Chapter 97: Return to Beijing
"I'm guilty, I'm damned, I'm not human!"
The steward cried and smacked his mouth hard. Xie Shiyun frowned at this scene, he repented now, but the lives of those people who should have been relieved could never come back.
The case has come to light, all the stolen money has been recovered, and food prices have returned to normal. The city lord of Zhangzhou used all the money to buy food, and the people of Zhangzhou finally no longer had to go hungry.
"Lord Shen, His Royal Highness An Chen, now that the disaster in Zhangzhou has been solved, the disaster relief in the surrounding areas of Zhangzhou will be organized by the lower officials, and you can also leave for Beijing."
"I'm tired of the king."
Xie Shiyun and Shen Sijun, as well as a group of soldiers who came to escort supplies, stood at the gate of Zhangzhou City. Wang Yan was very reluctant to Xie Shiyun, threw herself into her arms, and said sullenly, "Your Highness, don't forget me after you return to the capital." ”
"Don't worry, I can't forget it, I'll take you to the capital to play when I have the chance."
"Uh-huh!"
Wang Xiu stood beside the city lord of Zhangzhou, looking at Xie Shiyun's eyes full of reluctance, he still couldn't tell Xie Shiyun his mind after all. He knew that Xie Shiyun already had the most excellent person by her side, who could protect her and love her.
"Your Highness, take care all the way."
"Young City Lord, take care, you will definitely be able to do something in the future."
"Your Highness, it's time for us to go."
"Well, everyone."
Xie Shiyun got into the carriage and lifted the curtain to look in, Wang Yan waved at her until she couldn't see them anymore. Without the weight of supplies, the team was moving almost a third faster than when they had arrived. However, the bumps on the road still made Xie Shiyun very uncomfortable.
"Childe, if you feel uncomfortable, you have to talk to Weichen, Weichen's injury has healed."
Shen Sijun stood behind her and helped her smooth her back, sighing helplessly. Xie Shiyun took the handkerchief handed over by Shen Sijun after vomiting, and it was a little difficult to stand up straight.
"W-Is this raining?"
There were drops of water on the tip of her nose, and she looked up at the sky, and found that it was overcast at some point. Is the drought finally going away? After a while, the raindrops began to intensify - and the rain finally came.
The soldiers all put on their robes, and they thought it was useless to bring this thing at first, but they didn't expect it to rain not long after they came out of Zhangzhou. Xie Shiyun had never been so happy, and even burst into tears with excitement. The long-arid land is finally about to be reborn, and the people are saved.
Shen Sijun was not very happy, because this sudden rain made him lose the opportunity to ride a horse with Xie Shiyun in his arms. Shen Sijun, who was wearing a cloak and a hat, had a very gloomy aura.
"Lord Shen, are you okay?"
Xie Shiyun's car curtain was lifted, because the hot and rainy weather could finally be relieved, so that the marching team felt a burst of coolness. The occasional cool breeze made Xie Shiyun only feel comfortable physically and mentally, and the fatigue along the way seemed to disappear at this moment.
"Childe, it's hard to walk on the mountain road when it's raining, the speed of the team will slow down, and the road after that may not be so bumpy."
"yes, I see."
By the time the rain stopped, they were almost on the edge of Rongchuan, where they had been dry for months, and now it had rained heavily for nearly seven days.
"It seems that God is ready to make up for what was lacking at once."
"yes."
Xie Shiyun took a nap in the carriage, and after waking up, she subconsciously touched her waist, only to find that the amulet that Shen Wenwen gave her was missing. Xie Shiyun immediately sobered up, rummaging around and not finding it in the carriage.
"What's wrong, Childe?"
"My bag is gone, it's the one that Shen Dudu gave me before!"
When Shen Sijun heard that Xie Shiyun was so nervous, his face was a little unsightly.
"Wechen has never seen it, maybe he was lost somewhere on the road."
When Shen Sijun said this, his eyes glanced away, and the bag was indeed taken by him. When he was in contact with Xie Shiyun before, he took advantage of Xie Shiyun's inattention to untie the rope and take away the bag. When he saw Shen Wenwen's things on Xie Shiyun's body, he became more and more irritable.
The hairpin he gave to Xie Shiyun before, he had never seen Xie Shiyun wear it on his head.
After Xie Shiyun was sure that it was really lost, she was very depressed, it was something that Shen Wen regarded as a treasure, but she lost it. How should she explain to Shen Wenwen after returning to Beijing. She had thought that she would return it to him when she returned.
"What should I do, after I returned to Beijing, I still wanted to return the property to its original owner, but now that I have lost it, I don't know how to compensate him."
Shen Sijun immediately looked at her when he heard this, he didn't know that Xie Shiyun still had this plan, and he was annoyed that he had done it too early. Now that the contact between Xie Shiyun and Shen Wenwen is between him, he will definitely not be able to interfere anymore.
Shen Sijun suddenly became gloomy and stopped saying anything. Xie Shiyun didn't notice Shen Sijun's reaction, and was thinking about how to face Shen Wenwen after he went back.
Finally, after more than a month, Xie Shiyun and Shen Sijun and the disaster relief team finally returned to the capital. When he returned to the capital, Vice General Li took people to wait outside the capital, and there was another person who surprised Xie Shiyun.
"Why is Shen Dudu here?"
"Knowing that Her Royal Highness the Princess is going back to Beijing, Weichen will wait here with Vice General Li, after all, I hope that Her Royal Highness the Princess can see Weichen as soon as she returns to Beijing."
"The virtuous nephew has a heart, but we are going to enter the city now and hope that the virtuous nephew will make way."
"Yes, Her Royal Highness Princess, please rest for a good time today, and please wait for Weichen after retiring from the court tomorrow."
Such a blatant invitation and the affection in the words made everyone present feel puzzled, and the interaction between Xie Shiyun and Shen Sijun along the way was obvious to all. They smelled a strong smell of gossip.
"Okay, then I'll go back to the palace first."
Xie Shiyun lowered the curtain of the car, and the group entered the gate of the capital in a mighty manner. Xie Shiyun needed to return to Emperor Anhe with Shen Sijun, and Emperor Anhe was very relieved to receive the excerpt that the drought had been lifted. immediately rewarded Xie Shiyun and Shen Sijun.
"An Chen, your princess's mansion has been built, you will be able to move in in a few days, you can choose your own date, I have already asked people to prepare everything for you."
"Yes, thank you, Father."
"Go and meet your mother, she misses you very much."
Emperor An He also knew the mother-daughter relationship between Xie Shiyun and the queen, and smiled and asked her to step down. Xie Shiyun and Shen Sijun passed by and left the Jinluan Palace.
"Shen Qing, you have completed a good task this time, and you deserve to be my important minister."
"The emperor is serious, and it is the duty and duty of a courtier to solve problems for the emperor." Emperor An He nodded and drafted an edict of reward, and let Shen Sijun leave the palace.
Xie Shiyun returned to Changle Palace with a tired body, Fei Yu was the first to see her, and happily pounced directly. Sixi and Seventeen and others also came around, and they were all very concerned about Xie Shiyun's situation along the way.
