: Face-off

After getting out of the city gate, the horses were put to use. They galloped all the way, and the surrounding scenery quickly moved backwards.

Shi Jin was sitting on his side, but he couldn't sit still. His whole body was like a helpless duckweed, drifting along with the second master, gathering and dispersing invisible.

"Second, Second Master..." Her face was very pale, and a look of fear suddenly appeared in her eyes, as if she was about to be knocked off her horse every moment.

However, the second master seemed to be amused, and allowed Shi Jin to cling to him. He tightened the bridle with both hands, and his chest felt like thunder, and his voice contained a smile, "Hold on tight, I don't care if it falls."

The palms wrapped around his waist suddenly left, and Shi Jin felt his whole body tremble with the running of the horse. He couldn't help but lean back, and the helpless hands were also pulled away from the second master's left arm.

Hug Erye tightly around his waist.

The second master was already tall and tall, but this time Shi Jin leaned in his arms and hugged him tightly, there was nothing more between the two of them than to rely on each other.

Looking at Shi Jin again, he saw that her face was stained with red clouds. The second master's muffled smile became more and more obvious, and his eyebrows gradually became warmer. He just lowered his head and said to the tip of her ear, "It doesn't look obvious, I'm afraid I'm alone."

It’s hard to grasp.”

The lingering and ambiguous voice made the tips of Shi Jin's ears suddenly change color.

The second master looked at the bright red auricles, his Adam's apple moved slightly, but he didn't move again.

As the horse ran wildly, Shi Jin felt numbness at the tip of her buttocks. Just when she was alone and unable to support herself, the black-maned horse finally slowed down its hooves until it felt like a leisurely stroll.

Only then did Shi Jin poke his head out of Erye's arms and look at the surrounding scenery.

This is a mountain col, with green grass and inexplicable wild flowers; the sound of water splashes against the rocks, and the turbulent path swings far away. Looking from a distance, you can see mountains and rivers surrounding it, and layers of forests dyed in it.

Not far from the green grassland, there are several carriages and fine horses grazing leisurely, relaxed and relaxed.

The second master was dismounting from his horse and supporting Shi Jin down, when he heard someone running from a distance.

Second Master Shi Jin held her waist and got off the horse. As soon as he turned around, he heard a voice called "Brother Qi" with some joy. The voice was like honey, moist and sweet.

She glanced around and saw Miss Jiang Jin, who was in charge of the envoys in front of the palace, wearing a narrow-sleeved silver-white fur-edged robe and jumping here twice, raising her right hand as if to say hello to the second master.

The last time Shi Jin saw her, he thought she was well-mannered, but she didn't expect she was an out-of-the-box girl.

Xu was usually too restrained, but today it was rare for her to come out, and her girlish and naive side came out.

This coquettishness was only shown to Qi Erye. When she saw Shi Jin, her cheerfulness dropped a bit to the naked eye, but she still had a smile on her face and looked up at Qi Mojing with a pair of moist eyes.

, "Brother Qi, do you take your maid with you when you go out?"

Shi Jin bowed to Miss Jiang according to the rules and then stood aside. Except for riding with his master just now, he still abided by his duty.

Qi Mojing did not reply to her, but looked into the distance, and saw General Ling and Jiang Zhizheng walking towards them, talking happily.

Not only them, but Qi Tianyi, Qi Shu, and her maternal uncle's daughter Yao Zixian also walked this way.

Hearing Jiang Jin asking about his second uncle, Qi Shu covered her mouth with a handkerchief and smiled. She couldn't help but tease her, "Jin'er is the elder brother. He has to call me second uncle. Let me ask you, we

What should I call you?"

Jiang Jin's cheeks suddenly turned red, and he only glared at Qi Shu, "It's you who's the one who's trying to make you narrow!"

Yao Zixian, who had always been quiet and quiet, licked her broken hair that was disturbed by the breeze and said, "Shu'er is naughty again."

Several girls were playing and joking, instantly covering up the awkwardness just now.

