Chapter 172: Assigning tasks
Speaking of which, Ximen Qing left Chao Mansion, and rode a fast horse to Yuncheng County. When he arrived in Yuncheng, the sky was getting darker. Ximen Qing did not stop and rushed to Songjiazhuang quickly. After asking his servants to inform him, he saw Song Jiang, Song Qing, Yang Lin, Kong Ming and Kong Liang running out hurriedly.
Seeing Ximen Qing in front of the door, Song Jiang was very happy and stepped forward and grabbed Ximen Qing's hand. He moved and said, "Emperor Yi, why are you back? I haven't seen you these days, but I want to ruin my brother! You are back this time, you can't hurry back!" After that, he pulled Ximen Qing's entire hand into his arms, as if he was afraid that Ximen Qing would run away. He also snuggled his body on Ximen Qing's body.
Ximen Qing smiled awkwardly, and the corners of his mouth twitched a few times. Song Jiang was always so "passionate" that Ximen Qing couldn't stand it. Ximen Qing glanced at Kong Ming and Kong Liang, and found that the two buddies' faces were rosy, and the "charming" between his eyebrows made Ximen Qing feel nauseous. His mood was getting much better.
At this time, Song Qing beside Song Jiang said, "Brother, Emperor Yi must have rushed back for the matter of King Chao. He has worked hard all the way, so let's go to the village to chat!"
Song Jiang panicked, nodded quickly, and said with a smile: "I was negligent, haha, Emperor Yi, let's talk about it in the hall!" Ximen Qing said: "Okay!" Then, n people entered the living room together. Song Jiang sat up, Ximen Qing sat opposite, on the left side was Song Qing, Yang Lin, and on the right side were Kong Ming and Kong Liang.
After sitting down, Song Jiang said, "Emperor Yi, you are so anxious to come back, probably for King Chao!" Ximen Qing breathed a sigh of relief, nodded, and said, "That's right! Brother Song, do you have the whereabouts of Chao Gai and others? Do you know where they are?" Song Jiang shook his head and said, "I don't know, now I only know that the soldiers are chasing them, and there is no whereabouts of them. In short, it is certain that they are very safe now. Emperor Yi, don't worry too much."
Ximen Qing rubbed his eyebrows and said, "Oh, don't worry that it's fake. By the way, how about Bai Sheng?"
At this time, Song Qing said, "Bai Sheng suffered. It is said that he was beaten up by Zhao Neng and Zhao De's two dogs! He also made him suffer!" At this time, Kong Liang, who was begging him, said, "Hmph, you deserve it! Who told him to keep his mouth from saying something? But Zhao Neng and Zhao De's two turtle sons deserve it. One day I will record them alive! Humph..."
"Zhao Neng, who is Zhao De?" Ximen Qing frowned and asked.
Song Jiang explained: "Emperor Yi didn't know anything. After Hao Zhuo and Hao Jian died, although Zhou Xing led his troops to wipe out the Sabre Mountain, Yang Jian was still furious and revoked and surrendered Zhou Xing, Zhu Quan and Lei Heng's powers.
Zhou Xing went home unemployed, while Zhu Quan and Lei Heng were surrendered to prison camps. The cavalry and infantry were appointed by Zhao Neng and Zhao De. Zhao Neng and Zhao De were relatives of the new official, so they bullied the people with power. It can be said that they were two more Hao Jians! The pursuit of King Chao this time was planned by Zhao Neng and Zhao De. They both took great pains to get along with Cai Jing's big ship! These two scums will destroy them one day!"
Ximen Qing nodded, and there was murderous intention in his heart, but he also knew that now was not the time to kill, and the main task was to find Chao Gai and others.
Ximen Qing said to Song Jiang: "Brother Gongming, I plan to wait for news from Chao Gai and the others in Yuncheng County, so I want to ask you for help and take care of you. If there is any news from them, I must notify me in time. By the way, Brother Gongming, are you still the lieutenant in the yamen now?" Song Jiang nodded and said, "Yeah, I am still the lieutenant in the yamen now." Ximen Qingdao nodded and said, "Okay! Then I'll ask Brother Gongming to inquire more in the yamen. If there is Chao Gai's responsibility, please notify me in time!" Song Jiang said, "Okay, I understand, don't worry!" Then Song Jiang said to Song Qing: "Second brother, find some reliable confidants and inquire more in Yuncheng County." Song Qing stood up and said, "Okay! I'll go quickly now!" After that, he turned around and left.
At this time, Ximen Qing said to Yang Lin again: "Brother Yang Lin, I have something to do, please help me!" Yang Lin was happy when he heard that he had his own affairs, and hurriedly sat down and said: "Your Majesty, please tell me!" Ximen Qing said: "I want to invite Brother Yang Lin to the Chao Mansion and wait there. I guess Chao Gai and others will definitely return to the Chao Mansion, and waiting there may be able to wait for them!" Yang Lin replied: "Okay, then I'll hurry up overnight now, and there will be no delay!"
After saying that, he got up and went out.
Ximen Qing felt a little embarrassed and bowed to Yang Lin, "I'm sorry, Brother Yang Lin!" Yang Lin's face slit and said, "Emperor Yi, you'll be disgusted with me. You asked me to help me to look down on me, but I'm afraid you will dislike me and don't want me to help you! Haha, OK, Emperor Yi, I'll go first, and when the matter is resolved in the future, I'll have a good drink for you!" After that, Yang Lin walked out.
