Chapter 318: Lord Xian is back

Gyeongan Castle, East.

Zhou Jingxian tried hard to open her eyes, put the cuffs stained with flower water to her nose, and sniffed hard.

The cool smell went straight to her head along her nasal passages, instantly refreshing her mind a lot.

The outline of the capital is already in front of you, and the ancient and thick city walls have not been seen for many days, and they are still as vicissitudes as when they left.

But I always feel that something is different.

"It should be a different state of mind."

Zhou Jingxian thought in her heart and pinned the saber to her waist.

Enter Kannai Road and beware of darkness under the lights.

But when she came to the capital, at the feet of the Son of Heaven, the imperial grandfather was in the palace, and this sense of steadiness made her tense nerves relax for a while.

But only for a moment.

Because she is about to face a more difficult dilemma, and this dilemma is beyond her control, and it is not something that she can change with her efforts.

But to be a human being, with a clear conscience is to travel lightly.

Mentally prepared, Zhou Jingxian drove the horses that stepped down, quickened her pace, and walked straight ahead over the convoy.

When he arrived at the city gate, he saw Ji Shangshu and two rows of heavily armored soldiers, standing majestically in front of the city gate that was about to close, and seeing her arrival, Ji Shangshu bowed his hand.

"Lord Xian, on the orders of His Majesty, wait here to welcome Lord Xian back to Beijing!"

"Welcome the county lord back to Beijing!"

The crowd was so loud that it attracted the attention of the people in the city.

"Lord Xian? Is that the Xian county lord mentioned in "Will Enter the Wine"? ”

"Isn't she in Jinling? How did you get back? ”

"Haven't you heard? Jinling Mansion because of the placement of wounded soldiers, accidentally found a taste of medicinal materials, but the baby, by the Xian County Lord specially escorted back to the capital, you see that the endless convoy is not there, it is loaded with that flavor of medicinal materials. ”

The people in the city were talking about it endlessly.

The name of the county lord of Xian, after spreading overnight, is definitely louder than when the holy decree was awarded.

By tomorrow, for the name of the county lord of Xian, everyone in the capital must know and no one will know.

Such a battle definitely gave Zhou Jingxian enough face.

This somewhat flattered Zhou Jingxian.

Especially the sentence "Welcoming the county lord Xian into Beijing", in the past, she would not think too much, but at this time she sensed the meaning of the imperial grandfather.

It should be that she has been empowering the escort, and has offset the previous task of saving food for the sake brewing recipe.

She should have been very happy to be able to stabilize her position in the eyes of the imperial grandfather, but thinking that this honor would soon not belong to her, Zhou Jingxian pulled the corners of her mouth weakly.

"Lord Hardship Ji, Grandpa Huang said, where do you want to pull the tobacco seeds?"

Zhou Jingxian first finished the most important official affairs before she could deal with private affairs.

Ji Shangshu and Zhou Jingxian have never met a few times, and the most impressive thing about the county lord of Xian may only be the poem "Will Enter the Wine" written by Jinling Shixian.

originally thought that Zhou Jingxian would take advantage of the crowd to exaggerate her exploits first, win the love of the people in the capital, and establish her prestige.

Unexpectedly, this Xian County Lord didn't engage in these vain things at all, and put on a business-oriented attitude.

So much better.

Ji Shangshu was also very curious, and he had always been concerned by His Majesty, so that Su Rui judged that what tobacco could drive Daxing to pay taxes was than steamed wine.

It just so happened that he could follow him into the palace today and see if it was really as magical as Su Rui said.

"Lord Xian, Your Majesty asked you to bring the convoy directly into the palace."

The voice fell.

The heavy armor soldiers in the city, armed with spears, pushed the crowd of people watching the bustle in the road to both sides.

In a short time, a thoroughfare wide enough to cross a troika was freed up.

Ji Shangshu bent down slightly and gestured inside the city gate, sideways two steps out of the way, and asked the county lord to lead the convoy first.

"Then I'll be respectful and obey."

Zhou Jingxian lightly clamped the horse's belly and stepped under the city tower.

