Si Yuhuan and Lin Zishu washed up and saw that the yard was full of books, and they gathered around in surprise.

Xia Yan gently touched the book: "Wow, why are there so many books in the yard?" ”

Mu Nanjin, who came out of the house, said: "You see if there is a single book you want, if not, I will look for it again." ”

"Lonely?"

Si Yuhuan picked up a book and flipped through it, the content in it was all criminal laws.

She flipped to the next one, a book on strategy.

"These are very common books."

"Huh? What kind of painting is this? Why are a man and a woman naked and naked intertwined? ”

Xia Yan was shy and curious.

Lin Ziwen took a look before leaving, and suddenly turned red: "Ah, this is not a book you can read." ”

She hurriedly closed the book: "This is the picture of the spring palace." ”

"Spring, spring palace map?" Xia Yan was dumbfounded.

"Spring palace map? There is also a picture of the spring palace in the book? Mu Nanjin was very curious to open the book, and saw that the characters painted in it were ugly to the sky, and suddenly lost interest: "One by one, they are really ugly, and they are boring." ”

Everyone: "......"

That's not the point, is it?

Mu Nanjin went back to the room and took out a stack of books and put them in front of Si Yuhuan: "You take a look at these books again." ”

These books were brought out by her from the emperor, and they shouldn't be far behind.

"A collection of epitaphs from the Ming, Tang and Northern Dynasties?"

Si Yuhuan opened it and read it carefully, and said happily: "This content is actually true." ”

Xia Yan asked: "Is Sister Si the only one?" ”

"It's not a unique book, but it's also a very rare book, a book that can't be bought in a bookstore, and we put it in the teahouse to definitely attract many literati to come in and read."

Mu Nanjin asked Si Yuhuan: "If you are asked to copy the content inside, and then take the copied book to the teahouse for people to read, will it still attract writers?" ”

"Literati look at the content, not the collection, and they don't care about that." Si Yuhuan asked, "Does Miss Mu want me to copy it?" ”

Mu Nanjin nodded: "I borrowed these books, and I will return them when you copy them." ”

"Do you agree to let us copy it?"

Mu Nanjin affirmed: "Agreed." ”

She had stolen the book from the emperor, and since she couldn't ask him if he agreed, she could only assume that he agreed.

Si Yuhuan flipped through another book, and then looked at Mu Nanjin with wide eyes in shock: "Miss Mu, this is a lonely book, a lonely book, can a single book be copied?" ”

"Copy."

Mu Nanjin went back to the house to get the official hat, and then came out and said: "I'm going to go to the upper duty, if you need money, look for Uncle Xu, and if you encounter something that can't be solved, go to the Governor's Mansion to find me." ”

"Value?"

The girls found out that she was really wearing an official uniform, and it was also the official uniform of Jinyiwei.

Si Yuhuan looked at Mu Nanjin in surprise: "The girl is Jinyiwei." ”

Mu Nanjin asked while putting on his hat, "Don't you already know?" ”

Si Yuhuan shook his head: "We always thought you were the daughter of an adult in the Jinyi Guard. ”

When she returned to Beijing, Mu Nanjin always wore regular clothes, and when the brocade guards called her, they only called her by her name or Mu Girl and Mu Girl.

"Don't talk about it, I'm going to be late, and Liu Baihu is going to be crooked again."

Mu Nanjin hurriedly left the courtyard.

Not noticing that the girls in the yard were looking at her with envy.

"It's good that a woman can be an official."

"I want to be an official, too."

Lin Zishu thought for a while and said, "Two months ago, I heard that there was a female official in the Jinyi guard in Beijing. At that time, everyone was rumored that she had obtained the position by improper means, and I thought so at the time. But now it seems that it is all misinformation, and it is not a problem to use Miss Wood's ability to sit in the position of the pacification envoy. ”

The others nodded in agreement.

Mu Nanjin was still late in the end, but he got not a reprimand, but a congratulatory message from the brocade guards.

"Congratulations to Lord Mu, Lord Heximu."

"Congratulations on what?"

Mu Nanjin was sweaty.

Everyone smiled mysteriously and didn't tell her the truth.

When he came to the left courtyard, Liu Baihu walked over with a smile: "Mu Nanjin, are you here?" Have you had breakfast? If I haven't eaten, I have breakfast in my library. Oh, by the way, after the next duty, I invite you to eat with Lord Kan and them, you can't slip away in advance. ”

Mu Nanjin looked at Liu Baihu suspiciously.

[I was late, and he didn't even scold me, but said that he wanted to invite me to dinner? 】

[What kind of wind is he smoking, so enthusiastic about me? 】

[There's nothing you want me to do, is there?] 】

Liu Baihu tapped her forehead: "Why are you looking at me with suspicion?" I'm genuinely inviting you to dinner. ”

"Oh." Mu Nanjin nodded.

"Let's go, let's go to the Governor's Academy."

Then, the Jinyi guards who passed by them began to congratulate one after another, but this time it was Liu Baihu.

