Chapter 949: Sending a Letter
Suzhou is hundreds of miles away from Kyoto, and the weather is cold and windy, so it is difficult for people to help deliver letters.
But the four words of Chonglao Guogong are enough for Young Master Lin to make this trip.
Although Mrs. Lin was reluctant to let her son endure hardships and was afraid that she would encounter danger all the way to Beijing, Su Jin sent a Duan Yan as soon as she made a move, and sent a letter to Chonglao Guogong, which was enough to prove that her identity was not ordinary.
Lord Lin was demoted, and Mrs. Lin has been looking forward to the day when he will be reinstated, how can she miss this opportunity to come to the door and talk to the old man?
Mrs. Lin looked at Lord Lin, "I think it's better for you to deliver this letter, right?" ”
Lord Lin frowned and said, "How can this be done, what Gongzi Xie entrusted our son to do, how can it be appropriate for me to send it?" ”
"What if you are like you and you are the media, and let Xun'er go to show others?"
The four maids covered their mouths and smiled.
Mrs. Lin has the heart to strangle Lord Lin to death.
However, Gongzi Xie was young, and the letter he wanted to send was not a big deal, so Mrs. Lin dispelled this idea.
Since it was an unimportant letter, Mrs. Lin told Young Master Lin to be careful when he went out.
Young Master Lin set off for Kyoto with his little servant early the next morning.
Although Mrs. Lin told him not to be tired, Young Master Lin felt that the letter that Su Jin asked him to send was very important, and he didn't dare to delay.
Two people and four horses, riding alternately on the road.
In addition to eating and sleeping, non-stop.
The little guy was tired and almost got on the back of the horse, and said, "Young master, do we need to rush so hard?" ”
"What if it's a big deal?" Young Master Lin said.
"But what if not?" The little guy said.
"If not, I'll allow you to sleep for two days."
“……。”
What can the little guy do, he can only grit his teeth and follow his eldest young master towards Kyoto.
The burning of grain and grass is a major event, although it may not be possible to catch the arsonist, but this matter must be reported to the court as soon as possible.
Young Master Lin, no matter how fast they ran, they couldn't be as fast as the messenger who set off to deliver the news to Beijing two days in advance.
When the emperor learned that the grain and grass had been burned, he was furious.
The people of the DPRK and China were panicked.
The treasury is empty, the cost of fighting at the border passes is large, and so much grain and grass is burned, I am afraid that the grain and grass at the border gates will be unsustainable.
The soldiers are sleepy and the horses are lacking, even the generals can't carry the soldiers like gods for long.
Chong Lao Guogong recuperated for a long time, and after his body improved, he began to go to court.
The emperor understood his old age and infirmity, and allowed him to sit in the court.
This grace is unique in the Manchu Dynasty.
The emperor sent someone to investigate the case of the burning of grain and grass, and asked the household department to raise grain and grass as soon as possible and send it to the border pass.
……
After four days of galloping on horseback, on this morning, Young Master Lin finally arrived in Kyoto.
Looking at the towering city gate, I was a little dizzy.
It wasn't the first time that Young Master Lin had come to Kyoto, but he really didn't know where the Chongguo Mansion was.
Find someone to ask for directions, and then go to the front of the Chongguo Mansion.
When I looked up, there were three big characters on the plaque: Shangguan Mansion.
Young Master Lin, "......." ”
"......." ”
The little guy looked at Young Master Lin and said, "Young Master, why doesn't this look like the Chongguo Mansion?" ”
When the doorkeeper saw them staring at the plaque, he said unhappily, "Who are you looking for?" ”
"May I ask if this is the Chongguo Mansion?" Young Master Lin asked.
"It's not the Chongguo Mansion, is it your family?!" The little guy spoke very impulsively.
In the past, the Chongguo Mansion was like a city, but now the plaque is gone, and after the whereabouts of the Chongguo Gong are unknown, it is already a door.
In the eyes of the little guys, Young Master Lin was humiliating them by asking those words and sprinkling salt on their wounds!
Young Master Lin's little servant was also annoyed.
They came from Suzhou to deliver the letter, and the attitude of the people in the Chongguo Mansion was so bad?!
It's not worth the journey.
"Let's go, let's go, if you don't go, I'll call someone out to fight!" The little guy in the Chongguo Mansion said viciously.
Young Master Lin's servant dragged Young Master Lin away.
After walking away, Young Master Lin still couldn't believe it, and asked a passer-by again, "Is that the Chongguo Mansion?" ”
The passerby thought for a moment and said, "Yes yes, yes yes and no." ”
Young Master Lin was completely stunned.