Slowly, into the darkness.

Father, the child has returned.

Grandpa Huang.

I'm glad I didn't lose my life!

Zhou Jingxian looked at the crowd on both sides of the street, her vision blurred for a moment, she bit the tip of her tongue hard, and sped up.

"Full speed ahead!"

……

In front of Suzaku Gate.

King Jin stood beside King Kang, and it was rare not to say a word, but it made King Kang mutter in his heart.

"Why has the tenth brother kept his face black today, but what happened?"

King Kang has not yet learned the truth about the damage to the tobacco, so he asks this question.

But to King Jin's ears, these words were just pretense, he snorted lightly, turned his body to the other side, and didn't pay attention to King Kang's meaning at all.

King Kang was suddenly confused, and he didn't understand how King Jin didn't show the illusion of a brother and a friend in front of people.

Isn't it.

After the arrival of tobacco seeds, is he going to fight with the king of Jin on the table?

Even if it is put on the table, but the father is still in front of him, why is King Jin not pretending?

The interaction between the two naturally did not escape Zhou Qian's eyes.

Regarding King Jin's various performances today, Zhou Qian was also puzzled when he saw it.

In his opinion, even though King Jin is a little domineering because he is favored by him, the royal children are used to doing superficial work.

There must be a reason why King Jin is so hostile to Concubine Jing and King Kang's mother and son.

Is it to spill anger over the destruction of tobacco seeds?

Since King Jin informed him in advance, the matter was half settled, and King Jin didn't need to leave him with the impression of being a little belly and suspicious.

What else did he not know?

Zhou Qian waited for the arrival of the tobacco convoy with doubts.

Thinking that after seeing Jingxian girl, he should be able to solve his doubts.

Grunt......

The ground shook slightly.

Zhou Qian put aside the matter of King Jin for the time being, narrowed his cloudy eyes, took a step forward, and looked towards the train convoy that appeared at the end of the street.

In front, Ji Shangshu led the troops to open the way, and in the back, he was dressed in red fluttering, which was very eye-catching.

It was Zhou Jingxian.

Far away, he couldn't see his real face, Zhou Qian recalled the appearance of the quiet girl in his memory.

It seems to be similar to Concubine Jing, and it is not amazing like King Kang, and it seems that he said that his eyebrows and eyes are similar to him.

Last time I talked to Jingxian girl...... Still last time.

Zhou Qian couldn't remember, but it didn't affect the kind smile on his face, and the smile on his face was even worse after Zhou Jingxian's horse stopped.

"Your Majesty, the convoy that the minister has received has arrived."

Ji Shangshu completed the task and stepped aside, waiting to see the miraculous effects of tobacco.

Zhou Jingxian saw that the palace came to greet her, took a deep breath, tightened the reins and turned over and dismounted, so as not to fall off the horse.

Forced to step forward, she fell to her knees without saying a word.

"Jingxian girl has been tired all the way, please get up quickly."

Zhou Jingxian supported the ground with her hands, stood up with her strength, and after shaking her body slightly, she hugged her fist at Zhou Qian.

"Grandpa Huang, my granddaughter has an important matter to report to you alone, and I also ask Grandpa Huang to move elsewhere."

As soon as this remark came out.

Everyone's faces became delicate.

Especially King Jin, the corners of his mouth hooked up a sarcastic smile.

Can't wait to be invited to receive the reward?

The daughter taught by King Kang is really a tiger.

Zhou Qian also felt that at this time, there was nothing more important than testing tobacco in public, but seeing Zhou Jingxian's tense face, the stubborn appearance between her eyebrows and eyes, as if she could be reflected in the bronze mirror every morning, he nodded reluctantly and pointed to the corner of the palace wall.

"Let's go there and talk about it."

Since it was necessary to report separately, Zhou Qian pointed out the place again.

Naturally, others had to take a few steps back and make room for it.

Zhou Jingxian followed Zhou Qian's footsteps forward, and when she was about to cross the King of Jin and King Kang, she suddenly stopped and made another request.
