Achieve Rivers and Mountains - C213

After watching Qin Xiaoliu and Nangong Miao safely enter the red gates of the imperial palace, Dan Rong, Li Fan and Jing Jiu finally turned their horses around and headed back. The first time he had dealt with the princess, he had kidnapped her and chased after her. But this time, it had become a convoy. It was unknown if this was a mockery or a joke.

On the way back, Li Jun and Li Jun rode side by side, not saying a single word, and Jing Jiu Jiu followed closely behind, one thing weighing on her mind. Along the way, she kept feeling that someone was following them, and she wanted to call out to them, but seeing that they were not paying attention to her, she decided not to say anything.

It was not until they saw the carriage parked on the street that they smiled at each other. The carriage didn’t look any different. The only difference was that its curtain was too thick. It was not cold at the moment so they didn’t know if the people inside would suffocate to death. There just happened to be a fork in the road in front of them. The two of them seemed to have discussed it beforehand. Li Fan followed the road and didn’t look back. The carriage waited until the two of them had left before the wheels began to rumble and roll, following the route of the carriage. Jing Jiu looked at the two. He originally wanted to chase after Li Fan, but with a hum, he jumped off his horse and found a teahouse by the side of the road to sit down. Her appearance was extremely beautiful, attracting the attention of many people.

All along the way, they had felt that a carriage behind them seemed to be following them on purpose. The three of them did not speak to the guards, and instead, they had been on guard the entire way. However, nothing unexpected had happened. As they got closer to the palace, the carriage stopped following them. Was it a coincidence that they were parked so brazenly by the roadside? Or was it because they did not put them in their eyes at all?

As the horse carriage drew closer, the coachman looked at the road, which had long since disappeared from sight. He turned around and asked, “Should we chase or not?”

The curtain of the carriage revealed a small corner, from which came a soft shout, “How did you follow? You can even throw him away like this! ” His tone was filled with anger.

At the eaves of the houses on the side of the road, a vigorous figure jumped down. His movements were very agile, and the coachman didn’t even notice that someone had already jumped onto the roof of the car. The people in the carriage were stunned, the curtain was immediately lifted by the weapon, and from inside came soft cries and gasps filled with fear.

Dan Rong was out of breath as he jumped down from the carriage. He knocked on the carriage wall and said unhappily: “Come out.”

The driver lifted the curtain, and the green screen helped her down slowly.

Dan Rong took out some silver and handed it over to the driver before helplessly asking: “What are you guys doing?”

It turned out that ever since Qin Xiao had wanted to escort the princess back to the palace, he had urged Xue Yi to accompany them along the way. Xue Yi didn’t want to cause trouble for everyone. Lu Ping tried to persuade them, if they met with any more danger on the road, they could come back and ask for reinforcements. Xue Yi and Qin Xiao were currently in a rather awkward situation. How could Xue Yi not know what she was thinking? This little girl was really unable to hold herself back at the Rich Villa and also had feelings for the Manor Lord. That was the reason why she was making such a big excuse for herself. She immediately rejected him back. Who would have thought that this little girl would force her to join the army. After changing her clothes the next day, she wanted to go by herself in case she got into trouble. She had no choice but to wade in muddy water.

“Owner, your wife is afraid that you will be in danger, so she’s helping us from behind.” Even he was willing to believe in Green Screen’s lies.

“Manor lord — we’ve troubled you.” Xue Yi pulled the green screen and gave her a glance.

“Whatever, you guys wait here. I’ll go lead the horse.” There was nothing to talk about now. Although Xue Yi and Qin Xiao were at odds with each other recently, they definitely wouldn’t be so insensible. It seemed that he would have to discuss Lu Ping with her when he got back.

He took the two out and brought them to a jewelry store in his own home. This was his own business and had reliable subordinates, so he didn’t need to worry about leaving them behind. Besides, ever since Xue Yi followed him and took care of Yin Qie, she didn’t care about who she was and even insisted on staying alone. But since then, it was only natural for him to give her some jewelry as an apology. After giving orders to the shopkeeper, he went out to bring the horse back and meet up with Li Fan.

