Chapter 111: Seeing Off
It took nearly an hour for Li Xin to stop the little girl's tears and reluctantly explain the matter to her.
Zhong Xiaoxiao pulled the corner of Li Xin's clothes, looked at Li Xin pitifully, and his eyes were a little swollen from crying.
Li Xin squatted down, reached out and touched her head, and said softly: "Good girl, when you learn a thousand words, my brother will come back." ”
"Really?"
The little girl's big eyes sparkled.
Li Xin reached out and hugged her into his arms, then stood up and smiled, "When did my brother lie to you?" But you have to learn to write hard, the writing is good-looking, and the ugly writing doesn't count. ”
Zhong Xiaoxiao was held in Li Xin's arms, reached out and hugged Li Xin's head, and there was some milk in her voice: "Okay, I must follow Sister Cui to learn to write." ”
A smile appeared on Li Xin's face.
"Remember, when my brother is not in the capital, you have to listen to Sister Cui, she still has a lot of things to do on weekdays, you can't make her angry, okay?"
This little girl is a sensible girl who makes people feel distressed, so whether it is Li Xin or Cui Jiuniang, they all like her from the bottom of their hearts, after hearing Li Xin's words, the little girl nodded: "Okay, I must listen to Sister Cui." ”
To tell the truth, Li Xin's trip to southern Xinjiang was very dangerous.
He has been in this world for more than three months, and after such a long time of understanding the Pingnan Hou Mansion, as well as a conversation he had with Li Shen some time ago, Li Xin already has a general understanding of his "cheap scumbag".
This general of the Zhu State may be mean to describe him in the words indifferent and ruthless, but he is definitely not a good man and a woman, and if he touches his core interests in southern Xinjiang, he will never let himself leave southern Xinjiang alive.
What's more critical is that he has the ability to kill Li Xin without being questioned by the imperial court.
With the power of the Pingnan Hou Mansion in southern Xinjiang, he can easily let Li Xin "die unexpectedly", the death is very ingenious and reasonable, even if the entire capital knows that he is behind his back, the court will not turn its face because of a Li Xin and the Pingnan Hou Mansion.
At least not yet.
That's why Li Xin said those words to Cui Jiuniang, and asked the little girl to be obedient.
After accompanying the little girl in the proud building for two hours, it was completely dark, Li Xin carried her back to the room, and after a few words of advice to make her obedient, he was about to turn around and leave the proud building.
He usually goes in and out of the proud building, and in order not to attract attention, he usually walks through the back door.
At this time, in the back door of the proud building, there was a beautiful young woman dressed in white, who was Cui Jiuniang, the shopkeeper of the proud building.
The beautiful young woman gave Li Xin a blessing ceremony.
"Li Gongzi cherishes all the way."
She came to see Li Xin off.
In this era, the transportation conditions are extremely simple, and ordinary people may not be able to leave the house for a lifetime, so when a person wants to go far away, relatives and friends always have to send one away.
However, tomorrow, Li Xin is going to rush to southern Xinjiang with Ping Nanhou, and she will definitely not be able to come forward as a "ninth-rate" character in that kind of big scene, so she can only send Li Xin at this time, just to do her best.
Li Xin bent over at the young woman, and his tone was respectful: "In the future, there will be Sister Lao Cui." ”
Cui Jiuniang replied with a salute, and the big shopkeeper of the proud building glanced at Li Xin deeply, and his tone was a little complicated.
"Li Gongzi is a good person, it's a pity to die young, but you must live a good life."
Although he was inexplicably given a good person card, Li Xin knew that this woman's tone was full of kindness, and a smile appeared on his face.
"Sister Cui, wait for the younger brother to return to the capital, and then invite my sister to eat dumplings."
Cui Jiuniang smiled.
"Okay, sister is waiting for you to come back."
This is the first time she has called herself her sister in front of Li Xin.
In this world, of course, there are many filthy, a lot of darkness, a lot of smelly things and smelly people, but there are evil people who naturally have good people.
For Li Xin, Cui Jiuniang is a rare good person in the capital's nest of wicked people.
