Chapter 2: Friends get together on the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival
"I have something to ask you. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info" Li Qiuhan walked in.
The subordinates were reporting the matter, and when they saw Li Qiuhan coming in, their tone was not good, but it was a beautiful Taoist aunt who was inconvenient to attack, so they could only look at the master.
Wu Fengao waved his hand and motioned for them to retreat. After a while, there were only Wu and Li in the room.
"The poor nun has something to do and wants to borrow some property from Gongzi."
"Well, I don't know how much the master needs, so I will order someone to serve it immediately." Wu Feng said.
"One hundred thousand taels of silver!"
Li Qiuhan's answer made Wu Fengao feel a little surprised, but it was just a flash of thought, and then said, "Please wait a while." Then he got up and walked to the bookcase, opened the secret door of the bookcase, revealing an iron cabinet of Ugin iron. took out the key from his arms, opened the cabinet door, took out a flat wooden box and walked to Li Qiuhan. "This is a hundred thousand taels of silver tickets for Baotong Firm, please accept it with a smile."
Li Qiuhan opened the wooden box, and it was indeed a 100,000 taels of silver ticket inside.
"Thank you!" After speaking, Li Qiuhan turned around and left.
Seeing Li Qiuhan go out, everyone returned to the room.
"Master Liu, you see that woman is holding a sword, and she is also practicing martial arts!" An old man in sackcloth leaned over and asked.
"What does it have to do with you whether others practice martial arts or not, usually let you practice martial arts, you hide in Tibet, and you don't fight for something!" Master Liu scolded with cross-eyes.
"If I practice martial arts, can I marry such a beautiful woman as a daughter-in-law?" The young man didn't care about Master Liu's scolding at all, and asked with a smile.
"Keep your mouth open, beware of breaking someone else's taboo and cutting off your tongue." Master Liu couldn't do anything about him, so he could only threaten.
"Don't be afraid, with Master Liu here, no one can cut off my tongue, isn't it!" The guy is still a scoundrel.
"When I couldn't help you, why did I get dizzy and pick up such a splash of you. It's a humiliation! After scolding, he turned around and ignored the guy and walked to the inner hall. The guy was one winter, when Master Liu went out, there was a basket on the side of the road in the ice and snow. Master Liu saw that he was pitiful and picked it up, and originally just wanted to pick up a handyman, but he didn't expect that after more than ten years of getting along, he gradually connected with each other, and he had already regarded him as his own son. How can this kid not learn no skills, do not read or practice martial arts, and is idle all day long. In response to the name given to him by Master Liu--- Liu Qiangzi.
Liu Hunzi was immersed in the fantasy of Li Qiuhan's peerless demeanor, and didn't care about Master Liu leaving at all.
"Young master, the carriages, horses and goods are all ready, and they are ready to set off at any time." Master Liu came in and bowed respectfully.
"Uncle Liu doesn't need to be polite, this trip is hard, and it all depends on Uncle Liu." Wu Fengao replied respectfully.
"The young master is serious, and the old slave must do his best." Master Liu quit after answering.
Li Qiuhan returned to the house, picked up the silver ticket and flicked it with his jade hand, and the silver ticket turned into ash in an instant.
"Young Master, the guests in the North Chamber have not returned for three days." A maid reported.
"Got it, arrange for people to clean it regularly, and it will no longer be enabled without my orders." Wu Fengao was writing a letter and did not look up.
"Yes." The maid finished answering and exited the door.
Li Qiuhan lived in the North Chambers for more than half a month, and rarely went out during this period. Wu Fengao just arranged for his subordinates to send vegetarian dishes regularly, and there was no communication.
