The Doctor's Concubine: Kick the Scumbag King and I Want to Be a Dandy Girl in the Capital

Shao was shocked: "Tell me what's going on."

Zhang Xuwei picked up the teacup on the table and drank all the tea in it in one breath. He wiped his mouth and said:

“I just turned onto the street where Shangguan was temporarily staying, and I saw Li Tongpan coming out of Shangguan.

I was afraid that he would see me, so I quickly hid back.

Zhou Tongzhi once told me that Li Tongpan had secret dealings with Shangguan, and that Shangguan knew every move I made.

I didn't take it seriously at the time and thought that Zhou Tongzhi said that on purpose because he was jealous of Li Tongpan.

Today, seeing is believing. Pan Li Tong is indeed Shangguan's man, or in other words, Pan Li Tong has already defected to Shangguan.

After I met Shangguan, I told him that the marriage between our two families was not going through, and Shangguan's face looked particularly ugly.

After I took out the gift, Shangguan's mother happened to come in and saw it. She liked the "color-changing brocade" very much, so she asked someone to take it to be made into clothes, saying that the weather would soon get cold and she wanted to make a cloak to wear. Only then did Shangguan's face look much better.

Shangguan drank the wine and liked it very much. He seemed to think it was not enough.

I said that the younger generation of my family brought them from the capital on horseback, and they only brought two jars in total. They also brought four jade pens and two horses of "color-changing brocade".

I said, if Shangguan likes this wine, please write back to Beijing and ask your family to send me more. "

Shangguan smiled then and said: "No need. You have come from far away. The gift may be small but the sentiment is great."

We chatted a little more and he let me come back.”

Shao heaved a sigh of relief: "It seems that Li Tongpan said a lot of bad things about you when he went to Shangguan's house. Otherwise, Shangguan would not have used this as an excuse to embarrass you."

"Yes, if I don't eliminate my superiors' prejudice this time, they will definitely make things difficult for me when the officials are evaluated for their performance in the fall."

"Master, you have to be careful of this Li Tongpan from now on. He seems to be a very upright person, but I didn't expect him to do something sneaky."

Zhang Xuwei sighed: "Everyone wants to climb up, but if you don't pull others down, you can't get up."

"You mean, Li Tongpan and Zhou Tongzhi are both eyeing your position?"

"Yeah, there's nothing wrong with that. I'm also eyeing my superior's position, but Li Tongpan's behavior is a bit annoying.

Our father has foresight, and we will definitely go the right way if we follow his advice."

"Didn't Luo Luo say that?"

"What does she know as a little kid? It must be our dad who told her to say that."

"Right."

If Xiu Luoran heard this, he would definitely say:

This girl knows a lot of things.

……

Because Xiu Luoran was worried about the Yi brothers and sisters in Kangtai City, he stayed in Lu Yuan Mansion for two days and then said he wanted to return to the capital.

Zhang Xuwei wanted to keep her for a few more days, and Shao also said:

"It's almost mid-autumn, and all kinds of fruits here are ripe. You can take some of each back and let your grandfather and your father have a taste.

There are many wild animals and mountain products in the mountains. You can pick some that are not available in Beijing and bring them back to eat. "

Xiu Luoran refused: "Second aunt, by the time I take these things to the capital, the fruits will rot and the wild animals will stink.

I will take your thoughts back, but forget about the things. Don’t let your thoughts go to waste.”

Zhang Xuwei also said, "Don't take it. The journey is too far, and she came on horseback, so it's not convenient for her to carry more."

Only then did Shaw give up.

However, she still took out some of the early ones:

"Take it with you to eat on the road."

"Thank you, second aunt. By the way, second uncle, are you short of money?"

Zhang Xuwei was stunned: This girl has no money to spend?

"Luoluo, why are you asking that?"

"Uncle, I got some money in Kangtai City. If you don't have money to spend, I'll give you some."

Zhang Xuwei: This niece is pretty good.

Shao laughed and said, "You silly boy, who told you that local officials would be short of money?

Keep the money for yourself. Your second uncle and I are thinking about it. If we come across something good, we will prepare more and save it for your dowry."

"Thank you, uncle and aunt."

Zhang Xuwei was very curious: "Luoluo, how much money did you get?"

Xiu Luoran stretched out five fingers.

Zhang Xuwei's eyes widened. "Fifty thousand taels? Not a small amount. Save it all and buy something you like as a dowry when you return to Beijing."

Xiu Luoran was speechless and she didn't explain much.

Zhang Xuwei suddenly thought of Tianlang Ridge:

"Luoluo, no one comes out to stop you, right?"

"I was beaten away."

Zhang Xuwei was surprised: "You know martial arts?"

Shao smiled: "I told you that you are confused but you still refuse to admit it. Luoluo has no martial arts skills. Would my father and brother-in-law agree to let her come all the way here alone?"

Zhang Xuwei asked again: "You didn't suffer any loss, did you?"

"No. Second uncle, why don't you government wipe out this group of bandits?"

“There are basically no towns or villages around Tianlangling, and there is no human habitation, so they rarely come out to rob.

If the people don't report it and the officials don't investigate it, who would have the time to suppress the bandits?"

Also.

Xiu Luoran took out a cloth bag, pointed at the paper bags inside and said:

“Uncle, these are ready-made medicines that are very effective, but Grandpa spent a lot of money and effort to get them for you.

Please read the instructions carefully and take it according to the instructions.

Especially the antidote, you must always carry it with you, just in case."

When Zhang Xuwei heard that his father had brought it specially for him, he quickly opened it and took a closer look.

There are six or seven kinds of medicines, such as those for treating colds, coughs, reducing internal heat, stopping bleeding and treating injuries.

He looked at the antidote that Xiu Luoran had repeatedly emphasized, then carefully wrapped up two pills and put them close to his body. He asked Shao to put two pills in his pocket as well.

Keep the rest carefully.

Little did he know that these two antidote tablets would save his life when he was ambushed by his men one day.

Xiu Luoran thought about it and made sure she had not missed anything, so she put Zhang Xuwei's letter to Zhang Yuetang in her pocket, put on her big backpack, left Lu Yuan Mansion, and rode back.

When we passed the valley of Tianlang Ridge, we didn't see any bandits and passed through smoothly.

Unexpectedly, not long after passing Tianlang Ridge, she found that she was being followed.

Moreover, it wasn't just one or two people following her, but a group of about five or six people.

When she rode her horse, these people rode her horse too. When she stopped, these people stopped too.

In fact, at Tayun's speed, if he ran as fast as he could, there would be few horses in the entire Tianhe Dynasty that could catch up with him.

But Xiu Luoran didn't want to make Tayun so tired. Besides, the scenery in the south was very beautiful and she was not in a hurry. So she just ran slowly and enjoyed the scenery along the way.

In addition, she also wanted to take a good look at who was following her and why.

So Xiu Luoran ran even slower, until it was almost dark, and there was not even a village or town nearby, so how could he find a place to stay?

The person who was following her caught up with her.

When they arrived in front of Xiu Luoran, Xiu Luoran cursed:

"Are you looking for death, huh?"