"Congratulations to Liu Baihu, oh, no, we should call you Liu Qianhu."

"Congratulations to Liu Qianhu on his promotion, remember to give us the promotion candy."

"The Governor hasn't announced this yet, so don't scream." Liu Baihu reprimanded, but the corners of his mouth couldn't suppress the smile.

The brocade guards laughed: "It's all a matter on the nail board." ”

Mu Nanjin asked: "Liu Baihu has been promoted?" ”

"Thanks to you."

Liu Baihu originally thought that he would stay in the position of a noodle household for the rest of his life, but he didn't expect that he would skip the five hundred households and the deputy thousand households, and suddenly rise to the five thousand households. This is not only because of the meritorious service of suppressing the bandits, but more importantly, Mu Nanjin's elixir has greatly increased his strength.

You must know that in Jinyiwei, it is not only about the ability to do things, but also the excellent grade of the martial artist, he is now an eighth-grade martial artist, and he can fully afford the position of a thousand pairs.

"Congratulations."

Liu Baihu smiled heartily: "Thank you." ”

They came to the Governor's Academy.

Du Du Tongzhi, who was talking to the others, saw Mu Nanjin and said with a smile: "Our Mu Xiaoqi is here." ”

Mu Nanjin twisted his eyebrows: "Mu Xiaoqi? ”

[What kind of strange nickname is this?] Sounds weird. 】

The governor asked Liu Baihu, "Didn't you tell her?" ”

"Nope."

Liu Baihu knew that Mu Nanjin didn't like to be promoted, and he wouldn't be stupid enough to ruin his own happiness by preserving this matter in front of her.

"Mu Xiaoqi, you have been promoted." Du Du Tongzhi smiled: "Now you are from the seventh grade. ”

"Promotion?"

Mu Nanjin's face suddenly looked bad.

[To give me a promotion, it is more practical to give me money. 】

[I don't want to be promoted, the bigger the official, the greater the responsibility, and there are too many things]

[Depressed, I still want to be demoted, why did I get promoted? ] 】

[Otherwise, if I directly beat the governor and the acquaintance, then they will definitely not promote me again.] 】

The governor is ashamed.

It's not the official he promoted her, why do you want to beat him?

Liu Baihu whispered in Mu Nanjin's ear: "Actually, it's good to be a small flag, at least Xu Cheng and Yang Bo, who you brought back to Beijing, have a place to go." ”

The mountain bandits were suppressed, Xu Cheng and Yang Bo had nowhere to go, and they didn't know what work to do to support themselves for a while, so they returned to the capital with Mu Nanjin. Now he is arranged to live in Xiaotian Building, but it is never a long-term residence.

Mu Nanjin raised his eyebrows: "How do you say this?" ”

"The little flag bearer can bring ten nine-rank brocade guards, as long as you take the two of them into the brocade guards, they will be your people. If you have something you don't want to do in the future, let them do it, and they can also live in the Jinyi Guardhouse, and they can be regarded as having a place to live. ”

Mu Nanjin recalled his words: "You can bring ten Jiupin brocade guards ......"

[If I don't want to be on duty in the future, let the people under my hands go, if I don't want to run errands, I can let the people under my hands go, and let the people under me go whatever I want to eat or do what I want, then I can be lazy, and the officials from the seventh rank are not high, and there shouldn't be many things. 】

[Mmmm, seven products are seven products. 】

Governor Tongzhi: "......"

He can only say that Liu Baihu understands Mu Nanjin.

Mu Nanjin asked: "Then how do you let Xu Cheng and them join Jinyiwei?" ”

Liu Baihu patted his chest: "When I am officially promoted to a thousand households, that is a matter of my words." ”

Qianhu has the right to recruit people in, otherwise Tang Jingrui would not have brought Mu Nanjin into the Jinyi Guard.

It's just that after recruiting, it has to be reviewed by the superiors, first to appease the envoy for approval, and then handed over to the commander for approval, and finally decided by the governor.

He dared to say that the Governor would never object.

At least she wouldn't object to Mu Nanjin taking Xu Cheng and them, because she could control Xu Cheng and Yang Bo in the palm of her hand.

Mu Nanjin nodded.

Soon, the Jinyi Guard, who could be promoted, came to the Governor's Academy.

Then the governor and the governor read out the list of promotions and rewards, and then distributed new official uniforms.

The Jinyi guards have changed a lot, so they will prepare flying fish suits in advance to confirm each other's identities, but the official uniforms prepared will be relatively large, so they can only go back and ask someone to modify them.

Finally, the Governor declared the end over.

From this moment on, Liu Baihu really became Liu Qianhu.

Mu Nanjin also became Mu Xiaoqi.

Everyone was happy that their colleagues had been promoted and thanked each other.

Tang Jingrui walked up to Mu Nanjin with a complicated expression: "Mu Nanjin, congratulations on your promotion." ”

When I first recruited her, I never thought that she would be promoted, and it was not a problem to be promoted with her ability.

