The second chapter, the ninth chapter, took office (5)

That night, Yang Yi wrote two letters, one to Xiang Rong and the other to Qishan. In his letter to the two, Yang Yi said that the current military emergency in Jiangnan is the most taboo thing about the local area. The matter in Shanghai is that it sounds a wake-up call, and Suzhou cannot be in chaos anymore.

The Suzhou prefect has no law and cleverly established a name to collect people's fat and ointment. This is the root of the disaster. In the current emergency situation, he cannot be kept. He also said that he decided to participate in the money and hoped to get their support.

Early the next morning, Yang Yi sent someone to send the letter to Xiang Rong, and came to Suzhou General's Mansion with another letter and two gifts he had prepared overnight.

Yang Yi had just left the house, and Wusun got the news. It turned out that although Wusun was a rough man, he also had some carefulness. The popular man in Xianfeng's eyes at Yang Yi would never dare to neglect him. Besides, I heard that Yang Yi was very good at having a good relationship with foreigners, so I had sent people to stay in the inn overnight and report it immediately whenever there was Yang Yi's news. In addition, Yang Yi did not make a big deal in the end, which was considered as giving him face.

Yang Yi arrived at the door, and Wusun was already standing at the door to greet him.

"Mr. Yang, I have been waiting for you to take over. Why is it here now? It's so hard for brothers to wait." Wusun stepped forward to salute.

Yang Yi also quickly stepped forward and returned the greeting: "You are polite, I have been looking forward to you for a long time. Uncle Ling also takes care of you. Brothers are late to visit, so I offended you." As they said that, they even held hands, as if they hadn't seen an old friend for many years.

"Please" and "Please" the two of them were humble, and in the end, Wusun took the lead in.

After the host and guest sat down, Yang Yi shouted: "Come on, carry the things up."

As he said that, Li Zhuzi brought a few brothers to carry a few boxes.

"Is this?" Wusun asked:

"Mr. Ling Shuqishan's birthday is approaching. Brothers have prepared some small gifts. I'll give it a hand. There is also a little brother's little meaning to be filial to the old lady. Please accept it with a smile." Yang Yi waved, and Li Zhuzi came over to prevent the coffee table with an exquisite box. Wusun looked at Yang Yi and said, "Brother Yang, you are so polite. This brother is really embarrassed."

"I heard that the old lady is devoted to the Buddha. I have only made a few gadgets to please the old lady. I am afraid that the adults will look down on it." Yang Yi smiled and said:

"Then I'll open it and take a look?" Wusun said: Yang nodded and signaled.

Wusun opened the box and was stunned. This was really a little meaning. A string of inconspicuous Buddhist beads and an ordinary jade Buddha. Wusun cursed in his heart, a stingy guy. But his face did not show it. After someone sent the thing to the old lady in the backyard, both sides were polite. Yang repeatedly asked Wusun to deliver the gift to Qishan and agreed to officially hand over tomorrow. Yang Yi would get up and say goodbye. Wusun was also very dissatisfied with Yang Yi's stingy. He had no intention of leaving, so he wanted to see him off.

At this moment, a maid ran into the backyard. It seemed that she was running very quickly. She looked panting. After coming in, she said optimistically to the two of them, Wanfu said, "Who gave the gift just now? Please wait a little longer. The old lady came out now and said she wanted to thank her in person."

You can't say that although Wusun is a bastard, he has one thing in mind, that is, he is extremely filial to this widow. Speaking of which, the old lady has been vegetarian and worshiping Buddha for many years, it is rare to see anyone. Today, she was actually shocked by the inconspicuous thing that Yang Yi gave her, which surprised Wusun.

When it comes to Yang Yi sting, it is actually Wusun himself who doesn’t know the goods. This Buddhist bead is made of thousands of years of agarwood and is polished by the best craftsmen. It is warm in his hand like soft jade, and a faint fragrance is faintly revealed. This is a treasure that people who believe in Buddhism have money. As for the jade Buddha, it is made of high-quality Lantian jade carvings. In addition to the workmanship surprises, it also warms up smoke every day, and faces it for a long time that is said to be able to eliminate disasters and ward off evil spirits. Regardless of the value, for devout Buddhists, it is a priceless treasure for devulging Buddhists.

After a while, the old lady came out with the help of the maid. Yang Yi quickly stepped forward and bowed: "My younger brother Yang Yi, the small gift is not respectful, which actually alarmed the old lady, which made me really frightened and worried."

The old lady looked kind-hearted. She smiled very happily when she got something she liked today. She pointed to Wusun and said to Yang Yixiao:

"I am such an incompetent child. He is a vulgar man. He doesn't know anything about things. He must have neglected the customers, right?" He said, pointing at Wusun and scolding:

"You!! You are fascinated by the common things like gold, silver and jewelry on weekdays. When will it grow?"

Yang Yi quickly took over the conversation: "Where are you talking about, old lady? There is nothing to do."

"Don't talk to him. I gave birth to this kid. I know what he is best." The old lady didn't care about Wusun's embarrassment on the side and continued to talk to Yang Yi.

"The things are too expensive, and the old woman is afraid that she can't bear it. If she doesn't come out to thank her in person, I'm uneasy."

"See what you always say, aren't you shameful? Being able to respect you is a blessing for the younger generation." Yang Yi said:

"I like this child." As he said that, the old lady turned around and said to Wusun, "What are you still being stunned? Hurry up and let someone prepare and leave the guests for a meal."

Although Wusun didn't know how valuable the things Yang Yi gave, it was obvious from my mother's attitude that the things were not simple, and she was much more enthusiastic about Yang Yi at that time.

After a banquet, the guests and the host and the guests were happy, and Yang Yi said goodbye and came back.

The next day, Yang Yi and Wusun officially transferred their positions, and three days later, Wusun also took Yang Yi's gift to Jiangbei Camp to take office. During this period, Yang Yi did not provoke Qian Benzhong, and his many visits to Qian Benzhong were also ruthless on the grounds of busy military affairs. Qian Benzhong learned that Yang Yi and Wusun were very close to him and were also very cold to him, so he couldn't help but fall into a panic.

A few days later, Yang Yi received a reply from Xiang Rong and Qishan. Xiang Rong's reply was not much, "Sir, just do it." In just a few words. Qishan's reply first expressed his gratitude to Yang Yi for the gift he sent, and said tactfully that Qian Benzhong had nothing to do with him. Yang Yi thought that anything could be done, but Qishan also expressed his concerns, saying that Qian Benzhong had many backers in the court, and hoped that Yang Yi would act cautiously. Of course, once the emperor issued an order to investigate, he would never stop him.
