Rolling the fallen leaves on the official road, bringing up the dust, and raising it for a long time, the sun.

The sky was gray.

Out of the border of Shaanxi, on the official road leading to the capital, more than a dozen fast horses hugged two warm cars surrounded by blue nicknames, and drove slowly for a while. Minnard looked at the sky, ordered his men to go ahead and explore the way, and after preparing for the noonday rest, he turned his horse's head and came to the second carriage.

He opened the curtain of the car, looked at He Tuhua, who was still asleep, and sighed. He wanted to complain in his heart that the young master sacrificed his life to save Mr. Beihe and meddled in his affairs. But thinking that Master Chen was in the ditch this month, and the young master who was injured with food and felt was so thin that he was out of shape, and his frostbite was not light, so he finally kept the young master and waited for them, but he was speechless.

In the end, they are not mutually reinforcing.

The noon sun drove away the cold of autumn, and the slave who explored the road led everyone into a town of only three or four streets, although there were not many pedestrians on the street, but the fragrance of Shaanxi sheep steamed buns wafted all over the street.

Minnard instructed his subordinates to charter a small shop that barely got into the eye, urging the store to prepare clean meals.

He waited for the imperial doctor who came from the capital to get out of the carriage, and hurriedly asked with a smile: "Lang Feng, my young master hasn't woken up yet." Does it matter? ”

The snow-white old imperial doctor, who was already enshrined in the inner court of the fourth grade, said with a wry smile: "Ming Steward, Lord He will wake up in three days at most, but he is seriously injured and has lost his vitality, and I am afraid that it will take three or four years to recover." ”

bright

Lang confessed: "It's a blessing to have a life to come back." Although Lord Chen was fine, his feet were injured. In order to save Lord He, he was frozen again. In the future, the old cold leg problem will not be cured. "Between words. Arched his hand. "The old man still has to write excerpts. Explain to the emperor the condition of the two adults. "Say it. Turned around and went.

Minnard looked at the back of Lang's worship. Wiped away old tears. beckoned to take it, and the next person sent the hot sheep steamed bun and the three-course food box. Walk to the carriage of the North River Headquarters.

As soon as the leather curtain was opened, the strong smell of medicine came into the nose.

The carriage was padded with a thick layer of gray felt. A small wooden table fixed with a subway is inlaid with a copper candlestick. Chen Yan was half-lying in the carriage. The lower body is covered with bearskin color, because it has not seen the light of day for too long. Extraordinarily pale "Ming housekeeper." Can you wake up? ”

Minnard climbed into the car. Place the food on a small ironwood table. Respectfully said: "Lord Chen is worried. My young master hasn't woken up yet. Lord Lang said that it was only these days. "After a pause, I remembered something." Lord Chen's family has already sent someone to the capital. ”

Chen Yan had long known that this Niu Lu family was the governor of the land for many years. Thinking of He Tuhua's sacrifice of his life, he is still not awake. Although my heart was heavy, I heard Minnard talk about the family letter. And he was reassured.

The leather curtain was lowered, and Chen Yan opened the food box, which contained some home-cooked dishes - red pepper pork head meat, chicken porridge, and garlic white meat. Chen Yan only felt that his eyes were hot, Su Niang was frightened in the capital? How did she survive this month? He touched his legs that were a little numb, he couldn't recover slowly like He Tuhua, Brother Qi Qiang died, and Su Niang would have to rely on him in the future.

Minnard took care of He Tuhua every day, watched the folds enshrined by Lang be handed back one by one for three days, and watched the imperial doctor who was sent to treat leg injuries in the capital come over, and watched that after entering the Shanxi territory, Beihe always struggled to walk on the ground. Minnard took even more thoughtful care of Beihe River.

After he watched Bei He He always walk, he was helped to visit He Tuhua every day, and said a few words with He Tuhua who had just woken up.

"Sir......" He Tuhua was still wrapped in a thick white cloth on his head and covered with a thick brocade quilt on his body. He opened his eyes slightly, looking at Chen Yan and wanted to say something, but he didn't even have the strength to open his mouth.

Chen Yan was helped by Minnard to sit next to He Tuhua, he stared at He Tuhua, "Take care of your injuries, and when you are well, I will take you to patrol the river." ”

He Tuhua fell asleep again. Chen Yan stretched out his hand and pressed the quilt for him, and sighed softly, "It will take three or four years to ......."

The emperor urged to return to Beijing as soon as possible, and the people sent by the Niu Lu family from the capital to greet him also came twice, and Minnard hurried all the way.

A group of people who returned to Beijing from injuries in the source exploration group have not yet arrived in Tongzhou, and Minnard and his party have already left Taiyuan City, Shanxi, and they are only a few hundred miles away from Tongzhou. Minnard was urging his subordinates to hurry up, when he suddenly heard the sound of horses' hooves on the official road from far and near, and it seemed that many people and horses were galloping from the direction of the capital.

Minnard saw nearly 100 fast horses coming from the opposite side, he squinted, and when he got closer, he recognized that the first person was Master Zhou in the Beihe River General Mansion, and the two little men and the personal soldiers in the Beihe River General Mansion were behind.

On the small table in the carriage, there was a kettle and two hot teas, and a small candle was lit on the fixed copper candlestick, which shook half-brightly and half-darkly, illuminating the words on the letterhead

Trace. Chen Yan read the letter written by Qi Su Niang, and asked about the injury every word, and replied, although she was happy in her heart, she knew that she had concealed it and did not say anything. He sighed, looked up and asked, "Mr. Zhou, is Madam in Chafu now?" You tell me the details of what is going on in the capital. ”

Zhou Xiangtian pondered and slowly finished talking about the past six months, Chen Yan closed his eyes and pondered, and was speechless for a long time.

