Chapter 116: Sending a Letter to an Old Enemy(1/2)

Wan Jinquan was walking back and forth in the room at the moment.

"After we got married, it was difficult for the Duke of Wei to live in again. Although that place is good, it is always crowded with people. My place is full of men, so it is better to move out. In this way, I have to find a house..."

As he said that, he was impatient to pull Miao Miao out to find a house.

"It's better for us to go out to look for a guy today..."

Miao Miao blushed and broke free from his hands.

"You are impatient. I am teaching my apprentice in Hangzhou. I still have to go back and explain to you. There are still a lot of things at home!"

Wan Jinquan realized that he was anxious and said with a smile,

"I'll accompany you back to Hangzhou..."

The two of them were discussing going back to Hangzhou. Wu Xin'an didn't stop him and watched them pay the bill on the counter with a smile. Wan Jinquan returned to the Duke's Mansion to claim the leave. Then he went outside the city to board a passenger ship back to Hangzhou. Wu Xin'an sent them out of the city and watched them leave and when they returned home, it was already time to hold the lights.

"Miss! Miss!"

Mother Guan greeted her with a smile, holding a letter in her hand.

"Miss, someone is delivering a letter from the other end of the capital!"

"Beijing?"

Wu Xinan immediately thought of Doctor Jin and Pei He.

"By the way, they must have settled down and sent me a letter!"

I hurriedly picked up the seal and opened it and saw that what was written on the head was

"Girl, let's leave for a few months, everything will be fine..."

It was indeed a letter from Doctor Jin. The letter said that they had arrived in the capital and everything was fine so that she didn't have to worry about it. Doctor Jin also knew about their family in Nanjing. There was also a prescription attached to the letter, asking her to take medicine according to the prescription. After taking it for a month, she would write to Doctor Jin to describe her physical condition, and then change the medicine and make the prescription.

"...This is a prescription for regulating the body. If you take it according to the method above, it will be of great benefit to your body..."

Doctor Jin has that straightforward character. He just gave the answer to what he should have done in just a few sentences. He only mentioned it in the last sentence.

"We are now living in the Jinyiwei Yamen in the Beijing City. If we want to deliver a letter, we can entrust Feng Yue, Nanjing Jinyiwei..."

The following sign is the three words "Golden Eight Tales". Wu Xin'an smiled after seeing it.

"It turns out that Uncle Jin is called Jin Baliang!"

No wonder that old man loves money!

After reading Dr. Jin's letter, another piece of paper was attached to the back. Looking at the elegant handwriting, you will know that it was Pei He's, but there are only four words.

"Hello, don't worry!"

Just four words, through the letter paper, Wu Xin'an could think of the indifferent Pei He, who was holding up his pen and writing a letter with a cold look on his face. As she looked at it, most of them were unwilling to write these four words, and most of them were forced by Dr. Jin.

Wu Xinan laughed and told Zhiniao,

"Go to the study to polish the ink, I want to reply to my wife!"

Wu Xinan replied to two letters, but it took two days. One reason she talked too much, but the other reason she was too big and writing too slowly. One night was not enough, so it took two days to finish the letter.

The letter was written and naturally had to be sent out. She remembered that Dr. Jin's letter told her to find Feng Yue from the Nanjing Jinyiwei yamen, so she ordered someone to take a cart and brought Du Juan beside her.

"Let's go out!"

When he got outside, he got on the carriage and Wu Xin'an asked Wang Yong who was driving the carriage.

"Can Wang Huyuan know where the Nanjing Jinyiwei Yamen is?"

Wang Yong responded,

"This... I really don't know if I want to go down and ask you for information?"

Wu Xinan responded,

"It's okay, just go all the way and ask, I think it's easy to find."

So I went out of Datong Street and asked all the way. It turned out that the Jinyiwei Yamen was on the Baihu Street outside the Forbidden City in Nanjing. There were many yamen on the Baihu Street. The Jinyiwei Yamen was sandwiched between the Tongzhengsi and the Flagbearers Department, which was easy to find. I only asked people about the Jinyiwei along the way, but I got a lot of strange eyes.

After all, the Jinyiwei has a reputation. No matter the common officials, they will bow their heads and walk around in front of the Jinyiwei yamen. They have not seen anyone take the initiative to inquire about Jinyiwei.

Wang Yong drove the car all the way to Baihu Street. When he arrived at the gate of the Jinyiwei, he stopped the carriage. Wu Xinan took the carriage and looked at it. He saw that the famous Jinyiwei yamen, except for the famous Jinyiwei yamen standing outside wearing flying fish suits and embroidered spring swords, the rest were just like the next yamen, and there was nothing special about it.

