The heavens start with letting the bullets fly

Chapter 559 Ruhai Jiamin Comes to Beijing

On April [-]st, the flowers are thin and the leaves are thin.The clay new Yanying is busy, and the honey-cooked bee is singing.

Now more than half of April has passed, and today is the day when Lin Ruhai, the envoy of Jiangsu and Zhejiang, arrived in Beijing. Early in the morning, Chen Zhao led Zhang Heqing, Han Xiaozhong and a group of old Yangzhou brothers to ride horses to Shishilipu outside Chaoyang Gate to meet him.

When they arrived at the inn there, after waiting for half an hour, Zhao Tianyu, the left servant of the Ministry of Criminal Justice, and Li Xunhuan, the new head of the Zhengshitang, arrived one after another to welcome Lin Ruhai and his party on behalf of the directly subordinate departments and the Zhengshitang.

Chen Zhao went over to greet the two of them.

"Chen Shaoqing is being polite." Although Zhao Tianyu was of high rank, he didn't dare to take it in front of Chen Zhao.

After all, Chen Zhao is well-known and well-versed in civil and military skills, and the group of people behind him are all Jinyiwei Qianhu, and they are with him without any shyness. It is better not to provoke such people.

Li Xunhuan was even more polite when he was walking in the Zhengshitang, others didn't know about Long Xiaoyun, but he knew about it, so he said with a smile: "Master Chen has a heroic spirit, he is a high-ranking official at a young age, he is really a role model for my generation."

Chen Zhao also politely returned the gift.

Near noon, a group of people came up the official road. The two people in front of them rode horses and held two vertical flags in their hands. On the left side, there was a letter: "Jiangsu and Zhejiang inspector Liu", and on the other side, "Earl of Fuchang".

Immediately afterwards, there were riders and steps, arranged according to the order, protecting one person in the middle, followed by six carriages, and more than fifty riders in the rear.

"Here we come, here we come." The greeters quickly lined up.

Chen Zhao and others followed behind.

The two flags got out of the way, and the two cavalry teams also got out of the way, and Lin Ruhai, who was surrounded in the middle, rode out on horseback.He is as elegant as a gentleman, with a deep sense of elegance all over his body.

He dismounted from his horse and cupped his hands and said to Zhao Tianyu and Li Xunhuan: "I have seen Mr. Zhao and Mr. Li! Jiangsu and Zhejiang Inspector Lin Ruhai has met you."

Zhao Tianyu and Li Xunhuan hurriedly returned the gift, and then each took a glass of wine and said: "Master Lin has worked hard, I would like to send an order to welcome you!"

Lin Ruhai turned around quickly, bowed in the direction of Miyagi, and said loudly: "Thank you, Shengen!" Then he took Zhao Tianyu's wine glass and drank it down, and then took Li Xun Huan's wine glass, and drank it down in one gulp.

After some salutes, it was Chen Zhao and others' turn to come forward to say hello.

"Master Uncle, you've worked hard all the way, you've worked hard."

Seeing Chen Zhao, Lin Ruhai smiled even more on his refined face.

"This journey is both by boat and by road. It's hard work. Brother Zhao is here, and you two, Heqing and Xiaozhong. I heard that you have been promoted to Qianhu, but Yunhong and Zaikuan are very happy. .”

Lin Ruhai said to Zhang Heqing and Han Xiaozhong with a smile, booed a few words, then turned to Chen Zhao and said, "Your aunt has had a tough journey, go and say hello."

Chen Zhao, and the others hurriedly walked a few steps to the van at the back, cupped their hands and asked, "Thank you, Auntie."

"Brother Zhao is here, Heqing and Xiaozhong are here too, it's good to wait at home, what are you doing running so far. I'm fine, I don't have to work hard." A joyful female voice came from behind the curtain, it was Fuchang Countess Jamin.

"Okay, Madam will leave it to you, and I will go to Beijing with the two adults, and we will part ways here."

