No, gentlemen also guard against

Chapter 287 Reunion
Early winter morning.

The morning breeze by the river is like a loach, always burrowing into the chest and back from the gap in the neck and clothes.

The sweaty Lauf who was carrying the goods on the pier couldn't help shivering.

Fortunately, it has been sunny in Xunyang City for several days in a row. Just after morning, the pale yellow sunshine in the morning fell on the faces of everyone at the ferry and warmed them, dispelling some of the chill.

Today is another fine day.

The largest pier in Xunyang City was bustling and busy before dawn.

Those carrying grain and cargo, those traveling from all directions, those who landed for business, and ships from all over Lingnan and Jiangnan docked and then sailed away.

In just one morning, I don't know how many people and goods have been handled.

Bustling with business travelers.

As the most prosperous ferry crossing in Jiangzhou, known as "the most popular place in the world", Xunyang Ferry is full of vitality.

In the midst of the burgeoning vitality of all things in the morning, a private boat with the banner of Nanlong Ouyang's family arrived at the ferry and gradually docked.

This ship did not attract too many people's attention. At most, sporadic keen people may go to the city after seeing the flag. The newly appointed Lord Chang Shi, who is also surnamed Ouyang, who has not shown much in the city, doesn't have much association. .

The sun-soaked hull collided with the ancient bricks of the pier, splashing a small splash of water.

Before the ladder for disembarkation was lowered, a young man in a blue suit with a knife emerged from the crowd at the pier.

He took the lead and leaped vigorously onto the boat that traveled thousands of miles.

"Mrs. Zhen, Miss Ye, I'll bring the luggage, you guys rest."

"En." This is the woman's lazy and beautiful voice.

"Brother Yan, thank you for your hard work." It was a girlish voice that was somewhat ethereal.

"Hey, ma'am, Miss Ye is being polite."

With a "bang", the stairs landed on the ground and were lowered steadily.

A plump woman in her early thirties led a group of pretty and beautiful maids, Shi Shiran, off the boat.

The beautiful woman wore a rose-red slow-tie skirt to prevent the floor-sweeping skirt from getting knotted at the calf.

Her red lips are slightly thick, and there is a light mole on the corner of her lips, which is just the finishing touch, and there is no lack of glamor in her dignified temperament.

She has a pair of bright red phoenix eyes that look around. The corners of her eyes are turned up, and she is quite stern. At first glance, she is not an easy woman to get along with.

Behind the cold and charming woman in the skirt were an exotic girl with silver hair and blue eyes, and a Silla maid with low eyebrows and a slim waist.

The girl with silver hair and blue eyes also wore a rose-red skirt of a similar color. She stood closer to the woman in the cool skirt and followed her obediently.

It was Zhen Shuyuan, Ye Weila, Banxi and other family members who came from Nanlong.

Yan Liulang followed Shunv, helped carry the luggage, and enthusiastically gave directions: "Go there."

Zhen Shuyuan, who came from Nanlongxiang County, looked at the dock scene with some curiosity and said without looking back:

"Catcher Yan doesn't need to bother with luggage, there are also sons and daughters on board. I specially brought some young men from the village from Nanlong to help Gu Tanlang."

"That's okay. Madam, Miss Ye, come with me. The motorcade is waiting outside the pier. The Ming government has recently established some rules at Xunyang Ferry. Passenger carriages and the like are not allowed inside, as it is prone to congestion..."

Yan Liulang walked at the front, leading the way for Zhen Shuyuan and Ye Weilai, looking back from time to time and introducing them with a smile.

Unlike the maids like Banxi who were looking around and looking around, Ye Weilai accompanied her with a calm face the whole time after getting off the boat, she didn't seem interested in the bustling scene around her.

At a certain moment, Ye Weilai couldn't help asking: "Brother Yan, are you Tanlang?"

Yan Liulang turned around:
"The Ming Mansion is near here. Today, the transportation department at the pier is busy and can't come. I just happen to be on vacation today, so I'm here to pick you up."

