Chapter 101 Illness
"Huh?" Seeing Xiao Cheng's back, Xie Jun stared.

this one?At any rate, I am his savior, so I'll be gone if I ask her name?

At this moment, Zhuang Xuan came out from where the two were hiding before, walked up to Xie Jun, and put his hand on his shoulder.

"You just let me save this? Who is he?" Xie Jun has served the court for many years, but he is away all year round, and he doesn't care much about the transfer of officials from various places.

Besides, although he knew that this person was called Xiao Cheng, there was more than one surnamed Xiao, so he didn't bother to guess which family he was from.

"Didn't you say, it's Xiao Cheng." Zhuang Xuan looked around, and when he heard Xie Yun's question, he responded casually.

"Nonsense, I'm asking you to ask me to save him. Why? I don't know him."

Before, Zhuang Xuan told Xie Jun that he should leave the capital as soon as possible to save someone, otherwise, someone would be sad.

Along the way, he always felt that he was being fooled, and now this idea is even stronger.

This Xiao Cheng is a man, let's not talk about whether he is married or not, the only girl in their Xie family who can marry is now the queen in the palace, as for the others, they haven't been born yet.

Even if he is born later, judging by Xiao Cheng's age, he must be in his 20s. When the girl in the family grows up, he will be old enough to be a grandfather, so it will definitely not work.

As for himself, he really only likes girls.

So, after thinking about it, Xie Yun couldn't figure it out.

"The heavenly secret must not be leaked." Looking away, Zhuang Xuan responded, "Speaking of which, before you left, didn't His Majesty give you a mission?"

When he returned to Beijing, he reported to Zhao Jing about the bandits, and Zhao Jing sent someone to investigate.

When he left, Zhao Jing asked him to stop by to receive the results of the investigation, and if necessary, he would simply take over.

Whether those bandits will be killed or surrendered will have to wait for his reply later.

"Yes, but look at this group of people, they are obviously not the ones to surrender." The two of them were hiding in the dark just now, but they heard someone order to cut off Xiao Cheng's leg.

Now, this person is being trampled under by Xie Jun.

"What's more, the place I'm going to is not here. From the looks of it, there are not many bandits in this group. Let's report to the local government later and deal with it."

Now that I have encountered it, it must be dealt with, Xie Jun thought for a while, "Which state capital is near here?"

"Near here?" Zhuang Xuan looked around, "It seems to be Yancheng."

Xie Jun raised his eyebrows and looked at Xiao Cheng. He had read the letter just now. This scholar named Xiao Cheng was going to Yancheng.

"Then just leave it to him, can we go?" With some strength under his feet, the bandit was trampled and screamed.

Xiao Cheng heard the voice, and things here were almost arranged, so he turned his head and looked over.

Xie Jun looked over, as if you were looking at something.

Xiao Cheng withdrew his gaze, and ordered a few words to his subordinates, asking them to help him bury his horse.

After that, he walked towards Xie Jun and Zhuang Xuan, and clasped his fists again, "I still want to thank you two for your help. I heard what you just said."

"Xie Jun? Is it Xie's family in Zhongyonghou's Mansion?" Xie Jun was not sure which Xiao family Xiao Cheng belonged to, but Xiao Cheng accurately told Xie Jun's origin.

Raising his eyebrows, Xie Yun looked at him without saying a word.

"The Xie family in Zhongyonghou's mansion has five young masters and one young girl. They all have single-letter names, and the characters are from the day. I have lived with the second young master Xie before."

The Second Young Master Xie that Xiao Cheng was referring to was Xie Han’s second brother Xie Han. In March, he was ordered to quell the tribe’s troubles, and Xiao Cheng was there at that time.

Xie Han made a contribution to solving the tribe's affairs, and Xiao Cheng, who went with him, also made a contribution, so he got the transfer order and was able to go to Yancheng.

"So, you know my second brother." Xie Jun responded, glanced at Zhuang Xuan out of the corner of his eye, still secretly guessing in his heart.

The second brother, Xie Han, has a wife and no concubines. The couple are harmonious and have two children. The youngest one was born not long ago.

The second sister-in-law was born in the Fang family, and her surname is not Xiao, so she obviously has nothing to do with this surname Xiao.

Furthermore, although the couple get together less and leave more, their relationship has always been good, and it is impossible for the second brother to take a concubine. I think this person surnamed Xiao has nothing to do with the second brother's family.

"I'm next, Zhuang Xuan." Noticing that his friend was peeking at him, Zhuang Xuan didn't say much, he cupped his fists at Xiao Cheng and introduced himself.

"It turns out to be the son of the Zhuang family." There are quite a few people with the surname Zhuang, but there is only one person who has a good relationship with the Xie family.

"Since Master Xiao is going to Yancheng, and these bandits are within the range of Yancheng, I will hand them over to Sir."

Zhuang Xuan was not surprised that Xiao Cheng told his background, he smiled and said, motioned Xie Jun to lift his foot, picked up the one on the ground, and handed it to Xiao Cheng.

Someone picked up the bandit and tied him up.

"If you don't have urgent business, you can go to Yancheng with me to rest for a while."

Even if you have official business, you should take a break along the way, and you have to take a rest. This place is not far from Yancheng.

Xiao Cheng really thanked them, the journey went smoothly, he really didn't expect a group of bandits to appear suddenly, he sent people to scout the road before, and found nothing unusual.

If it hadn't happened suddenly, they wouldn't have been held down like that, thanks to Xie Yun's appearance, otherwise, it's not certain what will happen now.

"It's nothing urgent, let's go." Zhuang Xuan said, Xie Jun glanced at him and didn't say much.

The bandits were tied up, and the group headed for Yancheng.

In Yancheng, some people have heard that officials will arrive in the near future. Although they don't know when, they have already made preparations.

Xiao Cheng brought bandits into the city, so conspicuous, naturally he couldn't keep a low profile, Xie Jun and Zhuang Xuan followed suit, had a good meal, and were arranged to live.

The bandits were put in prison, Xiao Cheng ordered people to go to the place where the accident happened and search again, so as not to slip through the net.

In the end, this matter had to be reported to the capital. In Xiao Cheng's memorial, both Xie Jun and Zhuang Xuan showed up.

-

After several autumn rains, the weather became cooler, and many decorations and supplies in various palaces were replaced.

Not only the clothes of the concubines, but also the clothes of the palace people were changed into thicker ones.

Early in the morning, Xie Zhao sneezed several times in succession. Zhao Jing, who was about to go to the morning court, heard it. He walked to the bed, lifted the bed curtain, and looked down at Xie Zhao.

"I told you to cover the quilt well, you have to listen, have you caught a cold?" After speaking, he bent down and reached out to touch Xie Zhao's forehead, but it was not hot.

Sitting up, Xie Zhao glared at him. He didn't ask her to cover her quilt properly. He clearly wanted to avenge her being wrapped up by him before, and wanted to wrap herself up with the quilt so as not to kick him when she fell asleep.

"I'm fine." Although there was no fever, the voice sounded different from usual.

"Why don't you just ask the imperial physician to have a look, or ask Cardamom to make some ginger soup for you."

Zhao Jing still had to go to the morning court, although he was worried, he could only give a few instructions, Xie Zhao nodded, and waved to him, indicating that he could go.

Seeing her appearance, Zhao Jing stretched out his hand again and knocked on her head...

 Xie Jun: Looking at this kid surnamed Xiao makes me uncomfortable, and I have to beat him up some other day.

  Zhuang Xuan: Waiting for a good show.
