Recommended reading: In the midst of the busyness, the Spring Festival of the 48th year of Wanli quietly came, and Li Hongyu did not go home but chose to stay in the barracks and spend the Chinese New Year's Eve with the officers and soldiers of the New Army.

On the morning of the first day of the Lunar New Year, a carriage came to the door of the barracks under the support of a dozen or so entourage, and after the curtain was opened, three beautiful women with beautiful faces got down from the carriage, led by Qin Yue, followed by Rou'er and Qin Yue's maid Xiaolan.

Since Li Hongyu can't go home for the New Year, then Qin Yue naturally has to come to the military camp to visit, Li Hongyu has not been at home for nearly two months, which makes her and Rou'er miss it very much.

"Military land, idlers are forbidden!" The soldiers guarding the gate suddenly lit up after seeing Qin Yue and the three of them, they had never seen such a beautiful woman, seeing the three of them walking towards the camp gate, a guard captain stepped forward and blocked their way.

"This is the fiancée of the Orchestrator." At this time, Wang Tieniu, who was following behind him, walked up and introduced Qin Yue's identity to the Wu Commander in a deep voice.

"It turned out to be Madame!" Wu Chang was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then hurriedly bowed to Qin Yue, "Madame, wait a minute, the little one will let people go to the general transmission and training to make the adult." ”

Qin Yue smiled slightly when she heard this, she knew that Li Hongyu had formulated strict military rules for the new army, and outsiders could only enter after confirming their identities through communication, so she waited patiently outside the door and did not feel unhappy because she was denied entry.

When Li Hongyu received the news, he was attending the New Year celebration of the new army on the colonel field of the barracks, and in order to enrich the boring life of the barracks, Li Hongyu carried out some small games, and the winners would receive prizes, and he naturally did this to enhance the cohesion of the new army.

"Why are they here?" Yu was a little surprised when he got the report, but he didn't expect Qin Yue and Rou'er to come to see him on the first day of the new year.

Then, Li Hongyu smiled and hurried to the camp gate, of course he was happy that Qin Yue and Rou'er could come.

"Look, fairy, fairy is coming!"

When Li Hongyu led Qin Yue and Rou'er to the public house where he worked, the soldiers along the way stopped their movements and looked at the two of them dumbfounded, they had never seen such a beautiful woman.

"Let me tell you, the fairy in front is the fiancée of the Orchestration Envoy, and the fairy in the back is the personal maid of the Orchestration Envoy!" Soon, someone pointed out the identities of Qin Yue and Rou'er.

"Wow!" This immediately attracted a burst of amazement from everyone, and their eyes showed a look of envy.

"Beauty with heroes, talents with beautiful women, let's make the adults both civil and military, and we deserve the blessing of this Qi people!" Immediately, a voice came from the crowd, and his words were full of awe and admiration for Li Hongyu.

This made the soldiers at the scene nod their heads one after another, Li Hongyu is not only the new champion of the Ming Dynasty, but also fought Nurhachi in Liaodong and fled the capital, he is both a talent and a hero, and he will definitely be favored by those beauties.

"Brother Yu, the threshold of our house is about to be flattened these days, and many people are inquiring about the affairs of the Customs Department."

After taking a seat in the room, Qin Yue smiled and said to Li Hongyu, "It seems that many people are interested in overseas trade. ”

"Overseas trade is hugely profitable, otherwise there wouldn't be so many people along the coast who risk losing their heads to engage in smuggling at sea."

Li Hongyu smiled when he heard this, he had already guessed this situation, the matter of overseas trade would definitely attract the attention of the government and the opposition, Ran Xingrang must have hid in the princess's mansion, so if outsiders want to hear the news, they can only go to the Li family.

Qin Yue came to Li Hongyu this time, mainly to bring him the news of Baihe Town, Qin Yue's father Qin De had already mobilized funds and was ready to win a quota for overseas trade.

According to Li Hongyu's plan, including the Xiangwangfu, the Chu Wangfu, the Qin family, the Li family, and Zhao Xin's Zhao family, in this way, five of the twenty overseas quotas were won, which was not only to prevent the fertilizer from flowing into the fields of outsiders, but also to play a leading role in overseas trade merchants in the future.

As a matter of fact, Li Hongyu has done a very fair job on the issue of overseas trade quotas, following the principle that the highest price wins, which depends on who has greater expectations for the prospects of overseas trade and who will pay a higher price.

"My lord, there is a Zhao Hanlin from the Hanlin Academy who is asking to see him outside the camp gate." Just when Li Hongyu was greeting Qin Yue and Rou'er, a guard came in to report.

"Zhao Hanlin?" Li Hongyu smiled slightly when he heard this, and immediately realized the identity of the person who came, except for Zhao Xin, the people from the Hanlin Academy would not come here on the first day of the Lunar New Year.

Since Zhao Xin is here, Li Hongyu naturally has to go to greet him in person, and when he arrived at the camp gate, he saw Zhao Xin wearing a red coat pacing back and forth in front of the camp gate.

"Brother Zhao, why did you come here?" Li Hongyu arched his hand to Zhao Xin and said with a smile, "Happy New Year, Happy New Year." ”

"Being alone in a foreign land as a stranger, thinking of relatives every festive season." Zhao Xin smiled slightly when she heard this, and also arched her hand to Li Hongyu, and then said with a smile, "We are both fallen people at the end of the world, I brought two jars of good wine, and we will not get drunk today." ”

As she spoke, Zhao Xin waved her hand, and the entourage she brought brought down two wine jars from the carriage.

"Okay, let's not get drunk and go home." Li Hongyu laughed, stretched out his hand and made a gesture of please, and invited Zhao Xin into the camp gate.

