Chapter 240 Xue Pan returns to the capital
It is October 15th, the tenth year of Orthodoxy, and there are still three days before the Holy Shou Festival.
The Emperor's seventieth birthday can be regarded as a universal celebration. Under the planning and arrangement of Shuntian Mansion, the entire city of Luoyang was decorated with lights.
When Xue Pan entered the city with his motorcade, he was immediately attracted by the prosperity of the capital, and for a moment he felt itchy and unbearable.
How many flower houses are there in Beijing where the girls are pretty and have weird ways of playing?
Thinking of this, Xue Pan felt like a cat scratching his head, and he wanted to experience it right away. Fan.
"Brother Xue"
From a distance, Jia Lian shouted, but he almost let it slip again.
"Second Brother Lian" Xue Pan dismounted and went to greet him.
"Brother Xue, I've finally been waiting for you to come. It was a good time to have lunch along the way. Is the house ready? I'm just waiting for you to come over."
Jia Lian showed great enthusiasm. To be more precise, he showed enthusiasm on behalf of the Jia family.
There is no way, now the Jia family is in turmoil, and they can't borrow support from Yuanchun. Finally, someone from the Xue family works as an errand in Kunning Palace, and is highly appreciated by the Queen. This makes the Jia family not value this relationship. .
Xue Pan looked embarrassed, "But I have brought so many people here, so I have to settle them down first."
There were nearly a hundred foreigners who came to Beijing with him, and settling them was not a good idea. An easy thing.
Xue Pan really doesn’t feel at ease if he doesn’t finish the errands himself.
"You have a plan for this"
"I have ordered people to rent a house in the city in advance, and I just brought them there. It's just that I haven't done it yet when I first arrived in the capital. I am familiar with the situation, but I need someone suitable to help me run around."
The settlement of more than a hundred people is not only about finding a place to live, but also taking into account food, drink, diarrhea, sores, and diseases.
For more than three months, Xue Pan has grown a lot by personally overseeing such a big event.
"It's a simple matter. I'll find someone to take care of you."
At this point, Jia Lian turned around and shouted, "Yun'er, come here."
Part 1 When she had a conflict with the Qin family for the first time, Jia Yun ran around to investigate, and Jia Lian saw her sincerity.
Later, he gave Jia Yun several tasks, each of which was done in an honest and frank manner. As a result, Jia Lian appreciated his nephew even more and brought him here to greet him today.
"Second Uncle"
"This is your Uncle Xue"
Although he is similar in age to Xue Pan, Jia Yun did not hesitate to salute "I have met Xue Pan" "Uncle"
"This is Yun'er. He always handles things properly. He is overseeing the renovation of your house and it has been completed properly."
"Ask him to help you take care of these people." , you can never go wrong."
Xue Pan looked Jia Yun up and down, then looked at Jia Lian and said, "Since it was recommended by the second brother Lian, of course it can't be wrong."
Seeing Xue Pan Jia Lian was overjoyed when he agreed. He was running an errand for Zhu Jinghong.benefit.
"Okay, let's settle the people first." Jia Lian was afraid that Xue Pan would regret it.
"That's right"
Nancheng has many houses and the rent is relatively cheap, making it a good place for large numbers of residents to relocate.
The Xue family directly rented an alley, with a total of more than 20 small courtyards for housing, and each person had a separate room.
The servants of the Xue family are already waiting, and Xue Pan can deliver the goods directly as soon as he arrives.
"Uncle Qi, I will stay here. You have to keep an eye on me so that nothing happens to you."
In the alley, Xue Pan seriously explained to the middle-aged man in front of him that this His uncle's name is Xue Li.
"If something happens, please discuss it with me, nephew Yun, and you will understand."
"Brother Pan, don't worry, uncle Qi has been negligent along the way." Li asked, patting his chest.
Xue Baochai was selected as an attendant and received a commendation from the queen. In addition, the events involving Zhu Jinghong brothers and the Xue family all showed that the status of this big family was stable.
So now, Xue Pan's words are an imperial edict in the Xue family. There are no longer a few people who fawn over him, and Xue Li is just one of them.
