More than a dozen large carts disappeared at the gate of the city. Jiang Yue turned around and said, "That seems to be the emblem of the Xu family in Nanyuan? Let me find out."
Not long after, his subordinates came to report: "It is indeed the convoy of the Xu family from Nanyuan. They are leaving Beijing and returning today."
Jiang Yue looked seriously again, his hand couldn't help but press the handle of the knife at his waist.
Nanyuan Xu family, was Miss Xu San on one of the carriages? She just passed them by like this.
The curtain of the carriage next to it was raised, and a middle-aged man dressed as a counselor called out: "Captain Jiang, this is the capital city, we have official business, so don't bother yourself."
Jiang Yue closed his eyes, breathed out slowly, and finally put away the fierce light in his eyes, showing a gentle smile: "I understand."
The counselor nodded with satisfaction and stretched out his hand to invite him in.
Jiang Yue dismounted, threw the reins to his subordinates, and jumped onto the carriage himself.
"Miss Xu San is very lucky to have left at this time." The counselor brought him a glass of warm water.
Jiang Yue drank it in one breath, his face darkened again, and he said coldly: "She can run fast, otherwise..."
"What else? Kill her?" The counselor smiled, with a warning in his tone, "Ah Yue, don't forget what we came here to do. Even if she hasn't left, we can't take action at will now."
"That's not what I meant." Jiang Yue explained in a low voice, "I just thought that if she doesn't leave, she will definitely be involved, and she won't be able to leave even if she wants to. In that case, we will have a chance to take revenge."
The counselor nodded: "This is true, so she is lucky!"
He looked at Jiang Yue and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
In the past, I always felt that young people were too out-of-the-box to be entrusted with important responsibilities. This year, he has calmed down, but the price he paid was too high.
Last year in the battle of Dongjiang, the governor was seriously injured, and Tian Datou, who grew up with his father and brother, died. Songjiang camp, which had been managed for several years, had to be handed over to his old rival Yang Gu. Jiang Yue took all the failures on himself, and loved
The laughing and joking young man rarely had a smile on his face, and he kept chanting the name he hated so much every moment of the day.
It’s good to have goals and motivation, but being too persistent will inevitably turn into inner demons.
On this trip to the capital, the governor specifically asked Jiang Yue to lead the team and asked him to provide guidance along the way, in order to help him regain his confidence and avoid being entangled in obsessions.
Hope everything goes well!
…
At night, the plains are dotted with sparks.
Xu Yin sat by the fire, reading a piece of information just sent by Wen Yi.
Those who entered the city that day were indeed people from Jiangbei, led by Jiang Yue, who presented Mid-Autumn Festival gifts to the emperor.
Jiang Yi was the emperor's confidant and would not miss any important festivals, but this time it was Jiang Yue who was sent. Xu Yin always felt that it was not that simple.
Wei Jun arranged the night watch and came over and said, "Miss Third, are you still worried about Jiang Yue?"
Xu Yin nodded, handed Wen Yi's letter to him, and said, "What do you think is Jiang Yue's reason for coming to Beijing?"
Wei Jun looked at it and replied: "With such a big change happening in the capital, maybe he went to inquire about the situation? After all, Jiang Yiyuan is in Jiangbei, and he must be worried about the changes in the situation in the capital. No one can say good things to him in front of the emperor."
This is a reason. Xu Yin thought for a moment, and a thought suddenly flashed in his mind: "Jiang Yi had a good relationship with Zhang Huaide before. Do you think he is related to King Duan?"
Wei Jun scratched his head: "This...isn't it right? The emperor's downfall will do no good to Jiang Yi! King Duan is young and powerful, and his desire for power is even greater. With such a master, it will definitely not be as easy as the current majesty."
Xu Yin thought so. However, in the previous life, King Duan did not take action against Jiang Yi after he came to power. Jiang Yi still served as the governor of Jiangbei and quickly gained his support to join forces to destroy Dongjiang.
Did the two parties reach an agreement after King Duan came to power, or was Jiang Yi originally in cahoots with King Duan? She couldn't guess.
"If Third Miss is so worried, why don't I go back and keep an eye on her?" Wei Jun suggested.
Xu Yin smiled, pulled the information back and threw it into the fire, and said: "That's all, if there is anything, you can't change it when you go back. Since we have left Beijing, let's talk about it when we go home!"
The rebellion gradually subsided, and she expected that the emperor was about to take action against King Duan. Without Yu Chong this time, King Duan was like a tiger with his teeth pulled out. What happened next was no longer under her control.
It's better to go home first. She has been away from home for more than half a year and she can't wait.
"Go and have a rest!" Xu Yin untied his cloak and handed it to Xiao Man, then climbed into the car and went to sleep.
It took them nearly two months to go there because of ice and snow blocking the road, but the return trip took them only half the time.
Before September arrived, Xu Yin finally saw the Nanyuan City that he had been dreaming about.
She couldn't bear the slow speed of the carriage, so she rode into the city herself and went straight to the governor's mansion.
"Father! Sister!"
As soon as she reached the gate of the house, she threw the reins to the boy and rushed in.
After not seeing each other for more than half a year, the Governor's Mansion seems to have changed. The old places have been repaired, and lights and decorations are decorated from the entrance to the lobby, as if there is some happy event.
Xu Huan was working on the board of directors when he suddenly heard his daughter shouting outside. In the blink of an eye, he saw her rushing in like a gust of wind, and he was shocked.
"Ayin! You..."
Xu Yin threw herself into his arms and shouted: "Father! I'm back!"
Seeing his daughter's excited little face, he burst into laughter, hugged her gently, and said, "It'll be good to come back! The person who reported the news said that you will go to the city in the afternoon, and my father wanted to give you a surprise. I didn't expect him first.
It scared you for a while. Look, your cheeks are sharp. You haven't rested much on the road, right? Really, no one is chasing you, why don't you walk slower? "
Listening to his father's ramble, Xu Yin's heart was filled with joy.
Xu Huan was also excited for a moment and began to babble unknowingly. Seeing that his daughter was fine and seemed to have grown taller, he felt relieved and asked for help.
Xu Yin answered one by one: "I'm fine! Your Majesty is very easy to coax. I have made friends with Princess Changning, and no one in the palace dares to bully me. Concubine Shu? She wants to bully me, so she is unlucky!"
Xu Huan didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "You said it so easily. Do you know how worried we were when we received the letter? You, the daughter of a foreign minister, get involved in the harem dispute and you may lose your life accidentally!"
"It was she who bullied me!" Xu Yin said aggrievedly, "I didn't provoke her, but she wanted to harm me. What can I do? Anyway, she is the unlucky one, not me."
"You have the most reasons." Xu Huan thought about it and felt sorry for his daughter. Hearing the simplicity in her letter, he didn't know how many dangers he had encountered in the past six months.
He said in a soft tone: "You are back safely, and my father's heart is finally settled. Were you tired on the road? Go back to freshen up and rest first. If anything happens, we will talk about it later."
Xu Yin responded obediently. Thinking of the colorful silk hanging outside, he asked casually: "Father, is there any happy event in our family?"
Xu Huan replied with a smile: "Yes! Your sister is getting engaged."
