Qian Jin was embarrassed when he saw the princess, so he didn't want to ask more. Today, the princess has told herself too many secrets, which is already a great love, otherwise she will be able to sort out the ins and outs of these in the Year of the Monkey.

"Auntie, don't work hard in the future, the sky is falling from a tall man. When the time comes, you and your uncle will be married, and I will wait for my aunt to give me a younger brother to play. Qian Jin remembered that the princess seemed to have cried when she first entered the house, and presumably what Princess Najing said when she came here made the princess sad, so she said something to comfort her.

When the princess heard this, a ray of red flew up her face. She glared at Qian Jin with disgust, and scolded with a smile: "Where do children know so much." ”

She is such a smart person, how can she not understand that Qian Jin said this because of Princess Jing. I heard her sigh and said, "My niece, although she is only two or three years older than you, her scheming can't even catch up with me, an aunt. Let's not talk about the upsetting. ”

Qian Jin saw that the princess didn't want to continue the topic, so he didn't want to ask more. Originally, he wanted to take advantage of the situation to ask more about King Ming, and looking at the princess's expression, it was mostly because it was difficult to be sandwiched between the first emperor and King Ming.

By this time, the sun had begun to set to the west. Qian Jin was worried that it would be too late to leave the city, and he was afraid that he would be harassed by the generals guarding the city again, so he got up and said goodbye. Because this is in the nunnery, there are many people, and Qian Jin is a male guest, so the princess is not good to send him personally, so she asked Hui Jing to send him out of the nunnery.

When he arrived at the edge of the lake, Qian Jin saluted Mrs. Huijing respectfully and said, "Mrs. Huijing, you stay!" The princess will take care of you. ”

Hui Jing glanced at Qian Jin in surprise, although she didn't say anything, there was a hint of strangeness in her eyes. For a long time, she was angry with Qian Jin because of Wen Xun's affairs, and she rarely had a good face for him. Hearing him say such a sentence for no reason today, a certain string in Hui Jing's heart was touched for no reason.

Without waiting for Hui Jing's reaction, Qian Jin turned around and walked quickly outside the city. By the time he arrived at the Daming Gate, there was no sign of the gate being closed.

Today's guard is still the cold line of the Chinese military governor's mansion. He saw a man running towards the gate of the city from afar, and by the time he could see the face of the visitor, a kind smile had been replaced on his face.

"Qian Shi said, run slowly, don't be in a hurry." Leng Xing waved his hand at Qian Jin and shouted.

Qian Jin was puzzled in his heart, and his steps slowed down, and he said from a distance of one zhang: "Commander Leng, you have to work." ”

Leng Xing waited for Qian Jin to approach, then grabbed him by one arm and led him to the foot of the city wall: "Speaking of which, there are still some misunderstandings between this commander and Qian Shi. ”

Qian Jin's mind turned for a moment, knowing that he was talking about the last time the city gate blocked him, so he smiled sweetly and said, "Commander Leng said that he was laughing, and the lower official doesn't remember any unpleasantness between the two of us." ”

"That's good...... That's good", Leng Xing shushed and asked for a few words before going straight to the topic: "This official has a nephew who works on an errand in the palace, and when it comes to it, Qian Shi is afraid that he still knows him." ”

"Oh? What is your name? ”

"Jin Wuwei Wupin guards Jin Duo with a knife."

Qian Jin was a little surprised when he heard the news. One is a guard with a knife, and a commander of the Governor's Mansion of the Five Armies, who doesn't seem to have much connection on the surface, but inside is the relationship between his mother and uncle. Perhaps this is just a microcosm of the intricate relationship between the Beijing officials.

At the moment, this cold line seems to have a friendship with himself. Presumably he had heard the news that Wang Shangshu had participated in the court and he had not participated. The more people you know these years, the more roads you have, anyway, there is no harm.

However, it is a little unreasonable for him to make friends with a servant of the Son of Heaven. It's different if it's changed to Jin Duo, young people are easier to communicate, and they are all people around the emperor, so it's easier to get together.

Thinking of this, Qian Jin laughed and said, "Speaking of which, Brother Jin and I don't know each other, and I'm planning to make friends in a few days." ”

"So very good", Leng Xing smiled with a smile, and made a gesture of invitation to the city gate: "Then the official will not delay you from leaving the city." ”

"Leave it at that. Find an opportunity to ask the conductor to drink again. Qian Jin arched his hand and said.

When he walked out of Daming Gate, he felt the lively and busy atmosphere of Qianmen Street again, and the whole person was relaxed. Today, I can finally ignore the in the court.

…………

When I returned to the courtyard, the west side was already full of red clouds.

At this time, Li Liang was squatting at the door playing with a branch, and when he got closer, he found that it was a swarm of black ants. It is estimated that he has been waiting for him at the door for a while, and he is bored to tease the ants to kill time.

"Hey...... Small plums. Qian Jin suddenly shouted.

Li Liang slowly raised his head, and Mu Ne's face gradually changed to an excited expression. I saw him open his mouth wide, and a shout popped out of his throat: "The master has returned home." ”

Qian Jin didn't scare Li Liang, but he was startled by his shout, so he feigned anger and said, "What do you look like." With that, they took him by the hand and went into the courtyard together.

The family is probably a little uncomfortable with Qian Jin not staying in the house all day, and they are chatting in the yard at the moment while waiting for him to come back for dinner.

