    Chapter 89

    "Listen to the good news first."

    Du Shaoxuan didn't sell his ties, and said directly, "Zeng Changsheng became the general banner, and his brothers all transferred to his banner."

    Zeng Changsheng is Lord Zeng, he returned to the capital to do some activities and changed his identity.

    Fifty people were established as the general banner, and seven officials were appointed.

    Mu Wanqing was stunned, "Can a low-ranking member be transferred to a military household?"

    The household registrations of Daqi residents are divided into military, civilian, business, craftsman, and low-ranking, etc., and it is not easy to switch between industries.

    That is to say, military households have served as soldiers for generations, and the descendants of yamen servants are also yamen servants.

    However, there are also special cases, like people can do business, and if they exceed a certain limit, they will be automatically converted into business registration.

    The yamen is considered a low-ranking member, so really don't know if it can be turned into a military household.

    Du Shaoxuan nodded slightly, "Yes, civilians can also become military households, but military households cannot be converted into civilians and serve as soldiers for generations."

    For a while, Mu Wanqing didn't know what to say. Being a soldier was really hard, but at the border, only being a soldier could make a difference.

    After all, in border towns, the military comes first.

    Whether it is a good thing or not, that can only be a matter of opinion.

    "What about the bad news?"

    Du Shaoxuan glanced at her, "The emperor asked me to ask you for cement, and I'll use it to repair the city wall."

    Mu Wanqing couldn't help laughing, "What kind of bad news is this, no problem, you can have as many as you want, the recipe can be given to you, everyone can save trouble."

    Jiang Tongzhi couldn't help raising his head to look at her more, she was so generous, it was rare.

    He asked her for it before, but she refused directly, saying that he had already caused an accident and didn't want to do it again.

    As soon as Du Shaoxuan spoke, she gave it without hesitation.

    Therefore, people are different.

    A smile flashed in Du Shaoxuan's eyes, and he admired the atmosphere, "What do you want?"

    Mu Wanqing has everything now, not short of money, and her career is off to a good start. The only thing is... "I want justice."

    Du Shaoxuan looked at her deeply, "Okay."

    He didn't stay long, and left in a hurry when he was full. Before leaving, Mu Wanqing packed a lot of food for him.

    "If you have something to send a letter to Du's house, I'm usually not in the house, but the housekeeper will inform me that it will take a while."

    He stayed in the barracks all year round, training soldiers, and leading teams out for inspections, sometimes for several days.

    Mu Wanqing nodded slightly, "Okay."

    Du Fu

    The house was full of people, and the clansmen rushed to hear the news, and the two married daughters also came.

    The whole house was waiting anxiously, and Mrs. Du looked at the door absentmindedly.

    "Go and have a look."

    "Yes." The servants came and went, returning every once in a while to report.

    Every time she said she didn't see anyone, this made Mrs. Du anxious, why so slow?

    Miss Du persuaded softly, "Mother, don't worry, since my brother has entered the city safely, he will be able to see him soon."

    Mrs. Du's eyes were full of her son, "He's been away for a few months and thousands of miles. I'm worried day and night, and it's hard to sleep and eat, hey."

    I don't know if I'm hungry, thirsty, and have a safe journey? Having trouble?

    When children are away from home, parents are never at ease.

    Second Miss Du was also comforting, but Zhao Yifan, the second son-in-law sitting beside her, frowned slightly, "Mother-in-law, Zedi is no longer a child, you, don't worry about it."

    Mrs. Du disliked it and turned her head to ignore it. She couldn't blame her for being more partial to her eldest son-in-law.

    I really don't know why the second daughter chose a scholar, and it is useless to be a scholar.

    Zhao Yifan's face was ugly, he stretched out a hand, Miss Du Er smiled very softly, "Brother Fan, drink tea."

    She was born as a doorman, and she has seen martial arts since childhood. When she saw the gentle and elegant scholar, she was gentle and considerate, and she was immediately fascinated.

