Zhao Jin asked Zhou Xun to come in, and Zhou Xun handed the letter he just received to Tang Shi.
Tang Shi opened it and saw that it was Tang Feng's handwriting, and he was obviously a little anxious during the writing. After reading the letter, he said to Wei Cong, "I'll go back with you."
Zhao Jin saw his strangeness, "What happened?"
"Auntie is sick, I have to go back." Tang Shi looked calm on the surface, but Zhao Jin could see his nervousness.
"I ordered people to prepare horses for you, and I will return to Nanfeng County when I finish dealing with the matter here." Zhao Jin asked Zhou Xun to prepare the horses, while he packed up for Tang Shi.
Lin'an Prefecture is more than half a month away from Nanfeng County, and it would take more than ten days even if the horses and whips are fast. Tang Shi felt that the time could not be delayed.
"Tang Shi, don't worry, Madam Tang will be fine." Seeing Tang Shi's tense expression, Wei Cong comforted him.
Tang Shi also knew that it was useless to worry about it now. It would take at least some time for the letter to be sent here, that is, it has been more than ten days since my mother fell ill, and it will take another ten days when he rushes back. I just hope that my mother is not What a serious illness, I hope my mother will be cured when he returns home.
But Tang Shi wanted to go back to Nanfeng County without delay, but some people wanted to make trouble. It is estimated that the people behind this case saw themselves and Wei Cong appear alone and wanted to use them to threaten Zhao Jin, but they made a mistake in their estimation. Tang Shi was a more murderous existence than Zhao Jin.
Before, he could treat him as the other party giving him some fun, but now the situation is different, he is in a hurry to hurry, and these people somehow stop him and waste his time, how could he have the intention to tease them like before? He started killing directly in front of Wei Cong, without giving the man in black any time to think, and the horse didn't stop for a moment. Anyway, wherever Tang Shi passed, everyone died, and Wei Cong didn't even see Tang Shi. How to shoot, obviously Tang Shi's hand is still on the reins!
However, he was too lazy to think deeply, so he followed Tang Shi closely, not daring to fall behind at all.
After a few times, the people behind the scenes also tasted it. It turned out that a seemingly weak scholar actually possessed such advanced martial arts. Since they couldn't get through here in the Tang Dynasty, they gave up, and in the next few days, Tang Shi was finally clean, and the two of them did not rest much all the way, and went directly to Nanfeng County.
Tang Shi had supernatural powers, and he could handle it without taking a rest for ten days, but Wei Cong was a genuine and weak scholar. Of course, he couldn't help but rest, so in the next few days, Tang Shi directly tied Wei Cong to himself. On his back, he rode with him on his own, and he slept as he wanted.
So, when Tang Shi's horse was parked in front of Tang's house, Wei Cong was sleeping on his back. Tang Shi slapped him with a backhand, "Wei Cong, wake up, it's here."
Wei Cong woke up with a jolt, he opened his misty eyes, "Ah? It's coming so soon?"
Tang Shi untied the cloth that tied the two together, and got off the horse neatly, "Ride your horse and go home, I'll go home to see my mother first."
The door of Tang's house was not locked, and Tang Shi went in as soon as he pushed the door. There was no one in the yard.
It was just after noon now, when Tang Shi's mental strength swept away, he saw Liu Shi lying on the bed, and there was no one around to take care of him.
Just as Tang Shi was about to enter the main house, he saw Zhang Shu walking around the corner. When he saw Tang Shi, he was immediately surprised, "Young master is back? I'll go to the kitchen and bring some soup to quench thirst and heat."
"Aunt Zhang, wait a moment." Seeing that there was no gloom on her face, Tang Shi knew that there was no accident at home. After all, he would also secretly nurse his aunt and aunt. No matter what they said, it would never happen suddenly. seriously ill.
"Is my aunt okay now?"
Zhang Shu was at a loss for a moment, then suddenly seemed to remember something, shook his head and said, "Ah, it's alright, it's alright, young master, don't worry."
"That's good. I'll go see A-Niang." He said and went straight into Liu's house. Liu Shi was sleeping soundly on the bed, and she didn't notice when Tang Shi came in. Tang Shi looked at her ruddy face, and he was so sure that everything was fine.
Not wanting to disturb Liu's rest, he left the house.
Tang Ya, who was taking a nap, heard from Zhang Shu that Tang Shi was back, so she immediately put on her clothes and came to look for Tang Shi with the sour plum soup prepared in the kitchen.
"Uncle, why didn't you say hello in advance when you came back suddenly?" Tang Ya put the sour plum soup in front of Tang Shi, sat down and asked.
Tang Shi took a sip, the hot air in his heart suddenly disappeared, and the feeling of coolness spread all over his body, "Xiaoya, didn't A Feng write a letter to your Uncle Hong who asked someone to bring it to me? The letter said that A Niang was ill, I naturally to come back."
In Tang Ya's heart, the uncle has always been a gentle and elegant person, but now he looks a little embarrassed. He must have rushed back because of the letter.
"Where did the uncle come back from?"
Tang Shi poured a bowl of sour plum soup, "Lin'an Prefecture, the most prosperous place in the south, Xiaoya should have heard of it?"
Tang Ya nodded, "I read it in the book, but as far as I know, the Lin'an Mansion is far away from us, it takes about half a month to travel, how come Ah Feng's letter was sent out in less than 20 days. , Uncle is back?"
