The wedding of Chu Liuxiang and Zheng Ruozeng's daughter Shisan Niang was held in the newly bought mansion in Kunshan County. His parents were worried that they would mistreat the daughter of the Zheng family, so they used the gift money returned by Wang Xiucai's family to purchase this three-story courtyard in Xuanhuafang in the south of the city.

But for hundreds of guests, his place was still too small. Fortunately, the weather had warmed up, so they could set up the table directly on the street. Zhao Hao also specially transferred a group of chefs from Suzhou Wei Ji Xian to cook, and simply set up a buffet in Xuanhuafang. Whoever came could sit down and eat, and the guests were very happy and lively.

The only regret is that the comrades in the garrison area did not have time to attend the wedding, so they had to let Macron, the current chairman of Jiangnan Security Company, "impersonate" the leader of the man's unit.

In fact, it was fine for his comrades not to attend. If they saw how grand Chu Liuxiang's wedding was, Zhao Hao was afraid that they would be jealous...

Chu Liuxiang's parents cried loudly, not knowing whether they were happy or frightened by the extravagant scene. How much money would it cost? Later, they learned that all the expenses were paid by Mr. Zhao, and the old couple finally felt relieved.

When the auspicious time arrived, firecrackers blasted and dragons and lions danced. Chu Liuxiang wore a brand new dark blue woolen police robe, a big red flower tied on his chest, and a flower pinned on his hat and helmet, riding on a snow-white horse. He led a long wedding procession and circled the city in a grand manner, then returned to Xuanhuafang with music and drums.

After the eight-man sedan chair landed steadily inside the door, a five or six-year-old girl in gorgeous clothes came to help the bride out of the sedan chair. The little girl gently pulled the bride's sleeves three times, and the bride, wearing a phoenix crown and a bright red veil on her head, got out of the sedan chair.

When the bride steps out of the sedan chair, she first steps over a red painted wooden 'saddle'. Then the bridesmaid hands the bride a piece of red silk. The groom holds the other end and leads the bride onto the red carpet to the wedding hall to perform the temple ceremony, kneeling three times, kowtow nine times, and bowing six times...

Sister Ma sat next to Mr. Zhao, watching the bride worshipping heaven and earth, and she couldn't help but feel jealous. Only the original wife who was married in a formal way was qualified to ride in the sedan chair and worship heaven and earth. Therefore, when the couple quarreled, the wife often said, "I was carried into the house in a big red sedan chair, not walked into the house!" This is to prove her undisputed status.

As a future concubine, she could only come to the palace to seek the emperor's favor. Even the sedan chair carried by two people was not allowed to be ridden by the emperor.

Sister Ma knew that the current situation was already extremely good, but she still couldn't help feeling a little jealous. There was no way, this person would always be greedy and never satisfied.

Suddenly, her hand was gently held by Zhao Hao. Sister Ma came back to her senses and saw that the young master seemed to have realized something. He smiled and leaned over to whisper in her ear: "I know, the bridal sedan and the worship of heaven and earth will both be yours."

Sister Ma was immediately overjoyed, the bitterness in her heart turned into a pool of spring water, and she tightly intertwined her fingers with the young master. She didn't care what the occasion was, she just looked at him lovingly.

It turns out that the young master knows everything and has always been paying attention to her little emotions... It is easy to find a priceless treasure, but it is hard to find a lover. With such a husband, what else can I be dissatisfied with?

In fact, this time, she reaped what she sowed.

Isn't it all her credit that the straight man at the beginning became such a sweet and caring man now? So, having a good teacher is really important.

"We'll send them off later and sleep together again at night." However, the side effects of education are also obvious. Mr. Zhao's mind is full of improper thoughts now. He is really taking advantage of every opportunity and getting into every hole!

"Yeah." Secretary Ma nodded shyly. She had been cut in line too many times recently and she missed the young master a lot.

~~

After the newlyweds paid homage to heaven and earth, they should have been sent to the bridal chamber. But I don't know if it was arranged or Chu Liuxiang finally got it, he actually brought the bride over to toast Mr. Zhao and Zhao Hao and his son.

Amid the noise of the crowd, Master Zhao drank the toast from the newlyweds in one gulp, then patted Chu Liuxiang on the shoulder and said to everyone emotionally: "The Coast Guard is our patron saint. It not only protects maritime trade, but also allows all of us to have jobs and a good life. It also builds a Great Wall on the sea for the people of Jiangnan, so that the Japanese pirates dare not go out to sea, and naturally they can no longer harass us in Jiangnan!"

"Yes! The Coast Guard is amazing!"

"If anyone dares to slander them again, we will never let him go!"

"It is an honor to be a coast guard officer!" The guests responded loudly, and the atmosphere was extremely warm.

Zhao Shouzheng also said that he would hang a sign saying "Police Family Members Are Honored" on the doorsteps of all the coast guards in the county. He also ordered the head of the village and other community officials to visit and care for them regularly and solve their problems. He also included this matter in the assessment indicators of the county's civilization construction.

Mr. Zhao was very happy today, and he drank a little too much without realizing it, and was finally carried back. Ning An would be returning to Beijing tomorrow, and his mission was completed, so he could finally go back to the government office and sleep peacefully.

His so-called "mission" refers to the development of the water conservancy project of Loujiang River, not to use it as a women's product.

What are some people thinking? Be pure!

Seeing the guards carrying his father into the Moon Gate, Mr. Zhao, who believed that 'the customer is God', couldn't help but shake his head and sigh. 'All the previous efforts have been wasted...'

