"Master, the street just sent a message saying that the carving master you're looking for has been found and is currently in Jiangxi City." Xiaobai handed over a letter with both hands. "Here's the specific address."
The authenticity of the jade token has always been a thorn in the hearts of Xiao Yunyu and Li Nian.
Xiao Yunyu even felt that it was because of the fake jade token that his wife no longer trusted him.
"Jiangxi City is in the southeast. We can take a detour there on the way." Xiao Yunyu looked at Li Nian, "Now that we know where that person is, let's find out where Wen Luoxin's jade token came from."
Li Nian nodded, then looked at Xiao Yunchen and Li Sisi: "What do you think?"
Li Sisi immediately said, "Then let's go. It's a good opportunity to find out how Wen Luoxin got such great ability to make an identical fake jade token."
Xiao Yunchen also agreed: "We are here to have fun, it doesn't matter where we go. I heard that Jiangxi City has beautiful scenery. I once had a classmate who worked in Jiangxi City."
Li Sisi immediately responded: "That's great, we can also visit your friends."
The group replanned their next itinerary.
As for Wen Luoqing, all he had to do was "accidentally" let her escape when the officials were escorting her to the capital. Xiao Yunyu arranged for Xiaobai to handle this matter.
The day before they decided to leave, the Liu family next door wanted to invite them to a dinner to apologize for what happened at the wedding that day.
She originally wanted to refuse, but Li Sisi still wanted to see what the "beauty" that everyone was talking about looked like.
So, I agreed.
The time was scheduled for the night before departure, and the location was right next door, which was convenient.
The master of the Liu family has white hair and beard. Although he looks old, he is in good spirits.
Standing next to him was a woman in a magpie-blue brocade dress. Perhaps to match the look of Mr. Liu standing beside her, she dressed a little old-fashionedly, but her facial features were three-dimensional. Although she didn't wear excessive makeup, she still had a charming look.
Even though she was wearing heavy clothes in winter, her figure was still well-proportioned.
"My name is Wan'er. Nice to meet the Crown Prince, the Crown Prince's wife, the Second Young Master, and the Second Madam." She bent down gracefully, and when she raised her eyes, there was a hint of shyness and respect in her eyes.
Li Sisi watched her every move with a carefree gaze.
So it’s this type?
Li Sisi was a little disappointed, she felt it was a bit artificial.
At the dinner table, Li Nian stopped Xiao Yunyu from drinking on the grounds that they had to travel the next day. Xiao Yunchen naturally followed suit and did not drink.
As the middleman, Shopkeeper Liu drank quite a bit.
The next day, they set out at noon.
The two best friends, Jinhe and Yu Niang were still riding in a carriage, while the two men were riding horses.
Jiangxi City is not far from here, but it still took a day and a night to get there by carriage.
Compared with Subei City, Jiangxi City obviously has more mountains and hills, but the temperature is similar to that of Subei. The cold wind even seems to be able to penetrate the bones through the clothes.
Xiao Yunchen had already written a letter and sent it over, so as soon as they arrived in the city, their classmates had already arranged accommodation for them.
On the way, Li Sisi walked along the mountain path and felt that there were many mountains in Jiangxi City, and it seemed that the mountains were connected to each other.
Nowadays, when you walk around the city and look up, the distant view ends at the mountains.
"Oh my god, if we go further south, we won't go straight into the big forest, right?" Please forgive her for her ignorance. It was the first time she saw so many mountains!
Xiao Yunyu, the most knowledgeable of the four, explained: "Further south, the mountains will be higher, and the roads will circle the mountains."
Li Sisi thought about it, but couldn't figure out what it would be like.
Li Nian also became curious. Would the top of a place like that always be shrouded in mist, like a fairyland?
And that place is full of roses, no, to be more precise, there are countless exotic flowers and plants!
Xiao Yunchen's classmate was the county magistrate here, so Xiao Yunchen went directly to the county government office to find someone.
The official at the door saw that the servants of the group looked simply dressed, but their clothes were all made of expensive fabrics, bright colors and fine workmanship.
Not to mention that he was traveling with more than a dozen guards. It goes without saying that the master of this group of people is of extraordinary status.
Surprised, he dared not neglect it and immediately nodded and bowed: "Please wait a moment, I will pass it on right away."
After a while, Wang Zheng, dressed in official robes, strode out of the government office.
Seeing Xiao Yunchen on horseback, he immediately greeted him warmly: "It's really Brother Yunchen! You must have had a hard time on the way. Come to my house and rest up soon."
He looked at the handsome man next to Xiao Yunchen and asked doubtfully, "Who is this?"
"This is my eldest brother." Xiao Yunchen introduced.
Wang Zheng immediately understood: "So it's the Crown Prince. I, Wang Zheng, greet the Crown Prince!"
Xiao Yunyu said casually, "No need to be so polite. We have quite a group of us. Can your house accommodate us?"
He just took a look at the houses in the city, which seemed a bit cramped.
Wang Zheng looked at their group. There were about twenty or thirty masters and servants in total.
He said with a bit of embarrassment: "My humble abode is indeed a bit shabby."
"In that case, please find us an inn with a nice environment." Xiao Yunyu asked bluntly.
Wang Zheng nodded quickly. "I'll arrange for someone to take care of it. You just stay here. If there's anything you don't like, please let me know."
Li Nian listened to the conversation outside and lifted the carriage curtain: "Let's go directly to the inn? Jinhe is asleep."
Wang Zheng saw a familiar face, whose appearance seemed to have not changed at all after not seeing it for several years.
He said in a daze: "Wu'er!"
Li Nian met his gaze and frowned in confusion.
acquaintance?
She didn't know him, so he must be an acquaintance of the original owner, right?
Xiao Yunchen asked in surprise: "Do you know each other?"
At this moment, Wang Zheng's mind was filled with the joy of reunion after a long separation, and he didn't think about why Yun Qiuwu, as a concubine of the Yun family, would come from afar with Xiao Yunchen and others.
Wang Zheng's face was filled with surprise. "More than just acquaintance! Wu'er and I met when we were young, and we were once in love."
Li Nian: Traveling hundreds of miles to meet the original owner's ex-lover? That's truly fate.
Li Nian tried hard to find the trace of this man in the original owner's memory, only to find that there were quite a few men who were "mutually in love" with the original owner before she got married.
Among them, there were also several students with good talents but ordinary family backgrounds, and they all studied in the Imperial College.
Li Nian:...Goodness, the original owner’s behavior made her deserve to marry the prince!
If I had her skills, I wouldn't be single in such a free and open place like today!
Li Nian racked her brains to recall the appearance of the man in front of her, but in Xiao Yunyu's eyes, it was as if his wife lifted the car curtain and looked into the eyes of her old lover, reminiscing about the past.
He strode to stand between the two of them and said, "My wife, our daughter is asleep. Let's go to the inn and rest first."
