While talking, the old cat ran out again. This time, there was a big pheasant in his mouth with very bright and beautiful tail feathers. But already dead, Fu Qiuning shook his head and said, "it's a pity to die, otherwise it's strange to keep it."

Cui Shi smiled and said, "grandma, I felt this way after staying here for such a long time. Otherwise, what kind of animals didn't exist in the national government? Needless to say, rabbits and pheasants. There are still several sika deer in the backyard. There are several big cranes in grandma Wan's Qingwan Pavilion and your elegant building. What is this pheasant?"

Fu Qiuning said with a smile, "don't say it. I'm really homesick. Six months have passed in the twinkling of an eye. The capital should be in the late autumn with fallen leaves and drizzling rain. I don't know how the old prince and his wife are. Should aunt Huo get better? It's hard for the fourth aunt to take care of her mother alone."

Yuelan said with a smile, "grandma is really kind-hearted. I'm still thinking about them now. If Xiangmian knows, I'll be very grateful. Alas! I'm also homesick, but I've been here for half a year. I can't return to Beijing so soon, even if I'm going to spend this year."

Cui Shi hurriedly said, "there's nothing wrong with living here. This is the south. There are many specialties. It's very different from the north. It's also fun to send back some delicious and unique gifts at that time. She's afraid that the old lady and his wife will miss you and be in Beijing..." she suddenly realized that she wanted to comfort the two sisters. How can she say the last thing, But he added these worries, so he quickly shut up.

After pinching off the mushroom stems, the sun slowly fell to the side of the mountain. The old cat caught five or six pheasants and rabbits. At this time, he was too tired to lie on the ground licking his hair. Fu Qiuning looked funny. He thought that maybe this guy ate at noon and worked hard in the afternoon. First, he caught some prey to please me, and second, he just digested the food.

Just thinking, she saw a group of people coming here from a distance. She knew it must be hunters. Sure enough, in less than half an hour, all the people who went out hunting came back one after another. After calculation, Jin Fengju, the team with the least number of people, gained the most and dragged a yellow sheep back.

Jin Fengju also looked very happy. When he came back, he said to Fu Qiuning, "don't mention that Zhenyi has something. See, he beat these rabbits. Well, I looked at his archery skills. It's very good. I think even if I can't study in the future, I can make a living by going to the army to practice." as soon as the voice fell, I suddenly saw those wild rabbits and pheasants piled around Fu Qiuning, He couldn't help wondering, "eh? Where did this come from? Did the bodyguards fight? This is nonsense. I left them to protect you..."

Before she finished, Fu Qiuning interrupted and listened to her smile: "what's your hurry? Those bodyguards are loyal to their duties and haven't left a step. As for these prey, the old cat took them back. How about it? It's my cat. It's just to give the master a long face. See what you can do. Of course, there are yellow sheep and Swertia, but the rabbit and pheasant don't hunt as much as the old cat?"

Before Jin Fengju could speak, Jin Zhenyi curled his mouth and said, "aunt can't say that. The rabbit pheasant was fun at first, but later it was boring, so my father and I put a lot of them. Otherwise, if they were all hunted down, there would be thirty or forty. My father said that if I couldn't eat them anyway, I'd better let them live."

Fu Qiuning said with a smile, "in this way, it's my charity. Unfortunately, the old cat doesn't understand this. I think if it hadn't been fat and not as strong as before, the pheasants and rabbits in the small forest at the foot of the mountain would have been cleaned up by it."

As he spoke, the campfire and grill had been erected. Fu Qiuning had another pot built, a big pot placed, and a pot of mushroom chicken soup. He only praised the people. Even the bodyguard who had complained on his back was smiling and didn't complain about his job at all.

After two days and one night of fun on Dongfan Island, Jin Fengju took Fu Qiuning and others aboard the ship again in the evening of the next day. When he left, the island owner came again and presented many specialty gifts. Jin Fengju also revealed that the imperial court might bring Dongfan under the jurisdiction of Daning and send officials in the future. It only excited the island owner and thanked him very much.

It turned out that Dongfan produced very little grain and backward education. Some residents on the island saw the prosperity of Daning after going to sea. When they came back, they were envious. Now, if we really bring Dongfan under the jurisdiction of Daning and send officials, then in the future, the imperial court will allocate food, build private schools, and trade with the other side will be much easier. It can be said that the advantages far outweigh the disadvantages. Therefore, the island owners and the people who came to see them off will be happy.

We arrived at Quanzhou port before dark. Jin Fengju returned to the government office. Before he could send Fu Qiuning and others to the back hall, he saw an official running out. When he saw him, he patted his thigh and said, "my Lord, I'm back at last. Come on, please go to the back office to bathe and change clothes with the ladies. The imperial edict will arrive this morning. Get ready to accept the edict."

