Chapter 1355
Even a woman is an elderly woman.
Look at his dark gray tattered cotton robe, the cotton wool that was about to turn black was exposed in several places on his body, and he stepped on a pair of tattered cotton shoes with open toes.
In short, this man is short in stature and looks very embarrassed.
Yin Guang turned him over with his sword, only to reveal his withered and thin face. A gourd was tied around his waist, which was originally suppressed, but now it is also exposed.
Well, he is a bad old man. Judging by the wrinkles on his face, he should be at least five or sixty years old.
But even if you touch him like this, he doesn't move at all.
Yin Guang made people hold his hands and feet, and squatted down to check his breath.
Well, people haven't frozen to death yet.Moreover, the old man drank alcohol, and he could smell the alcohol when he got close.
Yin Guang shook the gourd on his waist, it was empty, and he had a rough guess in his heart.
"My son, he may be a beggar. The road was too cold and he froze. It may be because he had drank a few sips of wine before and protected himself from the cold, so he was not completely frozen."
Shizi said: "Have you checked carefully?"
Yin Guang shivered in his heart, and said: "The subordinates have carefully checked the bones of his hands and feet. He is not a martial artist, and he only has one hand, and the other hand seems to have been neatly chopped off. But the strange thing is, He has nothing on him except the wine gourd."
This is a bit unreasonable, even a beggar should salute somewhat rudely outside in such a cold day.
Ah Wu looked at Shi Zi, waiting for his next words.
The son said: "Take the man first, and find a bedding and padded clothes for him. If you don't freeze to death on the way, ask after you wake up at the posthouse."
"Yes."
Liu Qinghan might see that the carriage hadn't left for a long time, and asked someone to come over to inquire, and A Wu asked someone to tell her the truth.
"Meeting a beggar on the road, is there any breath left in such a cold day?" Liu Qinghan showed a sneer at the corner of her mouth, "There are so many monsters and monsters."
Xie Xingdao: "Sister, the Shizi also knows it in his heart."
"I know, so I don't mind being nosy." Liu Qinghan said lazily.
When we arrived at the post house, hot soup and hot water had already been prepared inside.
Standing in the warm room where the earth dragon was burned, Ah Wu suddenly felt alive.
"Brother," she said to the prince who was washing his face, "it's too cold today. Even though we can't fit in, let everyone come in to rest. Crowding is better than the ice and snow outside. The person on duty today changes every half an hour. Let someone stay outside for too long."
While speaking, she handed the cotton towel to Shizi.
The prince took it and wiped his face with a smile: "I think so too, I have already ordered Yinguang to go on."
Ah Wu was relieved.
"Eat first, take a good rest after eating, we will arrive in the capital in two days." The prince took Ah Wu's hand and walked to the table together.
Tofu with cabbage, chicken soup with radish, stewed pork with dried eggplant, braised lion's head... Although the food is simple, it still makes your index finger move.
Ah Wu was also polite, and picked up the chopsticks to eat.
After eating, Ah Wu remembered that she didn't go to accompany Liu Qinghan for dinner, wondering if she was picky.
"I have already arranged the same meals as ours," Shizi comforted her. "The journey was hard and I was hungry. She can understand."
Ah Wu said: "It's the elders after all, why don't I go and see now?"
"I'll let someone report it first," said the prince.
Liu Qinghan doesn't play cards according to common sense, and there is Xie Xing in the room, it's really hard to say what she's doing when she's full of wine and food.
Ah Wu obviously wanted to understand, and nodded.
After a while, Yin Guang said: "Miss, old lady, please go over."
"Is there any yin and yang in my grandmother's words?" A Wu asked.
Silver Light: "...it seems a bit."
Ah Wu: "Heaven is going to kill me! Brother, brother, will you accompany me?"
Grandma still gave her brother face, the main reason is that Ah Wu felt that what happened today was really a fault of her own, and she should go to the elders first even if she was tired of traveling, even if she didn't serve her, she should greet her first.
Shizi smiled and took her hand: "Let's go."
"Brother is the best!"
The prince and Ah Wu went there together, Liu Qinghan glanced at the hands held tightly by the two, and said with a half-smile: "Am I here a dragon's pond and a tiger's den? You came to see me, didn't I ask you to come?"
She was sitting on the couch, and Xie Xing stood behind her with his head bowed.
"Grandma," Ah Wu said coquettishly, "Are you full? Have you warmed up yet? Is there any soreness, let me pinch it for you? My handwork is very good."
"I can't afford it." Liu Qinghan sneered at her and said, "I know that neither your mother nor you are close to me, there is no way, I have never raised you. Food is more important than me, I know."
Ah Wu: "...Grandma, don't be angry!"
She sat down beside Liu Qinghan and shook her arm coquettishly, Xie Xing took two steps back, not daring to raise his head.
The prince was obviously satisfied with his actions, sat down on the official hat chair, and said slowly: "It's been a long journey, the old lady has worked hard, thank you for your contribution."
This was the first time he called Xie Xing's name, and the latter said in trepidation, "Your Majesty speaks seriously."
Xie Xing was obviously a little excited, and his body trembled a little.
Liu Qinghan said slowly: "My lord, you are a man of good words, if you say that Xie Xing has meritorious service, then it is true meritorious service. If you have meritorious service, it is right to reward it in terms of meritorious deeds."
Xie Xing didn't want her to speak so directly, worried that the future emperor in front of him would be sullen, with his fists clenched by his side, nervously not knowing what to do.
Unexpectedly, Shizi nodded his head: "I know what Xie Xing asked for, and I will deal with it after a year."
Xie Xing didn't understand what this meant, so he looked at Liu Qinghan, saw the latter nodded at him, knelt down and saluted, "Thank you, my lord!"
Shizi said lightly: "Get up."
Liu Qinghan said: "Get up quickly, the ground is very cold. Speaking of which, you also have fame and fame, unless you meet the emperor, you don't need to perform such a grand ceremony."
"What fame?" Ah Wu asked curiously.
In her impression, those who are not polite to officials must be Juren or even Jinshi.
A scholar may not kneel when he meets a magistrate, but he still has to bow when he sees a higher-ranking official.
Liu Qinghan looked at A Wu with a gratified expression of "you've finally gotten the hang of it", and then proudly said: "Xie Xing is a 16-year-old candidate, and if it wasn't for the accidents in his family, he might have been the No. [-] candidate .”
Ah Wu: "That's still quite difficult. But it's really not easy for a 16-year-old Juren. Unexpectedly, Xie Xing is good-looking and so smart."
Liu Qinghan glanced at Shizi, wanting to give Ah Wu a kick.
She deliberately brought up this matter because she wanted to show Xie Xinglu's face in front of the crown prince, so that she might be able to pursue an official career in the future.
As a result, when Ah Wu made such a mess, Shizi was so jealous, it would be good if he didn't find fault with Xie Xing, so why would he be given a chance!
