Chapter 218 Glory Returns to Hometown

Li Shimin almost didn't think about it. agreed to Jiang Zhixuan's request to bring his family to work. In the past few years, especially in the last two or three years, Jiang Zhixuan has been getting together less and leaving more for a long time in order to run errands for him. And this time as the assassin of Hangzhou, it is not the kind of temporary tolerance, it is to stay there for a long time. Although Li Shimin has the intention of training Jiang Zhixuan and preparing for the future pilgrimage, he will stay there for at least four or five years this time, right? If Shaozi makes the husband and wife live separately for so long, not to mention Guanyin, even the people of the world will say that he, the emperor, does not care about human morality......

Moreover, Li Shimin has other ideas. The main reason why he transferred Jiang Zhixuan to serve as the assassin of Hangzhou was mainly to let him sort out the salt administration and iron administration in Suzhou and Hangzhou and even the entire Huainan Province. Li Shimin has long known that there are serious problems in the iron politics of Suzhou and Hangzhou, but because there are too many officials involved, and even faintly related to the crown prince Li Chengqian, and the rebellion of the mountain bureaucrats is getting more and more intense, so before that, Li Shimin has been holding back.

And now. The rebellion of the mountain wings has been completely quelled. It was at this time that Li Shimin received two impeachment stamps one after another, impeaching Shi Chen Wenyuan, the governor of Jiangnan Province, and Li Zemin, the deputy governor of Huainan Province, respectively. The content of the impeachment is that Chen Wenyuan and Li Zemin colluded with each other, deceived the superiors and subordinates, controlled the salt government and the iron government, disregarded the people's suffering, framed and framed each other, and took advantage of the crime, with a total of 39 counts......

If such a thing is sent to the Qin Mission, I am afraid that it will cause an uproar in the world. Jiangnan Province and Huainan Province, this is the richest place in the entire Tang Dynasty except for Guannei Road, and the things involved include a three-rank governor Shi, and a second-rank deputy protector. Even if a messenger is dispatched, I am afraid that there will be many obstacles in the investigation of this case. Therefore, this matter can only be visited secretly, not overtly.

Since it was an unannounced visit, it was naturally necessary to send the most loyal and reliable people. Out of this consideration, and coinciding with Jiang Zhixuan's triumphant return, Li Shimin handed over this important task to Jiang Zhixuan. In terms of loyalty, with Li Shimin's vision of looking at people, Jiang Zhixuan has absolutely no problem. On reliability, this expedition against the rebellion of the mountain bureaucrats. Jiang Zhixuan is sharp, although he is a supervising army, but he is admired by the leading generals, if he has no skills, how can he do it? Therefore, Li Shimin was very relieved to hand over this matter to Jiang Zhixuan.

In order to facilitate Jiang Zhixuan's actions, Li Shimin added Jiang Zhixuan to the rank of knight and named him the assassin of Hangzhou, just to reward him for his contributions to the suppression of the rebellion by the mountain officials.

And the reason why he was allowed to bring his family to his post was, on the one hand, out of human considerations. On the other hand, Li Shimin also knows very well that although Jiang Zhixuan's ability to do things is very strong, sometimes it is inevitable that there will be inconsiderate places, after all, he is still very young. And as far as he knows, his wife "> Xiao Xiaoxiao, but she is a person who does everything well and is extremely meticulous. There was such a person by his side who constantly reminded him that the errand would be done more perfectly......

……

When I returned to the river, it was already the beginning of the hour.

The carriage stopped at the gate of the house. Xiaoxiao can barely even take a step. Jiang Zhixuan looked at the two guards and a doorman at the gate of the mansion, and wanted to beckon them to come over and help Xiaoxiao enter. But I thought that my wife ">, and I still don't want to bother other men to support him, so I opened my mouth and said to the extremely energetic tiger head:

"Tiger head, my mother can't walk, and my father has to carry my mother on my back, so my father wants you to walk back to the room by yourself and let Cui Qiao wash and change your clothes, okay?"

The tiger head tilted his head and thought about it, and then nodded heavily: "The tiger head listens to his father, go ...... by himself" and then really jumped out of the carriage by himself, held his head high, and ran towards the backyard like a little adult. Yao Shan smiled when he saw this, worried that he would fall into the pond by playing greedily on the edge of the corridor, so he arched his hand towards Jiang Zhixuan, and quietly followed and watched.

