Chapter 128: The Promise Wins Souls

Dongcheng South Juxian Fang Gatehouse Hutong.

Due to the livability of Shichahai and the tax customs of Chongwenmen, the capital has always had the pattern of being rich in the west and rich in the east, however, for more than 100 years, the land in the west is limited, even if it is a high-ranking official, some have to live in the east city, so the number of eunuchs living in the north of the east city is naturally increasing. Most of the people living in Nanju Xianfang were military attachΓ©s, and when Yang Jin Zhou was transferred back to Beijing, he also took his mother, who originally lived in Xuanfu, back.

Although Yang Jin Zhou is not rich, but Yang's mother Jiang is good at embroidery, after his father's old injury recurrence and death, together with several military robes and daughters in the army opened an embroidery workshop in Xuanfu, because there are many old colleagues to help, over the years have also accumulated some money. Before returning to Beijing with Yang Jinzhou, she gave the embroidery workshop to a few old sisters who supported the embroidery workshop, plus the emperor gave a three-entry mansion a year ago, the mother and son bought new furniture, added a few servants, and Qin Hu, who lived at home, was also lively and harmonious.

Because he is the newly appointed commander of the Tiance Guard, Yang Jinzhou's duty is naturally inseparable day and night, and it all depends on the will of the Son of Heaven. When he came back in the middle of the night last night, it was dawn early in the morning, and he took Qin Hu out on horseback. After walking a few steps along the alley, he heard Qin Hu behind him muttering in a low voice: "My lord, why didn't you say about that Zhao Baihu earlier, you must know that he is such a person, I would have chopped him with a knife!" ”

"You think he's a Tartar who can be chopped with a knife casually?" Yang Jinzhou was angry and funny, turned around and slapped Qin Hu on the head, then turned around and said without looking back, "This is not a battlefield, Jingli is a cat and a dog, and you can't kill it casually...... Gonggong Qu came to greet him in person, if I hadn't asked you to report the news, maybe the person would still be by his side, and he couldn't move, it would be like a thorn in his back......"

Before he finished speaking, he suddenly stopped talking, and pressed one hand on the hilt of the knife, and Qin Hu behind him reacted only a beat slower than him, and immediately dodged in front of him. The next moment, at the mouth of the alley not far away, a figure probed the probe and turned in. It was a middle-aged woman, looking in her forties, dressed in a long blue cloth gown that had been cleanly washed, with neat sideburns, and only a somewhat tired expression on her face. When she got closer, she didn't seem to expect that there were two people with knives standing in the alley early in the morning, and she was stunned for a moment before she stepped forward and bent her knees to say a blessing, but asked: "Dare to ask the two masters, I don't know if Lord Tiance Wei Yang can live here?" ”

Yang Jin waved his hand on Monday to stop Qin Hu, who was about to ask, and said lightly: "I am." ”

Tian looked cautiously for a moment, secretly compared the description of the third lady, coupled with the tower-like Qin Hu next to him, believed eighty percent, and a stone fell to the ground in his heart, and hurriedly bowed again, and then took out the two things that Chen Lan handed over to him and held them in his hands.

"Lord Yang, the little woman is a servant of the Marquis of Yangning, and she came to see her on the order of the third lady in the family. Yesterday afternoon, my old lady because of the days of shock, so suddenly ill and unable to speak, only drafted a question book, and by the third lady to copy it, this is to be sent to the general secretary, but I thought that the political envoy just changed people, although it was sent in, but I don't know when to get the imperial view. So the third lady was in a hurry, so she had to write another one on behalf of the old lady. Inside this envelope is the inscription of the old lady of my family, and in this bag is the things that the queen gave before, and I hope that Lord Yang can also pass it on to the county lord of Yixing. ”

Tian originally said these words according to Chen Lan's instructions, and it was easy to finish saying it word for word, and seeing that Yang Jinzhou and the black tower-like entourage behind him did not move at all, he was suddenly secretly anxious. After waiting for a while, just when she was most nervous in her heart, she saw the cold young man in front of her immediately take a step forward, bent down and took the things in her hand, and then nodded.

