Chapter 236: Arriving in Zhongjing
After the two brothers and sisters left, Jin Shu couldn't help but sit down and rub his feet. It is probably because the force is reciprocal, so the other party feels the pain at the same time she also feels her foot pain.
After that, what was the situation over there, Jinshu didn't continue to pay attention. When they had finished eating, it was not too early, and they each went back to the carriage and began to rest, but there was still a vigil by the fire.
The next day, when the sky gradually brightened, Jinshu woke up. Perhaps it was because she was too tired from the daytime rush yesterday, so although she didn't sleep comfortably in the carriage, she still had a good night's rest. Xiaoyue and the others have already warmed up their breakfast, so they will wait for Jinshu and Ye Shi to wake up and come out to eat, and then they will continue to Zhongjing.
The carriage next to it was gone, and the brother and sister should have left long ago last night. However, they were not in a hurry, so after eating and boiling some water, they continued to move forward in the carriage.
From Ren'an County to Zhongjing, Jinshu and they walked for nearly forty days. When I arrived in Nakyo, the climate also changed to the end of autumn and the beginning of winter.
Zhongjing City is worthy of being the capital of the Xia Kingdom, and this place is indeed more prosperous than any city that Jinshu has seen since he crossed over. And just looking at the buildings in the city, they are taller than places like Ren'an County or Los Angeles. Some of the shops look even more splendid from the outside.
Although they had sent a letter to Zhao Hui in advance, the specific time they arrived had not been determined, so Zhao Hui had no way to arrange someone to pick them up. But this is not difficult for the brocade book. It's not that the monarch gave Zhao Hui a mansion, and he should be able to find it if he inquired about it when he entered the city.
Although General Zhongwu is only a fourth-grade official, not as good as Xiao Xuanyi, a Dingyuan general, it is already a very great thing at Zhao Hui's age. Now, even if the common people in the city don't know, many powerful ministers in the court still know about Zhao Hui. However, their understanding of Zhao Hui is limited to his identity as Xiao Xuanyi's apprentice.
Sure enough, after Jinshu and their carriage entered the city, they only casually found a few people in the city and asked all the way, and quickly determined the approximate location of the Zhongwu General's Mansion.
Two carriages stopped at the entrance of the General's Palace. Jin Shu and Ye got out of the carriage and looked at the house in front of them, which covered a large area but had a closed door, and were very emotional.
Ping An stepped forward and knocked on the door. In a short time, the door was opened from the inside.
"Who are you looking for?" The porter had never seen Ping'an, and he didn't know the brocade book and others outside when he looked outside.
"Let's look for General Zhao, please inform me, just say that he is from his hometown."
The porter reacted instantly when he heard Ping'an say this, "Is it Miss Jinshu and Mrs. Ye from Shuzhou?" ”
"Exactly." Ping An smiled and nodded.
After getting a definite answer, the porter hurriedly opened the door and respectfully welcomed Jinshu and his party in. Then he called a few servants and asked them to pull the carriage that was parked outside into the house. After getting the news, the housekeeper quickly trotted out of the mansion, and happened to meet the Jinshu and Ye who went in.
"The two must be Miss Jinshu and Mrs. Jinshu! The slave Xu Maode is the housekeeper in the house, and he has seen two of them here. The housekeeper stood still in front of the brocade book and bowed his head to Ye and her.
"Steward Xu doesn't have to be polite." Ye exempted him from courtesy.
Steward Xu stood up straight, and just as Jinshu was about to ask where Zhao Hui was, he first opened his mouth to explain: "The general has gone to the barracks, and he will not be back until about evening. The two room minions have already arranged for someone to clean up, and the young lady and the lady might as well rest for half a day after lunch. The things in the carriage will also be sent to the two of them......"
Steward Xu seems to be a reliable housekeeper. Jin Shu and Ye Shi didn't express any opinions, and went back to the room to pack up their things first.
