The civil and military officials of the Manchu Dynasty had difficulty sleeping and eating, but Zuo Chen was much more relaxed.

As Zuo Chen expected, Sun Yongquan was investigated and dealt with by Shen Hong, who was in charge of the examination of merit in the Ministry of Officials, on the grounds that he had disturbed the Holy Hearing out of nothing. As the saying goes, once a person is a man, once a person is a prisoner.

Sun Yongquan panicked when he thought about it, his son was kicked and bedridden, and he broke his leg again, and now he is being dismissed and investigated. In the face of the punishment made by the officials, if you have the heart to defend it, you don't have the guts, once you annoy those court officials, who knows if you will have to worry about your life! said in his heart that it was because of the god-damnified Liu Zuochen that he made himself so embarrassed.

Wang Ping naturally didn't know about Zuo Chen and Zhang Youcai's gambling contract, and when he heard the news, he ran back to the house happily, and made a tirade about adding oil and vinegar. Everyone was smiling, but Zhang Youcai was sullen.

"Brother Cai, how can you ...... this good news" Wang Ping was a little puzzled.

Without waiting for Wang Ping to finish speaking, Zhang Youcai said angrily: "You only know this news? I knew three days ago, what to be happy about. ”

"How is that possible? This is news that only came out in the morning! Wang Ping's face was full of disbelief. Seeing that Zhang Youcai's expression didn't seem to be fake, he stared at everyone suspiciously, except for Zuo Chen, who was smiling and singing, Wu Jiang and the others were also confused.

"Childe, you already knew?" Wang Ping hesitated to speak, always feeling unbelievable.

Zuo Chen raised his head and looked at the sky, and said, "Three days ago, I pinched my fingers and calculated, Sun Yongquan had this catastrophe in his life, and he didn't want to fulfill it and the time was just right. "Unfathomable and profound appearance, if it weren't for his young age, it is estimated that the stalls on the street can fool many people.

Zhang Youcai didn't look at Zuo Chen's divine stick, and also raised his head to look at the sky. In the clear blue sky, the sun hung lazily on the white clouds, just glaring at Zhang Youcai inadvertently, which made his eyes moist.

"Uncle Zhang, are you blinded by the wind and sand?" Zuo Chen said with a hippie smile, how could he have a look of concern?

"Blown, my eyes were blown and I was in tears!" Zhang Youcai said softly, so powerless and frustrated.

Everyone is even more confused, where is the wind, what is the situation? It seems that the two of them are chattering, and what they say seems to mean something. Wang Ping, who has always been talking nonsense, also stared at the two of them dryly at this time, trying to see some way, but in vain he got nothing.

"We'll go to the 'Drunken Cloud Pavilion' to celebrate in a while, Uncle Zhang, it doesn't affect you to drink, right?" Zuo Chen's teasing words finally made everyone see a little problem, the relationship is that they are tired, and it must have something to do with Sun Yongquan's matter.

"Cut, I haven't heard of tears and taboos! Drink, why not? Zhang Youcai thought to himself, it's not me who spends money, and who knows if you can enjoy a good life like a few days.

Full of wine and food, everyone who had nothing to do went back to the house to practice and sleep, Zuo Chen and Zhang Youcai did not return home, and came to the shop that had been bought.

Wait a few days for the temperature to get warmer and then a craftsman will come to paint it. The wooden frame structure, the two-storey attic with a single courtyard, and the backyard are indeed very large, as Wang Ping said, and there are bungalows built on three sides around the attic.

The craftsmen of Century Manor will select a few and come to Kyoto with Zhang Kang, and they will make some objects in this backyard.

Zuo Chen was a little worried about the person who would manage this shop, but it was difficult to find a suitable shopkeeper. Wang Ping is okay, but he can't use others as the cow and horse, right? Taking a deep breath, I thought to myself, there must be a road before the car reaches the mountain. Thinking like this, I couldn't let go of it in my heart, after all, this shop has a pivotal position in the whole plan.

"Childe, do you have something on your mind?" Zhang Youcai saw that Zuo Chen was a little sullen.

Estimating that Zhang Youcai couldn't solve his own troubles, Zuo Chen still told him in detail about his troubles.

Zhang Youcai lowered his head, thought about it seriously for a while, and said: "The person who can help you a lot in Kyoto is Prince Qing, and it is estimated that you are embarrassed to talk to him about this kind of thing." I still remember the kind innkeeper No, the old man is an old resident of Kyoto, and he must know who is qualified for the position of shopkeeper. You see......"

Things often take a turn for the better after a sentence, as Zhang Youcai said, people who know the roots are often watched by others for a long time. Zuo Chen thought, talking about this kind of thing still has to go to Wang Ping. The maturity and stability brought by adults feel better, and they don't want to be talked about all over Kyoto, the son of the general is in business, although he doesn't care in his heart, he also has to consider what the prince said.

For the rest of the things, Zuo Chen has to think carefully about Li Ziqin. According to what his grandfather said before, Li Ziqin is a person who will be avenged, not to mention that his son did die at the hands of his father, how could he give up. As soon as the news of the imperial court's rectification of the court has passed, I don't know what moths will come up with to deal with Zuo Chen.

Li Ziqin has also been very distressed recently, not to mention lifting a stone and hitting himself in the foot, and several court officials with good ambitions have complained about him. I had nothing to do and took Sun Yongquan's affairs on my body, but I didn't get the credit and almost burned myself.

