Chapter 0416 It Wasn't Welcoming Me
Although Wang Ziteng's work is leisurely, if he really wants to find something to do, there will be many things to do.
Now that the river has frozen, you can't sit leisurely by the river to fish, and the weather is cold, so it's not so convenient to go outside. So, recently he was in the house, studying Bukui's affairs.
A few days ago, the imperial court sent more than 1,000 exiles, which made the number of exiles in Bukui exceed 10,000 for the first time in many years.
Wang Ziteng couldn't help but secretly feel glad for this group of rogues.
He has also been to other homeless matches, and the outcasts in Bukui are the best among all the matches.
It can be said that when you arrive in Bukui, unless a force majeure disease occurs, you can basically guarantee that you will go back alive.
The current Bukui distribution center, whether it is the food, living conditions, clothing, labor intensity, etc., is incomparable with other distribution centers.
Cong Xiucai implemented literacy education among the migrants, and each Guanzhuang provided technical training to the migrants, so that they could master certain skills, and after returning in the future, they could have a skill, which was a bright spot.
Jia Min's political achievements in Bukui are not only reflected in military and civil affairs, but also in all aspects of the economy and society, and also reflect the obvious style everywhere and at all times.
Wang Ziteng once spent nearly two years inspecting frontier affairs. Bukui was the most dynamic of the frontier towns he had ever seen.
This vitality is not only reflected in the stability and prosperity of the local military and civilian life, but also in the great attraction to the outside world.
A place where locals are fleeing is not going to have much vitality. Where everyone is in danger, there will be no stability, and no one will want to come.
If the frontiers were like this, the population would be smaller and smaller, and the frontiers would be more and more empty.
When the frontier is empty, the enemy country will take advantage of the void to enter, and the frontier will shrink more and more.
Everything in Bukui is the opposite. If it weren't for the fact that the Tatars were still in South Windura, it would be hard to see that this was a frontier town.
The prosperity here is even greater than that of many places in the mainland. Compared with many places in Jiangnan, it is not inferior.
Bukui Yamen also left a deep impression on Wang Ziteng.
In terms of quantity and quality, the officials and servants here do not have any advantage over other places.
However, compared with the old-fashioned spirit of the yamen in other places, the Bukui yamen seems to be full of vitality.
There are no redundant people here, everyone has something to do, and it seems that they are busy with official business every day.
There is no empty salary here, and every official has his own position and responsibilities.
The officials and officials here do not pay attention to pomp and circumstance, and the people are not afraid of them, but they have hardly seen Diao people here.
The yamen here is highly efficient and has strong execution, and can always do whatever you want.
How did you do all this?
Wang Ziteng became more and more interested.
"Shi Weng, Feng Ziying asks to see you."
Master Jiang came in to report.
"Please."
Feng Ziying came in, saw the courtesy, and didn't wait to sit down, then spoke.
"Good news for adults."
"Ziying, why are you happy?"
"Huaiyuan is back, he has brought His Royal Highness Chang'an back, and he is currently in the Erdaojiang military camp. I came to report it first. ”
"Really?"
Wang Ziteng couldn't sit still anymore and stood up. The voice of the voice has changed.
"It's true, Feng Zijing specially sent someone back to report the news. After a short rest there, they will return to Buqua. In addition, Huaiyuan also brought Baoyu back. Public and private, the best of both worlds. ”
"Okay, so I'm relieved, so I'm relieved, so I'm relieved."
Wang Ziteng was simply a little incoherent.
rescued the prince in front, which has already shaken the government and the opposition. The emperor came to the decree and praised the prince Teng.
The crown prince was rescued, so that the imperial court's position in the negotiations with the Tatars improved significantly, and the bargaining power was significantly enhanced.
Now that Her Royal Highness the princess is rescued, the court will no longer have any scruples in the negotiations with the Tatars, and will no longer be afraid of the Tatars' coercion.
Not only for the imperial court, but also for the prince's personal prestige, it is also a huge help and improvement.
In the case of the fiasco of the 150,000 army, the prince and the princess were trapped, and others were helpless, as soon as he came out, he turned the tide and won victory after victory.
When Baoyu came back, he also solved one of his major concerns.
Previously, his son Wang Xin was rescued by Wei Ruolan and them, although he was very happy, but the whereabouts of his nephew Baoyu were unknown, but it was always a knot.
After three days and two lands, letters from Jia Zheng and his sister came, asking about Baoyu. At this time, Wang Ziteng had a very headache and didn't know how to answer them.
Now that this thorny problem is solved, there is no need to be embarrassed anymore.
"How is His Royal Highness Chang'an's jade body?"
"I specifically asked, His Highness walked normally, his spirit and complexion were good, and he seemed to have recovered as before."
"Okay, that's good. Quick, arrange a greeting. ”
"Don't worry, my lord, the lower officials have already arranged it, I don't know if this arrangement is appropriate?"
So Feng Ziying told her about how to welcome His Royal Highness Chang'an.
"Okay, that's the arrangement, the wine and food will be grander in the evening, and it will be good for His Highness and Brother Min. Brother Min is really a talent. Let's go, I'll go with you. ”
At two o'clock in the afternoon, Jia Min and Chang'an and his entourage got up from Erdaojiang on time and returned to Bukui.
Although it was safe all the way, Feng Zijing still sent a platoon to escort His Royal Highness Chang'an to make a strong appearance.
Before leaving, Jia Min told Baoyu that Daiyu and her uncle were also in Bukui now.
As for his uncle in Bukui, Baoyu showed little interest.
If he had been told the truth, he would have preferred that his uncle would not have been here at this time.
