Chapter 27 Go home to save relatives

Lu Zheng used Zhenyuan power to heat up the water in the wooden barrel and said to Jingyao with a smile, "I just draw a tiger according to the cat. The fire cloud palm of Jin Canyang will not be used at a glance."

Jing Yao curled her lips and said, "Then wash it quickly and don't waste any more time." After saying that, he closed the door and turned away.

After sorting out, the two asked the address of the second lieutenant's mansion. Xiao Er's eyes stared like copper bells, "Are you two distinguished guests of the lieutenant's mansion?"

Lu Zheng pointed to Jingyao and said, "This girl is the daughter of Captain Tong's family. Don't talk nonsense. Tell us quickly where the location of the captain's mansion is?"

Xiao Er listened and hurriedly told them the address of the lieutenant's mansion. After Lu and Tong walked away, they bit their fingers and said, "Good boy, it's amazing. Our shop also lives in the lieutenant's daughter!"

The shopkeeper heard it and put his hand on Xiao Er's head and said, "Stupid! You are a pig brain. She is the daughter of a lieutenant. How can she not know where her home is?

Xiao Er stroked his head and said repeatedly, "Yes, I was almost fooled. The shopkeeper is still well-informed.

Lu Zheng and Tong Jingyao walked there. Before a cup of tea, they arrived at the facade of the lieutenant's mansion. Four tough soldiers stood on both sides of the Zhuqi gate, staring at the people coming and going with their waist knives.

A small blue sedan chair landed in front of the door of the captain's mansion. From above, the plane was shrewd. The middle-aged man who looked like a master spoke an incomprehensible Shaoxing dialect and said to the guard, "I'm the master of the imperial palace. I want to meet Captain Tong if I have something to do."

A guard ordered him to wait a little and reported it. After a while, he came out of the door and ushered in the master in a six-grade official uniform.

Tong Jingyao said to Lu Zheng, "Let's go in, too."

Lu Zheng said hesitantly, "How can we enter this high gate compound..." Before he finished speaking, Jing Yao strode to the door of the captain's house and said a few words to the soldier guarding the gate. The soldier ran into the captain's house like flying.

Lu Zheng was puzzled when he saw a long history of the lieutenant's mansion coming out of it, wearing four-grade official uniforms and asking happily, "Who is Miss Jingyao?"

Tong Jingyao smiled and said, "I am. Uncle Fang, I vaguely remember you!"

The long history of this lieutenant's mansion, surnamed Fang Ziqian, has been accompanied by Tong Jingyao's father Tong Anbang for nearly 30 years, so Tong Jingyao can still remember its general appearance.

Fang Changshi looked up and down at Jingyao and nodded excitedly and said, "Like, like my husband's life!" Jingyao, I'm looking forward to bringing you back!" After saying that, he shed a few tears sadly.

It turned out that Jingyao's mother died early. Before going to Mount Emei to practice Taoism, she only lived with Tong Anbang. Tong Jingyao's eyes also burst into tears and said, "Uncle Fang, I won't leave when I come back this time."

"Okay, okay!" Fang Ziqian nodded repeatedly and said, "You have practiced Taoism, and you can do something for your father!" Hurry up and get in." After saying that, he had to lead the way.

"Wait," Jingyao smiled and said, "My servants also followed me all the way, and they must go in together." After saying that, he pointed to Lu Zheng with a smile.

Lu Zheng listened, pointed to his nose puzzledly and asked, "Me?"

Fang Ziqian saw Lu Zheng's appearance as a scholar and couldn't help nodding and laughing: "This is also worthy of being my lady's servant. Come with me."

Lu Zheng couldn't smile bitterly. Seeing that Jingyao secretly made a grimace for himself, he had to shake his head and followed them into the lieutenant's mansion.

There are several courtyards in this lieutenant's mansion. Tong Anbang did not build another house, so he lived here by himself. Since the long history, a total of 24 people have worked in their own office areas, and many office officials come and go in a hurry to deal with their military affairs.

The innermost courtyard of the lieutenant's mansion is Tong Anbang's residence. Fang Ziqian led the two to the study, ordered people to watch the tea, and then said to Jingyao with a smile, "Your father just came back from outside to supervise military affairs, and the master of the Taishi Mansion came to discuss something. I guess it will take a while to come here."

