In the Qin Mansion, Qin Zhao asked Du Wenwen very unceremoniously: "Du Hanlin, I want to know why Yunqing has been promoted two levels in a row?"

Du Wenwen said helplessly: "General Qin, it's not the prince who made Yunqing upgrade two levels in a row, it's Yu Xiang's excerpt. You should know the weight of Yu Xiang in the court, Yu Xiang said that Yun Qing's military exploits are much higher than his current position, and if he wants to be promoted, Yun Qing will be fair, how can others refute it?"

When Qin Zhao heard this, a bad premonition appeared in his heart: "Okay, how could Yu Xiang interfere in Yunqing's affairs?"

Du Wenshu didn't hide it from Qin Zhao, and said: "The Yu family wants to get involved in the military power, but they can't win over General Qin at the Yu family, so they hit Yun Qing with their ideas. The prince was worried that Yunqing would throw himself into the Yu family, so he sent me to appease him. General Qin, please rest assured, the prince values you the most. After speaking, he took out two letters from his arms and handed them to Qin Zhao, saying, "One is the prince's handwritten letter, and the other is the letter from the mother to the general." ”

Qin Zhao took the letter, first read the prince's handwritten letter, and then read Qin Yue's letter. The prince wrote some reassuring words in the letter, and Qin Yue's letter said that she was pregnant and pregnant with the prince's child.

Knowing that Qin Yue was pregnant, Qin Zhao was overjoyed. If his sister gave birth to a son, then he would have a firm foothold in the East Palace.

Du Wenwen looked at Qin Zhao's face and said, "General, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince knows that this matter has made it difficult for you. However, the prince also said that when you make military merits again, you will definitely be promoted and let Yunqing be under you. "The problem is that if Qin Zhao wants to be promoted, he must first have military merits, otherwise Yu Xiangke will have something to say.

Qin Zhao said: "Please rest assured, I will definitely live up to the prince's expectations." "In the big war after the beginning of spring, he must make military achievements to succeed.

Du Wenwen felt that Qin Zhao was much more obedient than Yunqing, and he also had to be appeased, unlike Yunqing, who was hard-hearted, and he didn't take the prince's wooing seriously. Thinking of this, Du Wenwen said, "General Qin, I will return to Beijing tomorrow." In the future, I would like to ask you to pay more attention to Yunqing's affairs. "There must be someone on his side who is monitoring this Yunqing, but if Qin Zhao monitors this Yunqing again, then it will be a double insurance.

Qin Zhao thought for a moment and said: "I also have two points of understanding of Yunqing, he is unruly, arrogant, and unwilling to submit to anyone. However, his wife Han is not simple, she has only been married for half a year, and she has let Yunqing be obedient to her. Master Du, Han Gong is a member of the Yu family, I think the Yu family will definitely start from the Han family if they want to return to Yunqing. "This means that not only Yunqing must be monitored, but also Han Yuxi must be monitored.

Du Wenwen naturally knew that Han Jianming had taken refuge in the Yu family, but now he was keeping filial piety at home, but he didn't expect that he would be uneasy to keep filial piety. However, Qin Zhao's words, he couldn't believe them all, at most he was half-convinced, and nodded immediately and said, "This matter is very important, I will go back and tell His Royal Highness the Prince." "I went back to the post station about this, and let people inquire about it again to see if what Qin Zhao said was true.

After talking about business, it's time for a drink. Qin Zhao clapped his hands, and six women in bright red clothes walked in from outside, dancing to the melodious music.

Du Wenwen frowned. Even if he didn't like Yunqing's attitude, Yunqing at least fulfilled his duties in military affairs and did not slack off in the slightest. On the other hand, Qin Zhao, the first general, is here to sing and dance, wine and food.

The short entourage beside Du Wenwen said with a smile: "General Qin, the lower officials look at these two beauties and the Central Plains women, don't they look the same?" These six women are tall and tall, and their eyes are deep green, so they are not Central Plains women.

Qin Zhao smiled: "These are all women from the Western Regions. ”

Du Wenwen is not interested in watching the beauty, but he can't leave, otherwise the relationship with Qin Zhao will be stiff, and it will not end well.

After lunch, Du Wenwen took the group back to the post station. Back at the post station, the henchmen sent out by Du Wenwen to inquire about the news also returned.

Most of the things are actually already known to Du Wenwen, such as Yuxi opening a restaurant and a restaurant in Yucheng and the establishment of Qingfeng Hall: "Is there anything else?" But to think that Han is a powerful person from this incident is a bit exaggerated.

The henchman said: "And last year, because of the Qingfeng Hall, the Han family came forward to the yamen to hand over the complaint and sued the fourth master of the Xu family. Then he told Du Wenwen about the cause and effect of this incident, and also told Yuxi's counterattack.

