Xu Mingyi faintly noticed the difference of the little servant girl. He took the letter and asked, "who sent it?"
"The maid didn't know. A little boy with sugar gourd in his hand sent it to the porter. He only said that a strange young man asked him to send it. He didn't know the man, and pointed out that it was for the girl."
That's the meaning of not wanting to reveal your identity
In doubt, Xu Mingyi took out the letter paper and unfolded it.
The handwriting on it really looks like it was written by a man.
And the contents of the letter
Xu Mingyi's face changed.
"What's the matter? Does this letter explain her identity?" Princess Yufeng couldn't help but ask when she looked obviously wrong and didn't want to inquire too much.
"It's Zhanyun bamboo," Xu Mingyi said in a calm voice.
"Who?"
Princess Yufeng twisted her eyebrows and remembered which one it was for a while. She was surprised and said, "you said that peacock who always secretly opened the screen... Didn't he throw himself into the river long ago?"
She saw early in the morning that this man had something.
She doesn't know the others, but this person is really good at attracting people's hearts, and they are all ordinary girls who often fall in when they are not careful.
At that time, she also lamented that it would be a pity for such a man not to go to gouyu court. Otherwise, a head card would not run away.
She was also worried that Xu Zhaozhao had been cheated, but Xu Zhaozhao skillfully proved that she was worried too much with her own ignorance.
"Yes, a man who threw himself into a river suddenly sent me a letter and told me that he was still alive -" Xu Mingyi's eyes had quickly recovered, looked down at the letter paper in his hand and said: "I'll meet at dusk outside the city two days later..."
The letter also said that it was not appropriate for him to tell others that he was still alive, so let her keep a secret for him, preferably alone.
There is something else in the envelope besides this letter paper——
A peach wood hairpin for men's hair.
The hairpin head is carved as a pattern of auspicious clouds, and the hairpin body has been polished.
This is really what Zhan Yunzhu does.
I remember once when I was a child, he went to the Hanming temple with her to cook tea and enjoy the snow with my second uncle. During the snow fight, she and a Kui were accidentally entangled in a strand of hair by a dead branch of a peach tree. I vaguely remember that he helped solve it patiently.
Then he broke the peach branch and took it away. When he went back, he made two hairpins and gave one of them to her.
She felt too old-fashioned and like a Taoist, so she didn't want it.
But she always remembered it.
No wonder she has a good memory, just because in the next years, he often used this wooden hairpin, and she couldn't forget it if she wanted to.
But when Zhan Yunzhu threw himself into the river that day, did he wear it?
Or did he remember to take it with him? Where others can't see, don't forget to play all the time?
It is really rare that the river is fast flowing, others are not dead, and hairpins are still there.
"Are you going? Is it because someone is trying to make a mystery?" Princess Yufeng frowned and said, "you'd better not go. Anyway, you have nothing to do with him, whether he is dead or alive."
Xu Mingyi put the letter away and said, "only when you go can you know whether it's a man or a ghost."
If it were someone else, she would not really join in the fun.
But since she is called Zhan Yunzhu, she will go.
If someone really wants to deceive her, I have to say that the method is really right.
The other party did not overestimate her interest and curiosity.
It's OK to deceive her in the past, but don't be unable to play then, and then cry and beg her to go.
……
Two days later.
When Jinwu was sinking in the west, one man and one horse rushed out of the city before the gate was closed.
The man on the horse was dressed in moonlight, and his head was covered with a gauze fence.
The horseshoe stepped on the twilight, ten miles out of the city, and was slowly stopped by the man on the horse under a mountain forest.
The girl on the horse turned over and dismounted. Instead of rushing into the forest, she looked around.
At this time, a short and thin boy came not far away. He asked in a cautious low voice, "dare you ask... But Miss Xu?"
Under the power fence, the girl nodded lightly, took out the peach hairpin from her sleeve and handed it to her.
The young man took it, breathed a sigh of relief and whispered, "Miss Xu, come with me. My childe is waiting for the girl inside."
Then he made a "please" gesture and led people to the forest.
Deep in the forest, you can see a wooden house in front.
The wooden house looks very old. I think it's mostly for hunters and woodcutters to rest.
"My son is in there."
Seeing the girl standing outside the wooden house, he seemed to hesitate. The boy quickly opened the door.
At this time, it was almost dark, and there was only a faint gray blue. Through this dark line of sight, the man wearing the power fence looked into the house.
This kind of place has no furnishings, but a broken table and bench, and a window.
In front of the window, a man in a long shirt stood with his back to the door.
From the body shape and half holding ink hair, it can be vaguely recognized that it should be a young man.
At this time, the young man slowly turned around.
However, in the dark, only the general outline can be seen faintly, and its facial features and faces are immersed in the dark, which makes people unable to look carefully.
Seeing this, the girl outside the door immediately raised her feet and walked in.
When she came to the man, she suddenly heard the sound of the wooden house door being quickly closed and locked behind her.
She was surprised and quickly turned back. At this time, the man in front suddenly raised his hand, took a cloth towel and suddenly covered her mouth and nose through a veil.
The man was so strong that she had little strength to resist.
But in a moment, she stopped struggling.
The man put the man on the ground, squatted down, raised his hand and took off the power fence.
"It is said that Miss Xu of the town government is the first beauty in Beijing. Now I'm going to open my eyes..." the young man said to himself with a smile.
However, the next moment, his smile stagnated on his face.
... why a man?!
Although the light is dim around, but this face is male or female, he won't admit his mistake. After all, the other party didn't even shave his beard, which stabbed his hand!
"Fuck!"
Knowing that the plan was empty, the young man was so angry that he had to stand up. At this time, the man pretending to be a girl suddenly opened his eyes and jumped up while taking out the dagger hidden behind his waist.
The young man was startled and narrowly avoided the blow.
Aren't you drugged? How can you wake up?!
Damn it!
The man scolded and somewhat flustered to avoid the man's attack.
When the man was covered by the cloth towel, he held his breath and didn't inhale. All his actions were just a play.
He was very fast. Rao was the man who had some tripod Kung Fu, but he was soon controlled.
But at this time, a new situation happened.
