Yan Yan Yugui

Chapter 231
Xiao Qian's desk was full of official documents, and Lu Zhaonan also helped to deal with it, and he couldn't help complaining: "Originally, there were enough trivial matters in the yamen, but now there are more affairs in the medical department, I said you should just hire a master." , let Master handle these chores for you."

"Stop talking nonsense, read it quickly, there are more important things to do." Xiao Qian said.

Lu Zhaonan complained: "What else is important? Let me tell you, I have been dizzy from reading official documents these days, and I have to go to the isolation center outside the city every day. I am exhausted and can't do anything. Don't count on me."

Xiao Qian raised his eyes: "Jing Yuan has inherited the title of Marquis of Ding'an. The imperial decree came to the Marquis of Ding'an today. Don't you go to congratulate? That's fine. I'll tell you that you are busy when the time comes."

"Wait...Jing Yuan inherited the title? Didn't you say that you have to wait for the weak crown to inherit?" Lu Zhaonan was surprised.

Xiao Qian calmly said: "Early inheritance and late inheritance is not a matter of father's words."

In fact, the father felt that Yan Yan had made great contributions, and it would be unreasonable not to reward him well, but Yan Yan was already the princess, so he gave the reward to Jing Yuan.

Lu Zhaonan became interested: "Anyway, this is a great event. Congratulations are nothing but celebrations."

"So, get to work."

"Okay! You should have said it earlier. It would be enough for me to be motivated. Maybe it will be over by now." Lu Zhaonan laughed.

Guan Sheng brought Feng Hua to find Xiao Qian.

"My lord, Miss Feng is here."

Xiao Qian put down Wen Gong in his hand.

Feng Hua took out the portrait painted by the young lady to Xiao Qian: "Your Highness, the young lady did not tell the truth earlier that Chunlan was infected with smallpox because someone deliberately spread it, and left a silk handkerchief stained with smallpox pulp on the seat. The portrait of this person has been drawn, please help find this person, Your Highness."

"According to Chunlan's description, this woman is likely to make a living in Huajie and Liuxiang."

Lu Zhaonan leaned over and took a look: "You look pretty good!"

Xiao Qian squinted at him and called Guan Sheng: "Guan Sheng, take the portrait and take a few brothers to the Flower Street and Liu Lane in the capital to have a look, and you must find him."

Guan Sheng took the portrait and glanced at it.

"what?"

Xiao Qian raised his eyebrows slightly: "What? Do you know each other?"

Guan Sheng hesitated and said: "This person looks familiar, adults should think about it."

Guan Sheng looked left and right, and suddenly slapped his forehead: "I just remembered, this person is the Begonia girl from Drunken Red Mansion, and there is a mole on her ear, it can't be wrong."

Lu Zhaonan couldn't help laughing, and teased: "Guan Sheng, you can do it, you are so precious to the girls in Huajie and Liuxiang, and you even pay attention to a mole."

Old Guan Sheng blushed: "It's just a coincidence, this Miss Haitang and the former pawn... oh, you know, last year someone caused trouble in the drunken red building, and the former pawn asked the young one to take someone to deal with it. The young one has no other skills. , but recognize people... If you have met someone who has talked once, you will definitely remember it when you are young."

"Let's go to Zuihonglou." Xiao Qian got up.

"Hey, Xiao Qian, we still have to read the official document." Lu Zhaonan protested.

Xiao Qian said: "The official document is handed over to you, I have to go and see this matter myself."

Dare to deal with Tongyuan's black hand downstairs, you're tired of it!
"Hey...Xiao Qian, Master Xiao, I can't finish reading alone..."

Xiao Qian has already left with Guan Sheng and Feng Hua.

Lu Zhaonan resented, as long as it was related to Yan Yan, Xiao Qian was very nervous, hey... he, a good friend, can only stand aside!

When I arrived at Zuihonglou, I found out that Miss Haitang had left Zuihonglou more than a month ago.

"Then do you know where she is going?" Xiao Qian asked the bustard.

The old bustard said: "She redeemed herself and left with a scholar. This dead girl actually saved so much private money secretly, but she should still be in the capital. The scholar came to catch the exam. It wasn't because of the epidemic. It's delayed!"

"What's the name of that scholar?"

The old bustard thought for a while: "I don't know the name, but I heard Haitang call him Mr. Lu. He is in his early twenties and looks pretty handsome."

"Where are you from?"

"I don't know, the accent sounds like someone from the south."

A group of people came out of Zuihonglou, Feng Hua said: "I seriously doubt that the money Haitang redeemed her body was her reward for harming Tongyuanlou."

The corner of Xiao Qian's mouth slanted, need I say more?
"My lord, what should we do now? Because of the epidemic, the scholars who came to the capital to take the exam have not yet registered, and they can't check the roster," Guan Sheng said.

Xiao Qian said: "There is no need to go to the Ministry of Rites to check the roster."

"Because of the epidemic, the households in Shuntian Prefecture have checked all the population in the capital, especially those from outside. Let's go back to the Yamen."

Xiao Qian returned to the yamen, and called all the people from the sixth room to the household room: "From now on, you guys don't have to do anything else, just check for me all the foreigners whose surname is Lu between [-] and [-]." Scholar."

Ding'an Hou Mansion was full of joy, the old lady read the imperial decree over and over again, and she was so happy that she couldn't close her mouth from ear to ear.

"I didn't expect it, I didn't expect it, our Jing Yuan is already Lord Hou."

Lin Zhongkun was sour in his heart, but he said: "It is the custom in our Dasheng Dynasty that we usually have to be young and weak to inherit the title. There is no one like Jing Yuan. It can only be said that the emperor's grace is mighty."

Lin Jingyuan scratched his head embarrassingly: "I'm under my sister's favor."

The old lady smiled and said, "Yan Yan, she is our family's lucky star."

Lin Zhongkun felt even more sour, what is our family's lucky star?Have you all been exposed to Yan Yan's light?She knew how to ask for a reward for her younger brother, but she didn't want to get other people. If Yan Yan is a generalist, if she speaks kindly for his second uncle in front of the emperor, maybe he will be promoted.

It's good now, the big family and the family alone are honored.

"Isn't it? Ever since Yan Yan came out of filial piety, it's been a smooth journey. First, he was named the king and county lord, and then the county lord. Now even Jing Yuan has become a lord. Jing Yuan, you will be a lord from now on. You have to show the style of Master Hou." Zhou said happily.

She is happy when the eldest room is proud.

Lin Shuqi joked, "Jing Yuan, you will have to cover Uncle from now on."

"Uncle, what are you talking about, we are all one family." Lin Jingyuan was still not used to it. He felt that with the hat of Lord Hou, everyone looked at him differently. They used to treat him like a child.

Outside the house, Lin Zhenzhen said depressedly: "Why are some people lucky enough to get what we can't get even if we work hard without doing anything."

Think about the eldest brother, the second brother, who have studied hard for so many years, just to be named on the gold list one day, but so what?Even the title of the gold list can only be mixed from the bottom of the official rank.

Lin Jingwen was in a gloomy mood. He knew that Jing Yuan would inherit the title sooner or later, but he always believed that he would be capable only if he won it by himself. But today, when the imperial decree came, he was still hit. Zhen Zhen was right, Jing Yuan is fate, there are too many injustices in this world.
