The food for disaster relief was loaded with fifteen large carts, and they were parked outside the city and waited for Lord Qin Cha Xie to escort them personally.

Before leaving, Xie Jin naturally went to Tanghua Hutong and kowtowed to Mrs. Xie three times, the road ahead is dangerous, this time it is really hard to say whether it is life or death.

Old lady Xie didn't say a word with a straight face, thinking about whether it was worth exchanging her son's life for the glory and wealth of the Xie family.

Xie Jin smiled slightly and said, "Father, don't send it, right?" ”

Old Lady Xie nodded lightly.

Xie Jin then saluted again, and after the salute was over, he turned around and walked out.

Xie Zhen didn't know what the father and son were thinking, but she didn't think that there was anything wrong with the old lady Xie not sending Xie Jin out of the city, after all, the old man was old, it was better not to work too hard, and besides, the parting of relatives was not a happy thing, in case the old man was too sad, what happened...... Ahem...... It's bad after all. But Xie Zhen felt that it was a little too lonely to let Xie Jin go out of the city alone, so she told Xilai to prepare the carriage, and she wanted to go out of the city to see off this loyal and righteous uncle.

After Xie Jin stepped on the horse, he turned his head sideways and saw a small head poked out from the curtain of the carriage on the side.

"Uncle, Zhen'er is sending you!"

Xie Jin was stunned for a moment, and then smiled, "Okay! ”

So they rode slowly towards the city gate.

Xie Zhen wanted to talk to the eldest uncle, so he didn't retract his head back into the car, and saw that the eldest uncle was riding alone, and there was no one to see him off except for a burden, and he was empty in front of and behind him, so he couldn't help but ask: "Uncle, why didn't they come to see you off?" ”

Xie Jin chuckled: "Uncle went out this time and came back in half a year, very fast, what is there to give?" Your aunt and uncle are all coming to see me off, and I persuaded them to leave. ”

Half a year seemed to him as if it was not worth mentioning, and Xie Hao couldn't help but be speechless, "Uncle's life has passed much faster than ours." ”

Xie Jin laughed and said: "Zhen'er is still young now, every day is fresh, and you will understand when you grow up." At my age, ten years are like a day, what is half a year? ”

Xie Zhen thought that she was imprisoned in Feng'an Palace in that life, and a year passed in the blink of an eye. I agree with his words very much at the moment, but it's better to keep this topic too heavy or not to continue, so Xie Zhen only nodded, leaned against the car window and thought quietly without speaking.

Xie Jin only thought that the little girl was tired, and he didn't take it to heart.

Fifteen large board cars lined up outside the city. Xie Hao got out of the carriage and saw more than a dozen hemp bags piled up on each cart, and made a rough calculation in her heart, but because she didn't know how big the area and population of Pingle County was, she was still a little unsure whether these grains were enough for the people of Pingle County, so she called San'er, who drove for her, and said, "Do you see if these grains are enough for the people of Pingle County?" ”

San'er shook his head and said, "It's not enough, it's not enough, this grain is only enough for the people in our county to eat for three days." ”

So much is only enough to eat for three days? Xie Hao didn't believe it, but she also knew in her heart that San'er's words would not be much worse than the truth even if they were a little exaggerated.

Xie Jin also heard the conversation between them, so he said: "This kid is right, but this is only the first batch of grain escorted by me, and there are two more batches to follow." ”

San'er hurriedly said: "Two more batches are not enough!" ”

Xie Zhen gave him a blank look. "Where do you think this food comes from? It was requisitioned from somewhere else, not from heaven. Although these three batches of grain can't solve all the problems, they can solve the problem for a while, you have a lot of land in Pingle County, you can take this opportunity to open up the wasteland and farm the land to get food! ”

Xie Jin didn't expect her to be so transparent at such a young age, so he only glanced at her approvingly, "Zhen'er is so smart." ”

Xie Zhen said with a smile: "It is better to teach people to fish than to teach them to fish, I learned it from books." ”

Xie Jin nodded with a smile, "Zhen'er, I'm about to go." Go back. ”

Xie Zhen smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'll wait for the eldest uncle to leave and then go back." ”

Xie Jin stopped urging her, and went to the front to arrange an errand.

