Chapter 219
Chapter 219
After all, Xiao Wenxuan was only here to complain, and by the way remind Zhong Shao that after returning to Beijing, she should go to Emperor Yongning to show her merits for her injured father who went into battle.As for actually stopping people, it's not only making Zhong Shao feel uncomfortable, but also making her suffer.
Although the princess is not very capable, he is not really blind to this point.So on the second day, Zhong Shao finally left the relief work to King Fu, and happily left with a few raiders and half of the troops.
Hurry up and go all the way back to Beijing.
Leaving Beijing at the beginning of December and returning at the end of the first lunar month, it was much faster than the two or three months Zhong Shao had expected when he left Beijing. Melancholy.
Missing Xiao Mo, children, and home, but before entering Beijing, Zhong Shao felt that some things had to be settled.
This night, the inn where everyone stayed was the one that Xiao Wenxuan and others chased after leaving Beijing that day, but now Xiao Wenxuan stayed in Shengzhou to take care of her unhealed father, and did not go with her.But this time back, there are quite a few raiders accompanying Zhong Shao, including Xu Wenjin, Wu Changjun, Hong Ping, and He Ming.
This inn is still not far from the capital, if Zhong Shao and the others continue to work fast, they will arrive tomorrow.
Zhong Shao knew that after returning to the capital, there would be many things, she had to live in the palace, and it was not convenient for her to have more contact with the He family, the most wealthy and wealthy firm in the country.So some things can be made clear tonight, and some things can be settled tonight.
Probably there was a tacit understanding, so that night, everyone gathered in Zhong Shao's room.
Zhong Shao looked at the familiar faces in front of him, sighed secretly in his heart, and said without any nonsense, "I'm going back to Beijing tomorrow. I've been busy before, and I haven't had time to thank you all for your help. Zhong Shao is here. Thank you very much."
Every time after helping Zhong Shao in a serious way, as long as she thanked Zhong Shao in a serious way, her favorability would rise "噗噗", and this time was no exception.Everyone was prepared when they came, and now they really heard their own system prompts:
"Congratulations to the host, the favorability of the protagonist is +10, currently 87 points..."
"Congratulations to the host, the favorability of the protagonist is +10, currently 85 points..."
"Congratulations to the host, the favorability of the protagonist is +10, currently 82 points..."
"Congratulations to the host, the favorability of the protagonist is +5, currently 80 points..."
From high to low, these favorability levels are Wu Changjun, Xu Wenjin, Hong Ping, and He Ming, which also shows their closeness.But no matter what, this time everyone has received a notice to increase their favorability, including Xiao Wenxuan who is far away in Shengzhou. After receiving the favor of her own father, after a wave of favorability increases, they have already reached 80 points. Sensitivity.
80 favorability points are already a pass. Both Zhan Pengfei and Yang Sifu used to be smiling at Jiuquan with this score, and they were not only smiling at Jiuquan, but they couldn't wait to leave!
All the raiders could only hear their own system prompts, and only Zhong Shao could understand everyone's prompts at this moment... In fact, she didn't need to increase her favorability so much. This time, apart from Hong Ping and He Ming who helped her a lot, Xu Wenjin, Wu Changjun, and Xiao Wenxuan basically just followed her to make soy sauce. She gave three or five points of favorability and it was enough.
However, although Shengzhou's trip was not long, her state of mind changed a lot.When she came here, because she was reluctant to give up, she wanted to deduct her favorability, so as to keep Xu Wenjin and others.But more than a month has passed, seeing He Ming's urgency, and experiencing Xu Wenjin and Hong Ping's training, Zhong Shao suddenly realized his selfishness and shame.
None of these people in front of her owed her anything.On the contrary, they gave her too much help, whether it was the earnest teaching when she was young, or the perseverance in times of crisis, no one was more dedicated to her than them.
Up to now, Zhong Shao finally has no way to continue to be selfish, so she can only be patient, give her favorability generously, and then face the parting that may never be seen again...
The people who received the favorable impression tone were pleasantly surprised and surprised.Surprised that their strategy has finally reached the pass line, but surprised that their favorability has increased so much this time!
You must know that the higher the base of favorability, the more difficult it is to increase it. From 0 to 10 and from 70 to 80, the difficulty is not the same.Just like Wu Changjun had 77 favorability points before, and he was still 3 points away from passing the pass line. He thought that if he took this trip, even if he helped a lot, it would be good to increase his favorability by 3 points. Who would have expected this time? He didn't do anything, yet he still gained 10 favorability points.
Wu Changjun was delighted, but Xu Wenjin was quite worried when he heard the prompt, but the latter didn't show his worry, and his face showed the same joy as the others.
Because of Zhong Shao's generosity, several people happily accepted Zhong Shao's "thank you", and then Hong Ping opened his mouth and said: "I am not young, Shengzhou has had enough trouble this time. Ah Shao, after returning to Beijing, you and I will meet some elders in the beggar gang, and then take over the position of leader of the gang. If this kind of thing happens again in the future, you will have to solve it by yourself.”
