In the Qin mansion, Qin Zhao impolitely asked Du Wenshu: "Du Hanlin, I want to know why Yunqing was promoted two levels in a row?" There are some questions in it.
Du Shuan said helplessly: "general Qin, it's not the prince who let Yun Qing go up two levels. It's Yu Xiang's compromise. You should know Yu Xiang's weight in the court. Yu Xiang said that Yunqing's military achievements are far higher than his current position. If you want to be promoted, Yunqing should be fair. How can others refute him? " The most important thing is that the prime minister has reason. The prince can't refute it, but he has to praise it for being fair and just.
After hearing this, Qin Zhao had a bad premonition: "well, how can Yu Xiang interfere in Yunqing's affairs?"
Du Wenshu also told Qin Zhao, "Yu family wants to get in the military power, but they can't win over general Qin at home, so they put their ideas on Yun Qing. The prince worried that Yunqing would throw himself at home, so he sent me to appease him. Don't worry, general Qin. The prince thinks highly of you. " With that, he took out two letters from his arms and handed them to Qin Zhao, saying: "one is the prince's personal letter, the other is the empress's letter to the general."
Qin Zhao received the letter, first read the prince's letter, and then read Qin Yue's letter. The prince wrote some soothing words in the letter; Qin Yue's letter says that she is pregnant and pregnant with the prince's child.
Knowing that Qin Yue is pregnant, Qin Zhao looks happy. If his sister gave birth to a son, he would have a firm foothold in the east palace.
Du Wenshu looked at Qin Zhao's face and said, "general, your Highness the prince knows that it's difficult for you to do this time. But the prince also said that when you make military contributions again, you will be promoted and Yunqing will be under you. " The problem is that if Qin Zhao wants to be promoted, he must first make military contributions, otherwise Yu Xiangke will have something to say.
Qin Zhao said: "please rest assured that I will live up to the expectations of the prince." In the war after the Spring Festival, he must make military contributions.
Du Wenshu felt that Qin Zhao was more obedient than Yun Qing, and he also wanted to appease him, not like Yun Qing, and he didn't take the prince's coattachment seriously. Thinking of this, Du said: "general Qin, I will go back to Beijing tomorrow. In the future, please pay more attention to cloud engine. " There must be someone monitoring the cloud engine on his side, but if Qin Zhao monitors the cloud engine again, it will be double-layer insurance.
Qin Zhao thought for a moment and said, "I have two understandings about Yunqing. He is rebellious, arrogant and domineering. He doesn't want to submit to anyone. But his wife Han is not a simple, this just married over half a year, let cloud engine to her obedience. Mr. Du, the Korean Duke is a member of Yu's family. I think if yu's family wants to come back to Yunqing, it must start with Han. " This means that we should not only monitor Yunqing, but also Han Yuxi.
Du Jianming naturally knew that Han Jianming had taken refuge in his family, but now he was keeping filial piety at home, but he didn't expect that he was restless. But Qin Zhao's words, he also can't believe completely, at most half believe, immediately nodded and said: "this matter is very important, I will go back to tell the prince his highness." This matter back to the post station, let people make a good inquiry, to see whether Qin Zhao's words are true.
After that, it's time to drink. Qin Zhao clapped his hand. Six women in big red came in from the outside and danced with the melodious music.
Du yuan frowned. Even if he didn't like Yunqing's attitude, Yunqing at least did his duty in military affairs and didn't slack off at all. On the other hand, Qin Zhao, the first general, is singing and dancing here, enjoying good food and wine.
The short attendant beside Du Wenshu said with a smile, "general Qin, my lower officer, you can see that these two beauties are not the same as the women in the Central Plains?" These six women are tall, and their eyes are deep green, so they are not Central Plains women.
Qin Zhao said with a smile: "these are women from the western regions."
Du Wenshu is not interested in seeing the beauty, but he can't leave either. Otherwise, his relationship with Qin Zhao will be stiff, and it won't end well at that time.
With lunch, Du document with a party back to the post station. Back at the post station, Du's confidants sent out to inquire about the news also came back.
Most of the things Du document actually already know, such as Yuxi in Yucheng opened a restaurant and restaurant, and founded Qingfeng hall thing: "in addition to these there?" What do you think of the establishment of Qingfeng hall? On the big side, ambition is not small. On the small side, it's just a woman's kindness. However, it is a bit exaggerated to think that Han is a powerful tool in this matter.
His confidant said: "last year, because of the Qingfeng hall, Han went to the Yamen and handed a paper to the fourth master of the Xu family." Then the cause and effect of this matter with Du document said, also will Yuxi counterattack also said.
