Perfect Encounter

An Ruochen tightened her chest with cloth strips, took a few deep breaths, and confirmed that her breathing was still smooth, so she continued to put on the apron, jacket, and put on the newly bought plain dress. Then she picked up her pack.

The burden is deliberately wrapped in a flat shape, not too bulky. She tied the bundle behind her back, and then put on a wide cloak to cover it just right.

An Ruochen carefully looked in the mirror and felt that she looked pretty good. She is satisfied. Take a deep breath, turn and go out.

She didn't call a maid, didn't bring any entourage, she walked towards the side door of the mansion as if wandering alone. When approaching the side door, he stopped and looked at the flowers pretendingly. From the corner of his eyes, he noticed that the door was open, and the concierge was helping the lady who delivered the food to carry the basket.

Well, that's the opportunity.

An Ruochen plucked a branch of flowers and smelled it as she walked out nonchalantly, but when she was going out, the porter happened to put down the basket and turned his head and saw her. She smiled at the porter and walked out calmly and generously.

The concierge didn't wake up for a while, and didn't ask questions or block the way.

An Ruochen raised her heart in her throat, not daring to turn her head, and quietly quickened her pace. In my ears, I heard the lady delivering vegetables urging the concierge to invite Mr. Accountant, and the concierge replied "OK, ok". An Ruochen secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and walked a few more steps, only to hear the porter rush out and shout, "Miss, where are you going?"

Oops!

An Ruochen didn't listen, she didn't dare to run, and continued walking steadily. Just looking at the back is called a calm and self-possessed person. It's just that she knows that she wants to go faster, and faster.

She continued to listen with her ears upright, the concierge didn't call her again, but An Ruochen knew that the matter had just begun.

Fortunately, there was a corner ahead, and everything went as planned.

An Ruochen turned in, and suddenly started to run wildly, and then ran around a corner, and quickly hid in a dark alley.

Before she could catch her breath, she pressed herself against the wall and shrank in the dark. Then she heard shouts and hurried footsteps coming from the street.

"Quick, quick, you two look over there. It's so weird, it disappeared in the blink of an eye."

"You trash, seeing that the eldest lady didn't take anyone out by herself, I don't know how to stop her. The master knows that you are the one to watch!"

"I was busy at the time, so I didn't notice what was wrong for a while. I remembered it later, and I also called out a few times, and then hurriedly called someone." It was the voice of the concierge, and he was trying to argue, "Missy looks I'm in a good mood, looking at the flowers and wandering around, maybe I just go out for a walk, and I'll be back in a while..."

"Stop **** nonsense, find someone quickly. If the eldest miss disappears, we will all have to eat the whip."

Several voices yelled and ran away. An Ruochen closed her eyes, silently apologizing for them to be whipped.

An Ruochen waited for a while, guessing that they had gone far away, so she hid herself at the entrance of the alley and took a closer look. Make sure no one is there. She took off her cloak, put the bundle in her arms, and walked out of the alley.

Drive fast all the way, observe carefully, and quietly avoid the attention of passers-by. Not long after, An Ruochen found a suitable candidate. The one on the front left is carefully dressed and well-dressed. She has a similar figure and temperament to her, and looks leisurely and leisurely, as if she is going to go shopping in this street shop. She has a maid by her side, but it doesn't matter, everyone will only remember the most conspicuous one.

An Ruochen looked around, then smiled and walked towards the girl. At this time, the house must have been turned upside down, and her father must have sent many servants out to look for her. She has to hurry up.

An Ruochen walked up to the girl with a smile, and handed over the cloak in her hand that was embroidered with the auspicious tree of the auspicious bird and auspicious bird with gold thread and red thread: "Girl, my family is going to have a happy event. Only by spreading the blessings can there be blessings. I see that you have a good eye, a bright seal, and happy eyebrows. You must be a lucky person. This cloak is perfect for you, so why don't you give it to you?"

