Chapter 1,206: Everyone in Xin'du has gotten pink eye!
will never stop."Li Laosan reminisced about his escape from the north to Kyoto, sighing as he said..."Fourth Uncle and the village head were right. On our way to Junyang, we once softened our hearts...After this incident, Xindu became much quieter.
Many people say behind Li's family's back that they are cunning and kill without getting their hands dirty.
But if you don't reach out and covet, how would you be chopped!
And that wasn't all. Perhaps the Emperor felt he had taken advantage of the Li family, having snatched away a good portion of their business. So, another imperial decree was sent down to Quanzhou.
Jia An was still in her original position at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Jia Ren and Jia Li also became county magistrates near Quanzhou, and there was no mention of them abandoning their posts.
That's the inspector, Mr. Wen, who used to be always out on patrol. He's been given a sinecure now and will spend his days traveling and enjoying himself, occasionally submitting a brief report to the capital about the customs and scenery of the south.
As for Li Lao'er and Jia Yin, not a word was mentioned. Yet no one doubted that they had been stripped of their titles.
The Lee family brothers all had official positions, these two sons definitely also retained their titles!
The entire New City, because of this edict, all became people with red-eye disease.
Such grace, truly unprecedented throughout history!
Jealous Jealous!
Jealous Jealous!
But envy and jealousy are useless, after all, no one can go back to decades ago to take in the prince who was still a beggar!
However, the common people on the streets and alleys spoke highly of the Crown Prince.
The monarch is the heaven of the people. Such a loving and righteous monarch is the good fortune of the commoners!
After seven or eight days, they arrived in Quanzhou and settled down. It was then that the Li family received this imperial decree.
It has to be said, the prince considers Zhou Xiang.
The imperial decree was first delivered to the Hai Lan Army and placed before General Tang Lao.
Then General Tang informed the Li family, fearing they might misunderstand.
Li Lao'er and Jia Yi, representing the Li family, received the imperial decree, of course, with joy.
They do not crave power. Compared to wealth and honor, family peace is the most important thing to them.
But men like the brothers of Jiarong, who are in their prime, having mastered both literature and martial arts, it would be best if they could continue to serve the imperial court and benefit the people.
However, this happiness is limited.
Because the few people who "disappeared" on Gushan Mountain, still haven't appeared...
Although Mu Xu believed in Jia Yin's abilities, he was also quick-witted, brave, and had Zhang Shenyi to help him.
But there's still a one in ten thousand, who dares to guarantee
That was a battlefield, where thousands fought to the death, swords and blades were merciless...
Lao Li diligently ate a lot at each meal and then sat by the door, but she was still visibly losing weight rapidly.
All people were automatically divided into teams, marching out two hundred li to guard all roads north leading to Quanzhou...
One afternoon, a horse-drawn carriage sped down the road. A burly man on the carriage's front seat gnawed on a chicken leg and whipped the horses every now and then.
There was a faint smell of alcohol in the carriage, mingled with the bickering and coquettish whispers of young men and women.
The boy complained, "Oh no, I told you we should put it here, but you wouldn't listen! You lost!"
The little girl pouted, "No way, no how! We agreed that you'd take the fall for me while I played chess. Come on, look up so my godfather can lecture you a few times about your silly mistakes!"
There were also the low chuckles of middle-aged people, occasionally muttering, "Favorsitism."
In a short while, the carriage arrived at the town gate. The big man suggested, "Shall we get off and have a bowl of iced tea and rest for a bit"
But the people in the carriage remained silent. A man had already dashed out of the tea stall by the roadside, shouting at the top of his lungs, "Fourth Uncle, Fourth Uncle!"
The burly man turned around and responded with surprise.
"Oh, Jiaren, what are you doing here You look so thin and pale. Have you been suffering"
Needless to say, the burly man was Li Lao Si. The carriage carried the half-drunk Zhang Shenyi, as well as the melodious sounds of Jia Yin and Mu Xu playing a chess match against the Prince.
As the carriages opened, everyone jumped out.
Jia Ren only glanced and tears welled up in his eyes.
Not one is missing, and no one is short an arm or a leg!
"Good, good, everyone's back!"
Jia Yin rushed forward with concern, grabbing her elder brother's arm.
The once elegant young master was now tanned and thin, his clothes covered in dust, and his hair disheveled. It was clear he had been out for a long time.
