Gu Juefei's expression when he said those words is still vivid in his mind.

It's just that six or seven years have passed, and the eldest son and the eldest man have become deadlocked for some reason. They have lived in the Xuecuiding of Jokhang Temple for nearly six years, and they will not return even during the New Year. The general died in the battle of Hanshan Pass. Hearing that the bones were not found intact, they brought back a blind horse.

He Xing sighed a little in his heart.

Lu Jinxi heard it, but he didn't feel anything special, just a little strange: "The eldest son scolded you at the time and asked you if you didn't serve the country on the battlefield, then you should have joined the army at that time, why did you return to the Taishifu as a guard?"

"Hey, don't say it, I was weird about this back then."

He Xing didn't expect her to notice this.

"At that time, my brothers and I were told by the eldest son that we wanted to escort the caravan to Luoyang, so we went to join the army together. I told the eldest son, and the eldest son also said that we could write letters of recommendation for us. For a long time, the eldest son seems to have lived in Shenglongchang for two days, and then wrote a letter to us. But this letter did not recommend us to join the army, but sent us to the capital, saying that we were no longer needed at the border. "

don't use it?

At that time, there was still more than a year before the victory in the battle of Hanshan Pass, or the "tragic victory".

How could Gu Juefei say "no use"?

Lu Jinxi felt that something was not quite right, the thoughts in his mind really came out one after another, and the divine light in the bottom of his eyes changed faintly.

She asked quietly: "He told you to go back, so you went back?"

"Well..." He Xing felt a little embarrassed, raised his hand uncomfortably, touched the back of his head, and said, "We are all a bunch of reckless men, and people like the eldest son have said, we Of course, listen to him. Besides, how good is the capital? You can still have a bite to eat. Most of the guys are ordinary people, and they are willing to serve their country and their country, but if they can have a full meal, no one is willing to fight."

Lu Jinxi didn't speak.

He Xing realized it later, thinking that this was what angered her, and hurriedly said: "This subordinate is stupid, you really can't speak, you, you..."

"fine."

With a faint smile on Lu Jinxi's face, he shook his head at him, and the thoughts that popped up in his mind gradually calmed down. After all, it is in the past, and it is meaningless to trace the origin.

"Anyway, it hasn't been two years since you arrived in the capital, and the war is really over. It's the eldest son who knows things like God."

"Exactly."

Because he suspected that he had said something wrong before, He Xing did not dare to answer a few more words at this time, for fear that he would say more and more mistakes.

However, Lu Jinxi asked again: "The eldest son said earlier that there have been many bandits and gangsters in the west of the capital in recent days. We are heading south, so it should be a lot safer. After all, the weather is good this year. people of the day."

"It's hard to say."

Speaking of things in the green forest, He Xing still knows the depths.

"The most people in this world are people who like leisure and hate work. They want to enjoy themselves but don't want to endure hardships. They live in peace and prosperity. It’s just that they are basically stragglers, and even if they encounter it, it shouldn’t be a big problem.”

"With your words, I am relieved."

Lu Jinxi actually felt the same way, nodded, and chatted with He Xing for a while, then he was a little sleepy again, and retreated into the car to rest.

At noon, the group stopped at a tea shop and repaired for a while.

Continue on the road after noon.

Since it was not far from Baoding City, they hurried for a while, arrived at the city gate at dusk and sunset, handed over the guide, and finally entered the city.

Chapter 116 Sheng Longchang

Compared with the capital, Baoding is really a small place.

Lu Jinxi's group of 20 young people is nothing in the capital, but in this realm, they are somewhat eye-catching.

Fortunately, it was too late to enter the city, there were not many people, and it did not attract too many people's attention.

The inn that He Xing wanted to stay in was sent by He Xing early in the morning to send two brothers to the outpost, and they searched for it in the city first, so as soon as they arrived, they went straight in.

One room was given to Lu Jinxi.

Except for Qingque, who was serving in Lu Jinxi's room, everyone else was in two rooms, just in case there was an accident that was difficult to take care of.

It has been exhausting for the past few days, and after taking a rest on the first day, he has to leave the next day. Now that he has finally arrived in Baoding, Lu Jinxi has finally made up his mind.

It's just that she is not in a hurry to go to Sheng Longchang to talk about things.

After dinner that night, he directly asked Qingque and the shopkeeper to inquire about the situation of Shenglongchang in the city, and explained to He Xing that he would send a few people to see Shenglongchang in the morning, and then he stopped.

After all, Mrs. Lu was seriously ill at the beginning, and her health was not very good. These days, Lu Jinxi couldn't bear it very much, and she fell asleep almost as soon as her head touched the pillow.

This sleep is the next day at noon.

When she opened her eyes to look, the window was already white.

"Why didn't you wake me up?"

Lu Jinxi blinked and got used to it, only to realize that Qing Que had noticed it and came over to her.

So stood up and asked a question.

Qing Que had already washed up, she hurriedly came to help her, and only smiled: "My servant sees that you are very tired these days, and you said last night that since you are in Baoding, things are not in a hurry. So I want you to sleep well, I didn't call you in time."

This is true.

It feels good to sleep until you wake up naturally.

Lu Jinxi's body was a little sore, so Qing Que pinched herself before getting up and getting out of bed. After that, I got dressed and washed, and ate breakfast and lunch in the room, and finally got up in spirit.

"Yesterday you said you wanted to send a few people from He Xing to investigate. He was going to come back and forth about an hour ago, but you were still asleep at the time. Do you want to call him over now and report the situation to you?"

Qingque cleaned up the cup and plate and asked her.

Lu Jinxi thought for a while, then shook his head: "You don't have to ask him to come over, the weather is good today, ask him to come out and walk with me on the street to have a look, and talk as we go."

"Yes."

Qingque also felt that this matter should be taken so carefully, for fear that Lu Jinxi could not see enough and could not find out.

After all, although my wife didn't say it, she can guess that the capital of this business must be her own money.

Lu Jin slightly adjusted his cuffs and walked out.

The bluebird followed behind him.

They lived on the second floor, and downstairs was the lobby of the inn. When it was time to eat at noon, there were not many people, but there were quite a few.

This kind of place is not particularly big when it is said to be big, and it is not particularly small when it is said to be small. People who live there can recognize a familiar face, and a new face is very abrupt here.

Not to mention, two women.

Especially among them, Lu Jinxi, even if the dress is changed to a more commonplace, it can't hide her beauty and slender figure.

Talent came down from the upstairs, and the lobby was silent.

Drinkers, meat eaters, all stopped.

In such a place, where can see such a good-looking and luxurious woman? was stunned for a while.

He Xing was eating below with a few brothers, and he didn't expect Lu Jinxi to come down like this. After reacting, he frowned, put his chopsticks down, and walked over quickly.

"lady……"

"Have you eaten yet?"

Lu Jinxi didn't care about the gazes of others, glanced at it, and asked He Xing directly.

She didn't explain too many things, He Xing didn't do much work in the morning, and he wasn't a bucket of rice, so he was full early after eating, and as soon as she heard what she said, she knew something was wrong, so she said, "Have you eaten, what are you?"
