Next.

Originally, they planned to leave early in the morning, but Wang Shou and Yan Zhong drank a lot, and they didn't wake up until three o'clock in the morning, and their heads were going to explode when they got up.

As a result, they had to push their trip to noon.

Both of them were ashamed: "Sister-in-law, I'm really sorry, I haven't drunk that much for a long time, and I can't control it for a while." ”

Lin Xigang and Shen Chen wrote the letter and sent it away, so that Chen Fuzi and Li Fuzi knew the news of their return.

Hearing this, Lin Xi cried and laughed: "It's nothing to indulge a few times once in a while. ”

Yan Zhong asked cautiously; "Then we didn't make any jokes, did we?"

Wang Shoudeng said: "You must have made trouble, I didn't." ”

Yan Zhong was not convinced, "Please, everyone knows that your wine is not good, right?" ”

Wang Shou said proudly: "At most, I drank too much and found someone to fight, but the people in the house are fine, and I will be honest when I see it." You say yes, no? ”

He called Du Bufu, who brought the decanting soup.

Du couldn't help but keep a straight face, ignored it, handed them the decanting soup, and then went back to the kitchen to prepare to decoct Qian Renjie.

This made Wang Shou chuckle in his heart: "Didn't I beat others?" Can't help it? Looking at ...... I can't help but feel like my head is a little bigger than last year. ”

Lin Xi said slowly: "Then I don't know, I'll chat with your Brother Shen at that time." ”

Yan Zhong waved his hand, "I don't know anymore, I just remember that I seemed to see two big brothers Qian." ”

Wang Shou directly drank the decanting soup, and then chased after Du.

By noon, after lunch, Lin Xi and Shen Chen were leaving.

Qian Renjie was very reluctant and wanted to send them to the door, but he couldn't move, so he had to ask the housekeeper to send them out.

"Brother Shen, when I get better, I will definitely go to Ruyang to see you first."

Shen Chen patted him on the shoulder, "In the future, I will be an official in Jinling." ”

Qian Renjie felt something, nodded solemnly; "I understand, what to do, I won't be left behind."

Shen Chen withdrew his hand and left with Lin Xi, the carriage was already waiting outside the mansion.

Lin Xi saw that there were three carriages, and he was a little dumbfounded: "This ...... Don't you all ride horses? Three ...... Much, right? ”

Yan Zhong said: "One is for your sister-in-law to sit on, and the other two are for you to sit in, and the other two are the gifts that Brother Shen picked for you and the children when you were in the isolation camp." Oh, and thank-you gifts for everyone else. ”

When Lin Xi heard this, he didn't ask any more, and was helped by Shen Chen to get into the carriage and set off.

However, when he arrived at the city gate, Lin Xi felt that the carriage had stopped again.

She opened the curtain and found that it was Song Lingjun who came to see them off.

"County Lieutenant Song, aren't you in the quarantine camp?"

Song Lingjun saw Lin Xi and explained; "I don't need to handle the trivial matters of the quarantine camp anymore, and I came out to assist Governor Li in doing things. I know that you are leaving today, and I have come to give you a ride. ”

After saying that, looking at Shen Chen, Song Lingjun's expression was a little inexplicable, and he was a little emotional.

He bowed to Shen Chen: "Brother Shen, thank you for teaching Song during this time." ”

Shen Chen turned sideways slightly, avoiding Song Lingjun's etiquette.

He said lightly: "It's just a gesture." ”

Song Lingjun asked, "Then I don't know when I can see Brother Shen again?" ”

Shen Chen looked at him and said meaningfully: "It depends on how you choose." ”

Song Lingjun was thoughtful, and finally saluted Shen Chen, and said with a straight face: "Brother Xie Shen mentioned something." No matter what happened in the past and in the future, in Song's eyes, Brother Shen will always be Brother Shen and will not change. Song will also do what he should do, not just a few words for others, just for the word justice. ”

Shen Chen hummed and looked back at the carriage, "Let's go." ”

Lin Xi lowered the curtain of the car.

Yan Zhong and the three of them glanced at each other and followed on horseback.

Song Lingjun stepped aside and watched the group drift away.

The people who follow him are the people he has screened out to be confidants during this period of time, and they will also go north with him to take up his post.

The relationship is closer, and it is natural to be able to say something. The henchman asked puzzledly: "My lord, what did you just say, but what are you going to do?" ”

Song Lingjun's eyes were deep, and he said, "Yes." ”

"But...... What else is worth making up your mind about this Jinling matter? The henchman was even more confused.

Song Lingjun turned around, walked along the empty street of Shangxian towards the Yamen, and said calmly: "It's not Jinling, it's the north where this official is going." ”

"The sage said, a gentleman has something to do, and he doesn't do something. I didn't understand the meaning of these words before, but now I do. ”

"Since I chose to believe in Brother Shen, I should do something to help Brother Shen."

"Not for the individual, but for justice."

……

The other side.

After leaving Jinling, Lin Xi and his party took the official road, so they didn't have to worry about robbing the road.

Naturally, Lin Xi felt that there should be no bandits who would come to intercept them without a long eye.

The carriage swayed, making Lin Xi unable to concentrate, she put down the book in her hand, and couldn't help but think about what Song Lingjun said before leaving.

Shen Chen and Song Lingjun seem to have reached some kind of deal.

Ask when you take a break.

In the evening, they stayed at a post house.

After dinner, Yan Zhong went to feed the horses, Du Bu couldn't help but ignore Wang Shou, told Wang Shou to be a little anxious, and followed Du Bu step by step, and soon Lin Xi and Shen Chen were still sitting in the lobby on the first floor.

Lin Xi took this opportunity to ask, "Shen Chen, what did Song Lingjun mean by what he said to you at the end?" What is he going to do? ”

Shen Chen poured a cup of hot water for Lin Xi and said; "After he decided to go north to take up his post, he worked seriously."

"It's as simple as that?" Lin Xi didn't believe it.

Shen Chen sighed, "Maybe you might check something, right?" ”

Lin Xi asked, "What to check?" Does it have anything to do with you? ”

Shen Chen nodded: "Yes." ”

Lin Xi thought about it, and was a little surprised, "The place where Song Lingjun went to work is north of Yanmen Pass, is it possible...... Is it the case of Cha Yanmen Pass? He knows your identity?? ”

Shen Chen didn't seem to be surprised, took a sip of water, and said, "He doesn't know, but he has already guessed." In this Jinling incident, he made great contributions, but there was no reward, just a transfer, and there were two possibilities. First, sharpen him and pave the way for him to be transferred to a more important place; Second, there is a need for something else. He did it secretly. ”

After a pause, Shen Chen said: "Song Lingjun is smart, and from Yi Hong's attitude towards me this time, he has already understood that I have a special identity. It's just that it's inconvenient to say, it's just tacit. Also, do you know where he served when he was in Beijing? ”

Lin Xi was puzzled: "Wasn't he directly sent to be the county lieutenant of Pei County?" ”

Shen Chen shook his head: "He has been in Beijing for a while. At that time, he had done some idle jobs in the military department to copy documents and sort out case files. Later, he was sent to serve as a county lieutenant. ”

Lin Xi was surprised: "You mean, he may have seen the record of the Yanmen Pass case in the military department a long time ago, and then knew your identity?" ”
