"Qingfeng, don't waste time, we still have things to do."
The woman turned around and looked at Tang Qingfeng's unruly appearance, and sighed helplessly.
Tang Qingfeng snorted when he heard this, took out a sign from his pocket and threw it at the centurion: "You don't recognize this sign, do you?"
The centurion looked down at the token thrown into his arms and fell silent.
He really doesn't know him!
After calming down, he looked at the horses the two men were riding, and then at their clothes. His mind suddenly became clearer: "I don't recognize this token, but someone here does."
He turned around and ordered his men: "Keep an eye on them, I'm going to find the lieutenant general!"
He hurriedly turned to a small path on the side, where there was a small tent belonging to the right lieutenant general, who was resting inside.
After hearing the centurion's report, the right lieutenant general took the token and looked at it, then sat up instantly: "From the Taifu family? Why are you here?"
This was not meant to be a question. After he said it, he quickly packed up his things and strode out of the tent.
As he approached, he immediately spotted the dashing Tang Qingfeng riding on horseback. He quickly stepped forward and bowed, "So you're from the Taifu family! I didn't know you were from the Taifu family?"
He looked at Tang Qingfeng, as if listening attentively.
Tang Qingfeng coughed dryly: "I am Tang Qingfeng!"
Tang Qingfeng?
Isn't the surname of the Taifu family Song? Tang...
The right lieutenant general suddenly realized that the son-in-law of the Taifu family seemed to be called Tang Qingfeng!
He currently serves as Shangshu Zuocheng in the Shangshu Ling, and is a person who can meet the emperor directly.
After figuring out who this person was, his expression remained unchanged: "It turns out to be Lord Tang! I've never had the chance to meet you before, so please forgive me for being so rude. I didn't expect you to come here!"
He turned around and cursed at the guards: "You blind bastards, how dare anyone stop us! Why don't you let Master Tang pass?"
Tang Qingfeng twitched his lips and said, "There was no checkpoint here before. What are you doing now?"
The Right Lieutenant General chuckled, "To be honest, there were no checkpoints originally, but the barbarians have been quite active lately, so we had no choice but to impose martial law and investigate any suspicious individuals. If there is anything wrong, I hope you will bear with me."
Tang Qingfeng didn't know anything about the war, but since the other party had given a reasonable explanation, it seemed a bit unreasonable for him to continue to hold on to it.
"Uncle, let's go."
Tang Qingfeng glanced at the right lieutenant general and turned his horse around.
The woman pulled Ji Changying onto the horse without saying a word.
The right lieutenant general glanced at Ji Changying and didn't care, letting the three of them leave.
The people who stayed behind had sad faces and were queuing up to wait for passage.
However, with the explanation just given by the Right Lieutenant General, the resentment in their hearts was much less.
Watching them walk away, the right lieutenant general immediately took the horse tied to the side and galloped towards Tieling Guard.
He had to quickly tell the captain the news that Tang Qingfeng was coming here.
——
Ji Changying was sitting on the horse with her body stiff in the woman's arms. She couldn't control her head and secretly turned back to take a look at the woman's appearance. After seeing it clearly, she turned her head away again.
This impact!
The person behind her looked somewhat similar to her mother. If she didn't know, she would have thought she was her mother's sister, which made her feel strange.
"What's wrong? Is there something on my face?"
The voice behind him was not so clear and pleasant, but he spoke slowly and calmly.
"No." Ji Changying shook her head and didn't ask any more questions.
Tang Qingfeng caught up and said, "I'm convinced! You're still meddling in other people's business as usual, but at least you let me rest for a while. I won't bother with you this time!"
"Where are you going, little girl? If it's not on your way, we'll put you in front. We won't take you back if we have something else to do."
Tang Qingfeng had seen this girl crying and being timid before, so he was a little worried that this girl would rely on them and waste their time, so he took the opportunity to ask clearly before his uncle showed any more love.
Ji Changying said with gratitude: "Thank you for giving me a ride. Just put me down and I can walk on my own."
Tang Qingfeng looked at her in surprise. He didn't expect that after what had just happened, she would have the courage to walk alone.
"Since you said so..."
Before Tang Qingfeng could finish his words, the woman interrupted him: "Where is your home?"
Ji Changying was silent for a moment: "Xiaotian Village, Gan County, Liangzhou."
Tang Qingfeng laughed dumbly: "We are going to Liangzhou, so we should be able to travel together for a while. We will drop you off when we get to Liangzhou."
This made Ji Changying relax a little: "No need, sir, I can just get off at the fork in the road ahead, and I can go straight home from there."
The woman's voice was like a sigh: "Okay, then I'll put you down in front."
Tang Qingfeng's brows relaxed, and he said with some regret: "In that case, let's go to the front!"
In less than a quarter of an hour, they arrived at a fork in the road. Seeing Ji Changying at the intersection, he asked to dismount.
"That's it. If you keep going along this road, you'll reach Liangzhou. If you hurry, you should be there before dark."
Standing on the ground, Ji Changying pointed the way to them and reminded them to hurry up.
Tang Qingfeng looked at her and asked, "Little girl, what's your name?"
"Ji Changying!"
She smiled, then waved her hand and turned around decisively: "I'm leaving!"
"Hmm? Why does this name sound familiar? Strange! I've never seen her before..."
Tang Qingfeng always felt that this name sounded familiar, but he couldn't remember it for a moment.
Jiang Qianruo watched Ji Changying disappear before turning his horse around and saying, "Let's go!"
——
Only when Yi Jian saw the two of them running towards Liangzhou did Ji Changying completely relax.
"Could it be that my mother has a biological sister? Or is it just a coincidence that they look alike? It can't be the one in the palace, right? The age doesn't match! Besides, there's no way that person would run here!"
Ji Changying muttered as she walked, then she shook her head: "Whatever, never mind!"
She stepped lightly and flew towards the branches on both sides, intending to use her lightness skills to get back home as quickly as possible.
No matter how fast he ran, he was still caught red-handed by Mrs. Hu when he was returning home.
She pinched her waist and poked Ji Changying's forehead: "Why didn't you tell me when you left? Do you know that I ran all over the village looking for you? If your master hadn't told me that you left, I would still be running around the village calling you like crazy!"
Ji Changying pulled Hu's arm and smiled flatteringly: "I was wrong! Wasn't it a little late because of the delay? It's my fault for making you worry. Go ahead and hit me!"
She pulled Hu's hand and hit her chest, which made Hu laugh: "You deserve it! You hit me too lightly!"
"Hey, guess what I went out for?"
