The day before the Lantern Festival, Yang Qiuchi and his party finally arrived in the capital.

The weather was very good this day. Yang Qiuchi's old friends, Lord Gu, Jia Hanlin, Ma Du of Jinyiwei from the capital, Niu Dahai and others had already set up a jar of good wine and waited at the ten-mile long pavilion of the capital with more than ten official sedan chairs. In addition, Lord Li, Minister of Rites and Lord Gong, Minister of Works, also came to greet him.

Although the six ministers of the Ministry of Justice are the second rank, Yang Qiuchi is the best rank, which is the best rank. Besides, Yang Qiuchi was invited by the emperor to spend the Lantern Festival in the capital. Of course, the Ministry of Rites has to come forward. The Ministry of Works came forward mainly to handle the handover with Yang Qiuchi.

When Emperor Chengzu of Ming Dynasty awarded Yang Qiuchi as the Lord of Zhenyuan, he had ordered the Ministry of Works to allocate public funds to build the Earl Mansion for Yang Qiuchi in the capital. This Earl Mansion was built a month ago.

When friends met, they were very jealous. They drank a large jar of old cellars in the ten-mile long pavilion, and then they got on the official sedan chair to welcome them into the capital. Under the leadership of Lord Gong, the Minister of Works, they came to Yang Qiuchi's new home in the capital.

Yang Qiuchi got off the official sedan chair and looked up. Hey! What a mighty and majestic mansion!

The two stone lions on both sides of the gate are majestic, and the steps of dozens of steps make the gate particularly majestic. There are lights on the gate, and a large plaque with black background characters hanging above the beams. It is written in official script with seven gold-distilled characters "Yuan Mansion of Zhenyuan Bo" shining brightly.

Yang Qiuchi touched his chin and admired it proudly. The emperor was really good to him. He gave him such a big house. In this way, it didn't seem like he wanted to "cook at him with a dead rabbit and a dog". He couldn't help but feel a little calm.

Yang's mother and others also got out of the sedan chair and were very happy to see the majestic and grand mansion.

When Yang Qiuchi came out, he needed to settle down at home first. Fortunately, the home purchases were already fully purchased during the construction of Yang Mansion. He could move in immediately. Minister Li and others sent him to the gate of Yang Mansion and said goodbye. Come and visit him next day.

After seeing off a few old friends, Yang Qiuchi and his family entered their new home.

The temporary management of the Yang Mansion was a fifth-rank official from the Ministry of Works. He led Yang Qiuchi and others to inspect the Yang Mansion in the vast land. This was given by the emperor. There is a saying that "no matter how big a fortune is, it is not as big as public funds." Since it is the money of the country, the Ministry of Works will not feel sorry for using it. The Yang Mansion covers a wide area, is luxurious in decoration, exquisite layout, and exquisite conception, which is much better than the Wuchang Dijia.

The inspection was completed and the handover was handled. Lord Guan and the management staff said goodbye and left.

The Yang Mansion is too big. Feng Xiaoxue presided over the assignment of Yang's mother, the courtyards of her and her concubines, and of course, Yang Qiuchi's own office and study. Fortunately, Yang's mother brought enough maids and servants this time. Everything was carried out step by step, and each was handled in an orderly manner.

Yunlu is the Princess Qingxi and has her own princess in the capital, but Feng Xiaoxue still prepared a set for her in the Yang Mansion.

Since the Lantern Festival was the next day, there was not much time left. Lord Li, the Minister of Rites, had arranged for officials in charge of rituals in the Ministry of Rites to come to the door in person and teach Yang's mother and others about etiquette.

In the evening, an eunuch came to the palace and announced an order to ask Yang Qiuchi to take Yang's mother with him early the next day, and Feng Xiaoxue went to Jin to meet him in the morning.

That night, Liu Ruobing, Yang Qiuchi and Song Yuner made predictions about what might happen the next day and formulated an emergency plan. They were really not afraid of ten thousand, but feared that they were just in case.

The three agreed that since Liu Ruobing and Song Yuner were not summoned by Shengxuan, they could not enter the Golden Palace. They could only wait outside the court gate. If Yang Qiuchi was in danger of going to court, they would use his thunderbolt (Type 77 pistol). Both Liu Ruobing and Song Yuner had seen the power of this thunderbolt and knew that no one in the world could defeat him. The emperor and the others did not know that Yang Qiuchi had this secret weapon. When they found that something was wrong, they first shot and killed Eunuch Li and other masters on the spot, and immediately suppressed the emperor, so that they could suppress others.

Liu Ruobing and the others heard the loud thunderbolt sound outside the gate, immediately rushed in, responded to Yang Qiuchi and the others, took the emperor hostage and escaped from the capital, and tried to escape overseas. With peerless masters like Liu Ruobing and the emperor as hostages, it was not too big a problem.

At this time, the concierge came to report that the Jinyiwei deputy Qianhu Ma Du and Niu Dahai came to visit.

Yang Qiuchi was a little surprised. What were these two people doing at this time? After welcoming them in the hall, we made a few remarks. Both of them were straightforward and called each other brothers. They didn't know each other. Ma Du asked straight to the point: "Brother, I want to come and ask, when are you going to visit the commander Ji Gangji?"

