Early the next morning, Cao Hao went to the Ministry of Officials, went through the procedures of "entrusting the Taifu Temple", and then went to the Yamen of the Taifu Temple near the Xidan archway.

Tang Zhiyu and Yi Duli have already arrived, but Lu Jingyuan has not yet arrived. According to the rules, the Taifu Temple and the military department belong to a semi-subordinate relationship, and the same is true of the Luan Yiwei Yamen.

Luan Yiwei is also nearby, led by Yi Duli, if Cao Hao, the new official, first visits the chief official of Luan Yiwei's yamen.

Although the distance between the two yamen is not too far, after all, it is not good to walk there to maintain official authority.

Cao Hao sat on the horse and listened to Yi Duli say: "Today's Minister of Honor and Guard, who is also in charge of the Minister of the Guard, is also in charge of the Minister of the Guard, Alinga, who is busy these days, and wants to run errands here." In the yamen over there, there are also Luan Yi envoys with Neyintu and Eqi who are higher than the adults. Well, both of them are yellow belts, and Neyintu is the prince of Zhenguo, Ertuzi, a third-class auxiliary general, and he also has the position of the commander of the army; Eqi is also a third-class auxiliary general, the heir of the auxiliary prince Efei, and the deputy commander of the forward battalion. Except for these three, the other official positions are lower than the adults, so they don't need to be ignored. ”

Alinga has long been the Minister of the Interior, and when Cao Hao was a guard, he saw it a few times, and he knew that he was the "uncle of the country", and he was in the limelight. Now, he has become the father-in-law of the seventeenth elder brother.

However, Cao Hao remembers clearly that this uncle has always had close contacts with the eighth elder brother and is known as the "Eighth Master Party". Thinking of his errand, which was regarded as "in the bag" by the eighth elder brother, Cao Hao's heart became more vigilant.

It was the first time that Neyintu and Eqi had heard of it, and Neyintu was nothing, and Eqi reminded Cao Hao of Efei. If it weren't for the creation of people, Efei hadn't wasted all these years, and he would have been full of descendants.

While talking, the two of them had already arrived at the Yamen of Luan Yiwei.

Ah Ling'a is not here, I heard that it is on the side of the Donghua Gate Luan Yiwei warehouse, and he will come over later. Neyintu and Eqi are there, and it looks like they have just entered the door.

Neyintu was in his forties, with a long beard, and quite a martial artist, unlike those who seemed to be pampered. Eqi looks more like a civil official, twenty-seven or eight years old, and speaks politely.

Today is already sixteen, and tomorrow afternoon the Yamen of Taifu Temple will send the elephants and horses needed for the ceremony into the city and hand them over to Luan Yiwei.

Then, Luan Yiwei arranged the honor guard for the emperor to travel, and there was nothing to do in the Taifu Temple.

Cao Hao breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this. He was really afraid that there would be too many things, and he couldn't understand it, so he tossed for a few days, but he ended up with nothing. It's just that he also wondered in his heart, if he is really so light, then how can everyone seem to be inseparable from this person?

He was puzzled, and a subordinate official from the Taifu Temple chased after him and said: "My lord, the horse supervisor of Changchun Garden just now sent someone to report that the two horses of the Queen Mother's dragon and phoenix car died of illness, and asked the Taifu Temple to make someone go to see it, and asked the adults to make up for the two horses, or to replace a batch of horses over?" ”

Cao Hao was very amused in his heart, it seems that he has really become a stableman, and he even decides to change two horses like this? He glanced at the subordinate officer, and instead of answering immediately, he asked, "What if it is according to the old example?" ”

The subordinate official replied: "If you go back to your lordship, if you follow the usual practice, or make up for it, maybe there will be a new horse." ”

Cao Hao looked at this person, not knowing whether he was unintentional or deliberate, and said slowly: "Which adult was in charge of this piece?" Tell the adult to take a run to Changchun Garden to see what kind of routine this horse needs to be handled. ”

The subordinate official was slightly stunned, bowed down and said: "My lord, this is the lower official in charge of this matter, because of the urgency of the time, I dare not be self-dictatorated, and I ask the lord to call the shots." ”

Cao Hao's expression did not change, he looked at the man, he didn't say anything for a long time, and finally said: "If the official is not mistaken, the Queen Mother should take the 'Dragon and Phoenix Yu' when she returns to the palace on the seventeenth." I don't know why this adult is in a hurry? ”

The official was hesitant, and he said a few words, but he didn't know how to argue, and went to Changchun Garden with a red face.

