"Does Mr. Rong want to go to Jinling City with me?" Su Mingjue asked after retracting his thoughts.
Rong Zheng shook his head and said, "I'll give you a ride."
Su Mingjue pursed her lips and said, "Where is Mr. Rong's grandfather's home?"
Rong Zheng paused after hearing this and looked up at him, with a hint of inquiry in his eyes, but After a while, he returned to normal and said: "Qingshui Prefecture."
Qingshui Prefecture sounded familiar to Su Mingjue. It seemed that it was not far from Jinling City, but he had never been there.
Su Mingjue smiled and said: "The name sounds like a good place with beautiful mountains and clear waters."
Rong Zheng looked away, his eyelids drooping slightly, "Really?"
Su Mingjue nodded, "There are many places with beautiful mountains and clear waters in the south, but the two names of 'clear water' There are very few names for it. If it weren't for the beautiful and pleasant scenery, it wouldn't have such a good name."
Rong Zheng said with a smile, "Mr. Su, he has read too many books, and his opinions have changed."
Su Mingjue. He waved his hand and said, "What does this have to do with reading? You can guess a thing or two just by hearing its name."
Rong Zheng pursed his lips and was about to say something after being silent for a while when a violent crash came from outside the boat.
Su Mingjue opened the gauze curtain and looked out, only to see a awning boat hit his boat. He immediately ran over and was about to ask the other party if he needed any help.
A person on the boat bowed his hands, looked behind him, and reported: "Young Master has made arrangements, please get on the boat."
Su Mingjue saw the man's face, which looked slightly familiar. After a while, he realized that this was not Rong Zheng's personal little one. Are you Ting Fang?
Before he could ask, Rong Zheng walked out of the cabin dressed in white and nodded slightly to Ting Fang.
After a moment, he turned back to Su Mingjue and said, "The next stop is at the Sifang Inn. Remember to book room No. 1 in Tianzi."
After saying that, without waiting for Su Mingjue's reaction, he walked straight to the awning boat, then bent down and entered. Inside the ship.
By the time Su Mingjue came to his senses, the figure of the other party was already getting further and further away from her.
The person who stopped just now disappeared in an instant, as if he had never been there just now.
Su Mingjue looked at Rong Zheng's figure coming and going freely, and secretly thought about what made Rong Zheng so cautious and had to tell him secretly.
The boat was still moving forward. Su Mingjue thought about it for a long time and still couldn't figure it out, so she gave up, rolled up her sleeves and went back to the couch to take a nap.
After a brief lunch on the boat, we finally arrived at Qingki, the first docking point on the waterway, in the evening.
Qingji is relatively close to the capital, and is the first county close to the capital. However, because it is far away from the capital, the folk customs here are much more open than those in the capital.
Su Mingjue was busy going to Beijing last time and didn't stop in Qingji at all. This time when he got off the boat, he felt excited. He rubbed his hands together and looked at whether he could take a stroll here later if he had time. Find something delicious that you haven’t tried before.
The boatman anchored and docked, and a master and two servants stepped out of the boat. Su Mingjue was holding a scholar's fan, looking like a humble gentleman, and wanted to walk to the market on the left.
Before walking a few steps, Mu Li stopped him and said in a deep voice, "Young master, it's a long journey, we'd better find a shop to rest for a while before making other plans."
Su Mingjue pursed her lips, and then put her hands As soon as he put away the fan in his pocket, "In that case, let's find a store!"
Su Xiaoliu, carrying close-fitting soft clothes and clothes, looked around and said, "Which store does the young master want to go to?"
Qingji is the gateway to the capital. There were many restaurants and inns on the road, and Su Mingjue had quite a few requirements for eating out. Su Xiaoliu didn't dare to make the decision without permission, so he asked.
Su Mingjue looked around and was about to say try the local dishes of Qingji. Suddenly he saw the name of Sifang Inn. He remembered what Rong Zheng said. He raised his finger and pointed at the inn plaque and said: "Then go to that one! "
Hearing this, Su Xiaoliu nodded, and the three of them rushed there.
After entering the store, the waiter said with enthusiasm: "You three guests, do you think we should stay in the hotel?"
Su Xiaoliu responded skillfully: "Dajian, give us a table of good food and wine, and prepare some hot water for us. Let’s take a bath in a room.”
“Okay! This way, sir,” the waiter said with a smile on his face as he led the three of them to their seats in the lobby.
As if thinking of something, Su Mingjue looked at the waiter and asked: "What is the best room of yours?"
The waiter picked up the teapot and poured water for the three people sitting on the seat, and responded: "There are many good rooms in this inn. If you want to have a more comfortable bath, room No. 1 in Tianzi is naturally the best."
Su Mingjue rubbed her teacup and nodded, "That's the room you want! Hot water will be sent to this room later."
"Hey. "Okay, I'll go prepare it for the guests now. The nobles will wait a moment again."
After saying that, the waiter left.
Su Mingjue picked up the tea cup and took a few sips of tea. He looked around with round eyes and found nothing unusual.
He thought Rong Zheng had specially explained that there was some secret code for connection.
Who knew that nothing unusual happened during this meal.
Because she had to leave in a hurry, after eating, Su Mingjue walked to Room No. 1 in Tianzi to take a bath.
Before entering the room, Su Mingjue still had some hope, hoping to find some clues from the room. Unexpectedly, he walked around and found nothing wrong.
Seeing that she couldn't find anything, Su Mingjue took off her clothes and took a shower.
After washing and dressing, he felt groggy and fell asleep soon.
When he woke up again, he found that the top of his head was green and his body was shaking, as if he was on a carriage.
After a moment of confusion, he noticed Rong Zheng sitting on the other side wearing a white plain robe, reading a blue-covered book.
Su Mingjue rubbed her eyes with her hands to make sure that she was not dreaming, and then asked: "Where am I?"
Rong Zheng turned over a page of the book and said calmly: "On the road to Qinghe County."
Su Mingjue heard this. Stunned, "Where is Qinghe County?"
"The only way to go from the capital to the south."
Su Mingjue opened the car curtain and looked outside, seeing green mountains surrounding him, and later realized that he seemed to be taking a land route.
He immediately exclaimed: "Why don't we take the water route instead of the land route?"
Rong Zheng said: "The water route is the only one that cannot be retreated, and the land route is safer."
"An...safe" Su Mingjue subconsciously looked back at Rong Zheng, "Who is in danger, you or me?"
Rong Zheng was silent for a moment and did not answer. He looked straight at Su Mingjue and said with a smile, "Why do you think it's a problem with the people, not the road?"
Su Mingjue curled the corner of his mouth. If there is a problem, just let him take the land route from the beginning.
If you go to a lot of trouble to travel by water and then switch to land, wouldn’t that mean you have nothing to do?
