[Red Mansion] A little chef came to the Grand View Garden

"Sister Liu Mei, this is you, but you can't get in the way of Second Master Bao's affection, so you have to make a trip!"

Liu Mei was sitting on the cart, and the person sitting beside the coachman outside was Ming Yan.Mingyan thought she had guessed what Liu Mei was thinking, so she asked Liu Mei triumphantly.

Liu Mei lazily "hummed" and ignored Mingyan.

Ming Yan laughed outside, "Sister Liu Mei, in fact, our fool is such a person, he has affection for everyone, don't you think so!"

Liu Mei hummed again—didn't she promise Baoyu that she would go to Red Sandalwood Castle to visit Jiang Yuhan!

She came out for another purpose.

Ever since Jin Chuan'er died last time and the system told her about the self-healing function of this world, Liu Mei has been secretly thinking about what she should do.

Because of this kind of pondering, Liu Mei didn't want to let the system know, so she would only think about it secretly for a while in the dead of night when it was confirmed that the system was not online.

The result of serious thinking is that, first, she should work hard to create various changes in this world, or join hands with others to create changes. It is best to make changes beyond recognition, so that the world is tired of coping and it is too late to repair. Maybe there will be a glimmer of hope; secondly, she should have a better understanding of this world - that's why she promised Baoyu last night to come to Red Sandalwood Castle.In name, she was visiting Jiang Yuhan, but in fact she wanted to come and see if this world... has any boundaries.

The Red Chamber is a wonderful book with a huge framework, but the living environment of the characters in the book is very small: only two mansions and one garden.

So Liu Mei was whimsical, and secretly guessed, since this is a world based on the red building and capable of self-healing, could this be a virtual time and space with boundaries that are different from the real world?

As for Red Sandalwood Castle, twenty miles away from the outskirts of Beijing, it seems to be the furthest boundary near the capital as mentioned in the book.

Based on this bold hypothesis, Liu Mei decided to take this opportunity to come to the Red Sandalwood Castle to see for herself.Not to mention the Red Sandalwood Castle, if she had the opportunity to go to Jinling, Yangzhou, Gusu and Ping'an... she would also like to go.

Liu Mei went out from Rongguo Mansion early in the morning. At the beginning, more than ten miles were official roads, and the carts traveled very fast. Later, the road narrowed and became a bit rough and difficult to navigate.As we walked, the sun was already high, and the weather began to gradually heat up.

"Sister Liumei, Red Sandalwood Castle is just ahead." Mingyan was outside the cart.

Hearing this, Liu Mei raised the curtain of the car slightly, and looked out of the cart intently.I saw a village in the distance, located at the foot of the mountain.The green mountains behind the village, like a fortified screen, neatly block the Red Sandalwood Fort.

"Mingyan, is there a way to go further?" Liu Mei asked Mingyan.

"Yes! Look, isn't this the official way to go to Ping'an Prefecture?"

Liu Mei looked in the direction of Mingyan's finger, and saw a straight and neat official road in front of her, stretching towards the screen-like mountain, rising straight all the way to the top of the mountain, as if cut off from it.

"It looks...it seems a bit fake!"

Liu Mei thought to herself.

In a blink of an eye, they arrived at the village entrance of Red Sandalwood Castle, Ming Yan came to ask Liu Mei to get off the car.

When Liu Mei got out of the car, she took out a long bill from her bosom and slapped it in Ming Yan's hand. "Mingyan, this time you don't have to post the money yourself. Later, if you post the money, they won't accept your favor!"

Seeing such a long purchasing agent list, Mingyan couldn't help but feel bitter, but she didn't dare to resist, so she obediently kept the purchasing agent list in her sleeve, turned around and went with the driver.

Liu Mei scrutinized the official road "leading" to Ping'an Prefecture for a while, and finally gave up the idea of ​​walking over to have a look - as the saying goes, watching the mountain run dead horse - without transportation, she was afraid that it would be too late. It took a day and a night to get to the place where the official road seemed "cut off".

So Liu Mei turned around and entered the village of Red Sandalwood Castle, asking the old people in the village where Jiang Yuhan lived.

Seeing her sweet appearance and young age, the local villagers kindly pointed them out to her.

Jiang Yuhan's residence is a yard with white walls and black tiles in the village. It is located in a corner of the village and looks very quiet.Behind the yard is the towering green hill like a screen.

Liu Mei stepped forward and knocked on the door.

Before coming here, Baoyu had explained that to meet Jiang Yuhan in Red Sandalwood Castle, all he had to do was claim to be Jiang Yuhan's "relatives of the Zhen Mansion in Jingzhou".At the same time, Baoyu also gave Liu Mei a token, and told her to take it out when she saw Jiang Yuhan, and the other party would naturally know that she was Baoyu's person.

A middle-aged man's voice asked inside, and Liu Mei followed Baoyu's words, saying that she was Jiang Yuhan's "relative of the Zhenfu in Jingzhou".

There was a moment of silence inside the door.