For Jiu Niang, Li Xin is a rare ray of sunshine in this dark world.
There is no love between two people.
Because of this, it is even more precious.
………………
After bidding farewell to the proud building, Li Xin returned to his yard, took a hot bath, and then began to prepare some things to bring with him when he went out.
First of all, Yu Linwei's sword and armor must be brought, Yu Linwei is the Son of Heaven's personal soldiers, and the equipment is much better than that of the border army.
Therefore, the quality of Yu Linwei's sword and armor is much better than that of the border army, and this kind of life-saving good thing must be bringed.
In addition to the sword armor, there were also close-fitting clothes, as well as some small things, all of which were packed into the baggage by Li Xin.
After packing up all these daily necessities, Li Xin fell into bed and fell into a deep sleep.
Before dawn the next day, he got up from the bed, stood up for a while, washed his face, changed into a cloth coat, and walked towards the south gate of the capital.
Yesterday, Chen Ju had already explained to Li Xin, and he would gather at the Nancheng Gate today, and then follow that Pingnanhou to Southern Xinjiang together.
Probably at the right time, Li Xin came to the south gate of the capital, at this time the day entered April, the sky was already bright, Li Xin rushed to the city gate, only to find that Li Shen had already arrived.
At this time, the general of the Pillar State was wearing a first-class military attache robe, riding on a big green horse, his body was straight, and he looked very majestic.
Behind him, there were about a hundred knights, all of them fierce.
These people are all subordinates of the Pingnan Hou Mansion.
Because the Pingnan army was in southern Xinjiang, the imperial court did not need to transfer additional troops to quell the rebellion, so this Pingnan Marquis only needed to go to southern Xinjiang with some troops.
When he saw Li Xin, who was dressed in civilian clothes, appeared at the gate of Nancheng, the general of the Zhuguo Kingdom did not change his expression, but he squinted his eyes slightly.
He didn't know what Li Xin was doing here.
Chen Ju told him about the military envoy, but he didn't tell him who the military envoy was.
Li Houye sat on the big horse, condescending.
"What are you going to do?"
More than one person has said that Li Xin and Li Shenchang are very similar, and at this time, the two of them are standing together, just like one person's youth and middle age, which looks very picturesque.
Li Xin's face was indifferent.
"On the orders of the emperor, he was appointed as the military envoy of the Southern Xinjiang Supervisor."
Li Shen's expression finally changed, he stroked his palm gently, and a somewhat stiff smile appeared on his face.
"Very good......
It's just that the general of the Pillar Kingdom only said two words, and before he could continue, he was interrupted by a crisp voice.
"Li Xin...!"
Li Xin and Li Shen turned their heads at the same time to look over, only to see a young girl riding a tall black horse, running towards the south city gate.
Because of his poor equestrian skills, this big black horse walked crookedly and was very unshapely.
Li Xin sighed and stepped forward to meet him.
"Your Highness, what are you doing here?"
The Ninth Princess climbed down from the horse with difficulty, then stood in front of Li Xin, and said a little breathlessly, "Come and send you a horse." ”
She held her head high and said, "Southern Xinjiang is so far away, shouldn't you want to walk?" ”
As she spoke, she stretched out her hand and pointed to a cloth bag hanging on the big black horse, and said mysteriously.
"This is the jerky I got from Brother Qi's house, and some dry food, you can keep it for the road to eat."
Li Xin looked at the Ninth Princess a little speechlessly.
It's not that I dislike her for being troublesome, it's just that Li Xin ......
You really can't ride a horse......
However, these foods are very useful, after all, following Li Shen all the way, the food will definitely not be too good.
He bowed his head slightly and smiled: "Thank you, Your Highness......"
Li Shen, who was not far away, saw this scene in his eyes, the general of the Zhu Kingdom was expressionless, and he didn't know what he was thinking in his heart.
But when the princess came, he still had to dismount to salute, and just as Li Shen turned over and dismounted, a slightly shrill voice suddenly came from the south city gate.
"Your Majesty has arrived at ————"
Every time the Marquis of Pingnan went out on an expedition, the Son of Chengde would personally go out of the city to see him off.
This time was no exception.
