The wind became colder, and only a few dead leaves were left on the branches. In Xiaoyue, Chen Yan was no longer hindered to move around, so he took Qi Su Niang back to the official office of Zhili River.

Zhi'er and Qixi are engaged, although it is more difficult to meet and talk than before because of the rules, but she and Li'er and Changsheng have become more and more intimate, and they always find time to talk to Li'er in the kitchen.

"Last night, I went to Mr. Zhou's room to see my brother and Changsheng, but I didn't expect that Mr. Zhou was still in the former yali council, and he didn't come back on Qixi Festival." The fire in the stove was blazing, and the kitchen was hot, Li'er rolled up her sleeves and said in confusion while doughing: "I thought that my master would come back to eat, and Mr. Zhou must have returned." ”

The tin kettle on the stove was bubbling with blisters, and Zhi'er was holding the pot for a while, and thought for a while, "Master accompanies grandma more these days, except for urgent business, he doesn't work after holding the lamp." Perhaps this is the case, and Mr. Zhou is getting busier. ”

Li'er smiled and nodded, Zhi'er filled the celadon kettle with boiling water, and talked with Li'er for a few more words, and was about to leave, Li'er pulled her again and whispered: "Come to my house tonight to eat." ”

Zhi'er naturally responded, and had to wait for Chen Yan and Qi Su Niang at night, but Qi Su Niang would not call her again, so she slipped into Li'er's room.

Li'er and Changsheng were setting up their meals, and the other, Qixi was fidgeting and waiting, and when they saw Zhi'er enter the door, they smiled. Zhi'er was shy and timid, and was pulled by Li'er and Changsheng, and sat down to eat together.

On the second day, after looking at the opening of the office, Chen Yan went to the front and quietly said to Qi Su Niang: "Grandma, the slave maid heard that there are many people in this period, and there are more than 70 people who have been tried in court, and more than 40 people who are in prison for discussion are saying that they are greedy for ink river and tracing sea silver. Most of them are people on the river mark. ”

Qi Su Niang naturally knew that Zhi'er was now married to Qixi Festival, and the news outside was more intelligent than the original Bi'er, she nodded, "Godfather is not as familiar with river affairs as he is, and someone is taking advantage of loopholes when he is not there." Indeed, it should be investigated. ”

The excerpt of Beihehe Zong asked to check the river and sea silver and handed it to the study room of the Qianqing Palace, and after a few days, Chen Yan was summoned to the capital by Kangxi. When Wei Zhu, who delivered the decree, arrived at the Yamen of Weihe Road in Tianjin, it was not yet noon. Chen Yan received the order and ordered Zhou Xiangtian to accompany Wei Zhu to drink tea, and he turned around and went back to the back house.

Qi Su Niang had already heard the news. I wonder how he has time to go back to the back house. Chen Yan stepped forward and held her hand. "I'll go today." I'm afraid I'll have to come back with me at noon the day after tomorrow. You've been talking about fatigue these days. I don't worry about you. ”

Qi Su Niang was stunned. Immediately laughed. "Brother Chen. It's only two days—"

"You don't feel at ease when you're here alone—" Chen Yan slowly hugged Qi Su Niang. "There is chaos in the capital right now."

Qi Su Niang lay in Chen Yan's arms. Listening to his heartbeat, he said, "The capital is far away from Tianjin." Here again, the government office. Go and stop your business. Biting his lip. Looking up at Chen Yan, "Things are going on in the capital." Don't get mixed with it.

”

Chen Yan stared at Qi Su Niang. "Don't worry. I'm not going to do it openly. ”

Qi Su Niang was stunned, as if she understood why Chen Yan was so worried, most of them still did something secretly, she looked at Chen Yan for a while, hesitated and struggled in her heart, thinking about the Qi family's great hatred, and finally sighed, "Don't worry." I'll stay at home, waiting for you to come back. ”

Chen Yan nodded, summoned the girl to let them set the meal, told Zhi'er to wait, and went out of the back house to the front.

Chen Yan walked along the bluestone road, and saw from a distance that in the side hall, Zhou Xiangtian was accompanying Wei Zhu to eat. It was still about ten steps away from the side hall, Chen Yan swept the corner of his eyes, and Xiao Lian quietly walked to his side.

