Chapter 309: Being in a high position, destined to be lonely for life
The sun sets in the west.
When Xiao Junze and others arrived at a small town, they stayed in an inn.
The innkeeper looked at the impressive group and approached them enthusiastically, "Dear guests, would you like to stay at our hotel?"
When Manager Ji saw Xiao Junze nod, he said, "Boss, please give us three private rooms and three ordinary guest rooms." As he spoke, he took out a silver ingot from his purse and handed it to the boss.
The shopkeeper took the silver ingot and immediately smiled, "Sir, there are only two private rooms left upstairs. Please see..."
Sheng Yunshao supported Princess An Ran and said, "Two rooms, then two rooms!"
Xiao Junze looked at the two people who were clinging to each other and said, "Aunt, you..."
Princess Anran understood what Xiao Junze meant. "Let's stay in the same room. I just have a headache and need him to give me acupuncture."
The shopkeeper saw that the problem was solved and shouted at the top of his voice, "Dear guests, please go upstairs."
Seeing this, the waiter hurried forward to serve.
These people were all dressed in gorgeous clothes, they must be from wealthy families in the capital.
Manager Ji walked out of the inn and ordered several guards to move all the things they were carrying to the private room on the second floor.
Xiao Junze rubbed his slightly aching brow and went upstairs with the help of Manager Ji.
After riding in the carriage for a whole day, he felt exhausted.
Sheng Yunshao deliberately fell behind a few steps and whispered, "Ruoxin, if you don't like seeing him, let's go to another inn."
Princess Anran covered her lips and smiled, "The rooms are already booked, let's stay together!"
After going up to the second floor, Xiao Junze said to Princess Anran, "Aunt, you should get some rest early."
Princess Anran nodded and said in a caring tone, "Auntie, you don't look well. You should get some rest as soon as possible."
The aunt and niece chatted for a few minutes and then went back to their rooms.
As soon as he entered the room, Sheng Yunshao put on a smug look.
This dog emperor was used to a life of luxury in the palace. He must be exhausted after going on such a long journey!
It's your own fault.
This time when he went out, the guards Xiao Junze brought with him were all top-notch masters.
After Xiao Junze checked into the inn, they consciously dispersed around the area and maintained strict vigilance.
In the private room, Manager Ji forced himself to serve Xiao Junze.
After finishing dinner, he lowered his head and said graciously, "Your Majesty, I will help you change clothes and bathe."
Alas, I’ve only been out for one day and I already miss the life in the palace.
When they were out, Xiao Junze didn't put on airs. He waved his hand and said, "I'll do it myself!"
Seeing this, Manager Ji quickly took out some spare clothes for Xiao Junze.
The night is dark.
After taking a shower, Xiao Junze stood in front of the window, staring blankly at the town shrouded in the night.
At this moment, he felt a little complicated.
After suddenly leaving the capital, his mood changed a little.
Suddenly, he felt an inexplicable sense of loneliness in his heart.
On his way today, he saw loving couples in farming families and the love between fathers and sons...
Unfortunately, these ordinary and sincere emotions are impossible to exist in the royal family.
Thinking of this, Xiao Junze murmured with a hint of emotion: "Being in a high position means you are destined to be lonely for life."
Steward Ji, who was standing nearby, listened to this and said, "Master, it's getting late. You should go to bed early!"
Xiao Junze turned around and walked to the bed, took off his clothes and handed them to Manager Ji, then went straight to bed.
After Xiao Junze fell asleep, Manager Ji blew out the candle and tiptoed out of the room.
After closing the door, he whispered to the two guards standing by, "You take turns keeping watch. Be sure to be vigilant."
"I understand."
After making all the arrangements, Manager Ji dragged his exhausted body back to the guest room...
In another private room, after Princess Anran fell asleep, Sheng Yunshao got up, extinguished the candle, and then walked lightly back to the soft couch beside him.
The next morning, after breakfast, the group headed towards Jizhou.
......
On this day, Xiao Chengjin, who was driven out to work in the fields, suddenly received a secret letter stating the date Xiao Junze was leaving Beijing.
He threw down the hoe in his hand and ran back to the village.
"Ruoruo, there's news."
Jiang Ruo, who was sitting under a tree and swinging, looked at the dirty Xiao Chengjin and gave a wicked smile.
"What news?"
Xiao Chengjin wiped the sweat off his forehead and handed the secret letter in his hand to Jiang Ruo.
"Just look at it!"
"Ruoruo, I've realized how hard farming is. Can you please stop letting me work in the fields?"
Xiao Chengjin said this aggrievedly, muttering in his heart: If this goes on, this handsome face will get tanned.
After reading the contents of the secret letter, Jiang Ruo tore it up casually. "Only those who endure the most hardships can become the best. You have been pampered since childhood, so it would be nice to experience life for a while."
"Okay, you're all smelly with sweat, go wash up!" After Jiang Ruo finished speaking, she gave Xiao Chengjin a bright smile.
Xiao Chengjin sniffed his body and walked towards the bathroom with a look of disgust on his face.
Alas, to be honest, it is really not easy for ordinary people.
In recent times, the happiest person is Jizhou prefect Fan Qiyun.
When the yamenei had less official business, he would ride around in a carriage.
Putting aside his political achievements, he also hopes that the people can live a good life.
Looking at the rice seedlings growing well, he couldn't stop smiling.
Oh, I didn’t expect that this barren land would become a “treasure land”.
There is nothing more to say, it’s all thanks to that gentleman and lady.
When passing by Zhuangzi, he told the driver: "Go to Zhuangzi."
"Yes, sir."
The driver turned around and drove towards Zhuangzi, waving his whip...
Steward Lin looked at the carriage parked outside and hurried over to meet it.
"Master Fan is here!"
Fan Qijun straightened his clothes and laughed, "I was out for a walk and happened to pass by here, so I came to take a look."
"Are the master and the lady here?"
Steward Lin said with a smile, "Everyone is here. Sir Fan, please come in quickly."
In the front hall, Xiao Chengjin was showing Jiang Ruo his handsome, red face with an aggrieved look on his face, "Ruoruo, I feel a little stinging here."
"It's okay, it will be fine in a few days." Jiang Ruo looked at the handsome face that kept moving forward and gave him a kiss.
This scene happened to be seen by Fan Qijun who came in. His old face turned red and he quickly covered his eyes.
Mom, I’m sorry for disturbing our love.
Jiang Ruo looked at Fan Qijun standing at the door and quickly stood up, "Master Fan is here, come and sit down."
Fan Qijun put down his hands and saw Xiao Chengjin looking at him with a smile.
"Master, am I... coming at the wrong time?"
"You're here at the right time. I was looking for you for something. Come and sit down!" Xiao Chengjin said, glaring at Fan Qijun unhappily.
Fan Qijun came to the table and sat down, picked up the teapot and poured tea for Xiao Chengjin and Jiang Ruo.
He asked flatteringly, "Sir, what do you want me to do?"
Xiao Chengjin waved with a smirk on his face, and Fan Qijun subconsciously moved forward.
"I'm telling you, according to reliable information, the guy above will be coming to Jizhou in another month and a half to twenty days. You can do whatever you want!"
When these words were spoken, Fan Qiyun was so shocked that he almost fainted.
He pulled the corners of his mouth and stammered, "Master, you, you are not kidding!"
"If I lie to you, I'm a puppy." Xiao Chengjin picked up the teacup and drank the tea comfortably.
Fan Qijun: “….”
Why did the emperor come to Jizhou?
He's not here to deal with me, is he?
No, I have to send my whole family out of Jizhou tonight...