Outside the carriage, there was the sound of horses' hooves, and the wheels of the car made a squeaking and turbidity sound, and on the other hand, they ran over the gravel, and the candlelight on the brass candlestick also swayed, illuminating Chen Yan's face flickering.

Zhou Xiangtian looked at Chen Yan's face and said softly: "My lord, Master Su is dead, and Lord He Tuhua is seriously injured. Lord Li Zhizhi couldn't control the river pacesetters, and thought that at this time, the emperor would have to reuse the adults. Adults need to be aware of the Divine Will. ”

Chen Yan slowly opened his eyes, "What Mr. said is extremely true. He thanked him and said, "Mr. Duo Chengzhou spoke in front of the thirteenth master and worked for me." ”

Zhou Xiangtian hurriedly replied: "The statue of the adult Jiren is in the blue eyes of the adult, and he dares not to serve with the affection of his flesh and blood." It's just a lowly position, and he can't take care of the adult's family. ”

Chen Yan shook his head and smiled slightly, "Sheng, after I resign, would you like to return to my hometown and live next to me, and watch the sunrise and sunset of the Qianli Cao River?" ”

Zhou Xiangtian smiled, "I don't dare to ask for it." He picked up a cup of hot tea and presented it to Chen Yan, "It's just that the adults are worried a lot now-the third master of Qi, the gentlemen in the capital, and the lady-" He glanced at Chen Yan and said slowly: "The prince's subordinates often gather to drink, except for Qi Shiwu, the secretary of the military department, the rest are all the people who lead the troops." But if you want to be convicted, you are afraid that you will not be able to find solid evidence-" Zhou Xiangtian paused, "Everyone in the capital is staring, I am afraid that something big will happen." When the lord returns to Beijing, the emperor must summon him, so it is better to endure for a while-"

Chen Yan didn't hear it, and only looked at Zhongqi Su Niang's letter-"I'm all right in the capital, just wait for you to come back as soon as possible-" Chen Yan slowly folded the letter, looked up and said to Zhou Xiangtian: "Mr. Zhou, Xiaolian and Mr. Zhao also came with you?" ”

"Yes, I was injured first and stopped all the way back to the capital, and before I arrived in Tongzhou, I was out of Beijing. Most of their injuries were healed, and they were about to turn back to greet me when they heard the news that they were well. So I brought them here. ”

"Quietly Xiaolian went to Tianjin City and invited Master Li Zhizhi to Tongzhou for a meeting."

In the capital, because autumn is coming, the palace maids and eunuchs are busy, and the nobles are ready to move back to the Forbidden City from Changchun Garden. In the Jing'an Garden on the edge of Changchun Garden, the tenth elder brother sat in the stone pavilion, "Chen Bianzhi is not dead!" Even the kid from the Niu Lu family was found with a sigh of relief! His grandmother made Lao Tzubai happy. ”

Brother Jiu slowly walked up the stone steps and said with a smile: "What do you like?" You don't have a servant who can be the governor of the river, is it possible that you are still counting on the millions of furniture of the Qi family? ”

The tenth elder brother snorted, "If she weren't for the baby slave of the old fourteenth, such a cheap entry into the Xiang Ye would have been in hand a long time ago, and she still needs to be like the queen mother picking her son-in-law, waiting for her to pick the masters?" He glared at the fourteenth elder brother with a smile on his face, "Look at your stupid music, can you be so happy?" The fat to the mouth is flying! ”

The fourteenth elder brother leaned against the pillar of the pavilion and laughed, "I'm relieved." Her temper is not a woman in my house, I look at it rarely, and I can bear it every once in a while. If you accept her as an outer room, and see her again in ten days and half a month, I am afraid that sooner or later I can't help but whip her to death. ”

The tenth elder brother and the ninth elder brother both laughed, and the ninth elder brother smiled: "It turns out that you also understand this principle, but my brother underestimates you." Look at you and hold her as a baby in the future! ”

The fourteenth elder brother glared and said, "Isn't this still outside?" Since you haven't got it, it's rare! ”

The ninth elder brother and the tenth elder brother scolded him with a smile, and the eighth elder brother, who had been speechless for a long time, slowly opened his mouth, "As soon as Li Mingzhi of Tongyongdao heard that Chen Bianzhi was found by the people of the Niu Lu family and sent to the capital, he left Tianjin and waited for him in Tongzhou.

”

Brother Jiu was stunned, "He Tuhua's kid only has one breath left, and it's not sure whether he is dead or alive." Chen Bianzhi also hid in the ice cave for seven or eight days, just a few more breaths than him, and Li Mingzhi hurried to say something to him. ”

The fourteenth elder brother's brows furrowed, "Although Li Mingzhi is not familiar with river politics, he only needs to tell Chen Bianzhi about river politics, Chen Bianzhi is a good person——"

The eighth elder brother glanced at the fourteenth elder brother and smiled slightly, "That's right, I heard that Li Mingzhi returned to Tianjin from Tongzhou, and he began to investigate the river and trace the sea silver. "Eighth Elder Brother stood up," Li Mingzhi has eyes, seeing that He Tuhua is sick, Na Dingsu is dead, after Chen Bianzhi comes back, the official position remains the same, and the emperor also gave him a special gift to go to Xiaotangshan to recuperate from his injuries, so he understands the matter on the northern river, and now Chen Bianzhi has the final say.