Looking at Yang Lin who was walking away quickly, Ximen Qing felt very moved. Being able to make friends with so many brothers is Ximen Qing’s lifelong blessing.
At this time, Kong Ming and Kong Liang could not sit still. Kong Ming hurriedly grabbed Ximen Qing and asked, "Emperor Yi, you look down on my brothers. Why do others have something to do? We don't have it! We respect King Chao and want to help him. If you can't see my brothers' appearance, you won't give us tasks. You can't be so kind to one and the other!"
Kong Liang also nodded quickly and said, "That's what Emperor Yi, you won't treat the two brothers as outsiders, right!"
Ximen Qing was stunned, then clasped his fists and said apologetically: "Don't blame the two guys, why did I treat you as an outsider? The people in this room just now are my closest brothers, how could I despise anyone? Two guys, I just happened to have something to ask you for help!"
"Hehe, I knew that Emperor Yi didn't forget us! Let's talk about it, let's make sure that we two will complete it!" Kong Ming was overjoyed and shouted as soon as he patted his mouth.
Ximen Qing nodded and said, "Don't both guys get some good horses, and prepare some loyal patrons for me!"
Kong Ming and Kong Liang looked at each other, Kong Liang smiled and said, "Don't worry, my brothers will bring you hundreds of good war horses tomorrow and hundreds of patriarchs. Don't worry, those patriarchs are absolutely loyal. If you ask them to commit suicide, they will not frown!"
Ximen Qingdun was happy and said, "For this reason, I would like to thank you two fans, brother!"
"Hehe, it's okay, it's okay. If you can help us, it's the best thank you to us!" Kong Ming said with a smile.
Looking at what Ximen Qing had told her, Song Jiang, who was beside him, suddenly said, "Origin Yi, I think you should go and see Sister Zixuan. Since she heard about the accident between King Chao, she has been worried and she cried all day long. Fortunately, Yan Poxi took care of her, otherwise she would have cried to death."
Ximen Qing slapped his forehead, stood up quickly, and said, "Hey, I'm just looking for Brother Chao, but I forgot about Zixuan. Alas, I'll go see her now.
Song Jiang nodded, stood up and followed Ximen Qing out of the hall, and said, "Emperor Yi, don't be anxious. Chao Tianwang Ji Ren has his own heavenly appearance, so it will be fine. I can live in the yamen now and can check the news in the most timely manner. Maybe there will be news tomorrow!"
Ximen Qing smiled and said, "Then let me borrow the auspicious words from Brother Gongming!"
Then the two chatted for a few more times before Ximen Qing left Songjiazhuang and walked towards Yan Poxi's home.
When he arrived at the familiar alley, Ximen Qing knocked on the wooden door. After a while, he saw footsteps coming from the yard.
"Who?" Yan Poxi asked in the yard.
Ximen Qing felt warm and said softly: "It's me!"
"Ah?" He heard a scream from the door, and then the wooden door was opened in a hurry. Then a white shadow rushed out and rushed into Ximen Qing's arms.
After many days of separation, Yan Poxi missed Ximen Qing very much. Therefore, he knew that Ximen Qing was back, Yan Poxi could no longer suppress Ximen Qing's love and rushed into Ximen Qing's arms.
Ximen Qing hugged Yan Poxi, then picked up Yan Poxi's pretty face and went up directly.
"Yeah" Yan Poxi's cheeks turned red, a soft moan came from his mouth and nose, and his body suddenly became sulked and fell into Ximen Qing's arms.
Ximen Qing patted Yan Poxi's jiāotun and asked, "Do you miss me?"
Yan Poxi looked at Ximen Qing, his eyes were not dodging, and he said shyly: "I want to!"
Ximen Qing smiled and pulled Yan Poxi into the yard, then closed the door.
Ximen Qing looked at the second floor and asked, "Where is Zixuan?"
Yan Poxi sighed, took Ximen Qing's hand, and said, "Sister Zixuan just fell asleep and she had been crying for the rest of the afternoon. Hey, you have finally come, so you should go and enlighten her quickly!"
Ximen Qing nodded and said, "It hurts her!"
Then Ximen Qing went upstairs, while Yan Poxi was preparing for food downstairs. The careful Yan Poxi had long guessed that Ximen Qing had not eaten yet.
Ximen Qing went upstairs and walked to the edge of Chuáng with all his steps.
Zixuan lay on the chuáng, her eyes were red. Although she was sleeping, her teeth were still biting her mouth, and she probably couldn't even feel safe in her dreams.
No wonder she was worried. Her parents died early, and Chao Gai, whose elder brother was his father, was Zixuan's only support. Now Chao Gai was wanted by the court, and his whereabouts were unknown, and his life and death were unclear. Zixuan was naturally panicked and naturally scared. It can be said that Zixuan was the most helpless at this time.
Seeing Zixuan's hands tightly holding the corner of the quilt, Ximen Qing felt loving in his heart, reached out to untie Zixuan's hands, and then held them in his own hands.
Zixuan slept lightly. When she moved her hand, she woke Zixuan up.
Chapter completed!
