Chapter 896

After the new rain in Jiangcheng, Xinghua is deep in Moling Pass. 15 ("7*)

But at this moment in Moling, there are no apricot flowers everywhere, but the residual red of firecrackers is everywhere.

There are quite a few apricot trees, with unripe apricots hanging heavily all over the branches.

After Xia Xun arrived in Moling Town, he immediately rushed to Tumen Baoyin's residence. When he arrived, he saw the village head Yang Lijie leading several village servants to play awe-inspiring at Tumen Baoyin's house.

Time has passed, but there is one less outstanding girl waiting for election, Yang Lijie can't make a job, how can he give up, he just said that Tumen Baoyin hid his daughter, and brought a few village servants to Tumen Baoyin's house Searching everywhere, using both soft and hard methods, I must find this girl out.

The country servants are all local hooligans. During the search, they took the opportunity to grab a lot of valuables and stuffed their pockets full, and they were still putting on airs.As soon as Xia Xun arrived, Yang Lijie, who was showing off his might, was stunned.Back then, Xia Xun made a big disturbance in the Yang family's ancestral hall and confronted the elders of the Yang clan time and time again. At that time, Yang Lijie was an adult, and everyone noticed it, so he was very impressed with Xia Xun.

It's just that at that time Yang Lijie was not very popular among the younger generation of the clan, far less popular than Yang Chong and Yang Rong. Later, these people were in great trouble, but he was safe and sound.But since then, Yang Lijie has lingering fears about Xia Xun's methods, so although more than ten years have passed, Xia Xun's business has changed, but he can still recognize it.

"This person... is he? It should be him, so cool, just appeared in his old house again..."

Yang Lijie was in doubt, not to mention that Xia Xun's methods of dealing with the Yang family back then frightened him, just saying that Xia Xun is now the Duke of Fuguo, and his status is so high that it is beyond reach, it is enough to frighten him.The country servants under him are all people with extremely sharp eyes and ears. Once they saw Li Chang's character, they knew that they had encountered a difficult person, and they stopped their hands in embarrassment, and stood there watching the situation.

Xia Xun frowned when he saw the situation in the courtyard, and hurriedly said to Tumen Baoyin: "Madam Chu, what's going on?"

Tumen Baoyin couldn't help being overjoyed when he saw Xia Xun, and hurried forward to meet him, saying: "Ah! Grandpa, you are here, and Mu Wen has found you!"

Tumen Baoyin has regarded this place as her own home, and she also regards Sakura as her own daughter. She has completely assumed the role, and it is very comfortable to evoke Xiaoying's current alias. "

When Yang Lijie heard the word "Guo Gong", he knew that he had not misunderstood the person, so he knelt down with a "boom", and knocked his head on the green brick floor with a "dong dong" sound: "The little man has seen the Guogong, my little one!" People have seen the Duke!"

"What's the matter, why is it like copying the house?"

Xia Xun ignored Yang Lijie at all and only asked Tumen Baoyin.

Seeing that Xia Xun ignored him, Yang Lijie knelt there and didn't dare to get up. He just took the time to gesture to a few of his subordinates who were in a daze, and hurriedly told them to kneel with his eyes. "Pu Tong" knelt on the ground, "Dang, dang, dang, dang..." A gold-plated pickaxe bottle fell out of the arms of a village servant, bouncing on the ground and rolling far away.

Tumen Baoyin hurriedly told Xia Xun the reasons and consequences of his arrival, and Xia Xun suddenly understood why so many people got married recently.Xia Xun naturally knew about the draft girl, but he didn't know that it had such a big impact on the people.This kind of turmoil among the people, although separated by a wall, how could it get into the ears of the high and powerful.

Xia Xun has Qianlong in hand, but Qianlong is by no means a trickster with thousands of hands and eyes.No matter how huge the secret spy organization is, its Jing power is also limited, and it can only collect information within the pre-planned monitoring range. If you have to pay attention to matters such as the selection of women in the palace, then there will be six and three legal departments every day, covering all major yamen in the capital. There are so many important matters related to the national economy and the people's livelihood. Doesn't he have to ask about everything?

A workaholic emperor like Zhu Di has to review more than 1000 memorials a day, which are still screened by the cabinet. If Xia Xun does this, then he is really busier than the emperor. Besides, his hidden dragon is shady, and he needs to deliberately control it. The scale cannot be expanded infinitely, so limited power must be used wisely:

What happened to the civil war in the Timurid Empire in the Western Regions?When necessary, he had to rein in the rope tied around Harry Sultan's neck. (")

What's going on in Tatar's Arutai, what's going on with Jinyiwei's operation to help Wansongling seize power in Wala, how far has Japan's power struggle progressed, and what speeches and actions did the emperor make on his way to the north? , this is the focus of his attention.How could he waste Qianlong's energy on the draft.

Could it be that after a few years, a certain showgirl might become a favored concubine or even a queen, and now he has to recruit and train all the [-] showgirls selected?What's more, in the early Ming Dynasty, there was no strict control over the palace's political affairs. Unless it was a woman like Ma Niangniang and Empress Xu who shared weal and woe with the emperor, other women would dare to talk too much about government affairs.In the political environment in the early Ming Dynasty, the collusion between powerful officials and the harem could only be the way to death.This is why Ji Gang chose Chen Ying's nephew as a showgirl, but he still acted unscrupulously.So Xia Xun had no idea that things had developed to such a point.