After listening to this, Du Wenwen looked solemn and said: "Are those things that have been circulated true?" He has seen a lot of rumors in the capital, and they are all tricks that some women like to play. Moreover, before he came, he inquired about some things about the Han family, how to say it, it is not very brilliant, but it is not mediocre, and he is not a submissive person, otherwise he would not have passed to the big house. Therefore, Du Wenwen thinks that Han Yuxi is a little smart, but not very wise. As for making Yunqing obedient to her, this woman's biggest asset to conquer a man is not intelligence, but appearance. It is very obvious that Han has this capital. Of course, Du Wenwen does not despise Han for this, you must know that a woman's pillow wind is also very powerful.

The henchman nodded and said, "It's all true, there is not a word of lie." ”

Du Wenwen heard that the color was very ugly. shouting bitterness every day, shouting poverty every day, the soldiers don't even have a new cotton coat for the winter, but he Qin Zhao and the Xu family live a life of fine clothes and food. At this moment, Du Wenwen's impression of Qin Zhao was extremely bad.

The henchman paused and said, "I also heard that yesterday there was an assassin who wanted to kill the Han clan in the name of Princess Jing, but he was discovered by the people around the Han clan and did not succeed. ”

Du Wenwen was stunned when he heard this, and asked, "Is this true?" Regarding King Jing's letting Yuchen be a lobbyist, Du Wenwen was not very clear. But when it happened at this time, he was not stupid, and knew that it must be the meaning of the crown prince or the king.

The henchman nodded and said, "This news was released by Yunfu, and it should be true." I also heard that the Assassin had a sign on his body that said "Respect for the Prince's Mansion". Many people say that the Xu family did this in order to take revenge on Mrs. Yun. ”

The master and servant were talking, when they heard someone outside shouting: "Lord Du, the Qin Mansion has sent something over, Lord Du has come to take a look." "The so-called things are actually people, just a few beauties I saw just now, beauties from the Western Regions.

The short man had just been at the banquet, and his eyes had not taken his eyes off the bodies of these exotic beauties. Seeing Qin Zhao send someone over this time, he was extremely satisfied with Qin Zhao's knowledge. Except for Du Wenwen, everyone else was very satisfied.

Although Du Wenwen was disdainful, he still pointed to a woman casually. His finger shows that this woman is what he likes. A person who walks in the officialdom will not be able to go far if he is unusually high. Du Wenwen can climb to the position of the five-grade Hanlin attendant in less than thirty, and he is favored by the prince, so he is naturally not a pedantic and high-minded person.

The next day, Du Wenwen went to the military camp of the Dingbei Army to find Yunqing, wanting to know more about the preparations for the war in Kaichun. It's a pity that Yunqing didn't see him, and it was still Huo Changqing who came out to accompany him. However, Huo Changqing also explained his various problems in detail.

When he returned to the post station in the evening, his entourage came over and said, "My lord, Mrs. Yun knows that we are going back to Beijing tomorrow, so she has sent a few boxes of things. ”

Du Wenwen said: "What did you send?" Yun Qing dragged it so much, this Han clan is not bad in terms of human relations.

The attendant said, "It's all some worthless specialties. In addition, there are two boxes, which are sealed, saying that they are gifts for Princess Jing. The person carrying the object said that the box was particularly heavy, and that it might be filled with jade. "What I gave to Princess Jing was jade, and what I gave to them was some dried fruits and other specialties, which is really not a big difference. It's just that the thing is for the princess, and no one dares to say that they won't give it away.

Seeing this, Du Wenwen said: "Since it was delivered, then take it!"

The group stayed in Yucheng for three days and then set off to go back, and the group that followed Du Wenwen was a little complaining, but in the face of Du Wenwen's tough attitude, everyone could only compromise.

Xu Wu and Yuxi said: "Madam, the Qin Mansion did not send anything to Du Hanlin and his party. Madam, this is a bit strange, in the past, people from the capital would send a lot of things to the Qin Mansion, but this time it is unusual?"

Yuxi said with a smile: "Last year's incident was in an uproar, and the Qin family is trying to avoid suspicion." "Even if you want to give a gift, you will only give it privately.

Zi Jin heard this and said, "Madam, the Qin family didn't send anything to those people, but we sent several boxes of things!" Although it is a worthless thing, others don't know it! Others thought they had given a heavy gift.

Hearing this, Yuxi laughed and said, "Those things add up to a hundred taels, and they are not enough for people to help me bring jade? If you want to say whatever they say, no one can stop them. "Most of these jade stones were exchanged for Yu Xitao. Jade is not worth much here, and even the price of the best jade is not too expensive.

Zi Jin smiled: "And say that I picked it! You might as well not give those things!"

Yuxi smiled: "It's just to show the meaning, and these things can be eaten on the road, which is very practical." Yun Qing didn't speak, could it be that she still paid for the ceremony out of her own pocket. If you pay for it, not only will you not get good, but you will be beaten by Yunqing. Of course, the main reason is that Yuxi thinks that they will not take refuge in the prince anyway, and they are not all the way, so there is no need to curry favor. Otherwise, she will pay for it even if she digs a private house.
