The Red Mansions Across the Four Seas

Chapter 272

Li Yuan, Shangshu of the Ministry of War, and Jiang Shilang of the Ministry of Punishment received the news from Bu Kui almost at the same time.However, they couldn't believe the news was true.

When the two of them got together, they thought about it for a long time, but they couldn't come up with a way out.In the end, he decided to follow Jia Min's advice and go to see the emperor.

Anyway, Jia Min himself said so. Whether the emperor believes it or not is his own business. He just uploaded the truth according to what Jia Min said. As for deceiving the emperor, that is also Jia Min's own business.

However, the two were still very dissatisfied with Jia Min in their hearts.

As a young man, it is understandable that you are eager to make achievements, but you can't be overjoyed and exaggerate.

Now blowing the cowhide so loudly that it will be pierced one day in the future, how can you explain it?

Emperor Yuanheng read the documents brought by the two and slapped them on the dragon case.

"This Jia Min is young, so it's okay to act obediently and arrogantly. You two are very old, and you even use this kind of thing to perfuse me. It took 57 days from the imperial capital to Bukui, and there were [-] escorts on the way. Ruren, no one died along the way, do you think I'm a fool?"

"The emperor forgives the crime, but I really dare not lie to the emperor."

As soon as the two stood up, they knelt down again.

"I also don't believe that he will arrive in Bukui within two months, but this document has the seal of the station along the way, and I can't believe it. The reports from the military platforms all over the country also say that Jia Min did pass there. , Counting the days, it can be matched. The number of soldiers, horses and exiles is also in line."

"If it is said that Jia Min lied about the military situation, it is possible. But the military stations and post stations in various places will not lie. Even if Jia Min bribes one or two families, he will not ask him to bribe all of them."

This time, Emperor Yuanheng fell silent.After pondering for a while, he spoke again.

"Get up and talk. Even if it is true, tell me, how did he do it?"

Yeah, how did he do it?If I knew, wouldn't I have told you a long time ago, who would want to make you angry?
It seems that I am in a good mood today. If you are unhappy and pull out to beat the board, it will be even more unlucky.You are such an adult, who wants to find a fight by yourself?

"It must be because he traveled day and night, so he arrived early."

"Even if we travel day and night, more people should die. Why didn't one of them die?"

Yes, why didn't any of them die?You ask me, who do I ask?

"Forget it this time, go back and tell Jia Min, if there is another lie in the future, I will definitely punish you severely. Let's go."

Li Yuan and Jiang Shilang hurriedly retreated as if listening to Lun's voice.After leaving the Forbidden City, I breathed a sigh of relief.

"Oh, this Jia Huaiyuan is really disturbing. If you say you can go, why do you have to go so fast?"

"That's right, if we meet with escorting criminals in the future, we can't ask him to do it. It's icy and snowy all the way, more than 4000 miles, and none of them died. I don't believe it."

Not only Li Yuan and Jiang Shilang didn't believe it, but the people in Jia's house didn't believe it either.

The old lady and the people in Jia's house were of course very happy to receive Jia Min's letter.But to say it got there in such a short amount of time is truly mind-boggling.

However, since the letter came, it was a good thing after all.

"Brother Feng, you sent the letters to all the families, and told them to prepare the letters and the things they want to bring to the children, and send them here. When the time comes, send them to Brother Ming together." Go. Well, I don't know if they froze on the way, and they're all children, it's a pity."

"Also tell each room that if you have anything to say to Brother Min and Brother Lian, you will also write a letter, and if you want to send something, they will also be ready."

"Brother Rong's daughter-in-law and girl Bao, if you have anything to ask Brother Min about business, ask them to write it. Sigh, it's always inconvenient for Brother Min to leave. gone."

"Don't worry, old ancestor, I will take care of it."

As Wang Xifeng said, she went down to arrange things, and wiped her tears as she walked, not knowing whether it was for Jia Lian or his adulterer.

Looking at Jia Min's letter, Qin Keqing couldn't help but shed tears.

From Bukui to here, there are thousands of miles along the way, and a letter has to pass through the hands of many people, so it is naturally inconvenient to write any kind words in Jia Min's letter.It was nothing more than a general description of my itinerary on the road and the situation after arriving in Bukui.

The rest is about matters that need to be paid attention to in business.

Even so, Qin Keqing still felt warm in her heart.

Fourth Uncle Min finally arrived safely, but he suffered a lot along the way.It makes people think about it day and night.

Clutching the letter to his chest, he gradually calmed down his beating heart, and then smiled slightly, his beautiful face gradually showing a blush.

But I have to write a reply letter to Fourth Uncle Min properly.I don't know, when will I see Fourth Uncle Min next time.

However, there will always be.Uncle Min's ability is naturally unmatched by anyone, and it won't take long for him to return to his hometown.Until then, you must not miss the opportunity again.

Fourth Uncle Min, do you know that Keqing misses you every day?You know, you will know.

