Yu Limu didn't know how he fell asleep that night.

In short, the next morning, when the sun was shining, he woke up suddenly from his sleep.

In his heart, he was still thinking about his poor and unfortunate little sister, he thought, now that a day has passed, she should also think about it, so after washing up, he hurriedly asked his servants to get ready. The carriage went straight to Yang's mansion, wanting to take his sister back to Yu's house and be his real sister.

However, this time, Yang Xun, who came out to greet him, was holding Lu Lanchen's box full of gold, silver and jewelry, and his whole expression was a little bit wrong.

He was afraid that the younger sister might be at fault, so he hurriedly asked, "Brother Yang, what's the matter? Is it Miss Lan, what happened to her?"

Yang Xun didn't open his mouth to speak, he just waved his hands with a cold face, and then, the Qiumeng girl who took care of Lu Lanchen was carried over, and knelt down in front of Yu Limu with a "plop".

But the little girl, who was only fourteen or fifteen years old, was young and didn't understand anything. She knew that this time it was over and she had done something wrong. She was holding a small handkerchief and crying non-stop.

Yang Xun looked at her crying face full of snot and tears, turned his head with some disgust, and said, "Qiu Meng, talk to Young Master Yu about what happened yesterday."

Qiu Meng took a look at Yu Limu, wiped away her tears, then kowtowed heavily, sobbing, "Young Master Yu, I really can't blame me for Miss Lan's disappearance. Yesterday, after you left, Miss Lan suddenly Just smiled at me, Miss Lan looks so good-looking, I lost my mind when I smiled, and then she took my hand, first said that I was like her sister Qiu Zhui'er, and then said that staying here was boring, very If you want me to talk with her, young master Yu, tell me, as a slave, how dare I disobey her orders..."

……

"Later, Miss Lan said that she wanted to go out for a walk. I thought she was in better spirits, so naturally I dragged her out happily, but we just looked around in the yard and garden... ..."

……

Listening to the little girl's retelling, Yu Limu's complexion also began to become more and more ugly. This girl really has no brains, and she can't even understand such obvious clichés. With a good word, he explained everything, and then let people run away in the middle of the night.

Seeing that his brother was so angry, Yang Xun was also deeply annoyed that he didn't see that the girl wanted to leave, so he hurried over, cupped his hands, and gave Yu Limu a deep bow, saying: "This time It was my fault that the house guards of Yang's house were negligent and it was also my fault, brother Yu, don't worry, I will definitely send someone to find your sister back unscathed."

Yu Limu sighed, his head hurting more and more, but he still comforted the self-blame Yang Xun and said, "How can I blame you, little sister, when she went through hardships and sufferings, my father and I were not there. By her side, now, she doesn't want to recognize me, let alone her father, I understand and understand, I shouldn't push her too hard."

"Oh, I don't know where Miss Lan went."

The two looked at the box of "ransom money" left by Lu Lanchen, both worried.

Lu Lanchen did indeed run out, she only took two pieces of jewelry, and took a few small denomination banknotes from the bottom of the box, and the pipa that she had depended on for many years, just using the cliché from Qiu Meng. With no known clues, he quietly left the Yang residence in the middle of the night.

And there was no other reason for her to run away, she just didn't want to stay in Yang's house anymore, and she didn't want to go to Yu's mansion with her brother, no matter what, that's all.

There hadn't been any good memories for her mother in the past, and naturally it wouldn't create good memories for her in the future.

She may appear stupid and stubborn in many things, but she is very clear-headed. She knows what kind of person she is, and she knows that she will never be a daughter of an official family.

There are too many people who recognize her in this capital city. People like the Yu family may prefer that she die immediately, and they don't want to recognize her back and make a face of shame. When the time comes, her brother will be caught in the middle. It will be difficult.

Therefore, she decided to leave before all this happened.

She clings to the big guy she used to eat, and walks endlessly on the street.

"Selling buns! Delicious buns..."

In fact, Lu Lanchen hadn't walked on the street like this for a long time. In the past, it was because she was under strict control. Later, it was because she didn't like to come out, she just wanted to lock herself up.

But now, the steaming buns on the street brought back many unpleasant memories for her. Her parents left her early, and self-reliance is too difficult for a little girl.

When she was extremely hungry, she could only give up her morality and steal buns.

It was so hot, when she held the bun, her dirty hands instantly turned red, burning like a fire, she bit her lip tightly to keep from screaming.

Many times, she was discovered, and it was not easy for peddlers to eat by themselves, so naturally they would not show any kindness to a girl who stole. The peddler beat and kicked.