Xie Zhen thought that he couldn't hear her anymore, so he asked San'er, "San'er." Would you like to go with the eldest master? ”

San'er was stunned, and suddenly said with a bitter face: "Miss, aren't you trying to drive me away?" ”

This little beggar was a little reluctant to stay after being taken back to Xie Mansion by Xie Zhen to recover from his injuries, firstly, because he was ashamed that he had done such a disgraceful thing as a thief, and secondly, he was unwilling to eat the Xie family's food for nothing, after all, he was still a backbone teenager. It's just that Xie Zhen said that he could save the people of Pingle County for him, and said that he didn't let him eat white rice, but that he would do things with the little guys in the house in exchange for three meals a day, so San'er stayed. People get along with each other, and over time they will have feelings, San'er is just a child's heart, and Yunlai and their little maids have been together for a long time, so they are naturally more willing to stay in Xie Mansion, and when they heard Xie Zhen say that he would go to Pingle County with this Xie Jin, he was inevitably a little anxious for a while, just because Xie Zhen didn't want him to run errands for her.

Xie Zhen saw that he was nervous, both angry and funny, and he couldn't help but say his plans to make him feel at ease.

"Don't worry!" She said angrily: "It's not that you will stay in Pingle County and not return to Xie Mansion, as long as the eldest lord comes back, you can follow him back, I just think that you are familiar with the customs of Pingle County, and the eldest lord can save you some trouble, how about it, are you willing to go with him?" ”

San'er heard her say this, as if the role he wanted him to play was still very important, so he patted his chest and said, "I'll go!" ”

The corners of Xie Zhen's mouth hooked, and she nodded with satisfaction: "I'll go and talk to the eldest uncle." ”

But Xie Zhen had another statement in front of Xie Jin.

"Let San'er go, he is from Pingle County, he is familiar with the place, when the time comes, you can run errands or run errands for your uncle, if you really don't need him, let him wash your feet and wash your clothes!"

She didn't want Xie Jin to feel that she still had to rely on the ability of a small guy, so she said this.

Xie Jin couldn't laugh or cry, but seeing her resolute face, he had no choice but to agree.

"However, he was the one who drove the car for you, if he left with me now, how would you go back?"

That's right. Xie Zhen looked back at the carriage she was in, her heart moved, and she turned around and said without hesitation: "It's okay, I'll just lead the carriage back later!" ”

Xie Jin couldn't help laughing, how could she say that she was also the sixth lady of the Xie family, how could she act so detached and uninhibited?

Xie Zhen really didn't take this little thing to heart. blinked his eyes, and said: "I remember when I came to the capital last year, I saw a small tea shop in front of the official road outside the city, uncle, you might as well stop there now, drink some tea and then leave!" ”

Xie Jin also knew about the small tea shop. It's not far outside the city, but it's not far from the road, so why don't you have to rest?

Zhen'er is a child after all. Xie Jin shook his head and smiled.

Although Xie Jin didn't care about Xie Zhen's suggestion, when the convoy passed by the small tea shop, San'er, who was pulled by Xie Zhen and carefully told him before leaving, jumped off the board. He trotted forward and grabbed the reins of the horse under Xie Jin's seat.

Xie Jin frowned, and San'er said with a smile on his face without waiting for him to speak: "Master, let the brothers drink saliva before leaving?" ”

Xie Jin originally took the lead, but at this time he was pulled by San'er and stopped the horse, and the cart behind him naturally stopped, he looked back at the accompanying officials, and saw that they were all wiping sweat with their sleeves, and he felt a little unbearable, so he only sighed, turned over and dismounted.

Three sons and one joy. Hurriedly shouted to those officials and said, "My lord, let the brothers rest first!" ”

The officials and errands immediately threw away the cart, some pounded their shoulders, some stretched their waists, and praised the kindness of Xie Jin, and everyone walked into the tea shop with their shoulders hooked.

There were already three customers in the tea shop.

A good-looking young man in brocade clothes sat alone at a table, and the tea that was lighter than water in a small tea shop like this couldn't enter his mouth, but he ordered a large pot of tea, poured a full cup, and drank it slowly and carelessly.

He seems to be drinking tea and seems to be waiting for someone.

Because he was sitting facing the doorway, though he was drinking tea. But even when he poured the tea, his eyes were looking out the door.

At the table next to him sat two old men—a sober old man, and a drunk old man.

How could the old man get drunk in a tea shop? Because the old man drinks not tea, but wine. The best 30-year-old cellar.

But although he had a full stomach full of wine worms, he didn't have a good amount of alcohol, so he quickly got drunk, and he almost missed the business, and they were sitting here to wait for someone.

Fortunately, although he was drunk, there was also an old man who still remained awake,

Jiang He looked at the old man who was lying on the table in front of him and was full of alcohol, he was a little helpless, he was ordered by Xie Yu to go to Pingle County with Xie Jin to control the epidemic. As long as it is to save people, he has always had no second words, but this time he really can't understand why Xie Yu must let him go with this drunkard old man, could it be that this old drunkard is a hidden master?

Jiang He naturally didn't know that this qiē was what Xie Zhen meant, and he didn't know that the drunkard old man in front of him was Liang Fengxian, the world's first divine doctor, who he had always admired.

