The Emperor's Man [Transmigration Book]

Now Chen Qing is considered a loner, planning to settle down in Jiangnan.Moreover, there is the old house left by Chen Defa here, so Chen Qing doesn't need to find another place to live.

After making up his mind, Changji was sent to Danyang to pick up Shunzi and Xiao Guilin. Now only Chen Qing and the few servants he just bought are left in this small courtyard.Facing this dilapidated old house, I really can't stand it.

Chen Qing went back to the room and took out a wooden box wrapped in red silk from the cabinet.It was left by Changji when he left, and now all their remaining belongings are in it.Uncover the red silk cloth above, and open the small lock.There was only a small stack of 50 taels of silver bills in it, and the total was 500 taels after counting.

There is no need to worry about eating and drinking in Taifu, but Chen Qing has no place to spend money.Looking at the 500 taels of bank notes in his hand, Chen Qing didn't know whether it was more or less in this dynasty.I plan to renovate this old house, I looked around today and found that several roofs are broken, if it rains, it will not be a water curtain hole.The furniture in each house is better in my own house, and those in other houses are either missing arms or broken legs.I don't know if Changji moved all the good ones into his house.

And the yard also needs a rest.In this way, piles of piles are all pressed on the money, which is a lot of money when you think about it.

Now I only have these 500 taels on hand. If the house is repaired, I don't know how much will be left.

Although the newly bought servants signed a contract of sale, they were all locals.Chen Qing went out, pulled a servant and asked, "Do you know which craftsman here is good?"

The servant was dark and thin, and he was carrying water to the tank in the backyard, when Chen Qing called him over.Standing in front of Chen Qing somewhat cautiously, his eyes could not help but glance at his boss's ivory white face from time to time.

Hearing the owner's question, the servant replied honestly: "There is a craftsman named Guanban in the town who does very good work, but the cost is higher than other houses."

"Oh, do you know where his shop is?"

"Yes, I have been there once."

"Well, you take me there now."

Chen Qing stuffed the 500 tael bills in his arms, and followed the servant to the town.

The shop is not very big, but the cost is really high.Chen Qing talked about the parts of the old house that needed to be repaired, but unexpectedly, the craftsman stretched out four fingers: "You are not repairing, it is simply building a new building for you. Without this amount, it can't be taken down."

"40 taels?" Chen Qing looked at the four rough fingers.

The craftsman looked at Chen Qing again, he was indeed dressed like a young master, and there was a servant behind him, it didn't look like he came here to make a joke.Then he explained: "It's 400 taels."

Hearing this, Chen Qing felt chest tightness and shortness of breath, and unconsciously touched the place on his chest where the 500 taels of silver bill was placed. This... the prices in ancient times were not cheap.

In the end, under the bargaining price of Chen Qingru, the farm aunt, the transaction was made at a price of 380 taels.The craftsman named Guan Ban said that he would definitely repair the house within half a month.

You get what you pay for, but within a few days, all the tiles on the roof of the small courtyard house were replaced with new ones, and the damaged parts were repaired.When the Guanban finished repairing the house and painted it with new paint, Changji and Shunzi had already rushed over from Danyang.

When Shunzi and Xiao Guilin saw their young master, tears filled their eyes immediately: "Master..."

The young master went to the south of the Yangtze River in mourning, and only brought Changji with him, leaving Shunzi and Xiao Guilin in the Danyang Inn.Seeing that the young master had not returned after many days, Shunzi couldn't help but feel a little uneasy. Could it be that the young master doesn't want him and Little Guilin anymore.

I waited patiently for a few more days, and finally couldn't bear it anymore. When I was planning to pack my bags and go to Jiangnan, Changji came.In this way, the two of them are at ease.

"Your young master is doing well, what are you doing so sad." When Chen Qing saw Shunzi and Xiao Guilin, he also missed them very much in his heart, but he didn't show it on his face.

"We just miss the young master too much."

"En." Chen Qing responded, seeing the dusty appearance of the three of them, and said, "Go and put away your things and wash up. I must be exhausted from the journey these days."

With the arrival of several people from Changji, Chen Qing couldn't help but feel a lot more relaxed, and the things in the house were left to them to take care of.In less than half a month, the old house has really taken on a new look.The newly renovated roof, the red-painted wooden gate, the newly paved gravel road and the newly planted fruit trees in the courtyard.

Looking at all this, Chen Qing was filled with joy, and felt that the 300 taels of money was worth it.

But he didn't know that the repaired house used almost all his belongings, and he was taken back to Danyang before he lived in it for a day.

Speaking of this day, when the renovation of the house was completed, Chen Qing planned to invite Shunzi and the others to the restaurant to celebrate, but unexpectedly, an unexpected visitor came outside the house.

The man was dressed in black and stood outside the door holding a steed in his hand.After Shunzi saw off Guan Ban and left, the man stepped forward and asked, "Little brother, may I ask if this mansion belongs to Mr. Chen Qing?"

Shunzi looked for the sound, and saw a man with delicate features.

"Yes, who are you? Why did you come to see my young master?"

