Your Majesty, she doesn't want to flip the brand

Zhou Xingzhi only paid attention to the two of them briefly, and soon most of her attention was shifted to the baby in her arms.

"If you're cold, sit behind me, or face me in the other direction." Zhou Xingzhi said, wrapping Ye Ningxuan tighter.

"Fortunately, the wind is not very strong." Ye Ningxuan said, white air spit out from her mouth, and quickly disappeared into the air.

Zhou Xingzhi freed up one hand to straighten the brim of Ye Ningxuan's cloak, "This is the junction of the capital city and Hejian Prefecture, and it is estimated that it will take more than half an hour to reach the larger county town."

"Don't you go directly to the main city?" Ye Ningxuan asked.

"Well, let's take a rest in the county seat first. After all, we are here to relax. If we drive all day, it will be a bit boring." Before Zhou Xingzhi finished speaking, he heard exclamations from ahead.

Zhou Xingzhi frowned and looked in the direction of the voice, a galloping horse appeared in her field of vision.

"Help... help... help..." Some broken cries for help sounded, and if you look carefully, you will find a person hanging on the horse's back. She is desperately holding on to the reins, and almost her whole body is attached to the horse's back.

"Jiang Qianhu, go and see if someone is calling for help." Zhou Xingzhi said, and at the same time pulled the rein to stop the horse he was riding.

"Yes." Jiang Qianhu immediately flicked his whip and rode forward quickly.

He Yue is really going to regret it to death, she shouldn't come out at this time, even if she comes out, she shouldn't ride a horse, even if she rides a horse, she shouldn't pick this group of disobedient horses!

Just when He Yue was about to lose her strength, she vaguely saw someone rushing towards her, and hurriedly shouted for help with the last of her strength.

Jiang Qianhu's superb swordsmanship and riding skills should not be underestimated either. After seeing the situation ahead, he quickly turned his horse in a different direction and moved forward side by side with He Yue.

"Hold the horse tight." Jiang Qianhu said, turning his body flexibly on the horse, and then slowly approached He Yue. When the time was right, he jumped onto He Yue's horse with a sudden leap, and pulled the rein vigorously. Control the horse.

Zhou Xingzhi watched the movement in front of him intently. When the horse was only [-] meters away, Jiang Qianhu barely controlled the horse, and then quickly got off the horse to avoid unnecessary contact with He Yue.

Seeing that she was rescued, He Yue took several deep breaths on the horseback before calming down, and she climbed off the horseback with limp legs, "Thank you...thank you, the strong man, for your rescue!"

"You're welcome, my master asked me to save you." Jiang Qianhu said calmly, looking at the person in front of him calmly.

Judging from the way this person was dressed, he should be from a rich family, but it is a long way from the nearest county seat. If it was a rich family, it would be unreasonable for him to ride a horse here alone, and it was such a coincidence that the horse lost control.

"This strong man, can you take me to meet your master? I want to thank you in person." He Yue felt that Jiang Qianhu looked at her strangely, and looked at him puzzled.

"Wait a minute, I'll ask the master." Before confirming the person's origin, Jiang Qianhu didn't dare to bring anyone in front of Zhou Xingzhi casually.

Zhou Xingzhi was also curious about why someone would come here in the wilderness, and after seeing that He Yue was alone, he walked forward for a certain distance, and looked down at her while riding a horse.

"Thank you son... for saving my life. If you need my help, just tell me that I am from the He family." He Yue said, and couldn't help but glance at Ye Ningxuan's face.If I guessed correctly, the two riding on the horse should be husband and wife, right?They look so good-looking.

"Miss He, why did you appear here?" Zhou Xingzhi asked, with a hint of vigilance in his eyes.

He Yue smiled a little embarrassedly, "I just wanted to go out for a horse race outside the city, but somehow the horse went crazy. If I hadn't met you young masters, I might have broken my leg."

"So that's how it is. Then this... Ms. He, you can repay this life-saving grace with silver." Zhou Xingzhi didn't intend to have anything to do with He Yue, and glanced at her riding outfit.This set of clothes doesn't look very new, it should be the kind that is often worn.

He Yue froze for a moment, as if she hadn't thought that Zhou Xingzhi would not respond to the word He's family, "It's okay, how much silver do you need?"

"Miss He, just look at it." Zhou Xingzhi said.

He Yue thought for a while, and said tentatively, "I don't have much silver taels with me now, if you two don't mind, when I get home, I will take 2000 taels of silver and give them to you?"

"Where is Miss He's home?" Ye Ningxuan, who was wrapped in Zhou Xingzhi's arms, asked.

