The wind is blowing wildly, the sky is dark, so terrible...

"Brother Hengjiu, congratulations on returning triumphantly!"

"Brother Hengjiu, I haven't seen each other for many days, and my style is even more prosperous in the past."

"Haha, Brother Heng Jiu, the last time we met was three years ago, right?"

"Brother Hengjiu..."

As Hong Chengchou and Wu Sangui and his group arrived, the big guys who had been waiting here for a long time instantly surrounded him.

Hong Chengchou, riding a strong black horse, quickly turned over and got off the horse, smiling and greeting everyone, but tears could no longer be controlled in his eyes.

In fact, Hong Chengchou arrived in Tongzhou at noon yesterday, and Wu Sangui came earlier and arrived the day before yesterday. However, for this process, we naturally have to prepare time for Beijing.

Even though Hong Chengchou had already thought a lot during this period, he expected that he would encounter such a scene after entering Beijing and was prepared. However, when this moment came, thousands of prosperity bloomed in an instant, even Hong Chengchou's cunning was really a little overwhelmed.

Learn civil and martial arts and sell them to the imperial family.

What is the purpose of studying for so many years and staying in the officialdom for so many years? Isn’t it just for this moment?!!!

It's so cool!

It's so cool!

"Duke Hong is mighty!"

"Du Hong, you are the hero of our Ming Dynasty!"

"Duke Hong, I kowtowed to you..."

As Hong Chengchou finished greetings with the important officials and nobles, the representatives of the people who had been waiting for a long time finally spoke not far away.

Soon, there was a dry man in the crowd. He saw that he was a hard-working man. With the support of his son and grandson, Zhan Zhan came here with a bowl of wine. "Du Hong, please drink this bowl of wine! The whole family of the old man thanked you!"

Listening to the old man's familiar Liaodong accent, Hong Chengchou could no longer control himself, and tears burst out from his eyes. He took the wine bowl and nodded heavily to the old man: "Brother-in-law, thank you!"

As he said that, Hong Chengchou put the wine bowl beside his mouth, raised his neck, and drank the bowl of strong wine directly.

"good!"

"Duke Hong is mighty!"

"Duke Hong is mighty!!"

Soon, the surroundings had turned into a sea of ​​joy.

Hong Chengchou burst into tears and waved to everyone frequently, feeling that his life had never been as happy as it was at this time, and he had reached the highest highlight of his life.

Although Xu Changqing, Cao Bianjiao, Wang Pu, Yang Guozhu and others were not far from Hong Chengchou, at this time, Xu Changqing and the others had no chance to speak.

"Be good, a real man, please do this! I have to do this when I return to Datong."

Beside him, Wang Pu suddenly muttered in a low voice.

Xu Changqing also came back to his senses and looked at Lao Cao, Yang Guozhu and others. Sure enough, everyone was almost the same, and their eyes were filled with unconcealed envy.

Xu Changqing couldn't help but smile at the corner of his mouth.

Formalism is indeed a waste of money, but I have to say that if this kind of thing is used well, it is definitely a powerful tool!

It’s not that there are no talents in the Ming Dynasty. It’s a pity that there are too many intelligences and talents, and these people are useless in the right place.

...

The welcome ceremony outside Guangqu Gate lasted for half an hour, and the scene was finally put on. Only then did the crowd enter the city like stars holding the moon, holding Hong Chengchou.

Xu Changqing also knew at this time that the court had prepared a grand welcoming banquet for Hong Chengchou in the Yingbin Building in Chongwen Gate.

However, this banquet is probably the night before Hong Chengchou should immediately enter the palace to meet the saint.

The ceremony outside the city may be official guidance, but after entering the city, there were still countless people waiting by the roadside just to see Hong Chengchou's true face. It was even more fanatical than the fans in later generations who saw celebrities.

Xu Changqing did not enjoy this atmosphere when he first entered Beijing.

Xu Changqing soon came to his senses.

The butt determines the head.

After all, Xu Changqing's identity is not enough and he is not a literati, so he naturally has to deal with it in a low-key manner.

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

The large group of people came to Yingbin Tower in a thick and thin way. Just as Xu Changqing had guessed before, the imperial edict was already waiting here. Hong Chengchou took a shower and changed his clothes simply and went straight to the palace to meet the saint.

Xu Changqing and his friends were fine at this time. They came to the exquisite yards in groups of three or three to rest, and could drink some wine and eat some side dishes.

Those big guys are the same.

It should be noted that they went to court this morning, and they must be more tired than Xu Changqing and the others.

Through the slightly obscure chat among the crowd just now, Xu Changqing also analyzed something. If it was a formal procedure, tonight's dinner should be the official venue of the court. However, the foundation behind the Yingbin Building is very deep and the facilities are better, so everyone is more willing to come here.