When the girl heard this, she was overjoyed, and then she looked at the cloak, the texture, color, pattern and embroidery were all top-grade, she couldn't hide her happy brows. The maid on the side watched, also showing surprise. Seeing this, An Ruochen took the initiative to put on the girl's clothes and tie them up: "Thank you for your success, girl, let's take this blessing with me."

The girl touched the cloak fondly and thanked her. An Ruochen smiled, waved goodbye, carried her baggage, walked through a side alleyway, and rushed towards the south gate.

Just as An Ruochen expected, at this time Anfu's servants and guards were already searching for her in the whole city.

The servants asked around in the streets and alleys, did they ever see a girl passing by? She was wearing a light purple cloak with conspicuous golden bird mangrove embroidered on it.

Not long after, a servant really found out. A merchant showed the way and saw where the girl was going. The servants were overjoyed, passed messages to each other, and ran to chase people in that direction. While chasing and inquiring, I heard passers-by say that they saw the girl get into a carriage. The servants cheered and hurriedly called the guards who came out on horseback to catch up quickly.

At this time, An Ruochen had already rushed to the south gate.

At a remote corner of the city wall was parked a farm carriage that An Ruochen had ordered in advance, and the carriage was loaded with bales of fodder. An Ruochen paid the money and got into the car. After hiding the general, he suddenly heard two familiar voices passing by the carriage, it was actually An Ping, the general manager of An Mansion, and his personal servant.

An Ruochen's heart was about to jump out of her throat, and her palms were sweating from nervousness. Isn't the security manager going out of the city to handle errands? Why did you come back so soon?

This Anping was the most loyal to her father, and he was the accomplice who wanted to marry her to that lewd, vicious, disgusting old man in Fu'an County.

An Ping's voice seemed to be right next to the carriage, An Ruochen held his breath and dared not let out his breath.

She had planned this escape for a long time, and it took a lot of trouble to arrange every detail. Now that she has reached the gate of the city, victory is in sight, and she must not fall short here.

But Anping seemed to be standing beside the carriage, chatting endlessly with his servants. The carriage did not move, and the old man who drove the carriage was not heard. An Ruochen's cold sweat broke out.

God bless, God bless.

An Ruochen clenched his teeth and dared not move. He was afraid that Anping would find out that there was someone hidden in the fodder, and he was also afraid that the old man driving the car would not be smart enough to ask her to leave or not. If the old man opened his mouth, she would definitely be in trouble.

The old man didn't say anything, and the carriage transporting fodder finally started to move, An Ruochen's heart jumped up and down following the bumps of the carriage.

The carriage gradually distanced itself from Anping and the others, An Ruochen breathed a sigh of relief. She saw from the gap in the haystack that Anping and his servants were still standing there talking, presumably they hadn't found her trace. But at this moment a servant ran over and said something to Anping. Anping suddenly turned pale with shock.

Xu was reporting her escape. An Ruochen thought. I don't know if the girl in the cloak delayed them for a while. But it doesn't matter if it's useless, her carriage is going out of the city gate soon, and they won't find her.

Just thinking like this, the carriage jolted violently, the wheels seemed to hit a rock, An Ruochen was almost thrown off. She wobbled and grabbed the carriage to stabilize her figure, but a hay pile in front of her rolled down.

An Ruochen's eyes suddenly opened up, and when he raised his eyes, he met Anping's eyes.

Both of them were shocked.

An Ruochen shouted: "Old man, run!"

At the same time, Anping was also calling: "Miss is over there!"

The old man driving the carriage whipped his horse and made the carriage run quickly. An Ruochen stared at An Ping and the servants who were running towards her, thinking to himself: "I can't catch up, I can't catch up, I definitely can't catch up."

The carriage ran farther and farther, and Anping and the others gradually became smaller. Before An Ruochen could breathe a sigh of relief, Anping ran towards a carriage beside the city gate.

The car turned a corner, and An Ruochen could no longer see Anping and the others. But her heart flustered badly. They must be coming after her, she can't sit still.

An Ruochen piled up the fodder on the car, and then asked the old man who was driving to stop at the turning forest road ahead. After she got off the car, he asked the old man to continue driving with all his strength.

