Zhu Gaoxu has not yet married, and his county palace has not yet broken ground. The so-called Gaoyang County Palace, to put it bluntly, is an ordinary courtyard on the outside of the Yan Palace, the eunuch palace maid plus a piece of less than ten people, in order to facilitate the practice of martial arts, a large racecourse was built on one side, and the playground was full of all kinds of weapons.

Xu Hao likes to live here very much, comfortable and unrestrained, there are really many rules in the Yanwang Mansion that are so tiresome that they are tired. It's very quiet, it's easy to do anything, and I slept in the room at night.

Early in the morning of the first day, Xiao Wei, the deputy Qianhu, personally came to the door to report the affairs of the Wu family, and all the family property and family members were sent to the government yamen for conviction.

Xiao Wei is in his twenties this year, with good looks, he seems to be a little fat, but he is very agile, his physical strength and martial arts are very good, he is meticulous in handling things, and he is safe.

His ancestral home was in the north, and at the age of seventeen, he took his father's position and became a hundred households. Because of the large-scale purge of Jinyiwei, he stood out this year and was promoted to deputy Qianhu, responsible for monitoring the entire Beiping Mansion.

It is said that Wan Xinyuan, who is in charge of several northern provinces, is in Daning Mansion, and he is also an official who was promoted last year, and he is in his twenties.

From Xiao Wei's words, it was learned that a large number of experienced Jinyi guards in the north were incorporated into local guards, and the number of them was reduced from 1,000 to less than 300.

It can be seen that the entire Jinyiwei can be described as a big injury? As the eyes and ears of the emperor and a special agency for detecting the intelligence of the world, it has been completely paralyzed and has lost its role.

Xu Hao didn't have the idea of reviving Jinyiwei at all, at least not now. He liked to talk to the honest Xiao Wei and invited him to a meal at noon.

In the afternoon, when it came to business, Xu Hao instructed Xiao Wei to write a notebook in his own handwriting, together with a list of the confiscated Wu family's property, and send it to the capital through Jinyiwei's secret channels.

Without Zhu Yuanzhang's consent, no one dared to use this silver, and it was all sealed in the official treasury.

At first, Xiao Wei thought that Xu Hao didn't understand the joints here, but who knew that he asked about the matter very seriously, took the trouble to ask for details, and wrote all his words in the fold, only then did he know that this young boss was not easy to fool, fortunately he did not take the opportunity to be greedy for money, otherwise most of the responsibility after the incident was on himself, and he could not frame others.

Xiao Wei thinks that Xu Hao is worth associating, and his words are much more cordial, and in the face of Xu Hao's questions, he knows everything and says everything.

In order to facilitate Zhu Di's actions in the future, Xu Hao used his crooked brains to abuse his power, and through Xiao Wei, almost all the Jinyi guards in Beiping Mansion were transferred to the periphery, and ordered them to actively investigate foreign intelligence, so that in the huge Yan Wang's fiefdom, the number of resident Jinyi guards has always remained at the scale of twenty or thirty people.

It's a pity to think about it, if Jinyiwei can be built into a real national security department, it can undoubtedly play a huge role.

The side effects of identity soon became apparent, and for many days, Zhu Di and his wife did not send anyone to invite Xu Hao into the house, but the Xu family ordered someone to send some good things from time to time.

Since then, in order to avoid suspicion, Zhu Di and Xu Hao have never met again, and even the previous means of contact have all been broken.

However, Zhu Di euphemistically expressed his attention to Xu Hao, and as soon as he returned to Beiping, the military order was issued, mobilizing the entire northern military and civilians to find Xu Song's whereabouts. Sure enough, with the attention of Yan Wangfu, good news came after ten days.

Xu Song didn't die? Xu Hao was shocked and hurriedly brought someone to pick him up, and in a hurry, he sent someone to inform King Yan's mansion and asked King Yan to arrange for Mu Ningxue to return to Beijing by official ship.

Along the way, there is no need to repeat the wind and food, sleeping non-stop, etc., and in just ten days, I rushed to the vicinity of my hometown Fengyang Mansion, and met Xu Song, who was immortal in a Huangzhuang in Shouzhou.

It turned out that after Xu Song was stabbed by a strong man that night, he jumped into the water in time with his youth, struggled to call for help when he went downstream, and was rescued by a passing grain ship.

As soon as he was rescued on the boat, the seriously injured Xu Song fell unconscious, and when the boatman saw that he was not old and dressed luxuriously, he knew that his identity was not trivial. Knowing that there were killers around the real world, the boatman felt that he couldn't report to the official immediately, and the food on the ship should be sent to Fengyang as soon as possible according to the date, so he continued to sail at night.

As a result, almost all the men sent by the Xu family went in the wrong direction, and a large number of people and horses went along the canal to Shandong Henan.

Xu Song was in a coma for more than ten days, and he had a high fever on the way, because he was wearing a jade pendant for the royal family, and the boat family entrusted him to a steward of the imperial village he knew.

Because it may involve the secrets of the royal family, the steward is even more afraid to publicize it? invited a doctor to treat the disease, and waited for him until Xu Song came to his senses, and then he knew his exact identity. It happened that at this time, the Yanwang Mansion arrived at Fengyang Mansion, and the steward hurriedly notified the local government, and the official did not dare to slack off, and immediately sent the document to Beiping Mansion.