Li Ziqin, who was restless, threw the book on the table with hatred. This morning, after the court, he took him into the palace to see his daughter, the imperial concubine, but did not get the comfort of her daughter, and was counted out. What do you say that stealing chickens is not a recipe for rice, and it is not thoughtful enough to consider things, even if the concubine Niangniang is not my daughter Li Ziqin? How can you count your father like this! Thinking like this, Li Ziqin actually sat on pins and needles, got up and walked outside the house with his hands behind his back.

Thinking of his son who couldn't see his dead body, and thinking of Prince Qing's reconciliation, Li Ziqin felt very helpless. He never considered Li Shuang's mistakes, he also contributed to the family and wanted to remove the roadblocks for his eldest brother Li Hai, so what's wrong! Li Hai has been under the account of Prince Qing's eldest son Chen Kai for many years, and he has been pressed but he can't be promoted, but he doesn't have much real power from the military rank of the second rank, even he, a father, is anxious, let alone a sibling brother.

That Chen Xu is a-eater, he didn't have any merit after taking refuge in the Li Mansion eight years ago, no wonder Liu Shangwu didn't show any reluctance when he received the order from the Ministry of War, and this time he used Chen Xu to deal with that Liu Zuochen. The Kyoto Garrison Division, which has finally used the relationship arrangement, should also move its hands and feet. Thinking like this, Li Ziqin finally felt a little better in his heart, and let Liu Shangwu's former brother deal with his son, which was interesting to think about.

Li Ziqin, who was standing outside the house, felt the afternoon sun, I don't know if it was because of his mood, and felt that the sun was much warmer than before.

The steward hurried to Li Ziqin's side, bowed down and said respectfully: "Master, Lord Shen Hongshen of the Ministry of Officials is waiting in the front hall for a meeting. ”

"Hmm" Li Ziqin snorted in his nostrils, and without saying anything, he moved to the front hall. The steward behind him hatefully turned white like Li Ziqin, and said in his heart, you ate dumb Ding at noon, and you didn't say a word.

Shen Hong, who was sitting in the front hall, drank tea, his brows wrinkled together, I don't know if it was because the tea was bitter or because he was troubled by something in his heart.

"Ahem" Li Ziqin's coughing sound in front of the court reached Shen Hong's ears, making his wrinkled brows tighten a little. Shen Hong was very disgusted by Li Ziqin's pretentious posture, just like disgusted that his wife always likes to eat stinky tofu when dining.

"Lord Shen, what's the important matter?" Li Ziqin knew that if he wasn't in a hurry, he usually talked to each other every morning. Sudden or unspeakable things will come to the government for negotiation, and there are some things in the yamen that cannot be discussed.

"Dismissal and investigation of Sun Ziqin, the idea was that you helped me, that Wen Xuan Qing Si Zhao Shuliang is his aunt's cousin, this has always been unforgiving, from the Ministry of Officials Yamen has been messing with me, and it is not comfortable to eat lunch when I go home." Shen Hong said distressedly.

"Then Zhao Shuliang really doesn't know what to do, it won't be good for anyone to make trouble like this, although it is not the same as the two of us, we also have to consider the overall situation." Li Ziqin seemed to be crying out for Shen Hong, counting Zhao Shuliang. In fact, he has been exculpating himself. Obviously, as long as Sun Ziqin's beating of the sticks is not established, he Li Ziqin will not have to give the emperor an explanation for this matter.

"Press the gourd and get up, then Zhao Shuliang is in charge of the promotion, such a stalemate is not a good thing for our family, a few protégés you have cultivated with great difficulty, and the promotion is all in his hands." Shen Hong squinted at Li Ziqin, and said in his heart, just look at my jokes, be careful that your backyard is also on fire.

"You officials are still in the book, just watch him mess around in the yamen?" Li Ziqin also frowned.

As Shen Hong said just now, there are many harms and no benefits for each other. Unless Li Ziqin looks for Xin Zhongguo, the secretary of the ministry, and entrusts the necessary commitments, it may be alleviated.

"That old fox is with ......, he is a lord who can't afford to make a profit, and he has no interest in caring about your head and blood?" Shen Hong almost said that it was the same as you, but fortunately, he stopped in time.

Li Ziqin, who was thinking about his thoughts, didn't notice it, thinking that there were deep grievances with Na Xin Zhongguo in the past, and there were the same classes above the court and the same passers-by under the court. Thinking that Zhao Shuliang must have been instructed by him if he didn't give up, or a Sanpin Wenxuan Qing Minister, even if he had grievances in his heart, he would not be able to blatantly call out. Otherwise, why didn't Sun Yongquan jump out to defend him when he had an accident? It is obvious that it is all driven by factional interests, and the intention of taking advantage of the fire to rob is obvious.

"You also go back and think about it, see if there is a good way to alleviate it, and I will also think about it carefully." Li Ziqin picked up the teacup, put it to his lips and took a sip, and then gently put it on the table.

Shen Hong looked at Li Ziqin's expression, did not abandon himself, and felt slightly comforted in his heart. On the way out of Li's mansion, he finally hated Zuo Chen in his heart, it was that kid who caused trouble, and was favored by the emperor as if he was fine, and he hurt a group of ministers in the court, and was beaten hard by the emperor with his braids, and I don't know who else will be burned except Sun Yongquan.
