In the early morning of the second day, after settling with Zhang Mingli in Tiannan Qianzhuang, Dong Mingjue was ready to leave Qianzhuang and set off for Lingao.

Zhang Mingli witnessed the rise and decline of the Gao family and the whole process of Dong Mingjue's replacement, and even the fate of Dong Mingjie and Xia Nan was seen from beginning to end. Seeing that this young girl was about to become the concubine of the Xia family, and was about to take over the financial power in the Qiong naval system, she was very envious.

He said to Dong Mingjue: "Congratulations to Dong Shopkeeper on his double happiness, he will fly to the high branches every day, but don't forget to take care of the old people in Guangzhou." ”

Dong Mingjue naturally knows which double happiness this double happiness refers to, one is about to become Xia Nan's concubine, and the other is to become the financial director of the entire Qiong Navy, no matter which identity it is, it is enviable.

She was a little embarrassed, but more of a man was full of ambition, and said with a red face: "Brother Zhang said that he laughed, the maid is a weak female streamer, how can he take care of a capable person in a shopping mall like you?" ”

Zhang Mingli said with a smile: "Shopkeeper Dong will definitely be expensive in the future, but it's good that each other understands this matter, and it's hard to say it now." It's not too early, and I asked Miss Dong to leave early, which delayed the general's good deeds, and I can't afford this responsibility. ”

These words have a deep meaning, but Dong Mingjue seems to understand it. She couldn't imagine what Zhang Mingli said: Now she is the concubine of the Xia family, and in the future, as Xia Nan wins the world, she will have the opportunity to become a concubine, and her status is several times more noble?

After bidding farewell to Zhang Mingli, Dong Mingjue returned to Dong's mansion, and there was already a long row of carriages lined up in front of the door, which were filled with her and Aunt Jiang's belongings and the net worth accumulated in the past two years. The groom in the carriage was already ready, and he rushed to the dock at the order of her hostess.

Dong Mingjue looked at the plaque of "Dong Mansion" on the gate, and felt quite melancholy in his heart, this time, this house that has placed too many memories on his own will be abandoned, and he will look at each other across the sea from now on, if he sells it, he is reluctant.

Seeing this, a long man from Nanyuan next to him asked, "Miss Dong is reluctant to give up this house?" Don't worry, Mrs. said that Miss Dong can stay in this house as a courtyard, and in the future, she will return to Guangzhou Province to live here, which is considered the Xia family's property. ”

Dong Mingjue was overjoyed, this arrangement is the best, she is really a good sister, and she thinks about herself in everything.

She got into the first carriage of the convoy and told the coachman: "Go! ”

The sound of gurgling wheels sounded, and the long convoy slowly left Dong's Mansion and headed for the dock.

The "Maria" clipper ship chopped through the waves, and Dong Mingjue's mother and daughter stepped on the cement wharf of Bofu Port in the afternoon.

The last time Lin Gao was two years ago, and Bofu Port has undergone earth-shaking changes. Looking at the dense merchant ships in the port, the long queue waiting to pay taxes at the port, and the lively shops and bustling crowds along the street, Dong Mingjue couldn't close his mouth in surprise. The last time I came here, although the Bofu Port was well-equipped and the road was clean, it was a little deserted, except for the warships of the Qiong Navy, there were very few ships coming and going, but I didn't expect that in just two years, it would change so much.

Aunt Jiang didn't have the heart to look at the diorama, she had been sitting on the high ground since she set foot on the high ground, thinking about the embarrassment of waiting to see her "uncle" - although this aunt didn't know what was going on with each other, but she herself felt very sad to get through this hurdle.

The entourage who was in charge of picking up Dong Ming's mother and daughter in Guangzhou guided them to board a railroad, and the rest of the soft belongings were also written down from the ship and loaded into other railcars. As the bell rang for the front of the car, several horse-drawn carriages drove smoothly towards the South Park.

The embarrassing scene that Aunt Jiang imagined did not happen, they got out of the carriage, boarded the two soft sedan chairs that had been prepared in front of the South Park Gate, and entered the garden through the side gate. Xia Nan did not appear, but Xie Wenjun greeted them.

Xie Wenjun explained to Dong Mingjue: "Today, the master has something important to do, and he is not in the mansion, and he doesn't know that you can arrive today, and there is a conflict of time." He asked me to tell you to stay in peace and take up a few days of rest before taking office. ”

Aunt Jiang secretly sighed, but Dong Mingjue's eyes slowly turned red.

She has already put the requirements very low, a concubine room, without any ceremony, and a sedan chair from the side door can be carried in, who makes the concubine room have no status? Besides, most of the people in the world take concubines like this, it's okay to enter from the side door, and there are also those who enter through the corner door of the back door. However, the man who took the concubine was not in the mansion and was busy with other things, which made people's hearts congested, so I would meet today. Even if he left a message, he didn't mention anything about the marriage of the concubine, and only cared about letting her take up the post of director one day.

Xie Wenjun looked at Dong Mingjue's expression, sighed, and said comfortingly: "Don't think about it, the master didn't deliberately ignore you, he does have something very important, involving thousands of people." Don't worry, as long as the master comes back, I will tell him to have a ...... with you as soon as possible."

Dong Mingjue thanked in a low voice: "Mrs. Xie cares. ”

Xie Wenjun originally wanted to explain a few more words, but she also knew that this good sister had a sensitive personality and strong self-esteem because of what happened in her childhood, and saying too much might be counterproductive, so she held back and ordered her subordinates to take the mother and daughter to a room that had been cleaned long ago to rest.

The protagonist of the concubine is now in the office of the Intelligence Department not far from the South Park to meet with several spies and envoys who are about to be sent to the northwest and Liaodong.

This office is a four-story small building specially allocated to him by Xia Nan after Wang Qinian officially took office, which is not too big, but it is enough. In Xia Nan's words, the main force of the intelligence department is to send intelligence personnel abroad, and there is no need for too many people in the headquarters, as long as there are enough manpower to liaise, analyze the enemy's situation, and report it in a timely manner.

After Wang Qinian took office, he acted vigorously and resolutely, keeping in mind the tasks assigned by Xia Nan, and after preparing for a period of time, he formulated a detailed plan, selected suitable candidates, and prepared to set off on a certain day.

Xia Nan attaches great importance to these things, and he doesn't even care about taking concubines, so he comes over in person to explain the matters that should be paid attention to.

Wang Qinian introduced him one by one: "General, this is Zhang Geming, his ancestral home is Shandong, but his mother is from northern Shaanxi, she can speak northern Shaanxi, and the secret agents who are going to be sent to Liukou are headed by him; This is Chu Shengchang, whose ancestral home is Liaodong, and he will take a few people to mix into the territory of the Tartars. The two of them once infiltrated Dengzhou and made great contributions to the army's breakthrough of Dengzhou and the suppression of the rebels. This is Liu Heizi, a staff officer of the Military Discipline Staff Office, who plans to be sent to northern Shaanxi as an envoy of our army to liaise with Li Zicheng, the 'breaking general'. ”