"Oh." Ye Weilai's face looked unsurprised.

The nephew didn't come to pick him up so close, Zhen Shuyuan also didn't blame her at all, she turned her head and said to the villagers who followed cautiously:
"It's better to be busy. Tanlang has just taken office, and his superiors and subordinates are all looking at him. He must set an example. Being an official is not about being arrogant. You must neither be arrogant nor impetuous... My Tanlang is really awesome."

The tone couldn't hide the pride.

The people from the village who took refuge and followed him repeatedly praised and praised someone, and the glamorous woman in a skirt raised her chin.

Yan Liulang, who was walking in the front, couldn't help laughing.

Madam's character and tone... are still familiar.

Soon, everyone squeezed out of the port and boarded the carriage under the shade of a row of trees. The maids and servants loaded their luggage into the carriage, and Yan Liulang also helped.

As we all know, women always have a lot of luggage, unlike Ouyang Rong who took office alone and moved in with bags, Zhen Shi brought more than a dozen large boxes from Nanlong.

Yan Liulang helped to carry it, busy before and after, without any complaints.

Zhen Shuyuan was used to this, and got into the front carriage early; Ye Weilai stayed under the carriage, handing water and towels, and behaved politely.

After packing up, Yan Liulang greeted the coachman, and the convoy slowly left the bustling Xunyang Ferry.

"Where is Master Yan going..." the leading groom asked the way respectfully.

Yan Liulang wiped his forehead with his sleeves, and gave an address: "Huaiye Lane..."

"Master Yan?" Zhen Shuyuan was slightly curious, and asked casually, "What is Liu Lang doing in Jiangzhou?"

Yan Liulang scratched his head: "Judicial joins the army."

"Judicial joining the army?" Zhen Shuyuan turned her head and asked, "Well, what is this for?" with a puzzled tone:
"You no longer want to be the chief of the police? I remember that your work in Longcheng was not bad. If you stay a few more years, you can become a full-time official and replace your father's county captain. You have not been promoted to a scholar. You can be a ninth-grade officer at a young age. The county captain is pretty good."

Zhen Shuyuan gave some experience advice.

"I still won't do it." Yan Liulang shook his head: "I talked to my father, and he didn't stop me, he agreed with me to follow Mingfu. Now I will go wherever Mingfu goes."

Zhen Shuyuan's tone was regretful: "It would be a pity to break the arrangement of family connections..."

"Big lady..."

A silver-haired girl who silently read many books in the owner's collection during the ancestor worship in Nanlong whispered:

"Jiangzhou's judiciary joins the army. He is an official rank of the eighth grade. Well, he is responsible for law enforcement and prison management, supervising and arresting thieves, and compelling officials to investigate bribery."

Ye Weilai read it easily and recited it fluently.

Zhen Shuyuan: "..."

Faced with the wide-eyed and slanting gaze of the woman in Luoqun, Yan Liulang was a little embarrassed and grinned:
"Back to Xianxiang's Dongfeng, the Ming government arranged for me to become a regular captain of Longcheng County. Originally, I wanted to operate it this time and be transferred to the state...

"I didn't expect that Ming Fu personally recommended me to join the army as a judicial officer... Well, ma'am, now I am in charge of all the arrests in Xunyang City, and I can be regarded as the head of the arrests."

Under the provincial governors such as the governor of Jiangzhou and the chief minister, there are six judges: Si Gong, Si Cang, Si Hu, Si Bing, Judi, and Si Shi.

There are six officers who joined the army, corresponding to the six ministries of the imperial court.

Everyone couldn't help but look sideways at the young man in blue clothes with a sword.

An eighth-rank official just carried their luggage for them...

Zhen Shuyuan coughed, looked Yan Liulang up and down, and the beautiful woman nodded solemnly:

"Rokuro is quite promising. I am indeed right... I will help Tanlang properly in the future and cultivate him in vain." "Yes, madam." Yan Liulang nodded vigorously.

At this moment, the convoy suddenly stopped. Yan Liulang subconsciously held the handle of the knife and opened the curtain. Before questioning the driver, his eyes were attracted by the scene in front of him.

