From the end to the other world

Even if it is not the official position of Tongzhi, Qin Luochuan believes that the emperor will give him the right to listen to Datian, but the status of Tongzhi will make his actions much more convenient.

The edict has not yet been announced to the public, but since the emperor showed it to Qin Luochuan, it will definitely not be changed.

After Qin Luochuan thanked him, the emperor waved his hand and said, "Since the matter has been settled, let's hurry up and make preparations."

"I obey the order." Qin Luochuan cupped his hands and said.

But before he retreated to the door, he was stopped by the emperor again, "Wait a minute."

Qin Luochuan turned around and stood with folded hands, slightly bent, waiting for the emperor's order.

The emperor hesitated for a long time before he said awkwardly: "Remember to speak carefully in the letter to your father!"

Qin Luochuan was stunned for a moment, couldn't help but twitched the corners of his lips, and said with a smile: "I'll spare you."

***

Whether it is money and food for disaster relief or military pay for the Southwest Army, people from the household department will prepare it, so there is no need for Qin Luochuan to worry about it.

The servant he is currently serving has nothing to hand over, so the emperor asked him to make preparations. Qin Luochuan thought about it for a while, and it seemed that only his own family needed to make preparations, so he simply went back to tidy up with Shang Qingyue.

The house the two of them live in is Qin Yan's. When they didn't come, Uncle Fu took care of them. After they left, they could let Uncle Fu take care of them as before, and they didn't need to worry about it.

Last winter, Shang Qingyue bought two more villas on the outskirts of the city. They left the capital this time, and even if they came back, they didn't know how many years later. After discussing it, the husband and wife decided to sell it. , Anyway, I just bought it not long ago, so I don’t feel bad.

The only exception is that the tea house, the business is good, not to mention, and the two of them have put a lot of thought into it, so if they just make a move, they are really reluctant.

After Qin Luochuan and Shang Qingyue looked at each other, they thought of Princess Ning at the same time. Anyway, Princess Ning also has a role in the teahouse. If she is willing to take over, it will be justified, and Qin Luochuan and Shang Qingyue are also relieved.

Even if they found a free time, the two went to visit Prince Ning's Mansion with Xiaotuanzi in their arms.

After learning about their intentions, Concubine Ning said in shock: "Are you planning to leave Beijing with your family?"

Qin Luochuan replied: "Yes, a transfer order will be issued in a few days, and we will go to the southwest with the relief supplies."

Concubine Ning pondered for a while and said: "Do you want to think about it again? If you don't want to go, I will let the prince talk to the emperor. Anyway, the transfer order has not yet come out."

Qin Luochuan was grateful in his heart, but he still couldn't laugh or cry, "I've already made up my mind, so I came to ask the princess if she would like to take over the teahouse."

"There are a lot of things in the palace..." Princess Ning sighed, then she thought of something, and her tone changed, "But there are not many things in the teahouse, if you want, you can leave it to the concubine Shizi to take care of it. "

Concubine Shizi is the mother of the little twin who Princess Ning tried to marry Xiao Tuanzi back then. Although Princess Ning just said that Concubine Shizi would help manage the teahouse, Qin Luochuan always felt that Concubine Ning had other ideas.

It's just that he can't ask this kind of thought, and because the other party is the princess, it's offensive for him to even think so.

As a result, on the second day after Shang Qingyue agreed to hand over the teahouse to Shi Zifei, Shi Zifei came to Qin Luochuan's house with her young son in her arms. The little boy played with Xiaotuanzi all day long.

With such an obvious performance, even Suxue and Tingyu saw her intentions.

Qin Luochuan was also very helpless, Xiaotuanzi was only one year old, let alone a few days, even if he played together for a few months, he wouldn't be able to remember it.

After arranging the family property, it is the maids and servants in the house.

Shang Qingyue held their deeds of selling themselves, if they were to be placed on someone else, they would definitely be taken to Danzhou together.

However, Qin Luochuan didn't think it was necessary. Danzhou was a poor country, and if everyone didn't want to go, he wouldn't force it.

After discussing with Shang Qingyue, I found a time to gather all the servants together and said: "I think everyone knows that I will be transferred to Danzhou soon, where there is a barrier between Guanshan and the capital city, and there is a flood , if you don’t want to go together, I won’t force you all, I will return the contract of sale to Princess Ning, and I will tell her to let you continue to work in Prince Ning’s mansion.”

These days of day and night preparations, everyone thought that going to Danzhou with them was a certainty, and even many people had already said goodbye to their relatives in private. Unexpectedly, Qin Luochuan let them decide whether to go with them or not. , they were all stunned on the spot for a moment, their expressions were as if shocked.

Qin Luochuan couldn't control that much, and said calmly: "You guys make up your mind early and tell me, so that I can go talk to Princess Ning tomorrow, and it will be impossible to change my mind later, so you must think carefully about it."

Suxue was the first to react, and after taking a deep breath, she made a decision, and said to Qin Luochuan and Shang Qingyue: "The servant is willing to go to Danzhou with the master."

After she finished speaking, Ting Yu also said weakly: "I am the same as Su Xue."

"You don't need to rush to make a decision now," Qin Luochuan tapped his fingers on the table, "Think carefully, and tell me tomorrow before it's too late."

After speaking, Qin Luochuan waved his hands and said, "Go and do your work first."

After hearing the words, everyone discussed in low voices and went out, Shang Qingyue called Suxue to stop and Ting Yu said: "You stay here."

