When they went back, the three of them traveled all the way to the mountains and rivers. It only took half a month's journey, but they walked for nearly a month before reaching the capital.

Jing Xing was not in a hurry, he would accompany Xue Shu to grind as much as she wanted.

However, although the road is long, there will be a day when we will reach our destination.

Looking at the majestic and majestic city wall not far away, Jing Xing suddenly didn't want to go back.

Just traveling outside with the person I like all the time is actually a good way of living, and I don't necessarily have to go back to the capital to face the storm that will come in the near future.

However, he is nothing, but Xue Shu's identity is left there, and he is destined not to live such a life of idle clouds and wild cranes.

"Alas..." Jing Xingchang sighed and turned to look at the carriage.

Xue Shu was lying on the window sill, with her hands overlapping her chin, staring intently at the city wall that was getting closer.

After passing the city wall, it was her battlefield.

Whether it's the princes, or Chuchu, or that mysterious voice hidden in the dark...

"Oh..." There are so many things to do, I don't want to go back.

Her gaze and Jing Xing's gaze collided in mid-air.

"Alas..." The two had different thoughts, but they both sighed in unison.

Qingyu looked at this, then at that, and finally lay back in the car like a salted fish.

She doesn't understand the troubles of the masters.

Even if he didn't want to go back, the carriage didn't stop after all.

After entering the city wall, everything around gradually became familiar.

The carriage did not stop and continued to move forward.

On the height of a restaurant on the side of the road, a person's eyes lit up, and after reconfirming that the person following the carriage was Jing Xing, he quickly got up and left.

The carriage finally stopped slowly in front of the Xue residence.

When the concierge saw this strange carriage, he thought it was a visitor, so he hurriedly greeted it.

When the door opened and Qingyu inside jumped out of the carriage first, the porter's eyes widened suddenly: "—Girl?"

Didn't his girl go to northern Xinjiang?
How did you come back so soon?
"Qingyu, take your luggage and go back to Tangli House first," Xue Shu ordered as she got out of the car, "Pack me the presents you have counted on the way, and I will send them to mother."

"Yes!" Qingyu moved swiftly, and when Xue Shu stood still, she immediately got into the carriage again, then took out a delicately packaged package from inside, and handed it to Xue Shu.

Xue Shu took the package into her hands, and only then remembered that Jing Xing hadn't left yet: "Mr. Jing, are you going to find my brother?"

Jing Xing nodded.

It's time to tell Xue Chen that he finally lived up to his mission and brought Xue Shu back properly.

"Then Mr. Jing, please do what you want." After Xue Shu finished speaking, she really didn't care about Jing Xing, and walked into the mansion by herself.

After all, they have been together day and night along the way, so there is no need to fix those falsehoods.

Jing Xing didn't think that Xue Shu's move was impolite, he let him take care of himself, and he really did so, he even turned to Qingyu and ordered: "Take my luggage down, too, and send it to Tingzhuyuan in a while. "

"Yes." Apparently, Qingyu was also used to being called upon by Jing Xing from time to time, so she agreed quite naturally.

main house.

Xue Lushi was holding a book of travel notes in his hand, reading it with great interest.

This travel note is called "Northern Journey Notes", and it records the scenery of the tourists along the way from the capital to northern Xinjiang, as well as the folk customs of the places along the way. The language is vivid and interesting, which has won Xue Lu's recent love.

She couldn't go with Xue Shu, so she had to read more books related to it, and it was barely considered to be with her.

Zhang's mother was sitting beside her, holding a pair of embroidery pans, and was busy embroidering Xue Lu's handkerchief.

The room was silent, with occasional chuckles.

"Mother!" Suddenly, a voice that should not have appeared at this time sounded, and then, a slender figure of a young girl trotted towards Xue Lushi.

"Shu'er?" Xue Lushi blinked, almost unable to react.

It wasn't until he smelled the familiar fragrance of jasmine at the end of his nose and hugged the little girl to his full arms that Xue Lu came back to his senses.

After the initial accident passed, what followed was a surprise that could drown the whole person in it.

Xue Lu's eyes widened, and she took a good look at Xue Shu: "You little girl, why did you come back after such a good time? Who brought you back?"

"Master Jing brought me back together," Xue Shu smiled, leaning into Xue Lu's arms and refusing to get up, "It's not that my daughter has never traveled far, alas, halfway through the journey, I miss my mother very much It just so happened that Mr. Jing came, and my daughter came back with him."

"You little girl, you really want to come out as soon as you come out." Xue Lu was so surprised at the moment that she even forgot to ask why Jing Xing went, "Get up quickly and tell me to take a good look at you! "

Xue Shu then stood up, turned around in front of Xue Lu, and said, "Look, mother, my daughter is not hungry and thin at all!"

This time she went back and forth, the clothes she brought earlier had been thrown away halfway, and now she was wearing the coarse clothes she bought casually on the road, but they fit unexpectedly.

The days of rushing on the road didn't make her look haggard. On the contrary, maybe because she saw a lot of great rivers and mountains outside, she looked more agile. She was dressed in thorn hairpin clothes, and she didn't look rough in the slightest.

Xue Lu nodded in relief, and pulled her to sit next to her: "Just be good! I guess Mr. Jing didn't spend much time on the journey. I have to bring a generous gift and go to the Right Prime Minister's Mansion to thank you in person. What about him!"

"Who said, my daughter didn't cause him any trouble along the way." Xue Shu curled her lips, quite dissatisfied.

Xue Lu shook her head helplessly, and had no choice but to follow her words: "Well, Shu'er is the most obedient. Come and tell my mother, why did you come back suddenly?"

"Didn't my daughter say that she just misses her mother?"

"Stop doing this." Xue Lu gave her a blank look.

If he couldn't bear her, Xue Shu wouldn't have left in the first place.

Of course, Xue Lu didn't want to blame her for anything, but she had been away for so long and came back suddenly, there must be something else hidden.

However, Xue Shu hesitated and refused to speak.

She knew that Xue Lushi and the queen had always been on good terms, if Xue Lushi knew that she thought of the queen so darkly, she would definitely be angry.

But what a transparent person Xue Lu is, even if Xue Shu didn't say anything, she could still make a rough guess.

"Are you afraid of the empress?" Xue Lu looked at her sideways, and finally saw a shocked expression on her face.

"It's just such a small matter, why don't you hide it from me?" Xue Lu gave her another white look.

They all grew up in the capital, so who doesn't know who's what?
Even if the queen really wants to touch her, she is not helpless and can only let others handle her.

I have to say that Xue Shu is still young, so it's easy to think about things.
