Xu Yingjie's courtyard is located in the north of the city, built near the river, divided into three entrances, this is a carved beam and painted building, chic and elegant. After some careful arrangement, the lanterns are colorful, and they are full of joy.

After Qin Mu entered the courtyard, he walked around and saw that the doors and windows were pasted with the word "Xi" in red in advance, and the potted flowers were fragrant everywhere.

It is worth mentioning that although Yun Qiao'er who was following behind her looked like it, she definitely did not have the rare expression of Grandma Liu entering the Grand View Garden, which made Qin Mu further conclude that the little girl must be from a big family.

"Lord Qin is still satisfied? If he felt that he was not satisfied, Xu immediately asked someone to rearrange it. Xu Yingjie, who accompanied Qin Mu to watch, said diligently.

"Xu Dongjia is noble, the official has written it down, it's already good like this, there is no need to trouble Xu Dongjia anymore."

"It's not troublesome, it's not troublesome, but it's good to ask Lord Qin to be satisfied." Xu Yingjie hurriedly responded, in his opinion, once Qin Mu and Yang Tinglin formed a son-in-law, one in charge of the army and the other in power, it would be even more difficult to shake in southern Gansu, so he was naturally more attentive to Qin Mu.

Qin Mu casually quipped: "This time, fortunately, the Xu Dongjia helped, otherwise the official could only be the son-in-law." ”

"Lord Qin laughed, Xu is just icing on the cake, why bother."

"Well, one acre, how much will it cost this time, you have to sort out the number, and settle it to the Xu Dongjia in the future."

Without waiting for Tian Yimu to answer, Xu Yingjie hurriedly said: "Lord Qin is too outward, the Lord cleared the charge of bandits for Xu, the grace is higher than the sky, and Xu should do his best for the adult." He thought about it for a moment, and then said: "This mansion should be a congratulatory gift from Xu to the adult, and I hope that Lord Qin will not refuse." ”

"Haha!" After listening to the loud voice, Qin Mu neither said that he would accept love, nor did he say that he would not accept it, "Let's go, this official will borrow flowers to offer Buddha tonight, and invite Xu Dongjia to have a drink." ”

From Qin Muqing's gaze, Xu Yingjie suddenly understood something, he really wanted to slap himself in the mouth. When he opened his mouth to send out the house just now, he hesitated a little in his heart, after all, this mansion is spacious and gorgeous, and the price is not a small amount.

But from Qin Mu's laughter, Xu Yingjie suddenly understood how ridiculous he was, such a house was probably not worth mentioning in Qin Mu's heart, judging from what Qin Mu did in Huichang, it was not difficult to guess what he was looking at, for such a person, what was a small house worth mentioning?

If he thinks about this again, it will only make Qin Mu look down on him, and after thinking about this, Xu Yingjie straightened his clothes, straightened his body, and never mentioned the matter of sending the house again, but just went to drink with Qin Mu.

On the day of marriage, the entire city of Ganzhou was boiling.

The people of the city flocked to both sides of the road to welcome relatives early, the walls and trees were full of people, jubilant, and discussed, and the children with braided hair were crowded in front of them in groups of three or five, all of them stretched their necks, waiting for the team to appear to welcome the relatives, so as to catch up and sing congratulations and please the sugar.

Qin Mu of Huichang Zhixian County marries a woman, the prefect marries a daughter, and the gentry and wealthy households in the city, who does not compete to congratulate him? The streets were full of traffic, and the people in fresh clothes were all people who had gone to the wedding banquet with gifts.

Seeing the crowd of guests, the scene was extremely lively, Qin Mu secretly wondered, it was just ordinary people crowded to see the excitement, and the officials and gentry and wealthy families in the city also rushed to come, this is a little weird, is his reputation so high?

When the city of Ganzhou was in danger, it was still his own idea to let Yang Tinglin borrow money and grain, it would be good if these officials and gentry and rich families did not hold grudges, and they would compete to add icing on the cake?

Well, it seems that people are just giving Yang Tinglin face, after all, although Yang Tinglin forcibly borrowed their money and grain, he was very trustworthy, and after the seizure of the goods back to Niuxi Town, he returned the money and grain to them.

Qin Mu didn't have the time to do more about this, since he got up early in the morning, he was fiddled with by a group of old mothers, first dressed up inside and out, and then listened to their constant nagging, pay attention to this, pay attention to that, what to say when you get to the door, and even take the foot first when you enter the door, you have to remember it first, so that Qin Mu is one head and two big.