"How do you say that?" Young Master Lin asked shamelessly.
I couldn't say a word about this, so the passer-by asked, "It depends on who you are looking for in the Chongguo Mansion?" ”
"I'm looking for Lao Guogong," Young Master Lin asked.
"Chonglao Guogong doesn't live here, he lives in the old mansion of Chongguo Mansion, you go ahead, turn a street and you will arrive."
The passer-by pointed the way and walked away.
Young Master Lin and the little maid looked at each other.
The two went to the old mansion again.
Looking up at the plaque, the two of them had black lines on their faces.
The plaque is there, but what's going on with one more below?
The little guy in front of the Shangguan Mansion just had a bad attitude, and now he doesn't even have a guard at the door.
Young Master Lin waited at the door for a while, and before anyone came out, he stepped up the steps.
Stepping into the Chongguo Mansion, he called, "Is there anyone?" ”
Young Master Su and they were about to go back to the house to take a bath after training, when they heard someone shouting, they ran over and asked, "Who are you looking for?" ”
"Looking for the old man Chong Guogong," Young Master Lin replied.
"Does he live here?"
Young Master Su nodded, "I've been living here, but I'm not in the mansion now, do you have any urgent business with the old man?"
Whether it's an urgent matter or not, Young Master Lin doesn't know.
He was a little depressed, why didn't he see a little girl, and a few children talked around him?
Young Master Lin looked around, and Young Master Su said, "If there is anything, you just tell me." ”
The little guy laughed, "Who are you?" ”
"I'm the little young master of the Dongxiang Hou Mansion," said the young master Su.
"I'm the Nine Emperors," the Nine Emperors said.
"I am the little young master of the Hou Mansion in northern Hebei," said the young master Shen.
"I'm the little master of the Zhao family," said the young master Zhao.
The four of them were introduced one by one.
Any identity can be smashed and half killed by Young Master Lin.
Young Master Lin knew the Marquis of Jibei, and the name of the Marquis of Dongxiang was even more thunderous.
He took out the letter from his arms, and Young Master Su looked at the handwriting on it.
It looks familiar.
Young Master Lin said, "Brother Xie asked me to send a letter to the old man and asked me to hand it over to him personally." ”
"Brother Xie?"
"My brother-in-law?" Young Master Su said excitedly.
The little guy in the distance walked over, and Young Master Su shouted, "Go and tell my mother, brother-in-law has a letter!" ”
Uncle found it?
The little guy happily ran to the inner courtyard.
Young Master Su pulled Young Master Lin to the inner courtyard.
Tang was doing embroidery work, and when he heard that his uncle had sent a letter, he quickly put down the embroidery bandage and stepped out.
Looking at the maids and women who came around, Master Lin was under a lot of pressure.
The Tang family wanted to read the letter, and the young master Lin was embarrassed, "The little young master may be mistaken, the brother Xie in my mouth has a flawed appearance, and he has not yet married a wife, it should not be the uncle of the house, his letter ...... I can only hand it over to Chonglao Guogong. ”
Young Master Lin was entrusted with the matter of loyalty, and the Tang clan naturally would not embarrass him.
Young Master Su said that he had seen the handwriting on the letter, and it was Brother Xie, who else could it be if it wasn't a brother-in-law?
The Tang clan sent someone to find Chong Lao Guogong to come back.
Half an hour later, Chong Lao Guogong rushed back from the military department, and the young master Lin handed him the letter after seeing the salute.
Chong Lao Guogong took the letter, opened it and looked at it twice, and said with a smile, "It's Jin'er's handwritten letter." ”
"My sister's letter?" Young Master Su was surprised.
He was about to step forward, but was stopped by Mr. Lin.
Because the smile on Chong Lao Guogong's face instantly retracted after he finished speaking, only anger remained.
Tang's heart was raised, she was worried about whether something happened to Su Jin and wrote back for help.
Young Master Lin stood there, like a lightning strike, his face turned eggplant color.
The sister of the little young master of the Dongxiang Hou Mansion, isn't that the princess of Zhenbei Wang, the princess of Chaojinning?
He...... He......
He actually said he wanted to share a room with her?!
After Chong Lao Guogong handed the letter to the Tang clan to read, he took the letter back and said to Young Master Lin, "You follow me into the palace to face the saint." ”
After that, Chong Lao Guogong raised his feet and left.
Young Master Lin stubbornly followed behind.
