Pseudo master, she just wants to live

Chapter 230

As soon as they entered the city, Jiang took the children out of the carriage.

There are not many words and farewells, just a few exhortations as usual.

"Sister, really don't want to send you back?"

"No need, Mr. Fan is a good young man. Don't get into trouble with him all the time in the future. Many daughters in the capital miss him..."

"..."

It's obviously not a farewell, but it's better than a farewell.

Fang Yao could only endure the soreness at the tip of her nose, and kept nodding her head.

Yang Gao over there kept looking here, Jiang turned around to look at him, and waved at him again.

Yang Gao ignorantly laughed, and waved his hands too.

"Okay, Dabao, little sister, let's go."

Jiang picked up the younger sister in one hand and held the bundle in the other, while Dabao led her by the corner of her clothes, walking farther and farther away, and finally disappeared into the crowd.

Only then did Yang Gao realize that something was wrong, he quickly jumped off the platform, and hurried over with his big belly jumping up and down.

"Where is Aunt Jiang going? Why isn't she with us?"

Fang Yao said indifferently: "My sister's natal family is here, she can't go back and have a look when she comes back, why? You want to go too?"

Yang Gao opened his mouth, feeling that it was really inappropriate to go with him, touched his head embarrassingly, turned and walked back.

The convoy moved forward again and went straight to the inn.

Jiang Shi, who was hiding in the corner, watched the convoy gradually leave, and then led the child, came to the main road again, and walked in the opposite direction.

……

Just like in Changli, this time Fan Chen also found a not-so-big but good inn to book out.

As for the seventh princess, she refused to go to the post station no matter what, and insisted on sticking to them every step of the way.

Jiang and the child were away, Fang Yao was alone in a room.

Screens, wooden barrels for bathing, hot water, and incense.

After Fang Yao took a good hot bath, she felt extremely refreshed.

After getting up, she put on clean clothes and wrung out her hair again.

After finishing all this work, Fang Yao walked around in a lonely circle before turning out the booklet.

With no one around, she could finally open the booklet without any scruples and look through it carefully.

The booklet, which is always rolled into a roll, becomes extremely flat and wrinkle-free after being spread out randomly.

Fang Yao stroked it with her fingers a few times, and turned to the latest page.

Her eyes widened slightly.

There was no new picture in the booklet, but the lump of ink that came out at the end didn't lie dormant like before, but slowly spread around like dripping ink.

Fang Yao's heart was pounding, the ink Gu worm was so abnormal, there might be something abnormal in Changxi City.

Just why is there no new picture?
She couldn't help stretching out her hand, gently rubbing the flowing ink Gu worm with her fingertips, she felt a burning sensation.

There was finally a knock on the door.

Fang Yao quickly put away the booklet, tidied up her clothes, and got up to open the door.

As expected, it was Fan Chen outside.

She hurriedly let him in, closed the door carefully, and asked in a low voice: "Where is your hanging mirror, do you see anything? Is it in Cangling Temple?"

Fan Chen frowned: "Same as last time, the hanging mirror shows that there is something different nearby, but the exact location cannot be confirmed."

Fang Yao's expression was as expected.

She said somewhat dejectedly: "Those who shouldn't go to the city should go directly to Cangling Temple to have a look, maybe it's there, and it will delay another day."

However, Fan Chen handed her the things in his hand: "Who said that, I will go to the Duke's Mansion to ask about it tonight, and they have sent all the invitations."

Fang Yao opened the bag, and inside was a brand new set of servant clothes.

Then she raised her head in surprise and said, "You revealed your identity to them so quickly?"

Fan Chen shook his head: "They found it by themselves, that county matriarch is not easy..."

……

Guogong Mansion.

study.

Jiang Wenjie stood in front of the grand master's chair nervously.

A moment later, the servants of Gao's family came back from the yamen in a hurry, and said to the middle-aged man who was drinking tea leisurely on the grand master's chair, "Master, it's true, there is an inn in the city where a court official stayed today, and the registration sign It's the Minister of the Ministry of War!"

"what……"

Jiang Wenjie's heart skipped a beat, but a little disappointment appeared on his face.

When he returned to the city in the evening, he saw those convoys and observed them secretly.

One of the four-wheeled convoys was different from the other special vehicles. The horses pulling the carts were all war horses that were once qualified to be used by hussar generals in the barracks.

He keenly sensed that there must be someone with an unusual status in the convoy, so he immediately stopped his subordinates from yelling, and immediately sent people to wait at the yamen and post.

As long as they check in, the shopkeeper of the inn needs to report the roster of the occupants. Even if they can't be clear about who will be there, they can still guess with certainty.

He was very surprised by the arrival, but he did not expect that the person who can use such a good horse is just a small servant of the Ministry of War.

However, Ye Guogong, who was half leaning on the grand teacher's chair and drowsy, suddenly regained his energy and asked again: "Who are you talking about?"

The servant was startled, and replied: "Minister of the Ministry of War and comfort envoy, Fan Chen...Master Fan."

"good very good."

Ye Guogong seemed to be in a good mood, and quickly sent someone to send out invitations to Fan Chen.

Jiang Wenjie was a little surprised: "Master Guo, he is just..."