After listening to the documents, Du Fu showed his dignity and said, "are the things spread out true?" He has seen a lot of this way of spreading rumors in Beijing, which is a trick that some women like to play. Moreover, before he came here, he inquired about some things of Han family. How to say, he was not brilliant, but he was not mediocre, and he was not a submissive person, otherwise he would not have been adopted to Dafang. Therefore, Du Wenshu thinks that Han Yuxi is a little smart, but not very smart. As for the ability to make Yunqing obedient to her, the biggest capital for this woman to conquer a man is not intelligence, but appearance. Obviously, Han has this capital. Of course, Du documents do not despise Han for this, you know, a woman's pillow side wind is also very strong.
The confidant nodded and said, "it's all true. There's no empty word."
Du yuan looks very ugly when he hears this. Every day he cried bitterness, every day he cried poverty. The soldiers didn't even have a new cotton padded coat for the winter, but Qin Zhao and the Xu family lived a life of luxury. At this moment, Du's impression of Qin Zhao was extremely bad.
The confidant said after a pause: "I also heard that an assassin tried to kill Han in the name of honoring the princess yesterday, but he was seen through by the people around him and failed."
After hearing this, Du Wenyi felt a little upset and asked, "is this true?" For Jingwang let Yuchen as a lobbyist, Du document is not very clear. But at this time, he was not stupid. He knew it must be the prince or king.
The confidant nodded and said, "the news is released by Yunfu. It should be true. I also heard that the assassin had a sign of King's residence. Many people say that it was the Xu family who did it to retaliate against Mrs. Yun. "
As the master and servant were talking, he heard someone calling out: "Mr. Du, the Qin government has sent something here. Mr. Du, come and have a look." The so-called things are actually people. They are the beauties I saw just now, the beauties of the western regions.
The short man did not take his eyes away from these exotic beauties at the banquet just now. This time I saw Qin Zhao and sent people here. I was extremely satisfied with Qin Zhao's knowledge and interest. Everyone was very satisfied except Du.
Although Du clerical heart disdain, but still casually pointed to a woman. His finger shows that this woman is what he likes. People who walk in the officialdom can't go far if they are extremely noble. Du document can climb to the position of five grades of Hanlin Shidu in less than 30 years, and is regarded by the prince, so he is not a pedantic person.
The next day, Du Wenshu went to the camp of Dingbei army to find Yunqing, and wanted to know more about the preparations for the war in the early spring. Unfortunately, cloud engine did not see him, is still Huo Changqing out to accompany him. However, for his various problems, Huo Changqing also explained in detail.
When he came back to the post station in the evening, his entourage came and said, "my Lord, madam Yun knows that we are going to return to Beijing tomorrow, so she sent some boxes of things here."
Du said, "what did you send?" Cloud engine so drag, this Han's in human relations is not bad.
The entourage said, "they are all products of little value. In addition, there are two boxes, sealed, said to be a gift to the princess. People who carry things say that the box is very heavy. It may contain jade What we sent to Princess Jing was jade, and what we sent to them were some dried fruits and other specialties. The gap is really not so big. It's only because it's for the princess, and no one dares not to give it away.
Du said: "since it's here, put it away!"
After staying in Yucheng for three days, they set out to go back. Some of the people who followed Du Wenshu complained, but they had to compromise in the face of Du Wenshu's tough attitude.
Xu Wu and Yu Xi said, "madam, the Qin government didn't send anything to Du Hanlin and others. Madam, it's a bit strange. In the past, people from the capital would send a lot of things to the Qin government, but this time it's not normal? "
Yuxi said with a smile: "last year's incident was so noisy that the Qin family wanted to avoid suspicion." Even if you want to give gifts, you will only give them in private.
After hearing this, corydalis said, "madam, the Qin family didn't send things to those people. Instead, we sent several boxes of things." Although it's worthless, others don't know! Others thought they gave a big gift.
After hearing this, Yuxi jokingly said, "those things don't add up to 100 Liang, which is not enough for people to bring me jade? Even if people outside know, it doesn't matter. If you say whatever they say, no one can stop them Most of the jade was bought by Yuxi. Jade is not worth money here, even the best jade is not too expensive.
Corydalis said with a smile, "I'm stingy! You might as well not give them away! " Specialty is specialty, but it's not worth money!
Yuxi said with a smile: "it's just to show the meaning, and these things can be eaten on the road. It's very practical." Cloud engine didn't send a word, did she still take out her own money to send to Yi Cheng. If you give money, you will not get good. On the contrary, you will be told by Yunqing. Of course, the main reason is that Yuxi thinks that they will not take refuge with the prince anyway. They are not in the same group, so there is no need to please them. Otherwise, she would have taken out her private house.
