Chapter 99 Letter (seeking subscription please monthly ticket)
Before the three of Qingyan walked out of the long wall of the garrison mansion, they were stopped by the people behind.

"Girl! Please stay! The three girls in front please stay!"

It's a man's voice.

The three of Qingyan looked at each other, and then looked at the empty street. It seemed that there were only three of them on the street now.

He stopped and looked back, only to see a middle-aged man wearing a crescent-colored shirt and wearing a scarf on his head, walking towards them quickly.

Seeing the three of them stop, they quickened their pace even more.

When he came to the front, the man stood still and bowed his hands to them, "Hello, three girls."

Then he turned to Qingyan and said, "Excuse me, but Miss Xue?"

Qingyan sized him up and saw that the other party was not malicious, she nodded and said: "My surname is indeed Xue, may I ask who you are?"

The man smiled and said, "I've met Miss Xue. I'm Wang Lun, the long history of the garrison mansion. Before the third son left, he entrusted me with a letter, asking me to hand it over to Miss Xue."

After a pause, he continued: "Although the third son left a letter, he didn't tell Miss Xue's address, he just told me to wait in the Garrison Mansion, and Miss Xue will come to the door on her own initiative.

But the girl has never been to the Garrison Mansion in the past three days, so she has never found a chance.

Fortunately, I just came out to ask the guard. The guard said that there were three girls looking for the third son just now, otherwise he might miss it again. "

Qingyan was taken aback for a moment, she also thought that Li Hao left in a hurry because of something urgent, and one more thing, with their friendship, it is true that they are not deep enough to tell everything, so they don't think there is anything wrong.

Unexpectedly, the other party left a special letter, and was very thoughtful, and did not casually mention the address of the yard.

Maybe he was afraid of being misunderstood about their relationship, so he didn't say the address.

Fortunately, she came today. If she didn't come, a few days later, it is estimated that this letter would never be delivered.

Qingyan took the letter from Wang Lun with both hands. There was an envelope on the outside of the letter, which was sealed with wax. It seemed that she didn't want others to see the contents.

Qingyan opened the letter without being on the street, and put it directly into her satchel, planning to read it when she got home.

Wang Lun breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that she had put away the letter. He had fulfilled the third son's entrustment.

At the same time, she also instructed Qingyan: "If the girl wants to reply to the third son, you can come to the garrison mansion to find me, and just tell the guard at the door your name, the guards all know her.

I usually stay in the mansion and rarely go out. Even if I am away occasionally, I will come back soon. "

Qingyan nodded and bowed towards the other party, "Thank you Wang Changshi."

She didn't know what etiquette was used in this dynasty, so she didn't dare to do the blessing ceremony of squatting and sideways that was shown on TV. She only knew that this bow should be universal.

Wang Lun hurriedly turned to avoid it, "Girl, you don't need to be so polite. Since the letter has been delivered, I will go back. If you have other things, you can come to the defense mansion to find me."

Qingyan said again: "Thank you Wang Changshi."

Wang Lun waved his hands while stepping back, "No thanks, no thanks, Miss Xue will meet later."

After speaking, he turned around and walked quickly towards the Garrison Mansion.

Da Ya and Lan Hua looked at his back curiously, but didn't say anything, they just had never seen such a gentle person, so they were a little curious.

Qingyan took out the letter again, the envelope was blank, and there was no name or anything written on it.

She groped the paper carefully, and felt that later generations seemed to have misunderstood the ancient papermaking technology. Although this paper is not as smooth as modern paper, it does not mean that all of them are soft rice paper. At least the paper of this envelope is rough. , but it is stiff, it is estimated that it is specially used for envelopes.

Just like when they bought cakes at the pastry shop, they didn't have the kind of oil paper to wrap the cakes. It was also very delicate, and it wouldn't be easy to break and lose paper scraps.

"Sister Xue, this is a letter from Mr. Li. Why is there no words on it?"

Lan Hua asked curiously.

Qingyan shook the envelope, and replied: "The letter paper is inside, and the outer layer is the envelope. Well, this is a wax seal, to prevent others from peeking."

"But isn't this paper torn? What's the use of having a wax seal?"

Da Ya also asked, she saw that the paper seal was not strong at all, it might be torn if it was torn hard.

Qingyan smiled and said: "This is to guard against gentlemen but not villains. You think that even if there is a lock in the house, the thief can still climb over the wall and get in, but it can only block most polite people."

The two little girls nodded suddenly.

Qingyan squeezed the letter in her hands, and now she didn't want to stay outside anymore, she wanted to go back and open the letter, and take a look at the contents, but she didn't know what Li Hao wrote in it?
Seeing her speeding up, the two of Lan Hua knew that they must be in a hurry to go back to read the letter, so they also speeded up their pace together.

As a result, as soon as they walked to the cross street in the middle of the city, they encountered a group of people and horses, about 80 to [-] people, five of whom were on horseback and there was a carriage among them, and the others were walking.

This group of people wore uniform uniforms and weapons on their waists, obviously they were also officers and soldiers.

It's just that their clothes are different from those of the Hancheng guards in color and style, and their bodies are also dusty, presumably they came from afar.

This street is much more lively than West Street, because this is the central location, no matter which direction you go, you have to pass by here, and there are quite a lot of people.

The three of Qingyan stood by the roadside with the other city people, watched them pass by, and took a closer look at these people along the way.

I saw that there were still some food and grass on the carriage. Although there were not many left, the stack of empty sacks on it seemed to be a lot before I came here. I don’t know where they came from. The journey should be not close.

Although the soldiers walked a little crookedly, they were a bit procrastinated. They didn't have the mighty and domineering look of the soldiers in the city at all. Presumably they suffered a lot along the way.

Even the ones on the horses were skinny, and their clothes were neater than those of the infantry. They should be some young generals.

Although they were in distress, they were not injured, which made Qing Yan feel relieved.

In this case, at least it means that he did not come down from the battlefield, otherwise, it means that the war is not far from here.

She didn't want him to continue fleeing just after he found a place for everyone in Yangjiaping to settle down.

If that's the case, it's better to stay in the original village, at least they have lived there for a long time and are more familiar with them, and the Li family will take care of them here, and it would be too difficult to go to a place where they are not familiar. They are gone.
