Chapter 127: The Appointment of the Capital
His face became more and more pale, and on the carriage was the last step of Song Jiang to prick Li Qing's needle, after pulling out all the needles, Li Qing vomited a mouthful of blood, and after that, the black part of the blood was also exhausted, and the rest was bright red blood, and the feeling of tiredness on his body slowly dissipated.
It's also that Li Qing has a good body, and being tossed by Song Jiang for so long and still being able to stand here and talk and laugh can be regarded as strong willpower, Zhen Chutian is precisely because he knows this point, so he will always be by his side, and he doesn't dare to leave quickly, for fear that he won't be able to hold it if he leaves Li Qing.
Fortunately, it was not very far, and he soon arrived at Zhen Chutian's home.
"Mother-in-law, I'm back."
Looking at Granny Xuan sitting under the pear blossom tree in the courtyard, Zhen Chutian had some tears in her eyes, even though it had only been a few days, Zhen Chutian thought about Granny Xuan very much.
The old man holding the needle under the tree instinctively turned around and looked at the door of his house after hearing Zhen Chutian's words, his white pupils looked at Zhen Chutian gently even if he couldn't see the figure, and his kind face made people not afraid of those white pupils.
rushed up in three steps and two steps, hugged Granny Xuan, and just hugged it, Zhen Chutian was originally a person who was not good at expressing his emotions, and only by holding this person in his arms would he feel some of Zhen Chutian's unusual coldness.
"Chu Tian is back, it's good to be back, but what's the injury?"
After a while, I saw Granny Xuan pull Zhen Chutian away from her arms, and a pair of calloused hands groped around Zhen Chutian's body, wanting to see if the daughter who was so far away from home to solve the case in Jianghu was injured.
"Mother-in-law, don't worry, Chu Tian is fine."
Let Granny Xuan's hands grope on her body, until Granny Xuan stopped, Zhen Chutian held Granny Xuan's hands and said softly.
"It's good to be good, it's good to be good, what's wrong with Song Jiang?"
When he left, Zhen Chutian went with Song Jiang, and he was only happy that Zhen Chutian came back intact, but he never heard Song Jiang's voice, and he couldn't help but worry.
"Mother-in-law, don't worry, I'm fine too."
Seeing Granny Xuan asking about herself, Song Jiang hurriedly replied, but she couldn't help but feel a warm current flowing in her heart, as if no one had comforted him like this for a long time, but her mind couldn't help but recall that when Jiang Hu was in Jiang, if his luck was not very good, I am afraid that he would have died at that time, and maybe someone would have been sad for himself.
Granny Xuan's words not only made Song Jiang a little sad, but even Li Qing was the same.
This trip to Jiang Hu, they almost lost two people, Jiang Hu is a big dream for them, but now that they wake up, there are still some bad memories, probably not going to Jiang Hu in the future.
After a few people talked to Granny Xuan for a while, they left, after all, they are now in official positions, and they naturally have to go to the yamen to report when they come back, so Song Jiang was left alone at home, and it happened that he had not been able to regulate his body for Granny Xuan for a long time.
When he went out, it was the withdrawn Zhen Chutian, who put away the superfluous expression on his face, and followed Li Qing towards the mansion.
I didn't tell the government in advance that they would come back, but they entered the hall where they were ordered every day, and a few catchers were still babbling and didn't know what they were discussing.
"Ahem."
Seeing that no one had taken care of him for a long time, Li Qing couldn't help but make some noises with a blue face.
A few people were already playing, but at this time, they were startled by the old-fashioned coughing sound behind them, and jumped down from the big wooden table in a panic, and when they saw the people behind them, several people couldn't help but run up with a smile.
"Li Zhu, Zhen, you can be regarded as back!"
Continuing the chatter, one by one whispered in the ears of the two of them about what had happened in their absence these days, and before they could finish speaking, one of them hurried in.
"There is an appointment, there is an appointment from Zhen and Li Zhutou."
The man originally came to inform his brother, but he never expected that the two people in his mouth were standing in front of him, and they were very tacitly blocking his way.
"Appointment?"
This was said by Zhen Chutian, without any temperature, just a little frown.
"Yes, yes, it's the order of Zhen and Li Zhutou, Lord Zhou is talking to the person who came to deliver the message, if you can still see it in the past at this time."
He hurried back after hearing the shocking news outside the door, and even the people in the room did not see clearly, nor did he hear the words that followed.
However, none of this mattered, because Zhen Chutian and Li Qing had already gone to the place that the man had just said.
Until he entered the banquet hall, Zhen Chutian was still a little puzzled, this order is even forgotten if Li Qing is there, why is there still a share of him Zhen Chutian?
After getting the words of Lord Zhou inside, the two took a deep breath and then walked in.
"Huh? Zhen Chutian and Li Qing are here? Sit, sit. ”
Warmly greeted Zhen Chutian and Li Qing to stay, and which person dressed as a eunuch was sitting in the wrong position, and their Lord Zhou was smiling with wrinkled faces.
"Thank you, sir."
"Thank you, sir."
The two of them were not polite, and obediently obeyed the words.
"These two are Zhen Chutian, Zhen and Li Qing, and Li Catch?"
The sharp voice came, and Zhen Chutian thought out of place whether all the eunuchs were the same.
"Yes, Father-in-law Zhou is really discerning, these two have just rushed over from Jianghu, and now they have just entered the mansion."
secretly glanced at the two of them, and saw that they had no intention of blocking themselves, and they were still smart, but they just thought of the content of the order, and tried their best to suppress the flame of jealousy in their hearts.
