Chapter 250
When Jing Haoying rushed to the capital, he happened to meet Cheng Shi and Xiao Yuanyi at the gate of the city.
These two people and a group of people are waiting in line at the gate of the city,

The two of them didn't have many entourages, but there were a lot of things, there were several large cars, and they lined up in a long row.

Jing Haoying rode forward to say hello,
"General Cheng! Are you returning to Kyoto?"

Cheng Shi and Xiao Yuanyi were also very happy when they saw Jing Haoying, and they said it was a coincidence.
It turned out that the two were a little worried after not seeing their daughter for so many years. The second daughter-in-law, Ge Shi, was not a fuel-efficient lamp. She was afraid that her family would mess things up, so she drove all night and arrived several days earlier than the army, just in time to run into Jing Haoying. ,
After joking a few times, Jing Haoying looked around and asked:
"Hey, General Cheng, why don't you see General Wan and Qiqi?

Could it be that they didn't come back this time? "

"No, they are behind, they have a lot of people and things, they are procrastinating,
My Song'er and the others are also behind,

As for Yuan Yi and I, we wanted to see my family sooner, so we hurried back first!

Hey, I don't know what my family looks like now, whether it looks like her father and me! "He said it in a sad tone.

But it made Jing Haoying and Xiao Yuanyi amused, as for Cheng Shi's big arms, round waist, fat head and big ears, if he resembled him, what would the little girl look like?

They were quite familiar with each other, and Xiao Yuanyi lost the restraint at the beginning, and directly reached out to pat Cheng Shi, and said angrily:

"If you look like you, you can still get married!"

Several people laughed when they heard it.

At this time, Kyoto is very prosperous, and many people are queuing up to enter the city. Just now, Cheng Shi and Xiao Yuanyi also lined up again. After all, their official positions are not high, and they do not have such great privileges.

But Jing Haoying didn't want to queue here anymore, he had a special token, which was given to him by his uncle, and he handed the token to an attendant, motioning him to call the door.

The attendant took the token and found the guard at the gate of the city. The guard looked at the token and quickly led a few soldiers to disperse the crowd, making room for a jump, and ran to the Jing Haoying horse to salute. Respectfully.

This is the privilege,
Cheng Shi and the others didn't have anything to dislike. Instead, they took it for granted. This was a normal thought in this period. Classes were clearly defined.
After a few people entered the city, Cheng Shi said enviously while walking:
"It's still good for the prince's face,
My old Cheng just talked to the guard for a long time, but he didn't give way to me! "

Jing Haoying smiled and said:
"Haha, it's not because of my face, it's the customs clearance token given to me by His Majesty back then, otherwise, they would be so proud to give me this face!"

This is true, sometimes the prince’s face is not always easy in the capital, maybe some people deliberately make it difficult for the prince to show his loyalty to the emperor, of course, he is the emperor’s only nephew , this is a bit of an exception, no one is so closed-eyed.

When Cheng Shi heard this, he was even more envious. He thought it was better to be a relative of the emperor. He could easily take out the token given by the emperor. How could an ordinary family like himself struggle to see the emperor.

Several people walked and talked, Cheng Shi suddenly thought of something and said:

"By the way, son, General Ling Buyi led the former army to enter the city first, do you know about this?"

"I don't know, I came a little late, I didn't see it!"

"Oh, you didn't see it. His Majesty personally sent Cao Changshi to announce the decree. I am so powerful. It seems that General Ling will have to be promoted again this time!"

Wen Yanjing Haoying glanced at his mouth, this cheap uncle still spoils this kid so much,
Ling Buyi's 'uncle' Huo Chong was the emperor's brother-in-law. Huo Chong's family died in battle. Ling Buyi's 'nephew' was the only bloodline.

Moreover, the relationship between the two families has been very good since childhood, even my own mother always called Huo Chong a brother when she was a child.

