The imperial concubine bows down to me

Hearing this, Shen Zhi's face immediately changed, and he fought with the visitor.Seeing that something was wrong, the two hidden guards hurried over to help Shen Zhi.

Although the martial arts of the three are very strong, after all, there are probably two or three hundred robbers in their party, and it is hard to tell whether they will win or not.In order to ensure Shen Zhi's safety, the two of them fought and gradually opened a way for Shen Zhi, telling her to go first, saying that they would chase her after they got away.

Although Shen Zhi was unwilling to just leave the two of them and those attendants behind, she knew that being here would only distract them and would not be able to exert all her strength, so she also complied, got on the horse again and shot a blow from behind. Road, left first.Although the few followers she picked when she left Liuzhou were not proficient in martial arts, it was no problem for one person to deal with a few small bandits. Even if there was no one to help them, they would be able to escape from the crowd with the two hidden guards later. When they came out, Shen Zhi didn't care about them.

After running for about five miles, out of the mountain, and outside a small tea stall, Shen Zhi stopped, ready to wait for them here.There was no one in the tea stand yet, so Shen Zhi got off the horse and ordered a cup of clear tea.

After inquiring with the boss, she found out that the robbers in that mountain were very fierce. Walk through that road in peace, unless all the money is handed over, even the officials here will not dare to provoke them.So, people who know the situation usually choose to take a detour. If there are foreigners who want to go that way, they will remind them. It's just that Shen Zhi wants to return to Beijing as soon as possible, so he didn't have time to ask people about it. After passing the situation here, this is his way.

Having said that, Shen Zhi's heart hung up again, but she really didn't understand, since that man is so strong in martial arts, why didn't he join the army or find a legitimate errand, instead of being a robber? What's the matter?

She asked, the boss was bored anyway, so he explained to her: "The head of the family was originally the young master of a security agency in Liuzhou, but in recent years, the officialdom in Liuzhou has been a mess. It's not uncommon. His father just said a few more words because he couldn't get used to those officials. Last year, his house was charged with an unwarranted crime and confiscated. He happened to be away at that time, and when he came back When he got such news, he became angry on the spot, killed the dog official, robbed his money, came to this mountain to settle down, and started this business. But fortunately, he never touches the things of poor people, even if it is Rich people, as long as they hand over their money obediently, they will not be killed, but those who are officials are not necessarily the same, I heard that he particularly hates officials..."

Until now, Shen Zhi suddenly realized why the few of them were targeted by the master.It turned out that not long after they came out of Liuzhou, because they didn't want to show their identities everywhere, Shen Zhi randomly assigned the two hidden guards a convenient official position for the convenience of customs clearance, and ordered someone to create a corresponding post for each of them. The fish talisman was pinned to his waist, and the head of the family, Xu Shi, saw this and thought they were officials from Liuzhou, so he misunderstood them.

After staying at the tea stand for less than half an hour, they didn't see them rushing over, so Shen Zhi was even more anxious now.But that group of people already knew what she looked like, and she couldn't go back to find out the situation. If they were still waiting for her there, wouldn't she have just fallen into a trap in the past.

After thinking about it, Shen Zhi tentatively asked the boss again: "Then you can tell, is there anyone familiar with them around here?"

"There is one." After thinking for a while, the boss stood up, pointed in a certain direction, and replied, "Go two miles ahead, the family at the front is a teacher, and the head of the family It's an old acquaintance, if you need it, you can go over and find out."

"Thank you for the reminder." After thanking him, Shen Zhi paid the money and hurried to the house the boss mentioned.

The teacher is kind and kind. Although he was suspicious of Shen Zhi's sudden visit at first, after explaining his intention half-concealed, he agreed without hesitation. Shen Zhi wanted to trouble him to go and ask about the situation. unfeeling request.

He is also a person who can ride a horse, so Shen Zhi didn't see him off, and within half an hour, he returned safely.It's just that his face was too calm, and he couldn't tell what emotion he was in for a moment.

"I went to ask, and the head of the family said that he didn't hurt them at all, and they all ran away not long after your Excellency left." He also took out the jade pendant in his sleeve and handed it to Knowing Shen Zhi, "I told the head of the family that you are an old friend I made in the capital. After he learned that it was a misunderstanding, out of love, he entrusted me to return this jade pendant to you."

Seeing that Shen Zhi refused to take the jade pendant, the gentleman thought she was still sad about not seeing her friend, so he comforted him: "They probably walked along one of the fork roads ahead, since Your Excellency and they are going to the capital, why don't you go to the capital to find them? That may be easier than finding them now."

Thinking about it, there are so many forks in the road, the chance of finding the right one is very small. If you go wrong, it will only increase your troubles. It is better to go back to the capital first, and then everything will be easy to talk about.Anyway, now that Shen Zhi knew that they were fine, he was relieved, but he was alone and had to go on this road without anyone to talk, so he would be a little lonely.

"In that case, then I will take my leave first. Thank you sir for your help today. This jade pendant is right to be a thank you gift. There will be a later date." Maybe the gentleman is afraid that the gentleman will not give such a big gift to his subordinates for such a trivial matter, so he said it without waiting. He replied, after Shen Zhixing saluted, he hurried to the door to lead the horse, swung his whip and left.

