Those people didn't think about arresting Xu Mingde, and they didn't notice Qiao Jiming who was standing aside, only because Xu Mingde was upset that they would arrest him together.

Qiao Jiming walked out of the village, the road was very desolate, few people lived, he had been walking for three days, just when he thought he was going to starve to death in this wilderness, he finally saw the city wall in front of him. He breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, and continued to walk forward despite his hunger.

happened to meet the caravan sent by the emperor, the caravan was carrying food and basic daily necessities for the relief of the floods in Henan, they saw Qiao Jiming, checked his identity and took him back to Kaifeng Mansion.

Kaifeng Mansion Yin heard that he was a person from Xu Mansion in the capital, and he was hospitable. "I don't know what to call Gongzi?" Fu Yin asked him to take him down to wash, and prepared food for him, and only asked his name when everything was done.

"In Xia Qiao Jiming, he is the nephew of General Xu Jihang Xu. I and another, Xu Mingde, the eldest son of the Xu Mansion, came to Henan to control the water, but was swept away by the flood, and then was harassed by the guards of the local county order, I escaped, please save Mingde, the emperor will also be rewarded if he knows. Qiao Jiming was worried about Xu Mingde's safety, and when he told the ins and outs of the matter, he begged Fu Yin to save people.

"Don't worry, now that the rain has stopped, the emperor and queen are happy to have the prince to amnesty the world, and I will send someone to rescue Xu Gongzi. Fu Yin understood his feelings, comforted him, and sent someone to rescue Xu Mingde after speaking.

"Childe, you don't have to suffer this kind of bullying, it's all my fault. Yunhan and Xu Mingde were escorted into a dark room, and tears fell from Yunhan's eyes as he spoke, and he endured crying.

"As a man with a big beam, how can I see death and not save me?" Xu Mingde didn't care, he hadn't seen any strong winds and waves, what was it. "By the way, girl, what's your name?" Xu Mingde then remembered to ask the girl's name.

"The people's daughter implies. The girl squirmed and said her name. "It turns out that your name is really Yunhan, how can you tell that officer and soldier your real name so honestly?" Xu Mingde felt that this girl was real, and it was not the same as the girl he had seen.

The two were just chatting at first, but they didn't expect that the more they chatted, the more they felt that they would see each other too late. Although this girl is a village girl, she is well-informed, knows some outside things, and understands some poetry, Xu Mingde's favorite thing is her simplicity and kindness.

Yunhan also has a good impression of Xu Mingde, it can be seen from his speech and actions that this is a big man, but he is not ostentatious at all, but very interesting and humble, the two are like-minded and secretly affectionate.

Qiao Jiming took the officers and soldiers of Kaifeng Mansion to rescue Xu Mingde, he was not worried about those officers and soldiers, afraid that they would not be able to save people. When Xu Mingde's door was kicked open, Xu Mingde subconsciously blocked Hanhan's eyes with his hand, afraid that the strong sunlight would sting her eyes, and Hanhan felt a trace of warmth.

"Much later than I thought. Xu Mingde put his arm on Qiao Jiming's shoulders and said to him with a smile. Qiao Jiming ignored him and asked him to help Yunhan up, and the three of them decided to go back to the capital after a short pause.

Wu Chi personally sent someone to send them back to the capital, for fear that there would be any more chaos in the middle. Xu Mingde was naïve, and Qiao Jiming hadn't experienced anything serious, so he didn't ask too much and asked him to escort them back.

Only Yunhan felt that something was wrong, although she had lived in the village since she was a child, but as a woman, she had a bad intuition, but she couldn't say to Xu Mingde, Xu Mingde promised to take her on the road was already a great grace. So she keeps an eye on everything so that nothing happens.

The sky gradually darkened, Wu Chi was more familiar with this place, and told Xu Mingde that there was an inn in front of him, Xu Mingde looked at the implication of being very tired, and decided to rest in that inn.

Hanhan's room is between Xu Mingde and Qiao Jiming, and the two are afraid of Hanhan's girl's home, and it is more convenient to protect her if there is an accident.

After eating, the three of them went back to their rooms to rest. Yunhan felt uneasy and was about to go to find Xu Mingde, but as soon as he opened the door, he saw a soldier sneaking downstairs and walking in the direction of the back kitchen. Han also cautiously followed downstairs and saw that the man had poisoned the tea.

Seeing the implication of this scene, I was glad that I was going out just now, and the soldier was obviously going to poison them. She hurriedly went back, knocked on Xu Mingde's door, called Qiao Jiming over, and talked about it, and the three of them discussed how to face it.

It turned out that Wu Chi was afraid that Xu Mingde would sue in front of the emperor, so he was going to poison the three of them halfway, so as not to blame Mu Yunting, and just find an excuse to prevaricate when the time comes.

Wu Chi came to Xu Mingde's door with a teapot, knocked on the door and saw that the three of them were there, originally wanted to solve them one by one, but he didn't expect that the three of them were there, and they happened to solve it together, and they saved effort.

"Xu Gongzi, this is the pear soup I specially instructed the cook in the inn to cook for you, the weather is hot, and the fire will be extinguished. Wu Chi smiled harmlessly and looked at the three of them.