So not only the emperor, but also his own mother looked at Ling Buyi differently.
The reason why the original owner didn't want to see Ling Busu was also willing in this regard. In short, there are many reasons why he hates Ling Busu. It's as if the original owner's obsessions have dissipated,
A few people walked and chatted,

It happened that Jing Haoying returned to Prince Jing's mansion and returned to Shi Shi's house on the way, so he didn't need to separate at all, just walked together,

……

While Jing Haoying, Cheng Shi and others were walking and chatting,
Over there, Ling Buyi didn't go back to the palace to receive the title, but went to the countryside to arrest the suspects who stole and sold arms.
That person was none other than Cheng Shi's own uncle. This old boy was greedy for money and lust. He followed others to steal and sell arms, passing them off as good ones. It was no fun. He knew someone was going to arrest him, so he hid himself in the haystack.
The heroine Cheng Shaoshang didn't want to be implicated. Besides, she didn't have any feelings for Uncle Dong, so she immediately pointed out his hiding place and helped Ling Buyi catch the suspect.
At this time, it is important to conceal relatives. If relatives are guilty, they should also conceal each other. If you do not report or testify, you will not be guilty. On the contrary, if you report, you will be charged with guilt.

It sounds unbelievable, but this is true in this era, and not only in this era, but also in many dynasties before and after, and many of them were written into the law. Until the "Criminal Law" of the Republic of China, it was still stipulated that relatives who hid criminals could be punished with a lighter punishment.

Therefore, the normal human nature at this time is to cover up and conceal each other.
For Cheng Shaoshang's deeds, Ling Buyi was very curious, but he didn't sit still, he was also a kind-hearted person who wanted to take the blame for Cheng Shaoshang's crime, he hated those who robbed and sold arms, and wished everyone They all help report it.

However, it is inevitable that he has a deep impression of Cheng Shaoshang as a "maverick"!

……

Over there, Jing Haoying was still walking and chatting with Cheng Shi and the others,

When approaching Cheng's mansion, Cheng Shi saw a dim sum shop by the side of the road, knowing that his wife liked it, he wanted to go there and buy some, when he suddenly saw that Jing Haoying was there, he held back for the time being, after all, there were outsiders around , he is still a bit measured.

Soon everyone came to the gate of Cheng's mansion, and Jing Haoying knew from a simple look at the gate, the mansion was not big, at most it was a three-entry mansion, it was considered a middle-class man's house,

After all, Cheng Shi himself is not a big official, so it is not bad to have this house.

Seeing Jing Haoying sizing up, Xiao Yuanyi smiled and said:
"The shabby house makes the prince laugh!"

Cheng Shi also said beside him:
"Yes, yes, but we'll just..."

Seeing her mother-in-law and sister-in-law Ge Shi going out again, Xiao Yuanyi quickly interrupted Cheng Shi and said in a low voice:
"Aunt Jun and the others are here!"

Jing Haoying pretended not to hear what Cheng Shi said, and followed what Xiao Yuanyi said just now with a smile:
"A deity makes a mountain, not its altitude.

Water does not have to be deep.

Si is a shabby room, but Wu Dexin.

General Cheng and his wife are very wise and courageous people, wherever they live, they are full of splendor! "

The two were very happy when they heard it, and they were about to say something.

There was a hoarse-like howl,

"My son Dalang, my son Dalang, you are back! My son..." Accompanied by howling, an old woman with a big arm and a round waist rushed over.

Seeing this, Cheng Shi and Xiao Yuanyi didn't bother to talk to Jing Haoying, so they hurriedly got off their horses to greet them.

Seeing the situation, Jing Haoying got off his horse with dignity and took two steps forward.

This old woman was dressed almost like Wanqiqi, and even more earthy than Wanqiqi. The big thick gold chain and the gold hairpin on her head seemed to be stuck on it like a golden stick, and her hands were The red ones and the green ones are full of precious stones, but Wanqiqi is young and beautiful anyway, this one is...

The old woman patted Cheng Shi while hugging him, and cried:

"Son, it's been more than ten years, but you are back!"

The old woman was quite strong, with a hulking back, and she looked no less than Cheng Shi. She slapped Cheng Shi's body with a bang, bang bang, and the armor trembled wildly. , obviously suffered a lot,

Both Jing Haoying and Xiao Yuanyi couldn't bear it, Jing Haoying smiled softly at Xiao Yuanyi:
"General Cheng is alright, he didn't suffer internal injuries just after returning home!"