Jiang Zhixuan saw that Hutou and Yao Shan had gone away, so he reached out and hugged his beloved wife into his arms, and said with distress and reproach:

"How, you're tired, aren't you? Few words tell you to be able to ...... Come, my husband will rub your legs and feet for you first......"

Xiaoxiao leaned back in her husband's arms, leaned back vigorously, and exhaled a long breath: "I'm really tired, husband, the concubine promises never to run the hall again......"

Jiang Zhixuan smiled and pinched the little nose of his beloved wife in his arms, and smiled at her dotingly: "This is almost ......" Then he pulled one of his beloved wife's calves, kneaded it gently, and said while rubbing:

"But it won't be long. Even if your husband asks you to run the hall, you won't have a chance......"

While enjoying it comfortably, Xiaoxiao casually asked, "Why?" ”

"Because it will only be two months at the latest, the husband will go to Hangzhou to take up his post. My husband begged Your Majesty today to allow you to take the tiger head, Yaya, and Dandan, and your Majesty agreed...... Hehe! ”

"Really?" Xiaoxiao sat up suddenly: "Is what the husband said true?" ”

"Naturally, when did the husband deceive his wife">...... Eh, what are you doing sitting up? Lie down, relax, for the husband this is giving you a good sense of rejuvenation......"

Xiao Hehehe chuckled non-stop, and then lay down again and leaned on her husband's arms: "Great, I can finally travel with my husband at public expense, haha......"

Jiang Zhixuan pinched hard when he heard this: "Mrs. Feelings" > have always thought about such a beautiful thing? The voice fell, but he couldn't hear his beloved wife's reaction for a long time, Jiang Zhixuan felt that something was wrong, so he called out twice: "Madam" >? Little? ”

As a result, there was still no reaction, Jiang Zhixuan was anxious, and he didn't care about massaging anymore, so he came to Xiaoxiao to take a look, but found that his beloved wife's face was already full of tears, this time, Jiang Zhixuan was in a hurry, and hurriedly asked eagerly:

"Madame", >, why are you doing this? But did the husband say the wrong thing? As he spoke, he slapped himself again and again: "Madam" >. Don't cry, don't cry, did you say something wrong for your husband............"

Xiaoxiao sighed in her heart, for so many years, the husband and wife have gathered less and left more. Every time we get together, I think that time passes too fast, she thought that this time her husband went to Hangzhou to take up his post, and she had to keep the empty boudoir alone, but she didn't expect her husband to think so thoughtfully, ask for His Majesty's grace, and take herself with her children. So. The family can stay with Meimei for a long time......

Seeing that her husband slapped herself with self-reproach, Xiaoxiao hurriedly took his hand, snuggled deeply into his arms, and said emotionally:

"Don't blame yourself, the concubine is happy......"

Through the faint light of the lantern at the entrance of the mansion, Jiang Zhixuan saw the sincere happiness and smile on his beloved wife's face, and then his heart was a little calm: "Madam" > don't say it earlier, you are scared of your husband......"

"Husband, the concubine can't walk, can the husband ...... Carrying the concubine back to the room...... "Xiaoxiao was lying in her husband's arms, so comfortable that she didn't want to move anymore." When he heard his husband's words, he talked about him left and right, and lazily sprinkled his coquettishness......

"This ......" Jiang Zhixuan looked at the two guards and the doorman who were standing like javelins at the door, and he was a little hesitant in his heart. But after thinking about it, what are you afraid of, the black light is blind, and there are no outsiders, not to mention carrying your own wife> it is not a shameful thing, so she nodded righteously: "It's all up to Mrs. >." Commanded......" He got out of the carriage and posed with his back against the curtain of the carriage.

Xiaoxiao was so casual about being coquettish, but I didn't expect her husband to really do it. A burst of sweetness suddenly surged in his heart, and he was no longer hypocritical, and moved to the door of the carriage with difficulty, gently lying on his husband's back, and clasped his hands around his husband's neck into a ring...... She was really too tired to walk, and after running upstairs and downstairs all day, the iron man should be tired and lie down......

From the entrance of the house to the small attic bedroom in the backyard and back garden, there are six or seven hundred meters, that is, nearly a mile or more, when Jiang Zhixuan gritted his teeth and put Xiaoxiao gently on the bed with a flushed face, he himself sat on the ground panting and couldn't get up......

insisted on finishing washing, and the couple lay on the bed and fell asleep, not even having the heart of love. Of course, it was just that there was no thought that night. Early the next morning, the maid who came downstairs to call the morning had not yet stepped out of the backyard. I heard the infinite moaning sound from the small attic in the back garden......

