Chapter 64: Night Visit
There are also two or three people behind Jiang Jia, and it seems that they also came out to find her. Cheng Zifei was a little surprised that Jiang Jia, Murong Xiuyuan's closest bodyguard and crony, was also sent out! Jiang Jia is heading south. Is he also going to Qingzhou? After sneaking all the way back to Cheng's home, he will eventually be known by Murong Xiuyuan. Should he come forward and recognize Jiang Jia?
Cheng Zifei was hesitant and watched Jiang Jia and the others enter a small restaurant, and she also led the horse to follow. At this time, the makeup on her face was still yellow and thin, and she was wearing ordinary clothes. I believe Jiang Jia should not recognize it. She wanted to get close to Jiang Jia and listen to what they said, whether Murong Xiuyuan ordered her to do so on.
Jiang Jia and the other three sat down at a table and shouted for beef, rice and so on. They didn't ask for wine. Obviously, they just had to eat and go on their way.
Cheng Zifei sat down at the table next to them, inclined Jiang Jia. I only heard one of the young men in gray and yellow clothes say, "Brother Jiang, the news from the Cheng family in Qingzhou is that no one has contacted the princess. Do you think the princess will return to Qingzhou to throw herself into the trap?"
"What is self-interesting? Nonsense!" Jiang Jia stared at the man and scolded in a low voice, "Don't talk nonsense!" If the prince hears it, he will definitely skin you! The princess was just bored for a moment and wanted to go out. She is a girl who is helpless and can't go back to her mother's house. Where can she go? Of course, we have to wait at Cheng's house.
The man was not angry after being scolded, and still said carelessly, "Brother Jiang, you are the closest person to the prince. You should know better than us that the prince and the princess have always been at peace. This time, the princess escaped from the royal palace, I'm afraid she will never go back again! Although I have never seen the princess's martial arts, I heard Xiaowu Xiaoqi say that she is the best among us. The princess has martial arts, why do you have to go back to her mother's house? I don't think the prince is in the wrong direction at all!"
Cheng Zifei listened and couldn't help looking at the young man carefully. Although this person doesn't know her, he can understand her thoughts. It can be seen that she is a smart and clear person. Unfortunately, she is just a guard in the royal palace. If she hadn't been poisoned, she would not have returned to Cheng's house!
When Jiang Jia heard his instigation, he couldn't help staring again: "Xiao He, aren't you smart? Do you think the prince can't guess the princess's mind? It's just that the princess is gone. The prince is always looking for it. Where can he look for it? Of course, the Cheng family is the first place to look for!"
"Yes, the prince has sent several people, and there are people chasing them in every direction." On the other side, a young man in blue also opened his mouth and showed his big white teeth with a smile: "In fact, our journey is the easiest. We know that the princess will not return to Cheng's home! So let's take it as a trip. What a good opportunity, the prince will cover the cost!"
He spoke easily and proudly, and even Jiang Jia couldn't help laughing. He called his two names and scolded, "Xiao He, Xiao Wu, only you two bastards will enjoy happiness. You know to follow me to run south!"
"That's it!" Xiaowu answered with a smile, "So let's go slowly along the way. Don't worry so much, okay? Why don't we order some wine?"
Cheng Zifei heard that they had talked about other messy things, and she stopped listening carefully. She casually ordered a dish and two steamed buns and began to eat.
Since Jiang Jia is going all the way south with these two people, she should be more careful. Within a month, you must rush to Cheng's house to find the antidote, otherwise, you will not only suffer, but also be chased by Jiang Jia and others.
Cheng Zifei did not dare to delay at all. According to the normal itinerary, if you ride a horse, you can go to Qingzhou in about half a month, but Cheng Zifei rushed to Qingzhou on the tenth day.
Entering Qingzhou City, you will immediately feel like the ancient town of Jiangnan. Cheng Zifei dismarted in front of an inn, handed the horse over to Xiao Er, directly paid for three days and asked for a room. The Cheng family is a big family in Qingzhou, and it is not difficult to inquire about it, so she is going to Cheng's house to explore the situation at night.
After closing the door and resting in the room for most of the day, Cheng Zifei was refreshed, put on makeup again, covered her original face, and then prepared a night coat.
At three o'clock, Cheng Zifei put on her night clothes, and the cat turned into Cheng's house. The pattern of the Cheng family is different from that of the Qi Wangfu. Although the whole is not large, the gardens are stacked, which is a typical Jiangnan courtyard, which does not look like the Jiangwu family at all.
She didn't know which room Father Cheng was in, so she could only touch it in the direction of the main room. In the bedroom of the main room, although it was too late, the candlelight was still swaying.
Cheng Zifei jumped on the roof, gently uncovered a tile, and saw two women sitting in the lower room. One of them, Baodai Zhuhai and gorgeous clothes, was a lady at first glance, obviously the eldest lady of Chengfu. And the other person, although his clothes are slightly simple, is not shabby, and he is also a good clothing style. It seems that he is also a very noble mother in Chengfu.
Only heard Mrs. Cheng say quietly: "Since receiving the letter from the Prince of Qi's Mansion that day, he has been sighing, but he refuses to say what happened. In the past two days, the master has sighed more and more fiercely. Do you think it's the girl who made trouble? Or is there going to be movement in the court?"
Another woman persuaded, "Madam, don't worry. It's a great blessing for the young lady to marry into the royal palace. What else can she do? Didn't she agree when she got married? We didn't force her! Now that she has been married for more than half a year, she has been a member of the Prince of Qi. What else can she do? If it's about the court, the old slave won't understand.
Cheng Zifei listened on the roof and secretly sneered in her heart. It turned out that "Cheng Zifei" was forced before she got married! But this is the eldest lady's bedroom, why is Father Cheng not here?
She didn't want to listen to the nonsense of these two people anymore. She turned over and flew to the east yard. There is also a faint light over there. She doesn't know whose yard it is, but she will go and see what's going on first. This time, I found the right place.
From the window, you can see two figures in the room. She quietly pasted it and was about to lift the tiles to eavesdrop, but she heard a shout in the room: "Who?"
Then a man rushed out of the room, dressed in white and with a face like jade, but his eyes were very cold. Cheng Zifei didn't have time to take a closer look and hurriedly took off. The man in white chased after him and went straight outside Cheng's house and still didn't get rid of him!
Cheng Zifei was secretly anxious and came to Chengfu. What news had not been found yet? If she was caught in this way, wouldn't it be a failure? As she ran and guessed, she could see clearly that the man behind her was very young and gloomy. Is he the second son of Chengfu?