Jiang Zhi patted Qi Mojing on the shoulder, "Second Master, as always, doesn't understand the style."

He admired Qi Mojing very much, but if he was asked to be his brother-in-law, he would not even think about it.

Ling Yao glanced at Shi Jin indifferently, "You little maid, shouldn't you be climbing the mountain with you?"

In fact, her brocade skirt and blouse were ragged, and she only wore embroidered flip-up shoes, which was not suitable for climbing high.

Qi Tianyi didn't agree very much, "We are just going for an outing today, what does it matter if we can reach the top? Let's go with them. When we are tired, we find a place to rest."

In his opinion, his sister was not used to mountain climbing. Just a few young ladies might have to rest halfway up the mountain.

Everyone agreed, and they all walked up the stairs leisurely.

Behind him were a group of servants and maids, each holding something his master used to use and following behind.

At this time, the continuous red maples on Zhongyin Mountain have spread, dyeing layer by layer, gradually changing, and the color gradually progresses from yellow at the foot of the mountain to red. When the wind blows, you can see the red waves rolling, and they are extremely bright. Beautiful.

There is a lot of fog in the mountains, and the sun is half-rising at this time. Although it has dispersed into confusion, the steps at the bottom are stained with moisture. When you step on the steps, the fallen leaves make a slight rustle, and even the uppers of the shoes are stained with a little bit of moisture. .

Shi Jin focused on walking, using a pair of soft-soled embroidered shoes to avoid the moss-covered areas, but his steps were steady.

Second Master Qi glanced sideways and saw her dancing happily behind the crowd with her skirt held up. Her head was made of dogwood fruit and red bean earrings, which were so bright and red that it made people's hearts flutter. He was distracted for a moment and didn't hear what Jiang Zhi said.

He couldn't help but open his hand and wave it in front of the second master, "Return to your soul."

The second master looked at him indifferently and said, "The scenery is so pleasant that I am naturally intoxicated."

Jiang Zhi didn't like his formal manner, so he stroked his arm and took a step forward, walking side by side with Ling Yao.

Because of the silence in the mountains, the girls finally wore thicker clothes. After climbing a section of the mountain road, some sweat filled their cheeks. They wiped the sweat with a handkerchief and stopped walking.

"Brother Qi, please take a rest." Jiang Jin's nose was filled with sweat, his cheeks were red, and his chest was rising and falling with his breathing.

Ling Yao looked at the group of pretty ladies and didn't say much. He just smiled and said, "How about the ladies rest here while we climb higher."

"That's okay!" Jiang Jin climbed up today because of Qi Mojing. When he heard what Ling Yao said, he immediately supported his maid's hand and stood up straight, refusing to say anything, showing his timidity.

Qi Shu naturally had other thoughts.

Since the second prince's true identity was revealed, although she had lost interest, she still had to make plans for her marriage. This trip was just to see what Ling Yao's plans were as a person.

But now it looks like a solid wooden pile, not very interesting.

She was born slender, but now she was really tired, so she grabbed Yao Zixian's sleeves and said with a smile, "Sister Zixian and I will rest here together, you can go."

This means wanting to rest on the spot.

Qi Tianyi was worried about his sister and did not bother to climb the mountain, so he decided to stay and look after the two of them. He glanced around and saw sweat on Shi Jin's forehead, and his shoes were stained with dust. He asked her as if nothing had happened, "Can Shi Jin?" Want to take a break?”

As soon as he said these words, he felt like a light on his back, and his second uncle's scrutinizing eyes swept over him.

Qi Mojing glanced at Shi Jin briefly, "Do you want to continue?"

Shi Jin thanked the second young master for his kindness, lowered his eyebrows and said, "Shi Jin used to go into the mountains to collect herbs, but now it doesn't matter."

The plan was settled, except for the three people who stayed behind, the others continued to go up.

Jiang Jin glanced at Shi Jin with unclear meaning, walked a few steps quickly, and walked side by side with the second master.

Looking from Shi Jin's place, the two people looked exactly right in every aspect from their figures to their backs.