"Please reply to the third lady of your house, I will definitely send this question book for her."

Although Tian is a servant of the Hou Mansion, he also went out with his husband who was a housekeeper in his early years, so when he came over yesterday, he first looked at the alley in front of Yang's house, and then turned to the back street, and asked the playing children with a few pieces of candy that Yang Jinzhou had not come back, so he waited hard until the night curfew, and then found a clean and safe inn nearby to live for a night, but he didn't close his eyes all night, five watches... When the night ban was lifted, they hurried over. Seeing that Yang Jinzhou didn't speak just now, she thought that the matter entrusted by the third lady was messed up, but she didn't expect to get such a promise in the end.

"Thank you, Lord Yang, thank you, Lord Yang!"

Seeing that Tian Shi gave a gift and thanked him repeatedly, he hurriedly turned around and walked towards the exit of the alley, Yang Jin thought about it for a while, and put the two things solemnly into his arms one by one, and when he only held the bag, his index finger and thumb vaguely identified that it was a jade pendant and a jade ring, and his movements couldn't help but slow down. Qin Hu on the side was still looking at the Tian clan who was leaving, and suddenly asked in a low voice, "My lord, did you agree too quickly?" In case there's any trouble with this......"

"There's no trouble, before the emperor announced that the county lord of Yixing and Miss Huixin would enter the palace, and they would live in Xiyuan, and today it was decided that His Royal Highness King Zhou would go to Qionghua Island in Xiyuan to play, and His Royal Highness King Zhou was most likely going to see the county lord of Yixing, but it was just a gesture. Besides, if it wasn't for the help of the third lady last time, our task would not have been completed so easily. ”

"It turns out that the adult wants to return the favor...... Also, it is said that in this Jingshi, don't owe anything to people......"

Yang Jinzhou saw that Qin Hu was pretending to be smart there, and suddenly realized, he didn't pay attention to him, and let the horse trot up with a flick of the reins, but he couldn't help but think about it in his heart. Thinking that the sudden assassination on the long street was like a lead to the current series of events, his memory gradually returned to the time when he led the team to the Yangning Marquis Mansion to do business.

Before that trip, Qu Yong explained to him the intricate relationship within the hundred-year-old Hou family, but at that time, he just thought it was a routine matter to carry out the imperial order, but he didn't expect that when he took Xia Zhuang's head later, he had to go to An Yuan for help, and it was Chen Lan who came out. Although she was a woman, she did not hesitate to give up her big profits, so that the tenants who made trouble stopped at once, and the situation was settled in one fell swoop. Therefore, the two young ladies of Dongchanghou Mansion fainted on the long street, and he naturally entrusted her. Now she found him when she had no other way to change in the Hou Mansion, but she didn't ask him to pass it on to the emperor, and this word of proportion is even more ingenious than that of a man.

Qin Hu, who was half a horse behind, saw Yang Jinzhou riding his horse absentmindedly, and his face showed a thoughtful expression from time to time, and he couldn't help but feel strange in his heart, and couldn't help but stare at the side of his face. I don't know how long it took to look at it, but an inexplicable thought suddenly came to him in his heart, and he immediately muttered in his heart, wondering if Mrs. Xunjiang would whisper it after going back.

The West Garden is located in the west of the Imperial City, in addition to many internal official yamen, there are countless pavilions and pavilions, and the Qionghua Island on the Taiye Pond is the most beautiful place in the entire Imperial City. The name of Qionghua Island originated from the Jin Kingdom, and when it came to the Yuan Dynasty, it was renamed Wanshou Mountain, and Chu Taizu disliked the vulgarity of the name of Wanshou, so he still changed it back to Qionghua Island. The palace pavilions on the island are scattered according to the mountain and are hidden among the pines and cypresses, and it is the most summer resort and is often used as a summer palace.