Chen Yan stopped, "What's wrong." ”

Xiao Lian said softly: "Master, the little one inquired and understood, Lord Cui will be in Tianjin on the twentieth day of the middle and second half of the month, and he will go to the capital on the other ten days." He glanced at Chen Yan, pondered and said, "On the second day of October today, I went to the capital again." ”

Chen Yan frowned, only to feel that Cui Hao was too careless now, "Can you bring someone with you?" ”

Xiao Lian shook his head, "I only brought two bosses." ”

Chen Yan pondered for a while, "Okay, you go and keep an eye on it, you don't have to go to the capital with me, you must see when Master Cui is in Tianjin." ”

Chen Yan entered the side hall, accompanied Wei Zhu to laugh and eat, and when it was time to go out and get in the car, Chen Yan took advantage of Wei Zhu's absence and said to Zhou Xiangtian sideways: "Mr. sent someone to inform Mr. Cui Qian, let's go out on weekdays and bring more people." ”

Zhou Xiangtian was slightly surprised, I don't know why Chen Yan is so interested in Cui Hao, although it is because of some friendship with his relatives, they are irrelevant, Cui Hao is a person under the eighth master, recently the Jiangsu Gang has collected the Changzhou Gang, and the two sides are competing, so it is better to avoid it. Even though he thought so, he still responded.

Tianjin Chenghe pacesetter barracks, Cui Hao received the news of the summoning in the capital, rode out of the camp, all the way to the north gate of Tianjin City, heard the sound of the gong, and saw that the honor guard of Beihe River was coming, so he rode his horse and flashed on the side of the road.

Seeing that Beihe was always heading towards the capital, Cui Hao was about to go out of the city with him, and saw Weng Bai coming head-on, followed by more than 30 porters, carrying 30 bride prices, most of which were new goods from Caohe.

When Weng Bai saw Cui Hao, he was also stunned, and hurriedly pulled the reins of the horse and bowed his hand, "Master Cui." ”

Cui Hao smiled and returned the salute: "Gongzi Weng." He glanced at the bride price behind Weng Bai, "When will Gongzi Weng go to Huai'an to be hired?" Is the wedding date booked? ”

Weng Bai's face was happy, he seemed to be teased a lot, and he responded very calmly, "After the fifth day of the first month of next month, when Huai'an Li Er's family returns from Tongzhou, go to Huai'an with him to get hired, and then get engaged." ”

Cui Hao knew that September was the day of the exchange of grain, and Jiangsu helped one

Siqin escorted the boat, and now he was afraid that he had arrived in Tongzhou to pay the grain, and was busy recovering the profits from the sale of the journey, so he also nodded.

The two of them whispered a few more words. Cui Hao was about to leave, Weng Bai swept the two generals behind him, hesitated slightly, and said: "Lord Cui, there is no peace in the capital, and there has been some movement in the Jiangsu Gang in the past few days, Lord Cui better be careful and bring more people on the road." ”

Cui Hao was stunned for a moment, and bowed heavily, "Thank you Gongzi Weng." ”

Outside the north gate of Tianjin, there is a cold wind blowing on the Cao River, and in another month, the river will be frozen.

The carriage that rushed to Beihe Hezong overnight passed through Tongzhou in the early morning and entered Chaoyangmen. Wei Zhu led Chen Yan into the Qianqing Palace, and it was the morning of the second day, and he was summoned into the upper study.

In the afternoon, the eighth elder brother hurriedly walked to the study room of the Qianqing Palace, and saw the third elder brother and the fourth elder brother walking over from the opposite side while talking.

The three of them exchanged glances and came to the door of the study. Wei Zhu came out and said with a smile: "Three masters, the emperor is summoning Lord Chen, the governor of Beihe. ”

The third elder brother said: "Let's wait." ”

In the upper study, the gilded Western table clock was clanging: walking, from one o'clock in the afternoon to four o'clock in the afternoon, the three elder brothers did not have any impatient expressions, and waited quietly outside the door.

"It's called Shi Shilun and Zhang Pengnian." Xi's voice suddenly sounded, and Wei Zhu hurriedly answered and called the little eunuch to urge the emperor's cronies and ministers.

There were more and more people in the upper study, and the three elder brothers waited until the clock pointed to eight o'clock in the evening, and they couldn't go in to see His Majesty.

Seeing that the imperial food began to be passed on, let the governor of the north and several other courtiers accompany the food. The third elder brother smiled slightly, "Chen Bianzhi has gone through life and death this time. ”

The wind in the middle of the night was blowing, and the palace lamps under the eaves of the Qianqing Palace kept shaking, casting the shadows of the trees on the four palace walls.