The old man driving the car agreed, and after a while the car stopped, An Ruochen jumped down, and waved vigorously for the old man to leave. Then she hid in the woods and waited for a while, and sure enough, she saw Anping chasing up with his entourage and a servant in a carriage. They chased the old man's carriage all the way, and soon disappeared.

An Ruochen breathed a sigh of relief, turned around and ran towards the bottom of the woods.

She still can't rest assured that her footsteps are not fast enough, and the old man driving the car may not be tight-lipped. When Anping catches up with him, he may know that she got off the car here, and they will continue to chase. She had to run quickly, going down from the woods to another road down the mountain. If she was lucky, she might be able to get in another carriage and escape from this tiger's mouth.

An Ruochen has never been a pessimistic person.

When she was young, her father married the second aunt, third aunt, and even fourth aunt and fifth aunt. Her own mother was in tears and almost despaired. She felt that this was just to make people realize that her father had no heart and no feelings, but life should go on.

Later, her mother died, and the aunts bullied her secretly, and her father ignored her. Her old nurse was sad and sad every day, and worried about her. But she felt that there was still a bowl of rice for her at home, so she could live on.

How do you say that? Well, if you keep the green hills, you are not afraid of running out of firewood.

She grew up gradually, and she actively wanted to find a way out for herself, but a good marriage was not what she wanted. Good people look down on her family, and those who flatter her father look down on her who has fallen out of favor. Naturally, she didn't like them either. Finally, until now, she just turned eighteen the day before yesterday, if she is not married at this age, she should cause gossip.

But her father is not afraid of gossip, because he actually thought of using her to get a favor, marrying her to Mr. Qian Peiqian, who has passed his sixtieth year in Fu'an County, to fill in the house and exchange for business opportunities.

An Ruochen didn't know what **** was in her father's head.

Not to mention that Qian Pei is rich, powerful and well-connected, but his reputation is not as bad as a rat in the gutter, but at Qian Pei's age, he can be her father's father, and her father actually wants him to be his son-in-law.

When the news of the engagement came, the nannies and maidservants cried together, but An Ruochen didn't cry. She has no time to cry. She knew it was time for her to act. Ever since her mother passed away when she was ten years old, she had predicted that she might have today. So she seized every opportunity to learn about the terrain inside and outside the city, she saved every copper coin she could, and she learned the crafts that women can earn a living independently. She makes friends and scouts out ways.

Life is to go on, but it doesn't have to be in a mouse's nest.

An Ruochen felt that there is no unparalleled road in the sky. So although she never strayed too far from her family home, she fled decisively.

An Ruochen ran all the way down. This forest is quite big, and the mountain is quite steep. There is a sloping grassland in front of her. She can go down the mountain by running across the grassland. When she gets to the bottom of the mountain, she will definitely find a good opportunity...

Before he could finish his thoughts, An Ruochen tripped over a stone. She fell into the mud. But this was not the worst, the mountain was steep and sloping, and the fall couldn't stop, she rolled and fell all the way down the mountain like rolling and climbing.

Dizzy and dizzy.

An Ruochen screamed and rolled down, with two thoughts in her mind. One is why Shitou always has trouble with her? The other is fortunately wrapped in the chest. Big **** were a mistake, thanks to her early preparations, otherwise the consequences of this breast would be really unimaginable.

Before she could finish her thoughts, she stopped rolling.

There was a soft "bang" as her head hit the ground, and her forehead hurt, as if she had hit a rock again.

An Ruochen doesn't speak foul language, so she rubbed her forehead and raised her head while muttering: "Pigs, dogs, cows, sheep, chickens, ducks, and geese."

"Uh..." It turned out that it was not a stone, but a foot. Wearing stiff, shiny boots.

"..." Even boots can't be as hard as rocks.

An Ruochen looked up from the boots, she had thick thighs, a strong narrow waist, and a strong chest that couldn't be concealed by clothing materials. Further up, there is a face as resolute and cold as a stone.

That face was looking down at her at the moment, with no expression, no surprise, no doubt, or anger, as if a girl had rolled down out of nowhere and lay at his feet, to him it was as if nothing had happened.