Tang Shi smiled, "Xiaoya, is everything at home okay?"
With Tang Ya's intelligence, it is not difficult to figure out that Tang Shi was rushing back from Lin'an Mansion day and night, and she felt a little distressed, "Uncle, everything is fine at home, in fact, the letter written by Xiaofeng was written by grandpa and grandma. Grandma is indeed sick, but it's just a little cold, and I think they have other things to say when they let you back."
Tang Shi also recalled, "Do you know what's going on?"
Tang Ya wasn't too sure, but she was good at observing, "One time, after grandpa came back from outside, he seemed very angry and didn't sleep well all night, so he asked Ah Feng to write this letter and send it to you the next day."
"Then do you know what Dad did that day?"
Tang Ya shook her head, "Just as usual, go to the street and have a look."
Tang Shi pondered for a few seconds, "Xiaoya, I won't bother when A-Niang is resting now. I'll go to the next door, Uncle Hong, to have a look. If A-Niang wakes up, you can go and let me know."
Tang Ya nodded, "don't worry, uncle."
When Tang Shi went next door, Hong Zhong opened the door for him, "Young Master Tang is back?"
Tang Shi followed him into the room, "Do you know why my father wrote to me? Did something happen?" He knew that Hong Zhong was well-informed, so he asked this question.
Hong Zhong had a look of embarrassment on his face.
Tang Shi's eyebrows moved, "It seems, is there really something wrong?"
Hong Zhong sighed, "Don't lie to Young Master Tang, this matter is indeed related to you. For some unknown reason, rumors suddenly spread about you and Young Master in Nanfeng County. Say yes, say yes..."
"Said that I have a close relationship with Commander Wei? Not only that, but also that I have an unclear relationship with Commander Wei?" Tang Shi asked him back.
Hong Zhong nodded, "Roughly so."
"Do you know who spread the rumors?"
Hong Zhong has a solemn face, "I don't know."
Tang Shi smiled, "But that's fine. I just don't know how to mention this to my family. Since someone told it for me, I'll save some trouble."
Hearing this, Hong Zhong couldn't help showing a smile, "Young Master Tang has such a generous heart, if he knew about it, he would definitely be happy."
Tang Shi sighed, "What's the use of being relieved, maybe I will be repaired by my parents when I go back."
Hong Zhong shook his head, "I don't think so, Uncle Tang and Aunt Tang are reluctant."
Tang Shi thought to himself: I can only hope so.
After returning home, Mrs. Liu just happened to come over, and when she saw Tang Shi, she hurriedly asked for warmth, saying that Tang Shi was too thin outside, so she asked the kitchen to make some good dishes at night.
Tang Shi rushed back and didn't change his clothes until now, and the dust was all over the place. Liu Shi saw it in his eyes, and it hurt in his heart, "Stone, you go take a shower first, change your clothes, if you are tired, go to rest first and wake up. It's time to eat."
Tang Shi held Liu Shi's hand, "Auntie, I'd better not change my clothes first. If you and Dad beat me later, why should I change into a clean one now?"
Liu shi's eyes widened, "Who said they wanted to hit you? You are suffering outside, and it's too late for Auntie to be distressed. Why would she hit you?"
Tang Shi thought to himself: What's going on here? Why is it different from what he thought
"What about daddy?" As soon as he asked, Tang Qing brought the eldest brother and sister-in-law of the Tang family, the second brother and the second sister-in-law into the house, and the eldest brother specially bolted the courtyard door.
"Father..." Tang Shi whispered, looking at Father Tang's dark face.
Father Tang walked in front of Tang Shi, looked at Tang Shi for a long time, and suddenly sighed, his eyes were red, he reached out and patted Tang Shi's shoulder, "Stone, you are suffering outside! It's father right. I can't stop you!"
Tang Shi: Did something unexpected happen to him? Why is everyone looking at themselves with worried and distressed eyes
"Father, let's go inside and talk."
Tang Qing wiped his face, "Okay, you're tired when you come back, why don't you talk about it after dinner."
Tang Shi felt more and more strange, didn't Fang Cai Xiaoya tell herself that Dad was very angry? Why are you still looking at yourself with such distressed eyes
When Tang Feng and Tang Song went out to the academy, the entire Tang family sat in the room.
"Stone, if you have any grievances, just tell us, that Zhao family boy is so worthless! It's useless for me to treat him as a reliable brother!" Tang Nian slapped the table angrily.
Tang Shi: Where is this and where
Tang Ji was also extremely angry, "Stone, isn't that Zhao kid just a commander? Our family is not afraid of him! If you don't want to, we'll have to fight with him!"
When Tang Shi heard this, he finally tasted something. Could it be that his family misunderstood his relationship with Zhao Jin
"Father, Mother, you are thinking too much, Zhao Jin and I, I volunteered to be with him." Tang Shi tried to explain, but Liu Shi immediately burst into tears.
"Stone, A-Niang knows that you are having a hard time, but don't swallow all the grievances in your stomach, A-Niang is really hurting! If you're afraid, tell us secretly, don't make yourself wrong. !"
Tang Shi still couldn't understand that he was stupid. This is not a rumor at all, right? If it wasn't for Zhao Jin's intentional order, he would not eat for three days!
