Maid's Survival Manual

Chapter 201
Chen Yun was annoyed in his heart, but his face was still gentle and refined, and he asked Bai E: "According to your opinion, what should I do? Should I drive all night without stopping, so that I can go to Beijing one day earlier?"

Bai E paused for a moment, and said: "The little one knows that the uncle's thoughts on saving the sixth master are faster than the arrow that leaves the string."

That's right, the honest man put his hat down and put Chen Yun on a pedestal.Chen Yun couldn't laugh or cry, he knew that Bai E had fooled him today.He passed Manman with a faint smile, and said, "I'm on the road all night. It's okay for me to be a big man, but your grandma is delicate and frail. I'm afraid she can't bear the pain of running around. When your sixth master knows, what should I do?" Blame me for not being considerate..."

Bai'e looked at Manman eagerly, his heart was self-evident.

Manman also answered: "I can only look forward to seeing Liu Ye even more. What is this suffering compared to him?"

Seeing their master and servant singing together, Chen Yun had nothing to say, and thought, since you are not afraid of hardship, why should I take care of you in every possible way.Okay, this is what you said yourself, don't complain to me again when the time comes.

Chen Yun smiled slightly, and said: "Since the sixth sibling has no objection, then let's set off immediately." He stood up, not without sarcasm, and said: "After all, taking a car is a bit slower. If the sixth sibling can ride a horse, I'm afraid the speed will be faster than this." Faster. If you gallop fast, you will be able to reach the capital in only three days and nights, and then you master and servant will not have to worry about this needlessly."

He wanted to see if the omnipotent Sumanman could even ride a horse.

Manman gritted her teeth and said, "To tell you the truth, I do know how to ride a horse."

"Ah—" Manman opened his mouth, and everyone in the room was stunned.Manman said calmly and slowly: "It's just that I've been neglected for many years, and I'm not very good at riding. I don't know if this will work..."

She was telling the truth. It was true that she hadn't ridden for many years. Back then, she was riding the most honest horse that had been tamed. The speed was not fast, and she could barely run.

Now... She has been pampered and pampered for the past few years, and her body is so fragile that she really can't guarantee that she can ride a horse neatly.If one accidentally fell off the horse, don't count on this trip to the capital.

Chen Yun was embarrassed and said: "This... it's better to be more cautious in everything." Just keep the curse in your heart, he is an honest gentleman, and he will never say it on the bright side.

When Bai E heard that Manman could ride a horse, joy flashed in his eyes, and when he heard Manman say that she was not good at riding horses, disappointment flashed in his eyes instantly.Riding a horse is no joke, if you are not careful, it will be a matter of your life and wealth, and he can't bear such a big burden for Grandma Six to take risks.

Chen Yun looked at Bai E modestly and humbly, meaning what do you think should be done?
Bai E scratched his head and said, "Then, little one, little one..." He looked at Si Ling and Si Long, if either of them could ride a horse, it would be great, and he could take Grandma Six.

Si Ling and Si Long's faces were a little pale, and they shook their heads hastily: "Don't look at us, we are afraid of seeing horses, let alone riding them, and we have never had a chance to learn..."

Here comes the problem, even if Grandma Six can ride on her own, it's useless if Si Ling and Si Long don't know how to ride. Grandma Six can't even have a maid to serve her.

Bai Eya gritted his heart, in short, in order to prevent the uncle from using various names to ruin Grandma Six's reputation, he would do whatever he wanted.He said: "The little one is willing to guarantee with his life that he must protect grandma to reach the capital safely. I implore the uncle to go ahead..."

In short, just drive yourself away.

Chen Yun looked down at Bai E, angrily, and said: "You are really commendable for your loyalty, but it is not advisable for you to be brave and foolish. If I entrust you with the wealth and life of your sixth grandma, I would not like it." Take responsibility. How about this, let's delay for a day and leave the day after tomorrow. In the past two days, I will go to the Weiyuan Escort Bureau to find one or two female bodyguards..."

Chen Yun ordered Bai Yang to bring back the salute that he had brought back, Si Long took advantage of the fact that there was no one else, and whispered to Man Man: "This Bai E usually looks stupid, but he can pick things up at critical moments. loyalty."

Manman nodded and smiled, and said: "It also made him anxious, you didn't see the cold sweat on his forehead. It's hard for him in this cold day, you go and give him two more quilts, you don't have to spend the whole night Stay close, let him go back and rest when it's almost time."

Si Long smiled and said, "You don't need grandma to ask, Si Ling sent him the quilt early in the morning."

Manman sighed and said, "It's my fault. I didn't think deeply about it." She only thought about walking and sitting upright, not afraid of what others would say, so when Chen Yun proposed to address her as husband and wife, she didn't think about it. Think deeply.She believed that Chen Yun could not do such a nasty thing, and she also believed that she was not the kind of ignorant and ignorant person who would be fooled as soon as someone tricked her.

But she still underestimated the importance of women's reputation in this era.

