Chapter 223: Automatically Find the Door

Not to mention Long Tingxiao, even Zhang Mengjie herself couldn't figure out how to get justice for Chen Xiaobao's mother and son. So at this time, she could only laugh and say nothing.

Just as Long Tingxiao wanted to ask again, a soldier from the Royal Forest Army came to report, and Xing Jishan took the person they were looking for to ask for a meeting outside the post gate.

Long Tingxiao and Zhang Mengjie glanced at each other, this speed is too fast, right? A hint of doubt flashed in the eyes of the same two.

"Let Master Xing bring people to the lobby to meet, and by the way, let General Zhao also go to the lobby." Even if they want to find someone, even if they have doubts, they can't turn them away when they bring them to the door, right?

"Yes!" The soldier took the order and went out.

In the lobby, Xing Jishan led an old man, a woman, and a pair of teenage children stood respectfully.

The old man was fifty or sixty years old, and his clothes were a little shabby, but they were very neat and clean. Although his face was a little haggard, it could be seen that he should not have suffered much in normal times.

The woman was dark-skinned, and she couldn't tell how old she was. However, from the fine wrinkles on her face and the calluses on her hands, it can be seen that she is a woman who can endure hardship.

The two children, a boy and a girl, should be a pair of dragons and phoenixes from the perspective of similar faces and ages. It may be the nature of children, and the two of them are not like the old man and the woman, and their eyes are looking around curiously.

As soon as Long Tingxiao, Zhang Mengjie, and Zhao Ziheng walked into the lobby, Xing Jishan bent down and said, "Jishan has seen two adults, madam!"

The old man, the woman, and the two children immediately knelt down. Of course, the two children were pulled by them to kneel down together.

"Master Torture is exempt!" After the three of them sat down, Long Tingxiao said to Xingji Mountain. But his eyes were on the kneeling people.

"Thank you, Your Excellency!" Xing Jishan only stood up after thanking him.

"Them?" Long Tingxiao deliberately stretched his voice very long.

"They came to the door by themselves, and the officials met them as soon as they left the palace, and they happened to be looking for Mazhi County, so Jishan brought them to meet the envoys." Xing Jishan explained.

"So you haven't told them that the envoy is looking for them?" Long Tingxiao said.

"Nope." Xingji Mountain replied.

"Who is kneeling?" Long Tingxiao turned his eyes to look at the kneeling four.

"Grass man Ma Fuan, daughter-in-law Wang, grandson Ma Xiaohu and granddaughter Ma Xiaoyu, have seen two adults and a lady!" The old man introduced in an orderly manner, which shows that he is also a person who has seen the world.

"You are the father, wife and children of Mazhi County, Mincheng?" Long Tingxiao said.

"Yes." The old man said without hesitation.

"I've been with Ma Zhixian for almost two months, and I haven't heard him mention that there are still wives and children at home?" Long Tingxiao said.

"Of course, this brute can't be the wife of the Wang family. All these years have ignored us. He probably didn't even know he had these children! The old man became a little agitated at the mention of the woman and the child.

"You're here to find Mazhi County?" Long Tingxiao said.

"Yes." At the mention of Ma Yuhu, the old man's mood immediately became low.

"Why are you looking for him?"

Faced with Long Tingxiao's question, the old man hesitated a little and did not answer.

"And do you know who we are?" Long Tingxiao continued to ask.

"I just heard from Master Torture that you are an envoy." The old man replied.

"Do you know we're looking for you?" Long Tingxiao didn't care, and the old man didn't mention Zhang Mengjie and Zhao Ziheng.

"The grass people don't know." Obviously it was just a simple question, but the old man always felt a little chill down his spine, and unconsciously his voice changed a little.

"What do you think of Ma Zhixian's character?" Long Tingxiao said.

"Child. Pediatric ......"

"Gollum. Gollum! Just when the old man didn't know how to answer Long Tingxiao, there were some voices that didn't agree.

"Grandpa. Mother, Yu'er and Hu'er are hungry. A weak little boy's voice appeared in everyone's ears.

"Master, when you're full, your thinking is clear, don't you say?" When Zhang Mengjie saw these four people, she was very sure that these people must be related to Ma Yuhu. I'm also sure that the old man is not lying.

What surprised Zhang Mengjie was that a person like Ma Yuhu, who didn't know the suffering of the people, would have such a simple family.

"Someone!" Long Tingxiao shouted to the people outside.

"What do you command?" Soon the guards came in.

"Let the kitchen prepare some food." Long Tingxiao said.

"Yes!" The Imperial Guards quickly retreated.

"Let's get up and sit down!" Long Tingxiao said to the kneeling few.

The old man and the woman glanced at each other, and after the old man hesitated and nodded, the woman helped the old man to stand up but did not dare to sit down.

"Master, let's go to the dining hall first, right? You can't eat here later, can you? Zhang Mengjie proposed. In order not to put pressure on the old man, Zhang Mengjie did not say anything about eating.

The lobby is a place for deliberations, and it is indeed a little inappropriate to eat here, Long Tingxiao got up and took the lead and walked out without objection.

"Master Torture, let's go together!" Before leaving, Zhang Mengjie said to Xingji Mountain.

Let Xingjishan be together because the person was brought by Xingjishan, and the old man's family will not be so restrained with him. Xing Jishan also understood this reason, and he should come down.

The people who entertained at the inn were always people of prominent status, and it didn't take long for a few dishes to come up.

Ma Xiaohu and Ma Xiaoyu, who were already very hungry, looked at the fragrant dishes on the table and drooled, but they looked at Ma Fuan and Wang carefully, and cautiously watched the others sitting there in an orderly manner.

It wasn't until the cook brought millet porridge that Zhang Mengjie gave Ma Xiaohu and Ma Xiaoyu a bowl each, and said, "Eat!"

When Zhang Mengjie handed the good millet porridge to the old man, the old man was surprised and didn't accept it.

Zhang Mengjie smiled: "It's okay for you to be hungry for a few days, but what about them?"

The old man looked at Ma Xiaohu and Ma Xiaoyu, and took the millet porridge in Zhang Mengjie's hand with well-behaved and eager eyes.

Zhang Mengjie served another bowl for the woman, the corners of the woman's eyes who had never received such hospitality from others were a little moist, and the hand that took the bowl was a little trembling, Zhang Mengjie shook her rough hand to show comfort. Then he gave Long Tingxiao, Zhao Ziheng, Xing Jishan and himself a bowl each.

Long Tingxiao didn't say too much, took the bowl and ate it, because of the habit he developed in Ligu Town, Xingji Mountain at this time was not burdened at all.

The old man and the woman ate very restrainedly, but Ma Xiaohu and Ma Xiaoyu ate happily, looking at the only plate of braised pork on the table, their eyes were shining, but they didn't dare to clip it.

All this did not escape Zhang Mengjie's eyes, and a large piece of lean meat was selected for each of them and put in their bowls.

Ma Xiaohu and Ma Xiaoyu both looked at the meat in Ma Xiaoyu's bowl and didn't eat it, Zhang Mengjie thought they were dissatisfied, but she picked a similar size? When I was confused, I suddenly realized when I heard Ma Xiaohu's words. (To be continued.) )