    Zhao Yifan sighed softly in his heart, this is the disadvantage of marrying a high-class woman, the Yue family has no one in their eyes, and their attitude is too arrogant.

    Fortunately, his wife is a gentle and virtuous.

    The clansmen looked sideways and couldn't help shaking their heads, this guy was out of tune with their family, and don't know why the second lady lost her head, and she had to marry if she wanted to live or die.

    Everyone waited and waited, and they couldn't sit still.

    Zhao Yifan's stomach was hungry, but Du Shaoxuan couldn't have a seat until Du Shaoxuan came back.

    "Why haven't you come back? I reported back to the city an hour ago. Even if I walk on my feet, it's time to go. He's not going to play, right?"

    Mrs. Du was immediately annoyed, "Nonsense, my son is not the kind of child who can't understand clearly."

    Zhao Yifan didn't know how to look at people's faces, and was still muttering, "Ze Di is too self-willed, who can't get married at his age? As far as he is single, he is the only male in the Du family, and he spreads branches and leaves for the Du family. It's his responsibility, mother-in-law, don't condone him too much, it won't sound good if you drag it on."

    Mrs. Du is also anxious about her son's marriage, but if she can say this, others can't.

    Which onion are you? Calling you second brother-in-law, do you really think of yourself as a senior?

    "Why doesn't it sound good? My son has big ambitions and is different from those ordinary people."

    Well, this second son-in-law is a common man, and he is unbearable.

    Zhao Yifan felt that the Yue family was too accustomed to children, which was not good, "Mother-in-law, great ambitions do not conflict with marrying a wife and having children..."

    Before he could finish speaking, Mrs. Du turned her head to look at her eldest daughter, "Why hasn't the eldest son-in-law come yet? Didn't find anyone else?"

    Miss Du glanced at her brother-in-law Tie Qing's face, and the corners of her mouth were slightly raised, "He is busy with official business. If he knows that Zedi is back, he will definitely come back."

    A sour voice sounded, "That's not necessarily true, the eldest brother-in-law is very busy."

    It was Zhao Yifan, he felt that he had the talent of Jingwei and the ability to govern a country, and he was the material to be a high official.

    To let him be a local chief official in Xiliang would be considered a condescending talent.

    However, the Du family did not look down on him at all, and only assigned him a teaching post.

    What does the oracle do? He is the instructor of the county school! An eighth-rank sesame official!

    He felt humiliated, and as a result, Du Shuai only said one sentence, as long as you defeat ten soldiers, you will be a hundred households.

    How could he be a weak scholar with no power?

    Miss Du Er handed over the teacup again, "Brother Fan, drink tea."

    Miss Du looked in her eyes and pursed her lips slightly, one willing to fight and the other willing to suffer, what else can others say?

    As long as the Du family doesn't fall, Zhao Yifan has to hold his wife. Are you dissatisfied? hold on!

    No one paid any attention to Zhao Yifan, and talked to himself.

    After a while, the servant ran in with a happy face, "The young master is back."

    Madam Du was ecstatic, and led a group of people out to greet her, and saw a tall and thin figure walking quickly from a distance.

    Her eyes were red, "Ze'er, you're finally back."

    Du Shaoxuan knelt down in front of her with a plop, "Mother, the unfilial son is back."

    Mrs. Du pulled her son up, her face full of distress, "It's good to come back, thin, dark, I have prepared your favorite meal for you, and I will clean up the dust for you."

    Du Shaoxuan smiled, "Thank you mother, mother, I brought you something delicious, you can try it."

    Mrs. Du was very surprised, her son still has such a delicate mind?

    It's not that he is not filial, but that he is careless, the trivial matters of life are taken care of by the people around him, and his mind is full of wars.

    I will bring gifts to family when go out, but these are all arranged by followers. The gifts are all beautiful and expensive, but they are all uniform.

    "Then I must try it."