Xiao Yuanyi and her mother-in-law didn't deal with it either, but at least they knew that the family ugliness should not be publicized, so they suppressed a smile and said:
"The world laughed,

Aunt Jun lived in the country all the time before, so it was inevitable that she was a bit vulgar..."

Jing Haoying quickly waved his hands and said with a smile:

"Understood, understood, if His Majesty did not overthrow Emperor Li, we would all be living in the countryside, almost the same!"

At this time, Cheng Shi also pulled Cheng's mother over. Cheng's mother's attitude towards Xiao Yuanyi was very ordinary. When she saw her, she just said coldly and came back. It might as well be Jing Haoying, probably because Jing Haoying was dressed well. , said with a smile:

"This son is...?"

Cheng Shi hastily introduced:
"Mother, this is my good friend in the northwest, Prince Jing's son, Your Highness Jing Haoying!" Looking at Jing Haoying again, he said:
"My son, this is my mother!"

Jing Haoying quickly saluted and said:

"I've met the old lady. General Cheng is brave and courageous, and can make good decisions. I think it's the old lady who taught me well!"

Cheng's mother trembled all over when she heard the laughter, she was willing to be praised by others, not to mention that he has such a high status, and he is the son of a prince. It seems to me that my son is really powerful, and he can make friends with such big men.

"Oh, it turns out that he is the eldest son of the prince's family,
I can really talk, I am not an old man, I am boasting, I have educated my family since I was a child..."

Speaking of this, Cheng's mother didn't continue, staring at Jing Haoying's waist for a while before saying:

"Oh, such a big black pearl? It's bigger than the one worn by the old lady Wan next door! How much does it cost?" As she spoke, her eyes lit up, she wanted to compare everything with old lady Wan, old lady Wan She had been coveting that pearl for a long time, but now that she saw something even bigger than that pearl, she couldn't look away immediately.

Jing Haoying looked down, and it turned out to be the pearl inlaid on the waist belt. This thing can be cultivated artificially in later generations, and it is almost a rotten street stuff. I really don’t think there is anything precious about it.
But these days, this is a rare item, and I remember that this was a reward from the emperor, and the original owner put it on the belt because it looked good!
Thinking that you will have to deal with the Cheng family in the future, why not give her one of these craps, and took the pearl off with a force, and handed it to Cheng's mother, saying:
"I was in a hurry on the way back this time, and I happened to meet General Cheng again,

So I didn't prepare a gift. This pearl was presented to the emperor by the governor of Hepu County. At the beginning, there were only a few of them. I asked for one because it looked good.
Now I'm giving it to the old lady, it's a gift from the kid! "

Cheng's mother was overjoyed when she heard it, and immediately took it over, as if snatching it.
Maybe because he felt that he was too anxious and a little bit inferior, he quickly pretended to be embarrassed and said:

"Oh, look, my son, you are so polite. Fang gave me such a good gift as soon as we met. How can you say this!" He said embarrassedly, but he held the pearl tightly in his hand, as if For fear of being snatched away,
Over there, Cheng Shi looked at his old lady's virtue, and said to Jing Haoying embarrassedly:

"This, my son, I'm really sorry, this gift from the emperor... this..."

Jing Haoying waved his hands with a smile and said:

"Haha, it's okay, to be blunt, I have too many things from the Holy Majesty in my hand, and I don't know where to forget some of them. I, the gift giver, are so happy to give it to the old lady! "

Over there, Cheng's mother watched Cheng Shi talking to Jing Haoying, and stared closely, for fear that Jing Haoying would ask for it back, but now that she heard that it would definitely be given to him, she immediately wanted to jump for joy, her face beaming with joy.
"Haha, you are still my son, you can talk!"

Then he turned his head and yelled at Ge Shi:
"Look quickly, is this pearl bigger than old lady Nawan's, haha!
In the future, I will definitely show it off and let them see it, haha! "

Xiao Yuanyi next to him couldn't listen any longer and hurriedly winked at Cheng Shi, and made a gesture with his mouth. Cheng Shi understood it in seconds, and interrupted quickly:
"Grandmother, my family is Niaoyou, why don't you see Niaoyou coming out to greet her?" She said and looked around worriedly.