Seeing Lu Zheng sitting carelessly next to Jingyao, Fang Ziqian was a little unhappy and coughed and said, "You servant, don't know who you are because of your generous master. The rules of elders and children still need to be talked about.

When Tong Jingyao saw it, she suppressed her smile and shouted coldly, "Lu Zheng, I don't understand any rules. Don't stand up quickly."

Lu Zheng looked at Jingyao aggrievedly and had to stand up and walk behind Jingyao.

Fang Ziqian saw it and said with satisfaction, "That's right. You are also a scholar. Will you take the big exam this year?"

Lu Zheng nodded and said, "Exactly, Xiao is indeed going to take the palace examination."

Fang Ziqian said happily, "I like reading people the most. It's very good, very good. If you can be a Jinshi and No., I guarantee you to be a Cao official in the lieutenant's mansion.

Lu Zheng deliberately pretended to be flattered and said, "I thank you for your love first. This small trip to Beijing came for the champion.

Hearing this, Fang Ziqian couldn't help nodding and laughing, "Okay, okay, young people have this ambition!"

When Tong Jingyao saw Lu Zheng's plan, she acted more and more real. She didn't make fun of herself and hated it.

At this time, someone outside shouted, "Your excellency is there!"

Fang Ziqian smiled and said, "Jingyao, your father is here." After saying that, he strode out to greet him.

After a while, I saw a man in a Kirin official robe and came in elegantly. Jingyao saw at a glance that this person was his father Tong Anbang, whom she had not seen for many years. He hurried forward and choked and said, "Dad!" He threw his head into Tong Anbang's arms and sobbed in a low voice.

Tong Anbang is about 50 years old and tall. Although his hair is a little white, he can't hide his heroic spirit. He hugged Jingyao, patted her on the shoulder, and said softly, "Don't cry, don't cry. I have something to ask you."

Jing Yao looked at her father puzzledly. Seeing that he was not as excited and excited as he imagined, she couldn't help asking, "What does Dad want to ask?"

Tong Anbang thought about it and asked, "I forgot your birthday. You can tell me again."

Although she was full of doubts, Jingyao still listened to Tong Anbang's words and told her birthday.

Tong Anbang's face softened a little and asked, "When you were seven years old, we met a robber in Niutou Mountain. The leader was a one-eyed dragon. Do you remember?"

"Dad, you remember it wrong." Jingyao shook his head and said, "We are the robbers I met in Wuji. That man is not a one-eyed dragon, but he lacks an ear. Dad has forgotten?"

Tong Anbang listened and looked at Jingyao and refused to let go again. He came tremblingly, stroked Jingyao's shoulders, choked and said, "Daughter, you are really my daughter..." After saying that, two lines of turbid tears flowed down her cheeks.

"Dad..." Tong Jingyao could no longer restrain her emotions and threw herself into Tong Anbang's arms again, and the father and daughter cried bitterly.

Fang Ziqian also quietly shed tears. Lu Zheng was ready to comfort him. Suddenly, he remembered that his identity was "undecided" and had to stand still. He was happy that his father and daughter met again, and he was worried about his situation.

Fang Ziqian came forward and advised, "Master, you should be happy when you come back. Don't cry and ruin your health."

When Tong Anbang heard this, he stopped crying, looked at Jingyao's face, nodded and said, "Just like your mother, she is my precious daughter."

Jing Yao tried to remove the tears on her face and pretended to be angry and said, "That father still asked me repeatedly like an interrogationer."

Withatic Tong Anbang's explanation, Fang Ziqian hurriedly smiled and said, "Miss, you don't know anything. Meng Taishi is sinister and cunning. He regards the master as a thorn in his side and a thorn in his flesh. He has secretly attacked the master several times, but he didn't succeed because of his good defense.

"However, in recent years, Meng Taishi's mansion has recruited many monks. Once, someone pretended to be me and approached the master who wanted to plot evil. Fortunately, Master Jinghui of the Emei School gave him a mahogany sword. At the critical moment, the sword flew up and stabbed the pretender, and the master escaped. After hearing this, Jingyao understood why Tong Anbang interrogated him repeatedly, and his hatred for Meng Taishi was even stronger.