"Big brother, how long have you been waiting here"
"It wasn't long, only half a month. Our family was worried, so we split up to welcome you all." Jia Ren said this, carefully looking at his sister, his voice choked with emotion.
"All you guys are useless! Why are you, a little girl, overthinking things so much You're supposed to protect the family by moving south, not running off to Jiangbei to save people..."
"Brother," Jia Yin wouldn't allow her brother to blame himself, quickly smiling and saying, "Everything has passed, besides, the capable should do more! Now that our family is doing well, I didn't suffer for nothing."
Jia Ren raised his head, rubbed his sister's head, then wiped away his tears and turned to bow to the elders.
Lao He and the others who came with Jia Ren were also full of excitement, stepping forward to greet him.
Their initial trip to the southwest was intended to deliver gifts to the young master and facilitate correspondence.
To his surprise, he not only encountered the Mi Le sect causing chaos but also protected the young master as they retreated to Quanzhou.
To be honest, it's a good thing the Southwest Border Army took action and dealt with the Miaolei Cult early on. The county town's people are safe and sound. Otherwise, the young master wouldn't want to leave.
He almost knocked the young master unconscious and hijacked his carriage...
Mu Xu was alert, seeing that there were still others in the teahouse watching them. He urged, "Let's get in the carriage and head out. There are too many people here, and it's not safe."
Everyone agreed and quickly got into the car, disappearing from the sight of onlookers.
After walking for ten or so miles, and leaving enough men to escort them, Lao Hei and the others dispersed, going their separate ways to send messages.
Fortunately, the Li family had many children, with lots of boys. Along with Zhimin and Xiujie and Liu Yang, it was almost two teams of people!
Mu Xu went to great lengths to marry a wife.
He especially snatched a horse and ran ahead to Quanzhou to send a message.
So when the group, who had been traveling day and night, arrived home, every single person from young to old was waiting for them at the doorstep.
Jiayin jumped out of the carriage and was immediately hugged tightly by her grandmother.
"Little Funi, Little Funi, you're finally back! Grandma thought... sniffle... silly girl, don't ever go adventuring again, Grandma's scared!"
Jiayin was heartbroken by the pain of being poked by her grandmother's bones, she endured the tears and comforted the old woman.
"Grandma, your granddaughter is amazing! I said I'd come back safely, and I did! From now on, even if you chase me out, I won't leave. I'll stay with Grandma forever!"
As she spoke, her tears still streamed down her face.
Tao Hongying pulled her husband's hand, looking him up and down. Seeing that he was unharmed, she smiled foolishly, showing a row of white teeth. She lost interest in pitying him and turned to hug her daughter instead.
"You little bitch, if you dare run out again, I'll break your legs!"
"Alright, alright, I'm just your daughter! You can scold me however you like!" Jia Yin wiped her tears and smiled sweetly at her grandmother and mother.
Li Zhensheng and Li Lao'er, Li Lao San, and others patted Li Lao Si's shoulder, then carefully examined the Hou Ye. They all looked like survivors after a robbery, completely relieved!
Everything is fake, family being safe and alive is the only truth!
Just as things were bustling, Dr. Zhang yawned and got out of the car, grumbling, "Oh, this old geezer of mine, nobody likes me. I've been back for ages, and no one even acknowledges me!"
"Haha, what did Uncle Zhang say You're our guardian angel."
"That's right, without Uncle Zhang here, our drinking has no flavor!"
Everyone hurriedly coaxed the old man, barely getting him to huff haughtily.
Still, Jia Yin has been soothing "old children" for many years, with rich experience.
She raised her voice and exclaimed, “We're able to return safely this time all thanks to Grandpa Zhang! Without Grandpa Zhang, I fear we would have crossed the River of Forgetfulness! Come on, let's go inside. Let's cook some delicious dishes and pour some wine for Grandpa Zhang so he can tell us all about it!”
"Really Really The old man is simply amazing!"
"This is a big thank you to Uncle Zhang, I said that Uncle Zhang's medical poison is the best in the world!"
Everyone climbed up the ladder, and finally coaxed the old man to proudly lift his chin and curl his mouth upward.
As they talked, everyone entered the courtyard together. The moment the gate closed, it was filled with laughter and cheers!
Today's update is here ~~n the officials immediately shrunk their necks and dared not speak another word.Soon, the Emperor and several important ministers had all read the imperial edict.The Emperor pondered for a moment and...