"Eh? The imperial edict has arrived? Do you know what it is?" Jin Fengju was very surprised when he suddenly heard such a news. He quickly stretched out his hand to let the official go to the door.

The official was also anxious that day. At this time, he didn't feel anything wrong, so he followed Jin Fengju into the backyard from the corner gate and said: "I don't know what's the matter. It's Duke Zhou around the emperor who came to spread the message. How dare you ask? Duke Zhou arrived early this morning and only made everyone busy in the government. He wanted to send someone to find the adult, but Duke Zhou said no. the adult has made great achievements in fighting the Japanese pirates. It's time to have fun and relax. So it shouldn't be an emergency or a bad thing 。”

When the official finished, Jin Fengju gently nodded and couldn't help thinking. Suddenly, the official patted his head and whispered, "I'm really confused. This is the back yamen, where the adult's family members are located. I... why did I break in? Adult, forgive me..."

Jin Fengju said with a smile, "it doesn't matter. I invited you in. Well, go and tell Grandpa Zhou that I've come back and am bathing and dressing. Please wait a moment." when he saw the official gone, he quickly opened the curtain behind him and asked Fu Qiuning to come down. He said, "prepare quickly. I don't know why the emperor will at this time."

Fu Qiuning said: "I'm also curious at the moment. As the saying goes, the power of heaven is unpredictable. Fortunately, it doesn't seem to be a bad thing to listen to Lord Han's story. Therefore, the husband and wife hurriedly took several children into the hospital and asked each of them to take their girls in to help wash and change clothes. It took them half an hour to pack up. The whole family came to the incense table in the hospital and met Duke Zhou and several friends A royal army and a small eunuch had already been waiting there. They were busy kneeling down.

Jin Fengju was surprised that this will was to announce his return to Beijing to report on his work. However, it was not the official's reinstatement, but the will to command the Gyeonggi camp and the nine city army and horses department, and concurrently serve as the nine gate governor.

That week, after reading the imperial edict, father-in-law said a few words with Jin Fengju. When he entered the house, he saw no one around. Then he smiled quietly and said, "young Marquis, let's get ready to set off. The emperor puts you as an important confidant like a humerus. No one can be favored in front of the imperial court like you. In the future, green clouds will step flat, and a bright future is just around the corner."

Jin Fengju smiled modestly and thought about the emperor's intention in his heart. He secretly said that the Gyeonggi camp was the power of the prince. Why did the emperor send himself? Is it that he has become suspicious of the prince? No, although the prince took advantage of this time to eliminate dissidents and suppress his officials against himself, he has not gone too far after all, let alone some tendency of treachery, Why should the emperor prevent him from reaching this point? Besides... This... Doesn't it give me a hot potato? Can I put my hand in the Gyeonggi camp?

Unable to figure it out, they discussed with Fu Qiuning once, but they didn't come up with a reason. They only knew that it was right to return to Beijing as soon as possible. Therefore, they became busy. And because Jin Fengju's return to Beijing was so sudden that he couldn't wait for the successor magistrate to come, and even if he wanted to wait, the crown prince would not let the new magistrate come in order to slow him down. Therefore, the imperial edict specifically stated that he was asked to select one person from the magistrate's Yamen to take the post of magistrate temporarily.

Jin Fengju knew the nature of his subordinates. He chose one person, Bai Zhang's husband, Bai adult. This is a pie from the sky. You know, although he is the temporary magistrate at this time, as long as there is no major mistake, the temporary hat on his head can be removed in March and may, that is, he can be promoted two levels in a row and jump From the seventh grade official to the fifth grade magistrate.

It's not that the Bai family is so grateful to Jin Fengju that they wish they could offer him a memorial tablet of eternal life every day. Only Fu Qiuning and Jiang WANYING had prepared for three days before they finally cleaned up properly. Perhaps it's because they can return to Beijing. The second grandma Wan remembered the prestige of being in power that day, so she changed her old attitude of looking on coldly and actively helped Fu Qiuning clean up This naturally saved Qiuning a lot of heart, so on the fourth day, a big family embarked on the return journey.

When the carriage came to Quanzhou port, Fu Qiuning only felt that there seemed to be a lot of noise around. It seemed that there were many people. He wondered if the wharf was full of people because of something today? Who knows, when she got off the carriage and looked through the shawl of the hat, she was shocked. At this time, there were a sea of people on the huge wharf, and dozens of people like squires were in Jinfeng Holding something in his hand, Fu Qiuning looked at it and they were giving it to her husband.
