This Ge Simao is only seventeen or eighteen years old, not tall and strong, but he is very clever. He hurried up from the capital a few days ago, and asked along the way if the Rong family and his party were staying in the inn, and almost missed them.

Now that I saw that the lady had taken the confidence, God relaxed, and the whole person almost collapsed.

Wen Yuan personally picked up Ge Simao, who was in the dust, and asked, "What is so urgent?" ”

While asking, he couldn't help but secretly ponder, it was already late March at this time, and if it was a big deal, I didn't know if Wen Heng was admitted to the Jinshi, and as for the official examination, there should be no problem. However, even if he fails the exam, he will not look for death and life, and he will wait for the next time to make persistent efforts, and nothing should happen.

What's more, this is someone from the Shu family who came to deliver a letter, not the Duan family. Could it be that Yanqing's family affairs have changed? Wen Yuan looked at Ge Simao with a puzzled expression, waiting for him to answer.

After listening to his uncle's question, Ge Simao did not answer directly, but looked around first, and saw that the clerk of Dali Temple was far away, and there were only Qu Rong 11 and Rong 12 sent by General Duan Da nearby, which were considered his own people, so he sighed and replied: "The lady of Taichang Shaoqing's family was lost during the Qujiang banquet. ”

Li Ming was promoted to Sipin Taichang Shaoqing last year, and he is still unmarried and has only one daughter, Li Manman.

While the two were talking, Yan Bing had already read a page of the letter hastily, and the look on her face changed from surprised and puzzled to full of anger, and when she talked about her brother, she was so angry that she called him by name, raised her arm and stuffed the letter to her side and handed it to her husband, and said angrily: "Look at what good things Xingyi has done!" He's really ...... Confused! ”

Wen Yuan took the browse and saw that Li Manman was not mentioned at the beginning of the letter. Instead, in chronological order, he first talked about the classmate who was in the first place after the spring list, and Yanqing chose to enter the Shi and the first with Wen Heng.

Although this person is a commoner, he is a wealthy family, and he has been involved in the eyes of the emperor's uncle King Chu, not only Shun lì After the Jinshi, he must also be worry-free, with Yanqing, who has both parents and hidden worries, and his identity is quite suitable.

The two families immediately began to look at each other, and Wen Heng invited Qujiang to have a banquet to enhance friendship. Seeing this, the older Li Manman must have felt self-pity and began to feel anxious again, and used the excuse to show favor to Xingyi.

Xingyi didn't have a relationship with her, and in desperation, he wanted to talk about his cousin's home. It's just that Li Manman's identity as a concubine is really not good, and she can't be the wife of others, if she doesn't want to be a concubine, she can only be a continuation.

"Sure enough, it was because of family affairs." Wen Yuan couldn't help but sigh after reading the first page.

"Yes, he actually chose his own Qianniuwei colleague who wanted to tell Yanqing for Manman's father!" Yan Bing was so angry that she just wanted to beat people, and she didn't choose to say anything, "This bear child! Why did you forget about Li Fang before? What about a high status or a willingness to feel sorry for someone? Can an old man in his fifties with three sons and two daughters compare with him, a county boy who has not yet reached the weak crown? ”

...... bear child? Wen Yuan was stunned, he didn't understand the word very well. However, this did not affect his understanding of Yan Bing's meaning, and Ying He said: "The marriage should be the words of the matchmaker at the behest of his parents, and he really shouldn't interfere in this matter." ”

"I took it upon myself to wrap a bag of jewelry and run away from home, hum." Yan Bing saw the first half of the letter on the second page and thought that the "big event" mentioned by Ge Simao meant that Li Manman ran away from home, and while walking into the house, she scolded and was not overly anxious, because she felt that she should be able to recover it by gathering the strength of several families.

Looking back, he was dumbfounded, Li Manman got rid of the maid by virtue of the large number of people when he was in Qujiang, and ran away in a bad mood, and the Li family looked for people everywhere, and learned that night that she got into the carriage of a well-dressed middle-aged woman.

When he found out the route of the carriage the next day and ran to the woman's house, the courtyard was already empty, Li Ming immediately sent someone to report to the official, and after a trip to the Chang'an County Ya, he got another bad news - the middle-aged woman was Diao's comrade!

Li Manman's grandmother is a white-skinned, brown-haired, blue-eyed beautiful orchid, so she is also very outstanding, and she has studied dance and piano skills under Hu Xuan Dance all year round.

However, as soon as he saw the words "Diao's fellow party", it was Wen Yuan's turn to grit his teeth and curse in a low voice: "Guo Rugang, this straw bag!" Hehe, what a capability! "I can't catch the case that is handed to me, and I also got into trouble and pit my wife and cousin, this person should be cleared out and don't be an official and harm the people.

Diao's had already entered the Chang'an County Ya before he left, and under the punishment of the servants, he pried open the residence of the □□ and replaced the party, Wen Yuan did not arrest people directly in order to avoid startling the snake, but asked Guo Rugang to arrange for the foreign officials to squat.

"They all blame me, I thought that they would not send people to the capital and go back empty-handed, and I calculated that I should abduct people again during the Flower Dynasty Festival, and I wanted to send someone to follow behind to find out the route of the Luoren, and in one fell swoop, I took their lair...... Unexpectedly, alas! Wen Yuan gently pinched his wife's fingertips and apologized in frustration.

Unexpectedly, Guo Rugang actually dispatched the squatting officials at the critical moment to help Princess Chu find the lost cat, guide the suspect to escape, and even put a Li Manman in the case of a failure!

Xingyi also wrote: After torture and questioning Diao again, she finally confessed that she was going back and forth to the capital from the northwest, and the thin woman surnamed Zhu came from the south of the Yangtze River to send Wu Nong's soft-spoken little family Jasper to Beijing, and often took the amorous orchid back to her hometown by the way.

This letter was sent in a hurry, hoping that Wen Yuan and Yan Bing, who were going south all the way, would pay more attention to the passers-by around them, and if they failed to gain anything on the way, they would ask their sister-in-law to go to the Qinlou Chu Pavilion a few more times after arriving in Yangzhou to see if they could meet Li Manman.

Yan Bing was anxious for her cousin, and she didn't realize that it was unseemly for her brother to ask her husband to go to the Qinglou, so she only sighed: "This is really a disaster from the sky!" Qinlou Chu Pavilion, even if she is found, will she be able to live a good life in the future? ”

Then she was puzzled and asked, "Why are these people so bold?" The daughter of the official of the Sipin Imperial Court also dared to be captured, it was really terrible! ”

Wen Yuan listened to her doubts, and didn't answer because he didn't want to speak ill of the sisterhood. only said in his heart: Because Li Manman is just a servant, how can he be compared with a serious concubine.

"Well, maybe let her go, even if you don't have it, don't worry too much," Wen Yuan gently touched the end of his wife's hair and said with relief, "Your cousin is good-looking and can be regarded as a strange thing, and she won't be tarnished lightly, maybe it's too late." ”

"Even if the reputation of innocence is gone," Yan Bing was still full of regret, and said with a wry smile, "Alas, I hope we can meet on the road quickly." ”

"Hmm." Wen Yuan nodded, worried about his wife's mood, and did not say more. I only calculated in my heart that I would be able to arrive in Yangzhou at the end of April and early May, which was the Dragon Boat Festival.

That Zhu family can just spend two or three months to make a long adjustment, and when the Dragon Boat Festival is fighting flowers and grass, if he can take the stage as a Qing Qi person and win the admiration of everyone and then sell it, he will be able to double the profit.

It's just that I don't know if Li Manman, who has a slightly fierce temper, can withstand the insult and wait for rescue.
