Chapter 689: Flicker (three shifts)

northwest.
The wind was blowing and the dust was flying.
Yang Yuanqing took a sip of bad wine and pushed open the door of the express station under the strong wind.
"The old scholar is here! It's good if you are here, these orders are all up to you."
Ma Gui handed over a stack of express orders to Yang Yuanqing for registration.
Yang Yuanqing nodded, "Let it go."
"okay!"
Ma Guixi smiled.
He is most afraid of writing. After the old scholar came, he was relieved.
The clerical work can be handed over to old talents.
Ma Gui passed by him and smelled the smell of wine, "Old scholar, you are drinking again. In the morning, you said what wine you drink. Beware of the station master punishing you."
Yang Yuanqing smiled and said secretly: "Just took a sip, didn't dare to drink more. Don't tell the stationmaster."
Ma Gui also lowered his voice and said, "I can't do this again next time. The express station has a policy that no alcohol is allowed during the shift. I found a penalty once."
"I know, I know. I'm an alcohol addict." Yang Yuanqing still looks like a good old man.
Ma Gui snorted, "If you continue to do this, one day you will drink to death."
Yang Yuanqing shook his head and said casually: "It's a good thing to drink to death."
Seeing that Ma Gui didn't understand, he explained, "Isn't it a beautiful thing to die without pain?"
Ma Gui convinced him.
A busy day starts here.
Sanhe Express Jinzhou Luomahe Substation is a busy express station.
It is just a northwest camp with hundreds of thousands of large soldiers plus logistics civilians.
These people send letters, send money, and now they all come to the express station.
From morning to night, the express station has never been idle.
The leading soldier, Jia Er, is a soldier under Gu Ling.
At the end of last year, he sent a sum of money back home.
Today he came to get the letter.
They are all acquaintances, and Ma Gui greeted him well, "Come on! Your letter from home has arrived, I will find it for you."
"Find it slowly, don't worry."
Jia Er sat on the stool and stared at Yang Yuanqing with a smile.
"My general is kind-hearted. Knowing that the old scholar has no money to eat, he will find a way to get you into the express station."
Yang Yuanqing raised his eyelids, "Your general hasn't come back yet?"
"It's fast, it's estimated that we should start from Beijing in half a month."
"When your general arrives, tell me. I will invite him to drink."
"Xinglai!" Jia Er, the big soldier, grinned.
Ma Gui turned out Jia Er's letter and handed it to him, "The letter from your house."
Jia Er pushed the letter back, "Read it for me. You know I can't read."
Ma Gui was very busy, "Old scholar, you read the letter for him."
Yang Yuanqing nodded, and took the letter, word by word, his slow and exhausted voice was particularly pleasant.
Hearing that the family members had successfully received the money, the big soldier Jia Er laughed.
He yelled to Ma Gui: "My family used the money I sent back to build two more brick houses. I will send my son to enlightenment next year."
Ma Gui was happy for Jia Er, "Good thing! It's not easy for you to save some money as a soldier, don't waste it on the gaming table. It would be nice to send it home."
"That is! Since the courier station has been established, sending money has become much more convenient."
I saved money in the past, but I couldn't take it home. Everyone is used to gambling.
In case one day he died, the money was spent by himself, not spoiled.
Now it is convenient to send money home.
Many big soldiers with tired families have also begun to realize that they can save money and send them home when they save enough money to help their families improve their lives.
This is a positive trend, and Northwest Daying fully supports it. The cooperation with courier stations has also become closer.
People go in and out, either to get letters or send parcels and money.
Near noon, the door of the express station was pushed open again.
The yamen clerk walked in.
"Is Yang Yuanqing here?"
Yang Yuanqing raised his head, his eyes blank at first. After seeing the young official's dress clearly and judging the identity of the other party, Yang Yuanqing understood it all in his heart.
After so many years, the government has thought of him again, which is probably not a good thing.
However, he was not nervous at all.
He has been waiting for this day for many years.
He calmly said, "I am Yang Yuanqing."
The little official said unceremoniously: "Follow me, and the adults will ask you something."
When Ma Gui heard this, he was shocked, and quickly made someone call the stationmaster.
The postmaster of the express station, retired from the Sirius Army, has a very aggressive temperament.
