He waved to Qi Fang, and Qi Fang asked the horse to come closer. He supported the door frame of the carriage with one hand, raised his legs and stepped in.
When they all got on the carriage, the carriage shuddered slightly, and the tassels around it swayed.
Qi Rui sat aside, leaving a seat for Qi Fang.
With a slight smile on his lips, he looked at Qi Fang carefully.
"Darker and stronger."
Qi Fang scratched his head in embarrassment. He hadn't seen his eldest brother for a long time. He was still as gentle as before, unlike his imperial sister, who was generally fierce.
"Brother, how many days will you stay here this time?"
He has been here for two months, and under the leadership of Jiang Zhiyi, he has experienced all the things to do and eat here. His elder brother finally came here, so he has to take him to have a good time.
.
"When dealing with some small things, I can't say for sure."
Qi Rui looked at Qi Fang's shining eyes and knew without guessing that he was here to gain experience in Qishan City and was clearly here just for fun.
The carriage drove slowly towards the city gate. He was here to deal with some personal matters of his own this time, so he did not tell Su Ji. He also wanted to take advantage of this meeting to investigate the situation in Fishan City.
Of course, the most important thing is to check on Sister Yaoyao for my aunt.
Qi Rui only told Qi Fang that he came this time. Adhering to a low-key style of doing things, he asked his bodyguard Xing Yun to find a small yard in the south of the city.
The courtyard is an ordinary courtyard house. There is a huge osmanthus tree in the center of the courtyard, which almost covers most of the sky.
The furnishings in the house were also simple. Fortunately, Qi Rui didn't have so many shelves. Although the bed was squeaky and hard to sleep on, he didn't care and lay on it like nothing happened.
Xingyun slept in a side room, and the two of them were separated by a wall. He could clearly hear any movement on Qi Rui's side.
The moon and stars were sparse, and Qi Rui, who had just arrived, was still not used to it, and he didn't fall asleep until late at night.
He sat in front of the window, looking at the bright moon in the sky, his eyes dim and he didn't know what he was thinking.
In his hand hanging on his knees, he held a round jade pendant, on which was engraved a phoenix trying to flutter its wings instead. The color of the tassels on it had faded, as if it had passed through many years.
Qi Rui raised his hand, stared blankly ahead, and gently touched his cheek with the piece of jade. The warm feeling was still there. His brows were slightly furrowed, and there was a look of pain in his eyes.
He hasn't seen Yaoyao for a long time.
Partridges cooed outside the window, and there were always people sleepless in the quiet night.
Nebula had prepared the carriage early the next morning, and Qi Rui simply packed it up before getting on.
The carriage drove all the way south towards the city gate.
Currently, all city gates are heavily guarded, and you must register whether you are leaving or entering the city.
Xingyun frowned slightly as he looked at the long queue of carriages. He slowly drove the carriage towards the management soldiers.
He took out a token from his pocket.
No matter how ignorant the soldier was, he could still recognize the word "East Palace" engraved on it.
The man had been guarding this city for more than ten years and had never seen any big shot. At this moment, his body was on level one alert. He waved his arms in a panic and shouted at the soldiers blocking the checkpoint, "Open the door! Open the door quickly!"
"
Those soldiers had never seen their heads so frightened and confused. They looked curiously at the carriage, guessing in their hearts which god was inside.
In the carriage that had just been registered, a beautiful woman in a white dress opened the curtain and poked her head out, curiously looking at the formation of the soldiers.
When the carriage passed by, all the vehicles had to go aside, and the soldiers guarding the gate watched it leave with their heads held high.
As they passed each other, Qi Rui happened to look out from the gap in the curtain and saw the little woman looking at him curiously.
The woman's eyes are clear and translucent, her cheeks are not fat but very voluptuous, and her cherry lips are so pink that they look like the white lotus in the pool that is about to bloom.
With just one glance, Qi Rui remembered her.
However, Su Yuanyuan, whose face was full of dust after being robbed, did not look good. She raised her hand to fan the dust in front of her, and looked at the carriage that had driven away with a frown on her face.
Come through the back door!
Qingyi has been observing the man driving the horse since just now. The man is wearing a black riding uniform with thick calluses on his hands. He doesn't look like he is a coolie, so there is only one possibility left. He is a coolie like him.
Guard.
But for the soldiers guarding the gate to give way in such a large formation, I'm afraid the people inside must have something to do with the officials.
Su Yuanyuan wanted to transport all the seeds she bought to the villa today. She also asked Jiang Wenzheng to write four big characters to give the villa a name.
When she said the four words "Lanyue Villa" with a smile, Jiang Wenzheng was obviously stunned, and then he laughed. When had she ever been so poetic and elegant?
Qing Yi drove the carriage very quickly, and Su Yuanyuan saw the shadow of the villa in less than half a quarter of an hour, but a carriage parked on the roadside attracted her attention.
Isn't this the carriage that just walked through the back door?
Su Yuanyuan stretched out her head to look around, and Qingyi also saw the two men standing aside.
One of the men was wearing a dark purple gown with no complicated patterns on it, making him extremely elegant.
Qing Ben wanted to pretend to be blind and pass by, but the man put on a smile and saluted them.
The etiquette was fair and impartial, with no faults to be found, which further confirmed Qing Yi's guess.
He stopped the carriage, and Su Yuanyuan looked at them curiously.
There was nothing wrong with the carriage, except that the horse fell to the ground foaming at the mouth, and its legs and feet were twitching from time to time.
Seeing the carriage stop, Qi Rui first saluted Qing Yi, then turned and bowed to Su Yuanyuan.
"I'm really sorry to bother you, girl."
Su Yuanyuan was still worried about him cutting in line just now, so she lifted the curtain and looked at him.
The big eyes are like a ignorant little white rabbit, but deep down in my heart I am happy, I deserve it! I asked you to join my team!
"Ah? What's wrong, sir?"
Qi Rui always stood one meter away from Su Yuanyuan. He knew he had to keep a good distance from the girl's family. He didn't know the folk customs of Fishan City and was afraid of offending others.
"There's something wrong with my horse."
Su Yuanyuan's eyes turned to the twitching horse. What's the problem? He was clearly about to die of grief. How could this man be so calm?
Could he be saying this because he wanted to borrow her carriage so that she could give him a ride?
He carefully looked at the man in front of him. The man looked white and his eyes were as clear as lake water. When he looked at her, he lightly pursed his lips. He looked innocent no matter how he looked at her.
She carefully glanced at the seeds in her carriage. She was not sitting on a stool at all, but sitting on a sack full of seeds with her legs spread.
Su Yuanyuan sighed, although you are a handsome guy, I really can't afford to let you sit on my sack.
