't this little thing very precious? Why don't you just put it away? Then I'll keep it first, and I'll give it to the young master later. "

It was an old light yellow cloth bag with frayed edges, Yan Cijing had seen it before, and it was found from Yu Fangzhi the day he was imprisoned.

When he was called away, he didn't have time to see what was inside, but he knew it was a red rope.

Xu Shiyan took another look at Yan Cijing, and Xiao Qing graciously explained: "The young master often held it in his hand when he was young, but now he found it out again for some reason. It is said that it was left to him by the playmate of the young master's childhood sweetheart."

"Childhood sweetheart?" Yan Cijing thought of the abducted child, and Yu Fang knew that it was this child who visited the prison every night.

Xiaoqing boasted that he only knew the closest people around him, and he must know what others didn't know, and immediately said nonsense: "Yes! She was the young master's playmate when I was young, but then somehow, she disappeared, young master every night Missing her, you have to hold on to the red rope to fall asleep."

It can make Yu Fangzhi think about it until now... Yan Cijing asked: "Have you seen him?"

The fact that he has never seen it does not prevent Xiao Qing from improvising. He remembered the white jade Yu Fang Zhidiao, and said, "She is as beautiful as a begonia!"

"Haitang?"

Yan Cijing murmured in a low voice, followed behind Xiaoqing, and walked towards the stable.

Passing by the garden, it was winter, and the branches should have fallen, but Yan Cijing was fascinated by a tree of gorgeous crabapples.

"It's cold, why are there so many begonias blooming?"

Begonias like warmth, and it is amazing to bloom abnormally in winter, but Yan Cijing has no intention of getting close at all, just watching from a distance.

Xiaoqing looked at it, and said with a smile: "It's all fake, the young master likes crabapple, the crabapple brought by Yecheng is difficult to grow, and finally planted, and the flowers don't bloom when it's cold, the young master said that the bare branches are not good-looking , so someone tied up a paper-made crabapple."

"If you don't look carefully, you really can't see it, Mr. Yan, do you think so?" Xiao Qing said.

Yan Cijing had no choice but to nod: "It's pretty nice."

Yan Cijing's voice was very low, not as loud as the winter wind piercing the ears.

When Xiaoqing sent him to the car, she took a look at him and felt that he was not very happy.

Isn't it?After what happened at lunch yesterday, who would be in a good mood?

Outside the government office, Juniper and Duyan were waiting at the door, saw Yan Ci mirroring the carriage, and immediately came up to help carry things.

Yan Cijing didn't go to the meeting hall, nor did he go into the study, but went back to his yard.

Juniper had already prepared hot water and meals, and when Yan Cijing came back, he would not be in a hurry.

Yan Cijing didn't want to take a bath, nor did he want to eat, thinking of the begonia that Xiaoqing had mentioned, he went under the pillow to find the white jade that promised love.

Passing by the dining table, the familiar stew pot made him stop.

Juniper saw it, and said: "My lord, this is the ginseng soup that was stewed yesterday afternoon. It's a pity to lose it. I will reheat it this morning and bring it to my lord."

Yan Cijing nodded, sat down at the dining table, and ate other dishes without looking at the stew pot.

Juniper opened the lid of the stew pot beside him, revealing the nourishing ginseng soup.

When Yan Cijing smelled it, he was in a bad mood, but he didn't show it, he just said: "When did Ah Song start stewing ginseng soup? I drank it the day before yesterday, it was really good, and I slept a lot better."

Juniper smiled: "As long as you like it, I don't understand. Master Li brought a lot of ginseng from his hometown and distributed it to you. I don't understand medicine. Master Li said that ginseng stew is sweet. Let me try it. Stew it for adults to taste."

Yan Cijing didn't touch the ginseng soup, "Thank you Master Li for me."

He thought about staying put, but Master Li came to him in the afternoon.

It is said that there is something in the clan, and I have to go back, and all matters, large and small, are temporarily entrusted to Tongzhi.

Li Zhi is over forty years old, and he behaves well. The workshop he manages has done an excellent job in the construction of canals and embankments.

Yan Cijing remembered the situation in his family, and his expression was much more relaxed: "Master Li's grandson is almost full moon, right?"

Li Zhi said with a smile: "It's embarrassing, Lord Yan still remembers, yes, my son and daughter-in-law organized a full moon banquet in the countryside and asked me to go back and drink."

Yan Cijing nodded his head, and watched Li Zhi leave.

Before Li Zhi opened the door, he said sternly: "The ginseng stew that Mr. Li sent is very good, thank you."

Li Zhi hurriedly turned back and said kindly, "Master Yan, if you think the ginseng I sent is okay, I'll bring some more when I go back to my hometown."

Yan Cijing smiled lightly: "Master Li is polite."

As soon as Li Pheasant left, Yan Cijing knocked on the desk twice, caught a glimpse of the black shadow hanging from the window, and said, "Xiao Wu, go and keep an eye on Li Pheasant."

The black shadow outside the window disappeared without a sound. After a while, Xiao Wu came back and handed Yan Cijing a list.

Yan Cijing immediately took out the list of people who had been in and out of prison, and after comparing the two, Yan Cijing circled a person.

After Xiao Wu left, Yan Cijing dug out from the bookcase a safety talisman painted in black on yellow paper, which was given to him by Luo Sheng.

He called Luo Sheng in and handed him the peace talisman.

"Lord Luo, since I came to Jiangling, I have been in danger many times, and I have been able to save myself from danger. It can be seen that the safety talisman is indeed useful. I would like to ask, how can I get this safety talisman?"

Luo Sheng took it over, held it in his hands and looked at it, and asked, "Does your lord want to beg for someone?"

"Hmm..." Yan Cijing said after deliberation, "I wish him a safe life."

Luo Sheng nodded and said, "It's not difficult to ask for amulets, what's difficult is sincerity. Three kilometers to the north of the city gate, there is an earthen temple dedicated to Goddess Guanyin. As long as you are sincere, you can ask for amulets of peace and children."

Yan Cijing asked: "Then how can you be considered sincere?"

Luo Sheng: "The lower official once cleaned the temple for half a month, and the safety talisman was the reward. Some people donated tens of thousands of taels of sesame oil and could not get a talisman. It all depends on God's will."

Yan Cijing was slightly surprised: "This peace talisman is so rare, why did Master Luo give it to me?"

Luo Sheng put the peace talisman back into Yan Cijing's hand, and smiled gratifiedly: "Master Yan is diligent in government and loves the people, it is Jiangling's luck. This talisman is a little wish from the lower officials, so Lord Yan should keep it carefully."

Yan Cijing was moved in his heart, and recalled a series of events in the government office recently, and said with emotion: "Lord Luo, if the whole government can work together, I don't have anything extravagant to ask for."

"Master Yan will definitely get what he wants."

Yan Cijing nodded and watched Luo Sheng leave the study.

Luo Sheng works for Jiangling and has already shown his old age. Yan Cijing is very resistant to doubting him, but because of the old affairs of Meng Xiao, Yu Fangzhi has also been falsely imprisoned. What Yan Cijing should not touch is compassion.