"Send off, Lord Uncle, send off, Lord Zhao, send off Lord Li!" Chen Zhao and others clasped their hands on the side of the road, watching Lin Ruhai and the others guard their honor.He will be accompanied by Zhao Tianyu and Li Xunhuan to Beijing, and will directly live in the Xianliang Temple near the imperial palace. He will not be able to see his family until tomorrow when he goes to the Political Affairs Hall to report on his duties.

According to the old rules, local officials cannot stay in hotels or guild halls when they come to Beijing, because they will inevitably cause human relations and cause trouble.

Ordinary officials would not set up a house in the capital, and living in the homes of fellow villagers and colleagues would also be suspected of forming a party.

Therefore, most officials went to Beijing to report on their duties and lived in temples near the imperial palace.

But Lin Ruhai was Chen Zhao's adoptive father, so no one would say anything if he lived in the Chen residence.

When the group was far away, Chen Zhao and others hugged Jia Min's carriage and walked towards Chaoyangmen.Along the way, Chen Zhao rode behind the carriage and whispered to Jia Min.

"Brother Zhao is promising. In just half a year, not only was he a Jinshi in high school, but he also held such a high and important position as the Shaoqing of Dali Temple. Yu'er must be very happy."

"My aunt made fun of me. My uncle taught me all my skills."

"Hehe, I don't know how much your uncle has. You are a godsend. If Yu'er marries you, it will be her blessing."

"Eh?" Chen Zhao was deeply shocked by the toughness of this aunt Jia Min, and hurriedly whispered: "Aunt, Yu'er is only 13 years old, isn't it a bit early?"

"Brother Zhao, Yu'er is only thirteen, and you are already twenty. You came to Beijing this time just to settle things. So I don't have to worry about my mother?"

"The old lady of Rongguo Mansion? What does your aunt mean?"

"Mother sent a letter, inside and outside the letter, she wanted to marry Yu'er to Baoyu from the second brother's family, and wanted to marry Xiangyun, a girl from the Shi family, to you. So I was in a hurry to go to Beijing, just to let you and Yu'er set a name first."

"Thank you, Aunt, for your love." Chen Zhao said with a smile.

He entered the city before dusk and returned to Yingwu Viscount's Mansion.Sun Xiaodong took all the servants out to welcome the master's aunt into the house.When Jia Min entered the second yard, Lin Daiyu had been waiting there for a whole day, and when they met, she hugged her head and cried.

After crying for a while, Lin Daiyu recovered quickly. She took Jia Min's hand and said parting words for a while. After chatting about Changchang and Chen Zhao, she glanced at her mouth and said, "Mother, Brother Zishang In the capital city, there is a lot of good luck, firstly he took the charming and charming Xiangling girl as his concubine, and then he has four maids who are as beautiful as flowers and jade, I don't know how he has the heart to sit in the palace?"

Chen Zhao smiled faintly and did not explain.

In the courtyard on the left, Xiangling, Qingwen, Zijuan, Xiuluan, Caixia and others stood in the courtyard, welcoming Jia Min anxiously.

"The concubine has met his wife"

"The servant has seen the lady."

"You are Xiangling, you are really cute and cute, no wonder Brother Zhao accepts you into the house."

Xiang Ling Nuo Nuo said nothing.

"The four of you are also lovely people. I feel a lot more at ease when you are watching by my side. Brother Zhao's complexion is not bad. You are not hungry or cold. You have put your heart into it."

"Mrs., this is the job of a servant." Qingwen and Zijuan quickly bowed and replied.

"Duty is duty, but as an elder, I still have to reward what should be rewarded. I have a mink scarf here for Xiangling, and four fox fur jackets, one for each of you, to keep out the cold. "

"Mrs. Xie." The four bowed quickly.

When they left, Jia Min called Chen Zhao to the study room, and said privately, "Brother Zhao, see if you can hold on and act recklessly. I am so happy to be an aunt. No wonder Yu'er believes in you, I I plan to settle the matter between you and Yu'er after the master's state affairs are settled. I only hope that you will treat Yu'er better in the future for the sake of me and the master."

Chen Zhao hurriedly bowed and saluted: "Don't worry, Auntie, Yu'er and I will be of the same mind."
