Although Shi Jingqi was only a fourth-grade Taoist when he returned to Beijing to report on his work, his house was quite magnificent, and the place was also outside the Donghua Gate where dignitaries and dignitaries in the capital gathered, which made other officials envious for a while. Shi Jingqi naturally can't afford such a family business, however, he has assisted Feng Wuxian in the palace and the East Palace for many years, and after Feng Wuxian ascended the throne, the first thing he did was to reward him with his house and Jinshi background, and then promoted him step by step, which can be regarded as a typical "chicken dog ascending to heaven"

However, Shi Jingqi didn't care about the criticism of outsiders, the so-called talent and virtue were just the emperor's final say, as long as he could act cautiously, it was not a dream to be in the center of the court in the future.

On this day, Zuo Jinhuan hurried to the Shifu after leaving the palace, and visited for a while under the guidance of the housekeeper, and then arrived at Shi Jingqi's room. As soon as the two met, Zuo Jinhuan sighed and said with envy: "Brother Xuchang is really a blessing, not to mention that you are a little Taoist in this house, even if you are a feudal official on the side of the opening of the mansion, you may not be blessed." Look at the pattern of a few in and a few out outside, I don't know what luck you have gone! ”

Shi Jingqi is a person who knows Zuo Jinhuan's temper, and he doesn't bother to laugh with him, after the two of them sat down, he opened his mouth to explain: "This is the house left by an official who was attached to that master, and the emperor looked at it as a pity that it was idle, so it was given to me, so as not to gossip about others, after all, it is barely a chaotic minister." Although his words were vague, how could Zuo Jinhuan not know the details, the so-called official was nothing more than the former Jiumen Admiral Zhang Gan. Since Zhang Qian was bad, this mansion was naturally empty, but he didn't expect it to be cheaper than Shi Jingqi.

"Anyway. Brother Xuchang is a good blessing. Zuo Jinhuan shook his head and said, suddenly, his gaze became a little sharper. Ning Shen looked directly into Shi Jingqi's eyes, "I didn't expect it to be Brother Xu Chang going to Shandong to serve in Zhentai this time. You and I can partner together again. However, with all due respect, what kind of medicine is sold in the emperor's gourd, please remind Brother Xu Chang of one or two. ”

Shi Jingqi couldn't help but laugh dumbly, there was probably only Zuo Jinhuan in the world who would say such things so bluntly. In other words, as long as it reaches the ears of the emperor, there may be a charge of great disrespect. "Brother Xian, you are really too anxious." He shook his head and said, "The emperor just wants to train you, and he doesn't have any other meaning." Let me go to Shandong with you, but just because during Min Zhiyuan's tenure as political envoy, there were more bandits in Shandong, and law and order was not quiet. You have to use a lot of land, so be careful what you say in the future. In case someone else catches the handle, even the emperor will be embarrassed. ”

Zuo Jinhuan smiled apologetically, and then he quieted down. He couldn't see the emperor's aggressive momentum these days. However, he was not very interested in becoming the center. In the local area, he is a feudal official, and he can be far away from the emperor. There is no need to tremble all day long to figure out the holy will; But in the center of the imperial court, it is very different, people say that the prime minister is a seven-grade official in front of the door, and he is an official in the capital, even if the grade is high, the constraints are also heavy, and the action is like being on the edge of the abyss, like walking on thin ice, and it is not interesting to be tight. However, the Zuo family is such an only son as him, and for his holy family, his mother doesn't know how much incense he burns, and his father is nagging all day long, even the emperor's expectations, and he dare not live up to it.

"Alas, every family has a scripture that is difficult to read, so you have to get by first!" Zuo Jinhuan was helpless. The two of them didn't talk about business, they just chatted and chatted there, but it was rare to have a moment of leisure.

is also a staff member, and Nian Jiacheng's experience is much more bumpy. After all, he was still young, and he had been with Feng Wuxian for a short time, so after giving him the Jinshi background, Feng Wuxian first sent him to serve in the household department, but among the Hubu Lang of the fifth grade, he was also a few steps higher than those Jinshi who were born in the imperial examination. He was already careful about these matters, so the evaluation was outstanding in the past two years, but the wind was deliberately pressed, but the official rank still did not move.

Nian Jiacheng is also a smart person, and he doesn't dare to have any resentment in this, but just tries his best to do his part. Who would have thought that on this day, the emperor had another will, which was to make him go to Huai'an with Wang Feng of Jiajun to investigate the case of corruption and perversion of the law by the officials of the river governor, which made him mutter.

In addition to a head of the household department, he went with him, several of the most experienced veterans of the household department, plus a leading king of Jiajun, this trip to the Qincha team is really huge.

Nian Jiacheng thought that the emperor would summon him alone before leaving, but there was no news when he got on the road. It wasn't until he left the capital that Feng Wuxian smiled and handed him a secret letter, saying that it was something that the emperor entrusted him to hand over, which made Nian Jiacheng even more confused. When he was a staff member in Xiao Yunchao's mansion before, he also knew some inside stories about the princes in Beijing seizing the heirs, where would he not know the temperament of the wind and the city. However, the emperor not only chose this Jiajun King as a messenger this time, but also handed over the secret letter to this person, and the depth of the inside is really unpredictable.

