Criminal investigation in ancient times

Zhou Yin looked at him and said with a smile: "You have to remember to live a good life. I bought your life with all my wealth." After speaking, he picked up a brush and signed his name on the paper. .Zhang Rui lowered his hands weakly, feeling both angry and melancholy, he did not expect that he held such an important position in Zhou Yin's heart.

Wang Yun took the two letters over, looked at them, whistled, took out Zhou Yin's private seal from his arms, and pressed it. This seal must have been searched when the two of them were kidnapped.After pressing, he threw the seal on the ground, flicked the paper with his fingers and said, "Then we will meet later, my lord."

Guo Luwei let go of Zhang Rui, took the knife back, and followed Wang Yun out of the dungeon.

There was silence in the empty dungeon, only the crackling of torches could be heard, after a long time.Zhang Rui's legs went limp, and he fell to the ground. He stretched out his hands to touch his neck as if it was still cold, and looked up at Zhou Yin with a throbbing pain in his heart: "What will you do after signing that letter?"

Zhou Yin shook his head and closed his eyes: "What else can I do, just take one step at a time. You... don't you have anything to ask me?"

Zhang Rui: "...What are you asking?"

Zhou Yin: "The poison on my body."

Zhang Rui: "If you don't want to tell, I won't ask."

Zhou Yin sighed and said, "I should have told you earlier that the poison on my body was poisoned by my mother and concubine Yang before my father died."

When Zhang Rui recalled the case of Yang Xingbao, Zhou Yin heard that the last murderer was the father of the child, and he was silent and full of sadness... It was indeed his closest person who poisoned him. From the beginning, he always suspected that it was the emperor who did it. Yes, later I saw that he and the emperor were not incompatible, maybe there was something different, but I didn't expect that it was poisoned by his own mother!

Zhou Yin said quietly: "The Yang family entered the palace at sixteen. I was born at the age of 17. At that time, my father was already very old, but the current emperor is only three years younger than the Yang family. I don't know when the two had an affair. Of course, few people know about the personal relationship between these two people, otherwise the emperor would not be able to ascend the throne of God, and Yang is now firmly seated as the concubine. And I only knew about the personal relationship between the two after I was poisoned."

"Originally, the prince that my father preferred was the fifth brother. The fifth brother was calm and stable, and the appearance of the fifth brother was very similar to that of the father. The father always said that this son was like me, and he was very important to him. Leave it to him."

Zhang Rui: "The emperor and the five princes are both the sons of the empress dowager. There is not much difference in age between the two, so there is nothing wrong with choosing one of them."

Zhou Yin nodded: "That's right, the Queen Mother started to show off more and more, the harem dared to interfere in the court affairs, and was bewitched by the eunuchs around her to seize power. Of course, the father didn't want to when he knew it, so he hated the Queen Mother, and even hated it for a while." The current emperor and the fifth brother. Since the eighth and ninth brothers are twins, they couldn’t be the crown prince. At that time, I was getting older, and my literary talent and martial arts were not inferior to other princes, so my father began to train me."

Looking at him like this, Zhang Rui guessed that when he was young, he didn't know how to hide his sharpness, but he was pushed out by his mother and concubine to make a sacrifice.

Zhou Yin: "The older the father is, the more he values ​​power. If someone seizes his power, it is no different from killing him. For a while, he almost demoted the emperor and the fifth prince to common people."

Zhang Rui: "So serious!"

Zhou Yin nodded: "As I grew up, my father valued me more and more, and many ministers in the court voted for me. It's a pity that I didn't know how to restrain myself at that time. After a long time, I became a thorn in the empress dowager's side. During that time The more than ten assassinations I have experienced may be due to my fate, whether it is poisoning or back arrows, I have avoided it. But I did not expect to be murdered in the end, and the person who poisoned me was my concubine mother."

