Qingchuan promotion rules in the backyard

Chapter 289 Find out
Mao Mingxuan looked at Zhao Furong with some surprise, and then remembered that she was really good at riding.Speaking of it, it's better than him.After being a military officer, he is not good at riding, and Mao Tongtong can almost be said to be unable to ride.On the contrary, it was Zhao Furong, who was pretty good at riding and shooting.For a person who is good at riding a horse, it is true that riding a horse is more comfortable than riding a carriage.

As soon as Zhao Furong said the words, she subconsciously felt a little nervous.She looked at Mao Mingxuan with apprehension and expectation in her eyes.Husband, will you agree?

"I forgot, Madam's riding skills are always better than mine!" Mao Mingxuan laughed.

This smile made Zhao Furong feel relieved at once.

"But now there is only one horse. If Madam wants to ride, we have to wait until we reach the next post." Mao Mingxuan said.There is no reason for men to ride in carriages and let women ride horses.

Zhao Furong also reacted immediately, and nodded with a slightly red face.

"Madam, please be patient for another half day." Mao Mingxuan helped Zhao Furong into the carriage.

"Yes." Zhao Furong was already very happy.It is inconvenient for female relatives to show their faces in public, so riding a horse like this is already against the rules.But it was heartwarming for Mao Mingxuan to be considerate of her.

The Dragon Boat Festival is just around the corner, and the weather is getting hotter.The sun has been shining brightly for many days in the capital city, and even the wind carries a hint of dryness and heat, which makes people look forward to the arrival of rainy days.

Mao Tongtong was wearing only a thin shirt, and was standing in front of the desk and drawing.

There are not many things for an ancient woman to pass the time, and she can only try her best to enrich her life.Embroidery and painting are the things she is most interested in after coming to ancient times, and there are similarities between the two, so she wants to improve her skills.

What she is painting at the moment is a lotus flower.After the Dragon Boat Festival, summer is not far away, and it is also the season when lotus flowers are in full bloom.Under the scorching summer, the sparkling light, a green lotus leaf is dotted with blooming lotus flowers of various colors, it is a beautiful scene!
There is a pond in the garden of Baye Mansion. I wonder if there will be a pond of lotus blooming this summer.

Mao Tongtong was drawing while thinking, with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth, he didn't realize how hot it was this day.

After sketching a pink lotus, Mao Tongtong put down the pen and rubbed his sore wrist.Green Bamboo at the side came over with a bowl of sour plum soup, "Gege take a break, I've been painting for half an hour."

"Yeah." Mao Tongtong took a sip of the sour plum soup. Although it wasn't iced, it was sweet and sour, and it also relieved the fever.

After drinking the sour plum soup, Mao Tongtong moved his body a bit, and asked casually, "Did you say you would come back for dinner today?"

"No." Qing Miao replied.

"It's getting late today." Mao Tongtong said.At this time in the past, if Ba Ye didn't come back, he would send someone to say something.

"Why don't you go to the front yard and ask?" Qingzhu said.

Although Lord Belle rests in their yard almost every night, the servants in the front yard know best about Lord Belle's whereabouts.

"No need." Mao Tongtong waved his hand and said, "Let the kitchen prepare first."

Since Ba Ye didn't send anyone to tell him, he probably still wants to come back for dinner.

"Yes, servant girl, go to the kitchen and say something." Qingzhu replied.

Now that the courtyard has its own kitchen, many things are much more convenient.

At this time, Baye, who was missed by Mao Tongtong, was still in the Qianqing Palace, reporting to Kangxi about the investigation of the assassin together with the elder brother.

It has been more than half a month since I returned to Beijing, and things can be considered to have some clues.It was already discovered that the assassins came from two different factions.This speculation was confirmed after repeated investigations.

"The Han Chinese assassins should belong to the Tiandihui." Eighth Master replied: "After investigation, the Tiandihui has frequent activities in the south of the Yangtze River, and has branch helms in many places. The assassins sent this time are from Yangzhou."

The elder brother said: "The Mongol assassins were sent by the remnants of Galdan."

Kangxi frowned slightly.The two are thousands of miles apart, how did they collude together?
"Can you find out how they were connected?"

"It hasn't been found yet." Eighth Master and Eldest Brother said in unison.

It is already not easy to find out the origin of the assassin, if you want to go into more detail, I am afraid it will be difficult.

"You have to continue to investigate this matter, but you must not let go of any clues." Kangxi said.

"Yes, my son complies with the order." Eighth Master and elder brother replied.

Kangxi's meaning couldn't be more obvious, this matter is not easy to investigate, but it cannot be given up.This is to make the two of them continue to pay attention, and they will investigate when they have clues in the future.

"You have worked hard on this errand." Only then did Kangxi affirm to the two of them.

"It's not hard to share worries for Huang Ama." The two said hurriedly.

"It's getting late, you can stay and have dinner with me today." Kangxi said.

This can be regarded as a reward, Eighth Master and Eldest Brother quickly expressed their thanks.

By the time the two of them had dinner and left the palace, it was already dark.Because their residences lived in different directions, the two parted at the gate of the palace.

Mao Tongtong has been waiting for Master Ba to be here.Seeing that it was getting dark, Qingzhu and Qingmiao persuaded her several times before she let the kitchen serve dinner.

So Mao Tongtong only started eating when Ba Ye returned home.

"Huang Ama left dinner today, it's too late to inform you." Eighth Master apologized.

"It's good for me to eat dinner." Mao Tongtong didn't care.This kind of thing is also normal.Anyway, she had snacks in the afternoon, so she wasn't too hungry.

"What did you do today?" Ba Ye sat down and asked casually.

"It's not about those things." Mao Tongtong said with a smile, "I drew a picture of a lotus flower today, but it's still confiscated from the desk!"

Eighth Master was fine, so he went over to have a look.

Mao Tongtong is good at sketching, but in ancient times, she also wanted to try ink painting.Today's lotus painting is an ink painting.

"I've made progress." Ba Ye praised.We must know that Mao Tongtong did not learn ink painting for a long time.Although this will be worse than her sketching, but as long as I practice hard, I believe that the level in the future will not be bad.After all, there is a basis for painting.

"The servants also feel that they have made progress." Mao Tongtong said without any humility.

"Tomorrow and tomorrow, my master will take a rest, do you want to live in Zhuangzi for a while?" Eighth Master asked.

"Why did you suddenly have a vacation?" Mao Tongtong was surprised.Eighth Master has been very busy recently!

"The errand is done, and Ama Huang will reward you." Eighth Master laughed.

Mao Tongtong suddenly became happy, and said: "Of course! I have never been to the Zhuangzi before!"

When Ba Ye thought about it, it really was.Because I was in the palace before, it was naturally inconvenient to come out.After leaving the palace, there is no chance to go to the outside of the Great Wall.

"Then go. It's only two days or so, and you don't need to bring too many things." Ba Ye said with a smile: "Let the servants pack up now. Let's set off early tomorrow morning."

"Okay!" Mao Tongtong nodded excitedly.Farmhouse or something, she likes it best.
