Chapter 693, grab the limelight

Mid-February is the death day of Granny Gu, so Daohua did not return to Beijing with the Yan family, but waited for the death day to go to the capital with Gu Jian slowly.

In ancient times, there were not many opportunities to travel far. Daohua cherished this trip very much. He didn't rush to Beijing, but stopped and wandered around with Gu Jian, as if he were traveling.

On the third day after Daohua and Gu Jian left, a group of majestic cavalry came to Taohua Village.

Xiao Yeyang got off his horse, and then ran to the top of Taohua Mountain. When he rushed into Taohua Temple, there were already people in the house empty, and only two villagers were cleaning.

Learning that Daohua and Gu Jian had only been away for two days, Xiao Yeyang regretted that he couldn't do it. After putting incense on Granny Gu, he quickly took his hands and chased people. It's a pity that Daohua and Gu Jian weren't met until the meeting with the army returning to Beijing with the class.

The Yan family and his party came to Beijing in mid-February.

Yan Zhigao came to Beijing to live once and knew where his house was. Before anyone came to pick him up, he took his family and went straight to Dongjiao Street.

When they reached the gate of Yanfu, the Yan Wenxiu and his wife who received the news were already waiting at the gate.

Mrs. Li helped the old lady Yan to get out of the carriage, and looked at the environment around the mansion. Both mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were quite satisfied.

The old lady Yan said with a smile: "Although it is not as big as Ningmen Mansion, it is a lot more magnificent."

Ms. Li smiled and said: “The Tianjia is naturally more valuable than other places.” After that, she took the old lady into the mansion, and both of them paid no attention to tiredness and visited the backyard enthusiastically.

Compared with the backyard of the Ningmen Mansion, the yard in the capital city is much less, and there are many people in the family. Han Xinran dare not allocate the yard at will. He only cleaned up the old lady’s yard and the main yard, and the others were waiting. Mrs. Li came to arrange.

Ms. Li didn’t hesitate and cared about it, and she left the most exquisite yard directly to her daughter. You know, their family can get this house, but it was drenched in the light of their daughter.

As for Yan Yishuang, Yan Yihuan, and Yan Yile, because there are not many yards, they live in the same yard.

For this, Yan Yishuang is naturally dissatisfied, but her dissatisfaction is more directed at Yan Yihuan and Yan Yile sisters.

Yan Yi sat in the upper room angrily, watching the maid tidy up her things, and glanced at the busy figure in the side room, feeling a little panicked in her heart.

If the second and fourth sisters do not come to the capital, the eldest sister will definitely not be in the same yard with her, so she can have a separate yard.

Now I can only live in the same yard with others, and everyone is watching the entrance and exit, which is too annoying!

Just as the female relatives were packing things, Yan Zhigao took a rest for two days, and then hurriedly reported to the household department.

Xie Xingteng, Shangshu from the Ministry of Households, saw Yan Zhigao, and did not embarrass him, but he was not very enthusiastic. He gave him a copy of the idle errands and asked him to take him down.

Yan Zhigao knew that he would be ostracized when he first came to the Huhu, but he didn't care much, so he got acquainted with the Huhu after receiving the errand.

As soon as ?? and the others left, Sun Chang, another servant of the household department, walked in and looked at the household book Shangshu incomprehensibly: "My lord, Yan Zhigao is a person appointed by the emperor, will you do this?"

Sun Chang was pulled up by Hubu Shangshu with one hand. Regarding his right-hand man, Hubu Shangshu will still reveal some gossip.

Hubu Shangshu smiled and shook his head: "Although the emperor values ??the Yan family, it is not easy for the Yan family to gain a foothold in the capital. Do you know that the achievements made by Yan Zhigao in Ningmen Mansion are actually one year old? He should have been transferred to Beijing before, but he just didn't. Why do you think this is?"

Sun Chang suddenly appeared: "Someone is suppressing the Yan family?"

Hubei Shangshu smiled mysteriously: “Being an official in Beijing is more than just a strong ability to handle errands. It’s really hard to say whether the Yan family can gain a foothold in Beijing.”

Sun Chang's eyes flickered, and it seems that the identity of the person who suppressed the Yan family is not low.

On the first day of March, the main street of the capital was crowded with people watching the class and returning to the court. Everyone wanted to witness the heroes who defended the country.

At the beginning of ??Sishi (9:00), the orderly army, led by Chu Gang, walked into the city gate with a solemn expression.

As soon as the army entered the door, it was warmly welcomed by the people.

Behind the army, Jin Lingwei muttered: "The war in Northern Xinjiang can be quelled so quickly. Our Jinlingwei has made great efforts, but now, the limelight has been taken away by the army."

Xue Xiangchen turned his head to look at Xiao Yeyang next to him: "What do you think?"

Xiao Yeyang replied calmly: "Subordinates listen to the commander's instructions."

Xue Xiangchen snorted in his heart. He didn't usually see this guy so obedient. Then he laughed and said loudly: "The glory that belongs to Jin Lingwei can't be taken away. Everyone listens to the order, integrates the team, and walks in front of me. Go to see the emperor."

Hearing this, all Jin Lingwei smiled and drove the horses in line one by one, then raised their whips in a neat manner and rode their horses into the gate of the city.

Because of the great victory of this battle, the emperor led the hundreds of civil and military officials to personally greet the army of the class returning to the court at the gate of the palace.

In this regard, Chu Gang and the soldiers were all excited and excited.

The gate of the palace.

Chu Gang and a few generals got off their horses. Just as they were about to give a salute like the emperor, they heard the neat and sonorous sound of horseshoes coming from behind.

In an instant, everyone, including the emperor, looked in the direction of the sound.

Seeing Jin Lingwei, who was wearing a uniform uniform and riding a tall horse, described as killing, all officials looked sideways, and even though they were far away, everyone felt a strong sense of oppression.

Seeing the incoming person, the emperor couldn't help but curled up his mouth, especially seeing Chu Gang and the generals' unhappy face that was robbed of the limelight, the smile on their faces deepened.

After a while, Jin Lingwei came to the gate of the palace.

All Jin Lingwei stopped the horse at almost the same time. Xue Xiangchen dismounted the horse first, followed by the three young men behind him who made it difficult for everyone to ignore. After that, the rest of Jin Lingwei dismounted the horse uniformly.

The momentum is orderly and courageous.

Xue Xiangchen knelt in front of the emperor on one knee, and the other Jin Lingwei followed suit: "The emperor, the minister does not humiliate his mission, and is back with Jin Lingwei!"

The loud voice rang loudly above the palace gate.

The emperor raised his hand to signal Jin Lingwei to get up, praised Xue Xiangchen, and then his eyes fell on Xiao Yeyang behind him.

Looking at his resolute face and extraordinary nephew, the emperor was sincerely happy, took a step forward, and patted Xiao Yeyang on the shoulder: "Good boy, I didn't embarrass me."

Xiao Yeyang's eyes instantly flashed joy. Seeing Xue Xiangchen who was looking straight at this side, he said with a rare humility: "It's all commanders who teach well."

The emperor looked at Xue Xiangchen, who was grinning, and looked at Chu Gang and others who had been robbed of the limelight. His face was stinky, and he laughed and said, "You are all meritorious officials. The palace has prepared a celebration banquet. Come into the palace."

said, turned around and walked towards the palace gate first, and signaled Xiao Yeyang to follow him.

Xue Xiangchen, Chu Gang and others hurriedly followed.
