Chapter Eighty-Five: Arriving at the Destination
Before Xiang Jiuling could see it clearly, he saw that the person who was surrounded in the courtyard suddenly burst out, and he didn't know how to break the rope on his body.
Seeing this, a few people didn't dare to be ambiguous, and immediately started to arrest people, and the venue instantly became a mess, and Xiang Jiuling was dazzled when they saw it.
This group of soldiers and bandits are doing nothing in this troubled world, and it should not be the bad people who oppose them.
Xiang Jiuling subconsciously touched the dagger hidden in his sleeve, thinking about whether to go up to help, but after observing for a while, Xiang Jiuling realized that he was thinking too much, and the man was completely comfortable with so many people, one left and one right, one up and one up in the crowd, but those people were as tired and panting as if they were being played by monkeys.
As soon as she breathed a sigh of relief, Xiang Jiuling suddenly felt a chill in her back, and as soon as she raised her eyes, she saw something shining with cold light flying straight towards her.
At the last moment, she quickly dodged to the side, and the thing swooped to the tree behind it, making a screeching sound.
Xiang Jiuling looked at the dark weapon that flashed with cold light, frowned slightly, and then looked at the courtyard, only to find that the lively courtyard that was still fighting just now was actually empty, and when she was stunned, a cold sword had been placed on her neck.
When he looked up, he was facing the man's dark and cold eyes.
He...... What does that mean? She was thinking just now that if he couldn't beat her, she would go up to help, but she didn't expect that the next moment she would be held by someone with a sword to her neck.
"Who are you?" The icy sound didn't seem to have any temperature, and even the surrounding temperature dropped by a few degrees.
She's just an ordinary civilian, and she can use such a big battle?
"I was afraid that you would be harmed by them, so I came to see it, but I didn't expect me to do it too much!"
Could it be that her face really looks like a bad person, otherwise how could she put the sword on her neck without asking?
Oops, I wouldn't have come to join in the excitement if I knew I wouldn't have come, really!
Seeing that she didn't look like she was lying, and remembering that she hadn't made any other moves, the man immediately withdrew his sword.
It is also the kung fu of this moment, Xiang Jiuling slipped away directly, although she didn't know the identity of the man, but just from his temperament and kung fu, she knew that it was definitely not simple, and now she still had important things to do, so she couldn't cause unnecessary trouble.
After running away, Xiang Jiuling stopped to rest, and only relaxed when she saw that no one was chasing her behind, it seemed that the person also intended to let her go, otherwise according to the person's elusive kung fu, she would definitely not be so easy to leave.
After going back, Xiang Jiuling did not tell what she had encountered today, but accelerated the progress of purchasing the necessary items, and the family set off again after recuperating in the city for a few days.
……
It took a lot of time, and they finally arrived at their destination in the evening - the capital.
The children were particularly excited, and when they looked at the tall and majestic gates, they exclaimed again and again, and they were eager to hurry in and have a look, which was not comparable to the gates of those small towns.
Finally arriving at the destination, thinking of the hardships they have experienced along the way, everyone can't help but have a feeling of the aftermath of the disaster.
Fortunately, they had already prepared the household registration papers, and the entry into the city was very smooth, and there were no twists and turns.
The capital is indeed as bustling as rumored, the streets are full of people, selling all kinds of snacks, juggling, and singing little songs, which can be described as extremely lively, more prosperous than any small city they have ever seen.
Qin Zhenzhen opened her eyes wide and looked at all this in front of her, her heart was like a tidal wave rolling, she didn't expect that one day she would be able to come to the capital, the bustling and lively here was beyond her imagination.
"Okay, don't look at it, hurry up, we have to find a good place to stay as soon as possible."
Seeing that Qin Zhenzhen was fascinated, Xiang Jiuling hurriedly stepped forward and patted her on the shoulder, and the family quickly found an inn to live in first.
This time in Beijing, they can't publicize it, they have to be cautious, so Xiang Jiuling thought that he could use the money he earned before to rent a small shop, and planned to do business first.
She quickly finalized everything, even bought new bedding, and they all cleaned and made their beds in the newly rented house.
After cleaning up, Qin Zhenzhen helped to cook.
"Mother, this soup is so delicious, I like to drink the soup made by my mother!"
Sanni is now completely impressed by Xiang Jiuling's cooking skills, and praises vigorously, this little mouth is really sweeter than honey.
Xiang Jiuling smiled and nodded her little nose: "Okay, Nizi likes to drink it, my mother will boil it for you later, this will be over, it's time to take a bath and sleep." ”
The night was getting darker, but Wen Xi didn't fall asleep for a long time, and after thinking about it, he still discussed with Xiang Jiuling: "This time I entered the capital, I am going to participate in the imperial examination, so as to avoid my identity being exposed, and I can also enter the court in an instant to investigate the affairs of the year, what do you think?" ”
"If you say that, it means that you have already thought about everything, so follow your ideas."
Xiang Jiuling didn't have any opinions, after getting along for such a long time, she knew that Wen Xi was a stable person, and she couldn't get along with frivolity and slippery.
And she doesn't know anything about the court, and women can't be officials, so she can't help at all in many things, and now that Wen Xi has a plan, she naturally expresses her absolute support.
"That's good, I will take the road of the imperial examination and strive to enter the court as soon as possible to find out the truth."
Wen Xi couldn't help but feel a resentment in his heart when he thought of those hateful traitors who had harmed so many people for their own selfish interests, this revenge would be avenged sooner or later, and he would definitely make them pay the price they deserved.
He looked at Xiang Jiuling's somewhat worried appearance, and subconsciously reached out to put a strand of long hair behind her ear, and whispered: "Okay, it's not too early, don't think about it, go to sleep." ”
"Well, don't think about it, those wicked will be punished in the end."
She doesn't know how to comfort people, she can only think of what to say, and the things in the court have not been clear since ancient times, but whoever is in power has the final say, and if you want to succeed, you have to be in a high position.
The next day, the shop officially opened and began to sell goods.
These small things sold by Xiang Jiuling are not available in the capital, and they are all novel, and some of them are exchanged by her from the space, the people in the capital are either rich or expensive, and they can afford to pay for the new things, and the things are sold quickly, and Qin Zhenzhen is too busy.
After a lot of work, I finally got some leisure.
At this time, a beggar came to the door, holding a broken bowl in his hand, and the clothes on his body were eyeholes, none of which were intact, and even emitted a foul smell, which made people not want to approach at all.
