Chapter Fifteen: The Imperial Seal of the Blue Feather Guard

  A passionate and lingering kiss, Chen Zikun, this hot-blooded young man, couldn't bear such teasing, immediately his blood was boiling, he was itching to move, his mind went blank, subconsciously wanting to take further action, but didn't expect to be pushed away by Yao Yilei, who also closed the door with a swing of her hand.

  "I'm not just anyone, you can go back." Yao Yire said with her back against the door, her face red and her ears burning, actually hoping that Chen Zichen could break in.

  But Chen Zikun really went back with a humble and honest attitude, Yao Yilei leaned against the door gap to watch him leave, feeling both happy and lost in her heart.

  ……

  Miss Yao made a big fuss in the heavenly palace, and the Yao Gongguan also started to make trouble. In fact, his daughter drove away from home, and Yao Cizhang immediately received the news, but he didn't take it seriously at all, because this wasn't the first time. Every time she got into a tantrum, his daughter would drive to her aunt's house in Tianjin with the family property, and this time should be no exception.

  So Yao Cilang just made a phone call to the Tianjin side, asking them to send a car to meet halfway, and also sent several cars from his own side to escort her. He thought it would be good for his daughter to go to Tianjin to relax, but he didn't expect that after a few hours, he received reports one after another saying that Miss Yao hadn't gone to Tianjin at all!

  Didn't go to Tianjin, won't be kidnapped by bandits again? Shouldn't be, the bandits in the Beijing-Tianjin area have been cleared out, where are the bad guys? Yao Zicong left a thought and didn't report to the police, but instead sent someone to search around. Of course, they also went to the Ziguang Car Factory, but since they didn't see Miss Yao's car, they ignored it.

  The daughter has gone missing again, the wife cried until she became a tearful person, scolding her husband for driving their daughter to desperation. Yao Cilang was anxious and sleepless all night, until the next morning when the manager of the Beijing Restaurant called to complain that Ling'er had led people to smash their ballroom the previous night, causing heavy losses, and asked Yao Cilang to give an explanation.

  Yao Cizhang felt relieved upon hearing this, and readily agreed to compensate. He carefully inquired about the attire and appearance of the people who were with his daughter when she caused trouble. After a brief conversation, he hung up the phone and calmly told his wife: "I know where your daughter is."

  Madam was overjoyed and followed Yao Zicong onto the car, rushing straight to the Zi Guang Car Factory in Toufa Hutong inside Xuanwu Gate. As soon as they arrived at the entrance of the factory, Yao Zicong knew he had guessed correctly - his daughter's car was parked there, with many scratches on its body, apparently from last night's escapade.

  The wife also felt at ease, but when she saw the idle men squatting at the foot of the wall sunbathing and catching lice, her heart skipped a beat. When did her daughter get mixed up with this kind of person?

  The car stopped in front of the Zi Guang Car Factory, and the guard jumped down to open the door. Mr. and Mrs. Yao stepped out directly and entered the gate. Xue Ping Shun looked at his suit and tie, which was very impressive, and didn't dare to block their way. He followed behind them with a smile: "Sir, who are you looking for?"

  He burst into the backyard, a young man with his upper body bare, doing pull-ups on a tree branch. Seeing Yao Zicong and others enter, he jumped down to the ground and asked calmly: "What brings you here?"

  This was the first time Yao Zichang had seen the legendary Chen Zikun, what a handsome and elegant young man, with a face like jade, slender waist and broad back, under two sword-like eyebrows, his eyes were bright and sharp, majestic without being angry, this appearance, exactly like Zhao Zilong in the play!

  The wife stared at Chen Zikun without blinking, thinking to herself, "Could it be that my daughter has eloped with this young man?" But then again, she thought, "This young fellow is really handsome. If I were twenty years younger, my heart would still flutter."

  "Oh, I'm Yao, and my daughter Yao Yire is with you, right?" asked Yao Cizhang.

  The door of the west wing was pushed open, and Yao Yiren, rubbing her eyes, came out from inside in her sleepwear, seemingly not surprised to see her parents arriving.

  "Dad, Mom, you're here. Wait a minute, I'll go wash my face first." Yao Yilei said casually.

  "You wicked girl, you still don't know your mistake, come back with me." Yao Cilang shouted loudly, and the servant girls who came with him stepped forward to hold onto Miss Yao and dragged her outside.

  "I won't go back, I won't!" Yao Yile struggled desperately and begged Chen Zikun for help: "Dakunzi, save me!"

  Chen Zikun didn't move, not because he didn't dare to, but because he couldn't. When someone's parents come looking for their daughter, it's only natural. Let alone being an outsider, even if he were the real son-in-law, he wouldn't have the right to stop them.

  Yao Yilei cried out and struggled, but was still dragged away. Yao Cichang, on the other hand, was very composed and knew his daughter's temper. This matter had little to do with the car factory, so he coldly nodded and said: "Sorry for the trouble, I'll send someone to deliver my daughter's living expenses, goodbye."

  He turned around and left, Xiao Shunzi, who was woken up by Miss Yao's crying, got up and went out to take a look, and said in confusion: "Big Kunzi, why didn't you take action to rescue your sister?"

  Chen Zikun's heart skipped a beat, Miss Yao was deeply in love with him, although she wasn't his woman yet, but it was almost the same, if he couldn't protect his own daughter, what kind of man would he be?

  "Halt!" Chen Zikun thundered, his voice like a crack of thunder, scaring the maids and servants into releasing their grip. Miss Yao took advantage of the opportunity to run behind Chen Zikun and hide, making a face at Yao Cilang.