Not only because of this embarrassment, but also because he has always been afraid of his uncle.
After walking for half a month along the way, Baoyu didn't ask Jia Min about the news of Wang Xin and Xue Pan who were with him. This can't help but make Jia Min's disappointment with Baoyu a little more.
Whether it is Wang Xin or Xue Pan, for Baoyu, they are all relatives and comrades-in-arms, and being so indifferent to their life and death also shows that Baoyu's heart is cold.
In the end, Jia Min told Baoyu the news that he had heard from Feng Zijing that Wang Xin had been saved.
Jia Min did this, not for the sake of Baoyu, but just to prevent him from leaving more embarrassment in front of his uncle.
On the contrary, as soon as she heard the news of Daiyu, Baoyu immediately became dancing. The excitement is palpable.
Before it was two o'clock, he even urged Jia Min twice, asking him to leave quickly, so that he could see Daiyu as soon as possible.
Before leaving, he didn't care about Tana, but Jia Min took people to help Tana and Jue Neng get into the car.
Along the way, Baoyu always wanted to walk in front, but every time, the soldiers blocked him.
It made him feel a little depressed.
"I'm the elder brother of your chief Min, why can't I go ahead? Even Li An can walk with him, so why can't I? ”
When the GIs saw him so verbose, no one answered him. I also heard that he was one of the 150,000 troops of the previous imperial court, and this time he was rescued by Chief Min, so I looked down on him even more.
It's just because he's the brother of Chief Min that it's hard to say anything about him, just blocking him from coming forward.
Although Baoyu's heart had already flown to Daiyu, seeing that Jia Min and the soldiers were ignoring him, he was helpless. I couldn't help but scold Jia Min in my heart.
Because the horseback was faster than the carriage, after walking for a while, the procession was divided into two parts.
A team of horseback riders went first, because it was too late to greet Chang'an at the West City Gate.
Now it gets dark early in winter, and before five o'clock, it's dark. Therefore, Jia Min and Chang'an led some of the soldiers to go first, so as to rush to the city gate as soon as possible to meet the soldiers and civilians of Bukui.
It was too dark, so dark that you couldn't see anything, and the effect of welcoming the ceremony was not good.
For these etiquettes to usher in, Jia Min has never cared.
However, Chang'an is a princess, and it is related to the decency of her and the court, so it is still necessary to pay attention to it.
The remaining Tzingler mother and son and Tana father and daughter, because they rode in the carriage, fell behind in the latter wave. Accompanied by a dozen soldiers, they moved forward unhurriedly.
Baoyu was supposed to stay with Tana, because she was anxious to see Daiyu, so she had to go with Jia Min.
When Jia Min saw him like this, he knew that he was already hopeless, so he didn't bother to talk about him anymore, and let him follow.
When we arrived at about five miles from Bukui, there was a wagon with a caboon on the road. Chang'an dismounted, and Baochai and Lichun were already waiting here.
Chang'an saw Lichun, and the two reunited after the catastrophe, and they couldn't help crying again. It was still under Jia Min's urging that he entered the car and was served by Lichun to change clothes.
At this time, Jia Min and Baochai met alone.
The two stood together, and Jia Min quietly took Baochai's hand.
Not far away, those soldiers were still there, Baochai was embarrassed, so he wanted to break free, but where he could break free, he had to let Jia Min hold it.
Although my heart is anxious and ashamed, it is full of sweetness.
"Do you miss me at home?"
Jia Min asked a little shamelessly, his expression almost rogue.
"Naturally, I think about it, and I always think about it every day. It's just that it's not like some people, as soon as they walk outside, they don't want to go home, and they make their families want to wear it every day. ”
"Baochai has wronged me, every day, I am also like an arrow, I want to come back as soon as possible, but I am ......."
"Fourth Brother Min, needless to say, I know you also want to come back early, but when you are outside, the family is always worried about you."
The two didn't say a few words of love, but they listened to Lichun shouting in the car, so Baochai got in the car and accompanied Chang'an with Lichun, temporarily acting as Chang'an's attendant. Jia Min rode a horse and followed the car.
When Baoyu saw Baochai in front, she wanted to come forward to meet her. Helplessly, the GIs didn't let him go no matter what he said. I couldn't help but complain about Jia Minlai again.
Seeing that Baochai didn't come to meet him, he couldn't help muttering in his heart.
Miss Bao turned out to be a water-like character, and she was married to a layman like Min Laosi, so she inevitably became a little dirty.
Soon arrived at the gate of Bukuixi, and saw a crowd of people pressed by the black, and when he walked in, he saw that there were officials, soldiers, and hundreds of people.
Baoyu's heart suddenly became happy.
It turned out that so many people came to welcome me back. It must be because my uncle is here and hears that I have come back.
For a moment, Baoyu felt infinitely proud.
At this moment, the carriage in front of him stopped, Baochai and the two women got out of the carriage and walked forward, and the crowd immediately cheered.
What's going on? Didn't they all come to greet me? It's hateful that this fourth Min Lao Si has come to this time, and he won't let me go.
"Get out of the way, so many people have come to greet me, and they are still here to stop me, what is the purpose? Are you not afraid that my uncle will deal with you? ”
"Greeted you? Jia Baoyu, you think too beautiful, right? It was to greet Her Royal Highness Princess Chang'an. ”
At this time, I saw the crowd in front of me, and the black pressure was overwhelming.
Her Royal Highness Princess Chang'an? Where did Her Royal Highness come from? Why haven't you seen it all this time?
It turns out that these people are actually here to greet others, not to greet me!
