Chapter 432: Qiu Fu who stood in front of him
The next day, early in the morning, Zhou Shi came to the door with the list.
Chen Kan saw him in class with two huge black circles under his eyes
"Master Hou, this is the list of people who went to the Naval Academy and the Army Academy for further study this time."
Zhou Shi respectfully handed a list to Chen Kan.
Chen Kan took it, glanced at it casually and threw it on the table, and asked, "Didn't you make any trouble?" ”
Zhou Shi hurriedly shook his head: "No one dares to make a fuss, it's all up to the point." ”
"Okay, now that it's decided, let them not waste time, where should they go."
Chen Kan casually stopped, and Zhou Shi hurriedly got up to receive the order.
"Alright, don't make any more mess for Benhou, get out!"
"Yes, the last general will leave!"
After a few words of scolding, Zhou Shi limped out of the Hou Mansion.
Chen Kan was thinking about going to sleep for a while, and Yun Cheng hurriedly walked into the guest hall.
"Master Hou, Qi Guogong's ship has arrived at Zhuozhou Wharf and is heading to Beijing, do we want to go to meet you?"
"Qiu Fu is here so soon?"
Chen Kan was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said: "The same Jiangmen, you should go to see it, you can prepare, Benhou will go back to the room to change clothes." ”
Seeing that Yun Cheng should get down, Chen Kan turned his head and walked towards the backyard.
Chang Ning was still lazily lying on the bed and refused to get up, and when he saw Chen Kan change into a short shirt, he couldn't help asking, "Husband is going out again?" ”
Chen Kan put on his clothes and replied, "Qiu Fu has arrived in Zhuozhou, go and pick him up for your husband, and you will be back soon." ”
"Oh!"
Chang Ning replied and didn't ask more.
As one of the few princes of the Ming Dynasty, Qiu Fu did not have close contacts with the Hou Mansion.
Apart from business dealings, there was no political exchange between the two families.
Chen Kan went to pick him up, that is, he showed his face, showing that on the territory of Beijing, he, the head of the military generals, supported him.
As for the specific reception matters, it was naturally handled by Zhang Guan, the Shuntianfu Yin, so it didn't take much time.
Chen Kan went out of the mansion, and the messenger sent by the Shuntian Mansion to report the news had already arrived at the Hou Mansion.
The messenger saw that the Hou Mansion had already been prepared, and he didn't say much.
The Hou Mansion has its own news channels, which is normal, but the Shuntian Mansion must also come to report it, this is the sophistication of human feelings.
"Master Hou, since you are ready, the villain will go back to the mansion first."
Chen Kan nodded and replied lightly: "Go ahead, tell Zhang Guan to meet at the Temple of Heaven in the south of the city." ”
The Temple of Heaven is the place where the former Yuan royal family worships the heavens.
Naturally, it was impossible for Chen Kan to go to Beijing City to meet Zhang Guan, so it was a good choice to choose the address of the meeting at the Temple of Heaven.
Chen Kan simply turned over his horse neatly, and galloped down the Jinshui River with a group of guards.
In a short time, the ruined altar of the Temple of Heaven came into view.
"Master Hou, Master Zhang hasn't arrived yet!"
Zhang Dong checked the surrounding environment and made a state of alertness.
"Then just wait!"
Chen Kan gave an order, then turned over and dismounted, and sat down in a pavilion on the edge of the Jinshui River.
Zhang Guan is a civil official, and he can't ride a horse like Chen Kan, so it's understandable that he came slower.
Just waited for nearly a stick of incense, Chen Kan didn't wait for Zhang Dong, but waited for a team of heavily armed servants.
"Hahahaha......"
There was a burst of laughter, and Qiu Fu, who was surrounded by the armor soldiers, jumped off his horse.
"It's an honor for the old man to go out of the city to greet him!"
Chen Kan's eyes widened, shouldn't Qiu Fu be waiting for them to greet them in Zhuozhou at this time?
Why did you come here by yourself?
Unreasonable, simply unreasonable.
Because Qiu Fu's move is undoubtedly surrendering his identity.
However, Chen Kan didn't have time to think about why Qiu Fu would do such a self-deprecating thing.
Because Qiu Fu had already walked quickly onto the dilapidated Temple of Heaven.
Chen Kan hurriedly trotted forward: "I've seen my grandfather!" ”
"No need to be polite, no need to be polite!"
Qiu Fu hurriedly helped Chen Kan up, and then laughed and said: "Hahahaha, the old man misses Beijing very much, and he can't wait to run towards Beijing City when he gets off the boat, just to see what Beijing has become now, but it makes Hou Ye smile, laugh, hehehe!" ”
Qiu Fu's first impression was that he was a rugged man in the army.
The words that came out were also impossible to find fault with at all, which not only explained why he was not waiting for him and Zhang Guan to pick him up in Zhuozhou, but also secretly explained his intention.
Obviously, he was going to deliberately hit Chen Kan and Zhang Guan by surprise.
In other words, Zhang Guan was unexpected.
"Where does the grandfather speak, the grandfather misses his hometown, and the feelings are sincere and moving, but today's Beijing city can be said to be changing with each passing day, but I am afraid that the grandfather will not recognize it when he sees him later."
Anyone would say beautiful things, since Qiu Fu still came with the task of inspecting Beijing, Chen Kan naturally would not deliberately stumble.
It's just that Zhang Guan may have to suffer a little, but that's not what Chen Kan should manage.
