Chapter 276 Leaving Beijing

Divination to Zhao was suddenly caught by Hua to Zhao, and he was a little confused.

Xinyou was a little surprised.

The two of them stared at each other for a moment. Hua Daizhao said a little embarrassedly: "Xin Daizhao, Brother Bu is very effective in divination."

 He didn’t believe it before, until recently.

Xinyou smiled and said, "Thank you, Brother Hua, for reminding me. I am about to travel far, so I should ask about bad luck."

 Hua Daizhao secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

 Fortunately, Xin Taizhao did not refuse, otherwise it would have been embarrassing.

He hoped that the boy, who was barely a few years older than his son, would be safe.

 “I wonder if it is convenient to wait for an edict through divination?”

Looking at the smiling young man, he couldn't refuse the fortune-telling order, so he handed over the copper coins and asked Xinyou to throw them.

Although Xin You had pretended to have divine fortune-telling many times, he actually didn't understand it. He tossed six copper coins according to the instructions and waited for the fortune-telling to be interpreted.

The divination waiter stared at the hexagrams and murmured: "Gen up and down..."

 “Brother Bu, how are you?” Ci Daizhao also asked curiously.

“Judging from the hexagrams, Xin Daizhao may suffer some losses during this trip. If he can make good use of it, he will benefit from it. Generally speaking, this trip will be safe and profitable..."

 “It’s good if people are safe.” Hua Daizhao said with a smile.

 In his opinion, Xin Daizhao is not short of wealth and future, and safety is the most important thing.

Xin You also smiled: "Yes, it's good to be safe. Thank you Bu Daizhao for doing the divination for me. When I come back, I'll treat you all to a drink."

A few people gathered up and went out, waiting for the final edict to be announced, staring at Xin You's back thoughtfully.

 Actually, he had nothing to say. Xin Daizhao's trip would be good for his marriage.

 Is it possible that you will bring a wife back?

But Xin Daizhao was going to welcome the late queen's coffin back to the capital. Wouldn't it be absurd to do this? However, the hexagram shows that Xin Daizhao will gain great fame during this trip.

Unlike Hua Daizhao, who was really close to Xin You, Divination Daizhao had a mentality of not being close to this new colleague with a special status, so he would not say any unpleasant words.

 That's all, the mystery will be solved when Xin Daizhao returns to Beijing.

Xin You walked out of the yamen, and the steward of the eldest princess's mansion who had been waiting for a long time came to greet her: "Mr. Xin, Her Royal Highness the eldest princess is waiting for you in the teahouse in front."

Xin You nodded and followed the steward to the teahouse.

 “I met my aunt.”

Princess Zhaoyang was happy when she heard Xin You shouting like this, but when she thought about the child going out tomorrow, she couldn't help but worry: "I only know that you will leave Beijing tomorrow. I wonder if you have any arrangements after you go to office. Why don't you come here to have a look?" you."

 “Worries you.”

Princess Zhaoyang sighed: "I am indeed worried, but I can't stop you from what you want to do. I heard from the emperor that the person accompanying you this time is Marquis Changle. Although Marquis Changle is young, he is a reliable and capable man. How can you Take his advice.”

Xin You kept nodding to Princess Zhaoyang’s earnest instructions.

"Go early and come back early. Safety is the top priority. There are many people in the capital waiting for you to come back safely."

“My nephew understands. Please rest assured, aunt.”

Princess Zhaoyang glanced at the steward guarding the door, and soon two people walked in from the door. Both of them are in their twenties, with slender figures and bright eyes.

“I have met Her Royal Highness the Princess.” The two young men saluted in unison.

Princess Zhaoyang said: "These two are the guards of the Princess's mansion. They are highly skilled and loyal. Please let them accompany you when you go out this time."

Xin You could tell that he was a guard, someone who put aside life and death.

 She hesitated for a moment, then accepted Princess Zhaoyang's wholehearted intention: "Thank you, aunt."