Everyone has their own circle.

Soon, Xu Changqing, Lao Cao, Wang Pu, Yang Guozhu, Li Fuming and others came to a small courtyard.

As for Tang Tong, Bai Guangen and others, even if they bought their heads from Xu Changqing and could get rid of their crimes, they did not really make any contributions. The court may appease them later, but they would not think about coming to the capital. This scene has been lost.

When he came to this exquisite courtyard, he sat down. Looking at the aggressive Cao Bianjiao, Xu Changqing tried to avoid it without thinking. He hurriedly smiled and poured a glass of wine for Lao Cao: "Uncle Cao, I haven't seen each other for a few days, I miss you very much. Let's go first?"

However, Xu Changqing drank with a smile, but Lao Cao had no intention of moving the wine glass. He gave Xu Changqing a wink and stood up and left.

Seeing Lao Cao's domineering appearance, Wang Pu couldn't help but laugh and gloating that he couldn't hide.

Although the two beauties are good, the consequences are definitely not something that ordinary people can bear.

Xu Changqing was too lazy to pay attention to Wang Pu, so he quickly followed Lao Cao.

When he arrived at the back garden of the courtyard, Lao Cao glared at Xu Changqing with a grudge and whispered: "Aren't you a little bastard usually very clever? Ah? Why are you so impulsive when you arrive in Beijing? Do you know, I almost scared you to death! Who do you expect to save you like this? Ah? You are almost done with the Li and Wu families, what do you want them to think about?"

Although Lao Cao was aggressive and spitting on Xu Changqing's face, Xu Changqing was not angry and kept laughing and admitting his mistakes. He felt that his heart was warm.

Even though Lao Cao's political vision is not very good, he still does not understand the profound meaning of his "self-deprecating", this kind of concern is by no means a false alarm.

If there is another person in this world who can let Xu Changqing give him his back, it is undoubtedly the veteran in front of him.

He cursed and squirted Xu Changqing, and Lao Cao also relieved a lot of anger and said weakly: "You little bastard have hard wings now, so I can't control it anymore, but I have to warn you that you must think twice before doing anything in the future! This officialdom is more dangerous than the battlefield!"

Looking at Lao Cao's heartfelt words, Xu Changqing hurriedly smiled and gave Lao Cao a thumbs up: "Uncle Cao, you are right. I must be careful about this matter, and there will be no next time."

"Do you want the next time?"

"No, no, Uncle Cao, missed the tongue, missed the tongue."

"Okay, don't pretend to be pitiful to me. It's late. Don't make any mistakes at the banquet."

"Uncle Cao, please keep your heart in your stomach. I promise to eat, drink and only look at it, and never say it."

...

After relieving Lao Cao's anger, Xu Changqing also relaxed a lot. He was about to take a closer look at this exquisite garden to see if there was anything to learn from. After that, he went to Shandong and did the same thing himself.

At this time, Wang Pu suddenly rushed over with sweat on his forehead, and whispered in a hurry: "Brother, he really encountered a ghost. Someone came from the Duke Ding Mansion, and I want you to come over and see him."

Xu Changqing couldn't help but frowned.

really.

Dingguo Duke Xu Yunzhen is here today. It turns out that those who come are not good, and those who are good don’t come there!

"Brother, it's okay. Can our prince eat me at the feet of this dignified emperor?"

Xu Changqing smiled and hugged Wang Pu's shoulder, "Brother, I'll come when I go."

"Ai?"

What else Wang Pu wants to say

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

, Xu Changqing has already left quickly.

Wang Pu came to his senses for a moment and hurried over to greet Lao Cao for discussion.

Although this guy is full of problems, he is still unambiguous when he is really on the sidelines. This is also his biggest advantage.

Xu Changqing came to the front yard, and there were already servants from the Duke Dingguo Mansion waiting here.

These servants did not dare to take Xu Changqing's favor. They were the leader of a clean and calm housekeeper in his forties and smiled and said, "Young Master Changqing, you have been reverent for your name for a long time. Unfortunately, you have been busy with your affairs. Only today will you have the chance to see you. Look?"

When Xu Changqing heard the name of the housekeeper, he laughed: "Okay, lead the way."

"Good come."

After leaving the courtyard and walking around several corridors, the butler led Xu Changqing to a deeper, quieter and elegant courtyard.

Under the green vines inside, there was an exquisite stone table. A middle-aged man in purple robe was drinking tea in a sloppy manner. It was Xu Yunzhen, the Duke of Dingguo!

Behind him, there was a familiar young man in white standing respectfully, and it was Xu Shengyuan, the "Fourth Master" who had met Xu Changqing.

Seeing Xu Changqing coming, Xu Yunzhen's eyes lit up, but he was not in a hurry to speak, but just looked at Xu Changqing with a faint smile.
