Chapter 409 Investigating the Northwest
Mingren left the capital the next afternoon and returned to Quanzhou. He bought [-] dans of spices from the Xiangyao Bureau in the morning, and he was impatient to return to Quanzhou. However, before he left, he was forced by his parents to thank him. I went home and met the little lady of Xie's family.

Whether Ming Ren is satisfied or not is not clear to everyone, but it is not important. The blind date is mainly for the woman to look at the man. It is the second step after the proposal. If the woman is not satisfied, the marriage will be terminated. If the woman is satisfied, then things are easy to handle.

It is said that the young lady of the Xie family is quite satisfied with Mingren, and just like that, the two families began to go through the engagement process. These are arranged by the parents, and Mingren only needs to come back when they get married.

Two days later, Fan Ning and his wife moved to their father-in-law's house. Fan Ning and Xie Jiuling signed a gardening and repair agreement, a total of [-] guan.

This morning, all the officials had left for the morning court, and Fan Ning was about to rush back to the Jianyuan, but he heard someone calling him from behind.

Fan Ning turned his head and saw Deputy Prime Minister Jia Changchao walking towards him with a smile.

Although Fan Ning was very disgusted with this despicable guy, he really couldn't offend this person, at least on the surface.

Fan Ning quickly stepped forward to salute, "Mr. Jia, is there something for me?"

Jia Changchao is famous for his smiling face. In the court, he always has a smiling face, which is very deceptive. Many people who don't know his details think he is a kind and generous elder.

Jia Changchao laughed and said, "I heard from my son-in-law that Fan Zhiyuan has a good personal relationship with him. How about you come to my residence for a light meal tomorrow?"

This invitation is not a good one. Fan Ning hesitated and said: "I may go out to investigate the public situation in the next two days. I am not in the capital. I can only apologize for Jia Xianggong's kindness."

Fan Ning did not lie, he did go out to investigate, this is the rule, one of the main functions of the Admonition Court is to collect public opinion, sitting in the official room all day, he is not a qualified admonition official, Fan Ning has passed the familiarization period, then The plan to go out for research for the first time has already been arranged in the schedule.

Originally, he could wait two days before leaving, but with Jia Changchao's invitation, Fan Ning could only advance the plan.

Jia Changchao was stunned for a moment, and immediately smiled again, "Hehe! This is the first investigation of Fan Zhiyuan! I don't know where to go?"

"I don't know about this yet, I hope it will be closer and come back soon."

Fan Ning really didn't know where he was going for his first survey. After the plan was reported to the emperor, the emperor would give a reply. The emperor would write a place name under the reply, and the first trip to the doctor was decided by the emperor.

Jia Changchao said with a smile: "The first inspection tour will not be too close, Fan Zhiyuan must be mentally prepared!"

"Thank you, Mr. Jia, for your reminder. I'm already mentally prepared."

Fanning bowed to him, turned around and walked away quickly.

When Fan Ning walked away, Jia Changchao's face turned cold, and he snorted, "Shame on you!"

He also turned around and walked towards Zhizheng Hall.

Fan Ning returned to Zuo Jianyuan, and Li Weizhen followed him in as soon as he entered the official room, "Zhiyuan, the research plan has been approved."

"Where are you going?" Fanning asked anxiously.

"Go to Yan'an Mansion!"

"Where?" Fanning froze for a moment, he felt he didn't hear clearly.

Li Weizhen smiled wryly, "To be precise, I went to investigate the frontier army."

He handed over the approved plan to Fan Ning. The plan was drafted by Fan Ning. He proposed three research places, Mizhou, Mingzhou, and Quanzhou, all of which are overseas trade states. As a result, Emperor Zhao Zhen did not adopt them. Instead, a line of words was written at the bottom, "Zhunzou, it is recommended to go to Suide Army in Yan'an Prefecture".

Fan Ning's head is a bit big, and it will take a month to go back and forth to the frontier, and once he investigates the frontier army, it is impossible to go to one place and walk around, it will take at least another month. moon.

"Where did the former Bao Zhiyuan go?" Fan Ning asked.

"Bao Zhiyuan went to Zhending Mansion in Hebei, but he was actually a frontier army. The emperor was very concerned about the morale of the army. Zhang Zhiyuan of You Jianyuan also went to the border of Hedong at that time. Later, there was civil unrest in Bashu, so he changed his way to Bashu. "

Fan Ning nodded, "Okay! Since the emperor has made arrangements, we can only follow the order. I am going to leave the day after tomorrow, and I will trouble you with the daily affairs of Zuo Jianyuan."

"Humble job will definitely do its best."

Fan Ning pondered for a moment and asked again: "Is there any progress in the matter of Wen Xianggong's impeachment?"

Li Weizhen shook his head, "Same as last time, there is no news after handing it in. It seems that the emperor is very cautious and did not start this matter lightly."

Fan Ning knew what Li Weizhen meant by starting this matter. Impeachment is a process, including receiving clues, impeachment requests, impeachment investigations, and the final impeachment report. Of course, impeachment is not so complicated for everyone. It is only for senior officials. , especially for a right-hand minister like Wen Yanbo, the impeachment process must go through.