It turned out that their convoy was too long, just in front of them there was also a gorgeous and huge convoy approaching, and the two convoys met at the corner, immediately blocking the road.

Zhen Shuyuan glanced at the rich and dignified posture of the opposite team, her face hesitated, and she turned her head and said: "Let's make room for a while."

Yan Liulang nodded and directed the convoy.

But who would have thought that someone in the convoy ahead seemed to be sizing up their side. Immediately, a dark Kunlun slave trotted up to Zhen Shuyuan's carriage and asked something in a low voice. Zhen Shuyuan didn't hear clearly, but immediately heard Yan Liulang outside. Responding with words like gold: "Chang Shi's female relatives..."

Kunlun Nu immediately ran back. After a while, the gorgeous and wealthy convoy in front moved first.

Actively get out of the way.

Yan Liulang was not polite, waved his hand to signal the convoy to move forward, and drove past the Huagui convoy.

When he passed by, his face was calm, and he cupped his fists and arched his hands.

Zhen Shuyuan, who was in the carriage, saw with sharp eyes that in the carriage at the front of the convoy on the opposite side, there seemed to be a lady wearing silk silk sitting upright. The lady's face could not be seen, and she could only see a little finger wearing a ring that opened half of the carriage. The curtain revealed half of his face, his bright red lips curled up, as if he was smiling slightly in the direction of Zhen Shuyuan.

She quickly returned a friendly smile.

After a while, the Kunlun slave who delivered the message came after him again. He bowed his head and respectfully handed over a gilded name card with both hands:
"My eldest lady has admired Master Changshi for a long time... I implore your family to accept..."

Today, Judicial Joining the Army, dressed in normal clothes and with a simple knife, glanced at the "Pei" surname on the name card, reached out to take it, and handed it to Zhen Shuyuan and Ye Weilai in the carriage.

The two girls looked at the name card.

Zhen Shuyuan looked hesitant, Ye Weilai shook her head at her.

Yan Liulang seemed to see the concerns of the second daughter, and said softly:

"Madam can accept it, it's not a gift, it's just a sticker, I want to form a good relationship, get to know Mingfu, it won't affect Mingfu or anything.

"Heh, Mingfu's style in the past half a month... Now in Xunyang City, there are many people who want to get acquainted with Mingfu and make him familiar. Every day there are different patterns of posting banquets."

Yan Liulang laughed. It has been nearly half a month since he followed Mingfu to Jiangzhou to take up his post.

Ke Mingfu went to the Xunyang Tower to attend a clean-up dinner on the day he took office, and showed his face in front of people from all walks of life in Jiangzhou.

At other times, the Ming government hardly accepted any entertainment, and devoted itself to state affairs as soon as he took office.

Passing by the luxurious motorcade, Zhen Shuyuan touched the high-standard name card inside the carriage, and couldn't help but click her tongue.

She lifted the curtain of the car and glanced at the sparkling water on the distant river. The early sun was shining brightly, and thousands of sails were passing by, and there was an endless stream.

What a prosperous Xunyang City.

"Liulang, did Tanlang get a big promotion this time?" Zhen Shuyuan's tone was a bit reserved.

"It's not bad, Jiangzhou Governor... Excluding King Xunyang, the nobles who have been honored here. He is the second highest in the government office of the state.

"Although he doesn't have the military power like the governor and cannot mobilize the Zhechong mansion's soldiers, but the long history is also known as the 'half thorn'. The Ming government directly leads the Six Cao Divisions, and has jurisdiction over civil affairs such as commerce and prison litigation..."

Yan Liulang just clicked on it, and didn't say much.

But the sound of Zhen Shuyuan's breathing still came from the carriage behind her, followed by her joyful tone:
"Tan Lang is really promising!"

The female relatives all smiled when they learned that the only pillar of the family was not only safe and healthy, but also ascended to the top, and their status was elevated.

