Xiaoyao Xiaojunhou

Chapter 396 396. Father’s destiny
Squeak!

The door opened and the maid Xiaocui came in with an envelope in her hand.

"Xiaocui, is there anything you want to tell the eldest lady?" Dongmei asked.

"Miss, Sister Chunxue, Sister Dongmei, uncle...my uncle has sent a letter..."

"Ok?"

Dong Shuyu, who was in a daze facing the table full of delicacies, seemed to be resurrected in an instant. He immediately stood up and looked at the maid Xiaocui, and his eyes finally fell on the envelope in her hand.

"A letter from my uncle? Give it to me!"

Dong Shuyu stretched out his hand to take it. A trace of blush gradually returned to his originally pale face, and his dull eyes gradually regained a trace of brightness.

The maid Xiaocui hurriedly delivered the envelope.

Dong Shuyu took it with both hands and quickly glanced at the envelope.

I saw a few big words written on the envelope: "Written by Shuyu personally."

The handwriting of this word is very graceful, as if it was written by a woman, but there is also a kind of grandeur hidden in the outline of the strokes... This is Zhu Xiuyuan's handwriting.

Dong Shuyu knew that his sister Zhen'er taught Zhu Xiuyuan how to write calligraphy.

She hurriedly tore open the envelope and took out a page of letter paper.

She held the letter in both hands, walked slowly, and read it carefully, fascinated.

On one side, Chun Xue and Dong Mei both breathed a sigh of relief and waved Xiao Cui to retreat.

My uncle's letter came at the right time, it is simply a special medicine for emergency...

When he was young, Dong Shuyu read this letter.

Chunxia and Dongmei looked carefully and saw that their young ladies were indeed different.

Her face was no longer pale, but blushed, a little excited and a little shy, and her eyes were shining like abysses, and she had completely returned to the past!
It's "alive"!

"Miss, what good news did my uncle say?"

Chunxia and Dongmei came over with smiles on their faces.

"Did you know that Xiu Yuan has been traveling around the capital to secure the position of Jiangning County magistrate for my father? Soon, the transfer documents will be issued by the imperial court, and then my father will be able to go to Beijing and be considered a capital official!"

Dong Shuyu was so excited that he finally opened his mouth.

"Magistrate of Jing County, congratulations miss, congratulations master!"

Chunxue and Dongmei were also very happy when they heard this.

"Miss, when the master goes to the capital, the lady will be able to follow him, and then move the tea house to the capital..."

The longing for spring and summer begins.

"No, I'm not going to the capital!"

Dong Shuyu's face remained flushed, but she shook her head and said such a sentence.

"Ah? Hasn't Miss always wanted to go to the capital..."

"You girl, your skin is itchy, aren't you? How long have I been wanting to go to the capital?"

……

The three masters and servants quarreled for a while, laughing and joking. Finally, Dong Shuyu felt hungry, sat down again, and ate two bowls of rice!
……

Jiangzhou government office.

At the same time, Dong Cheng also received a letter from Zhu Xiuyuan.

After reading the letter, Dong Cheng was suddenly as excited as a young man. He walked around in the check-in room, talking to himself, and his face turned red with excitement.

It happened that Jiang Governor Li Linzhou came in to discuss something with Dong Cheng. When he saw Dong Cheng's scene, he was shocked and asked what happened?
Dong Cheng showed the letter to Li Linzhou.

After Li Linzhou saw it, he immediately raised his hands and said: "Congratulations to the governor! From being a local governor to being transferred to the county magistrate of the capital, it can be said that you have reached the sky in one step! I wish you the best to be promoted step by step, and to be appointed to the court as soon as possible, and to be granted the title of marquis and minister!"

"Haha, Lin Zhou, I'm serious, I'm serious. I can go to Beijing and be the county magistrate for once in this life. I only hope that it will be enough, and I will be granted the title of Marquis and Prime Minister. I don't dare to think about it, I don't dare to think about it!"

Dong Cheng seemed to be ten years younger, his face was radiant, and the smile on his lips never faded...

Dong Cheng's transfer to the county magistrate of Jiangning County is a foregone conclusion and cannot be changed. The transfer documents from the imperial court will be delivered within three or four days at the latest.

At that time, Dong Cheng can pack up his burden and go to Beijing to be an official!
Of course, the work at hand of Jiangzhou Governor still needs to be "handed over".The person who succeeded Dong Cheng as the governor of Jiangzhou is the current governor of Jiangzhou, Li Linzhou.

……

Dong Cheng couldn't wait and started the transfer of power immediately, taking Li Linzhou with him to get familiar with everything.

……

When Dong Cheng came home from work in the evening, he saw people coming and going in the entire mansion, with servants and maids running back and forth, and it was a busy scene.

Compared with the previous few days, the entire mansion seemed to have come alive.

dinner time.

Although there were only Dong Cheng and Dong Shuyu in the back hall, the silence and desolate state this morning was gone forever.

"Yu'er, this time my father is going to Beijing, you should also go with him. You can move the whole tea house to the capital..."

Dong Cheng made arrangements while eating.

"No, daddy, my daughter is not going to the capital."

Dong Shuyu blushed slightly, and put down the bowl and chopsticks.

"Not going? How can it be done!"

Dong Cheng also put down his bowl and chopsticks, frowning.

"My father, Zhen'er, and my virtuous son-in-law will all be in the capital from now on. You are the only one left in Jiangzhou. How can we rest assured!"

"But Daddy..."

"No but, when my father goes to Beijing in a few days, you will come with him! My father would rather give up the tea house property than take you to the capital!"

"Daddy..."

"Hey, Yu'er, these days... Zhen'er is far away in the capital. I feel really worried about my father, and I really miss you. When we all go to the capital, and you stay alone in Jiangzhou, do you have to let me go? Do you worry about your father every day and miss him every day?”

"Yu'er, you have always been obedient and aware of the general situation since you were a child. Why this time...do you want to be like Zhen'er, making your father worry all the time?"

"Dad, my daughter knows she was wrong. Please don't worry, dad. When dad goes to Beijing, my daughter will go with him!"

Dong Shuyu stood up, bowed, and whispered.

But no one knew that her face as she bowed down was already flushed with excitement, and the corners of her mouth were slightly raised...

"Hey, that's right!"

Dong Cheng naturally felt relieved.

Then, the two father and daughter discussed for another hour, making arrangements for their trip to Beijing in a few days.

……

Beijing.

Two full days have passed since the chaos in Beijing that day.

These two days were really bloody.

Detectives from the Prison Department were dispatched all over the city, arresting people day and night...

News soon came that the Prison Department had arrested more than [-] people.

The reason why so many more people were arrested was because of the interrogation of more than 1000 people.

Almost all of them were punished...

In addition to some of the evidence rescued from the hands of the man in black, the prison secretary also used this to discover many buried old cases or nest cases...

The detectives from the Prison Department arrested people "arbitrarily", causing people in the capital to panic. They were afraid that the next person to be arrested would be themselves!

For a while, the wind was jittery.

But if some people are sad, others will naturally be happy.

In this incident, the worried people were naturally the officials who were arrested, or the officials who were frightened.

And those who are happy and happy are the people all over the city!
