When Lin Daiyu was busy counting the silver every day, in the courtyard of the Yangzhou prefect, Sun Shaozu sat on a Taishi chair, staring at the paper in his hand with a gloomy face, how could this be? Didn't you say that it was going to be the end of the year? How did that man know that he was not in the capital? Actually sent a document for him to go back? What are the soldiers doing? And Bao Ye? Bao Ye wouldn't know how important he was in Jiangnan, right?

"Your Excellency?" Next to him, a guard whispered, "Master Bao has a letter." ”

"Bring it!" Sun Shaozu was stunned for a moment when he heard this, and then shouted, "Hurry up and give it to me." ”

"Yes!" The guards were busy respectfully delivering a letter sealed with vermilion lacquer to Sun Shaozu's hands. Sun Shaozu took the letter and looked at it, it was indeed Jia Baoyu's handwriting, and even the color of the envelope was the pink he liked. Immediately opened the envelope, opened it, looked at it, looked down and thought about it, and then threw the letterhead with the envelope in the charcoal basin next to it, watching the letterhead burn to ashes, then sighed and ordered: "Prepare the horse, go to Zhenjiang." ”

Yangzhou and Zhenjiang are just separated by a river, but they are also separated by a little road, and the purpose of Sun Shaozu's coming to Jiangnan is naturally not as simple as just sending a letter to that treasure master.

The escort with him agreed, turned around and went down, and there were people coming and going here, and the prefect of Yangzhou asked to see him. Sun Shaozu nodded, and in a moment he saw an official about thirty years old, dressed in official clothes and wearing boots on his feet, walking into the main hall, and saluting when he saw Sun Shaozu.

Sun Shaozu smiled with a smile on his face, held him with both hands, and said with a smile: "Master Fu, don't be polite, you came just in time, I was about to send someone over to invite you over." ”

It is said that the surname of the Yangzhou prefect is Fu, the name is Wandeng, he is only thirty-two years old this year, and his family is also a scholarly family of the past dynasties, and he is handsome and handsome, and he is still married. The ancestors used to worship under the Rongguo Gongmen, but Jiangnan is far away from the capital, and there has been no contact over the years, and they have gradually become estranged.

This time Sun Shaozu came to Jiangnan, naturally it was inevitable to see these people, but when he saw this Fu Wandeng, the two of them fell in love, and immediately lived in Yangzhou.

"My lord is looking for me?" Fu Wandeng hurriedly bowed down and asked, "If there is an order, Wandeng will do his best!" He didn't call him a subordinate official, but he used his own name, which was naturally even closer.

"It's nothing, but Miss Lin is coming to Yangzhou in the near future, and I have to go back to Beijing as soon as possible, but I'm afraid that I won't be able to take care of it, so I want to entrust Brother Wandeng to take care of one or two on my behalf." Sun Shaozu took his hand and said with a smile, he has been in officialdom since he was a child, and there is nothing he doesn't know about these scenes.

"Miss Lin?" Fu Wandeng frowned, and said secretly in her heart, "Could it be Miss Lin, the master of the Lin Company?" ”

"Yes!" Sun Shaozu nodded and said, "Speaking of which, you should also know that his father was the doctor of Lantai Temple back then, and he patrolled the salt imperial history of Yangzhou." ”

"Huh?" Fu Wandeng couldn't help but exclaim, how did he not know that Yangzhou was patrolling the salt and imperial history of Lin Ruhai? During this period, he was also involved in some obscure cases, although it was a few years later, but after he took office, when he looked through the old cases, he still felt very strange.

I really never imagined that the Lin family still has descendants.

"You don't have to be surprised, Miss Lin's parents died early, and she has been at her grandmother Mrs. Jia all these years, and you also know that my inner son is the second lady of Jiafu, so we are considered in-laws, this time she will worship her ancestors in Jiangnan, Bao Ye is very worried, and asked me to take care of it along the way, and now I have received a letter from the Ministry of War, so I have to rush back to the capital immediately, so she came to Yangzhou to ask Brother Wandeng." Sun Shaozu said with a smile.

"It turns out that this Miss Lin is still the granddaughter of Mrs. Jia, if you count it, our house also had a little relationship with the Lin family back then, but they were so prosperous back then, we couldn't afford to move around, and gradually became estranged." Fu Wandeng was busy starting the relationship first, and then said, "My lord, this Lin girl, and the master of Lin's cosmetics company?" ”

"Oh?" Sun Shaozu remembered the three words "old potato" that Lin Daiyu gave him last time, and couldn't help but smile bitterly, and said busily, "It's her, she came to Jiangnan, and she was bored and bored with the things that the lady of Zhenjiang County Order made, and I also added a little stake to it, what's the matter, Brother Wandeng is also interested?" ”

Fu Wandeng couldn't help laughing, who isn't interested in making money?

Sun Shaozu is naturally a smart person, so he couldn't help but smile "haha" and said: "Since this is the case, everything is easy to talk about, I will take the first step and go directly to the capital when I go to Zhenjiang." ”

"Your Excellency won't let you see you off at night?" Fu Wandeng couldn't help but be startled, and hurriedly asked.

"I've been chattering a lot these days, and I'm in a hurry, but I don't dare to delay. The next time I come to Jiangnan, I will inevitably disturb Brother Evening Lamp's leisure again. Sun Shaozu said with a smile, and between speaking, the guards had already come to report, and the salute was properly packed, and the carriages and horses were ready.

Sun Shaozu said hello to Fu Wandeng and left. said that Fu Wandeng stood in place for a while, and Master Zhang walked to him silently: "What is the master thinking?" ”

"I'm thinking about that Miss Lin!" Fu Wandeng said with a smile, this Master Zhang is the old man in his family, he is naturally relieved, and he doesn't hide anything, and says directly.

Master Zhang is already fifty years old, with a three-sheep beard, squinting eyes and rosacea, hearing this, he couldn't help touching his beard, and his small eyes narrowed even more: "Master, I think this is an opportunity for your old age, a big opportunity." ”

"Oh?" Fu Wandeng is naturally not a stupid person, it is not easy for a stupid person to become an official these days, he also knows that this is an opportunity, and he stammered it, saying that if he doesn't mix, it is official luck and money are collected, "What does the master mean by this?" ”

Master Zhang sneered: "Master is a smart person, is he really pretending to be confused?" If the lord wants to enter the core forces around Bao Ye, this Miss Lin is a key person who must not be missed, once the big thing succeeds in the future, the lord will be promoted and make a fortune, and naturally he will no longer talk about it, and even ......"

Later, Master Zhang looked left and right, and saw that there was no one else in the courtyard, so he said: "Even the marquis and the king are not a problem." ”

Fu Wandeng just smiled and still didn't speak, but Master Zhang didn't know what he was thinking in his heart, so he leaned in and said: "Even if you don't think about the future, just talk about the present-then Lin's Cosmetics Company is now making money, doesn't the master want to get a piece of the pie?" ”

Fu Wandeng nodded silently, why do you want to be an official for thousands of miles? Isn't it all about silver? Now that there is such a wonderful thing, is it worth missing?

"You go to the yamen to arrange things, and we will go to Zhenjiang the day after tomorrow to visit this Lin girl." Fu Wandeng smiled and instructed that in two days, Sun Shaozu should have left, and when the time comes, bring that Lin girl to Yangzhou to live for a few days...... Hehe...... Thinking of the smugness, Fu Wandeng couldn't help laughing.