The content of the secret letter is very simple, in addition to telling Nian Jiacheng to carefully check the current accounts of the river governor yamen, he also instructed him to prevent someone from leaking secrets, and in the end it was a few words of encouragement that were not salty or light. However, these things can be revealed at the time of summoning, so why should they be conveyed through the hand of the wind and no harm?

Nian Jiacheng was struggling over there, and Feng Wuxian was also pondering the intention of the content of the letter.

He was a cautious man, and after obtaining this thing from the emperor, he carefully disassembled it and examined it, for fear that there would be some fatal will. However, after really reading it, he was hesitant, and the words in it were insignificant, but it was an ordinary letter. Just in case, he even copied and peeled a copy as it was, and took it out from time to time to ponder, but he still didn't see anything famous. But he considered that Nian Jiacheng was the emperor's person, so he was a little more wary of him.

Feng Wuxian of the Qinzheng Hall had already anticipated other people's thoughts, and although he didn't know the reason why Feng Wuxian was so active, he wasn't ready to dig deeper. They are brothers to each other, and when he still uses this ninth brother in the future, he can't be too tightly restrained now. Nian Jiacheng was sent to follow because this person was quite cautious and acted in a fairly orderly manner, just to help Feng without injury when necessary. If he really wanted to send someone to spy on him, he would never use such an eye-catching role as Nian Jiacheng. As for the secret letter, it is just a suspicious strategy, and I am afraid that Feng Wuxian must be very troubled by it.

The wind on the throne couldn't help but rub his temples gently, he used to see that the first emperor was very organized in everything, and he thought that as long as the emperor's position was secured, it would be extremely easy, but it was really a hard work. If it weren't for the supreme authority and honor, I'm afraid there wouldn't be so many people in the world who would rush to sit in this seat. He thought of the previous article of Concubine De Lan's Clan, and his face couldn't help but be gloomy. Since he ascended the throne, this Lan clan has never stopped harassing him, and he is bent on getting Feng Wuyan out of house arrest. However, not to mention that the ban of the first emperor could not be easily changed, even for the sake of the festival of the year, it was impossible for him to easily forgive the sin of Feng Wuyan.

Feng Wuxian was pondering, but his eyes suddenly saw a figure looking outside the hall, and he couldn't help frowning. Xiao Fangzi on the side saw that his master's face was unhappy, so he hurriedly took a look at it, and also felt a little strange, so he rushed out in a few steps without waiting for orders. When he saw the person clearly, he couldn't help but be stunned again, only to see that the person was the personal palace maid who was smoking. As soon as she saw Xiao Fangzi come out, she hurriedly stepped forward and said: "Concubine Xun asked the slave maid to come and tell the emperor, saying that she had something important to report, and asked the emperor to go to Zhonghe Palace once." ”

Xiao Fangzi couldn't help but be surprised when he heard this, he must know that since Feng Wuxian ascended the throne, the more smoke has always been a regular step, and there are rarely such times to overstep, so he couldn't help muttering in his heart. However, since it was about the harem concubines, he didn't want to ask too much, so he agreed and signaled Xian'er to wait outside, and hurriedly entered the palace to report.

After listening to Xiao Fangzi's relay, Feng Wuxian also felt a little confused, and it happened that he was also a little tired, so he got up and said, "In that case, you will go to Zhonghe Palace with me." As he was leaving, he seemed to remember something again, and then shook his head in disappointment. For some reason, there is always some strange premonition in the wind without a trace, and it seems that there is something strange about the invitation of the smoke.

In the main hall of Zhonghe Palace, Yue Sheng was sitting there alone, his face was extremely pale, and there was a little loneliness and helplessness on his head. There was already a faint sound of welcoming the driver outside, but it seemed to mean nothing to her ears. The relationship between husband and wife for more than nine years, now in retrospect, seems as thin as paper. Maybe she is a good confidant, but whether it is in terms of intimacy or feelings, or in terms of heart, she is not as good as the other three. What Hai Ruoxin has is the infatuation and pampering of the original wind without a trace; Hongru has the fate and affection of being with each other for many years, honor and disgrace; As for the seemingly most inconspicuous Hai Ruolan, at least she has followed the wind all the way to Fujian without a trace, and she has loved her once without hesitation. She is the only one, who seems to be honored but has nothing.

Feng Wuxian didn't see the figure of the smoke among the people who greeted him, so he was a little careful.

Whether it is in front of or after people, the more you smoke, you are empathetic, and you have always been cautious of your duty, not arrogant or impatient, and rarely rely on your identity. At this time, she came at her request, and she categorically did not have a reason to be contemptuous, and the reason for this is really thought-provoking. He waved his hand to dismiss Xian'er, who wanted to go in to report, and let Xiao Fangzi stay outside the door, and then walked in alone.

Zhonghe Miyamoto was the dormitory of the imperial concubine He Xueming, so the decoration has always been plain. After Yue Qiqi moved in, not only did he not add any decorations, but even many of the original ornaments were removed, and it looked more like a widow's concubine's bedroom. As soon as Feng Wuxian entered the door, he saw Yue Qiyan sitting there in a daze, his face full of worry. Lingyun Zhiyi Without a Trace Volume 10 Shengping Chapter 4 Gao Zhi
