Chapter 317 The Trouble Is Endless
"Don't worry about him, we'll go by ourselves, and it's not that we can't find the way."

Is this a problem of not being able to find a way?Negative Xue thought, there was clearly anger in those words.These two ancestors were not as good as honey before they got married, why did they get married, and when it was time to be newlyweds, why did they have an awkward relationship?

Negative Xue looked at Xu Jiao's face, but didn't dare to ask more questions.

The two masters and servants walked out of the main courtyard named "Mingyueju", but bumped into Su Le who was walking in a hurry.

Xu Jiao's pace gradually slowed down, his eyes subconsciously looked behind him, but seeing that he was the only one, his eyes dimmed.

Su Le came forward with a smile, and saluted Xu Jiao from a distance, "I've seen Madam."

"Mr. Lang still has important matters, so he can't come back for the time being. He specially asked his subordinates to accompany his wife back to the door. If he finishes his work in a while, he will go to Jingfu..." Before Su Le could finish speaking, Xu Jiao walked past him left.

Su Le rubbed his nose, sighed silently, "Excuse me, please pray for your own blessings", then turned around and hurriedly followed.

When I arrived at the gate of the mansion, I saw that there were already two carriages waiting there, one was the carriage that Xu Jiao traveled on, and the other was a flat carriage, which was full of boxes and brocade boxes, all of which were for Xu Jiao's return. door ceremony.

Xu Jiao paused for a moment, looked at the cart of gifts, and without saying anything, lifted the hem of the skirt and got on the carriage.

When Su Le caught up, he didn't bother to say good things for Helian. Anyway, a smart person like Xu Jiao would understand what he needed to say, and it would be unbeautiful for him to talk too much.

Su Le turned his head and smiled flatteringly at Lingxue, and said in a low voice, "Lengxue, I bought a jade bracelet with a good water quality at the jewelry store two days ago. Let's see when you will be free..." I'm ok I'll show you, but before I could say the words behind, Lingxue had already followed Xu Jiao into the carriage.

Su Le smiled lonely.But he quickly adjusted, smiled again, and beckoned to the guards to escort the carriage to Jingfu slowly.

When they arrived at Jingfu, Xu Jiao laughed as if nothing had happened, she absolutely did not dare to worry Mrs. Zhao.

But she went back to the door alone, even though Mrs. Wu asked a question, she replied with a smile that He Lianshu had business to do, so the people in the Jing family didn't say much. After all, among the men in the Jing family, only Jing Da The master and Jing Duo are there, and both of them belong to the kind of people who are too idle in the Jing family.

But Mrs. Yan and Jing Shan couldn't hide the gloating in their smiles, Xu Jiao just pretended not to notice.Talking to Mrs. Wu and the others, Mrs. Wu probably knew that Xu Jiao had nothing to say to them, so she wisely asked the mother and daughter to talk about themselves.

Mrs. Zhao took Xu Jiao back to Hengwuyuan, her eyes looked up and down at Xu Jiao who was still smiling sweetly, "What's wrong? Did you have a problem with Ashu?"

"No! Didn't you say that he has official duties? Grandfather and second elder brother are also not in the mansion. It must be that something serious happened in the court!" Xu Jiao believed it. Anyway, He Lianshu If it was not a last resort, she would not leave her alone to go back and forth.But she was indeed a little angry with him, so she felt awkward, but she absolutely couldn't admit it in front of Mrs. Zhao.

Mrs. Zhao glanced at her, she didn't know whether to believe it or not, but she said, "Two people have to tolerate each other in their lives, and occasionally we have to stop our petty temper."

"Understood, mother! Ashu and I are fine, don't worry! Why does mother keep asking him? I have been away from you for two days, and this time is different from usual. I am married, so mother can't Do you care about me?" Xu Jiao took Madam Zhao's arm and acted coquettishly.

Mrs. Zhao thought about it, so she asked, "Okay then! How is Ashu treating you?"

Xu Jiao "..."

Xu Jiao and Mrs. Zhao talked affectionately for a while, then took a nap for a while, and soon after getting up, they went to Baishou Hall with Mrs. Zhao for dinner.

As soon as he walked to the entrance of Baishou Hall, he saw a porter rushing over with a happy face and said, "The new son-in-law is here. The old man and Mr. Erlang are also here with him."

Xu Jiao turned his head and saw He Lianshu striding towards him just in time, accompanied by Jing Shangshu, Jing Qin was one step behind them.

He Lianshu seemed to have noticed her gaze, and raised his eyes to look over.

The four eyes met, Xu Jiao snorted softly, gave him a quiet look, and looked away.

