  A team of officers and soldiers came and surrounded the carriage.

   "Stop!"

   Facing the menacing officers and soldiers, the coachman clenched the reins tightly, at a loss.

  The leading officers and soldiers glanced at the quiet carriage, and said coldly: "The people inside come out!"

  A moment later, the curtains of the car were lifted, revealing Xiao Lian's face: "Our girl is in the car, what happened?"

  The leading officer and soldier glanced at the pretty little maid, and then took a closer look at the carriage.

  Ordinary green curtained carriage, no sign of any house can be seen.

  The leading officers and soldiers judged that the person sitting in the carriage was not some noble person, and cupped their hands perfunctorily: "We are under the command of the commander of the Beijing camp, Wu Dadu, and we are ordered to arrest the fugitive, and please get off the carriage to cooperate with the inspection."

  The curtains of the car were lowered, and the curtains of the door were raised after a while. The maid who had spoken before stepped on the horse stool and got out of the car, and turned around to help the girl in the car to get off.

The leader of the officers and soldiers stared at the girl who got off the carriage, seeing that she was plain all over, with only a gold hairpin stuck in her black hair, she felt relieved, sitting on the horseback and condescendingly asked: "Have you ever seen a girl?" young man?"

  Xin You raised his head slightly, and met the eyes of the officers and soldiers above: "Young men are everywhere, I wonder what kind of question the poor man is asking?"

   This calm answer made the leading officer and soldier frown.

  He originally thought that there was an ordinary Xiaojiabiyu in the carriage, and it was normal to be trembling when faced with a tall and burly officer holding a sword.

  In this case, maybe you really have the guts to hide the prisoner.

   "A young man in ragged clothes, of medium build, thin, with handsome features..."

  Xin You waited for the leading officers and soldiers to finish speaking, and said apologetically, "Sorry, we haven't seen such a person along the way. Have you, Uncle Sun?"

   Uncle Sun is the coachman. When asked suddenly, he quickly agreed: "I haven't seen it before."

  The leading officers and soldiers looked at Xin You and the coachman, and finally looked at the carriage parked quietly on the side of the road. He raised his chin at his subordinates: "Go and have a look in the car."

  Xiao Lian's complexion changed drastically: "No way!"

  The leading officers and soldiers looked at the little maid who was facing the enemy, and sneered: "What? Could there be something shady in the car? Or did you say - you harbored fugitives!"

Xiaolian knew that her gaffe had aroused the other party's suspicion, and she was annoyed and blamed herself. Fortunately, she had experienced a lot of things with Xinyou for so long, and she quickly realized: "Master, don't get me wrong. There are a lot of us in the car." Things that girls use, poor men are all men, it’s really inconvenient—”

   "Inconvenient?" The leading officer held the scabbard in his hand, with dark clouds covering his face.

   "Xiao Lian, go and open the door curtain." Xin You said lightly.

   "Yes." Xiao Lian replied, and went forward to open the door curtain.

  The carriage can be seen to the bottom at a glance. There are several boxes and cages fixed along the wall of the car, and there is a table. In addition to this, there is a big burden, and there are several cloth bags and thin blankets hanging on the wall of the car.

  The leading officers and soldiers glanced at it, but there was no place to hide someone, but the man who was at large was really important, and it was hard to be reconciled to losing clues like this.

   "Go and check under the car."

   Soon an officer and soldier walked in to check.

  Xiao Lian saw it and was secretly afraid.

  If the monkey hadn't discovered the person hiding under the car, they would have jumped into the Yellow River and they wouldn't have been able to clean up.

   "Captain, not found."

"excuse me."

  The leading officer and soldier glanced at the carriage again, and paused as he grabbed the reins and was about to leave, his eyes fell directly on the bag: "What's in the bag?"

   Judging by the size of the baggage, it is naturally impossible to hide a man, but it is still a little strange to see.

  Xiao Lian gritted her teeth tightly, her hands shaking from nervousness.

  Xin You replied calmly: "It's just the clothes and other things I changed."

Before the leading officer could speak, she walked over, took out a bank note from her purse, and stuffed it into the other party's hand: "My daughter's clothes are inconvenient for outsiders to see, and I hope the messenger will be considerate. I really don't want to delay the messenger's time." Excuse me, buy a glass of water and wine when the poor man is free."

  The leading officer and soldier looked down and looked at Xin You with a different expression: "The girl is really generous."

  A little girl, it turned out to be fifty taels of silver bills when she made a move.

  Xin You winked at Xiaolian.

   Having been together for so long, the master and servant had a tacit understanding, Xiao Lian raised her voice, "What's the matter, our girl even donated fifty thousand taels of silver to the disaster victims in Dingbei!"

  The leading officers and soldiers looked shocked, and looked at Xin You's eyes again: "Are you Miss Kou?"

  Nowadays in the capital, there are many people who have never seen Miss Kou, but not many people who have never heard of Miss Kou.

  Xin You nodded in agreement.

   "Excuse me." The leader of the officers and soldiers cupped their hands, and the little evil thoughts that had arisen from seeing the fifty-two silver bills dissipated, and quickly led their men away on horseback.

  Miss Kou has a reputation in the Tian family, so it's not worth offending her.

  Xin You watched the group of people walk away with coldness in his eyes.

  The subordinates of the Jingying commander don’t seem to have a good style of work. When the leader saw the bank note just now, he obviously had the idea of ​​seizing money, which is why she gave Xiaolian a wink to reveal her identity.

  Backing in the car, Xiao Lian looked remorseful: "It's because the servant girl is not good, she is too restless, and that made the officers and soldiers suspicious."

   "Don't think too much, it's only natural for you to be nervous."

  Kou Qingqing's skeleton was hidden in the baggage. Not to mention that Xiao Lian was nervous, she didn't dare to take the slightest risk of being opened by the officers and soldiers, so she would rather show her money and send those people away.

   "Who the **** is that young man? He was implicated for no reason!" Xiao Lian became very angry whenever she thought about the consequences of being unwrapped.

   "Maybe... poor man."

  If Xin You hadn't dealt with those officers and soldiers, Xin You wouldn't think so, but now that she has a bad impression of those officers and soldiers, it is inevitable to have such speculations.

   But these were an episode after all, and then the carriage turned around and went to a farm.

  This farm is also owned by Kou Qingqing, one of the properties that Xinyou wanted to return earlier, it was Xiaolian's proposal to bury Kou Qingqing here.

  The Shaoqing Mansion is not a home, and the former home cannot be returned, and it is half of the family buried here.

  There is a small hill within the range of the farm. Xin You arranged for people to dig a hole in advance and prepare the coffin. Afterwards, she and Xiao Lian personally completed the burial of Kou Qingqing.

  After more than an hour, a new grave appeared, and Xiao Lian knelt in front of the grave and burned a lot of paper money.

   Not long after the Qingming Festival, the paper money that burned into ashes was swept away by the spring wind, and I don’t know how many fly ash that entrusted the sorrow of the world met.

  It was getting dark unconsciously, Xin You leaned over and patted Xiaolian on the shoulder: "Go back, I can come and see Miss Kou anytime in the future."

  Xiao Lian nodded, Kou Qingqing's buried peace made her feel a lot easier.

   And Xin You also unloaded a burden. Before leaving, she looked back at the lonely grave, and said softly in her heart: Kou Qingqing, bless me to go smoothly, and my wishes come true, and I will be with you when I come back.
