On December 9, Zheng Xunrui arrived in the capital, by which time Dolgon had been evacuated from Gubeikou, and calm had been restored to the capital.

The devastation he saw along the way made Zheng Xunrui very sad, whether it was a battle or a natural disaster, it was the people who finally bore the pain.

There are 1,000 soldiers of the Zheng family army who followed Zheng Xunrui to the capital, all of them are soldiers of the pro-military camp, equipped with all Arab war horses, but it is impossible for a thousand pro-soldiers to enter the capital.

Back in the capital, Zheng Xunrui did not go to the official post according to the usual rules, but first went home to meet his parents.

Zheng Fugui, Ma and Sun have been living in the capital for several years, and they basically don't need to worry about their daily lives, they are at ease every day, and they look younger, but their children and grandchildren are not around, and they are still a little lonely.

Zheng Xunrui has long arranged a dark line to observe everything around his parents, and his parents are like hostages when they enter the capital to live, which Zheng Xunrui knows very well, and he also knows that once he has any abnormalities, the first person to suffer is his parents.

The dark line has also been investigated clearly, not far from where Zheng Xunrui's parents live, there are spies planted by Dongchang and Jinyiwei, who monitor every moment as neighbors, paying attention to Zheng Fugui and others' every move, and they are also among the subordinates in the family, and they have installed special people, which can be described as all-round control.

After Zheng Xunrui knew these circumstances, he remained silent, now he has not turned his face with the court, and I am afraid that he will not turn his face for a long time, it is a big deal to have different dreams in the same bed, so his parents will not be in danger for the time being, but the corresponding preparations must be done. That was when he was ready to act, and the first thing he did was to pick up his parents from the capital.

What is the so-called Jinyiwei and Dongchang's fanzi, Zheng Xunrui has not seen the dark line of Zheng Jinhong and Xu Wanghua's development in his eyes. has absorbed the people of Dongchang and Jinyiwei, including some arrangements and deployments of Dongchang and Jinyiwei, Zheng Xunrui can know that these Jinyiwei and Dongchang fans, in the final analysis, are backed by the emperor to oppress the people. There are not many real skills, and once the battle comes, these people will not be of great use.

Zheng Xunrui, who has crossed over, and Zheng Fugui, Ma and Sun and others, it is impossible to be truly intimate, which is also a reasonable thing, speaking of which they always have some estrangement between each other, plus Zheng Xunrui after the crossing, there is not much contact with his family, and the established relationship cannot go beyond life and death. I am afraid that the relationship between Zheng Xunrui and Zheng Jinhong and others exceeds the relationship with their parents.

Zheng Xunrui returned home, Zheng Fugui and Ma were very excited, the tension in the capital during this time, they felt it, they knew what happened, Zheng Jiajun turned the tide and drove away the Houjin Tartars, they also heard from various channels, this time Zheng Xunrui came to the capital, he will definitely get the emperor's reward. This is also their glory.

Zheng Xunrui can't stay at home for a long time, and he still has to return to Huai'an before the thirtieth year of the Chinese New Year's Eve to spend the Spring Festival with his wife and children, logically speaking. Since he came to the capital, he should accompany his parents for the Spring Festival, but emotionally Zheng Xunrui is unwilling, and he doesn't want to stay in the capital, a place of right and wrong.

There are still many things in Huai'an waiting for Zheng Xunrui to deal with, especially the recruitment of sergeants and how to solve the problem of military salaries and so on. These are all things that need him to make decisions, and Zheng Xunrui has other ideas, that is, on the basis of the Huai'an Firearms Bureau, a military academy will be established to train officers at all levels of Zheng Jiajun, including the team members, so as to truly ensure the unity of thought of all officers and men.

Zheng Xunrui also knew that the emperor would know the news of his arrival in the capital as soon as possible, no matter whether the emperor was willing or not, he was afraid that he would summon him in the fastest time, so he needed to be ready for everything.

Zheng Xunrui almost knows the situation in the capital, and Zheng Xunrui also knows some about the change in the emperor's attitude.

Zheng Xunrui returned home, Ma and Sun personally cooked and cooked, so that Zheng Xunrui could eat the meals they made by themselves, Zheng Xunrui is the glory of the Zheng family, and he is also the most outstanding son of the Zheng family in Xingyang, so he should enjoy such treatment.

Zheng Xunrui and Zheng Fugui entered the study.

