Rebirth: From being expelled from the imperial court to becoming a high-ranking official

Finally I can go home.

After packing up all their luggage, Qin Yunhe and others set out on their return journey.

Of course, the return trip did not have to follow the exact route. After the coachman confirmed the route with Qin Yunhe, he drove the carriage on its way.

The carriage was moving, and Qin Yunhe looked at the official road outside the carriage and the willow trees on the side of the road.

The official road here is very well maintained and the willows along the road are intact.

He was always thinking about the dilapidated official roads and post stations he saw when he came here, and he kept paying attention to the conditions of the official roads and post stations on his way to inspect.

Perhaps it was because the inspector was taking the routes he usually took, and as far as he was concerned, the official roads and post stations in Henan Province were in relatively good condition.

On the way back, Qin Yunhe specifically asked the driver to choose some routes that were not often taken.

Although there were occasional situations where official roads and post stations were not repaired in a timely manner and personnel, horses, etc. were not fully equipped, they were only slightly dilapidated and were not abandoned.

Of course, what he saw was not everything. In places he could not see, there might be more abandoned but still existing post stations.

During these years of peace and prosperity, the imperial court continued to plan and build more reasonable official road routes and post stations along the way. It was inevitable that some official roads that were not so easy to travel or not so convenient were gradually abandoned by traveling officials, couriers, and soldiers.

Once the government gives up, the roads along the way will probably gradually become neglected in terms of maintenance.

just,

The personnel and horses are not fully matched, so are the corresponding personnel, money, horses and livestock expenses also complete?

If the official road is not repaired in time, are the corresponding repair fees still being paid on time?

If it was not distributed, where did the money go?

If it was distributed, where did the money go?

On the way back, passing the official road and post station of Gaoyi County again, Qin Yunhe stopped again to learn about the situation in detail and kept the matter in mind.

The group finally returned to the capital in March.

Qin Yunhe did not return home first, but went back to the Censorate to report.

When Fu Jiao saw him coming in exhausted, he knew that he came directly to the Censorate. This Qin Yunhe really always makes people speechless.

Qin Yunhe was puzzled when he saw Fu Jiao's complicated expression.

"Sir, is there anything...wrong with the dispatch?"

He was also nervous, after all, he didn't have much experience as an inspector.

"Nothing wrong," Fu Jiao put away the errand book, "Master Qin, you have worked hard on the inspection. The inspection will take a few more days. I will allow you to rest for three days and go back to reunite with your family first."

I was afraid that he didn't understand the situation, so I asked, "Is there a separate book for all the expenses on the way?"

"Yes." Qin Yunhe presented it.

"It will take a few days to write off the account. Someone will help you handle it when the time comes."

"Yes, thank you for your reminder, Master Fu. In addition," Qin Yunhe said cautiously, "On the way to the inspection, I took a detour to avoid Guping County where my brother was serving. On the way back, I had some questions about the official road in Gaoyi County, so I stopped briefly."

Fu Jiao's forehead twitched. There was no need to explain everything, it was just being cautious.

"It's okay, you can go back and reunite with your family first."

After completing the task, Qin Yunhe felt relieved and said goodbye to go home.

He Sheng had already gone home to report the news. As soon as Qin Yunhe came out, he saw Zhuzi driving his own carriage to pick him up.

Finally seeing his family, Qin Yunhe took a few quick steps and smiled, "Zhu Zi, you're here."

After not seeing each other for a year, Zhuzi has not changed much, but Qin Yunhe has changed a lot. Zhuzi almost didn't recognize him at first sight.

"Sir..." Zhuzi bowed, feeling mixed emotions: "You're back."

In fact, Qin Yunhe had just lost a lot of weight, with the bones on his face clearly visible and a little darker. In addition, Qin Yunhe had been through a lot, which made him look more vicissitudes of life.

Qin Yunhe patted the pillar and said, "I'm back. Let's go home."

The two of them returned home in a carriage. Yu Ru and Qin's mother had been waiting at the door for a long time. When they saw the carriage approaching from a distance, they couldn't wait to come forward to greet it.

Qin Yunhe had already seen his wife and mother, so he lifted the curtain, jumped out of the car, and walked a few steps towards them.

"Mom, Yuru, why aren't you waiting at home?"

Qin Yunhe hadn't seen his mother for more than a year. He wanted to kneel down and pay his respects, but his mother quickly stopped him.

If he hadn't jumped off his own carriage, Yuru and Qin's mother would have almost failed to recognize Qin Yunhe. This time, Qin Yunhe had changed quite a lot, and Qin's mother and Yuru felt very distressed.

"How come you've become so thin again? Come home with mom. I asked the kitchen to heat up some rice and make some chicken soup."

Ruyi was also waiting for Qin Yunhe with Yuru and Qin's mother, and was also shocked when she saw her father's appearance.

"Dad, you're back."

"Hey, you're back." Qin Yunhe looked at his daughter who had grown taller, and said with deep emotion: "Let's go home first."

Mother Qin took Qin Yunhe home, and Yuru followed beside Qin Yunhe, obviously feeling distressed.

Qin Yunhe was very happy to finally see his wife and daughter.

The whole family squeezed into the house. As soon as they entered the house, Qin's mother asked the servants to go to the kitchen to serve the hot rice, and then went to see how the chicken soup was.

Mother Qin was busy, and Qin Yunhe pulled Yuru aside to talk: "Is everything okay at home?"

Seeing Qin Yunhe's dusty appearance, Yuru's eyes were a little hot, but she was too embarrassed to cry: "Everything is fine at home, but you... are suffering. Go to the bedroom and change out of your official uniform. I'll get you some water to wash your face first."

Qin Yunhe knew that his wife felt sorry for him but was too embarrassed to cry, so he hugged her and patted her: "I'm doing well outside, and I have enough food and supplies."

"Then why is he so thin? Hesheng is just a boy, he probably doesn't know how to take care of others."

Qin's mother is no longer as averse to seeing her son and daughter-in-law being affectionate in public as she used to be. Besides, the two of them have become much more restrained now, so when she came back from the kitchen and saw the two of them chatting together, she just pretended not to see anything.

Qin Yunhe and Yuru returned to the bedroom and changed into casual clothes.

The servants at home had already served the meal. When Qin's mother saw her son coming out, she said, "Come on, eat something first. I didn't know you got home today, and the chicken soup is not ready yet."

Although he had been traveling for most of the day, Qin Yunhe was not very hungry at the moment.

He just thought that his mother had been waiting for him at home for a year, and he wanted to see him eat a hot meal at home, so he sat down and started eating without saying anything.

When he had almost finished eating, the family talked to each other about their recent situation.

When Qin Yunhe heard that Qin Ci had chosen Li Chang as his teacher, he was both pleased and grateful.

I am glad that my son met a good teacher, and I am grateful that Li Chang was so busy but still accepted my son, who was really a cause for concern.

Especially when he learned why Li Chang accepted Qin Ci and how he taught him with all his heart, he was even more moved.

Even teaching a sensible child like Yuger is quite difficult, let alone Qin Ci who is so naughty?

If I were to teach him myself, I might even faint from anger, but I still might not be able to teach him well.

How lucky I am to meet Zigao.
