Chapter 193: Emergency Measures
When they arrived outside the woods, Xiao Yuchen and the county lord of Jianing did not get into the carriage immediately, but waited for the battle inside to be over, and after their people came back, they counted the number of people before getting into the carriage.
On Xiao Yuchen's side, the two guards were injured, but they were not very serious, and neither of them was life-threatening. On the side of the county lord of Jianing, a guard died. She had the guard's body brought with her, ready to be cremated and the ashes to be brought back to the guard's family.
The car drove around for half an hour and arrived at the county office, and the Shen county order had already asked people to pack up the room and come out, so that Xiao Yuchen and the county lord of Jianing could go to rest. Xiao Yuchen entered the room and immediately went to take a bath.
And on the side of the county lord of Jianing, the sister and brother are talking. The younger brother Li Jinghao stood in front of the county lord of Jianing, and said with a wrinkled face and guilt: "If it weren't for me, my sister wouldn't have had to travel a long way to Beijing, and she wouldn't have been caught by the mountain bandits." ”
The county lord of Jianing wiped his hands with a wet handkerchief, and said in his mouth: "Don't say such things in the future, we are one." I went to Beijing to find a way out for you, and also for myself. If you're bad, how can I? ”
Li Jinghao lowered his head and pursed his lips without speaking, and the county lord of Jianing reached out and touched his head and said: "When you arrive in Shangjing, you can't be competitive, you don't have to be out of the way in everything, just behave mediocre in front of the emperor." ”
Li Jinghao nodded, he understood that he was the eldest son of Duan Wangyan, and if he wanted the emperor to make him the prince, he had to be mediocre. No emperor wants a strong prince.
"I'm going to freshen up, you go and rest." The county lord of Jianing said to Li Jinghao.
But Li Jinghao stood there but didn't move, looking like he wanted to say something and stopped. Seeing this, the county lord of Jianing said, "What do you have to say?" ”
"It's just... You are locked up with the prince of Yongning, you ......"
He also saw the two of them running together holding hands.
The county lord of Jianing turned slightly stiff when he heard his words, and then said: "I don't think what I shouldn't say, the prince of Yongning Hou won't say." ”
"Then you..."
"Nothing, don't worry about my affairs, go and rest." The county lord of Jianing got up and pushed him out, and Li Jinghao could only open the door and go out.
When I opened the door, I saw two personal maids of the county lord of Jianing, waiting at the door. Li Jinghao stepped out, and two maids came in to serve the county lord of Jianing to bathe.
"Have you two ever been hurt?" The county lord of Jianing asked.
The two maids shook their heads, Yun Qing raised her hand to wipe away her tears and said, "If the princess is still here, knowing that you have suffered such a big crime, she will definitely die of distress." ”
The county lord of Jianing walked to the clean room, and said in his mouth: "What kind of crime is this, if I don't take this step, a bigger sin is waiting for me and Jing Hao behind." ”
"The prince used to be so good to you and Gongzi, why now..."Yun Hua also began to shed tears.
There was a sneer on the face of the county lord of Jianing, "Haven't you heard that if you have a stepmother, you will have a stepfather." Where will he care about the life and death of our siblings now? Well, don't cry, there's always something reasonable. ”
The two maids wiped away their tears and began to bathe her.
Here, after Xiao Yuchen finished bathing, he simply ate something, then took out a pen and paper and began to write a letter home, but he didn't plan to write it in this time, so as not to worry his family.
After he wrote the letter, he was about to go to bed, and Changfeng went over to make his bed, and said, "What do you plan to do with that mountain bandit?" ”
Xiao Yuchen unbuttoned his clothes and said, "Shen County Commander must have reported the matter to Bing Beidao, and Bing Beidao will not care." ”
Let's not talk about his identity, the county lord of Jianing is the county lord of the prince's mansion, a royal family, but he was captured by mountain bandits in this place, and it is unfavorable for the military preparation road, and they will definitely send troops to suppress the bandits.
Changfeng made the bed, secretly glanced at Xiao Yuchen, and whispered, "The slave has seen your hand with the county lord of Lajianing." ”
Xiao Yuchen: "......" is just the tip of your eyes.
