After eight or nine days, Guo Ye and his entourage successfully arrived in Chang'an.

At this time, the prophet of Chunjiang plumbing duck is the end of April and the beginning of May.

Outside the city of Chang'an, the wind blows the weeping willows and wiggles the waist, and the branches are green and green, just like a scene of spring flowers.

Entering the city, a group of people have cars and horses walking on Suzaku Street, because of the warmer weather, the Suzaku Street scene and the shops on both sides are bustling, attracting Wu Xiuxiu in the car from time to time to lift the curtain of the car, frequently poke his head out to enjoy.

This is her first time in Chang'an, and naturally it is also the first time she has seen the weather of this imperial capital.

Guo Ye looked at his wife with a curious baby's excited look, and remembered her life experience for no reason, and couldn't help but feel a pain in his heart, Xiuxiu was born in the imperial capital, but after so many years, she only set foot on the land of the imperial capital of Chang'an for the first time, and fate can really play tricks on people.

He secretly pondered, since Xiuxiu now knows his life experience, and Huo Guogong Chai Shao also returned to the court to be in Chang'an, plus the eldest grandson queen came in with another kick, it is better to take advantage of this return to Chang'an to solve Xiuxiu's matter together.

If Chai Shaoken lowers his posture, Xiuxiu himself will have no pimples in his heart, so let their father and daughter recognize each other, and let Xiuxiu recognize their ancestors and return to their ancestors.

If Chai Shao still has a pretentious face, hmph, then don't blame me Guo Ye for not giving face, even if the eldest grandson queen comes to lobby in person, it will not be good.

He thought about it all the way, Wu Xiuxiu was still unsatisfied with the appreciation, and the carriage and the Hu Cong brigade also slowly drove into Taipingfang and stopped in front of the Yizhou Hou Mansion.

Guo Ye took the lead in jumping out of the carriage, then pulled Wu Xiuxiu out of the car, stood in front of the mansion, pointed to the gate of the golden Hou Mansion, and said with a smile: "Madam, this is the Yizhou Hou Mansion, and it will be our home in Chang'an in the future." ”

At this time, there were already servants and maids in the palace standing on both sides of the gate, lined up from the door to the bottom of the steps, and a total of about 20 people gathered on both sides, bowing their waists at Guo Ye and Wu Xiuxiu and shouting in unison: "Welcome back to the house, welcome Mrs. home!" ”

Wu Xiuxiu was in Longxi and had seen the world in Yangzhou, but when she first came to Chang'an, she couldn't help but be slightly surprised when she saw the Yizhou Hou Mansion in front of her. She didn't expect that her husband would now have such a big family business under the Chang Settlement.

When he was stunned, he was shouted by dozens of subordinates on both sides, and he was suddenly a little caught off guard, so he had to endure stage fright and wave his hand calmly: "No courtesy!" ”

At this time, Guo Ye found that there were two brothers Zhang Jiujin and Wang Bajin standing in the direction of the gate, and he immediately understood in his heart that the feelings of these two living treasures were to return to the house quickly, and notified the people in the house to pose this scene.

Guo Yechong nodded to the two of them, expressing satisfaction.

Then he shouted to his subordinates: "Everyone go in, what you should do and what you should do." Today's performance Ben Hou and his wife were very satisfied, and when they turned back to the end of the month, they each rewarded five taels of silver. Remember, this is Madame's reward for you! In the future, all the affairs of the Hou Mansion will be obeyed only by the orders of the lady. Did you hear it all? ”

When the servants and maids heard this, they were naturally overjoyed, and after nodding their heads again and again, they thanked Wu Xiuxiu again: "Thank you, Madame!" ”

After saying that, the twenty-odd people hurriedly turned around and happily entered the Hou Mansion.

Wu Xiuxiu's coquettish eyes were full of love when she looked at Guo Ye at this time, how could she not know that this was her husband who was giving her grace and prestige, so that she could control this huge Hou Mansion as soon as possible.

Immediately, she looked at Guo Ye with delicate eyes, and said a blessing to her, and said softly with a sigh of relief: "Thank you, husband!" ”

"Hahaha, Madame is polite!"

Guo Ye smiled and said: "In the future, this is our home, and my wife has to take care of this family business for her husband, and our family has some other industries in Chang'an, such as fertile land, shops and other livelihoods, which are slightly involved." When I go back, I will ask Huang Aohuang to come to the house to meet you. ”

Wu Xiuxiu knew that her husband was going to entrust everything in Chang'an to her hands, and in addition to being moved, she was only full of responsibilities.

So, she answered and said, "Husband, don't worry, Xiuxiu will definitely take care of this home for you." ”

Guo Ye snorted, beckoned to Wang Bajin and Zhang Jiujin, and said, "Madame is returning to the Hou Mansion for the first time today, and the two of you will accompany Madame to walk around the mansion first, and be familiar with all parts of the mansion." ”

The two nodded and shouted in unison.

Guo Ye said to Wu Xiuxiu again: "Madam, let's not stand still, let's go to the mansion." ”

Accompanied by the two brothers Zhang Jiujin, and surrounded by a group of guards, the husband and wife entered the Hou Mansion one after another.

After entering the Hou Mansion, Wu Xiuxiu was accompanied by the two Zhang Jiujin brothers, and began to familiarize herself with the various courtyards and places of the Hou Mansion in Yizhou.

The Yizhou Hou Mansion was built by Guo Ye in imitation of the Jiangnan garden, which was better than the large place and beautiful scenery, and Wu Xiuxiu soon fell in love with this new home in Chang'an.