Since Zhu Wanting made the marriage clear to Zhao Xin, Zhao Xin deliberately avoided Li Hongyu, which made the two only meet in a hurry after Li Hongyu returned to Beijing.

Now, Zhao Xin took the initiative to come to Li Hongyu, and with Li Hongyu's understanding of her, she wanted to reveal to him about her marriage with Zhu Wanting.

Zhao Xin thought that she was the only guest who came to visit Li Hongyu today, but when she arrived at Li Hongyu's residence, she knew that Qin Yue and Rou'er were also here, and she was relieved after being a little stunned, as Li Hongyu's family, they should appear here.

"Brother Li, I'm getting married." After lunch, Li Hongyu led Zhao Xin to visit the barracks, and on the way, Zhao Xin found an opportunity to be alone with him, and told Li Hongyu a "good news" with a smile.

"Marriage?" Li Hongyu sighed helplessly when he heard this, and then pretended to be surprised and asked, "I don't know which young lady is so blessed to marry Brother Li."

”

"You also know this person, he is the Zhaoxiang County Lord of Xiangwang Mansion." Zhao Xin smiled and replied, "Originally, I didn't want to get married so early, but King Xiang was in a hurry to find his in-laws for the county lord, so I had to do things as soon as possible to make King Xiang feel at ease." ”

Although in ancient times, men were paid attention to weak crowns, that is, they only reached adulthood at the age of twenty, but the laws of the Ming Dynasty stipulated that men could marry at the age of sixteen and women at the age of fourteen.

Therefore, although Zhao Xin is not yet weak, she is already over sixteen years old, and her words to marry Zhu Wanting are in line with the laws of the Ming Dynasty.

"County Lord?" Li Hongyu pretended to be surprised and looked at Zhao Xin, "The county lord is rude and willful, if you marry her, don't think about stopping the family in the future." ”

"Although the county lord is a little willful, he is kind, as long as he coaxes her." Zhao Xin laughed when she heard this, and replied disappreciatively, Li Hongyu's evaluation of Zhu Wanting's "rude and willful" is very appropriate, no wonder Li Hongyu will stay away from Zhu Wanting.

"Brother Zhao is going back to Xiangyang?" Li Hongyu smiled helplessly when he heard this, if it weren't for his helplessness, he would definitely stop Zhu Wanting's crazy move, and then cheered up and asked pretending to be concerned.

Generally speaking, Yibin must live in the same place as the county lord, Zhu Wanting is the daughter of King Xiang, and the mansion of the county lord is naturally in Xiangyang City, so Zhao Xin will also leave Beijing to Xiangyang, so the only way to resign from his current position is to resign.

"The county lord said, marry a chicken and marry a dog with a dog, she is willing to accommodate me for my career and drift around with me." Zhao Xin smiled slightly, she naturally wanted to stay by Li Hongyu's side to help, how could she follow Zhu Wanting back to Xiangyang?

As for saying that Yibin can't serve in the officialdom, now that even Ran Xing has let this concubine be in charge of the Customs Department, then Zhao Xin can naturally stay in the officialdom, the key is to see the attitude of Emperor Wanli, and Emperor Wanli likes Zhu Wanting very much and also values Zhao Xin, so he will definitely not let Zhao Xin abandon the official and go back to be an idle guest of honor.

"That's very good, otherwise I'll have to fight alone in officialdom." Li Hongyu pretended to let out a sigh of relief when he heard this, and arched his hand to Zhao Xin with a smile, "Congratulations, congratulations to Brother Zhao for becoming a guest of honor." ”

"When the younger brother gets married, Brother Li must come to cheer."

Zhao Xin smiled when she heard this, and bowed back to Li Hongyu, a trace of loneliness flashed in her smile, she is not uncommon, what honor guests can do, if she doesn't do this, her matter of disguising herself as a man may fail, she can't always be single and always have to marry a wife, and Zhu Wanting, who has always been in love with Li Hongyu, is undoubtedly the best "wife" candidate and can help her keep her secret.

For this reason, Zhao Xin agreed to Zhu Wanting's seemingly crazy proposal after some weighing, after all, she always wants to get married, and she can't avoid this matter.

At the same time, Zhao Xin naturally knew Zhu Wanting's intention to do this, the reason why Zhu Wanting wanted to sacrifice lifelong happiness to "marry" her was to stay by Li Hongyu's side, this infatuation made Zhao Xin extremely admired, and it was also the main reason for her decision.

"Brother Zhao's family affairs, I will definitely be present to congratulate you." Li Hongyu patted his chest and agreed, "Brother Zhao, don't worry, I won't miss this happy event no matter what." ”

Zhao Xin couldn't help but smile when she heard this, Li Hongyu is now a busy person, but since he agreed, he will definitely appear at the wedding, which makes her feel a little comforted in her heart.

In fact, Li Hongyu was more worried about accidents at the wedding than Zhao Xin, so he had to go to the town in person and try his best to help Zhao Xin out of the siege, so as not to go wrong.

The next day, Li Hongyu entered the city and went with Zhao Xin to pay New Year's greetings to the leaders of the Chu Party and the Qi Party, and were warmly received by the leaders of the Qi Party and the Chu Party.

There is no doubt that among the new generation of Ming officialdom, Li Hongyu and Zhao Xin are out-and-out rising stars, and they belong to the best among the new generation of officials, so they naturally should be valued by everyone.

Not only the Chu Party and the Qi Party, Li Hongyu and Zhao Xin also met with the leaders and members of the Donglin Party and the Zhejiang Party, which can be regarded as worshipping the mountain gate and fulfilling etiquette.

After all, the matter of overseas trade will definitely cause a big turmoil, so Li Hongyu salutes first and then soldiers, so that even if he fights in the future, he can do his best to clean up the other party.
