After explaining these trivial things, it was almost afternoon, and the young eunuch Xiao was so anxious that his forehead was sweaty, and he was busy back and forth, urging him to go on the road.

Finally, in the afternoon, the convoy set off slowly.

Zhao Jia stood in front of Li Xin's car and bent deeply at Li Xin.

"The capital is not as good as the southwest, Hou Ye must take care."

Li Xin returned the favor.

"Brother You'an should also take care of himself in the southwest, if there is anything to do, don't just leave and go to the capital to find me."

"Everything is outside the body, and preserving life is the foundation."

Li Xin said in a deep voice: "In terms of talent, Brother You'an is much better than me, and I believe that Brother You'an can handle the affairs of the southwest." ”

Zhao Jia took a deep breath.

"Since Master Hou believes in me, I will do my best."

……

In this way, Li Xin finally embarked on the return journey back to Beijing.

He left the capital after the Lantern Festival in the second year of Taikang, and now it is the end of April in the third year of Taikang, and it will be May in a few days, and the happiness is that he has been in the southwest for nearly a year and a half.

This is not a long time, but it is not a short period of time.

For the war of this era, a year and a half can only be regarded as a very short war, after all, it will take half a year to go back and forth on the road, but for Li Xin, this is already a long time.

After all, he has only been in this world for more than three years, and in these three years, his time in the southwest will account for a small half.

Personally, Li Xin doesn't like this kind of battle very much.

He prefers to tease his daughter-in-law in the capital, and then hide at home to get some delicious food, and teach Zhong Xiaoxiao to write in the backyard study.

He is not a person with big ambitions, and a large part of the reason why he has come to where he is now step by step is because of one person.

Thinking of this, Li Xin poked his head out and glanced at the carriage in the middle of the convoy.

In that carriage is the source of all this, Li Xin's biological father Li Shen.

And this source, if nothing else, will die under the butcher's knife of Taikang Tianzi after returning to the capital.

If it weren't for him, it wasn't for the Pingnan Hou Mansion, Li Xin would have left the capital by now, took his sister Zhong Xiaoxiao with him, did some small business, and then lived the life of a rich man.

By chance, he has come to this day.

Even now, Li Xin's goal is not particularly big, he just wants to protect the current good life and protect the people around him in the Jing'an Hou Mansion.

Thinking of this, Li Xin took his eyes off Li Shen's carriage and looked in the direction of the capital.

Whether he can continue to live a good life is not in himself, but in the person on the emperor's throne in the capital, if the people on the emperor's throne can't tolerate him one day, then his current goal is no longer a small goal.

The Marquis of Jing'an closed his eyes and muttered to himself.

"I hope you can understand that I did something, not to do anything to you, but to be good with you."

……

The convoy moved slowly, because the carriage was not easy to walk, and the speed was much slower than that of riding a horse, Xiao Shaojian was so anxious that his forehead sweated several times, and he urged him to go on the road early every morning.

In addition to urging him to go on the road, he also had to kowtow to the waste prince every morning to say goodbye, and then ask the doctor to check the pulse of His Royal Highness King Qin.

On the morning of the third day, the carriage stopped abruptly in the middle of its journey.

Young Eunuch Xiao was even more anxious, and after jumping off the carriage, he rushed to the front of the line, and without looking, he said to the forbidden army in front of him: "Why did you stop again?" ”

"It's been delayed, Your Majesty will investigate it, can you afford to be guilty!"

In a hurry, his voice became shrill.

A forbidden soldier looked embarrassed, walked up to Xiao Zheng, bowed his head and said, "Grandpa Xiao, it's not that we don't want to go, it's that someone is blocking the way." ”

Xiao Zheng followed the direction of the forbidden army's finger, and sure enough, he saw a middle-aged woman with messy hair and dirty clothes, standing in the middle of the official road and blocking the way.

Young Eunuch Xiao was furious.

"A woman, just stopped you forbidden soldiers?"

"Throw her aside, and we'll get on our way!"

The forbidden soldier lowered his voice and said something in Xiao Zheng's ear, Xiao Shao's face changed greatly, and he just wanted to say something, but he felt that something was not right, and said in a low voice: "Look at her, don't let her walk around." ”

"Yes."

Xiao Zheng turned around, trotted all the way to Li Xin's carriage, bowed his head to Li Xin's carriage and said, "Master Hou." ”

Li Xin lifted the curtain, glanced at this young eunuch Xiao, and said with a smile: "Father-in-law Xiao, what's wrong?" ”

Xiao Zheng bowed his head and said, "Master Hou, please get off the car, the slave and maid have something to discuss." ”

Li Xin turned around, patted Xiao Zhao Fang's shoulder, and said lightly: "Wait for me here, don't go down." ”

Zhao Fang nodded obediently.

Li Xin lifted the curtain, walked down, and after walking in front of Xiao Zheng, he smiled: "Father-in-law Xiao, what made you stop the convoy?" ”

Xiao was calm and whispered in Li Xin's ear: "Master Hou, there is a middle-aged woman blocking the road in front. ”

The Marquis of Jing'an said with a smile: "We have more than 600 people, and we were blocked by a woman? ”

Xiao Zheng coughed and said, "Yes... The wife of the thief leader of the Pingnan Army. ”

Li Xin's face changed, he put his hands behind his back, and said, "Where is it?" ”

"Right at the front of the line."

Li Xin nodded and said, "It seems that she has slipped through the net, I'll go see her." ”

Li Xin is much taller than Xiao Zheng, and he has been practicing boxing for three years, and his body is also strong, and he walked a few steps quickly, leaving Xiao Zheng behind.

It didn't take long for Li Xin to be at the front of the team and saw this somewhat embarrassed lady of the Pingnan Hou Mansion...... Lady Jade.

Li Xin took a deep breath and walked in front of her with no expression on his face.

"If I'm not mistaken, General Li should have sent you to a safe place, why didn't Mrs. Li know to cherish her life and want to come back to die by herself?"

Madame Yu glanced up at Li Xin, then reached out to straighten her somewhat disheveled hair, and a trace of trembling was hidden in her calm voice.

"I'm looking for my husband."

A sneer appeared on Li Xin's face.

"What a loving couple!"

Mrs. Yu looked at Li Xin, gritted her teeth and said: "When you entered Beijing, I asked people to drive you out, and I also sent someone to burn your house, if you want to kill me, Hou Ye is your biological father!" ”

"Killing a father with a son will enter the way of cattle in the future!"

The Marquis of Jing'an was expressionless.

"When Mrs. Li kicked me out, she didn't think about such a relationship."

"This relationship has long been broken, and my grudge with the Li family has almost been repaid, and now it's not that I want to kill him, it's the law of the country that wants to kill him."

"As for you, Mrs. Li."

Li Xin said lightly: "Li Shen didn't want anything, he was willing to go to Beijing, he wanted to die, but he still saved the lives of you and another person, and you are coming back to seek death now, he should be very uncomfortable." ”

Mrs. Yu choked up and said: "Chun'er was killed by you, and Master Hou will also be killed by you, what's the point of me living!" ”

"I want to see Master Hou!"

Her hair was disheveled, and there was a lot of mud on her body, and it was clear that she had come all the way from where she had been hiding, and her hysterical screams were quite pitiful.

Jing Anhou was expressionless.

"Your son Li Chun, you killed yourself, what does it matter to me?"

"When you run to me like this, you are not afraid that I will kill you with a knife?"
