The majestic sister-in-law of the Red Chamber

As soon as he thought of Lin Tian's invitation, Situ Meng's heart became very hot. He simply ignored the Xuzhou Governor and others who came to greet him. If the matter is dealt with tomorrow morning, he will quickly return to the dragon boat.

The gift list of Governor of Xuzhou had already been prepared, but what was left to him was the back of Situ Meng walking away quickly, which made him completely confused for a while, and he was even more disturbed, wondering whether he Already offended this loyal and obedient prince with a deep background.

So, he could only hold Xiao Chengzi with good words, took out a 100 tael silver note without hesitation, quickly stuffed it into Xiao Chengzi's hands, and asked in a low voice: "Elder-in-law, what is the meaning of this, my lord?" ? You see, the next official will continue to wait here? Or?"

"Ahem..." Xiao Chengzi coughed softly, looked around, and replied in a low voice: "It's nothing, but the county magistrate of Jining Mansion at the previous stop is really annoying! Come to see the prince Not to mention giving valuable things such as real gold and silver, antique calligraphy and paintings, or some novelty and interesting things imported, the worst thing is to be empty-handed!

But he actually gave the prince a basket of garlic and a basket of salted duck eggs, and he also called it that Jining Prefecture is poor and poor. Apart from these, he really didn't have any valuables, so he could only use these two local products to express his affection.The prince was really pissed off by his actions. It's been more than two days, but he still hasn't calmed down yet!Therefore, I advise you, if you are also preparing such local products, ahem... it is better to replace them as soon as possible! "

"What? Then the county magistrate of Jining Mansion actually gave the prince garlic and salted duck eggs? This is too...too..." After hearing this, the Governor of Xuzhou was really stunned by the coquettish operation of his colleague. At that time, I froze in place, not knowing how to describe this friend with whom I had a fairly good relationship.

Although one of them works in Shandong and the other works in Jiangsu, but because they belong to the same department, they also worshiped the same teacher, and the waterway traffic on the canal is developed, and the two places travel very frequently. His two sleeves are clean but his ability is good. He still admires his colleagues who have governed the Jining Mansion for three years, but after hearing what Xiao Chengzi said, he was speechless to him, thinking:

"It seems that this is another person who is stupid in studying! No matter how well you manage the place, it is not enough for the prince to say that you are not good! It seems that Brother Ning has no hope for the official evaluation at the end of the year. It is difficult to stay here in Jining as a county magistrate.

Seeing Prince Zhongshun's annoyed look, and casually crooked his mouth in front of the emperor, Brother Ning might end up in the bitter cold of the Northeast, or the barbarians in the Southwest!It seems that I have to think about this gift list when I go back, but I just don't know what the prince likes?It's really hard to die! "

When the governor of Xuzhou wanted to continue to inquire about Situ Meng's specific preferences with Xiao Chengzi, he looked up and found that he had already left quickly. It was empty.Therefore, he could only quickly get into the carriage he had come in, hurried back to the mansion, and had a good discussion with his staff and cronies.

Situ Meng didn't pay attention to the matter of Xuzhou Fuyin at all. After meeting with someone in a hurry, he quickly ran back to Lin Tian's room and asked excitedly, "Xiaotian, are you ready? Let's Let's go now?"

"Mengmeng, you are in such a hurry! This breakfast has just been eaten! It is still very early at noon, and the restaurant is probably not open yet! Even if you arrive in Xuzhou City, you will not be able to eat!" Lin Tian The corners of his mouth raised slightly, and he said with a playful smile.

"Hehe..." Situ Meng smirked, didn't think there was any problem at all, and said firmly: "Then wait until noon before going to the restaurant, let's go to Xuzhou City first! Just the two of us! One of the others None!"

"How can I do that? You are the loyal prince, the imperial envoy, and you go out without guards and servants. What if you get hurt by someone who doesn't have long eyes?" Lin Tian looked at Situ Meng with a smile, laughing road.

"Hey..." Situ Meng smiled wickedly, hugged Lin Tian, ​​and said, "Isn't there Xiao Tiantian who is by my side to protect me! I have nothing to be afraid of, whoever is so young Eyes, if you dare to move a finger of mine, we will pat him into meatloaf!"