Thinking wildly, Qin Keqing opened Qin Zhong's letter again and read it slowly.

After reading for a while, I put away the letter, took out Jia Min's letter, and read it over and over again.

Jia Min's letter was placed in front of Baochai's case.She has read this letter with only a few hundred words countless times, and she can almost memorize it now.

The letters were full of plain words, without complaints or joy, it seemed that they were just talking about trivial things.Like the letter to Qin Keqing, these letters are mainly about business matters.

This made Baochai feel a little disappointed, even if there were a few words of complaint.

However, Baochai immediately found an excuse for Jia Min.

With such a long journey, I don't know how many people will pass through the hands of this letter. Even if Fourth Brother Min has something on his mind, it is inconvenient to say it in the letter.The fact that he can write to me proves that he still has me in his heart.

The other girls only mentioned it in their letters to their ancestors, but they wrote a special letter to me.

Brother Min, don't worry, I will wait for your return, and one day, I will make you understand what I mean.

You said that Pukui is a vast world, and I know you are a capable person, and you will definitely accomplish a lot there.Perhaps one day, Bukui will also become a prosperous place.

Thinking of this, Baochai suddenly had an idea in his heart.

If Bukui becomes a prosperous place, can I also do business there?

Once this idea comes together, I can't get rid of it anymore. No matter how I think about it, how can I feel that day will come.Although I feel that this idea is not realistic, but this idea is turning around in my heart.

If one day I come to Bukui, Brother Min will probably be very happy, right?
Thinking of this, it inevitably gave birth to a lot of wild thoughts, and felt a little shy, thinking of those embarrassing things.When I touched my face, it was a little hot.

Yedu lived in the barracks, and Zhang Decai, the squad leader who stayed behind, smiled silly as he watched his subordinates scrambling to read letters from Chief Min, Battalion Commander, and Company Commander.

After walking for so long, Chief Min and the others finally arrived at Bu Kui.

He knew that he could reach Bukui in two months, which was already the fastest speed. Except for the Fubingtuan and the Dade Dynasty army, no one could march at such a fast speed.

However, he still felt that it was too slow.So much so that these days, he spent every day in torment.

He has fully recovered from his injury, and the left-behind squad trains every day, and none of his normal duties are left behind.Although the large troops had left, they did not dare to neglect at all.

Today's left-behind squad is the Fubingtuan.If you don't look good, you will lose the face of the government corps.Chief Min handed this place over to me. If something goes wrong, he will be ashamed to see Chief Min in the future.

On the playground outside, there were bursts of slogans.That was Li An and Li Chengbin training.

One month after the Army Corps set out, Li An led a battalion to train troops here.At first Zhang Decai thought that Li An might have some new tricks, but he didn't expect that what he practiced was the way of the Fubingtuan.

Originally, Zhang Decai had a good impression of Li An, but later, he felt that Li An seemed like a thief, stealing things from the government corps.It wasn't until Li An said that he had trained in the army and would return to the army in the future, that Zhang Decai regained his good impression of Li An.

Li An came to look for Zhang Decai again, this was the third time he came to look for him, Zhang Decai wanted to hide, but it was too late.

Besides, where could he hide?Wherever he hides, Li An will find him out.

"Fat squad leader, look for it again, is it where you dropped my letter?"

"Li An, didn't I tell you everything, there is no letter from you. Chief Min is so busy, how can he have the time to write letters one by one? Besides, didn't you see the letter just now? Chief Min is in the letter Didn’t I mention you too, I told you to train well, and discuss with Li Chengbin more if you have anything to do.”

Princess Chang'an went out silently and stood at the door, looking into the distance.

On the [-]th day of the first lunar month, she brought Li Chengbin, Lichun and others excitedly to Yeduju, and brought exquisite food made by the Imperial Dining Room to give Jia Min and others a farewell party.

Unexpectedly, when she arrived, there was only one left-behind squad left in the barracks, and the army had already set out on the eighth day of the first lunar month.

This made her feel both regretful and disappointed.While feeling lost, he couldn't help being a little annoyed.

This damn old fourth Jia just left quietly without even saying hello, and didn't take Ben Gong seriously at all.

Hmph, when you come back, I will ask Father to chop off your head.

I received a letter from Jia Min today, but just like the fat squad leader, she just mentioned herself in her heart, telling herself to train well, not to be willful, and not to spend money recklessly, which made her feel a little disappointed again.

When did I become willful?When did you waste your money?Now that the letter is here, can't you write me a letter?What about that piece of paper?That bit of pen and ink?

Seeing Li An standing there depressed, Zhang Decai couldn't help but feel sorry for him again.

Afterwards, Li An was seen rushing into the team angrily, and kicked a soldier hard on the buttocks.

"You idiots, you rookies, you can't even walk well. Get out and run fifty laps."

Zhang Decai understood that Li An was in a bad mood, and he was venting his anger on these rookies.