"I still trust Uncle Qi in his work."
After explaining in detail, Xue Pan was taken away by Jia Lian, and they arrived at Rongguo Mansion half an hour later.
In Rongguo Mansion, because there were distinguished guests visiting today, the men of both houses gathered in Rongxi Hall, even Jia Baoyu was no exception.
"It is said that one of Zhasak's three envoys has died. This is true."
Being bored, Jia She talked about the gifts given by Wuying Palace in the past two days. Although he was unable to attend the banquet, he heard a lot of news.
At this time, Jia Zheng said, "The Holy Father did not blame the Thirteenth Master for this, which shows that he has long been dissatisfied with the Zhasak people."
When mentioning these things, the men present were surprised. Listening, some people were too distracted to listen and thought about other things. Only Jia Zhen was frightened.
In his opinion, his life was saved from Zhu Jinghong's hands. He will never forget the cold feeling of the knife on his neck that day in the palace.
Because it was Xue Baochai's kind words that made Zhu Jinghong show mercy, he was particularly grateful to the Xue family, so he was looking forward to Xue Pan's arrival and planned to entertain the Xue brother.
"With the chaos in the northwest, there will be a battle sooner or later. Maybe the Holy One doesn't want to delay it any longer," Jia She stroked his beard and said thoughtfully.
Jia Zheng raised an objection: "There are not many additional troops in the Beijing camp, so it doesn't look like we are going to start a fight."
"Who knows?"
These topics can be heard. Jia Baoyu wanted to refute, but in the end he held back his words.
Today, Jia Zheng was becoming more and more harsh on him, giving him a slap in the face at every turn. He no longer dared to tell "lies" anymore.
At this moment, he only expected that Brother Xue, who was lifted into the sky by his elders, was also a knowledgeable and interesting person.
In Jia Baoyu's view, although Xue Baochai's "personality" is not very good, his knowledge is still very good, and her brother is no different.
Everyone talked for a while, and finally someone outside reported that Jia Lian had returned with Xue Pan.
"Let's go and greet him." Jia She stood up first.
Compared to when Baochai and her daughter arrived at the house, welcoming Xue Pan today was undoubtedly much more solemn. After all, things are different now.
As Xue Pan entered through the main entrance of Rongguo Mansion, he saw a line of people standing outside the hanging flower gate in front of him. They all had extraordinary bearings and rich demeanor, so they knew that they were the heads of Rongguo Mansion.
"That's my father in the middle, the one on the left is my second uncle, the one on the right is Brother Zhen, and the one standing next to him is"
When Jia Lian introduced them one by one, Jia She was already there. He walked over first, with a warm smile on his face.
"Brother Pan, I've finally come to you. It's been a hard journey"
"I've met my uncle"
"I've met my uncle"

Xue Pan greeted everyone greeted by the Jia family one by one.
Seeing how polite he was, Jia Baoyu, who was standing behind him, had a good impression of him, so he also stepped forward to speak.
"Brother Xue, I heard that you brought many foreigners to Beijing, but I don't know where these people are. Let us see them."
"This is"
Seeing that Baoyu was young and pretty, Xue Pan immediately wanted to make friends.
Just listen to Jia Lian reply "This is Baoyu"
"Oh, it turns out to be Brother Bao"
You can hear the disappointment in Xue Pan's tone, It's hard for him to do anything just because of his cousins.
"Speaking of these foreigners, hehe, this is a task assigned by the Thirteenth Master. I have been busy in Jinling for more than two months, including two trips to sea to get rid of these people."
When Xue Pan said this, he meant to show off, just because it was indeed worth showing off. Not everyone could be so trusted by the royal family.
"If Brother Pan can win the respect of the Thirteenth Master, his future will be unlimited." Jia Zhen sent a flattery at the right time.
Although Xue Pan doesn't even have an official status, in this world now, having a relationship with the royal family is the most important thing.
"Brother Zhen, I just want to do the job well and not let the Thirteenth Master down. I don't dare to think too much about other things." Please remember to bookmark it. The latest and fastest website without anti-theft is free to find and add books. You can add QQ group 952868558