Probably the concierge went in and asked Jiang Qiguan?Liu Mei secretly guessed.

"Then please come in!"

There was a sound of "huola" from inside, and the door was bolted down.Liu Mei cautiously pushed the door open, took two steps forward, and suddenly realized that something was wrong, before she had time to back up, she heard a "bang", the door behind her was closed, and then there was a "clang" sound above her head.

Liu Mei was startled, raised her head, and saw a big knife directly above her head falling towards her Tianling Gai, and a sword came out from the other side of the oblique stab, holding the knife firmly.

Liu Mei hadn't cared about the softness of her feet, she had already shrunk her head, got out from under the sword, and only remembered after taking two steps—oh my god!This time it was really ruined by Baoyu.

The "passionate and righteous" Baoyu finally revealed Jiang Yuhan's whereabouts to Prince Zhongshun when he was in Qingxu Temple last time, so he was always uneasy, so he begged Liu Mei to come over secretly to visit, to see See if Jiang Yuhan was "treated harshly" by Prince Zhongshun.

Looking at Baoyu, Liu Mei felt very guilty in her heart, and she really wanted to take a look at this never-before-seen land boundary, so she agreed.

But who would have imagined that this would be such a situation here—it was so dangerous that she was just a little bit short of being fatally injured.

"This is not some additional task!" Liu Mei's heart trembled.

Unexpectedly, her system went online, and she answered calmly: "No!"

"Coming to Red Sandalwood Castle is your own choice and has nothing to do with your quest line. Therefore, the system will not provide any support for this."

Standard official response.

After finishing speaking, the system immediately went offline, as if it was a waste of time to say one more word to Liu Mei.

"Don't you support me mentally?" Liu Mei was so depressed that she didn't hear the slightest bit of resentment in the system's tone.

Look at the knife and sword behind her again: the man holding the knife is a man in his early thirties, with a thick short beard on his chin, and blue scars on his face, which seems to have been traumatized; He is just a weak crown, handsome and heroic. Compared with Baoyu, he should be a son of a family with a heroic spirit.

The man with the knife stared at the person opposite, "Brother Liu, why are you stopping me?"

The sword-wielding boy smiled and said, "Brother Ziying, she is just a young girl, and she will not pose any threat to us. Why do you want to hurt people so much?"

Ziying——Feng Ziying?

Liu Mei thought to herself, nine out of ten it is this guy, no wonder the voice sounds familiar.This person should have been there when Baoyu, Xue Pan and the others ate wine in Hongshun Tower last time.

Then the one opposite, Brother Liu?

Liu Mei sized him up carefully, the more he looked at it, the more familiar it became. After looking at it for a long time, he finally realized that this person's eyebrows and eyes were somewhat similar to those of Wang Shirong in Beijing.

Could it be Liu Xianglian?

Liu Mei remembered that when she was studying the dishes of the Red Chamber, she watched the TV series of the [-] version of the Red Chamber from beginning to end. She remembered that the two roles of King Jing and Liu Xianglian in the TV series were played by the same handsome pot.Both characters are very vivid.

No, this world of Red Mansions was also influenced by the 87 TV series, so Liu Xianglian and the King of Beijing are set to grow very similar.

After a while, she confirmed—this person is indeed Liu Xianglian!

Behind Liu Mei, footsteps sounded, and immediately she stood behind her, and then a soft and soft voice sounded softly, "Brother Xianglian is right, Brother Feng, this is just a little girl who runs errands for others, Why should we have trouble with her?"

This voice taught Liu Mei to listen to her ears, almost like the sound of nature.

Liu Mei turned around and looked back at the young man who came out with his hands behind his back, only then did he realize that the person who came out was indeed somewhat indistinguishable from male and female, but he was also extremely beautiful.It was the Qiguan who sang Xiaodan, Jiang Yuhan, who she had glimpsed once in Hongshun Tower.

That day in Hongshun Tower, Liu Mei accidentally ran into Qiguan and Baoyu coming out together.But that time the restaurant was dimly lit, Liu Mei didn't pay much attention to Qiguan's appearance, she just paid attention to the red sweat scarf tied around Baoyu's waist.

But now under the brilliant daylight, seeing Jiang Yuhan, Liu Mei couldn't help shaking—this Jiang Yuhan is definitely not an ordinary actor who serves people with sex.

I saw that his complexion was porcelain white and smooth, without any blemishes.A melon-seeded face does have a woman's softness, but the pair of eyes are dark and deep, and when the eyes slowly sweep across the willow eyebrows, they naturally reveal an elegant and graceful demeanor.

This guy has a 360-degree, no dead angle, and a self-contained beauty function!Liu Mei was secretly stunned.

In this small courtyard, Jiang Yuhan stood with her hands behind her back and smiled warmly. With just one look, she calmed the irritable Feng Ziying, encouraged Liu Xianglian, who was brave enough to do justice, and made this Liu Mei, who is too strong in facial control, unable to bear it. Live a little star-eyed.