Seeing the money coming back, Lao Qian Ying came out and smiled: "Are you back?" "His son went to court with those first-class officials, and his father, naturally had a light on his face.

Wen Shi came out with a bowl of hot tea and handed it to Qian Jin, and asked with concern: "Son, those people in the court are not difficult for you, right?" With her father's experience, she is most worried that her son will not be satisfactory in the court.

"How can I be, today is my first day in court." Qian Jin replied with a smile. Although he was intriguing with others outside, he didn't talk about state affairs when he entered the house, so as not to worry his family.

Bao'er moved a rattan chair out and invited her brother to sit down, rubbing her shoulders and knocking her legs, and after being busy for a while, she asked, "Are you comfortable?" ”

"Well, the technique is okay, but the strength is not enough, and you have to practice diligently in the future." Qian Jin replied with a serious matter. He said to Ding Wei's mother-in-law again: "Sister Wang, let's prepare to eat, everyone is hungry." ”

Wang answered, and went to the hall to prepare.

After the tea, the family was already seated around the round table, but the main seat was vacant. Qian Jin shouted to the old money to sit, and the old money shirked left and right. Qian couldn't get in, so he had to sit on the main seat.

When eating, everyone was silent. Qian Jin took a glass of wine to salute Lao Qian, Jin Taiming and Ding Wei, and they also drank the wine silently.

Qian Jin can be seen and understood. Today he went to the court for a day, and this official authority has not yet been cultivated, and the family has already regarded him as the head of the family. But has he really changed so much? If you get along like this every day, it's really panicking. However, he didn't plan to correct it at the moment, and it wasn't a day or two for everyone to live together, and they should get used to it after a while.

After dinner, Qian Jin called Li Liang to the study and asked, "Little Lizi, how are those pigeons?" ”

"Master, I've been raising it for a month, and I've already started to recognize the nest."

"Well, that's good." Qian Jin took out half a hanging of money from his pocket and handed it over, saying, "Take this money to buy sugar gourds to eat, remember to save some money." ”

Li Liang took the copper coin and went out with a cheer. Qian Jin Yanyan: Is this considered a cheap use of child labor?

Then, he invited Jin Taiming to the study.

Jin Taiming couldn't figure out what Qian Jin was calling him to do, and when he saw that he was writing something hard, he couldn't disturb him loudly.

After about two quarters of an hour, Qian Jin stopped writing and asked, "Brother Jin, how much silver do we have in our account now?" ”

"There are already more than 7,000 taels," Jin Taiming asked, "My brother wants to use money, and I will go to the money bank tomorrow to get it." ”

"It's not that I want to use money, it's that you want to use money." Qian Jin said with a smile.

"I want money?" Jin Taiming was a little dizzy by Qian Jin: "Brother, the wages you gave me are more than enough." ”

"That's right. Brother Jin, it's been more than a year since you came out, and my brother is afraid that you will miss your mother at home, so I'm going to give you a vacation to go back to save your relatives. Qian Jin touched his nose, and the chicken thief smiled: "And then by the way...... Do me two favors. ”

When Jin Taiming heard his previous words, he couldn't help but think of his mother at home, and his eyes were slightly red, and he also felt lucky to have such an understanding owner and friend. When Qian Jin said that he wanted him to "do two favors", his little eyes rolled, and he always felt that something was wrong.

Qian Jin didn't wait for him to react, and handed him two letters: one was for Liu Hu, Guanhaiwei; One is for Wang Youcai in the iron-making workshop.

Today's experience in the court gave him a sense of urgency, but also worried about his lack of intelligence. Everyone else came to the door, and if I didn't deal with it properly, I would almost suffer a big loss. Now that he has a little money, Liu Hu's Dark Night Organization can no longer be stocked. In addition, the flintlock pistol was the most effective individual combat weapon of this era, and he also began to study it.

Although Qian Jin had explained the matter clearly to Liu Hu and Wang Youcai in the letter, there must always be someone to take the lead on his side. After all the calculations, there is only Jin Taiming by his side at the moment. As for the junior brother Li Shiyin, he had to stay in the capital to help.

For Jin Taiming's ability to do things, Qian Jin is a hundred assured. Jin Taiming doesn't look at the usual hangers, he really wants him to be serious and deal with problems without ambiguity.

Qian Jin saw that Jin Taiming was still suspicious, so he said: "Brother Jin, after you go to your hometown to visit your mother, remember to go to Guanhai City." As for the things I entrust you, Liu Hu and Wang Youcai will talk to you one by one when the time comes. ”

After that, he took out a short musket from the cabinet in the study and handed it to Jin Taiming: "This musket is kept for you to defend yourself on the road, and when you arrive at Guanhai City, remember to hand it over to Wang Youcai, if he wants to dismantle or smash it, it's all his business...... You will go to Qianzhuang tomorrow to pay 4,000 taels of silver with you, and let the old man Yun of the Hongyuan Dart Bureau send someone to escort you...... Also bring a pair of pigeons. ”

Jin Taiming finally understood that this was not easy, so he asked pitifully, "Can you not go?" ”

"No, I'll leave in three days." Qian Jin said irrefutably.

Jin Taiming walked out of the study with the two letters and the short musket in his hand, and sighed in his heart: Master Qian's nature has finally been revealed, and he has fallen into the pit.