Now in this spring season, the autumn and winter killing atmosphere on Qionghua Island is swept away, green trees and red flowers can be seen everywhere, and wild things such as squirrels and hares can be seen jumping around from time to time. And Zhang Huixin was looking east and west, plus teasing King Zhou from time to time, and gradually opened a large distance from the county lord of Yixing who fell behind.

For Qionghua Island, the county lord of Yixing is naturally too familiar to be familiar with it. Raised in the palace since she was a child, she was very loved by the first emperor, and her favorite thing at that time was to go here in the summer to escape the heat. Since the rest of the princes and princesses were not allowed to accompany her, the entire Qionghua Island was her world at that time, and she didn't know how many times she had drilled through those paths and woods until she could walk with her eyes closed. Because of this, at that time, the first emperor died, and she suggested that the emperor place the empress and Concubine Wuxian, who was pregnant with Liujia, on Qionghua Island, but she didn't expect it......

A crisp bird's cry interrupted her thoughts, seeing that King Zhou and Zhang Huixin had disappeared, and there was only one Mother Zhao left beside her, and those eunuchs were all chasing the two little ancestors, she couldn't help but smile, and simply took Mother Zhao down the mountain from the side path. When she arrived at the foot of the mountain, she saw Yang Jinzhou walking in the distance, so she stood in place.

Before the people approached, she smiled and said, "When I took Huixin to the island before, why didn't I see your figure?" ”

"Back to the county lord, I heard from a few eunuchs that the Yunxiao Tower on Qionghua Island was a little unclean, so I took people up to inspect it, but I didn't find anything, I thought it was a false rumor." Seeing that there was only one Mother Zhao by the side of the county lord of Yixing, Yang Jinzhou knew that this was the best opportunity, so he hurriedly took out the two things that the Tian family had given him before, and explained the reason for the matter concisely, and finally explained, "I think that the third lady is really helpless, so I asked me to transfer it to ......."

"One is that there is no way, and the other is that I can trust you." The county lord of Yixing interrupted Yang Jinzhou's words with a smile, and then said meaningfully, "Besides, she helped you a lot in Tiananzhuang before, this time she only asks for your effort, will you refuse?" Her temper has always been to plan and then move, this time if it weren't for the sudden change at home, she couldn't find me, and she wouldn't have asked you for help, this handle fell into the hands of her third uncle, she couldn't please it. ”

Seeing that Yang Jinzhou frowned, knowing that although he was not in Jinyiwei, he should still know some of the things that happened these days, the county lord of Yixing waved his hand again and said: "Don't worry, her grandmother is the sister of the queen mother after all, and if she doesn't look at the face of the monk and the face of the Buddha, the emperor will not treat her harshly as an old lady, not to mention that Chen Lan's girl is likable, and even the queen praises her for her stability and generosity." I will try to solve this problem, if someone from the Hou Mansion comes to you to inquire about the news...... Ahem, she shouldn't do such superfluous things, so you can rest assured. ”

Yang Jinzhou didn't care that the Yixing County Lord told him not to worry about it, and it reassured him, so he nodded and arched his hand and left. The county lord of Yixing looked at his upright and steady back when he walked, and couldn't help but smile slightly, and his eyes fell on the letter in his hand that read "Yixing county lord personally opened". She stood there and opened the envelope, and saw that there were a few other pieces of letterhead in addition to the inscription, and she had to take a cursory look at them.

After reading it, she couldn't help but groan thoughtfully. Chen Lan knew that Yang Jinzhou owed the boss a favor before, but he was able to hold back his emotions and not ask others to forward the question book to the emperor, but sent things to her, which shows that his heart is unwilling to embarrass others. The inscription in the envelope is Chen Lan's handwriting, which should be slightly copied and polished according to the draft, the words are very straightforward, a stroke is not excellent, but it is also passable, the important thing is that what should be said is clear, the words are sincere, only in the bag is the jade tiger given by the queen......

This girl!
