Chapter 23 What a Xue family

 [The reading is very low, please help me to read the latest chapter!]

"This eldest brother, who is the young master? He won't be troubled by the Xue family, right?"

On the way back to the dining room, Yinglian expressed her worries. She did not want to harm Zhu Jinghongdu because of herself.

"Don't worry, no one will cause trouble for you!" Yu Hai replied with a smile.

Among the eunuchs around Zhu Jinghong, Yu Hai has the best temper, so in Yinglian's opinion, he is a talkative person.

"Is the young master's family an official?" Yinglian couldn't help but be curious.

With a smile on his face, Yu Hai said: "That's right!"

"What exactly does the young master's family do?" Yinglian became more and more curious.

Not sure what Zhu Jinghong was thinking, Yu Hai couldn't say it clearly, but stood there and pointed at the blue sky above his head.

Looking up, there was nothing but white clouds. Yinglian became more and more confused.

That is to say, she was abducted. If her parents had carefully taught her, she would have been able to see and understand where this place was.

Seeing Yu Hai walking to the front, the ignorant Yinglian quickened her pace and followed him. She felt that Zhu Jinghong was becoming more and more mysterious.

Yu Hai was Zhu Jinghong's close servant. When he appeared in the dining room, he received a warmer welcome than Zhang Pingan.

Of course, the way everyone looked at Yinglian also changed. They all felt that this little beauty was very popular with Zhu Jinghong, and that her future glory and wealth were not far away.

"Miss Yinglian has settled here, you must take good care of her!"

Yu Hai had a simple mind, and after a brief explanation, he declined the warm hospitality in the dining room and returned directly to the palace.

After he left, everyone gathered together, congratulated Yinglian and apologized, asking her not to worry about what happened two days ago.

Yinglian was so frightened that so many people complimented her so much that she was completely stunned.

But she knew in her heart that the huge change in everyone's attitudes was all because of Zhu Jinghong.

"If you have nothing to do, let's get over it. I think the girl is tired too!"

"It's all gone!"

Under the greetings of Wu Dianshan and Yu Zhangshan, everyone who came close to them dispersed. They had their own things to be busy with.

"Auntie, what is the identity of the young master?"

Until now, she still didn’t know Zhu Jinghong’s identity. Yu Zhangshan and Yu Zhangshan looked at each other and each understood something.

"The young master is the young master, so don't ask so many questions!"

In the view of Wu and Yu, since Zhu Jinghong is unwilling to reveal his identity, why should they ask for trouble?

In fact, Zhu Jinghong did not conceal it deliberately, but was afraid of scaring Yinglian.

The little girl is in awe of her. Now that she has finally managed to get closer, if she reveals her identity, all her previous efforts will be wasted.

To be honest, he is surrounded by minions now, and it is really difficult to find someone to talk to.

When Yinglian was properly placed, Zhu Jinghong had already appeared at the palace gate, where more than twenty guards were waiting.

At this moment, he is wearing a folded brim felt hat, a yellow unicorn-patterned inner robe, and mountain mantle wristbands with cuffs closed. His attire is both noble and capable.

"See Thirteenth Master!"

The Dragon Imperial Guards present were all from the Wuxun family, and each one was more extraordinary than the last. However, they were all practicing courtesy when facing Zhu Jinghong at this moment.

Zhu Jinghong waved, and Lu Yuxin immediately brought a white horse. Zhu Jinghong jumped on the horse with a slight jump.

The predecessor was skilled in bow and horse, and even if Zhu Jinghong had not yet fully accepted his skills, his ability to draw a bow while riding a horse was far beyond the level of ordinary people.

Holding the reins, Zhu Jinghong looked around and said: "Everyone, there is a Xue family in Yingtian Mansion. They are lawless and threaten the government. They are even crazier than me. I want to see it today..."

More crazy than you? Except His Majesty the Emperor, who in this world dares to be crazy in front of your Thirteenth Master?

While the guards were slandering, they heard Zhu Jinghong continue: "It is said that his family has something to do with Ning Rong's second mansion. If you are afraid, you can stay in the palace. I won't blame you!"

As long as you are a normal person, you will not leave at this time.