The following days were very leisurely, and Li Shimin gave Jiang Zhixuan a 20-day vacation to let him recuperate at home for a period of time. Jiang Zhixuan had nothing to do, so he went to Zuiyue Building every day to help his beloved wife take care of business.

As Li Rusong said that night, after the reopening of Zuiyue Lou, it was an instant hit, and business was even more than in the past, starting from the tea market in the morning and ending at night, Zuiyue Lou maintained an attendance rate of more than 70% almost every moment. After a small preliminary statistics, from the opening of June 18 to June 28, in just ten days, the profit generated by Zuiyue Building reached an astonishing 5,000 yuan. This is the data obtained after deducting the cost of more than 3,000 guan including the first batch of goods from the royal farm, if this is not included in the cost, ten days of hard work, Zuiyue Lou will bring a profit of 8,000 guan to the Jiang family......

In addition, at the reward dinner that day, in addition to receiving the reward of the official decree, Li Shimin also gave 5,000 taels of gold and 5,000 pieces of palace silk. In addition to the two thousand horses left by his mother-in-law, aunt, aunt, and family, the other three thousand horses were sold by Xiaoxiao and turned into cash, and he got 6,000 yuan. The gold does not need to be exchanged, it is directly deposited in the firm, plus the remaining more than 10,000 guan to decorate the Zuiyue Building, and now the financial resources of the Jiang Mansion have nearly 80,000 guan. Xiaoxiao calculated that two months later, when the couple went to Hangzhou to take up their posts together, they could achieve a veritable "100,000 yuan in their waists"......

On the fifth day of the seventh month, after nearly 20 days of combing, the work of Zuiyue Building was slowly on the right track. Xiaoxiao began to hand over the business to a trustworthy person, and she herself discussed with her husband to go back to Huayin's hometown. After all, two months later, the couple will go to Hangzhou with Tiger Head and Yaya Dandan, and even if this trip is calculated in the shortest time, they will have to stay there for more than two years. If you don't go home and say goodbye to your family, you won't be able to say goodbye anyway!

The day of returning home is set for the sixth day of the seventh month, counting the four days of delay on the road, the couple can also stay in their hometown for four or five days to spend time with their relatives at home. By July 15, Jiang Zhixuan had to rush back to Beijing to participate in the Shuowang Dynasty.

Early in the morning of the sixth day of the seventh month, two carriages stopped at the gate of Jiangfu. The one in front is naturally the car of Xiaoxiao and Jiang Zhixuan's family. In the back, there were some rare items specially purchased from Jingshi, as well as hundreds of palace silks, which were gifts she prepared for everyone in the Jiang family.

Yao Shan was escorted on horseback with ten guards, in addition to these ten Jiang Mansion's own guards. There were also nearly twenty honor guards assigned by the imperial court to accompany them. These honor guards were allocated by the imperial court, and they were special honor guards for distinguished people with titles, and Jiang Zhixuan also used them for the first time.

At the front of the guard of honor are two gong and drum bearers, one carrying a large gong in his hand and one carrying two cowhide drums around his waist; Behind the gong and drum bearer, there are six flag bearers, the two in front of them hold a plaque, which reads the word avoidance, solemnity, and four people behind them, holding a red, black, yellow and white four-color pennant, each flag is embroidered with the words "Founding Bojiang". After that, there were twelve capable and strong guards. Such a guard of honor opened the way along the way, attracting many people to watch. When they saw the words on the banner clearly, the people applauded one after another, and while the founding uncle talked and laughed, tens of thousands of barbarian soldiers were wiped out. Jiang Zhixuan's story has been spread among the people, and he has chased Zhuge Kongming of the Three Kingdoms......

Because there is a lot of time, Jiang Zhixuan and Xiaoxiao are not in a hurry at all when they return to their hometowns, and they stop to rest from time to time along the way to see the scenery and customs along the way, which is very leisurely......

On the evening of the eighth day of the seventh month, the group finally stepped into the territory of Zhenlong Town. Xiaoxiao and her husband both wanted to surprise their relatives at home, so they did not notify them in advance. It wasn't until the guard of honor stopped in front of Jiang Mansion that Jiang Mansion began to stir.

