Chapter 278: Beijing, they are back
The officials at the post station knew that King Qi was going to cross the road and settle down, so they made preparations early.
These days were rushing, in order to shorten the trip, they didn't rest at noon, and sat in the carriage all day, Su Ying's bones were shaken and broken.
After Su Ying arrived at the station room, she lay down directly on the bed.
The child's bones are soft, and he can lie down in the car, so he is not so tired, but after getting off the car, he feels much more energetic.
Su Ying ate something casually, washed up, handed the child to Mother Zhao, and they fell asleep.
Su Ying woke up and heard Jiang Yang's voice from the outside room.
"My lord, Mawang is here, and he said that the route station knew that the lord is here, so he came to visit."
"Bring someone in."
"yes."
Su Ying went to bed early last night, and now she wakes up early and is more energetic. She hugged the children in the bed, covered them with quilts, washed them with cold water, and went downstairs.
There is a dining hall on the first floor, it is not big, it is in one room.
Ma Wang looked at Xiao Jin with an unclear expression, and saw that there was more hostility between his brows than when we saw him in the past, and a deep meaning flashed in his eyes.
"At the beginning, when I heard about King Qi's accident, I was very shocked. King Qi threw his head and blood for the state of Chu. No one knows, but the generals who scatter their blood outside are nothing compared to those clever men on Chaotang. The eloquent officials, the emperor listened to their nonsense and wronged the prince, it is really chilling." Ma Wang expressed emotion.
Xiao Jin just drank the tea in his hand with an expressionless face, and then he said slowly after Ma Wang finished speaking: "Ma Wang thinks the emperor doesn't know right from wrong?"
Ma Wang was startled, his words were intended to be provocative, so why did he look down on Emperor Kang Ze?
Although it is one thing to think in your heart, who will say it.
"King Qi misunderstood, this king is just grievances for King Qi."
Xiao Jin put down the teacup in his hand, "The emperor will restore my king's innocence."
Seeing how powerful Xiao Jin was, King Ma followed his words and said, "What King Qi said is that this king will first congratulate King Qi for his grievance. The power is in his hands, and the power of 300,000 soldiers, even if someone wants to Murdering the prince has to be weighed and weighed again and again."
"This king has to set off to return to Beijing as soon as possible, so I won't send Ma Wang off." Xiao Jin stood up, and his intention to see off the guests couldn't be more obvious.
The smile on King Ma's face remained unchanged, "If King Qi hadn't been in a hurry, I would have invited you to Mawang City to have a talk, then I would have left."
"No delivery."
Jiang Yang personally sent Ma Wang out of the station, and when he came back, his face sank.
"This horse king has more guts than his hair, and he has said a few words since he came here, and none of them are testing the prince."
Jiang Yang turned around and saw Xiao Jin looking at him, he thought his face was stained and reached out to touch it.
"What does the prince see his subordinates doing?"
Xiao Jin asked in surprise, "You can hear him trying?"
Jiang Yang choked, he seriously suspected that the prince was humiliating him!
"Obviously the prince only has the military power of Jincheng in his hands. Where did the 300,000 yuan come from? He just wants to know if the prince will hand over the tiger talisman at Yanxi Pass to the emperor. Knowing this, what else can he do? ..." Before Jiang Yang finished speaking, he realized that something was wrong, and quickly closed his mouth wisely.
Xiao Jin glanced at him coolly, "If you go back to the capital and do this again, you'll be waiting to have your tongue cut off."
"This subordinate deserves to die, please forgive me, my lord."
"Go and straighten your tongue before you come to see me."
"yes."
When Xiao Jin returned to the wing, Su Ying was preparing to have breakfast.
Xiao Jin sat down on the chair, picked up the bowl and chopsticks and ate.
"Did you eat with Ma Wang?"
Xiao Jin didn't even raise his head, "I can't eat that face."
Su Ying discovered that this kid's mouth is quite poisonous.
"Fortunately, his son is not like him." Su Ying is not afraid that King Ma will recognize her. If she does not admit it, who can prove that she was the one who treated Princess Ma?
Xiao Jin paused with his chopsticks, and said without changing his face: "What? Still thinking about Prince Ma?"
Su Ying didn't notice the slightest difference, "I'm just curious if my breathing therapy will work for his heart disease."
Xiao Jin suddenly stopped what he was doing, "Did you treat him?"
It was only then that Su Ying realized that Xiao Jin's expression was a little ready for a storm, "What's the problem?"
Xiao Jin put the bowl and chopsticks on the table, "Where did you touch him?"
"Why should I touch him?" Su Ying felt that there was something wrong with Xiao Jin, not a serious one.
Didn't touch it?
Xiao Jin slowly picked up the bowl and chopsticks.
"I'm just curious."
Su Ying frowned, is that curiosity? Just with his posture just now, even if Prince Ma was in front of him, he would be able to throw people off, and he didn't know what kind of madness he was going into.
"Don't go crazy." Su Ying put the bowls and chopsticks on the table when she was full, and was about to carry the two little milk dolls to the car. Let them sleep for a while before they woke up, anyway. Driving is also boring, it's better to sleep in, sleep a few more times and you'll be there.
The team continued to set off, and after walking for about ten days, they finally saw the gate of the capital.
Su Ying watched from a distance through the curtain of the car, no matter how he looked at it, he felt that this city gate was still inferior to the city walls of Tiankui City.
"Auntie!"
Seeing the gate of the capital, the two little milk buns subconsciously threw themselves into Su Ying's arms.
Su Ying hugged them tightly and comforted them softly, signaling them not to be afraid.
Xiao Jin looked at the towering city gate with dark eyes.
Jingcheng, he is back again.
Originally, the emperor would send people to the gate of the city to welcome the team that had defeated the returning court, and the common people would also cheer along the way, but when Xiao Jin and the others entered the city, there was no reaction to their arrival inside or outside the capital.
Although they traveled lightly and with a large team behind in order to hurry, they didn't even have a eunuch, which was really unreasonable.
After the team entered the city, the car became lively, and there were hawkers shouting everywhere.
Compared with the city of Tiankui, the capital is naturally much more lively.
After the initial fear was pacified, the playful child lay on the car window curiously and looked at the street outside. His two big eyes were full of anticipation for everything outside the car.
Xiao Jin has not been restored by the emperor, so they can't go back to the palace. When Qi Wangfu was ransacked, Xiao Jin's private house was also confiscated.
Now they have returned to the capital, but whether they can gain a foothold in the capital again depends on Emperor Kang Ze.
So after the team entered the city, they headed towards the palace without stopping for a moment.
When the team arrived outside the palace gate, the Imperial Army stopped them.
Xiao Jin and Su Ying got off the carriage, and the child stayed in the carriage, so there was no need to follow them into the palace.
After Jiang Yang and others went to negotiate with the forbidden army, the forbidden army entered the palace to send a message.
Before waiting too long, Emperor Kang Ze summoned them into the palace.