When the man was questioned by Shunzi, he still had a calm expression on his face, neither happy nor angry: "My father asked me to ask when Mr. Chen will return to Danyang."

Shunzi: "Oh, then you can go back and answer, my young master doesn't plan to go back to Danyang."

"Can I let you meet Mr. Chen?"

"Then you wait here for a while." Shunzi looked at the man and thought to himself what a weirdo.It was the first time I saw someone who only moved his mouth when he spoke, his face was as stiff as a mask, his skin and flesh didn't move, and he had no expression at all.

After returning to the house, he told Chen Qing about this matter, Chen Qing also had a look of doubt, where did he know any master in Danyang.Unable to figure out why, Chen Qing asked Shunzi to bring the person in so that he could ask for clarification.

"In the next thirteen, I met Mr. Chen."

Chen Qingyuan listened to Shunzi's words, and said that this man is handsome, but unfortunately he has a facial paralysis, and he can't move when he speaks.Chen Qingyuan didn't believe it, but now seeing that Thirteen really only moved his mouth when he was speaking, while the other parts seemed to be stiff.Although tall and handsome, but the first time I saw it, I felt very weird.

"Who is your master?" Chen Qingyuan wondered if it was Rong Liang, but heard Shunzi say that Thirteen called his master his master.In Chongqi, there are only two kinds of servants who call their masters lords, one is older, and the other is someone with high position and authority.

Chen Qing had an answer in his heart.

Thirteen didn't answer, and stretched out his hand to take out something from his bosom and handed it to Chen Qing.Looking at the bright yellow token in his hand, he finally confirmed his thoughts.

"My father asked me to ask, when Mr. Chen will return to Danyang, he will be waiting for you there." Seeing Chen Qing's expression, Shisan knew who he had guessed, so he asked directly.

Chen Qing knew that that person just wanted the map of the area.I wanted to say that I would draw it here before sending it, but when I looked back, the map of the area was now in the palace, and I didn't bring it with me.

Now Chen Qing is in a bit of trouble, if he returns to Danyang, the track will coincide with the book again, then will he be like Chen Defa, unable to escape the fateful track, and the final ending will be like the book.

But without turning back, he glanced at the man with facial paralysis in front of him, as if he had some skills.

Seeing Chen Qing's hesitation, he thought of what His Majesty said when he came, and then said: "My grandfather also said that if you don't come back, he will come to pick you up in person, but he has a bad temper."

threaten!This is simply a blatant threat.Chen Qing was thinking about the countermeasures, wondering whether he should live in another place, but the world is so big, could it be the king's land, where can he hide?

……

Sitting in the carriage back to Danyang, it only took half a day, Chen Qing sighed dozens of times.Changji and Xiaoguilin, who were watching from the side, were also frowning.

On the way, Chen Qing dragged his way through the town for a day, citing motion sickness and back pain.But even so, several people still arrived at Danyang City five days later.

Thirteen had the token to clear the customs, and went straight to the palace without any hindrance.Chen Qing lifted the curtain and looked at the sky with the afterglow outside, and discussed with Thirteen who was driving: "It's getting late, why not enter the palace tomorrow?"

Thirteen looked at Chen Qing expressionlessly: "Master asked me to bring you back within three days, and now it has been two days overdue, if you delay, I'm afraid I will be unhappy."

"He actually set a date? Why didn't you tell me earlier." On the road, he fumbled to stop the time for returning, and told the emperor why he was going to confront him.

If he was offended, according to the emperor's nature of vengeance, although he would not take this little life for the sake of the geographical map, but he would have to wear shoes or something, that would be really uncomfortable.

Just as Chen Qing was worried, the carriage slowly drove into the Xuanwu Gate.After walking through the towering palace walls and the long imperial road, you will arrive at Yongding Gate.When they got here, except for the emperor, no one was allowed to ride a horse or a sedan chair.

The carriage stopped at the gate of Yongding, Chen Qing got out of the carriage and saw a familiar face, it was the eunuch surnamed Liu.

Liu Chaoqin had been waiting for a long time. Seeing Chen Qing get off the carriage, he went up to meet him: "Mr. Chen is here with the slaves. Lord Long Live is waiting for you."

This really leaves no room for breathing.It's just that he doesn't know what the emperor wants to see him at this time.

Since Liu Chaoqin appeared, Shisan with facial paralysis left in the carriage.Chen Qing followed Liu Chaoqin, pondering the emperor's intentions in his heart, watching the white whisk in Liu Chaoqin's hand shaking back and forth in mid-air, and tentatively asked, "Elder-in-law, I don't know if the Holy Majesty is calling for something at this time?"

Liu Chaoqin glanced at Chen Qing, and replied with a smile: "This servant doesn't know, the Holy One just ordered the servant to wait for you here."

Seeing Liu Chaoqin's smiling fox appearance, he probably couldn't make any words out of it.Chen Qing simply kept silent and quietly followed behind Liu Chaoqin, but the soldiers came to cover them up.There is still some use for him, he will not kill himself at this time.