Zhang Rui walked up to him and knelt down, stretched his hand through the railing, and gently touched his cheek.Zhou Yin took his hand and put it on his lips and kissed him: "At first I didn't know that I was poisoned, but I felt weaker and weaker. When I was riding and shooting, I suddenly fell off my horse and passed out. The imperial doctor felt my pulse. They all said that I was too weak to practice riding and archery. The emperor was disappointed for a long time after learning about it, and then he began to pay attention to the fifth brother and the emperor again."

"During that time was the most painful time for me. I lay in bed every day drinking bitter soup, hoping for an early recovery of my body, and good luck made others. During this period, my father suddenly fell ill, and the emperor inherited the throne as the eldest son. , the Fifth Prince assisted him by his side. And I became an abandoned son.” In fact, Zhou Yin did not have any regrets or resentment for not being on the throne, because he never thought of being on the throne from the very beginning. , not only because of age, there are many factions in the imperial court, and the power in his hands is too small, it is not worth fighting for at all...

Zhang Rui: "Then when did you find out that you were poisoned?"

Zhou Yin: "Later, I got sicker and worse. I didn't even have the strength to get out of bed, and occasionally coughed up blood. The imperial doctor said that I had nagging disease. After a long time of treating it, it didn't work. I decided to send Zhanqing to other places. I looked for another doctor somewhere. The first time I went to an old doctor in Youzhou who treated the nagging disease. The old doctor looked at me for a few days and told me that I did not have the nagging disease, but it was a bit like poisoning. From then on, I I suspect that I was poisoned by someone. But I did not suspect that it was Yang who poisoned me. I always thought it was the Queen Mother. Later, I called He Xiangru from the He family in Liuzhou. Sure enough, he also said that he was poisoned, and he found out by accident It was Concubine Yang who poisoned you, and you will know about it afterwards."

Zhang Rui sighed: "Birds die for food. I'm afraid the concubine did this to prevent you from ascending the throne and leaving your mother and children. Among them, she may also love the current emperor."

Zhou Yin sneered: "There is no true love in the Tian family, but it is all for myself. Although I have never hated her, I will never forgive her for poisoning me. After I learned that she poisoned me, I never set foot on her." Half a step into her palace gate, the mother-child relationship has long been broken."

Zhang Rui leaned against the wooden railing and sat down: "Don't be sad, at least you still have me now, even if you die, I will go with you."

Zhou Yin nodded wearily, with a look of despair on his face.In the face of his loyalty to the country and the life of his lover, he made the most difficult choice, and the feeling of guilt for Da Zhou tortured him so much that he couldn't bear to live.The Huns wanted iron ore, presumably to forge weapons, and what they forged weapons for was Sima Zhao's heart.Zhou Yin agreed to lease the iron ore to them, which is to hand over the safety of Da Zhou to the enemy.But when the family and the country can't have both, he can't be selfless, he can only keep Zhang Rui cruelly, and think of other ways later.

Zhang Rui thought about how to destroy this letter, otherwise they would always be subject to Wang Yun.Just when he was thinking that the place where his hands touched suddenly became colder and colder, when he turned his head and looked, Zhou Yin's complexion turned blue, and he leaned against the railing and passed out.Zhang Rui was taken aback, and hurriedly grabbed his hand and said, "Zhou Yin! What's wrong with you, Zhou Yin?!"

Zhou Yin's face turned blue, his breathing was weak and his body was getting colder...

Zhang Rui panicked, stretched out his hand to push Zhou Yin and said, "Wake up! Wake up! Zhou Yin! Can you hear me?"

Pushed by him, Zhou Yin's body slipped and lay on his back, his limbs twitching slightly.Zhang Rui hurriedly stretched out his hand to press the other person, and after holding it for a long time, Zhou Yin's body twitched more and more violently, and black blood spilled from the corner of his mouth.

Zhang Rui suddenly remembered that it might be time for his poison to flare up these few days!what to do? ! ! "Zhou Yin, hold on, don't give up, don't give up for me, okay? I beg you!" He shouted loudly, "Is there anyone! Come and save him! I beg you!" Save him! If you don't save him, he will die!"