The two uncles and aunts of the Jiang family, as well as Qing'er and Jiang Yun, as well as all the servants up and down the Jiang Mansion, all of them had a shocked and disbelieving expression on their faces, and hurriedly ran out of the Jiang Mansion. How much time has this been? Jiang Zhixuan went from an ordinary scholar to an important minister in the court, a state assassin, and a founding uncle......

After the shock, his face was full of pride, Uncle Jiang and Uncle Jiang Erbo, one of them stepped forward to take Jiang Zhixuan's hand, and went straight to the ancestral hall of Jiang Mansion. They want to worship the ancestors of the Jiang family and tell them that the Jiang family has finally truly prospered......

Xiaoxiao hugged Yaya, Qing'er helped her pick up the balls, and slowly got off the carriage. For the first time, she wore the phoenix crown and xia cloak of the "Five-Rank Lady of Destiny> with a warm smile on her face, and greeted all the servants of the Jiang Mansion with a little nod. The subordinates straightened their chests and saluted one by one, today, they were very happy about their choice to enter the Jiang Mansion in the first place......

"Miss" >...... "There was a quick and excited call behind him. Xiaoxiao didn't have to look back to know that it was the voice of the mustache. Hurriedly looked back, sure enough, it was this girl, only to see that there were still fine beads of sweat oozing on her forehead, and there were some sawn wood ashes on her body, it seemed that she had just run back from the construction site......

"Beard, just came from the villa?" Xiao Xiao asked with a smile.

The maid nodded heavily: "The slave maid heard that there was a founding uncle's honor guard into the town, and I guessed in my heart that it must be my uncle and young lady" > came back, hehe, sure enough...... Wow, the tiger head is so big, come on, let Aunt Mulberry hug ......" Beard while talking, a pair of beautiful eyes while looking around, when he saw the tiger head with a tiger head, wearing a green silk short back, staring at himself next to the carriage, he spoke, and at the same time squatted down and opened his arms to the tiger head. When Tiger Head was a child, she held it most of the time......

Hutou still has some impression of this beautiful aunt, seeing that she squatted down and smiled very brightly at herself, and her little face also showed some smiles, and then she squirmed and walked two steps to the front of the man, and looked at Xiaoxiao hesitantly: "Mother, the child can't walk......"

Dozens of ladies in the audience laughed non-stop: Little young master, little young master, you just got off the carriage, and you haven't walked three or five steps, so you can't walk. Make up some reasons, it's even worse than the old man......

Xiao Xiao couldn't cry or laugh, she knew that Tiger Head was asking for her consent. If she didn't nod, her baby son would never give her a hug. This is also the most gratifying place for Xiaoxiao, the son is naughty, but he listens to his own words very much, which is enough......

The beard finally picked up the tiger's head, and Xiaoxiao only remembered at this time: "Beard, how did you guess that the honor guard of the founding uncle was my uncle and me?" ”

Before she could speak, Qing'er behind her said, "Ouch Miss" >, how did you forget that there is also a tower-like general who was sealed with your uncle......"

Xiaoxiao suddenly realized: "Li Siye? As he spoke, he looked at Qing'er and Yan'er, Qing'er nodded her head, and her face was flushed. Xiaoxiao only then remembered that the things he planned had not been done yet. It just so happened that Li Siye's Zuo Xiaowei is still resting near Jingshi. Can we take this opportunity to get this done?

Beckoning the people to move the things on the carriage down and send them into the house, Qing'er ordered to go down again, tonight Jiangfu will hold a feast, and everyone will be rewarded. It attracted bursts of cheers from the people below, and they all got busy. Xiaoxiaoqi and Qing'er and Wei'er together, each holding a little guy in their hands, went to the main hall of Jiangfu with graceful and graceful. Along the way, Qing'er and Wei'er chattered about some important things in Jiangfu for more than half a year, and Xiaoxiao listened while thinking in his heart, this time when he returned to Beijing, he should also bring Yan'er back......

That night, the Jiang Mansion held a hundred banquets, feasting all the fathers and villagers in the town and the servants of the Jiang family. Jiang Feng also took his wife and children back from the Jiang family's ancestral house in Huayin County, and everyone in Jiang Mansion had a happy and happy night. It's just that a piece of news that Jiang Feng brought back made Xiaoxiao a little distracted:

Wu Siyuan was beheaded the day before yesterday for the crime of fornicating with the enemy, and his body had just been transported back to Huayin County......