The voice of Kangxi speaking from the upper study Brother and Eighth Brother did not make a sound, and the third elder brother also stopped talking and listened, "You immediately rush back to the rivers and waterways on all sides of Tianjin Ji tonight, and be attentive." ”

Footsteps sounded, and Chen Yan bowed down and slowly retreated from the upper study. He turned his head and saw the three elder brothers, smiled slightly, and bowed, "Weichen has seen the third master, the fourth master, and the eighth master. ”

The third elder brother hurriedly held on, "Lord Chen is exempt from courtesy, Lord Chen's legs and feet are better." ”

Chen Yan said respectfully, "Thank you for asking, the emperor has sent the imperial doctor to diagnose it, it is already very good, and I will go to the hot springs every year in the future, and I will keep it." ”

"Let them in." Kangxi's voice sounded, and the three elder brothers hurriedly tidied up their clothes and walked into the upper study.

Chen Yan looked at their backs, his face flushed with a faint color, and walked towards the outside of the palace step by step.

The third watch drum sounded, and the fourth elder brother finally returned to the Yongwang Mansion, and the thirteenth elder brother who had been waiting greeted him, "Fourth brother, how is it?" ”

Chen Bianzhi presented the confessions of Tongzhou Hebiao Qianhu and others to the emperor, and they allege that 80,000 taels of Hesu Haiyin were embezzled and presented to Qi Shiwu, the secretary of the military department. The emperor has already ordered Shi Shilun to try the case. ”

The thirteenth elder brother was overjoyed, "In the past year, Qi Shiwu and those people have often drunk together, we all know that there are cats, but in order not to startle the snake, we can't catch real human and physical evidence for a while." Although the emperor was watching, he was also hesitating. Now, with the help of embezzlement of ink and silver, he can justifiably arrest people for criminal trial, and as long as he has a confession, he can immediately turn over a major case of rebellion. ”

The fourth elder brother nodded, "That's right." The prince of Anjun, the eighth man, was already planning to sue Qi Shiwu and others for rebellion. ”

"Where would Chen Changzhi come out to pick these things in the past? This is to vent her anger at his wife. His brother-in-law's family died at the hands of the prince, and his wife was almost touched by the prince. Even a mud bodhisattva will have fire. The thirteenth elder brother smiled with a smile on his face, "I was worried that the emperor would be extremely dissatisfied with him for exploring the source of the Yellow River. Now it seems that if the conspiracy case can be found out this time, the emperor will still use him greatly. ”

The fourth elder brother nodded, and shook his head again, "He Tuhua is seriously ill, and I don't know if I can hold it up." Shi Shilun is probably going to let go of Caotai's foreign errand, Chen Pengnian is too old, the emperor, but he has not yet found someone who can replace him......"

In Niulu's mansion, Chen Yan looked at He Tuhua, who was still sick in bed, thanked him for staying overnight, went out of the house and got into the carriage, "Hurry overnight and go back to the house early." ”

The reason why Lianxiang's death is used as the ending is because the character of Lianxiang was written as another Qi Su Niang from the beginning. If Qi Su Niang was born in the Qing Dynasty, she would have a character like Lianxiang. That's why I named the two little girls on the boat the names Lianxiang and Shuanghong to imply the meaning of this stand-in. There have been quite a few pro-appearances, thank you. Shuanghong also has this meaning, but Shuanghong is in the upper class, and the meaning of the stand-in in this article is not as obvious as Lianxiang.

It is also said that in the initial setting, the ending of the story was that Chen Yan died at the source of the Yellow River, and Qi Suniang was forced to die. However, this is a historical romance, a legend of a little person, YYY, the male and female protagonists can't die, so the two stand-ins of Lianxiang and Shuanghong were designed.

The route of this article is always entertaining.

In addition,The plot of this article around the theme has been written.,Except for the fan I designed.,To write it down is to write for the sake of writing.,Can't focus on the core of the theme.,That kind of plot will be inferior.,So I have to ask for forgiveness.。 There are six more times to make up.,I'll try to write more than six chapters.,Strive to finish this month.,But the time is really not completely guaranteed.。

Finally, thank you again for persevering until now, still subscribing to Qingnan, and supporting Qingnan, thank you for not giving up Qingnan. Qing Nan has many deficiencies, and I will reflect on and improve it in the next article. Take a bow! [There is no charge for the above words]
