Chapter 182 Arrival in the Capital

Since you are going to Beijing to study.

Qin Chi told his parents that night.

Boss Qin had no objection, but Li was unhappy after hearing it.

"Da Lang, do you really have to go?"

Li stared at her son, worry hidden in her eyes.

Qin Chi said in a gentle voice: "I can protect myself, mother, please believe me for once. Only when the hidden dangers are resolved can you truly sleep peacefully."

"Then you have to hide your identity."

This is what Li is most worried about, "Those people thought I was dead, so we can live a peaceful life."

"Mother, it's been twenty years. People in the capital city have probably forgotten about it long ago. Maybe some people still remember a little bit, but it's nothing to worry about." Qin Chi didn't want his mother to always be burdened with the past.

Li's phoenix eyes were filled with tears. "You are right. It has been so many years. Maybe my enemies are dead. Who would still remember me?"

The past is too heavy.

Li didn't want to recall.

Boss Qin came over and gently hugged Li's shoulders, saying distressedly: "Wife, we don't need to pay attention to this brat. Even if our son is ruined, we still have grandsons and granddaughters. In the future, we can let our grandsons take care of us in our old age."

"father!"

Qin Chi's mouth twitched.

Song Jin lowered his head to hide his smile.

Li felt much better after being interrupted like this. She looked at Qin Chi who was pretending to be helpless, and thought that her son was a good person, but he was not very obedient when he grew up.

"Your father is right. This is a grown-up son who is no longer under the control of his mother." Li waved her hand to signal her son to get out of here. "Take good care of your wife on the way. Hu Zi and Niuniu's mother will take good care of her."

Grandsons and granddaughters are much less of a worry than sons.

He has been quiet and healthy since he was young.

Qin Chi knew that Li had agreed, so he said a few more words of concern and left with Song Jin.

The next two days.

The young couple are busy with their own things.

That is to arrange what to do after they leave.

For example, Song Jin's medicinal materials business was already on the right track, and with a master chef in charge, Song Jin only needed to write letters to instruct on some things.

She spent the rest of her time with her children.

Qin Chi went to the restaurant and set up two tables for a farewell banquet, inviting teachers and classmates from the academy, and later went to meet Helian Pu again.

Early the next morning.

As soon as day broke, the two set off in an ordinary carriage.

Old Li and Old Huo took turns driving.

There was also a maid and a servant among the entourage. They said to the public that they were newly bought from the pawnbroker, but in fact, they were the secret guards Qin Qi and Qin Ba who had gone from the dark to the light.

A maid who worked as Song Jin.

One who acts as Qin Chi's follower.

In the afternoon, the carriage met up with a caravan from Shun'an, and this time they would go to the capital together with the caravan.

There were hundreds of people in the caravan, and 60 of them were escorts. On the surface, they were escorting goods to the capital, but in reality, they were protecting Qin Chi.

Spent a day in a carriage.

Song Jin leaned against the wall of the carriage, not feeling very happy.

"Missing the baby?"

Qin Chi handed her a water bag.

Song Jin took it and took a sip, "Don't you want to?"

"Ha, I've only been away for one day, I don't miss it that much." Qin Chi was telling the truth.

"Then you have a really big heart."

Song Jin finished drinking the water and handed the water bag back to him.

Qin Chi plugged the mouth of the water bag, smiled and said: "Life is originally unpredictable, even family members can't live together forever. Madam, I just adapted earlier than you, but I'm not careless."

"Okay, I get it. I'll adapt as soon as possible."

Song Jin also understood this principle.

It's just inevitable that I feel a little sad.

It will take at least one or two years.

I can’t bear to leave my children, but I also have to look for the missing family members.

The group set out from Huizhou, taking only the official road, passing through a series of post stations and locations, including Yizhen, Yangzhou, Shaobo, Gaoyou, Huai'an, etc., passing through at least fifteen post stations. After walking for twenty days, they arrived at Gaochang Post Station.

This is the nearest post station to the capital.

We will be able to reach the capital tomorrow! Qin Chi said he would rest at the post station for a day so that everyone could recover.

Song Jin did not object.

Qin Chi was nowhere to be seen that day.

Song Jin vaguely guessed who Qin Chi was going to meet, because he left more than once along the way, and it was basically her who helped him cover his whereabouts.

It was dark, and Song Jin went to bed to rest first.

Qin Chi returned to his room in the middle of the night. Song Jin, who was woken up, turned over and continued to sleep.

Set off the next day.

Finally we approached the capital.

The branches and villages on both sides of the road became fewer and fewer, replaced by an increasing number of pedestrians and vehicles.

From a distance you can see the tall city walls and majestic city gates.

When the carriage entered the city gate.

Song Jin was amazed.

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

Outside the city and inside the city seem to be two completely different worlds.

The streets are wide and crowded with people.

The vendors’ cries of hawking could be heard one after another.

Various aromas waft into the air.

In his past and present lives, this was the first time that Song Jin came to the prosperous capital city.

Looking outside through the gap in the car window, there was a bit of curiosity in my eyes.

"Once things settle down, I will take my wife to tour the entire capital."

Qin Chi whispered in Song Jin's ear.

Song Jin smiled reservedly, "Then I'll wait for my husband to be free and take me out for fun."

Qin Chi curled his lips and smiled, "I definitely will."

Song Jin did not doubt Qin Chi's feelings at the moment. He might really want to take her out for a stroll, but she did not take it to heart.

Both of them came to the capital for important matters, and once they get busy, it is hard to say whether they will have time to relax.

The carriages and caravans were separated.

Stopped in front of a house.

Song Jin got out of the car behind Qin Chi. He looked up and found that the neighbor next door had opened the door and was looking at them.

Old Huo walked over, raised his hand and knocked on the door, and shouted, "Uncle Hong! Uncle Hong! Your Master Huo is back, come out and greet him!"

"What are you calling for? Are you calling for the soul?"

There was an old man shouting and cursing inside.

After waiting for a while, the door creaked open.

A lame old man came out, ignoring Old Huo who was standing on the steps, and looked straight at Qin Chi.

After a moment.

Without saying a word, he welcomed Qin Chi and others into the house.

There is a small courtyard at the entrance.

A well was dug in the corner of the courtyard.

Not far from the well, there is a mature peach tree. Under the tree are stone tables and stone benches, which is quite poetic.

The main house has one living room and two bedrooms.

One room is used as Qin Chi’s bedroom and the other is a study.

There are two guest rooms in the east wing.

The west wing is the kitchen, utility room, woodshed, etc. The backyard is the servants' room, as well as the storeroom and stable.

The yard is very clean and has been cleaned for many years.

Song Jinxian went to his bedroom to pack up the boxes.

Qin Chi should be going to see the lame old man.

Song Jin was very sensible and would not try to find out Qin Chi's whereabouts or secrets. But no matter what, the two of them had already been tied to the same rope.

Fortunately, I have someone in the capital this time, so I won’t be at a loss when I first arrive.

"Madam, I have brought some hot water for you to wash your face."

Qin Qi carried a basin of clean water into the house.

Song Jin pointed to the bathroom.

Qin Qi brought in the water, and Song Jin found a new towel to wash his face and went over.
