Chapter 289: The Five Cities Move
The cold light of the fourth watch day attached to the iron clothes of the soldiers of the patrol camp in the city, reflecting their beards, and at this moment, there were also people from the patrol camp outside the city to search around.
As soon as the soldiers of the patrol battalion disappeared at the corner of the street, the men and horses of the Five Cities Division came one after another, and the flowing water continued to patrol the streets at night.
After handing over the five watches, the east jumped out of the fish belly white, the patrol battalion and the five cities of the soldiers and horses each sang gold to collect troops, the streets ushered in a short period of tranquility, and the old man who transported the water "squeaked" pulled the car by, and the hustle and bustle of the day began.
Qin Jiangming yawned and walked out of the door, the dark shadow under his eyes was fully visible, and when he saw the person sitting in the courtyard with breakfast, he immediately became energetic.
"Eighth brother is earlyβho!" Rubbing his sleepy arms, Qin Jiangming took the handkerchief handed by the little servant with tears in his eyes and wiped his face indiscriminately.
Qin Zhao pushed the porridge in front of him, "Didn't sleep all night?" β
"Don't dare to sleep, the emperor is moving a big mountain and throwing it on my back, if I don't move the mountain, how can I sleep peacefully." Qin Jiangming took two bites, frowned and called the maid.
Qin Zhao hurriedly asked, "This porridge is not the same as Seventh Brother's appetite?" β
"Fade out of the birds!" Qin Jiangming made no secret of his criticism, and instructed the maid to quickly take a plate of sweet sauce nectar, and turned his head to see Qin Zhao stunned at the porridge in front of him, as if he was ashamed, and instantly understood.
Eighty percent of this porridge was sent from Aunt Min's courtyard.
Qin Jiangming took a spoon and stirred it, although the porridge only had the taste of porridge, there were really a lot of ingredients in it, medicinal food!
"Eighth brother, don't care, this porridge is delicious, it's just that I haven't slept all night, and I drank a lot of tea, and my mouth and tongue have been numb for a long time, so I will inevitably have to eat some heavy side dishes."
Qin Zhao smiled when he heard this, "As long as the seventh brother doesn't care." β
After this article, Qin Zhao asked about yesterday's appointment, and Qin Jiangming sighed three times.
"A few old slippery heads of the Terracotta Division knew that I had no real job in Jinyiwei in the past, so they refused to obey me, and sang double reeds back and forth, relying on me not daring to do anything to them."
After that, Qin Jiangming punched his thigh, "Don't look down on Enyin, at least the little master is sitting taller than them all now!" β
The maid snickered in the back, Qin Zhao was better, and couldn't help but say, "Seventh brother has breakfast quickly, and I will go with you to the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses." If you want everyone to work together, you can't always have a pimple in your heart. β
β¦β¦
"Lord Hao has seen it, the newly appointed Lord Qin Qi and Lord Qin Xiao of Jinyi Wei have gone to the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division!"
Ren Shuhua and Shi Zhangbi entered the duty room of the Ministry of Rites together, and Lord Hao arrived one step ahead of them, and was putting a Xintao ancient porcelain bottle on the Bogu shelf.
"Look at it really, if my estimate is correct, the two Qin masters should go to the military department to see Lord Li after visiting the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division and the Imperial History of the City Patrol."
Ren Shuhua sat down with a smile, "That's what Master Shi and I said just now...... There is one less person in this room, it's strangely deserted, usually Brother Musha listened to our words, and he must come over and interject a word or two. β
Shi Zhangbi smiled and narrowed his eyes, like a thinned Maitreya Buddha, "If Lord Xu is here, he will definitely say that the people of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division and the patrol camp moved too much last night, and they made him have a sweet dream!" β
"Although we don't have to worry about the marriage of the third lady of the Ruan family for the time being, there is another one now, and it must not be sloppy."
Hao Tingmei handed the agenda set a month ago to the two of them.