After hearing about Empress Tugu, from the last interview, the emperor valued her very much, and since Sakura was involved, this matter had to be taken care of no matter what.Fortunately, it's just a draft girl, and there will be no danger to her life, nor will she lose her innocence. Xia Xun comforted Tumen Baoyin, and then turned to Yang Lijie and said, "Get out! There must be no more people in this family. Any nuisance, do you understand?"

"Yes Yes Yes!"

Yang Lijie didn't dare to argue, he quickly kowtowed, got up and ran.Fei Hewei stretched out his hand to stop him from behind, and shouted: "All the things that are taken by hand, the whole **** is piled up, and if any hands and feet are not clean, I will chop off his hands and feet!"

A group of rascals were frightened, and hurriedly took out all the things they walked along, and after a while, they put them all over the floor, as if they had set up a grocery stall.

Shooing away this group of people, Xia Xun explained to Tumen Baoyin why he came here because of the news, and said: "Madam, don't worry, I'll go and find out about Sakura's whereabouts. It doesn't matter if she has been selected, we will Just bring her back!"

Tumen Baoyin naturally knew Xia Xun's power, and since he promised, he was relieved, because the matter was urgent and Xia Xun was leaving, Tumen Baoyin did not keep him, and sent him out of the door with gratitude, Xia Xun Xun rode his horse and went straight to the capital.

On the other side, Yang Lijie headed straight to the county government in a frenzied manner. With the signboard of Fu Guogong, he was not afraid that the county magistrate would force him to ask for people again. The number of people is not enough?Spread it out in other towns.Thinking about it this way, there is a sense of blessing in disguise.

Tangkou Town, home of Matchmaker Wang.

Several people were chattering around Wang Matchmaker.

One of them said: "Mrs. Wang, as you know, my family owns an oil workshop, and my family background is not bad. Now it's urgent, and I don't want to find a good husband for my daughter. As long as my family background is better and I am more honest, Live a good life, as long as you are of the same age!"

The other person dressed up as Mr. Sishu, and said with a smile on his face: "Mother Wang, my daughter-in-law is well educated and has a beautiful face. You have seen it before. I will trouble you about this matter. It is best if you are a scholar. It doesn't matter if you don't have fame yet, as long as you are a young scholar..."

"Alright, alright!"

Matchmaker Wang tilted Erlang's tui, raised her handkerchief, and said, "You guys, don't pick and choose. You came to me at this hour. What do you want to be happy with? Let me tell you. , now as long as you can get married in time, then Amitabha, how can you be so particular? Now, a man who is 24 or [-] is begging for a widow who is [-] or [-], that is a dowry for others. A woman who is [-] or [-] Son, marrying a man in his [-]s or [-]s means that the ancestral grave is smoking."

She curled her lips and said, "You still want to pick and choose? In Jiangning Town, there was a rich family who couldn't find a suitable son-in-law in a hurry. It happened that their family hired a tin worker to make tweezers at home. He has men's skills and is not very old, so he was pulled up in the middle of the night, changed into the groom's clothes, and married his daughter in a hurry. What's the matter?"

"Yes, yes, Mama Wang, take care..."

"Hmph, do you still want to choose? Picking a cucumber as a walking stick is better than being selected into the palace, isn't it? Nowadays, it doesn't matter whether you are big or small, old or young, good or evil, rich or poor, high or low, but you can marry If you can get out, that would be the luckiest of misfortunes, why don't you ask my wife Wang for help, you follow the example of those big families and send servants everywhere to rob the bridegroom!"

"Yes, yes, mother-in-law Wang, don't worry!"

The member of the oil shop took out a heavy string of money from his sleeve and stuffed it into the hand of Mrs. Wang: "Then please trouble Mrs. Wang, first tell my daughter-in-law about a marriage."

The old lady Wang weighed the money in her hand, and she could not help showing a satisfied smile, then raised her handkerchief again, and said, "Okay, wait for me to believe you. What I said just now is so ugly, I want you to know what's going on now." Difficulty, my wife Wang said that matchmakers have always been good people, and I hope your daughters will look back on me, right? There is really no suitable man around here. I will look far away, and I will give you a letter in two days. !"

Hearing this, the man from the oil shop hurriedly said: "No, no, it won't happen in two days, I really can't afford it. At three quarters in the afternoon, listen to the news at three quarters in the afternoon, and we will get married tonight!"

The matchmaker let out an "ah" and lost her voice: "It's so urgent... Where can you ask the old lady to find you a good son-in-law?"

Mr. Sishu hurriedly said: "One day! My family can wait for one day! Mama Wang, how much you worry about it!" He said and passed the preserved meat in his hand.

The man who opened the oil shop quickly changed his words: "Okay, okay, one day at a time, Granny Wang, first find a mole for my daughter-in-law."

At this moment, Xiao Ying rode lightly and rushed to the outside of Tangkou Town. At the town entrance, two men in green clothes and hats were looking around, and they saw her at a glance.Xiao Ying reined in her horse, smiled politely at them, and asked, "Excuse me, may I ask you to go to Cigrao Mountain, but is this the way?"

p: There are only three days left at the end of the month, ask for a monthly ticket and a recommended ticket!