  Yao Cizhang's two hands shook with rage as he shouted: "What are you trying to do? Is there still a king's law or not?"

  Chen Zikun retorted: "Of course there is no king's law now, it's the Republic of China, and there is only the Constitution."

  Yao Cizhang was so choked with rage that he almost couldn't speak, and after a pause, he said: "I came to find my own daughter, which article of the constitution is this obstructing?"

  Chen Zikong said: "Excuse me, Director Yao, where is this place?"

  "This is Ziguangche Factory."

  "Alright, let me ask again, is Miss Lian already eighteen years old?"

  "It's full!" Yao Yile exclaimed.

  Yao Cizhang could only nod his head.

  Chen Zikong, seeing that the other party had taken the bait, said confidently: "As a high-ranking official in the cabinet, don't you know that private property is inviolable? You brought people to break into my house and kidnap an 18-year-old adult with full legal capacity. Isn't this against the law?"

  Yao Cizhang was speechless, thinking to himself that this young man's demeanor didn't seem like that of a laborer. However, as the Deputy Director of the government, he couldn't bear the loss of face from being tongue-tied by a young man, so he forcibly argued: "I came to find my own daughter, how did it become a kidnapping? Don't play word games with me, I must take her away today."

  As he spoke, two guards pulled out their pistols and tried to intimidate Chen Ziqin.

  Xiao Shunzi had been eyeing him suspiciously for a while and snuck into the room to grab Chen Zikun's two box guns. Seeing his opponent pull out a gun, he shouted loudly: "Catch!"

  Two box-shaped guns fell from the sky, with red silk on the gun handles shining like fire. Chen Zikun held a gun in his hand and easily loaded it onto his waistband, with the large and small machine heads open and emitting a fierce aura.

  "You dare to move in front of me? You're quite bold." Chen Zikong said with a cold smile.

  The two bodyguards didn't dare to move, they had heard of Chen Zikun's reputation. The fierce battle on the Yongding River, single-handedly killing over a hundred bandits, this skill was not something ordinary people could match. Playing with guns in front of him was basically equivalent to showing off big knives in front of Guan Gong.

  The situation took a drastic turn, and even the Deputy Director of the government was at a loss. Director Yao stomped his foot and asked his daughter, "Lelai, are you leaving or not?"

  "Don't go." Yao Yire hid behind Chen Zikun, tiptoed and rested her chin on his shoulder, making a face at Yao Cichang.

  Yao Cizhang's high blood pressure was about to act up again, and he said fiercely: "Fine, you won't leave, then never come home again."

  He turned around and left with a flick of his hand.

  Mrs. Yao sighed, looked at her daughter and turned around to leave as well.

  The guards, maids and old women all left the Ziguang Car Factory with a gloomy face.

  As he went out, he happened to meet a four-man sedan chair stopped at the gate of the car factory, with the curtain lifted halfway, and vaguely saw an old Qing dynasty official wearing a flower-shaped hat and a python robe with a jade belt coming out from inside. However, Yao Cilang, who was still in a fit of anger, did not pay attention to it.

  The air was filled with excitement as Ya Yilei suggested treating everyone to a hot pot dinner, and the carters immediately cheered in agreement. Just as they were getting rowdy, a Qing dynasty official appeared at the entrance, followed by several eunuchs with shaved heads and queues, and everyone suddenly fell silent.

  Ruan Jinshou, the eunuch in charge of the Imperial Household Department, arrived with an imperial edict from Emperor Xuantong to reward Chen Zikun and others.

  The little eunuch was holding a set of blue feathered guard official clothes, warm hat cool hat, robe trousers boots and all, and also a yellow horse jacket.

  "His Majesty has granted you a new appointment, Mr. Chen. From now on, you will be a sixth-grade blue feather guard." Ruan Jinshou said with a forced smile.

  "Thanks." Chen Zikong casually cupped his fists in a northerly direction and considered that a sufficient expression of gratitude.

  "There are also five horse jackets, which were bestowed by the emperor to those few young masters. The emperor said that he would often come to play with them in the future." Ruan Jinshou waved his hand, and a small eunuch presented five high-quality black satin horse jackets, making Baoqing, Xiaoshunzi and others so happy that their mouths were stretched wide open.

  After the reward, Ruan Jinshou refused to leave. Yao Yilei understood the situation and took out a checkbook from the Bank of Communications, wrote a number on it and handed it over: "Mr. Ruan, this is not enough to show respect, take it to buy tea."

  Ruan Jinshou then walked away with a smile on his face.

  "It's really embarrassing to have you spend more money," said Chen Zikun.

  Yao Yilei waved her hand generously: "Don't mention it, your business is my business, let's not be polite to each other."

  Xiao Shunzi chimed in: "Exactly, we're almost like family, no need to be polite."

  Chen Zikun's face turned red, but Yao Yilei seemed unaffected and said: "Right, we're almost like a family now. I'm planning to invest in the Purple Light Car Factory and make it the largest and best car factory in Beijing."

  Bao Qing said: "That's a good idea, let's get him five hundred foreign bicycles, absolutely the best in Beijing."

  Yao Yilei sneered, "It's almost the 20s and you're still taking rickshaws. It's so outdated! I've made up my mind to buy ten of the latest model Fords and we'll monopolize Beijing's car rental industry."

  Everyone looked at each other in dismay, Miss Yao was really bold, you know that cars cost tens of thousands of dollars each, and the gasoline they consume is also a huge expense, not to mention the training costs for drivers. According to her words, it would take at least 500,000 dollars to start such a car factory.