As Situ Meng said, imitating Lin Tian's way of wielding a mace, he looked fierce, and as he spoke, the two laughed together.

"Okay, okay! Let's stop making trouble! Let's talk about business, let's bring Xiaotao, Xiaochengzi, and the guards who came out of Beijing with us before, we can't do everything by ourselves Come on! Are you going to turn yourself into a package shelf when you come back later?" Lin Tian reached out and tapped Situ Meng's eyebrows, and said with a smile.

"What parcel shelf? Why can't I understand what you said, Xiao Tiantian?" Situ Meng asked with a puzzled face.

"Okay, don't worry about it so much! I've already told them to get ready, change your clothes, and let's go!" Lin Tian said, took out a set of clothes and stuffed them for Situ Meng, and changed quickly himself. Put on men's clothing.

When Situ Meng followed Lin Tian and a group of people entered Xuzhou City in a carriage, Situ Meng was still a little dizzy. This day gave him too much stimulation, and now he has been holding tightly. Zhu Lin Tian refused to let go of his hand, fearing that all this was just a dream he had.

"Okay, we have already entered the city, we should go down too, don't you want to hold my hand on this street!" Lin Tian said, holding the folding fan in his hand to pretend He knocked Situ Meng on the head.

"Hey..." Situ Meng smirked and said, "Little Tian, ​​what you said before is true, right? You really like me, right! I'm not dreaming, am I?"

"Yes, yes, yes! It's true! I really like you!" Lin Tian looked at him with a funny face, then slowly leaned over, and kissed him lightly on the cheek, before Situ Meng could respond. The moment he came over, he quickly opened the curtain and jumped out of the carriage.

It turned out that they had already arrived at the place, the carriage had already stopped, and the guard who acted as the driver had called once, but Situ Meng didn't notice it at all.

Situ Meng, who had been surrounded by happiness all the time, followed Lin Tian in a bewildered manner, visiting shops and small stalls one after another. At this moment, many guards behind him were also carrying all kinds of packaging bags in their hands.At this moment, Situ Meng finally understood what Lin Tian meant by the package shelf.

"Bang! Hey..." A low cry came from Situ Meng's side.

It turned out that when he passed by the entrance of a small alley, someone jumped out of it, but before he could touch Situ Meng, he was pushed out by the guards and fell to the ground.

"Little thief, let's see where you go this time!" A dozen or so burly men quickly ran towards them from the other end of the alley, and their target was obviously the man who almost ran into Situ Meng.

"Hmph! Didn't I just take a broken bag from you! As for chasing me for several streets, don't you let it go!" said the man who fell on the ground, suddenly threw the package in his hand at Situ Meng, and shouted loudly: " Young master, I got what you wanted for you, and I don’t want the rest of the payment! Let me go now!”

After finishing speaking, he quickly got up from the ground, quickly got into a small alley not far away, and disappeared in front of everyone in the blink of an eye, as fast as a gust of wind.

Even though Situ Meng was very skilled, but after all he had basically zero experience in the world, he subconsciously caught the package that was thrown over him, and by the time he realized it, the boy had been completely lost, and even if he tried to chase him, it would be futile.

After all, from the looks of it, he was definitely a habitual offender, and he must have researched the route before making the move. As long as he avoided everyone's sight, finding him would be like finding a needle in a haystack.

"Master, are you alright?" Xiao Chengzi quickly stepped forward and quickly took the package from Situ Meng's hand, fearing that there might be something dangerous inside.

At this time, a dozen or so burly men chasing the boy had already passed through the alley and came to Situ Meng and the others. They could hear the boy's shouts clearly before, so they couldn't help but say Just quickly surround them.

One of them, who looked like a leader, was two meters tall, rushed towards Xiao Chengzi without saying a word, trying to snatch the package in his hand with one hand, but raised a fist as big as a casserole with the other hand, Without mercy, it fell towards Xiao Chengzi's body.

