Does the villain stepmother have a headache again today!

"...So, taking the waterway from the secret road in Blind Mountain is equivalent to taking a shortcut, passing through the most dangerous road in the hinterland of Xingtu Mountain, and directly arriving near the nearest official road to Beijing. This This official road can lead directly to Beijing."

After Rong Lianqu finished speaking, Ruan Tao shook his head and sighed, "The blind mountain banditry that troubles the court every day turns out to be right under his nose. Any action he wants to take against blind mountain can be known in advance by blind mountain. The source is wrong. ”

People in Blind Mountain want to know the news faster than people in the imperial court; the extra month or two on the road is enough to deal with the banditry on the mountain.

If something exists, it has a reason for its existence.

Blind Mountain is simply the escape route many people leave to themselves...

These are things for later.

Rong Lianqu not only safely passed Blind Mountain and Xingtu Mountain this time, but he was also able to appear in Beijing at this time because of the time when he took root at the border.

Only Rong Lianqu's familiarity with the border terrain and patrol intervals, the Xiqi, Qiang and Rong armies, and the activities and habits of the border people, as well as the various deserts, roads, and narrow paths, could he be found. Go to him and save people.

He gave Qiang Rong that knife to let the people in Blind Mountain escape. Only then did this man later be willing to take risks for Rong Lianqu, and even arranged for another person to punt the boat for him...

Rong Lianqu's protagonist aura is still there, and this protagonist aura is still strongly affecting and infecting the people around her. The people around her continue to filter "her", so that "she" can arrive here smoothly. , in front of her.

Therefore, even though she already has the halo of a heroine, Rong Lianqu's aura of the protagonist not only does not fade away, but becomes more profound and obvious. Whether it was risking death to retrieve Fu Boyun's head at the border, a thrilling escape with the blind mountain bandits under the Qiangya cavalry, or that life-saving knife, looking at each other in the wind and sand...

Every frame is a masterpiece.

This kind of handwriting makes the character infinitely plump and standing...

This kind of fullness and three-dimensionality covers most of the characters, and it is rare to find one among living people who can complement it.

In the end, which link is the problem...

Ruan Tao looked at "her" in a daze.

Rong Lianqu also continued, "I didn't hit the road rashly. I spent a day inquiring about the local area, and finally caught a ride on a caravan's carriage. They had a batch of goods that needed to be delivered to Beijing before Laba, so the journey along the way was It can only be compressed, not delayed. These businessmen travel on this official road all year round and have plans to deal with unexpected situations such as heavy snow and heavy rain. It is the safest way to follow them to Beijing, so I applied for a job as a bodyguard and handyman. Work (be sure to remember to come back here to see it), and then follow this caravan to Beijing..."

Ruan Tao: "..."

There is probably no job in the world that Rong Lianqu cannot apply for.

There is no job that Rong Lianqu cannot do.

Rong Lianqu not only has the aura of the protagonist, but also the aura of a worker, and the aura of clearing the map...

Ruan Tao looked at "her", and "she" also happened to look towards her.

Ruan Tao poured tea and said softly, "I asked you to be Qingliu, are you really so desperate for your life? If you are not the Qiang Rong, you can't pass the blind mountain. People's luck will not always be the same. So good, if the halo on his body falls off, Fu Boyun will die..."

Rong Lianqu looked at her in surprise.

Ruan Tao pushed the tea towards "her" with his fingertips, "You shouldn't come back..."

——I do what I have to do.

Ruan Tao continued, "Fu Boyun's death is not that simple..."

——Fu Boyun led the soldiers at the border to fight in a bloody battle, but the sky behind him was filthy. Those who devoted themselves to the country died tragically, while those who collaborated with the enemy and betrayed the country lived happily.

Ruan Tao retracted his fingertips, the heat in the tea cup rose up, and white mist and halo separated a world between the two.

Ruan Tao said softly, "But if you don't come back, I don't seem to be able to find anyone I can trust..."

——Fu Boyun is no longer there, Qu Shaobai has also been sent as an envoy, Xu Jinan has left the capital, and there is only one Zeng Meiyun in the capital.

After looking at each other for a long time, Rong Lianqu's voice was calm and gentle, passing through the white mist and halo in front of his eyes, "Oh, these two bowls of Yangchun noodles are already eaten..."

Ruan Tao smiled.

"How to do?"

The white mist and halo gradually dissipated, revealing the elegant and handsome face with exquisite features.

Ruan Tao also suddenly remembered that when they were in Huicheng, Rong Lianqu did what she said.

She can say eight points, Rong Lianqu can do nine points.