The voice echoed in the empty dungeon, but no one responded. "Cough, cough, cough..." Zhang Rui couldn't help coughing out, even if Wang Yun is here, it's better than no one!

The longer the poison on Zhou Yin's body is dragged on, the more damage it will do to the body. It would be better if the poisonous blood was released in time, but if the poisonous blood in the body is not released in time, the poison will soak into the internal organs, causing the body to gradually fail, and eventually the body becomes weak and dead. This is also the reason why Zhou Yin's body has become weaker and weaker over the years.

Zhang Rui's teeth were chattering, and he held Zhou Yin's hand tightly, but the hand in his hand was getting colder and colder, as if it had infected him, and his whole body was cold.Zhang Rui put his hand to his mouth "heh" and said warmly, "Zhou Yin...you are not allowed to die, do you hear me? I will not let you die, I will never allow you to die like this in front of me before!"

"Come here... is there anyone! Wang Yun! Come quickly, if Zhou Yin is dead, then the agreement you signed will have no effect!... Please save him!" "..." Silence, still silence, this silent silence made Zhang Rui go crazy, watching the people around him getting weaker and weaker, Zhang Rui burst into tears, opened his mouth and wailed loudly, "Zhou Yin, don't abandon me! I beg Please..." He was frightened, he had never been so afraid of death, it was the first time he understood what it means to be heartbroken, the pain made him unable to breathe, he couldn't breathe.

Zhang Rui didn't know how many times he yelled, hoarsely yelling, until finally he yelled blood like a cuckoo crying blood, and couldn't make a sound anymore... Turning his head and looking at the silent Zhou Yin, he laughed silently. Hei fainted.

***

"Where is the lord? Where is the lord..." Seeing many expressionless people in mourning clothes walking past him, Zhang Rui shouted hoarsely at them, but no one paid any attention to him.

The cold wind howled, the white sail was blown open, and a huge black coffin was carried out by eight people.Paper money is floating all over the sky.

Zhang Rui stared blankly at the coffin, and ran over to stop him. The person lying in the coffin was none other than Zhou Yin!Zhang Rui shouted: "No!... How could he die? How could he leave me behind." Two lines of tears flowed down his cheeks, and he covered his face with his hands. The scene in front of him all disappeared.

"Captain Zhang, what are you thinking?"

Zhang Rui turned around in shock and said, "Little Li? Why are you here?" Looking around, he actually returned to the previous Criminal Investigation Brigade. The room was still the one he was familiar with, and the computer on the table was still running Doudizhu. After shaking the mouse, cheerful music came from the computer.

Li Dongyang smiled shyly, revealing the dimples at the corners of his mouth: "Are you still playing? Didn't Team Zhang promise to have dinner with me at night?"

Zhang Rui got up in a panic and looked around. How did he return to modern times? !What about Zhou Yin?Why would I come back.Hastily pushed Li Dongyang away and ran out from the door.

Li Dongyang was surprised, "Where are you going, Captain Zhang? Are you still going to eat?"

Zhang Rui ran down the stairs, full of doubts in his heart, why did he return to modern times?Could it be that he died too?What does that coffin symbolize?Is Zhou Yin dead too?Suddenly, the feet were empty, and the whole person fell out. Instead of the expected pain, he fell into someone's arms.Looking up, it turned out to be his apprentice... Zhang Rui pushed him away by mistake.

His apprentice was surprised: "Why is the master here? Aren't you going to eat with Xiao Li?"

Zhang Rui felt that he was going crazy, why was he here?Why the fuck did I come back again!He must be dreaming, must be in a dream, he bit his arm hard, but he really didn't feel any pain.Zhang Rui raised his lips and smiled, and jumped off the balcony. Shouts of surprise came from his head, and the faces of Li Dongyang and his apprentice gradually distorted and disappeared...

Darkness, boundless darkness.

"Duk, duk, duk..." There was a sound of beating the wooden fish.

"Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva, practicing Prajna Paramita for a long time, sees that the five aggregates are all empty, and overcomes all hardships. Sariputra, form is not different from emptiness and form, form is emptiness and form, and the same is true for perception... "

Zhang Rui calmed down, the memories of the past and the present were spinning rapidly in his mind, which one was the real self, the modern criminal investigation captain, or the ancient magistrate.No matter which one...as long as Zhou Yin is there.Thinking to this point, my heart suddenly enlightened, my eyes suddenly lit up, and a white light entered my heart.

"The young master is awake, Doctor He, come and have a look, the young master is awake."

Opening his eyes slightly, he heard Uncle Han's voice in his ears, and a familiar room in front of him, Zhang Rui finally felt relieved.

He Ming came over in a hurry, raised Zhang Rui's arm and felt his pulse: "I'm so hurt, I need to rest. I'll bring the tonic later, and Uncle Han can feed it to the adults."

Uncle Han nodded, stretched out his hand to test Zhang Rui's forehead and said, "My head is not hot anymore, the young master has been sleeping for three or four days, and he was so burned that he talked nonsense, which scared the old slave to death!"

Zhang Rui opened his mouth, but couldn't make a sound, his throat was burning and hurt, and he raised his hand anxiously.

He Ming hurriedly said: "My lord, if you have a bad voice, please don't talk, everything is fine, my lord."

Everything is fine, the four words made Zhang Rui's eyes turn red and he almost shed tears.Uncle Han looked worried and turned his head to wipe his tears. Why is the young master so stubborn? Just like the master, it's a lifetime to find someone!Zhang Rui looked at Lao Han and couldn't help but also shed tears. He Ming shook his head and said, "It's good to cry, otherwise Uncle Han will be depressed and easy to get sick."

It took a while for the two to calm down, and made two gestures with their hands. He Ming roughly asked how they found the two of them.

He Mingdao: "Fu Dutong sent a thousand soldiers to Changxing County, and my father accompanied him, but when he broke into the house with the hidden guards, I saw you two passed out in the house, with neat clothes. No See no one else."

After hearing this, Zhang Rui asked He Ming for a pen and paper with a dignified and hoarse voice, and Uncle Han helped him to sit up.I started writing with a chopping board on my lap.Have you searched the secret passage?

He Ming was surprised and said: "Secret passages? What secret passages, the whole yard has been searched, but no secret passages have been found!"

Zhang Rui thought for a while: There is an entrance to a secret passage under the Kang in the bedroom.

He Ming shook his head and said, "I'm not sure about that, the soldiers may not have noticed the secret passage."

'Pass me the order, send someone to search for the secret passage as soon as possible, and see where the secret passage leads to? '

He Ming took the paper and nodded after reading it: "I will tell Du Tong about this and ask him to send troops to search for it."

Zhang Rui nods. After sitting for a while, she feels exhausted and dizzy. Uncle Han brought him the medicine and drank it, and helped her lie down and cover her with the quilt: "Young master hasn't recovered yet, so don't worry about other things beforehand." , take good care of your body."

Lying on the bed, Zhang Rui thought in a daze, it's good to be back.

Speaking of it, Zhou Yin is really fateful, if it is another hour at night, he will be powerless to recover.It was He Xiangru who gave him the injection and woke up before Zhang Rui.

After waking up, remembering the screams in his ears when he was poisoned, Zhou Yin felt that he was about to die, and his whole body was in pain, but because of Zhang Rui's shouts, he tried his best not to faint, but to stay awake, although he finally passed out , When I woke up, I found that I was actually rescued!It's just that he was as weak as usual, struggling to get up to see Zhang Rui accidentally fell to the ground and couldn't get up.

Hearing the sound, Zhan Qing rushed to help Zhou Yin to the bed, and told him about Zhang Rui's condition before Zhou Yin asked, and Zhou Yin felt relieved.

Zhan Qing: "When we went to look for the prince, we saw the two of you fainted in the courtyard, but the Huns who kidnapped you didn't see them, and the magistrate of Changxing County also disappeared."

