Loyal heart travels a long way

When the imperial decree arrived, everyone had already had their lunch. The father-in-law who read the imperial decree was waiting in the living room in the front yard. Qin Yong pretended that he was seriously injured and asked the servant to help him. Everyone changed into decent clothes and came together. Come to listen to the order in the front hall.

Qin Zhengqi and Qin Xian went to the front hall first, seeing Qin Yong's pale face being mixed in by the servants, they looked at each other and smiled without saying a word.Chu Lang took the expressions of the two into his eyes, and the smile on Qin Zhengqi's mouth chilled her heart.

She had known that Qin Zhengqi didn't like her, and she didn't have any filial affection for this son-in-law. She used to think that it might be better when the sun grew up, but as Qin Yong grew up, her husband's dislike for the backyard was almost as good as his. Put it on the surface.

Why is she so cold?Already knew it, didn't you?

The father-in-law sang loudly: "Qin Zhengqi and Qin Yong received the order—"

Qin Zhengqi raised the hem of his round-necked robe, knelt on the ground, and spoke first: "Chen, Qin Zhengqi accepts the order."

Everyone in the room knelt down on the ground, Qin Yong pulled his arm out of Qian Duoduo's hand, as if about to kneel, the eunuch raised his hand and waved twice: "The emperor has an order: the envoy who returns the pearl is injured, so there is no need to be polite; The madam has been exhausted all the way, so no courtesy; I wish you all the best in finding Princess Jingming, this little lady of the Qin family saved Princess Rumeng's life when she was young, so no courtesy."

The emperor said that there is no courtesy, that is, there is no need to kneel down, and you can stand to receive the order.Qin Yong, Chu Lang, Zhu Chengdong, and Gu Zhiyao were all exempt from courtesy, but the only masters kneeling on the ground were Qin Zhengqi and Qin Xian.

Qin Zhengqi knew in his heart that Qin Yong had already relied on the favor of the emperor, and the emperor supported Qin Yong as a face. As for who he wanted to show this face to, it was self-evident, and he clenched his fists angrily.

If I knew this earlier, I might as well let Qin Xian go that day.

"Follow the sky to carry the goods, the emperor decreed:

Princess Jingming left the palace safely for ten years, and now the spirit of the phoenix returns to the palace, posthumously named the eldest princess Jingming, buried in the imperial tomb, the eldest princess stands in the Taimiao, and is enshrined by the royal children.

Returning the pearls made Qin Yong meritorious in finding the royal blood, but thinking that he was young and had not yet obtained fame, he was temporarily appointed as the sixth-rank Zhan Shifu You Zhongyun, and rewarded ten thousand taels of gold, two hundred pieces of silk, one dendrobium of pearls, and four east pearls I wish Chengdong the meritorious service in assisting the Pearl Returning Envoy to find the royal blood, rewarding 5000 taels of gold, one hundred pieces of silk, and one dendrobium of pearls; People who live in safety will be rewarded with 5000 taels of gold, [-] pieces of silk, [-] hu of pearls, and [-] dongzhus; Feng Jingyou is enshrined in the Hanlin for his meritorious service in solving the case, and he will be awarded the title of fourth-rank Zuo Shaoqing of Dali Temple. He will be rewarded with [-] liang of gold, [-] pieces of silk, and [-] hu of pearls. .

Princess Jingming has a righteous daughter An Rumeng among the people. I saw that she fell in love with Princess Jingming, and the eldest princess was adopted as a righteous daughter. She was raised under Concubine Rui's knee and named Princess Rumeng.

Song Ruyan and Zheng Qingfeng conspired to kill the royal family, committed suicide in fear of crime, and hung their corpses at the Meridian Gate for three days; "

Gu Zhiyao was stunned for a moment, he and Ah Man were just acquaintances, but he never saved Ah Man's name, presumably it was Qin Yong who calculated it with the emperor in order to give him a new identity, but he didn't know why he still needed it. Dress up as a woman.But these things are arranged by Qin Yong, he always has a reason and won't harm himself, so he doesn't worry about it too much.

After everyone accepted the order, Qin Xian ordered the servant to give the eunuch a red envelope. The eunuch smiled and looked at Qin Yong, and said, "Congratulations to Qin Zhongyun. The emperor ordered our family to bring a message to Qin Zhongyun. Qin Zhongyun will be able to participate in Enke in the next year, without having to wait for the weak crown. If Qin Zhongyun obtains fame at that time, he will have the position of Mr. Zhongyun in the six departments. Mr. Zhu has his extraordinary ability, and he may be wronged by arranging official positions at will. .”

