When the Nanjing Three Giants reappeared in front of Qin Dewei, Qin Dewei felt that he had nothing to say, but he had to say something.
After thinking about it, he asked: "You guys went too far, why did it happen like this?
Zhou Shangshu and I just have some misunderstandings, we can just talk it out, why bother to accuse him of multiple crimes?"
Li Huan, the guarding eunuch, said: "We are just following your wishes, Qin Hanlin, and want to find some excuse to impeach Zhou Shangshu as a warning.
Who would have thought that Qin Hanlin was so powerful that he had Zhou Shangshu dismissed from office? How can you blame me?"
Feeling that he had been dumped in a big pot again, Qin Dewei was very puzzled: "Li Gongxiu is going to talk nonsense, what does Zhou Shangshu's dismissal have to do with me? How can it be left to me?"
Eunuch Li replied concisely and concisely: "The news came from the capital. It was Mr. Xia Ge who strongly advocated the dismissal of Zhou Shangshu from office. Mr. Gu Ge did not stop him."
With Qin Dewei's political sensitivity, just saying this much is enough for Qin Dewei to understand the connotation.
Two months ago, Master Xia and Gu Dingchen joined the cabinet together. One had a high official rank and the other had seniority. They had to fight to determine the right to speak.
As we all know, the cabinet bachelors have the same power in name, but who is bigger and who is smaller needs to fight for it on their own.
At this time, Gu Dingchen's fellow countryman Zhou Shangshu became the victim of the struggle between the new pavilion and the elders, and was successfully used by Master Xia to establish his authority, so Gu Dingchen lost the battle.
People in the capital who don't know the truth always think that Qin Dewei is uneasy even after returning to Nanjing and deliberately kills Master Xia thousands of miles away.
Qin Dewei sighed. He didn't want to explain anything anymore, because he knew that no matter how he explained, it would be useless.
He could only wave his hand feebly: "You are so righteous, I will note it down!"
This is what the three giants in Nanjing want. We all worked together to sell you such a big deal, and you, Qin Hanlin, can't help but appreciate it! We can't let everyone's hard work go in vain!
Later, Qin Dewei reported to the imperial court about the Nanjing temple disaster and said definitively: "Unexpected changes are difficult to prevent with manpower, and it is difficult for the garrison officials to shirk their responsibilities."
The result of the court's decision was that Nanjing's garrison eunuchs, garrison ministers, and war ministers were each fined half a year's salary.
At this point, the official business was basically completed, and Qin Dewei finally made other officials happy for once.
As for Wang Lianqing, it is basically certain that he will go north with Qin Dewei after retiring.
August arrived in the blink of an eye, and the weather gradually cooled down. Qin Dewei began to prepare to return to the capital, planning to leave on August 15th.
On the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, Qin Dewei, Gu Qiongzhi, Xiao Kui'er and their uncle's family sat in the courtyard together to enjoy the moon, enjoying themselves happily.
Some things have to be talked about after all. Qin Dewei said to his uncle Qin Xiang: "In a few days, I will return to the capital, and I want to take Mrs. Gu and Xiao Kuier with me."
Qin Xiang, who was quite happy at first, lowered his face and said in a low voice: "You can go and let Xiao Kui'er stay."
Gu Qiongzhi remained silent and looked at Qin Dewei.
Qin Dewei advised: "How can this be done? It is not good for young children to be separated from their parents for a long time."
If Xiao Kui'er is only allowed to stay in Nanjing, wouldn't he become a left-behind child?
Qin Xiang retorted: "Why can't it work? There are many people who work alone in other places as officials, while their wives and children stay in their hometowns.
If others don't tell you, isn't Mr. Feng's wife and children always in Songjiang Mansion?
Could it be that I should treat Xiao Kui'er badly if he stays in Nanjing? This is my incense."
Qin Dewei had a few words with his uncle, but he had no choice but to press the topic for the time being and think about talking about it in a few days.