Jiang He and Liang Fengxian, who knew nothing, sat in this tea shop early in the morning and waited, during which there was no one except the young man in brocade, and the person they were waiting for was even more delayed, Jiang He and Liang Fengxian couldn't talk, and when Liang Fengxian got drunk, he was even more bored.

But the man they were waiting for finally came.

The officials who poured in immediately crowded the small tea shop, and the small tea shop instantly became lively.

The eyes of the young man in brocade who had been looking at the door suddenly lit up.

Xie Jin had already walked in with a steady pace.

The table in the small tea shop was already full, and only the table where the young man in brocade was sitting still had a vacant seat, so Xie Jin strode over without thinking about it.

The brocade-clad boy immediately stood up.

Xie Jin didn't pay much attention when he was originally sitting, but now that he suddenly stood up, Xie Jin couldn't help but be taken aback when he saw it.

"The Emperor's ......"

The brocade-clad boy shook his head at him gently.

Xie Jin had no choice but to swallow the rest of the words back, but he was still curious about his intentions, and hesitated: "Big ...... Son, why are you here? ”

This brocade-clothed boy is Yan Ming!

Yan Ming smiled and stretched out his hand to invite, "Lord Xie, please take a seat." ”

He actually asked him to sit, of course Xie Jin couldn't help but sit.

Yan Ming said with a smile: "If the adults want to help me, then I have to do my best to solve problems for the adults, so as to repay the adults." ”

He was talking about the words that Xie Jin said he was willing to support him in the carriage that day.

Xie Jin also reacted, this is Yan Ming's promise not to let Dong Dang take the opportunity to harm him into action.

With His Royal Highness the Grand Prince accompanying him, he can really save a lot of trouble, for example, those magistrates who are like dogskin plasters can be sent away lightly - as long as His Royal Highness the Great Prince's face sinks, who would dare to hit the muzzle of the gun?

Xie Jin smiled, poured himself a cup of tea, and handed the cup to the front and said, "Then Xie Mou will thank the eldest prince with tea instead of wine." ”

Yan Ming smiled and stretched out his teacup, "Lord Xie is polite." ”

Liang Fengxian, who was drunk and only lying on the table to sober up, suddenly sobered up when he heard Xie Jin mention the word wine.

"Where's the wine?" He propped himself up and staggered and shouted.

Originally, he had been paying attention to the movements of Xie Jin and Yan Ming, and just wanted to wait for them to finish speaking, so he came forward to report to Jiang He, who was at home, and couldn't wait to press Liang Fengxian's head into the table.

Liang Fengxian really attracted the attention of everyone in the tea shop, and a gleam flashed in Xie Jin's eyes.

"This old gentleman is too drunk." He asked Jiang He with a smile: "Why don't you send him back to rest?" ”

Jiang He stroked his long beard and said simply: "The reason why we are here is to wait for someone, and neither I nor him can leave until that person." ”

Xie Jin said: "It's just waiting for someone, so how can this old gentleman get drunk?" ”

Jiang He sneered: "It's because the person we have to wait for has not come that he is drunk." ”

Xie Jin raised an eyebrow.

Jiang He couldn't help but sigh again and said, "Fortunately, the person we are waiting for is finally here." ”

Xie Jin frowned, looked around with a gesture, and said curiously: "Who is the old gentleman waiting for?" ”

Jiang He looked at him and said, "We are waiting for you." ”

"Oh?" Xie Jin seemed a little surprised, but he didn't ask them where they came from, nor why they were waiting for him, he only smiled lightly: "It turns out that the old gentleman is waiting for me, since he has waited for me now, can he go?" ”

Jiang He said: "Yes, let's go!" ”

He didn't say this to the drunk Liang Fengxian, but to Xie Jin.

Xie Jin frowned and said, "Does the old gentleman want to go with us?" ”

Jiang He nodded and said, "Exactly." ”

Yan Ming saw these two old men since he came to this tea shop, and he didn't take them in his eyes at that time, but now when he heard this old man talk like this, he knew what kind of great masters they should be, and thought that he had been sitting beside them for so long without noticing, maybe he was secretly observed by them, and he suddenly felt a little angry in his heart, and couldn't help but ask, "Who are you?" What is the purpose of pretending to be mysterious? ”

Jiang He didn't know Yan Ming, just heard Xie Jin call him the eldest prince, so he only thought that he was the eldest young master of the rich and noble family, and he didn't expect him to be His Royal Highness the prince of the Great Jin Dynasty, so he didn't speak very politely, and only said lightly: "Jiang He is a doctor, where there are patients, I naturally have to go there." ”