"Now that they've both returned, I'm going to make a decree."
I saw that Zhou's father-in-law's eyes turned around, so he said a poop in front of Lord Zhou, and without waiting for a few people to react, he picked up the holy decree on the side and was about to read it.
Seeing this, Zhen Chutian and Li Qing hurriedly knelt down.
"Fengtian carrier, the empress edict said, the murder case of Jianghu has been solved, Fulai County arrested Zhen Chutian and Li Qing are both heroes, and now this capital is upright and lacks talents, and after careful consideration, the emperor decided to transfer Li Qing and Zhen Chutian to the capital.
"Catch Li Qing into Dali Temple, seal Dali Temple, three days later, Qin this."
"Your Majesty Empress Xie."
"Your Majesty Empress Xie."
Like a pie falling from the sky, people were caught off guard, although the two of them were expressionless, but they involuntarily took out the silver in their hands and gave it to the father-in-law Zhou who read it.
"Congratulations to the two, Fulai County is inconvenient to the capital, and I hope the two of you will not live up to the trust of the empress."
With a smile, he accepted the silver handed to him, and congratulated him again before leaving.
Leaving all the congratulations behind him, Zhen Chutian walked out of the yamen in a daze, and walked back home slowly, looking at this road from the yamen to home, he was about to get acquainted, but now he was facing a move.
The vendors on the street are hawking, the neighbors are not comfortable arguing about something, anyway, they will be reconciled after a while, everything seems so comfortable, Zhen Chutian has a rare sense of belonging in his heart, he originally came back to Fulai County to retire with an abacus, but he never expected that now he was ordered to go to the capital.
Entering the courtyard, Song Jiang was still administering needles to Granny Xuan, but Granny Xuan had already fallen asleep.
"Song Jiang, what do you know about the capital Tiandu Mansion?"
Looking at Song Jiang's appearance and hesitated for a moment, Zhen Chutian slowly spoke.
"Huh? Tiandu Mansion? Why do you suddenly ask? ”
The hand that was about to get the needle paused slightly, and after a while, it returned to normal, and continued the topic of Fang Cai, thinking that what Zhen Chutian mentioned casually was that Song Jiang really wanted Zhen Chutian's answer.
"This Tiandu Mansion is also investigating the case, and Dali Temple, but this Tiandu Mansion is directly under Her Majesty the Empress, and the investigation is the case in this world, not limited to Kyoto, the Jade Linglong, the White Dragon Envoy, and Gu Chenghan who I saw in Jiang Hu before are also one of them, and this Gu Chenghan is the commander of the entire Tiandu Mansion."
Tiandu Mansion is a special existence in the entire Chifeng Kingdom, everyone in it is a capable person, and they have their own characteristics, and although it belongs directly to the empress, but there is no woman who can enter, so they are betting on who will be the first woman to enter Tiandu Mansion.
"Gu Chenghan?"
Na Na muttered to himself, but in his mind, he recalled Gu Chenghan's words when he left Jiang Hu, "We will meet soon." ”
Zhen Chutian was sure that Gu Chenghan must have known that he would be transferred to Tiandu Mansion a long time ago, so he would release him so simply.
"Today's order from the imperial court has come down, Li Qing and I have been transferred to the capital, I have entered the Tiandu Mansion, and Li Qing has entered the Dali Temple."
After hesitating for a moment, Zhen Chutian still said it, it was not an unsightly thing, but she was reluctant, she didn't like those etiquettes of kneeling and bowing, and after going to Tiandu Mansion, she had to abide by these messy etiquette for Zhen Chutian, and she was very dissatisfied in her heart.
Zhen Chutian's words were like dropping a time bomb on calm water, and even Granny Xuan, who had not yet slept grogily, was even more anxious after hearing Zhen Chutian's words.
"Red... Chu Tian! Are you going to the capital? ”
For Granny Xuan, Fulai County is her home for the rest of her life, but this has come to the end of the year but she has to relocate, although the capital is not far away, but it is really very tossed for her old wife.
"Mother-in-law, when I went to the government just now, the messenger was already waiting, and I didn't want to leave Fulai County."
It was rare to lie on Granny Xuan's lap, holding Granny Xuan's hand that was full of needles because of blind embroidery, but his heart was a little sour.
"Silly boy, since there is a person who has a summons, it must be impossible to shirk, it doesn't matter if you go to the capital, our family Chu Tian is a good child, and I will wronged you with this Fulai County as a little catcher."
Gently patted the hands that held him, the smile on his face did not change, even if he couldn't see it, but the appearance was kind and tight.
"Don't be wronged, mother-in-law, Chu Tian wants to be with you."
Although I am very dissatisfied in my heart, this is a world where the imperial power is greater than the sky, although the custom of the empress being the king is more open, but this does not mean that no matter who can provoke the power at will.
"Mother-in-law, you also want to go with Chu Tian when I go to the capital this time, I may not come back to Fulai County in the future, buy a piece of land in the capital when the time comes, and maybe settle in the capital in the future."
The reason why I don't want to go to the capital is just to stay away from those political powers, although Fulai County has many fewer rules, and the rest are freer, but how can a small county town compare with the central capital?
"Sister Zhen, you're back."
Just as he was about to say something, he saw a small bean ding rushing in from outside the courtyard, and suddenly pounced on Zhen Chutian's body, rubbing his head in Zhen Chutian's arms.