Later, it was because of one person that she finally ended such a miserable life. That person was the one she cared about most in her life and wanted to escape the most.

I haven't seen her for a long time, and I don't know what happened to her...

Lu Lanchen has experienced too much in the past few days. She wished she could see Rong Chengjin again, and she wished she could tell Rong Chengjin all this. Maybe she knew that she also had the identity of a young lady. , she suddenly became squeamish, anyway, she really wanted to hear Rong Chengjin's comfort, this girl is always so gentle.

The more she thought about it, the more sad she felt. Walking on the street alone with her head down, her whole expression was a little dazed.

Suddenly, without realizing it, she ran straight into the person in front of her.

The dandy in brocade clothes is obviously not a good-tempered master. At this time, he was hit by her wooden lute and suffered pain. He turned around and was about to curse, but he turned his head and saw her appearance. In an instant, he was suddenly stunned.

"It's you! Miss Lan Chen from Qingfeng Building!" Young Master Jinyi showed joy, and hurriedly took another step towards her.

"It's really not a dream, it's really you, girl." He ignored Lu Lanchen's frowning and stepped back step by step, still smiling happily, like a fool.

"I didn't expect such a coincidence to meet Miss Lan Chen here. It's really... It's really a fate to meet you from thousands of miles away, and it doesn't take much effort! Miss, how are you recently?"

After finishing speaking, without waiting for anyone's answer, he pointed to the restaurant where he had just come out after eating and drinking, and said: "Since it's such a coincidence, why don't we talk about it in the private room upstairs, but there are always many things to talk about?" , I want to talk to the girl, but when the girl was still in that building, she always avoided seeing her..."

Lu Lanchen's face turned pale immediately, she looked coldly at the happy man in front of her, but in her heart she only blamed herself for running too flustered before, and didn't think about anything, not even touching a piece of the silk scarf that could cover her face So that she was recognized so quickly now, which is really not conducive to her escape plan.

"My lord, you have misunderstood the person." Lu Lanchen said with a white face.

Hearing what Lu Lanchen said, Mr. Jinyi immediately began to express his sincerity: "No! How could I have misunderstood someone with my piercing eyes? Besides, I admire the girl. Even if you are burned to ashes, girl, I, Tong Hongfan, can definitely do it." I recognized you immediately."

Then should I really thank you?Lu Lanchen, who was inexplicably cursed, slandered like this.

"My lord really has the wrong person." Lu Lanchen said so perfunctorily, and wanted to bypass him and leave.

However, this young man in brocade clothes is not relentless, "I heard that Miss Lan Chen was redeemed by some nobleman, what's the matter? That nobleman is so strict with you? How can you even talk to others? Can’t make a song? Tell me, girl, who is that person? I’ll talk to him and ask him to pay a price, maybe I still know this person, and I went to drink with him..."

He kept talking, as if he couldn't see the eyes that were gradually looking around, nor could he see Lu Lanchen's gradually becoming ugly face.

When he was talking more and more happily, suddenly, there was only a blunt sound, and a pipa had already hit his head.

His head was bleeding profusely, and he yelled suddenly, and finally he stopped chattering.

"Master!"

The servant behind him hastily protected him, and shouted at Lu Lanchen, who suddenly swung his pipa and smashed someone in front of him, "You are so brave! How dare you attack my young master! Bai Qiu, go!" Report to the officer!"

Young Master Jinyi was bleeding all over his face, tears were flying everywhere, his head was dizzy, but he still insisted on saying: "It's okay, it's okay, it's just a small hole, don't report to the authorities for now..."

After he finished speaking tremblingly, he looked up at Lu Lanchen again through the blood, "Lan...Miss Lanchen, you...you really don't want to talk to me..."

Although his tone was flat and his expression was a little fragile, to Lu Lanchen, who has always been sensitive, he was already a blatant threat. If he didn't report to the police for now, it meant that if she didn't give him a satisfactory answer, he would Reported to the official.

It's a joke, she has already beaten everyone, and she is even afraid of his few words.

She didn't bother to pay attention to his words, and wanted to leave immediately. In the end, the servant beside him came up to pull her.

Just when Lu Lanchen took a few steps back and was about to dodge, a clear and clear female voice suddenly passed through the sparse crowd, "Miss Lu, my girl is here to invite you."

A few people were stunned immediately, the young man must have been fighting for a long time, and he wanted to provoke, but after seeing the little girl appearing in front of them, he suddenly fell silent.

Of course, he wasn't afraid of the fifteen or sixteen year old girl, what he was afraid of was the two tall and big guards behind the little girl.

The beautiful little girl looked at them with a smile, and said: "My county chief invites Miss Lu, how many of you, will you refuse?"

