Chapter 9 Returning to the Palace
Gao Huan and the others had a hearty meal at the wonton stall outside the city, and then went to the Jinyiwei Yamen to meet their errands.

Gao Huan and others met Cao Zheng, who had been waiting for a long time in front of the yamen.

Cao Zheng stood on the steps with his hands behind his back, looked down at Jianghuhai for a while, then nodded in satisfaction, and said: "This trip to Fuzhou has performed well, and it has not only mediated the dispute between the Qingcheng faction and the Fuwei Escort Bureau. , and played out the prestige of our Jinyiwei, the Commander heard about this, and he also praised you very much."

Jiang Huhai blushed when he heard the words, and silently looked at Gao Huan next to him, seeing Gao Huan deliberately acting as if he had nothing to do with himself, so he had no choice but to admit the credit against his conscience, Said: "My lord, I'm overwhelmed. Everything that the humble staff has done is just a matter of duty, and it is really not worth mentioning."

"The cautiousness in your kid really hasn't changed at all."

Cao Zheng smiled and nodded Jianghuhai, and immediately asked about something that he was quite concerned about: "Are the rumors about the evil sword manual true?"

Hearing the words, Jiang Huhai stepped aside to let Lin Pingzhi out, and said: "This person is named Lin Pingzhi, he and Lin Zhennan from the Fuwei Escort have both learned the evil sword manual, but as far as I know, the father and son martial arts Being mediocre, it's hard to get into the hall of elegance, otherwise, you won't be forced to the point where your family is almost ruined by the mere Qingcheng sect."

"Oh"

Hearing this, Cao Zheng seemed a little disappointed, and said, "Give the sword manual to Shen Jingren later, and save it for storage."

Hearing the words, Jiang Huhai quickly took out the secret book of the evil sword manual from his bosom, and handed it to Cao Zheng, saying: "This is the evil sword manual, please read it first."

Cao Zheng was very satisfied with Jiang Huhai's performance, nodded his head approvingly, and immediately reached out to take the evil-disciplining sword manual. Seeing that the evil-disciplining sword manual in his hand was a simple book, he flipped through it casually. After a general glance, he saw that the sword moves in the book were common and ordinary, without any subtleties, so he couldn't help curling his lips, closed the book, and said: "It's been a hard journey, and the advanced yamen will accept the interrogation. It’s a three-day holiday, and it’s not too late to come back on duty after the holiday.”

This so-called interrogation is actually nothing more than a formality.

Everyone entered the yamen one by one to be interrogated. During this period, Yu Qing even took out 500 taels of silver notes from his arms with a playful smile, and handed them over to Cao Zheng, saying: "My lord, this trip to Fuzhou has been very fruitful. Your."

Cao Zheng took the bank note into his arms, but he did not forget to say some high-sounding words, saying: "When you go out to do errands, you must know how to do what you can. You must know that it is not easy for the common people. You must not do things that bully the people. If you Even if I spared you all, Commander-in-Chief will never give up with you."

Hearing this, Yu Qing immediately recounted what happened to him at the Fulai Inn, especially focusing on the fact that he voluntarily reimbursed Xiao Er for tea money.

When Cao Zheng heard the words, he nodded in satisfaction and said, "A man should act like this."

After Gao Huan and the others accepted some interrogation in the yamen, they left one after another.

Cao Shaoqin copied two copies of the action records of this trip to Fuzhou, one was handed over to Jin Yiwei, and the other was handed over to Dongchang. After the two sides checked it, they could file it.

After Gao Huan took Lin Pingzhi out of the yamen, he did not return home in a hurry, but galloped out of the city and went to the wonton stand to retrieve the cassock temporarily stored here.

Gao Huan silently put away the cassock next to his body, heaved a sigh of relief with lingering fear in his heart, and said, "Fortunately, we were prepared early, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous."

Lin Pingzhi glanced at the Evil Resisting Sword Manual, frowned and said, "Master, are you really planning to teach that Eunuch Cao Shaoqin the Evil Resisting Sword Manual?"

