Chapter Twenty-Eight: King Ning

As Xia Sihan guessed, the owner of this chariot was the king of Chaoning, and he returned to the city this time just to pay tribute to the deceased.

Li Jinyan looked at the faint figure in the chariot, and a strange feeling rose in his heart.

There seemed to be an inexplicable sense of familiarity, which made him uncomfortable.

After the chariot passed, the officers and soldiers dispersed, and Li Jinyan held Xia Sihan's hand, and the strange feeling gradually dissipated.

"Brother Jin, this is an official who is bigger than the county official, right? Look at how magnificent the chariot was! ”

Huzi turned his head and looked at the direction where the team disappeared just now and sighed in admiration, Li Jinyan nodded slightly, it is indeed magnificent, but now it is time for them to return.

"Let's go, it's going to be a long time if we delay any longer."

Xia Sihan reminded him that Huzi was busy pushing the wheelbarrow towards the city gate.

As usual, he had to be interrogated, but because Fang Cai Ning Wang passed the chariot, the interrogation was even more severe at this time.

Not only should they be checked for entrainment, but they should also be asked to take off their clothes to see if they are injured.

Xia Sihan's heart was shocked! However, I was relieved to think that Li Jinyan was an old injury.

Sure enough, after seeing the scar on Li Jinyan's shoulder, the soldier guarding the door stared at him for a while before letting him pass, Xia Sihan's heart fell, and he hurriedly helped him pack up and prepare to leave.

Just as he was about to leave, a loud shout suddenly sounded behind him!

"Wait!"

Xia Sihan's heart jumped in shock, and when she turned around, she saw someone stopping a man behind her.

Li Jinyan also reacted, hugged Xia Sihan and left in a hurry.

The three of them ran out of a few miles in one breath before they took a breath, and Xia Sihan really couldn't walk.

"Brother Jin, if there are herbs next time, come on, I feel hard to walk once, and I can't run anymore."

Although she is not a pampered young lady, she has not traveled so far in the countryside for so many years, let alone frightened.

Now that she has come to the city and experienced so much, her heart has been up and down, and she can't slow down for a long time.

Hearing this, Li Jinyan comforted her and said: "Don't be afraid, I'll carry you, if we have herbs in the future, Huzi can come alone." ”

"Yes, sister-in-law, I know the way, the shopkeeper is also a real person, I will be diligent in the future, I can still make money by running errands!"

Huzi's words made Xia Sihan laugh, Li Jinyan walked up to her and squatted down, Xia Sihan was really tired, and he climbed up directly without pretentiousness.

Li Jinyan's broad shoulders made her heart warm, if she could stay with him in a small mountain village after taking revenge, what a pleasant thing it would be?

On the way back, Li Jinyan kept carrying her on his back, and when he was about to reach the entrance of the village, Xia Sihan couldn't help it, looking at the fine beads of sweat on his forehead, Xia Sihan was very distressed.

Standing on tiptoe and carefully wiping away his sweat with a handkerchief, he looked at the tiger on the side.

Xia Sihan blushed at this time and took Li Jinyan's arm back.

After they left, a figure came out in the dark, and when he saw Xia Sihan's slender figure, the man smiled.

Li Jinyan, I never expected the retribution to come so quickly, and soon you will kneel down and beg me.

A very spicy touch flashed on Li Goudan's face, and he turned around and disappeared into the darkness.

At the door of Li Jinyan's house, Li's mother was looking forward to it, these three people had been gone for a day, and if it was dark today, Li's mother couldn't help but worry.

Seeing the figure at the door from afar, Li Jinyan walked over quickly and shouted to his mother!

"Jinyan, Sihan, you're back!"

Li Jinyan asked Huzi to push the cart home, and he and Xia Sihan came back with cloth and embroidery thread.

Seeing her mother, she hurriedly welcomed her into the house.

"Mother, martial law is under fire in the city, and we are only late to come back."

Li Jinyan took a big sip of tea and wiped his mouth, then took a breath and said, Xia Sihan came back and went into the kitchen to get busy, and after a while, he brought out gnocchi and shortbread, and a bowl of braised fish.

Mother Li was very distressed when she looked at them, but when she heard that martial law was imposed in the city, she couldn't help but be curious.

"This world is getting more and more peaceful, what is going on?"

"It's not a big deal, it's just that King Ning returned to his hometown and province, there were more officers and soldiers, and his daughter-in-law was greedy, so he patronized and looked at the fabric, so it was delayed."

Xia Sihan took over the conversation and explained, deliberately hiding the notice at the city gate, just because he didn't want his mother-in-law to worry.

But when Mother Li heard the word Ning Wang, she dropped her chopsticks with a snap, and the two of them were so scared that they didn't dare to make a sound.

"Mother!"

It took a long time for Li Jinyan to ask, and Li's mother picked up the chopsticks in a panic, with a hidden smile on her face.

"It's okay, it's just that I've been standing for a long time today, and I'm a little tired when you come back, let's eat!"

Although his mother said this, Li Jinyan still felt that something was wrong, and was about to ask, but someone kicked him lightly under his feet, and when he looked up, he saw Xia Sihan shaking his head at him gently, and he had to press it.

After the meal, Mother Li went back to the back room directly under the pretext that she was tired, and Xia Sihan and Li Jinyan returned to their own room, worried.

She remembered her previous life, when she met Li Jinyan, he was already the son of a certain family, known as the third son, but she didn't have the slightest impression of his rank.

Speaking of King Ning today, her mother-in-law's abnormal reaction really made her feel strange, she had a bold idea, if it wasn't King Ning, it would be Jin Yan's biological father?

But after thinking about it, it's unlikely, if it's true, why did the mother-in-law say that Brother Jin has no father?

Xia Sihan really couldn't figure it out, and Li Jinyan too, he felt that his mother was wrong before, and when Sihan said that concubine, his mother's face was ugly, and now when he mentioned King Ning, his mother lost her temper again.

Could it be that the mother is related to King Naning?

Thinking of this, Li Jinyan was shocked! No way! His mother had been widowed and raised him for many years, so how could he question his mother's innocence?

Li Jinyan sighed, hugged Xia Sihan and said, "Sihan, if you are free another day, you have to help me ask my mother, she is really strange at dinner today." ”

Xia Sihan also felt it, but she still comforted: "If my mother has a secret that she doesn't want to tell, we still don't have to dig deeper, in case it is a bad memory, wouldn't it make my mother sad?" ”

"I used to think so, but for so many years, I only knew that my father was gone, but I never mourned his old man."

He also asked his mother, but she only shed tears, and when she asked too much, he stopped asking, so as not to make her sad.

Xia Sihan became more and more curious when she heard this, but she still felt that if she didn't mention it for the time being, her mother would definitely say it.

If you ask rashly, it's not good to annoy her.

Xia Sihan saw him frowning, and snuggled tightly in his arms, "Brother Jin, we'll talk about my mother's affairs later, you're tired today, I'll boil water for you to bathe!" ”

Saying that, her face turned red, Li Jinyan looked at the flush on her face, and picked her up and sent her to the kitchen with a chuckle.