    Du Shaoxuan greeted everyone with gifts, and everyone had gifts. Mrs. Du and the two sisters were jewelry, the two brothers-in-law were fine wines, and the others were Beijing specialties.

    Everyone has a share, everyone is happy, only Zhao Yifan looks disgusted, "These are not very practical, I want a few books that the great Confucian has read."

    There will be great Confucian reading marks on the book, which is what readers dream of.

    "You don't like these?" Du Shaoxuan took the things back and handed them to Jiang Tongzhi. He was beautiful, and he still wanted the book marked by the great scholar. Is that something that money can buy? Have to sell favors and spend time and energy.

    "Brother-in-law, I'll give it to you. I want you to accept some things that others don't want."

    He doesn't care whether Zhao Yifan is embarrassed or not, if he dares to slap him in the face, he will make the other party unable to step down.

    Zhao Yifan's face flushed red, ashamed and angry.

    Jiang Tongzhi held back his smile, "I like it very much."

    Mrs. Du took the initiative to change the subject, "What do you mean by eating?"

    The table was full of food, and Miss Mu was extremely curious, "What are these? I've never seen them before."

    Du Shaoxuan casually reported, "This is milk tea, this is bowl cake, sesame paste, double skin milk..."

    Some he had never eaten before, but after hearing Mu Wanqing say it once, he wrote it down.

    He took the initiative to pass the double skin milk to his mother. Mrs. Du liked the sweet taste and was full of praise.

    "Where did this come from?"

    "I bought it from Nancheng Snack Street." Du Shaoxuan said very casually, "It's new today, and there are a lot of food to eat. Some of them should be eaten while it's hot. I'll accompany you to try them next time."

    Madam Du was stunned for a moment, "Ze'er, do you know that Mu Wanqing?"

    Du Shaoxuan smiled and said, "I know, we are friends. She is a very interesting, talented and capable girl. You will definitely like it when you see it."

    Yes, his attitude is clear, exaggerated and exaggerated, this is not his usual style.

    The Du clan people see it in their eyes, as long as they are not stupid, they will not offend anyone.

    Even if Mrs. Du was not happy, she couldn't say anything, which ruined her son's happiness.

    Only Zhao Yifan was ignorant, "Ze Di, you have a noble status, how can you get involved with such an unprofessional exiled female prisoner, this will humiliate the lintel of the Du family, and you go to the woman as soon as you come back, but let the family Wait for you……"

    Du Shaoxuan stepped on him unreasonably, "I just went to issue an imperial decree, especially for Mu Wanqing. She was pardoned through her own efforts. From today, she is a good citizen, and the Mu family is also pardoned because of her."

    "By the way, the emperor also rewarded her with a hundred taels of gold as a reward."

    Everyone was amazed, that girl actually has such ability, too powerful, can't be offended, can't be offended.

    Zhao Yifan didn't believe it, "How hard she can work as a woman, it's clearly Zedi's plea to the emperor..."

    Du Shaoxuan couldn't bear it any longer, so he shut up if he couldn't speak, "Zhao Yifan, you're insulting me and the emperor. You thought about it before you spoke."

    "I think you should read more books on sages and sages at home, and don't go out if you have nothing to do. Come and see off."

    The servant immediately came to see the guest, Zhao Yifan was shy and angry, and there was a trace of fear.

    Miss Du Er explained softly, "Ze Di, your second brother-in-law is unintentional..."

    "It doesn't matter if I believe it or not, it doesn't matter if the emperor believes it or not." When Du Shaoxuan said this, everyone's expressions changed.

    Zhao Yifan uttered nonsense, but don't implicate them.

    Zhao Yifan and his wife were invited away, everyone was relieved, and they had a lively meal, and the guests were very happy.

    A few days later, the mighty Li Baihu and his wife were arrested and brought to justice on the charge of bribing the officials for sabotage in the snack street and killing one person.

    As soon as the news came out, the people of Liangcheng were shocked.
