Chapter 400: Jiao Shujin
It seems that he knows that he has a chance to extinguish himself.
Ling Tianhan bowed his head, and did not agree immediately, but raised his eyebrows and looked at Zheng Xuemin: "How to atone for your sins?" ”
Zheng Xuemin saw that this was giving himself a chance, so he finally raised his head boldly and looked at Ling Tianhan; "I ...... Although there are people I dare not provoke, I think that the prince must not know that now in Qingzhou, there is an important person! ”
Zhu Xinghe's eyes lit up, and he glanced at Ling Tianhan before he asked Zheng Xuemin, "But you sent out hundreds of soldiers, and the one you want to pick up?" ”
Zheng Xuemin raised his eyes and looked at Zhu Xinghe incredulously: "You know?!" ”
Actually, I don't know, but I can't act like I don't know.
Ling Tianhan's eyes were slightly cold: "That's what you said." ”
The implication is to let this Zheng Xuemin not inquire blindly. But it made Zheng Xuemin more and more solemn: "Yes." The first time I saw the prince and the princess, I finally understood the power of the two. I said, I'll say it! In two days...... It's my birthday, and I want to hold a birthday banquet in Cheongju, so I'm inviting people with heads and faces in Cheongju. ”
It's all this time, he is a Qingzhou city guard, what kind of birthday banquet do you want to hold?!
If the court is full of courtiers like him, then the huge Eastern Yuan Dynasty will really be over!
Zhu Xinghe could feel that Ling Tianhan was holding back his anger at the moment, and he still wanted to hear this Zheng Xuemin finish.
And Zheng Xuemin said that the person he sent out 500 people to invite was not ordinary.
The man's name was "Jiaoda", and he was a squire in a small town under the jurisdiction of Cheongju.
But Jiao Da has a little daughter named "Jiao Chunlu", and her identity is not ordinary!
Seeing him selling guanzi like this, even Shuangxi was a little anxious: "What kind of guanzi are you selling?" How is this Jiao family, you just say it! ”
"Yes, I was wrong."
Zheng Xuemin was afraid of them, so he honestly lowered his head again, and only then did he change his eyebrows.
In fact, this Jiao Da has nothing special to point out, his ancestors have been farmers for generations, and he has a little land in the countryside, although he doesn't have to worry about eating and drinking, but before he met Jiao Chunlu's mother, his family was just living an ordinary life.
This Jiao Chunlu's mother is not ordinary.
Others only know that her name is "Tao Niang", and her behavior is everyone's best girl. It was from the nearby state town that he fled, and after being rescued by such a big man as Jiao Da by the river, he promised Jiao Da his body.
But what makes people feel strange is that the two of them can be regarded as something that you and I want, and Jiao Da's family is the eldest son of him, but the Jiao family has not had a big marriage.
Jiao Da's father died at an early age, and Jiao Da's marriage was handled by his mother as the abbot, and the relatives of the family were called, so quietly and hastily.
It's just their own business, and although others are puzzled, they don't say much.
And after the peach girl married into the Jiao family, she could be regarded as abiding by the rules. There are rumors in the village that Tao Niang brought a lot of dowry.
Sure enough, half a year after marrying Tao Niang, the Jiao family began to build a large courtyard, and bought some land from the hands of the same villagers.
Although others are envious, they are only envious of Jiao Da's luck.
In the second year of their marriage, Tao Niang gave birth to Jiao Da's eldest son, Jiao Yongjie.
Speaking of Jiao Yongjie, Zhu Xinghe has heard of it. There is also a man named Jiao Yongjie in Beijing, who is one of the entourage guards of Zhuo Dingsheng, the son of Prince Ping. Sure enough, this Jiao family, can Prince Heping have a relationship? This is something Zhu Xinghe didn't expect, but he didn't think it was unexpected.
When Jiao Da's eldest son Jiao Yongjie was three years old, Tao Niang was pregnant again, but this time, Tao Niang did not have such good luck.
When giving birth to a child, Tao Niang died of dystocia, giving birth to a daughter who was born before term, named "Jiao Shujin". This name made Zhu Xinghe feel very good, and he became more and more convinced that that Tao Niang was not an ordinary person. The word brocade is not a name that Jiao Da can take out.
After Tao Niang died, Jiao Da was heartbroken, and for so many years, he didn't marry another wife, but just pulled the two children with his old mother to grow up.
Originally, relying on the family's land, their family was able to live peacefully and happily. And the turning point of the matter came in the year when Jiaoda's old mother died.
According to Zheng Xuemin, that was about five years ago, when he had just been transferred to Cheongju to serve as a city guard.
The reason why I know about the Jiao family is also because it was Prince Ping's close guard who came to Qingzhou in person.
He wanted to find someone, saying that some time ago, Jiao Shujin, the youngest daughter of the Jiao family, and her brother went to Beijing to play, and they met Prince Ping.
Ping's wife Wang fell in love with this Jiao Shujin at a glance, but fortunately, Ivy had time to pay the ransom, so Jiao Shujin left the capital with his brother.
After Prince Ping was busy with the matter at hand, he was busy calling people to come to Qingzhou, wanting Zheng Xuemin, who was the city guard of Qingzhou at the time, to help find this little girl of the Jiao family, and then take her to Beijing to serve Prince Ping.
When Zheng Xuemin said this, in fact, Zhu Xinghe was shocked!
According to his age, Jiao Shujin five years ago was only fifteen or sixteen years old! It's a little doll that hasn't grown yet, and it was actually taken in by the evil Prince Ping?!
Now in front of Zhu Xinghe and Ling Tianhan, Zheng Xuemin didn't dare to hide anything.
At that time, he took the guard and quickly found the Jiao family.
At first, the Jiao family naturally disagreed. After all, they don't care who the other party is, they don't want to marry their flowery daughter to an old man as that unsightly concubine.
But later, Zheng Xuemin said that the Jiao family was unwilling for another reason: Jiao Shujin's mother, Tao Niang, was not an ordinary person, but a criminal slave who escaped from the border!
You must know that if the slave escapes from all over the place, if he is discovered by others, it will not only be a dead end for himself, but also a burden to his family.
Therefore, the Jiao family wants to keep this secret, and must not let others know, so naturally they don't want Jiao Shujin to go to Beijing to get involved with those dignitaries.
But because of this secret, the Jiao family was finally discovered by Zheng Xuemin and threatened by Zheng Xuemin, so he had to let Jiao Yongjie follow Prince Ping's guards to Beijing to see the situation first.
Jiao Yongjie is young and vigorous, and he has long wanted to leave the lifeless town to find another way out, so he is naturally willing to go to Beijing.
