As soon as the people from the Ministry of Industry arrived, they began to take over the relief work.

Xiao Jin didn't immediately move Wei Zhongming and the people under him. It was also at this juncture that if everyone was arrested, there would be many things that no one would take over. Now that the takeover came, Wei Zhongming and his henchmen couldn't stay.

He will follow Su Ying and the others to Beijing to interrogate them.

Wei Zhongming had already prepared himself mentally, but he was still shivering when he was actually shackled.

"I beg the adults to save the lives of the little ones."

Xiao Jin glanced at him coldly, "Why didn't you know how to be afraid when you murdered the common people?"

Wei Zhongming and his men were put into the prison car.

Su Ying also took Zhou Qing into the carriage.

Zhou Xiangrong followed and got into the carriage behind.

When everything was ready, Xiao Jin got on his horse and gave the order to set off for the capital.

In order to speed up the pace, Su Ying asked everyone to speed up.

Zhou Xiangrong was sitting in the carriage, the bones of the jolted person were about to fall apart, her face was sullen, and her eyes and eyebrows were gloomy with displeasure.

On the road, there are still disaster victims everywhere, and they all went south to escape the disaster.

Because of the high speed, they took the official road along the way, and they arrived in Lincheng when it was dark.

The city guard of Lincheng had long heard that the Queen had gone to Los Angeles to provide disaster relief. Now that the disaster relief matter has been handed over to the Ministry of Industry, the Empress is about to return to Beijing. She will definitely pass by Lincheng when she returns to Beijing, so the city guard came to the city early Waiting to be greeted at the city gate.

Seeing Su Ying's team coming, Ma Chengshou stepped forward and knelt down to salute.

"My minister sees the empress."

The team stopped, and Su Ying's cold voice came from the carriage, "Get up."

"Thank you, ma'am, I have already prepared a house for my stay, ma'am, please."

From the start in the morning until now, except for the 2.5-hour break at noon, the rest of the time is spent on the road. Even though Su Ying is physically strong, she can't stand the bumps.

Ma Chengshou had someone tidy up a beautiful courtyard, and had everyone get everything ready early.

Getting off the carriage, Su Ying felt her body was still a little floating when her feet were on the ground.

"Your Majesty, this place can't compare to the palace. If you need anything, just tell me, and I will definitely bring it to you."

Su Ying glanced at the courtyard in front of him. At first glance, this courtyard does not have any luxurious decorations, but the few scattered furnishings look very valuable at first glance. These officials have no other skills, but the ability to flatter horses is really there.

"There is nothing special, just prepare the meals and bring them up, feed the horses and watch the carriages."

"Yes Yes."

Ma Chengshou also knew about Su Ying's temper, he didn't dare to neglect and offend him at all, so he hurriedly asked someone to deliver the prepared meal.

A table of Eight Immortals was filled to the brim, Su Ying could eat all of these and didn't say anything.

"Zhou Qing, go and rest, there is no need to wait here."

Zhou Qing retreated in response, and Xiao Jin walked in as soon as she left.

"Do you want to keep her by your side after you return to Beijing?" Xiao Jin asked, looking at the direction Zhou Qing left.

Su Ying tore off a chicken leg and was about to take a bite, when she saw Xiao Jin's bony hand in a blink of an eye, and put the chicken leg into his bowl with a twist of the wrist, "You don't like her."

Xiao Jin looked at the chicken legs in the bowl, her brows and eyes softened, it was rare for her to think of picking up vegetables for herself the first time she ate.

"Your person, keep it if you can use it conveniently." It just looks as annoying as Lin Zhuyu.

"Isn't she one of yours?"

"If you want it, it's yours." Xiao Jin didn't rush to eat, but picked up the fish on the table and began to criticize Su Ying.

His movements are serious and meticulous, as if he is doing something very important.

"Open your mouth."

A piece of ribs was delivered to his mouth, he smiled and glanced at her, opened his mouth to eat the ribs, she really missed him more and more.

Su Ying took a sip from the soup bowl, the hot chicken soup warmed her stomach.

"No matter what happens in the future, we must eat well."

Xiao Jin pushed the selected fish to her, "Okay."

Although Xiao Jin was busy in Luocheng those days, he would always eat on time according to Su Ying's request, and he didn't miss a single meal. Now it seems that he has a little more meat than when he first met, but it is still far from before.

A table of dishes, under Su Ying's request and her own efforts, was completely eaten.

After eating, Su Ying let out a sigh of relief.

The maid came into the room with tea, her eyes widened in surprise when she saw the bare plate.

When Zhou Qing came back to the house and saw Xiao Jin sitting with Su Ying, she felt a little strange no matter how she looked at it. This Lord Xiao is really unruly. Why is he still here with the empress at night? I'm not afraid of breaking it empress fame.

"My lord, it's getting late, the empress is going to rest, my lord, please go back."

"I still have something to discuss with the empress, you can step down."

Zhou Qing felt that what she said was already very euphemistic, why couldn't this person understand.

"Ma'am, do you want to take a bath?"

Before in Los Angeles, because of the drought, Su Ying felt guilty even after taking a bath, but now in Lincheng, she wants to take a good bath.

"Well, go get some water."

Zhou Qing took a look at Xiao Jin, and was even more displeased to see him still sitting still, he still didn't leave when the empress was about to take a bath!

The look in Zhou Qing's eyes really couldn't be ignored, Xiao Jin could only get up with a sullen face, and when he returned to Beijing, he would definitely let her go to the Laundry Bureau to wash clothes for a month first!

After taking a bath, Su Ying went to bed and lay down. She was indeed a little sleepy after a bumpy day, and she felt drowsy after lying down on the bed.

When she was drowsily asleep, she felt a figure approaching the bed, and after seeing him clearly through the hazy moonlight, she instinctively moved into the bed.

The next moment, she was hugged into a familiar embrace.

Su Ying closed her eyes and leaned into his arms, just as she was about to continue sleeping, her big dry hands with thin calluses fell to her waist.

Su Ying muttered in a low voice, "Sleepy."

"You sleep." The deep voice carried a fatal charm.

Su Ying opened her eyelids. He had already taken off the mask on his face. Before that, he aggressively threatened that when she was in the most selfless state, she must see his face.

What a childish man.

In the end, she was so angry that she woke up straight away, and if she couldn't beat him, then beat him hard!

When the movement gradually subsided, the two embraced each other and fell asleep without a dream all night.

Xiao Jin had already left when Su Ying woke up, Zhou Qing would come over in the morning, she got up and took the dress from the screen and put it on before making a noise to let Zhou Qing enter the room.

"Ma'am, did you hear anything last night?"
