After Jiang Yan arrived in this era, although she spent most of her time in Jiafu and did not have much contact with the outside, she still knew some basic situations. Yunzhou is located in the northwest of the Dayu Dynasty, bordering Beidi, and has never been a peaceful place. Although there is no big war, there are constant skirmishes, and every year I can hear that there is news that the Di people have invaded the border and how many people have died. Normal people don't want to send their children to that place as long as they can get by, the world is so big, where can't they be promoted and make a fortune? What's more, the Qing'an Hou Mansion is already prominent enough, Xie Jingxing is in the border pass, and the promotion ratio with him in the capital is not much higher, so why suffer that.

And looking at Qing'anhou's arrangement for him, he was in the camp on the outskirts of Beijing from the beginning, and he was obviously not promoted by military merit, and a few years have passed, so why did he suddenly change his development path. Moreover, Xie Jingxing's grandmother has always loved him, and if she wants to arrange him to Yunzhou, she must also consider the opinion of Mrs. Hou. There's no perfect reason, but it doesn't make sense.

The most important reason is that the court in the Dream of Red Mansions during this period of time is not calm, and there are frequent personnel transfers, and Jia Yucun is also seen by the prince Teng Teng to protect the capital and enter Beijing to see His Majesty, these are all developed characters after the new emperor ascended the throne, and the team of the emperor like Qing'an Hou is two people. Jiang Yan inevitably wondered if something had happened to Qing'anhou, and she was busy arranging for her son to go outside, and there was also a way out.

Xie Jingxing asked her inexplicably, "Why did you think of this?" ”

Jiang Yan looked at his expression as if there was nothing wrong, and smiled awkwardly, "I'm guessing randomly, it's not the best." Then why were you suddenly transferred to Yunzhou? ”

Xie Jingxing sighed and said: "This is a long story, and there is some truth in your guess." Our Xie family's ancestral home is Yunzhou, and most of the clansmen have moved to Beijing, but there are still a few people in Yunzhou. In the early part of this month, there was an excerpt from the imperial history to refer to the Xie family's forcible occupation of the people's land in Yunzhou, and the Hou Ye, as the head of the Xie family, was also included in a book because of his self-control. Although the excerpt was left by the emperor and not issued, the Hou Ye also knew. He was about to send someone back to control him, but I angered him a while ago and transferred me back by the way. ”

Jiang Yan knew that their father and son were not quite right, but, "Don't you often provoke him, why are you so strict this time?" ”

Xie Jingxing was still angry when he thought about it, "Who knows him!" I just received your letter and sent someone to buy bricks and stones, and when he found out, he said that I was competing with the people for business and personnel, and scolded me on the pretext of playing a role, and the next day the order came down. ”

Jiang Yan didn't expect that there was anything about her here, and said in surprise: "Aren't there many shops in your Hou Mansion?" Could it be that they are all rented to others? I did bad things with good intentions, and I wouldn't have told you if I had known. ”

Xie Jingxing belched, "What does this matter matter to you, you just said a message, and it's not up to me to decide whether to buy it or not." Besides, this time it's all him looking for fault, although our government doesn't do business, but how can there be more than a dozen shops under the banner of Qing'an Houfu, and getting dividends every year is not called competing with the people? It's just a lie. ”

He said, "In addition to bidding farewell to you, I have come this time to say goodbye to you, and there is also the matter of masonry and wood. ”

Jiang Yan said strangely: "Didn't Qing'an Hou not let you do it?" You let the steward of your house deal with it, what else is going on? ”

Xie Jingxing smiled, and there was a hint of smugness on his handsome face, "If he doesn't allow me to stop doing it?" Now I've almost collected it, and it's all piled up outside the city. Now the matter of saving relatives has not been heard at all, and when Beijing begins to take care of the garden, maybe I have already left Beijing to take up my post, and I want to entrust this to you. ”

Jiang Yan hurriedly shook her head, "Don't don't, what are you going to do for me?" Are you someone you don't trust? ”

"It's just not," Xie Jingxing spread his hands, "My people naturally want to go with me to the post." Which of the remaining people in the Manchu Mansion dares to do things for me behind the back of the Hou Ye. The front foot commanded the back foot Hou Ye to know, in fact, the silver doesn't matter, but I can't bear this breath. I don't want you to do anything, I have arranged everything outside, that is, I am responsible for checking and collecting accounts, and we will divide the silver in half. ”

Jiang Yan didn't expect to give her money, and she couldn't agree to this, she didn't do anything, Xie Jingxing was sending money to her. She refused, Xie Jingxing didn't agree, without Jiang Yan's reminder, he couldn't think of making this money, he couldn't take advantage of his friends. The two were at a stalemate.

Jiang Yan thought about it, he didn't leave until the end of the year, and at that time, the provincial relatives began to build, so he said: "Why don't we make a bet, it's not clear when the news from the court will come down now, if those relatives start to build gardens before you leave, then the income will be yours, and if it drags on until I need help, I will take half of it as wages." ”

Xie Jingxing pondered for a moment and agreed, it was not up to him to decide whether the things were sold in his hands or not.

This matter was decided, Jiang Yan asked him about the situation in Yunzhou again, she only read some books and poems, and she was not interested in geography at all, she only knew that it was in the northwest, and she didn't know anything about other customs and customs, and she didn't know that it was different from the northwest of her time.

"Although Yunzhou is my Xie family's hometown, to be honest, it is really not a good place. Not to mention the Dinu who harasses from time to time, the land there is barren, the people are poor, the literary style is not prosperous, and there have never been any famous people and Confucians. The imperial court has always been inferior in the annual evaluation. ”

Xie Jingxing has been in Beijing since he was born, and he has never been back to his hometown, and he can't talk about it. After this order, I began to look through the information of Yunzhou, and the more I looked at it, the more desperate I became, I really admired the ancestor of his family, who was able to fight from such a dilapidated place to become the Qing'an Hou who everyone in the capital was in awe of.

Jiang Yan knew that things could not be changed, so she could only persuade him to think about the benefits, "Didn't you want to take a walk around the north and south of the world for a long time, this time is also an opportunity, Yunzhou is close to the territory of the Hu people, maybe you still have time to see the desert scenery." ”

Xie Jingxing said: "If I wasn't thinking about this, I would have resigned a long time ago!" It just so happens that I'm tired of this capital. I only went to Jinling a few years ago, and I haven't been there for two years. I also had plenty of time to go to Yunzhou this time, and I was able to take the opportunity to visit all the towns and cities along the way. Moreover, the people in Yunzhou are fierce, and everyone practices martial arts, so I can practice well with people when I go there. ”

Jiang Yan saw that he said the benefits of being transferred, and it is estimated that he knew that he had done a lot of psychological construction after the transfer, and who was a normal person who was willing to leave the prosperous Son of Heaven to go to the poor countryside to endure hardships, fortunately, he wanted to open it himself.