"You do not understand."

Ye Guogong interrupted him, "This kid has always been arrogant, and he once rejected me in public in the court...cough."

Jiang Wenjie didn't say a word. Ye Guogong prayed for the emperor to marry him on the main hall for Yiping county lord, but was rejected by the man in public. Everyone in the capital knew about it.

It was extremely uncomfortable for Ye Guogong to mention such an embarrassing matter in front of his future son-in-law.

But he couldn't bear it!

"Using the relationship of the national teacher, this kid is very arrogant. He insulted me in front of all civil and military officials. It is simply extremely hateful!"

Ye Guogong gritted his teeth and said, and then looked at Jiang Wenjie, "It just so happens that you have made great achievements in eradicating the snow monster in the past few days, the emperor and the national teacher have both spoken, and there will be a big reward at that time. .”

After hearing what the future father-in-law said, Jiang Wenjie hurriedly knelt down: "Don't worry, my lord, Jiang will definitely do his best to help with such a small matter!"

Ye Guogong looked at Jiang Wenjie's gentle and handsome face hiding ambition, and nodded with satisfaction: "At this time, the name of the Lord Huanguo is a bit unfamiliar."

Jiang Wenjie was overjoyed: "Father-in-law, please be respected by my son-in-law!"

……

night.

It was just after Maoshi, and it was completely dark.

Jiang led Dabao and Xiaomei to walk slowly on the street.

The Jiang family was gone, completely gone.

"Mom, I'm so tired, where are we going now..."

"Go find your father."

"Mom, does our father live here?"

"Well, he's well-developed as a soldier, how about we come to him and give him a surprise?"

"Okay! I want Daddy, I want Daddy!"

The little girl who had never seen her father's eyes lit up, she clapped her little hands and jumped up and down on the stone path, a pair of deerskin boots were covered with a thick layer of snow.

Jiang's nasal cavity was sore, her eyes were moist, and she hugged the little girl with her almost weak arms, and walked a few steps forward, when there was the faint sound of a carriage in the distance.

A familiar four-wheeled carriage suddenly stopped in front of the gate of the big house ahead.

She quickly hid in the shadows with the child in her arms.

over there.

Fang Yao, who was driving the carriage, put away her whip, and before she could get out of the carriage and call for the door, the curtain behind the carriage was lifted.

Fan Chen jumped out of the car first, followed by the completely new Seventh Princess.

"Come here, help Princess Ben out of the car."

The Seventh Princess stood still on the carriage board, calling to stop Fang Yao who was walking up the stone steps behind Fan Chen.

"We're here for something, so we'll go back to the post after we find someone to take care of us."

Fan Chen left a sentence without looking back, making Seventh Princess so angry that the top of her head was about to smoke.

Fang Yao's face was indifferent, but her heart was dark.

The two big stone lions in front of the Duke's Mansion are very majestic, and there are two bright red round lanterns hanging on both sides of the big plaque.

The snow that had just been cleared at the gate slowly deepened again. Fang Yao followed behind Fan Chen, and looked down to see many fresh footprints on the stone steps.

She turned her head and glanced, only their footprints came, and these were probably people from the house.

As a servant, although Fang Yao doesn't need to serve the savage Seventh Princess, she naturally has to do the work of driving a car and calling the door, which requires performance in front of people.

She rushed to the door in two or three steps, grabbed the iron ring carved with a lion's head on the door, and slapped the door hard.

After a while, the scarlet door opened a crack.

"you are……"

The gaze of the boy at the door swept across her specially made-up and bearded face, and landed directly on Fan Chen and Seventh Princess who were behind her.

Fan Chen was wearing a black thin jacket and long robe, with his flamboyant fox fur cape on the outside, and the Seventh Princess beside him was also dressed in an extremely luxurious way.

Fang Yao, who was dressed up as a servant, was quite imposing. She took out the invitation card and handed it to the person opposite, who hurriedly said: "It turns out to be Master Fan. My country's father-in-law has already rested. How about you guys come tomorrow?" Again……"

The corner of Fang Yao's mouth twitched, wasn't the invitation sent by the Duke himself?

Fan Chen said clearly: "It's a pity, we have to rush back to the capital tomorrow. Originally, we wanted to inform the Duke of Guo in advance about something important. If that's the case, let's discuss it in the palace another day."

"Wait."

A young and hoarse voice suddenly came from behind the door.

Fang Yao and Fan Chen at the door kept their expressions on the ground. The voice was really familiar, and it really was the man in the carriage.

The boy shouted "Uncle" inside, and opened the door carefully.

The man inside stepped forward quickly, and said: "It turns out to be Mr. Fan, who is greeted by someone who is far away."

Fan Chen narrowed his peach blossom eyes, showing a standard official smile.

However, Fang Yao in front of him stood there, staring blankly at the man in front of him, not moving for a while.

"Fang...what's the matter with you?"

Fan Chen turned his head, followed her gaze, and frowned slightly.

The man and the servant also looked over suspiciously.

Fang Yao quickly lowered her head and quickly followed Fan Chen.

The seventh princess snorted heavily beside her.

Suddenly, Princess Seven stopped, stared at the man and said, "Why do I think you look familiar?"
