Thinking of this, Xiao Chu felt a sense of frustration.
After all, I had traveled through time, and I felt like I was powerless to turn the world around. This made Xiao Chu a little depressed.
However, when she heard Qingyi say that Xiao Tai's life is worry-free, Xiao Chu gradually let go of his heart.
In fact, the main purpose of his trip to the capital this time was to understand the situation in the capital. If possible, he would help him with advice. However, the situation in the capital is quite clear now, and even if he goes there, it will only add some sacrifices.
Since this is the case, it may not be of much significance if you go to the capital again. However, the situation seems not so bad. At least, Xiao Tai's life is worry-free.
"It seems that my strength is too weak!" Xiao Chu sighed in his heart.
Qingyi stared at Xiao Chu's eyes, waiting for Xiao Chu's decision.
After a long time, Xiao Chu sighed and said, "Forget it, Brother Qingyi, even if I go to the capital, it will not help the overall situation. On the contrary, it may cause trouble to my grandfather, so I will not go."
After hearing what Xiao Chu said, Qingyi showed a sense of relaxation. He knew that Xiao Chu was a little guy with a strong personality. It was difficult to change his ideas about what he decided, but now he could hear Xiao Chu.
Saying this made Qingyi relieve her breath.
"Brother Qingyi, let's have a good rest today and we will set off for Dingyuan County tomorrow." Xiao Chuyan said.
Qingyi nodded repeatedly. He really didn't expect Xiao Chu to make such a correct decision, and he felt much more relaxed.
Xiao Chu also made a secret decision in his heart that he must constantly strengthen his strength in the future so that he can protect the people he cares about when facing threats.
The next day, Xiao Chu and Qing Yi embarked on the way back to Dingyuan County.
On the way, they also met the monk Xingkong who returned to the Fairy Temple to report to his master.
Xiao Chu expressed his apology to Monk Xingkong for leaving without saying goodbye, and then explained that he would return to Dingyuan County with Qingyi, which made Monk Xingkong feel relieved.
With Qingyi's escort, Xiao Chu also rejected Senior Brother Xingkong's idea of continuing to escort, and directly asked him to return to the Fairy Temple to report the matter to Master Xuanlong.
Master Xingkong heard Xiao Chu's explanation and stopped insisting. He simply walked on his own and embarked on his own journey.
A few days later, Xiao Chu and Qingyi returned to Dingyuan County. This time they were riding a carriage? So the speed of goodbye is naturally not comparable to riding a horse? And with Qingyi's escort, we were at peace all the way.
No accident happened.
Send Xiao Chu safely back to Dingyuan County? Qingyi said goodbye directly? Because she was anxious to return to the capital to help Xiao Tai, she didn't even have to eat. She rushed back to the capital with a quick horse.
Before leaving? Xiao Chu also reminded Qingyi that if there was anything, he would notify him as soon as possible.
Time flies? Two more months passed in a blink of an eye. During these two months, Xiao Chu also sent people to inquire about things related to the capital every day, but the news was basically the same.
The funeral of Empress Dowager Wende was held as scheduled? He was buried with Emperor Taizu and Huangling? Apart from this, no other news came out. Facing this kind of news, Xiao Chu arrived was not too worried? After all, there was no
News is the best news.
At the same time, in the past two months, Xiao Chu also started to open the semicolons of two Yuelaijus, called Xilaiju and Fulaiju. They opened in Chongming Prefecture and Huaiyuan Province respectively. Since its opening, it has been
The crowd is overcrowded, and it can be said that you make money every day.
Xiao Chu was extremely satisfied with this and took advantage of the trend to launch the more popular stewed mushrooms with stewed tummy chicken and chicken. These two dishes have been launched. Countless literati and poets flocked to them and rushed over to try them out, and they all came to these two dishes.
The dishes were praised endlessly, and they wrote poems and inscriptions to praise them.
The Xiao family also went from being a civilian family to a famous big family in Dingyuan County. With such abundant financial resources, they could be called the richest man in Dingyuan County.
During these two months, Xiao Chu still went to private schools every day to study ancient classics with his husband, which made Xiao Chu intoxicated. The fat man Zhang Fushun was still so greedy, and he pestered Xiao Chu to Yue almost every day
Xiao Chu was helpless when he came to the center to eat and drink, but he was not disgusted. After all, his first pot of gold was obtained from Zhang Yuanwai's house, so he naturally did not hesitate to Zhang Yuanwai.
