Chapter 191: I'm Coming
Outside Beiyang City, a team of men and horses was about to arrive in the city, and before the carriage arrived, the Lord of He'an County had already entered the city in advance to report the situation.
Just escorting the two teenagers, naturally he would not work with the Lord of the Imperial Palace, but Wang Lang, the county guard of He'an County, naturally had other plans to let him accompany him to the capital.
The convoy was assassinated in the territory, in addition to the instructions of the people in the capital, the biggest suspect was He'an County, which was only 100 miles away from the place of the incident.
There is no need to produce evidence to prove that He'an County is suspicious, as long as He An County itself has the strength to assassinate the convoy, it will be suspicious.
He'an County has, then there is suspicion, a very simple logic.
You must know that the assassination of the students who participated in the entrance examination is very important, not only are the sons of official families inside, but there is even a big crime of wanting to blame His Majesty the Emperor for this.
No matter who did it, no matter who could not afford these charges, they would inevitably find ways to push this matter out.
And those who can be pushed are the first to bear the brunt of He'an County.
Therefore, the county keeper, who sensed that the situation was not good, sent his nephew to the capital to assist in the investigation of this matter, not hoping to find out the truth, which was something that His Majesty in the capital needed to care about.
He'an Jun just wants to be able to clear the suspicion, and he can't let others splash dirty water on him thousands of miles away.
Therefore, He'an County attaches great importance to this matter, not to mention that the escort is two teenagers and a coachman, even if there is only one coachman, it can't be a little sloppy.
If the people inside were escorted by reinforcements on the way on the way, He'an County would definitely not be able to get rid of this matter, so the Imperial Supervisor Shi Wang recruited troops to escort him all the way, and he was extremely cautious even when resting on the way, and the spear in his hand was not taken off for a moment.
Only when he was about to arrive at the capital, he quickly entered the city to report in advance, and if anything happened to the capital, he would no longer be able to rely on He'an County, because in this capital is the emperor's territory.
There were more than twenty guards on horseback and guns, and in the middle of the guard, there was a carriage in which two teenagers sat in it.
One was dressed in black and had been holding the black sword in his hand, which was naturally Xu Changan, and the other was undoubtedly Cui Xianggong.
Lifting the curtain of the car and looking at the majestic city he was about to arrive, Xu Changan undoubtedly compared it with the cities he had seen.
Sifang City naturally can't be compared with it, thinking that the capital city of Yingdu in the Chu State seems to be inferior to this Beiyang City, it seems that by looking at the capital of a country, you can see whether the country is strong, although this view is a bit superficial, but there is still a certain truth.
Xu Changan licked his lips slightly, looked at the people guarding outside, and thought that it should not be the same as the picture outside the Yingdu City, so he relaxed a little.
Cui Xianggong glanced at Xu Changan opposite, then looked at the black sword in his hand, and said a little puzzled: "Along the way, you have always held this sword." ”
Xu Changan turned around, but he didn't bother to explain this problem to him, and just replied casually: "I am a swordsman, the kind that never leaves my sword." ”
......
Only Xu Changan was embarrassed to say this.
Cui Xianggong shook his head slightly, chuckled, and didn't say anything more.
It was Xu Chang'an, who saw the three of them coming back along the way, and he couldn't help but angrily reprimand those people for being simply misbreeded, and they were scared when they were assassinated, but the angry reprimand was still to prove that he dared to risk his life was really brave.
Cui Xianggong seemed to see the pride on his face, and hurriedly changed the topic and asked, "Where are you going after entering the city?"
Xu Changan rubbed his eyebrows lightly, and pretended to say: "There are some things that are inconvenient to tell you, let's separate outside the city, you tell me where your father lives, and I will go to him." ”
Cui Xianggong smiled bitterly and shook his head, as if he was thinking about whether he was really rational to give such a big handle to the other party, but he still left a note for him, which clearly stated where the residence of the imperial doctor was.
Xu Changan wants to be an official, not only because he can have food and shelter as an official, but also because he can do many things that ordinary people can't do.
These things Earlier, in front of Nawangshu Tower, after listening to Cui Xianggong's words and thinking that the other party's father should be a big official, he already had an idea in his heart, and being majestic and handsome is one thing, but he never forgot why he came to the capital from the beginning.
Worshipping the teacher is a thing, and finding the person who assassinated him and seeking justice is also something to do, but these are all things he thought of doing after he decided to come to the capital because he wanted to find his own Lao Tzu, so the purpose at the beginning was still to find someone.
The soldiers escorted the carriage into the city, and the pedestrians outside the city stopped to watch, and couldn't help but wonder which hero was returning to the capital to be worthy of so many soldiers.
Xu Changan followed the convoy and sat in the carriage with a really long face.
When the carriage arrived at the city gate, Cui Xianggong signaled his coachman to stop, looked at Xu Changan's puzzled expression and made a 'please' action.
Xu Changan licked his lips and said angrily: "Why should I go down?"
Cui Xianggong seriously explained to the other party: "You said that we will separate when you get to the gate of the city, and I also left you the location of the Imperial Doctor's Mansion." ”
Xu Changan was angry, pointed to the car stool that had been erected on the side, and said, "So, why not you?"
Joke, Lao Tzu said that they were separated at the city gate, but who doesn't know that it is comfortable to sit in the carriage, why is it me who goes down and not you?
Cui Xianggong did not argue with the other party, but still patiently explained: "I led the team for the entrance test, and these guards came from He'an County, so they naturally wanted to go with me to restore their lives, I don't know if this classmate wants to go with me to resume their lives?"
Xu Changan rubbed his head, turned his head sideways to look at the erected carriage bench, gritted his teeth and got out of the carriage, "Let's go!"
Cui Xianggong couldn't help but smile, and the carriage then moved forward.
Xu Changan held the black sword in his hand, looked at the carriage in front of him, and then looked up at the three big characters 'Beiyang City' written high on the top of the city gate, and then raised his feet and entered the city a little helplessly.
The gate of the capital city is tall, and the corridor is also wide, just staring at it makes you feel hollow, and the rare things under the city walls are difficult to see in places like Sifang City, let alone the buildings in the city.
Standing at the entrance of the passage, people come and go, look inward, and see prosperity for the first time.
This is the capital, this is Beiyang City, and many people are in this city.
The people he was looking for, the people he wanted to meet again, including the people who wanted to kill him, were here.
Standing at the gate of the city, the contrast between tall and small is extremely obvious, but he has no stage fright.
He told Cui Xianggong that the young master is also a person who has been a young master, so naturally he will not be like a picture that has never seen the world.
In fact, he didn't feel like a ten-year-old boy at all.
This is also normal, if a child lives alone at the age of eight or so, thinking about three meals a day all day, then it is strange for him to look like he is still ten years old when he reaches the age of ten.
Xu Changan doesn't look at people, he can look at his eyes, and his eyes can express a person's true emotions very much, which is much more real than the two pieces of meat on his cheeks that are sometimes very contrived.
Through these he was able to make many useful judgments and thoughts, and it was these thoughts and practices that made him look completely less like a ten-year-old boy.
Along the way, he was asking what a ten-year-old child should look like, and through Cui Xianggong's explanation, he knew that it should be Yu Ming's appearance.
Xu Changan smiled happily, Yu Ming's appearance is indeed very good, but he is different, he needs to live.
Whoever wants to kill me in this city, I'm here.
