The chill of the winter nights is awe-inspiring. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 info North Wind Call.

Zheng Guogong Deng Hong and his generals came back from drinking, and pondered slightly in the shaking carriage. He had just received definite news: Jia Huan was leaving Jinling.

For this teenager, he had mixed feelings. Of course, there is no doubt that the relationship and position are hostile.

He invited Qin to send Ning Ru to eat and drink some time ago, and Ning Ru gave him a few words to let him get out of this raging storm of Jinling grain case. The price paid is not enough for outsiders. In front of his subordinates, he will always be confident. But in fact, if a person drinks water, he knows whether he is warm or cold.

Now, this young man who stirred up and dominated the situation in Jinling is finally leaving.

His heart was relieved, as if a tiger was about to leave.

…

…

In the night, in front of the deserted Zhen family, a carriage slowly drove in. After a while, the servants sent the somewhat fluttering Zhen Li to the Hanging Flower Gate, and some servants then sent it to the inner courtyard.

When he returned home, Zhen Li relaxed and scolded: "Paralyzed, a group of turtle grandchildren, just thinking about blackmailing our family." It's all a few things. ”

In the bedroom, Zhen Li's wife Xu was chatting with the third girl, Zhen Yi, and hurriedly took over her husband from the maid and mother-in-law. Bowing her head and weeping, she served her husband to sleep peacefully.

Zhen Yi on the side had a sad mood in his heart.

The situation at home is not very good. Burdened with a huge debt of 2 million taels of silver. The pressure up and down was extremely extreme, and even the second brother of Bao became more serious. The eldest brother is selling his property, but often thousands of taels of silver for antiques, calligraphy and paintings can only be sold for hundreds of taels.

All this was given by the young man who was about to leave Jinling.

Sha Sheng, the governor of Huaiyang, wrote to the Zhen family of the imperial court to participate in the Zheng family's trafficking in illicit salt, and the conclusive evidence has spread to Jiangnan. And the initiator of the raid on the Zheng family was Jia Huan.

Zhen Yi was thinking: When she sees that young man again now, can she guarantee to ask him like she did when she first met him?

Her regrets and lamentations on Mihang Street that day were very indifferent. He is the final winner.

And the Zhen family has declined.

…

…

At night, the Qinhuai River is still singing and dancing, and the lights are bright and green. It's just that the situation in Jinling is changing, and the passers-by on the Qinhuai River are in a hurry. The young masters and sons of the Chen family and the Zhen family have all disappeared.

In the Yunyan Courtyard of Zhushi City on the south bank of the Qinhuai River, the sound of the flute is long, such as crying and complaining. The regular customers who often come know that this is Liu Ruyan, a famous prostitute in Jiangnan, giving a. Superb skills.

On the second floor of an attic in Yunyan Courtyard, Liu Ruyan was blowing a vertical Xiao intently. The figure is graceful and slender.

Behind her, Su's mother in Yunyan Courtyard chattered: "Daughter, my mother was also helpless when she was forced by Zhen Da Shao that day." You and Jia Sanye have an old relationship, go and beg him, our mother's life is not easy? ”

Liu Ruyan did not speak. Her good sister Su Shishi was kicked out of Yunyan Courtyard that day. She couldn't. Now, Mr. Jia's teacher Zhang Anbo has been promoted to the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, and Yunyanyuan has been punished by Mr. Zhongsan in the Oiran Competition, and his life is a little sad.

However, she didn't ask Mr. Jia for ideas. It's useless. Isn't what happened to Song Ruoyu proof it?

She was wondering where Su Shishi, who is now the world's Oiran, is. She knows the famous song sung from Lin Qianwei on the Qinhuai River in the south of the Yangtze River: If life is only as first seen, what is the autumn wind and sad fan?

Mr. Jia is leaving Jinling.

…

…

The news that Jia Huan was leaving Jinling and returning to the capital spread far and wide. But that's not news. Because the Son of Heaven has opened Enke, all those who are interested in the field will arrive in Beijing before February next year. On the contrary, Jia Huan had not left until mid-November, and it was actually a little late. He definitely needs to return to Jingshi's home before the Spring Festival.

Some people are relaxed about his departure, some people are resentful, and some people sigh, but Jia Huan himself is still dealing with the trivial matters in Jinling. He took Daiyu to Suzhou to worship Lin Ruhai and his wife and Aunt Pei, which delayed time.

However, the time to leave is getting closer. Scheduled for November 19. Yuan Bo, Qian Huai, Hu Xiaosi and others are all busy. Zhang Chengjian, Ji Ming, Master Bai, and Xiao Youan all helped Jia Huan deal with some affairs.

He Yuanlong and Master He both returned to Yangzhou. Shafutai is still busy in disaster relief. He is not like Wei Hong, who can prepare for promotion.

Nanjing's household department is an idle position, with merit, and if there is a vacancy, you can be promoted. The governor of Huaiyang is a real job. We have to consider the direction of stabilizing the local area and the overall situation. At least until the victims of Huainan settle down by next summer. It is impossible for the governor of Saudi Arabia to be transferred.

On the morning of November 17, Jia Huan summoned the housekeepers and stewards of Rong and Ning in the Jia Mansion in Derun Fang. Tell the children and subordinates of the clan not to make trouble.

The Zhen family has fallen. However, the power of the Jia family in Jinling has not weakened, but has increased. The fundamental reason is that Jia Huan let the people of Jinling see the "power" of Concubine Jia. And soon after, Jia Yuanchun will be crowned a concubine. She is the foundation of the Jia family's power in the next few years.

When he was waiting for the result of the imperial court's punishment in Jinling, he had already written to Jia Zheng to explain the matter and situation in Jinling, and asked him to tell Jia Yuanchun.

