Chapter 279 Departure from Qinghe Town

In the twelfth lunar month of winter, the cold wind came to keep out the cold. Pedestrians on the street hurried with their hands in their sleeves, and a layer of white frost formed on their brows.

The gray sky has no sunlight, and the sky is gradually darkening, making the temperature of winter with short days and long nights even more unbearable.

After leaving the noisy Tianque Tower, Shen Xian was hit hard by the overwhelming chill.

"Da Niu, go! I want to go home and sit on the kotatsu!" Shen Xian turned into the carriage with lightning speed before the bell rang

"Come on, ma'am, do a good job!"

Daniel laughed and raised his whip to drive the carriage away.

Tianque Tower is not too close to the Zhao Mansion, but it is not a problem to have a carriage instead.

The brown-red horse's mane fluttered, and it was breathing white as it ran in this bitterly cold day.

The horseshoes clattered, and they rushed home before dark.

Shen Xian got off the carriage and was about to go back to the house to eat bean paste and sit on the kotatsu when he heard a rush of horseshoes.

Looking back, it turned out that Yan Chongluan had come.

Shen Xian couldn't help laughing and said: "Mr. Yan, you invited me to eat steamed buns today, and you came here to eat hot pot at night, it's too rude."

Yan Chongluan got off his horse and smiled brightly, "What did Madam Sister-in-law say? I found out about Miss Hongye's background, so I'll let you know."

The smile on Shen Xian's face was even stronger, Yan Chongluan was clearly talking nonsense with his eyes open, he had been in the Tianque Tower all along, and he could stop himself from speaking when he came back along the way.

But Yan Chongluan did not catch up until he reached the door of his house, so it was obvious that he was just here for a meal.

Hmph, Cengfan has even surpassed his level.

Shen Xian's peach-blossom eyes were tactful, and he showed a smirk, "Then, Mr. Yan, walk into the mansion and talk about it in detail, and then leave on your own."

Yan Chongluan's face turned bitter, "Don't leave young madam, it's cold winter, how can you not eat something, just take care of the meal."

look!Sure enough, they came here for dinner!

Shen Xian hummed triumphantly, "Come in, it's too cold outside."

Passing through the clean and tidy front yard, Shen Xian took Yan Chongluan to the living room, seeing Shen Xian coming back, Yuechan brought over the burning red brazier.

The light blue flame rose, and the warm feeling was as happy as a pill coated with a layer of sugar.

After Shen Xian and Yan Chongluan took their seats, they each took a sip of hot tea to warm up their bodies, and then they started chatting.

"Mr. Yan is really fast. You got the registration information from Sister Hongye within a day?"

Yan Chongluan said with a hearty smile: "Actually, it only took half a day to get it. There are many things in this world that are open to money."

A strong interest floated in Shen Xian's heart, and urged: "Tell me, where is she from?"

Yan Chongluan pondered for a while, and said slowly: "According to the records of Tianque Tower, Miss Hongye is from Qinghe Town, Jinzhou, not too far from the capital, so I plan to go and see for myself."

It was about his friend, Shen Xian was naturally full of curiosity, and then suggested: "Mr. Yan, I will go to Qinghe Town with you, but I have to wait for my husband-in-law to come back and let him know."

"What do you want to do with me?"

As soon as Shen Xian finished speaking, Zhao Shun's figure appeared at the door.

Zhao Shun was dressed in a fuchsia official robe, which looked very upright, and he looked upright.

It's just that Zhao Shun's eyebrows are slightly tired, obviously he was very tired on the first day of taking office.

Seeing him coming back, Shen Xian got up with a smile and pulled him to sit on the grand teacher's chair, and said what was discussed just now.

For this moment, Zhao Shun naturally would not stop him, and said calmly: "That's fine, I will stay in the Ministry of Punishment and never come back after you leave for a few days."

Shen Xian was stunned for a moment, and asked: "Why? Is the Criminal Department so busy?"

"Busy?" Zhao Shun smiled sarcastically, "The Ministry of Criminal Justice is not idle, and the cases sent to the Ministry of Criminal Justice through government offices from all over the country are piled up in the warehouse for dust, no one examines them, no one makes decisions, and there are too many unsolved cases to count. "

Yan Chongluan frowned and scolded: "Moths eat meat, Sizheng will not fall."

Shen Xian stretched out his hand to smooth Zhao Shun's back, and said softly: "Don't be too tired, you are not alone in this world who can clarify Yuyu."

Zhao Shun nodded slowly, "I know, just do my best."

There are more than tens of millions of cases submitted from various places, and it is simply impossible for one person to handle them. Zhao Shun just doesn't want to be a vegetarian, so he just does his best.

After a supper, Yan Chongluan and Shen Xian agreed to leave the capital early tomorrow morning to go to Qinghe Town to check it out, and it will be the New Year later in the day, so there is no delay.

The night was like weeping, with little snowflakes falling, and the snow became bigger and bigger in the second half of the night, wrapping the world in silver.

After all, the winter snow in the capital came a little late.

Upon waking up in the morning, Shen Xian found that Zhao Shun was no longer there.

"Going so early in such a cold day."

Shen Xian's beauty frowned slightly, feeling that Zhao Shun was a little too hardworking.

As soon as this thought arose, Zhao Shun pushed the door open and came in.

The wind rolled in with snowflakes, and the chill was overwhelming.

Zhao Shun quickly closed the door, blocking the silver-white world from the door.

Holding a big bowl of hot ginger soup, Zhao Shun walked over steadily.

"My lady, it's snowing heavily outside, it's freezing cold now, drink some ginger soup to warm you up before you go."

Shen Xian's eyebrows and eyes curved like a moon, and he lifted his chin slightly.

"Sister-in-law feed me a drink."

Zhao Shun smiled knowingly, sat by the bed with a soup bowl in his hand, and fed her spoon by spoon.

Shen Xian drank the soup in small sips, his eyes were full of joy and satisfaction.

It is really a very happy thing to imagine a moment of comfort in leisure time.

After drinking the soup and breakfast, Zhao Shun left home and went straight to the Ministry of Punishment.

The backlog of old cases is like a thick sore, which makes Zhao Shun brood.

Not long after Zhao Shun left, Yan Chongluan arrived in a carriage as promised.

Shen Xian packed some bags and asked Daniel to come to the carriage.

Yan Chongluan hurriedly stopped Shen Xian and said: "Madam, I've already prepared this carriage for you."

Shen Xian was stunned for a moment, not knowing why Yan Chongluan had to prepare a carriage specially for him.

"OK then."

After taking Daniel into the carriage, Shen Xian was stunned.

The carriage prepared by Yan Chongluan was tightly wrapped with a thick animal skin blanket, there was not even a place for ventilation, and there was not even a trace of chill in it.

A smile appeared on the corner of Shen Xian's mouth, this Yan Chongluan really put his heart into it, the hot pot was not free.

The wheels of the wagon left long ruts in the snow, rattling the freshly fallen snow.

If it wasn't for the entanglement, Shen Xian would really like to play in the snow, but right now he can only take a look.

The dry branches on both sides of the road are covered with snowflakes, and occasionally the wind blows and it falls down.

Looking at the scenery of the Snow Country in the north, it was hard for Shen Xian to imagine the dilapidation under the snowflakes, and he didn't know whether Zhao Shun could make things right and restore the precarious court to normal.