And Lu Lanchen also recognized the little girl at this time, she was a little surprised and said: "You are... the girl Hongyao who is next to County Lord Yao?"

Seeing Lu Lanchen, Hongyao quickly blessed her, smiled sweetly and said, "Miss, you still remember me."

Lu Lanchen felt that he was not nobler than others, and when he saw someone leaning towards him, he didn't know what to do, so he lowered his head in embarrassment.

Seeing Lu Lanchen like this, Hongyao smiled, but she stopped being courteous and directly took the girl's hand, planning to leave this place.

Young Master Jinyi looked at their backs, and stretched out his hand extremely aggrieved, but in the end, he could only shrink back in resentment.

No matter how humble the birth of the County Lord Yao is, and there is no one in her family, she is still the current County Lord, and she is a great hero who donated millions of taels of silver. His current status alone is not enough for him People point fingers.

After he figured this out, he was extremely angry, but he had no way to vent it, so he covered his head with a handkerchief and said to each of the servants, "Why are you still standing there! Do you want me to bleed to death?" ? Go find a doctor for me!"

……

Maybe it's because County Lord Yao is too famous, and she is also a friend of County Lord Yun'an, and they have met before, Lu Lanchen stepped into his carriage very willingly, without even a trace of hesitation, and completely disappeared. When he was in Yu's house, he looked haggard and pale.

"Thank you County Lord Yao for helping Lan Chen out of the siege." Lu Lanchen gave Yao Chuqian a deep blessing.

County Master Yao looked at Lu Lanchen, who was still showing his teeth and claws, and suddenly laughed softly: "So, did I rescue Miss Lu? I just came here far away Looking at the girl swinging her pipa to kill all directions from a distance, she is really majestic and unstoppable. So much so that when she called Hongyao girl to invite you, she was still worried, worried that the girl would come to see you later Me, will you be annoyed that I hinder you?"

Seeing that Lord Yao, whom he had admired secretly for so long, would say that, Lu Lanchen was taken aback, then lowered his head and blushed, and said, "Master Yao...how could it be...I...I didn't mean to..."

With a faltering appearance, he couldn't make a complete sentence for a long time.

Yao Chuqian originally just wanted to tease the little girl, but now seeing Lu Lanchen being so serious, she laughed even more happily, and even the girl Hongyao who was beside her couldn't help but cover her mouth to steal the joke.

And Lu Lanchen was really nervous because he saw County Lord Yao goodbye, and he didn't think about those aspects for a while, so that the smiles facing them at this time were a little cloudy, and he didn't know why he was so happy.

As for Yao Chuqian, she really didn't like Lu Lanchen's cautious way of moving his hands. After finally laughing, she took the girl's hand and dragged her to sit beside her.

Lu Lanchen, a girl who had already engraved etiquette and dignity into her bones during her long time as a girl, was dragged here by the noble county head, and she said that she didn't dare, and hurried to get up.

After Yao Chuqian pushed her back, she looked at her rather puzzled: "Why didn't the girl dare? Could it be that she disliked Chu Qian? That's a pity. I felt very attached to the girl when I saw her. After the last farewell , so I just look forward to seeing you again with the girl all day long, and have a good chat."

Lu Lanchen was taken aback for a moment, and said, "Why would the county lord think so? I just think that the county lord is honorable, and I'm not worthy."

Yao Chuqian's wonderful eyes were bent again immediately, she smiled and sighed: "What's unworthy, Miss Lu, with me, you must never underestimate yourself because of your birth, after all, if To be honest, you are a singer, you are a low class, and my ancestors have been in business for generations, and you are also a low class, and you are not worthy of being a county head, let alone sitting with those noble ladies and wives."

Hearing that Yao Chuqian said that because of herself, Lu Lanchen didn't even think about it, and immediately refuted her: "Master, please don't say that, how can you be unworthy! The deeds of the county government donating millions of taels of silver, even the people on the street Everyone in the market knows that Lan Chen has always admired the county magistrate, and who among those noble families would be willing to spend so much money."

Yao Chuqian shook her head at her, and said: "Whether this is worthy or not, you and I, even Princess Yun'an, have nothing to say, because in some people's hearts, I will never be worthy, and I am very clear about this." .”

Hearing this, Lu Lanchen didn't know what he was thinking of. Looking at Yao Chuqian, his expression began to show some sadness, injustice, and even pity...

"County Lord..." She pursed her lips and called out.

