Chapter Twenty-Eight: Pulling
The coachman of the Zhao family, who was so frightened that he couldn't possess his body, woke up with his hands trembling constantly, and he couldn't drive the carriage at all.
Xu Jing frowned, took the coachman out of the carriage, and called Xu San over.
Xu Erwu has an active temperament and a slippery mouth, so it is most suitable to go to the yamen on an errand. Xu San is silent, his tone is the tightest, and his horse technique is also the best.
"Let's go to Zhao's house first." Xu Jing commanded in a low voice.
Xu San was about to nod his head to receive the order, when another familiar voice suddenly sounded in his ears: "No, go to the official office first." ”
Xu San was stunned.
Xu Jing, who has always been obedient to Zhao Xiyan, tensed his handsome face at this time: "In the middle of the night, you went to the yamen with a girl's house, do you want your reputation?" ”
Fame?
In her previous life, she was a beauty in troubled times, a demon concubine who troubled the dynasty, and countless people scolded her.
She didn't care about fame anymore.
"I don't care." There was no mirror in front of him, and Zhao Xiyan didn't know how indifferent he looked when he said this.
It seems that in this world, there are no people and things worth her attention to.
Xu Jing didn't know where the nameless anger in his heart came from, and his voice was hard: "I care!" ”
Zhao Xiyan: "......"
"Listen to me." Xu Jing had a cold face, and couldn't help but say, "Over there in the Yamen, I'll deal with it." You go back now. Xu San, set off immediately. ”
Xu San immediately received the order, jumped into the carriage, pulled the reins, and raised the whip.
The carriage slowly walked out of the alley, and then quickly moved forward.
The strong man in black, who was lying unconscious in the carriage, was jolted and unconsciously groaned, as if he was about to wake up.
The hosta was startled, and was about to say a reminder, when she saw the prince suddenly stretch out his leg and stomp heavily on the face of the black-clothed bandit. The bandit fainted again.
The hosta silently closed her mouth and lowered her head into her chest.
Zhao Xiyan couldn't tell what he was feeling in his heart, and said in a low voice: "Xu Jing, I'll go to the official office with you." Only I know the identity of these people. ”
Xu Jing snorted from his nose and kicked the black-clothed bandit who was like a dead dog under his feet: "Isn't he better than you?" ”
Zhao Xiyan was choked up, but he was not annoyed, and said softly: "Wang Tong secretly colluded with bandits, and the evidence of the correspondence has already been destroyed by Wang Tong." With only this one living mouth, I'm afraid I can't convict Wang Tong. ”
"Before Wang Tong reacted, send someone to Wang's house now to scare the Yang family, maybe you can deceive some useful evidence."
That's right! That's a good idea!
If you are angry, you still have to listen to what you should hear.
Xu Jing immediately raised his voice and stopped the carriage. Behind the carriage, more than a dozen personal soldiers rode horses to follow, and Xu Jing called a few over and whispered a few words.
Those pro-soldiers received the order and rode fast horses to Wang's house without mentioning it.
The carriage continued.
Zhao Xiyan also tried to persuade Xu Jing: "Time is urgent, the sooner you go to the yamen, the better." Zhaojiafang and the official office are far away, so don't delay......"
"Zhao Xiyan!" Once Xu Jing called her by name and surname, it meant that he was already angry: "If you say half a word more, I will completely turn my face, do you believe it or not?" ”
Turn your face and turn your face.
Zhao Xiyan was finally annoyed and looked up at him.
It's a pity that the light in the carriage is dim, and this eye is slightly lacking, light and soft. It's not like staring, it's like being coquettish.
Shizi, who was still stinky before, suddenly subsided in anger, and quietly reached out to touch the young lady's hand.
The young lady glared again and withdrew her hand.
The prince stretched out his hand again......
Pulling and pulling, the hosta felt ashamed when she looked at it. I couldn't avoid it even if I lowered my head, so I simply turned my head to the side.
Zhao Xiyan's strength was far inferior to Xu Jing's, he held his hands, his heartbeat was a little fast, and his cheeks were hot. In the end, he didn't pull anymore, just let him go.
The two grew up together when they were young, and it was common for them to hold hands side by side. However, after the age of ten, it is rare to be so intimate.
The anger in Xu Jing's heart disappeared, and he was full of smugness at this time. I can't wait for time to freeze, and the carriage will never stop.
……
The long journey has suddenly become short tonight.
Soon, the carriage stopped outside Zhaojiafang.
An anxious familiar voice sounded outside the carriage: "Crescent Moon, is Crescent Moon back?" ”
Zhao Xiyan suddenly withdrew his hand and responded: "Dad, I'm here." ”
Xu Jing retracted his hand with some regret, and his fingertips seemed to have a slippery and soft touch.
Standing outside the carriage was the anxious Zhao Yuanming.
In the evening, when he returned from the clan study, the crescent moon had already left the house in a carriage, leaving a brief letter saying that he had something important and would be back soon.
waited from evening until dark, until the third watch was gone. Zhao Yuanming was so anxious that he turned around and thinner the ground outside the door.
Zhao Xiyan got out of the carriage, Zhao Yuanming's eyes swept away, and his face changed suddenly: "Where did you get the blood on your body?" ”
Zhao Xiyan was shocked to realize that there was a dark red on his clothes.
This is the blood on Xu Jing's clothes, which was stained on her when she embraced.
"I'm safe, it's someone else's blood." Zhao Xiyan hurriedly explained in a low voice.
Xu Jing also quickly got out of the carriage and hugged his fist at the master to apologize: "Master, please calm your anger, I am to blame for today's incident." I'll send Sister Crescent back now, and I'll explain it to my master when the matter is over. ”
Zhao Yuanming's eyes swept over the large blood stains on Xu Jing's body, and he smelled the bloody smell wafting from the carriage between his noses, his heart was full of surprise, and he nodded: "You go and get busy with you first, and I'll talk about it tomorrow if you have something." ”
Xu Jing answered, waited for the hosta to come down, and got into the carriage.
Xu San turned the head of the car, and a group of personal soldiers followed the horse and left.
Zhao Yuanming frowned, didn't ask more, and said in a low voice: "Yue'er will go back with me first." ”
Zhao Xiyan snorted.
The father and daughter walked for a while and soon returned home. Under the bright candle flame, the blood stains on Zhao Xiyan's clothes became more and more dazzling.
"What the hell is going on?" Zhao Yuanming stared at Zhao Xiyan tightly.
Zhao Xiyan closed the door of the study and told him what happened during the day today.
Zhao Yuanming's complexion changed again and again, and the first thing to blurt out was: "You said before that you wanted to break off with Xu Jing." Now, how are you going to explain it to him? ”
The girl's heart is like a mess, and she can't figure it out.
Zhao Xiyan pursed her lips, and there was some annoyance in her tone: "I haven't thought about it yet." ”
The love of a young man is deep, how can he be cut off if he wants to?
Zhao Yuanming didn't know what he remembered, complicated emotions flashed in his eyes, and he quickly hidden: "It's okay, if you don't think about it, think about it slowly." ”
"This time, Wang Tong will shed his skin if he doesn't die! The position of the city gate official will definitely not be kept. ”
"It's a pity that Zhou Sui ran away."
Hearing the words Zhou Sui, Zhao Xiyan's eyebrows were full of expression, and his eyes were cold: "He can't run far." His bandits nest in Qinglong Mountain, Pingyuan County, or it won't be long before he tastes the power of the imperial court's army of bandits. ”
