In the morning, the dock outside Jinling City.

Lin Yun was saying goodbye to several young men who came to see him off. At first, he just wanted to take advantage of these few yamen, but as time went by, those few actually introduced Lin Yun as close friends.

Now that they are about to part ways, several yamen are a little reluctant to leave, wishing they could go to Beijing with Lin Yun for a stroll.

Tian Sheng didn't know whether it was some bad luck or his father secretly bought the test questions, but he also made it to the top list, and his ranking was still ahead of Lin Yun.

There are twenty-six people on the list of undergraduates from the Imperial College. The one with the best score is Zhao Lin. He is ranked second and almost won the Xie Yuan.

The undergraduate student Xie Yuan is Shangguan Jie. He is a scholar from Yangzhou. He is twenty-three years old this year. He has become famous at a young age and is in the limelight.

…

On the pier, Lin Yun was talking to a few dudes when he saw Hu Xiangyi galloping over on horseback with two guards.

He jumped off his horse in front of Lin Yun, clasped his fists and said with a smile: "Brother Lin, General Dong is busy today and cannot come to see you off. Let me say sorry on his behalf. I will apologize to you when I go to the capital another day. "

Lin Yun smiled and said: "He is busy with military affairs, I can understand, as long as you come, it will be fine."

Hu Xiangyi lowered his voice and said, "Brother Lin, I heard that there is going to be a big war in the northwest. Do you know about this?"

Lin Yun smiled and asked, "Could it be that you want to go west to strive for military glory?"

Hu Xiangyi chuckled and said: "There's nothing wrong with me here in Jinling. I'm tired of staying here. If I can go to the northwest to fight some battles with the Mongols, maybe I can really achieve military success."

Lin Yun smiled bitterly and said: "The person who is going to lead the troops to the northwest this time is probably Wang Ziteng, the commander of the Beijing camp. I have no contact with him, so I'm afraid I won't be able to help you."

Hu Xiangyi: "Don't you know Prince Xuan? It shouldn't be difficult to ask him to help transfer someone to the northwest, right?"

Lin Yun: "It's not difficult to ask you to go alone, but without your brothers, what can you do in the northwest alone? In the end, you were sold, and you don't even know how you died."

Hu Xiangyi chuckled and said, "Isn't that true?"

Lin Yun said seriously: "We are brothers, can I still harm you?"

You stay here with peace of mind. If you have a chance in the future, I will take you to visit the Guangdong Sea. That is a good place to make a fortune.

Hu Xiangyi's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he quickly asked: "Are you talking about fighting against pirates?"

Lin Yun smiled and said: "Although I missed it, it's not far away."

Hu Xiangyi rubbed his hands and said: "Although my soldiers have been wandering on the ship all year round, they have never been to the sea. I am afraid that once they go to the sea, they will turn into soft-legged shrimps."

Lin Yunle said: "It's still early, as long as you have an idea."

"OK."

…

At this moment, Lin Yun saw Li Hongyi and several servants, protecting two carriages slowly driving over.

He hurriedly said goodbye to Hu Xiangyi, stepped forward to greet Li Hongyi, and asked: "Brother, how many people will my aunt bring with me?"

Li Hongyi: "There are six or seven people. In addition to my aunt and two cousins, there is also a mother-in-law, two maids and two male servants."

Lin Yun: "I would like to arrange for my aunt and mother and daughter of the Xue family to sit on the same boat. Do you think it is feasible?"

Li Hongyi: "Let me ask my aunt and see what her opinion is."

After the carriage stopped, a woman wearing a draped hat walked out of the carriage in front, followed by a middle-aged woman.

The woman stepped out of the carriage, raised her hand to lift her veil, bowed to Lin Yun and saluted, "I have met Mr. Lin, and I have caused you trouble along the way."

Lin Yun had met this woman once before in Li's Mansion. Although they didn't have much conversation, they were considered acquaintances.

He cupped his hands and returned the greeting: "Aunt, you're welcome. Brother Hongyi and I are as close as brothers, so just treat me as your junior."

Li Hongyi said from the side: "Uncle, Brother Yun arranged for you to sit on the same boat as the Xue family's mother and daughter. What do you think?"

The woman hurriedly asked: "Is there a foreigner living with the Xue family?"

Lin Yun: "Aunt Xue has a son. This year is 12. I can let him ride on the same boat with me."

The woman smiled and said, "That's no problem."

At this time, a pair of cute little girls came out of a carriage behind, followed by two slightly older maids.

The woman waved to the two little girls and said with a smile: "Wen'er, Qi'er, come quickly and meet brother Lin."

Two little girls ran over quickly and shouted to Lin Yun crisply: "Meet Brother Lin."

Lin Yun smiled and said, "Don't be polite. It's a long journey. You two must be prepared to endure hardships."

The younger Li Qi asked Lin Yun: "Brother Lin, mother said it will take more than a month to go to the capital by boat, right?"

Lin Yun: "Not bad."

Li Hongyi smiled at the side and said: "Wen'er, Qier, if you encounter any difficulties on the road, you should go to Brother Lin for help, do you know?"

"Yeah," the two little girls nodded vigorously.

Lin Yun raised his hand and waved to Pearl and shouted: "Zhenzhu, take them to see Aunt Xue. If they are short of anything, just go to Xiao Mo to help purchase."

Pearl: "Okay."

When Pearl led mother, daughter, maids and servants to the ship, Li Hongyi took out a letter from his arms and handed it to Lin Yundao: "My aunt's brother is in charge of the household department, his name is Zhou Sheng, this is mine

This is a letter written by my father. If you have the opportunity in the future, you can visit him."

Lin Yun took the letter and put it in his arms, and then said to Li Hongyi: "Brother, the Imperial College is not a place where you will live forever. You should still consider whether to become an official."

Li Hongyi smiled bitterly and said: "My parents are old, and as an only son, how can I travel far away from home?"

Lin Yun: "In this case, I won't persuade you anymore. If my brother wants to become an official in the future, he can come to the capital to find me."

Li Hongyi: "Thank you very much!"

At this time, Zhong Yi came over and reminded Lin Yun: "Sir, it's getting late, we should leave."

Lin Yun nodded, then raised his hands to Li Hongyi and said, "Brother, take care of yourself. I'm leaving."

Li Hongyi: "You should also take care of yourself."

Lin Yunchong was still saying goodbye to Xue Pan with several dandies, when Feng Ziying shouted: "Brother Xue, Ziying, let's go."

After saying that, he turned around and walked quickly onto the gangplank to the ship. This time there was no official ship accompanying them. They rented two large, four small and five merchant ships.

The female relatives of the Xue and Li families took a big boat together. Lin Yun, Feng Ziying, Xue Pan and others also took a big boat together, and the rest were accompanied by guards and servants to protect them.

…

After Lin Yun got on the boat, he said goodbye to the people on the dock and asked Zhong Yi who was standing next to him: "Is Du Sha ready?"

Zhong Yi nodded and said: "We are ready. Tonight, they will work together to eradicate all the dens of those traffickers."

Lin Yun: "Let him move cleanly and don't let anyone catch him."

Zhong Yi smiled and said: "Tian Zhuang and the others are all scouts. Needless to say, they will understand this little detail."
