Don't go back to hometown

Although Fang Zhizhou was moved by Jiang Xianyu's proposal, he was not really sent to search and rescue the Nine Kings.

The other party is not a member of the government, and has no such responsibility and obligation.If there is no one available in such a large Jiangnan province, and a commoner is needed to lead someone to rescue the court order, he will not be the governor.

So Fang Zhizhou said: "The magistrate of Huai'an is doing his best to search and rescue, and the urgent report has also been sent to the capital. Your Majesty should order support as soon as possible. I will first deploy some people to Huai'an, and then send a letter to ask the Jiedu envoy to send troops to support."

However, the possibility of Jiedu Envoy actively helping each other at this time is extremely slim, but the Nine Kings can't delay——

Fang Zhizhou looked at Jiang Xianyu: "If it is convenient, can you lend me some people who are familiar with the terrain?"

Jiang Xianyu glanced at Xie Cheng, then nodded to Fang Zhizhou.

It was already late at night when the two came out of Fang Zhizhou Mansion, Xie Cheng boarded the carriage silently, Jiang Xianyu followed closely behind, sitting next to Xie Cheng carefully observed his expression, and then took his hand actively.

The carriage drove back, Jiang Xianyu scratched his palm, "You are angry."

Xie Cheng was stunned, and raised his hand to rub his forehead: "You shouldn't be so impulsive just now."

Jiang Xianyu rubbed against him: "It's my fault, I'm just in a hurry."

Xie Cheng held his face close to him, "The Nine Kings encounter must be dangerous this time, and the King Zhong may take the opportunity to make trouble. You shouldn't take risks."

Jiang Xianyu knelt down in front of him and held his face: "Do you know what I was thinking at that time?"

"The Nine Kings brought the money and supplies for the disaster relief. If one day is delayed, the victims will suffer one more day." Jiang Xianyu looked at Xie Cheng, believing that he would not understand.

Xie Cheng held his wrist: "But I still don't want you to be in danger."

Jiang Xianyu: "Well, even if it's not for the victims, if something happens to the Nine Kings, your hard-working plan and my wish to be rehabilitated will all come to naught, and even your family and I will be implicated—so, we must protect him."

Xie Cheng lowered his eyes and pulled him into his arms: "I know, I know everything."

But he still didn't dare to let Jiang Xianyu go.

The last time the young man just went to Huai'an to send a dart, and told him not to eat and drink, but this time the weather was so bad, how many people were watching in the dark, how could he let the young man take risks?

Xie Cheng hugged the boy in his arms tightly: "It's not time to be helpless, let's wait a little longer, maybe the Jiedu Envoy will send troops to help."

Jiang Xianyu was slightly surprised, he didn't expect Xie Cheng to be so irrational, knowing that the situation was urgent, if Jiedu envoys were loyal to the king's line, they would hope that the nine kings had an accident, and it was impossible to use all their strength to rescue...

But Xie Cheng is one of the few irrational people, all because of him.

"Xie Cheng." Jiang Xianyu leaned against his shoulder and opened the distance between the two of them, looking at him with clear eyes: "I'm going."

Xie Chenglan's hand on his waist suddenly tightened, his eyes dimmed.

However, Jiang Xianyu looked into his eyes without avoiding it: "If Jiangnan Jiedushi is a reliable person, it is not my turn to take part in this matter. But since the current situation is the case, then it is my Jiang family's opportunity, it is Jiang Wei's chance. The opportunity for the descendants of the wind to reappear in front of the people."

His expression was firm and his eyes were bright: "Although you said that Jiu Wang mentioned in his previous life that he wanted to rehabilitate the Jiang family, but that was only because of the relationship between my aunt and cousin and him. But my aunt and cousin have long since Rest in peace, the deceased is dead, I can't fully pin my hope on him to remember the old love."

"So I have to save him and let him owe me a life-saving grace. At that time, the people in the south of the Yangtze River will know who helped them save the imperial envoy and sent them money and supplies for disaster relief. Even if the court wants to be right in the future When the Jiang family strikes, they must also take into account the achievements I have made this time."

"This is a chance to fight for the Jiang family's life. Even if the Jiedu envoy is willing to search and rescue, I want to get ahead of him."

Xie Cheng stared at him blankly, his nose was slightly sore and his eye sockets were hot, and he couldn't move his eyes away.

It was he who was thinking about it.His youth is no longer a willful and reckless young eagle, but an eagle with plump wings that is about to soar high—smart, decisive, far-sighted, and ready for his blueprint for prosperity and the Jiang family's road to justice. Intend.