The eunuch shook his whisk, and then looked at Gu Zhiyao: "The little madam is precious, Princess Rumeng doesn't have any new playmates in the palace for a while, Mr. Zhongyun has time to take the little madam to see the princess stop."

Gu Zhiyao waited for the eunuch to finish talking with Qin Yong, and then ordered Qian Manman to seal the red envelope for the eunuch. He deliberately competed with Qin Xian, and deliberately sealed ten taels of silver more than Qin Xian. The eunuch took the red envelope with both hands, thank you very much I went back to the palace.

As soon as the father-in-law left, Qin Zhengqi and Qin Xian's expressions were a little unsightly. Qin Zhengqi squinted at Qin Yong, and felt that this rebellious son was uncomfortable no matter what he looked at, so he choked on him: "Congratulations Qin Zhongyun, Zhan Shifu, it's straightforward Do something for the emperor."

The corners of Qin Yong's mouth curled up, and Qin Zhengqi gave Qin Zhengqi a hypocritical smirk, and he didn't respond to him, but Chu Lang stretched out his hand to pull Gu Zhiyao: "Yao'er is also a high-ranking wife, and there is no such thing as a servant of her own." It's ridiculous, Yong'er, you take Yao'er to buy some women and maids tomorrow, and you can add a few more servants. Now that there are two of you in the house who are going to grow up, you can't be short of money, and the cook will also invite one back."

Qin Yong nodded in agreement, ignored Qin Zhengqi and Qin Xian's stiff faces, and went back to the backyard with Chu Lang and Gu Zhiyao.

Zhu Chengdong also didn't want to stay and stare at Qin Zhengqi and Qin Xian. Naturally, he went back to the backyard. He took Gu Zhiyao to practice martial arts all morning. Now that the three masters have gone back to the house to rest for lunch, he also went back to the backyard. Go to the house to catch up on sleep.

This time there was no servant to bother him outside, and he was exhausted after a nap.

When they got up in the afternoon, Qin Yong and Gu Zhiyao had already occupied the small pavilion by the pool. The stone table was covered with rice paper, copybooks and the Book of Songs were spread out, just like a happy scene of brothers reading and learning calligraphy together.

Zhu Chengdong's brain was hurt by Gu Zhiyao, the fine boy who rushed over yesterday, he got tired of seeing the two brothers studying together, and felt that something was wrong all over him, and couldn't help but want to play tricks on them to repay that he was disturbed in his sleep last night hatred.

There is no place to hide in the yard, only the canopy of a few trees canopy, hiding in and throwing stones into the pool can scare the two who are concentrating on reading and writing.

Since you want to be scary, you have to be prepared.He first picked a stone of suitable size on the ground, and then sneaked under the tree in the courtyard.

Zhu Chengdong is used to teasing cats and dogs, climbing trees and hunting birds is never a problem, not to mention he has lightness skills, he just dodges and quietly leaps up to the canopy of the tree.Qin Yong and Gu Zhiyao didn't seem to be aware of this, they were still reading with books spread out, and the other was lying on the table practicing big characters without even raising their eyelids.

Zhu Chengdong was amused in his heart, and planned to go to the tree closer to the two of them. After scaring people, he could use a trick to fall from the sky. I'm afraid it wasn't for the two cousins ​​who would be even more surprised.

He shook the front of his round-necked robe, stood on tiptoe and leaped up to the canopy of the tree above, stretching his right hand backwards to hold onto the tree trunk to stabilize his figure.

Um?What is within reach is not only the rough tree trunk, but also the silky feel of the fabric. When Zhu Chengdong turned his head, a red face with a beard came into view.

"I...what the hell?" The cousin was not scared, but Zhu Chengdong jumped himself, unsteady on his feet and fell into the pond.The koi in the pond were originally swimming around the lotus, but suddenly a huge monster fell from the sky, and they ran away in shock.

In a sense, Zhu Chengdong's trick of falling from the sky was still used, but the foothold was a bit biased.

Gu Zhiyao reacted quickly, when he saw someone fall from a tree, he stepped back and fell onto Qin Yong's lap.And the spring water splashed by the person who fell soaked the rice paper on the table.

"Cousin? What's going on here?" Gu Zhiyao saw Zhu Chengdong stand up from the pool with a lotus leaf on his back, his clothes were completely soaked, and the round-neck robe was originally heroic, but now it's like dried pickles Stick it on him.

Zhu Chengdong spat out expressionlessly, took out a koi from his arms and threw it back into the pond, "Did you raise monkey monsters in the trees?"

And the monkey monster finally poked out its horrible face from the canopy at this time, with a branch pinned to its ear: "Master, this subordinate seems to have scared Master Biao."
