Chapter IX: Exemption from Guilt and Return

On the road from Chang'an to Jinzhou, Li Qinzai was so tired that he was about to die.

Walking, whether it is a stroll or a brisk walk, was a way of exercising that was respected by the world in his previous life, but Li Qinzai felt that this way was even more painful than Ling Chi.

It had only been half a day since he left Chang'an City, and the two officials had only escorted him for more than ten miles, and Li Qinzai felt that his legs no longer belonged to him.

It's sore and numb, and there may be blisters on my feet, and I feel pain in my heart after walking a few steps.

Looking back, the three of them didn't go far at all, and even the outline of Chang'an City was clearly visible. But Li Qinzai is like a dead fish out of water, rolling his eyes and hurting all over his body.

After walking one or two hundred steps, he fell to the ground and asked for a rest, which was at least half an hour, and only after the two officials asked for a thousand requests did he get up lazily and walk a few hundred steps leisurely......

"Buy three horses, can't we ride all the way to Lingnan? I asked for the money to buy horses, and when I got to Lingnan, I could also invite you to eat lychees and sleep with female monkeys. "Li Qinzai is as generous as a high roller.

The official's face was ugly, and it was about the fact that the field of sleeping female monkeys was too curious and psychologically difficult to accept.

"Wu Shaolang forgives the sin, this ...... Not really. ”

Another official also laughed: "Wu Shaolang, you have a lot, don't be embarrassed villain, the crime of 'exile', according to the law, must walk, if it is exposed by officials along the way, Wu Shaolang Shao must be impeached by the court officials, and the two of us will also be questioned." ”

Li Qinzai sighed, at this moment, he finally understood the feelings of the Tang monk in Journey to the West.

Obviously riding on the neck of a monkey can be done with a somersault cloud, Tang Seng actually rode a white dragon horse for 108,000 miles, which is simply the first honest monk in ancient times.

Now Li Qinzai understands, it's not that Tang Seng doesn't want to, but he is afraid that he will be discovered by the Bodhisattva in the sky cheating, so he struck down with a thunderbolt from the Nine Heavens, and the tenth golden cicada instantly became the tenth dead cicada, and the matter of learning scriptures can only be left to the eleventh generation.

Therefore, life is like a game, and it can be resurrected infinitely, but it is best not to bring a plug-in.

"If I really walked over on my feet, I might have died on the road before I got out of the customs, and the two of you could only take my body to Lingnan to find a feng shui treasure and bury it......"

"I don't know the place well, I want to invite my relatives and friends to dinner, but I don't have a chance, all because you don't let me buy a horse." Li Qinzai persuaded without giving up.

The official's face was ugly, but he still firmly refused.

Li Qinzai sighed, and through constant persuasion and temptation, he understood the bottom line of the two officials.

It seems that it is really not possible to buy a horse, in their eyes, the horse is their sister-in-law, they can't ride it, let alone outsiders.

Very loyal, respectful to the children of the powerful, but still able to stick to the principles.

Li Qinzai had to pretend that he was a moral person, and he was embarrassed to bribe them with silver cakes.

Looking up at the sky, it was already evening.

Li Qinzai was a little uneasy.

He didn't plan to really go to Lingnan at all, and after leaving Chang'an, he struggled all the way, just to wait for news, and a damn craftsman who seemed to have released his own pigeons.

It was getting late, and Li Qinzai was getting more and more uneasy.

If there is no good news from Chang'an City today, do you want to sleep in the wilderness tonight?

There are a lot of mosquitoes in the wild in summer, and there should be a lot of wild animals in this era, and there is no place to bathe with dust and sweat stains......

No matter how difficult the environment is, Li Qinzai's quality of life cannot be low, and a flower must be placed in the room surrounded by the four walls of the family, which is an attitude to live up to life.

"It's getting dark, I'm afraid I won't be able to walk today, so I decided to camp on the spot." Li Qinjae announced the decision in an unquestionable tone.

The two officials glanced at each other and responded with a bitter face.

Walking down this footpath, I am afraid that most of my life has passed when I go to Lingnan, and when I am dying, my children and grandchildren ask me what I have done in this life, how do I answer?

I sent a prisoner to Lingnan, and a lifetime has passed, huh~~

Li Qinzai sat cross-legged on the spot and naturally began to assign tasks.

"You, go hunting in the neighborhood and get some game. You, go collect firewood, build a tent, boil some hot water, and I'll soak my feet first. ”

The two officials sighed, did not dare to resist, and acted honestly according to Li Qinzai's orders.

As soon as they moved, the three of them simultaneously heard the faint sound of horses' hooves in the distance.

The two officials looked at each other inexplicably, but Li Qinzai's heartbeat involuntarily accelerated.

The sound of horses' hooves came from far and near, and soon appeared in the sight of the three people.

Immediately, a knight dressed in iron armor and dressed as a forbidden army came at a gallop, and saw Li Qinzai and the three people in front of him while galloping, and then looked at their clothes, the knight was overjoyed and immediately reined in his horse.

"In front of you, is it in front of Li Qinzai, the grandson of the British noble?" The knight asked aloud.

Li Qinzai smiled, stood up and dusted off his clothes: "Exactly." ”

The knight said loudly: "By order, Li Qinzai will be exempted from his crimes, and he can be ordered to return to Beijing!" ”

Li Qinzai's expression was calm, and he didn't seem surprised by this sudden news.

The two officials were shocked, and the two were stunned for a long time, and then they were overjoyed.

Traveling thousands of miles is not the same torture for the escort officials? At this time, he was released as soon as he left Chang'an City, and the official errand was naturally exempted from a hard work.

"Congratulations to the fifth young man!" The official was busy bowing to Li Qinzai and congratulating.

Li Qinzai stretched his waist and said leisurely: "I announce that today's half-day tour of the Beijing suburbs of Chang'an has been successfully concluded, go home!" ”

…………

It was quick to return to Chang'an City from the outskirts of Beijing.

Li Qinzai was killed and did not want to walk again, so he discussed with the knight who passed the decree for a long time, and finally stuffed the copper coin into the knight's arms, and the knight pulled Li Qinzai on the horse with a helpless face.

A horse carrying two people hurried back to Chang'an City, and it was just dark when they entered the city.

As for the two hard-working officials, Li Qinzai can't take care of them, so let's go back to the city by myself.

In the British Mansion, the servants were carrying two dim lanterns with a long pole and hanging them under the eaves of the main entrance.

When night fell, when the lamp was in hand, outside the dimly lit Guogong Mansion, a slightly lonely figure stood outside the open space not far away, staring at the plaque with gold letters on a black background on the lintel of the Guogong Mansion.

The figure is independent, blending into the light and shadow of dusk and darkness, unique but seemingly out of place in this world.

The team on duty outside the house tonight is still Liu Asi.

Someone outside the mansion stood still for a long time, which attracted Liu Asi's attention, and after careful inspection, he found that the figure was a little familiar.

After looking at it again and again, Liu Ah Si suddenly blurted out in surprise: "The fifth young man has returned home!" ”

The subordinates looked at each other, and then someone immediately ran into the house to report that Liu Ah Si and a group of subordinates surrounded them.

"Fifth young man, you ......" Liu Asi wanted to speak and stopped.

The will to release Li Qinzai was sent from the palace to the suburbs of Beijing, and the Huiguo Mansion was not known, and the whole government did not know that Li Qinzai had been exonerated from the crime.

Li Qinzai smiled: "Ah Si, tell the family, I'm back, let the housekeeper pick a pleasing maid, I want to have a little health care." ”