At this moment, Gu Qiongzhi suddenly felt nauseated. He covered his mouth and retched several times, and then said to Qin Dewei: "Counting the days, what should come has not come, maybe there is something in the body again."
Qin Dewei: ""
What kind of physique is this? It’s so fertile, isn’t it?
Xu Xian's wife in the north was almost anxious, and her body had been unresponsive. She and Wang Lianqing had been working hard during this period, and she also had no response. Why did all the seeds sprout here in Gu Qiongzhi?
Qin Xiang suddenly beamed with joy and said repeatedly: "Okay! Good! More children, more blessings!"
All the previous arguments were meaningless. Gu Qiongzhi was pregnant again, so it was impossible for her to travel and travel hard. She could only stay at home in Nanjing together with her eldest son.
After returning to the house, Qin Dewei comforted Mrs. Gu and said: "There should be no major events in the court next year. I will return to Nanjing after I find a way."
Gu Qiongzhi was both proud of her pregnancy, but also a little sad: "Now that my husband is gone, I'm afraid we'll be apart for another year at least, but I don't have a few good years left."
Qin Dewei couldn't help it either. This was the kind of eunuch travel that often made the ancients sigh.
The traffic conditions between the north and the south are pretty good, but those whose hometowns are in Yunnan and Guizhou are in more trouble.
He took up his pen and left a parting poem to Mrs. Gu: "The red bean tree in the south of the Yangtze River has a yearning for each leaf. The red beans can still be used up, but the love will last forever."
Before leaving, the last banquet was with Xu Shi'an, Gao Changjiang, Xing Yifeng and other people who were closest to him.
Qin Dewei asked: "What ambitions do you have in the future?"
Xing Yifeng had just been freed from Ding You's system and said firmly: "Continue studying and prepare for the provincial examination next year!
Even you, Qin Banqiao, can pass the exam and become the top scholar, but I don't believe that I can't pass the exam."
Another relative and friend who felt that Qin Dewei had lowered the threshold for the number one scholar. After all, it was Qin Dewei who was directed by Xing Yifeng during the scholar examination.
Qin Dewei didn't want to talk to Xing Yifeng, so he turned to Gao Changjiang and asked, "What about you?"
Gao Changjiang also said: "I also want to prepare for the provincial examination. Even you, Qin Banqiao, can get the top prize."
Qin Dewei, who couldn't bear it anymore, slapped him in the face and interrupted Gao's words. Don't you, Gao Changjiang, know what your level is?
Others can say weird things about the No. 1 Scholar, but you, Gao Changjiang, are not qualified!
Then he shouted: "I don't think you should take the exam, you have no future! The title of scholar is enough, why not become a Confucian businessman!"
If you are willing, learn more about bank affairs, it will be of great use in the future!"
Gao Changjiang protested: "I also have a family business to inherit."
Qin Dewei said: "Then I'll tell your father that you don't need to inherit the family business of this restaurant!"
Then Qin Dewei asked brother Xu Laosan: "What are your plans?"
Xu Shi'an sighed: "I've had enough fun in the past few years. It's boring when you're not in Nanjing.
I have an idea, pick up King Hui of Liang and read it again, and try it in the martial arts examination, maybe I can get the top prize in martial arts."
Qin Dewei praised this and said: "That's right! You have finally matured! The world is so big, go out and see it while you are young!
Taking the martial arts examination is also a way. There will be many things going on in the future, and there will always be a place for you to use your skills."
Finally, Qin Dewei raised the wine cup and blessed: "Whether you have aspirations in liberal arts, martial arts, or business, you will have a bright future!"
On August 20, the fifteenth year of Jiajing's reign, Qin Dewei bid farewell to Nanjing again and took Wang Lianqing and her five "daughters" north to the capital.
Compared with last time, the team returning to the capital was much larger.
Not only did Wang Lianqing's group of people increase, but there was also a group of bank business backbones who were preparing to open a new account in the capital.
