Under the close gaze of all parties, Li Jicai finally returned to the capital under Xi Zien's "care".

It's been a long time.

Li Jicai, who was standing at the gate of Yingdu City, had a feeling of being in a different world, it had been too long, and he couldn't remember the details of his life here, only the broken afterimage occasionally flashed in his mind.

Xi Zien arranged two very stout and powerful maids, and now they are holding Li Jicai on the left and right, looking like Le Xiaoji.

Although Li Jicai protested, it couldn't play any role, and he was afraid that she would have an accident, after all, Li Jicai is a hero now.

In the more than a month since Li Jicai disappeared, the heat of things in Liangzhou has dropped down, and there is a lot less attention to her, but Li Jicai, who was found again, once again caused ripples in the court.

When everyone recalled, this woman infiltrated the mountain forest bandit village alone, and then turned the tide of the tide, ambushed the locust plague, quelled the trouble, and let the people settle down.

is indeed meritorious, and logically speaking, Li Jicai, as a civilian woman, has done such an outstanding thing, and she deserves to be rewarded.

And Li Jicai himself has been looking forward to this day.

However, when they passed through the censorship at the city gate and entered the spacious and bright streets, the flow of people was weaving, bustling, all kinds of shouting, laughing and scolding, Li Jicai didn't have time to take a closer look, but not far away, saw a familiar figure.

That's not, isn't that jasper and biluo?! Why are the two of them here? Know the news of her return? So timely?

Li Jicai didn't know, but the civil and military of the Manchu Dynasty knew about it, after all, he was disappeared and taken captive. Some ministers even sent people to secretly come to the city gate to guard, just to see what this Li Jicai looked like.

At this time, Biyu and Biluo were standing next to a carriage that looked spacious and luxurious, anxiously looking in the direction of the city gate, and when they saw Li Jicai, their eyes lit up, and they lifted their skirts and walked over to Li Jicai.

"Miss!" Bilo's voice was slightly louder, drowning out Jasper's voice.

Xi Zien, who rode a horse and rode all the way, was also tired, so he simply came down to accompany Li Jicai for a walk. When he saw two women and a bunch of guards coming, he chuckled in his heart and became a little vigilant.

"Why are you here?" Li Jicai has not fully recovered, her face is sallow, her thin body is not full, and the whole person looks a little depressed, plus the two strong girls around her are dragging her left and right, holding her up, as if she has been hijacked.

Originally, there were enough strange looks received on the road, and seeing the worried eyes of Biyu and Biluo, Li Jicai smiled helplessly.

"The master sent me to pick up the young lady and take her home." Who else can this owner be, it must be Jiang Xihu.

"You see that it's really not convenient for me now, I'm going to follow Master Xi back to make an errand, and when the matter is done, it's not too late for you to come." Li Jicai raised his eyebrows calmly and said, the rules still can't be broken. It's just that Jiang Xihu said in such a hurry, but it was really interesting. It seems that he is still quite important to him, otherwise he would not be so nervous to send Jasper and Biluo over.

Xi Zien felt a sense of relief in his heart when he heard it, Li Jicai didn't see it, he was still sensible.

He didn't expect the fourth prince, Jiang Xihu, to be in such a hurry.

Biyu and Biluo glanced at each other, the two of them were personally explained by the master when they were about to go out, and the master said the same, and did not expect to be able to bring Li Jicai back immediately, but if Li Jicai came out, she still had to bring it back, just to let Li Jicai know where she should go back.

"Yes, miss." Biluo and Biyu answered at the same time, and then reluctantly retreated. No longer blocking Li Jicai's way forward.

Xi Zien just stared coldly from beginning to end, and didn't pay too much attention to it, revealing his emotions.

After all, when he was in the court, he didn't like the fourth prince very much, and sometimes he didn't deal with it very well.

After being slightly delayed by Jiang Xihu's people, the team set off again.

A long line of people still aroused the curiosity of many people, and the eyes of the scrutiny lingered on their bodies, especially Li Jicai, who was carried like a prisoner, and it couldn't be more uncomfortable.

Decent! She also needs to be decent!

If she was seen by an acquaintance, those who didn't know would think that she had committed some serious crime and was escorted back to Beijing.

It's a pity that Xi Zien didn't see Li Jicai's slightly aggrieved eyes throughout the whole process, and he was in a very happy mood. After all, there are very few dignified patrols like this, so let him enjoy it for the time being.

They entered from the gate of the south city, and Li Jicai could still remember some places they passed by, but there were many places that she couldn't remember very well.