Wait a minute, not on your stomach.

It's kneeling!

An Ruochen suddenly realized that her posture was indecent, she put her hands on the ground and was about to get up, but she noticed something out of the corner of her eye. She turned her head quickly, and she was stunned when she saw it!

On the other side of the road, there was a large group of soldiers sitting or standing densely. The number of people was beyond the range that An Ruochen could estimate at a glance. What was even more frightening was that the big soldiers were quiet at this moment, and they all looked at An Ruochen and the stone-faced man with amused expressions.

An Ruochen froze.

God, a large group of men just saw her roll down the mountain in a mess and kneel at the feet of a man!

An Ruochen's face was on fire.

It was so embarrassing that there seemed to be a thousand words roaring in his heart, but he couldn't choke on a single word. "Pigs, dogs, cows, sheep, chickens, ducks and geese" can't express half of her annoyance.

Is it okay to pretend that you have never fallen or kneeled?

An Ruochen looked at the big man's expression again, and then decided on his own: yes!

She quickly got up and saw her bag fall at the man's feet, she was about to bend down to pick it up and continue to run away, but she heard a loud voice from the **** behind her: "Miss!"

The hairs all over An Ruochen's body stood on end.

She didn't look back, her mind was racing fast.

How to do?

It is definitely not enough to run away now. Moreover, she couldn't let them go back and report to her father that she had absconded with her belongings, otherwise she would definitely have everything confiscated and locked in the room until she got married. She couldn't fall into such a passive situation waiting to die.

If I didn't escape this time, I can wait for the next time. Where there is life, there is hope. She had to leave a way out for herself.

An Ruochen's heart was pounding, and she heard the voice of Anping and the others calling her as they rushed down the hillside behind her. She turned her head slightly and saw many flags flying high among a large group of soldiers and generals on the other side of the road. The red banner with black background is very eye-catching. On the flag, there is a mighty "dragon" embroidered on it.

An Ruochen suddenly realized what the big man in front of him was wearing - general's official uniform. She grabbed the man's hand: "General Long, I can see you!"

As soon as the words fell, Anping and Pingping also happened to stand beside her.

An Ruochen didn't seem to notice them, and continued loudly: "I have heard the name of General Long, and my little girl has admired it for a long time. One person killed a hundred bandits on Hutoupo and rescued the villagers. Defeating the enemy army with thousands of people shocked the world, defending Ningcheng with boat formations on the Baiyun River, and being extremely resourceful. I have heard this story for no less than a hundred times, and I can only hope to see the true face of the general. God. You have eyes, let the general come to our Zhonglan City. The little girl came here to meet the general after going through many twists and turns. Now that she has fulfilled her wish and has no regrets, it is truly blessed by the Lord Buddha."

In one go, she talked nonsense, and she was so fluent, the enthusiasm in her eyes was so shameless. Both hands were still pinching the palm of the "Dragon General".

During these days, there was a lively news in Zhonglan City that the famous General Protecting the Country, Long Teng, would lead his troops to garrison Pingnan County. The city of Zhonglan was decorated with lanterns and festoons, and it was decorated to welcome this important person. So the one in front of him is him, right? General Long?

An Ruochen carefully looked at this man's appearance. In his twenties, he has thick eyebrows and big eyes, a straight nose, thin lips that look a little harsh, and his face is full of wind and frost, but he is still majestic and handsome.

An Ruochen's heart was pounding, not because he was so handsome, but because he was too young, and he really didn't fit the legendary image of the invincible and brave general. What if she called the wrong person?

Hearing that there are generals of different ranks in the army, and why the chief general is partial to the general, she is always a little confused when the storyteller says these things. She has little experience, and she doesn't know what rank the official uniform in front of her is.

In an instant, An Ruochen had several different countermeasures in his mind.

And the expression on the general's face finally changed slightly, he pursed his lips and raised one eyebrow.

It's a half-smile.

An Ruochen's heart beat faster, she couldn't see the meaning in this expression. Is it to tease her for her gaffe, or to laugh at her for admitting the wrong person?
