Feudal scholar-bureaucrats reborn: marrying a husband and marrying a virtuous

On the second day of November, Tongzhou Ferry, which is usually bustling with people, became a little more solemn. On the wide river, the ferry boats coming and going disappeared at this time, and only three magnificent tall ships were docked on the shore.

Two of them are warships of the Jingshiying. They are pitch black and divided into upper, middle and lower layers. Each layer has a protective female wall to defend against flying arrows and arrow stones. There are arrow holes on the female wall for shooting bows. crossbow.

The banners and flags of the capital camp embroidered with golden tigers on a black background were planted all over the building, and there stood soldiers of the capital camp who also wore black armor and held knives and guns.

In the bitter cold wind, the black flag rustled, and the tips of the knives and guns shone coldly. Two warships guarded the taller and more solemn dragon boat in the middle one after the other.

The golden boat roof, red hull, and the bright yellow flag embroidered with four-clawed golden dragons are flying high in the wind, and there is also a majestic dragon head carved on the bow, which everywhere shows the noble status of the person on the boat.

His Royal Highness decided to leave earlier than Lin Fangxu expected. I wonder if it was the result of his father's urging?

However, it can be seen from this that the Holy Majesty and the Crown Prince are interested in the reform of the city's ship tax, Lin Fangxu is also more at ease, follow along, promotion and salary are very promising!

Lin Fangxu's uncle, nephew, master and servant were picked up by the Prince's Mansion in a horse-drawn carriage. They left for Jiangnan this time, and they didn't know that they would be able to come back only in the year of the monkey. Lin Fangxu had already decided to return the small courtyard that he rented, and the cook had an extra half a month. Salary, no need to come again in the future.

When saying goodbye, the cook was still a bit reluctant. After all, the young men were kind and kind, and they were not overly picky. Although the capital had no worries about not being able to find work, it would be difficult to meet such an easy-to-serve master again.

The people at the ferry crossing had already been separated by the soldiers of the capital camp who had arrived ahead of time. Although the East Palace did not need to be sent off by Ge Lao and Shang Shu in person, the six ministries still sent two members of each of the six ministries to wait there early. Kong Jie and Shang Tan came to see them off as representatives.

According to the scale of the tour that the East Palace should have, the prince can be said to travel lightly this time. Apart from a few servants, he only brought two princes, Zhan Shi, and a hundred personal guards.

It is worth mentioning that the two ministers are still in the capital, and the prince actually has no major matters to explain. Instead, in just three days, more than 20 low-level officials were selected from each of the six departments to accompany them, and some of them did not pass the exam. Shu Jishi, Shen Mao who was assigned to the Ministry of Punishment to observe politics.

Shen Mao only received the news when he was about to leave, so he followed him without doing anything, and he didn't have a chance to communicate with Dongsheng in advance.

This time is not a good occasion to exchange pleasantries. Fortunately, the tacit understanding between the two is still there. Looking at each other, they both know in their hearts that many officials of the Municipal Bureau of Shipping will suffer this time. Don’t you see that His Royal Highness, even the candidates Did you bring it on?

Kong Jie and the others went forward to salute the prince, and said some compliments such as that the prince will go in person and will definitely turn the tide.

Looking at the soldiers of the capital battalion in armor and holding knives and guns, Kong Jie thought to himself, "Can it be unsuccessful?"Since the news of His Majesty's transfer of the capital camp came out yesterday, I don't know how many people were afraid that they couldn't sleep well, and once again sent a message back to their ancestral home overnight.The capital camp is not only a sharp weapon to deter the enemy, but also a tiger to frighten the aristocratic family! '

While Kong Jie was thinking wildly, Chen Yongbin, the commander of the Jingshi battalion, the person in charge of the Jingshi battalion, came to report that everything was ready and ready to go, and Zhu Xianzong led the people onto the building boat one by one.

Lin Xiuhao quietly followed his uncle, thinking that he could go home on a dragon boat this time, he couldn't help feeling overwhelmed, he looked at the carved handrails for a while, and the dragon embroidered banner for a while, and the result of looking around quietly was bumping into him. On the back of the uncle who stopped suddenly, his nose hurt so much that he couldn't help but yelled "Ouch".

Zhu Xianzong walked in front with Zhan Shi and Chen Yongbin from the Prince's Mansion. When he heard the movement and turned his head, he saw Lin Sheren almost fell to the ground when he was hit by his nephew. , just looking at a little brother of the capital camp who was on duty on the deck of the dragon boat and smirked.

When Lin Xiuhao rubbed his nose to react, he saw the future little uncle wearing the military uniform of the capital camp.

Clothes, armor, standing on the side of the ship holding a spear in a heroic manner, my uncle..., forget it, my uncle can no longer see.

It has been rumored in the capital for a while that the younger brother of the Marquis of Wu'an's mansion was under the list to catch his son-in-law, and it didn't stop until the two families got married.Zhu Xianzong looked at the two people who were smirking and blushing, and thinking of the princess who was preparing her luggage for him yesterday with her stomach full, he suddenly had a sense of superiority that had nothing to do with his identity, just because he had already experienced the same thing.

Lin Xiuhao looked at the prince hall and turned to look at the uncle and the others smiled, then turned around and left, quickly tugged on the sleeve of the young uncle, and whispered: "Uncle..., don't laugh, let's go, prince Your Highness is waiting."