This subordinate official wears a six-grade uniform, and he is a servant from the six-grade Taifu Temple. If there is no one to instruct him, how dare he come and give the chief officer a dismissal?

Cao Hao only felt like eating a fly, very nauseous. This lack is really not what I want, but it's just a head of horse breeding, why are those people worried?

Alinga was late and didn't arrive until almost noon. Cao Hao told the situation of the Nanyuan Racecourse yesterday, and asked Alinga to send someone to bring the elephant horse to the city together with the officials of the Taifu Temple.

Alinga was born noble, the younger brother of the queen, the father-in-law of the prince, and his attitude was a little arrogant. However, the few words he said to Cao Hao such as diligence and errand sounded a little instructive and concerning.

In terms of rank, he is a hereditary prince, and he is not the same as the Cao family's birth title; In terms of age, he is Kangxi's peer and Cao Hao's ancestor, so naturally there is no need to be polite to him.

It's just that although he is a little big, the scale is just right, but it makes people not disgusted.

Cao Hao had seen his delicate appearance in front of Kangxi in the past, but now he saw that he was obviously arrogant, but he faintly held the elders' frame, as if he didn't treat you as an outsider, and he admired him very much.

If it were someone else, seeing Alinga's attitude, he would definitely feel close, thinking that this adult would teach him as a junior. Cao Hao only admires, this is the master who "makes people talk about people, and tells ghosts and ghosts", and is very good at buying people's hearts.

When the Yamen of the Luan Yiwei came out, Cao Hao thanked Yi Duli, and he went to Changchun Garden with his long escort. Since he is a new errand, he still needs to hand over the sign, ask His Majesty to see him, and listen to the relevant arrangements and instructions of the old man Kangxi.

As soon as he left the city, Cao Hao felt hungry, and said to Wei Hei, Xiaoman and others who followed him with some guilt: "It seems that today's meal will be delayed again." After a while, when you reach the other side of the garden, you will find a place where you can eat, and you will first make a cushion. If there are a lot of people over there, I don't know how long I'll have to wait. ”

Wei Hei just smiled and didn't respond. Xiao Man immediately stepped forward and said, "Uncle, don't worry about us, you look at ......" said, pointing to a package he was carrying, and said, "This is sent by Sister Amethyst, and it was said that grandma asked someone to prepare it." Because I know that the uncle doesn't like sweet, I didn't prepare snacks, and the water of baked cakes and beef is sandwiched, except for the uncle's, the small ones have a share! If the uncle is not in a hurry, he will encounter a tea shed in front of him, and he will be sharpened! ”

Cao Hao only felt that his heart was very ironing, and his daughter-in-law was worried about whether it was different.

* Xicheng, Cao Fu.

In the afternoon, a distinguished guest came to the door, and it was the mother of Kali, Jue Luo, and her granddaughter Dong Ejinghui came to thank her.

Although he is devout to the Buddha, he still loves Dong Ejinghui, a granddaughter who has no parents.

In the winter of the year before last, if it weren't for the rescue of the Cao Hao brothers and the tolerance of Lord Herui, how could Dong E Jinghui return to her grandmother safely? Therefore, the old man was very grateful to Cao Hao.

It's just that because Cao Hao and his wife are in office in Shandong, and the second son of the Cao family is guarding filial piety in the south, the old man has never had a chance to thank him.

This Wanshou Festival, all the people who entered Beijing were old officials, and Jue Luo didn't expect Cao Hao to also enter Beijing.

Yesterday afternoon, the old lady went to Changchun Garden to ask the Queen Mother for peace, and when she came back, she didn't hear anyone talk about it, and the Tao was that Cao Hao, the four-grade Taoist platform, took the princess Siqing, and she knew that Cao Hao had also returned to Beijing.

After returning to the house, the old lady inquired and knew that the wife of the Cao family and the lord of Herui were in Beijing, so she couldn't sit still.

Early this morning, Jue Luo sent a post. found out that her mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were both in the house, and in the afternoon, she brought her granddaughter Dong E Jinghui to the door in person.

I haven't seen her for a year, Dong Ejinghui's eyebrows and eyes have widened, and she still doesn't like to talk, but when she saw Chu Yu, she couldn't help but smile on her face.

Jue Luo lived in Jiangning for several years and was also familiar with the Li family. First said words of thanks, and then the two talked about how often they came home.