"Thank you." Mu Nanjin asked Liu Qianhu: "Liu Bai... Oh, no, Liu Qianhu, just the governor said how much reward do I have? ”

Liu Qianhu smiled and said, "He said that you have the greatest merit and a reward of three thousand taels." ”

In fact, no matter how great the merit is, it is impossible to have a reward of three thousand taels, but it is only because she is worried that she will remember the gold and silver treasures of the bandits again that the reward amount has increased by six times.

Alas, it was not easy to be her superior, and she had to always think about how to reward her so as not to hit the treasury.

Mu Nanjin turned back to Tang Jingrui and said, "When I receive the reward, you take them all back to your aunt and say that I honor her." ”

Tang Jingrui: "......"

She loves money so much but is willing to give all the rewards to Tang Liuzhao, is it really filial piety or out of guilt?

After the duty, Tang Jingrui returned to the Tang Mansion with three thousand taels.

In front of Old Man Tang and Old Lady Tang, he took out three thousand taels and put them in front of Tang Liuzhao.

Tang Liuzhao didn't know: "This is ......"

Tang Jingrui said: "Mu Nanjin has been promoted. ”

Tang Liuzhao was slightly stunned.

"Promoted?" Mrs. Tang couldn't help but raise her voice: "She was promoted again?" ”

Old Man Tang frowned: "Didn't she just get promoted a few days ago?" Why did you get promoted again? ”

Tang Jingrui said lightly: "She has made meritorious contributions." ”

"She's meritorious?" Old Madam Tang seemed to hear a big joke: "What merit can she make as a weak woman?" ”

Tang Jingrui didn't explain much: "In short, she has made meritorious contributions, so she is already a seventh-rank official." ”

"Seven pins?" Old Man Tang's eyes widened: "Skipping the eighth grade and rising to the seventh grade?" ”

If he makes meritorious service next time, won't he be able to rise to the fifth rank and be on an equal footing with his son and grandson?

Jiang Zhenru muttered: "She was promoted too quickly. ”

Mrs. Tang said with a bad face: "Is there a mistake?" How could she possibly be meritorious? ”

"Grandmother." Tang Jingrui lowered and called her: "Mu Nanjin's meritorious service is a good thing for us, and it can help the Tang family in the future." ”

Mrs. Tang and Old Man Tang felt comfortable when they heard this.

"It's not that we don't believe that a little girl can make meritorious contributions to be so excited." Old Man Tang coughed lightly and changed the topic: "Don't talk about this, let's talk about three thousand taels?" ”

"Three thousand taels is a reward given to Mu Nanjin by the imperial court, and she asked me to bring it back to my aunt, saying that it was filial piety to her."

Tang Liuzhao lowered his face and swept the silver ticket to the ground: "I don't want her things." ”

"You kid can't get along with money." Mrs. Tang glared at her angrily, got up and picked up the silver ticket and put it in her arms: "You don't want it, that lady will keep it for you first." ”

Tang Liuzhao: "......"

At this time, the guard guarding the door walked in: "Second young master, there are two brocade guards looking for you." ”

"Let them come to my study and find me." Tang Jingrui got up and said to Old Man Tang: "Grandfather, grandmother, mother, aunt, I and my father-in-law have retired in advance. ”

Old Man Tang said: "Business is important, go and get busy." ”

Tang Jingrui returned to the study in his courtyard, and not long after, two brocade guards came in, they were the people who were sent to investigate Mu Nanjin's matter a few days ago.

Tang Jingrui asked: "Do you have any results for your trip this time?" ”

One of the brocade guards said: "Don't live up to the trust, we really found out something." ”

Tang Jingrui hurriedly said: "Tell me quickly, what did you find?" ”

"The Mu family you asked us to find out, except for Mu Qinyi and his sister's children, all the others died under the epidemic. Later, Mu Qinyi took his sister's daughter to Beijing to look for relatives, but accidentally died of illness on the way, and finally a man with a female baby sent them back to their hometown for burial. ”

Tang Jingrui guessed that the man with the female baby might be the current Mu Qinyi, and the female baby was Mu Nanjin: "Do you know the name of this man?" ”

He is also surnamed Mu, and he said that he was a distant relative of Mu Qinyi, and he left with his daughter after burying Mu Qinyi and them, and never came back. We went to investigate Mu Qinyi's distant relatives again, but there was no such person, and the relatives of the Mu family also said that there was no such person. We couldn't find any clues, so we'll have to come back and report back to you. ”

Tang Jingrui also knew that they were doing their best, so he took out a hundred taels of silver tickets and put them on the table: "Thank you for your hard work, you can go down." ”

"Yes."

Jin Yiwei took the silver ticket and left.

Tang Jingrui got up and went to Tang Wenzong and told him the results of the investigation.

Tang Wenzong decided to wait for Mu Qinyi to come back and ask in person.

Thank you for the sweet tip, Momoda
