Chapter 734

"Master, there is a letter from Beijing." Aoki came in and reported.

"Biography." Du Jinning called.

Soon, two dusty people walked in behind Liu Daqing.

"Master Liu, is that you?" Du Jinning stood up in surprise when he saw the man in front of him.

The visitor was none other than Liu Gao, the nurse of the Qi family, who had previously taught Du Jinning Kung Fu.

And behind Liu Gao was a guard next to Zhuang Yue, named Liao Ming.

"Why are you two here together?" She asked strangely.

The two looked at each other, and Liu Gao said, "We met on the way when we were hitting the tip at noon, so we walked together."

Liao Ming has some skills, Zhuang Yuezao bought him when he was in Gui Province, and he was by his side to help with errands and odd jobs. Liu Gao knew him.

Du Jinning smiled and asked the two to sit down, and then ordered Aoki: "Have someone prepare hot water, and then prepare meals."

Liu Gao thanked him, took out a letter from his pocket, and handed it to Du Jinning: "A letter from my young master."

"Thank you, Master Liu." Du Jinning took it and looked at Liao Ming, who also quickly handed over Zhuang Yue's letter.

"Anyway, the soonest you can go back to the capital is tomorrow, so take a good rest now." Du Jinning said.

As she said that, she asked Liu Gao: "The conditions here are poor, why don't I ask someone to send you back to the city to rest after dinner?"

"Don't be so troublesome." Liu Gao waved his hand, "We will go wherever you are. If you go back to the city tonight, we will go back with you; if you live here, we will live here together."

As he said that, he added: "I will go back to the capital with Liao Ming in the morning. My young master is anxious to see the reply. I think it's the same with Shopkeeper Zhuang."

Liao Ming nodded.

"Okay, let's live here." Du Jinning said, then turned to tell Aoki, "Ask someone to clean up two rooms for Master Liu and Liao Ming."

The yard on the Zhuangzi where she lives now is not big and the house is dilapidated, but the number of rooms is still enough, so it's no problem to give Liu Gao and Liao Mingteng two rooms.

Seeing the two of them leaving with Aoki, Du Jinning opened Qi Muyuan's letter and read it.

Although Qi Muyuan never came to visit Du Jinning, the two corresponded frequently.We communicated about once every five or six days, and at least every ten days when it was inconvenient.In the ancient times when transportation was inconvenient, their communication frequency was quite out of the ordinary.

Du Jinning couldn't help but smile when he saw Qi Muyuan blaming himself for reporting the good news instead of the bad news.

Worried that Qi Muyuan ran to Runzhou recklessly, and missed the important matter entrusted to him by the emperor, and did not dare to tell Qi Muyuan about Du Jinning's anger in Runzhou.That's why Qi Muyuan said this.

In the letter, Qi Muyuan said that the busy work some time ago has come to an end.So five days later, he planned to take a day off from the emperor, plus a day off, he planned to go to Runzhou to visit Du Jinning.In addition, the new magistrate and fellow magistrate will arrive in the next day, and I hope she can make official arrangements in advance.The letter also attached the information of the new magistrate and fellow magistrates.

When Du Jinning saw Zhizhou's name, his brows were raised high.

Guan Jiatian.

Isn't this the same name?
Guan Lehe's son is called "Guan Jia what" according to his seniority, which is beyond his choice.But the last word was up to him, so he made a fool of himself and directly used the four characters "Heaven and Earth Xuanhuang" as the last word.

In other words, the eldest is Guan Jiatian, the second is Guan Jiadi, the third is Guan Jiaxuan, and the fourth is Guan Jiahuang.

Du Jinning felt that only the third child's name was normal, and everything else was weird.

She laughed at Guan Lehe at the time, saying that he chose his name too casually and too lazy, so he just used the first sentence of "Thousand Characters" and called it "Heaven and Earth", and she was not afraid of breaking the taboo of the emperor.

At that time, Guan Lehe also plausibly said a great deal, citing scriptures and classics, meaning that if the emperor misunderstood these names, he would have no articles, even the "Thousand Characters" and had to go back to Taixue to re-read the book.

For such a teacher, Du Jinning is also helpless.

Seeing the three words "Guan Jiatian" now, she recalled the scene back then. While missing her teacher, she couldn't help suspecting that this person was the elder brother she had never met.

Given how Zhao Hu and Qi Bokun took care of her, this was really possible.

And Qi Muyuan wished to explain to his fellow-confessed Tao Huahui the eighteenth generation of his ancestors.But for this "Guan Jiatian", except for his name, he didn't mention anything else.

Qi Muyuan is getting more and more skinny now.

Du Jinning smiled, folded Qi Muyuan's letter and put it aside, then opened Zhuang Yue's letter and read it.

When Cao Hongshou and the Chen family impeached Du Jinning last time, Zhuang Yue was reminded by Qi Muyuan that emergency measures were quickly taken in Beijing and sent a letter to ask Du Jinning's opinion. Du Jinning highly affirmed his actions.

This time, Zhuang Yue reported that "Chang Tian Ji" had started to sell, and the flower basket business of the flower shop had returned to normal, and nothing happened.Now that the newspaper has been typeset, a printed newspaper is attached for her to read.

Zhuang Yue said in the letter that he had shown this newspaper to Qi Bokun, and Qi Bokun implicitly stated that the emperor felt that the newspaper was well run.

Du Jinning put down the letter, opened the newspaper, read it up and down, and nodded.

The layout is concise and generous, the content is substantial and peaceful, which meets her requirements, and the printed handwriting is also very clear - the current printing workshop is newly opened by Du Jinning, using the method provided by her, and Zhuang Yue asked the craftsmen to experiment countless times , and finally fired out of the typesetting of the lead type.

Even the corrugated dividing line was printed very clearly on the newspaper, which made Du Jinning feel very close.

She picked up her pen and wrote replies to Qi Muyuan and Zhuang Yue respectively.

……

On the evening of the second day when Liu Gao and Liao Ming were sent away, Du Jinning received the new prefect Guan Jiatian and fellow prefect Tao Huahui at the gate of the city.

Du Jinning had never met Guan Jiatian, but he recognized him at a glance.

Guan Jiatian is 29 years old this year, he doesn't look like his father Guan Lehe, but he looks a lot like his mother Lu Shi.

He was admitted as a Jinshi at the age of 19, and then he was released as a county magistrate; his promotion in the officialdom was neither fast nor slow. Before he came to Runzhou to be a magistrate, he was a fellow magistrate in a state in Jin Province, and now he has been promoted to a higher level.

Tongzhi Tao Huahui is in his 30s, with an ordinary appearance, but clear eyes.When they entered the city, they got off the carriage and chatted and laughed with Guan Jiatian, with neither humble nor overbearing attitude.

He was transferred from Lu Province. He was originally a county magistrate, and he was rated as excellent for two consecutive years.When he resigned this time, the people sent him a Wanmin umbrella, which shows that he is very popular in the local area and he is a good official.

Seeing that the two entered the city, Du Jinning went up to greet them, and cupped his hands at them: "Master Guan, Master Tao, Du Jinning has been waiting here for a long time."

The two were stunned for a moment, then raised their heads and looked at Du Jinning carefully.

After seeing Du Jinning's appearance clearly, Guan Jiatian frowned: "You are Du Jinning?"

Du Jinning nodded and said: "Exactly." But he was puzzled in his heart: Senior brother doesn't seem to like her very much?

 I went back to my mother's house today, and spent more time with the old man, so the update is late, sorry.That's it for today, see you tomorrow.
