Chapter 893: Overnight Departure
When the emperor heard him say this, he remembered Qin Jian.
It's not that the emperor doesn't pay attention to talents, it's just that there are too many things in the national capital, and Qin Jian didn't have any major events reported during his time in Jingzhou, so he didn't think about it.
"Okay, then let Qin Jian take someone on a trip, if this time the matter is done, his position will also be improved."
The emperor knew that Lu Baichuan and Qin Jian had a good relationship, the two had worked together for many years, and they had a high tacit understanding, so they still had to put the two of them together when they had the opportunity.
Originally, Qin Jian was placed in Jingzhou because there was no one under him, and during this time, Qin Jian had been cultivating capable people, which could also alleviate one or two.
"Thank you for Brother Qin, Your Majesty!"
Lu Baichuan was very happy, he had a lifelong friendship with Qin Jian, and naturally hoped that Qin Jian would keep up with his footsteps.
"Between you and me, why do you need to say thanks? It's just that this danger makes them more careful. ”
"Yes."
Lu Baichuan respectfully responded, and then went out of the palace to go home.
Lu Baichuan wanted to go to Jingzhou in person to explain some things to Qin Jian, and He Jiuniang didn't want them to get into trouble, so she said: "Take us for a trip together, just give them some medicine just in case." ”
The envoys are still in the national capital, and if they can't leave, they can't help from time to time, so they can only make more preparations.
"Okay, then I'll leave tonight, and I should be able to come back overnight."
Anyway, this matter was something he and the emperor said privately, no one would know the specific time, and no one would know if he went over overnight and came back.
He Jiuniang nodded, went to bed early after eating, and made up for sleep.
When everyone slept at night, the two of them quietly left, and they were not even alarmed by the porter.
When they arrived in Jingzhou, neither of them entered through the city gate, so the soldiers guarding the gate did not know that they had quietly visited.
Qin Jian was sleeping soundly, and suddenly he was slapped on the face, and as soon as the anger came up, he was about to fight when he opened his eyes, but he saw Lu Baichuan.
"Don't get excited, I have something serious to tell you."
Lu Baichuan was afraid that he would make a noise, and if more people knew that he had come, it would be a lot of trouble.
Although Qin Jian was full of doubts and puzzles, he still nodded when he saw Lu Baichuan's serious face.
Lu Baichuan briefly talked about King Jing's matter, and then explained: "You take people and go with the token of Huoyun Division, and when the time comes, you can mobilize the border army to save people together, but you can't be in a hurry, let's find out the matter first." If King Jing can be rescued unharmed, it will be regarded as a great achievement. ”
As he spoke, he took out a bunch of bottles and cans prepared by his daughter-in-law, and then explained: "My daughter-in-law gave it, you keep it just in case." ”
When Lu Baichuan said those words before, Qin Jian was still a little confused, and even doubted whether the real Lu Baichuan in front of him was, but when he saw these bottles and cans, he was sure that Lu Baichuan was really here to send a task to himself.
He took it and asked, "Since you are assigned a mission, why did you come here in the middle of the night?" I thought you had been replaced. ”
"The envoy is still in the capital, so I'll hurry up and tell you this, and I'll send you some things by the way. Things can't be delayed, and you will set off with people at dawn, the sooner the better. ”
If the daughter-in-law can take out those things openly, there is no need to be in such a hurry.
But you can't rely on everything else, you still have to do it in the most primitive way.
Qin Jian also realized the seriousness of the matter, and suddenly lost his mind to joke, and nodded solemnly and said, "I know, I will arrange it." ”
"Well, then I'll go back, and I'll contact you anytime if there's anything."
After speaking, Lu Baichuan turned around and left, and soon disappeared into the darkness.
If it weren't for those bottles and cans in his hands, Qin Jian would almost have wondered if he had a dream.
Thinking back to what Lu Baichuan said just now, Qin Jian couldn't sleep, got up to pack his things, and then called someone to come in and explain the matter, and then went to call all the brothers he was going to take with him, and explain them, so that they could pack up as soon as possible and set off in an hour.
It is still far from the border, and you have to go by water and land, so if you start early, the safety of King Jing can be guaranteed.
When Lu Baichuan and his family returned to the national capital, it was not yet dawn, but it was already time for the last dynasty, but He Jiuniang made the decision to ask for a leave.
Lu Baichuan drove back and forth, and he must have been very tired, and the two of them fell asleep when they came back, not paying attention to what was being discussed outside.
Sun and Old Man Lu just felt that they had a lot of things, and it was good to have a good rest for a day, so they told the children and subordinates in the family not to quarrel with them.
The prince of Dongting and the princess of Xiteng both sent people over to say that they wanted to visit, but they were all refused.
Old man Lu, Sun and a group of children all went out, Lu Baichuan and his family were sleeping, and there was no one at home who could make up their minds, so Yueshu made the decision and said that both of them occasionally felt cold and did not see guests, so they asked them to come back another day.
When the two of them got up in the afternoon, Yueshu hurriedly told the matter, and the reactions of the two of them were quite normal, as if they were expected.
He Jiuniang said: "Another day, if they send a prayer post again, they will accept it." ”
"Yes, ma'am."
After Yueshu retreated, He Jiuniang said: "The prince of Dongting is so anxious to see me, he should have recognized me, as for Princess Xiteng, she should have come to thank me, and she can be regarded as a life-saving benefactor." ”
Seriously, she seems to have saved the lives of both of them, right?
However, she received a lot of thank you gifts from the prince of Dongting, and she hasn't received it yet, so it depends on how much Princess Xiteng is willing to give.
"On the side of the Prince of Dongting, if you don't want to see it, I can come forward to solve it."
After all, He Jiuniang also has an identity as a lady in the house, and it is somewhat inappropriate for a foreign man of the prince of Dongting to want to see her.
"See, why not? He recognized me, and it was okay to hide all the time, anyway, he had no evidence, what could he do with me? ”
He Jiuniang's face was full of indifference, if she didn't see it, it would be easy to make things bigger, but when she saw it, she would have nothing to say.
Lu Baichuan couldn't do anything about her, he just thought that he would accompany her to see her when the time came, the prince of the Eastern Court was scheming, he didn't know what he was planning, and he couldn't let his daughter-in-law be deceived.
Dongting and Xiteng got the answer, and they were a little anxious, for fear that He Jiuniang would not want to see them.
Princess Xiteng also just knew that Dongting had also sent someone to the Lu family, and suspected that she was rejected because of Dongting.
"That Dongting is ambitious, and I don't want to talk about peace at this time, but I want to see He Jiuniang every day, what kind of heart is it?"
Kaya complained to Danton dissatisfied, and Danton couldn't guess Dongting's intentions, and said: "Maybe they want to get close to the Lu family, and they want to start with the Lu family and seek more benefits for themselves." ”
"That's a fool's dream!"
Kaya rolled her eyes, "Those two are like foxes, only when they are calculating others, how can they be calculated?" ”