When he was dressed up in flowers, dressed in saffron, riding a big horse, and preparing to go to the mansion with the welcoming procession to pick up his relatives, he saw Meng Ke, Ma Yongzhen, Cui Feng, Huo Sheng, Ling Zhan and others rushing together, these guys were dressed up one by one, as if they were the ones who married their daughters-in-law, Qin Mu couldn't help but ask in surprise: "You?" Why are you all here? ”

Huo Sheng squeezed forward, snatched the reins of his horse and said with a smile: "My lord, look at what you said, today is your big day, of course we have to come to support the adult, my lord, please think, Governor Yang didn't earn you to snub her daughter, let's cheer for the adult together, make the scene lively, and look at what Governor Yang has to say." ”

"You're here yourself?" Qin Mu blurted out.

"My lord, are you dizzy, it's not that we want to come by ourselves, is it possible that someone will tie us up?"

"Nonsense, why didn't you tell me beforehand."

"My lord, we are definitely coming on your big day, what else is there to say, what's wrong with you?"

"My lord, the auspicious time has come, I can't talk anymore, hurry up, play music and set off" Tian Yimu, the celebrant of ceremonies, shouted and drank in a dumb voice, and the team to greet the relatives immediately moved;

Although Qin Mu had some doubts in his heart, he couldn't think about it, he hurriedly pulled Ma Yongzhen and asked him to rush back to Huichang immediately and take care of Huichang's people and horses.

Although Qin Mu couldn't think of what the problem was for a while, he always felt strange in his heart, in line with the principle of being careful to sail a 10,000-year-old ship, he still let Ma Yongzhen go back to take charge of the army, which is called having a gun in his hand and not panicking in his heart.

Ma Yongzhen was the leader of the rebels, and this occasion was incompatible, Qin Mu asked him to return to Huichang, which was exactly what he wanted, and after responding, he hurried out of the city with a few personal soldiers.

"Drive!" As soon as he came out of the crowded Ganzhou capital city, Ma Yongzhen drew his war horse and went away with a few personal soldiers, to be honest, Qin Mu's wedding, he couldn't come to participate, but he was once a bandit leader, and he was very uncomfortable in the face of the officials and gentry in Ganzhou City;

After going out of the city, looking at the vast cloudy sky, I couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, the horse galloped up, set off a yellow dust and galloped eastward, when passing through the east of the Merlin, the front two horses suddenly lost their front hooves, rumbled and overturned out, the change came too suddenly, Ma Yongzhen slammed the horse, but it was still late, and the mount then kicked on the tripping horse.

A good Ma Yongzhen, let out a loud cry in his mouth, pressed the horse's back with his right hand, and the whole person flipped out of the air, although he staggered and stood unsteadily when he landed, the long knife was already out of the sheath, and after rolling twice on the ground, he stood up on the trunk of a plum tree.

The two pro-soldiers in the back also adjusted in time, and jumped over the tripping rope, "General, general, are you okay?" ”

"Don't worry about me, you rush quickly, hurry back to Huichang, this is a military order, hurry!" Qin Mu suddenly sent him back to Huichang before the wedding banquet, which was very abnormal, just out of Ganzhou and encountered an ambush, Ma Yongzhen's first reaction was the same as Qin Mu, sending someone back to Huichang to report the news and master the army.

"General!" The two pro-soldiers screamed in grief, neither could bear to leave Ma Yongzhen, but also did not dare to disobey the military order, and lost ground for a while.

At this time, there was a sound of hurried footsteps in the plum forest, and I saw twenty or thirty Ming troops rushing out on each side, all of them had been wound with arrows, as long as they let go, the cold arrows would surely whistle.

Ma Yongzhen They are here to attend the wedding, they have no armor on their bodies, and it is tantamount to a fool's dream to rush out in the rain of arrows.

"Who are you? It will be Ma Yongzhen, a thousand households in Huichang, let your leaders come out and speak. Ma Yongzhen judged the situation and understood that there was only a dead end, so he planned to delay it for a while.

"Dismount." Among the people in ambush, a man who looked like a hundred households stood up and pointed to the two personal soldiers on the horse and shouted.

Ma Yongzhen stopped the two soldiers from drawing their swords in time: "Get off the horse." ”

"General"

"Dismount." Ma Yongzhen snorted, the ambusher is the Ming army, not a bandit, so he must have some scruples when he acts, as long as he does not resist, the other party is unlikely to kill immediately, otherwise he will not let himself be captured, wouldn't it be clean to shoot with a random arrow? After figuring this out, Ma Yongzhen decided not to resist senselessly. He said to the ambushed hundred, "What do you want to do? ”

"Those who know the times are Junjie, Ma Yongzhen, you'd better obediently tie your hands and catch it, otherwise don't blame us for having no eyes for swords and arrows."

"Who sent you here to ambush the general?"

"Ma Yongzhen, you better tie your hands and arrest it first, and you will know by then."
