After coming out, Su Daocheng was still arranging something with the Silver Feather Guards. After he finished the arrangements, he turned around and found that Xiao Lingling had come out at some point.
Seeing that Xiao Lingling was not in a good mood, Su Daocheng thought that she was frightened by the bloody scene here and felt a little guilty.
"How is it? Are you scared? Blame me. Blame me for not thinking it through. I should have taken the person out for questioning. Come on, let father take you out."
Little Bell did not resist and let him lead her hand and walk out.
She felt a little heavy-hearted because she knew very well that even if she went to those places, they would most likely be deserted and it would not have any effect.
As for Su Jingyao, her father has already taken action. Now she just needs to wait for her father to capture him.
By that time, the initiative will be in their hands, and they don't have to worry about that person not showing up.
Thinking of this, Xiao Lingling felt helpless and could only wait again.
After Xiao Lingling learned the news she wanted to know, she did not stay in the palace for long. She returned to her princess residence and waited attentively.
It was not until the third day that she received the news that Xue Zhining had successfully escorted Su Jingchen and those barbarians to the capital.
She had been waiting at the north gate of the capital city since early morning. Even Su Jingsheng was rarely allowed to wait here with a team of guards.
As soon as Su Jingsheng saw Xiao Lingdang, he couldn't help but complain, "Little Junior Sister, what's going on with our father?
I don't know what stimulated him, but he inexplicably called me and several of his younger brothers into the palace to teach us all day long.
I've never seen him so concerned before. I always felt it was weird, but I couldn't run away even if I wanted to. Even my mother started to keep an eye on me.
If I hadn't had something important to do today, I might still be detained in the Imperial Study."
Su Jingsheng's face was full of pain, but Xiao Lingling seemed to have guessed something and felt inexplicably guilty.
"Haha, Brother, maybe Father just missed you too much. He just wanted to find a reason to call you over to see him."
Su Jingsheng had a look of despair on his face, "If only it were really like this! We are given homework every day, and everyone's homework is different.
That's fine, but they even have to call names and do random checks from time to time. I'm really overwhelmed! I can't even finish memorizing all the medical books, and now I have to memorize these things!"
Xiao Lingling felt somewhat gloating, "Ahem, then the Emperor wants you to learn more. In the past, you were all in the Divine Doctor Sect, so he couldn't see you even if he wanted to teach you. So, just let him have his fun."
Maybe he'll get tired of it after a few days?"
Su Jingsheng sighed, "Oh, I hope so, otherwise if it continues like this, I will really go crazy."
Xiao Lingling doesn't think it will be over in a short time. She can even foresee her senior brother's busy life in the future. Tsk, she feels a little sad.
Of course, only a little bit.
They didn't have to wait too long before a team of carriages appeared in their sight.
The person riding the horse in the lead was Xue Zhining. When Xiao Lingling saw her, she jumped up excitedly and greeted her.
"Sister Xue! We are here!"
When Xue Zhining saw them, she breathed a sigh of relief without leaving a trace. She had finally arrived safely.
She had encountered various "accidents" along the way, and she was almost always on edge. Now, as long as the handover is completed, what happens next will have nothing to do with her.
"Greetings to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince! I have already sent the person there."
Su Jingsheng hurriedly gave him a fake hand and said, "No need to be so polite, Lieutenant General Xue. You must have been tired from the journey. Please follow me."
Xue Zhining nodded, and waved for the carriage to follow Su Jingsheng's team to the royal eunuchs.
This is a place where royal family members who break the law are imprisoned. It is very close to the palace and is guarded by special personnel.
The level of supervision here is naturally not comparable to that of ordinary prisons in the Ministry of Justice. To be imprisoned, one must have the emperor's personal order.
When they arrived at the gate, Xue Zhining had Su Jingchen and the others brought down.
For safety reasons, Xue Zhining drugged them along the way and kept them in a coma almost the entire time.
Otherwise, there wouldn't have been so many unexpected things. That's why, although the road was a bit chaotic, it was a relief that we were able to escape without any danger.
Su Jingsheng was not surprised by this. He ordered Su Jingchen and those barbarians to be detained separately and signed a certificate of imprisonment.
This also means that Xue Zhining's mission of escorting them to Beijing was perfectly completed.
After that, she could take a short rest and see if the emperor had any instructions. If not, she could prepare to lead her men back to the border.
"Sister Xue, come back with me to the Princess's Mansion and have a good rest. Wait and see. If the emperor summons you, then go.
The Princess's Mansion is close to the Imperial Palace, so it's convenient for you to come and go. How about it?"
Xue Zhining was not polite to her, "Okay, okay, then I'll go with you and let them stay in the inn first."
"Oh, Sister Xue, how can you and I stay at the Princess's Mansion while others stay at the inn?
Everyone can stay at the princess's mansion. There are plenty of rooms there and it can accommodate everyone. Besides, it's just a few days, so it won't be a big deal.
You've had a bumpy ride, haven't eaten or slept well, you can't afford to not rest up. You'll have to continue on your journey, so you need to take this time to recharge your batteries."
Su Jingsheng chimed in, "Yes, you can go and have a rest. The emperor should not have left the court yet. You can go back quickly to eat something and have a rest.
I reckon the Emperor will summon you this afternoon, so it's essential for you to wash up after such a long journey."
Xue Zhining could only nod upon seeing this, "Okay, thank you for your hard work, little bell."
Xue Zhining still likes to pinch her chubby little face.
Su Jingsheng wanted to stay behind to look after them, so he didn't go with them. Only Xiao Lingdang took Xue Zhining and the others back to the princess's mansion.
Only when she really arrived at the door did Xue Zhining understand what Xiao Lingdang meant when she said that the princess's mansion had many rooms.
She estimated that even if a hundred or eighty more brothers came, there would be enough room for them all.
In order to make them live more comfortably, Xiao Lingling arranged a yard for them in the front yard.
He also asked someone to boil water for them to wash up. After they had cleaned themselves up one by one, the food was already on the table.
Because there were so many people, three or four tables were set up in the dining room, with both meat and vegetables, and the meal was particularly sumptuous.
Xue Zhining was really hungry. Without saying a word, she picked up her chopsticks and started eating.
They are all soldiers, and they don't have so many rules. They eat very quickly, but it doesn't make people feel rude.
Only after everyone had eaten their fill did Little Bell have the chance to ask about matters at the border.