From Liu Mei's point of view, Jiang Yuhan must be the leader of the three people in this small courtyard.

She guessed right. Hearing what Jiang Yuhan said, Feng Ziying first put down the purple gold back sword in his hand, and Liu Xianglian held a pair of male and female mandarin duck swords, which were also put back into their sheaths by Liu Xianglian.

"Little girl, you are startled!" Jiang Yuhan comforted Liu Mei gently, "Are you sent by the second son of the Rongguo Mansion to deliver a message?"

At this point, Liu Mei's heart fell back into her stomach a little bit.

She bowed her knees slightly, bowed to Jiang Yuhan and the others, and said only: "Yes, our second master Bao accidentally revealed the location of Young Master Jiang's new residence a few days ago. Come personally to apologize to Mr. Jiang, so he ordered me to come and visit, and hope that Mr. Jiang is well."

Saying that, Liu Mei took out the neatly folded Qian Xiangluo from her sleeve, and said, "Second Master Bao said, after seeing this, you will definitely trust my identity."

Baoyu originally suggested to Liu Mei to tie the sweat scarf around her waist, but she took back this bad idea after a moment of jealousy.

When Jiang Yuhan saw Qian Xiangluo, she didn't answer her, just nodded and said, "Of course I can trust it."

Seeing this, Liu Mei had no choice but to put Qian Xiangluo away.

Feng Ziying next to him couldn't help but sneered: "That brother in the Rong Mansion is really useless. He told me not to talk about Qiguan's residence casually for a long time, and he revealed it to others in just one sentence. If it wasn't for Qiguan Compromise... Then, wouldn't that be..."

When Liu Mei heard the words "begging for perfection", she couldn't help thinking that Baoyu gave the address of Red Sandalwood Castle to Prince Zhongshun, and Jiang Yuhan had always been an actress in the Prince's mansion, so what happened to Prince Zhongshun when he came to him? What?

She couldn't hold back a little, and the guesses in her mind always went astray towards the scandal.

"You can't say that," Jiang Yuhan heard Feng Ziying say this, shook her head with a smile, and said, "To buy and sell real estate, you have to sign a contract with the government. If someone else has the heart, there will be traces to follow. I didn't expect this It’s just a place to hide, just to be quiet.”

Hearing what Jiang Yuhan said, Liu Mei's impression of him improved a bit, and she felt that this person was more reasonable - if someone really did something bad, it must be the fault of that Prince Pippi Shrimp.

While speaking, there was the buzzing of pigeon whistles in the sky.Jiang Yuhan stretched out his hand, and a carrier pigeon came down and landed in his palm.Jiang Yuhan moved skillfully, and unwrapped the messenger cloth tied to the pigeon's leg.

Liu Mei felt very embarrassed for a moment, knowing that Jiang Yuhan and the others gathered here were probably plotting something.It was inconvenient for her to hear, but it seemed that she couldn't get away for a while, so she could only turn her back and stare at the wall of Jiang's courtyard, counting the tiles on the wall intently.

"He is coming out of Beijing now!" Jiang Yuhan said calmly, "Alone!"

"Alone?" Feng Ziying and Liu Xianglian looked at each other, Feng Ziying said: "This is a rare opportunity!"

Jiang Yuhan also nodded, and said, "Let's all discuss together for a better life..."

As he spoke, the three people in the courtyard looked at Liu Mei in unison.

"Well, I don't need you to do anything, I'll go by myself!" Liu Mei felt very good, instead of being pushed and shoved and caught in an extremely embarrassing way, it would be better for her to surrender gracefully first.

Jiang Yuhan was rather apologetic, and said softly: "My lady, I'm really sorry. We didn't have the slightest malice towards the second son of the Jia family, and you, the lady. It's just that the matter is very important here, so I can only ask the lady to stay in the house for a while. .”

As he said that, Jiang Yuhan bowed his body and said to Liu Mei, "Please follow me!" After speaking, he should take the first step and go to the backyard of Jiang's house.

Jiang Yuhan spoke beautifully, but the two behind him were not fuel-efficient lamps. They didn't say a word, but one held a knife and the other clenched the hilt.

Liu Mei obediently followed Jiang Yuhan out, walked through the courtyard, and came to the back of the house.

Jiang Yuhan opened a door to let Liu Mei in, and then leaned back again.

When Jiang Yuhan first opened the door, Liu Mei thought it was an ordinary house, a servant's room, or simply a woodshed.

But when she took a closer look, she found that this room turned out to be the kitchen.

There is a complete stove in the room, firewood is piled up in the corner, and all kinds of game are hung on the beams above the head, such as pheasants, hares, deer, robes... Probably because of the hot weather, these are marinated in advance and then hung on the wall. Air-dried on beams.

No wonder, there is a smell of bacon in this room.

Jiang Yuhan has been by Liu Mei's side all the time, secretly paying attention to her.Seeing her refreshed as soon as she entered this kitchen, Jiang Yuhan pondered for a moment, remembered something, and immediately said softly: "Girl, may I ask your name?"
