Traveling through: The down-and-out beauty refuses to be cannon fodder

Chapter 52
On the contrary, it was Fang Yuanzhi who treated people with sincerity and treated each other as equals, which would impress Mrs. Chen deeply.

He was even more grateful for Fang Yuanzhi's complete trust in him.

If she went out without telling her parents, if the elopement scandal was reported, it would be a devastating blow to her boudoir reputation.

After arriving in the capital, they stayed in a house inside the Xu family's Xizhimen.

Mrs. Chen stretched her neck and looked at the door every day like looking forward to the stars and the moon.

Five days later, Xu Chun walked in with a man over forty years old.The man was dressed in satin trim, with a white face and no beard, a moderate figure, a calm face, and a pair of eyes that occasionally flashed.

The man didn't salute, and met Mrs. Chen's eyes, looking up and down.After a while, Mrs. Chen finally called out, "Are you Brother Hong?"

The man shed tears: "Mom, it's me..."

The mother and son cried together.

Fang Yuanzhi and Xu Chun exited the room and closed the door.

Fang Yuanzhi quietly let out a sigh of relief.

It seems that the middle-aged man who entered the room just now is the eunuch Huai En, the supervisor of ceremonies.It turns out that the well-known internal phase looks no different from ordinary people.

So far, her mission has been successfully completed.

Xu Chun took her a few steps to the center of the yard, and said with a smile, "Why, are you nervous too?"

Fang Yuanzhi pretended to be relaxed and clapped his hands and said, "Being entrusted by others is a matter of loyalty. Today's task has been successfully completed, and I will wait for the third uncle to fulfill his promise."

Xu Chun didn't speak, but just looked at Yuan Zhiqiao's smiling face under the sun.

For more than a month, although they didn't spend much time together alone, they met each other day and night and became acquainted with each other a lot.It's no longer like when we met before, the swords are on the verge of breaking out, and the embarrassment of having nothing to say is gone.

"I have to stay for a few more days before returning to Suzhou. It's too dangerous for you to go back alone. Wait for me to go together."

Fang Yuanzhi froze for a moment, then nodded.

"If you're bored these days, you can go out for a stroll. I'll send Huaian to you. Let him help you with anything."

Fang Yuanzhi thought that every time Huai'an saw him, he was like a mouse seeing a cat, and couldn't help laughing: "Forget it. I'm fine, I'm afraid Huai'an will be scared to death."

As he spoke, Fang Yuanzhi glanced at Xu Chun's eyebrows.

When he shaved his eyebrows back then, Xu Chun didn't take it very seriously, it seems that he is really relieved.

She also thought of the toads and snakes she had thrown on his bed, like a stone sinking into the ocean, and she didn't know what happened.

She couldn't help asking: "Third Uncle, before you left Suzhou, did you find anything special in the room?"

Xu Chun raised his eyebrows: "What's so special?"

"Uh, like rats, snakes?"

Xu Chun grabbed her arm: "It really is you, don't call yourself!"

While speaking, there was a little smirk in his eyes.

How could Fang Yuanzhi admit it: "It's not me, it's not me, I heard people say that there are snakes and toads in your room, just guessing..."

Xu Chun's face was so close that their noses were almost touching: "You guessed right, I caught the toad and the snake and threw it away. No one knew about it, so why do you know?"

The breath was tangled, and the smell of incense from Xu Chun's body was also transmitted. Fang Yuanzhi's heart was pounding, and his face couldn't help but flush.

At this moment, she was like a child who had done bad things and was exposed, feeling ashamed and annoyed.

Seeing Fang Yuanzhi blushing and shy, Xu Chunxiao felt a surge in her heart, thinking she was very cute, and couldn't turn her eyes away for a long time.

After the door of the room opened with a creak, the two regained their senses, let go of their hands quickly, and moved a little further away.

Wynn invited Xu Chun and Fang Yuanzhi into the room.

"Wynn is grateful to Mr. Xu for his great help. He found his old mother for him, and sent him to the capital all the way. Such kindness, our family will remember it in our hearts, and we will definitely repay it in the future."

"Eunuch Huai is too polite. This matter was originally a coincidence, and Xu Chun dare not take credit for it!"

Wynn smiled.Ever since he became the eunuch in charge of ceremonies, there have been a lot of fawning and flattering people.As long as you don't violate the rules, it's not difficult to do something convenient to repay your kindness occasionally.

"Since Mr. Xu has won the Jinshi, why doesn't he become an official?" Wynn's eyes flashed.

"Back to my father-in-law, there is no one to take care of the general affairs of the Xu family, and Xu Chun has no intention of becoming an official. He likes to be a wild crane in the clouds and carefree."

Wynn laughed twice.If you like to be a wild crane, you won't come to flatter yourself.

Since he didn't say it, let's watch it later.

Wynn cast his eyes on Fang Yuanzhi and asked, "Who is this?"

"Minister Fang Yuanzhi, I have met Eunuch Huai." Fang Yuanzhi saluted generously.

Mrs. Chen added: "He is the great-granddaughter of General Fang Zheng back then, and his grandfather is Nan He Hou Fangying. Now she is a medical girl with exquisite medical skills."

Wynn nodded and said nothing more.From Hou Men to the doctor's daughter, it seems that they also encountered misfortune.

"Today, Wynn won't bother me much. I will serve my old mother back first. I will invite the two of you to come over to talk in the future."

"Eunuch Huai is too polite."

Xu Chun and Fang Yuanzhi sent Huai En and Mrs. Chen to the gate.There is a carriage waiting outside the gate. The carriage is light and easy. It seems that Wynn is also a low-key person.

In the next few days, Xu Chun went out early and returned late, Fang Yuanzhi changed into men's clothing and dragged Huai'an, who was frowning, to wander around.

The capital is prosperous, and it gathers treasures from all over the country, including books and so on.Fang Yuanzhi bought a lot of medical books, poisons and other books.

After visiting the bookstore that day, she saw a Dalongshan Temple next to her, so she asked Huai'an to go back with the books first, and went to the temple to burn incense.

She was originally an atheist, but since she traveled to this world, she began to believe in ghosts and gods.

Every time I encounter a temple, I go to burn incense and pray for it, just to ask for peace of mind.

After entering the temple, I kowtowed and burned incense all the way. By the time I finished worshiping the Bodhisattva Hall in the innermost part of the temple, the sun was already westward.

Fang Yuanzhi was about to go out, but heard some loud and shouting sounds.She knew that this was probably because she met a nobleman and went out on a trip.

This is also the case in Qiantang, when the nobles travel, there will be servants to maintain order first.But the nobles will not worship all the Bodhisattvas like her, and leave after a general idea.

She simply waited in the Bodhisattva hall.

After waiting boredly for more than half an hour, Fang Yuanzhi felt that the nobles should have left, so he went outside.

Walking along the way, the monastery where there were still people in twos and threes was now empty.

Fang Yuanzhi felt slightly uneasy.But if you don't leave, it will be dark, and the Dalongshan Temple will be closed, and you have to climb over the wall to get out.

After walking for a while, she heard the sound of swords clashing.Someone else shouted: "There are assassins!"

Fang Yuanzhi dodged and hid in the hall, pierced the window paper and looked out.

A man and a woman were escorted by several bloody guards into the front of the hall where she was.

Following them were four or five assassins wearing black clothes, black face scarves and holding large knives.

Fang Yuanzhi secretly groaned, she was also wearing a black suit today, but with red skirts rolled around an inch wide, and a red headband was tied on her head.

If he is also treated as an assassin, isn't it game over?