Wang Yong jumped out of the car and saluted the strongman who was guarding the gate.

"I'm sorry, can you ask Feng Yue, the Jinyiwei, is Mr. Feng here?"

The strong man who was guarding the gate had seen the carriage and asked when he heard this.

"Who are you? What's the matter with us thousand-household masters?"

"Thousand Houses?"

Wang Yong was shocked when he heard this. How could our eldest lady know the Qianhu, the Jinyiwei?

Thinking about it,

"Our lady has a letter to send to the Jinyiwei in Beijing. She said she wanted to send the letter, so she came to find Mr. Feng, the Jinyiwei in Nanjing!"

The two strong men looked at each other and replied,

"Wait outside, let's go in and report!"

"Hard work!Hard work!"

They were waiting outside, and soon people came out to report.

"Our Lord Qianhu said that this is the case, so I'll let you hand over the letter to us and bring it in!"

Wang Yong went over to report to Wu Xinan as he said. Wu Xinan thought about it and took out the letter.

"Give it to them!"

Du Juan beside him said a little worriedly,

"Miss, I just handed over the letter like this, why didn't I even meet someone?"

Wu Xinan responded,

"That's the yamen of the Jinyiwei. I am the daughter of the official family. It would be bad if I go in. This is the most appropriate way!"

That Feng Yue is very careful and must know his identity!

So he handed over the letter, Wang Yong thanked the two strong men again, and then turned around and asked,

"Miss, are we going home now?"

Wu Xinan looked around and said,

"We have never seen this Nanjing city yet. Let's go there wherever there is lively..."

"yes!"

When Wang Yong got the order, he drove a car around Jinling City.

They are from Hangzhou. If they are prosperous and lively, Hangzhou City is comparable to Jinling City. Hangzhou has the most wealthy businessmen and magnificent pedestrians. You can see gorgeously dressed pedestrians everywhere on the street. When you arrive in Jinling City, you can not only see gorgeously dressed pedestrians, but also many nobles and royal relatives. You can see many tall horses and magnificent servants coming and going on the street. Those magnificently decorated carriages, with bright flags or family emblems on the front of the carriage, you can tell that they are noble people from the noble families who are traveling.

Wu Xin'an looked all the way, and felt that the city walls of Nanjing were tall and the buildings were simple. It was filled with a sense of historical heaviness that was different from the graceful and gentle water town of the south of the Yangtze River.

After leaving for about an hour, it was noon. Wu Xin'an lifted the curtain and saw signs standing on the street in front of him, high flags fluttering in the wind, and the big "wine" word swayed, making the wine insects in the belly move.

"Wang Huyuan, let's find a restaurant here and have lunch outside today!"

Wu Xin'an is now uncontrollable. Apart from Wu Hongwen's question sometimes, Xiao Cheng mostly treats her as if she is missing, not to mention that Xiao Cheng is busy holding a banquet for a while, so she has no time to care about her.

The master and servant chose a restaurant that looked grand and stopped the carriage. The youngest second came up and drove the carriage to the back. Wu Xin'an took the two in and asked the shopkeeper.

"Shopkeeper, can I have a private room?"

The shopkeeper looked at her and said with a polite smile.

"Oh! But unfortunately... the private rooms are full today. If you don't dislike it, would you please sit in the lobby?"

After saying that, he pointed to the hall, there were many tables in the lobby, and there were also many Eight Immortals tables by the window around him, but they were blocked by thin bamboo curtains. Although they were not as tight as the private room, they were considered private. He nodded immediately.

"Just here!"

The waiter came up and led the three of them over. Wu Xinan sat down and said to the two.

"You don't tell any rules when you come out today, just sit and eat well!"

The two knew her temperament and responded, and then sat down. Wu Xinan said to the waiter standing beside him.

"What are some of your specialty good dishes? Pick up the good ones, give us four or five items, and then make a pot of good wine!"

The waiter said with a smile,

"We have a lot of good wine here. I wonder which one you want to eat, Miss..."

As he said, he paused,

"There are the best Jinhua wine, the autumn dew is white, the roasted knife from the capital, the bamboo leaves are green... There are also the wines from the Western Regions that my daughter likes, and the osmanthus wine, green plum wine, and rose wine we make..."

Wu Xinan listened to the cuckoo,

"Give my girl a pot of osmanthus wine..."