Dingyuan County also erected a monument for Lord Chen Yuan's year to praise Lord Chen's contribution to Dingyuan County. Since Chen Yuan's year of death, no new county magistrate has been introduced to Dingyuan County, and everything is handled by the master.
In the Xiao family courtyard, the sound of endorsement came from the yard and paused from time to time. It was obvious that the endorsement was not very skilled, and this person was naturally Xiao Chang'an.
Whenever Xiao Changan's endorsement pauses, a burst of laughter from a child will come, and this sound naturally comes from Xiao Cheng.
"Haha, Dad, you were wrong again, this is wrong..." Xiao Cheng quickly pointed out Xiao Changan's mistakes with the classics.
Xiao Chang'an smiled indifferently: "Reading scriptures and reciting history is a pleasant spirit. As for right or wrong? That doesn't matter. The ancient sages would forgive us."
After the words came, Xiao Changan picked up a glass of wine and drank it.
Liu looked at the father and son in the yard and smiled, which was quite interesting.
The Xiao family is already rich now, so naturally they no longer use Liu and others to go out for needlework. Everything in the mansion can be managed by servants, but Liu does not
I am so used to it. After all, I have already come from hard days, so I still have to do some things myself.
A confident smile appeared on the face of the old man in Mayi, and then he slowly said: "This kid, I not only know that you are not from Zhengjia Village, but also where you come from."
As soon as this statement came out, Xiao Chu was shocked!
Even Xiang Haofei, who was standing beside him, became extremely surprised. Isn’t Xiao Chu from Zhengjia Village?
Then, Xiang Haofei turned to Xiao Chu's direction from the river, as if waiting for Xiao Chu's speech. However, Xiang Haofei saw that Xiao Chu's face was full of surprise, and even himself was
It seems that he hasn't discovered it. Could it be that the old man is telling the truth? Does this boy Xiao Chu come from Zhengjia Village?
After a moment, Xiao Chu came back from his shock, quickly spoke and asked the old man in Mai: "Although I am a bit rude to speak like this, I also want to ask the old man, where did I come from?
”
The old man in Mai laughed and said, "Haha, the little guy is quite sensible. I have already said so clearly that I have to test my true feelings. I am really brave!"
Xiao Chuyi smiled, and then he did not avoid the stolen gaze of the old man in Mai, so he was intertwined with the old man in Mai, as if he was waiting for the old man in Mai's answer.
"Well, it seems that you won't be relieved if I don't show you one thing." The old man in Mai's face was full of calm benefits, then turned around, looked at Xiao Chu for a while, and then said: "
I have eight words here. You can know the truth or falsehood of what I said."
Xiao Chu nodded, then looked in the direction of the old man in Mai, looking at the scrupulous look.
After a while, the old man in Mai slowly spoke, "The son of the moth, the place of purple qi."
Xiang Haofei, who was standing beside him, was confused when he heard the old man in Mai's clothes saying, "The son of the moth? What does it mean? Where is the purple Qi land? Why have you never heard of it in the world?"
Unlike Xiang Haofei's doubts, Xiao Chu's body was a little stiff at this time, immersed in the eight words of the old man in mai, with an unexpected expression on his face.
Is this old man so amazing?
He could tell his identity and origin by just a brief look? Is this really a god in the world? At this moment, Xiao Chu felt extremely curious in his heart, and even a kind of kneeling down to become a disciple immediately
impulse.
The son of the old man Ma Yi just mentioned refers to the adopted son, which also refers to Xiao Chu's true identity, that is, Xiao Chang'an's adopted son. Xiao Chu also understands the place of purple Qi, so he naturally refers to it.
Capital City!
I remember when I first came here, wasn't it in Xiao Mansion? If I followed this old saying, I was really a person from the capital, which coincided with the purple place mentioned by the old man in Mai.
.
Xiao Chu thought for a long time, then quickly saluted the old man in Mai, and then said, "The old man is simply a god!"
After hearing Xiao Chu's voice, the old man in Mayi smiled with satisfaction and said, "Little guy, are you convinced?"
Xiao Chu nodded immediately and said gratefully: "Thank you for the church. It turns out that the senior has such skills, which is simply incredible and amazing!"