The road was very long, and Li Jicai and Xi Zien walked silently for a long time, each thinking about their own thoughts, but Li Jicai suddenly thought of one thing, as if she had forgotten it before. It's been so long now, I don't know ......

Thinking about Li Jicai, he asked: "Qi Qing got married for the first time?" The abrupt sentence shocked the Xi Zien next to him, who was full of ambition and looked at the people.

Xi Zien replied inexplicably: "Huh? ”

This time it was Li Jicai's turn to be suspicious, who told her before, why did she seem to remember that Qi Qingchu was going to get married

。 It's been so long now, who knows whether she got married or not, and no one told her.

"No, no. It was just rumors that were spread by people before, and he didn't even have a sweetheart, so how could he get married? ”

After a pause, how did Xi Zien think and how did she feel strange, how could she be so well-informed in such a remote place? Even the rumors that spread before are known.

"You still care so much about Qi Qingchu? Otherwise, why do you pay so much attention to him and even know the news? ”

The speaker has no intention, but the listener has the intention.

"No, I'm just curious, just ask, after all, Qi Qingchu's marriage should also be the attention of the whole city."

"That's right, many other women's women want to marry him, so he bites to death and doesn't let go."

"Oh!" Li Jicai replied randomly, but in fact, the center of his heart was like numbness.

"Since it's all about this, Li Jicai, you and I might as well find a place to have a good drink, how about chatting? I almost thought we were separated forever. Xi Zien himself thought it was funny.

Unless they came to look for her this time, the last time they saw each other would have been before the fire.

It was also the fire that seemed to isolate her from their lives.

"Since Lord Xi has this interest, then I am also happy to accompany him. Please? Although Li Jicai was grabbed by two strong girls like a chicken, it did not prevent her from moving one of her mouths.

"Good! Just go, say where do you want to go? ”

As soon as Xi Zien heard Li Jicai's cooperative appearance, he also strengthened his thoughts, and it just so happened that he also wanted to ask Li Jicai about it and see what happened to her.

"Feel free, as long as there is meat and wine, you can do it anywhere." Li Jicai knew that Xi Zien Xi Zien didn't like to twist and pinch and be vague. So just follow his words.

"Well, then you and I will go on an errand first, and I'll take you to drink after the errand!"

Maybe it's because he returned to the capital and awakened Xi Zien's memory, so he couldn't help but treat Li Jicai's attitude a lot better, and he was no longer as stiff as when he was outside.

Li Jicai wanted to shrug her shoulders to show her attitude, but her current skeleton was not her own, and it was very awkward.

Because of the particularity of Li Jicai's identity, to be reasonable, after Xi Zien took her to her life, Li Jicai should stay in the corresponding place honestly and not move around at will. But because of Xi Zien's blessing, Li Jicai can go out and join him.

Xi Zien didn't take him to any big restaurant, but found a place called Qingfeng Lou at random, this restaurant looks quite clean outside, and there is a separate private room upstairs, so no one will disturb him.

went to the government for a walk, Xi Zien and Li Jicai each completed the things to be handled according to the regulations, and then went to wash and bathe, and then changed into clean and comfortable clothes, and took care of their hair carefully and neatly.

Then the two of them left the palace together, with only a few guards behind them.

The capital is much safer than the rest of the city, and the troublemakers on the streets can be quickly suppressed.

With so many pairs of eyes staring at it, who would dare to act rashly?

The juniors of Qingfeng Lou saw the appearance of two distinguished guests, a man dressed in a blue brocade robe with cloud patterns, very noble in his gestures, fluttering clothes, very chic, and quite an extraordinary appearance.

And the woman who walked with him was a little inferior, her face was sallow, she didn't look energetic, only a pair of eyes were very aura, and the aqua green robe on her body was wide and a little fat, not very fit.

It's quite sweet to smile on.

Of course, they also knew that the identities of these two were extraordinary, and they couldn't just look at them, so they hurriedly greeted the distinguished guests to the second floor.

"A plate of beef, a plate of peanuts, tofu side dishes, and any other signature dishes, you can watch and order." Li Jicai can read out what she wants with her eyes closed, and these things are necessary in every restaurant.

Xi Zien looked around the room, waved at the few guards he had brought, and motioned for them to go outside and not let outsiders pass by casually, so that people could overhear what they were saying.

The decoration of the room is very simple, plum blossom ornaments can be seen everywhere, plum vase, plum blossom diagram, plum blossom pane. It seems that it is a room with a plum blossom theme, and the style is very elegant.

But this is dwarfed by his own hardships, Xi Zien likes it, the flower inserted in the plum vase, slender and fresh, but it is not a plum blossom, but another flower, this season, the plum blossom has not yet opened.
