Chapter 104: Jin Jue Promotion
"Fifth aunt, what are you doing standing here?"
"Huh?"
Dong Yougu looked out of the door suspiciously, she heard that this voice was from her eldest son Zheng Jing, who else could be called the fifth aunt by him, except for the heroine that the two of them are talking about now?
Thinking of this, she raised her voice and said, "Wu Niang, but are you outside? β
Her voice fell, and there was silence outside the door for a moment, and Zheng Chagu's figure in a light-colored long dress appeared in the sight of the two, but it could be seen that her expression was very embarrassed, and after looking at the two of them for a second, she lowered her head in a panic and hid her face at an angle that the two couldn't see.
Seeing her like this, how could Dong Yougu not understand that the wall had ears just now, She glanced at Su Yan with some embarrassment, but saw that the latter was staring at her sister-in-law with interest, and swallowed back the words in her mouth.
"Mother!"
At this time, Zheng Jing also ran in from outside the door, breaking the embarrassing atmosphere, he giggled and threw himself on Dong Yougu's thigh, and the maid who was waiting for him behind him wanted to catch up, but looking at the posture in the hall, he didn't dare to step forward, so he quickly knelt on the ground and said: "Madam, it is not good for the slave to take care of the eldest son, please punish Madame!" β
Dong Yougu was in a good mood today, and she didn't want to be too fierce in front of her prospective aunt-in-law, so she said softly to the servant: "It's okay, you go down first, the eldest son will stay here." β
When the maidservant heard this, as if she had been pardoned, she got up from the ground and departed from the place with thanksgiving.
After the maidservant left, Dong Yougu looked at Su Yan apologetically and said, "An Guo, it really makes you laugh." β
Su Yan shook his head with a smile and said no.
At this time, Dong Yougu remembered that Aunt Zheng Cha was eavesdropping in the corner of the wall, she looked at the little sister-in-law who kept grabbing the corner of her blouse with her head down, her face was pale, and she said, "Wu Niang, what were you doing outside just now?" β
"No, nothing." Zheng Chagu was so angry in her heart, but she still held back her emotions and replied in a low voice, and at the same time glared viciously at Zheng Jing who was lying next to her mother and grimacing at herself, if it wasn't for this Zheng Jing suddenly rushing out from behind, how could she be discovered?
From Su Yan's point of view, he could see a hint of clues, his eyes kept switching back and forth between Zheng Chagu and Zheng Jing, and he couldn't help but smile, and his light smile was also heard by Dong Yougu next to him, The latter retracted his expression, looked at Su Yan, and asked, "An Guo, why are you laughing?" β
Suddenly asked, Su Yan was stunned for a moment, but he reacted quickly and replied, "Ah, I remembered something happy." β
"What?"
"Well......" Su Yan didn't expect her to ask further, thought about it, and said seriously: "I met my sweetheart." β
When his voice fell, not only Dong Yougu was stunned, but Zheng Chagu's face turned red all of a sudden, sweetheart, who else in this front hall was the sweetheart in his mouth?
Zheng Chagu was ashamed and annoyed, and couldn't help but scold in her heart: "Dengzi, how can you be so frivolous." β
After a while, Dong Yougu also came back to her senses, she covered her mouth and laughed, and said, "An Guo...... He is really open-minded and eclectic. β
She can only say this, otherwise what should she say, is it possible to directly say that the other party is too direct and too bold?
However, after being interrupted by Su Yan like this, Dong Yougu no longer pursued what Zheng Chagu had just overheard outside the door, and after getting the consent, Zheng Chagu left the front hall as if she was leaving, Su Yan looked at her departing back, and couldn't help but feel a little regretful, he still wanted to have more contact with his fiancΓ©e.
But in this era, what kind of men and women are still guarded, Rao is family style is more open than those official eunuchs, and the Zheng family is not exempt from vulgarity, Su Yan can only regretfully withdraw his gaze, and then fall in love after marriage.
However, from Dong Yougu's point of view, it was Su Yan who was reluctant to stare at Zheng Chagu's back, combined with Su Yan's "confession" words just now, she directly preconceived that Su Yan was likely to really like her sister-in-law.
can be liked by such a heroic man who laid a foundation at such a young age, she is a little envious of Zheng Chagu.
β¦β¦
In the next two days, Su Yan lived in the Zhangguo Mansion, and two days later, on the seventeenth day of the first lunar month, Zhu Chenggong finally finished handling the government affairs at hand and returned to Xiamen Island by boat.
As a result, what do you say, this is unfortunate, the eunuch from the Southern Ming Dynasty also landed on the island with Zhu Chenggong, and this eunuch brought two holy decrees, in addition to bringing Su Yan's canonization decree, there is also a decree to enshrine Zhu Chenggong as the king of Yanping County, but Zhu Chenggong is still in accordance with the trajectory of history, humble resignation, and then two dictations requiring Su Yan and Zhu Chenggong to lead the army south to King Qin of Guangdong.
This eunuch originally wanted to go to Zhu Chenggong to give the message first, and then go north to Fuzhou to meet Su Yan, but when he met Zhu Chenggong, he happened to meet Dong Yougu who sent someone to invite the former to the island, and after learning that Su Yan was actually on Xiamen Island, he directly followed Zhu Chenggong to Xiamen.
After bathing, changing clothes, burning incense and kneeling in the Zhangguo Mansion, Su Yan, including Zhu Chenggong's family, knelt down in front of the eunuch and listened to the latter's ugly duck voice reciting the holy decree:
"Bong
Day carrier
The emperor said: Since ancient times, the emperor has stabilized the world, relied on the strength of the military ministers, and rewarded the extension of the world, favored the rivers and mountains, and even the grand ceremony. With An Bo Su Yan, he was loyal and loyal, restrained and strategic, relieved the worries of Anguo, and made great contributions. He was relieved of his post as the Governor of Fujian and Zhejiang, and was awarded the title of Governor of Fujian and Zhejiang, Prime Minister of Fujian and Zhejiang, and the title of Secretary of the Ministry of War. However, there are still signs of danger in the world, and the people are still uneasy, and Hu Lu has violated my destiny, and I sincerely hope that I can reorganize the mountains and rivers, save the people from fire and water, and help the general of the building to fall to comfort the request entrusted by me. Chin this.
Edict.
The second day of the first month of the fifth year of Yongli. β
"Minister, Su Yan, the governor of Fujian and Zhejiang, thank God!"
With the experience of receiving the decree for the first time, Su Yan was much more familiar with it for the second time, he naturally knelt down, kowtowed and thanked him, and then got up to take the decree, and on the way he stuffed a gold ingot into the hand of the greedy dead eunuch, and everyone was happy, and everyone had a happy smile on their faces.
But Su Yan was not as happy as he seemed to be, just give out a piece of gold, he recovered Fujian, captured the governor of Fujian Tong Guoqi, and dedicated the head of Chen Jin, the governor of Fujian and Zhejiang, to the imperial court.
was only promoted to Hou, which was a bit of a big loss for Su Yan.
According to this promotion speed, I am afraid that it will not be until he recovers Nanjing before he is crowned a prince, and when he thinks that Nanming's defeated and defeated goods can be higher than himself, Su Yan's heart is difficult to calm down.
However, seeing that Zhu Chenggong congratulated him all of them, Su Yan couldn't show his true emotions in his heart, so he could only deal with it with a smile.