Guo Ye went to the study alone and was preparing to do some homework.

The so-called pre-study homework is not anything else, but some literature and classics about the Ministry of Rites, after all, he will go to the post of the left attendant of the Ministry of Rites early tomorrow morning, so he has to do some homework, otherwise he will go to the Ministry of Rites tomorrow and ask three questions and make jokes, but he will lose his adult.

Soon, he found the relevant literature on the shelf, and locked himself in the study to read it leisurely.

After a while, there was a gentle knock on the door.

Guo Ye looked at the sky outside the window, it was noon, thought it was the next person to inform the meal, opened the door and was about to go over to eat. Who knew that the next person reported that Master Ma Zhou and Ma Yuanju came to visit, and they were waiting in the living room.

Guo Ye couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, he hadn't seen Ma Yuanju for a long time, he was well-informed, and he actually knew that he was coming back like this.

Immediately, he hurried to the living room, and as soon as he entered the door, he shouted at Ma Yuanju: "Old Ma, I just returned to Chang'an, my butt is just a little hot, how do you know that I am back?" Haha, it's really rare to take the initiative to come to me. ”

Ma Yuanju's complexion was ruddy, and it was obvious that during the time he left Beijing, he had a good life, and he must have been quite moisturized.

Today, Ma Yuanju was dressed in a scarlet robe, stood up, arched his hand at Guo Ye with a smile, and said loudly: "Don't forget what my identity is now, hehe, what else do you think can be hidden from me in Chang'an City?" ”

Ma Zhou's current identity?

Guo Ye suddenly came to his senses, and laughed loudly: "Look at my memory, it's also right, now you have the final say in the Chang'an realm, no wonder you know it as soon as I go back to Chang'an." ”

At this time, after Ma Zhou's reminder, Guo Ye remembered that Ma Zhou is now a shotgun for a cannon, and he has been in the post of Yin of Chang'an Mansion for almost a year.

Chang'an Mansion Yin, it is true that what happened on the ground in Chang'an, he was the first to know.

After chatting and talking, the two maids each served a cup of tea and quietly retreated.

Guo Ye held a cup and motioned for Ma Zhou to drink tea, and after tasting it himself, he asked: "Old Ma, you hurried through the house when you heard that I was back, it couldn't be something, right?" Your old horse has always been on the Three Treasures Hall for nothing. ”

In fact, he still hasn't finished the second half of the sentence, thinking that when the two cooperated seamlessly in Longxi, it was usually Ma Yuanju who came to him as long as he came to him, and it was like reporting a funeral.

Ma Yuanju knew what Guo Ye's subtext was, and glared at him angrily, but now he was proud of the spring breeze, and he was even more comfortable in front of Yin in Chang'an Mansion, and he was not as sour and rancid as before.

So, he smacked Guo Ye half-jokingly and snorted: "You don't know the hearts of good people, so you can be kind to donkey liver and lungs." I didn't come to the door today to eat and drink with your kid, but to break the news for your kid. ”

"Breaking the news? Could it be that what happened in Chang'an? ”

Guo Ye suddenly became interested, and asked with a smile: "Which big family caught fire this time, or which adult's concubine stole someone?" Haha......"

"Phew, if you don't learn, you can't be serious, and now you're a waiter in the Ministry of Etiquette, why are you still so undisciplined?"

Ma Yuan glanced at Guo Ye and said in a low voice, "Do you know who the new secretary of the Ministry of Rites is?" ”

Guo Ye shook his head and said, "I have been busy in Yangzhou a few days ago, where do I have time to inquire about this?" Besides, no one from Chang'an sent a message, by the way, who is the new secretary of the Ministry of Rites? ”

Ma Yuanju said: "Cui Henian! ”

Guo Ye shook his head, indicating that he didn't know.

But when he heard this name, he inadvertently thought of his new enemy Cui Heling.

The two are only one word apart, are they relatives?

Suddenly, he immediately speculated: "Could it be someone from the Qinghe Cui clan?" ”

Ma Yuanju said: "That's right, Cui Henian is the younger brother of Cui Henian, the head of the Cui family in Qinghe, and the younger brother of a mother's compatriots. ”

Guo Ye saw that he had guessed correctly, and couldn't help but be surprised: "Good girl, it's actually him?" ”

Immediately afterwards, Ma Yuanju said: "Cui Henian has a son under his knees, surnamed Cui Mingzhen, I heard that he died in Yangzhou, and died in the hands of the Jianghu bandits along with the Zhang family in Gujing Lane that day. ”

Ma Yuanju deliberately bit the four words of the Jianghu bandits, stared at Guo Ye with meaningful eyes, and asked in a low voice: "Now, you should know who Cui Henian is, right?" ”

"Uh...... Clear! ”

Guo Ye's scalp suddenly went numb, damn, is Lao Tzu really destined to be a greedy wolf and kill stars, destined to follow the enemy like a shadow?

Grandma's, I didn't expect Gao Sheng Chang'an to serve as a waiter in the Ministry of Rites, and he actually met the unlucky guy Cui Yizhen's father, so counted, he is his killer.

It's good to die, this Cui Henian is still his top boss.

Tangled!

Guo Ye was already able to foresee the next years of fighting.

Especially early tomorrow morning, according to the rules, he will go to the Ministry of Rites early tomorrow morning to take office, and the first thing he will do is to meet Cui Henian, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, who is the top boss, and report to him.

He secretly wondered, tomorrow morning, when Cui Henian and Cui Shangshu see me, what kind of scene will it be? Or is it that the enemies are very angry when they see each other?