Yang Qiuchi was stunned. He was a nerd in his previous life. Later, although he became a high-ranking official, he was busy solving cases everywhere and never officially experienced the officialdom. He felt a little embarrassed and said, "This... Lord Ji didn't mean to summon me."

Ma Du and Niu Dahai looked at each other and smiled. Ma Du said, "We guessed that you would answer like this. Brother, according to your temper, how can you be in the capital in the future?"

Niu Dahai also said, "Yes, brother, we both worry that you are too straight-hearted, so we came to find you late at night. You are Lord Ji's special envoy. If you don't go to see him when you arrive in the capital, is that reasonable? Don't say Lord Ji, even if we are here, you won't be able to say anything, right?"

Yang Qiuchi scratched his head, feeling a little embarrassed: "I thought that I wouldn't meet you tomorrow or celebrate the Lantern Festival?" Seeing Ma Du and Niu Dahai smiled bitterly, Yang Qiuchi knew that he was thinking too simply and hurriedly said, "Then I'll visit Lord Ji tonight."

Ma Du slapped his thigh: "That's right!"

The two of them immediately explained Ji Gang's personality and hobbies to Yang Qiuchi. Yang Qiuchi learned that Ji Gang's favorite thing was money, so he sighed and asked for nothing else. He had money now. He immediately ordered to prepare a heavy gift.

Yang Qiuchi knew the importance of the gold bricks clearly. He believed that with strong financial resources as a backing, he would be invincible to become an official. So this time he came and brought enough gold, silver and jewelry to prepare for the land.

The gift list given to commander Ji Gang was opened. Ma Du and Niu Dahai opened their eyes in surprise, and their tongues stretched out and could not shrink back for a long time. They knew that Yang Qiuchi was rich, but they didn't know that he was so rich.

Yang Qiuchi went to the back hall to talk about this matter with Liu Ruobing and Song Yuner. After the two analyzed that since the emperor sent an imperial edict to summon him, Ji Gang would not take action before he met the emperor, so there should be no danger tonight. However, Liu Ruobing and Song Yuner were still worried and wanted to pretend to be followers and go there.

Accompanied by Ma Du and Niu Dahai, Yang Qiuchi took the official sedan chair and brought the guards to Ji Gang's residence of the commander of the Jinyiwei. Others should not participate in such private meetings, so after arriving, Ma Du and Niu Dahai said goodbye and went back.

After Yang Qiuchi presented the gift and gift list, he waited for a moment. The gate of Ji Mansion opened wide and let Yang Qiuchi and others in. He went straight to the living room and presented incense tea. Liu Ruobing and Song Yuner dressed as personal followers and stood behind Yang Qiuchi. The few sashes of gifts were placed in the middle of the living room.

After a while, a squad leader sang loudly, "The most wielding Lord Ji Gang and Ji are here-!"

Immediately, a hearty laugh came from the back hall: "Mr. Yang, you are here!" Turning the screen, a burly man with thick eyebrows and big eyes walked into the living room.

Yang Qiuchi felt a little strange. This hero of Ji Gang was still handsome. He hurriedly got up and bowed to salute: "I am humble to Yang Qiuchi, please see the commander."

Ji Gang laughed loudly, walked to Yang Qiuchi, grabbed one arm with one hand, and patted Yang Qiuchi's shoulder with the other: "Yeah! My body is quite strong, it's a good piece of material for our Jinyiwei!" He glanced at the gifts in the living room, a smile of satisfaction appeared on the corner of his mouth, and patted Yang Qiuchi's shoulder with heavy pressure, "Qiuchi, you will be your own brothers in the future, so you will be exempted from these common etiquettes. Hahaha, please sit down."

Seeing this generous gift, Ji Gang called Yang Qiuchi his name, obviously showing that he had regarded him as his own person. Yang Qiuchi smiled and said, "Thank you, Lord Ji." He sat down with his robe. The shoulder was patted by Ji Gang, so he secretly cracked his mouth.

Ji Gang was born in martial arts and practiced martial arts since he was a child. He rode horses and archery. During the Jingnan Campaign, Ji Gang took the initiative to join Zhu Di's army and served as Zhu Di's personal guard. Since then, Ji Gang followed Zhu Di in many battles and was once known for his combat twins.

So Ji Gang almost broke up Yang Qiuchi with this slap. Fortunately, he had practiced his internal skills with Song Yuner for more than half a year, and his body was much stronger, otherwise he would have been embarrassed on the spot.

Liu Ruobing and Song Yuner saw it, but they didn't see that Ji Gang showed any murderous intentions, so they remained silent.

Ji Gang looked at Liu Ruobing and Song Yuner behind Yang Qiuchi, and laughed and said, "Qiuchi, the two concubines behind you are very tired standing, so please sit down."

Yang Qiuchi was shocked and immediately realized that it must be his two hundred guards who were ambushing Ji Gang's inside line.

This can actually be imagined without any brains. Who is Ji Gang? The head of the secret service agency who specializes in collecting intelligence! He gave himself an important position of commanding and envoys, and had the privilege of taking action first and then reporting. Of course, he had to arrange several insiders to strictly control himself in case of accidents.