"Young Master Xin will be your master from now on. Please show your respects." Princess Zhaoyang looked at the two young men and said calmly.

The two of them knelt down on one knee and said, "I have met the young master." "You two don't need to be polite. I don't know how to address you?"

 The two of them said in unison: "Master, please give me a name."

Xin You couldn't help but glance at Princess Zhaoyang.

Princess Zhaoyang smiled and said: "The two of them were selected from a group of guards. Before, they were only known by their code names, so you can give them names."

Xin You didn't have a troubled temper, so she thought for a while and said: "The left side is called Qianfeng, and the right side is called Ping'an."

Hearing another person call "Ping'an", Princess Zhaoyang immediately understood the meaning of "Qianfeng".

“I know that one day’s sail can bring thousands of miles of wind. Smooth sailing and a safe journey, a good name.”

 “Thank you, Master, for the name.” The two young men knelt down to express their thanks.

 In this way, when Xinyou returned to his residence, there were two more guards around him.

 Early the next morning, Xin You and He Qingxiao entered the palace together and bid farewell to Emperor Xingyuan.

Emperor Xingyuan warned again: "Qingxiao, I leave Xin Mu's safety to you, don't let me down."

“I will definitely live up to your majesty’s trust.”

 After leaving the palace, the entourage was already ready.

He Qingxiao carefully selected ten people from the Jinlin Guards, while Xin You had two guards sent by the eldest princess.

Seeing He Qingxiao glance at the two of them, Xin You introduced: "The eldest princess gave it to me, Qianfeng and Ping'an."

He Qingxiao guessed the meaning of the name when he heard it. He and Xin You were riding horses and said, "There are more floods in the south this year. We will mainly take the land route for this trip, but it will be more difficult."

Xin You held the reins and smiled: "This little bit of hard work is nothing."

At this time last year, she suddenly lost her loved one and traveled all the way from Wanyang to the capital alone. Now that she has companions and a good horse, it can't be called hard work.

After leaving the city gate and entering the official road, the group of people speeded up. For a moment, the horse hooves galloped and dust flew up, making passers-by look sideways.

 In the palace, Emperor Xingyuan read most of the memorial, and his thoughts drifted away for a while.

Mu'er is going to the inn at this time, right?

 “Is it hotter today than the previous two days?”

Sun Yan hurriedly asked: "It's a bit hotter. May I ask someone to add an ice basin?"

"No need." Emperor Xingyuan stood up, walked around, and said, "Pass the painting and wait for the imperial edict to be sent to the palace."

Sun Yan’s face did not change, but he suddenly realized in his heart: The emperor is thinking about Xin Daizhao!

　　That's the case with people. Once you care about a person, you can't help but pay attention to the people related to that person.

In the imperial edict-waiting hall of the Hanlin Academy, people in the east hall perform their duties, while those in the west hall are idle.

“Before, people came to the palace from time to time. Although it was not for us, it was somewhat new to us. Now I’m counting ants again.”

Not long after Ci Daizhao finished sighing, the chamberlain who always came to tell Xin Daizhao to enter the palace arrived.

 "Pass the painting and wait for the imperial edict to Hua Anfu to come to the palace to see him."

As soon as the decree came out, everyone was dumbfounded.

 “Ahem.” The waiter coughed as a reminder.

Hua hurriedly knelt down to thank him for the imperial edict, and looked at the servant as if he wanted to ask but was afraid to ask.

 The others in Ci Daizhao also had similar expressions.

The chamberlain was also happy to sell his favor and said with a smile: "It was Xin Daizhao who mentioned to me before that Hua Daizhao is good at painting figures... I wonder which snack shop Hua Daizhao bought the sweet cake from?"

Seeing Hua Waitei Zhao, he was so moved that he was about to burst into tears. The chamberlain urged: "Hurry up, Hua Waitei Zhao. I'm still waiting."

Looking at Hua Daizhao walking away with his chamberlain, Ci Daizhao murmured: "It's actually that piece of sweet cake—"