That night, Shen Zhi found a nearby inn to rest, and taking advantage of the moonlight, he went to the night party on a whim.Recalling that one day last year, she was also walking with Liu Shuyan on a certain street in the capital, and the owner of the silver house mistook Liu Shuyan for her wife.In a flash, so long has passed... The relationship between her and Liu Shuyan is no longer as simple as it used to be.

Walking all the way, she saw many novel gadgets, but Shen Zhi was not interested in buying them. Instead, the candied haws stand at the end drew her attention.

"Boss, I want a bunch of candied haws."

After paying the money, he went to the restaurant next door to order a pot of wine. Shen Zhi drank alone with candied haws, but seemed a little lonely in the bustle.

However, because Shen Zhi's face is so delicate, no matter whether it is men or women around, as long as they have seen her, they will cast their eyes on her from time to time.Shen Zhizi also felt it. After her mask was taken off by the head of the family, because no one knew her outside, she also kept some selfishness and didn't buy a new one to put on.Even if she is being stared straight at, she still wants to take this rare opportunity to feel the feeling of being upright.

After drinking a pot of wine, he was a little tipsy, so Shen Zhi finally paid the bill and went back to the inn just now.

Early the next morning, when Shen Zhi was about to buy some pastries to fill his stomach, he realized that the money she was carrying had been touched by someone else at some point, and besides the jade pendant left to that gentleman yesterday, she There is really nothing on him that can be exchanged for money.Fortunately, she had already paid for the accommodation when she came last night, so she didn't get troubled by the shopkeeper, and she led the horse back to Beijing smoothly.

But even though she has no money, if she hurry up, she will arrive in the capital in less than three or four days. If she persists, she may not need to spend money.

But when the horses are hungry, they can go to a place with grass to fill their stomachs. If they don’t have a place to live at night, they can find a warm place to make a fire and survive. People don’t eat, and the bumps and fatigue along the way make it difficult to persevere. Two days later, Shen Zhi felt that he really had no energy left.

Originally, I could sell this BMW and buy a slightly inferior horse to exchange for some temporary money, but this horse has been with Shen Zhi for so long, and has been with her through life and death, and has gone through a lot. sell to others.In the end, there was no other way, when leading the road past the entrance of a mansion with a rather ornate facade, Shen Zhi stopped.

Just when she was hesitating whether to knock on the door, the door suddenly opened, and a girl walked in front of her.

Leaving aside the clothes that were expensive at first glance, just from the girl's gestures and demeanor, one can tell at a glance which lady of this family she is appointing instead of a maid.

The young lady also noticed Shen Zhi who stopped at the door at a glance, she walked towards her, nodded politely, and then asked: "Master, did you go to the mansion to find your father?"

Hearing this, Shen Zhi quickly returned a salute and shook his head: "I'm going from Liuzhou to the capital, but I just passed by your mansion, and I don't know your father."

"So that's the case, but my father always likes to form good relationships. Seeing that the young master is extraordinary, why don't you go in and sit down? I think Dad will have a good talk with the young master." The woman kept her eyes on the moment while speaking. Shen Zhi, this not only makes people suspicious, is it because she thinks her father will like Shen Zhi, or does she really want to get to know Shen Zhi...

In the past half a year, after the baptism of cruel battles, Shen Zhi has already faded away the remaining childishness. Now she is standing in front of others, except for her face is still as delicate as before, in terms of temperament, she has changed a lot. People can't match it.She is still wearing men's clothes now, and it is normal for the girl's family to feel a little fond of her when they see her.

But Shen Zhi didn't have much interest in this. She wanted to go to the mansion at first, but she just wanted to try her luck and borrow some money. When she returned to the capital in the future, she would send someone to double the money back.She knew that if the girl's father really liked to make friends, then she would definitely not be able to leave in a short time once she entered; but if the girl actually wanted to get to know her, then it would be even more difficult for her to get out.

After thinking about it, Shen Zhi still politely declined her invitation: "There are still people waiting at Xia's house, so it's inconvenient to delay on the road, so I won't bother you at the house. It's just that the money on Xia's body was stolen by thieves a few days ago. I'm going, I wonder if I can borrow some money from the young lady for the journey? If I can, I will definitely return all the money to the young lady in the future."

"Since that's the case, the little girl won't force her anymore," she said, and the girl whispered a few words to the maid beside her, and the maid went back to the mansion, and then she looked at Shen Zhi again, with a small gleam in her eyes. Feeling disappointed spontaneously, "Young Master, please wait a moment."

"Miss, I am very grateful." Shen Zhi said some polite words to the woman, and after a while, the servant girl came back with a large bag of money.Although there was a lot of money, Shen Zhi didn't refuse, after all, she knew that she would return it sooner or later, so she didn't have to be polite.Of course, the most basic gratitude is still necessary, so after taking the silver, she solemnly bowed to the woman, and then bid farewell to her.

Before leaving, the woman asked Shen Zhi's name, Shen Zhi thought about it, and answered her: "My surname is Shen, and the small characters are clear."

Reciprocity, hearing Shen Zhi's response, the woman also replied: "The little girl's surname is Xie, and her single name is a word Yun. Mr. Shen will meet later."