Zhong Shao heard that Hong Ping was going to leave, and he had made up his mind to go.She had expected it a long time ago, and she felt a little sore in her heart, but she also suppressed her emotions and agreed: "Yes, Master, I will take care of things from now on."
Although Hong Ping used the excuse that he was getting old, Zhong Shao didn't mention any topic of retirement, because she knew that once this person left, his soul would leave his body like Zhan Pengfei and others, and he would no longer exist in this world.So there is no such thing as pension!
Hong Ping had already expressed her attitude, and Zhong Shao's eyes glided over Xu Wenjin and Wu Changjun one after another, but because these two were with her the most and had the deepest relationship, she subconsciously didn't want to face the separation from them.So she quickly looked away as if avoiding it, and then turned her gaze to He Ming... She didn't expect He Ming to say anything to her, she just wanted to see when he would leave.
He Ming was caught by Zhong Shao's gaze, but he misunderstood him. After thinking for a while, he took out a jade plaque from his pocket and handed it to Zhong Shao, then said: "After returning to Beijing this time, I will probably go back to Jinzhou. Yes, you and I got to know each other once, and this jade token will be given to you. If you encounter any difficulties in the future, or if you are short of money, you can take this jade token to the He Family Firm, and they will help you."
Zhong Shao didn't expect to have this one, he was stunned for a while, but then he accepted it with a calm thank - he didn't expect the jade medal to be of any use, after all, if He Ming wasn't around, he would give it to him. It's hard to say how much use this jade tablet can have.Leaving this thing is just a thought, so that Zhong Shao must not forget that there was such a foolish and rich son who spared no effort to help her.
Putting away the jade plaque, Zhong Shao felt even more melancholy, but also felt warm because of Hong Ping and He Ming's final arrangement.
Then, she finally set her sights on Xu Wenjin and Wu Changjun, wanting to see what these two gentlemen who had paid the most for her had to say to her at the end, after all, this parting was inevitable.
Teacher and student for fourteen years, Zhong Shao and Xu Wenjin have a tacit understanding that no one else has. Xu Wenjin can almost know what Zhong Shao is thinking just by looking at Zhong Shao.So he raised his hand and rubbed his cheeks, and said with a slight smile, "What are you looking at us for? You and I, Mr. Wu, are both poor and poor. We have no money, no power, and nothing to give you." After a slight pause, he continued: " Not only do I have nothing for you, but I have to rely on you to support me.”
Zhong Shao was taken aback when he heard this, but his eyes brightened when he realized it—this means, the two gentlemen are not leaving? !
************************************************** **********
After entering Beijing, the real difference began.
He Ming returned to Qiyun Pavilion, and before leaving, he said "Treasure" and said goodbye forever.Hong Ping will take Zhong Shao to meet the elders of the beggar gang who stayed in the capital on the second day, and he will also drift away after the excess of power.Only Xu Wenjin and Wu Changjun said goodbye to Zhong Shao in a flat manner, and then went back to Zhaowen Hall, maybe staying for a month, maybe a year, or maybe longer, no one can tell.
Parting is melancholy, but reunion always reveals joy.
Zhong Shao came back so fast, no one expected that she would willingly give up her huge contribution after handling the matter of Shengzhou, and no one would have thought that she would dare to "leave without authorization" and directly hand over the power affairs to King Fu, in a hurry. ran back.
Xiao Mo didn't expect it either, so when she heard the noise outside the bedroom and raised her head in displeasure, but saw the door of the hall being pushed open the next moment, and the person she was most familiar with stepped in and approached her, she was stunned. up.
The four eyes met for only a moment, and before they had time to feel the feeling of ten thousand years in that glance, Zhong Shao came with big strides.She walked very quickly, and in the blink of an eye, she was in front of Xiao Mo, then stretched out her long arms, and embraced him in her arms: "Ah Mo, I'm back."
Only then did Xiao Mo come back to his senses, she raised her arms to hug Zhong Shao back, and pressed her cheek against Zhong Shao's neck, the corners of her lips raised consciously, and after a while she said: "I'm finally back, I miss you so much."
Zhong Shao also laughed, Xiao Mo seldom speaks so bluntly when he misses such words.
The person who misses is also missing you, and she is still waiting for you at home, this is the happiest thing.Zhong Shao's heart was warm, the earlier thoughts of parting had been thrown away somewhere, she hugged Xiao Mo and didn't want to say anything, she just wanted to experience the beauty of this moment quietly.
However, at the next moment, Zhong Shao suddenly felt some strange movement. She thought of something and quickly let go of her hand, and saw Xiao Mo raised his hand to caress his belly and smiled softly: "The child also knows that you are back. I moved just now, afraid of you. Forget about her."
Zhong Shao hurriedly looked down when he heard the words, but was surprised to find that Xiao Mo's stomach had grown bigger by more than a circle or two like blowing up a balloon in less than two months.She put her hands on the round belly, and then felt very clearly that the child in the belly seemed to have kicked her... Compared with the weak fetal movement two months ago, it was much stronger.
That's great, even if the people around her leave one after another, Ah Mo and the child will always be by her side.