But he still wanted to protect him by his side and form a net to imprison him.

Xie Cheng took the boy back into his arms, kissed his side face, and restrained his selfish thoughts: "No risk, no injury."

Jiang Xianyu noticed the trembling in his voice, his heart softened, and he hugged him tightly: "I promise, I will come back safely."

……

Fang Zhizhou ordered a team to rush to Huai'an overnight, and cooperated with the prefect of Huai'an to search and rescue the imperial envoy.

However, he sent three documents in succession asking Jiangnan Jiedu envoys to send troops, and it was not until the evening of the second day that he received a reply from the other party that "you are not allowed to deploy troops without His Majesty's order".

According to the information in the urgent report, it has been six days since the Nine Kings disappeared, and His Majesty's will has not yet arrived, so the urgent report may have been intercepted long ago.Fang Zhizhou really had no choice but decided to borrow someone from Jiang Xianyu.

Jiang Xianyu has already counted the number of people here, and gathered a team of 50 people.More than half of them were descendants and descendants of the Tibetan Sword Villa back then, and the other half were bodyguards recruited later by the bodyguard bureau. When they learned that Shaodong's family was going to Huai'an to rescue the imperial envoy, they voluntarily joined.

It took a whole day to prepare, and in the evening Fang Zhizhou asked for help.

Jiang Xianyu agreed to come down, and went to Xie's house before leaving to say goodbye to Xie Cheng.

"Leaving tomorrow morning?"

"Yeah." Jiang Xianyu took the initiative to hug him, "It stands to reason that we should go overnight, but the weather is bad recently, so it's not safe to sail at night."

"Go by boat?" Xie Cheng was full of worries and wanted to ask everything clearly.

"Well, before this section of the canal is frozen, it's easier to travel than by land. Mr. Fang sent an official ship to take us there, it should be much faster than before."

Xie Cheng: "Even if it is an official ship, it will take three or four days to arrive in Huai'an. The Nine Kings..."

I don't know if I can last until then.

Jiang Xianyu: "As long as he is with the escort team, has food and grass, and something to keep out the cold, it shouldn't be a problem to last for a few days. I'm afraid he will be alone or get injured."

Xie Cheng was silent for a while, then suddenly said: "I will go with you."

Jiang Xianyu was stunned, and looked at him with a smile: "Didn't we agree? You are needed here more."

It is an eventful autumn in Jinling, and there will be snow in a few days, the city will soon be full of victims, and the order will become chaotic.There are so many shops in the Xie family, as well as the newly opened Four Seas Bank, all of which cannot be separated from Xie Cheng.

The charcoal and medicinal materials sold to the government also need to be managed by Xie Cheng.

"Besides, we are all gone, who will protect Sister Sangrou and the others?" Jiang Xianyu said, "I entrusted Su He to you."

Xie Cheng raised his hand to caress his face, his eyes were full of reluctance and worry, "But I'm still a little worried, a little scared..."

He said the last word very softly, almost whispering.For the first time, he knew that he was such a mother-in-law, timid and cowardly, like a fool who was bitten by a snake once and was afraid of well ropes for ten years, guarding his treasure tremblingly, lest he bump into it.

The smile on Jiang Xianyu's face gradually faded, his eyes were slightly hot, he simply raised his hand to hook Xie Cheng's neck, and kissed him proactively.

He could understand Xie Cheng's worries and fears, and his paranoid desire to control, but he didn't want to see Xie Cheng like this.

This means that he has never been able to make Xie Cheng feel at ease, failed to convince Xie Cheng that he has the ability to protect himself, and that they will be together for a lifetime.

The softness on his lips made Xie Cheng startled for a moment, and then he immediately embraced the person in his arms and turned his back on him, fiercely robbing him of his breath.

It seems that only in this way can he prove that he has the other party, and can offset the shadow and fear of losing the other party in the previous life.

The long and lingering kiss, the kiss was so short of breath, they pressed their foreheads against each other's foreheads and gasped violently.

"You want me." Jiang Xianyu said suddenly.

Xie Cheng's pupils trembled, and he looked at him in surprise.

Jiang Xianyu kissed the corner of his lips softly, with a nasal voice: "You want me, okay?"

Xie Cheng let go of him, and took half a step back, a little disappointed while being surprised.

The two had a hard time speaking before, and they always cherished each other with restraint. Even if they had occasional desires during intimacy, they never took that step.

But Jiang Xianyu suddenly brought up this matter at this time, as if it was an exchange to make Xie Cheng feel at ease.

The joy of fish and water should not be like this.