On this last night before leaving, my father had to spend it unconscious and unable to move. I'm afraid the customer satisfaction rating will be reduced by one star.

He didn't dare to face his godmother's complaints, so he turned and went into the living room opposite the signing room and asked someone to call Xu Weizi.

Xiaozhi was also in Kunshan at the time, but as he was in mourning, he could not attend the wedding, so he waited for his master to come back in the county government office.

Hearing the call, he hurried over, kowtowed to his master, and then explained his purpose.

Xu Weizi first distanced himself from the Duke of Wei's Mansion, saying that his father had said that he didn't need to consider his face, and there was no need for him to lose face for these bastards.

Then Xiao Zhi presented a leather suitcase, which was opened and neatly filled with piles of red banknotes. These were the 200,000 taels of compensation collected by the nobles in the grain transport industry.

"My father said that this is just a small reward. These guys have a lot of money, so the master might as well make a lot of money from them."

"Hmm." Zhao Hao nodded in satisfaction. Even if he was not a good person, he couldn't take his own apprentice away.

He smiled faintly and said, "In fact, I have long wanted to deal with them, but I didn't expect these scumbags to be so cowardly so quickly..."

"If you provoke someone you can't afford to offend, how can they not be scared?" Xu Weizi said with a flattering smile. Seeing Zhao Hao put his legs on the stool, he hurried forward and started to beat his master.

"They are just a bunch of idiots. Master cleaned them up well. He did a great job!"

"Haha, since your father has spoken, and you have come here in person, I can ask my godmother not to report it this time." Young Master Zhao was too lazy to beat around the bush and said directly, "But those who are caught, including Pingjiang Bo's brother, cannot be released. In addition, all the families involved must send their direct descendants to surrender - if we don't let them pay a painful price, how can we make them behave in the future? How can we warn them to follow suit?!"

"Yes, Master is right. You have the evidence in your hand, and my father will be able to control them in the future." Xu Weizi nodded quickly.

"That's right." Zhao Hao was very pleased with the performance of the Xu family father and son. He had sold out Xu Bangrui and taken Xu Weizhi as his apprentice. This investment was a sure win for him.

Thinking of this, he was in a good mood, and nodded with a smile, saying: "Then let your father have a better grasp of it, and come back to pour the night fragrance... Oh no, let your father draw up the list of people who come to surrender. He has the final say on who comes and who doesn't."

"Well, I'd like to thank Master on behalf of my father." Xu Weizi smiled from ear to ear, not looking like someone whose grandfather had just died.

He knew that his master wanted to take the sons of various noble families hostage, so that his father and master could play the good cop and the bad cop respectively and firmly control the power of those Nanjing nobles.

Of course, Mr. Zhao is the most careful person in everything he does, so he will not illegally detain people and give them a handle. At that time, the Caojiang Yamen will sentence these guys to life imprisonment and exile for labor reform for multiple serious crimes such as blocking the river for robbery and attempted kidnapping.

Moreover, robbery and kidnapping are both serious crimes, the kind that cannot be pardoned...

As for the sons of nobles who later surrendered, they were naturally the organizers and planners of the case. The first of all evils was the instigator, so of course they should be dealt with in the same way as the second son of Xu.

Speaking of Xu Bangrui, he and Xu Kun have been working diligently on Xishan Island for almost two years. Even if they have no credit, they have worked hard, and it is time for them to be promoted.

"Then my second uncle won't be the captain anymore?" Xu Weizi was really happy for his second uncle. He didn't expect that after being a playboy all his life, he finally turned over a new leaf and started to make progress.

"Hey, at most he can be the deputy captain, not the captain." Zhao Hao shook his head and said, "Xu Kun has more experience than him, and he loves his job and is dedicated to it. He was even named a model worker last year."

"Oh, that's right." Xu Weizi sighed in agreement, "It's true that they can't compare."

~~

At noon the next day, Mr. Zhao, with dark circles under his eyes, bid farewell to Princess Ning'an at the Zhouxi Bridge Wharf.

In fact, they should have set off early in the morning, but someone had a hangover last night, which made Princess Ning'an, who was full of farewell feelings, feel very regretful.

She was the princess who wanted to be the emperor's younger sister, how could she go back with regrets? So after sobering up this morning, she made love in the painting building before leaving, although it was late...

It was not until the sun was high in the sky and the clouds had cleared and the rain had stopped that Her Royal Highness the Princess was content to let go of Master Zhao, who had not a drop of water left.

Zhao Shouzheng admitted that he was careless and dared not show any expression of finally being liberated. At the dock, he held hands with Ning An, looked at each other with tears in his eyes, and said affectionately:

"The moon waxes and wanes, flowers bloom and fade, thinking of the most painful parting in life. When flowers fade, spring is approaching, when the moon wanes, Mid-Autumn Festival is here, when will people come back after they leave?"

"Don't worry, Zhao Lang, Ning An will try to spend the Mid-Autumn Festival with you." Ning An was deeply moved and said, "I really want to get off the boat and not leave."

"Please don't do that!" Mr. Zhao's voice changed. "Uh uh... I mean, your brother will get mad."

"Oh, it's so unfair. He gets to choose the best girl in the imperial palace, but I only have Zhao Lang, and I have to act like a thief." Ning An was very depressed.

p.s. I have been researching information all day today, and I have only written one chapter so far. I don't think I can finish it if I continue writing, so I will make up for it tomorrow.