Lin Tian at the side mercilessly poked the man's Xiasan road with the folding fan in his hand.You know, the folding fan in Lin Tian's hand is not ordinary, it is completely formed by the condensation of metal supernatural powers, if she pokes it right now, this person will probably be crippled immediately.

Seeing that the situation was not good, the burly man immediately retreated quickly to avoid the fatal blow, but he did not expect that the folding fan in Lin Tian's hand instantly changed its course and shot towards the back of his knees , Hearing a "plop", the big man's legs softened from the beating, and he fell to his knees in an instant.

The passers-by were stunned by this series of changes. They really couldn't figure out how many actions someone could make in the blink of an eye, and looked at Lin Tian, ​​who was the smallest among Situ Meng's group, again. Everything has changed.

"Little brother, please be merciful! Cough, cough... Huchi... Huchi..." Just as Lin Tian's fan attacked the big man again, an old voice sounded hurriedly, accompanied by the big man Gasping sound.

"Master, the thief who stole our package just now said that they ordered that thief to steal! We must not let them go!" A subordinate pointed at Lin Tian and his party, and said quickly to the old man who just arrived .

"Yes, sir! If we don't teach this group of guys a lesson this time, then how can our Cao Gang gain a foothold in this canal's one-acre three-point land! Wouldn't it make the gang of water bandits in Dongting Lake laugh out loud? Already!" Another subordinate also said angrily.

"That's right, the boss was beaten by them just now, we must not let them go!"

Many big men spoke out one after another, glaring at Lin Tian and the others one by one, and they held the sticks and weapons tightly in their hands, as if they were about to rush up to fight Lin Tian and the others in the next moment.

"That's enough! Stop arguing!" The old man finally calmed down his breathing, bowed his hands politely towards Situ Meng and Lin Tian, ​​and said:

"I don't know which family the two young masters belong to? Dare to ask, where did our Cao Gang offend the two of you, and let the two of you entertain us like this?"

"Hehe... finally someone who can speak human language!" Situ Meng had already suppressed his anger at this moment, snorted coldly, looked at the sincere old man, and said, "Let me tell you the truth! Whether it was the little thief just now or the Cao Gang you mentioned, I have never heard of it, young master, and I don’t care! This thing was simply thrown out by the little thief just now to escape, and it has nothing to do with the young master. !"

"So that's how it is! This servant is ignorant, and I asked you to make amends! I don't know if you can return this package! Although there are no particularly valuable items in it, there are guides and some identity documents. Very troublesome!" The old man said politely.

"Hmph! Did you say that this package is yours? What proof do you have?" Xiao Chengzi said angrily, still in shock.

At the moment when the casserole-sized fist was about to hit him just now, although he had tried his best to turn his body to avoid it, but because the distance was too close, he could barely escape the vital point. If it hadn't been for Lin Tian to rescue him in time , I am afraid that at this moment he has been beaten to the ground long ago.

"Boy, you are talking nonsense with your eyes open. You have to pretend to be confused! We chased the thief all the way here just now. It's not like you didn't see it. What proof do you need? You didn't want to return the package on purpose. Give it to us!" A big man shouted angrily.

The old man at the head didn't have any intention of getting angry, and asked seriously: "I don't know how this young master wants to prove it?"

"This..." Xiao Chengzi turned her head to look at Lin Tian and Situ Meng, not knowing how to answer for a while, Situ Meng hated his teeth itching because these people interrupted his first date with Lin Tian, I didn't want to pay attention to the other party at all, and finally Lin Tian said:

"Well, let's find a place to sit down and tell me what's in this package. If everything matches the number, then it will be returned to the original owner!"

"You guys are deceiving people too much!" The burly men glared one by one, staring at Lin Tian and the others.

"Okay!" The old man agreed very simply, pointed to a not-low-grade restaurant in front, and said: "Then let's go to the Jingyang Tower in front, where the sheep and hidden fish are a must in Xuzhou city." Woolen cloth!"

"Okay!" Lin Tian nodded indifferently, and led the sullen Situ Meng to take the lead towards the Jingyang Tower, but he didn't notice that there was a strange look in the eyes of the old man watching them holding hands.