Seeing this girl, Yao Chuqian began to feel that she was complaining plaintively, and her head ached suddenly, so she said, "Oh, Miss Lu, don't look at me like that anymore, as if I have something wrong with you." How pitiful, you just treat me as your friend, I am not pitiful at all, or, just listen to my story, this story, I never even told the princess, and you Listen, and don’t be disappointed.”

As for why she didn't talk to Rong Chengjin...

Yao Chuqian always felt that Rong Chengjin was too innocent, and every time Rong Chengjin looked at her, it was as if she was the kindest, most beautiful, most gentle, caring, and most virtuous existence in the world. Even if she has thousands of ghost ideas in her heart and wants to tell others, she can only swallow them silently and act like Rong Chengjin likes them.

After all, it's really not easy to get a friend in this vanity fair, especially with such an innocent and kind girl like Rong Chengjin, even if you sell her, she can count for you with a smile. Money is even more worth cherishing.

Seeing that Yao Chuqian wanted to tell her a story, Lu Lanchen frowned slightly. She pointed at herself in disbelief and asked, "Me?"

What qualifications does a woman like her have to hear the story of the dignified county lord.

Yao Chuqian didn't answer her question, but just spoke on her own.

"Miss Lu knows that Chu Qian was born in a businessman, a scholar, a farmer, a businessman, and the last businessman. Therefore, these scholar-bureaucrats in Beijing look down on me, but they are also useless. They will only laugh behind my back. Me, laughing at me, I took advantage of the country's crisis and exchanged my wealth for a noble county head, and I rose to the sky in one step, from a lowly merchant's daughter to a majestic county head comparable to the daughter of a county king."

Having said that, Yao Chuqian couldn't help chuckling.

"Actually, I don't care much about being a county lord, nor do I care much about being ruled by an emperor, but I also have my own difficulties. I am my father's only daughter, and as a daughter, in this world, I just want to suffer a bit. After my father became seriously ill, my heartless relatives stared at my house all day long, hoping that my father would die, and then they would use all kinds of excuses to come over and eat up the family. If they still have a little Be merciful, maybe give me some dowry to send me out, if they have no conscience, who knows if they will sell me off as an elder after swallowing my family property."

"Since I have a businessman father who is as wealthy as a country, I have been exposed to it, and I am naturally ruthless. Even if all my things are thrown into the river, I don't want to be snatched by a large group of robbers for nothing. So, without even thinking about it, I rushed to reveal the imperial list before they acted, and spent all my family property in exchange for His Majesty's blessing, and then, I got the expected position of county head. This position is not only a reward for me, but also an encouragement for the people of the world, from now on, no one dares to touch me."

After finishing speaking, Yao Chuqian looked at Lu Lanchen's surprised look, smiled gently and generously and said, "After listening to me tell this little story, how does Miss Lu feel? Will Miss Lu feel very disappointed? It turns out that this County Lord Yao, who is praised by everyone, only donated money unwillingly because he didn't want his family property to be taken away by his uncle, not to understand the crisis of the country at all, and it is not as great as the market rumors."

However, to Yao Chuqian's surprise, Lu Lanchen shook his head with a wooden face, and said, "That's not the case, Lan Chen thinks that no matter what your original intentions are, the huge amount of silver you donated by going bankrupt is the most important thing." To be honest, your money has solved the urgent needs of His Majesty the Emperor, and also the urgent needs of the entire Southern Qi. Lan Chen only needs to understand this, and that is enough, and the rest is not important. You are still our hero, and you are still worth it. Everyone praises Lord Yao, Lan Chen, I still admire you."

Yao Chuqian raised her eyebrows in surprise. She was just talking casually and wanted to see Lu Lanchen's reaction. Just looking at Lu Lanchen's serious expression, she knew that what this girl said was true. Lu Lanchen really thought so It's not a nonsense made up to curry favor with the county lord's status.

So much so that she said "Silly girl, I lied to you", she had already reached the tip of her mouth, but she insisted on not saying it again.

This story is indeed true, and the reason why she told Lu Lanchen was that on the one hand, it was a sudden whim to tease this silly girl, and on the other hand, she also felt that this girl had a good character, and whether she believed it or not, she could If she won't say it, it will only rot in her heart. Besides, even if she really misjudged the person, if this girl really said it, no one will believe it.

As for her uncles who wanted to be extinct in the past, it's too late to curry favor with her at this moment, they only want to do business with her honor, and they have to laugh no matter how angry she is about throwing away so much money. Said that this is their education, their support.

Lu Lanchen, Lu Lanchen, it turns out that she is just a stubborn girl who can see the end at a glance, but has her own theory.

It's a bit interesting, no wonder this girl is so attached to Princess Yun'an, Yao Chuqian looked at Lu Lanchen thoughtfully, thinking so.
