MTL - The Reborn Noble Daughter-Chapter 438 head work
Chapter 438 Chapter 438. First achievement
“Your Majesty is wise!”
Several people were killed by the imperial envoy, which shows the seriousness of the situation.
So many people have been implicated, and if anyone in the court dares to jump out to intercede for him now, I am afraid that he will be the first to bring a sacrificial knife.
So, we can only praise His Majesty and then keep our mouths shut.
Just try not to involve yourself in this matter.
"Bai Aiqing and Feng Aiqing have worked hard this time. You two should take the lead in clearing up the corruption case in the Water Transport Department. Bai Aiqing is still providing disaster relief in the southwest. He will wait until all the dust settles before awarding the reward. As for Feng Aiqing, your eldest brother also worked for He worked hard for the country and unfortunately died in Qingzhou. Everyone in the Feng family is a good person. According to my decree, your eldest brother will be named the minister of the Ministry of Industry and given a plaque of loyalty and righteousness. You will be appointed as the prefect of Jinling City. When you take office after the year, you must make Jinling the official. The city is properly managed by me!"
As soon as these words came out, all the courtiers were stunned.
From the county magistrate of Jinling City to the governor, this is a four-level jump.
A mere seventh-grade official has now become a third-grade official. This news is no less than that so many people were arrested in the Water Transport Department.
Feng Jinlin was actually surprised when he heard this, but the arrow had to be fired. It was not a good thing for him to refuse at this moment.
Anyway, he has made a mess in Jinling City, and it is only natural to "clean up" the mess at this time.
Just to take office after the new year, this incident set off alarm bells in his heart.
It was just approaching the Mid-Autumn Festival, and there were still several months before the New Year's Day. What was he doing in Dongdu City during these few months?
Is it possible that you have other plans for him?
Everything else is easy to say, but the most fearful thing is arranging a marriage for him, so the marriage proposal to the Xu family must be arranged as soon as possible.
But the news of the eldest brother's "death" has just spread, so if you rush to propose marriage at this time, isn't it to make excuses for others?
There was a bit of a dilemma for a while.
After the court, everyone looked at Feng Jinlin with great enthusiasm. Those who had daughters of the right age at home wanted to send them to the Feng family immediately. If there were no daughters of the right age at home, they would immediately start looking for a suitable one from the clan. Come.
This Feng Jinlin has been in trouble before, but he has never flirted with women or lingered on the place of fireworks, so they were a little unclear about Feng Jinlin's preferences for a while.
On the other hand, Mr. Xu Ge looked at Bai Xiang with crooked eyebrows and said happily.
“Look, I’ll be having your family’s wedding wine again soon.”
After saying this, I suddenly remembered what the Feng family couple had said before. The smiles were still on their faces, but their eyes began to scan seriously at the ministers around them who were trying to get married, and they felt a lot of disdain in their hearts.
His granddaughter also came back yesterday, and he wanted to ask why she came with the Feng brothers and sisters.
Xu family, Mingyue is talking to Mrs. Xu at the moment.
She left home at the beginning of the year and went to Wenjin Academy. It has been more than half a year since she finally got back.
Mid-Autumn Festival is originally the festival of reunion, but now that she is back, the three of them, grandfather and grandson, are truly reunited.
While the two were talking, they saw Elder Xu coming back from the court.
When I got home yesterday, it was quite dark.
He was afraid that his granddaughter would not have a good rest, so Mr. Xu Ge did not disturb her too much. Naturally, he wanted to talk to her properly when he came back today.
Grandpa, whom I haven’t seen for a long time, seems to be in a much stronger spirit.
However, his body has always been well maintained, so Xu Mingyue left Dongdu City with confidence to pursue his own world.
“Mingyue has met her grandfather.”
"Get up, get up. You came back too late yesterday. I was afraid it would affect your rest, so I forgot to ask, how long can you come back this time?"
"My granddaughter has been transferred to Wenjin Academy in Jinling City for more than a month. I guess she will have to go back after the festival. The students there are still waiting for classes."
Comes and goes in a hurry, if Xu Mingyue were a man, he would be less worried.
Pianpian is his daughter's family, so he couldn't bear to travel so far.
“Hey, if I had known, I wouldn’t have allowed you to go to the academy. It’s so far away that it’s hard to even see you.”
Mrs. Xu is getting old. After losing her two sons, her only hope is her beloved granddaughter. If Xu Gelao hadn't stayed in Dongdu City, she would have wanted to follow him to Jinling.
That place is the most suitable place to live. As they are as old as they are, they just want to live a peaceful and peaceful life and be able to be with their family all the time.
It’s just that the things in the court are still making Mr. Xu Ge feel uneasy, otherwise he should have retired and returned to his hometown long ago.
Xu Mingyue patted the back of Mrs. Xu's hand comfortingly and said.
“Grandma, if you have nothing to do, you can come with me and play for a few months before coming back.”
“Really? It doesn’t affect you?”
"What's the good influence? My granddaughter's classes are not available every day. Besides, the climate in Jiangnan is good for people. Don't you always feel uncomfortable in your throat? Maybe it will be better if you go to Jinling City."
This is true, places near the sea are mostly humid.
The weather in Dongdu City is incomparable.
Mrs. Xu was very tempted, but Mr. Xu started blowing his beard and staring.
"You two, grandson and grandson, have made a good plan. Just leave me here alone. If I fall down in the night and don't even have anyone to look after me, just wait until I come back to collect the body for me."
“Bah, bah, bah, what are you talking about, you bad old man?”
Since Mr. Xu Ge entered Dongdu City, he rarely heard his wife scolding him for being a bad old man.
On weekdays, I am either in front of or behind my master. The ladies in Dongdu City have followed the rules, but they are boring.
The old man's words reminded him of many things that happened when the two of them were still young.
I can’t help but sigh that the years are passing by so quickly.
When he looked at Xu Mingyue, he also knew that if he didn't say something now, he might not have the chance to say it in the future.
So he started to ask insinuatingly.
“Mingyue, I heard that you came back from this trip with the Feng family brother and sister. Did you meet them on the way?”
"No, we came from Jinling City together."
“Oh, that’s quite a coincidence.”
Xu Mingyue knew exactly what Mr. Xu Ge wanted to ask.
Ever since she agreed to give Feng Er a try, she has never hidden it.
This is true for outsiders, and even more so for family members.
So he straightened his body and spoke to the two elders.
"Grandpa and grandma are here, and my granddaughter and the second brother of the Feng family are in love. I hope that the two elders can help us."
When she said this, Mrs. Xu was quite surprised.
She didn’t know Feng Jinlin very well, but she had met Feng Jinyao and Mrs. Feng a few times, and they seemed to behave in a well-behaved manner.
It was just how the two of them got to the point where they were in love with each other before they spoke to them.
Then I thought, it’s not good to be far away.
I don’t even know what my granddaughter is thinking, let alone in the future.
On the other hand, Mr. Xu Ge felt like he was being plotted by everyone in the Feng family.
Feng Hai and his wife first let him know some news, and then Feng Jinlin was very quick and took down his granddaughter in a hurry.