The two exchanged a few polite words, and Qiu Fu couldn't help but stretch his neck.
Then he asked seriously, "Lord Zhang hasn't come yet, has he?" ”
Chen Kan nodded: "After all, Lord Zhang is a civil official, and there are so many subordinate officials in the Shuntian Mansion, and not all of them can ride horses, so they came slowly." ”
Chen Kan followed Qiu Fu's words, Qiu Fu wanted to see the most real Beijing City, and he definitely didn't want the officials of Shuntianfu to accompany him.
Otherwise, he could only see the Beijing that Zhang Guan wanted him to see.
Beijing City, as Zhu Di's nest and base camp, its importance is self-evident.
Therefore, Chen Kan guessed that this time Qiu Fu might not only come because of the Army Academy, but also for Zhu Di to stand at the front.
Sure enough, in the next second, Qiu Fu's words confirmed Chen Kan's guess.
Qiu Fu glanced left and right, and then asked with a smile: "I don't know if the Hou Ye is quite familiar with Beijing City, the old man has been away from Beijing for several years, and I am afraid that I will not find the way to go shopping." ”
This is to Chen Kan lead him into the city secretly.
Chen Kan pondered for a moment, and replied lightly: "If Grandpa wants to visit Beijing, Ben Hou should guide Grandpa." ”
"In this way, there will be Master Lao!"
Qiu Fu immediately bowed to Chen Kan again.
"It's a trivial matter, it's not enough to worry about!"
Chen Kan stopped and instructed Zhang Dong: "Zhang Dong, you first bring your grandfather's subordinates back to the Hou Mansion for good life and resettlement, and Ben Hou can send your grandfather to Beijing!" ”
As soon as these words came out, Chen Kan immediately received Qiu Fu's appreciative eyes.
Chen Kan's arrangement was exactly what he wanted, and he could only say that Chen Kan deserved to be the most holy teenager in the younger generation.
Look at this sleek person, he doesn't look like a young man in his twenties at all.
This time, he did come to help Zhu Di fight the front station.
If it weren't for the fact that his fame in Daming was too great and his prestige in the army was too high, this time he would have planned to quietly visit Weifu.
After all, Zhu Di has been on the throne in Nanjing for several years, and he has never returned to Beijing to see.
What Beijing is like today depends entirely on Zhang Guan's words.
Whether the people's lives are good, or whether these officials on the border of Beijing are whitewashing the peace, Zhu Di is not very clear.
Although there are many spies of Jinyiwei in Beijing, the information reported has nothing to do with ordinary people.
Zhu Di didn't want to come to Beijing in a hurry, but found that his land of Longxing was already full of holes.
It's no wonder that Zhu Di had to let Qiu Fu take a look first, mainly because when Zhu Di first raised his army, the people of Beijing City all supported him unconditionally.
If something goes wrong in Beijing, he, the emperor who made his fortune in Beijing, will be poked in the back.
"Then let's go into the city!"
Qiu Fu looked at Chen Kan with a smile and said.
Chen Kan pondered for a moment, bowed his head slightly, and said, "Grandpa, please!" ”
"Master Hou, please!"
The two walked down the Temple of Heaven with their arms, and Chen Kan only left more than 20 personal guards beside him.
Chen Kan took Qiu Fu all the way along the back of the Jinshui River, and finally the two entered Beijing City from Xizhimen.
As soon as he entered the city of Beijing, Qiu Fu's eyes flashed with inexplicable surprise, looking at the shops and wide streets on both sides of the street, his eyes were full of novelty.
"All of these shops are made of concrete?"
Qiu Fu spoke, and when he entered the city, he found that the moat of Beijing was different from other cities, but he didn't ask much.
But now looking at the shops that are very different from ordinary cities, I can't help but ask the question in my heart.
Chen Kan nodded and smiled: "Yes, most of the houses in Beijing are made of cement, including streets and city walls, which are also mixed with cement. ”
Cement is no longer a rarity in Beijing.
But in Nanjing, not many people know about it.
Qiu Fu had heard of it, but it was the first time he had seen it.
Looking at the solid floor and the wide street beneath his feet, Qiu Fu was a little stunned.
This city has long been very different from what he remembers.
But if there is anything wrong, he really can't say it for a while.
The wide streets, the spotless environment, and the greenery on both sides of the road are planted with not precious plants and trees, but they are also neatly maintained.
As for the shops, it is not like the one left in Nanjing, which only leaves a small door, but the entire shop is open to the outside world.
Restaurants, restaurants, silk villages, money houses, pharmacies, grocery stores, all kinds of goods are readily available.
Qiu Fu casually walked into a shop called a supermarket and walked around, and suddenly had a feeling that his eyes lit up.
The goods are neatly arranged on the shelves, and different commodities are also divided into different zones, so that people can wander around the shops at will, and there will be no shopkeepers to drive them away, and there are shopping guides in the shops to explain the goods.
Everything was something new to Chufo.
That's right, this supermarket is, of course, also the property of Houfu.
The 138 shops on the entire Xizhimen Street are all different.
Therefore, Xizhimen Street is also the most special and prosperous street in the whole Beijing.
Although the shops on other streets have also come to the shops on Xizhimen Street to learn from them, they are still not as good as these time-honored brands in Xizhimen after all!
As for why Chen Kan brought Qiu Fu here at the first stop, of course, it was to let him see the most real Beijing city.