Suxue and Tingyu are very capable in doing things. If they go to Danzhou together, Shang Qingyue will feel a lot easier, but Suxue has always been calm, she doesn't seem to be someone who makes impulsive decisions, and her father is still in the capital... …

Shang Qingyue glanced at the two maids standing with their heads down, and asked, "Tell me why you want to go to Danzhou."

"Servant..." Suxue pondered for a moment, thinking of the relationship between the master and the lord, she decided to speak out, "The mother of the servant's family has passed away long ago, and the father married a second wife half a year ago."

Speaking of this, Su Xue lowered her head even lower, bit her lips and said: "When I went back last month, my stepmother said that I am not too young, and the monthly money and rewards from the master these years are enough to redeem myself , Let me find the master to redeem the contract of sale after this month is over, they told me about the family and let me go back and marry someone."

As soon as she finished speaking, Ting Yu said angrily: "What do you mean by talking about a family, it is obvious that you want to sell you to a merchant."

Since this is the case, Shang Qingyue can also understand why she is willing to follow her to Danzhou, so she turned to Tingyu and asked, "What about you?"

"My lord knows that I have lost my parents a long time ago, and it's the same wherever I go," Ting Yu shrugged and said, "Follow my lord and my lord, and you don't have to worry about being promised to someone who doesn't want to."

After she finished speaking, she stuck out her tongue again, and said mischievously: "And the little master is so cute, if you don't go to Danzhou, won't you be able to see him in the future?"

Shang Qingyue laughed and reprimanded: "You are the only one who is clever."

The matter of the two maidservants going to Danzhou with them was settled in this way.

If there is no special reason, there are a few people who are willing to leave their hometowns, so after giving the servants the right to choose, apart from Suxue and Tingyu, Qin Luochuan didn't think anyone would follow them to Danzhou.

It can only be said that when people miscalculate, he and Shang Qingyue treat their servants generously on weekdays. Those who no longer have family members, or those who have conflicts with their families like Su Xue, will choose to go to Danzhou with them. normal.

So when Qin Luochuan asked everyone to choose on the second day, six of the eight people were willing to go with them, including the boy who often followed Qin Luochuan. His father was a cook, and his mother also worked in the mansion. They all decided to follow.

With these people who are used to it, after arriving in Danzhou, Shang Qingyue will be much more relaxed, and Qin Luochuan will be much more at ease when he leaves home to do business.

.

It took less than half a month for the household department to prepare almost all the money and food for the disaster relief and the military salary of the Southwest Army.

Because he was about to leave the capital soon, Qin Luochuan had different farewell banquets to attend almost every day in the past few days, colleagues and scholars who had a good relationship, because he didn't know whether he would have the opportunity to meet again after this separation, and These people all know his personality, and they will not choose the meeting place where he does not go, so as long as there is no conflict in time, Qin Luochuan will attend.

At the end of the day before departure, Qin Luochuan held a banquet at home and invited Yang Xi and Wen Shi to have a banquet.

They were all close friends, Qin Luochuan and Shang Qingyue specially cooked a lot of dishes for them.

Although Yang Xi was heartless a lot of the time, but thinking of parting from now on and not knowing when they would see each other again, her eyes turned red as she ate.

Wen Shiyan was also a little sad.

Qin Luochuan didn't want to make the atmosphere too sad, so he patted Yang Xi on the shoulder and said, "Although it's a pity that I won't be able to eat my dishes for a long time, there's no need for you to be so sad. It’s the same when it’s open, and if you want to eat, go there to satisfy your hunger.”

"I didn't... I did..." After Yang Xi finished speaking, she understood what he meant, and she also smiled and said, "You are right, anyway, I am a distinguished guest of the teahouse, so I can eat whatever I want, and I can eat whatever I want. No need to line up."

After the two teased, the atmosphere relaxed a lot afterwards. Everyone talked about their future plans and made an appointment to wait for Qin Luochuan to settle down in Danzhou, and Wen Shiyan and the others would find a chance to visit Danzhou.

Wen Shiyan had nothing to do with Princess Mingxin except for the management of the "Wen Tan" books and periodicals. He had plenty of time to go out and play, and before taking the scientific examination, he had traveled to many places in Dayan Hearing that he was going to Danzhou, he really wanted to go. Hearing that, Yang Xi, who didn't even have a chance to go back to Yuxi Town to visit relatives, was so envious.

A few people chatted and laughed, and the banquet didn't end until the afternoon. Qin Luochuan and Shang Qingyue personally sent them outside the door, watching them get into the carriage and leave, both of them felt a little disappointed.

Standing side by side at the door for a long time before turning around to go in, he was stopped by the door guard, who handed a roll of paper to Qin Luochuan and said, "Master, this was sent by a little boy just now, saying Someone asked him to give it to the owner."

The little boy was asked to deliver the letter, but it was also delivered to the guard at the gate. Obviously, he didn't want him to know who it was. After Qin Luochuan took it, he glanced outside the gate. The street side of the gate was empty, not even a pedestrian. There will be someone suspicious.

Therefore, he was not in a hurry, and did not open the paper until he entered the house.

After seeing the contents inside, Qin Luochuan couldn't help but frowned fiercely.

Seeing this, Shang Qingyue asked, "What's written in it?"

Qin Luochuan directly handed over the note in his hand.

With Qin Luochuan's hand in hand, Shang Qingyue saw clearly the endless words on it: keep the money and food for disaster relief on the road.