Zhou Yin nodded and remembered the letter he had signed, rubbed his brows and gave a wry smile. Wang Yun's goal had been achieved, and he would definitely not stay in Changxing and wait to die.I don't know what monsters and ghosts are waiting for me. If I tell Brother Huang about this, how much can I believe him given his suspicious nature?

Zhou Yin said: "Have you found the two hidden guards who were tied up?"

Zhan Qing shook his head: "I haven't found the two, so I'm afraid it's a bad luck."

Zhou Yin lowered his fist annoyedly: "Have you searched under the secret passage?"

Zhan Qing was surprised: "Secret passage? What secret passage?"

Zhou Yin said: "There is a secret passage under the kang in the bedroom. This secret passage stretches for several miles. It must have been built by the Huns. I don't know what they built this secret passage for. I ordered someone to check it out."

Zhan Qing nodded, cupped his fists and retreated.

When soldiers were sent to check again, the house had been destroyed, and the entrance to the secret passage was blocked. After digging for a long time, they found that they could not enter the bottom. Intend.

At the beginning of November, Jiang Tongyan rushed to Tongzhou. After the two handed over, Zhang Rui was officially removed from the post of prefect of Tongzhou and promoted to a fourth-rank imperial envoy in charge of Jiangzhou salt merchants.

Jiang Tongyan is in his early fifties, but his body is very strong, his hair is black, and he looks like a man in his forties.He is one of the few honest and honest officials, and he has a good relationship with Zhang Yaozhi.Before leaving, he was entrusted by Zhang Yaozhi to bring him two paintings and a case book.

After Zhang Rui arrived in Tongzhou, he often exchanged letters with Mr. Zhang. Although they were thousands of miles apart, they knew roughly the same things that happened in the two places.Zhang Rui took what Jiang Tongyan gave him, thinking of those two old urchins in Kyoto, he couldn't help but curl his lips.

Zhang Rui: "Master Lao Jiang brought things from such a long distance."

Jiang Tongyan joked: "Before Yaozhi left, he reminded me ten thousand times not to forget, how could the old man not bring it to him. But the few strokes that I sent him so far away can still be handed out."

Zhang Rui smiled, hugged the painting and said: "The kindness of my mentor, even if I send goose feathers thousands of miles away, I will remember his kindness."

Jiang Tongyan stroked his beard and nodded appreciatively: "Sure enough, as the stubborn old man said, he has taken in a good apprentice. You solve the case quite like he did back then."

Zhang Rui hurriedly said: "It's still far behind my mentor."

Jiang Tongyan: "Be humble, when will you be sent to Jiangzhou to investigate the salt merchants? When will I leave? To be honest, this is not a good job."

Zhang Ruidao: "It has been delayed for such a long time, and we are going to leave tomorrow. As an official, it is natural to follow the emperor's order, even if it is a mountain of swords and a sea of ​​fire, it is obligatory."

"That's right, the old man will help you succeed immediately!"

After the two exchanged pleasantries for a while, Zhang Rui took his leave and left without disturbing his rest.Back at the inn, Zhou Yin was already waiting anxiously, seeing him coming back, he asked, "Then what did Jiang Tongyan tell you?"

Zhang Rui: "I didn't say anything, I just brought me two paintings and a case book by the master."

Zhou Yin took out the painting scroll from his arms, unfolded it and looked at it: "Mr. Zhang's paintings are really good. No wonder people in Beijing say that money is hard to find, but he is willing to give you two at once."

Zhang Rui walked in with a smile and said, "Then Mr. Jiang is coming to see you, why did you say you were sick?"

Zhou Yin said: "I don't want to deal with him, this old guy has too many thoughts, and it's too hard to talk to him."

Zhang Rui nodded, knowing that he and Zhou Yin had different identities, so what Jiang Tongyan said was naturally different, and there was no contradiction between him and him, so he didn't play tricks.It was different when it was Zhou Yin. Jiang Tongyan was first of all the emperor's subordinates who were all for the emperor's sake, so he would naturally ask Zhou Yin some things he didn't want to say.