If it wasn't for Bai E's insistence, this matter would definitely be a knot between her and Chen Yunzheng in the future.

Thinking of Chen Yunzheng, Manman couldn't help feeling sad.I don't know how he is doing now, will he be punished, will he suffer?Will you be beaten, scolded and bullied in prison?Even if she made it to the capital after untold hardships, so what?Apart from meeting him once and giving him some comfort, she didn't know what else to do for him.

It is precisely because of this that Manman has to suspect the purpose of Master Chen's insistence on letting her enter Beijing at this time.

No need to guess, they knew that they were looking for an excuse to make Chen Yunzheng divorce her, so Chen Yun's bad plan was just a matter of adding fuel to the flames and pushing the boat along the way.Destroying her reputation is the most direct and effective method. With Chen Yunzheng's temperament, it is impossible for him to tolerate such a thing happening again.

The relationship between him and her can't stand such torment again and again.

Manman understands very well that this is just a side dish. Next, Chen Yun will definitely have a fatal blow. In short, this time they will definitely come up with a safe and convincing excuse to leave Chen Yunzheng voluntarily. of.

If this was the doomed ending, she only hoped that, within her power, Chen Yunzheng would not be harmed more.

Chen Yun didn't waste time intentionally. The next day, he found two female escorts from Weiyuan Escort Bureau. They were both good horseback riders and capable. They stayed by Manman's side all the time, which solved her worries.

A group of people hurried on and went straight to the capital.All kinds of things on the way, without repeating them one by one, five days later, the group arrived in the capital.

Chen Yun was used to traveling all over the world, but he came to the capital once again, and he seemed familiar with the way.He first rented a small courtyard, housed Manman, Si Ling, and Si Long, and then sent the two female bodyguards back. Then he said to Manman: "You guys take a rest first, and I will take care of it. I will let you know when there is news.”

Manman agreed not to mention it, she, Si Ling, and Si Long had a short rest, and then called Bai E over.Manman said straight to the point: "I'm very worried about Liu Ye, but I don't know the place well, and it's inconvenient for me to go in and out. It can be said that my eyes are darkened, and I don't know what's going on, so I have to leave everything to you. Now you go to the place where Liu Ye used to study to find out the news, the more detailed the better..."

Bai E went to take orders, ran for nearly a day, and reported to Man Man one by one when he came back, what he said was almost the same as what Master Chen said.The academy has been sealed off, guarded by dozens of soldiers, and anyone who dares to approach will be strictly interrogated.

He just simply asked the people nearby.No one knew who Chen Yunzheng was, they only knew that two months ago the imperial court sent troops to arrest hundreds of scholars awaiting examinations.

When asked if anyone knew these scholars, everyone shook their heads and walked away avoiding it.To get acquainted, you need to avoid suspicion, who would dare to take the initiative to join in?Although Emperor Xining did not issue a decree to behead these disciples, he has never issued an edict of forgiveness. Life and death are uncertain, so where is the future?
There is no way to find an ally.

Manman told Bai E to investigate slowly, while waiting for news from Chen Yun.She herself was not idle, and asked Si Long and Si Ling to go out separately to inquire about the list of officials in Beijing.

It's better to find out about this, as long as you are a person in the capital, you don't say that you are a treasure to these officials in the capital. .Of course, the source of the news is mixed, and there are also various anecdotes, such as who is the most selfless, who is the most disrespectful, who is the most greedy for money, who is the most romantic, and so on.

Manman compiled these news into a pamphlet, and took it out from time to time to look at it, wondering who was most likely to be related to it.

Manman also thought about it, should she, Si Ling, and Si Long go to stop the sedan chair and complain for grievances like in the storybook legend?
Regardless of whether the trip can be made or not, at least one needs to know where all the yamen in the capital are. Therefore, on a sunny day, Manman took Si Ling and Si Long out.Asking while walking, strolling while walking, just to see the scenery.

The capital is bustling and bustling, the streets are full of traffic, and there is endless vitality. No one knows Manman's sadness, let alone the reason for these three young women wandering in the street.

Manman was in a daze, when the shouts of soldiers came from behind him, and then there was the sound of raindrops rolling against the ground.Manman watched helplessly as a group of people roared from the other side of the street, and the pedestrians on the street retreated to both sides of the street spontaneously and consciously, and a passage was immediately vacated in the whole street.And the first few soldiers were still shouting: "Get out of the way, or you will bear the consequences."

Seeing that their master and servant were left in the middle of the street, Si Ling and Si Long were taken aback for a moment, and quickly realized that this should be an adult passing by, so they had to clear the way.Hastily dragged Manman, who was absent-minded, and withdrew towards the side of the street. When he walked a little slower, he heard whips and whistles in his ears, and a soldier was already cursing: "I don't have eyes, if you bump into your lord, you can take care of me!" up?"

Si Long broke out in a cold sweat. She was young and dodged it. An old man next to her was not so lucky. She was swept to the shoulder by the whip, and her skin was bruised immediately.