After a moment of leisure, Ren Shuhua didn't have time to enjoy a moment, and when he swept the agenda, his face was inevitably a little tired.
"Choosing a concubine for the prince of Chengping is a big deal, and it is much more troublesome than Miss Ruan San's matter." Shi Zhangbi thumped his waist, and his mood gradually became heavy.
Ren Shuhua got up and went to the various windows to check, turned back and whispered: "To say something rebellious, our emperor is too lenient, and the moon elders in the sky are not as busy as him." β
"Don't talk about these, let's discuss the selection of young ladies with both appearance and character from among the officials of more than a few grades, as far as I know, the officials of the eighth grade are also staring at the position of the princess of Chengping Wang for their daughters."
"Eight pins!" Ren Shuhua sighed and hurriedly walked to Hao Tingmei's case.
"They really bought and sold the prince of Chengping as persimmons, and they didn't weigh how many catties and taels they had, not to mention how good their daughters were, with their grades, they couldn't match the royal mansion."
Shi Zhangbi said: "Those people are interested in the power of the Chengping Palace. The princess is kind, and although the prince often interacts with the princess, everyone can see what her conduct is. Although there is a sister-in-law at home, she is also reasonable, who doesn't rush to send such a family? β
Hao Tingmei knocked on the table and stopped the two, "Now is not the time to discuss this, the emperor and we are all focused on the matter of choosing a concubine, and we have never asked the prince." β
Ren Shuhua said: "When the portrait and roster are sent to the princess, the prince will be eye-catching, and those who don't like it will be removed." β
"If only it were that easy."
Shi Zhangbi walked over and sat next to Ren Shuhua, "Is there a hidden secret?" β
ββ¦β¦ Shizi Ye is not a good woman, this is what Miss Xiangqiao reminded me when she was in the capital. Hao Tingmei rubbed her eyes.
Ren Shuhua was surprised, and he could almost stuff a goose egg in his mouth.
"Isn't he a good manβ"
"It's inconclusive, you can't talk nonsense!" Hao Tingmei summoned the two of them close and discussed: "Right now, the third young lady happens to live in the palace, let's send a letter to the past, and let the third young lady help us find out the wind first...... If it's really as we guessed, think about it as soon as possible. β
β¦β¦
The commander of the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division served tea to Qin Zhao diligently, but Qin Jiangming was replaced by a small official.
"I heard that Lord Qin Xiao entered the palace with Shangshu of the Criminal Department a few days ago, and the lower officials knew that on this Qingyun Road, Lord Qin Xiao also stood in a place!"
Sycophants!
Qin Jiangming's lips squirmed, and he picked up the tea cup and drank tea to cover up.
"The commander has won the award, everyone is an official in the same dynasty, they are all sharing worries for the emperor, and Qingyun Road is naturally everyone's share."
Qin Zhao was not shocked to return the "praise" of the commander of the soldiers and horses, and he caught a glimpse of Qin Jiangming who had been looking at the command of the soldiers and horses, and the commander of the soldiers and horses turned a blind eye, which was really good concentration.
is worthy of Qin Jiang's "old slippery head" when he gets up tomorrow morning.
"I'm here today, firstly, to admire the reputation of the conductor for a long time, and to pay a visit, and secondly, to pull fiber for my seventh brother and the commander."
The conductor's face turned, and the teacup was slowly put down.
Qin Zhao continued: "Thanks to the emperor's insight, my seventh brother has the honor of temporarily serving as the commander of the Jinyi Guard, and together with the soldiers and horses of the five cities, the inspection of the imperial history, and the patrol camp, we will find out the arsonists who have been rampant in the capital recently. Since brothers work together, they should be twisted into one another. β
"What Lord Qin said is extremely true, but when you meet some high-eyed and arrogant brothers, it is inevitable that some people will talk behind their backs, this mouth grows on a person's face, and the lower officials are willing to restrain it, and they are unable to do it." His eyes frequently shot at Qin Jiangming.