"It was a contingency." Xiao Yuchen glared at Changfeng Dao.
Changfeng snorted, "The slave knows." ”
"Don't talk nonsense, women's names are important." Xiao Yuchen said sternly.
Changfeng hurriedly promised, "The minion will never say it." ”
Xiao Yuchen snorted, "You should also go and rest." ”
Changfeng retreated, and Xiao Yuchen also went to bed.
After breakfast the next day, Shen Xianling asked them to go to the front hall. When Xiao Yuchen and Guan Yinian arrived, they saw that Li Jinghao and Shen Xianling were already there, and after saluting each other, they sat down, and Shen Xianling said: "Yesterday, I have asked people to hurry up and send a letter to the military preparation road, and the military preparation road should arrive today, I hope you will wait." ”
If Bingbeidao sent troops to suppress bandits, he should ask them about some mountain bandits, and Xiao Yuchen and Li Jinghao had no objections.
Li Jinghao also said: "Yesterday we sent someone to Beijing to pick up our sister and brother, and our sister and brother will be bothered for a few more days." ”
Shen Xianling hurriedly said that it didn't matter, he couldn't ask for it.
After saying the matter, the three of them went out of the hall together, Li Jinghao and Xiao Yuchen said, "Did Xiao Shizi return to Beijing afterwards?" ”
"No, I still have something to do." Xiao Yuchen said.
Li Jinghao nodded, "Does the prince have something to bring back to Shangjing?" I can help the son bring it back. ”
"That's a good feeling," Xiao Yuchen said, "I'll clean it up when I go back, and please help me bring it back." ”
"No trouble."
Li Jinghao glanced at Xiao Yuchen, when he saw him yesterday, he was embarrassed and didn't pay attention to his appearance. Seeing this Xiao Shizi again today, he can be said to be the most handsome man he has ever seen.
He thought of his sister again, and sighed in his heart.
After separating, Xiao Yuchen and Guan Yinian did not go back to the room, and the two went directly to the street to buy things. The things that Xiao Yuchen bought for Tang Shuyi and the three of them before were all robbed by the mountain bandits, so they had to buy them again.
Guan Yinian also bought some, the Guan family not only helped the Hou Mansion take care of Xishan Zhuangzi, but also bought a lot of land and shops over the years, the family is very wealthy, and Guan Yinian is not short of money in his hands.
When they came back after shopping, the military preparation road had already arrived, Xiao Yuchen put the things back in the room, and took Changfeng to the hall.
On the way, they met the lord of Jianing, who also went to the hall, saluted each other, and then went over together. Because of yesterday's "intimate" contact, Xiao Yuchen and the county lord of Jianing were a little embarrassed to meet again, and they didn't speak all the way.
Bing Beidao really asked them about the mountain bandits, and the three of them told them what they saw and heard, and after hearing this, Bing Beidao said: "The robbery of the mountain bandits in the jurisdiction of the lower official is a dereliction of duty on the part of the lower official. The lower officer must have led his troops to suppress those mountain bandits as soon as possible. ”
Xiao Yuchen and the county lord of Jianing did not say anything about this, it is his duty to suppress bandits, if the bandits are successful, his official position may be kept, and if the bandits are not successful, then lose the black yarn hat.
After leaving the hall, several people went back to their place together, this time it was not too embarrassing. On the way, Xiao Yuchen asked the county lord of Jianing, "Did the emperor send someone to pick up the county lord and Li Gongzi?" ”
"It's not good to disturb Uncle Huang about this matter, I have someone to send a message to my grandmother." The main road of Jianing County.
Xiao Yuchen thought about it, the foreign home of the county lord of Jianing is the Liguo Mansion. However, after the death of Liguo Gong, none of the younger generations became talents, and the ones they saw gradually declined.
"The county lord is tired of helping me bring things back to Beijing." Xiao Yuchen said politely.
"With a gesture, the son of the world doesn't have to be polite." The lord of Jianing County politely replied.
The two politely said a few words, and then went back to their rooms.
PS: I originally wanted to talk about how they met the mountain bandits, but after writing it, I found out that even if I didn't write it, everyone would probably be able to make it up in my brain, so I simply didn't write it.