Green Screen looked at the dazzling jewelry, and excitedly pulled on her snow-white clothes to try them out one by one. In the past, she couldn’t help herself from looking at a lot of jewelry and silk. At that time, her father didn’t give her a lot of money, and she didn’t have much valuable jewelry either. The jewelry on the counter was filled to the brim, yet she didn’t have the heart to choose. It was probably because after her death, she no longer had the heart to dress up, and she even started to hate the tribulations brought about by her impeccable appearance.

Green Screen was flustered, and Xue Yi knew that she was very excited, so she let her choose. Green Screen pointed at the counter in the middle of one step, the shop assistant looked at the shopkeeper awkwardly. Looking at the snow robe, it was a jade-green golden phoenix rising into the sky. On top of the phoenix was a large round pearl, but that pearl was also considered priceless. The eyes and mouth were top-grade agate, and the tail was inlaid with a tannin. It had been cut from the wings of the kingfisher and from the twenty-eight feathers on its back, and because it had been cut while it was alive, its color was bright and never faded. It was even more beautiful under the sunlight.

Although the manor lord had instructed the two of them to pick whatever they wanted, this was still a treasure of the manor! If it was Lady Xue, then it wouldn’t be a big deal. After all, she was still the manor lord’s concubine. However, a little girl had taken away his storekeeper’s treasure — he really didn’t know how to handle this matter.

“Hey, hey, hey. What are you looking at?” Are you still not taking it out? ” Green Screen was getting impatient. After all, she was the personal servant of the manor lord. It was hard to say what would happen in the future.

Xue Yi’s face sank, lightly scolding: “Are you crazy!” She could clearly see her own identity, and she disliked the cruel cooking skills of Little Cui even more. Those innocent kingfisher birds had attracted the merciless abuse of humans only because of their beauty. How was this different from when he was at the Dew Pavilion? She pointed to a jade safety button and said, “Could you help me wrap it well?” She could not help that person who ran for her life every day. She could only hope that the safety button she had entrusted with her orders could bring her peace, allowing her to live a happy life. I’ll have to trouble you to wrap this hairpin and give it to her. ” As he spoke, he pointed to a silver hairpin that was also in the shape of a phoenix with a rising sun. Lu Ping was about to say something when Xue Yi glared back at her. She pulled down her face and said, “I think it’s time for you to calm down.” “Shopkeeper, please tell the manor lord that we should go to the opposite side of the tea house to have a cup of tea.” As he spoke, he pulled out a reluctant green screen.

The shopkeeper finally let out a sigh of relief. It looked like it wasn’t unreasonable that the manor lord was willing to bring a brothel girl into her house. This girl was very generous, reasonable, and rare to have such a devastatingly beautiful face. Such a face was simply not safe!

Green Screen’s body twisted as she was pulled out by Xue Yi. She wished that she could use her waist chop to separate her upper and lower body.

“The lord and the manor lord are merciful to us. Don’t you dare to act unscrupulously!” No matter how unruly Green Screen was, she was still a servant that had followed her for many years. Every time she saw that she was truly angry, she would still be afraid, so she could only lower her head and reluctantly walk towards the tea house with her.

As soon as the master and servant arrived at the entrance, a customer came out of the jewelry store. He brushed up against the two and whispered, “The manor lord has ordered for you to come with me.”

Xue Yi didn’t know what was going on, but while she was still wondering, Green Screen was already impatient. She pulled Xue Yi and said anxiously: “Don’t let the manor lord get anxious. Let’s go quickly.”

That person still had his head lowered, not saying a word as he brought them to the rarely seen Shunhua Workshop on North Street.

After Li Fan met up with him, he teased him for a while before returning to his own room. When Dan Rong returned to the shop, the two of them felt their hearts clench. The shopkeeper immediately explained that he was drinking tea from a waiter. He sat down and listened to the storekeeper’s report of what had just happened. He glanced at the piece of jade that was Jin Huang and ordered him to wrap it up. A jade comb was quietly lying next to the brush. For some reason, he suddenly thought of the shaved Qin Xiao. He picked up the comb and held it in his hand. It was as warm as jade. He put the comb into his sleeve, turned around and left.