Zheng Xunrui thought about it for a long time, it is said that it is a good thing to let parents live in an environment without worry, even if the sky falls, you don't have to worry about it, you can eat when you should eat, you can drink when you should drink, this kind of scene is of course beautiful, but the reality is not like this, conflicts and contradictions are always going to break out, they are going to appear, and besides, the parents are old, and some things should be warned in advance, based on this situation, Zheng Xunrui decided to have a good talk with his father Zheng Fugui.

After sitting down, Zheng Xunrui restrained the smile on his face and spoke first.

"My father has been in the capital for several years, and the child is relieved to see that the situation of his parents and Erniang is good, but there are some things that the child still has to talk about."

Zheng Fugui, who was full of smiles and satisfaction, looked at Zheng Xunrui and nodded frequently.

"Whatever Qing Yang wants to say, I will definitely do it."

"The first thing, important things in the family, or important discussions, just talk about it between your parents and Erniang, don't talk to the people in the house, and don't trust any of the people in particular, although some people are brought from home, but over time, anyone will change, that is, don't trust others at will."

Zheng Fugui's face slowly became serious, he is also a scholar, he used to go south and north to do business, it is impossible to say that he can't understand these words, but his life has been very nourishing over the years, and he doesn't think about so many things.

"The second thing, don't inquire about what's going on in the court, let alone talk about the government at will, when you meet someone talking about the government, try to avoid it, don't let others seize the handle, many people today are judging at every turn, talking about the government, as if they are very capable, they can see through the disadvantages of the government at a glance, in fact, these people have no ability, maybe they can find out the fault by watching others do things, and they can't do anything by themselves."

"The third thing, don't expose your wealth, don't let others feel that your family is very rich, this will not only be envied and jealous by many people around you, but will also arouse the associations of some adults in the court." ……

Zheng Fugui's face became calm, and after Zheng Xunrui finished speaking, he slowly spoke.

"Qingyang, do you think that I and your mother and Erniang don't think about anything every day, and we don't know anything."

Zheng Xunrui looked at his father and did not speak.

"We know a lot of things, including the contradictions between you and Zhang Pu and others, it's rare for you to open your mouth to remind me that we are old, we think of a lot of things, and we can see through some things, but all things are in our hearts, and we will not say it easily."

"All these years have passed, why did we come to the capital, the reason is actually very simple, you have a chance, your strength has grown, some people are not at ease, including the emperor is not at ease, you want to look at a few of our old bones, let you do things when you throw a mouse taboo, this practice is ridiculous and despicable."

"We are very attentive in the capital, pay attention to everything around us, but never say anything."

"I've been in business for so many years, and I haven't seen anything in the north and south, don't say that the people in the house can see it, just say that the neighbors around me, some of them behave abnormally, I think I can't see it, I'm young, I've never carried my wife, I can't see children, I always live alone, and I have a lot of money, how can such a person be alone, hmph, I think I can keep an eye on me by doing this, I'll let them take a good look."

"The tree is a big wind, I know this reason, don't affect you to do anything because we are in the capital, you are my son, no matter what choice you make, I and your mother and Erniang are unconditionally supporting you, what I mean is that I don't want to delay you in doing things, in case something goes wrong, it has nothing to do with you." ……

Sweat drops appeared on Zheng Xunrui's forehead, he thought that his parents didn't know anything, but in fact, his parents knew everything, but they didn't want to say it, they pity the hearts of parents all over the world, and their parents' contributions to their children are free.

Zheng Fugui's words made Zheng Xunrui unable to say anything, but it also strengthened his determination that once the situation changed, the first thing he needed to do was to take his parents to a safe place.

During the meal, Zheng Fugui took out the treasured good wine, patted the mud seal, and the house was full of fragrance.

Ma and Sun both drank with them.

At this time, Zheng Xunrui's hands trembled a little, in his impression, his mother and Erniang never drank, but now they have also learned to drink, which has explained everything, if it is not lonely, who will use wine to drown their sorrows.

At this moment, Zheng Xunrui suddenly blamed himself, he was thinking about his own career, thinking of his wife and children, and even thinking of Zheng Jiajun's soldiers and henchmen, but he rarely thought about his parents and Erniang, but his parents and Erniang always thought about his affairs.

This asymmetry says a lot about it.

Zheng Xunrui was drunk, very drunk, he hadn't been so drunk for many years.

When he woke up in the morning, Zheng Fugui was standing by the bed, his eyes were lonely.

"Qingyang, hurry up to the official post, the officials of the military department came to the house early in the morning, saying that someone came to visit you at the official post, I'm afraid they have already set off."

When Zheng Xunrui left, he could only tell his parents and Erniang to take care. (To be continued.) )