Yan Liulang thought for a while, but he still didn't mention the resignation of the Ming government's resignation from the Beijing official to serve as the censor. Of course, he didn't mention the current relationship between the Ming government and the "kind and kind" king governor...

In the past half month, Ming Mansion went out early and came back late, methodically familiarizing himself with Changshi affairs. Between Huaiye Lane House and Jiangzhou Mansion Yamen, there were almost two points and one line, very regular, and his work and rest were the same as when he was in Longcheng County.

In addition, the Ming Mansion did not even go to the newly established Xunyang Palace.

There is no intersection on the surface.

Yan Liulang recalled the instructions of the Ming Mansion a few days ago.

When you take office by airborne, don't be in a hurry, and first "do less and see more".

Half an hour later, the convoy arrived at a secluded alley near the water, and stopped slowly in front of a low-key mansion.

Yan Liulang introduced: "Madam, this is Huaiye Lane, one of the oldest residential streets in Xunyang City."

Several girls including Zhen Shuyuan and Ye Weilai looked around curiously.

"This house originally belonged to the Xie family of Chenjun. When Mr. Xie, the mentor of the Ming Mansion, settled in Jiangzhou before, he learned that the Ming Mansion was coming to Jiangzhou, and invited the Ming Mansion to come and live.

"The Ming Mansion originally wanted to rent a house for the time being and buy a mansion when you come, madam, but it's hard to live up to the good intentions of Mr. Xie and Miss Xie and live here temporarily.

"By the way, Miss Xie has something to do in the Xunyang Palace today, so she will come back to visit Madam at night."

"It's okay, it's okay, I think this house is very good, why are you so polite, when Tan Lang comes back, I will enlighten him, what a fool."

Zhen Shuyuan said joyfully: "By the way, Tan Lang and Wan Wan have been recently...how is it?"

Yan Liulang coughed, didn't say much, got out of the car and helped everyone unload their luggage and take them into the house.

Then he reminded some things, seeing nothing happened, he said goodbye and left.

Before Ouyang Rong came back, Zhen Shuyuan and Banxi joyfully led the servants to tidy up the mansion.

Ye Weilai left the team alone and walked towards the back of the house.

She discovered that there was a large bamboo forest in the back house.

This Huaiye Lane mansion, decorated according to the taste of the Xie family in Chenjun, looks simple and low-key from the outside, but inside the mansion, there is something unique.

The bamboo leaves are sparse and the proud bamboos are tall and straight.

Ye Weilai vaguely saw a bamboo courtyard hut in the bamboo forest, with emerald green waterwheels and empty swings in the courtyard.

Ye Weilai brushed her silver-white hair by her ear with her little finger, and walked towards the small courtyard in the bamboo forest, as if she was quite sure that someone had chosen this house to live in.

In a few moments, in the bamboo courtyard, in front of a bamboo basket containing men's undershirts and underwear, a girl who "has returned home", with white socks and bare feet, knelt on her knees.

Waist-length silver-white hair hangs down on the carpet.

She stared at Ouyang Rong's familiar underwear for a while, and at a certain moment, the silver-haired girl suddenly lowered her head, the tip of her white nose touched the clothes in the basket, her blue eyes narrowed slightly like a cat, and she sniffed quietly.

The familiar smell of men's sweat.

After a while, Ye Weilai smiled happily, picked up the bamboo basket, hummed a little song, and walked into the courtyard.

The girl squatted by the well, lowered her head to do the laundry, her face focused...

Zhen Shuyuan, Ye Weilai and other women who arrived at Longcheng spent the whole day tidying up the mansion.

As evening fell, a weak crowned elder Shi Youyou, who had been fishing for a day, returned to the mansion. As soon as he walked in, a crowd of Yingying and Yanyan came to meet him.

After half a year, we reunited again.

　After thinking about it, I still don't write any summary chapters and ask for leave. Keep updating and write two chapters for daily transition.Xiaorong lays the groundwork slowly, and everyone watches slowly, the rhythm may be a little slower, but everyone wants to watch it more refreshingly, there should be something...or2