Zhang Rui was walking towards the guest room and suddenly heard Lin Xiaoze shouting from behind: "Ruier! A letter from Beijing!"

"What did you say?"

Lin Xiaoze's eyes were red and he said, "Grandmother...grandmother passed away."

Zhang Rui was stunned for a while, and only thought of the old lady in Lin's mansion after a while, but she couldn't remember what she looked like, she just held his hand and said: "If you were born into a girl's family, you will be exactly like my Zhen'er..."

Lin Xiaoze choked and said: "Grandmother was not in good health when she left, I didn't expect it to be so fast...but I didn't serve her by her side." He covered his mouth and cried.Lin Xiaoze still has a deep affection for the old lady. Even though the old lady and Mrs. Lin disagree, she has never treated these grandsons harshly. Hearing that the old lady passed away, I was so sad that I wished I could grow wings and fly back to Kyoto.

Zhang Rui walked over to pat him on the back and said, "Don't be too sad, are you going back to the capital now?"

Lin Xiaoze nodded and said, "I'll go back. I'm not filial if I didn't serve grandma before she left. If I don't go back, I'll be ashamed to be a descendant."

Zhang Rui nodded. As a nephew, there is no need for him to go back. In addition, the Jiangzhou salt merchants should not be delayed any longer. Zhang Rui is not at ease if he is allowed to go back by himself. Xiang Ru looked at the two of them and hesitated to speak.

In the end it was decided, Zhang Rui Zhou Yin led a few entourages and took the two children to Jiangzhou, while He Ming followed Lin Xiaoze back to Kyoto.Zhang Ruichao sent several bodyguards given to him by the emperor to protect the two when they returned to Beijing.

Zhang Rui sat in the carriage and flipped through the case book that Zhang Yaozhi sent him. It contained the case of An Yunsheng and the case of Sun Zhan. At the end, he saw what Zhang Yaozhi wrote to him: "The two Whether this case is related to the old man is unknown, but what is certain is that the person behind the case of Sima Yun and the person behind the case of An Yunsheng may be involved. The person Luo Yu mentioned before his death It coincides with what Dong Zhuo said, and the old man feels that he has something to do with Prime Minister You Li Qian. You must be careful when you go to Jiangzhou. Offend him..."

After reading the case book, Zhang Rui sighed in his heart, his mentor really had a heart, and specially sorted out the two case files and sent them to him, for fear that he would suffer again.How could I meet such a dedicated teacher who helped him become an official and taught him how to be an official.

Zhou Yin looked at him and said, "Have you finished reading? Do you want to sigh for another half hour?"

Zhang Rui smiled and said, "What's the matter?"

Zhou Yin took out the file from his hand, and turned his head to his shoulder: "I didn't sleep well last night, and I read it for so long today, aren't you tired?"

As soon as he mentioned last night, Zhang Rui's face turned red in embarrassment, he rolled his eyes and muttered, "I don't know who insisted on messing around, and I didn't sleep for half a night."

Thinking of the feeling of last night, Zhou Yin couldn't help but her hands were dishonest, she slid to Zhang Rui's waist, and started to knead.

Zhang Rui hurriedly said: "Enough is enough, you, if you are presumptuous, I will kick you out of the carriage."

Zhou Yin turned over and pushed him onto the carriage, which was covered with blankets, but it was soft. "Kick me off the carriage?"

Zhang Rui turned his head and looked at the car door and whispered: "Don't...don't make trouble, let Zhanqing hear it later..."

Zhou Yin raised his eyebrows: "He heard it when he heard it, so what?"

Zhang Rui's face was as red and hot as a stove, but his body had just recovered and his strength was weak, so there was nothing he could do with him.

Zhou Yin buried his head on his neck and took a few deep breaths of air pressure and said in a low voice, "This king really wants...to do you."

Taking advantage of his inattention, Zhang Rui hooked his neck, turned over and pressed him over with a smile: "It's not sure who will do it."

Zhou Yin lay down and looked at the person riding on him with a smile, "Can your little brother stand up?"

