Chapter 116: Farewell at the City Gate
"Brother Wang Yu is so polite,"
When Zong Jiyuan heard this, he couldn't help laughing,
"If you weren't careful, this time there would be endless troubles."
The two of them laughed and rushed to the hunting house, and when the messenger there saw the two, they were really overjoyed.
"Master, you're finally here!"
"yes, we thought we were abandoned!"
……
Zong Jiyuan looked at everyone, smiled and responded,
"How so? By the way, the wounded brothers are all right, right? ”
"It's okay, it's all minor injuries, and it's fine after bandaging."
The officers all said with a relaxed face.
Seeing that everything was normal, everyone packed up their things, escorted a few captured thieves, left from there, and then burned down the hunting house, and even if it was all settled, everyone returned to Liaodong County with the joy of victory......
One morning, ten days later, after a continuous busy day, he finally got free time, and Soji Moto, who could relax, threw himself into the recliner and drank tea comfortably, so that his whole body was soothed.
At this time, Ke Yi cautiously came to the door and shouted through the screen curtain,
"Master, are you there?"
"Ah, what's the matter?"
While replying, Zong Jiyuan put the teacup on the coffee table next to him and sat up instinctively.
There was a bit of naughtiness in Ke Yi's voice,
"It's not a big deal, it's just that someone came to the yamen, saying that he was looking for you, master."
"Looking for me? Why didn't you let him in? ”
Zong Jiyuan stood up in surprise and walked a few steps to the door and asked.
When Ke Yi saw her come out, he smiled and said,
"He himself refuses to come in, what can we do, and people are not something that we petty officials can invite."
"Who the hell is it......"
Because he felt inexplicable, Zong Jiyuan couldn't help frowning,
"Okay, I'll get out of here."
As he spoke, he tidied up his clothes a little, and walked towards the gate of the county government. When I got to the gate, I realized that the person who came was Sobra, the major general of Shengjing.
At this time, Sobra was dressed in civilian clothes, but she looked more chic, and when she saw her, she jumped off her horse and shouted,
"Ji Yuan!"
"Major General Suo?"
Zong Jiyuan was slightly stunned and said with a smile,
"What kind of wind is this, blowing your big man to our little yamen?"
"Don't make fun of me,"
Sobra shook her head lightly and smiled helplessly,
"I'm here to tell you that the imperial court is going to transfer Ama back to the capital before the end of the year. Ama means that I and E-Niang will rush over first, and we will leave in a few days, so we are pressed for time, so I want to come and see you. ”
"Oh, I see......"
Hearing his words, Zong Jiyuan was stunned again, but he didn't know what to say.
With Sobra's confident confession last time, if he said anything affectionate and reluctant to him, would it make the other party feel that this was Zong Jiyuan's response to his feelings; But if you don't say anything, or just say a cold "Oh, you know, then you're good to go", isn't it too impersonal......
Seeing that Zong Jiyuan was just looking at him in a daze, Sobra raised his hand again, and it was obviously towards her head, but suddenly changed direction and pressed heavily on her shoulder,
"By the way, remember what you said yourself, you won't marry someone else, just wait for me."
"Huh?!"
Zong Jiyuan suddenly cried and laughed, when did the words he said be distorted by him like this,
"What are you talking about, that's not what I said......
"Okay, good, good, I'm going to tease you."
Sobra laughed proudly because of the success of his prank, which provoked the two servants and probes guarding the gate to look out curiously.
Zong Jiyuan was not as happy as him, and said with a small face,
"You guy, don't make a good impression on me before leaving."
"Of course I have to keep a good impression,"
Sobra still had a smile on her face, and as she spoke, she took out a white jade wrench, reached out and pulled the other party's left hand, and put it on her thumb for her.
"This is a gift from the emperor, I Ama gave it to me, and I now let you keep it for me, if you want to marry one day, take this to the capital to find me...... However, your little finger is too thin, so be careful not to lose it. ”
"You ......"
Zong Jiyuan didn't know what to say, so he paused and said with a wry smile,
"Are you all so direct in expressing your feelings?"
"Of course,"
Sobra said with a straight look,
"It's not a wrong thing to like someone, it's not easy to meet a person you really like, it's not very easy, if you Han people are so awkward and around, if you miss the opportunity, you won't regret it for life, so I like you, I want to marry you, I must let you know, as for whether you want to marry me, that's your business, of course, it's up to you to decide."
"Oh,"
Zong Jiyuan listened to what he said, although he felt fresh, but he had to admit that it was indeed very reasonable, so he pursed his lips and smiled,
"Okay, you're right, then, I'll keep this wrench for you first. Don't stand here, come to me for a cup of tea and rest. ”
"No, I have to rush back immediately,"
As he spoke, Sobra turned back and pulled the reins of his horse.
"My mother didn't know that I ran out, and now I can't send people to look for me everywhere in the capital."
"Then I'll send you."
Zong Jiyuan held back a smile as he pulled out his horse from the yamen.
The two of them walked side by side, walking on the street leading to the North City Gate in Liaodong County, Sobra looked at Zong Jiyuan and thought about it, and said,
"Ji Yuan, the case of the Dongshangou thief has been reported to the capital and closed, do you have any plans after that?"
"What are you going to do?"
Zong Jiyuan knew what he meant, but he pretended to be confused and asked,
"You also said that the case has been closed, what are the plans?"
"Don't try to lie to me, you little one,"
Sobra glanced at her and smiled slightly,
"You think I can't see it, there are still many doubts in this case, and Ji Yuan you may have found more than I have seen, don't you?"
"yes,"
Having said that, Zong Jiyuan no longer concealed it, and said calmly,
"Since investigating this case, I always feel that many things are involved, and I thought that I would find at least some answers by taking Dongshangou, but the case is closed, but there are more doubts, which is really laughable."
"You're right,"
Sobra sighed and said,
"There is a very large and deep force hidden in this Shengjing Mansion, and the Dongshan Gorge is only a part of it, our Admiral's Mansion is because we received a wire report to ask for instructions, and the capital has issued an approval, and we are only allowed to destroy them, and the others are not allowed to be investigated. You also know that the garrison is not allowed to interfere in politics, so we can only do it. ”
"I see,"
Zong Jiyuan nodded and said softly,
"It seems that our county is still lucky, so we can get the assistance of the major general, otherwise if you want to get rid of those thieves, you can't do it anyway."
"And Major General Ben's luck is even better, to be able to see you Ji Yuan again, this is more important than anything else!"
Sobra said with a look on his face that he had taken advantage of.
Zong Jiyuan was really a little speechless, and couldn't help but roll his eyelids to the sky, but Sobra didn't wait for her to say anything, looked up, and saw that he had already gone out of the city gate.
"Okay, Ji Yuan, you stay, don't send it again."
"That ......"
Zong Jiyuan didn't know what to say, so he bit his lip and said,
"Then, Ji Yuan wishes you a bright future and a smooth journey!"
"Uh-huh, thanks,"
Sobra nodded, and suddenly said earnestly,
"Actually, I'm nothing, it's just that the officialdom is very sinister, and Ji Yuan, you have a pure heart, you must be careful when you act, plus I'm not in Shengjing anymore, and I want to help but I'm too far away, so you must take care of yourself."
"Ji Yuan wrote it down, thank you Brother Suo."
Zong Jiyuan bowed to him again.
Hearing her change her title from "General Suo" to "Brother Suo", Sobra smiled heartily and said, "There will be a period later", and then beat his horse and whipped his horse, and went all the way away......
The second part is over