But because of her stare, He Lianshu felt a little relieved, and turned to talk to Jing Shangshu.I don't know what he said, but he didn't have any expression on his face, but what he said made Jing Shangshu laugh out loud, and he patted He Lianshu's shoulder so happily!
When they are at the table, they will be entertained with good wine and good food.It was the first time for the new son-in-law to come to the door for the banquet today, and they were all from his own family, so they didn't sit at the same table.

As they got closer, Jing Shan looked at He Lianshu's well-defined, masculine, tough, and handsome face, and felt uncomfortable in her heart.In addition, seeing He Lianshu chatting with Jing Shangshu and Mrs. Zhao, although he spoke sarcasticly, he was courteous and not at all as cruel and ruthless as the rumors said, Jing Shan felt so sour... How can Jing Yue marry well?And she can only marry far away, and can only marry into a wealthy family of a gentry?

The jealousy that had been brewing in her heart for a long time poured out when she saw He Lianshu turned around and put a chopstick of venison into Xu Jiao's bowl, biting her heart like a poison.

Like Jing Shan, the rest of the Jing family also had different emotions when they saw this scene.After all, even if they were newly married, it would be nice if they were married again. In this world, men are superior to women, and few men would curry favor with a woman in public like this.

But this also shows that He Lianshu values ​​and loves his new wife.

Jing Shangshu and Mrs. Wu were naturally happy to see each other.The two surnames were originally married, but now it seems that this grandson-in-law is capable, and the more he values ​​his granddaughter, it is naturally the best for this marriage.

Mrs. Zhao was full of joy for her daughter, looking at He Lianshu's eyes full of mother-in-law's satisfaction and gratification for her son-in-law.

As for the members of the Jing family, their moods are much more complicated.

Master Jing seemed to have disappeared, lowered his head and smiled, a dark light flashed in Madam Yan's eyes, and her gaze swept across the face of the smiling Madam Zhao, when she lowered her eyes, she quietly pinched her hand under the sleeve.

Jing Duo winked at Xu Jiao, while Jing Qin silently drank the wine in his hand.

Xu Jiao frowned, turned his head to look at He Lianshu, and saw that his eyes were fixed on her with a pair of tight eyes, Xu Jiao finally sighed silently, lowered his head and used bamboo chopsticks to hold the A piece of venison was put into his mouth, chewed, and after swallowing, he turned his head to He Lianshu and smiled sweetly, "It tastes good!"

When the words fell, He Lianshu also took a piece, "You have a taste too!"

He Lianshu slightly lifted the corner of his mouth, obediently picked up the piece of venison and tasted it, his eyes lit up with a slight smile, "It tastes good."

After a meal, He Lianshu talked with Jing Shangshu and several men in the outer study for a while, and was dragged by Mrs. Zhao to talk alone for a while before being sent all the way out of Jingfu.

He Lianshu got into the carriage directly. In the carriage, Xu Jiao glared at him, but he just sat there cheeky until the carriage wobbled away from the Jingfu gate, then he raised his hand and pressed his forehead, He frowned and said, "I seem to have drunk too much today, and my head is a little dizzy. If I'm riding a horse, I'm afraid I won't be able to sit still, so it's better to take a carriage."

Xu Jiao let out a "ho" and said, "Pretend! Keep pretending! How much can you drink enough?" She was watching the whole process just now. Several men drank a jug of wine together, and there was only so much for him to drink. many?
"You don't know, it's probably because I didn't sleep all night last night, and I've been busy all day today, and I'm not in a good condition, so I feel a little drunk, ouch... My head hurts just talking about it." He Lianshu said As he spoke, he tilted his head and leaned against the car wall.

Seeing him talking nonsense in a cold tone, Xu Jiao knew in her heart that he was trying to coax her, so the corners of her mouth could not help but curled up. She managed to maintain her cold face, and raised her hand to pat him and said, " What great event happened to make Governor Helian stay away all night on the second day of his wedding?"

"It's really a big deal!" He Lianshu opened his eyes with a solemn face, "Last night, the refugee camp in the western suburbs suddenly ran out of water."

"Where?" Xu Jiao didn't understand for a while, and after a moment of silence, his expression changed, "The refugee camp?"

Is it where the gang surrounded Hongfa Temple earlier, and after negotiating with the Queen Mother, they were temporarily resettled by the court in the western suburbs?
The refugee camp Emperor Xian took special care of it, and the court attached great importance to it. The food for the refugees was well managed, and the money was allocated directly from the state treasury.After hearing about it, some refugees from the surrounding area came to vote one after another.

"The sky is dry and the things are dry, the fire spread so badly that no one escaped." He Lianshu said indifferently.