Zhang Rui opened his mouth and reluctantly said: "Although it is not big...but it is a real gun..."

Zhou Yin couldn't help laughing out loud.It happened that Zhanqing opened the curtain of the car and said, "Is the prince staying overnight on the road today..." Looking at the two people in the carriage, their clothes were messy, Zhang Rui was on top, but his own prince was on the bottom? !

Zhan Qing swallowed and hurriedly withdrew and closed the car curtain.

Seeing his surprised gaze, Zhang Rui burst into laughter and lay rolling in the car clutching his stomach.Zhou Yin got up with a dark face and said, "Laugh..."

As the carriage drove out of Tongzhou City, Zhang Rui opened the curtain and looked at the city gate behind him. It was green in spring when he came, and snowy when he left. Although he only stayed here for a few months, he was very reluctant.I can't bear to bear the people here, and I can't bear to bear my mansion, even though it's easy to live in now.I can't bear to part with the scorched old pagoda tree in the courtyard... In response to that sentence, Tongzhou changes magistrates every year, but Tongzhou is no longer a place of bitter cold.Goodbye Tongzhou, I hope to come back to see it again in my lifetime.

The carriage was not traveling fast, the north wind blew and heavy snow fell on the road, and the stove inside the carriage was not too cold, so Zhang Rui leaned on the carriage and dozed off.

Zhou Yin took his hand and flipped through a storybook with the other hand.

"Woo~" Zhan Qing stopped the carriage, "My lord, the road ahead is too difficult, do you want to go into the town to rest?"

Zhou Yin put his finger to his mouth: "Shh." Looking back at Zhang Rui, he saw that he opened his eyes bewilderedly.

Zhang Rui: "Where did you go?"

Zhou Yin: "It's snowing, the road is difficult to walk, Zhan Qing asked if we go to the town to rest for a day, and make plans after the snow stops."

Zhang Rui nodded: "Go."

In the carriage behind, Uncle Han and He Xiangru led the two children Huzi and Qing Luo and sat in a large carriage.Huzi's body is almost raised, but he still can't work hard. The bamboo board on his body has not been removed, so it is difficult to move. Qing Luo always took the bamboo board to make fun of him, saying that he was wearing a suit of armor.

It was uncomfortable for the two of them not to quarrel for a moment.Uncle Han looked at the two children smiling, and remembered that when the young master was young, Wenwen was weak and not talkative. He had never bickered with others before. Compared with the two of them, he looked more like a girl. It was like a different person, not only did he lose his previous timidity, but he became more like an adult, with more thoughts than himself.

He Xiangru was not in a good mood like him, he was always thinking about his son and the boy from the Lin family, and he didn't know what the two children wanted to do.I always feel that the relationship between the two is unusual, and I don't know if I am thinking too much.

Qing Luo: "Do you know where we are going?

Huzi rolled his eyes: "Didn't your lord say to go to Jiangzhou?"

Qing Luo said: "Then do you know where Jiangzhou is?"

Huzi said: "I really don't know about it, I haven't been there either."

Qing Luo smiled: "Jiangzhou is in the south, and my master also went to the south, maybe I can find my master."

Huzi snorted: "The master who sells wine?"

Qing Luo pouted and said, "My master is not a wine seller, he just likes making wine."

Huzi: "Didn't you say that your master's wine costs 1000 taels of silver?"

Qing Luo blinked: "Yes, but Master is not a wine seller, and he doesn't give wine to others easily."

Huzi: "That's still a wine seller."

The two of you will quarrel when you say a word to me.

Uncle Han rubbed his head and said in his heart, it's better to be a taciturn child like the young master!These two little guys are annoying him to death.

Suddenly the carriage stopped, and the people in the carriage stopped arguing and turned their heads to look outside the carriage.Duan Xiaobai lifted the curtain of the car and said: "The adult's car in front stopped, something might have happened, I'll go and have a look, you guys wait for a while."

The people in the car nodded, Uncle Han came out to hold the reins, and Duan Xiaobai ran over.