Jiang Xianyu realized that his words could easily misunderstand the other party, so he immediately grabbed his hand: "I didn't mean that, I, I just—"

Xie Cheng pinched his wrist, his eyes flushed red: "You just always feel that you owe me, so you can even use this to comfort me?"

"No," Jiang Xianyu shook his head in denial, his eyes flushed, "I, I just want you."

He raised his eyes to look at Xie Cheng, with water in his eyes: "I admit that I owe you, so I am also uneasy. I was self-willed and selfish in my previous life, and I was not worthy of your liking at all; now I also have no advantages. Trouble, why do you like it?"

Xie Cheng was taken aback, it was the first time he knew that the boy also had such "ridiculous" concerns.He just wanted to speak, but Jiang Xianyu covered his lips.

Jiang Xianyu's voice was choked up: "Not only are you worried that I will leave your sight, and that we will be separated again, I will also be afraid. I am afraid that I am not worthy of you and can't keep up with your pace; I am afraid that this decision I made is too big and difficult to realize. ; I am afraid that I will overestimate myself and drag you down."

"So can you... can you give me some confidence?" Jiang Xianyu's vision was a little blurred, and his eyes were full of mist.

He let go, grabbed the clothes around Xie Cheng's waist, and approached his arms: "If you are always afraid of me, I will doubt myself, let alone tell you, in fact, I am also afraid."

Xie Cheng stared at him blankly, forgot to speak for a while.

The teenager was looking to him for support and support, but he was timid and worried about gains and losses, and instead held back.

Once or twice, it can be said that he was afraid because of the tragic separation in the previous life; three times or four times, it was because he was incapable, because he was weak, because he was trapped in the shadow of the previous life and could not break free.

He shouldn't be doing this.

not like this!

Xie Cheng hugged him, his voice hoarse: "It's my fault, I should trust you, be your backing, and support your decision."

"You are very good. You are unique in this world. You are valiant, powerful in martial arts, straightforward and righteous, intelligent and decisive, kind and upright... I can't count the number of good things for three days and three nights. I don't need a reason to like you. There are countless people in the world. There are outstanding people, but there is only one Jiang Xianyu——Jiang Xianyu, whom I like in my heart."

He kissed Jiang Xianyu's forehead lightly: "Don't be afraid, don't feel owed, don't doubt yourself, and don't doubt my intentions, okay?"

Jiang Xianyu pursed his mouth, raised his head and blinked quickly, holding back the tears of emotion.

He hugged Xie Cheng's waist, lowered his head and muttered to him, "Then do you want me?"

"No."

Jiang Xianyu raised his head with a frown, Xie Cheng kissed him on the lips before pursing his mouth to get angry.

"Leave a thought for you, waiting for you to come back."

Jiang Xianyu froze for a moment, blushing and buried her head in his chest.

In fact, he didn't want it very much.

He just wanted to make each other feel at ease, but that was enough for now.

……

In the early morning of the next day, Jiang Xianyu, who had "thoughts" in his heart, took people on board and rushed to Huai'an, just in time to catch up with the Jiang family who rushed to Jinling while the snow stopped.

Knowing that Jiang Xianyu brought people into danger, Jiang's father made a decisive decision and asked Jiang Baizhou to bring people to help.

Ten days later, there were two more light snowfalls in Jinling City. Xie Cheng received a letter from Jiang Xianyu, saying that he had brought people into the mountains as soon as he arrived in Huai'an.

At the same time, Shen Zhui, who was staying in the south of the Yangtze River, found that the relief team had not arrived, and found out about the disappearance of the Nine Kings, and secretly sent a letter to the Holy One.

The Holy One was furious, ordered a thorough investigation of those who intercepted the news and deceived the Holy One, and blamed Jiangnan Jiedu for not being flexible, ignoring the safety of the people in Jiangnan, and ordered him to hand over the military power to Shen Zhui, who dispatched troops to Huai'an to rescue the Nine Kings .

At the same time, the imperial court raised another batch of relief supplies and sent the eighth-ranked King Cheng to the south of the Yangtze River.

In mid-December, Jiang Xianyu found a batch of relief money and supplies trapped in the mountains in Huai'an, and sent them to various places in the south of the Yangtze River together with the supplies brought by King Cheng. When the disaster broke out, the urgent need was relieved.

But the whereabouts of the Nine Kings and some of their followers are still unknown.

Then there were several heavy snowfalls, the canal from Huai'an to Yangzhou began to freeze, water and land transportation was completely blocked, and Xie Cheng and Jiang Xianyu also lost contact.
