In addition to the raven who looks forward to it every day, the other person who sweeps the bed and waits for it every day is Bingwen.

But after all, he is more steady, not as childish as the raven, nor like him who writes letters every once in a while asking about his return date.

He could only make insidious inquiries.

For example, right now, he is writing a letter.

The letter told Xia Chu that the double swords he asked Wuma Huacai to make were completed. Should he send someone to deliver them to him

If Xia Chu wrote back and said no, then his return date must be approaching.

If Xia Chu writes back and says he wants it, it will be a long time coming.

However, even if he had to send it there, he still knew where Xia Chu was.

You don’t have to do this every day, you don’t know where to put your heart.

After Huo Tianyang's case was solved, Kong Changhui was transferred to the Ministry of Justice and promoted to the position of Minister of Justice. His rank was that of Jie Ji Ming. Both of them were now senior officials of the fourth rank.

Since Xie Jiming took up the post of Minister of Industry, he has been busy renovating Prince Yu's residence all day long.

Because Xiao Yanjun had just been crowned King Yu, and he immediately set off to welcome the bride. When he received the Mongolian princess back, he would get married.

It was definitely too late to build a new mansion, so the emperor gave Xiao Yanjun his uncle's mansion, which had been vacant.

After receiving the imperial edict, the Ministry of Industry led people to start renovation and construction.

Therefore, Xie Jiming was very busy during this period of time.

He was a new official, and he took on such a big project right after he took office.

I don’t know if this luck is good or bad.

The Ministry of Works has always been a fat employee, cutting corners and over-reporting wages. Everyone is well aware of this.

It happened that Xie Jiming came, and he couldn't get enough oil and salt.

It doesn't matter if he doesn't enter alone, but he is still stuck in the position of a waiter.

If he is neither above nor below, the interests of those above and below him will also be slightly lost.

Therefore, he is also very unpopular in the Ministry of Industry.

On the contrary, Kong Changhui, who was transferred to the Criminal Department, lived like a duck in water.

He was a popular figure who had just solved Huo Tianyang's case, and was personally recommended by the nine admirals.

He is also a minister, and the entire criminal department, except the minister, respects him.

The capital city has been stable and peaceful in recent days, and the family members of the prisoners in the prison have been checking in with the people in the Ministry of Punishment every now and then, hoping that their family members can live a better life there.

After all these layers of management, even though Kong Changhui did not accept bribes.

But this life can be considered a good life.

In addition to the two of them, another person who has been promoted recently is Xiang Chengfang.

Zhuo Xiande was sentenced to be beheaded, and his position as envoy was taken by his former head.

The position of the chief courtyard was naturally taken by Xiang Chengfang.

Even though he was only promoted to one rank, his status was far different.

Originally he was just an ordinary imperial doctor, but now he has transformed into the head of the hospital in charge of the imperial physician.

Speaking of Chengfang, he is the most confused person who has been promoted in recent years.

It wasn't until the emperor's imperial decree came down that Xiang Chengfang found out that the skeleton he had inspected a few days ago was actually Admiral Huo's biological brother.

What surprised him even more was that the man with no conscience and no medical ethics was actually Zhuo Xiande, the dean of their imperial hospital.

Only now did Xiang Chengfang realize that when he first went to Dali Temple, there was a profound meaning behind Hu Yingmao's expression of wanting to speak but unable to finish.

It's no wonder that after he completed the inspection, he went to meet Bingwen several times but was repeatedly rejected by him.

If it were him, it would be really hard to say.

It was not until the truth came out and Xiang Chengfang received the reward that he was promoted to the Academy that Bingwen came to congratulate him.

Xiang Chengfang bowed to Bingwen, and if he hadn't been prompted by him that day, he would have read Feiyu's acupuncture records.

Otherwise, he would not be able to accurately determine that the skeleton died under the water hole.

It was also because he examined the red bloody scars on his head and provided strong evidence that he was promoted to the post of Commander-in-Chief by Admiral Huo.

After the dust settled on the Huo Tianyang matter in the capital, Huo Wenshu, the Miss Huo Mansion, welcomed her hair extensions.

Huo Tianxiu has always been reserved and low-key, but this time Huo Wenshu's hair extension ceremony was a grand one.

Most of the famous families in Beijing received the invitations.

He chose the location in Mingxiangyuan. Mingxiangyuan itself is a literati elegant garden that is hard to find, and the dignitaries knew it well.

Huo Tianxiu's move was actually to find a suitable husband for Huo Wenshu.

So, it’s the day of haircut ceremony.

All the children of the aristocratic families who had not married yet gathered in Mingxiang Garden.

Seeing those wild bees and butterflies pounced on Huo Wenshu one after another, Zhao Xingwen stood beside Bingwen, feeling very uncomfortable in his heart.

"General Zhao, if you like it, go ahead. Please don't stand here and ruin the flowers in my courtyard, okay?" Bingwen looked at the petals on the ground and felt that if he didn't say a word, all the flowers in the courtyard would be destroyed. Zhao Xingwen is going to make a fool of himself.

Kong Changhui and Su Qian'an on the side burst out laughing when they heard this.

"You also know that the niece and son-in-law that Admiral Huo prefers is not me." Zhao Xingwen lowered his head with a sad expression, not wanting to look at the dazzling scene over there.

"The key depends on who Miss Huo prefers. If she doesn't like you, Admiral Huo's favor will be in vain. If she likes you, with the status of General Zhao and Lord Xia, I don't believe that this marriage can be proposed. I won’t come down.” Bingwen gave him some serious explanations from the side.

Zhao Xingwen's eyes lit up, and he felt that this statement was quite reasonable. Just when he was about to drive away those wild bees and butterflies with his head held high, a voice sounded outside the door: "Xu Shangshu of the Ministry of Revenue brought his son to congratulate him."

I saw Shangshu Xu Wanjun leading Xu Wenlan and stepping in.

Xu Wenlan was wearing a purple robe embroidered with green patterns today. The robe was trimmed with silver hollow hibiscus flowers, and the snow-white trim embroidered with water patterns complemented the mutton-fat jade hairpin on his head.

He wears a wide jade belt around his waist, is tall and elegant, and holds an ivory folding fan.

Step by step, the extraordinary figure of a graceful noble prince is undoubtedly revealed.

The other children of the aristocratic families in Mingxiang Garden were instantly outclassed.

The rest of the people could only marvel that Xu Wenlan, one of the four great princes in the capital, indeed lived up to his reputation.

Mr. Xu led Xu Wenlan directly to Admiral Huo. Admiral Huo waved to Huo Wenshu and also greeted Mr. Xu.

The children of the aristocratic families who were surrounding Huo Wenshu just now also stepped aside in a wise manner.

Seeing Xu Wenlan and Huo Wenshu getting closer and closer, Bingwen turned his head and looked at Zhao Xingwen beside him.

He had held his head high just now, but all his anger was released again.

At this time, he regained his previous dejection.

The petals began to fold...
