Happy pastoral concubine

Chapter 1022 Trip to Xuzhou
Xu Jiangshi did not speak, but leaned on Xu Shenglin's shoulder and closed his eyes in pain.

"Husband, fortunately I still have you."

"fool!"

Fulai Inn in Chuzhou city.

Tang Huanxi looked at Jin Sheng who was drunk again, his eyes were full of pain and worry.

"uncle?"

"Happy?" Jin Sheng saw the person in front of him clearly, squinted his eyes and said, "Can you give me another jug ​​of wine? I haven't had a good drink yet!"

"Uncle, you are already drunk and can't drink any more." Tang Huanxi turned around, took the hangover tea from Xiao Baorui's hand, and handed it to his lips, "This is the hangover tea I just ordered , take a quick sip."

"Tea?" Jin Sheng raised his eyebrows and sneered, "I don't want to drink tea, I want to drink! Bring the wine!"

Seeing him continue to be drunk, dreaming and dying, Tang Huanxi felt distressed and full of pity.

"Let uncle drink!" Xiao Baorui supported her by the shoulders, comforting her silently, "Uncle is still awake, he needs to get drunk."

Tang Huanxi sighed helplessly, turned around and left side by side with Xiao Baorui.

Jin Sheng, who was left alone in the room, his blurred eyes gradually became clear.

He slowly climbed to the window and looked at the distant scenery with sadness in his eyes.

Qianlian, you are so cruel!

He searched hard for so many years through mountains and rivers, and they finally met again.

Now, it has been separated forever.

After leaving the inn, Xiao Baorui decided to take Tang Huanxi for a walk around to relax.

"Don't frown." Xiao Baorui raised his hand to smooth her frowning brows, and said softly, "Uncle needs a chance to vent his emotions, let him get drunk! Maybe he will wake up in a short time coming."

"I understand." Tang Huanxi nodded lightly, but her eyes were still full of worry, "Xiao Baorui, uncle won't do stupid things anymore, right?"

"No." Xiao Baorui rubbed her head, and said with firm eyes, "Uncle has already heard what you said earlier, don't worry."

"Ah."

The two held hands and walked forward.

In Chuzhou in May, the wind is still mild and warm.

The scorching sun was in the sky, but I didn't feel the slightest anxiety.

Looking from a distance, the sky is blue and cloudless.

"I remember that Wuyou likes this kind of weather the most. She said that this kind of weather is the most suitable for kite flying." Tang Huanxi raised her hand to cover her forehead, and smiled at the white sky.

"You miss them." Xiao Baorui looked at her profile and smiled softly, "Lady, I miss the children too."

"Then let's set off early and return to Beijing?"

"it is good!"

Before leaving, Tang Huanxi went to Chuzhou Garrison Mansion.

Xu Jiangshi walked out slowly, but this time she looked at Tang Huanxi with more mockery and less admiration.

"I heard that Mrs. Xu has locked herself in the Buddhist hall these days?"

"Thank you, empress, for your concern. It is really the words that the empress said to my wife a few days ago, which awakened my wife. That's why my wife thought about worshiping Buddha every day and copying Buddhist scriptures more, so as to help my younger brother who died early. Exceed."

"Judging from your tone, it seems that you are quite resentful towards me?" Tang Huanxi raised her eyebrows and looked at her with a smile in her eyes.

"The empress is good at setting an example, and the minister is convinced." Xu Jiangshi looked at her and said lightly.

"Presumptuous!" Hong Fu immediately took a step forward and scolded in a deep voice, "How dare you be presumptuous in front of the empress?"

"Presumptuous?" Xu Jiang sneered, "Your Majesty asked me, and I answered. How can you talk about presumptuousness?"

"I understand that you have resentment in your heart." Tang Huanxi looked into her eyes and said softly, "Your brother passed away, and Qianlian was the murderer behind the scenes, so I can understand your feelings. But your brother committed crimes in the past. Those crimes committed cannot be erased. Just like Qian Lian died, but it is also true that she committed a crime. "

"Don't you think your judgment on Qianlian's case is biased?" Xu Jiangshi asked with a sneer, his eyes red with anger.

"I have a clear conscience."

"What a clear conscience!" Xu Jiang could not wait to clap his hands and cheer, "Qian Lian is Doctor Jin's long-cherished lover, and Doctor Jin is your mother's uncle. Qian Lian committed a heinous crime, but in the end she was protected by you. Isn't it?"

"Madam Xu, Qian Lian is dead!"

"But my younger brother is also dead, who can compensate me for a younger brother?" Xu Jiang shouted hoarsely, "Mother, I have never been a kind and tolerant person, and I don't think you are either!"

Seeing her angry roar, Tang Huanxi was speechless.

She took a deep look at Xu Jiangshi, and finally turned and left.

Seeing Xu Jiangshi sitting on the ground in a state of embarrassment, Hongfu finally felt angry.

"Your brother's death is not completely blamed on Qianlian. Your brother likes to ask questions, and he has already contracted an unclean disease. Even if Qianlian didn't attack him, he won't live long." Hongfu looked at her condescendingly , said in a deep voice, "Besides, the empress did not shield Qianlian. The case concerning Qianlian was all judged by the emperor! The empress helped Dr. Jin and was punished by the emperor. There is one more thing, I want to remind you , in the future, if you are still so presumptuous in front of the empress, don't blame me for being rude!"

Seeing Hongfu's back, Xu Jiang fell heavily to the ground.

Eyes that were originally filled with anger, at this moment, there is only sadness left.

Garrison mansion, study room.

After hearing what Xiao Baorui said, Xu Shenglin kept nodding.

"What the Holy One just said, I have remembered. Regarding other doubts about the South-to-North Water Diversion Project, I will keep in close contact with Master Zhao, the prefect of Spring City. No matter what, we must do this well!"

"Well, I can rest assured that you are doing things!" Xiao Baorui looked at him with trust in his eyes, "The case of Qianlian's murder has been resolved. Next, your task will be even more arduous. I will soon You are about to leave, if you have anything else to do, remember to report to the court at any time."

"Thank you, Your Majesty!"

After leaving the defense mansion, Tang Huanxi leaned on the carriage, closed her eyes and rested.

"Where's uncle?"

"Doctor Jin is gone," Hong Fu took out a letter from her sleeve and handed it to her, "Ma'am, this is the letter that Doctor Jin left before he left."

Tang Huanxi opened the letter silently, and read the contents of the letter at a glance.

In my heart, I only sighed.

"Uncle wants to walk the same path that Qianlian has traveled all these years." Tang Huanxi carefully folded the letter, and put it in his arms carefully, "I hope uncle can get out of the pain soon. !"

"Lady," Xiao Baorui boarded the carriage, looked at her, and smiled gently, "It's time for us to set off and return to Beijing."

"Well, it's time to go back." Tang Huanxi nodded, "But before we go back, we have to go to one place."

"where to?"

"Xuzhou!"