Xu Hao suffered a lot of sins along the way, and the cold weather continued to rush in November, and the cold wind and dew can be imagined! The whole person has changed, his face is haggard, and his body is full of frostbite, but Xu Song will raise him for nothing.

However, after Xu Song went through this catastrophe, his temperament seemed to have changed slightly, and he looked much calmer than before, and when he saw Xu Hao, tears flowed down his eyes, and he choked up: "Third brother, you are here." ”

Xu Hao stepped forward with emotion, carefully looked at the injury on Xu Song's chest, and asked, "Can I take a boat?" It's the Chinese New Year coming soon, and I'm going to take my brother home. ”

The steward on one side assured: "The doctor said, there is no obstacle to taking a sedan chair by boat." ”

"Hmm." Xu Hao breathed a sigh of relief, raised his hand and patted Xu Song's head, and smiled at him.

Turning around, he hugged his fists and said: "The life-saving grace of your few people, the Xu family should keep it in mind!" Because I was in a hurry when I came, I only carried 3,000 pieces of treasure money with me, and you benefactors should not dislike it, but must accept it. Later, my Xu family will make up for the big gift, and as for the kind-hearted boat family and other benefactors, the Xu family should be thanked. ”

The steward and the people of the royal family are very happy, three thousand treasure banknotes are equivalent to more than a thousand taels of silver, which is undoubtedly a huge amount of money for ordinary people, and they all secretly praise the Xu family, the Duke of Wei, who is not only polite but also really generous.

Xu Song, who was half-lying on the kang, smiled with satisfaction, looked at the third brother who had not seen him for many days, and said in his heart that the third brother came thousands of miles away for himself, and generously took out so much money, in order to thank his life-saving benefactor, this brotherly affection did not say, and he must respect his brother in the future.

Xu Hao was in a hurry to return to Beijing before Layue, and then he said a few polite words, but he didn't even eat, so he ordered someone to carry Xu Song to the sedan chair, bid farewell to the stewards and others, and went in the dust.

Beijing, Xu's house.

At this time, everyone in the mansion was jubilant, the old lady and the Liu family were even more ecstatic, and the whole family was waiting for Xu Hao to return home safely with his younger brother.

After this incident, because Xiao has always accompanied Liu for many days and comforted her, the relationship between Liu and the second sister-in-law has increased a lot.

However, Xu Hao became the envoy of Jinyi Wei, which invisibly cast a shadow on the Xu family, and many relatives and friends in the past began to alienate the Xu family intentionally or unintentionally.

Under the influence, the family of the person who originally intended to be engaged to Xu Cuitao sent a matchmaker to inform him of the cancellation of the marriage, and Xu Qinglian's happy event was also shelved by the Yan Wangfu indefinitely, and even Xiao Yuying, the cousin of the Xiao family, lost the qualification to enter the Qin Wangfu.

King Qin was originally a guilty body, and he was trembling and trembling, how could he dare to recruit a woman who had a relationship with Jinyiwei? No matter how the prince Zhu Shangbing begged, it was useless.

With regret, Zhu Shangbing, like the princes of the palace, bid farewell to the prosperous capital one after another and reluctantly returned to the fiefdom.

Among them, Zhu Gaochi and his wife were both canonized as the princess of the world as they wished, and they were satisfied with the unwilling Zhu Gaochu, together with the two future brothers-in-law, took the four Ming warships carrying Mu Ningxue and returned to Yanjing north through the coastal road of the Yangtze River.

Xu Yaozu took the children of the Xu family back first, Xu Ji was anxious to meet his wife as soon as he arrived home, and Xu Wen did not know where to go, and it was said that he was still halfway.

Zhu Qiaoqiao, who knew that her husband was a person, was suddenly furious, and she didn't have to do anything to know that Xu Wen took the opportunity to run to find flowers and ask willows, but she had no choice but to endure her anger and wait, full of thoughts about settling accounts after the autumn.

The eldest wife Wang was also very angry, and couldn't help complaining about her husband, calling the eldest daughter-in-law to come over to comfort her, and in front of Zhu Qiaoqiao, she sent someone to pick up her son.

That night, the Xu family held a feast, and the old lady saw that there were a lot of people in the family during the Chinese New Year this year, and her heart was happy, and her interest was high, so she took the whole family and her daughters to drink and have fun in the garden that had just been completed.

Mujia Annex.

Mrs. Mu hugged her baby daughter, who had just come home, and was distressed and asked for warmth.

Mu Ningxue took her sister Qingshuang's little hand and said with a smile: "How much did I tell you, I didn't suffer a little bit when I went out this time, and he took care of him along the way, which was very comfortable." ”

When Mrs. Mu heard that person mentioned, she sighed lightly: "There is a chance that your affair with him will come to an end." ”

"What? Just because he made a brocade guard? Mu Ningxue frowned and asked.

Mrs. Mu let go of her daughter and said, "Originally, your eldest brother didn't agree, so he put down his words for this reason." However, there is a mother and your second brother and sister-in-law on your side, and you are not afraid that he will not give in to the opinions of the whole family. But now Brother Hao is a brocade guard with a bad reputation, for the reputation of our Mu family, your second brother and sister-in-law are inclined to your eldest brother, and my mother is alone, I'm afraid I can't help you. ”

Mu Ningxue frowned and glanced at her sister, and saw Qingshuang secretly pouting, and immediately knew in her heart, it seemed that even her mother did not agree to this matter.

Mu Ningxue is not in a hurry about this, there is still more than a year left to go, and she believes that he will definitely have a way.