During this period, something happened: the plaque given by the emperor on the door of the main hall of the Dongchang camp was smashed by someone in broad daylight. I know who it is. The East Factory made a fool of itself, and the civil and military forces of the Manchu Dynasty were secretly happy. The people from the Criminal Department and Jinyiwei also laughed when they saw Dongchang Fanzi and asked, "Why don't we help the Criminal Department (Jinyiwei) investigate?" ”
The emperor even issued an order to reprimand Dongchang for his ineffective work. Cao Shaoqin, the commander of Dongchang, asked for an order to go out of Beijing to pursue and was approved. Cao Shaoqin led the twelve leaders of the East Factory and more than 200 sons to leave Beijing, which was all the elites that the East Factory could mobilize.
Walking the group of eagle dogs in Dongchang, the ministers ran to tell each other, happy in shape, and looked at the people in Dongchang, just like looking at the lost dogs. But they didn't notice that in the eyes of Cao Shaoqin, the governor of Dongchang, there was no confusion of a lost dog, but a determination like a jackal.
The Wu family has two mansions in the capital: one is the main residence of the Wu Gate, which mainly deals with the affairs of the DPRK and China. The other is the Wumen Courtyard, which mainly deals with merchants and rivers and lakes.
At this time, Wu Fengao was taking a carriage to the main house. The capital is bustling, and it is August 15, and the streets are full of pedestrians. The carriage stopped and went, and Wu Fengao flipped through a few secret letters in the car idly. On the letter, there are only the words "Shaanxi and Gansu", "Lianghuai" and "Lingnan" indicating the place name, and there is no name of the recipient and no payment of the sender. The Wu family has been a high-ranking official for generations, and his protégés are all over the world, and there are many eyeliners in the rivers and lakes. Most of the letters were exchanged through official posts, and only top-secret letters were sent from the rivers and lakes to the Wumen Courtyard to be handed over to his father. Although there are occasional exchanges between the secret letters of the rivers and lakes, it is unprecedented for three letters to arrive at the same time like this time.
While he was thinking, a figure opened the door curtain of the carriage and turned onto the car. Wu Fengao put away the three secret letters with his backhand, and the servant who drove the car was Master Liu's proud disciple Ayi, if he was not an acquaintance, he should not be easily allowed to get into the car. But after all, MeSign is a big matter, and it is inconvenient for outsiders to see it.
"I finally ran out, but I was exhausted!" As he spoke, he sat down next to Wu Fengao. The person who came was dressed in a gray linen shirt, and his body and face were also stained with ash. "Fortunately, the Jinyi guards are guarding the main hall today, and Cao Shaoqin is not here, so it's really not easy to come out!" As he spoke, he picked up the fruit in the carriage and nibbled on it.
"Tonight, the Holy Lord's feast is full of ministers, won't the Third Highness go to attend?" Wu Fengao asked.
"No, no, no, from childhood to adulthood, every year, there is nothing new. I pestered Imperial Physician Xue to prescribe a prescription for me to be sick and recuperate. They all thought that I was recuperating in the palace, and I changed my clothes and ran out. "As he spoke, he kept looking out of the car window, as if he was afraid of someone chasing him." Today, you have to take me to have a good time, to see if the folk lantern festival is really as fun as the eunuchs and palace maids say, if it is not interesting, you have to go back and beat them board. Zhu Jinzhao grew up in the palace, but he was full of curiosity outside the palace, and often ordered the eunuchs and maids in the palace to tell him interesting stories outside the palace. The most listened to is naturally the Mid-Autumn Festival night party full of carnival in the city, compared with the Mid-Autumn Festival banquet in the palace many red tape, singing praises of virtue, has long made it fascinating.
"I can go, but I have to go home first, and I have business to do. In addition, the matter of leaving the palace is secret, and the third prince still needs to take a pseudonym to cover up his identity, so it is better to call him Zhu Xiaotian! ”
"Go, your name is Zhu Xiaotian! I'm going to call Zhu Dingyuan! Wu Fengao and Zhu Jinzhao have known each other for a long time and have long been friends. There are few scruples between talking and laughing, Zhu Jinzhao looks outside the palace, and his biggest wish is to be a majestic general who leads the army to fight and pacify the frontier.