"She" has sympathy for each other, and they also have a common understanding.

Compared to Qu Shaobai, Xu Jinan and Zeng Meiyun, Rong Lianqu actually had a better understanding with her.

This kind of tacit understanding also comes from knowing the roots.

Ruan Tao picked up the tea cup and said, "You have just arrived in Beijing. This matter needs to be discussed in the long term. This matter cannot be urgent. Let me think about it for one more night. I still have some details to think about clearly."

Rong Lianqu wanted to speak, but Ruan Tao had already picked up the teacup and took a sip.

Rong Lianqu swallowed back what he wanted to say and only responded, "...oh"

What Ruan Tao holds in his hand is the cup he drank from just now...

He didn't have time to stop it just now, so it's best not to bring it up now.

Sure enough, he didn't mention it. On the other side, Ruan Tao slowly put down the tea cup and asked intentionally, "If someone in the house asks, where have you been during this time..."

After Ruan Tao finished speaking, he came closer and reminded, "This house belonged to the Marquis of Ping'an earlier. The Marquis of Ping'an left the capital. There are many informants in this house."

Rong Lianqu understood, "My aunt..."

Ruan Tao calmly said, "Change to another relative."

Rong Lianqu picked it up at his fingertips, "My eldest aunt is seriously ill, and her family insisted on seeing me by name. They sent me several letters one after another urging me to go on the road quickly, so I had no choice but to ask for leave from my wife. On the way back, I heard that my wife brought me After the old lady and the young masters and young ladies from the mansion came to Beijing, they went directly to the capital..."

As expected, he was able to trick a caravan into entering the capital as a guard and handyman.

When it comes to telling lies, the lies are confused with the truth, and there is no stammering at all.

Ruan Tao finally reminded, "Remember to ask Ruan Zhao to arrange a separate room for you."

Again, a separate room?

Rong Lianqu looked at her strangely.

Ruan Tao didn't want to expose it, "I'm afraid you'll give Ruan Zhao and the others another croton..."

Rong Lianqu:! ! !

Ruan Taoye has already stood up.

Looking at her back and saying "I'm afraid you'll give Ruan Zhao and the others another croton", Rong Lianqu stretched out his hand and scratched his head.

How come you know everything?

Ruan Tao just turned around and said, "It's good that you know."

Rong Lianqu: "..."

*

Under the warm welcome of Ruan and Zhao, Rong Lianqu finally returned to his house.

Although this is not a border pass, nor is it the Nanping Houfu in Huicheng, it seems that the people around are familiar people, and the surroundings seem to have changed back to a familiar look...

It was as if he had never left in the past six months.

This sense of belonging is both familiar and strange.

After Aqu's death, he felt a sense of belonging for the first time...

He took off his clothes, lay down, and blew out the oil lamp in the room. The surroundings were so dark that only the dim light from the eaves remained.

——Uncle, I’m coughing to death! What if I cough to death? When my mother died, she entrusted me to your care.

——Hehe, that’s it! Give me your name. From today on, my name is Aqu!

——Uncle, go quickly...go, go...

Rong Lianqu slowly closed his eyes.

After a long time, the halo circulated.

The figure with his hands behind his back, looking at him with a smile, finally gradually walked away.

He wanted to call her.

But she had waved him goodbye.

In the mist, he could no longer move forward, nor could he catch up with the retreating figure in front of him.

After a long time, the fog dissipated, leaving only the steam rising from two bowls of Yangchun noodles and a cup of tea, as well as a faint white mist.

——If you don’t come back, I can’t seem to find anyone I can trust.

——Change to a relative.

——I’m afraid you’ll give Ruan Zhao and the others another croton...

*

When I woke up the next day, it was already bright.

Rong Lianqu realized that he hadn't had such a good sleep for a long time.

Ruan Zhao and others probably saw that he just returned to Beijing yesterday and did not ask him to work today.

In fact, when he was asked to work, he didn't know whether the job this time was that of a coachman or a guard.

I simply washed up and went out. The surroundings were strange and quiet, and I didn’t know where I had gone.

Finally, I followed the sound to the garden and saw Ruan Zhao lecturing in a conspicuous place in the garden. There were densely packed guards from the Hou Mansion below.

This scene is not unfamiliar.

Ruan Zhao held a booklet in his hand and preached, "Listen carefully. From today on, all the guards, servants, stewards, maids, coachmen, and handymen in the mansion must follow the rules." When doing things, pay attention to clear rewards and punishments, so everyone should cheer up for me, we as guards can't let those young boys compete!"

Rong Lianqu lowered his eyebrows and smiled softly.