Dong Ejinghui looked at Chu Yu's waist and asked Chu Yu in a low voice, "Cousin-in-law, where is my nephew?" ”

Jue Luo also heard his granddaughter's question, and said to Li with a smile: "I heard that the county lord has added an eldest grandson to the mansion, and Mrs. Cao is really a blessing." ”

As early as when he was in Jiangning, the Li family had great respect for Jue Luo's behavior; Later, I heard my husband mention the matter of Jue Luo's royal answer, and I respected her a little more, and I was willing to get close to her.

Hearing Roche mention the child, Li smiled and said, "I ate something at noon, and I asked ** to go to the East House with my arms!" As he spoke, he instructed the maid to embroider the warbler: "Go to the East House to see, my brother is sleeping." If you don't sleep, call ** to bring it and show it to the old lady. ”

The embroidered warbler answered, and felt that Luo was just smiling, but Dong E Jinghui was looking at the door.

After a while, the embroidered warbler came back from the east house and said, "Madam, the master has slept." **Say, about two teas! ”

Dong Ejinghui was very disappointed, although she hadn't seen Tianyou yet, but she had long been thinking about this little nephew in her heart. Speaking of which, when Tianyou was in Chu Yu's belly, she was also taken care of by her.

Li nodded, turned around and said to Jue Luo: "I still want to bring my brother here, touch the old lady's longevity, but it's not a coincidence, wait for the next time to bring him over to salute the old lady." ”

Jue Luo said: "Mrs. Cao doesn't need to be so polite, although I haven't seen his father, I have heard that he is both good and good-looking. The county lord ...... here, "Speaking of this, he looked at Chu Yu who was standing aside.

The more I looked at it, the more familiar it felt, and I couldn't help but wonder if I had seen it somewhere. At this time, I heard Chu Yu whisper to Dong E Jinghui: "If my cousin wants to see Tianyou, let's go over, it's in the East House, it's very cheap." ”

Dong Ejinghui shook her head and said, "Since my nephew is asleep, my cousin will not go, so I don't have to quarrel with him."

Chu Yu replied with a smile: "Where is the noise?" What should I not do with a glance? Saying that, he confessed to the Li family and the Jue Luo family, and took Dong E Jinghui to the east house.

Seeing that Luo looked at Chu Yu's back, Li said with a smile: "She also thinks about Miss Hui in her heart, she chattered a few times on the road, and their sister-in-law got along very closely when they were in Shandong. ”

Jue Luo said: "The old man looked at the county lord but his face was kind, but he couldn't remember where he had seen it." The old man heard Jinghui's girl mention it, and the county lord is the most amiable person. Now it seems that it is not false that having such a daughter-in-law is a blessing for Mrs. Cao. ”

The Li family was not an eventful person, and his surname was soft and kind, so he was worried that his daughter-in-law was of noble birth and could not get along. After getting along, I realized that Chu Yu was a rare good temper, and she was very satisfied.

Listening to Luo's praise for Chu Yu, although Li was humble for a few words, he had a satisfied smile on his face.

East House, God bless you is sleeping sweetly. Dong E Jinghui saw his soft and cute appearance, and felt that she couldn't do it, so she stood by the side of the rocking car with a smile and looked at it for a while.

When she came out of the East House, Dong E Jinghui smiled and said to Chu Yu: "Cousin-in-law, he was still in his cousin's belly a year ago, and he didn't show his pregnancy; It's only been a year, and he's so old. ”

Chu Yu smiled and touched his belly, and replied, "Isn't it?" Now that I think about it, it's like a dream, and sometimes I really don't believe that he was born. Speaking of which, thank you cousin. In the two months of morning sickness last year, I didn't bother my cousin. ”

Dong E Jinghui said in a low voice: "It's nothing, cousin-in-law, don't say that." ”

Because of the mention of Dong E Jinghui, Li and Jue Luo remembered the changes the year before last, and they both felt a little boring, and they had fewer words.

When Dong E Jinghui came back after watching Tianyou, Jue Luo thanked Li and Chu Yu again, and then took his granddaughter to say goodbye, and Li and Chu Yu personally sent it to Ermen.

Not far away, the jade dragon stood at the edge of the garden with the jade spider in her arms, looking towards the second gate.

Although the jade spider looked a little haggard, she stretched her neck to look at it and asked with some curiosity: "Does my sister know what kind of distinguished guests came to make the wife and the county lord personally send them out?" ”

Jade Dragonfly shook her head and said, "Ask those who do what, and don't do our business." My sister should take care of her body well, so that the second master will feel distressed when he sees it......"