Xu Jiao suddenly heard the implication.Even if the sky is dry and the fire is fierce, how can there be so many people and none of them escaped?
"It's him, right?" Xu Jiao suddenly thought of a possibility, and suddenly raised his eyes to He Lianshu in surprise.

Emperor Xian thought earlier that the Queen Mother's agreement to the refugees was a compromise with them, and that the refugees threatened the Tian family, which was a great loss of face to the Tian family. A refugee, but this refugee may have become a thorn in Emperor Xian's heart. With his narrow mind, it is impossible to guarantee that he will not find a way to pull out this thorn.

"My people bumped into people from Ziyiwei outside the refugee camp..." He Lianshu didn't answer her directly, and said after a moment of hesitation.

Zi Yiwei?Xu Jiao recalled the way Jing Shangshu and Jing Qin came back with him just now, and the way Jing Shangshu smiled at him. Thinking about it now, Jing Qin is also a little more silent today... Jing Qin's position in the Ziyiwei will not last forever. The word "Deputy" was removed, Zi Yiwei should not try to escape him in any action.

"Why is he..." Xu Jiao gritted his teeth, his face turned ugly, "That's hundreds of fresh lives!"

"As a courtier, there are always times when he is forced to do so, and there is nothing he can do about it." He Lianshu said in a deep voice, actually intending to excuse Jing Qin.

"Even if he had no choice, he became the knife in that person's hand. What's more, he acted so inconsiderately, and he couldn't even hide his tail for such a big matter. If Zi Yiwei can get in your eyes, it may not be impossible to get in." In the eyes of others, if it is pursued, will that person take the responsibility? For his own reputation, Ziyiwei is an abandoned son, and there will be endless troubles...he will have endless troubles!" Xu Jiaoyue said, the more he frowned, his face was full of sorrow Man, his hands were tightly twisted together.

If the matter is exposed, Jing Qin must be the scapegoat, and the entire Jing family might be involved.Xu Jiao had already seen Emperor Xian's indifference, so it was by no means alarmist.

Xu Jiao gritted her teeth, the corners of her eyes were smudged red, "He's too confused."

"Don't worry!" He Lianshu stretched out his hand and twisted her tightly together, his knuckles were white, and he held her slightly trembling hand, staring at her quietly and deeply with his star-like eyes. Let her inexplicably calm down. "I've already helped him take care of his queen."

After hearing this, Xu Jiao raised his brows and eyes in shock. He didn't feel relieved at all. Instead, he said in shock, "You help him with his aftermath? How can you help him with his aftermath?"

Such a terrible thing, not only Jing Qin, but even him was involved?However, whether it is Ziyiwei or his police guard, which one is really monolithic?If he was noticed by that person, because of his suspicion and her relationship, he would inexplicably bring Ziyiwei and Jishiwei together. If Emperor Xian believed that they would not restrain each other, they might have one nostril. Get angry, then...

Xu Jiao suddenly felt cold all over.

The coldness surged from the bottom of my heart and spread to all my limbs. Even if He Lianshu's hands were held tightly, they still couldn't warm up.

She raised her eyes to look at him anxiously, and he could see the fear clearly in her eyes, "Don't worry, it's not that bad! After all, we don't know the true identity of Commander Zi, and I helped Ziyiwei cover it up. I'm not helping him, but His Majesty."

"I confessed to His Majesty before I came to Jingfu. If I had a ghost in my heart, how could I be so frank?" He Lianshu still looked calm.

Seeing him like this, Xu Jiao felt a little more at ease in his heart, but his heart was still not at ease, "Can I really get through it safely?"

"Let's pass this test first!" He Lianshu said in a deep voice, his eyes were dark and bottomless.

Xu Jiao understood what he meant, his eyes flickered slightly, the corners of his mouth opened and he was about to say something, but the carriage suddenly shook and stopped suddenly.

The stop was a little sudden, and Helian Shu's brows furrowed slightly.

"What's the matter?" he asked in a low voice.

Xu Jiao knew that they hadn't arrived home yet.

"Lang Jun!" Su Le's voice came from outside, hiding his usual smile and looking a bit dignified, "Your Majesty sent someone here, please come to the palace immediately to face the saint."

Xu Jiao's heart tightened, and the hand held by him turned to clasp his, with some force, it hurt a little to hold He Lianshu.

He turned his head and saw that her face was already pale, he stretched out his other hand, and patted the back of her hand in a comforting way, and then with a little force, he broke away from her hand.

"I'll go back as soon as I go! You go back and have a good rest, don't wait for me!" When he finished speaking, he leaned over and kissed Xu Jiao lightly on the forehead. When Xu Jiao was still in a daze, he turned around and walked out. car.

When Xu Jiao raised his eyes, he only saw the swaying car curtain.