He stared, "Yang Yuanqing is an employee of the courier station. You tell him to go there once. I won't let you go if you don't give an explanation."
Everyone had never asked Yang Yuanqing's identity, but they all tacitly knew that he had been exiled.
What is the threat of being an old star.
General Gu said to use him, then use it.
Since entering the express station, the express station has the responsibility to protect Yang Yuanqing.
The corners of the little official's mouth twitched, and he cursed inwardly: "These soldiers, one by one, are domineering."
Then the little official took out the document from his arms and handed it to the courier station master, "Please see clearly, this is an official document. My adult wants to see him, but it's business."
Like Ma Gui, the courier station master learned literacy during training. He can barely understand the contents of the document.
Yang Yuanqing stood up from her position and said, "Thank you for the maintenance of the stationmaster. The document is true. The parent official wants to see the old man and dare not delay time. I will take a half-day off first and ask the stationmaster for permission."
The head of the express station rolled his eyes, "Okay, I approve you to ask for leave. I will send two more people to send you into the city, and ask someone to come back and say something."
Yang Yuanqing wanted to refuse.
As a result, the courier station master waved his hand and the matter was settled.
Yang Yuanqing and the employees of the two express delivery stations accompanied the young officials into the city to pay a visit to the governor of Jinzhou.
He was ready to die.
Unexpectedly, what is waiting for him is not death, but the will to call him back to Beijing.
Yang Yuanqing looked dumbfounded.
I can't believe it.
He has been living in the northwest for many years, but he is not ignorant of the situation of the court.
The Yang family has fallen, and former friends and teachers are unwilling.
Individual official careers went smoothly, but they couldn't speak before the emperor.
When no one spoke for him, the emperor had no reason to call him back to Beijing.
What exactly is going on?
Is it because someone wants him to return to the capital first, and then kill him?
This is a good idea.
Give him hope first, and then hit him with a heavy hammer, so that he will be smashed to pieces, and he will die.
Thinking of this, Yang Yuanqing has calmed down.
For returning to Beijing, I was not half happy, and certainly not angry.
To be able to go back to the capital to take a look before dying is also a hopeless one.
He accepted the will calmly. And asked the governor of Jinju about a two-day holiday.
The governor of Jinzhou reminded him: "Your Majesty is in a hurry to see you, and I will give you two days to make the dishes clean. Then the official will send someone to you into Beijing."
"Thank you, sir."
...
Yang Yuanqing returned to the express station.
The news that he was about to return to the capital quickly spread to everyone up and down the express station.
Everyone congratulated him.
The courier station manager laughed and said, "This is a good thing! There are just two places for vacation. I will send two boys to take you to the capital. You should spend all the money on the road, and you don’t need to worry about it. I will figure out a solution for you. "
Ma Gui took the initiative to ask Ying, "Stationmaster, I know Beijing. Why don't I send the old talents to the capital. I happen to be on vacation."
The head of the express station raised his eyebrows, "Didn't you say to wait until the end of the year to take a vacation?"
Ma Gui chuckled, and said with some embarrassment: "It tickles when I hear that the old scholar is going to Beijing."
The head of the express station simply agreed, "Okay, count you."
I clicked another person's name, and the matter was settled.
On the day that the old scholar left, the head of the express station gave Cheng Yi a taels of silver.
Other people at the express station, ranging from a few dollars to a few taels, also sent Cheng Yi.
Yang Yuanqing refused, but had to accept it and thanked him again and again. I said that when I arrived in the capital, I would write a letter immediately to inform everyone of safety.
People from the government urged on the side, and a group of people hurried on the road.
Sending off the old scholar, the courier station manager was rarely melancholy, "I don't know whether the old scholar is a blessing or a curse in Beijing."
The group hurriedly hurried, and it took nearly twenty days to reach the capital.
Gu Ling led the people and greeted them at Shili Pavilion outside the city.
Yang Yuanqing dared to recognize each other only when he was dazzled and rubbed his eyes.
"Why is General Gu here?"
"Knowing that you are going to Beijing, I specially stayed in Beijing to wait for you. I know you have a lot of problems, don't worry, wait for me to pick you up, and come one by one."
As soon as Yang Yuanqing heard this, he was able to return to Beijing, which must be related to General Gu.