"Okay, I'm tired. Xu Mingde stood up and thanked him. Seeing this, Wu Chi hurriedly poured water for the three of them. "You have also worked hard along the way, although we have a noble status, but we are also equal to all beings outside, you drink this first cup, just when we thank you. Xu Mingde picked up the teacup and held it in front of Wu Chi with both hands.

"This ...... , you are a nobleman, this is specially prepared for you, the villain is not blessed. Wu Chi wanted to push his hand away, but found that he couldn't.

"I said, everyone is equal, could it be that you are poisonous?" Xu Mingde had prepared the hidden weapon in his sleeve as he spoke.

"How's that, I drink. Wu Chi picked up the cup and threw it on the ground, and several masked people broke through the window. The one at the head stabbed directly at Xu Mingde with a dagger.

Seeing this, Qiao Jiming hurriedly picked up his dagger and fought with those assassins. Although there were many people on the other side, fortunately, the two of them worked hard, and soon the people on the opposite side were defeated.

Wu Chi saw the opportunity to stab Xu Mingde with a short sword, and when Han Han saw that it was too late, he rushed over and blocked Xu Mingde, made a sword for him, and was killed on the spot. Xu Mingde watched Yu Han lying in front of him covered in blood, his heart ached, and he picked up the dagger in his hand and stabbed Wu Chi, but was stopped by Qiao Jiming.

"No, he is also an official, we must not kill him, take him back and hand him over to the emperor for disposal. Xu Mingde held a grudge against him because of Hanhan's death, but after listening to Qiao Jiming's words, he felt that he couldn't act recklessly, so he had to take him back.

Under the escort of Xu Mingde and Qiao Jiming, Wu Chi came to the capital alive, but he would not live long. Bringing him back is just a formality, and it will be a matter of time before he is killed.

When he came to the imperial study, Xu Mingde and the emperor reported what had happened these days. "Your Majesty, Wu Chi killed innocent women and poisoned important ministers in the court, and the ministers thought that they should be severely punished. Xu Mingde thought of Hanhan's death, his heart was full of pain, like the emperor's request, he must not let Hanhan die in vain.

I didn't expect them to have such a hard time along the way, and they were almost killed by traitors. "You are a victim of this matter, so leave it to you to deal with, just report the results to me. Mu Yunting didn't want to meddle in this matter, so he asked him to solve it by himself, and Xu Mingde couldn't ask for it.

When he came to the dungeon, Xu Mingde ordered someone to torture Wu Chi, and sentenced him to death on the spot, and beheaded him three days later. "Wu Chi, you deserve it, be a good person in your next life. Before leaving, Xu Mingde looked at him with hatred.

Too many things have happened along the way, and he never thought that the hearts of the people in the rivers and lakes would be so sinister. He has been growing up under the protection of his parents, and he can be said to be very lucky, but these luck may not be good for his growth. Xu Jihang originally wanted to let him get in touch with the real rivers and lakes and exercise his ability.

After Xu Lianyi learned that Xu Mingde had returned to Beijing safely, she immediately summoned him to Weiyang Palace. Looking at the young man in front of him whose eyes and temperament had changed, Xu Lianyi smiled and took his hand and asked, "How is it? Is there any fun thing along the way? Why did you lose so much weight." ”

Sister is like a mother. , as his sister, she has always felt guilty about Xu Mingde, and she was guilty of not being able to accompany him more when he was young, but fortunately, Xu Mingde is sensible and does not care about these things.

"No, but I saw the real rivers and lakes clearly. Xu Mingde replied lightly, and his tone was disappointed in the rivers and lakes. "Tell me about the rivers and lakes. Xu Lianyi asked curiously, this young man with a mature voice and a young face.

"The hearts of the people in the rivers and lakes are sinister. Xu Mingde said with a firm gaze. "What do you mean by that?" Xu Lianyi obviously felt that Xu Mingde's change was an internal change, and he must have experienced a lot of things along the way.

Xu Mingde sat beside her and told her all the things he had experienced, including Qiao Jiming and his disappearance, and the implicit death, and told the sister in front of him who had loved him since he was a child.

I didn't expect him to experience such cruel things, maybe these things are nothing to other people's children, but she knows that her brother has always lived in a hotbed and is kind-hearted, and this time going out is a kind of growth for him, but it is also a blow.

After comforting Xu Mingde, Xu Lianyi announced that Qiao Jiming entered the palace again. This time, thanks to Qiao Jiming's rescue, I didn't expect him to be grateful to the Xu family, and he didn't stand idly by when Xu Mingde was in trouble.

Xu Lianyi discussed with Mu Yunting, and named him the waiter of the five-grade ministry, and he would not rely on the Xu family to eat, if he did well, he would have a chance to be promoted, so that Qiao Jingyuan would also have a care in the palace, and he would not be embarrassed everywhere after losing his power. Thick burial implications, talk about comfort.

Although Qiao Guogong deserved to be defeated, Qiao Jiming had never been involved in this matter, so he was not innocent to him.
