There are two days until the festival, and bursts of firecrackers are heard from time to time in the capital. Just when people are immersed in the joyful atmosphere, an inexplicable fire breaks out at the residence of Zhu Tianjiang, the Dafeng security envoy.
.The north wind was blowing, and the fire took advantage of the wind and burned more than 20 main houses at once. A good-looking mansion was almost burned into rubble.
Many officials learned the news and sent people to Zhu's Mansion to check the situation. Prince Jing and Guo Tianxin received the news and hurried over. However, when they arrived in front of Zhu's Mansion, they were shocked by the scene in front of them.
Stayed.
The situation in Zhu's Mansion was already miserable, especially the main courtyard where Zhu Tianjiang lived, which was almost burned into ruins. You didn't even need to go in, you could see how miserable it was inside by looking at the billowing smoke from the outside.
Zhu Daguan stood in a car at the door and looked at his mansion burned like this. He thought to himself that I had a lot of money, otherwise I would have been heartbroken to death. The so-called clever plan Yelu Douha gave him was to let Zhu Tianjiang take control of the house.
His house burned down, and his family moved to the General's Mansion to live for a while.
Although this move is a little damaging, it is still a solution. After all, Zhu Tianjiang is a member of the Guo family. He has no place to live and goes to the Guo family. No one can fault him. As long as he lives in the same mansion, Lin Feng wants to see me.
It's much easier for people. Anyway, Guo Tianxin can't guard the old lady day and night. The other servants don't dare to say anything because Yingzi is here.
Hong Baichao looked at the mansion with flames blazing into the sky, tears of distress almost came down his face, "What a crime~ It's simply a crime!" Hong Baichao muttered in his mouth, he really didn't understand why Mr. Zhu Daguan did this.
Zhu Yi, Xia Qing and others stood behind Zhu Tianjiang. They didn't care about burning down a mansion. Anyway, they would follow Zhu Tianjiang out of the capital after the spring began. Sooner or later, this mansion would be 'investigated and confiscated'.
"Sir, Prince Jing and General Guo are here." Zhu Er walked over and whispered.
Zhu Tianjiang looked up and saw two tall horses coming from the street, one on the left and the other on the right. The Prince Jing's Mansion and the General's Mansion were about the same distance from Zhu Tianjiang's mansion. Zhu Tianjiang sent someone to notify the two mansions. Guo Tianxin and Prince Jing were almost there.
Came here at the same time.
Prince Jing frowned and wondered why he was so careless. The wind was strong in winter and the fire was no small matter.
Prince Jing and Guo Tianxin looked at each other, sighed, dismounted and walked towards Zhu Tianjiang.
"Prince Jing is a thousand years old, father-in-law, why are you two here in person? It's nothing serious, it's just that the house burned down. Fortunately, everyone is safe." Zhu Tianjiang said with a sad expression, cupping his hands.
"Heaven falls, I can see the thick smoke billowing from here even in the house. What's the reason? How could I be so careless?" Guo Tianxin asked seriously.
"Father-in-law, isn't it the festival? Someone in the house set off some fireworks, which caused a fire. Alas! What should I do for such a big festival?" Zhu Tianjiang sighed with a grimace.
As Zhu Tianjiang was talking, he saw Daniel running out of the gate carrying an iron rod. When he saw Prince Jing and Guo Tianxin, Daniel walked over happily.
"Prince Jing, General, our house is almost burned down." Dan Niu bared his teeth happily.
"What are you laughing at?" Prince Jing looked at Daniel and asked strangely.
Zhu Tianjiang was so angry that his teeth were almost broken. He was so paralyzed that his house was burned down and he was still happy to do it. He couldn't even pretend.
"Your Majesty, he is overly sad. He couldn't help crying just now." Zhu Tianjiang quickly explained.
After Zhu Tianjiang finished speaking, he turned around and glared. Daniel also felt that he was smiling out of place, so he quickly stopped smiling. This guy had just lit fires from inside, and he was as happy as a child seeing candy. Someone else's house
They can only set off a few firecrackers on major festivals, but he is so good at it that he would light the house on fire during the Chinese New Year.
Guo Tianxin looked at the busy crowd, sighed and shook his head, "Tiansheng, it seems that many houses have been burned down. Renovation will have to wait until spring. I think so, the houses in the house that can be occupied by people will be given up first."
People live here, so you people can go and stay in my house for a while."
What Zhu Tianjiang was waiting for was this sentence, "Father-in-law, that will cause trouble for you."
Prince Jing also said, "Goddess, don't be angry with your servants. It's a big holiday and you can't help but let one of your servants set off fireworks or something. I'll inform the Ministry of Internal Affairs later, and the money for the repairs will be paid out from the Ministry of Internal Affairs."
Half of it."
When Zhu Tianjiang heard this, he thought this was a good thing. If the old one is not gone, the new one will not come. It would be better to build a new one.
Everyone struggled for several hours, and after statistics, none of the houses where the servants lived were left intact, but none of the dormitories of Zhu Tianjiang, Xia Qing and others were left. The dignified first-rank official Zhu Tianjiang, General Manager
Unable to go to the servant's room, everyone arranged their things and followed them to the Guo Mansion.
During this period, the Guo Mansion had closed its doors to thank guests because the old lady was seriously ill. The arrival of Zhu Tianjiang and his group immediately added a lot of liveliness to the deserted Guo Mansion. The General Mansion originally had fewer people and more rooms, so it was
Once the people like Zhu Tianjiang were enriched, Guo Tianxin felt that the house was full of vitality.