Cheng's mother was looking at the pearl at the moment, and there was nothing swaying, so she said impatiently:
"Who? I don't know!"

Cheng Shi immediately said in a more emphatic tone:
"Mum, I'm talking about Niao Niao, where is my family Niao Niao?"

It was only then that Cheng's mother came to her senses, she slightly restrained her smiling face, her expression was a little embarrassed, and Ge Shi, who was flattering her over there, also bowed her head quietly.

Xiao Yuanyi was also a little anxious when he saw it, and asked quickly:

"Where did you go? Is there something wrong?"

Cheng's mother immediately turned dark when she heard the words, and said angrily:

"What do you mean, are you complaining that we didn't take care of it?

That girl has a bad temper, she made some mistakes two days ago, I asked her to go to the countryside to reflect! After finishing speaking, he looked at the end of the street and muttered:

"It's supposed to be back by now, why haven't you seen anyone yet?"

When Cheng Shi and Xiao Yuanyi heard this, they were embarrassed and angry at the same time. The embarrassment was that outsiders were there, exposing the ugliness of the family, and the anger was because they felt that the life of their family was not going well. Their husband and wife were fighting outside, while their daughter was at home. After receiving such treatment, he had to go back to the village to reflect on Zhuangzi.

Thinking that the family ugliness should not be publicized, they all looked at Jing Haoying with sincere eyes, and Xiao Yuanyi even apologized:

"It turned out to be at the door of the house, and the prince should be invited in to sit down.
But you see that the family affairs are complicated, and there is no banquet prepared,
Let's invite the prince another day! "

Although Jing Haoying wanted to stay and watch the excitement, but everyone said so, it was not easy to hold back, just about to say goodbye,
Cheng's mother over there immediately became unhappy, she thought it was not a big deal, the benefactor in front of her was the most important thing, and shouted to Xiao Yuanyi:
"No, what kind of etiquette are you doing? How can someone not let people in when they come to the door of the house?

If it gets out, can our Cheng family still gain a foothold in the capital?
What's more, who is he, he is the prince, not a cat or a dog, you are disrespecting him, do you know that? "

Then she looked at Jing Haoying and said in her heart, the old lady finally caught a rich master, and she was taken advantage of. How could she let him run away so cheaply? She stepped forward and said with a warm smile:
"Oh, my son, don't listen to her, she has been in the frontier for a long time, and she doesn't know how to welcome and see you in the capital. Tell me, how can you not let guests come to the door? What's the reason for that?

Don't worry, son, I'm still in charge of the Cheng family, don't listen to her, just listen to me, don't go anywhere today, you're staying at our house, don't leave if you don't have a good drink!Ha ha! "

As he spoke, he was about to pull Jing Haoying's sleeve, obviously afraid that Jing Haoying, who was taken advantage of, would run away.
Jing Haoying was so frightened that he hurriedly took a few steps back and hid, afraid that the strong mother Cheng would really drag him over.

Over there, Cheng Shi and Xiao Yuanyi were also in a cold sweat, not to mention comparing Jing Haoying to a cat or a dog, and they were so vulgar. Although they knew Jing Haoying's mild temper after dating for a while, it was hard to keep him from being angry. It was Jing Haoying who looked nervously.

Jing Haoying also had black hair, but he knew that the old lady probably didn't have that kind of thought, mainly because she was used to vulgarity, and although the old lady looked vulgar in her actions, she shouldn't have any bad intentions, so he nodded with Xiao Yuanyi , said it's okay, then smiled at Cheng's mother:

"Since the old lady said so, then I'll bother you for a while, and it's not too late to go home after having a drink first!"

Cheng Shi and Xiao Yuanyi immediately breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that this world is really giving face, if they still drive people away, it will be unreasonable.

Besides, they thought that it would not be a big deal. After all, they also have eyeliners in this family. Although it seems that the discipline is not good, it should not be a big problem. Cheng Shi hurriedly smiled and said:

"That's right, what my mother said is right, I should ask the prince to come in and sit down!" Then he made a gesture of invitation and said:

"Sir, please!"