After Jia Huan admonished him, he pushed out a young man beside him and introduced him to the housekeepers of Rong and Ning, "This is Shi Yu, the big guy of the original Chen family's rice shop." He was in charge of my perfume business in Jinling. ”

In the main hall, more than a dozen Jia Mansion stewards who gathered were in a bit of a commotion. Steward Liu and Steward Wu, the left-behind managers of the two prefectures, all looked at Jia Huan with shocked expressions. They didn't expect that the third master would hand over a business with an annual profit of nearly 10,000 taels of silver to a young man.

Jia Huan didn't explain, and said, "You cooperate with him." If Yang Feng Yin is violated, presumably there are still some people in charge of Zhuangzi who are in charge of the Lai family outside the city. ”

The dozen or so housekeepers who said this were suddenly silent. Then he bowed neatly and saluted, and said in unison: "Yes, third master!" ”

The third master is originally authoritative. After he "killed" the Chen family, in the Jia family, at least here in Jinling, it is definitely a good word.

Of course, the children and servants of the Jia family are now doing things in Jinling, and they do feel the convenience brought by the third master's "tiger power".

Shi Yu is in his twenties, tall and mediocre. Doing things in a very orderly manner, at this time he bowed down and saluted the housekeepers, "The kid has just arrived, and where things are not done well, please take more responsibility for the face of the third master." ”

That's a beautiful thing to say.

Jia Huan nodded slightly. Shi Yu and Master Bai are the talents he recruited in Jinling and after the fall of his opponents.

As early as a month ago, Shi Yu came to recommend himself to him. At that time, this young man had a sentence that touched him, "Master Jia, since you want to change the owner, why not change to a stronger and more promising owner?" The household department stabilized food prices, and there must be a master behind that series of methods. I am willing to follow and learn from Master Jia. ”

…

…

Handle the affairs of the Jia family, and at noon, Jia Huan took his entourage to Weifu to attend a luncheon. There was a lot of traffic in front of the door. The carriages of the crowd blocked the alley. The Wei government sent his subordinates to maintain order in the alley.

Fortunately, Jia Huan came by boat. Very lightweight. Not to be blocked.

This scene in front of Weifu can't help but remind Jia Huan of the scene when he arrived in Jinling in August a year ago and sent letters to Wei Hong for Wei Kang and Wei Yang: in the cold autumn time, the cinnamon is fragrant. There are few visitors.

The porter of the Wei family knew Jia Huan and sent someone to bring Jia Huan in, and the entourage had another place to entertain him. Jia Huan sat in a quiet room for a while, and Wei Jian came in to accompany the guests.

Wei Jian is Wei Hong's second son, in his thirties, wearing a fish-white scholar's shirt, and his wooden expression smiled after seeing Jia Huan. He had cooperated with Jia Huan in Huating, and knew that this awesome young man who was almost a beast in Jinling officialdom was actually very easy-going in private, so he bowed his hand and said, "I've seen Jia Xiaolian." My father met the new official Wu Shangshu, and was chatting, and he would come over later. ”

Jia Huan smiled and nodded, "Brother Wei is polite." "The new prefect of Jinling, the secretary of the ministry, the secretary of the household, and several squires have all taken office in Jinling recently.

Small talk for a moment. Wei Hong walked in outside the door in a light gray casual suit, and said happily: "Ziyu, you finally remembered to come to me to say goodbye." "Wei Hong is fifty-eight years old, slightly old, and slightly fat.

Jia Huan got up and said: "The affairs are complicated, don't blame Wei Shangshu." ”

Wei Hong smiled and made a gesture, motioning for Jia Huan to sit down, no need to be formal. He sat on the pear blossom wooden chair in the center and ordered: "Jian'er, you order the kitchen to send some wine and food, and I will drink with Ziyu at noon." ”

Wei Jian was stunned for a moment, and promised to withdraw.

Jia Huan's heart moved. Wei Hong gave him a high courtesy. Eating with Zheng Er Pin Shangshu is a sign of great intimacy when he is not a disciple of Wei Hong.

Wei Hong smiled calmly and said, "Ziyu doesn't have to be formal. Before the battle between me and Chen Gaolang began, it was ended by Ziyu. I want to lead Ziyu to a favor. Hube Huishang will be a year ago. I won't go to the capital until the handover is completed after the year. ”

With Wei Hong's vision and level, he naturally wouldn't say to Jia Huan, I knew that your sister was so powerful..., this kind of thing. The fundamental reason why Jinling's power game was so victorious was that he followed Jia Huan's suggestion, stabilized the price of grain in Jinling, and organized grain transportation to support the Huainan disaster area.

Jia Huan said humbly: "Congratulations to Wei Shangshu." ”

Wei Hong laughed, and then said: "I have already reported the documents of Xugong to the imperial court. It is estimated that you will be able to increase your official position by one level in the future. Ziyu is going to the capital to compete in the spring, and he must take the emperor's list in order to live up to what he has learned and live up to his life. ”

With Jia Huan's age, as long as he is in the middle of the thirteenth year of Yongzhi, he will definitely have a bright future. In addition, add the support of Jia Guifei. With the friendship between him and Jia Huan, coupled with the friendship of his grandson Weiyang's classmates, the Wei family can also benefit.

Jia Huan smiled and nodded, "I will." "The merit of the household department will be honored when he is awarded the rank after he is admitted to the jinshi.

Just as the wine and food were delivered, Wei Hong and Jia Huan laughed and chatted about the interesting anecdotes of the officialdom in the capital. He had just received a letter from his eldest son, Wei Kang, from home. It includes the inference of Concubine Jia's promotion to concubine.

The sun at noon and Xi fell softly on the plum blossoms outside the quiet room.

Jia Huan and Wei Shangshu talked a lot. (To be continued.) )