"Wherever Master Thirteen goes, I will go wherever you are waiting!" Hou Jing, the leader of the team, said cheerfully.

The captain of the Dragon Guard is a serious seventh-grade military attache, and Hou Jing is only nineteen years old now, so it can be said that he has won at the starting line of life.

"Hou Jing..."

"Master Thirteen, you give your orders!" Hou Jing said, cupping his fists.

Zhu Jinghong said slowly: "Of course you are not afraid of being born in the Duke Xiuguo's palace, but others may not be!"

Zhu Jinghong has not been idle at all in the past few days since he traveled back in time. He has already understood most of the Longjing Guards in Yingtian.

Hou Jing's father, Hou Xiaokang, now holds the title of First Class Son and serves as the Commander-in-Chief of the Rear Army Governor's Mansion. He is one of the few big shots in the army.

More than 60 years have passed since the founding of the Zhong Dynasty. During this period, there have been constant struggles and strife in the imperial court, and many of the four princes and eight princes have fallen into decline.

Among them, the Hou family is already doing well.

At this time, Lu Yuxin said: "With Master Thirteen here, it's not us who should be afraid!"

Then someone echoed: "Yes, Master Thirteen just happened to take us to have a long experience!"

"Master Thirteen, let's go!"

Zhu Jinghong's predecessor liked to practice martial arts. He often sparred with the guards on weekdays. He was very familiar with each other and spoke more casually.

"Yuxin, you are a local, come and lead the way!"

"Yes!"

Anyway, the prince has given permission. If they go out today, it will be compliant. As long as they don't cause too much trouble, nothing will happen.

Lu Yuxin also wanted to see Xue Pan, who ignored national laws and killed people at will.

The Xue family and the palace are not far apart, and people are constantly coming and going at the gate.

There are servants and maids from the Xue family, shopkeepers and deacons from various shops, businessmen who come and go to discuss business, and even officials who come to borrow money.

With such a family fortune, it’s no wonder that the Xue family has become one of the tyrants in Jinling.

"Your Majesty, the steward of the Xue Mansion said that Uncle Xue is currently busy with the emperor's mission, so I asked you to wait a little longer!"

Hearing the report from the personal attendant outside the sedan, the official inside the sedan snorted coldly: "I am busy with the emperor's mission, and he is blocking me with this!"

"This idiot Xue bullies me too much!"

"How dare he refuse to show up when I personally come to visit him? Do you really think that your family has a strong foundation and you can be arrogant about everything?"

The imperial court asked Jinling to raise money and food to suppress Japanese pirates. There were holes in the accounts of various prefectures and counties. However, Zhu Jinghong strictly ordered Qingcha, forcing the local officials to rack their brains and think of ways to fill them.

The simplest way to repair the hole is to borrow money, fill it in and spend the hard days of fighting the Japanese, and then use taxes to repay the loan.

As for the new holes, it will be a headache for the successor.

In the entire Yingtian and even Jinling, the Xue family is the richest, so officials will naturally come to their door.

However, it is difficult for the Xue family to turn around now. They have declined many officials in the past two days, and today this Bai Lai is destined.

While the official was thinking, he heard someone from outside exclaiming: "Sir, officers and soldiers are coming!"

"How did the officers and soldiers get here? Where did the soldiers come from?"

While asking, the official opened the sedan curtain, and then he was also surprised.

Just because he recognized from the flags and uniforms that these officers and soldiers were the elite of the Beijing camp.

"Could it be...that the Crown Prince has arrived?"

Seeing the officers and soldiers parked outside Xue Mansion, the magistrate felt even more strange.

Well, why did the prince come to the Xue family? This is too condescending.

There were more than a hundred officers and soldiers in the Beijing camp. After they appeared, they began to drive away pedestrians, and the magistrate who was an official was no exception.

In less than ten seconds, the outside of Xue’s home was deserted, and soldiers lined up to enforce martial law.

After a while, dozens of people on horseback arrived, and Zhu Jinghong was protected in the middle.

After a few breaths, Zhu Jinghong stopped outside the gate of Xue's house, pulled the reins and looked at the lintel of Xue's house.

The scene was completely silent, except for Zhu Jinghong saying slowly: "It snows heavily in a good year, and pearls are like earth and gold like iron!"