Zhu Tianjiang lived in the west courtyard of Guo Mansion, and not many people came with him, but many of the main characters were present. However, the only thing that worried Zhu Tianjiang was that his master Lin Feng had suddenly disappeared.
"Zhu Er, is there any news about my master?" Zhu Tianjiang asked anxiously.
"Sir, all the brothers outside are looking for you. Don't worry. I guess Mr. Lin has something to do and will be back soon." Zhu Er said comfortingly.
Zhu Tianjiang thought for a while and decided to visit the old lady first. At her age, she might not be able to do it at any time. Zhu Tianjiang was worried that he would not be able to see his master for the last time.
Zhu Tianjiang came to the old lady's bedroom again. As soon as he saw Zhu Tianjiang's arrival, the old lady's spirit immediately improved a lot.
Zhu Tianjiang smiled apologetically, "Grandma, we have all moved into the house. Master, he may have something to take care of, and he will probably be back soon."
Zhu Tianjiang wanted to give the old lady some confidence. He knew that people's faith can often make miracles happen in life.
Mrs. Guo did not speak, but smiled slightly. Mrs. Guo moved her eyes away from Zhu Tianjiang's face and looked at the pot of wintersweet on the flower stand next to her. Zhu Tianjiang's heart moved, and he immediately thought of something. Zhu Tianjiang
After a few simple words of comfort, he stood up and left. Before leaving, he told his servants not to feed the old lady too much sugar water, but to keep it light.
Zhu Tianjiang left the old lady's house and hurriedly walked towards the flower garden. The small flower garden where he once lived had a copper lock on the door. Since Lin Feng moved out, the old lady in this small courtyard ordered everyone to
You are not allowed to live in it, and it will remain idle as is.
"Zhu Yi, open it." Zhu Tianjiang turned around and said.
Zhu Yi pulled out his waist knife, flicked his wrist, and the copper lock was cut into two pieces with a click. Zhu Tianjiang pushed the door open and walked in.
As soon as the two people entered the small courtyard, Zhu Tianjiang suddenly stopped. Under the withered grape trellis, Lin Feng was sitting on a stone bench, still holding his wine gourd.
Zhu Tianjiang glanced at Zhu Yi, who clearly withdrew and guarded the door to prevent anyone from entering.
Zhu Tianjiang walked over gently and said, "Master, I should have guessed that you would come to visit the old lady. Don't be sad. Birth, aging, illness and death are human nature and no one can stop it. Now that we have moved here, you can be honest
Go to the old lady's place and have a look." Zhu Tianjiang looked at the old Lin Feng and said with a little distress.
Lin Feng raised his head and glanced at Zhu Tianjiang. From his red eyes, Zhu Tianjiang couldn't tell that Master hadn't had a good rest in several days.
"Master, Master is not sad. Ruolin and I have been able to live together in the same house for more than twenty years. I am satisfied as Master." Lin Feng's voice became a little hoarse, and the wrinkles on his face became a little deeper.
Zhu Tianjiang had nothing to do to comfort Lin Feng. For him, this was the only thing he could do at the moment.
The next day in the morning, which was also the last morning before the festival, Zhu Daguan unexpectedly appeared in the court. Yelu Douha gave Zhu Tianjiang such a ghost idea to burn the house, and Zhu Tianjiang felt that the house could not be burned in vain.
, he was going to cry poverty to Emperor Chengwu.
Emperor Chengwu had already known about the burning of Zhu's mansion. Seeing Zhu Tianjiang's listless appearance, Emperor Chengwu thought that this boy had been very unlucky recently. Those officials in the court who had been investigated and punished by Zhu Tianjiang before
, looking at Zhu Tianjiang with gloating.
Zhu Tianjiang sneered and said to you guys, don't get too proud too early, you will cry later.
Emperor Chengwu issued a "New Year's greeting". Just as he was about to announce his resignation, he saw Zhu Daguan walking out of the train.
"Your Majesty, your Majesty, Zhu Tianjiang, congratulates Your Majesty and congratulates Your Majesty! What a great joy!" Zhu Tianjiang raised his hands and shouted loudly.
When everyone heard this, they were all stunned by Zhu Tianjiang's inexplicable words of "great joy". Although there were no worries inside and outside these days, they didn't hear of any big happy events happening. Even the old guy Zhou Yantian died suddenly.
, it was not Zhu Tianlai’s turn to come to congratulate him.
"Oh? Tianjiang, I wonder if there is anything worthy of joy for me?" Emperor Cheng Wu looked at Zhu Tianjiang strangely.
"Your Majesty, my house was mercilessly burned by a fire. Isn't this something worthy of celebration?" After Zhu Tianjiang finished speaking, his face was actually filled with an excited smile.
The ministers opened their mouths one by one, thinking that this boy was not so angry that he was going crazy. Your mansion was burned down, what did it do to the emperor? Besides, the meaning of this sentence was to imply that Emperor Wu was jealous of the virtuous.
It means that there is a fire in Zhu Tianjiang's house, as if Emperor Cheng Wu was gloating about his misfortune.
Bang! Emperor Chengwu slapped Yuan, "You are so bold, are you making fun of me!"
When everyone heard this, they thought it was interesting. This guy Zhu Tianjiang has been memorizing Chinese characters recently, and he might make the emperor angry before the big festival, so he could take down all his official positions.