However, it is impossible to get him back to the capital by himself alone.
Could it be the girl whom General Gu said?
Yang Yuanqing suppressed his doubts and followed Gu Ling to Xinmin County.
"This is Xinmin County. If you want to come, you should have heard of it. How about here?"
"Very good!"
Yang Yuanqing looked calm, but his heart was extremely shocked.
In his memory, outside the South City Gate was a wasteland.
Today, outside the Nancheng Gate, the prosperous city is better than the capital, and the flow of people is like weaving, comparable to the Jiangnan in memory.
Who has such courage to create a city out of thin air?
Gu Yu said with a smug look: "This city is made by my sister."
Yang Yuanqing could no longer conceal his inner shock, "Your sister?"
"Exactly! But she has a special status, and it is not convenient to take you to see him for the time being."
Gu Yu didn't say much, and directly took Yang Yuanqing to the other hospital to wash and rest.
Later, he led him to report to the Criminal Ministry.
The Criminal Ministry asked him to wait. Your Majesty would summon him and declare him. And ordered not to leave the capital.
In the evening, Yang Yuanqing saw Deng Cunli and learned the ins and outs of the matter.
"Does San Yuan Gong plan to return to Beijing this time?"
"How can a sinner have a plan." Yang Yuanqing laughed at himself.
Deng Cunli smiled, "Soon, San Yuan Gong is no longer a sinner. After reversing the case, does San Yuan Gong plan to enter the court or return to his ancestral home to cultivate?"
Yang Yuanqing's muddy eyes suddenly became sharp, "Dong-gong Deng has any advice?"
Deng Cunli didn't answer the question, "I wonder if Sanyuan Gong has left to learn after many years of study?"
Yang Yuanqing laughed, his eyes became muddy again, "Nothing left."
"That's great!"
When Yang Yuanqing heard this, he became curious.
Deng Cunli didn't sell Guanzi either, "Don't hide the truth from San Yuan Gong, my wife deliberately hired you to teach at the Shanhe Academy, and it took so much effort to get you back to the capital."
Yang Yuanqing's hand trembled slightly, "Your wife, is it the little General Gu sister?"
"Exactly! You can call my wife Madam Zhao!"
The three words Madam Zhao, like a heavy hammer, hit Yang Yuanqing on the head. In an instant, he understood everything.
I understand why General Gu's sister can build a city, and why he can get him back to the capital.
The dignified eldest prince's wife, with a prominent reputation, it is no wonder that she has such a skill.
No wonder General Gu has been reluctant to reveal the true identity of his sister.
It is true that you can't disclose it, it will cause big trouble.
After Yang Yuanqing was shocked, he quickly calmed down.
He settled down and asked, "Thank you, Madam, for being able to look up to the old man. Hiring him to teach at Shanhe Academy might be a mistake."
Deng Cunli laughed, "I am afraid that San Yuan Gong still doesn't know his current situation. You have not returned to Beijing, and it has caused the court to vibrate. Li Bingming, do you remember San Yuan Gong?"
Yang Yuanqing nodded, "He is the same year as the old man. I was the champion at that time, and he was Tanghua."
"San Yuan Gong is right. Li Bingming is now a Chinese book commander. Although he does not have the name of a prime minister, he is actually a prime minister. This time you can be recalled to the capital without any problems, thanks to Master Li's help."
"Why does he help me? He has always been at odds with me. He has no reason to help me." Yang Yuanqing was shocked.
Deng Cunli said: "Master Li is willing to help you, naturally because someone has persuaded him."
"Your wife?"
"Exactly."
Yang Yuanqing opened his mouth, but didn't say a word.
Deng Cunli didn’t care, and slowly said,
Master Li is willing to help you return to Beijing, and there are conditions. He wants to rectify his name and publish a collection of essays. He will overwhelm you in talent and ruin your San Yuan Gong reputation. Dignified San Yuan Gong , But you.
You should know that today you have no choice but to ride a tiger. Your Majesty declines the solicitation and teaches at Shanhe Academy, so that you can be safe and let the Yang clan stand on the court again. Otherwise, you will be stigmatized and crushed. Members of the Yang clan will bury you. "
Yang Yuanqing was silent.