Apart from the initial surprise, Lin Fangxu actually smiled at Jiang Shiyun for a while. He had already reacted by now, and whispered to Jiang Shiyun, "I will come to you later", and told Lin Xiuhao to go back to the room with the servant who led the way. Then headed towards the meeting hall on the ship.

As soon as Zhu Xianzong sat down with the people, he saw Lin Fangxu following in, so he teased: "Looking at Dongsheng's face today, I'm afraid there is a happy event."

Wang Xiaowen, Zhan Shi of the Prince's Mansion, who was about 30 years old, looked at Lin Fangxu twice, and said seriously: "What Your Highness said is very true. Upon closer inspection, Lin Liushou's eyes are full of spring, and there are peach blossoms on the tip of his brows. , I'm afraid this happy event is not small."

"Ha ha……"

Zhu Xianzong finally couldn't help laughing out loud, and the others laughed so hard that they leaned forward and backward. Lin Fangxu was not ashamed, and he bowed his hands generously to the front, back, left, and right, with a smile on his face, as if begging for forgiveness: "I saw you laughing... ..., just kidding, it's human nature, it's human nature."

Seeing him like this, Zhu Xianzong pointed at him through the air, and said helplessly: "You are really cheeky, okay... Mu Shaoai and Lianfulang are indeed human! Don't make fun of Dongsheng, everyone!" .”

After Wang Xiaowen laughed enough, he said with emotion: "Everyone is pointing out that they can relax a little bit now, and they will be busy when they arrive in Ningbo. Oh... No, I'm afraid some people are already busy."

Zhu Xianzong had a very close relationship with him, and after hearing what he said, he was not surprised, and joked directly: "What? So what if others are busy, Xiaowen is scared."

Wang Xiaowen didn't seem to be afraid of this word, immediately his eyes were firm, and he said in a high-spirited tone: "Your Highness is joking, there were perfect laws and regulations in the time of the first emperor of Shibo Taxation, and now the reform is just to follow the law. Ha... What is there to be afraid of? , Could it be that what kind of ferocious beast is facing, even if it is a ferocious beast, isn’t there still a sharp sword in Commander Chen’s hand?!”

Seeing His Royal Highness looking at him, Chen Yongbin quickly clenched his fists and said: "I will follow His Highness' orders, and I will die if I go through fire or water."

"Didn't Xiaowen say that he should relax before reaching Ningbo? Then don't talk about it." After Zhu Xianzong finished speaking, he said to Shen Mao and other twenty people with a relaxed expression on his face: "Don't listen to Xiaowen's alarmist talk, what's the matter?" Let's talk about it later, no matter how big the matter is, the hall will take care of it, what should you do now, go ahead! I think Dong Sheng won't be able to sit still for a long time?"

Lin Fangxu is full of innocence, he really wants to leave, who wants to see the two of you going back and forth, showing both kindness and power to calm people's hearts?But you have peace of mind, why do you bring yourself out to make fun of?

So Lin Fangxu said earnestly, "I am honored to be able to listen to His Highness's teachings. I wish I could get a few more words. Other things are secondary. When can't I do it?"

Zhu Xianzong choked, looking at his expression of being lucky for three lives, he felt his teeth sour and his stomach hurting. From the literary meeting to the court meeting, he had watched Lin Fangxu grow up. He still didn't know what kind of guy he was, so he couldn't help it now. I cursed in my heart, 'What a little bastard! '

Zhu Xianzong didn't bother to talk nonsense with him, so he waved his hand directly and said: "You and everyone else should leave together, you don't rest, this hall wants to rely on it for a while, but I don't have that much energy, and I don't have time to teach you!"

After Wang Xiaowen and the others retreated, he couldn't help but burst out laughing, regardless of the displeasure on His Highness's face, he praised: "This little Liusong is really a wonderful person!"

Zhu Xianzong smiled helplessly, and said: "Yes, at such a young age, you can already be regarded as a talent for managing the world, but it's a pity that you are very slippery!"

Wang Xiaowen smiled and didn't answer. Although His Highness said so, it was obvious that he actually valued that kid very much. Sure enough, Zhu Xianwen thought for a while and then said to Chen Yongbin who had been waiting by his side all the time: "Since the little brother of the Marquis of Wu'an is His fiancé, why not let Jiang Baihu lead a team to protect him, that boy Tingyi's remarks also offended many people, don't accidentally get slaughtered."

The five sons of Hangzhou got together when they were taking a bath last month, and then they were busy, and they hadn’t seen each other for a long time. Shen Mao pulled Lin Fangxu to the bow of the boat, and sighed: "Dongsheng, what you said during the court meeting, I guess it has already spread all over the place, Brother Wei is really sweating for you!"

Lin Fangxu leaned on the side of the boat, and said not so much: "I'm worried about Lao Darong, but fortunately, there is no danger. Isn't someone carrying this big flag now? Surely no one will stare at me, a little shrimp!"

Shen Mao was still a little worried, and babbled: "You still have to be careful. Sometimes when people get angry, they won't reason with you. If you can catch someone venting their anger, you can catch whoever..."

Lin Fangxu listened to Darong's words of concern, but looked at the little brother on duty not far away. He didn't interrupt Shen Mao until he saw a soldier from the capital battalion walking over and saying something and taking Xiaoyun's place. : "Da Rong, let's talk about the city ship tax later, I have something to do now, let's go first."

Shen Mao watched him walking towards Jiang Shaolang with a happy face, feeling a little speechless in his heart, "I wasn't talking about the city ship tax just now, ah..., I'm so dizzy." '