He Yue blinked, and smiled at Ye Ningxuan, "You two are from other places, I'm from Renqiu He's family."

Renqiu and any family?Dare to name the place in front of the family, it seems that this He family is very important in Renqiu, Ye Ningxuan thought about it in her heart, and smiled back on her face, "It's just right, we are also planning to go to Renqiu, how about just Together?"

"Okay, I don't know how to call you two?" He Yue asked, and introduced herself by the way, "I am the third in the family, you can call me He Yue by my name, and you can also call me He San directly."

"Zhou Zhixing, Ning Xuan." Zhou Xingzhi said the name directly.

"Mr. Zhou and Madam, my horse is frightened. I wonder if the two of you can borrow a horse?" He Yue said. She was actually a little curious about their origins, but seeing their unwillingness to say more, He Yue didn't pursue it either.

After hearing He Yue's address, the expression on Zhou Xingzhi's face eased a lot, and soon he asked his personal guard to free up a horse for He Yue.

After getting back on the horse, He Yue didn't speak much, but silently observed the team. After seeing that the followers were all equipped with weapons, she became more curious.

It's still the eighth day of the Lunar New Year. If you lead a team out at this time, are you going to visit your relatives?Or do you want to start your business early?If it's for business, none of these people seem to have brought any goods, so they must be relatives.

There are also two beautiful girls following behind. I don't know what is the relationship with the leading master, is it a relative or...

After more than half an hour, the crowds on the road became more and more, and after walking forward for a while, they saw Renqiu's city gate.

"Miss, miss, I finally found you, I was so worried about you!" Before reaching the gate of the city, a man dressed as a maid trotted over, crying.

He Yue rubbed her nose, got off the horse and hugged the servant girl, "I'm back, don't worry."

"Guys, why don't you come and sit at my house, so I can invite you to dinner." After talking with the maid, He Yue politely extended the invitation.

"Then I won't be polite." Zhou Xingzhi didn't refuse, she was still thinking about the 2000 taels He Yue was going to give her.

After returning home, He Yue grabbed her parents to explain, and told about her horse being frightened and being rescued by Zhou Xingzhi's entourage.

Master He's experience is stronger than that of He Yue. He knows very well in his heart that if a follower has such great ability, then the person who can be his master must have a lot of background, so his attitude is also very good. Zhou Xingzhi was entertained in the same way as a distinguished guest, and a very sumptuous lunch was prepared.

"This is 5000 taels of silver. Thank you for saving the little girl." Master He was also very generous, and it was obvious that he intended to befriend Zhou Xingzhi.

"You're welcome." Zhou Xingzhi asked Wei Zhong to take out 2000 taels of silver from it, and then returned the rest of the silver to Master He, "Miss He and I have already agreed that 2000 taels of silver will be enough as a reward."

"If that's the case, then I won't force it." Master He couldn't help but stroked his short beard, "According to the accent, are you from the capital? Are there any relatives in Renqiu who come out for the New Year's Eve? "

Zhou Xingzhi put down the teacup in his hand, and said, "Almost, I settled down in the capital, and my hometown is in Hejian. I'll come back and visit during the Chinese New Year."

"It turns out that these people are from Hejian. If I have time in the future, I will definitely come to visit." Master He said, according to Zhou Xingzhi's reaction, he raised some topics, and after a meal, they had a very happy conversation.

After hearing that Zhou Xingzhi was going to stay in Renqiu for one night, he directly took over the board and lodging, "I happen to have a yard nearby that I can enter twice. Although it is not big, it is still more comfortable than an inn."

"My lord, don't rush to refuse. They saved my little girl's life. As a father, I naturally have to entertain several of you." Master He said before Zhou Xingzhi opened his mouth.

"Then thank you very much." Master He said so much, Zhou Xingzhi followed suit.

Just when Zhou Xingzhi was about to go out, there was a loud noise from the door, and a team of government servants with knives rushed in. Judging by the posture, it seemed that the visitor was not friendly.

"Master He, your eldest son and second son gathered to fight in Qiuyue Pavilion, causing people to be disabled. I hope that Master He will come with us." The head catcher clasped his fists and said politely.

"Liu Butou, what are you talking about, my eldest and second child are in Qiuyue Pavilion?" The expression on Master He's face became a little strange, "Butou, did you make a mistake? I will go to those romantic places, and I will not fight with people."

"It's hard to say. The two sons have already been taken to the Yamen anyway. If Mr. He doesn't believe it, you can come to the Yamen." The headhunter said, "By the way, the county magistrate received an anonymous letter, saying it was He The master used some means to forge the account book to evade taxes, and I hope that the master He will show us the account book, and it is best to come with us."

The author has something to say: rub hands