Li Weizhen's "initiating this matter" is the second step. Asking for instructions on impeachment, Zhang Sheng received impeachment clues, Wen Yanbo sent a piece of Shu brocade to Concubine Zhang Gui, and thus obtained the position of the University of Zhaowenguan. As for the impeachment request, the third step is to start the impeachment investigation. If the clues are indeed true, it is the fourth step to submit the impeachment report.

Li Weizhen said again: "It is estimated that Zhang Guifei is involved, so the officials are very cautious."

Fan Ning didn't think so. Concubine Zhang Gui would definitely not have any influence, otherwise would Zhang Yaozuo allow Zhang Sheng to be impeached?
Zhao Zhen was cautious because Wen Yanbo was involved. Jia Changchao had just returned to the prime minister and replaced Wen Yanbo, which would cause shocks in the court.

However, Fan Ning can't control this matter. He will leave early the morning after tomorrow, and he has to make some preparations today and tomorrow.

At noon, Fan Ning came to Ouyang Qian's residence again. Since Ouyang Qian settled down, he didn't come many times. On the one hand, he was a little ashamed of his wife Zhu Pei, and on the other hand, he had not found a good solution. There is no way, but Ouyang Qian has clearly regarded herself as her reliance.

Fan Ning didn't know that his impulsive deep kiss that day was almost like losing her virginity to Ouyang Qian.

Fan Ning knocked on the door, "Sister Qian, it's me!"

Ouyang Qian opened the door happily, "I was thinking that you might come for lunch, and you did."

The smell of vegetables was wafting in the yard, and Fan Ning said with a smile, "Have you started cooking by yourself?"

"It's been several days since I started cooking, and you haven't come!" Ouyang Qian gave him a resentful look.

"Where's A Tao?"

Fanning saw that the little maid did not seem to be in the yard.

Her sister just gave birth, and I asked her to go and have a look, and she might not be back until the afternoon.

Ouyang Qian was a little shy, turned around and entered the room quickly, Fan Ning suddenly understood, this is Ouyang Qian creating conditions for herself!

Fan Ning's heart fluttered, he hugged her from behind, kissed her beautiful neck lightly, and his hands began to be dishonest.

"Don't! Don't! Let's eat!"

"No! I want to eat Sister Qian first."

Fan Ning simply picked her up and walked towards the inner room. The bedroom door was closed, and there were bursts of affectionate voices from inside.
Looking at the red dots on the white silk, Fan Ning was in a daze for a while. It was the first time for Sister Qian, so she was really confused. Although Sister Qian had married several times, she never got married!

Ouyang Qian was very calm, her heart had been promised to Fan Ning long ago, and this day would come sooner or later, she tidied up her dress, put away a piece of white silk, and said with a soft smile: "The food is probably cold, I'm going to warm it up."

"Yes!" Fanning agreed.

Ouyang Qian suddenly lowered her head and kissed him deeply on the face, smiled sweetly, and then went out slowly. After all, it was the first time for her to walk, and she seemed a little awkward when walking.

"Sister Qian, there's no need to go to the heat. It's hot, so it's no problem to eat something cold."

"That's all right! I'll make you sencha."

Fan Ning put on his clothes and went to the outside room. There were four dishes, one soup and two bowls of rice on the table.

Fan Ning picked up the bowl and ate slowly, he was still reminiscing about the scene just now, reminiscing about Ouyang Qian's plump and white body, this woman officially belonged to him from today.

At this time, Ouyang Qian came in with a cup of tea, and said with a smile, "Daddy used to buy this dragon tea a few catties. It's like a treasure. It's really fragrant."

"Dragon tea is not as fragrant as Sister Qian!" Fan Ning replied with a smile.

"You scoundrel!" Ouyang Qian blushed pretty, and gave him a faint look.

Fan Ning's heart fluttered, and he didn't want to eat anymore, so he half hugged and half hugged Ouyang Qian to the back room.

After scoring twice, Fan Ning was finally satisfied and started eating, but Ouyang Qian was too shy to come out.

"Sister Qian, come out! I have something important to tell you."

After a while, Ouyang Qian dawdled out, her pretty face was as red as a persimmon, and she exuded the fragrance of a mature woman.

"What important thing?"

"Sister Qian, I'm going to inspect the Yan'an Mansion the day after tomorrow. As an admonishing doctor, I'm going to visit for the first time, and it may take two months."

"Two months!"

A look of disappointment appeared on Ouyang Qian's face, have you been going for so long?
"The main reason is that it is too far away, and it will take a month to go back and forth."

"All right then! Take care of yourself."

"I'm fine, I'm worried about you."

"Watch out for me, this yard is my name, no one will drive me away, and you have given me the money to live, I like this kind of peaceful life, without having to look at that woman's face."

"Does your father know?"

Ouyang Qian nodded, "I asked A Tao to send a note back, telling Daddy that I am well taken care of, Daddy should be relieved."

Fan Ning took out a bag of 500 taels of silver and put it on the table, "You keep this bag of silver!"

"Didn't you give me the jade pendant? When I need it, I will go get the silver."

"Jade pendant is jade pendant. You keep this money and go buy some dresses and books you like. If you are bored by yourself, you can read books."

"OK then!"

Ouyang Qian smiled sweetly, "Now I spend your money, I feel at ease."

"Whose money will it cost?" Fanning asked with a smile.

Ouyang Qian lowered her head shyly, and whispered, "Spend your husband's money."