Gao Huan pondered for a moment, squinted his eyes, and slowly said: "First pass him a set of fake swordsmanship, as for this real swordsmanship. Don't be in a hurry, let's see how he behaves in the future."

Gao Huan said, turned his head to look at Lin Pingzhi, and said: "You already know my identity, this time when you return to Beijing, will you go back to the mansion with me?"

Hearing this, Lin Pingzhi nodded without hesitation, and said: "It is of great significance to return home this time. Since Master wants to find out the real culprit behind the secret push you into the water, how can there be no helpers by his side? My apprentice is by my side. Maybe it can help you."

"Alright."

Gao Huan seemed quite calm about returning to the mansion. The reason why he asked this question was mainly because he was worried that the pampered Lin Pingzhi would not be able to accept the sarcastic remarks from the servants in the mansion.

After the two master and apprentice made an agreement, they rode horses side by side and walked towards Shen's residence.

The two of them walked to the front of Shen's mansion, but they saw that the gate of the mansion was closed tightly, and there was not even a shadow of a ghost in front of the gate.

Seeing this, Lin Pingzhi couldn't help frowning, and thought: "It seems that Master's situation in this Shen residence is far worse than I imagined."

Only a few people know about Gao Huan's return to Beijing today, the head of the family, Shen Yan, knows about it, and his cousin Guo Cong also knows about it, but his mother-in-law Miao and Shen Rushuang don't know anything about it. In addition, when Gao Huan was away from home, he never had any correspondence with Shen Rushuang, so the two daughters knew nothing about his itinerary.

Gao Huan led Lin Pingzhi into Shen's mansion through the corner gate, and personally led the horse to the stables to feed the fodder.

The groom looked like an old god, and he never wanted to step forward to help.

It wasn't until Gao Huan and Lin Pingzhi appeared in the back house together that Miao and Shen Rushuang learned the news of Gao Huan's return from the servants.

Although Shen Rushuang was quite against this arranged marriage, but out of the cultivation of a lady, she still made the choice to come out with her mother to welcome Gao Huan back home.

Standing in front of the screen wall of the back house with a smile, Miao looked at Gao Huan silently. After a long time, she frowned and said, "I haven't seen you for a long time, but Cheng Wu has become more and more heroic."

"The temperament is introverted, and there is a heroic spirit between the brows, which is really more and more extraordinary."

The mother-in-law really likes her son-in-law more and more, and the Miao family does not hesitate to praise her.

Miao's pearls were in front, and when Shen Rushuang looked at Gao Huan, she also felt that he was different than before, but she couldn't tell what was different, but felt that Gao Huan's temperament had changed and became daunting .

During this trip to Fuzhou, Gao Huan took a total of three shots. First, he seriously injured Yu Canghai, the head of the Qingcheng faction, and then killed two seniors who had long been famous in the Jianghu. The state of mind has had an extremely profound impact.

He is no longer the down-and-out scholar he used to be at will. He already has a certain ability to protect himself, so he has become more and more confident.

Miao took Gao Huan's hand and talked for a while, then turned her gaze to Lin Pingzhi and said, "Who is this?"

"His name is Lin Pingzhi, and he is the head of the Fuwei Escort. He is grateful to his son-in-law for helping the Fuwei Escort out of trouble, so he insists on worshiping me as his teacher. This time, he also comes to the capital with me to see the world." Gao Huan said .

"Oh"

Miao patted the back of Gao Huan's hand with a smile, and solemnly said: "I will be a teacher for one day and a father for the rest of my life. Now that I have become a teacher, I have to take on the responsibility of preaching and teaching for him."

"Yes."

Gao Huan nodded approvingly.

Miao asked someone to arrange a guest room for Lin Pingzhi in Gao Huan's yard, and immediately said to Gao Huan and Shen Rushuang, "It's getting late, go back to your room early to rest."

"Yes."