Or, the governor appointed by the court is already on the way? But this doesn’t seem to be reasonable. You should know that Xiao Tai always has to hand over with the new governor!
In any case, Lord Chen couldn't understand why Xiao Tai suddenly returned to Beijing at this time, so he had to control himself not to think about that direction! However, he also felt a bad premonition in his heart.
Not long after, the subordinates sent by Lord Chen came back to report.
"Sir, that child prodigy is not here. After many inquiries, I found that someone had seen him leave the city with Lord Anguo Duke in the morning."
After hearing this, Lord Chen was shocked!
He thought to himself: "Can it be possible that Xiao Tai has really returned to Beijing?"
At this time, Lord Chen felt the more he thought about it.
If Xiao Tai was able to return to Beijing with his men, then now he even brought the prodigy with him, and it was very likely that he had returned to Beijing for so long. After all, the prodigy is the person the emperor wants to summon!
Of course, it is not ruled out that Xiao Tai will take the prodigy to do something ulterior motive!
However, their greatest possibility is to return to Beijing. After all, the rebellion of the Three Gods Sect has basically ended, and there are some small matters. Xiao Tai is likely to return to Beijing at this time, so he can return to Beijing and take the lead.
Secondly, we can avoid causing trouble for ourselves!
He is really an old fox.
Mr. Chen's eyes were full of annoyance in this matter, and he felt like he had been fooled by Xiao Tai once.
However, after thinking about it, the emperor asked Xiao Tai to temporarily handle matters in Huaiyuan Province. Now that Xiao Tai has suddenly left, it should be considered an order to resist the order?
Thinking of this, Lord Chen was a little excited. If he studied Xiao Tai's book for this reason, he would probably cause him a lot of trouble.
"Come, we will set off to return to the capital tomorrow! I have been staying in this remote area for a long time. Anyway, the imperial edict has been passed on, so we cannot decide what will happen in the future." Lord Chen said slowly.
"Yes!" someone outside quickly replied.
At this time, a treacherous look appeared in Lord Chen's eyes. After returning to Beijing, he could take credit in front of the Prime Minister. Then he would tell him how he suppressed Xiao Tai and cause trouble for them.
I think the Prime Minister will be happy. At that time, will my career be smooth all the way?
......
Let’s talk about Xiao Chu, Xiao Tai and others heading towards the direction of the capital. Due to the urgent matter, everyone ran away and did not rest anyway. It was not until it was dark that they arrived in a town to rest.
This place is called Dongde Town. Xiao Chufan talked to the boss during a conversation.
"Little guy, I'm tired after rushing for a day?" Xiao Tai asked.
Xiao Chu shook his head and smiled, saying, "I'm not tired."
In fact, Xiao Chu had nothing to do with this journey. He had never rode a horse in his previous life. Now he is sitting on the horse, but he is very leisurely, just a bit bumpy.
However, since Xiao Chu came here, he has never seen what the capital looks like. He has a little more anticipation for the place he is about to arrive.
Moreover, when I arrived in the capital, I seemed to be able to see my biological mother immediately, and a complicated feeling arose in my heart.
Xiao Chu didn't know whether to recognize his biological mother immediately. If he recognized him, he might cause great trouble to himself, and he might even be locked in a small dark room.
Then, how should I spend this long night?
But if we don’t recognize each other, is it not fair to Jiang?
Thinking of this, Xiao Chu was in a tangle...
"What's wrong, little guy, you seem to be feeling a little uneasy?" Xiao Tai asked when he saw Xiao Chu's expression was a little abnormal.
Xiao Chu quickly shook his head and said, "It's nothing. Maybe it's because he has never been so long. Besides, it's inevitable that he misses his relatives a little for the first time."
Xiao Tai smiled and said, "Little guy, you will leave home when you grow up. By the way, have you written to your family?"
"Well, when Brother Yue returned to Dingyuan County in the morning, I had already asked Brother Yue to bring a letter back, explaining that the emperor was going to summon me to the capital." Xiao Chu said.
After hearing this, Xiao Tai nodded and looked at Xiao Tai, his eyes full of kindness.
"Haha, little guy, I used to be the same as you, and I was reluctant to leave my home just now. At that time, we followed Taizu to fight, and we would go wherever the army went. The longest time has not been home for about nine years."
